SEVEN BATTLES ON SCHEDULE] CHORUS APPEARS, THREE TIMES

Captain Ira Reindel and his three
supporters on the Varsity tennis team
leave today for the annual eastern
trip, playing Oberlin tomorrow in the
first intercollegiate competition of the
year. The team will then go to Pitts-
burg where it plays the University of;
Pittsburg and Carnegie Tech on Mon-
day and Tuesday of next week. Haver-
ford, Pennsylvania, Georgetown, and
Annapolis are the other teams which
will meet the tennis quartet.
Oberlin, Pittsburg, Pennsylvania and
the Navy bid fair to give Michigan the
most trouble on the courts. Oberlin's
team has been at work for some time
now, pointing itself for the Michigan
match, and the Ohio university should
put up a stiff front to the Wolverines.
Pittsburg has played five intercol-
legiate matches so far this season,
meeting Penn State, Georgetown, Penn-
sylvania, Annapolis, and Princeton.
Pennsylvania went under to a 4 to 2
defeat. Captain McKilroy and two of.
last year's veterans are back this year,
and the Pittsburg quartet promises to
be one of the strongest college teams
in the country.

In the first of its three appearances
on the 1915 May Festival program, the
Choral Union will open the initial con-
cert next Wednesday night, with the
audience joining in the singing of
"America."
On Thursday evening the Choral Un-
ion will take part in "The New Life."
The regular chorus will be supple-
mented at this time by a special chor-
us of 75 boys, from the choirs of the
Congregational and Episcopal church-
es. These boys have been trained by
Mr. Reuben Kempf, who is director of
both choirs, since the beginning of
school last fall. The boys' choir met
with the adult chorus in massed re-
hearsal for the first time last Sunday
afternoon. This choral work will take
up the first half of the Thursday night
program.
Miss Frieda Hempel, leading colora-
tura soprano of the Metropolitan Op-
era company will render a number of
operatic selections during the second
half of the Thursday night program.,
The Choral Union will not take part
in the Festival again until Saturday
night, when "The Children's Crusade"
will be given. In this work the regu-
lar Choral Union chorus of 300 will be
supplemented by a special chorus 'of
about 300 children. These children
have been trained for many months
by Miss Florence B. Potter, supervisor'
of music in the Ann Arbor public

Tonigta

With the Varsity band and Glee club
sharing in the program, the all-senior
sing, which will begin at 7:00 o'clock
tonight at the campus band stand, is
expected to attract an unusually large
crowd. The arrangements for the
affair are being made by the chairman
of the class senior sing committees, C.
T. Bushnell, '15, Wyeth Allen, '15E,
and H. L. Nutting, '15L.
The singing will be led by the Glee
club under the direction of Kenneth
N. Westerman, grad., and the band
will play an accompaniment to some
of the pieces. The opening number
will be "The Victors," in which all,
will take part, folowing which the Var-'
sity musicians will play "That Michi-
gan Band." The seniors will then
sing " 'Tis of Michigan," and "I Want
to Go Back to Michigan.'' The other
songs on the program, not including
the selections by the band, are "Fare-
well to You Old State Street," "He
Rambled," "I'll Ne'er Forget My Col-
lege Days," "Where, Oh Where Are
the Verdant Freshmen?," and the "Yel-
low and Blue" in closing.
Seniors from all. departments will
take part in the program, and in order
to accommodate the large numbers ex-
pected, the committee will have 200
benches and chairs placed about the
band stand.
IPARTY OF STUDENTS TO VISIT
DETROIT AUTOMOBILE PLANTS
Nearly 40 students of automobile en-
gineering in the engineering college,
accompanied by Prof. W. T. Fishleigh,
of the college, will go to Detroit at
7:00 o'clock Saturday morning to vis-
it two automobile plants in that city.'
In the morning the party will be shown
over the Ford plant by special ar-
rangement, and in the afternoon tech-
nical men at the Cadillac factory will
conduct students around that plant.
The latter trip will form a sort of lec-
ture tour son the manufacture and op-
eration of Cadillacs, and the features
of the eight cylinder automobile man-
ufactured by the company will be ex-
plained.
The trip will be open to a number of
students outside the courses in auto-
mobile engineering, and anyone who
desires to go with the engineers may
secure information on the tour from
Professor Fishleigh in the engineering

