THE WEATHER COOL SAND CLOUDY TODAY rbpSir ~Iaitj PRESS CIAO'AM) NIGHT WIRE SERVICE VOL. XXIX. No. 46. ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 23, 1918. PRICE THREE CENTS WOLVERNE-AGIE GAE, READY FOR REFEREE WHISTLE BOTH COACHES AGREE CONTEST WILL BE FILLED WITH FIGHT 'THREE CHEER LEADERS TO FURNISH THE PEP Four Bands Will Form Parade With Army and Navy Battalions to Escort Visitors Amid the music made by four mil- :itary bands, the annual clash between the Michigan Agges and the Wolver- ines will be inaugurated at Ferry field this afternoon. Promptly at 2 o'clock, the whistle will blow, the ball will be ticked off, and the thirteenth annual contest be- tween the two schools will be on again. Paade to Be Held With a battalion of S. A. T. C. men a battalion of naval unit men, and bands from the University, with those fbrom M. A. C., a parade will be formed at the railroad station, and will march to Ferry field. The battalions of sold- iers and sailors will make up a guard of honor for the visiting rooters who are expected in the city about 1:30 o'clock this afternoon. At Ferry field, the ceremonies of the day will start with a review of the . A. T. C. and naval unit men, who will march up and down the field be- fore the stands. The stands are expected to overflow with. the monstrous crowd that will be here to witness the contest. From3 East Lansing 'alone, fully 1500 peo- pie are expected. Special permission h... as been obtained whereby the S. A. TC.men of the school are permitted to attend. Two special cars from the farmer school will bring the team and their rooters. Interesting Contest That the game will be an interesting contest is assured by the coaches of both squads. Coach Yost said yester. day, that he did not expect to take, thedd contest without a fight, while Gathier of the Aggies has been trim- mniig his eleven all season, for the contest with the Yostmen. "The teams will be evenly matched," is the opinion of Coach Yost. "It is going to be one of 'the best games of the year because our boys will have to put up a fight if they want to take the bacon." Gauther's eleven is in better con- dition now, than it has been at any time this year. His team, like Coach Yosts, is made up largely of inexper- ienced men, yet they are men who have succeeded in earning responsi- ble positions on agood eleven, assur- ing their ability. (Continued on Page Three) DANCE AND STUNTS AT LEAGUE PARTY A variety of amusements were of- fered by the girls who attended the first Women's league party of the year, given yesterday afternoon in the parlors of Barbour gymnasium. Twoi farces staged in Sarah Caswell Angell hall started the program. The first had as its theme the romance of Red Cross nursing, shown by twol nurses, who were erstwhile blondined department More clerks, and a wound- ed hero. Emily Loman, Winifred Parsons, and Dorothy Shields starred in this production. The other skit was entitled "The Feet of Folly," and received hearty applause. After the dramatics were over the girls descended to the parlors of the gymnasium. Here they were given a choice of cutting comfort bags, mend- ing socks and hospital garments, or dancing. While 'dancing proved the most popular pastime, quite a bit of work was done in;the parlors. The music was furnished by Ike Fisher's orchestra. Headquarters of Red Cross Move Headquarters of the Home Service Section of the American Red Crosse have been removed from 514 Williams street to No. 7 Nickels Arcade. Tel. No. 386M. FRENCH ARMY BAND HAS NOTED LEADER That Ann Arbor music lovers will be indulged with an exceptionally fine -concert this evening by the French Army band, is the opinion of Dr. Al- bert A. Stanley of the University school of music. "It will be a rich treat for every- one," Dr. Stanley stated. "It is un- der the leadership of Gabriel Pares, whose mastery was displayed in the concerts by the band of the Garde Republique under his direction at the St. Louis exposition. M. Pares is not alone an uncomparable conductor, but he is the author of the most author- itative treatise on wind instruments and band orchestration in existence." There are 61 musicians in the or- chestra, all of whom have been wound- ed in the trenches of France and dec- orated for bravery, many of them sev- eral times. As a result- of their splendid service in the army they have been called the "Blue Devils" of France. Tickets may be procured at the office of the University school of music. REGENTS PROVIDE FOR PAYMENT OF "FLU" MAKS ACCEPT PORTRAIT OF EX-DEAN SCHLOTTERBECK FOR MEMORIAL HALL Payment for the masks which were used by the students and faculty members of the University against the recent influenza epidemic, was ap- (roved by the Board of Regents at their second meeting of the year yes- terday. The report showed that 15,- 730 masks' were issued at a total cost of $461.41, or at the rate of almost three cents per mask. But the fact that many of the masks were salvag- ed, made them serve a double pur- pose. A portrait of the late Julius 