Ann Arbor saw the close of one of
the most successful annual meetings
of the Michigan Engineering society
yesterday. In respect to both attend-
ance and work accomplished, the con-
vention ranked among the best on the
records of the society.
The last formal meeting of the soci-
ety was held yesterday morning. What
proved to be the best paper of the ses-
sions, was delivered by L. G. Carpen-
ter, of Denver, Colorado. Mr. Carpen-
ter, who is regarded as one of the men
best acquainted with the legal side of
engineering in this country, spoke op,
"Interstate Water Questions."
Through the courtesy of the Eastern
Michigan Edison company, the engi-
neers were taken on a trip of inspec-
tion yesterday afternoon. Among the
points inspected were the Barton and
Argo dams and power houses, and the
university sanitary experiment station.
No decision was reached as to the
next meeting place of the society, De-
troit and Grand Rapids seeking to en-
tertain the engineers.
Several boxes of books, which are
the exchanges between the Michigan
society and those of other states, have
been left for students in the corridor
of the third floor of the new engineer-
ing building. Those who desire the
books may have them, as long as they
last.

Prof. T. C. Trueblood's class in
Shakespearean reading will offer a
public recital of the, "Comedy of Er-
rors," in Sarah Caswell Angell hall at
8:00 o'clock tonight. The cast will be
changed every scene so as to include
all members of the two sections of 40

will be free, and those who attend are
requested to be in their seats by 8:00

CRACK QUAKER RUNNER RULED
INELIGIBLE FOR COMPETITION
"Ted" Meredith, the Quaker's sen-
sational middle distance runner, has
been declared ineligible for college
competition, and will probably be un-
able to compete against Michigan in
the relay race at Buffalo, February 5.
Meredith ran under the colors of an
independent club during the last col-
lege term, thus rendering himself in-
eligible to compete with the Pennsyl-
vania track team for the remainder
of the year. His loss will be a severe
blow to the Quakers, for the presence
of the Olympic star would have given
them the shade over the Wolverine
quartet.
Play in Bridge Tournament Postponed
Contestants in the Union bridge
tournament will hold no pre-exam
round, but will resume play on the
first Friday after the hop. X R. Mc-
Call, '16L, who is at the head of the
tourney, will permit- a few more en-
tries, and will give the new men op-
portunity to make up for the three
rounds already finished.
Radical changes in the titles of the
various divisions of the University of
Michigan were made yesterday by the
board of regents, in an enactment des-
ignating the style to be used by the
university publications hereafter.
The literary department has been
changed to the college of literature,
science and the arts; the engineering
department, to the college of engineer-
ing; the pharmacy .department, to the
college of pharmacy; the dental, to the
college of dental surgery. The medical,
homeopath, law and graduate depart-
ments will be known as the schools
of medicine, homeopathy, law and the
graduate school respectively.
This change is brought about in or-
der to standardize the nomenclature,
in accordance with the last annual re-
port of the Carnegie foundation for
the advancement of education.
Rifle Team holds Final Tryouts Today
The final tryouts before the rifle
team is picked for tomorrow's match
will be held this afternoon, and the
team will be selected on the showing
of the 18 men on the squad. The team
will consist of the 10 men who have
the highest average for the last week.
OPERA BASSO TO FURNISH MUSIC
Speakers for the "Flying Squadron"
meetings today are Dr. Ira Landrith,
Nashville, Tennessee; Dr. Wilbur F.
Sheridan, Evanston, Illinois, and Dr.
Carolyn Geisel, Battle Creek.
Dr. Landrith is president of Ward-
Belmont, the largest college for wom-
en in the south. He was president of
the recent international convention of
the Y. M. C. A.
Dr. Sheridan is general secretary of
the Epworth League society of the
Methodist church. He is in demand as
a lecturer at colleges and universities,
especially in the south and east.
Dr. Geisel is one of the leading au-
thorities at Battle Creek Sanitarium.
She has studied at Petrograd, Russia,
and in Pasteur Institute, Paris. She
spends considerable time lecturing
throughout the state on sex hygiene
and other medical subjects.
Mr. and Mrs. Frederick Butler, of
New York, are with this team to take
charge of the music. Mr. Butler was
formerly a leading basso with the Al-
ice Neilson Opera company.
Meetings will be held at the First
Presbyterian church at 2:30 o'clock
and at 7:30 o'clock.
Offer Course in Practical Journal~is
Practical journalism will be the sub-
ject of a course to be given next sem-
ester by Mr. L.L.Bryson, of the rhetoric
department. The course is intended
primarily for students who are inter-
ested in journalism, and who intend,
to follow up this line of work. It will
deal with the actual problems encoun-
tered in the newspaper work. The
class will be designated as course 14,
and will be given three hours a week.
Under the auspices of the university'
extension lecture service, seven lec-
tures will be given tonight. Prof. E.
C. Goddard, of the law department, will
speak at Bronson on, "The Trained
Man;" Prof. R. W. Hegner will talk

