EDIT MARCH GARGOYLE
WILL TAKE STND
ON HOP QUESTION
Several Classes Will Soon Determine
Their Attitude On This
Subject
FUNDS MIGH[T GO TO BELGIANS
Don Smith, '16E, who has been ac-
tive in. the movement to restore the
J-Hop, said, last night that he was
strongly in favor of devoting the pro-
ceeds from the Junior hop, should
there be one, to the relief of the' Bel-
gian war sufferers. George McMahon,
'16, who has been playing an equal
part in the activity looking toward
the re-instatement of the hop, could
not be reached last night, but since he
is on the local Belgian Relief Fund
committee, it was thought last night
that he would endorse Smith in his
stand.
Senior and junior homeops, senior
and soph pharmics and junior medics
will meet today to decide whether to
authorize their presidents to sign the
petition for the Junior hop. Junior
and fresh lits, and soph medics will
meet Friday. Though the hop advo-
cates were unable to get into connec-
tion with them, last night, the junior
laws, soph homeops, fresh medics and
fresh pharmics, will probably meet
before the end of the week.
All the" other classes which have
considered the matter in classmeet-
ings have approved the plans which
have been advahced. Promoters of
the J-Hop agitation have received as-
surances that the presidents of the
following classes are ready to sign
their petition: Senior and soph lits,
senior, junior and fresh engineers,
senior and fresh laws, senior medics,
all the dent classes, all the architects,
junior pharmics and fresh homeops.
After all the classes have taken ac-
tion on the communications which
were sent out by Don Smith, '16E,
and George McMahon, '16, last week,
a meeting of all the junior presidents
will be held to draught the petition in
its final form. The advice of the sen-
ate council's committee on student af-
fairs will be sought before the final
details are included, according to a
statement by one of the junior presi-
dents last night.
APPOINT BALLENTINE MANAGER
Will Serve As New Read of Glee and
Mandolin Clubs
David ' . Ballentine, '16, has -been
appointed to manage the combined
musical clubs for the remainder of the
1914-1915 season. Ballentine succeeds
Adna Johnson, '16L, who was recently
elected to fill the vacancy caused by
the resignation of W. M. Shafer, '16.
In reference to the proposed trip for
the musical clubs during the Christmas
vacation, Ballentine refused to make
a definite statement, although assuring
the fact that there will be a trip.
LEWNRI ALLEN ANiU A LBERT
LINDQUEST WILL TAKE PART
Both Were Studying in Paris at Time
War Broke Out, Then Came
To Ann Arbor
Michigan's concert for the benefit
of the Belgians, which was to have
been given before Christmas, has been
postponed to January 8, on account
of the number of entertainments be-
fore vacation. The concert will be
given in Hill auditorium, and will not
conflict with any of the other projects
for the relief of the Belgians.
Miss Leonora Allen and Albert Lind-
quest, both of the school of music,
will be the singers appearing on the
program. Both singers are studying
here through an accidental meeting in
Paris with Mr. Theodore Harrison,
head of the vocal department of the
school of music. Lindquest and Miss
Allen were studying in Paris when
the war broke out, and from there
went to London. While in London,
both decided to come to Ann Arbor.
Miss Allen made her debut at the
age of 18 with the Chicago Grand
Opera company, singing the part of
Juliet in' "Romeo and Juliet." Be-
fore this, she had studied but six
months. For one season she was the'
leading soprano in the Spring Maid
company. Although Miss Allen has
sung in both grand and light opera,
she has chosen the concert field, and
has appeared in about 80 concerts with
the Minneapolis Symphony Orchestra,
and has sung on a great many pro-
grams of the Chicago Symphony Or-
chestra. Miss Allen now has the rep-
utation of being one of the most com-
petent oratorio singers in the United
States. Before coming to Ann Arbor,
she was the highest paid church so-
prano in Chicago.!
Glenn Dillard Gunn, musical critic
of the Chicago Tribune, declared that
Albert Lindquest "is undoubtedly
America's greatest young tenor." Lind-
quest was discovered as a singer by
Bonci, the Italian tenor, who heard
Lindquest singing on the porch of

LAUDS WORK OF MEN IN CAST
Show Will Be Presented Tomorrow
and Saturday Nights in Univer-
sity Hall
"Everything is ready for the pro-
duction of the annual play by the
Oratorical associati'on tomorrow and
Saturday nights, in University hall.
'A Curious Mishap,' is the name of the
play, and is by Carlo Goldoni, one of
Italy's most famous playwrights. The
cast has worked hard this year in re-
hearsing the lines, and prospects were
never better for a first class perform-
ance by this association." These were
the comments of Prof. Richard D. T.
1ollister, of the oratory department,
director of the play, when interviewed'
yesterday.
The action takes place in Holland,
and the properties which will be used
are typical of that country. The cos-
tumes arrived yesterday, and will be
used in the final dress rehearsal of
the play tonight. They represent the
styles worn in Holland in the 17th
and 18th centuries, with the exception
of two which are of the rich'fashion,
worn in France in the times of Louis
XIV.
Last year the oratorical association
purchased curtains especially made
to fit the platform of university hall,
which will be used again, this year, to
box it in. Workmen have been en-
gaged in installing a special lighting
system for the play.
Professor Hollister, who has been
in charge of the rehearsals, has ex-
pressed his appreciation of the efforts
the members have put forth. Last
night he said, "They have worked hard
and conscientiously many hours every
day since they were chosen and every
one of them has reached a high de-
gree of proficiency in his part. The
cast merits a general campus appre-
ciaiion for the fine work it has accom-
plished."
Tickets for the play went on sale
yesterday and will continue today and

