To Examine Fresh Gym Classes Again
With the close of freshman gym
classes, the first year men are suppos-
ed to take a second examination which,
with the chart made at this time,
shows the amount of improvement
made by the man in his physical con-
dition during the time he has been
taking the work, and since these ex-
aminations have not been taken by
the majority of freshmen, Doctor May
has arranged to see freshmen in the
gym to schedule their time of exami-
nation.

With 225 men and Nvomen working
in the Busrah campaign, the sum of
$1,075 was reported as being raised
at the third of the campaign dinners
held at the Methodist church parlors
last night. This sum is only a partial
report of the amount already sub-
scribed toward the goal of $3,700,
nearly a hundred of the committee-
men finding it impossible to be pres-
ent at last night's gathering,-,
E. E. Calverley, a missionary who
is stationed just 100 miles from Bus-
rah and who has but recently return-
ed from his Post, spoke of the great
need for hospitals and physicians'
throughout the entire Persian valley
section, and he drew some vivid word
pictures of the privations being suf-
fered by Dr. Van Vlack and the other
Arabian missionaries, these privations
generally being without reward and
accepted ,thanklessly by the people
whom they sought to help.
Grace Fletcher, '16, and E. C. Boyn-
ton, associate minister of the Congre-
gational church also delivered short
speeches and Frank Olmstead gave
some directions for the actual can-
vassing wark.
At the meeting tonight, Paul B.
Blanshard, '14, and Werner Sehroe-
der,. '16L, president of the S. C. A.
will speak, and according to General
Chairman Paul V. Ramsdell, '16, the
dollar ought to be somewhere in
Switzerland when all of tonight's re-
ports are in.
The campaign will end tomorrow.
afternoon, and all final reports of pro-
gress will be made at a meeting of
the entire committee to be held at 4:30'
o'clock tomorrow afternoon at New-
berry hall.

rium. H. L. Nutting, '15L, Leroy Scan-
Ion, '16L, Thomas Doyle, '15L, George
P. MeMahon, '16, Otto Wismer, '15L,
and K enneth Westerman, g rad., are
among those who will appear on the
program. Rehearsing for the enter-,
tainment is now under way and will
be continued practically every day un-
til the staging of the performance.
Louis K. Friedman, '15, is chairman
in charge of the minstrel show proper,
and D. R. Baflentine, '16, is assisting
him. E. .Rodgers, Sylvester, '17, Wa!-
aemar A. John, '16, and Verne E. Bur-
nett, '17, will handle the publicity,,
.while Staats Abrams, '17, heads a
large number of ticket sellers. The
performance will open at 8:00 o'clock
and will close in time for the Cotton
Ball to be held at the Union. ,Paste-
boards will sell at 25 cents each and

to. finance the annual Boat club re-
gatta, May 29.
Returns from the membership cam-
Laign which closed- last night are be-
ing compiled and will soon be pub-
lished. Funds from the canvass will
be use.d largely to pay for lumber for
the proposed boathouse to be erected
by students for the housing of racing
shells. Allan Ricketts, '15E, a former
officer of the club, after having made
a careful study of the dam, has begun,
plans for a lift, to carry canoes across
the Barton dam. His "work will be
submitted to engineering college au-
thorities, and the Edison company is
then expected to cooperate with the
aquatic club in having the improve-
ment put in before the regatta.
MICHIGANENSIAN ON SALE MAY 51
Issued 14 Days Earlier Than Last Year
at-Increased Expenditure
Printing of the Michiganensian was
completed in Grand Rapids last week
and it is now being bound in Chicago.
It will arrive here next week and be
put on sale May 5, which is 14 days
earlier than the publication of last
year's book.
The cost of this issue is $7,000, a
$2,000 increase over the amount ex-
Rended by last year's seniors. The
sale price of the annual will be $2.50,
notwithstanding the fact that the1
printing and engraving of each bookI
totals $4.30.,
More space has been allotted to cam-
pus activities in this edition than in,
any former one, pictures of every foot-
ball game played last year and snaps
of the underclassmen's contests be-_
ing the especial additions.

Raymond Robins of Chicago has
been secured as the speaker for the
fifty-seventh annual meeting of the
Students' Christian association to be
held tomorrow night at 7:30 o'clock
in Hill auditorium. A special musical
service is now in process of prepara-
tion, and in addition to the speaker,
of the evening, Paul B. Blanshard, '14,
who has been in Boston since his
graduation will deliver a short ad-
dress.
While the Busrah canvass techni-
cally comes to an end tonight when
the reports of the committees are in,
an effort will be made at the meeting
in Hill auditorium tomorrow night to
raise any portion of the $3,700 which
has not been subscribed or paid in by
the students on the campus.
Raymond Robins, who will take as
the subject of his address tomorrow
night, "Christian Statesmantship," was
the progressive party nominee for
United States senator from Illinois in
the election held last fall. He has be-
come famous throughout the country
as a settlement and social service
worker, and during the past several
months he has sperst considerable
time in heading up social service cam-
paigns in some of the largest universi-
ties and cities of the country.
In an editorial that appeared in a
Louisville paper a few weeks ago, the
following is said of a three days' cam-
paign which he held in that city. "We
have learned enough and absorbed
enough of Mr. Robins fire and enthu-
siasmn to carry us forward for several
months. If he could only, spend a few
months awakening the public con-
science of Louisville, and pointing out
the sure way to success in 'the fight
against gang oppression,. and political
graft, we too might see some of our
deserving offenders wearing the strip-
es, just as others are now doing as a
result of Mr. Robin's work in Illinois."
Hillsdale Students Organize Monday
J. W. Mauck, president of Hillsdale
college will speak to the organization
banquet of the new Hillsdale club at

