The endowment fund proposed byj the Alumni association would be raised from the following sources: contribu- tions from alumni and local mer- chants, and surplus money left in class treasuries at the time of graduation. As a means of supporting the band until this permanent fund is raised the following plan is proposed. The Stu- dent council shall petition the Athletic association for $400 a year more than the $1250 now given for band support, in addition to the expense of half of the band uniforms every four years, and that the Alumni association will donate 25 per cent of the grid graph proceeds to the band, starting with the Wisconsin game Saturday. Committee Each Year The plan If agreed upon with re- gards to the grid graph proceeds, would provide that the Student coun- cil on behalf of the student bodywould furnish uniformed cheerleaders for the graph showings, and would secure stu- dent assistants for the management of the graph, and assist i« n the greater cooperation on the part of the student body. A committee will be appointed each year to have control of the handling. of the entire arrangement. It will, consist of a representative of the as- sociation as chairman, a member of the student council, appointed by the president, and the student manager of the band. The band will supply a band at each grid graph reproduction and through its student manager and assistants will assist the grid-graph committee:in the administrativeduties of running the board. Rumney Makes Statement At the meeting of the Student coun- cil following the gathering called by the Alumni association, a commttee composed of Howard A. Donahue, '24, Thonias J. Lynch, '24L, and Edward Fox, '25E was chosen to consider the matter further and report to the coun- cil. Bursley Declares Problem Of Alumni Influence Is SeriousA Hearty accord with the statements themselves, alumni with whom they concdrhing the ;liquor problem in uni- have some relation such as the fra- ternity connection, unquestionably versities, made by Regent Junius' E. i ne r nainnrt ;u l LIatrjII U II .i i Beal in Chicago, was expressed yes-I terday by Joseph A. Bursley, dean of students. Thq problem of the alumnus and his influence on student morals,i he declared is a serious one and has engagedathe attentin of administrat- ive officals in large universities ever since the 18th amendment went into effect., "Too much stress cannot be laid on the influence of the alumnus re- turning to his fra ernity house," he declared. "There is no doubt that un- dergraduates tend to subject them- selves to the influence of the "old grads" and look to them to a certain extent as a model for their conduct. When an alumnus brings back liquor to the house, members of the organ- ization feel that such conduct must be the proper thing. The most import- ant influence, however, is not the amount of intoxicating liquors brought back, but the stand the alumni take on the whole question of drinking. While college students should have suffic'ent judgment to dec'de such questions for piay a tare part Lne s u enL sae cision on such matters. "Many fraternities on the campus have already taken steps to prohibit drinking in the house. Circular let- ters to alumni requesting them to re-, £rain from bringing liquor into the house, and tokeep away from the house when under the influence of in- toxicants have had a significant effect on the enforcement of house rules in ;Is regard. Such a policy is to be commended and encouraged. "In considering the problem which is the most serious one with which we have to deal at the present time, it is essential to keep in mind that the background of the student plays a large part in his conduct after he ar- rives. The problem broadens into one{ whose scope includes the nation. The situation in the University has its background in the national moral problem. The college student, how- ever, must remember his responsibili-; ty as one who is given the best op-, portunity for intelligent thought on such propositions." p , I TO CLOSE TODAY1 Last Chance to Obtain Reduced Rate of $4.50 on Annual; Price Goes to $5.00 STUDENT COUNCIL" ELECTS COMMITTEE, Twenty-four Students Selected from1 Sophomore and Junior Classes As Sub-Organization RETURNS OF DRIVE SO FAR HUGH DUFFIELD, '24, TO ACT TOP ALL SALES LAST FALL I AS COUNCIL REPRESENTATIVE With a grand total of one thousand eight hundred and thirty one subscrip- tions obta'ned. the Michiganensian closed the second day of its three -day drive last night.

