PRICE THREE CENTS CLA5SOF'19 HOLDS A LNNULSWINGOUT IN UNIVERSITY HAL PRESIDENT HARRY B. HUTCHINS DISCUSSES'' 1919 CLASS OUTLOOK LUNDQUIST TELLS OF ORIGIN OF SWING-OUT Class Numbering 695 Form Block M and Then Have Picture Taken at Memorial Hall With the Varsity band playing and a crowd of spectators looking on, the %class of 1919 formally started ox. the last %ap of their University careers Tuesday afternoon when they entered University hall for the annual Swing- out.; Laurel A. Lundquist. president of the senior lits, acted as master of cere- monies ands Rev. Lloyd C. Douglas pro- nounced the invocation. A well ap- preciated solo by Robert J. McCand- liss, '21M, accompanied by Burton A. Garlinghouse, '20, was next on the program. -Before President Harry B. Hutchin's address, Lundquist told how the Swing-out came to be a, Michigan tra- dition, how the classes used to meet in the rooms of University hall where Dean John R. Effinger and Registrar Arthur G. Hall now have their offices and how each class had its own see- tion of seats when former President ' Angell addressed them. "'At the time that we now celebrate the present type of Swing-out," he -said, "the seniors- of former years vacated the seats that they occupied and the upper classes each moved up a notch. They swung out of their seats-hence the term , ,, 'Swing-out'." President Addresses Assembly President Harry B. Hutchins in his address outlined the efforts and sac- rifices of the men of Michigan to- ward the winning of the Great War and compared the outlook of the sen- ior class of tw% years ago to the present class. "Some former classes faced troubled times when they. were i their senior year. Let us hope that the ruler of the future shall be the Prince of Peace." Pictures Taken After March "Varsity" was played by the band and sung by all those present and then the benediction was pro- nounced by Reverend Douglas. Then with Lundquist and Ralph E. Gault, president of the Student council lead- ing, the seniors filed out of the build- ing in the order that they assembled. The block "M" was formed by a line of 695 seniors including 230 lit women, 120 lit men, 97 engineers, 9 pharmics, 9 homoeops, 76 dents, and 30 laws. A slight change was made in the line of march by one group but practically no disturbance resulted so the picture of all the senior classes of the var- ious colleges were taken on the steps of Alumni Memorial hall. --Buy Victory Bonds - Gargoyle's hestIn B ak Number" The "Back Number" of the Gar- goyle, which appears today, super- sedes all previous issues of the year in the quantity of material contain- ed. It nets 40 odd pages of cleverly compounded wit. The bulk of the ma- terial has some bearing upon the guid- ing theme as expressed in the name of the issue. The "Back Number" deals with and plays up the old days at the Univer- sity. The double page drawing of this issue pictures the campus as it was in those ancient times when it was encircled by the famed picket fence; when sleek porkers roamed the grassy plots and the President's ruminating bovine, old Betsey cow, complacently champed her cud under the campus elms. There is a happy paucity of . arti- cles of a long-winded nature in the issue, the policy seeming to have been to present the material in a way at once short, sharp, and to the point. The cover design is by Reed Bach- man, '20. In view of the comparative superiority of this issue over past is- sues, a good sale is anticipated. REGENTS TO SET GRADUATE STATUS Two requests, pertaining to seniors who, on account of their military serv- ice, have been prevented from gradu- ating in June, the other in regard to under graduates who' were also thus delayed, are to be submitted by the faculty of the literary college to the Board of Regents at their meeting Friday, April 25. In the first request, recommenda- tions are made asking that seniors who were to have graduated in June but who were prohibited on account of military service, have their names printed on the commencement pro- gram as students expecting to grad- uate at the end of the summer ses- sion. The second requests that students whose graduation was delayed on ac- count of military service might be graduated with their original class if they so desire. This would mean that any under graduate, by his request, could decide for himself whether he wants his name with his original class or with the class which he act- ually is in. --Buy Victory Bonds COUNC.L DECIDES ELECTION RULES Samuel J.