elect their first officers and draw up
a constitution. ,All former Hillsdale
students are invited to join the club at
the initial meeting.
Dixie Club Holds Banquet Tonight

their second annual banquet at 7:00
o'clock tonight, at the Hotel Statler,
in Detroit. W. G. Goodwin, '16L, will
act as toastmaster, and Dr. M. B. Gar-
rett, of the history department, will be

ENTlRi

MEMBERS OF AlIT ASSO( 'ATtON
AND STUI)ENTS G( TO l)ETROIT
Nearly 300 university students and
members of the Ann Arbor Art asso-
ciation will form an art pilgrimage to
the Detroit Museum of Art this morn-
ing to view two displays of paintings
and stagecraft now on view there. The
trip will be managed by Librarian
Theodore W. Koch, and will return to
Ann Arbor this evening.
The exhibition of paintings is said
to be o'ne of the best in America, while
the stagecraft display is novel, and
has been attracting considerable at-
tention. The latter ex'hibit is made in
miniature, and shows settings of some
of the most artistic plays and operas
which have been produced in recent
year~s.
HOUSE PASSES BILL
TO BETTER [IBRARYI
Appropriation of $30,000 to Ile Spread
, Over Two Years; Plans Not
Conpleted

-'With the appropriation bill of Rep-
.resentative Sutton, calling for $350,000
for the university library, pass-'
ed by the house of representatives
by a vote of 79 to 10, and with the
practical certainty that the bill will
also be passed by the state senate
next week, the much needed improve-
-ments to the university library are
thought tobe assured.
The amount named in the bill is
that which was requested in January
by the Michigan regents, who after in-
vestigating the whole library problem,
issued a bulletin of information to the
legislature setting forth the necessity
Sincreased library facilities.
While no plans have been drawn up.
as yet for the remodelling of the pres-
ent .building, it is said that this work
will receive the attention of the re-
gents at their next meeting, unless the
bill meets with some difficulties in the
upper house. The bill spreads'the ap-
propriation over two years, providing
for $175,000 each year.
Owing to the fact that the library
will be constantly in usep it is antici-
pated that the work of building the
additions will be done gradually. Ac-
cording to a tentative plan which has
been proposed, the whole front of the
building will be changed, by altering
the rotunda and building an additional
stack room parallel with the present
one.. The building will be made fire-
proof throughout, and . the general
reading room will probably be up-
stairs.
The present general library was
built at a cost of $100,000, and
owing to the limited amount available
it was impossible to make the entire
building fire-proof.
During the last 11 years, the numn-
ber of volumes in the general library
has doubled in number, and they could
not be .replaced for more than a mil-
lion dollars, while the inventoried val-
ue is placed about three-quarters of
a million.

BUILDING FIRE-PROOF

PIIILADELPHIA, Arril 23.-
athletes from all over America g

equalling the world's mark. Last y
Drew won, easily. Jones of Geor
town, who finished- second last yea
also on hand, and will run tonorr
Seward of Miehigan, who finished th
last season,. is missing, but Sewar
former teammate, Smith of the W
verine squad is entered, Smith pla
in both dashes in the intercollegi

count of himself. ;Patterson of Pem

Cornell's four mile team, which
be composed of Speiden,1 Hoffini

event, although Michigan and WisC
sin both loom' up as dark horses ju<
ing from the sensational grace at 1
Drake Relays.-
In the pole vault, Foss of Cr
has entered, and is figured to plaD
prominent part in the scoring. Wils
of Michigan, Curtis of Syracuse a
one of Missouri's vaulters, are also

- Cross .of Michigan" stands fo
prominently in the discus, as t
youth is reported to have thrown f

Yost Makes Practice Go Smoothly;
Weather Makes It Go Perspiringly
___- ---

Coach Yost supervised the workout
of approximately 40 football candi-
dates yesterday afternoon, the practice
consisting prinipally of routine work.
Weather conditions suggested al-
most anything but football. However,
the presence.of the mentor supplied
the needed inspiration, and things
went off smoothly, although a purely
impartial observer might have more
accurately described it as "per-
spiringly." Captain Bill Cochran was

on hand, cavorting about the field with,
the others, and. he must have lost sev-
eral pounds during the course of the
afternoon's activities. However, Wil-
liam isn't of such delicate and modest
proportions that the loss of a dozen in-
significant pounds is perceptible toothe
casual observer.
The squad spent the bigger part of
the afternoon kicking and passing,
with some attention devoted to block-
ing and tackling.
