CABOT COME WITH 20 YEARS OF WIDE EXPERIENCE Dr. Hugh Cabot, who is to head the Surgery department of the University Medical school, believes Michigan's future along this line holds unbounded possibilities. "I see no reason why this should not become one of the greatest, and perhaps the greatest, center of surgery in this country or in the world. "This possibility will be enormously increased with the building of the new State hospital, foundations for which are now being laid next to the site of the present hospital. With a capacity of 1,000 beds and with nearly half of the building taken up with laborato- ries and teaching rooms, there will be a wonderful opportunity to accom- plish much in surgical research." Has War Record Dr. Cabot has been i the field of surgery for over twenty years. He comes to the University from the Mas- sachusetts General hospital at Boston, of which he was surgical chief. He was also one of three surgical chiefs at Harvard University. Early in 1916 Dr, Cabot, accompanied by a large portion of his staff, offered his services to the British government and entered the British hospital serv- ice. He was given the title of lieu- tenant-colonel, which he still holds, according to British Army regulations, and placed in charge of what was known as Harvard unit, General hos- pital No. 22, located at Etaples, France. This of course, applied to the surgical work, as the British government ap- pointed an officer there , known as "officer commanding." However, in 1917, Dr. Cabot was made "officer com- manding," something very rarely done, for it then threw additional respon- sibility upon him. He was not alone responsible for the work of the hos- pital but was subject to line duty as well should his services be required on toe field at any time. Thisis in con- trast to the American army, wher staff officers are not subject to line duty at the same time. Fifth Army Suffered General Hospital No. 22 was one of the large evacuation hospitals on the lines of communication, located be- hind the Fifth army. When the big "show" in which the Fifth army played so big a part, oc- curred from March 21 to Aprils, 1918, and during the Lys offensives of the Germans, from April 9 to the 27, there were over 250,000 casualties in the Fifth army alone. Commenting on war surgery, Dr. Cabot expressed his opinion that noth- ing really advantageous to the surgical profession has been gained through the experience of war. Explaining this, he says that the main reason for this is the difference between the wounds of war and the wounds of accident in civil life. They are so much different that they can. hardly be compared. He said, however, that great ad- vances were made in war surgery, and should another war come, it would find a wonderful efficiency in handling these cases. Looks for Progress, "I believe," said Dr. Cabot, "thatthe head of a surgical department like this should live from one to- three years in the future, to anticipate the height to which surgery may aspire. Surely here, with the unity of a State hospital, behind which the State legis- lature stands, wonderful progress should be made in this field. The op- portunity of the State University is a large one and I believe is going to accomplish more in education than the endowed university ever can. It has the confidence on$ unity of support necessary to progress." Frosh Contribute To Haberdashers The number of freshman "pots" sold in Ann Arbor up to the present time is estimatedtoberbetween 1,700 and 2,000. The average price for which these are sold is 75 cents. The fresh- man class has paid a price of $1500 then for these unpretentious "pots." The coming cold weather is due to squeeze a similar, or if anything, a larger amount from the toddling class when the change to toques becomes necessary. Last year because of the obsession for brown felt there was small demand for the gray flannel "pot" or the knitted toque. This sea- son, however, popularity once more dwells with the combination of badge aIi 1c.daaZ THE MAJESTIC "A Rough Riding Romance," pro- duced by William Fox and featuring Tom Mix, will be shown at the Majes- tic again to-day. Additional offerings include a travelogue, a screen supple- ment, and a Sennett Comedy. Mary Pickford in "The Hoodlum," one of her latest releases, proves again that besides having a captivat- \ing, personality she is an actress, of talent. The story concerns a girl liv- ing with her rich grand father who casts aside wealth and luxury to go to her father, a poor writer.

As usual Miss Brady is right there iwith her customary pep and sparkling personality, which em'- anate from all her work.

STUDENTS ILL 0BOOST1# I CAM~lPUS WILL, PARTICIPATE IN COUNTY DRIVE FOR $8,500.00 QUOTA student and faculty members of the University will be asked to contribute to a permanent national memorial to Theodore Roosevelt next Thursday and Friday during the drive for Washtenaw county's quota. Special booths will be set up -on the campus, and it is expected that the University will give liberally toward the $3,500 County goal. The total national fund is to be $5,- 000,000, part of swhich will be used to erect a . suitable monument i Washington, and part to purchase the Roo'evelt home' at Oyster bay and maintain it as a national memorial similar to Mount Vernon. The re- mainder of the fund will be used for Americanization purposes. ,To Found Scholarships Because it is' felt -that no stone or marble could commemorate complete- ly Roosevelt's ideals and his services to the nation, the national counil de- cided that some permanent foundation should be established to realize .the projects which the dead president hoped to see established during his lieftime. For this reason, it is the opinion of the state headquarters at Detroit that a large part of theme- morial fund will be used to endow scholarships and chairs for the teach- ing of that Americanism which char- acterized Roosevelt's whole public life. Drive Ends October 27 The national 'drive will open Oct. 20 and continue for one week, ending on the birthday anniversary of Pres- ident Roosevelt. The plan, according to Paul ii. King of Detroit, state chairman of the memorial committee, is to secure the fund as far s possi- ble from a great number ot' small contributions. A special school chil- dren's day has been set aside for Monday, Oct. 27, when special exer- cises will be held and buttons issued to pupils who contribute. Every con- tributor to the national fund will be enrolled as a member of the Roose- vent Memorial association. - Hog Brings Record Price of $10,000.00 Hannibal, Mo., Oct 17.- An 1,100- pound hog, raised by Louis Harrison, has been auctioned for' $10,000 here..
