ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, WEDNESDAY, O.CTOBER 13, 1920 PRICE THREE CENTS t t CLEELANDTALES, SERIES, WINNING FOURTH STRAIGHT ONLY TWO BROOKLYN PLAYERS REACH SECOND BASE STANLEY COVELESKIE BRINGS TEAM SUCCESS Robinson Praises Wonderful Team Work of Cleveland Organiation Throughout Series (By Associated Press) Cleveland, Oct. 12.-The Cleveland American League club won the su- preme title in baseball here this aft- ernoon, when the Indians defeated the Brooklyn Nationals In the seventh and deciding game of the 1920 series, by a score of 3 to 0. Tonight Cleveland is celebrating in a manner adequately in keeping with the honor, and it is doubtful if a government proclamation announcing the selection of this city as the future capital of the United States would create a ripple of interest among the frenzied fans. Coveleskie Star Pitcher The shutout victory was chiefly en- gineered by Stanley Coveleskie, the spitball ace of the local team, who has proved to be a pitcher of remark- able skill and endurance during the series. Backed by air tight defense on the part of his team mates at critical moments of the game, Coveleskie let the Robins down with five hits. Only two Brooklyn players reached second base and only five of the invaders were left on bases. Coveleskie's feat, in winning three of the five games necessary to clinch the championship, will go down as one of the outstanding features of world series victories. Indians Deserve Champonship In the shutting out of the Nation- als in the final game this afternoon the Indians, led by Manager Speaker, rose to playing heights whih bore out the complete confidence of the club backers and fans in their ability to prove their right to wear the base- ball palm of the universe. They reached the spitters of Burleigh Grimes, the National league hurlers, for seven hits; clinched their game before the half way mark, and top- ped the play with several pieces of baseball strategy that has marked the team as a championship organization. "Cleveland has a wonderful ball club and Tris Speaker and his men cer- tainly deserve the splendid support they have reecived from the city," Wilbert Robinson, manager of the Brooklyn Dodgers, manager of the was a well fought and earnestly play- ed series. We did our best but we could not hit the Cleveland pitchers." After the game it was announced by the national commission that the paid attendance was 27,525, the largest of any of the seven games. Receipts were $83,900. Library Showing Specimens of 18th Century Writings Books from the Library's collec- tions of English dramatic literature have been placed on exhibit for sev- eral weeks in the male corridor of the general library. The exhibit is plan- ned primarily for the educators who will be in Ann Arbor for President Marion L. Burton's inauguration and also for showing the scope of the dramatic collection of the 18th cen- tury in the Library. Facsimilies of early plays by Shakespeare's predecessors and by Shakespeare are being shown. Sever- al eases are devoted to Shakespeare, exhibiting editions of his works, translations, and adaptations. Another case is devoted to books with the lives of famous actors of the 18th century. One book written in 1797 is for the instruction of young clergymen. "She Stooped to Conquer," by Doc- tor Goldsmith, and "Irene," by Sam- uel Johnson, are some of the dramas exhibited. Former Professor Dies In Colorado James H. Brewster, Ph.D., LL.B., former professor in the Michigan Law school, died in Denver, Colo., Oct. 7, according to information received by Dean Henry M. Bates of the Law school. A general breakdown was given as the cause of death. Professor Brewster, a graduate of Yale university in 1877, took his LL.B. in 1879, and went to Detroit to prac- tice law. In 1897 he was made a pro- fessor of the law of conveyancing in the Michigan Law school. During his time at Michigan Professor Brewster wrote a book, several magazine ar- ticles, and did considerable other in- vestigation work. Developing tuberculosis in 1910 Professor Brewster left for the West, where he practiced law in Colorado for four years until he felt strong enough to assume a proffered position as professor in the University of Col- orado law school. After a year there, he engaged in private practice in Den- ver until the time of his death. Dean Bates, speaking of Professor Brewster while in the University said "Professor Brewster was a sound, scholarly man with a keen analytic mind that made him an expert in his field. His inspiring personality was a factor recognized by all who came in contact with him and made him a man both popular and respected in the Law school." At the time of his death, Professor Brewster was making an indexed di- gest of the first 19 volumes of the Michigan Law Review. INITIAL MEETING OF COUNCIL TO 01 TONIGHT MANY IMPORTANT MATTERS TO BE TAKEN CARE OF BY BODY The Student council will hold its first meeting bf the year at 7:15 o'clock tonight in room 306 of the Union. The presid~ent hopes to get a line on the work of each of the