"TINY" KOHLER TAKES 11ORK-OUT
Last Year's Track Captain Source of
Wonder to Meet Spectators
Following the "Dub" meet yesterday
afternoon in the gym, spectators were
surprised to see a huge youth putting
the shot over in the region set aside
for that purpose, with a certain style
and form that attracted immediate at-
tention.
Freshmen were particularly im-
pressed. In fact when the new "phen-
om" took off his sweater and display-
ed a Varsity "M" they wondered even
nore and began to question each other.
They weren't long in doubt either. It
was "Tiny" Kohler, last year's track
captain who is spending a few days in
he city.

Varsity nine and quarterback of the

was appointed to the position of All-

topics of discussion. Beside coming

es and tion of winning at the Drake Reilays,
ngage- action was passed against sending it

ege at Farrell's men will journey to Chicago,
however, on April 3 to take part in the
at Ann A. A. U. meet. .
Official approval was given to the

"Watchman, Tell Us of the Night," is
the subject on which Mr. Willard H.
Beehan, of Cleveland, assistant chief
engineer of the Lake Shore and Mich-,
igan Southern railway system, will
speak at the Union get-together, at
3:00 o'clock this afternoon.
Dean M. E. Cooley who is a cousin
of Mr. Beehan, will entertain him
during the latter's visit in this, city.
The visitor is renowned for his inter-
est in young men. He is a great lead-
er in Y. M. C. A. work, being the found-
er of several organizations and at
present the head of the railroad "Y"
organization. He was present at a-
conference of eigineers of the univer-
sity several months ago, when he
spoke four times in one day before
Michigan students. Kenneth Wester-
mann, grad., will sing, and Gerald
Strong, '15D, will give a violin solo,
as the musical part of the program.
As the speaker at the large unionj
service to be held 4onight in Hill au-
ditorium under the auspices of the
Presbyterian church, the officers oL
that body have secured Dr. Frank. W.
Gunsaulus, of Chicago, president of
the Armour Institute of Technology.
The service will begin promptly at.
7:00 o'clock, and it will be featured
by a special musical program. As has'
been customiary throughout this series,
of special Hill auditorium union ser-
vic'es, practically all of the local
churches will dispense with their ev-
ening program.
Dr. Gunsaulus is well known in Ann
Arbor, having made annual visits here
for a number of years. Many present
day critics rank him as one of the
greatest preachers in America, and his
address will probably be of consider-
able interest to a university audience
because of his long connection with
the Armour Institute. During the
time that he is in Chicago, Dr. Gun-
saulus speaks to large audiences in
the Auditorium theater, and these ser-
vices are much on the same order as
the famous weekly service conducted
at the Cooper Union in New York City.

Webber Censures Board i Vintrol.
Charles Webber, member of the 1914
Varsity baseball team, made the fol-
lowing statement last night. Be de-
nounces the board in control for dodg-
ing the summer baseball issue ,at yes-
terday's meeting. Webber further giv-
es as his opinion that baseball 'eligibil-
ity conditions are so notoriously bad
that it is useless to plead ignorance of
existing evils, in the case of board
members.
Editor, The Michigan Daily:-
In an editorial in Saturday's Daily,
entitled "Expediency vs. honesty,' 1.
Beach Carpenter, the editor of The
Daily, made statements in regard to
the baseball situation here at Michigan
that warrant the attention of every
student and alumnus of the University
of Michigan. I personally wish to take
a stand with Beach Carpenter and back
him up in an effort to remedy the sit-.
nation. Before doing so, however, I
want to state that I will not play base-;
ball for the university this spring even
though the board should abolish the t
summer baseball ruling and declare
me eligible. I tak'e this stand for the3
reason that some have said that y I
motive in agitating this issue was _
ause I knew I could not play myself
nd therefore I wanted to prevent Qth-
rs from playing. I wish to make cleatr
:hat my motive in this controversy is d
he desire to free Michigan men and 8
thers from a situation that practically n
ails upon every college baseball play-
r to commit perjury.
The students and the alumni of the n
niversity have known for years that g
he men representing the university a
ave played baseball for money and c
hey have countenanced the practice, a
n the belief that it was a universal h
ractice. In other words, they held B
hat the rule was a dead letter. That e
eing the case, men have gone on year a
fter year committing perjury practi-.
ally openly, as they had the public t
pinion of the student body behind p
hem.
The 'board in control has known of'
. u
his and has made some effort 1o cor-
ect the situation, but in gneral, it ei
as been quite lax, there bng only e
ne case of notoriety in the past few b
ears, and that was so open that it
ould not be avoided. It, of course,
T
as been laboring under difficulties, T
he main one being, in my opinion, a
ck of sympathy with the rule which B
as prevented strict enforcement. D
D
The day when the candidates for the a
arsity team sign the statements that t
ey have not participated in so-called s
ummer baseball is a day to remember. {
ractically all of the men have played e
r money and so the signing of the h
aper is looked upon as a huge joke.
hey do not feel conscience-stricken, to
they are acquainted with the inef- G
ctiveness of the rule. I am not mal- p
g this statement from observation s
ly, for I committed perjury when I w
gfned the paper in the spring of 1913, E
I had played two games for money di
e previous summer. My reasons for a
mmitting perjury were that I re-,
rded the rule as being one that was
A binding. This year I did not care
repeat the process, although I could ti
.ve done so and could have played
ithout much chance of being discov-
ed, because even though I felt the m
le to be a dead one, I now felt that to
the eyes of some of my friends I
as not doing the square thing. That
ea being repugnant, I decided to take
stand. I have confessed my perjury ag
cause I have no desire to be regard-e
as a saint or an angel. no
Our situation at present is a rotten
e. Either we should line up for the m
le prohibiting summer, baseball or u
e we should abolish it entirely. To th
force the rule means two things: sq
her the men who have played base-
1ll for money must admit it or else al
