PRICE FIVE C S1NN FEI ,N PLOT PLANS TO DAMAGE DOCUMENTS DISCLOSING DETAILS OF CONSPIRACY CAPTURED DURING IRISH RAIDS OFFICIALS THREATENED IN NUMEROUS LETTERS PRESIDENT BURTON PLEASED WITH ATTITUDE OF BUDGET COMMITTEE BRILLIANT ATTACK WINS FOR LANSING Are Protected by Barriers by London Police Erected (By Associated Press) London, Nov. 27.-The capture dur-' ing (raids in Ireland of Sin Fein doc- uments alleged to give details of a conspiracy for damaging government buildings in England was said today in police circles to be the cause of' the erection of the 'formidable barri-' cades which have been put up at the entrances of Downing street and King Charles street.. In addition to the plot reported in the house of commons, Wednesday by Sir Hamar dGreenwood, the chief sec- retary for Ireland, for the destruction of property in Liverpool and Man- chester, it is stated in police quar- ters that numerous other acts of ter- rorism were being planned. Offcials Threatened According to published reports, members of the government have re- ceived a number of threatening let- ters recently, but the officials are maintaining silence on this subject. It also is stated that sensational discoveries have been made concern- ing the activities of plotters in Lon- don. In one case, according to the police, motor cars were to have been employed to transport bombers from various parts of London to carry out the destruction of the government buildings. Barriers Erected Neither Premier Lloyd-George nor other members of the government had asked for the protection now afford- ed by the barriers, it is declared, but the police decided they were neces- sary to protect the government's prop- erty and the lives of the officials. The houses of parliament were clos- ed to the public today and many per- sons coming up from the country were refused admission. This official action followed the de- tention of a strange man in the outer lobby of the house of commons yes- terday.

COUNCIL PICTURE Student council picture will be taken at 12:30 o'clock Monday, at Spedding's studio. "I am very well satisfied with our1 reception by the state budget commit- tee Friday and their attitude," saidi President Marion L. Burton yesterday speaking of the trip to Lansing ofc himself and five of the Regents for the purpose of presenting the needs of the University before them. "We were also much gratified by the action of the Michigan Manufact- urers' association in sending a rep-1 resentation to Lansing to endorse our program. This was particularly pleas ing as they came entirely on their own initiative, without any urging from the Univetsity authorities, and spoke before the committee, strongly sup- porting our requests for funds. Rep- resenting as they do. about one-third of the tax paying power of the state, their action has ungsual signific- ance." President Burton stated that he be- lieves the budget committee was de- cidedly favorable toward the Univer- sity's request. He quoted a remark by Auditor General Fuller, illustrat- ing the attitude of those present. Mr. Fuller said, "Dr. Burton, if you can present the needs of the University to WOLEINES GET PLCS ON MYTHICAL ELEVNS STEKETEE, GOETZ AND OTHERS HONORED BY SPORT WRITERS I I With the 1920 Big Ten football sea- son a matter of history, western crit- ies are engaged in the annual pas- time of picking All-star combina- tions.

