PARKS HANDS IN HISRE SIGNATION;
'' VAN BOVEN ELECTED NEW CAPTIN

Proposed Legislation Will be
Temporary Nature; To Have
New Bill Later

of

(,y Associated Press)
Washington, March 21.-The Ford-
ney emergency tariff bill, precisely asI
vetoed by ex-President Wilson, will be
rushed through congress as the first
important legislation of the extra ses-
sion.'
President Requests Bill
Acceeding to the request of Pres-
ident Harding for passage of a meas-
ure designed to help farmers, asking
for protection against foreign compet-
ition, Republican . members of the
house ways and means committee today
voted to revive the Fordney bill after
agreeing almost unanimously a week
ago not to consider any emergency
legislation ahead of a permanent tar-
iff and, revenue revision.
Senators Penrose, Smoot, and Mc-
Cumber, conferees from the senate fi-
nance committee agreed to the new
program, which, it was explained,
meets with the approval of the Presi-
dent. Senator Penrose expressed the
belief that the emergency measure
would be in the ha'nds of Presidentr
Harding within 10 days after the con-
vening of the special session, April 11.
Hold Conferencet
Several members of the house com-
mittee, including Chairman Fordney
and Representatives Logworth and
Green, conferred with Senator Pen-
rose who heads the senate finance
committ'ee, after the former committee
had reached its agreement. From this
conference came the prediction that
the measure would be rushed through
the house under a special rule and
through the senate, possibly under
limitations of debate as enforced by
cloture.
The new Fordney bill will be pre-
sented with a six months' limitation,
but its provisions will expire at an
earlier date should the permanent bill
be enacted before expiration of the
six months' period.
Artists Conclude
Jatinee JMusical
Series Ton igh t
Olga Samaroff, pianist, and the De-
troit Symphony String quartet will be
the artists at the last concert in the
Matinee Musicale series at 8 o'clock
this evening in Pattengill auditorium.
The quartet is composed of Ilya
Schkolnik and William Grafing King,
violins, Herman Kolodkin, viola, and
Philip Abbas, 'cello. The work of this
organization is considered to rank
with the best of th'I type of musical
'artistry. Ossip Gabrilowitsch, con-
ductor of the Detroit Symphony or-
chestra, says: "The Detroit Sym-
phony String quartet stands on a par
with the finest chamber music organ-
ization now before the public."
Madame Samaroff is a pianist of the
highest caliber. From the outset her
career has been one of remarkable
distinction, both in Europe and Amer-
ica, and the pronounced success with
which she met her tour last year
marked a new .era of artistic develop-
m-nt.
The' quartet will play the Haydn
Quartet No. 10, and with Madame
Samarff the Caesar Frank Quintet in
F minor. Madame Samaroff and Mr.
Abbas will play the Saint-Saens So-
nata for the piano and 'cello, opus 32.