members for the coming year at this time so that the various committees may be ap- pointed as soon as possible. All mem- bers are requested to be present. There are several important mat- ters that must be taken care of at once by the council, among which are Traditions day, the pep meetings for the Illinois and Chicago games, fall games between the two underclasses, freshman conduct, and campus activ- ities in general. The president wishes it understood that the council desires at all times to serve the best interests of the cam- pus, and he wants all students to feel free to offer suggestions. MANY TO VOTE BY ABSENT BALLOTS More than 250 students including 25 girls have sent home their applica- tions for ballots and many of this number have also registered by mail, a representative of the Republican club stated yesterday afternoon. This club furnishes free the necessary blanks for all students who wish to vote by mail. It has been estimated by the club that there are 2,000 student voters here from the states of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and New York. Since these states are the crucial ones in the pres- idential campaign this year, the club feels more than justified in making the effort to poll these votes. Many able speakers are being se- lected at the present time to come here to address the students in the near future, said a representative of the club. He stated that meetings would be held soon, the first probably next week. ASTRONOMY STORY HAS NO BASIS PROF. HUSSEY STATES Prof. W. J. Hussey, of the astro- nomical department, states, in an an- nouncement in today's Official Bulletin that the practical demonstrations and engagement of instructors to take care of this work as appeared in a story in The Daily of Saturday is con- trary to facts. The basis of the article was the view of an assistant, and Professor Hussey says that they were not sanc- tioned by him. GREEK, 1u YEARS OLD, YOUNGEST FRESHMAN Spiros Vinieratos '24E, only 15 years old, is the youngest freshman on the campus. He completed the work in the gym- nasium in his home town of Ar- gostoli, on the island of Cep- hallenia, Greece, and came hereI to study marine architecture. f His father, mayor of Argos- toli, came with him as far as New York, but from there he came alone. Vinieratos has had only two. years of English at his home, and although he can read j quite fluently, he has difficulty in understanding the lectures. He has no friends or relatives in America, but he expects to remain here during the four years of his course, before he returns home. LAW SCHOOL GRDS PASS 6BAREM Every Michigan Man Passes Rigid Tests Given Recently by State of Illinois LOCAL DEPARTMENT RATED HIGH AS RESULT OF SHOWING Figures showing the efficiency of the Michigan Law school have recently been received that place the work done here far above that of the ma- jority of law schools. Illinois Record Good In the recent Illinois state bar ex- aminations, in which men from law schools all over the country took part, there were 400 men who took the tests. Of this 400, only 37 per cent passed, this percentage being a fair average according to officils, and it is not exceptionally low. The striking fact about the examination was that every Michigan man who took the ex- amination passed. Advices report that several of the Mid-West law schools were hard hit by the showing of their men. In the Ohio state bar examinations this fall the percentage of those passed is not available, but the re- ports show that all Michigan men passed in these also. All Pass Fall Exams Last spring, when the Michigan state bar examinations were given, 92 men entered. Of this number 42 passed, making the percentage 45.7. The fall examinations were given re- cently, and every Michigan man en- tered in the tests passed. Authorities in the Law school are highly pleased with this showing as it bears out the confidence placed in this school by the leading law firms of the country, many of whom place re- quests with the dean every year for men to enter their offices. Figures from the Dean's office show that more requests for Michigan graduates were received last year than ever before and that the number has been steadi- ly increasing. BROOKLYN THROUGH WITH MARQUARD, SAYS EBBETTS Cleveland, Oct. 12.-Pres. Charles Ebbetts of the Brooklyn National league club, tonight announced that Rube Marquard who was fined -$1.00 and costs today for violating the ex- hibition ticket ordinance would never play with Brooklyn again. "I'm through with him absolutely," said Mr. Ebbetts. "He hasn't been re- leased, however, and if anybody else wants him, they can have him but Marquard will never again put on a Brooklyn uniform." ADELPHI SOCIETY HAS FIRST MEETING OF YEAR The Adelphi House of Representa- tives convened for the 11th session in Adelphi hall. George D. Wilner of the oratorical faculty spoke to the society on 'The Man Who Does Make a Team." Mr. Wilner was followed by short talks by L. Grubaugh, 22, P. H. Scott, 22, J. Hindes, 21, 0. Brown, 21, S. Shetzer, 21, and H. August, 21. There were a large number of new men pres- ent. POLISH-RUSS PACT IN EFFECT* 19TH AN)UNCEMENT BRINGS LARGE CROWDS TO PUBLIC SQUARE TREATY OF GIVE AND TAKE BETWEEN NATIONS Riga Settlement to Put Bolsheviki at Peace with All Their Baltic Neighbors (By Associated Press) Riga, Oct. 12.