Final Form of Resolution of Ratifica-

Today
(By Associated Press)
Washington, March 18.-Proceeding
under forced draft to reaTh a final
ratification vote on the peace treaty
tomorrow, the senate broke from con-
trol of the Republican leaders today
and unexpectedly swept into the Re-
publican reservation program, a de-
claration of sympathy for self-gov-
ernment in I:,a'and.
Demociats Support
During the debate Democratic lead-
ers supported the reservations, and
the managers of the Republican side
opposed it because it included a gen-
eral declaratoin that this nation ad-
hered to the principle of the self-de-
termination of people.
Revival. of the Irish question pro-
longed into the night the senate's
task of getting into final form the res-
olution of ratificaton on which it is
planned to bring a vote tomorrow.
One after another a long list of mis-
cellaneous reservations were voted
down as the leaders were bent on
completing their task before adjourn-
ment.
Simmons Makes Fight
After the Irish reservation had been
approved, Senator Simmons, Demo-
crat of North Carolina, made a last
minute fight to secure a change in
the Republican reservation to Article
X, but his substitute providing that
the United States would use "its
friendly offices" to help preserve ter-
ritorial. integrity -and political inde-
pendence was tabled by a vote of 45
to 34.
REGENT'S SON PLUNSS
FOnO CAR- INTO Ri1ER
MICRIGAN GRAD UNDER WATER
FOUR MINUTES IN CLOSED
AUTO
Smashing through the railing at the
foot of Woodward avenue, Detroit, in
a Ford sedan which somersaulted into
30 feet of water in the Detroit river
and emerging to the surface four
minutes later, after fighting his way
from the submerged car, was the ex-
perience at 1 o'clock Thursday morn-
ing at Travis F. Beal, '17, son of Re-
gent Junius E. Beal. ,
Accident Due to Steamed Widows
Bea, who lives in Ann Arbor but
also maintains a residence in Detroit,
attributed the accident to his not be-
ing well acquainted with the streets
in Detroit. While driving along the
lower end of Woodward avenue, the
windows of his closed car became
clouded with steam and he crashed
into th'e river front railing before he
had time to notice it.
In giving an account of the acci-
dent to his father over the phone
yesterday morning, Beal said that the
machine sank quickly and by batter-
ing the windshield with'his elbow he
was able to free himself from the au-
tomobile and reached the surface. A
life preserver was then thrown him
by a patrolman who had witnessed
the plunge. He was under water four
minutes.,
Escapes Serious Injuries
He was taken to the Receiving hos-;
pital after being rescued, but except
for a deep gash four inches long on
his right arm and a few other minor
injuries sustained in breaking open
the windshield, Beal was apparently#
none the worse for the accident and
was able to go home unassisted.
Beal graduated from the literary
college of the University in 1917. Dur-
ing the war he served as navigation
officer of the United States submarine

CO-OP STORE PLAN
AGITATED AT OHIO
A committee of 10 who are i epresen-
4atives of the various campus organ-
izations, has been appointed by the
Student council of Ohio State univer-
sity, in order to formulate plans for
the establishment of a co-operative

