Hutchins when asked his attitude toward the services to be held Thanksgiving day said, "I am thoroughly in sympathy with the movement for the holding of-services in Hill auditorium on Thanksgiving day. They are planned for the bent- fit of the students and I hope that all who are-in the city Thanksgiving day will attend. Large Attendance Expected With the'President and the faculty supporting the movement and a pro- gram which is to include well known speakers and music by the Varsity band and Glee club, the men in charge of the services 'to be held at 11 o'clock Thanksgiving morning expect a large attendance. The meeting will start promptly at 11 o'clock and end promptly at 12, so that students will not be late for din- ner. Program Announced The program has been announced by Carl Johnson, '20, president of the Student council and a member of the committee in charge of the services, as follows:z Organ prelude -.........Earle V.

In his speech he said Anerica was being regarded in a new light by the South American rpub- lics and that they were changing their former allegiance in cusoms and ideas ,from Europe to the United States. "Before the war and for-many years previous, the attitude of South America toward the States. was ex- pressed very well in the statement of an' army officer to me when I first went there 16 years ago. He said, 'We consider the Monroe Doctrine as con- strued by the United States as, The Americas for North America.'

Fortitude had its true reward and the following juniors are now partak- ers with the Sphinx of the knowledge that belonged to Ramases and the Pharoahs: C. M. Campbell, Barry Stuart, Boyd Logan, W. F. Angell, D. J,, Porter, Harold Lindsey, Frank No- vak, Jack Dunn, Robert McKean, G. L. Rourke, and Paul .Burkholder. J. P. Hart, '20, who was to have become a member of the junior literary honor society in the spring of 1917 but could not be initiated before entering the service, was made a worshiper of the graven figure without undergoing the usual ordeals. In spite of the ;.fact that, in the words of the songster, theadesert of Sahara ceased to be a "land of milk and 'honey" when "King Ramases passed a law 7,000 years ago that Egypt should go dry," the neophytes were proffered a very creditable re- past at the Union after the initiation. Harry Carey, '20, Carl Johnson, '20, Bruce Millar, '20, and Fred Petty, '21, gave short talks. Prof. Claude H. Van Tyne, who' was on the program as a speaker, was unable to be present be- cause of illness. , RADICALS GO0ON STRIKE PLAN TO SECUTHIISM .BY CONFERI PRQVISON MADE TO ASSIST IN SECURING EMPLOY- MENT COMMITTEE TO LOO UP RECORDS OF ?

Theodore Roosevelt will speak in Ann Arbor if plans now be- ing fostered by James G, Frey, '20, materialize. Frey was a delegate from a Penn- sylvania post of the American Legion at the Legion's first convention, held in Minneapolis on Armistice day. At that time he had the opportunity. of meeting Colonel Roosevelt, and he took it upon- himself to ask the col- onel whether he world consider vis- iting Ann Arbor to give a talk. Al- though he had already refused num- erous delegations which had ap- proached him on the same mission, Roosevelt said that he would be glad to come to Ann Arbor providing a{ suitable date could be arranged. As yet no definite time has been agreed on, but Frey is in correspond- ence with Colonel Roosevelt, and feels that he will be able to arrange a sat- isfactory date.. University authorities will not say anything on the matter due to the present lack of definite in- formation, but it is understood that if the plans can be so arranged that there is no conflict of events, Frey his crisis ny of the tntry are (By Associated Press)- .Chicago, Nor. '26.--National lead- erp of the four great railway brother- hoods held a secret session today at which the insistance of many local unions that a general strike of all, (railway workers in the United States be called by Dec. 1, to enforce de- mands for increase in pay was given serious attentipn, according to in- formation obtained tonight fron un- ion railway men. Especial Puirpose It was said by one union official that many of the delegates who, are now in Cleveland went there for the spec- ific purpose of fpreing the general .committee to 'call a nation-wide strike. It became known tonight that the Kansas City local of the brotherhood of railway trainment had telegraph- ed national officials of their organiza- tion asking permission to call a strike of trainmen and yardmen tomorrow. It was reported that the national of- ficers replied in such a way as to leave the question entirely open and sub- ject to the decision of local officials. Nothing Definite The union officials of Chicago, from whom the information was obtained, stated so far as they were aware the secret conference in Cleveland had not yet reached the point where re- solutions or motions for the strike actually had been presented but that the discussion concerning it today, according to -their information was, favorable .for the project and that the tieup would be expected within tfree days. A similar announcement was made today at the newly organiz- ed' labor party here . Plan Escape The barrier was erected after dis- covery that several Reds planned es- -cape by exchanging clothes with friends and after some visitors - had passed revolvers to the radicals.' In a letter to the house emigration committee which is in New York in- vestigating the emigration and de- portation system they reiterated that they would not attend deportation' hearings held by emigration inspect- ors and would go on a hunger strike in addition. Three summons to the dining room were unanswered. Drink- ing water"and oratory had been their only diet tonight for 24 hours. Refuse Answer About a half dozen voluntarily at- tended hearings but joined in the hun- ger strike. One attended a hearing but refused to answer questions. The strikers with the exception of two young women are segregated in a large room. All are anxious to be deported to Soviet Russia or "go there voluntarily.