'Union Secures Large Number of Ap-
plicants in Night Canvass;
185 Work
DEAN PROVES BEST SOLICITOR
Without previous press-agenting of
any kind, 340 new life members of the
Michigan Union were gained in a can-
vass of the campus last night. The
impromptucampaign was largely as
a follow-up of Wednesday night's mass
meeting.
The canvassers numbered about
185 men. Only 145 had reported their
returns to the Union last night,
leaving 40 men still to be heard from.
The ' central campaign committee,
headed by E. H. Saier, '15L, was in
general charge. The night attack was
primarily aimed at the securing of as
many memberships on the campus as
possible before beginning work
among the alumni. A grand
total of $17,000 was added
to the $55,600 previously subscribed.
The canvassers were given the names
of their men yesterday afternoon, hav-
ing been summoned by means of pos-
tal cards.
In the 185, 30 were assigned to solic-
it 'the fraternity men. The leaders in
this division and the number of mem-
hers secured are: Russell E. Dean, 18;
Staats Abrams, 15; Donald Wurzburg,
14; R. E. Barnum, 14; Charles Barton,
12; and Phillip Middleditch, 11.
The workers among the indepen-
dents had only about half as many
names. The most successful solicitors
and their totals are: R. H. Criswell, 7;
N.arold Easly, 6; A. H. Toney, 6; A. V.
Dubee, 6; J. H. Otis, 5; and P. B. Ma-
her, 5.
PICK WHEELER AS PRESIDENT
OF COMBINED MUSICAL CLUBS
lHartesvelt, Ballentine, Wilson and
Forsythe Chosen for Other
t Positions
F. C. Wheeler, '15E, was chosen
president of Michigan's combined mu-
sical clubs at a meeting and banquet
held last night at the Union. Other
officers who were elected for the com-
ing year are: P. A. Hartesveldt, '16L,
vice-president; D. R. Ballentine, '16,
manager; U. S. Wilson, '16, leader of
the Glee club; and H. B. Forsythe;,
'17E, leader of the Mandolin club.
These officers with F. A. Taber, '17, of
the Glee club and O. O. Leininger, '16D,
of the Mandolin club will act as the
executive committee of the club.
P. A. Hartesveldt who was elected
vice-president of the club holds the
distinction of being the oldest man on
the club, having taken three western
trips. Next year will be his fifth year
of connection with the club.
Prof. J. A. C. Hildner, of the German
department, who acted in the capacity
of faculty representative on this year's
trips, spoke a few words to the mem-
pers at last night's banquet. All mem-
bers of the club who took the Christ-
mas trip this year were given watch
charms.

Pennsylvania has played two match-
es, having faced Yale and Princeton.
In the Yale match, Pennsylvania was
defeated by a 4 to 2 score. The work
of Captain Davis and Disston saved
two points for the Penn team, and
these two men bid fair to make things
hot for all teams that face the Penn
racket wielders.
The Navy always succeeds in turning
out a strong team, and this year's
quartet is not below the average. In
spite of the fact that Michigan won
over the Navy last year in a 6 to 0
match, the veterans with the Sailors
are in better shape this year, and the
showing of last year probably will not
be repeated.
PLAN ELABORATE CHAUTAUQUA
FOR SUMMER ENTERTAINMENT
Ann Arbor's summer Chautauqua
will be inaugurated this year with ev-
en more elaborate plans than that of
last season, according to B. H. Rawls,
ex-'17, secretary of the Civic associa-
tion. The Chautauqua will correlate
and supplement the university summer
session.
CRUMPACKER WILL
R-UN LOW HURDLES

IEIMANN TO MEET WITH NEW MEN
At the meeting of the S. A. C. cabi-
net held last night N. Earl Pinney, '16,
was elected president of the associa-
tion for the year 1915-1916. The posi-

schools.
To accommodate all these people on
the, Hill auditorium stage, it has been
found necessary to raise the back of
the stage 18 inches. Supplementary
seats are being placed for the children
at the sides of the stage. A hidden'
choi'us of children behind the rest of
the chorus will be used to give an echo
effect.
The first massed rehearsal of the
children's chorus with that of 'the reg-
ular chorus was held at the school
of music last Friday, under the direc-
tion of Prof. A. A. Stanley. On Sun-
day afternoon, they will rehearse with
the adult chorus in Hill auditorium.
Professor Stanley is optimistic over
the part of the Choral Union will play
in the festival. Since spring vacation
three rehearsals have been held every
week, and the attendance and work ac-
complished have been remarkably
good, he says.