The men who have seen service in the air in the various flying units during the war are especially enthus- iastic over the project. Such a club would bring the air ser- vice men together and serve to keep up the fraternal feeling which binds the airmen and the memories of those who served in the air. Prof. F. W. Pawlowski, head of the aeronautical engineering department, said: "It would be a fine thing to bring the air service men together and for the aeronautical students to meet the practical men of aviation." T. F. McAllister, '21L, who saw ser- vice as a pilot =in the French Flying corps, and winner -of the Croix de Guerre said: "I would be very much interested in it. We should have such an organization to keep up the spirit and war records of Michigan men who served in the war." "I am interested in the project and would gladly support it. It is some- thing we should have," answered Lor- en Heseltine, instructor in -the Royal Air Force when asked his opinion. William Smith who served as a pilot in the United States army air service became enthusiastic and started active work in starting the club. He need hardly be quoted. Robert Cook of the Naval Flying corps offered "great," as his quota- tion on the subject. Harry Carey who also won his com- mission in the army air service is in- terested and working for the organiza- tion. Profesor Pawlowski says the plan has me instant approval with his stu- dents. With every one who could be found Tuesday in favor of the organization it has been decided to hold a short meeting Thursday evening probably in the Michigan Union. If enough prove to be interested the Aero club will be formed. -Buy Victory Bonds -- RARE RUG EXHIBIT WORTH $500,000 Antique oriental rugs, valued at con- siderably more than $500,000, will be on exhibition Thursday, Friday, and Saturday of this week in the ban- quet room on the second floor of the Union.

"Y"'INVTES PREP SENIORS TO MEE1T Graduating Representatives of State High Schools Will Be Shoyn University FRATERNITIES ASKED TO GIVE MEN LODGING FOR ONE NIGHT Taking up a task usually performed by the University at the annual high school basketball tournament, that of acquainting the high school men of the state with the institution, the Uni- versity Y. M. C. A. han invited one member of each senior high school class in the state to attend a confer- ence in Ann Arbor on May 23 and 24. Organize Student-Guides Various fraternities have been ask- ed by the "Y" to provide lodging for the men on Friday night and break- fast for Saturday morning. Students will be organized into a body of guides to show the men about the campus, giving individual information on the buildings, the courses, expenses, and University life in general. In order to disseminate this knowl- edge as widely as possible, the stu- dents from the hig schools will be requested to give accounts of their visit to the student bodies of their re- spective schools. "This will serve to bring the University and the commu- nities of the state into closer touch, and will be of interest and benefit to the visitors," said A. C. Crockett, '19, president of the University Y. M. C. A. Ofefials Approve Meeting "It is seldom that students, just be- fore passing out of high school, have the opportunity to size up a college community before they are precipi- tated into it." University officials have given the committee the sanction and approval for the conference. ---Buy Victory Bonds- Mystery Shrouds Mlidnight Meeting Wending their ways through the midnight shadows as the clock struck 12 Tuesday night, figures emerged from the gloom and gatfiered between the engineering and medical build- ings on ground recently covered by the old surveying buildings. On the shoulders of the foremost men was carried a small model, which closely resembled the unbecom- ing structures which once stood on that ground. As they prepared for the rites, a historian would have seen that characters from all periods of his- tory were represented. Shadows they represented. The spirit of Ti was present. It was he who was pre-eminent in Egyptian architecture. Iktinos, the architect of the Parthenon became himself in state- ly manner. Among the strange fig- ures was Brunneleschi, who drew the plans for the beautiful dome of Flor- ence. Pierre Corbie, the renowned Gothic architect, was also present. These were only a few of the ancient designers of beauty and symmetrical dines who were present at an inspir- ing moment for all Michigan archi- tects. For this meeting was to cele- brate, with- proper rites, the passing of the old, the ugly, and the ram- shackle. It is the hope of the archi- tects, who have long disliked the old and unseenly buildings of the campus. It is to express their relief, their dislike for the uncomely, and their hope of the future of the Michigan campus that the ar hitects joined at midnight Tuesday In this reverie. They expect it to be the beginning of a movement to erect buildings on the campus worthy of being there and to eliminate those buildings from the campus which are not worthy. Alliedtalian Rupture Grows As -Recalcitrant envoys Iolt JMeetings (By Associated Press) Paris, April 22. - Although the Italian peace conference delegation made no official statement on the sub- ject, a member of the delegation told the Associated Press today that it was considered useless for the Italian del- egates to take part in further confer- ence unless the Allies were willing to grant their requests. The Italians remain inflexible in their determination to be alloted all the territory granted them under the pact of London, with Fiume in addi- tion. The indignation of the Italian del- egation is as strong against the Brit- ish and the French as the Americans, and after the .failure of Premier Or- lando again today to appear at the meeting of the Council of Four, the break between the Italians and the Allies became well defined. In the meantime, Premiers Clemen- ceau and Lloyd George and President Wilson are busily considering the questions of the future of Kiao Chau with Baron Makino and Viscount Chinda of the Japanese delegation.

Of course you can, provided you supply the rigid qualifi- cations which are: 35 cents in cash, age-between 5 and 85, and the fol- lowing information: name of the Pres- ident of the United States, name of the capital of the United States, and the colors of the national flag.
