McADOO'S POLICIES ARE MY POLICIES," SAYS NEW ROAD HEAD Washington, Jan. 11.-The policies of Walker D. Hines, newly appointed director-general of railroads to suc- ceed William G. McAdoo, will be ad- vocation of five-year continuation of government control, or early relin- quishment of the roads to private control, unless congrss promptly enacts remedial legislation. "Mr. McAdoo's policies are my pol- icies, and I intend to carry them out through the existing railroad organi- zation," he telegraphed today to re- gional directors, immediately after announcement of his appointment, which was made by President Wilson by cable and on recommendation of Mr. McAdoo. The new director-gen- eral also declared a "square deal for labor, fair treatment of railway own- ers and patrons, and closer under- standing between, the public and the government on railroad questions." AUTO SHOW TO BE GIGANTIC AFFAIR Detroit, Jan. 10.-Detroit's annual automobile show for 1919 bids fair to outshine anything ever before at- tempted by the Detroit Auto Dealers' association, for the board of directors have just closed a contract for a building which offers much more space than has ever been used. The display room is all on one floor and under one roof. The enormous Cross- town garage will house the event this season. This is the largest one floor garage in the world. March 1st to 8th, inclusive, are the dates for the exposition which the management plans to make more of an automobile show than it has been in the past, including a display of trucks, and tractors, lighting outfits, accessories and practically everything in the gasoline motor field, as well as passenger automobiles. With the elimination of, the na- tional shows in New York and Chica- go this year, the manufacturers are looking forward to the Detroit dis- play as the biggest event in motor car circles for 1919. The members of the association are all keenly in favor of the most complete exhibit in their history and since the infant days of the industry they have not taken such an interest in any one event as they have manifested in con- nection with the 1919 auto show. LIVING CONDITIONS MAY BE INSPECTED That the boarding and rooming houses of Ann Arbor may be inspect- ed as were the soda fountains and restaurants was intimated by Dr. W. E. Forsythe yesterday. Dr. Forsythe s a member of the health service of the University and is one of the com- mittee which has been inspecting the soda fountains and restaurants to ascertain whether they are clean and sanitary. Four of these eating places were found to be dirty and were warned to clean up immediately. If they are not cleaned up immediately, he said, they will be reported to the state food in- spector. The local health authorities expect to make another tour of these places within a few days to find out whether they have complied with the directions which were given them. "If the Regents permit," said Dr. Forsythe, "we will inspect all board- ng and rooming houses in the city. feel sure that a great number of hese places need cleaning up and it s up to us to do it. We intend to keep after these places until they are san- tary." t TRDY TO BRING NURSES INTO 'UNIVERSITY LIFE PARTY FOR NURSES TO HELP TO BRING THEM INTO WOM- EN'S LEAGUE Steps are being taken by the Wom- en's league to induce the nurses in training at both the University and the Homoeopathic hospitals to join the league and so be drawn closer in- to university life. To this end a par- ty will be given by the league Fri- day afternoon in honor of the nurses. Nurses Join League Several nurses have joined the league, others have expressed their intention of doing so, and it is hoped that they will become 100 per cent Women's league before the term is ended. Nurses are especially urged also to attend the fancy dress party to be given by the league, Jan. 24. Should Use Their Rights "This is one of the things that the league is particularly anxious to ac- complish this year," said Doris Mc- Donald, '19, president of the Wom- en's league. "In view of the fact that the nurses have the same require- ments as the other students and re- ceive a University diploma, they are certainly entitled to the same oppor- tunities accorded all women of the University, and it is bur privilege to work with them and to make them a vital part of the league." An unusu- ally large crowd is expected at the party Friday afternoon to welcome the nurses and to make them a part of the University. Workingmen End Argentine Strike (By Associated Press) Buenos Aires, Jan. 11.--The commit- tee in charge of the general strike agreed to end the strike this after- noon, after a conference with Presi- dent Irigoyen, and the President of the Vasena Iron Works. Government troops turned machine guns on a force of about 200 strikers and their supporters when they attacked the postoffice this afternoon, dispersing them. Twenty persons were killed and 60 wounded in another attack in the Vasena Iron Works today. WRITERS BUSY ON MUSIC FOR OPERA Prof. Earl V. Moore, of the Music department, says that the music out- look for the 1919 opera is especially promising. Each of the music writ- ers is in possession of a copy of the opera book and the lyrics, and at a meeting yesterday the progress made by the writers was found to be even more than 'could be expected. Next week there will be'another meeting so that the ,songs that have already been written may be played for the approval of the committee in charge. NORTHWESTERN, MINNESOTA AND CHICAGO WIN GAMES Minneapolis, Jan. 11. - Minnesota defeated Indiana 35 to 15 in a West- ern Conference basketball game here tonight.

