FIRST-HAND KNOWLEDGE OF
OLDER CIVILIZATION IS A
Details of the George G. Boot
Travelling Fellowship in Architectur
were made known yesterday whe
President Marion L. Burton receive
from Mr. Booth his suggestions fo:
the administration of the $20,000 fun
which he has donated. As a result o
several conferences with Prof. Emi
Lorch of the college of architecture
Mr. Booth suggests the following pro-
gram:
"The purpose of the fellowship is
to encourage advanced study and hell
provide a broader preparation for ar-
chitectural practice. The candidate
will be expected to go abroad be-
cause of the advantages, cultural and
otherwise, to be gained by a change
of environment and a first-hand
knowledge of older civilizations. At
the outset the fellowship is to be
awarded annually but it may later be
assigned bi-annually should standards
of scholarship or conditions affecting
the income or cost of travel and living
make it desirable.
Age Limit Set
"Students will be eligible who are
not more than thirty years of age on
the day set for beginning the compe-
tition in design. They shall either be
graduates of the college of architec-
ture of the University of Michigan or
shall have been in residence for and
have substantially completed the last
two years of the four-year course."
The candidates for the fellowship
will be passed upon by a jury of nine
architects, some of them non-resident
and others members of the faculty.
Indreaching its decision, the jury will
consider the following (1) the general
record and standing of the candidate;
(2)- the candidate's written statement
of not more than 500 words bearing on
his design; (3) student communica-
tions bearing on the design; (4) the
competition drawing.
"The award having been made",
Mr. Booth writes, "I believe that con-
siderable latitude should be allowed
to the winner of the fellowship as to
the manner in which he should use
the funds; anticipating that he would
seriously listen to such recommenda-
tions as the department chiefs might
deem it proper to make.
Suggests More Freedom
Thave in inind that in some cases
fellowships which provide for travel
abroad have been so limited that men
have been forced to spend their time
in a manner not very helpful to the
plans they have made to follow up
their chosen profession; one student
might wish to concentrate his entire
energies and the use of the entire
sum available in the study of archi-
tecture at Athens or Rome, or ifhist
Schief aim was residential work, it
might be most profitable to spend all
of his time in England, while others
again might profit by a more general
travelling program.
Mr. Booth's gift to the University is
in the form of fifteen-year bonds of
the Bedell Company of Michigan bear-
% ing six percent interest. The amount
available annually for the winner of
the fellowship is therefore $1,200.

FOR FAULTY CONCERTS
OCTOSER 28 IS DATE SET FOR
FIRST PROGRAM OF
SERIES
Faculty Concerts, to be given by
the School of Music faculty, the Uni-
versity Symphony orchestra, and oc-
casional visiting soloist-,, are being
carefully planned this, year, according
to the statement of Samuel P. Lock-
wood of the School of Music. Cham-
ber music will be featured particu-
larly in spite of the lack of proper
facilities for its effective production.
The programs will be systematically
planned and their aim will be to cen-
ter public interest in the music pre-
sented rather than in the performers
The University Symphony orchestra
has not yet been reorganized for this
year, but the director is planning to1
offer at least four concerts by that or-
ganization.

new members of the School of Music
faculty, Mis's Ora Larthard,
'cellist, and James Hamilton), tenor.

reer on the concert stage.

offered at intervals of about threer
weeks.

300 MICIUAN STUDENTS
ABROAD0 DURING SUMMER
More than 300 Michigan students
were abroad during summer vacation,
according to the estimation of local
authorities, besides about 40 members
of the faculty. One student traveler
remarked that he saw Michigan Union
pins gleaming in every large European
capital. It is thought that the large
amount of foreign travel this year is
due to the low rate of exchange in
most countries.
The male students used all possible
means of crossing the water, some go-
ing as part of the crew on freight and
cattle boats, and several secured jobs
as bell-hops on the Leviathan. An en-
gineering student, who worked his way
over and back, is said to have spent
a month and a half abroad, traveling
through France, Belgium and Germany
for only $150.
An interesting experience was had
by one junior lit who was arrested as
he stepped off the ship in Hamburg. Ile
could not understand the German Ian-
guage and so he remained in a cell
for two hours before he-could convince
the police that he was not the English
conidence man they were seeking.
One of last year's freshmen found
it profitable to remain in Europe and
so instead of returning this term, he
remained in the Ruhr district to write
newspaper articles. Another former
Daily reporter is studying art at Mun-
ich, Germany, in company with 20
other Americans. He states. that at
present prices they will be able to live
a year and attend school for $100.
The student publications were well
represented with the following men
across: E. C. McCobb, '23, former ed-
itor of Chimes; E. R. Meiss, '23, last
year's head of the editorial board of
The Daily; C. M. Kindel, '23E, assist-
ant manager of the Technic last year;
Joe B. Vlack, '23E, and S. B. Sloss,
'24, both assistant editors of the Mich-
iga nensian.

Beauty in
Rubber Fountain Pens

I
:.a

THE new Wahl Pen in engine-turned
black rubber is unlike any fountain pen
you have ever seen. Anyone who writcs will
be proud to own a pen of such grace and
splendid writing performance. It is as prac-
tical as it is beautiful.
The man's-size fist with the cast-iron grip
will find a Wahl Pen to fit it. And so will
the dainty feminine hand. There are sizes
and shapes to suit every man and woman in
college or business.
Wahl Pen is made by the makers of Ever-
sharp. It is another leader. The Wahl fill-
ing device fills the pen brim-full of ink every

time. The Wahl comb feed regulates the
flow so that the pen writes the instant you
touch it to paper. You never have to shake it.
The ink never floods.
The everlasting nib is 14-karat gold, tipped
with the hardest, finest iridium. Unbiased
experts say it is the ultimate in nib-making.
Clipped in pocket, purse or note book,
Wahl Pen cannot leak-the patented cap
construction prevents it. Wall Pen is so
perfectly balanced and proportioned that it
seems made just for your hand alone. It
writes perfectly. Ask your dealer about
Wahl Pen. All styles and sizes. $2.50 up,

yar- ntensive campaign seemn-
usually favorable. Up to this time
esponse to the call for funds has
been most gratifying and it is hoped
by those in charge of the work that
by means of the united efforts of both
students and alumnae even more suc-
cess will be achieved in the project
this year.
Correspondence has been establish-
ed with prominent alumnae of over
60 cities in the United States and in
many cases the alumnae have organ-
ized into definite working units, which:
hold regular meetings in order to co-
operate more effectively with the
University. More than 20 of the
groups are established in Michigan
and have recently carried on many
varied activities for the benefit of the
League fund.
Mrs. Herbert J. Goulding, treasurer
of the Central Campaign committee
reported total pledges and assets
amounting to $102,980.87 at a meet-
ing of the committee held on June 1.1
The campaign is being conducted with
the closest regard to minimizing all
expenses.
The last analysis of the University
made by the Central Campaign corn
mittee shows that the influence of
Michigan has spread to practically ev-
