Complete announcement of the
spe 1;ers for Saturday night's "Fare-
well" n ss meeting has just been
made by the fcommittee in charge of
the get-together, and "pep" in no un-
certain quantity is bound to be un-
loosed by the men selected t.o do the
taiking.
George TBurke, city attorney and for-
mer county prosecutor, will represent
the alumni. Burke is possessed of elo-
quence which probably is not surpas-
sed by any resident within the pre-
cincts of Ann Arbor.
W. A. P. John, '16, managing editor
of the Gargoyle, will speak for the
student body. John was one of the
speakers at a football mass meeting
last fall when the audience broke
loose in unrestrainable enthusiasm.
George McMahon, '16, will preside
over the meeting, and will express the
university's welcome to the hundreds
of visiting high school athletes.
Prof. R. W. Aigler, chairman of the
board in control of athletics, will pre-
sent the "M's" to members of the Var-
sit y baseball, track and tennis teamps.
Captain "Hal" Smith of the track
team and Captain George Labadie of
the basebtll team may be called upon
for short talks in behalf of the mem-
bers of their respective teams.
The speaking portion of the pro-
gram will be short and snappy, so as
to allow enough time for the musical
numbers by the Varsity band and
Midnight Sons' Quartet.

the great war.
It has been sid that the German
government promoted the alarming zle-
ports of a food shortage months ago
with a view of misleading her ene-
mies. This idea is entirely unfounded.
If this were the case it would not be
possible .for the German authorities
to stage food riots throughout the
country with thousands of women and
children waiting all night in front of
the provision stores, nor would the
ever-growing discontent of the people,
apparent on all sides, have assumed
such great proportions as it has now
reached.
There is no question that the. food
shortage is alarming and that the sit-
uation is critical.

New York, May 31.-The first dec-

by Frank A. Vanderlip, president of

Theodore Roosevelt.
"I am for Roosevelt," he said. "I
admit that I was not some months ago,
but I have come to believe that Roose-

that politics has to deal with in this
campaign. The necessity for prepared-

Denounces German-
Americans
St. Louis, May 31.-Colonel Roose-
velt spent a busy day here today mak-
ing three speeches in which he de-
nounced the German-American alli-
ance as an anti-American alliance. He
roundly scored all hyphenates, assert-
ing that the leaders of the German-
American alliance who seek to coerce
public men are guilty of moral trea-1
son.
His speech at the City club in thei
afternoon was the only one of the
three prepared in advance. In thisl
speech he added a special denuncia-
tion of the German-American alliances
in St. Louis for voting down a pro-1
posal to take part in the preparedness
parade which will be held here June 3.
Roosevelt's first speech of the day1
was made at breakfast at the Planter's£
hotel, where he was taken immediately
after his arrival. In his talk, the
colonel devoted most of his time to1
