ATTORNEY S ASTOUNDED
A T ACT O F GOVERNOR
Withdrawal Comes After His Council
Fails to Introduce lian
Angl
Oklahoma City, Nov. 17-(By A.P.)
-The impeachment trial of Gov. J. C.
Walton unexpectedly was speeded to-
ward an early conclusion today when
the executive announced that he could
no longer "bear under the humiliation"
of an "unfair trial" and walked from1
the court room.
The executive's departure came a
few hours before the time set for the
prosecution to rest and on the eve
of his expected presentation of evi-
'denc in defense of charges of moral
turpitude, neglect of duty, corruption
din office and incompetency.
Governor Withdraws
The withdrawal gave strong evi-
dence that a final vote on acquital or
conviction would be obtained Monday.
The governor's unexpected leave-tak-
ing precipitated a scene unprecedet-
ed since the trial opened. Finishing
a short statement in which he an-
nounced his 'intention, the executive
turned, and with his wife on his arm,
walked the length of the Senate chai-
ber to the door, the members of his
counsel following.
Court members, amazed, watched in
silence while the prosecution started
at the empty chairs around the defense
table.
The governor's party, had almost
reached the door when Senator
Charles E. MclPherren, of Durant,
moved that :the trial proceed..
The chamber suddenly becathe a
scene of tumult. The cry for "go
'ahead" went up on all sides.
Notion Fails
But before the prosecution could
continue its interrogation of Aldrich
Blake, the Governor's former confiden-
tial adviser, on a motion, was made
to empower the court to appoint
counsel for the executive, but it was
voted down after the senators had
declared that his departure gave evi-
dence that he did not wish represen-
tatio.
- During this argument Senator Tom
Anglin of, Holdenvile, president pro-
tem declared that Tom Neal, a mem-
ber of the governor's council had ask-
ed that all defense subpoeneas for
witnesses be dismissed.
I. P. Sprague, one of the governor's
attorneys, who had tarried at the door,
Reclared he did mot believe that Neal
had made such a request.
Anglin infuriated
Anglin dashed madly at Sprague.
Senators and Sargeant at Arms sprang
between the two men and the session
broke up in a hasty recess.
Senators gathered in excited groups
marched about the chamber and a see-
bnd threatened clash was narrowly
averted when friends interposed in an
argument between Senators AE. .
Darnell, of Clinton, and John Golo
bie, of Guthrie
The governors withdrawal came
soon after his counsel had failed in
a determined effort to introduce what
appeared to be a Ku Klux Klan angle
'into the testimony dealing with the
charge that the executive has illegal-
ly appointed a large number of known
criminals and irresponsible persons as
special state police.
Burton Returns
From Long Tour
President Marion L. Burton, who
has been away the past week on a
speaking tour, will return to Ann Ar-
bor today. President Burton has ad-
dressed audiences in Chicago, Kan-
sas City, and St. Louis and ,attended
the inauguration of Dr. Stratton D.
Brooks, '96, as president of the Uni
versity of Missouri at Columbia where
he was principal speaker and the offi
cial representative of the University.
The convention of the national as-
sociation of state universities at Chi-
cago was attended by President Bur
ton last Wednesday. On Thursday, he

Ypsilanti. Miss Janis appears as the
artist for the first of five concert pro-
grams to be offered this season by the'
Normal conservatory. She is accom-
panied by a concert company made up
of violinist, pianist and tenor, thus
blending the light lyric stage with the

Janis, "is the ideal¢ concert for the
whole public."
This, Miss Janis' first concert tour,
has been made possible by spe.cial ar-
rangement with Charles B. Dilling-

