Difficult
Hadley's
Parts
(By Edna Lucking Apel)
Prof. Albert A. Stanley proved him-
self once again an able composer as
well as conductor when he presented
his perfectly tained Choral union in
his own composition, "Fair Land of
Freedom," last evening in Hill audi-
torium. Miss Lois Johnston, soprano
and Robert Dieterle, \'18, baritone, ably
carried the solo parts in his number.
The second choral work on the pro-
gram was Hadley's "Ode to Music,"
a work divided into ten main sec-
tions, each illustrating some phase of
music's expressiosn. The orchestral
pretude establislies an atmospheric
setting which heralds the chorus, lead-
ing a lovely melody for sopranos, fol-
lowed by the solo voices of Lois John-
s'ton, soprano; Merle Alcock, contral-
to; Arthur Hackett, tenor; and Gustaf
Holmquist, bass.
Holmquist in Solo
The deep, powerful voice of Mr.
Holmquist was well-suited to the bar-
itone solo following in the second sec-
tion. In the "Play Song," the sopranos
and altos figure In the roles of child-
ren in alternate broadly-phrased mel-
odies. This is followed by the "Sleep
Song," and in turn by the spirited, en-
ergetic "Hunting Song of male
voices.
Number VI is a Minuette dance
form in E flat major for women's
voices, followed by a brilliant soprano
waltz, which' was sung by Miss Johns-
ton. She sang with a simple directness
and lack of affectation, her voice dis-
playing a sympathetic and resonant
quality of bell-like clearness.
Chors Sings of War
After this solo, the chorus suddenly
shouts in fortissimo, "Break off!
Dance no more!" and the War Chorus
is ushered in by forceful trumpet calls.
The terrors of battle are emphasized
by a vivid treatment of orchestral
forces ending in a compelling lima
of victory.
The bursts of triumph are checked
by the quartette's sniging "Oh, Music,
Mourn the Dead," recalling the mar-
tyrs of the victory, and concluding
with the closing strains of "The Star
Spangled Banner."
Symphony Poetical
The Symphony and the Iris follow-
ing are highly poetical, while the mas-
sive choral-like ending of Part X, the
"Sea and Shore" with its alternations
of solo voices chorus concludes the
program in a swee#ing climax.
Due to war conditions the Choral
union is smaller than those of former
years, possessing only 250 members,
but the added enthusiasm displayed by
the present members makes up for the
deficiency in numbers.

PROGRAMS
. .
Ossip Gabrilowitsch, conductor of
the Detroit Symphony orchestra and
pianoforte virtuoso, will present the
Brahm's Concerto in B flat at the third
May Festival concert at 2:30 o'clock
this afternoon in Hill auditorium.
Famous Pianist to Appear
Gabrilowitsch is easily one of the
greatest of modern pianists and the
number he has chosen requires a tech-
nical ability such as only an artist of
this caliber can furnish. It will em-
brace the four movements: Allegro
non troppo; Allegro appassionato;
Andante; and Allegretto grazioso.
The two orchestral numbers by the
Chicago Symphony orchestra for this
concert will be the Bach Suite No. 3,
in D Major comprising the Overture;
Air; Gavotte I and II; Bourree; and
Gigue; and Beethoven's Symphony No.
3, "Eroica" in E flat. The latter num-
ber is divided into an Allegro con-
brio; Marcia funebre; Scherzo; and
Finale.
Homer Is Evening Soloist
Genuine enthusiasm is bound to
greet the appearance of Mme. Louise
Homer, contralto, one of Ann Arbor's
favorites, when she appears as soloist
for tonight's concert. In addition to
a voice of rare quality, Madame Hom-
er possesses a radiant personality
which wins her audience even be-
fore she has uttered a note.
She has attained a'leading position
among contraltos and is a regular vis-
itor to Ann Arbor. Her numbers on
the program will be the Bach aria,
"My Heart Ever Faithful," "Connal tu
le pays" and "Gavotte" from "Mignon,"
and the "O don fatale" aria from Ver-
di's "Don Carlos."
Orchestra Opens Program
The orchestra will open the pro-
gram with Dvoraks overture, "Carne-
val." Mozart's Symphony in G mino,
and "The Enchanted Forest" by d'Indy
will be other orchestral numbers and
the program will be fittingly closed
with the entrancing "Sylvia" suite by
Delibes. This last number embraces
a Prelude - Les Chassereusses; In-
termezzo et Valse lente; Pizzicati; and
Cortege de Bacchus.

