DR, 8BBOUR TO SPEAK
BEF ORE WESLEYN GUILD
Speaker Has Been Prominent in Civic
and Young Men's Christian A s-
sociation Work.
Dr. C. A. Barbour, president of the
Rochester Theological seminary, will
speak Sunday evening at the Metho-
dist church under the auspices of the
Wesleyan Guild. His subject will be
"The Master's Definition of Life."
Although Dr. Barbour is one of the
prominent speakers of the country, his
appearance Sunday will be his first
visit in Ann Arbor. Much interest in
his coming Phas been shown by stu-
dents and members of the church.
The speaker was graduated from
Brown university and from the Roch-
ester Theological seminary. He be-
came pastor of the Lake Avenue Bap-
tist church in Rochester in 1891 and
for 18 years he was a leader In church
activities in that city.
Dr. Barbour has always had an in-
tense interest in civic affairs and for
many years he has been connected
with the Y. M. C. A. movement. He
was appointed a secretary of the In-
ternational Y. M. C. A. committee in
1909.
PREP SCHOOL TITLE
DETERMINED TODAY
Detroit Central Meets Everett High in
Decisive Contest on Navin Field.
Two games, both of which are urged
by their backers as the championship
interscholastic games of the country,
will be played today. Enthusiasts of
the gridiron sport at Michigan will
have an opportunity to view one of
these games inasmuch as it is to be
played in Detroit.
Detroit Central, the eleven which
trounced Ann Arbor high soundly on
Ferry Field several weeks ago, meets
the team representing Everett high, of
Everett, Mass., on Navin Field. De-;
troit claims the championship of the1
high schools of the middle west, whilei
Everett is acknowledged the best
team in Massachusetts, if not on the
Atlantic seaboard. This is the first
of the games for the national title.
The second is to be played on the
Polo Grounds in New York City, be-
tween East Aurora high, of Aurora,
Ill., and Hamilton Institute of the
metropolis. East Aurora claims the1
championship of Illinois, and thus of1
the west, while the Institute boys are
among the best in the big town. d
Everett, has always been regarded
as the title holder and the games be-
tween Oak Park high of Chicago and
the Massachusetts school were re-
garded as classics. Inasmuch as Cen-
tral beat Oak Park decisively last
week, and it is conceded that they
could wallop any of the Chicago schoola
teams, it would appear that the game.
in Detroit will really be the cham-
pionship contest.
The game will be played on a grid-
iron laid out in front of the grand
stand, running out into right field.
This will give everyone a chance for
a seat and the management expects to
fill the stands to capacity for the
game. The efforts to get Detroit men
to come to Ann Arbor make this game1
of interest here. Similar attempts
may be made with the Everett boys,
if a western university appeals to
any of them.
CITY NEWS
ypsilnti lJiUtcherj Commits Suicide
Confined in the county jail, on se-
Pious charges made against him by
two little girls in Ypsilanti, William
Ciaspell, a butcher of that city. com-
mitted suicide in his cell Thursday,
shortly after midnigft.
Claspell was hrrested Thursday
afternoon by Deputy Sheriff John
Cennors at Ypsilanti, hailed before
Justice of the Peace Martin B. Stadt-
miller, who bound him over to the
circuit court with a bond df $5,000, in
default of which he was brought over
and placed in the county jail in this
city. Prosecuting attorney Carl Leh-
man and Deputy Sheriff W. H. Es-
slinger had a talk with him after his
examination and secured a confession
fiuom him of the charges.
At 11:40 o'clock, the officers of the
jail were notified that their prisoner
was suffering intense pain and they
immediately secured the services of
Dr. . A. Clark, who, gave the sick
man some medicine and then left.
At 12:20, he was found writhing in
agony on the floor of his cell, and al-
though the doctor was called again,
nothing could be done to save him,
and he died ten minutes later.
The coroner was called and ordered
the removal of the body to the Medi-
cal building of the university for an
autopsy. Although the prisoner was
searched by the officers before his
committal to jail, all circumstances
point to a suicide by the poison route.
A coroner's jury will be empanelled
to investigate the death as soon as
the medical examiners have finished
their work.

State street suffered the same treat-
ment and their contents stolen.
The thefts were reported to the
police department and it is under-

DECEMBER TECHNIC BHAS
MANY FEATUE ARTICLES
"Engineering Etics and Opportuni.
ties" Is Contribution by
J.i .t Bibbins
Articles of universal interest will
feature the December issue of The
Michigan Technic, a number to which
the stockworn phrase "easily the
best" must nevertheless be applied for
lack of a better one.
A contribution far above the stand-
ard is on the subject: "Engineering
Ethics and Opportunities," by J. R.
Bibbins, which consists of extracts
from an address delivered at the an-
nual banquet of Tau Beta Pi in Chi-
cago. The excellent -wording of the
article, according to a member of
The Technic staff, m~es it worthy of
study in a class in rhetoric.
"Qualities That Make an Executive"
is an article by J. H. Marks, superin-
tendent of the university buildings
and grounds, also said to be a top-
notch feature. "Alfred Noble," by
Gardiner S. Williams, is an expres-
sion of appreciation of one of Michi-
gan's greatest engineering graduates,
while "Tests on the Barton Dam,"
from the office of Gardner S. Wil-
liams, is an account of more than lo-
cal interest.
Among the other contributions are:
"Some Neglected Factors in Determ-
ining a Reasonable Rate of Return
for Public Utilities," by Prof. David
Friday, of the economics department;
"The Necessity for Military Prepara-
tion," by"F. H. Atlee, '18E; and an
article by Prof. J. C. Parker, head of
the electrical engineering department.
The research work now being car-
ried on in the different departments
will also be reviewed.
The editors promise that the maga-
zine will be issued shortly before the
Christmas holidays.
