Speiden, of Cornell, the fleet-footed

pion, will run for Dartmouth, and Fer-
guson, the eastern king bee over the
low sticks, will be on hand for his

The Pennsylvania authorities have

for the most part it will be high class.

TRACKTEAMS BUSY
Many Entertainments Planned for Two
Day Interscholastic Meet
on May 21 and 22
TO WITNESS CLASS CONTESTS
Every moment will offer entertain-
ment of some kind, in the two days
awaiting the track athletes who will
be in Ann Arbor for the annual inter-
scholastic meet, scheduled for May 21
and 22. Manager Frank G. Millard
has announced the schedule of func--
tions for the Friday and Saturday of
the' meet. During the whole of the
two days, an attraction will be on deck
all the time, and in many cases two or
three events will be offered at the
same time.
The visiting athletes will arrive in
Ann Arbor Thursday night, May 20, or
early Friday morning. They will
register immediately at Waterman
gym. Friday morning, after they are
assigned to'the fraternities and house
clubs at which they will stay, the
men will be given an automobile ride
around the city.
Friday afternoon, the preliminary
heats of the track events will be held.
The annual fresh-soph tug-of-war
across the Huron river will furnish
amusement to the men not engaged in
competition.
For Friday night, a combined band
concert and all-senior sing is being
arranged. In addition, one of the
regular May Festival concerts- will be
held in Hill auditorium. The sing and
band concert will be held at 7:00
o'clock, adjourning in time to allow the
visitors to attend the bigger concert.
Saturday morning, the fresh-soph
push ball contest and relay races will
be staged on Ferry field. The visiting
athletes may attend this in a body.
From 1:30 o'clock to 4:00 o'clock
Saturday afternoon, the finals will be
held in all track events, for both
classes of competition. Immediately
following the last race, a baseball
game between .the All-Fresh and the
University of Detroit teams will take
place on the Varsity diamond.
The final affair offered to the visit-
ing athletes will be a banquet at the
Michigan Union. Here the athletes
who won medals, ribbons or cups, will
receive their awards. Speeches will
be made by Varsity athletes, represent-
ing the different branches of sport,
and a short musical program will fol-
low.
PART OF FRENCH FLIRT TO
BE TAKEN BY FRESH TENOR
Draped in the latest creations of the.
French capitol's fashion dictators, Miss
Annette Vincent, situated in the most
advantageous position in Madame
Brousseau's beauty parlor, exhaling
the gentle fragrance of the costliest
"parfumes," will endeavor to win the
hearts of the student members of the
loyal order of "bald heads" when the
eighth annual Michigan Union opera
plants itself on the board of the legit-
imate.
F.W. Grover, freshman, is the "man"
selected."by the committee on such
matters to don the effeminate wig and
pumps, and to trim the cuticle from
the digits of the male characters
of the "All That Glitters" cast. The
word "freshman" was not inserted
to startle the tradition-steeped grad-
uate nor to fool the "Lords of Elig=
ibility." It is a simple statement
of fact.
Yes, Grover is a freshman. Whether
he. has ever been tubbed. or not, we
do not know, but we do know that he
has a voice that will float out across
the footlights straight to the hearts of
his audience. At least it used to, when
he sang with the Meistersingers'quartet
of Detroit, and the critical student is
just as susceptible as the commercial-
ized theater goer of the big city.
Students of less magnitude have felt
themselves distinctly "puffed up" over
far inferior honors, yet' Grover, con-
scious of the fact that he is the first
freshman to take a part in the opera,
has remained level-headed through it
all. Whether or not he will have good
reason to become "swell headed" will
be definitely decided on March 31.
Prof. Bonner's Class to Hear Lazenby
Prof. Campbell Bonner's class in
comparative religions, which meets at
9:30 o'clock every Sunday morning in
Harris hall, will be addressed this
morning by John Lazenby of Toronto,
Canada. The visitor will take as his
subject, "Hindu Philosophy." All uni-
versity men interested in the subject
-have been invited to attend the
meeting.

NEW YOUNG MEN'S SHOP

be able to obtain the very newest in both models and
