LLEGE STANDS THE TEST

An interesting visitor in Ann Ar-
bor yesterday was Mr. Aleardo Bon-
avia, a lieutenant in the Italian navy,
who is in this country as a represent-
ative of the Italian government, to
take back five of the Ford Eagle sub-
chasers. Now, however, because Aus-
tria has surrendered, the order has
been cancelled and Lieutenant Bon-
avia will take back but one.i
Lieutenant Bonavia visited all the
important buildings on the campus
and was much interested in every-
thing he saw. One thing that seem-
ed especially to impress him was the
Independence and freedom of Univer-
sity women. Lieutenant Bonavia says
that he is a member of the Nationalist
party in Italy which is in support of
the king, but his opinion is that the
present order in Italy will not last
long after the war.
In Italy It is not considered re-
spectful for a soldier to wear his uni-
form in the presence of women. And
as Lieutenant Bonavia was in the
company of women from Detroit, he
was dressed in civilian clothes.
WAR CAMP SERVICE
A CLEARING HOUSE
The War Camp Community service
is one of the seven organizations
which is to be benefited by the ap-
proaching United War Work cam-
paign. The Civic association is kind
ly furnishing space for the headquar-
ters, and the. organization reaches out
to help and improve social and com
munity conditions in every way. It
does not interfere with the activities
of individuals or other organizations
but rather serves as a clearing house
for them and a means of keeping in
touch with the extent of their neigh-
bor organizations so that the work of
the different ones does not overlap.
In April, 1917, Secretary Baker ap-
pointed a commission on training
camp activities under the direction of
Raymond B. Fosdick, in order to sup-
ply the normalities of life to the sold-
iers and sailors, and also by keeping
the environs of camps clean and
wholesome, to build up the morale of
the men. It assumes the problem of
serving the soldier and sailor in five
different ways. It extends community
service, fosters hospitality, makes or-
ganization possible, all of which de-
velops community betterment.
Each week a bulletin will be pub-
lished giving location and time of ac-
tivities in the city. Every Sunday aft-
ernoon there will be open house at
the Union, and music led by Mr. Theo-
dore Harrison and orchestras. Differ.
ent weeks will be given over to the
entertainment in the Union lobby of
different sections. Big frame posters
will -be placed on the roadways di-
recting strangers to the Hostess
house. They will also be put in the
barracks as a guide to soldiers in giv-
ing directions to friends. Ticket
agents are also serving as bureaus of
information.
FAMOUS MICHIGAN GRAD
EMBARKS FOR OVERSEAS
Grand Rapids, Nov. 4.-Stewart Ed-
ward White, '92, author and a hunter
of big game, has gone overseas with
a field artillery regiment as a ma-
jor. Major White formerly resided in
Grand Rapids and is the son of Mrs.
T. Stewart White of that city.
The. regiment, in which he held a
cmmission, was originally known as
the "Grizzly Bears" and was made up
principally of writers, and hunters,
such as Major White himself was. It
was equipped by a few men and turn-
ed over to the government to use as
they desired.
Many Michigan men, graduates and
undergraduates, were included in its
roster. A number of men left school
last spring, making the trip to Call
fornia at their own expense to be
members of the "Grizzly Bears." Some
few were even aided by Major White.
Thzse are now practically all over-
seas. The few that remained are
probably going now with the Major.
