ense Front
London, Mar. 22.-The Russian of-
fensive at the three vital points of
the eastern battle line between Riga
and Dwinsk east of Vilna and on the
IBukowina border is being pushed with
might and main.
The German war office insists that
the new attack against Field Marshal
von Hindenburg's line in the north,
which together with the offensive
against the Austrians in the south-
west is aimed 't indirectly relieving
the Crown Prince's pressure against
Verdun by forcing the withdrawal of
troops from the west, has thus far
been unsuccessful and has caused the
attackers enormous losses.
Berlin insists that the only gain
made by the Russians in the new of-
-fensive was that in the Lake Narorcz
region, where the Germans gave up
a far protruding salient. The German
war office emphasized that the Rus-
sians' attae4{ are continuing.
More favorable from the Russian
point of view seems to be the de-
velopment of the new offensive in the
southwest. The Russians' energy is
concentrated upon the strongly for-
tified approaches to Czernowitz, the
Bukowina capital.
The Czar's troops captured yester-
day the Usciezko bridgehead, a posi-
tion which the Austrians had stubborn-
ly held for the last six months. The
town o Usciezko already is in Rus-
sian hands. The Russians are now
again seriously menacing Zalecieski,
an important railroad intersection-.
This is practically the key to Czer
naowitz. Dispatches received here by
way of Rome report the evacuation of
the capital of Bukowina.
Germanus Make Slight Advance
Paris, Mar. 22.-After a particularly
heavy bombardment extending through
the night on the small iaucourt hill
a little over half a mile southwest of
the village of Malancourt on the west
bank of the Meuse, the Germans to-
day succeeded in gaining a foothold
on the height.
This was one of a series of attempts
made by the Germans to advance in
this region today and the only one of
the series to gain success. The bom-
bardment covered the region of Malan-
court, Esnes, Haucourt Hill, and Hill
304. The French guns relied, di-
recting especial attention to the Bois
de Malancourt and the Bois de Avo-
court, the southeastern part of the
Malancourt wood.j

MARCH TECHNIC OUT FRIDAY
Scope of iagazine Enlarged to Include
Architectural Field
It has been the aim of the engi-
neering society to make the Michigan
Technic the best college engineering
paper in the country, and the society
feels that it has come close to its goal
in the March issue, which goes on sale
Friday morning. The scope of this is-
sue of the magazine has been enlarged
so as to take in the architectural field,
and a separate department will be
conducted hereafter for the architects.
In order to make the magazine ap-
peal more directly to the campus at
large, the articles have been written
in as non-technical a style as possible.
Numerous cartoons, cuts and illustra-
tions have been inserted, and the
Transitory Slants have been made de-
cidedly funny. The Technic will be
on sale for 25 cents at all stands and
in the engineering society rooms. It
is free to members of the society.

Widespread opposition to the city
manager form of government, as pro-
posed by the Civic association, has
lately developed among Ann Arborj
voters. Rumor is persistent to- the
effect that the eleven candidates for
position of commissioner are alieady
pledged to a recommendation of the
city manager plan, and some go so
far as to assert that the new charter!
which is supposed to be drawn up by
he commissioners after election is
already reposing in the desk of a uni-]
versity professor who has taken an
active interest in the proposed reor-
ganization of the city government.
In as much as there are but eleven
candidates for the eleven positions as
commissioner, their election is prac-
ically assured, but since these candi-
dates were picked by the Civic asso-
ciation, the feeling is prevalent that
an attempt is being made to forde the
city manager plan on the people re-
gardless of opposition. Consequent-
y, it is predicted that the voters will
restrict the operations of the new com-
mission to a rewriting of the present
charter.
Dean Mortimer E. Cooley, of the en-
gineering college, is of the opinion
that no need exists for a radical
change in the form of the city gov-
ernment at this time. Ann Arbor
has never suffered from any sort of
corrupt politics, and the only changes
thought necessary are minor changes
that make for greater efficiency.
The new charter as devised by the
commission will be presented to the
people for ratification at the regular
November elections.

