Section Two Y 43Uf VOL. XXXIV. No. 2 ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 25, 1923 PRICE, FIVE - - - I 'I-.-- t PRESS' CLUBPLANS FIFTH COIVENTION Union Registers More Than 3,000' 50 NEV MEMBERS RHODES SCHOLAR TO PRACTICE LAW OVER 200 STATE WILL ASSEMBLE THREE-DAY JOU RNALISTS HERE FOR MEET, SIR RODERICK JONES OF REUTERS' TO SPEAK Guests to be Entertained at Ohio State Garnte and Galli-Curci Concert To date a total of well over 3000 stu dents have registered as members of the Union. This is 500 more that were registered last year at this time. Of the men registered, more thar 1500 are first year men. It is expect. ed that within, the next few days the registry will mount well toward the 5000 mark. In an effort to make as many of the men students as possible register, the Union plans this year to inaugu- rate the practice of calling for mem- bership cards at the door. It is thought that in this way many students who have formerly neglected to register will do so. The Union also plans to make more use this year of the advice cards, filled out by all first year men, and in which they tell their qualifications with re- gard to the various, extra-curricular activities. In former years these cards have not been used to the best advantage. A number of students have left their Treasurer's receipts at the Union when registering. These may be ob- tained by calling at the office of the Recording Secretary, on the third floor.

Stewart, j in charge of the work of the bureau. Until Saturday night the almost steady flow of students desiring work was taken care of with permanent More than 50 n!v members have been added to the varioi saculties of the University ac(cording to a list recently given out. Practically cv- ery department on the c campus has been enlarged by at least one man in this series of appointnents wliile the ceononies departmenlihas added five new men to its staff. The an- nouncement includes the names of local professors who ha v heen ad-j vanced and also a complete ;t oft new men who have been engaged for the coling year. Dean Ed ward I-I. Kraus, who in addition to his work as den of the Summer Session lh-s been conduct- ing the administration of the College of Pharmacy as acting-dean was ap- pointed full dean of the department by the Board of Regents at one of their last meetings of the year, while Dean Allan S. Whitncey was advanc- ed from acting dean of the School of lducation to full dean of that department. In addition, Prof. iar-- ley H. Bartlett has been made head of the botany department, and Prof. Kenneth (C. iWicMurray has been ap- pointed head of the department of geography, wlhic is now separate from the geology department. Engage Prominent )elen Among the most prominent of the new professors who have been en- gaged for the coining year is Pro- fessor John S. Worley of New York, who has been called to aesunme the new chair. of transportation in the Engineering school. Professor Wor- ley is a civil engineer of nat.onal repute. Ile is a member of the en- gineering board of the Interstate Cn mpo r m icin i ,~7} c cr. It is expected that, in addition to his legal practice, Carson will devote considerable time to speech-making in the interest of the newly-organized League of Nations Non-Partisan asso- ciation. The purpose of this associa- tion is to awaken the American peo- ple to the necessity of participation in the League of Natiofas. NEVI ZONE ORDNANC Contrary to an existing rumor, Ann Arbor's zoning ordinance which went into effect Sunday will not affect the building of fraternity and sorority houses, according to information se- cured in the office of the city enginee'r of Ann Arbor. Many persons were of the opinion that the new ordinance would prevent the construction of such buildings in districts classed as residential, but the law has been interpreted to mean that such dwellings may be placed in any of the four zones. The ordinance, passed by the Com- mon Council of the city of Ann Arbor September 4, 1923, divides the city into four classes, class "A", residential dis- trict ;class "B", residential ,distris but more restricted than "A"; class "C", local business district; and class "D", commercial and industrial dis- trict. The purpose as given in the ordinance is "to regulate and restrict the location of residences, trades, in- dustries, businesses and the location of buildings designed for specified uses." Each district has certain types of buildings which are prohibited, as in' class "A" only homes, municipal buildings and churches may be erect- ed. No dormitories may be built in sections designated as class "A" resi-I dential districts The ordinance, however, does not effect buildings which have already been constructed or those which are under the process of construction. Neither does this refer to the construc- tion of buildings where perrhits have been granted. Copies of the ordinance together with a map of Ann Arbor showing the designated districts may be secured at the office of the city engineer in the city hall.

Wal- UNION COMMITTEES ASSIST FRESHMEN Help First Year Men To Secure Rooms and Register For Work 2000 UPPERCLASS ADVISORS NOW ASSIGNED TO FRESHMEN Five Union committees have been actively engaged during the days of enrollment helping first year students to get in touch with their upperclass advisers, and students of all classes and colleges to secure rooms, and to register for the Union and the temp- orary Student's Directory. Rooms being plentiful, the Union committee has been able to locate nearly all students who have applied to it for room space. Members of the committee will be in the lobby of the Union from 9 until 12 o'clock this mor- ning and from 1 to 6 o'clock this af- ternoon. Beginning tomorrow, they will observe only the afternoon hours specified. Thomas Cavanaugh, '24, is chairman of the committee. 500 Upperclass Advisers Named Advisers have been assigned to more than 2000 freshmen, according to Charles W. Merriam, Jr., '25, chair- man of the Upperclass Advisory com- mittee. The committee has been at work since Tuesday making it pos- sible for first year men to get in touch with their upperclass gvisers imme- diately and to secure their assistance in registering and classifying. In response to letters sent to them during the 'summer, 250 upperclass- nen volunteered to act as advisers and these, together with approximately he same number obtained before the lose of school in June, completed the quota necessary to care properly ford the incoming class. t Following the close of the registra-r tion of freshmen, the office of the co-r mittee was moved from the first floor to the student offices of the third floor of the Union where they will be t open from 3 to 5:15 o'clock every af-c ernoon except Saturday. d JENTAL COLLEGE OFFR ( COURSE INUORTHODONTIA Post-graduate work in orthodontia t s a new course now offered in the c ental college under the direction of r.

The shaft, when completed, will be 4,000 in depth-1,000 deper than any other iron mine in this country. Blasting crews, working night and day, are making only slow progress, our and five feet daily being the av- erage. The rock is solid volcanic gronite and resists thse strongest steel drills. Added to the difticulty s the fact that the workmen mustI be lowered down the siaft and then, hoisted out after they have drilled the holes and set the dynamite charges. The shaft is a rectangular hole, 23 feet long and 10 feet wide. At pres-I ent the shaft is down about 450 feet.} This means that nearly two ind one-1 half years will be required, working very day in the year, to complete the haft alone. About 50 men are employed in sink- ng the shaft, which will be known as he Geneva mine.
