MEISS, '23, IS AUTHOR OF STORY, LYRICS, AND MUSIC SHUTER OPTIMISTIC OVER POSSIBILITIES and Honesty Emphasized Fundamental Michigan Traditions As Service to the University and pre- servation of her traditions was the byword impressed upon the freshmen by the Traditions Day speakers in the fifth annual celebration of the cere- mony held last night in Hill auditor- ium. "The importance of traditions can- not be overemphasized," said Carl Johnson, '20, alumni speaker for the. evening and famous Michigan track athlete. "Following Michigan tradi- tions makes a Michigan man and puts the stamp of Michigan on you, which remains with you wherever you go. Now is the time to make them a part of your life-" Glee Club Sings "Laudes Atque Carmina," sung by the glee club, after several selections by the Varsity band, officially opened the meeting. The auditorium was completely filled with students as Vernon F. Hillery, '23, president of the Student council and student speaker for the evening arose to give the initial address. Prof. William A. Frayer, of the his- tory department, was the second speaker on the program. In speak- ing of the specific' traditions of the University he said, "The tradition of studies is one of foremost importance, not only for the new men but for all of us. It is for that that we are here." Student honesty in examinations and in everyday life was also touch- ed upon by the professor. As a bit of advice for the coming Ohio game, when it is expected that a majority of the school will go to Columbus, he said, "When you go away from Michi- gan and down toColumbus next week don't forget that you are still Michi- gan men and expected to act as such." Johnson Speaks Carl Johnson, '20, was the final Traditions day speaker. Before com- mencing his address, he asked thej freshmen class to stand so that every one might have a chance to view the new class of '26 as a body. After they had reseated themselves he began, giving the definition and value of traditions and the unifying influencej which they have over a new class. In urging the new men to stay together as a definite unit in University life he said, "Serve your University and live up to her traditions and you will stay together as Michigan men throughout your entire lives." "The Victors," and "Varsity" were then played by the band and the sing- ing of "The Yellow and Blue" marked the end of the program. FURLONG HONORED Harold A. Furlong, '24M, left last night for New Orleans, where he ,will attend the fourth annual convenition of the Ameircan Legion next week.

GILBERT PARKERT ,1K UI 9 Famous English Author and States. man Is Substitute on Lecture Course Work of Casting and Development of Dance Speclalties Near Completion Averages 105 Miles Per l our Heavy Army Transport Plane ih SECOND RACE OVER SAME COURSE WON BY H. HARRIS Mt. Clemens, Oct. 12.-Piloting al heavy Martin transport driven by two 400 horsepower Liberty motors, Lieut. D. H. Nelsin, of Mt. Clair, N. J., won the Detroit News aero mail trophy race for multi-motored planes here today. He covered the 220 miles tri- angular course at an average speed of 105 miles an hour. The Detroit Aviation Country club trophy race flown over the same course was won by Lieut. Harrol H. Harris, one of two army entrants in the "Honeymoon' Express" equipped with 'a 400 horsepower Liberty twelve motor. Lieut. Harris averaged 135 miles an hour in this event, which was for light commercial planes, finishing four' laps ahead of C. S. Jones in a Curtis Oriole, who averaged 110 miles an hour. A stiff northwest wind blowing up the tails of the big planes in the Detroit News event made necessary abandonment of the original plan of starting all of. the craft together. Consequently the planes, each weigh- ing 5 tons and having a wing spread of 70 feet, took the air one after the other. Lieut. Nelsin's plane flying high was the last to cross the startinig line. Tha transport began at once to over- haul the other racers and before the race was three-quarters over it was seen that unless forestalled Lieuten- ant Nelsin would win. URGES SPEED AT EAST CONFERENCE Constantinople, Oct. 12.-Lieut.-Gen. Frank Charles Harrington, the Brit- islA commander-in-chief here, will press the Allied powers for an early convening of the peace conference which he believes will be the most important council of world powers since Versailles. It is expected that the League of Nations will require from two to three months at least as the questions for decisions are of the widest impor- tance, including the vital interest of all of Europe and will likely involve many matters entirely +outsidd the Near East. The Allied authorities here will op- pose the selection of Constantinople for the meeting of the .conference. Soph 'Ensian Tryouts Needed All sophomore men wishing to try out for thj business side of the Michi- ganensian, are asked to report after 2 o'clock any afernoon this week. Crowds Viewing Wrecked Plane After Crash Buffeted by a stiff wind, the bi g Curtiss triplane, piloted by Lieut. R. Irvine, crashed into a pier at De- troit and was badly damaged. So far this has been the only accident to planes assembled for the Pulitzer races. Hundreds of curious persons inspect ed the wreck after the crash. GRAPH OPERATOR EXPECTED TODAY. Deserted Campus DENTAL ADDITION ,II Predicted Today r Apparatus and Equipment for Eleetric Score Board Arrive New ALUMNI ASSOCIATION NAMES ASSISTANT TO RECEIVE NEWS Electrical apparatus and equipment for the grid graph, the electric score board which is to reproduce the Van- derbilt game in Hill auditorium Sat- urday