ALUMNI OITE GIVE MICAHIGANDAY Captain l Inll Silby, ' 1 L, Isks that City Clubs Set D)ay Aside to iiscuss University DETROIT' INAU UUiATES PLAN There are at present time at the University of Michigan seventeen sectional clubs representing as many different portions of the country. These clubs have an aggregate mem- bership of several hundred and have been formed with the primary pur- pose of boosting Michigan. The largest club is that composed of students from the state of Illinois with a membership of 102. The Dixie club which is made up of students whose homes are below the Mason and Dixon line-has a membership of 73 and is representative of 16 states. The Cosmopolitan club has 125 students representing 28 different countries. The Thumb club made up of men hailing from the Thumb district of Michigan, numbers 60 mei; the Latin American club, an organization of students whose homes are located in the Latin American countries, has a membership of 18; and the Rocky' Mountain club, now reorganized into the Kappa Beta Psi fraternity, is made up of 40 men, representing 12 states west of the Mississippi river. The Dominion club which is composed. of men who live in Canada, numbers more than a score of active members. Among the state. clubs of which there are several in the university are the Indian a club which has a member- ship of 60; the New York State club which is housed in its own building and which has accommodations for 30 members; and the Kentucky club with 35 members. A number of city clubs have been organized. Among these may be men- tioned the Grand Rapids club which' is the largest, with a membership of 64 men, and the Cabinet club in which there are 26 men whose homes are in. Washington, D. C. Recently about 20 students living in Buffalo organized a Captain Inman Silby, '12L, former Commander of the ill-fated steamer, Republic, which sank off the Eastern coast several years ago, is strongly advocating that a Michigan Day be set aside by all alumni associations throughout the country. Captain Silby, who studied law here in the university after the disaster to his boat, was greatly interested in Mich- igan Union work during his residence in Ann Arbor, and now desires the Union to co-operate with the alumni associations in the matter of these Michigan Day gatherings. His plan is to hav each association set aside one day each week or month and to term this day Michigan Day. In celebration of the day, each is to give a noon day dinner at which time speeches will be given and topics of interest to Michigan men will be dis- cussed. The Detroit alumni association held its first meeting of this nature last Wednesday noon at which time Coach Yost was the principal speaker. It was in the nature of an experiment for a number of other associations' throughout the country and its com- plete success will do much towards in- ducing other ones to join in the move- ment. Already there are fourteen associations which have undertaken these Michigan Day meetings and it is Captain Silby's ambition to enlist every alumni association in the coun- try in this movement. SECURE PtLENTY OF TALENTFOR SHOW Durward Grinstead, 14-'17L, and Cleorge )ieliahon, '16, Volunteer; Others Promised L AMB WILL SHOW STAGE STUNTS If the "Band Bounce," the first an- nual "funcert" of the University of Michigan band to be lheld in Hill Auditorium, at 8 o'clock next Thurs- day evening, is the success it promises to be it will probably become a regular Michigan institution, The first class stunts already se- cured for the program would make a big 25 cents' worth of enjoyment but several numbers of the same kind are still under negotiation. The best of the old campus stunts will be shown and in addition a number of novelties are being prepared for the occasion. The band will vary its program with a -number of solos and duets among them a saxaphone duet by Aldrich and Lewenstein. The glee and man- dolin clubs will give the Michigan classics. Durward Grinstead, '14, dancing star of two operas and famous inter- preter of women's roles, will present his famous "Temptation Dance"'from "A Model Daughter," as given at the La Salle Hotel, Chicago, and the. Uni- versity club, Cleveland, last winter. George McMahon, '16, star in last year's opera, will sing with band ac- companiment. C. Stanley Lamb, '18, of Duluth, who has been years on the stage, will do stunts, dialect monologues and hum- orous songs. Lamb will sing a song prepared for the occasion by Walde- mar A. P. John, '16, the audience join- ing in on the chorus to the tune of "We're Going to the Hamburg Show." Efforts .are being made to secure J. Fred Lawton, '11, Michigan's Harry Lauder, writer of "Varsity" and other campus songs. Lawton was formerly well known for his football sketch from "Strongheart," his interpreta- tion of Coach Yost between halves of the Penn game, and Scotch songs. Other possibilities are a tenor solo by Albert Lindquist, of Chicago, for- merly of the School of Music, and a sketch by McNamara, the policeman sinne-r.
