One effect of the state department's Say Governments No Use - The open air mass meeting planned for Wednesday afternoon at Ferry field has been cancelled in favor of 'another to be held in Hill auditorium, Friday night. Arrangements which were under way for the pep gathering Friday night, according to information from the Student council, were considered by Coach Yost as more favorable to the cause, 'and he suggested that the meeting Wednesday be cancelled. Speakers Not Chosen It has been announced that plans are already being materialized for a rousing affair Friday night, in pre- paration for the battle Saturday at Ferry field' with the 0. S. U. football team. Although speakers for the af- fair have not yet been chosen, it is understood that the program will be somewhat similar to the one held Traditions Day with the exception that the foremost feature of the eve- ning will be the impending clash with the Buckeyes. Secret Practice In Order Coach Yost has arrived at the con- clusion that the more practice his team will get this week, the better his. chances. will be for a victory.A miss meeting on Ferry field in the afternoon might interfere with this programtt is thought, in that it would destroy the object of he coach's sec- ret practices this week. The affair Friday evening is being looked upon as far more advantageous to the cause. Fresh from a rousing pep meeting -the night before, the stu- dents of the University should be in condition to give the Varsity the prop- er amount of moral backing during the contest. Big Game For Buckeyes Rumblings from the camp of the Buckeyes has it that they consider this contest the most important one of their schedule. Word from the Ath- letic association says that hundreds and maybe thousands of Scarlet and Grey rooters will accompany them to Ann Arbor for the contest. The pep meeting Friday night was therefore called by the Student coun- cil to meet the demands of the times.- J..

Lewis, president of the United Mine Workers of America, announced tonight that the strike order would not be rescind- ed unless operators met all demands including the five day week. Operators Stand Firm; Unless the strike order is with-- drawn the operators will not enter in- to negotiations looking to an adjust- ment of the difference according to Thomas Brewster, head of the coal operators committee. The conference tomorrow will be' attended by Secretary Wilson and the full scale committee representing: miners and operators, each committee comprising 32 members, but t'ie gen- eral view of each group was that nothing would conie of the meeting. Wilson Stilr HJopeful Secretary Wilson, acting as govern- ment mediator, still was hopeful to- night, however, that the faction would get together and not plunge the coun- try into a strike at, the beginning of winter with not more than a month's stock of coal on h'and. Shell Floats On Waves Of Huron Rafts, punts; rowboats, canoes, and accasionally sail-boats and motor boats have plied the Huron for years, but Sunday morning its sleep was broken by the mighty strokes of eight lusty oarsmen who pulled the first eight-oared shell that has ever floated .on the river up the waters of Argo UNION CALSATTENTION TO RV1LING ON WOMEN CARDINAL CHUE'"ED So high did enthusiasm run-for the Uniiversity's distinguished visitor yesterday that Cardinal Mercier had a chance to witness Michigan student pep before .leaving. As hi car was stand- ing on William street, he appear- ed upon the platform in response to the throng that packed both streets about his car. Upon his appearance hats were doffed and the yell went up: "Yea, Cardin- al; yea, Cardinal; yea, Cardinal. Fight 'em, fighi-'em, fight 'em!" 'The venerable prelate appeared Immensely pleased at this out- burst of student enthusiasm. k' DESIRE TO "MAN'S TO MAKE< NEW EDIPICE BUIINtP LEADS I NFORCEMENT announcement was to set at rest re- ports that President Wilson might dis- regard the advice of the foreign com- inittee and name an America to act nofflieally on the powerful repara- tions commission.

Progress Made Real progress toward senate action on the treaty was made today when the leaders put at effectual damper 'on debate and permitted the senate clerks to finish the tedious work of reading: the treaty text. Just before adjournment the Johnson amendment to equalize voting powers In the, league assembly was formally brought up for action and it will have the floor except for the privileged "morning hour" each day until it is disposed of. It is the last but one of the commit- tee. amendments.

Comedy Club Will Adopt New Rules One dramatic program every month and visits from the more famous act- ors who happen to come in the vicin- ity of Ann Arbor, is the. new feature which the Comedy club is planning for. the ensuing year. This is expected to draw out the best dramatic talent on the campus aid acquaint the members with rrofessional artists. Talks by faculty men who afe interested in the worlk will alo be givep. - New aaiendmnents to the by-laws of the constitution of the club will make it necessary for all members to at- tend the monthly meetings regularly unless they wish to relinquish their membership. This step was taken in view of the faet that attention to dra- matic actiyities must be one qualifica- tion for membership. There are many able students desiring to get in, and people no longer interested will not be retained to hamper the activity. Richard Forsyth, manager, and Jo- seph Avery, president, have called a meeting for Tuesday, Oct. 28, at 4 o'clock, in the auditorium of Univer- sity hall. It is imperative that all memebrs be present at that time. A meeting of new members has already been held and partial plans for the first meeting in November made. Women will not be permitted in the Union after the completion of the building, except as lheiguests or rela- tives of members or at certain hours of the day when members can take them through. Even when guests or relatives of members, the women must use the women's entrance at the side of the Union.- As soon as the main door is com- pleted so as to allow a doorkeeper to. be stationed there, a man for the pos- ition will' be selected, and he will ad- mit only members at that entrance. This ruling is not a recent one, having; been a house rule for some time. "U" Women Not Violators Lately a great number, of women havevisited the building at all ti-nes, and the number of women in the building, especially last Sunday, caus- ed the officials to call the public s attention to the rube. Union officials. state that it is not the University wom- en who are'the violators of the rule; but persons who are in no way con- nected with the University. The purpose of the rule'is to make the Union a man's building, just as the women have Barbour gymnasium and Newberry hall. Probably the house committee will set aside a cer- 1 taro hour of then' day, in the morning, when members of the Union may show the building to women friends. Tap Service ?Also Closed Women vill be allowed'in the tap room only between 11 and 12 o'Aock on Friday and Saturday nights, but at all other times they will be, refused service. Owing to the unfinished con- dition of the building, the Union has neglected to observe the rule, but of- ficials state that it will be vigorously I enforced in the future.

This boat was sent up by the Detroit Boat tclub to give 20 of its members who are enrolled at the Unuiversity a chance to practice at the sport. Present a'ccommodations for the craft are poor, for the ice houses on the west shore of the river above the small dam were the only places large enough to house its 65 foot length. There is no float from which to launch the boat and the oarsmen have to walk out iito the waters with their burden. Aregular float will be pro-' vided soon.'+ The courses up Argo pond offers about a mile of navigable water but if the sport increases in popularity and is taken up by the University, as it is hoped it will, an ideal course of nearly two miles could be provided for on Barton pond above the big dam.
