MAY CALL OFF SUPPER
FAILURE OF FRESHMEN WOMEN
TO BUY TICKETS THREATENS
SUCCESS OF AFFAIR
Owing to the failure of the fresh-
men women to buy their tickets for
the class supper Tuesday evening,
there is a question as to whether the
affair fill be held. Unless enough
women buy tickets tomorrow, the
class will be assessed for the ex-
penses already incurred and the sup-
per will be called off.
The committee has spared no pains
to make the program of stunts an or-
iginal one, the women from the two
dormitories, and the Adams House
having arranged several clever acts.
There will be a special meeting of
sophomore women next Thursday, to
elect three more members of the Ju-
nior Play committee.
"The Piper" will rehearse this morn.
ing, from 9:00 to 12:00 o'clock, in

MOTHERS' HOUSE PARTIES
Several fraternities have taken ad-
vantage of the May Festival week-
end to institute a new custom, that
of holding a mothers' house-party.
House-parties have come to be taken
as a matter of course in most of the
fraternities and house-clubs, when a
date is set aside and everyone writes
to his "best girl" back in Akron or
Pontiac asking her to come to Ann
Arbor. But the idea of a party for
the mothers is new with most of the
organizations on the campus. The
plan is an excellent one and might
well be adopted by every fraternity
and house-club at Michigan . By in-
viting the mothers to Ann Arbor for
a week-end party, interest is uncon-
sciously stimulated in the students
and their environments, individually,
and also in the university as a whole.
The meeting of mothers and sons
with other mothers and sons right
here in the whirl of college life, and
college activities will tend to greatly
benefit all concerned. It is a pro-
gressive step that all of the organ-
izations would do well to follow.
Ypsi Men to Stage Vaudeville'
Men of the Normal college at Ypsi-
lanti will put on a play at the Ypsi-
lanti opera house on Thursday eve-
ning. This will take the form of a
"Y Vaudeville" and will take the place
of the Comedy concert of previous
years. The management has announc-
ed that there will be nine acts and
each is to be local in character. The
tickets for the production are on sale
at Ypsilanti or reservations can be
secured by calling 663-M, Ypsi. All
seats are reserved and sell for 25
cents.
Military Car on Trip Across Continent
Washington, D. C., May 19.-Private
William Forrest, Eighth Massachus-
etts Infantry, has begun a cross-coun-
try test run from Boston to San Fran-
cisco in an armored car, the equip-
ment of which is of his own invention.
The car has two machine guns. The
trip is receiving the encouragement of
the National Security League and is
intended to boom preparedness
equally with displaying the merits of;
the machine. Forrest will run on
a military schedule of 100 miles a
day.

P. V. RA3[SDELLI, '16, THINKS IT A
CAMPUS CONCERN TO OPEN FER-
RY FIELD ON SUNDAY
Editor, The Michigan Daily:
I heartily approve of the movement
to open Ferry Field on Sunday after-
noons. This is not a question of tra-
ditions nor of the pleasure of the
people of the state. It is a matter of
Campus concern. Sunday morning
is the hour of church worship in. Ann
Arbor. In showing respect for thef
church hour by not opening the fleld;
until noon, the use of the field in the
afternoon can be considered as rea-
sonable and commendable and abso-;
lutely in keeping with the broadest
conception of the purpose of Sunday.

"Y" BUREAU GIVES OUT JOBS
Employment Department Continues to
Aid Men to Summer Places
Many summer jobs are being given
out daily by the "Y" employment bu-
reau, according to Philip Lovejoy, em-
ployment secretary. There are, how-
ever, a great many more positions
open to students who wish to work
this coming vacation.
Among these positions is one at a
summer resort for an efficient wire-
less operator, and another is for two
men at a nearby lake resort, one of
whom is required to put in five hours
a day catching frogs.
Up to the present time about 3,300
jobs have been filled by the "y" bu-
reau, with all indications pointing to
the fact that tre 4,000 mark will be
reached by the end of the college
year.
PROFESSOR HOBBS ATACKED
Fred C. Flegel Upholds Congressman
Beakes in Communication
In a communication to the Daily
Times-News, Fred C. Fiegel scores
Prof. W. H. Hobbs, who is referred
to as "one Hobbs," for his attack on
Congressman Beakes. After going
over the record of Mr. Beakes as asses-
sor, mayor, and congressman, and with
a reference to the popularity of Gov-
ernor Ferris, the communication turns
its attention to Professor Hobbs.
"But who is Hobbs?" asks Mr. Fie-
gel. "What experience has he in
matters of government policy? What
fitness has he shown to assume the
ability to point out to men of expe-
rience the proper method of solving
the important questions of the day?
Have the people ever selected him to
act as their representative or to
speak for them? Who elected him
mentor of the actsof the Democratic
county convention? Does he hold a
public position, and if so, what are
his duties?"
Small Blaze at 207 S. Ingalls
Students rooming at the home of
C. J. Sessions at 207 S. Ingalls were
awakened at about 7:30 o'clock yes-
terday morning by the cry of "Fire!"
Before the heat became too intense;
however, the Ann Arbor fire depart-
ment had motored to the scene and
extinguished the conflagration with
chemicals. Starting from chimney
,sparks the blaze burned a small hole

At its next meeting, the Board in
Control of Student Publications will
choose a business manager and man-
aging editor for The Gargoyle. It is
the policy of the board in filling the
positions on the publications under its
control to award them on the basis
of merit to those who have served in
minor positions on the publication to
which the positions pertain.
It sometimes happens, however, that
no one who has served on the publica-
tion during the year is eligible or ca-
pable of filling one of the leading po-
sitions for the ensuing year. When
either of these sets of circumstances
arises the board finds it necessary to
consider outside candidates. This no-
tice should not be considered as an
intimation that either of the situa-
tions will arise this year.
All applications for these positions
should be in the hands of Professor
F. N. Scott as soon as possible and not
later than May 24th in order to be con-
sidered. Each application should con-
tain a statement of the experience of
the applicant and should be accom-
panied by the applicant's eligibility
card and any letters of recommenda-
tion which he may have.

A NEW IDEA
With the growth in the student body
there has been a marked increase in
the proportion of cases where the
student finds that a policy of life in-
surance will be of distinct advantage
to him. It is in fact rapidly becom-
ing the custom for a father to insure
his son while he is a student with the
idea of making him a present of the
policy when he shall become able to
keep up the premiums himself. Should
the son die before he has finished his
education, the policy would be paid
to the father, who would thus be re-
imbursed for his outlay. We have
a very interesting proposition for you.
