with 18 all "A" students.
The class of 1915 carries off the
scholastic honors with 10 representa-
tives, followed by the freshmen with
eight, the sophomores with five, and
the juniors trailing along in last place
with three. Eight of the 26 came to
the university with advanced standing
from other institutions, mainly normal
colleges.

As a result of the student council's
action in abolishing its "polic6 duty,"
a definition of the extent of this step
is to be made by this body to the sen-
ate council. H. M. Lacy, '15, presi-
dent of the student council is now pre-
paring a statement of this matter
which will be presented to Dean Henry
M. Bates, of the Law School, within a
few days.
After the demonstration which fol-
lowed "Joe" Reinger's scheme to have
Hughitt and Maulbetsch "throw" the
Cornell game, the student council of-
ficially altered its views as to the
course it should pursue in regard to
student riots., A statement of this ac-
tion was made in a letter to the edi-
tor of The Michigan Daily, dated No-
vember 12, 1914.

Other duties of the council are not
affected by this change. In order to
further secure the support of the stu-
dent body, councilmen are consider-
ing the advisability of conducting a
publicity campaign, so that the func-
tions of the council will be better un-

FAMOUS SCHOLARS APPEAR AT
BANQUET OF COSMOPOLITANS
Dr. Angell, Sir Bose, Prof. Anesaki
and Dr. Mez Form Quartet
of Distinguished Men
Probably no more representative
group of world educators or scholars
have gathered about one board than
were present at the ninth annual ban-
quet of the Cosmopolitan club held
last evening at Newberry hall. Among;
the men who talked, bringing out one
theme-cosmopolitanism-were Pres-
ident-Emeritus James B. Angell, Sir
J. C. Bose of the University of Cal-
cutta, Professor M. Anesaki of the Im-
perial university, Tokio and Dr. John
Mez, president of the International
Federation of Students of which the
local Cosmopolitan club is a branch.
Prof. M. Anesaki drew a significant
moral from the friendly relations
which have sprung up between the
Russian and the Japanese, since the
Russo-Jap conflict. Sir Bose traced
the beginning of cosmopolitanism from
the early Indian universities. Presi-
dent-Emeritus Angell, the first speak-
er, expressed his joy that although'
many foreign nations were at war
across the seas, their representatives
at Michigan were gathered peacefully
under one roof and at one table. Pres-
ident Harry B. Hutchins was present
at the dinner.
Junior Zits Nominate Two Councilmen
At a meeting of the junior lits yes-
terday afternoon, Lawrence S. Roehm,I
'16, ind Wilson M. Shafer, '16,' were
nominated by their class for student
councilmen. The elections will take
place on next Tuesday afternoon. I
Tickets for the Comedy club's sec-
ond presentation of "Pomander Walk,"
by L. N. Parker, to'be given Tuesday
night at the Whitney theater, will go
on sale at 1:00 o'clock this afternoon
at Wahr's book store. The entire first
floor and balcony will be reserved. As
Tuesday night's production is that
which corresponds to the performance
last year of "The Scarecrow," which
drew a packed house, it is expected
that the major portion of the seats
will be sold before the store closes at
6:00 o'clock.
Members of the club are unwilling
to rest on their oars, and are of the
opinion that there are a few kinks
that must be ironed out before Tues-
day night. Consequently the entire cast
will rehearse every night for the rest
of the week and Monday afternoon and
evening.
Hockey Teams to Start Second Round
Interclass hockey has progressed in-
to the second round and four games
have been played on a schedule com-
prising about twice that many, each
team having been in action at least
once. As' a result of the work so far
done, the science team looms up as
the strongest championship contend-
er, with the combined senior and fresh
lit, and the soph engineer teams as
Triangle club of Princeton, the Hasty
Pudding club of Harvard and the Co,
lumbia club, of New York. He is a
late director of the American Academy
of Dramatic Arts, of New York.
Mr. Sanger has'written that he will
arrive on Sunday, and will spend sev-
eral days here conferring with K. S.
Baxter, '15, general chairman of the
opera.1
The candidates for the cast, who1
have already received parts will have
tryouts Monday. The chorus will alsoc
practice on Monday. A list of those
still eligible is posted at the Union.,
The exact time of these tryouts will
be announced later.
Y. M. C. A. TO GIVE DINNER
TO SECURE FILIAL RELATIONS,
As an aid to the promotion of bet-
ter relations between fathers and sons,
the city Y. M. C. A. will hold a banquet
tonight at 6:00 o'clock at the associa-
tion building. The diners will be ad-
dressed by several prominent speak-
ers among whom will be the Rev.
Ames Maywood, of Jackson. An effort
is being made to secure a representa-
tive of the university faculty to ad-
dress the gathering.
PROSPECTIVE ARCHITECTS MAY
HAVE TO TAKE EXAMINATIONS
With the object of introducing legis-
lation which would make compulsory
the examination of prospective archi-
tects in the state of Michigan, the
Michigan State Architectural associa-
tion held a convention in Ann Arbor
during the last examination week and
authorized the drawing up of a bill to
be presented to the' state legislature.
More than forty architects from va-
rious cities in the state were in attend-
ance and during their stay here an ex-
hibition of the work of the local col-
lege of architecture was held.
