MEN COMPETED IN PENN RELAYS
Princeton's two mile relay team ar-
rives in Ann Arbor at 8:12 o'clock this
niorning. Just what the exact compo-
sition of the team will be is a matter of
doubt, but news from the Tiger camp
seems to imply that MacKenzie, Hays,
Cooley, Abia and Barr are the men
who will journey here from the east.
These five men, with the addition of
Barnett, who is no longer eligible, were
the Princeton entries in the 1914 Penn-
sylvania relay carnival, and each one
is a man who has had experience in
intercollegiate competition of the first
class. With a team of four, composed
froml the gbove five, Princeton finished
Offlr in the two mile relay, being bested
by Illinois, Michigan, Chicago, and
Darnouth, in the given order.
Michigan's entries for last year were
Haff, Jansen, Murphy, Lamey, and
Griest, and from this list not one of the
men is eligible for competition this
year. Mchign's entries in the relay
scheduled for tonight are all. men who
have had no intercollegiate competitive
experience, with the exception of Car-
roll who ran In the medley relays at
Buffalo on February 3.
Hays, the Princeton star half-miler,
has an unoficial record of one minute
and 55 seconds in this distance on an
outdoor track, and Mackenzie, although
his regular distance is the mile, has
been running the half lately, and is
said to be a close second for his bril-
liant teammate. In the face of such
odds as these, Coach Farrell preserves
a hopeful smile and says that the Mich-
igan quartette will acquit itself with

UNION BOA9T CLUB
STARTS CAVIPAIGN
John S. Leonard Cooses Comnmittees
for Work of Securing New
Members .
ECN6AISIi EN 1EV 4COURSE HIl)
John S. Leonard, 'l6L, is completing
his lists of men who will take charge
pf the Michigan Union Boat club cam-
paign for members, which will open
fire next wednesday following a mon-
ster smoker at the Union. The eligi-
bility of men appointed to take charge
of the work in the various schools and
colleges, has practically been confirm-
ed for the whole number. The names
will be posted in a day or two.
Soliciting will be carried on with
the various schools and colleges as
bases. A general chairman will han-
dle the work in each, and will be as-
sisted by 0a chairman for eac'h of the
four classes in his department. Each
chairman will secure a large number
of committeemen to carry on the can-
vass over a certain portion of the
campus. The schools of Dentistry,
Pharmacy and Medicine will be re-
garded as a combined department with
one general chairman and 11 chairmen
to assist him.
Special efforts will be made among
the faculty men, and students have
been appointed to carry on this end
of the work. Any student or faculty
man may register for $1.50, but all
who have paid fees to the Michigan
UTnion need pay only one dollar. All
who register in the incipient campaign,.
will be entitled to participate in con-
tests at the Boat club regatta which
will be held on the H1uron river in the
latter part of May, and will be eligible
to attend the club, dances, dinners,
smokers and other meetings.
Last year between 300 and 400 men
enrolled in the campaign held last
spring, and a much larger number is
expected for this year. Members com-
leted laying out a triple English l1en-
ley course on 'Barton pond on the (lay
of the J-hop, and besides backing the
proposed inter-class and.Varsity crew
racing, have distributed pamphlets and
lectures on resuscitation.

R~IFLE TEAM RAISES-
TOTAL IN CONTEST
Score Against Nebraska Brings Squad
Near Top in Intercollegiate
Contests
,l. it. UOSER GETS HIGHEST SCORE
Michigan's Rifle team shot against
Nebraska yesterday afternoon at the
Ferry field rifle range, boosting its
total 10 points above last week's score
against Rhode Island State, the sum
of the scores of the five high men
being 923.
In case of a defeat of Nebraska by
the Michigan team this week the av-
erage of the latter will increase as
the Nebraskan's average decreases,
thus placing Michigan in a tie for first
place with Yale alone in point of
games won, and above Nebraska in
point of percentage.
J. P. Thompson, a freshman, featur-
ed yesterday afternoon's match by tie-
ing L. C. Wilcoxen, with a score of
186, for high man among the first five
who had significant scores. Thomp-
son fell eight points short of a perfect
standing score, and six points below
a 100 score from prone. Wilcoxen's
prone score was only four points be-
low the perfect score, but he register-
ed only 90 from a standing position.
J. R. Moser secured the highest
single score with a 97 prone target,
but his 82 off-hand cardboard kept his
total below the mark, which would
put him among the men whose records
are counted in the official scoring of
the team. G. C. Curtiss also turned in
a 97 prone target, but his standing rec-
ord fell, when, on his last shot, with
a possibility of scoring 188, he missed
the target and registered a 178 score.
Ann Arbor's armory will be open
from 1:00 o'clock to 5:00 o'clock today
for the purpose of giving instruction
to all inexperienced members of the
Rifle club, who will receive lessons
from the older men on the team.

DR. MAX HELLER PROMINENT IN
TULANE UNIVERSITY ACTIVITIES
Jewish Rabbi to Talk at Union Services
in Hill Auditorium Tomorrow
at 7:00 O'clock AT FINAL MEETING

their

Dr. Max Heller, of Tulane Universi-
ty, who is to speak at the Union ser-
vice to be held in Hill auditorium Sun-
day night, on 'Moral Courage in Its
Bearing upon Modern Conditions" is
one of the most prominent Jewish rab-
bis in this country. However, for the
past several years his activities have
been centered in his work at Tulane
University, and the work which he has
done in the promotion of Jewish cul-
ture and ideals has been aside from
the regular position which he is now
filling.
He is also prominent in the journal-
istic field, and for many years he has
been editor and associate editor of
the American Israelite, the foremost
American Jewish periodical. For two
terms, he was president of the Central
Conference of American Rabbis, the
highest honor within the gift of his
colleagues, and he is at present a
member of the executive board of that
organization.
The music for the service will be
furnished by the choir of Temple Beth
El of Detroit and Rabbi Leo M. Frank-
lin of Detroit will read the full Jev-
ish ritual service.

gregation has lost a game to date, and
both teams boast some fast skaters.

ond set of numerals, has not yet been
decided, but the three elimination
matches will probably be played off
next week, if the ice stays. The fresh
engineers play the combined senior-
junior engineers on Monday night, the
winner of this match meeting the law
team for the chance to play the losers
of Saturday night's game.
The science and lit teams will line

FA CVLTY ADOPTS RESOLUTION
A,4fAINST PROBATION STUDENTS
At a meeting held on January 11, the
faculty of the literary college adopted
the following resolution: "Any stu-
dent renders himself liable to suspen-
sion for a break of discipline, who,
while upon probation, engages in any
public exhibition, contest, game or
other public activity."
Although the faculty has always had
the power to take such action at its
discretion, the above statement was
made to show how it stands on the
matter. The rule does not apply to
students on warning, but the same
punishment could be meted out to any
violator of the warning regulations if
the faculty saw fit to do so.