PREMIER BALDWIN WILL DISCUSS NEW POLICIES BEFORE HOUSE TODAY CONSERVATIVES FEAR RESULT OF PROTECTION Liberals Fight Laborites in Constitu- enoles, Giving Opposition =Victory London, Nov. 14.-(By A. P.)--Pend- ug Premier Baldwin.'s further exposi- ion of his protectionist policy, which will be made in the course of the de- ate on the labor censure motion in he House of Commons tomorrow, po- 'tical interest is wholly absorbed in active preparations in the various con- stituencies for a sharp election cam- paign. The cabinet had a long sitting to- lay when, it is believed, outlines of the government's pol'cy were laid own. There is evident misgivings and nervousness among the members of the conservative party generally, as; contrasted with the enthusiasm dis- played in the liberal and labor ranks. If the reunited liberal and labor parties could be induced to cooperate there is a very general belief that the protectionists would be defeated. The labor party, however, has consistently refused to cooperate with the liberals and as a consequence liberals are fighting laborites in the constituencies and giving seats to the conservatives on the minority votes. The expiring parliament was in point of fact elected on a minority vote of the electorate for this very reason. TAG DAY RISES $701 TO SNDBNDT1GM Michigan's 'fighting band" will go wvith the team to Wisconsin. This was decided yesterday when the tag day held to raise the necessary funds to finance the trip netted:-$700, making a. total of approximately $2,000 with the= money already raised. All of the fraternities and campus organizations have not yet turned in their :respective house donations. It is expected that another $100 will be added to the total when these contri- butions are received. The houses are asked to send in their donations, as soon as possible. The cheerleaders will also be taken on the trip, and if enough money has I been raised when all of the money is turned in the freshmen and reserve squads will also go. It is is the cus- tom each year to give these men a I trip if the finances can be obtained. 'DIAMIOD FUND"RISED TO FURTHERCOMMUNISM _ I Berlin, Nov. 14.-A "diamond fund" is being raised in Moscow to form propaganda abroad according to the anti-bolshevick Russian language newspaper which asserts that all ar- rangements have been made to carry out the rmost extensive campaign for the spread of communism ever at- tempted. The money for the fund is said to be derived from loyal communists who are selling their diamonds for a. tre- mendous drive in Europe and particu- larly in France. Just where the com- munists obtained the diamonds the newspapers do not try to explain, but they contend that large amounts have been sent to Paris to further the movement there. PURNE WILL DEVOTE SELFSO T HERLAND Oels, Nov. 14.-(Dy A. P.)-Prince Frederick William is overjoyed at his return to Germany after five years of exile in Holland. He spent the morn- ing going about the garden of his estate, accompanied by his wife, Prin- cess Cecilie, and later received the newspaper correspondents to whom he made the following statement. "I am glad to be back with my wife and children after nine years absence (this apparently including his years on the war front); happy again to be among my fellow citizens and to be able to share with them the great burdens of the fatherland. "It is my intention to devote myself to my nersonal estate in Oels and to See The Team Off! "When ale was king of the con- quered East And Michigan ruled the West" A crippled football team repre- senting the University of Michi- gan will leave Ann Arbor at 11:27 o'clock tonight to engage in one of the most crucial grid-iron bat- tles in the history of Wolverine football. If their student body, thous- ands strong, cheers them off at the station, the memory of those thousands at home tomorrow afternoon anxiously watching the report of the game will remain vividly in their minds as they face the Badgers. A big send-off will be an offering of good-will and it will impose a responsibility forcibly upon them. Cheer the team off to Madison! OPERA1 TICKETS TO GO ONSALE TODAY Cast, Choruses, and Committeemen Will Have Precedence in Buying Tickets. "COTTON STOCKINGS" OPENS LOCAL RUN ON DECEMBER 8 Mail order applications for tickets to "Cotton Stockings," eighteenth an- nual Union opera, will be received. this morning by members of the cast, chorus, committees and orchestra. These men will be given precedence for two days to get in their orders for a maximum of four tickets for the local run of the production which opens Monday, December 3, at the Whitney. Box Sale Opens Nov. 29 Performances will be held on Mon- day, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday evenings, and Saturday afternoon of that week. Prices of seats are the same as in former years. The entire lower floor sells for $2.50 per seat, while seats in the first four rows In the balcony are $2, the sec-i ond four rows $1.50, and the balance of the balcony $1. On Saturday morning, after cast, chorus, committees, and brchdstra have had their two days' precedence, maIl order applications will be sent to full paid life members of the Un- ion who in turn will have two days' precedence. Then' at intervals of two days thereafter, aplilcations will be sent to participating life members of the Union, and to the yearly mem- bers. A box office sale for University women will be held soon thereafter, followed by a - box office sale begin- ning Thursday, Nov. 29, at the Whit- ney, for the general public. Opera Nearly Ready Mail orders will be filled in the or- der of their receipt. The reason for the two days' preference given to each group is to enable members of one group to send in during the period and have their orders filled in advance of the next group. Preference is lost after the group's time has expired. It is important that more than one I choice for- seats be specified in the order. Often excellent seats can be given at one performance, while the house may be sold out for another performance, the one specified. Rehearsals for "Cotton Stockings" have proceeded with more dispatch than in former years and the opera is practically. ready to be presented I right now, according to E. Mortimer Shuter, director. With more than two weeks additional in which to put on t the finishing touches; he believes that the production will be at its best the first night.