By winning the low hurdle trials
yesterday afternoon, Crumpacker es-
tablished himself as one of the two
Michigan entrants against Syracuse in
this event.
The time was not particularly fast,
nor gratifying as all of the men have
run the distance considerably faster,
and Coach Farrell is still undecided
as to who the other Michigan low hur-
dler will be. "Bo" Wilson did not run,
but there is a possibility that he may
prove Crumpacker's running mate to-
morrow against Syracuse.
The coach is still casting about
rather vainly for a fourth quarter mil-
er to complete the one-mile relay
team. George Fox may be drafted in-
to service and there is a slight possi-
bility that Captain Smith may run a
lap. However, neither of these two
nthletes has ever had any particular
experience with the 440, and the track
boss in sheer desperation and as a
last resort, offers a substantial re-
ward for any eligible Michigan man
who will step forward and volunteer.
The only requisite is a written guar-
antee to do 52 seconds or better. But
anyone attempting to usurp the hon-
or of running on a Michigan relay
team and failing to live up to his guar-
antee will be prosecuted for perjury
and dealt with according to law.

VALIIM ALAkI NUBEU D U iEJ UJ.
Lack of enthusiasm and proper class
spirit, on the part of both first and
second year men, marked the first day
of tryouts for the annual spring games
of May 21 and 22. Unless more men
turn out today the contests which have
become a tradition at Michigan will
not prove the success which they have
been in former years.
Just 100 men, out of the necessary
360, weighed in at Waterman gymnas-
ium yesterday, as entrants in the tug-
of-war. Of this number only 20 were
second year men. The sophs did not
have a single candidate in the heavy
weight class.
The relay tryouts did not prove any
more alluring. Of the 48 men re-
quired for the obstacle races, only 12
ran the course as candidates. The
fresh had eight of this dozen tryouts.
More men must get out today in order
to insure fast teams. The officials in
charge announce a change of place for
the relay tryouts from the Fair grounds
to the east end of Ferry field, along
the State street side. Today will be
the last opportunity for weighing in
and for relay trials. Tryouts will be
held in both events from 2:30 to 5:00
o'clock at Waterman gym and Ferry
field.',

tion is purely an advisory one and
carries with it a seat on the board
of trustees of the S. C. A.
According to the results of the elec-
tions in the divisional units of the
Y. M. C. A., the following men have
been elected to office:
Literary college, president, W. S.
Westerman, '18; vice-president, W. C.
Edwards, '17; secretary, George B.
Daniels, '18.
Engineering college, president, W. 0.
Henderson, '16E; vice-president, J. F.
Meade, '17E; secretary, Sherwood Holt,
'16A.
Law School, president, R. Richard-
son, '16L; vice-president, G. C. Claas-
sen, '16L; secretary, W. A. Neither-
cut, '16L.
Dental college, president, William
Klinesteker, '16D; vice-president, Leon
Bryant, '16D; secretary, C. H. Matson,
'16D.
Medical School, president, H. M.
Lowe, '16M; vice-president, J. F. Run-
ner, '16M; secretary, R. J. Frackle-
ton, '18M.
The contests in almost every case'
were particularly close. This fact was
especially true in the lit college where
the largest vote was cast. The total
number of votes cast in the electiona
in all the schools and colleges was
slightly in excess of 400, this being
one of the largest ballotings in the
history of the local association.
The men elected will meet some
time this week with Lewis C. Reimann,
'17L, president of the main Y. M. C. A.
and an effort will be made to complete
a full cabinet organization in each,
school and college within the near
future.