0. Schlotterbeck, formerly dean of the phar gacy college, was accepted by the board and is to be hung in the Alum- ni Memorial hall. The board also accepted a portrait of Winfield Scott, which was given by John R. Kempf, '90E, of Detroit. The regents passed a resolution stating that hereafter no portrait will be hung in Memorial hall unless approved by the regents' *committee. Bonds, given by the Chicago Alum- ni, amounting to $3,800, the interest of which is to be used as scholarships for women in the University, were re- ceived. A vote of thanks was extend- ed for the donation by the late Wil- liam H,. Murphy, '12, of $1,000, which is to be used for humanistic studies. The leave of absence of Prof. S. G. Zowski, who is doing economic work in New York pertaining to the prob- lems of Poland, was extended. Leaves of absence were also granted to Prof. William A. Paton, of the economics department, and to Prof. F. C. New- combe, of the botany department. The appointments of H. D. Bronson, '20E, and Elinor Mullett, '21, were made. Degrees were granted to the fol- lowing: William F. Brown, '18L, de- greeof LL.B., La Vern Ross, grad., degree of A.M., and C. Jewet, a nurse's diploma. Raymond W. Fairchild was appointed to a University fellowship. The incorporation of the Law Re- view was recognized. Previous to this year the publication was publish- ed by the law faculty, but hereafter it wil be published by the Michigan Law Review association. The Board of Regents voted to hold the next meeting on Friday, Dec. 13. -General Pershing Enters Luxemberg Luxemberg, Nov. 21 (Delayed). - General Pershing, the American com- mander-in-chief, and his staff, entered the city of Luxemberg this afternoon at the head of his troops. The gen- eral was greeted by thousands of cheering Luxembergers, and with the blowing of sirens and the ringing of church and school bells. The 18th infantry of the first division were the first American troops to enter the city. Yeoman IV. J. Hinchman Ill Yeoman W. L. Hinchman is confin- ed to his room with a severe cold. This will prevent him from doing any work in the navy headquarters un- til next week. COINGRESS CUTS BIG REVENUE ILL Body Confines Decrease to Tobacco, Luxuries and Semi- . Luxuries LOSS OF GASOLINE TAX COSTS U. S. $40,000,000 (By Associated Press) Washington, Nov. 22. - Reduc- tions aggregating $500,000,000 in the yield from the new war revenue bill were made today by the senate fi- nance committee in revising the meas- ure downward in the $6,000,000,000 total for 1919 proposed by Secretary McAdoo. The decrease was confined principally to the tobacco, luxury, semi-luxury, and other special and excess schedules. Among the more important deci- sions today were elimination of the luxury schedule proposed in the house bill, levying of 20 per cent on costly articles of clothing and other mer- chandise, and estimated to raise $184,795,000; elimination of the house tax of two cents a gallon on gaso- line, estimated to yield $40,000,000; reduction from 15 to 5 per cent, or about $200,000,000 in revenue in rates on many articles classed as semi-- luxuries, and a reduction of about one-half of the house rates on tobac- co, a cut of about $54,000,000 in rev- enue. Football Program flMakes Quick Hfit The moment it hit the street, it created a sensation-that is what they say of the 1918 M. A. C.-Michigan of- ficial football program. .Hundreds of the clever little book- lets about the game this afternoon were sold yesterday, immediately aft- er it had come off the press. The five color cover illustrating football, and both branches of the service as well, proved irresistable to the people on the streets, and the issue went like hot cakes. More will be ready for the public today. They will be sold on the streets and at Ferry field, for 25 cents. A complete account of both teams, with all of the information necessary to a thorough understanding of the annual contest, is contained in the book. Highly illustrated, it has a very pleasing artistic effect, and has been pronounced by those who know, as be- ing one -of the best football programs issued in years. CAPT. PUTT URGES CANTEEN CLEAN-UP The S. A. T. C. headquarters will carry on a clean-up campaign here in Ann Arbor, according to Captain G. W. Putt. He says that a great many soda fountains and drug stores around town are extremely dirty and unsanitary. He also protests about the dirty condition of the army and navy canteen on South University ave- nue. "These places will have to be cleaned up," he said, "or I will not allow the boys to attend them. There are a few places in town which are clean and we will publish .a list of these in order to let the men know which places they may attend. I hope that after this is published the. soda fountains and restaurants will clean up their places, as the boys positively cannot attend them if they are not clean. I cannot close down any of them but they will certainly lack the trade of the S. A. T. C. if they do not follow this suggestion." DONOR OF BARBOUR