2 IRISH SONGS
OPERA FEATURE

Mail Order Total Largest in History;'
Many Good Seats Still
Left
BOX OFFICE TICKET SALE
OPENS TODAY FOR CAMPUS
Musical hits of "Top o' th' Mornin'"
are sure to be Irish, for each of the
12 numbers of this year's opera is es-
sentially a part of the plot which is
laid in County Limerick, Ireland. The
songs will be in striking contrast to
those of purely local color in "George
Did It" last year. George H. Roder-
ick, '21E, composed the tunes for
every number except "Paris Green
Blues," which is the work of Edwin
Meiss, '23, and Myron T. Chon, '23.
Lyrics were written by Russell
Barnes, '20, Buckley C. Robbins, '23,
and Byron Darnton, '23.
Hard to Pick Best Numbers
Only the reactions of audiences will
tell which of the songs will be most
liked, but it is certain that "Peggy
O'Dare" and "Honey," both sung by
Kemp Keena, '20, will bid strong for
popularity. "Hot Dog," by Hilliard
E. Rosenthal, '21, and "Fairy Foun-
ain," by Earl C. Kneale, '22, are said
to be extremely catchy. Howard E.
Ramsy, '21E, will lead in "The Dub-
lin Walk," while Thomas E. Dewey,
'23, sings' "Satan Put a Devil in the
Irish." -
"Paris Green Blues," by Hilliard E.
Rosenthal, '21, leading comedian, will
cause many a laugh. "When You
Love," by Kemp Keena, '20, and' E.
Marlowe Stevens, '21E, leading man
and woman, respectively, is a number
that will be particularly appealing be-
.cause of the music as well as the
lines
Other songs are "In My Arithmetic,"
by William Turner, '21, and Philip E.
Ringer, '22; "Miss Brodie's Boarding
School for Girls," by Buckley C. Rob-
bins, '23, and George Schemm, '22; "A
Paradise for Micks," by Howard E.
Ramsey, '21E, Thomas E. Dewey, '23,
W. Lloyd Berridge, '21, and Herbert
P. Wagner, '21; and "Touch o' th'
Green," by Kemp Keena, '20. "Swing
Along" is the title of the opening
chorus.
Mail orders for opera tickets were
filled yesterday and today the box of-
fice sale begins for Union members
who did not send in orders. Two
days, today and tomorow, will be
given the men to make their pur-
chases, the hours of sale being from
10 to 12 o'clock in the morning, and
from 2 to 5 o'clock in the afternoon in
the Union lobby. All unsold tickets
will be placed on box office sale for
University women from 2 to 5 o'clock
Thursday afternoon in Hill auditor-
ium,
General Public Sale Starts Friday
Although more than 1,200 applica-
tions were received by mail, the larg-
est advance sale in the history of the
opera, there are still many seats to
be sold, especially to the Tuesday
evening and Saturday afternoon per
formances, for which exceptionally
good seats can be obtained.
The box office sale for the general
.public begins at the Whitney theater
Friday, March 25.

"Slicker" Admits Playing on Portland
Team During the Past
Summer
BARTELILE DESIRES THAT
FURTHER COMMENT CEASE
"I have had a conference with
'Slicker' Parks and he has offered his
resignation from the baseball team,"
said Philip G. Bartelme, director of
outdoor athletics, yesterday. "Parks
admitted that he had played with the
Portland baseball club during the past
summer under the name of Harold
Brooks."
Thought Precedes Action
Mr. Bartelme stated that the base-
ball captain had given considerable
thought to the situation before com-
ing to see him, with the result that
the resignation was offered immedi-
ately. "I can see no reason or pur-
pose in further speculation and guess-
ing as to the why and wherefore of
the whole affair," concluded Mr. Bar-
telme.
In commenting upon the disclosure'
of the Chicago Tribune that Parks had
played professional baseball last sum-
mer, Prof. Ralph W. Aigler, chairman
of the Board in Control of Athletics,
said: "Since Parks has admitted that
he played, I can see nothing further
to do about the situation. Under Con-
ference rules 'Slicker' is ineligible and
the only thing that remained for him
to do was to resign."
Aigler Almost Saw "Brooks"
Professor Aigler said that he was
surprised when he first heard th re-
port, yet he thought that such a rum-
or had existed on the campus for some
time. "I can't help but wonder," con-
cluded the professor, "who would have
been the more surprised had I gone
to a baseball game when I was in
Portland this summer and seen 'Har-
old Brooks' warming up for the game.
I came pretty near attending, at
that."
REGENT IS PRINCIPAL
IN UNKRUPTCY CSE
Dr. W. H. Sawyer, of Hillsdale, Re-
gent of the University, is a principal
in a bankruptcy case, involving $175,-
000, which was started recently in the
Hillsdale circuit court. The final ar-
gument for the case was made at 5
,o'clock Saturday afternoon, in the Ann
Arbor circuit court.
Claims Based on Receipts
A. F. Freeman, of Ann Arbor,
represented Attorney W. Lockerby
who, as trustee in, bankruptcy for
Dr. Sawyer, is trying to secure$175,-
000 for the doctor's creditors. Mr.
Freeman's claims were based on the
$10,955 which the doctor is said to
have received as executor of the Wil-
liam W. Mitchell estate. Another claim
is on the $111,000 Dr. Sawyer is said
to have left from the estate, which or-
iginally amounted to $200,000. He
married the sister of Mr. Mitchell.
Dr. Sawyer's attorneys claim that
the legacy left him by the Mitchells'
has disappeared in the failure of the
Alamo Manufacturing company, in
which the doctor had invested heavily.
Sample Hears Case
Judge G. W. Sample, of the Ann Ar-
bor circuit court, heard the case, due
to the reluctance of the Hillsdale
judge, who was unwilling to try the
case because of his friendship for the
principals.
It is not known when the decision
will be given, according to Attorney
A. F. Freeman, of Ann Arbor.

