BEGIN TO PREPARE FOR DRAKE RELAYS Coach Farrell Satisfied With Showing of Track Squad at Chicago, Everything Considered fMY ENTER HALF MILE TEAM Satisfied with the showing under existing conditions, Coach Farrell and his track squad returned from Chica- go, and have begun active prepara- tions for the Drake relays. Corbin's showing in the high hur- dles was more than satsfactory, the Michigan man winning the event in the fast time of seven seconds' fiat. ,Carroll's performance in the mile was also pleasing, for although, he did not win, he finished second, far in advance of any of the- college competitors who had entered. Ray, the I. A. C. man who won, is a sensational runner, as his time of 4:22 2-5 indicates. Ufer's misfortune in the half mile spoiled an excellent race, as "Joe" and Osborne, the conference star, were the pick of the field. Ufer was right behind Osborne, when he fell along in the middle of the race. The Northwestern captain disposed of the rest of the field with ease, finishing yards andyards ahead in 2:00 3-5. The pole vault saw Wilson elimin- ated at 11 feet 6 inches, but the condi- tions were the same as exist outdoors, and Wilson has not even been on Fer- ry field this season. The coach will devote the most of his time to the half-milers and milers, as the Drake relays are scheduled for April 17. Ufer, Carroll and Fox are certain to run on the four mile team, with either Donnelly or Grauman fig- uring as the fourth man. The coach will conduct half mile trials, to decide whether Michigan will enter a half mile team in addition to the four mile squad. TWO STUDENTS G0 UNDER KNIFE Operate on G. D. Peters and H. F. Rob- inson for Appendicitis Guy D. Peters, '17D, and Harold F. Robinson, '18E, were operated upon yesterday afternoon by university hos- pital physicians, when they were found to be suffering from appendicitis. Both men were reported to be resting com- fortably last night. George .D. Sutton, '15M, who was operated upon for ap- pendicitis last Thursday, is reported by university hospital authorities to be showing marked improvement. Mathematicians Return from Chicago Professors Ziwet, Ford, Bradshaw, and Love have returned from Chicago where they were in attendance at a meeting of the American Mathematical society. Professor Ford read a paper entitled "On the Representation of Ar- bitrary Functions by Definite Inte- grals" and Professor Love delivered a paper "On Linear ifference and Dif- ferential Equations." MINSTREL PLAY TO ~ IlNNEREGATTA Louis K. Friedman, '15, in Charge of Preparations for Entertainment Scheduled for May 24 NAME CHAIRMEN TO CONDUCT NEW CAMPAIGN FOR MEMBERS Varied Program Decided Upon for Water Carnival This Spring In- cludes Racing Contests Members of the Boat club will give a minstrel show on Friday night, May 24, in order to raise funds for the re- gatta to be held on Barton pond, May 29. and to arouse interest in the crew racing projects of the club. Committee- men have peen appointed from among members to carry on a membership campaign immediately after the spring vacation, and to make plans for the regatta, and for the dance to be given at the Union at 8:30 o'clock tomorrow night. Louis K. Friedman, '15, is in charge of the minstrel show preparations, and he and his assistants are beginning active work on the project. If per- mission can be secured, the show will be staged in Hill auditorium. The affair will assume proportions similar to the "Band Bounce," though the pro- gram will be of considerably different make-up. Various actors in the Union opera, and other popular entertainers will be secured to give specialty features. Co- operation of the Varsity musical clubs and the band will be asked, and some skit will probably be included on the program. Proceeds are to be devoted largely to defray the expenses of the regatta, and to back the club's plans for instituting crew racing at Mich- igan. Chairmen, who have been appointed to help in the house-to-house member- ship canvass, slated for the two weeks following the holidays, are as follows: G. I. Murphy, '16, E. P. Wright, '16E, R. S. Collins, '16, H. M. Warner '16, J. W. Thomas, '16, M. S. Reed, '16E, H. C. Buell, '16E, R. Collins, '17E, Har- ry }Qell, '16L, and Staatz Abrams, '17E. These men will meet with the general chairman at the Union at 7:30 o'clock' tonight, in order to receive instruc- tions and to pick committees of 10 to 15 men each. All committeemen will gather for a smoker at the Union on the night after the return from the holidays, and will start out on the house-to-house can- vassing, from which they will report at the Union each night until all stu- dents and faculty men on the campus are solicited. The card system a the general scheme of the life memjiihip canvass of the Union last year, will be employed. The program for the afternoon of the spring regatta as decided upon, will include, according to present plans, the following events: A cham- pionship race with eight-oared shells, between the Grand Rapids and Detroit boat clubs; the water marathon from Lakeland to