afternoon, has arrived and the operator for the machine is expected today. The set requires only one man for operation, all the lights being con- trolled by one switchboard. This man will be sent from the Potter and How- enstine company of Columbus, makers .of the grid graph, and will do both the installing and working of the ap- paratus himself. To assist this man, however, the Alumni association has asked John Bacon, '23, 4ublicity man for the Ath- letic asociation, and a member of the reserve team, to be at the special Western Union wire when the plays come in. It is felt that with two men there who are connected with the foot- ball squad and have a knowledge of the technicalities of the game, better results may be obtained. The band and cheerleaders will al- so be in the auditorium when the re- ports come in. An admission fee of 35 cents will be charged to help cover the operating expenses. Tickets are now on sale at the Union, Huston's, the Alumni association office, Gra- ham' book stores, and Wahr's State street store. Ohio Block "M" IS Now Assured Michigan wil have a block "M" at the Ohio State game Oct. 21 at Co- lumbus. The Booster's club under the direction of the Athletic association will sponsor the buying of the mater- ials and will lay out the "M" at the game. Banners of yellow and blue will make up the mammoth letter. Instead of having flags on sticks, this year the banners will be larger in size and will have two safety pins attach- ed on two corners' so that the banner may be pinned on the front of all per- sons in this particular section. The "M" will thus be visible at all times whether the crowd be seated or stand- ing. The flags which will be tacked to the seats in the Michigan section are to be worn by all those who have tickets in the section. The section marked out may be seen on the blue- print in the window of Graham's Book store. Auto Club Logs Road to 0. S. U. Mr. L. F. Van Nortwick, secretary of the Ann Arbor branch of the Detroit Automobile club, left early Wednes- day morning, Oct. 12, to log the road between Ann Arbor and the Ohio State university stadium. He will se- cure information concerning the route, road conditions, and hotel ac- comodations. Nebraska Launches Drive for Stadium Left-handers,nhump-backs, and cross-eyed persons can hold- merry wassail today, but the beautiful should stay in-doors. Cuz why? Its Friday, the thirteenth The sixth day in the week, histor- ians say, was named after Freya, the' ancient Anglo-Saxon goddess of beau- ty. If' mythology can be believed, however, the charming goddess was on poor terms with the classical fore- runner of Lady Luck. From time im- memorial, beauty has been unlucky. Look at Anne Boloyn, or Marie An- toinette or any of the delectable maids from Evelyn Thaw right back to Eve herself. The breaks were al- ways against them. Tradition says left-handers, hump- backs, and the cross-eyed. ones are immune to the evil spell of Friday, the thirteenth. But, beware if you are beautiful!

L. Ward, dean of the College of Dental Surgery. In addition to the new structure the facilities have been greatly improved by an entire remodelling of much of the old building. The original build- ing, erected in 1908, was at that time. entirely adequate for the work, but owing to recent improvements in methods of teaching and a consider- able increase in the size of the school, HAS AND SENIOR LITS{ ELECT OFFICERS TODAY GIBSON AND HALL NOMINATED FOR PRESIDENT BY '23 CLASS Elections for all the law classes and the senior literary class will be held from 9 to 3 o'clock today in the Law building and University hall, respect- ively.

ENGINEERS DOING RESEARCH STUDY With prospects that definite conclu- sions will be reached in the near fu- ture, Prof. B. F. Bailey, acting head of the department of electrical engineer- ing, and five assistants are continu- ing their research stury of the ac- tion of induction motors with unbal- anced voltages. The work has been in progress for three years, Professor Bailey being assisted by two assistants, and three students who receive credit in elec- has since been found inadequate. With the new additions the Michigan dental college will again be placed in a prominent position among dental schools throughout the country, being rivaled, it is said, by only two. It will now be able to accommodate a senior class of 200, which means that an enrollment of 800 may be easily taken care of. This is as considerable more than the present enrollment. The next important feature of the remodelled building is the greatly en- larged operative clinic, containing 200 chairm, and equipped with every conceivable improvement. Much of the old equipment, now obsolete, has been scrapped. The construction of a new amphitheater for demonsra- tive and teaching. purposes. has also been made possible by the building of the addition. Ex-Student Finds Indian Trinkets In Lenaway County ADDRESS BY JUDGE KENYON PREVENTED BY COURT RULING Sir Gilbert Parker, distinguished British novelist publicist, traveller, and, statesman, has been secured .by the Oratorical association to take the place of Judger William S. Kenyon, who is unable to fulfill, his lecture engagement here for Tuesday, Oct. 17, because of a court ruling which forbids members of the supreme bench delivering speeches of this kind. Oratorical association officials con- sider themselves particularly fortu- nate in having Parker here at this time, being able to obtain him next Tuesday while he is on his limited transcontinental tour. For years Sir Gilbert has been a prominent figure in English and world politics, thr