Italy to Fight for "Indispensable''
Completton of the Mother
Country
Paris, March 22. - Amendments
safeguarding the Monroe doctrine and
a Japanese amendment for just racial
treatment were among the last number
oC proposals before the peace confer-
ence commission on the league of na-
tions which met at American head-
quarters Saturday afternoon under the
chairmanship of President Wilson.
These and other propositions up to
this time have been in a controversal
state and the commission met today
to decide if they will be included in
the covenant. Numerically the neu-
trals have proposed the largest num-
beg of proposals. They are largely
formal except the Swiss amendment
concerning sovereignty.
fl use's Plan Ready Soon
There is no hint yet as to the char-
fcter of the plan under consideration
by Colonel E. M. House, for settle-
went of the Fiume problem. It is ex-
pected that the plan will be ready
soon, -
The Italian delegation has answered
all advances made aiming at the es-
tablishment of the eastern frontier
without assigning Flume to Italy by
declaring that any such solution, even
if eaccepted by the delegates here,
would be useless as neither the Italian
parliament nor people would ratify.
such an agreement for the abandon-
ment of what they consider the "in-
dispensible completion of the mother
country."
Determine Economic Subjects
The economic subjects to be intro=
duced intoi the preliminary treaty have
been definitely determined by the eco-
nomic commission. These take a wide
range, ,the important subjects includ-1
ing the disposition of German patents,
trade marks, copyrights, and alien
property. The main subjects which
will appear in the treaty are:
First, the status of German com-

How Ye Cash Can
Burn Ye Pocket
What would you do with $120,000?
That is the amount of money which
will pour gloriously into Ann Arbor
before the end of the month as a re-
sult of the- $60 bonus donated by Un-
cle Sam.
A lot of good could be done with
that much cash, but "easy come, easy
go," so the chances are that the great-
er portion of this bonus will go for
the little things, will fritter away ex-
actly as a five dollar bill melts after
it is cracked.
Inquiries as to just what the $120,-
000 would buy if lumped in varied
purchases resulted in the following
suggestions:
Pay for 342,857 hair cuts or 600,000'
shaves.
Mean 7,200,000 dances in a hal

where the admission is 50 cents. The
distance covered in this number of
dances totals to 5,400,000,000 feet or
40.88 times around the world. If the
dancer started from New York. and
traveled in a straigth line, he would
run out of tickets in London.
Buy 1&,000,000 camels, which placed
end to end would distance about 521
miles or the distance from Chicago
to Buffalo. The death of a cigarette
involves five minutes. The aforesaid
12,000,000 would fume for 115 years.
Purchase 51,111 gallons of ice
cream, which amount is sufficient for
1,635,552 C. 0. D3. sundaes.
At 15 cents per pound buy 1,699,-
200,000 navy beans.
Enable the owners to play billiards
or pool for 10,000 days and nights or
27.4 years.
Take in 600,000 picture shows, thus
causing 900,000 hours of eye strain.
Pay the car fare for 40,000 round
trips to Detroit or 20,000 round trips

Council Decries-. w
.,1iob .Rule Hazing
Hazing was the important subject
for discussion at the last meeting of
the Student council.
It was the opinion of those present,
not as councilmen, but as student up-
perclassmen, that the average fresh-
man needs some hazing, but that there
is a point where a definite line must
be drawn. Mob hazing, which inva-
riably results in destruction to prop-
ert andbodily injuries, is not to be
countenanced.
'The outcome of the formation of a
Mob is harmful to the reputation ofr
the University," said alph E. Gault,
'19, president of the council.f
The council is ready to take dras-
tic action should any such demon-
strations occur.t

