Through enthusias- tie and conscientious effort by the faculty and student body of these de- partments, excellent results have been obtained. In room Z-154 of the New Science building, the department of zoology will install its aquarium. Large ce- ment tanks and smaller aquaria will be used to show methods of keeping alive fish, crayfish, turtles, salaman- ders, frogs, toads, muskrats, etc. In the zoological shop in room Z-159 will be electrically driven lathes, drill presses, and other apparatus used by students and investigators. A representative collection of ani- mal parasites will be demonstrated un- der microscopes in room 231. Typi- cal Michigan vertebrates will be on display in room 346, while the ento- mological exhibit will occupy room 348. Three rooms of the New Science building will be used by the geology department. The preparation room, where the skeletons of prehistoric ani- mals will be shown, is to be on the first floor. Room 332 will show some interesting specimens of the geology collection. A collection of views illustrative of geological features and particularly two large panoramic views of the Grand Canyon of the Colorado and the Baltoro Glacier in the Himalaya moun- tains, will be on view in the corridor of the second floor. A number of lectures will be given by members of the faculty in the au- ditorium of the building. The list of speakers and their subjects will be announced later. Prof. H. A. Gleason will have charge og the botany exhibit. Room B-100 will house the exhibit of the physio- logical laboratory. Here a number of experiments will be set up for inspec- tion by the visitors. The new green house is also to be in readiness for inspection. The microscopic study of the vas- cular plants and the microtechnique of woods will be featured by Prof. W. W. Tupper on the third floor. Many modern instruments, such as micro- tomes, air pumps, electric baths, and photomicographs will be shown. In room 313 will be the plant ecology and morphology exhibits. A collection illustrating the eco- nomic fungus diseases of field and forest plants will be shown in room B-400. Owing to the difficulty of ob- taining laboratory equipment, the de- partment will be unable to show some of its most valuable museum material. 'TED' MEREDITH BREAKS RECORD Penn Runner Runs Half-Mile in 1:52 14 Saturday Philadelphia, May 15.-J. E. "Ted" Meredith, the marvelous Pennsylvania middle distance runner, smashed the world's half-mile record in the dual meet between Cornell and Pennsyl- vania on Franklin field Saturday after- noon in one of the most sensational races seen on the Quaker track in some time. The Red and. Blue flyer stepped the distance in 1 minute 52 1-5 seconds, displacing the old record of 1 minute 52 1-2 seconds, which Meredith himself made at the Olympic games in Stock- holm in 1912. Routine Business Conducted by Board Nothing but routine business was carried on at the meeting of the ad- CHICAGO SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA1 TO ( ARRIVE WEDNESDAY t MORNINGI FRIEDA HEMPLE SINGS FIRSTt Vocnl Numbers by Metropolitan Opera Star Aided by Music of Artists Tomorrow evening will mark the beginning of the twenty-th ird annualr May Festival which is not only the culmination of the musical activities of the year in Ann Arbor, but is one of the largest and finest festivals in this part of the country. The Chicago Symphony Orchestra, many members of which have become citizens of Ann Arbor, will arrive from Oberlin, Ohio, tomorrow morn- ing. At the same time several of the soloists will put in an appearance, while musicians and music lovers from all parts of the state will begin to descend upon the University City. Great interest is centered in the opening concert, which will consist of several orchestral numbers inter- spersed by vocal numbers sung by Frieda Hempel, the coloratura so- prano of the Metropolitan Opera com- pany, who during her four-years' re- gime with that august body has at- tained a foremost position, and whose art is so superior, and whose person- ality so pleasing that her appearances there are always features of the Met- ropolitan Opera season. Unlike many operatic stars whose success is made possible largely through a scenic back- ground and the support of associate artists, she possesses the charm of a successful festival singer. Miss Hempel has been heard in sev- eral of the leading festivals and al- ways with the same enthusiasm. The numbers which she will present at Ann Arbor have been selected with great care from her extensive reper- toire. The first festival concert promises to eclipse any of the opening nights which have taken place in the past in variety, brilliance and solidity. SENIORS APPEAR TODAY IN ANNUAL CLASS SWING-OUT (Continued from Page One) between University hall and the An- gell residence; medics on the walk between University hall and the flag pole; laws between the flag pole and the chemistry building; pharmics on the walk in front of the cannon; ho- meops at the north entrance of th economics building; and dents at tht south entrance of the same building. From the above positions the classes will march into University hall, the senior lits leading, followed by the engineers, architects, medics, laws pharmics, homeops, and dents, in the order named.

Pro- ceeding from the main entrance of University hall to State street, thence south to Memorial hall, the following route will be taken, forming a block "M": East on South University to the engineering building, through the engineering arch and along the di- agonal walk to the flag pole, turn and march along walk to gymnasiums, west on North University to the law building. At the law building th, line will break up into classes and occupy bleachers where pictures of each group will be taken. Owing to the fact that rehearsals for the May Festival are occupyinm the attention of all the musically in- clined, the traditional senior sings have been postponed until next week. The complete programs will be an- nounced later. After today, until the end of the se- meste;, seniors will wear their aca- demic robes two lays each week, on Wednesday and Friday. The committee on arrangements an- nounced last night that in case of rain during the late afternoon the exer- cises and the subsequent march will be postponed. Call Lyndon for a good flashlight.

He himself came home a minute later on a single by Caswell. In the fifth, Dunne beat out a per- fect bunt along the first base line. Newell sacrificed him to second, from where he scored on Robins' drive to center, tying the score. Immediately the Orangemen started a slugging fest. A single, a double and a triple con- secutively, netted them two more runs in the last half of the fifth. Brandell got a walk in the sixth, stole second, and scored on Caswell's double to left. In the seventh Michi- gan tied the score again when Dunne doubled, took third on the relay from the outfield to that sack, and scored on Morgan's wild heave to hold him there, making one complete and con- tinuous circuit. In the last of the eighth Robins walked two men and then hit a man, filling the bases. Slater, the Syracuse twirler, slammed the ball to center field for a double, scoring two runs ahead of him. Thomas threw the next man out at the plate. The Wolverines played a fast, dash- ing game, and appeared to have re- turned to old time hitting strength. They touched Slater hardest in the fourth, driving several directly at the fielders. Turnure and Miller will probably be the opposing pitchers in tomorrow's game.