FORM CO-M-MITTE
TO CONSER YE WORK
ORGANIZE JOINT ASSOCIATION
Churches Cooperate for Promoton of
Religious Work
As an aid to a greater efficiency in
the promotion of the religious work In
Ann Arbor, and especially among uni-
versity students, the local student pas-
tors of the Methodist, Presbyterian,
Baptist, Congregational and Christian
churches, in conjunction with the sec-
retaries of the university Y. M. C. A.,
have formed a cooperative association.
This association will have offices in
McMillan hall, the Presbyterian head-
quarters, for the present, but after
the completion of the new Y. M. C. A.
building, permanent headquarters will
be installed there. The association
will have one of its members in com-
plete charge of each department of
local religious work and he will have
full charge of the administration of
that work for all the religious in-
stitutions concerned.
By this means it is hoped that more
efficient methods indy be adopted. Va-
rious committees of the churches and
the "Y" will work as heretofore, but
they will all work under the direction
of a single leader.
Arrest Foreman of University Grounds
Peter O'Toole, foreman of the- uni-
versity grounds, was arrested Tues-
day night on the charge of assault
and battery, on complaint of his wife,
Mrs. Annie O'Toole, who charged that
he attempted to choke her. O'Toole
was released on bail of $25. The case
will be tried Monday morning.

DUPLICATE POLICY
Will Bring Again Three Plays of High
Repute to City; "Yello
Jacket" First
LECTURES BEGIN AFTER JAN. 1
Continuing its policy of last year,
the Drama League of Ann Arbor will
bring three plays of national repute
to the city during- the coming season.
The dramas will be of even higher cal-
ibre than those of the past year.
The first to appear will be "Yellow
Jacket," a novel representation of the
theatrical of the Chinese stage, at a
date to be announced later. The play
is one of Frohman's production, and
is one of the few dramas, written by
American authors, which was suc-
cessful in London. The names of the
two other attractions will not be giv-
en out until later in the year.
The guaranteeing of these produc-
tions is now the big task on the hands
of the League. A campaign to raise
the guarantees will start next Wed-
nesday, It is hoped that, by the pre-
senting of high grade performances,
the League membership will be added
to, and therole of the affiliatedi, lubs'
will be materially increased.
A series of lectures, to be enumerat-
ed later, will be conducted y the
League after January 1. The subjects
to be discussed will deal with drmat-

Web and Flange, senior engineer
society, will hold a dinner at the Union
at 6:00 o'clock tonight. Prof. H. G.

Senator Robert M. LaFollette, of
Wisconsin, is making a speaking tour,
of the middle west and the south for'
the couple of weeks preceeding the
opening of Congress. The dates are
principally limited to universities, and
Michigan will hear him on Monday
night at Hill auditorium.
Last Monday he spoke at the Uni-
versity of Illinois, and reports from
that place say that he had a record
breaking crowd, which received his
speech well.
His subject for next Monday night
will be "Representative Government."
Tickets for the LaFollette lecture
will go on sale today, at the box office
of University hall, and by students on
the campus. The admission is 25
cents. A block of seats will be re-
served for the members of the Ora-

1918 LITS SMOKE PEACE PIK'E'
Assemble at First Event of Year This
Evening at Union
Fresh lits will smoke the "pipe of
peace" for the first time this year, at
a smoker to be given at 7:30 o'clock
tonight, at the Union. Prof. Robert
E. Bunker, of the law department, and
Prof. C. H. Van Tyne, of the history
department, will represent the facul-
ty on the list of speakers. Carrol B.
Haff, '13-'15L, will inject "pep" into
the yearlings with a short speech.
Fisher's orchestra will play.
As the primary step in conserving
the results of the recent "Mobilization"
campaign, which was promoted on the
campus by the university Y. M. C. A.,
a committee of 100 men, composed
for the most part of the leaders in the
campaign, has been organized. This
committee will endeavor to get in
touch with all those students who man-
ifested an interest in the work which
the campaign sought to present to the
Michigan campus.
After having reached these men, who
number between 500 and 600, this
larger group will be formed into a
committee of the whole, and each
member will be given the names of
five or more students on the campus,
whose acquaintance he will be expect-
ed to make. This larger committee
will also present the matter of church
attendance and affiliation to every man
on the campus, and by this means it
is expected that local church mem-
berships will be largely augmented
within the coming year.
So far as possible, the -students who
are to act as committeemen in this
project, will be arranged according to
their church preference, and as an
aid to them in their work, they will
be assigned as far as circumstances
permit, students of their own particu-
lar denomination.
Floyd A. Nagler, grad., will act as
general chairman of this conservation
work. He will be assisted by a num-
ber of sub-chairmen who will be ap-
pointed at a meeting to be held next
week.

As an innovation of this year, three M
"junior circles," composed of young ci
people, have been organized. They, w
come under the province of the educa- G
tional department, of the League. Miss p.
Hope Conklin, chairman of the "junior ei
soon
circle" department, has requested that
those interested in this branch, will
notify her at 1108 Hill street.+