GYMNASIUM ENTERTAINED BY DEAN JORDAN Dean Myra B. Jordan entertained Mr. Ralph Levi Barbour of Detroit and the Oriental women of the Uni- vdrsity at her home Friday. Mr. Bar- bour, who was a former regent of the University, has shown most gener- ously his interest in the growth of the University. Beside his endowment of the Barbour Scholarships for Orien- tal women he is responsible for the Barbour gymnasium and the Betsy Barbour dormitory, now soon to be built. NO CONVOCATION S A Y S PRESIDENT No convocation will be held this year, according to a statement of President Harry B. Hutchins yester- day. He said that the influenza epi- demic, the military organizations, and the coming of the French mission has brought about circumstances that make it inadvisable to hold it. Convo- cation exercises were started here six years ago as an annual affair. Much interest was shown in them by faculty and students and they were well attended. It is the one occasion of the year when the regents, faculty, and stu- dents of all the colleges meet togeth- er ahd are addressed by the presi- dent of the University. QUOTh GROWS SLIGHTLY AS CAMPIGN ADVNCE SOLICITING RECEIVES GOOD RE- SPONSE FROM CIVILIAN MEN Campaigning is still being kept up by the soliciting committees in the hopes of getting Michigan's quota up near $20,000 'before final returns. are turned in. A talk to the men in the naval unit at mess yesterday brought $352 more, and a few contributions are still coming in at Lane hall. The totals to date are as follows: Total Friday, $15,793.78. Yesterday men from the naval unit turned in $367, two women gave $40, and 112 civilian men, $509, making the total, $16,709.78. The teams sent out to canvass the men met with cordial response. Those who did not volunteer showed they were not slackers, but that they were too busy to make pledges at the booths, in the opinon of Mr. N. C. Fetter. Mr. Fetter also said, "The experience of this campaign proves that the soliciting method is by far the more satisfactory way of secur- ing results and for reaching all those who desire to give." The committees will be busy till Monday. S.A. T. C. Schedule Like Girls' School When it comes to schedule the S. A. T. C. has everything on the pro- verbial girls' boarding school with its bells for eating, sleeping, and think- ing. The unit of time the average warrior has to himself is the al- mighty minute. Between that gentle alarm, the first sergeants whistle, and reveille at 6:25 o'clock, mes braves have 10 minutes in which to dress and fall in outside their barracks. Hard on the fastidi- ous dresser, you say? In the words of the poet: "There ain't no such animule." He fell into the discard (or eternal K. P.) long ago. Throughout the day, periods of re- creation occur with terrible brevity and scarcity. F'rinstance, there are, 15 minutes after noon mess in which to write home phone her or eat. Then, there is the well known play hour following the two hour after- noon drill. It's a wonderful relief-a shave, a shine, something to sign- something issued, a mass meeting or a lecture-and mebbe-of course one couldn't forget the possibility of a bath.N After evening mess three-quarters of an hour of freedom; and from 9 o'clock until lights out NOTHING to do or listen to, except an occasional few kind words breathed by an offi- eer about "the conduct of the com- pany" or other antics of peace. THREE MEN INJURED IN WRECK AND CHIEF ENGINEER KILLED A collision between a freight train and an express occurred at Dexter on the Michigan Central lines yester- day morning about 5 o'clock. J. F. Gosset, chief engineer, died at St. Joseph's hospital shortly after being brought here. Chas. Wells was scalded and one leg was cut off. Alva Rogers and Frederick Blanchard, who were from Jackson, received minor injuries.

Dunphy First Navy Night Success At "Y The first Navy Night, held yester- day evening at the Newberry "Y," went with a rush. Fifteen fast bouts were staged, each for two rounds. Some of the men were a little short on science, but all were willing enough to mix. A good crowd cheered them on. A committee of the enlisted men had charge of the program. Another se- ries of bouts, by the faster men among those who boxed last night, is plan- ned for next Friday. The army "Y" has arranged an- other athletic program for Newberry hall this evening. Two wrestling -matches by men from section B are scheduled. It is planned to have some boxing from section A at Lane hall. The usual free movies will berun for army and navy men. TWO TERM QUESTION BEING DISCUSSED President Harry B. Hutchins is making investigations toward a settl- ing of the question concerning the re- turn to the two term system in the University. He has wired to head- quarters at Washington to see wheth- er or not it will be possible for Mich- igan to go back to the previous ar- rangement of two semesters. As yet nothing definite has been learned. The majority of the faculty are in favor of the semester system, but all hinges on the decision from Washington. CROWDS THRONG TO DORMITORY BAZAAR The Red Cross bazaar being held at Martha Cook building opened with success yesterday afternoon. The downstairs was decorated in true Christmas fashion.