ugl his long service iii parliament, and his experience on special commissions during the war. Besidesbeing high in the field' of political issues Parker has achieved outstanding success as a, novelist and publicist resulting from his own extensive writings. The University Oratorical associa- tion offers an opportunity to hear an internationally known writer, travel- ler and statesman. Due to its com- prehensive program of well known men the association's season tickets have been selling with marked suc- css. Some tickets are still availa- ble and may be procured at thet rate of $3 for the reserved section and $2.50 for the unreserved divisions. Single admissions to the Sir Gilbert Parker lecture may be obtained for $1; '16 COURSES PLANNED BY EXTENSION SERVIC S SC DETROIT, BIRMINGHAM, PONTIAC, * LANSING, AND FLINT INCLUDED "In and Out" is the name of the 1923 Michigan Union opera which will open in Ann Arbor, on Dec. 4, and play here the rest of the week. The story, lyr- ics, and music were all written by Edwin R. Meiss, '23, who has been working on the book since early last spring. This is the first time in the history of the opera that the complete piece has been written by one man, and the work shows the effect by having a more complete unity of story, lyrics and music than ever before. Accord- ing to E. Mortimer Shuter, director of the opera, this year's book will offer a better vehicle than any he has used heretofore. Has Two Acts There are only two acts to the piece, the first with a setting in Hol- land during.rthewtulip blouing time, and the second in New York. The dances and songs are worked into the action often and, according to the di- rector, should blend well. Most of the dances for the piece are now set, work having begun on that phase of the opera last spring under the direction of Roy Hoyer- It is expected that Mr. Hoyer will be in Ann Arbor again in the near future to put the finishing touches on this work and to set a few novelty steps. The positions in the cast and chorus are now being filled by the director from the large number of tryouts who have appeared, but work has been de- layed on this in order that men may be picked who will fit into the various partz. Opens Here Dee. 4 The production will open here Dec. 4 at the Mimes theater where it will play on Monday night only. It will start atthe Whitneyhon 'Tuesday, Dec. 5 and play for the rest of the week. Only about eight weeks now remain before the first performance and work on the piece has begun in earnes w, Work on the posters for this year's opera will begin on Monday when Mr. Shuter will meet all men who are interested in entering the contest at 5 o'clock in his office in the Mimes theater. All men who plan to enter should get in touch with Mr. Shuter on or before this time. 'Ensian Stages Proster Contest NEW ACT ADDED TO MIMES THEATER PROGRAM Substitution of Dewey, '23, Also An. nounced For Tonight One more act has been added to the week-end program at the Mimes thea- ter, making six acts in all -which will appear at the theater tonight and to- -morrow. "The Dream Waltz" featur- ing Gordon Weir, '24, anid Donald Ba- chome, '24, is the name of the new act. Thomas Dewey, '23, will take the place of the Midnight Sons quar- RESULTS Have you ever advertised in the classified columns of The Daily? If you have, it's safe to say that you know what Results are. "Results" means not only answers, but also a sale, or renting. One answer to an ad may be just as important to you, if it makes a sale, as any tette, which is prevented from ap- pearing. Weir and Bachome have both done work-in campus dramatics previous- ly. Weir did an oriental danbe at the opening of the second act in last year's opera, "Make It For Two," and also appeared in the Ann Arbor pro- duction of "Oh, Oh, Cindy" which played here two years ago. He has acted in several band bounces and spotlight vaudevilles. Dewey, who is a soloist, will be re- membered as playing a part in the 1921 Union opera, "Top o' the' Morn- in'" and has since appeared at sev- eral private entertainments on the campus. Besides these two acts, there are five others. A one act play under the direction of Carl Guske, grad, and called "In the Morgue" is the feature of the program. James Johnson, '23, with Rhodes' orchestra, Buckley C- Robbins, '23, and C. James Dresbach, '24, and company, and "The Argentine Tango" by Germano and Feinseth, Indian trinkets of great interestr have been found'on a body which was unearthed from. a gravel pit near Tecumseh in Lenaway county. This pit was on the property of a former# student of Dr. W. B. Hinsdale, for- mer dean of the Homeopathetic school, and the collection was presented,1 through him, to the University Mu-; seumo. This Indian represents the transi- tion period in the history of the American Indian between 'his first encounter with the white man and his' adoption of the white man's ways- The archives of Lena*ay county state that the earliest white inhabi- tants arrived in '1824 when the white population in Southern Michigan was exceedingly sparse. With the advent of the white man the bow and arrow was replaced by the gun, and, as a Chert arrowhead was found located in the left breast, we have reason to believe that this Indian was killed some time previous to this period. The body, in an excellent state of preservation, was found lying some three feet from the surface, surround- 'ed by a collection of wampum beads, deeply stained bones of small ani- mals, and even a suggestion of a looking-glass. 1Mimes Stage Tryouts Planned All men who worked last spring on,.
