LAST SUMMER SAW COLLECTORS FOR
UNIVERSITY MUSEUM IN MANY FIELDS

Measurements of Fifty
Cast and Chorus
VYaestrdAv

During the summer of 1921 the Uni-
versity Museum of Zoology had 11
collectors in various fields doing re-
search work. Most of the activities of
the department were carried on in
northern Michigan, in Cheboygan,
Marquette, and Altoona counties, but
collectors were also sent to southern
Tennessee and to North Dakota, where
the state biological survey was di-
rected by Norman A. Wood, curator
of birds at the Michigan Museum, and
Crystal Thompson, of the Amherst
college museum.
The South American studies that
have been in progress for several
years are being continued by co-ope-
ration with the Mulford expedition,
which is now somewhere on the east-
ern slope of the Andes, between Peru
and Colombia. A second expedition to
South America, under Mr. E. B. Wil-
liamson, will leave for the upper
Amazon basin this month.
Co-operation between nine univer-

sities and government departments en-
gaged in scientific work in the Ameri-
can-tropics will be established by the
new institute of research that is be-
ing fostered by the National Research
council. Michigan is a member of the
institute and its representative, Dr.'
A. G. Ruthven, director of the Uni-
versity Museum of Zoology, is a mem-
ber of the executive council. Head-
quarters for the institute are the oflic-
es of the National Research council at
Washington and all meetings are to be
held there.. Its object is to correlate
the scientific studies carried on in the
American tropics, and to avoid dupli-
cation of effort.
Fellowships approximating $20,000
in value have been given to the Uni-
versity and awarded to the Museum
by the will of the late Genevieve
Hinsdale, of Detroit. They will be
known as the Edwin C. Hinsdale fel-
lowships and the one available for
this year has been assigned to
Charles Creaser, grad.

Measurement of 50 members of the
cast and chorus of "Make It For
Two," the 1922 Union opera, were
taken yesterday for their show cos-
tames. Lester, of Chicago, said to be
the foremost costumer in the country,
was here with an assistant and per-
sonally oversaw the measuring. He,
himself, is the designer of all the
wardrobes for the opera. Water col-
or plates were presented showing ex-
actly how the gowns will look, and it
was freely said that nothing anywhere
approaching the splendor- of this
year's costumes has ever appeared in
a former opera.
Permission had been given the cast
and chorus members to attend the
Illinois game provided they would get
back promptly for mesuring yester-
day. Everyone was back to a man,
the measuring was quickly done, Les-
ter and his assistant returned to Chi-
cago, and today the whole establish-
ment will be started on the opera's
costumes.
First Amateur Show.
"This is the first amateur show we
have ever costumed," said Lester yes-
terday. "But we hardly call the
Michigan Union opera amateur. In
Chicago your uniformly high class
performances have made your crowds
as large as the best of the profession-
als' audiences."
That the costumes are original and
will never be duplicated is assured
because of a standing offer of $1,000
for any costume that was ever dupli-
cated at his establishment.
Jeweld Effects Promised
Oriental jeweled effects are to have
a prominent place among the cos-
tumes, while a special feature will be
the square dresses of one chorus, the
very newest thing in dancing cos-
tumes. The color effects are said to
be elaborate.
"We did not think we stood a chance
of getting Lester to do our work for
us," said E. Mortimer Shuter, director
of the opera, yesterday. "We simply
'had to haye the best in costumes, and
therefore we asked him to make
them. We are elated that he is .to
make the costumes."

COMMITTEE APPOINTMENTS, COLLEGE
REPORTS MADE AT FACULTY MEETING

Prof. A. E. Boak, Prof. H. M. Randall
Selected to Serve on Dean's
Advisory Group
PROF. KARPINSKI SUCCEEDED
BY PROF. SCOTT ON COUNCIL
Appointments to several committees
and discussion of the report of the
committee on junior and senior col-
leges, were the chief items on the
business program of the faculty meet-
ing Monday afternoon. No action was
taken after the discussion on the col-
lege policy.
Prof. A. E. Boak of the history de-
partment will succeed Prof.. L. C.
Karpinski on -the Dean's Advisory
committee, and Prof. I. Leo Sharfman
of the economics ,department will be
succeeded by Prof. H. M. Randall of
the physics department on the same
committee.
Prof. J. W. Glover of the mathe-
matics department will be succeeded
on the Senate council by Prof. Fred

BAND IN DEBT $274.74
The total expense of sending
the band to Illinois was $1,221.50, I
according to figures given out by
S. R. Bidwell, '23, manager of the
band. The contributions from the
student body amounted to 946.76,
leaving a deficit for the trip of
$274.74.
Included in the expense ac-
count are the following items:
Railroad tickets, including Pull-
mans, $1,059.00; breakfast, $45.25;
lunch, $51.25; dinner, $61.00;
baggage transportation, $5.00.
partment and Prof. C. P. Wagner of
the department of romance languages
will succeed Prof. J. S. Reeves of the
political science department and
Prof. J. G. Winter of the Latin de-
partment as members of the library
committee.
New appointments are necessitated
by the ruling that no committeeman
may succeed himself as a member of
a committee.