Revocation of Letters for After-Ae.
quired Professionalism Only
Suggestion
RULING, 11 PASSED, WOULD
APPLY TO FOOTBALL ALONE
Prof. R. W. Aigler, chairman of the
Board in Control of Athletics, wishing
to correct a prevailing erroneous opin-
ion regarding the revocation of letters
awarded to football men who partici-
pate in professional football after
leaving college, issued the following
statement yesterday afternoon:
Rules Explained
"In the first place Michigan has had
a rule for some time to the effect that
any athlete who participated in pro-
,fessional athletics while in college
<would be disciplined. At a Conference
meeting last December, the question of
professional football was discussed
and two resolutions were passed.
"The first was that no one would be
eligible as official for Conference foot-
ball games or as football coach of a
Conference team, who after this reso-
lution becomes effective, takes part in
professional football either as coach
or player;
"The second was a recommendation
ghat action be taken to revoke the let-
ter awarded to a man for playing foot-
ball on a Varsity team in case he par-
ticipated in professional football after
leaving college.
Football Differs .
"This is merely a suggestion to the
Conference universities and applies
only to football. The reason for this,
is that there is a fundamental dif-
iference between football and other
sports. In professional baseball, for
instance, men do not play professional
ball because of the training and rep-
utation they acquired in college. You
will find that comparatively few col-
lege baseball players become profes-
sionals. Hence it is not a case of
promoting the capitalization of col-
lege teams and reputations.
"In professional football it is dit-
ferent. Football thrives entirely on
college support, and college football
players are sought by professional
teams on account of the training and
reputation they acquired while play-
ing on college elevens. It is purely
a case of the professional game de-
pending on the college game.
(Continued on Page Eight)
For the purpose of making clear its
views in regard to some sentiments
expressed on the campus, the Marine
Corps club drew up the following res-
olution at its meeting last night:
Whereas, a great deal of radical,
anti-American sentiment has been ex-
pressed on or about the campus of
the University of Michigan and in
certain radical clubs and organiza-
tions; sentiments which are repug-
nant to the ideals for which we have
fought, and,
Whereas, we as members of the Un-
ited States Marine Corps club are
wholly and fully patriotic and Amer-
ican,
Be it, therefore, resolved that this
organization go on record as oppos-
ing and condemning any such radical
or anti-American expression as has
been uttered in the past.
C. Fleming, recruiting sergeant
from Detroit, disucssed plans with
the Marine Corps club for an enter-
tainment to be offered by the Roving
,Marines. This exhibition will be held
at 8 o'clock on the evening of March
26, in the high school auditorium.
Music, boxing, moving pictures, and
monologues. will be some of the fea-
tures of the evening.
'FISHER FOLK' IS
LECTURER'S TOPIC
Dr. Wilfred T. Grenfell, Labrador
explorer, author, and missionary, will
give an illustrated lecture on his work
among the fisher folk of the Labrador
coast at 8 o'clock Monday evening in
Hill auditorium.
Through his long service of aid to
the inhabitants of the Labrador and
Newfoundland coasts, Dr. Grenfell has
had conspicuous recognition of his
work both in England and America.
Many universities have sent students
to work with him during the summer
vacations and have purchased boats
for service along the Labrador coasts.
In 1907 he was knighted by King Ed-
ward VII with the order of St. Mi-
chael and St. George.
He has also received recognition
from the American Geographic so-
ciety for valuable contributions to
science.
PENNSYLVANIA ALUMNI BUY

EDUCATIONAL 'DRY ROT' MUST GO
SAYS BURTON TO MINNEAPOLIS CLUB
"'Dry rot' in our educational insti-E
idea becomes more and more appar-
tutions must be done away with," was
the opinion of Dr. Marion LeRoy Bur-
ton, president-elect of the University
of Michigan, expressed in an address
before the College Women's club of
Minneapolis last Saturday afternoon.
"If we are to avoid chaos we must
reorganize from top to bottom our ed-
ucational processes to meet The prob-
lems of the - day."
Students Need Rousing
Dr. Burton declared that the stu-
dent bodies of the American univer-
sities must be aroused to the respon-
sibilities of the day, and made fami-
liar with the problems we are facing;
that it must be made possible for top-
ics of national importance to be dis-
cussed in the fraternity houses, so-
rority houses and dormitories without
tridicule.
In consideration of the great
amount of work now done in colleges
which ought to be accomplished in thel
high schools, he asserted that the ne-
cessity of adpoting the junior college'
ent.
Superficiality a Vice
"One of the national vices of Amer-
ica is superficiality. Whatever we do,
we are not willing to take the time,
to do the task as we ought.
It has repeatedly been said abroad'
of the men receiving the Rhodes schol-
arships that their education was defi-
cient, lacking preciseness, accuracy
and the power of hard work. These
criticisms, according to Dr. Burton,
are indictments of our educational sys-
tem.
Pleads for Teachers
"Education and democracy are in-
separable, and on a high level of edu-
cation depends the future of our na-
tional institutions. We must stimu-
late our students and train them to
think with thoroughness." -
Dr. Burton made a plea in behalf
of the teachers, saying that greater
emphasis should be placed on the art
of teaching, and better salaries offered
in the profession.