UA RTERMS IMPOSSIBLE
Gives German Delegation Text of Notes
Sent to Clemencean in
Protest
EBERT REITERATES STAND
AGAINST PROPOSED TERMS
(By Associated Press)
Berlin, May 15. - Count Von
Brockdorff-Rantzau, the head of the
German peace delegation, in commu-
nicating to the members of the Ger-
man delegation the text of three notes
he sent to Premier Clemenceau, point-
ed out that the peace treaty in. its
present form could not be accepted,
and could not be signed because it was
impossible to fulfill its terms.
Sign Only Fulfillments
Dispatches from Versailles reporting
the count's action add that he told
the German delegation it would sign
nothing it did not intend to fulfill.
The delegation, he continued, would
endeavor to improve the treaty and
make its signing possible.
Berlin, May 15.-Frederick Evert,
the German president, in a statement
made to the newspaper Vorwaerts has
reiterated his opposition to the peace
terms submitted by the Entente, de-
claring them unreconcilible with con-
science and reason and insisting that
they must be fundamently corrected.
Above all, practical negotiations were
necessary, he declared, and these
would result in the attainment of a
worthy peace if a return were made
to the 14 points.
Will Hold Out Hope
"As long asrone remnant of hope
remains that reason will triumph"
continued President Ebert, "we will
not speak our last word, but should
it prove that this mailed-fist peace is
to be imposed upon us, we shall have
to make our decisions.
"Today I still hope that the attempt
will not be made to extract from the
German nation an assent which
would be nothing but a lie born of
desperation. We must keep faith with
our countrymen who are threatened
with suffocation by foreign violence
and be ready to carry out the hard-
est resolve."
ADD NEW FEATURES
TO FROSH FROLIC
Appetizing refreshments, unusual
features, and unique favors are only a
few of the things by which the so-
cial committee expects to distinguish
from like entertainments of the fresh-
man class, the Frosh Frolic to be giv-
en tonight in Barbour gymnasium.
The gymnasium is a mass of color
in preparation for the dance.. Ferns
and palms have been tastefully placed
around the hall to conceal any of the;
harsh outlines of the building.
"Henri" and his colleagues of the
Ponchartrain orchestra, Detroit's best,
will start promptly at 9 o'clock to play
for the dance, continuing until a late
hour of the night.
Elaborate programs will be handed
out at the door. Ice cream, cake, and
punch will serve as refreshments for
the Frolic and will be served through-
out the evening. As upperclassmen.
have been invited to attend the dance
it is expected that the remaining 50
tickets which are on sale a the Un-
ion for $2.20 will be dispo ed of by
noon. White trousers and blue coats
are in vogue for the men.

pus organizations must submit their
accounts together with their balance
sheets, to Registrar Arthur G. Hall
for auditing before June 15, unless, by
special permit, an extension of time is
granted to any such organization.
This requirement was made a necess-
ity by the action of the Board of Re-
gent, some years ago.
Registrar Hall stated yesterday that
he believed the accounts have been
kept somewhat loosely during the first
part of this year, the reason being that
oraginzations and classes were great-
ly disorganized. In spite of this hand-
icap the same rules regarding audit-
ing will be in effect this year. Letters
also informing the treasurers of the
requirement will be mailed within. the
next two or three weeks.
'C-5 BREAKS MOORINGS1
DELAYS ATHIANTIC TRIP
DESTROYER SENT TO BRING DOWN
EMPTY "SHIP" WITH
GUNS
(By Associated Press)
St. Johns, Newfoundland, May 15.-
Plans of the United States navy for a
trans-Atlantic flight by a dirigible re-
ceived a serious lt this afternoon
[when the giant "blimp" C-5 burst
from her moorings in a gale, and was
swept out to sea shortly after she ar-
rived from Montauk Point, after be-
ing in the air continuously for 25
hours and 45 minutes.
Destroyer Sent in Pursuit.
The destroyer Edwards immediately
set out in pursuit with orders to
bringthe big gas bag down with an-
ti-air artillery fire if necessary. Even
if the Edwards is able to rescue the
airship before sbme serious misfortune
befalls her, it will require some time
to repair the damage which will re-
sult from her fall into the ocean.
Washington, May 15.-Navy depart-
ment officials were greatly disappoint-
ed upon receiving information of the
accident to the C-5 which has abrupt-
ly ter-minated plans for sending the di-
rigible across the Atlantic, in the
wake of the seaplanes starting from
Trepassey Bay. It was said immedi-
ately upon recepit of the official re-
ports that'the attempt to cross the At-
lantic with a dirigible of the same type
would not be abadoned but that an-
other ship would be made ready to take
the place of the C-5, which probably
will be a total loss.
No Casualties
The official report to the Navy De-
partment reads: "Dirigible C-5 broke
adrift from moorings Pleasantville.
Rip cord broke. No one aboard. No
casualties. U. S. S. Edwards proceed-
ing in northeasterly direction with in-
structions to bring down with anti-
aircraft fire."

