There ar ow slightly over 300 students and faculty mem- bers who have not yet dent in their applications and the ticket office will hold seats for them up until Nov. 18. This means that approximately 40,- 000 tickets have been sold tp to date almost two weeks before Ithe game. On Nov. 1 the quota reserved for al- umni was completely exhausted, more than 18,000 reservations having al- ready been made for grads, and it was estimated that if more tickets had been available they could have been sold at the rate of 1,500 a day. Since then hundreds have been turn- ed away from the ticket offices and money returned to more than 1,000 alumni. Student and faculty applica- tions have all come in except for 300. One reserved seat is being, held for each of these student and faculty cou- pon book holders and may be obtain- ed until Nov. 18. After this day they1 will be used to help fill the alumni overdemand.

Prevents Further Rescue) Work Until Entry Caut Be Cleared (By Associated Press) Spangler, Penn., Nov. 6.-Fifty-five of the 94 miners who went down into the Reilly mine of the Reilly Coal company here this morning, a few minutes before the working was torn by an explosion, were unaccounted for when the rescue crew came up the shaft at 10:30 tonight and all are be- lieved to have lost their lives. Hope that some of the missing men were still alive was reflected in re- Sportswhich came to the surface that a brattice, built of old timbers by miners after the explosion had cut off a part of number eight heading to the left of the main entry, had been found. "Look Behind This Wall" "Look behind this wall", had been burned in a smooth place on a tim- ber by an acetylene lamp. Knowing that experienced miners would take every means to help their rescuers. this startling sentence was taken to mean that the men were still alive. but no attempt was made tp tear down the brattice for the main° entry was filled with gas, and the United States bureau of mines engineers feared that such a course would send ( the deadly poison to where the men, already weakened by hours of anxi- ety, and unprotected by oxygen hel- nits, were hidden. Gas Kills Canaries They hoped to have the entry in a 1 short time cleared of gas, when they said the brattice would be demolished.7 They determined on this course after one of their canary birds, taken withl them from Pittsburgh, had died iri the foul air. At another point in the mine a c heavy fall of slate from the roof had completely clogged the entry. Backe of it, rescuers declared, they could' hear voices, and they attacked it vig- orously, in the hope of finding some J of the entombed men alive, althoughi they received no answer to repeatedi calls.E Rescuers Work Steadily Rescue forces were made up of skilled miners from Spangler and vi- cinity in charge of engineers from the United States bureau of mines and the mine rescue crew of the Cambria Steel company, which arrived this af- ternoon. - They worked unceasingly in shortf relays, bratticing the working so asr to move the gas and admit the pure air from above. No indication as to1 when the work would be completed was announced.r J LITS TO AGAIN ELECT COUNCILMEN A meeting of the junior lit class for the purposeof, electing two ma mbers to the Student council will be held at 3 o'clock tomorrow afternoon in Na- tural Science auditorium.

CLASSES MAYPAY DUES AGAIN TODAY Booths Will Be Open at Same Places In Order That All May Participate WILL BAR THOSE NOT PAID FROM ACTIVITIES OF CLASS Treasurers of all classes in the en- gineering and literary colleges with .he exception of the freshman literary class will continue to collect dues to- day. The returns from "Class Dues Day" yesterday were satisfactory, ac- cording to Thomas J. Lynch, '25L, but is was felt that everyone did not have a chance to pay on account of the crowds between classes. The senior literary class collected the highest amount of any in the Un- iversity, taking in more than $700. Less than 50 sophomores and 100 jun- ior lits had reported by 5 o'clock when the lit booth in University hall closed. Approximately 10 per cent of the students in the engineering col- lege paid their dues at the table in the second floor corridor of the Engineer- ing building. Classes in the Medical school and Dental college did not participate in the general drive, as members have been solicited by individual subscrip- tion. Many of the classes in these schools have more than a 90 per cent payment to date. Treasurers of all classes wish it to be understood that undergraduates who do not pay their dues will be ex- cluded from all class activities. It is desirable that dues be paid in order that these activities may be commenc- ed as soon as possible. Representatives of the lit classes will be in the booth of University hall from 9 to 5 o'clock today. Engineer- ing students may pay their dues in the second floor corridor of the Engin- eering building. Hobbs To Talk At Press Club Meet Members of the Students' Press club will hear Prof. W. H. Hobbs, of the geology department, at the club's regular bi-monthly meeting and lunch- eon at 6:05 o'clock this evening at the Union. Professor Hobbs will speak of his experiences abroad last year and will also touch on the relation of the newdpaper to scientific research, There will be music during the luncheon, and it is reported that the Press club's own newspaper, "The lorgue," will make its initial appear- nce at the conclusion of the meeting. Admission will be by membership ard. Tickets tothe luncheon will be n sale today at the Michigan Union esk and the Women's League booth n University Hall. PROPOSE TO 9ADD TWO MEMBERS TO SENATECOUNCiL DESIRE TO TAKE IN DEAN OF WOMEN AD DR. F. E. ROBBINS WOULD RESTOR E C UAPEL SERVICES ON CAMPUS Committee Determined to Recommend Candidates for Honorary Degrees Recommendations which may lead to the addition of two new members to the Senate Council, and reports on current affairs of the University were brought here before the Senate Coun- cil and the University Senate in their regular meetings yesterday. A proposal originating in the Coun- cil meeting recommended -that the dean of women and the assistant to' the president, Dr. Frank E. Robbins, be made members of the Senate Coun cil. Dean Jean Hamilton is a member of the Senate by action of the Board of Regents. The recommendation wa referred to the Senate for final ac- tion. Paul L. Buckley, assistant secretary of the University, was appointed fi- nancial secretary of the Union to suc- ceed Prof. Evans Holbrook. The ap- pointment was made by a committee consisting of Dean Alfred H. Lloyd of the Graduate school and Dean Hen- ry M. Bates of the Law school. A communication from Prof. Fran- cis W. Kelsey, suggesting that the Un- iversity revive the custom of holding chapel services, was approved unan- imously by the members of the Senate council and later referred to the Sen- ate for consideration. The latter body placed the matter on the program for its next meeting, Jan. 15. Says It Formerly Existed In his letter to the council, Profes- sor Kelsey stated that such an insti- tution formerly existed, and that it could be restored in the form of pure- ly non-sectarian services. ;He ,ug gested that it be held in conjunction with the Wednesday Twilight recitals, given by the School of Music, the serv- ices to consist of choir singing and an address on a subject n keeping with the spirit of the meeting and consistent with the unbiased attitude of a state institution on religion. A discussion of the method used in recommending candidates for honor- ary degrees at the 1923 Commence- ment, resulted in a decision to turn over the work of recording the names of candidates to a committee to be appointed by the Senate Council. This work was done last year by Frank E. Robbins, assistant . to the President. The process of receiving recommenda- tions for degrees from committees of the University faculties will be used as in former years. Final action on the names of the candidates will probably be taken on Dec. 11. Bursley Reports Shooting Incident An amendment to the plan of or- ganization of the Senate Committee on student affairs, to- make the mem- bership of that body rotative, was brought before the Senate Council meeting. The amendment was later referred to the Senate meeting. Dean Joseph A. Bursley read a re- port on the shooting of a University student by an officer at Carey, 0.
