Wickersham, president of the Non-Partisan League of Nations association of the United States, to speak in Hill auditorium was brought to light at a recent meeting of the Michigan chapter of the American As- sociation of University Professors. The situation, as explained yester- day by Prof. Jesse S. Reeves of the political science department, who is president of the Michigan chapter of, the professors' association, is as fol- lows: Will Consider Situation "At a meeting of the Michigan chap- ter held recently it was decided to ap- point a committee to consider from an academic point of view what might be thought to be for the best interest of the academic community as a whole, including both faculty and students, with reference to the free and full dis- cussion of important present day sub- jects and the use of University build- ings for that purpose. The committee, which has not yet been appointed but will be chosen soon, will consider the whole subject because of the refusal by the Regents' of the University to grant a request that the Honorable George W. Wicker- sham should speak in Hill auditorium upon the general subject of the League of Nations." Regents Refuse Request According to Shirley W. Smith, sec-' retary of the University, the Regents at their meeting last week refused to permit Mr. Wickersham to speak in1 Hill auditorium. He was to have been brought here under the auspices of the local organization of the League of' Nations Non-Partisan association. The request was refused on the' grounds that if the permission was granted there would be the danger of allowing a University building to be used for the propagation of political policies and that if such a practice was once started the requests for the use of buildings for that purpose would unquestionably be numerous. The Re- gents have at all times been against allowing University buildings to be used for partisan political gatherings. Women To Receive Athletic Awards "M" sweaters and numerals will be awarded this year to University wo- men in somewhat the same manner they are given to the men, according to the plan 'which the physical educa- tion department is now working out. Sweaters for honor points have been given in the past to women, but the system of awarding them was not sim- ilar to the one usd by the mn.' Although the plan is not yet com- pleted, one of the new features of it will probably 'be the possibility o winning numerals or sweaters fort ,'managing teams in the different sports. Th3e entire system will be announced ater.

Professor Campbell lost his sight several years ago, while performing some chemical experiments. With the aid of readers and assistants, however, he has continued his investigations in the field of chemistry, and has made several important contributions to the science. Mr. Mueschke was a student in the graduate school last year, and this year is continuing his studies, in ad- dition to his work as a teacher. He is preparing for a doctorate in Eng- lish, and is specializing in Shake- speare, and criticism on him.

P.)- A call for an extraordinary session of the, state legislature on Oct. 11 "for the purpose of an enactment of a law to protect the people from masked and' lawless marauders and secret organ- izations" was issued tonight by Gov. J. C. Walton. Simultaneouly a statement was made public by Aldrick Blake, executive councellor, declaring that "the gov- ernor is ready" and that he is "eager to meet the legislature." The govern- or's action was expected as a cha]- lenge for a finish fight with members of the legislature who have fought for impeachment. The governor's call precedes by less' than a week a session summoned by a majority of the members of the lower' house for Oct. 17. The call indicated that evidence in- duced by military courts of enquiry throughout the state would 'be placed before the legislature for anti-K. K. K. legislation. Councellor Blake declares that "the call indicates that martial law will be liften soon."

On the contrary, they arc urged to inspect it. Dr. Randolph G. Adams, the cus- todian of the Clements library, asserts, "The collection of John Carter Brown at Brown University and that of Henry Huntingdon at Pasadena, Cal. are similar in some resi)ects to the Clements library, but there is none' in the Middle West that can in any way compare with it. The University, is exceptionally fortunate in having become the repository of such a col- lection." Has SIhelburiie's Letters . One especially interesting series in the library is the letters, official and personal,.of Earl Shelburne, the first Lord Lansdowne, who was the British foreign minister at the close of the American revolution, lie was largely instrumental in conducting negotia- tions in 1783 at Paris with John Adams and Benjamin Franklin in securing recognition of the independence of the United States. These authoritative and complete documents have been pro- nounced by Dr. J. Franklin Jameson, dean of American histiographers, to be "a remarkable mine of informa- tion," and have been in the possession of the Lansdowne family until recently when Regent Clements procured them for his collection.

The covert hailI been flooded with the finmes of ammonia. The mutineers were found dead on the second floor. Eddyville, Ky., Oct. 6.-Rifles and machine guns which have been pour- ing a hail of bullets into the messI hall of the state penitentiary here, where three bandits have been bar- ricaded since a dash for liberty Wednesday morning in which three guards were killed, were silenced soon after dark tonight when besiegers who ventured from cover were not fired upon by the tenants of the im- provised fortress. Opinion was that the desperadore were dead or wounded. In view, how- ever, of the possibility that- the prisoners withheld their fire to pre- serve a small stock of ammunition for a last desperate stand it had been de- termined to maintain a guard about the place tonight and await daylight for future action. That one at least of the defendersI was alive was proved soon after fir- ing ceased when a man attempted to leave by the main doorway.

Ensian Pictures Disllaying a ragged brand of foot- ball, Michigan's 1923 Varsity grid- iron team opened its season with . a 36-0 victory over Case Scientific School yesterday afternoon on Ferry field in an unusually slow contest. It was about the same type of game that usually opens the year for the Wolverines except that Coach Yost's men did not show the same ability as they have during the pre- vious few years. Their playing was far below that of a year ago, and showed that the Varsity coaches have many rough spots to take off the dif- ferent members of the squad within the coming week. The Maize and Blue had flashes of brilliance but in general the game was typical of an opening contest in which the prevailing element is raggedness. One of the bright spots of the game was the playing of Herb Steger in the backfield. Twice the Oak Park boy grabbed a forward pass and tore across the goal line for a touchdown, giving a wonderful exhibition of open field running, and his other score coming as a result of a beautiful 60- yard run. Herrnstein also made a pretty 33-yard run for a score, through most of the Case eleven. End Runs and Passes Used The Varsity was compelled to resort almost entirely to end runs and for- ward passes owing to the inability of the practically veteran line to make a hole for plunging. Miller made some nice line smashes but was forced to make his own holes, as most of the time the forward wall failed to open up for him. Time after time in the early part of the tilt Uteritz would send a man through' the'- line only to have him fail to get past the point of scrimmage. Kipke Gets Best of Punting Captain Harry Kipke appeared to be in old time form, his drop kick being one of the features of the game. Kipke who had been replaced by les- ton at the beginning of the third quarter, was again sent into the game with the ball on the 40-yard line and on the next play booted the ball from the 48-yard line directly between the goal posts. His punting was excel- lent, the kicks averaging around 45 yards, and his running was responsi- ble-for many of the gains of the Var- sity. If there had been more blocking on the line, Kipke and all the other backfield men would have made more substantial gains. The line would let the opposing line sift through, and several times the runner would be thrown before he could even get away to a start. his own 38 yard line. Kipke then went hrough Takle for 8 yards and Miller made first down through the line. On the following plays Michfgan was penalized for off side. Kipke then kicked to Hall who fumbled and Cur- ran recovered for the Maize and Blue on the Case 37 yard line.
