League W
JUDICIARY CO"MITTEE IAT_
BE ASKED TO TAKE ACTION'
Representative action may be taken
by the women of the University as a
result of a petition which is now being
circulated requesting the Judiciary
council to call a meeting of all women
students immediately after spring va-
cation for the purpose of determin-
ing the opinion of the women in re-
gard to Junior Girls' plays.
'The rule relating to the controversy
states that if a three-fourths vote of
all present at a regularly convened
meeting of the Women's league is cast
in favor of having plays presented in
public, the action may be laid before
the Senate Committee on Student Af-
fairs. According to the constitution
of the league, such action is neces-
sary, and vote by ballot on such a
question cannot be made binding. The
petition, according to good authori-
ty, had its inception among the wom-
en students at large, and is not a
creature of the Junior Girls' play com-
mittee.
The women will also demand a deft-
nite statement of their status on the
campus, it is understood. In a reso-
lution passed at a mass meeting held
lasti Thursday the women present ask-
ed that their "status quo" be defin-
ed, this doming immediately after the
action of the Senate committee in for-
bid'ding the public/performance of the
Junior Girls' play.
The resolutions passed at that
meeting, which are expected to form,
a basis for discussion at the meeting
for which the petition is, being cir-
culated, are as follows: I
1. Resolved: That we, the women
of the University of Michigan, heart-
fly endorse the opinion expressed In
The Michigan Daily editorial of
March 30, and desire to go on record
as supporting its policy.,
2. Resolved: That our main desire
is to ,discover the position or "status
quo" of women on the. campus. Are
we admitted, to the University with
full rights, as are men students, or
are we admitted with restrictions? If
the former, why have we not been
accorded full rights? If the latter,
who imposes restrictions? Who has,
the authority to' enforce them? To
whom can we appeal for redress?

Time:7:15 o'clock tonight
Place: Assembly hall of the Michigan Union.
Speakers: Coach Yost and T. J. Lynch, '23H, chair-
man of the Pool drive.
Every man who is going home during vacation should
be at this meeting without fail. It will be short and snappy,
says the committee in charge. Coach Yost will talk about the
need for swimming facilities at Michigan; "Tom" Lynch
will distribute literature having to do with the coming drive,
with subscription receipt cards for the men to use in so-
liciting alumni, and will outline the "talkdng points" of the
campaign.
Then the meeting will adjourn. The committee promises
that it will be over in time for the second show.
If every man who leaves Ann Arbor next Friday will
come back with five or ten alumni dollars in his pocket, as
his contribution to the Pool fund, the drive will be an entire
success. But the thing to do right now is to get together first
and find out just how to collect those dollars. r.
Tonight at 7:15, Don't forget!

The poet really achieved his fame
with the appearance of his volume of.
"Chicago Poems" in 1915, poems
whose quaint, direct style and orig-
inality drew for him praise and com-
mendation. Some critics set them-
selves up against Sandburg, declaring
his writings to be "brutal," but even
'a short acquaintance with his works
will convince one that instead of be-
ing "brutal" they are alive and force-
ful.
Describes Industrial Life
"Cornhuskers" and "Smoke and
Steel" are the titles of two other of
Sandburg's later volumes. Here the
poet has injected some of those char-
acteristically "human" verses, touch-
ing on life In the city streets, the fac-
tories and in the market places. It
is this close association with life that
has gained for Sandburg a place;
among the foremost American poets, it
is said.
Construction of a new physics
building will .begin during the spring
vacation. The excavation work for
the new building will be started as
soon as the building occupied by the
R. O. T. C. and the automobile divi-
sion of the mechanical engineering
department has been removed, ac-
cording to an i announcement made
yesterday by those in charge of the
construction.
Expect Immediate Action'
The tearing out of this building will
be commenced as soon as classes are
finished for the week. The west end
of the building which the administra-
tive and clerical force of the R. '0.
T.. C. now occupies will be movedi
first, along with the east end which
is used for class rooms. They will
both be set up in temporary housing
in the rear of the engineering shops
on South University avenue, where,
according to W. E.. Lay, head of the
automobile division of the mechanical
engineering department, all of the
automobile shop equipment will be in-
stalled. This should be completed by
the time school begins so that class-
es will commence in the new quarters.
Offie Change Planned.
For the time being the R. 0. T. C.
will occupy rooms in the engineering
building. The mold loft in the north
wing is being cleaned out now and
will be ready to receive the clerical
office force and the military . equip-
ment and properties which will be
moved there. The administrative of-
ficers of instruction will probably use
room 22; in the same wing for their
office.
As to the future the automobile lab-
oratory will undoubtedly await the
completion of the proposed engineer-
ing shops before settling definitely,
while the R. 0. T. C. expects to do
more moving.

bell, '2), Paul Moore, '22M, Pranes
Smith, '22, Richey B. Reavill, '22t, and
George Gregory,. '22E. Their nomina
tion report in which they will put up
"A Pilgrimage in France" will be
the subject of a talk by Major John
G. Emery,- former commander of the
American Legion, at 7:30 o'clock to-
night in the , Union reading room.
Major Emery spent several years in
France during the war as an infantry
captain and took part in five off'en-
sives. He was cited four times.
His talk tonight, which is for all
ex-service men, will deal with his trip
to France, Belgium, and England last
summer as a member of the delegation
from the American Legion. He will
spend some time, however, defining the
soldiers' bonus bill and answering any
questions that may be asked.
Major Emery was chosen head of
the American Legion by a unanim-
ous vote after the death of Command-
er Galbraith. He has spoken recently
before the Masonic lodge where he
gave his opinion on the bonus bill. He
is one of the originators of the four-
fold bonus bill which has been adopt-
ed with only slight reservations.
