HARVEY OF PRINCETON LECTURES ON GLOW IN PLANT GROWTH "Bacteria cause illumination in an- imals and fungi in inanimate matter," was the statement of Prof. E. New- ton Harvey, of Princeton university, in his lecture on the "Nature of Ani- mal Light" in the Natural Science auditorium Tuesday night. "Thus it can be seen that these minute organ- isms are the cause of the light of the firefly, and that plants are responsi- ble for the glow in wood and decay- ing matter. "Thirty-six orders in the animal kingdom and two-i: the plant have this ability to produce light. The light of the plants is cast in a steady glow, while the animals throw a fitful light, and need a shake to stimulate the glow. All Classes Give Light "Animals with light-giving proper- ties are found in all of the classes, starting with the lowest. One of the members of the crustaceans can be ground up after a quick drying and when water is added, a light -vill come from the remains of the ani- mal. "Actual production of light is caus- ed by the oxidation, of chemIcal mate- rial in the body of the animal Water, oxygen, and two substances known as luciferen and luciferase, are the nec- essary links in this process. When oxidized by water the two latter sub- stances act on each other in such a way as to produce a soft glow." Experiments Made After the lecture Professor Harvey performed a few experiments to make more clear the points he brought out while speaking. MICHIGAMUA TO GO ON WARPATH TODAY FOR TEN PALEFACES When from out the paleface wigwam From behind the staring moon-face Comes the slow and solemn six strokes Telling that the Evening Spirit Wanders over woods and meadows Lights the campfires of the heavens. Then the Michigamua warriors In their feathers and their war paint Soon will gather round the oak tree Round the oak tree called the Tappan There to greet the trembling paleface. Ten in number wait the bidding Of the loud, rejoicing redskins For before they take the long trail To the home of Michigamua Many trials and many tortures First must show their strength and courage Ere thered man bids them welcome Ere he calls each paleface "Indian" Ere the peace-pipe smoke together. "CUME ON DAD"5CAST HOLD LAST MEETING TREATY PRESENTED TO MINOR POWERS; NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS NOT SERIOUS PI-WR ENTHUSIASMAMPAINT AT SINTRODUCTIGN OF NEW MICHIGAN (By Associated Press) Paris, May 6. - The peace treaty was presented to' the minor powers at a secret plenary session this after- noon which adjourned at 5:15 o'clock. The draught of the treaty is considered now as having passed the final stage before being presented to the Ger- mans. Marshal Foch in a speech at the plenary session declared that the se- curity given France was inadequate from a military point of view, and said it was his personal conviction that the treaty should not be signed. The marshal emphasied the neces- sity of France's holding the bridge- heads along the Rhine, and said that occupation limited to 15 years was not sufficient. The Italian spokesman said he de- sired to make reservations concern- ng any provisions in the treaty not acceptable to Italy. Lu Cheng Hsiang, Chinese foreign minister, asked for reconsideration of the decision regarding Shantung and Kiao Chow. He said that, in the opin- ion of the Chinese delegation, the de- cision had been made without regard for justice or for the protection of the territorial integrity of China. He said that if reconsideration was impossible he desired to make reservation on be- half of China. The Portuguese delegates expressed dissatisfaction regarding the treat- ment accorded Portugal. The protests made by the various delegations are not regarded as seri- ous, since no definite reservations were made by the protesting parties. Italy was represented at the session by Sig- nor Crespi. The Chinese delegation..has appeal- ed to President Wilson to intercede with the conference officials to have China included among the powers per- mitted to attend the presentation of the peace treaty totthe Germans. The name of China is not on the list of 13 states so privileged. The states are: the United States, Great Britain and her dominions, France, Italy, Japan, Belgium, Brazil, Serbia, Greece, Po- land , Portugal, Roumania and Jugo- Slavia. TRADITION.

