Those who have ability along vaudeville lines are asked to appear within the next two weeks. The first singing tryouts for the chorus are scheduled for 7:15 tomor- row night. Earl Moore, head of the organ department of the school of music, and writer of the music for sev- eral former productions, will judge the candidates. By the end of the week, dull cast parts will be distributed to the successful men, and all lyrics, lines. und angs wll he arned by March 1, when the regular rehearsa will com- mence. Ii Cornell, professional scenery man for B. C( Whitney, was in Ann Arbor Monday, and will make complete plans for entirely new scenery. He will design a model for the second act, which has a setting laid at the board walk of Atlantic City. Several unique electrical features will make this scene spectacular. Director Sanger took a copy of the book with him to New York City, and will effect a complete change of the setting of the first act, which was to be laid in a New York beauty parlor. Mr., Cornell will then produce a model of it.: At a meeting of prospective writers of next year's opera at the Union last night, 12 men appeared. The men were instructed to write a synopsis of the, play, give the method with which they expect to work out their ideas, and sub- mit it about March 1. The director will go over each man's work with him, and offer suggestions and changes. The completed copy will be called for about May 1. It was also suggested that some lines or situations refer to local affairs, provided that none of: them be of such a character as could not be understood by an outside audi- ence: The costumes for the opera will probably be furnished by the Ames company, of New York, the largest cos- tumers there. HOLD THOUTS FOR RELAYTEAM TODAYT Coach Farrell to Time Every Man Who Expect to Compete Against Tiger's Quartet Saturday UFER FOUND ELIGIBLE; SCARE COMES FROM CLERICAL ERROR ligh-Jumpers and Pole-Vaulters Have Workout Yesterday; Make No Records Tryouts for the relay team which will oppose the best that Keene Fitz- patrick can send to Ann Arbor from Princeton, will be held this afternoon n Waterman gym, Coach Farrell's stop watch being the opponent of every man who expects to run against the Tiger relay quartet when it journeys, here Saturday. ,, 'Ufer appeared at the gym yesterday afternoon, and brought with him the fact that he will be eligible for compe- tition this year, a clerical error alone being responsible for his recent scare. In upholding the honors of Michigan in the distance and middle distance events, however, he will be without the assistance of Murphy and Lynch, both of whom, according to latest reports, will be unable to arrange their eligibil- ity. The work scheduled for this after- noon will be in the form of half mile jaunts around the track for all aspir- ants for the relay team which meets Princeton Saturday. The tryouts are not limited to this afternoon, as those who cannot appear today will be allowed to runtomorrow. As the men report to Coach Farrell, they will be' timed in their race around the oval, and by Friday the selection of the team will be made. Waterbury and Berray worked at the jumping standards early yesterday af- ternoon, the honors seeming to be about evenly divided, while the bar was below five feet six inches, and after the pair had worked above that point, the high-jumpers vacated the floor in favor of Ferris and Wilson, who took to pole-vaulting. Nothing phenomenal happened in this telit, Wilson being easily able to top the bar at its highest point. Because the standards are not high enough no re- markable feats could be performed.; Lapsley worked out ii the dashes, and easily led his field, in which, how- ever, there were no stars pitted against him. Corbin managed to take the tape in two heats, in which he op- posed the freshman sprinters, Robin- son not running in these trials. ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION BOARD* ISCUSSES CHANGES IN RULES Propose That Elections Follow First Semester to Ascertain Matter of Eligibility Discussion of proposed changes in the rules governing the annual mid- term elections to the board of directors of the athletic association, featured the meeting of the directorate yesterday afternoon. Definite action was post- poned until a future meeting, at which time a committee authorized to conft with representatives of the faculty eli- gibility board, will bring in its report. The proposed alterations in the rul- es will probably result in a change in the time of the election. Under the present regulations the balloting is held prior to the semester examina- tions. It is proposed that the election come after the examinations, in order that eligibility questions can be settled before the candidates are voted on. Varsity Track Manager W. B. Palmer was.chosen as the chairman of the directorate yesterday afternoon, and by virtue of his chairmanship is the president of the athletic associa- Lion. Varsity Football Manager Boyd Compton, appointed yesterday to fill the vacancy on the board, took his seat for the first time at the meeting. If Put Into Effect, Representatives Meet to Draw Up Definite Detailed Plans. to CLLEGE ELECTION E .K. Athletic Association Board Gives Its Approval to General Campus Seheme for Choice of Officers PUBLICATION BOARD'S ACTION WILL DECIDE FINAL ADOPTION Favorable action taken yesterday by the board of directors of the athletic association gave further impetus to the movement fostered by the Michi- gan Union directorate, looking to the establishment of a general campus Election Day, at which time officers for the Union, the athletic association and the board in control of student Cast publications are to be elected. The directors went on record as fa- vorable to the