BROKERAGE OFFICE OPENED
IN NATIONAL BANK BUILDING
Marking the first establishment of
its kind in Ann Arbor, E. G. Hildner,
'17, has opened a brokerage office in
the National Bank building in part-
nership with J. S. Langley. Market
quotations will be quoted from the
prominent exchanges. In connection
x with this, a special wire to the New
York Stock Exchange will be main-
tained. Chicago, Detroit, and Boston
exchanges will also be quoted.
r Both Langley and Hildner have had
previous experience in brokerage es-
1 tablishments, Hildner having repre-
sented a brokerage off ie in Ann Ar-
bor after his graduation.

WILL PROBABLY PLAY SHORT,
FILLING BERTH RNODE LEFT
Peter J. Van Boven, '21, of Grand
Rapids, was elected captain of the
1921 Varsity baseball team Monday
afternoon at a meeting of the veter-
ans of the championship 1920 nine.
This Season His Third
This season will complete Van Bov-
en's third ,as a member of a Michigan
baseball team. During the two last,
Michigan has been Conference cham-
pion.
"Pete" started his diamond career
at Michigan on the 1920 freshman
team, on which nine he was short-
stop. The year after he was in the
service, but on his return in 1919, he
became utility infielder, filling in for
Knode and Garrett, who was then
playing as second baseman.
Last year Van Boven was one of the
steadiest performers on the team,
holding down second base in sensa-
tional fashion, and hitting at oppor-
tune times. His mark for the year was
around .290, with a Conference record
of .283.
Future Seems Brilliant
From his fielding this year, the new
leader should be one of the best field-
ers ever in a Maize and Blue uniform.
He will probably play the position
left vacant by the graduation of
Knode, shortstop, and by all indica-
tions will be as brilliant as his prede-
cessor.

CHEMICAL HONOR
SOCIETYTO MEET
Under the auspices of the Iocal
chapter with headquarters at the
Michigan Union, the biennial conven-
tion of Phi Lambda Upsilon, honorary -
chemical society, will be held in Ann -
Arbor on Thursday and Friday of this
week.
This convention will be an innova-
tion inasmuch as its predecessors have
been held in conjunction with meet-
ings of the American Chemical socie-
ty. It is felt that this separation will
offer better opportunity for discussion
and constructive planning than has
previously been possible. Further-
more, it is believed that the active
chapters will be more accurately rep-
resented and their co-operation more
certain in applying any principles
which may be conceived.

istic fraternity, will hold its 15th an-
nual national convention in Ann Arbor

ing of the grand council in New York
City last January when it was decil-
ed to hold the convention in Ann Ar-
bor.

News, will speak. That evening the
preliminary business meeting will be
held. Saturday morning the final bus-
iness meeting will take place, during
which time Prof. Morris P. Thiley
will give an address to the delegates.

"Unless the national government r

and lecturer who spoke yesterday ev
ning at the Union, under the auspic

and the Homoeopathic Hospital Fuil
Street emphasized that any approat
to the Japanese question from ti
view point that the Orientals are a
inferior race is a great error, that tl
Japanese are not inferior but diffe

premise could a successful soluti
to the problem be worked out.
"Melting Pot Overworked"
The speaker does not favor lifting
the bars against Japanese immigr

overworked, and we must give it
rest," he said.
Street bases .his objections to ti
admission of Japanese upon two ci
cumstances, the labor competitic
which large numbers of the Orient
workers wouldbring to Aieriee
workers, and the fact that the t
races are essentially different. I
considers assimilation of the Japane
impossible, and thinks that there a

The Japanese government is not d
sirous of sending any more imn

ing that those already h-ere be giv
proper protection and be allowed

Regarding the allegations that Jap;