Type of German Souvenirs Changing Coblenz, May 6.-Soldiers of the American Army of Occupation in the region of Coblenz have been sending tome more souvenirs recently than at any previous time since the Ameri- cans reached the Rhine. At first these souvenirs consisted of German hel- nets, iron crosses, bayonets and other grticles of war used by the defeated army, but of late the soldiers have been buying German steins and other articles made of pottery, NAVAL MILITIA UNIT TO RECORD HISTORY War Work of Michigan Fighting Body Will Be Compiled in Pam- phlet Form TWO DIVISIONS CALLED DUTY IN FIRST DAYS FOR OF WAR In pamphlet form of about 50 prages, a history of the Michigan Naval Mil- itia, formerly known as the 7th and 8th divisions, 1st battalion, Michigan Naval Militia, is being compiled un- der the direction of Mr. Joseph Ral- ston Hayden of the ecofomics depart- ment. Mr. Hayden served as a-lieu- tenant in the organization. Assisting him in the editing of the history are John Simpson, '19L, and Bradford C. Colcord, '21E. Unit Numbered 157 Decision was reached at one of the two banquets of the reorganized mil- itia held during the second semester to publish this history, giving a list of the 157 men including the officers, and a brief story of the work done by the divisions. Organized Jan. 10, 1917, the divi- sions were called, into service April 6, 1917. They drilled on the campus for six weeks and then left for Great Lakes May 26, 1917. Soon the organization was split up, some being assigned to rifle range duty, others to transport duty, and 30 to work in the naval battery. It is a significant fact that of the men 65 per cent were commssoined before the end of the war. Militia Now Campus Society The six original officers in the mili- tia were lieutenants, J. Ralston Hay- den, McNeil, '17E; lieutenants, J. G., Arthur E. Boak, Harrington, '17; ensigns, A. H. Jenkins, '17, K. W. Heinrichs, '17E. Now the militia has become a campus organization. It is expected that the history will appear the latter part of May. It will probably sell for about a dollar. ROVILLAIN TO VISIT UNIVERSITY TODAY Lieut. Eugene E. Rovillain, former instructor in the French department of the University who enlisted in the French army in May, 1918, will arrive in Ann Arbor this morning for a visit to the University. Up until last week it was expected that Lieutenant Rovillain would re- turn to take up his instructorship again, but word was just received by Prof. Arthur G. Canfield from him stating that he had accepted a position with a large firm whose business lay in Mexico. Before Lieutenant Rovil- lain's first visit to the University in 1917, he had been working in Mexico for another company. New Cuban Naval Shipyard Planned Havana, May 6.-Plans for a new naval shipyard to be constructed on the grounds of the Tiscornia immigra- tion station back of Morro castle, across Havana harbor from the capi- tal, have been submitted to President Menocal by Capt.

DATE May 23 Is Selected, Night Following End of Spring Games; Many Visitors Expected "POTS" AGAIN TO BE GIVEN TO BELGIAN RELIEF CAUSE Cap night, culminating the week of Spring Games, has been set for -Fri- lay, May 23. In setting this date the committee in charge took into con- sideration the fact that on the same day the Y. M. C. A. is having seniors from 150 of Michigan's high schools in Ann Arbor to interest them in the University, and also the fact that it' is the date of the inter-scholastic track meet. "Pots" to Go for '22ers It is on Cap night that, complying with one of Michigan's longest es- tablished traditions, the freshman dis- cards his "pot"; it is on Cap night al- so that the sophomores become juniors on campus; the juniors, seniors; and the seniors, about to go out from their alma mater into the world. This year as usual there will be the giant bon-fire, the snake dance, and the speeches, but once again the "pots" wil not be burned. Instead they are to be thrown into boxes and turn- ed over to the Red Cross, which will make use of them in its Belgian relief work. In this connection it is hoped that the upper-classmen who still have their toques will bring them and hand them over to the Red Cross at I- LOAN GOIN( BETTER Washington, May 6. - Sub- scriptions to the Victory Liber- ty Loan as officially tabulated I to the treasury tonight totalled $2,060,000,000. Officials regard- ed this as an encouraging in- crease over yesterday's total. FIVE1YEARCOUSE MAY COMBINETWO 1DEGES ENGINEEIUNG AND LITERARY COLLEGES PLAN NEW CURRICULUM Adoption of a combined curriculum of five years giving two degrees, one, from the literary college and one from the engineering college, was secured three years ago in the engineering col-1 lege, but the plan was rejected by, the faculty of the literary college. The objection to the proposed