Plans for the students co-op book ex-
change have been finally completed,
and from present indications, the ex-
change will open for business on Jan-
uary 25. When interviewed last night,
M. W. Welch, '17,,the executive chair-
man and originator of the scheme,
stated that he has completed the cata-
loguing and grading system, and that
all the shelving and various other par-
aphernalia had been installed in Mc-
Millan hall, where the exchange is to
be located. John P. Colden, '17, has
been appointed chairman of the cata-
loguing committee, and Fred Walter,
'17, has been placed in charge of the
operating department.
During the past week, the originat-
ors of the scheme have been engaged
in testing the campus sentiment, re-
garding the establishment of the ex-
change, and the general consensus of
opinion has been of a favorable nature.
W. C. Mullendore, '1fL, president of

terday that the exchange, if establish-
ed, will probably not onlycpave the
way for the founding of a co-op store
along the same lines as that which is
operated at Cornell, but will be a con-
siderable saving to students of all de-
partments at the present time..
Werner W. Schroeder, '16L, when
interviewed last night regarding the
proposition stated'that, as explained
to him, it appears very feasible, and
that he is in favor of seeing the plan
tried out at Michigan.
The plan was presented at the last
meeting of Triangles, engineering hon-
or society, and a vote of the members,
pledging their active cooperation, was
passed. The matter of endorsement is
scheduled to come up at the meetings
of a number of other campus and hon-
orary societies during the coming
week.
Some time during next week, a spe-
cial committee will make a tour of all
the fraternity and sorority houses in
town, and the details of the exchange
will be explained and a basis of coop-
eration in making the venture a suc-
cess sought.

Foot Curve
)AT HOUSE MAY MATERIALIZE
Yellow and blue poles driven
rough the ice of Argo pond yester-
y by members of the Union Boat
ib, marked out the shell racing
urse for interclass contests and for
e proposed future Varsity crew. The
idents layed out the regular English
nley course, one mile and 550 yards
ig, with one curve 1,500 feet long,
king what eastern critics declare
finest course for shell racing in
country.
['he students who oversaw the car-
ng out of the surveyors' plans for
course were W. L. Watson, '17E.
e-commodore of the Boat club, and.
uis B. Hyde, '16E. Those who as-
ted in transporting the 14 feet, four-
-four poles painted yellow with blue
ipes at the top, and who helped
ve the markers through the ice in-
he river bed, were Howard H. Phil-
3, '16E, Kemp S. Burge, '17, Ray-
Bnd M. Langly, '18E, Gordon B. Pear-{

he waterway starts near the bridge1
the finish is 200 feet from the
rer house. The start and entire
tch can be seen at the finish, inc
n nf the curve near the middle of

the course. Landmarks were placed,
on both shores facing each of the piles,
and buoys will be anchored along the
whole way as soon as the river is
clear of ice. The stretch is 250 feet
wide, built for three eight-oared shells
racing at the same time.
Active plans are under way for the
construction of a boat house near this
end of the pond. The Eastern Mich-
igan Edison company has signed prom-
ises to furnish the necessary land, and
part of the capital, probably $1,000.
A Detroit firm, managed by Michigan
alumni, is being solicited to furnish
lumber, and Intramural Director Floyd
Rowe has drawn up plans by which
the entire building can be built by
students sometime before -tne spring
regatta.
Director Rowe is also formulating
plans whereby class rowing contests:
will be held on the river, the contest-
ants being furnished with transporta-
tion, and awarded with class numerals,
in the case of the winning crews. Row-
ing apparatus will probably soon be
installed in Waterman gymnasium for
those who wish to train for work on
the river this sprin&,.
Cooperation with the Detroit Boat
club and Detroit alumni is being rap-
idly developed by Grover Farnsworth,
former coxswain of the Syracuse
eight, and grandson of a former regent
of this university. S
Available material for a crew is lat-
ent in men like J. Clark Giffin, '18E,
and George Middleditch, '18E, who;
have both been on championship crews
in Detroit. Men who are interestedt
should report to Director Floyd RoweI
or to Earl B. McKinley, '16, commo-
dore of the club. .

