The concrete used in the founda-

to cover the entire campus with a ce-

contractors in the accomplishment of
hoisting, would furnish sufficient pow-

These are only a few of the possible
comparisons, but they'will serve to
show that when the new science build-

a structure which will compare favor-
ably with the buildings of any of the
largest universities in the country.

Revs A. W. Wishart Will Be Principal
Speaker at Red Cross Meeting
Thursday
TO AROUSE INTEREST FOR WORK
Rev. A. W. Wishart, of Grand Rap-
ids will be the principal speaker at the
Red Cross mass meeting, to be held
in Hill auditorium Thursday night,
October 15. Dr. Wishart is known as
one of the foremost peace-workers in
the middle west. That he is well vers-
ed in international affairs is shown by
the fact that he was recently appointed
by Gov. Ferris on a committee of 50
to act as a foreign advisory board. As
Dr. Wishart was in Europe when the
war broke out, he had an opportunity
to study the situation from every an-
gle.
President-Emeritus James B. Angell
has consented to open the meeting, but
the serious illness of his grandson now
makes it an uncertainty. Prof. A. A,
Stanley, of the school of music is ar-
ranging the musical program. The co-
operation and support of the organiza-
tions which volunteered assistance in
promoting the meeting, have assured
its success. Among the organizations
working together on the meeting are:
the Cosmopolitan club, the King's
Daughters, the Michigan Union, the
University Y. M. C. A. and the Univer-
sity School of Music.
The purpose of the meeting is to re-
new interest in the American Red
Cross association, and to raise fnds
for the continuing of its humanitarian
work on the battlefields of Europe.
Already thousands of Red Cross nurses
have been sent to Europe, but many
more are needed. The Cosmopolitan
club is rehearsing a tableau to be giv-
en at the mass meeting.
So many hats were lost or exchanged
by fellows attending open-house recep-
tions of sororities at Illinois last Sun-
day, that a meeting of all men with
misfit head-gear was called at the Y.
M. C. A. at 4:00 o'clock, Wednesday
afternoon. Fifty men turned up to
reclaim their proper hats.

NEW MEN SHOW REAL STRENGTH
Captain Raynsford is the greatest
defensive player on the Michigan team
this year. This was indicated in both
the early games, and was definitely
shown in Wednesday's game with Mt.
Union. "Jimmie" tore up things all
over the field. His work at breaking
up the short passes of the visitors was
little short of marvelous, and his back-
ing up the line was perfect.
In addition to his defensive work,
Raynsford has a habit of getting down
the field under punts. At least once{
in all the three opening games, the
Wolverine leader has tackled the
catcher of Splawn's boots, several tim-:
es nailing him dead in his tracks be-
fore the ends were on the scene.
The other linemen are playing bet-.
ter ball than was expected, despite the
fact that they were up against a stone
wall Wednesday. Reimann is begin-
ning to play the kind of aggressive
game the coaches were counting on
him for; and Cochran, at the other
tackle, is gradually accustoming him-
self to the new position. The veteran
guard is heavy for a tackle, but is'
learning fast.
In one regard, however, Michigan's'
tackles failed miserably on Wednesday.
They had been coached to spill the
ends, regardless of where the play
went, when the visiting forwards play-,
ed in, in order to break up the short
passing game of the Alliance men.
Both Michigan forwards forgot their
duties, and consequently Michigan's
secondary defense had its hands full.
Whalen, at right guard, is putting up
a great game for a youngster. Quail
had a bad knee Wednesday, and Wat-
son was given the call at the other'
guard. All three of these men are
powerful fellows, but none of them
has yet acquired the aggressiveness
which makes first class forwards.
They lack the fighting spirit, but once
it is instilled, as in the case of "Hack-
enschmidt" Allmendinger last year,
Yost will have some star linemen.
Staatz and Dunne are a pair of young
flankers who have already ousted a
veteran from the first lineup. Both
are strong defensive players, and Yost
has abandoned his plan of playing

LAND IS UNDER MARTIAL LAW;
DEFENSE LINES ARE PREPARED
Hollanders Are Attempting to Keep
Strict Neutrality in
Great War
Prof. J. G. Winter, who spent the
summer traveling in Europe and who
returned to Ann Arbor last Monday,
had the opportunity to view the war
through conditions no less interesting
because of their lack of sensational-
ism. Forced to abandon his proposed
tour of towns in central and eastern
France and in Belgium, Prof. Winter
returned to England and, took passage
thence to TIolland, where he remained
for over a month during the war.
Although comparatively little excite-
ment is evident among the people of
Holland, they fully realize the danger-
ous possibilities of their proximity to
the warring nations, and have main-
tained a neutrality, the strictness of
which is considered wonderful in view
of the tense situation. Similar to
President Wilson's policy in the United
States but, more exacting in the de-
mands for compliance with it, is the
official order of the Queen of Holland
forbidding emphatic or heated discus-
sion of the war among the officers of
the army.
In pursuance of this same policy
of absolute neutrality, newspapers of
Holland have abjured the use of "scare
heads" in war stories and print both
French and German "claims", in a sec-
tion devoted especially to the progress
of the struggle. Such news as is pub-
lished consists mainly of the authori-
tative reports of" Hague embassies.
The greater part of Holland is under
martial law. Lines of defense have
been prepared, and certain portions
of territory have been flooded as a
precautionary measure. Passes are
required to enter fortified cities. In
spite of this fact, and although the
number of trains is considerably re-
duced, travel is not difficult anywhere
in Holland.

Despite the cluttered conditi

than ever before. As a result,

Gymnasium lockers have been going
faster this year than ever before. Al-
ready 1,300 students have chosen plac-
es for leaving their clothes when using
the gymnasium, and a number "of
fresh lits and engineers, who are com-
pelled to take the regular gymnasium
course, have not been assigned their
lockers. Dr. May, who has charge of
these this year, reports that freshmen
have been neglecting to secure their
lockers.
Some freshmen have neither signed
up for examination nor clasified as yet.
a ,Dr. May urges them to do so at once,
as he is anxious to have his sections
i made up as soon as possible.

Improvements are to be made soon

boat house, by the Michigan Union
boat club, in co-operation with the
Eastern Michigan Edison Company.
The water is to be lowered by means
of the two dams, so that workmen may

of a dam near the old mill, where the
majority of river calamities have oc-
curred during the last few years, are
to be dynamited.
Information is to be posted along
the river to give telephone numbers of
the nearest houses, and places where
grappling hooks and a pulmotor may
be obtained quickly.

The president of Purdue University
has advised freshmen as follows:
1. Arrange a systematic and order-
ly routine of life, certain hours for
certain things, a regular schedule for
your daily work and play.
2. Learn to concentrate your at-
tention upon the work in hand.
3. Be industrious. The actual
amount of work required of you is
great and it is necessary that you ap-
ply yourself with unflagging industry.
4. Be punctual and prompt in meet-
ing all appointments and duties.
5. Complete each day's work in the
day assigned to it. Do not let your
work accumulate or put it off for some
other day.
6. Seek intimate contact and ac-
quaintance with your instructors. They
wish to help you, but cannot do so
if you are not within their each.
7. Eliminate from your life all non-
essentials. Choose that which is good
and useful and in harmony with your
purpose and put aside all else.