plan was that five years was too short aA time to secure two degrees, especially when a longer time is required in all other combined courses. A revival of1 this idea or of some other was re- cently raised when a committee of six ,members, three from each college, was appointed to investigate the feasabili- ty of a combined curriculum. Albion Sends Men Here The o14 plan called for three years' work in the literary college, one year with double registration after whicha an A.B. would be granted, and the fifth year in the engineering college, upon the completion of which a B.S. would be given. Such a system is used be- tween Albion college and Michigan. Three years are spent at Albion and the student then comes to Michigan, Upon the completion of the fourth year he returns to Albion and receives his degree and then after the fifth year he is graduated from the engi- neering college. Technical Work Necessary The literary college faculty did not believe that sufficient technical work could begiven in this two year course, but the engineering faculty thought that with preparatory work in phys- ics, chemistry, and other necessary sci- ences, that it could be done. The joint committee which has been ap- pointed may follow this plan or may investigate other methods which might .prove superior. Even if the committees reported fav- orably upon some solutions, it would mnot necessarily mean that it would be adopted by both faculties. As yet the two committees have notsbeen appoint- ed. Dean Cooley expects to select his committee immediately and President Harry B. Hutchins will do so as soon as possible. DUNNE ELECTED '22 ATHLETIC MANAGER Jerome Dunne, '22, was elected ath- letic manager of the freshman class at the meeting Tuesday in University ball.

THREE SPEAKERS DWELL PRINCIPLES OF UNI- VERSITY I BAND, YELLS, AND SONGS GIVE OLD-TIME P U N C H Spirit Fostered for Respect Toward President and Upperelass- men LETS GO MICHIGAN! Cheering, stamping, yelling and singing, the Michigan student body gave vent to the pentup enthusiasm, suppressed since pre-war days, with the introduction of the newest of Michigan traditions-Tradition' day- last night at 1ill auditorium, in a monster mass meeting that bids well to take its place among Michigan's most famous events. "Believe in Michigan" Before a representative campus as- sembly three speakers enforced the principles for which Michigan has al- ways stood. With one representing the student body, another the faculty, and the third, the alumni, every phase of Michigan tradition was covered. "Make up your minds that from now on there is but one institution in which you are interested, the Univer- sity of Michigan," was the keynote of the affair struck by "Ed" Shields, '94, speaking for the alumni. "Believe in Michigan," was sent reverberating through the alrge auditorium by the speaker. "A Michigan student is a dead fellow who doesn't believe in Michigan," he pointed out to them, and was upheld by repeated cheers. From the very moment the first notes of "The Victors" were sounded out by the band, until the close of the meeting, all attention was centered upon the speakers. Tells of Michigan in Spirit "Michigan spirit has never been .de- fined," was the point brought out by through the large auditorium by the student body. "But we know when we have it," he forcefully added. "Traditions' day,' 'he said, speak- ing of the new custom established last night, "will forever remain the day when Michigan students will gather to consecrate themselves anew to what Michigan is, what Michigan stands for, and what Michigan shall always be." Professor John C. Parker-of the en- ginering department, follwed Mr Carson on the program with an in- terpretation of the faculty standpoint on Michigan traditions. The professor did not apologize for representing the faculty, but proclaimed himself an en- thusiastic grad feeling like an under- graduate. "The best kind of a tradition that we can have," he said, "is Univer- sity consciousness.

CARL JOHNSON CALLS BIG MEETING OF JUNIOR LITS Three points of prime interest will come before the Junior lit class at the meeting to be held at 3 o'clock today in University hall. Carl Johnson, president, is anxious to have every member of the class out to give con- sideration to the questions. The most important item is the nom- ination of three men for the Student council. These men will be placed on the ballot and be voted on at the all-campus election, May 28. A discussion will be held to decide the class policy on the inter-class track meet on May 10 and the base- ball series. An explanation of the new scheme for the payment of class dues is the last piece of business on the program at present. The dues may be c:mbin- ed with the tuition so that the trou- ble now incurred in collecting will be eliminated.