EX- SENATOR BEVERIOGE WILL TALK WEDNESDAY SPEAKER ROSE FROM PLOWBOY TO FILL PLACE IN U. S. SENATE Albert J. Beveridge, ex-senator fromt Indiana, will fill the next number of the Oratorical association program when he speaks on "The Develop-t ment of the Constitution Under Chief Justice Marshall" next Wednesday at1 Hill auditorium. Ex-Senator Beveridge has had an1 interesting career. Born on a farmr in Ohio in 1862, his family moved to9 Illinois just after the Civil war. From the age of 12 years he led a life of' hardships, working as plowboy, rail- road laborer, logger, and teamster,' until he entered high school. At 221 he received the degree of Ph.B. from' De Pauw university and three years later that of A.M. He then entered the law office of Senator McDonald and was admitted to the bar in 1887. He was associated with McDonald and Butler until he went into prac- tice for himself, and has been Iden- tified with many important cases. Twice Elected Senator In 1899 he was elected United States senator and in 1905 was re- elected. In 1902 he received the de- gree of LL.D. from De Pauw univer- sity. He was chairman of the Pro- gressive National convention in 1912. and has long been known as a Re- publican campaign orator. While a student in college he once won the Northern Oratorical championship, and while in the senate was known as a man of strong speaking ability. The ex-senator is a student of po- litical science, law, and government, and has written many books on va- rious subjects. His lecture will by based upon his latest work, "The Life of John Marshall." Prof. Claude H. Van Tyne of the History department describes this book as the "best his- torical biography of the generation." Asks Students to Attend Mr. Beveridge himself has requested that students of political science and government attend his lecture. For some time he has been compelled to refuse invitations to speak, and only lately rejected the opportunity to address the Detroit Bar association. It is expected tha4 this organization will attend the lecture in a body. Northwestern Unable to Withstand Strong Offensive of Capitol City Backs CAPTAIN VREELAND AND DAY DOMINATE DETROIT OFFENSE Displaying a vigorous attack which= baffled their opponents, Lansing High defeated Northwestern of Detroit, 19 to 7, yesterday on Ferry field in a game for the semi-championship of Michigan, which was featured by strong offensive play, weak defensive work, and clean but nevertheless hard playing. In the first few minutes of play the Capitol city aggregation rushed the ball down the field and across the goal line for what would have been a touchdown if the Lansing back had not fumbled, Sweeney of Northwest- ern, recovering for a touchback. From this time, except for one brilliant at- tack of the Detroiters in the second quarter which brought them a score and for a few other sporadic attempts later in the contest, Lansing was clearly the superiorof Northwestern. Both Weak on Defensive In offensive play the Capitol city team was decisively better, taking the ball for first downs consistently. In defensive work, although neither team was strong, Lansing had the edge on the Detroiters. Fitzpatrick, quarter; Meller, full- back; and Richards, halfback, were the stars for Lansing. Consistent gains were made through the line by all of these men, and on many occas- ions they squirm and twist their way around tacklers for from 15 to 45 yards. In particular, Fitzpatrick was good. His change of pace took him off tackle and around ends many times. Meller was the equal of the quarter. An off tackle drive for 45 yards when he tossed off five North- western tacklers was his most bril- liant contribution. Richards made a neat run of 20 yards for the second Lansing touchdown. Vreeland Stars Captain Vreeland, who entered the game for Northwestern late in the first quarter, plunged his way to be- ing the star for the Detroiters. Car- rying everything before him, this back would puncture the Lansing line for big gains at almost every buck. An 18 yard gain and then a two yard plunge by Vreeland gave Northwest- ern its sole touchdown. He was also good on end runs. Day, a halfback also played a fine game for North- western. Only three forward passes, all by Northwestern, were completed in the course of the game, and a Lansing pass to Kipke was allowed on the charge of interference by a North- western back. In her attempts North- western made one good for five yards ,nother gained two yards, and twr yards was lost on the third effort. Approximately 25 yards was netted to Lansing when Northwestern interfer- red with Kipke. Taking the ball on her 40-yard line in the second quarter, Lansing made its first down in mid-field. After a five yard penalty for offside, Meller took the ball off left tackle, and was not stopped until he reached the 20-yard line. Again Meller went, this time depositing the ball on the four-yard line. Richards finally carried it over, but Meller failed to kick goal. Vreeland returned the Lansing kickoff to his 40 yard line, and then made 13 for a first down. Several plunges again brought a first down and then Day brought another with the ball on the 25-yard line. Vreeland carried the ball to the two-yard line on an end run, from where on the next play he bucked over. Day kick- ed goal. Not to be daunted, Lansing came right back when Meller made 12 yards, followed by a 33 yard gain by (Continued on Page Six) NUMEROUS CLASS OUTLINED YEAR ACTIVITIES FOR SECRETARY POST SPEAKS TONIGHT Louis Freeland Post, assistant sec- retary of labor of the United States, will deliver a lecture on "The Future of Labor" at 8 o'clock tonight in the Natural Science auditorium.

ATHLYETI C BOARD FOR NEW STANDS COMPLETE STADIUM WOULD COST IN NEIGHBORHOOD OF $400,000 FIVE-YEAR $50 TICKETS MAY FINANCE PROJECT Three Methods of Enlarging Seating Capacity of Ferry Field Entertained Lack of seats at Ferry field for the most important of this fall's football games and the resultant dissatisfac- tion has called forth many plans for the building of new stands at the field and the finishing of the stdium, of which the south stand is at pres- ent the only section. It was the intention when the south stand was built to eventually dupli- cate it on the north side of .the field where the wooden stand is now and connect the two by a stand in the form of a U at the west side of the gridiron. The result would be a mam- moth stadium with a seating capac- ity of 44,000 people which could be increased to 50,000 by the addition of boxes and chairs. The problem of financing these plans is the only stone in the path. The Board in Control of Athletics is entertaining suggestions from alumni and all others interested in overcom- ing the present situation. Three Plans Considered The three most plausible methods for increasing the seating capacity are as follows: (1) To build the counterpart of the south stand where the north stand is now. This would cost about $150,000 and would increase the number of seats at the field about 4,000. The present wooden stand could be mov- ed over to the baseball field. (2) To build the connecting linki in the form of a U at the west end of the field. It would cost $250,000 and would increase the seating capacity by 18,000. (3) The third plan is to build bott stands, the one on the north and thf one on the west, making a comple' stadium with a seating capacity 01 44,000 people, which could easily be increased to 50,000 in case of need Four hundred thousand dollars is nec- essary to build both of these stands Outside Money Needed The Board in Control of Athletics is now discussing the feasibility 0: selling seats for the next five year, for the two reserved seat games o each year. Under the present tenta tive plans, the alumni, faculty, an students would have the opportunity of purchasing for five years ;tin ad vance, the best seats in one of th stands. According to the present prio it would cost $5 each year or $25 fo the five years. The purchaser would in addition, pay the same price agali for the privilege of always having on of the best seats for the importau gaies of each year. The total woul be $50, in return for which the buye would have the satisfaction of know ing where his seat is to be at ea) of the games where reserved seat Dartmouth Trims Wash. by Passes Seattle, Nov. 27. - Dartmouth smothered the University of- Wash- ington today by brilliant forward passes and won 28 to 7. Three of the Dartmouth's touchdowns were made directly through forward passes from Robertson to Jordan. The fourth was made on a line buck following a suc- cessful overhead attack. Washing- ton's lone tally came in the first quar- ter when Abel blocked a punt and carried it over. Italian Chamber Approves Treaty Rome, Nov. 27.--The Chamber of Deputies today approved the treaty of Rapallo which disposes of the Ad- riatic problem between Italy and Jugo-Slavia.
