Tests to Be Made on Saturday Before
'Local Committee; Several D. U. R.
Officials Expected
The Detroit United Railway officials,
after several.weeks' delay due to the
illness of their attorney, have com-
pleted the arrangements for the dem-
onstration of the hand and air brake
street cars, and will send one of their
small sized cars equipped with an air
brake to Ann Arbor Saturday, Febru-
ary 19, when the members of the or-
dinance committee of the common
council will inspect the operation of
this new car; The demonstration will
take place at 10:00 o'clock.
The ordinance committee, which has
had the entire charge of this pro-
posed ordinance to force the D. U. R.
to use air brakes in the local cars,
consists of Charles A. Sink, chairman,
E. B. Manwaring, and Albert Lutz.
They brought up the plan several
months ago, but it has been held up
in its third and final reading because
of a petition by the car company for
an opportunity to display the advan-
tages of the cars now in use. Ber-
nard Weddock, lawyer for the D. U. R.,
was granted permission to give the
demonstration and he will personally
conduct the proceedings Saturday

cers of the company are expected to

'DECIDE TO MAKE ANN ARBOR
PERFORMANCE POPULAR PRICED)
TWO ARMENAN PERFORMERS AR-
RIVE IN ANN ARBOR; BEING
ENTERTAINED
Practically all seats for the Ar-i
menian concert to be given at the Gar-
rick theatre, Detroit, next Sunday have
already been sold. Although this con-
cert is to be the same as that given
in Hill Auditorium Friday evening,
seats for the Detroit concert are sell-
ing for prices ranging from one dollar
to two and a half dollars, while the
Armenian Students' association has de_
cide to make Friday's a popular
priced concert, the prices ranging from
25 to 75 cents.
Aredis H. Koumjian, '16M, gave al-
interesting talk on Armenia at the
Church of Christ last night. He gave
a short review of the role Armenia has
played in history, especially in former
days. Stereopticon views were shown
of several of the towns and villages
now left desolate by the massacres and
deportations, At the end of his talk,
Koumian made an appeal for moral
and material support for his country
in her effort to survive.
- Mrs. Zabelle Panossian and Mr. A.
Shah-Mouradian, who are to take part
in the concert Friday evening, arrived
in Ann Arbor yesterday, and are being
entertained by the Armenian Students'
association,.
Mrs. Panossian is a prominent ly-
ric soprano of Boston who was secured
for this concert because of the excel-
lence of her rendition of Armenian
folk songs. Mrs. Panossian's voice
is said to be especially fitted for this
kind of music. Several of the folk
songs which she will render are sung
by the Armenian peasants at their fes-
tivities, and are believed to be hun-
dreds of years old, having been handed
down from generation to generationt
by mouth, and only recently written
down. One of 'the songs which she
will give Friday evening, "Groung,"
Mrs. Panossian learned from the lips
of her countrymen when she was yet
a small child in Armenia.
Miss Helen Humphreys, '16, presi-
dent of the Women's league, who has
charge of the sale of tickets in
the sororities, will appoint her assist-
ants today.

"Around the Town"
In presenting "Around the Town,"
the tabloid musical comedy which
comes to the Majestic theater for
three days starting tonight, E. P.
Churchill, Inc., the producers of this
latest musical comedy success, have
endeavored to surpass in the scenic
production anything heretofore offered
in the vaudeville theaters.
The first scene shows a sun par o
of Dr. Schlitz' Tangolitis Sanitarium;
the second scene is a parkway im-
mediately adjoining the sanitarium;
following this the Cafe De Cabaret, in
which a complete stage is shown upon
the stage. This set is probably one
of the most elaborate ever used in a
production of this kind, and in this
scene 25 people are used upon the
stage. The next scene shows a 25-
passenger Zeppelin dirigible balloon in
full flight in mid-air; said to be one
of the most novel and striking scenes
upon the stage today. From this the
audience is carried to the Palace du
Danse on the moon, in which scene
the entire company is seen to arrive in
the Zeppelin. Two 60-foot baggage
cars are required for the transporta-
tion of this production.
A complete crew of seven mechan-
ics are carried to handle the rapidly
changing scenes. Prominent in the
cast are Earle S. Dewey and Mabel
Rogers, two musical comedy favorites
of the vaudeville stage. Among the
others of the cast are Mr. Bruce
Richardson, Miss Alleen Morrison, Mr.
Lee Wilton, Mr. Harry C. Miller, and
,Mr. Thomas Keller.
