until late today, there seemed no
doubt in the minds of union officials-
today as to how the men stood.
Unofficial reports were that 90
,per cent of those voting were oppos-
ed to acceptance of the wage cut of
July 1. Notwithstanding this attitude
on the part of the men, it was stated
a strike was in no wise certain. The
general committees will decide' on a
strike and they are not bound to
abide by the vote of the members.

FOURTH ANNUAL TRADITIONSIAS
WILL LEARN MlCHIGAN Cl

Dean Henry M. Bates, of' the Law,
school, gave his annual talk to the
first year men in the Law school yes-
terday afternoon, speaking of the va-
rious new problems that they would
meet and ways to solve them.
He explained the rules for attend-
ance in the Law school as being nec-
essary, due to the requirement of most
state laws governing admission to the
bar which require that the candizate'
be certified as having attended "reg-
ularly" a recognized law school.
He also explained the efforts of:
the school to finid a fair plan of
gauging legal ability, resulting in the
present system, which was only put
into use after exhaustive tests ex-
tending over a period of three years.
Dean Bates explained carefully
that he was not "against" athletics or
outside activities but that the first
duty of the law student is toward his
work andthat his law studies should
occupy first place in his efforts.
In conclusion he briefly mentioned
the prominent pllace occupied by the
University of Michigan Law school in
the legal profession, sayin that it
was t he ambition of the faculty not
to turn out mechanical lawyerz who
culd slip into the shoes of older
men, but m'dn and women able to take
up the work where the older genera-
tion left off and to improve and adapt!
'our laws to present day conditions
and demands. f

With many more men responding to
the call for try-outs than can be fit-
ted with uniforms, the Varsity band
inaugurated its year with a rehearsal
in University'Hall Wednesday night.

However, the try-outs have not com-
pletely filled the vacant places and
there are still opportunities for good
musicians.
During the evening plans were dis-
cussed for making the band a social
as well at a musical organization.
Tentative arrangements are being
made for smokers and get together
meetings during the coming winter.
The majority of the band men vot-
-ed in favor of accompanying the foot-
ball team to Madison, Wis., on Nov.
12, instead of going to Urbana, Ill.,
on Oct. 29. As yet nothing definite
is known either way but one of the
two trips is assured. The Band
Bounce will be given in Hill audi-
torium a week before the game decid-
ed upon. The. band will be on hand
for the Traditions meeting at Hill
auditorium tonight as well as for the'
Mt. Union-Michigan game Saturday
afternoon.

committee on reorganization of the
association which was held at-2 o'clock
yesterday afternoon in room 302 of
the Union.
"The organization is at present too
large to carry on its work effectively,
due to the difficulty of getting in touch
with the educators in the different
parts of the state," according to E. L.
Miller of Detroit, chairman of the com-
mittee.. Mr. Miller explained how it
was planned to divide the association
up into five divisions each of which
would be complete in itself and would
elect officers to represent it at a cen-
tral convention where' all business-
would be transacted. This plan has
been tried with great success in Cal-
ifornia, Nebrask, Illinois, and several
other states, it was §tated.

New Dormitory
For Grls Opened
Adelia Cheever house, 516 Madison,
the newest dormitory for University
women, was opened this semester.
This home is the culmination of years
of hospitality offered .tudents by
Judge Cheever and Mrs. Adela Cheev-
er, who had occupied the residence
since' 1879.
After the death of Judge Cheever
the property was given to Miss Pame-
la Noble, a sister of Mrs. Cheever.
Miss Noble gave the house to the
University last year to be used as a
home for girls. During the summer
it was remodeled and refurnished at-
tractively to suit the needs of its 20
occupants. The houseis run on a co-
operative plan similar to the one used
at Alumnae house.
Miss Henrietta Scranton, a Vassar
graduate, is the social director.o

while the number 'entering the Medi-{

In time of prosperity, according to
Registrar Hall, there is always an in-