-A preliminary peace treaty' and armistice was signed by the Polish and Russian soviet peace delegates at 7:10 o'clock tonight. The armistice actually becomes effective at midnight Oct. 18 or 144 hours from midnight tonight. The announce- ment ,that peace was to be signed brought great crowds to the public square. About 200 persons, including the entire diplomatic body and prominent Lettish officials, crowded a small room, many of them standing. Fear Treaty Will Not Satisfy The head of the soviet delegation described the peace as "a peace with- out victo.ry and without vanquished" in a brief address before the signing of the treaty. That describes the Riga agreement as it appeared to disinter- ested onlookers. It was a peace of give and take which followers fear will not be popular with either the Poles or the Soviet. The Riga armistice will put the Bol- sheviki at peace with all their Baltic neighbors and leave the Wrangle movement as the only great military operation remaining against the So- viets. Nations Tired of War M. Jompe called attention to the many difficulties encountered in ar- ranging the armistice and also to the harmonious manner in which the del- egations carried out the negotiations. He also expressed the belief that the foundation had been laid for a per- manent peace, as both nations are ab- solutely tired of war and unwilling to assume the responsibility for continu- ing the struggle. MAU DEFEATS SIRBARUTON 8 LENGTHS DECLINES MOVIE OFFER TO WEAR FRESHMAN POT f r 1 hWouldtyou turn down a chance to make a trial picture1 for two prominent picture pro- ducing companies, the success of which would mean the sign- ing of a five year contract?

All of the above happened to Leo, yet he prefers to be a stu- dent at Michigan. ROOM COMMITTEE FACES DIFFICULTY Wholesale Exodus of Students from Contracted Rooms Causes Con- siderable Trouble PRICES FALL SUDDENLY AS HOUSING SPACE INCREASES Considerable difficulty is being ex- perienced by the committee on appeal in connection with the housing situ- ation because of a wholesale exodus within the last few days of students from contracted rooms. The large number of rooms available in Ann Arbor at the present time has been the cause of a sudden lowering of room rents by landladies. In many cases students shave moved out of contracted rooms, taking quarters at a much lower figure. Complaints Received Complaints have been received by the housing committee from irate landladies who are left with empty rooms, and the committee has taken a firm stand in regard to the situation. No student may vacate, according to the committee, any room or suite of rooms contracted for, until the end of the semester, without first securing a tenant to take his place. In the event that an exorbitant figure is being charged for the rooms, the matter will be ironed out by the housing commit- tee. Troubles Settled Few differences of the latter type have been brought to the attention of the committee, but in each case they have been settled to the satisfaction of both landlady and student-tenant. The housing committee will be in session to hear all complaints from 2 to 3:30 o'clock Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday afternoons of this week in room 302 of the Union.

AMERICAN JOCKEY SLOWS MOUNT IN LAST QUARTER UPI (By Associated Press) Windsor, Oct. 12.-The thorough- bred championship of the continent tonight rests on the American side of the border. Man-of-War, the great- est three year old of years, galloped home with the honors at Kennilworth Jockey club thisnafternoon, a full eight lengths in front of Sir Barton, the great four year old from Com- mander J. K. L. Ross' stables. The time was 2:03, more than a full. sec- ond faster than the old Canadian rec- ord for this distance. Samuel D. Biddle of Philadelphia, oowner of the victor, is the richer to- night by $75,000, the purse, and a gold cup valued at $5,000. The race was over a course of a mile and a quarter1 at weight for age, the winner carrying 120 pounds to the loser's 126. Between 29,000 and 30,000 persons paid to see the great horse race. Sir Barton drew the pole and was away with a jump, but the lead was short lived. Jockey Kummer sent Man-of-War alongside and then ahead. When the stands were reach- ed at the end of the first quarter, the Biddle. horse had a two lengths lead. Kummer kept Man-of-War in check to the third quarter pole then let out a wrap, and the great three year old responded with a burst of speed that left Sir Barton eight lengths behind before the stretch was reached. The last quarter mile around the stretch was an easy gallop with Kum- mer visibly easing up his mount. The slow time was plainly due to the fact that the victor was never in danger from the time he took the lead at the first sixteenth pole.