Mr. Pargment -stated that a student ho had studied French for only two ears would experience no difficulty i understanding the language or mak- g himself understood at the end of six weeks' stay in France if he ould make use of every available op- ortunity to converse in French. An- ther fact brought out in the address. 'as that in Paris, numbering half the opulation of New York, there are stablished exactly 140 public libra- ies. "So large is the Louvre, which would ractically cover our campus," said [r. Pargment, "and so numerous are s art collections that if one were to pend only a minute befgre every ainting or sculpture, it wo ld neces- itate the spending of. three months f actual .time to see everything in can obtain Hill auditorium for the talk. Your Part In the Solution of the Athletic Problem Will you permit a.repetition of the football situation this winter? From present indications such is likely to happjen unless something is done. Coach -Mather, the mentor of the Varsity basketball squad announced yesterday that there is a shortage of men for the quintet squad.. "Surely -there are more than 30 men who can play basketball in this school," he says, and rightfully, so. Shortage of material was blamed for the failure' of the football season. Will it spoil the five man game for Michigan? Take Coach Yost's advice. Per- form a "real service" for your:school. Go out for the game if you can; If not, talk Michigan to that athlete- in your home town when you go hpme for Thanksgiving. Talk Michigan to him when you go home Christmas. i. Reach Partial Agreement Cleveland, Nov. 26.-Five hundred general'chairman- of the four princi-. pal railroad brotherhoods in confer- ence here to consider the offer of Di- rector General Hines granting time and one-half for overtime in slow freight service and a uniform 16 hour rule for crews h'eld away from home terminals today voted to accept the "away from home 'rule," but did not reach a vote on the overtime propos- ition, which many delegates bitterly opposed. From an authoritive source it was slearned that in all probability the del- .egates will reject the offer of time and one-half for overtime in slow freight service in tomoriow's meeting. The railroad administration offer is in response ,to the brotherhoods re- quest for. an increase in wages of approximately 50 per cent. Cosmopolitan club will present a varied program in the All-Nation en- tertainment to be given in Hill au- ditorium the latter part of January. This year's entertainment, which] will be produced under the directidn of Mr. George Wilner, will consist of a prologue and six short plays written around an outline prepared .by K. Horiuchi, '20. It is pfunned to present the humorous side of var- ious' phases of foreign life, in the plays, filling in the time between the acts with musical and novelty num- bers. The program follows: Prologue by Mr. Ralph Carson, '17; "Samurai on Duty," by J. Adams, '20; "Lifein the Latin Quarter," by Mr. E. L. Hackes; "A' Geogr'aphy Lesson in China," by John Adams, '20; "His Majesty, the King of Sahara," by Kelsey Guilfoil, '20L; "A Mystery in London," by C. Wilner, '21; and "Babel in Nagusaki," by Albert Jacobs, '21.
