ELECTRICAL ENGINEERS MAKE
TRIALS OF NG BURAEN LIGHPTAS
Test 10 Brands of Lamps, Taking About
6,000 Photometric and Other
Observations
Experiments on the comparative
light output of various manufactured
brands of tungsten lamps, just finished
in the department of electrical engin-
eering under the direction of Prof. H.
H. Higbie, pare expected to, save be-
tween $9,000 and $15,200 to the univer-
sity and other state schools and public
institutions on a single purchase of
lamps, if the brand of lamp recom-
mended by the department is adopted
by the state board of purchasing
agents. The experiments were made
on the basis of a $5,000 purchase of
lamps, in an effort to find the lamp
which would give the greatest number
of candle-power hours of light output
for one cent expenditure in lamps and
energy consumed. 10 different brands
of tungsten lamps, represented by 240
samples, were put under test, and
about 6,000 photometric and electrical
observations, and more than that many
calculations, have been taken on the
samples.
'On the basis of the quantity of light
output to be expected from $5,000
worth of good lamps in a year's time,
the cost to produce this light by the
best lamp tested, the price of which
is 20.7 cents each, was $32,900, with
energy costing three cents per kilowatt-'
hour, as against $41,900 by the cheap-
est lamp tested, the price of which is
18 cents. This means a saving of
$9,000, due to the selection of the best
lamp notwithstanding its greater init-
ial cost. With energy at seven cents
per kilowatt-hour, the difference be-
tween the cost of energy necessary
to operate the lamps was fqund to be
about $15,000.
'The brand of lamps selected by the
department is known as the "Edison
Mazda Lamp," manufactured by an
eastern firm. The "Mazda" type of
lamp, on the average, gave from 16 to
21 per cent more candle-hours for one
cent than any other type of lamp
tested.

Practically all of the plans for the
carrying on of the annual Busrah can
paign of the university Y. M. C. A.
have been made, and the campaign
will start on Thursday, April 22 and
continue through Sunday afternoon,1
April 25. A committee composed of 25
captains and 125 privates will handle
the canvass among the men, and the
women have been divided up into two
teams under the captaincy of Anneta
Wood, '17, and Laura Feige, '15. To as-
sist these two captains the following
committee has been appointed: Grace
Fletcher, '16, Estelle Hooper, '16, Mar-
ion Stowe, '16, Nellie Hanna, '15, Gita
Tucker, '16, Josephine Randall, '17,
Amelia Wood, '13M, Clara Sargent,
'15M, Huldah Bancroft, '15, and Edith:
Moiles, '15.r
P. V. Ramsdell, .16, who is general
chairman of the campaign, has ar-
ranged a series of daily dinners for
the men and women who are to work
in the canvass, and these will be held
the same as last year, on the days on
which the actual work is being done.
P. C. Lovejoy, '16, has been appointed
executive secretary of the campaign,
and will have charge of making all of
the 'business arrangements.
The Busrah project, which is a med-
ical mission located at Busrah, Arabia,
was started by the local association in
1910, as the result of an agitation be-
gun at the Rochester Student Volun-
teer convention. That year $609 was
.solicited and paid in by the campus.
Each year since that time, the amount
annually pledged has gradually risen
until last year approximately $4,500
was pledged,,and of this sum, $3,357.13
has been paid in. -This year, the com-
mittee will endeavor to raise about
$3,500, and this sum will be used to
support the Michigan men and women
who are now working in Busrah. At
present there are five Michigan repre-
sentatives at the mission, but the sup-
port of only three of these devolves upon
the university student body, the other,
two being supported by funds received
from the hospital patients.
At the present time Yale, Princeton,
the University of Pennsylvania, Har-
vard, Oberlin and Dartmouth maintain
foreign missionary projects in the,
Orient.

ReitiJ Fees
Details of the administration of the
two new halls of residence for univer-
sity women were decided upon at a
recent meeting of the boards of gover-
nors at the home of 'Dean Myra B.
Jordan.
Of the 112 women who will be housed
m the Martha Cook building, from 12
to 15 will be chosen from each of the
sophomore, junior and senior classes.
All the others will be freshmen. There
will be 10 from each of these classes
in the Newberry building, and fresh-
men to bring the total to 68.
Room rent will be $50 per semester,
payable in advance, and board $4 per
week, payale probably in two install-
ments each semester.
. The rooms are practically all single,
furnished with a single bed, flat-top
desk, desk-chair, easy chair, dresser
and bench in grayish-brown oak. The
dining rooms will be furnished with
sm:all tables. A sitting-room and kit-
chenette, completely equipped, will be
a feature of each of the bedroom floors,
and there will be laundry and sewing
facilities in the basements.
Applications for rooms, including an
initial deposit of $5, must be made to
Mrs. Jordan in writing by April 20,
when they will be opened in the order
received and formally accepted. As-
signments of specific rooms in both
buildings will be made by lot in the
fall.
Two officials will preside in each
hall, a social head and a professional
business manager. In both halls some
form of self-government will be em-
ployed.

purchased at a cost of $6,000, and will
reach Ann Arbor in about a monih.
The entire cost of the project is esti-

work will start as soon as the materi-
als to be used in the construction ar
received.

1915 FOOTBALL ASPIRANTS TO
COMMENCE PRACTICE APRIL 20
Coach Yost Will Be on and to Drill
Athletes with "Germany" Schultz
and Cochran
Outdoor football practice will com-
mence on April 20, the day after the re-
opening of school. Coach Yost will be
en hand to direct the training of the
gridiron athletes, and in all probability
"Germany" Schultz will assist the
coach and Captain Cochran.
The first moves thus will be mhde in
the preparation for the 1915 football
season. The long grind will continue
until next fall, as the players are re-
quired to keep in condition through
the summer vacation. All the men
who have been working out in the gym
during the winter months will be asked
to report to the coach on the first day.
The work probably will consist in
running, charging and punting, but the
exact program will not be known until
Yost arrives. The outdoor workouts
will be continued for several weeks,
with the coach remaining for the first
two, at least.
"Germany" has not yet let the offic-
ials know whether he will be present;
but he will not be able to resist the
call of the moleskins, according to
Captain Cochran. Both veterans and
rookies will be included in the squad
to assemble after spring vacation, no
one being excepted from the call.