URGE COLLEGE USE S
AERO TR91NING CAMPS
M1ILITARY OFFICIALS PLAN NEW
FIELD FOR WORK OF
R .OT. C.
New York, March 22. - With a view
to preparing men for future military
or commercial aerial activities, the di-
vision of military aeronautics has pre-
pared a program for college students
which will not interfere with their
prescribed courses, and which will fit
[teem in three years' time for any kind
of aviation.
According to Col. B. E. Castle for-
nmerly of the military aeronautics con-
trol board, aviators will become su-
perannuated more quickly than any
other kind of officer, consequently it is
imperative that the supply of trained
personnel be kept up.
The machinery of the Reserve Of-
ficers' Training Corps has been chos-
en as most likely to bring about the
desired results. The equivalent of
ground school work exclusive of mil-
*itary practice will be given at the col-
leges during the college year, and fly-
ing and military training in six week
summer camps held at northern flying
fields.
JMixer Perp lexes
Formality Hater
Shades of army chow lines and bar-
gain day rushes-did you go to the
All-Campus mixer? They were all
there, seniors and freshmen, those who
danced and those who didn't, those
who couldn't, but intended to, all in
line awaiting the reception commit-
tee ordeal. Some tried to evade it
and effect a side door entrance to the
floor but here the hand of the lawe, in
the form of a janitor in uniform,
stepped in and they were forced to
take their place at the end of the line.
Of course introductions were neces-
sary, in formality it was rivaled only
by the Fresh mixer..
The limited attendance of 500 was
soon reached and many were turned
away. The proceeds of the mixer willJ
go toward the production of the play
"Quality Street," to be presented by
the Masques May 8 and 9.

VARSITY BAND M AKEIS
NEW WESTERN CONQUEST~
CAPTAIN WILSON PLEASED WITH
CONDUCT OF ORGANIZATION
ON TRIP
Due to the excellent showing made
by the Varsity band at the Victory
loan meeting Friday, in Chicago, an
engagement with the Camp Grant or-
ganization for the evening banquet of
the loan workers was cancelled in fav-
or of the Michigan band.
Every member of the Michigan mus-
ical organization was highly compli-
mented, both in press reports and in-
dividual comments, following both the
appearances before the convention in
Chicago. The chairman of the vari-
ous state commissions publicly ex-
pressed their thanks for the service
done by the band.
Registrar Arthur G. Hall stated that
in every particular the band had main-
tained Michigan standards. More than
1,000 Michigan delegates backed the
band, supporting its music by Michi-
gan yells and other "pep" measures
introduced for the occasion.
Capt. W. Wilson, speaking of. the
conduct of the personnel of the band,
during its stay in Chicago, pronounc-
ed himself as highly pleased. lie re-
marked further that instead of mere-
ly being an organization for the pro-
motion of "pep" at games and other
intercollegiate contests, the band is
now an organization capable of pro-
ducing a high standard of music.

Score Points in All of Ten
Events
(Special to The Michigan Daily)
Chicago, March 22 (via the Associ-
ated Press) .-Scoring in every one
of the 10 events, the well-balanced
team of the University of Michigan
won the Western Conference indoor
track field meet with a total of 36 1-2
points. Chicago was second with
34 1-2, and Illinoi& third with 18.
The remaining points were split up
as follows: Northwestern, 13; Pur-
due, 4 1-2; Minnesota, 2; Iowa, 1 1-2,
and Wisconsin, 1.
Wolverines Battle Maroons
The victory was a repetition of the
Wolverine triumph in the Big Ten a
year ago. The meet was a hard bat-
tle between Michigan and Chicago,
traditionally athletic rivals of the
west.
The teams alternated in taking the
lead, and before the relay, the last
event, Michigan led by four points.
Chicago won the relay, but Michigan
finished second, which gave the cham-
pionship to the Michigan athletes.
Johnson Hero of Meet
Carl Johnson, of Spokane, the 20-
year-old ace of the Michigan squad,
was the star of the meet, scoring 15 of
his team's points. In the 50-yard dash
he tied to world's record.
The meet developed several spirited
races, but the thriller was the two-
mile event in which Harry MCosh,
captain of the Chicago team, defeat-
ed Sedgwick for Michigan in a re-
markable finish at the tape. McCosh
nosed out the Wolverine by a ,scant
two inches, after Sedgwick had led
all the way for the last mile.