BULLETIN
El Paso, Mar. 22.-Two Ame$-
can army scouts are reported to
have been killed in a brush with
Villista forces in the Elealle Nami-
quipa district of Chihuahua Ix
which the pursuit of Villa is pro.
gresslag.. Word to that effect was
received by army officers 6ere.
It was the first report of an Amer-
lean killed since the punithe ex
pedition entered Mexico.
Washington, Mar. 22.-Offjciai con-
firmation was received at the War de-
partment tonight of the defection of
Governor Herrera of Chihuahua with
2,000 troops to the cause of General
Villa. It came in a dIsaatch from
Major-General Bell at El Paso. In
the absence of authority from Secre-
tary Baker, who was not at the deart-
ment tonight, the dispatch 'was not
given out.
The news caused grave ppreheaz-
sion In army circles here. There
fear expressed that the action of HeT-
rera, who was formerly 01 'V
staff of generals, will be followed
similar defection on the part of
sympathizers.
U. S. Advance Army in
Of immediate concern to army oeir
cers is the danger which will at one
threaten General Pershing's lines"of
communication. It is expected tct
as a result of the news, additional
troops will be sent to the border wIth-
in the next twenty4our hours so that
infantry can be sent in to the support
of General Pershing. At the present
time there are available, exclusive of
field artillery and engineers, just 5,105
of the mobile force of the United States
army in this country that are not now
on the border.
These troops are scattered ftomi
coast to coast. There is also available
the mobile army composing the Porto
Rican regiments, a native organizatift,
which army officers say would be in-
valuable in Mexico.
May Call for More Tr~ops
Officials at the War departmnent
added tonight that, if necessary, the
14,000 coast artillery troops in the
United States could be drawn on, mak-
ing a total additional regular army
force of 22,212. It is also suggested
as probable that the War department'
would avail itself without delay of
the office to draw from the crack
national guard cavalry regiments of
New York, Illinois, Ohio, Pennsylvania,
Arizona and 'New Mexico, a total of
approximately 5,000 men.

Psychopathic Hospital Enters
Social Service Field in Detroit

Within the past few
copathic Hospital of

weeks the Psy-
tile university

has put into operation a new Out-pa-
tient service in the city of Detroit for
the treatment of mental diseases. The
work has been established in con-
nection with the Wayne County Pro-
bate court, and will have its head-
quarters in the new Juvenile Deten-
tion Home, which is to be opened to-
morrow.
The service was organized by Dr.
Albert M. Barrett, professor of psy-
chiatry in the university, and director
of the Psychopathic I lospi.tal, and the
work will be carried on under his
supervision. Dr, Harold S. Hulbert,
assistant physician at the Psychopath-
ic Hospital, will have immediate con-
trol of the work in Detroit and will
spend one day each week in charge of
the offices there.
The primary purpose of the new Out-
patient department is to act as an aid
to the Probate and Juvenile courts of
Wayne County. From these courts all
cases of juvenile delinquincy in which

the question of mental defectiveness or
responsibility arises, may be referred
to the service for examination and di-
agnosis.'
The Psychopathic hospital here is
anong the first organizations of the
country to undertake a work of this
kind. Out-patient service is a nat-
ural development of the hospital's re-
searches into the causes and cure of
lmen~tal diseases, and it is realized
that the establishment of this branch
will place at the disposal of the people
of Michigan, expert advice and tech-
nical knowledge on a subject that is
too little understood.
For the past three weeks the psy-
chopathic service in Deti'oit has been
housed in temporary offices in the As-
sociatea Charities building. Although
no open clinics are held, those in com-
mand of the work express their belief
that more efficient service will be ren-
dered by working in conjunction with
esta)blished associations already in
touch with the social life of the com-
nunity.
