No details were given. Reports of Carranza's capture were also being circulated in Vera Cruz. CARRANA FLEES Washington, May 15. - President Carranza of Mexico was pictured today by Alvaro Obregon, who forced hin to flee from the capital a week ago, as a fugitive in the mountains somewhere between Mexico City and Vera Cruz. Official reports from .the fight near San Marcos between the revolution- ists and the loyalists were lacking, but press dispatches from Vera Cruz also told of Carraiyza's escape through the revolutionary lines, apparently setting at rest all reports of the de- posed ruler's surrender. There were indications that the rev- olutionists' attack had not been press- ed, due to Obregon's order in which he offered Carranza safe conduct to leave the country if he desired to surren- der. Obregon's report said Carranza, ac- companied by a small escort, was making for the mountains, but that he was being pursued. While American officials regarded the escape of Carranza as the possi- ble basis for counter uprisings, the belief that he would be able to avail himself of the opportunity was not, widespread. . Some progress towards restoration of communication with Mexico was re- ported today. Dieguez Taken Mexico City, May -15. - Reports that Gen. Manuel Dieguez has been captured were confirmed today by a wireless from Guadalajara, given out by Obregon's headquarters. The fed- eral leader, together with his staff, are now in prison. Prior to the receipt of the message, it had been decided to send Gen. Benjamin Hill with a strong battalon to capture Dieguez. Other statements made by liberal revolutionist headquarters indicate the fighting is still going on near San Marcos between the tro6ps guarding the presidential palace and revolu- tionary forces.

SECRETARIES 1SCUSS FINLNCIL ':PROBLEMS METHODS OF RAISING ALUMNI FUNDS FEATURES LAST MEETING.. Methods of raising alumni funds, and the relation of the alumni to the financial problems facing all educa- tional institutions as a result of the war ,featured the Saturday morning session of the conference of Alumni and Alumnae secretaries, which closed early yesterday afternoon. Part of the discussion from Friday's session was carried'over to the morn- ing session, which began with an ad- dress by Wilfred B. Shaw, secretary of.. the general alumni association. Miss Bertha Ehlers, of Bryn Mawr also spoke on the same general subject of the -Aumni fund method of raising funds by annual contributions. Discusses Employment Problem Preceding the business meeting and' election of officers, Mr. John J. Coss discussed the various problems to be encountered yby alumni and alumnae ofjces on the employment problem. Mr. Coss based many of his conclu- sions on his experience during the war as a member of the Committee on Classification and Personnel of the War Department. It was his belief that college men are coming into de- mand more and more by the bigger institutions and that graduating se- niors are, fknding little difficulty in get- ting jobs. Especially does this apply, according to his statement, where the university or college is near a large city, as Columbia university in New York City. Favor Annual Conference A resolution was unanimously adopted favoring the holding of a con- ference of this nature annually, al- though the place and time for the next meeting was not definitely decid- ed. It was also decided upon to meet jointly with the alumnae secretaries in the future.

They e price accepted, they flew, and they liked it. dressed And they found that Ann Arbor is chigan just as good looking from the sky as it is from the ground. The pilots have parked their ma- chine a few miles frorthe city on.the Ypsilanti road. The place is their aviation field. , Ann Arbor is an ideal place over. -which to fly, and they take advantage of it. (We speak from experience.) If you've been up before; they- might do stunts with you. They did with us. A little tail spin, a side slip and some rolling, makes for some fun. Yet you can have your own choice. The men who have the ship here are all students of the University. Oliver Hall, '23E, who flew the . Belt gium king over the German lines dur- ing the war, is one of them. John L.
