Last night movies were shown in
room 348 of road machinery and high- #
way construction methods. More mov- I
ing pictures on the same subject will
be shown tomorrow night.
The conference, which is held year-
ly by tie University in order to supplyl
road comissioners with information'
relative to highway administration, I
organization, financing, traffic, drain'1
age systems, and foundations, and the
construction aid maintainence of,
roadways and briidges suitable for
roads and streets ih this state, is open
to students who aire interested in the
work.
Tickets are on sale in room 1024
for the informal dinner of the Michi-
gan association of road comissioners
and engineers in the Union, Thurs-
day evening. The smoker tonight is
without admission charge.
Co-operating with the College of
Engineering in staging 'this gathering

were assembled the members and
guests, Lieutenant Gordon T. Waite,
'22E, U. S. A., observer of the plane,
snapped pictures of the assemblage.
After taking several pictures the
plane again flew high in tihe air and
performed for its watchers. As the
party members gazed into the sky the
plane looped the loop time and again.
It was reported that there were sev-
eral people frightened by this who
were both motoring and walking down
Washtenaw avenue. The plane actu-
ally descended so low that a party in
an auto feared collision with it.
New offices of the Athletic associa-
tion will be opened within the next
two weeks in the Yost- Field house, it
was announced yesterday. All the
coaches will have their headquarters
at this place and the ticket office will
be located here soon.
