Doctor Angell spoke on the subject, "The Value of Scholarship," pointing out that hard work is essential to the accomplish- ment of anything worth while.

Delinquent Law Students Report Today Delinquent law students, who have suffered from disinclintion during the past semester, will be summarily dealt with, unless they can persuade the, committee on absences, which meetsi from 3:00 to 4:00 o'clock this after- noon, that they were compelled to re-] lieve the class room of their presencei for valid reasons. The board this year has decreed that the absence marks of the first half of this semester will be added to those of the second.; Seeks Information About Fresh Caps Northwestern College at Napperville, Ill., may have its freshmen wear green1 caps. The student council received a letter from the Institution asking com- plete information as to how the capl tradition was started at Michigan, and how it is working out. Three runs in the first inning de- cided yesterday's conflict on Ferry field in favor of the first team, this being the second shut-out of the week. Dav- idson's work in the box for the reg ulars figured largely in the. second team's loss, the veteran striking ou three of the scrubs in one inning, and as many more in the course of the game. The coach announced yesterday af- ternoon that the squad which will make the southern trip will not be an- nounced earlier than tomorrow night, it being the purpose of the Wolverine mentor to get as distinct a line as pos- sible on the men before picking them for the big work. It is possible that as many as 16 men will be taken south, but at least 14 will go along, and the coach plans on taking as many more as possible. East Indian Student to Speak Tonight Dr. F. N.

As will be recall- * * ed, the campaign was stopped * * last year because of the then * * unsettled business conditions * * brought about by the sudden out-' * * break of the European war, and * * because of the uncertainty as to * * what part we might take in the * conflict. * Replies from many letters re- * * cently sent out to alumni indi- * * cate-that business is gradually * * and firmly adjusting itself to the * * new conditions, and alumni have * recommended that the campaign * for funds be completed during * * the coming summer. The New * York alumni voted unanimously * * to run the campaign this year. * * Acting upon this, the Union cam- * * paign comittee, at a recent meet- * ing, passed a resolution to finish * * the work of organizing and so- * * liciting funds this year. * * In the campaign three sepa- * * rate funds will be asked for: * * $600,000.00 for building; $100,- * * 000.00 for equipment; and $300,- * * 000.00 for endowment. It is the * * purpose of the committee in * * charge to reach every alumnus * * and ask him to contribute at * * least a small sum toward the * * building in order that every man * * who has been at the University * * will feel that he has a part in its * accomplishment. * * To carry on this work the en- * * tire United States has been di- * * vided into eight districts with a * central committee in each one * * having charge of the sub-divis- * * ions in each district, with the 10- * * cal Ann Arbor office having * * general supervision over the * * entire territory. On July 1, * * ten men, young alumni of the * * University, will be sent out to * * organize local alumni commit- * * tees to carry on the soliciting in * * that particular territory. There * * will be no actual soliciting until * * the entire alumni body is organ- * * ized and put in touch with the * * central committee in Ann Arbor. * * The work of organization will * * be completed by September 30, * * and funds will be solicited dur- * * ing the month of October, clos- * ing with a Michigan Union * * smoker on October 31 in every * * town where there are Michigan * * alumni.

COUNCIL WRANGLES ON ELECTION PLAN11 s Refer Matter of General Balloting - Day Back to Committee; Class Question Proves One Stumbling Block CHAIRMAN MOTHERSILL WILL FORMULATE ANOTHER PROGRAM -Groups Chosen to Investigate Demand 1 for Open Electioneering and to Manage Send-offs After wrangling over the Campus Election day question fo an hour last night, the student council again left the matter with the committee, and the matter stands practically where it did three weeks ago. The chief question is whether the classes shall come under the plan this year, most of the councilmen express- ing the view that they should, while the board in control of the athletic as- sociation, the only group representing an all-campus organization which have been interviewed by the commit- tee thus far, has objected to this pro- vision, for this year at least. Chair- man Allen W. Mothersill; '15, intends to draw up another program fQr the election, and submit it to the various organizations. Howard MacDonald, '15, H. S. Par- sons, '15E, and H. E. Lilly, '15L, were '15L, were put on a committee to take gate the alleged demand for open elec- tioneering. G. A. Bergy, '15P, C.' W. Ditchy, '15A, and H. S. Rummel, '13- '15L, were put on a committee to take charge of send-offs for departing teams, the next of which is to take place when the track team leaves for the eastern intercollegiates. Provision for these committees was made at the last meeting. DOCTORS DECIDE MAULBETSCH SUFFERS FROM APPENDICITIS Star Will Not Be Out of Game, But Injury May Affect His Speed John Maulbetsch, Michigan's repre- sentative on Camp's All-American sel- ection for 1914, will be operated on some time next week for appendicitis, his doctors determining in a recent consultation that this was his ailment. The operation will be performed as early as is possible during the vaca- tion time. Although the Wolverine star will not be out of the game for next fall on account of his operation, he -will probably suffer from his sickness. The halfback will be kept out of spring practice, and this set-back will not tend to keep his condition up with that of the other football men, and he n:ay consequently suffer a loss of speed. TO START CLASS BASEBALL SOON Senior Laws and Junior Lits Back in Field with Strong Nines Interclass baseball will be started immediately after spring vacation. In order to get things under way, Intra- mural Director Rowe has called a meeting of the managers of all class baseball teams for 4:30 o'clock tomor- row in the athletic office. The class league should develop some hot competition this year. Last year's runner-up, the senior laws, are back in the field with a strong nine which promises to make trouble for any opponents. This team was in the running for the campus championship until the last game of the regular sea- son last year when they.were defeated by the 1914 laws. The beating resulted in a triple tie for second place, from which the senior laws emerged victor- ious. One of the other teams in the tie was the junior lits, who will in all probability present a strong line-up again this year. To Lecture Upon New Bible Text Today The Rev. E. S. Buchanan, of Oxford, Eng., 'editor of the Oxford Latin Bibli- cal Texts, will deliver a university lec- ture on "The New Bible Text in the Morgan Manuscript of the Apocalypse" in the west gallery of Memorial hall at 4:15 o'clock today. Dr. Buchanan, who was recently appointed university lecturer in the Latin department, has . spent the greater part of the last 17' years working on ancient Latin man- uscripts of the Bible. He is recognized as one of the greatest living Biblical scholars.