general plan advanced of "Pomander Walk" Successfully Steps From Amateur Fields to Professional Drama by the Union officers. This plan calls for the handling of a single general election, at which time all the stu- dent officers in the three organizations shall be selected. Action by the publication board alone remains to make the proposed Election Day a certainty. Prof. Fred N. Scott, chairmnan of the board, and Prof. Gordon Stoner, the -treasurer, stated last night that the board would consider the proposition if brought be- fore it. If the board in control favors the plan, it is expected that representatives from each of the three organizations will be appointed for the purpose of drawing up detailed plans for the Election Day. It is stated to be prob- able that the election would come sometime late in May. MICHIGAN RIFLE TEAM SCORES 6,099 OUT OF POSSIBLE 8,000 Members Show Steady Improvement, Progressing From Mark of 861 to 91 Michigan, in the three intercollegiate matches held under the National Rifle association rules, according to unoffi- cial figures, has been represented by 13 men who have scored a total of 6,099 points out of a possible 8,000 foi per- fect score. The individuals, with a possibility. of averaging 800 with per- feet scores for each man in every match, have made an average score of 607. Steady improvement has been the keynote to the work of the Rifle team up to the present date. Starting out with a score of 861, they followed this the next week with an 899 score, which was beaten in the next two matches by totals of 903 and 913. The work which has been done in the past has shown results in this constant bettering of the: team total for the high five men, and, in the opinion of President H. Moul, eng. spec., the team, with additional practice, is capable of even higher, scores. The number of matches participated in, the total score and the average of every man who has shot on the Michi- AUDIENCE APPLAUDS WORK OF MARY TRUE, '15, AS MARJOLAINE Walker Peddicord as Sir Peter, .and S Magaret Reynolds Win Approval MarJolaine saw "Pomander Walk" as the troubled, blissful center of the universe, after love had stepped in and played havoc with the quaint old nook ,to send messages from 9:00 o'clock to 11:00 o'clock, every evening except Sunday. Hitherto, but one man has been stationed to take and receive mes- sages, and then for only two periods a week. The local station has been in con- nection with the University of North Dakota, the University of Pittsburg, Ohio State and Washington University for some time past, and can now re- ceive messages from a distance of 3,000 miles, under average conditions, be- cause of the addition of an "augment- er." DISPLAY ,TALENT IN, CO0MEDBY C LUB PLAY WIRELESS STATION WILL SEND MESSAGES ABOUT EVERY NIGHT With a force of three operators, the university wireless station is prepared Captain-elect Cochran has issued a list of names, comprising the likely squad of football aspirants for next fall's Varsity eleven. He expects the men to engage in the indoor training that will commence in the gymnasium as soon as the various candidates can arrange a specific time for the work in their respective schedules. There will probably be seven squads training at different times while the in- door work lasts. These will be as- signed to Captain Cochran and others of last year's squad, namely Rei- mann, Dunne, Zeiger, Bastian, Hildner, Norton, Millard and Roehm. The Var- sity men who graduate this June, Raynsford, Hughitt, James, McHale and Bushnell, will be on hand to help in the direction of these squads. The Varsity men and candidates who are training for baseball and track will be excused from this indoor work. A number of the men are also engaged in class basketball, and thus will be able to keep in good condition for the spring practice. The following list does not represent the entire squad which is expected to respond to the call for candidates in the spring, but any whose names do not appear here, and who expect to do some indoor preparatory work may find it convenient to join one of the squads mentioned above. The names of the members of the squad as known at this time follow: Captain Cochran, Watson, Reimann, Benton, Staatz, Zeiger, Lyons, Maul- betsch, Bastian, Catlett, Hildner, Lam- of the world. A less impulsive but appreciative audience saw that color- ful, flower adorned square last night as the scene of some genuine acting, an appealing atmosphere of subdued humor and unstilted emotion, and the successful attempt of an amateur cast to step across the bounds of conven- tionality into the professional fields of realistic drama. - The efforts of the Comedy club, in it2 thirty-first annual performance last night at the Whitney theatir, to depic the influence of love on those of al stations and ages, amid a setting lai in the early days of the nineteenth cen tury, can best be characterized as de lightfully pleasing. Few discordan notes were sounded, and a unity of at mosphere ran through the play from beginning to end. Mary True, '15, handled the leadin role in a natural, unrestrained manne that placed her at the head of the lis of applause-gainers. Her infectiou smile relieved what might have been with- different portrayal, a somewha tedious rendition of the lovelorn Mar jolaine. The boisterous Sir Peter, in the per. son of Walker Peddicord, '16L, brougt a laugh at every turn, while Mrs. Pos- kett, Margaret Reynolds, '17, was af successful in winning the approval o' the audience as she was in winnig f hand of the cautious Sir Peter. 'B tween them lay the most realistic rai acter portrayal of the performance MarJolaine's mother and fiancee Phyllis Povah, '16, and Morrison W ood '17, respectively, effectively uphel their parts with dignity.
