GAME GOES FOR 14 INNINGS
Promising ichigan I lly in Last of
Fourteenth Nipped
in Bud
With Miller and Cookingham pitch-
ing air-tight baseball every step of
the way, Michigan and Kalamazoo
battled to a 14-inning draw yesterday
afternoon. Each team scored once.
The contest was essentially a battle
between the two flingers and both
moundsmen were toiling in faultless
fashion. Miller struck out 14, and his
opponent disposed of a like number
in like fashion. Neither man issued a
single base on balls all afternoon-a
remarkable record in itself-and Mil-
ler held the Kalamazoo aggregation
to six hits. He had a slight edge on
the visiting southpaw in this phase of
the controversy, for Michigan secured
seven safeties during the course of the
fray.
Michigan had an excellent chance
to win in the last half of the four-
'teenth, but Walterhouse apparently
changed his mind at the wrong time
or did something of a like nature,
for he was a ridiculously easy victim
at the plate and Michigan's chances of
a victory were tossed to the winds.
With one out in that inning, Walter-
ouse rolled one down the third base
line which the guardian of that sta-
tion threw badly to first, and the
Michigan shortstop romped to secnd.
Labadie's out failed to advance the
runner but he reached third when the
first blaseman dropped a throw on
Brandell. With two gone, and Caswell
up, Walterhouse dashed for the plate,
but slipped some ten feet from home
and while he was deciding just what
the next move would .be, "Red" Mullin
slapped the ball on him and every-
one startdtl home to a dinner which
was already 45 minutes late.
The high wind troubled the fielders
several times during the game, but it
did not materially affect the result.
Michigan's tally came in the seventh
on Labadie's single, Brandell's sac-
rifice and Thomas' safe poke to left.
The visitor's run was unearned. Ol-
sen's hit to right went for a double
when "Bill" Niemann made a futile pass
at the ball with one hand as it rolled
by on the ground. The runner reached
third when a strike eluded "Morrie"
Dunne, and he scored on Caswell's

tomorrow afternoon they will notice,

Whence come these workers of dark

SMITH OUTLINES PRESS WORK
Michigan Manager of U. P. Tells Jour-
nalist Students About Organization
The modern press association, with
special reference to the United Press,
its organization, means of gathering
news and distributing it, formed the
subsince of the talk given by S. D. R.
Smith, Michigan manager of the United
lress, to the classes in journalism in
N (st_ hall Wednesday afternoon.
Mr. Smith outlined the organization
of the association and told of the
nmany and various means of obtaining
nevws from its numerous correspon-
dents throughout the United States and
Europe. He explained that in its strue-
tare the association was similar to
that of a daily newspa'per, operated
on a larger scale.

,E1G E NTS MAY CONSIDER PLAN
he:msfor the establishment of a
department of military engineering
in connection with the College of E-
ginering and Architecture are }being
comlemplated, according to a rumor
in the Engineering school.
It is believed that this matter will
come up for consideration at the next
meeting of the Regents, to be held on
May 19.
Sch a department would be put on
the same basis as the present depart-
ments of the college, civil, mechani-
cal, electrical, chemical and marine.
The men of any one of these depart-
ments would probably be at liberty
to take the 16 hours of special work
which such a department would un-
doubtedly require. The degree con-
ferred for this course would be that
of Bachelor of Military Engineering.
According to a report from Detroit,
Regent Harry Bulkley is attempting
to interest capitalists in that city in
the raising of a fund of $100,000 to
be used in the erection of an armory
in Cat Hole, near the university shops
and storehouse. If this amount is
raised, the $125,000 equipment fund
which the government has promised
the university becomes available.
If the new department in the En-
gineering college is formed, and the
armory built, an effort will probably
be made to co-ordinate and co-operate.

the armory, \the recently established
chair of military science, and the drill
battalions.

SPECILATION RIFE AS TO WIIAT
()I''OME OF MOVE
?1A BE
NO SCOTT-OREGON MEETING
V. S. General Remains In El Paso for
3lexican Leader, Who Fails
to Appear
El Paso, May 10.-All Americans in
Mexico have once more been warned
out. With the army backing up -to
the border in Mexico, all Americans
ordered to leave the country, and with
10,000 new troops coming to re-enforce
those in, Mexico or on the border,
there was considerable speculation to-
day over what the outcome would be.
Many were inclined to look upon the
matter in the light that the United
States had reached a definite decision
not to come out of Mexico with its
forces, until it is good and ready and
all these are but preliminary steps
to meet and checkmate any move the
de facto government of that country
may attempt.
Consul P. D. Edwards at Juarez re-
ceived a message this afternoon from
the state department at Washington
to order all Americans in his district
to leave Mexico at once. He gave the
information to the newspapers and
correspondents as official. It came
simultaneously with knowledge of the
fact that General Pershing has been
told to fall back toward the border
with his forces now in Mexico, in o-
der to shorten up his line of communi-
cation and put him closer to the Amer-
ican border and the re-enforcements
of regulars and militia called out yes-
terday.
Today was another holiday in
Juarez. It was the fifth anniversary
of the capture of the town from Diaz
forces by the rebel army of Orozco
and Madero, and General Obregon,
minister of war remained on his side'
of the river all day with the celebrat-
ing people.
General Scott stuck close to his car
in El Paso expecting a conference with
Obregon, but as the day wore on
none came and General Obregon an-
nounced that he was awaiting advices
from Mexico City. When 5 o'clock
came and the advices 'had not arrived
it was stated at Obregon's car that
there would be no meeting today.
Earlier in the day General Scott had
said there would be another confer-
ence today regardless of whether he
and Obregon received advices from
their respective governments. Gen-
eral Funston remained here during
the day to be with General Scott, al-
though he thought he might depart
for San Antonio at any time. Neither