"Look, boys. Have you seen this?
It's Tom's latest." The speaker was
the M. E., and he was flaunting in his
hand an opened song sheet.
"Tom" is J. Thos. Spradling, as the
cover called him, But he is also known
as just plain "Tom." Its the famous
"Tom" who has made The Daily what
it has been ever since the days when
the wisest upper staff man was a cub
and took his first piece of copy down
to appease the linotype man, and to
stop the other things which aren't -err,
so-effective in print.
And it looks as though Tom has
struck off something this time that
isn't at its best in print-even though
it is perfectly proper--it's better when
you sing it- in fact, you want to sing
it. That's what the' "member of the
firm"-that's what Tom called the man
who wrote the music-wanted to do.
In fact, he wanted to sing it so bad
that he sang it well. Yes, competent
critics say so-the man who sings the
music down in the basement of a Main
street department store says so. He
ought to know. That's all he does all
the time he's there-sings songs all
the time, all kinds, by all kinds of
people.
"The piano-player has just left. You
don't play. Well, I don't know it very
well, but I'll try a little bit for you,"
he said. He began to sing in a low
voice, "I can't get these sharps," and
stopped half way down the page. "But,
it's a good little ballad, a fine little1
ballad. And you won't go wrong by
praising it. It's not mushy. It's good,
classic, and it's got a fine waltz tune
to it. It ought to go, and go well.
There are some good turns in the
music, too, here in the chorus for in-
stance. Sorry the piano-player isn't
here, but I'll tell you what. I'm going,
down to the Orpheum, and maybe I'll1
get the girl down there to play it."
She did play it, too. Before the sec-f
ond bar had been completed, a whistle 1

here and there showed that there were
people in the audience who wanted to
go to "Sunshine Isle."
Most of Tom's waking hours come
in the night, but his leisure is in the
afternoon-so he can appreciate sun-

shine just as much as other people ap-
preciate moonlight. Yes, "Sunshine
Isle" that's "where sweet roses bloom
all the while" and it's a "garden of
sweetest roses, gladness and joy 'all
the time," and anyone can go there for
"the fare is just one loving smile."
"I wrote it one afternoon," said Tom.
Tom is from the south, from Tennes-
see, so he says it in a dreamy sort of
way that sounds as though he were
on his island of sunshine, even while
he talks to you. "Y'see, I first had the
idea of 'Sunshine Valley.' Then I
thought of this. I think more of this
one, though. The music? It's a good
waltz," he said modestly. "The pub-
lishing firm is paying me for printing
it. They've got another one of mine
down there. I sent it along with this
one. They gave me my choice, and
I told them that I thought more of
tais one, and so the member of the firm
wrote the music for it. And if this
one goes, they're going to publish the
other one. Yes, I've written three or
four, but I think the most of this one.
They're going to feature this one all
week long. I was going to take these
down town tonight, but they didn't
come 'till late. So my wife said she'd
take some down this evening. Thanks.
I hope I make a million on this, his
eyes twinkled, but there was a slight
trembl> in his voice. "And if I do, I'll
buy you a nice, a nice"-"Buy him a
nice little typewriter, Tom," chiited in
the other linotype man.
"Yes, I'll buy you a nice little type-
writer. Aw no, I won't spend the mil-
lion too quick. I'll only give things
away to the fai ly, the immediate
family. Y'see, you're in the family.
From now on, I'll take you in."

Students at Princeton university
have been asked to contribute suffi-
cient money for one or more motor
ambulances, to be sent immediately
to the war zone. The request came in
connection with the general request
of Ambulance hospital committee of
New York, which has recently re-
ceived a cablegram from Europe ask-
ing for 50 motor ambulances for im-
mediate use.

Official announcement has been
made that there will be no Oxford-
Cambridge boat race this year on ac-
count of the war. The announcement
came as no surprise, as many of the
members of both crews have enlisted
in the British army. This year is the
second cancellation of the races since
their inauguration in 1829.

stamp out the practice.
"It will therefore be seen that the
board in control is not alone in its
effort to 'clean up' athletics in this
particular. As to the means, the board
of control, which grants athletic let-
ters, of course has the power to take
them away in flagrant cases of offen-
ses against the athletic rules, which
the Varsity men have to agree to obey.
"Such discipline has been applied
in some cases in the past. Further
than that, the board in control would
recommend to the faculty the disci-
plining of a student in a particularly
prominent case, if it felt the offense
justified such punishment. The'faculty
could of course dismiss a student if it
desired, in such a case.
"I have ho sympathy with the com-
petition of class teams with outside
or Ann Arbor teams not connected
with the university. The recent bas-
ketball game at Muskegon may be
cited as an example. I hope that we
can effectively. stamp out the prac-
tice, as it is harmful to Michigan ath-
letics."

"At the last meeting of the board on
December 5, the matter came up for
general and formal discussion, and it
was felt by all the members of the
board that this form of competition'
should be discontinued, as it detracts
from the dignity of the university, as
well as paving the way for more insid-
ions and particular evils.
"At this meeting the chairman of
