Hollister. Though confident, the Varsity debaters realize fully that the cbming contest will tax their re- sourcefulness to the limit. Mr. H. M. Houghton, who received his M. A. de- gree from Prof. T. C. Trueblood, of the, oratory department, is a worthy train- er for Michigan's opponents.

FOURTH UNION FACULTY NIGHT ATTRACTS NUMEROUS STUDENTS Professors Express Selves Favorable to Continuation of Meetings Faculty members of the English and history departments of the university were guests at the fourth faculty night held at the Michigan Union last night. Large numbers of students from va- rious departments turned out. Among the faculty "men who attend- ed were Prof. L. A. Strauss, Prof J. S. *P. Tatlock, Prof. S. F. Gingerich, Prof. W. R. Humphreys, and Mr. W. O. Raymond, of the English department; Prof. C. H. Van Tyne, Prof. A. L. Cross, Prof. E. W. Dow, Prof. U. B. Phillips, Prof. E. R. Turner, Dr. . F. Scott, Dr. M. B. Garrett, and Mr. R. H. McLean of the history department. "It was one of the purposes," said Professor Van Tyne, "at the founding of the Union several years ago, that1 occasions where the faculty should come in closer social relations with the students should thereby be encour- aged. I am heartily in favor of these faculty evenings." Professor Tatlock suggested that perhaps some other night would make it possible for more students to at- tend, and voiced the general sentiment] in favor of the continuance of the get- togethers. Professor Turner said, "such events as these faculty nights might, well accomplish what the facul- ty advisory system aimed to accom- plish." 'DRYS' TO ATTEND TONIGHT'S FORUM' ing department; Detroit. and J. A. Brown, '05E, made away with more than $50 worth of property. The robbery was not discovered un- til noon when a fountain pen and wal- let were found missing, which result- ed in a general search. Occupants of one room round they had been, stripped of every cent in their posses- sion, although no jewelry was miss- inig. It is believed that the robbery took place about 3:00 o'clock in the morn- ing, for at that time the house-keeper was aroused by peculiar noises. Her stirring about probably frightened the robbers away, and prevented any fur- ther loss of property. According to the police no information or word of the robbery had been reported to them. BASKETBAL GME GIVES IGH] SORE Architects Run Up )50 Points against Senior Laws; Fresh Lits Defeat Sophs PLAY TWO CONTESTS TONIG-HT Running up the highest score of the1 season, the architects beat the senior laws in a 50 to 'Wigame 'it nal series of the clash asketball season7 at Waterman gym last night. Thet other game was ni ck and neck be- tween the fresh and soph lits, the year-; lings finally winning out by two pointst in a 31 to 29 contest.-. Drummond and Miller were thet stars for the fresh lits, each hangingt up five counters, wL.ile most of the scoring for the sop s was done byl Milroy and Bradbeer who scored 207 of the second year mi n's points.

Two games are scheduled for to- night, the fresh lits being slated to meet the fresh engineers at 7:05 o'clock, and the junior engineers being pitted against the soph Tits at 8:05 o'clock., 1 BOARD OF REGENTS (!NSDER GYMNASIUM ADDITITO N')N 'T Much routine business is slated to come before the Board of Regents at their regular meeting tonight. Plans for gymnasium improvements will probably be brought before the board, in accordance with the action taken at the last meeting, when a resolution was passed appropriating a sum not to exceed $50,000 for improvement of gymnasium facilities. At that time, plans for the improvements were re- ferred to the committee on buildings and grounds. H,.KERR PROBABLE Director Sanger and Chairman Baxter Announce Tentative New Leading Man Startling Number of Cases Reporh May Cause General "House-cleaning" Dean Mortimer . Cooley, head < the college of engineering, publici signaled the opening of a campaig against cheating in examinations I that college yesterdy morning, whe lie spoke on the subject for five mi utes before freshman engineers a their assembly. The tone of the dean talk to the first year students was on of warning, instead of open accuse tion, and he made a strong appeal t the freshmen to awaken to the signif cance of fair-dealing in the quizzes fo the sake of their own careers. He said in part, inspeaking of re ports which he had lately receive from faculty members and students c the enginering college, "The type , engineer is changing, if'the reports c cheating are true. Engineers can n longer be permitted to take charge o big engineering projects, and have th care of millions of dollars in money, i many cases without bond, as they hayl formerly." He appealed to the fresh men to bear their futures in mind, a to remember that a clean recor means much toward success afte graduation. The dean will follow up the cam paign Friday morning, when he wil talk at the junior engineer assembl at 10:00 o'clock, and the sophomore as sembly at 11:00 o'clock. At both o: these talks he probably will be slight ly more severe in tone, and will urg the classes to take the solution of the cheating matter into their own hands At the junior assembly a- propose honor system will be presented b members of the class, and a genera "house-cleaning" in the departmen will be suggested. Dean Cooley, when interviewed yes terday, stated that a startling numbe of cases of cheating in the college ha been recently called to his notice, an although he first refused to credit the statements, evidence from faculty an students alike had forced him to tak cognizance of the matter. A disiplin< committee from the faculty of the col lege was appointed, consisting o Prof. C. T. Johnston, chairman, an Assistant Dean Wm. H. Butts and Prof Walter T. Fishleigh, and the matte: was put into their hands. Since th4 appointment of this committee a num her of cases have been disposed of and more are under consideration. Dean Cooley himself, is 'at a loss bt know how to cope with the stuatioi because he stands against ospioniagt and lecturing on the. subject. He be lieves that the matter could be mos effectively solved in the hands of th< students themselves. His idea of th cause of cheating in the college is tha the danger of the situation has ho been presented with sufficient force and he will carry the matter openly only far enough to secure some sort o recognition on the part of the stu dents.

The finance committee states that there are good seats left for every performance, especially for Wednes- day night and Saturday afternoon. The greatest demand for tickets up to the present time has been for Friday night. Postpone Tonight's Alpha Nu Banquet Notice has been given out that the Alpha Nu banquet, which was to have been held tonight, has been postponed until after spring vacation, since the date conflicted with the work of most of the members. Those Who were sell- ing tickets are asked to return them to H. 13. Teegarden, '17, as soon as pos- sible. In order to be present at the meet- ing of the Forum at 7:30 o'clock to- night at the Union, the Intercollegiate Prohibition association will adjourn its meeting early. The topic for dis- cussion is "Is the Adoption of the Stev- ens Bill Desirable?" This proposed piece of legislation is ordinarily known as the "five-mile act," and if passed, would prohibit all saloons within a five mile radius of any state education- al institution. A wide variety of opinion in regard to the measure has been expressed on the campus, especially since the jour- ney of the Ann Arbor committee to the state capitol last week, and the larg- est crowd of the year is expected at this Forum session, Some of the opponents of the bill maintain that its passage will be con- trary to the doctrine of home rule. The supporters of the proposed act an- swer that when the university was first established, Ann Arbor was "dry," and that since then the saloons came to the city. They also say that the legislature has the right to repeal any legislation that it deems unwise. Some of the questions which prob- ably will be asked and answered are, "Will the Passage of the Bill Merely Mean That the Saloons Will Move Five Miles Up the River?," "Will It Lessen the Evil of Drink?" and "Will It Be Instrumental in Attracting More Stu- dents to Ann Arbor?"