Marine Workers Return to Work New York, Jan. 11. - The marine workers voted tonight to return to work as soon as possible in compli- ance to President Wilson, according to J. Stevens ,secretary of the Ma- rine Workers' affiliation. LECTURER TO TALK ON ALSACE SCENES "What I Have Seen in Alsace" will be the subject of a lecture by M. Fernand Baldensperzer to be giv- en at 4:15 o'clock Monday afternoon in the Natural Science lecture room. M. Baldensperzer, who came to this country in the fall of 1917, is now serving his second year as exchange professor at Columbia university. He served in the army before coming to this country and is known chiefly as professor of comparative literature in the University of Paris. He has work- ed especially on the relation between the English, French, and German lit- eratures of the romantic period. He made a thorough investigation into the matter of Goeihe's influence in France, and also personal relations between the United States and France, studying the personnel of those who came over from France to help America in her struggle for free- dom. The lecture will be given in French. Lectures in foreign languages are given but a few times a year and stu- dents are urged to make the most of this opportunity to - hear a distin- guished Frenchman speak in his na- tive tongue on an interesting subject. Y. M, C Ai CONFERENCE PLNS BIBLE CLSSES NEW ORGANIZATION NECESSARY SINCE DISBANDMENT OF S. A. T. C. Plans for spreading a general knowledge of the Bible and its teach- ings- and for studying the practical application of its principals will be made at the "Y" conference which is now being held here. "Y" secretaries, business men and studens who have had training in these lines will form the nucleus for this work. By dividing the city into districts and- then into study groups an effort will be made to reach every man on the campus. The demobilization of the S .A. T. C. caused this reorgani- zation. The new program will proba- bly be running smoothly in less than a, month. Discuss S .A. T. C. Benefits During the meeting, a discussion arose concerning the S. A. T. C. from a moral standpoint. The delegates many of them 'S. A. T. C. men said that it promoted a friendly spirit and better teamwork, and had broken down many social and religious preju- dices. A demonstration of a discussion section was given during the meet- ing. Nine' representative members from the delegation were chosen who discussed an appointed subject while Mr. J. E. Ludwick pointed out the methods for leading such a group. Clubs Meet in Lane Hall Lane hall, the scene of these activ- ities, has been used a great deal late- ly for the meeting place for different campus clubs and organizations be- cause of the state of incompletion of the Union building. Despite its pop- ularity there is always plenty of room at Lane hall and clubs are welcome at any time to hold their meetings there. Dance and Efats Enjoyed at frixer Despite the risque posters which advertised yesterday's mixer the stu- dents were not alarmed as might have been expected, but assembled in good numbers. The floor grew crowd- ed and shoes became dusty long be- fore 3 o'clock. Some of the men seemed to feel themselves back in Northern France and plowed their way through the crowd like tanks on their way to Berlin. All of the 200 couples had an extremely good time, although one girl was heard to re- mark: "My, I wish there were more men here. You know it's so funny but I take much better when there are about six men to every girl." She was a nice girl though. The DuPont Powder company has established a scholarship at the Uni- versity of Kansas. The scholarship is open to undergraduate students in the PRICE THREE CENTS MILITARY SERVICGE. TODBE1APLIED ON ENSTRANCE CREDITS HIGH SCHOOL UNDERGRADUATES DISMISSED FROM SERVICE MAY ENTER ONLY 11 UNITS WORK NEEDED FOR ENTRANCE Siudents to Be on Probation Until Regular Requirements Are Made Up High school students whose pre- paratory courses have been interrupt- ed by reason of military service or other approved war work, may, during 1919, be admitted to the University without meeting the full former re- quirements of 15 units or credits, the Board of Regents decided at their last meeting. Suck students will be admitted on trial, upon the presentation of 11 units gained either upon examiation or upon official certification and 'ree- ommendation by the principal of an accredited high school. In these 11 units must be included at least nine units selected from Group I of re- quirements for admission. This group consists of the major high school studies. Students Upon Probation The students, providing they are admitted under such circumstances, will be placed upon probation and will have to completely satisfy the former requirements for admission as regular students within two years after matriculation, that is to say, after their entrance. Students enter. ing upon these conditions will not be candidates for a degree until such probation is entirely removed. This modification of requirements for admission will take effect imme- diately. A student meeting these requi- sites may make entrance the second semester of this academic year which begins Feb. 17, and he may take ex- aminations here Feb. 13 to 15 or next September, to secure the remainder of the 11 units, if necessary. The fee for the second semester is 60 per cent of that for the entire year. Merits to Determine A student who was or would have been a senior in high school and who enlisted in any branch of the service or other approved war work, such as the Y. M. C. A., Red Cross, K. of C., or other patriotic associatins, may apply for admission. No Time Restrictions No definite length of service will be required, providing it was inevitable- that the student had to'miss enough school work which could not, be made up in an unusually short period of time. Each applicant will be asked to show some kind of a certificate in- dicating which branch of the service he was in. Every high school throughout the state is being informed by -letter of the exception in requirements for ad- mission. Standards Not Lowered Dr. Arthur G. Hall,.registrar of the University, said of this step taken: "We do. not purpose to lower the standards of admission for regular students. But we are of the opinion that a year or two in the army or navy has in many cases produced a maturity which, to a certain extent, will take the place of some of the high school studies in assuring suc- cess in college work. By allowing such persons who are not high school graduates, but who are recommended by the high school authorities, to en- ter temporarily, an opportunity will be given to the real deserving. Those who do not make good will never be- come regular students; those who do succeed will be able to complete an-, entire course."