ATHLETIC BA9NQUET
Coach Yost, Director Bartelme, Capt.
Cochran and Judge Murfin
Will Attend
HIGH SCHOOL ATHLETES INVITED
Coach Fielding H. Yost, Captain
"Bill" Cochran, Athletic Director Phil-
ip G. Bartelme and Judge James Mur-
fin, of Detroit, are all scheduled to
speak at the banquet to be given in
Grand Rapids next Thursday night by
the Western Michigan alumni assoct-
ation of the University of Michigan, to
the 1914 football teams of the Grand
Rapids and Muskegon high schools.
An attempt is also being made to
secure several members of the Michi-
gan Varsity to attend the banquet,
which promises. to be the biggest event
of its kind ever held 'in this state.
Coaches Upton, Mitchel, Holloway and
Gudelsky, will be on hand with their
respective teams, while many business
men have already signified their in-
tention of attending the affair.
Members of the alumni association
hope that the banquet will draw the
schools in the western part of the state
into a closer and more friendly re-
lation than has.existed during the past
few years. The banquet will be held
in the rooms of the Peninsular club,
and is being financed entirely by the
Western Michigan alumni association,
which has its headquarters in Grand
Rapids.
School Course Open to All Students
Contrary to general opinion, Prof.
A. S. Whitney's course in public school
administration is not confined to those
expecting to teach. The course, which
will be started next semester, is in-
tended for all students interested in
school work of any kind, and especial-
ly for those who intend entering pub-
lic life.
Members of the Junior hop commit-
tee were gratified by the fact that
more than 90 men turned out last night
to attend the acquaintanceship smok-
er which they had arranged. After
speeches by several members of the
general committee, those present met
one another and exchanged dances.
Seven groups to secure booths were
formed, each consisting of 12 men.
Besides taking booths, they will pro-
vide their own entertainments for the
Saturday following the hop.
R. C. Jeter, '16E, explained that the
committee had to do with $1250 less
than had been given to their predeces-
sors. The reduction in -the admission
price from $7.00 to $5.00 accounts for
$600. The revenue from spectators
netted $250 in the past. Fraternities
have paid to former committees $400
toward the decorations of their booths,
which used to be done in individual
colors.
Chairman Jeter also announced that
Dean Myra B. Jordan had informed
him that she would secure rooms for
the guests of unaffiliated students in
the Women's League houses.
H. A. Lichtig, '16M, presided at the
meeting and called on L. M. Bruch,
'16L, T. D. Weaver, '16E, C. E. Stryker,
'16E, J. B. Angell, '16, D. R. Ballentine,
'16, and W. C. Mullendore, '16L.
Only a few more tickets remain, and
these may be'secured beginning today,
by calling Bruch at 371.
UNION ANNOUNCES CHAPARONS

Prof. John R. Brumm and Mrs.
Brumm, and Mr. and Mrs. Otto Hans
will act as chaperons at the member-
ship dance at the Union from 9:00 to
12:00 o'clock, tomorrow night. The
members of the committee in charge
are: Burton C. Budd, '15E, Elliot W.
Bisbee, '16, E. R. Borcherdt, 17, and
Cyril Talbot, '17.

day nights during the examination
weeks, and tickets will go on sale at
50 cents each for members, at the club-
house counter, on the Thursdays pre-
ceding the parties.
