Societies; to Lay out
Rowing Course
propos of the movement to "Safety-
the Huron," the plan worked out
the University Boat club prom-
to preclude any recurrence of the
strous river accidents of recent
rs. The plan as formulated is as
ows: Safety stations to the num-
of twenty are to be installed a
rter of a mile apart on each bank,
ag placed alternately so that a can-
on the river will be at all times
hin a few hundred yards of a sta-
. These stations consist of a
)Il shelter secured to a tree, post, or
er support, and containing a regu-
on life preserver and a coil of
Al rope. Each station will be
ked with the name of the donor.
1 contributing the necessary six
ars for the establishment of a
ty station, Triangles headed the
followed by Sphinx, Alpha Nu,
lphi, Deutscher Verein, Griffins,
a number of other societies. In all
e stations are now established, and
itional ones will be placed as soon
the requisite funds are available.
tion No. 1, contributed by Tri-
les, is located about 900 feet above
boat house. The city has for some
e had two safety stations in oper-
>n, one immediately below the rail-'
d bridge, one just at the bend in
river.
ecently all stumps, rocks, and
er obstructions have been removed
in the channel, thus allowing the
t club officials to lay out a rowing
rse, with the ultimate intention
fostering interclass rowing, in ad-
on to the varsity contests which
y be staged. This broad, general
icy has been adopted in order that
greatest possible use of the water
Ilitios presented by the river may
made. With the promise made by
alumni of Detroit and Grand Rap-
of two eight-oared shells as soon
the new boat house is completed,'
is hoped that rowing will rapidly
ae to the front among university
rts.

So little is known thus far of the
Irish rebellion and raiding of German
cruisers on the coast of Great Brit-
ain around Hull and Lowestoft that
much comment would be abortive. It
is at least certain, however, that the
events are the most startling for sev-
eral weeks. At the same time comes
the news of the capture of Sir Roger
Casement and his pro-German ex-
pedition, captured by the British as
he attempted to land on the coast of
Ireland to foment rebellion.
The French have regained a few
hundred yards of trenches from the
Germans north of Verdun. The ac-
tivities are especially furious around
Dead Man's Hill, where the French
have gained some ground and seem
to be holding their own against at-
tacks from the German side. The
German line, however, has been car-
ried forward considerably by their1
capture of a stone quarry northeast ofi
Bras. General quiet except for ar-
tillery activity holds along the Italian
and Austro-Hungarian fronts. Only
local attacks have been made by ther
Russians. Serbian troops sent from
the island of Corfu are reinforcingf
the Allies at Saloniki. Russian troops1
have conquered Trebizond and won

Senior Engineers
Camp Davis men who are to hold
their second dance at the Union

more general interest.
Tickets for the dance may be had
from E. D. Bolton, "16E, chairman;
H. B. Bartholf, H. H. Phillips, or may
be had by calling at the Technic desk

Activities of Irish rebels in Dublin
and of the Germans in the North sea,
the capture of Trebizond and a wa-
vering to and fro of the lines about
Verdun, with possibly a slight advan-

past several days of world happenings.

~At The Theaters
Lyceum-Detroit
It will be welcome news to the
thousands of friends that Harry Laud-
er has made in Detroit and whom he
was forced to disappoint several
weeks ago on acgount of one of the
most serious cases of sore throat that
he has ever experienced, to learn that
the famous Scot has arranged to close
his season in this city and that he will
give eight performances at the Ly-
ceum theater on the afternoons and
nights of May 1, 2, 3 and 4, and
he will endeavor as far as possible to
make up for the disappointment he
caused. During the engagement Mr.
Lauder will sing an entirely new rep-
ertoire of songs more, in fact, than
he has ever presented in one program,
and while it is quite likely that his
audiences will demand some of the
old favorites with which the name of
Lauder is indissqlubly linked and
without which they seem to think no
Lauder, program is complete, he will
give them a treat of new material, ev-
ery number of which promises to be-
come as popular as the old ones. "Bon-
nie Maggie Tamson," "She Comes From
Bonnie Scotland Where the Bluebell
Grows," "Rosie," and "Jean, My Jean,"
which sing the fame of Scotland and
its bonnie lasses, are some of the
new songs. The seats are now on sale.

Spring--Time is Pump-Time
The warmer days, with their call to the out-of-door life, ask for appropriate
footwear. Throw by the winter's shoes. Step into a pair of light and airy
pumps. Your happiness will be increased many fold, and you will be able
better to appreciate the growing life about you.
The date of the final Cup Debate,
between Adelphi and Webster societies,
has been postponed to May 12. It
had been previously changed from the
original date of April 28 to May 5 be-
cause of conflicting with other cam-
pus affairs, and the second change has
been made because of the setting of
the Shakespeare Tercentennial cele-
bration on May 5.
