With the presentation of the one act
playlet, "The Bracelet," by the Comedy
club this evening in Sarah Caswell
Angell hall, a new venture is being
made in campus dramatics. This pro-
duction will be the first of a series
of monthly performances which the
university Thespians have planned to
give throughout the scholastic year.
The doors will be open at 8:00 o'clock
this evening, and the price of admis-
sion is 10 cents.
It has been the purpose of the club
to hold such entertainments for some
years past, but it has never been suc-
cessfully carried out until the present
management took, command. Under
the direction of assistant-manager L.
M. Cunningham, '16L, a cast of about
ten students has been drilling ener-
getically on the short play to be given
tonight. The new material tried out
has proven of exceptional merit this
fall.
The play portrays the domestic
troubles of a woman, who was so oc-
cupied that she did not retain the af-
fection of her husband, with subse-
quent entanglements and situations,
both humorous and semi-tragic. Al-
fred Sutro, a Russian, wrote the skit.
A selection entitled, "The Swan
Song/' written by another Russian,
named Anto Chekoff, will be rendered
by L. M. Cunningham, '16L, and Nor-
man Wassman, '18, as a complement to
the author of the playlet. It is a
character study. Harold Forsythe, '17E,
will accompany the two actors=.on the
violin..-
The'lead roles n "The Bracelet" are
to be taken by Ruberta Woodworth,
'17, in the cast of Mrs. Westren, and
Morrison Wood, '17, depicting the
character of Harvey Westren. The
work of Rowena Bastian, '18, in the
part of the governess, Miss Farren,
has attracted attention.
Invitations have been sent the pat-
rons of the Comedy club for the en-
tertainment.

FOOTBALL SMOKER BY DETROIT
ALUMNI TO CONCLUDE SEASON
Entire Gridiron Squad and Band Will
Be Present at Final Event
Tomorrow Night
Michigan's 1914 football season will
conclude oflicially tomorrow night at
8:00 o'clock, when the Detroit alumni
give the big annual football smoker
at the Detroit Board of Commerce.
Tickets for students at $1.00- a piece
are on sale at the Michigan Union and
at Huston Brothers.
The entire Varsity squad will be
present and also many former Wolver-
ine gridiron heroes. The varsity band
will play several selections. Michigan
songs, eats, smokes and speeches will
compose the rest of the program.
Those in charge of the affair hope to
make this year's smoker the biggest
event of this nature ever held in De-
troit. In former years the manage-
ment has been hampered by lack of
space but, owing to the size of the
Board of Commerce, a great many
more can be accommodated at tomor-
row's function than at any former
smoker.

The disappearance of the old steam
roller scoring machine has caused
Grantland Rice, sport writer and sport
poet, to write the following stanzas on
the difference between the old Michi-
gan teams and those of the later years:
I wandered to Ann Arbor, Ton, I went
the other day;
I made my way to Ferry field to see
the squad at play;
But non-; was there to greet me, Tom,

Each time this old bunch had the ball

And then-like some rare vision loom-

Tommy Atkins,
What has become of the English
flag? That is the question which is
now baffling members of the Cosmo-
politan club. And although the best
sleuths in the organization have been
warm on its trail for almost a week,
the whereatouts of Great Britain's na-
tional emblem has not been discover-
ed.
Several weeks ago the club pur-
chased a set of flags, including one for
each country represented in the club.
There were 26 pieces of beautiful
bunting. Yesterday when the flags
were 'unfolded to lend the university
authorities in preparation fQr the
reception to foreign students, 'the
British flag was conspicuous by its
absence. Consternation and dismay
were rife in the usually peaceful ranka
of the society.
Many there were who believed that
a conspiracy against the English- was
on foot, and that the the smouldering
fire of war and strife had been fanned
to flames. Exhaustive probing has not
yet revealed the leaders of this anti-
English sentiment. But hist! There{
are several clues. According to the
toreign hawkshaws. the culprits will
be apprehended in a very short time.
That punishment will be meted out to
them in no mild measures, is the pre-
diction of the officers of the Cosmopoli-
tan club, for sacred neutrality has
been violated.

to hold the regular meeting definitely
decided.
Junior engineers took the first of-
ficialaction for the revival of the jun-
ior hQp to the roll of Michigan's social
events, in their assembly yesterday.
The class passed a resolution stating
that it was in favor of a democratic
hop managed by the junior classes.
Several campus societies have also
signified their intention of joining for-
ces to bring back the big affair.
s The class authorized its social com-
mittee, of which R. C. Jeters is chair-
man, to do whatever it could to bring
back the function. Jeters said last
night that his committee would cor-
respond with students in other univer-
sities on the affair. The committee
intends drawing up a complete plan
to submit to the faculty.
Junior lits have not taken action as
yet in any class meeting, but George
McMahon, class president, has said
that he would bring the matter to the
attention of the class at the next meet-
ing.
Many honor societies on the campus
have declared themselves in support of
the project. Most of these have
chosen one of their number to rep-
resent them on a committee of all the
societies, which will consider ways and
means for bringing about the return
of the junior hop. The junior engi-
neers committee will meet this com-
mittee, and both will cooperate.
The junior hqp was abolished .by
the faculty two years ago. The im-
mediate occasion for this action was
