CZAR'S MEN TAKE USCIEZKO t rmtan; in ;WIetr 'Thiatr iiMtake Gain : ' fie laonart on 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 SPECIAL METING OF SENIOR LITS ANNOUN (E I FOR ThODAY A special meeting of the men of the senior lit class will be held at 4:00 o'clock this afternoon in Tappan hall for the purpose of reconsidering the vote taken at the last meeting on the matter of class canes.

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.

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. GOVERNOR OF CHIUIIAHUA GOES OVER TO BANDIT, SAYS REPORT EXPEDITION FACES DISASTER Battleship Kentucky Sent to Taupico; Two Aviators Return Safely 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.