nual musical comedy of the Haresfoot
club of the University of Wisconsin, E.
Mortimer Shuter, director of the Union
opera, yesterday decided to remain at
Michigan. .The Haresfoot club has
been trying to secure Mr. Shuter for
the past three years, and this season
asked him to make them his own pro-
position. Mr. Shuter declned even to
do this, saying, "I regard Michigan al-
most as my own alma mater. I am at-
tached to it."
Dramatic work at the University of
Chicago was supervised to a certain
extent by Mr. Shuter several years
ago, but he feels that at Michigan
conditions are so satisfactory that he
does not even consider many other
offers which other schools have made
to him. They lack a stable organiza-
tion to back their shows, their policies
are less progressive, and their at-
tempts less ambitious. The popularity
of the Union opera which gives it
rank over the country with the best of
the professional productions.and the
consequent high morale and willing-
ness of the men in the show, according
to Mr. Shuter, is another factor which
influenced his decision to remain here,
where he has produced the last three
operas.
DITERIAEPIDEMIC
WELL UNDER CONTROL
Although there have been five deaths
from the local diphtheria epidemic, it
is now well under control, according
to information obtained at the city
health office. Only one new case has
been reported there since Thursday.
Practically every case has been among
pupils of the St. Thomas school, which
has been quarantined.
According to Dr. E. W. Sink, of the
Health service, diphtheria is an acute
contagious disease characterised by
moderate fever, glandular enlarge-
ment, great prostration, anemia and
the formation of a false membrane
upon certain muccous membrances, es-
pecially the throat and naso-pharynx.
It may be spread by coughing, sneez-
ing, expectoration and the use of com-
mon dishes and utensils.
Dr. Sink said that only two students
are reported to be suffering from diph-
theria, and it is probable that an epi-
demic will not arise if students will
recognize the importance of reporting
to the Health service if they have any
symptoms of the disease, since early
treatment will almost invariably pre-
*vent serious results.
'ENSIAN MUST HAVE SENIOR
PICTURES IN BEFORE NOV.18
All seniors are requested to ar-
range for Michiganensian sittings im-
mediately. Negligence on their part
will mean their forfeiture of a place
in the Michiganensian. Due to the
printing contract, all pictures must be
taken by Nov. 18.
Advance sales for the 1921-22 Mich-
iganensian will begin Nov. 14. The
campaign will continue until Nov. 18.
Fresh Lits Postpone Election
Election of freshman lit officers has
again been postponed on account of
the ineligibility of one of the proposed
candidates for president. The ballot-
ing will take place from 9 o'clock to
3 o'clock Wednesday at the booth in
University hall across from' the office
of the registrar. The candidates will
be announced tomorrow.

DIRECTORY GOES
ON SALE TODAY
The new Student directory, flaming
red in the color of its covers, and
some 20 pages larger than last year,
will be put on sale at various points
on the campus today.
The directory this year is out a
month earlier than that of last year,
so it is expected that it will remain up
to date for some months. Moreover
special cart has been taken to verify
all addresses and telephone numbers
in order to make the book as accur-
ate as possible.
. There are a few features in the
new guide which are improvements.
One is the use of bold face type to
set off the streets in the telephone
list. Another is the placing of the
advertiser's index in the back of the
book, where it will be more easily
found.
The price is unchanged from, last
years - it is 75 cents.

ican Men of Scipce" by J. McKeen
Cattell. This book contains biograph
ical sketches of 9,500 men who have
done work in the natural and exact
sciences, but only the names of 1,000
of these men are starred to indicate
pre-eminence in their particular field
of work.
Questionnaires Used
The "thousand greatest" were chos-
en. by sending out questionnaires to
representative men in the various
fields of science. These men were al-
so asked to express opinions as to
which men were leaders in their par-
ticular field. A careful examination
of the returns from these requests
resulted in the list given.
Prof. W. J. Hussey, who has been a
member of several research expedi-
tions and is member of many astro-
nomical associations, and Prof. R. H.
Curtiss represent the astronomy de-
partment, while four faculty men,
Prof. H. H. Bartlett, Prof. B. M.
Davis, Prof. C. H. Kaufman, and Prof.
F. C. Newcombe are considered among
the most eminent botanists.
The chemistry department is credit-
ed with three of the thousand in

Excellent French and exquisite art-
istry marked Mr. Wheeler's first group
of songs, which was composed of four
selections by French composers. Deli-
cate, each fitting the sope of Mr.
Wheeler's voice perfectly, the songs
were sung in a manner which show-
ed the artist's real mastery of that type
of work.
Five Grieg songs constituted the last
part of Mr. Wheeler's-work.
Dr. Van Der Hoeve Speaks Today