Barton pond; three canoe events open both to students and out- side organizations, several of which have practically promised to compete; two canoe events open only to stu- dents; one 50-yard, and one 150-yard swimming dash; three diving events; a tub race and several other feature events; exhibitions in resuscitation. Numerous cups and trophies are being arranged by Sidney T. Steen, '16E, and correspondence is being carried on with several outside water clubs. DRAMA AND WOMEN'S LEAGUES STAGE "TROJAN WOMEN" SOON Hill auditorium has been secured for the presentation of "The Trojan Wom- en" on April 22. The play is to be given by a company from the Little Theater of Chicago, which has achiev- ed an international reputation for its productions and its experiments along new lines of staging and lighting. The play has been secured for Ann Arbor theater-goers through the ef- forts of the Drama League and the Women's League. A liberal donation from the Carnegie Peace fund has made it possible for this production to; be put on the road, since the players, and staff of the Little Theater Com- pany 'receive no salary, apart from. their living expenses. Entire net prof- its of the production will be devoted to the Woman's Peace party. misconduct. Probation for miscon-I FIX PUNISHMENTS FOR MIlSCONDUCT Engineering College Introduces Proba- tion and Warning as Pen- alties for Minor Offenses BECOMES PART OF RECORD BUT MAY SAVE FROM SUSPENSION University of Wisconsin Uses System of Graded Penalties with Success The college of engineering has in- troduced, as punishments for minor offenses, probation and warning for duct carries with it a warning that a repetition of the offenise, or the com- mission of a similar offense, will ren- der the student liable to suspension. This probation becomes a part of the student's official record, and is report- ed to his parent or guardian. In many cases, this punishment will save the student from suspension and enable him to make good in college, if he is madeof the right stuff, and if his sub- sequent conduct shows that he is worth saving. In a similar manner, students on probation for scholarship may escape the "home list" by passing 12 hours of assigned work. In both cases the stu- dent has a chance to correct his mis- take and adopt higher standards. In a recent case brought before the com- mittee on discipline, a student was placed on probation for misconduct and marked "E" in the course for copy- ing from another student's bluebook in a written exercise. The University of Wisconsin has for two years employed a system of grad- ed punishments, including probation and warning for misconduct. A com- mittee of the whole university admin- isters this system, recommending fac- ulty action in all cases of suspension and expulsion but acting in minor cases, reporting their findings to the faculty. Cheating in examination has been largely eliminated by placing students on probation, marking them "E" in the course, and adding four hours to the graduation requirements, the probation remaining in force until the current assignment of studies and four extra hours in the subsequent semester are passed. Prof. F. L. Pax- son, formerly professor of history in the University of Michigan, is chair- man of the general committee on dis- cipline.

OFFERS OPINION ON SUMMERBAEBAL Editorial in Marquette Alining Journal Shows Question Rouses Much Interest CALLS IT "A BAD) SIUATION" That the summer baseball agitation now occupying the minds of the Mich- igan students, is being closely watched all over the state, is shown by the' following editorial, reprinted from the Marquette Mining Jornal. It shows that editors are interested in the activ- ities and problems which face the students of the state university. the editorial is entitled "A Bad Situation," and is as follows: "The editor of The Michigan Daily admits frankly what we all know, that the varsity baseball team is made up in large part of players who accept money for summer baseball, and that these same players, as an incident to each varsity season, give solemn as- surance, presumably on their words as gentlemen, that they are not paid for summer baseball. With the asser- tion of the editor that this is v deplor- able condition there must be'general agreement. "It is so highly deplorable, in fact, that it would seem to demand the at- tention of the faculty, or even of the regents, who must be cognizant of it. To the man who cannot grasp the hairsplitting arguments by which this sort of procedure is justified, it ap- pears that a system that annually per- mits a number of young men solemnly to attest to a lie, and to be none the worse off for this false conduct, is mighty poor training for rectitude in later relations of life. "The question of summer baseball is debatable. Some persons competent to express opinion believe it should be authorized, although the majority is strongly against it. But there appears to be little room for debate about a system that permits the faculty and board of control of a great institution to sit