pointed Thursday the literary com-
mittee which will confer with a like,
body from the engineering college as
to the feasibility of making the engin-

ing which time two degrees would be
received.

John R. Effinger, chairman; Prof. I.
Leo Sharfman, and Prof. H. M. Ran-
dall. Owing to the absence of Dean

day when it is thought that he will
make the appointments. As soon as

SOPHOMORES CROWD PHYSICS
LECTURE ROOM AT PEP
MEETING
RALPH GAULT SPEAKS
FOR STUDENT COUNCIL
Lambert and McClintock Encourage
Class Sport and Campus
Activities
As the first step in deciding the su-
premacy of the present underclasses
on the campus the tug-of-war will be
"pulled off" at 4 o'clock this afternoon
across the river near the Wall street
bridge.
Sophomores crowded the West
Physics lecture room Thursday night
at their pep meeting. Ralph E. Gault,
'21L, president of Student council, pre-
sided at the meeting and spoke on
behalf of the council. "All that the
council asks of you men of '21," he
said, "is that you don't congregate in
mobs and destroy property if you deem
it necessary to show a freshman his
place. We leave the rest to you."
Wants All Out
"Paddie" Lambert, '19L spoke to the
sophomores about entering into class
and campus activities and the value
of them. Jim McClintock, '21L, urg-
ed every man to be on hand for each
of the contests and to bring any other
sophomore with him who had not at-
tended the pep meeting. "The fresh-
men need a trimming," he said. "Get
out, and give, it to them. Organize."
Carl T. Hogan, .20E, chairman of
the Spring games committee, explain-
ed the games to the men. Sophomores
will meet at the gymnasium at 3:15
o'clock Friday afternoon and the
freshmen will meet at the flag pole
at the same time. Every man will be
daubed with paint and under the lead-
ership of their captains will march at
3:30 to the river. No man will be
allowed to contest if he does notwear
tennis shoes.
20 Minute Tugs
Three tugs will be pulled by the
teams of different weights, each to last
20 minutes. One revolver shot will
start the pull-and two shots will stop
it. The height of the river is so ab-
normal this year that neither of the
teams will be allowed to pull its rival
into the river. "Without a doubt,"
said Hogan, "some of the men will get
wet but we cannot take chances on
having the men over their depth in the
water." The class that wins two out
of the three pulls will take the ope
home.
The sophomores elected A. o. Cuth-
bert to captain the tug-of-war and
Jack Williams to lead them in the
bag rush. Assistants will be appoint-
ed today. Angus G. Goetz, '22M, foot-
ball captain elect, is to be the referee
for the tug-of-war.
Games Count Points
The victories scored in the Spring
games will be credited to the classes
in number of points. The tug-of-war
will count,.three points, one for each
pull. The cane spree will count one,
the relay races two, and the bag rush
three. The class winning the greAtest
number of the nine points will be the
victors.
The enthusiasm displayed at the
freshman meeting Wednesday and then
last night atrthe sophomore gathering
bids fair for a hard fought, sports-
manlike contest this afternoon.
Following are the entries for this
afternoon:
