Lee, Mr. E. Riebel, and Mr. L. C. Douglass on Program 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. WANT HOP RE[ VVE Third Year Class Passes Resolution Favoring Reinstatement of Former Function crossed. 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, and gone was left to know the old attack; With Weeks and Longmant at his side -'twas fifty yards or, so Each time this old bunch had the ball a few short years ago, And then-like some rare vision loom- ing faintly through the haze- I saw the Wolverine machine of now long-vanished days; McGugin, Hammond, Reinschild, with Sweeley. White and Snow- I wish we'd had J. Harvard, Tom, a few short years ago. Here's One On 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. 250 Students Will Visit Factories at Wyandotte, Sibley and Detroit SHOUTLID SFCURE TICKETS TODAY More than 25t, students in Ch.

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 (Continued on page 6) 11 ADVISE MEN TO STUDY RUSSIA BECAUSE OF TRADE RELATIONS Leonard B.