- The things the girls have industriously been work- ing on for several weeks showed their effort and all the patrons were pleas- ed with the gifts offered for sale. The attractions at the bazaar are many and include "seventh daughter of a seventh daughter," who faultlessly predicts the future; a grab bag with its surprises, and refreshments of tea and wafers. The corridors have been filled ever since the opening and the sales were heavy yesterday. It will continue this morning and will close at 6 o'clock tonight. S. A. T. C. SUPERVISED STUDY STARTS IN EARNEST MONDAY The order issued two weeks ago that all S. A. T. C. men are to attend study hall between 7:30 o'clock in the morning and 2:30 o'clock in the aft- ernoon whenever they do have classes is to be strictly enforced beginning next Monday.. Every man in the corps has been assigned to a room where he will re- port for supervised study at any hour during the day when he is not in class. The lists were prepared by fac- ulty men in charge of military stu- dejts' attendance.. They were read to the men yesterday in Hill audi- torium, where all the men were as- sembled at 4:15 o'clock. An officer assisted the faculty men to read the names of each man and the group to which he has been assigned. The reading of the names took over an hour. VARIOUS OFFICES TO RECEIVE SEPARATE APPOINTMENTS BY U. S. HEAD PRESIDENT WILSON TO ACCEPT RESIGNATION New Secretary to Float Two Liberty Loans to Finance All Recon. struction (By Associated Press) Washington, Nov. 22. - William Gibbs McAdoo, secretary of the treas- ury, director-general of railroads, and also discussed as one of the president- ial possibilities of 1920, has resigned his positions to return to private bus- iness. President Wilson has accepted his resignation. Mr. McAdoo will give up the treasury as soon as a successor is' appointed. He wishes to lay down his work as director-general of railroads by Jan. 1, but will remain if 'the President has not then chosen a suc- cessor. U. S. to Have Two More Loans Upon the new secretary and treasur- er, whoever it may be, will devolve the task of financing the nation through the transition period of war to peace, which probably will include at least two more Liberty Loans, and possibly also a further revision of the system of war taxation.' Letters between President Wilson and Mr. McAdoo made public today with the announcement of the resign- ation, gave Mr. McAdoo's reasons for leaving the cabinet as solely for the purpose of replenishing his personal fortune, and expressed deep regret at losing his son-in-law from his of- ficial family. Wilson to Fill Positions Separately It is entirely probable that the President. will fill separtely the of- fices of secretary of the trreasury and director-general of the railroads. There was nothing official tonight on which to base a statement as to who would be under consideration for sec- retary of the treasury. On previous occasions when a successor to Mr. McAdoo was discussed, John Skelton Williams, controller of the currency, and W. T. G. Harding, governor of the federal reserve board have most generally been mentioned. Paul War- burg, formerly member of the reserve board and a prominent New York banker, and Russel C. Leffingwell, as- sistant secretary of the treasury also are recognized among possibilities. Fourth Member to Resign Mr. McAdoo receives $12,000 a year as secretary of the treasury, the uni- form salary of cabinet members and nothing as director-general of rail- roads. Secretary McAdoo is the fourth member of the cabinet to resign. Mr. McAdoo took a prominent part in shaping the administrations leg- islative policies, and possibly this- brought him into the field of Demo- cratic presidential possibilities as they were being discussed, but so far., as any one knows Mr. McAdoo has not expressed himself on that subject. Since the war broke out in 1914, Secretary McAdoo has faced many economic problems, the tremendous Liberty Loan, and corollary problems of financing war expenses has been his principle concern. As the leader builder of the federal reserve system as' an early advocate of a govern- ment built merchant marine, and in the development of the federal farm loan system, he was known partic- ularly. 3 Conference Teams Clash Today Chicago, Nov. 22. - Football will reach its climax in the middle west tomorrow with Illinois meeting Chi- cago, Wisconsin playing O. S. U. at Columbus, Northwestern meeting Iowa at Iowa City in the- important Big Ten contest. Chief interest centers in the Chica- ,go-Illinois game, for if Illinois wins its fourth victory of the season, it wil have a stronger claim for- the championship. Iowa, Wisconsin, and O. S. U. already have been defeated by Illinois, which has played better football than Illinois. Northwestern is the only other unbeaten team.
