OVER 1300' STUDENTS

BLANKET TAX MAKES EACH MAN
IN UNIV. BELONG; S. A. T. C.
AND N. U. GET REDUCTION
More than 1,300 students are now
enrolled on the annual membership
list of the Michigan Union, and it is
expected that the number will be in-
creased to higher figures when the
remainder of the mentititled to mem-
berships have signed up.
Every male member of the Uni-
versity who has paid his fees is a
member of the Union, his member-
ship dues having been included in the
tuition, in accordance with the blan-
ket tax imposed by the Regents last
spring. Former members of the S. A.
T. C. and naval unit are not, how-
ever, paying the full year's fee of
$3.00 but only a percentage of this,
for membership from the time of dis-
charge until next fall.
Life members are to be refunded or
credited with this amount as soon as
the Union receives the money from
the University.
The blanket tax is not of great fi-
nancial assistance to the Union dur-
ing the present year, according to
Homer Heath, secretary of the Union.
The small number of male students
in the University has for the time
being destroyed its usefulness, but it
is expected that it will be a very
helpful measure next year when the
male attendance is normal.
All organizations and -fratern-
ities who have contracted for
space in the 1919 Micbiganensian
must pay ifor the same at once if
I they wish the copy to run. Sub-
scriptions will be received at
room 1 of the Press building up
to the time the book goes to press
when the rate will be raised to
$3.

Booth Tarkington's "Seventeen,"
which has been running for the last
year in New York and Boston, com-
mences an engagement at the Shu-
bert-Garrick, Detroit, Sunday even-
ing, Jan. 10.
Willie Baxter, the 17 year old hero,
falls in love with a fiuffy haired
charmer who comes to visit the Parch-
ers next door. As a lover, Willie is
no favored child of fortune; for his
girl proves to. be an all around flirt
who plays no favorites. . And for a
would-be Beau Brummel, he. lacks the
requisite dress colthes. His half-
fledged soul gets into a laughable
tangle with its intense problems of
wooing and personal adornment.
How he surreptiously acquires his
father's old dress suit, how he and
his fellow swains nearly drive the
Parchers mad with their everlasting
conversa-.ions about love, and how
Willie's impleh little sis-er, Jane,
"tattles," are some of th.) weighty
matters with which the play is con-
cerned.

Work was begun yesterday on the
tearing up of the temporary concrete
floors in the new Union building.
These temporary floors which are
about three inches thick were laid
last fall when it was decided to put
the new building into usable shape as
quickly as possible.
Concrete was chosen because it was
less expensive than a temporary wood
floor, also easier and cheaper to lay
and much more convenient to keep
clean when subjected to hard usage..
The work of ripping them up envolves
a great deal of labor, both in the
breaking up of the concrete by hand
with sledges and in carrying out the
heavy material. It will require about
two weeks to complete the job.
The specifications for the building
call for tile-work floors for the base-
ment, main and second floor corridors
as well as many rooms and also the
swimming pool. The tile contracts for
these jobs yere let in December, but
the makers have not been able to fill
the order as yet as a result of having
been closed down during the war and
not being working up to acpacity yet.
The only wood floor in the building
will be the one on the big dance floor,
which will be laid in the near future.
Shipbuilding on Gulf Poast Booming
Beaumont, Tex., Jan. 14.-Shipbuild-
ing on the Gulf coast is booming just
as it was b7efore the armistice was
signed. The number of workers has
not been reduced.
Government contracts held by the
four yards in Beaumont and two In
Orange, Tex., for vessels for which
the keel had not yet been laid, were
abandoned, but there were about 40
ships in the two ports in various stag-
es of completion and work on them
is continuing. The ending of the war
had no effect whatever on one yard
at Orange which is building ships for
.the Italian government.

In "The Death Dance," which will be
shown at the Arcade today anid to-
morrow, Alice Brady has an unusual-
ly strong role. She hashmanifoldr;op-
portunities to display her versatile
talents, as she is not only called upon
to meet the demands of many strong
strong emotional situations, but ap-
pears as a dancing girl, whirling with
all the grace and abandon ofsthe

MAZDA LIGHTS ON APPROVAL;
SUCCESSFUL IN OTHER CITIES
According to E. T. Cope of the De-
troit Edison company, no definite in-
formation has as yet been received as
to whether the city intends adopting
the new Mazda lights which were put
into operation last week along State
street. Mr. Cope stated this after-
noon that the lighting is not an ex-
periment and that it is being used
with, great success in many of the
neighboring towns including Wayne,
Mt. Clemens, Redford, Birmingham,
Royal Oak and along the St. Clair
lake shore.
As to their possible adoption for the-
entire city of Ann Arbor, no definite
information has been given out and
they will probably be given a little
longer trial before their final adop-
tion.
FILMS NOW SECURED IN ANN
ARBOR SOON AFTER RELEASE
Motion picture productions from th
greatest directors of the country, such
as D. W. Griffith, and Cecil D. Mille,
now come to Anti Arbor almost im-
mediately after their release. Due t'
the efforts of some of the local thea-
ter managers films are secured for
Ann Arbor directly after their run in
Detroit. This is quite unusual con-
sidering the comparative size of Ann
Arbor with other cities in the same
circuit. Among the films to be shown
very soon are "Virtuous Wives," the
new $2,000,000 picture which marks
Anita Stewart's return to the screen;
"Sporting Life," and the new D. W.
Griffith production, "The Life of Hap-
py Valley," starring Lillian Gish.
K. of C. to Hold Membership Campaign
A nation-wide membership cam-
paign to increase the membership of

council of the city organization. Final
plans have been made and the com-
mittees will begin their work within