bfy, knowingly, while a consider- able number of young men under their direction annually attest to a lie, that they may be members of an athletic team. "The university should get straight on this thing. It should eit -.ay: "Yes, we have men who play r baseball on our team, and we 6 xi to book our games with that un c3- ing," or it should open vigorous war- fare on summer baseball players and see that they are rigorously excluded from varsity sport. The most import- ant thing for the university to do is to put an end to the flagrant hypocrisy and false dealing that has character- ized its handling of this question." Ferry Field Loses Record in Hurdles H. L. Lampert, a Los Angeles high school boy, broke the world's inter- scholastic record in the low hurdles Saturday, covering the distance in 24 2-5. Cory held the previous mark of 24 4-5, setting it on Ferry field at a Michigan interscholastic meet. MAY PUT GRIDIRON STAR UNDER KNIFE "Johinnie" Maulbetsch, Crack Halfback, Reported in Serious Condition Requiring Surgical Treatment Innings Scrubs Varsity BASKETBALL GAMES BROUGHT ON CRITICAL STAGE OF TROUBLE Dr. C.G.)arling, His Physician, Would Make No Statement about Patient Last Night "Johnnie" Maulbetsch, All-American halfback last fall, and star offensive player of the Michigan Varsity, ex- pects to go under the surgeon's knife during the Easter holidays. Whether he will have his appendix removed or be operated on for stomach trouble, has not yet been determined by his physicians. Maulbetsch has been in St. Joseph's sanitarium in this city for the past few days, where his condition has been the subject of careful study. The gridiron star's digestion bothered him during the football season last fall, and the recurrence of the disorders this spring at last compelled him to go to the hos- pital. Participation in the recent basket- ball games of the football men brought the trouble to a critical stage, and Maulbetsch was no longer able to ig- nore his condition, which the physi- cians state is serious, and the opera- tion will by no means be a minor one. Dr. C. G. Darling, the physician in attendance on the case of Maulbetsch, when asked for information in regard to the condition of the gridiron .hero, refused last night to give any hint as to the state of his patient's health, or as to whether the operation would be serious or not. Mrs. Maulbetsch, how- ever, stated that her son would need to undergo a difficult operation.

Willard Defeats Johnson in 26th Round HAVANA, April 5.-Jess Willard won the heavyweight championship of the world here this afternoon, when he knocked out Jack Johnson in the 26th round of the battle for the title. Wil- lard floored the former champion with a terific right swing to the jaw, and Johnson took the count. Up to the 22nd round, Johnson had the advan- tage of the milling, but he tired in this period and from then on through to the end, the white man carried the battling to the colored champion. About 17,000 people saw the title change hands. Willard weighed 238 pounds and Johnson 225. Former Economies Instructor Marries Frank B. Bernard, '12, formerly an instructor in the economics depart- ment, and Miss Gladys Jenny were married Saturday at Muncie, Indiana. Mr. Bernard is an official in a Muncie One-fourth of the hill on which the present two tennis courts are located is being taken off, and the lower part will be graded and drained. Four new tennis courts will be made on top of the new hill, the field south of which will be levelled and prepared as a place for group games. The north field will be extensively repaired for hockey and archery. The clubhouse will receive many im- provements, among which are showers, electric lights, and telephones. In time a fence will be built entirely sur- rounding the field. The department of landscape gardening is to assist the designing of the decorative features. The present Palmer field sinking fund is to be utilized to put in two fine courts just north of the new New- berry hall of residence. Those will be begun at once, and will also be' used for this spring's outdoor work. One court of the Newberry hall courts will be open for general use by uni- versity women at all hours of the day. The other Newberry court and the two now available on Palmer field will be in use for required work at 11:00, 2:00, 3:00, and 4:00 o'clock Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thurs- days, but will be open for general use at all other times. Distribute "The Senior Law Crease" "The Senior Law Crease," the offi- cial publication of the senior law class, was distributed at Granger's last night, when the grave and solemn members of the legal department gathered for their annual evening of dancing and merry-making. The publication be- sides containing the evening's program is made up or snappy editorials, and stories of the faculty and upperclass- men. The dance was restricted to sen- iors, and those who could not obtain their issues of "The Crease" last night may secure them at the law building, from 9:00 o'clock to 12:00 o'clock to- day.