proved successful. She is hailed as
one of the most delightful imperson-

Plan Spotlights of All Descriptions
In Making Spectacular
Scenes
Electrical equipment for the Union
opera "Cotton Stockings" this year is
as complete as that of any travelling
theatrical organization, and is super-
ir to that of any college or amateur
show in the country. A new portable
switchboard which has just been
completed will make "Cotton Stock-
ings" equipped electrically as well as
any show possibly can be.
Spotlights of every description,;
"baby spots", calcium lights, thous-
and watt lamps, artists lamps, ski-
opticons, and everything known to
stage electricians will be used in the
eighteenth annual opera which has its
opening night Monday, December 3, at,
the Whitney theater for a week's run.
Participating life members will re-
ceive mail order applications for
tickets tomorrow and will be given
two {lays' precedence over the next
succeeding classes.
Independent Equipment
For the first time in its history, the
Union opera will be entirely Inde-
pendent of the electrical equipment in
the theaters in the fifteen cities in the
East and Middle West in which it
will play during the Christmas vaca-
tion. The portable switchboard needs
just one connection in every theater,
that with the main line in the theater
and the show is ready to go on. For-
merly the show was dependent upon
the local theater's electrician, and its
stage lighting.
The electricians of the 1924 opera
are as necessary as the principals in
the cast, so important are the lighting
effects, and that is the reason that
the opera organization decided to
make itself electrically independent
and complete. The portable switch-
board Is equipped to carry all the
voltage required for the show, and it
L also has facilities for dimming all of,
its lights to get the smooth change
I in lighting instead of the broken effect
of abrupt switches.
Calcium Lights Provided
Spotlights are needed in abundance
for "Cotton Stockings". Twice the
number of "baby spots" are required
this year over the nees of the or-
dinary show. From the flys and foot-
lights 26 "baby spots" will play on
the smaller details on the stage and in
the scenery. A battery of four cal-
cium; lights will play on the members
of the cast and chorus from the bal-
cony.
Two artists lamps, peculiar dome
shaped lamps which measure more
than three feet will hang over art-

ON VETERANS BUREAU
Washington, Nov. 17-(By A.P.)-
Senate investigation of the veteran's

much" disturbed by the "irrevalent
and scandalous" testimony offered

more evidence of that character.
Six witnesses were heard during

The separatists continue to detach
territory in the Rhineland from the
German republic by proclamation
and today they proclaimed a Rhine-
land Republic at Sthifferstadt, in the
Palatinate, and took over the admin-
istration of affairs at Rockenhausen.
But they are meeting with consider-
able resistance.
At Himberg, in the district of Neu-
wied, a regular battle occurred yes-
terday between . the : separatists andE
peasants. The peasants were armed
with revolvers and hand grenades and
15 separatists were killed and a num-
her injured.
Eight Killed
Fighting was resumed this morning
at liommef and eight persons were
killed and more than 60 wounded. A
children's sanitar : m at Neuwied was
converted into a hospital for the care
of the injured.
At the request of the delegates of
the allied high commission at Bomm
a company of infantry was sent to
Hommef to restore order and disarm
the populace. A thousand separatists
were disarmed 'without resistance, but
many of the anti-separatists fled and
a detachment was sent in pursuit.
Looting Extended
French dragoons have surrounded
the woods where the anti-separatists
took refuge and are searching for
them. The Bavarian Palatinate gov-
ernment *which was ..obliged to sur-
render Steyer its capitol to the sep-
atatists has installed itself at Lud-
wighafen.
At Cologne a systematic looting
which has been going on for the past
three days, extended to private houses.

"Hail Michigan!
The Victors Return
The fighting'Wolverines bringing
added laurels for Michigan's crowvn
of victory will arrive at the Michi-
gan Central railroad station at 9
o'clock city time, this morning. Ev-
ery Michigan student who appre-
ciates the courage and perseverance
which this squad of men showed, in
the face of all difficulties, on the foot-
ball field at Madison yesterday will be
there to cheer them in, to welcome
them home, to publicly show his loy-
alty and his faith in this almost in-
vincible team.
In yesterday's game, another of the
Wolverines was seriously injured.
Jack Blott, who for three years has
exemplified the true Michigan spirit,
on and off the gridiron, was carried
from the field with a broken leg, nev-
er to play football for Michigan again.
On the train also will be "Utz" Uter-
itz, the brainy little quarterback, who
was taken from the field injured at
the Marinesgamerlast week and who
perhaps has worn a Michigan foot-
ball uniform for the last time.
The misfortunes which have be-
fallen these two veterans are the
misfortunes of a University. There
were other heroes, too, yesterday and
they are returning with a costly but
glorious victory this morning. The
train will arrive at 9 o'clock.
If you never met a team before,
obey the impulse this morning.
