Judge George P. Codd, '91, of De-
troit, will be an additional speaker at
the Cornell mass meeting tonight in
Hill auditoriujn. Judge Codd is a for-
mer mayor of Detroit, having held of-
fice during 1905 and 1906. He was
also a regent of the university in 1910
and 1911.
The list of speakers for the meeting,
including Judge Codd, is now composed
of Judge James O. Murfin, '95-'96L,
and George McMahon, '16. Joseph Fee,
'17L, is to be the chairman. "Big Bill"
Day, '00L, and "Vic" Pattengil, '11,
who also have been asked to talk at
the meeting, have not yet been heard
from, but it is almost certain that Day
at least will come to Ann Arbor for
the meeting.
Andrew J. Green, Jr., of Detroit, a
Michigan rooter, although a Cornell
graduate, had been invited to talk,
along with Day and Pattengil, but he
telegraphed last night that he could
not attend the meeting. The Varsity
band has been scheduled to play.
The tickets for the meeting, which
is to be the last of the football season,
will be given out today. Although the
committee in charge of the last mass
meeting received a number of com-
plaints from upper-classmen because
freshmen were being given an equal
chance to secure seats, the committee
in charge hopes to be able to seat the
men tonight so that the most enthusi-
astic will be on the lower floor, re-
gardless of class. Tickets for men will
be given out, beginning at 10:00 o'clock
this morning, at the desk in the Union
clubhouse. The women of the univer-
sity may secure admission cards from
10:30 to 12:00 o'clock and from 1:30
to 3:00 o'clock in the women's roon
in University hall.

LEADER
Douglas, Ariz., Nov. 4.-Two Amer-
ican doctors and their two chauffeurs
were killed instantly today by Carran-,
zista shrapnel while they were dress-
ing the wounds of Villa soldiers. Dr.1
R. H. Thichter, a prominent man in,
Cananea and at his home town, Bis-
bee, Ariz., and Dr. John Miller were
the Americans killed on their nission
of mercy to the Mexican ranks.
Both doctors were surgeons in the1
Cananea Consolidated company ho:-
pital staff, Dr. Thichter being chief
surgeon. They had just finished giv-
ing supplies to wounded Villistas when
a shower of shrapnel from the Agua
Prieta garrison burst over them. The
four died instantly, and the wounded
soldiers near then] were blown to
atoms during the explosion.
The reports have been confirmed by
incessant rumors on the American side,
and finally by the bringing of the bod-
ies to Naco for interment. The disas-
trous mission was entirely philan-
thropic.
Generad Villa Retreats
El Paso, Texas, Nov. 4.-General
Villa, at the head of his dwindling and
retreating cohorts of several thousand
)Iexicans and Yaquis, is being harassed
by the Carranzista garrison from Agua
Prieta, which is now being reinforced
by troops rushed in from the south.
Villa appeared near Naco today, which
Carranza's general, Talles, is prepar-
lug to assault. Villa still holds stra-
tegic towns in Sonora in direct com-
munication with coast towns.
In spite of persistent reports flitting
across the American border that Villa
has lost Chihuahua, he gave out a
fairly optimistic report. He strongly
affirmed his rights to the supreme con--
miand in Mexico, relying on the author-
ity of the recent convention at Agua
Calientes.
"Furthermore, I support my troops
to the finish," stated Villa, "with suf-
ficient food and munitions. I do not
intend to throw over the fight."

COUNCIL DECIDES
A rhimN Wr PHUE
fl0flllI i VLLUUIVIL
PT s for Receplion of Cornell Team
and RIo ters Found Not
Feasible
NIDHT GYM CLASS IS CONSIDERED
Plans for the official welcome of the
Cornell team and accompanying band
of rooters were abandoned by the stu-
dent council at its meeting last even-
ing. It was shown that the rooters
will not arrive on any special train,
but will rather stop en route and come
into Ann Arbor at different times. The
Big Red team will stop Dff in Detroit,
where they will practice at the Coun-
try club, not coming to Ann Arbor till
just before the game, when they will
go direct to the clubhouse from the
railroad station.
A committee was appointed by Pres-
ientYT. P. Soddy, '16E, to investigate
into the feasibility of having the gym-
nasium open in the evenings, in order
to accommodate the students who are
compelled to spend their afternoons in
the laboratories. If it is found that a
sufficient number would take advan-
tage of the opportunity, an effort will
be made to obtain the necessary sanc-
tion for nightly gym work.
The council took action on the case
of H. E. Ramsey, '17E, who was in-
jured in the spring contests last May.
A committee was appointed to look
into the matter and to make a detailed
report at the next meeting.
A new student council member was
swvorn in at the meeting. He is E. T.
Olson, '16P, who was elected by his
class this fall.
Contrary to the general campus idea,
the meetings of the student council are
open to the public, and it is the wish
of the council that as many as are in-
terested should attend these meetings.
They are held at 7:15 o'clock every
other 'Thursday evening in room 105

RECEPTION AWAITS
MICHIGANROOTERS
Philaedelphi Alniumni Will Greet Team
and Undergraduate Followers
in Qu aker City
JA('KIES WILL LEARN CHEERS
On to Pennsy!
Student rooters and the band are to
leave Ann Arbor for their crusade
against the east Thursday night on a'
special train over the Pennsylvania
railroad, arriving at Philadelphia Fri-
day afternoon at about 3:00 o'clock.
There they will fall into a veritable
hornets' nest of enthusiasm, from the
signs of energy among Quaker City
alumni that are coming to Ann Arbor
daily.
The notable mass meeting that pre-
ceded the Harvard game last fall at
the Copley Plaza will be duplicated
on Friday night, when Philadelphia
alumni gather in the banquet rosin of
the Walton hotel to greet the Michigan
team and rooters. Every effort is be-
ing made by the alumni association
to give the visitors a real reception,
even to the extent of decorating por-
tions of the Walton, that has been se-1
lected as the Michigan headquarters
for the trip, with Maize and Blue.
The Jackies of the battleship Mich-
igan, stationed at the naval yard near
Philadelphia, have completed arrange-
ments to attend the gane in a body.
Their ship's band, composed of 16
pieces, will lead them onto the field,
playing the Michigan songs that it has
been practicing for the occasion. The
sea fighters have been devoting their
spare time for the last few days re-,
hearsing the Wolverine yells, so that
they will be able to join in with the
others from "down on the farm."
Definite rates for the trip on the
special train have not yeen been fixed.
The price will range between $35.25
and $33.25 for the round trip, includ-
ing berth, with a pcssibility of a re-
duction of this sum, however. No
profits will be derived from the trip.
ligo 'Wagonseil, '14, E. Rodgers Syl-
vester, '17, H(enry Rummel, '14-'161,
and E. W. H-aislip, '12-'14L, will give
information as to making reservations
and details of the trip. The place
which these men are to make their
headquarters will be announced later.

Testimony is already at hand to
o show the alleged violation of
neutrality by Teuton officials in this
country, and some of the New York
statutes also have been violated. Some
of the witnesses will thus be 91ige
to undergo both federal and state in-
quiries.
The fire on the "Euterpe" started
immediately after the loading was
completed. The flames broke out sim-
ultaneously throughout the sluip's
cargo of sugar, and then occurred the
terrific explosion.
The officers believe that a bomb
among the sugar bags was the cause
of the explosion. About the same time
a $50,000 cotton fire broke out in a
warehouse of the New York Dock com-
pany. At least 18 secret arrests were
made in New York today.

diplomatic solution, possibly in the
