(By A. P.) -Worry over financial difficulties in- volving real estate transactions com- bined with ill health is assigned by close friends as the cause for Senator Frank Brandegee, of Connecticut, committing suicide here early today. The body of the 60 year old senator wasfound in an unused room in the upper floor of his spacious residence this morning by his secretary, W. Don Lundy, and chanffer,-George Jones. They were directed to the room by a note left on his desk which gave no motive for the act. A tube attached to an open gas jet was In the hand of -Mr. Brandegee, who lay fully dressed on the floor. Coroner J. Ramsey Nebitt, after an examination, issued a certificate of death which he said resulted from sui- cide accomplished by inhaling illumi- nating gas. Senator Brandegee, a bachelor, lived alone except for two negro servants. When last seen alive yesterday by his secretary and chauffer they said he appeared in the best of spirits and health. He was at home alone last night. Mr. Brandegee was the senior mem-' her of the senate from his state and in his 19 years of service there had taken an active part in the leadership of the Republican party. le was chair- man of the judiciary committee and one of the leaders on the foreign rela- tions committee, His death, coupled with that of Senator Colt, of Rhode Island, recently, cuts the Republican membership in the sonate to 49, a. bare majority. It is expected however, that both seats will be .filled before Congress meets again in December for the short term.. The senator had no immediate blood relations and arrangements for the funeral were taken in charge by his secretary and officers of the sene. Cr OFCOMMERCE TO SENDCHEERLEA0ERS1 Michigan's cheer leading squad will be sent to the Michigan-Illinois foot- ball game at Urbana next Saturday, it was announced yesterday by offi- cials of the Chamber of Commerce. In the recent drive for funds to send the 72 piece Michigan band to the Illinois game a considerable surplus was secured and with this extra money the Chamber is going to send five of the cheering squad instead of only one as was first planned. A new bass horn, not a bass drum, as was previously announced, will e presented to the Michigan hand by' the club. Of the 12 cars which will make up the Chamber of Commerce special train to Illinois, seven have already been filled and reservations are still coming in. The complete details for the parade in Urbana are not as yet known, but the business men are pre- pared to do their share in the cele- bration. JOHNS HOPKINS ALUMN TO WELCOME PHROST In preparation for an expected visit of the provist of Johns Hopkins uni- t versity, F. J. Goodnow, alumni of that university who are now in Ann Arbor, have been requested to send their names, addresses, and phone numbers to James Hart of the political science department. He can be reached at 1015' Church streat or by calling 530. Mr. Hart is acting as temporary sec- retary until an alumni club can be formed, for which purpose the provost is planning to visit Ann Arbor. In view of the fact that the day first setI for his stop was Saturday, October 25,1 the day of the Wisconsin game here, it is thought that a postponment will be necessary. The names of alumni are being gathered so that they may be notified when the meeting is finally' called.

Detroit, Oct. 14. (By A. P.)-All of the energy which city officials of De- troit planned to expend in welcom- ing the Prince of Wales, when hist visit to Detroit was recently an-1 nounced, was turned today to seeing that Edward David Windsor, a pri- vate citizen of Great Britain, was not disturbed while he visited Henry Ford, a private citizen of the United States. About the Prince, the Ford orga- nization, assisted by a few detectives detailed by the police department, threw an impenetrable wall. Photo- graphers, newspapermen, and thou- sands of others who for divers rea- sons believed they would be able to accompany the party during the tour of the automobile plants of the Ford Motor company were unable to get even close to the distinguished visitor. E A huge crowd which began gather- ing early in the day around the rail- road yards at the Highland Park, plant of the Ford company, got the first sight of the Prince as he waved1 greetings from the observation plat- form of his private car. Once inside the Ford grounds he was not seen Edward Daid Windsor again until a smaller group gathered. on Woodward avenue saw him through the large windows as he passed through the. power room of the main plant. After that le dis- appeared and the crowd, tired of wait- ing finally dispersed. The inspection of the Ford con-j pany plant took about two hours. Following this the Prince was taken ta the Detroit club where he dined with Mr. Ford and a few in- vited guests. Later there was recep-! tion and dancing at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Edsel B. Ford. The Prince's special train was scheduled to leave at midnight for Toronto. IS. C1 Ag O UTLINES f PLANil FOR DRIVE To Organize in Ten Teams, Composed Of Fifty Men, Headed by Captains # SET $5000 GOAL At a meeting of captains appointed for the annual drive for funds for the Students Christian association held last night in the Green Tree inn, Earl P. 'lawyer, '25A, outlined the pains for the pendimg 'campaign. The orga- ,nization of the drive will include five hundred, men, working in teams of fifty, each team having one captain and five lieutenants.. The goal set by Sawyr is five thousand dollars. "Last year we' got forty-five hundred dollars, but owing to the enlarging of the scope of activity of the associa- tion, we are asking the campus for more this year. Our Freshman biblesl have necessitated an unusual ex-t pense which we feel is well spent,1 and we are, through the new cabinet offices, better able to serve the stu- dent body than ever before," he said. c The committee in charge of tyrel drive includes, Earl P. Sawyer, '25A,} general chairman; Perry M. Haydenc '25, president of the association; John H. Elliott, '26, in charge of the' captains; and Maurice P. Rhodes,! '25L, in charge of fraternity speak- ers. The captains as announced last night are: Carlton Lindstrom, '25,t Rensis Likert, '26, Roy Dalblrg, '25, t ('harles Higley, '26, Millard Pryor, '25, Hans Tobler, '26, Eugene Power, i '27, Earl Blaser, '27, Milton Kane, '27,1 and Robert Waterman, '25.l "There will be no pledges acceptedl in this year's campaign," said Sawyer# to the captains. "Wisconsin and other large universities are able to; raise the hard cash, and we can if, they can. Every man on the cain- pus will be given opportunity to aid in this drive with his time if not with his money." The drive will begin the evening of November 4, continuing for three days through the sixth. Vienna, Oct. 14.-Housing conditions are so bad that divorced couples must continue to live together. Vs).'I.MAYO; '83,,TO1 TALK HEREDEC,. 5 Endomment of *5000 Makes Lecture Course Possible Here for First Time IS FAMOUS PHYSICAIN Dr. William J. Mayo, 83M, world renowned surgeon, will speak here 'on Friday, December 5, as the first lec- turer on the endowed lecture course i which lie gave the University last June. Dr. Mayo offered in contribute $5,000# for an endowed ecturcship on the subject of surger at that time and hiss gift was aecep- ,d by the Board of Regents in their final meeting of last semester. The interest on the sum given will be used to provide an hon- orarium for the men who will speak. While Harvard, Columbia, and other; American colleges have had endowedt lectureships, this is the first one in the history of.the University. Dr. Mayo graciously consented to be the first speaker on the course and has prom- ised to send many of his eminent colleagues here in order that it may be three or four years before it will be necessary to draw on the principal of the fund.k Dr. Mayo provided that the money should be used to get renowned men to lecture on the subject of surgery.. His object in establishing the fund; was to provide a medium so that the medical students could come in con-I tact with a variety of distinguishedj surgeons from this country and abroad at different times throughout their course. "There is probably no graduate of Michigan who has so profoundly af-< fected the medical practice as I.' Mayo," says Dean Hugh Cabot of thet medical school. "He is a great sur- geon, more than that, a great organ- izer who has been able to effect an organization whith deals with an immense number of people, without loss of personal contact."t Although the lecture is primarily' for students of the medical school, all others who desire to attend will be admitted. It is thought that there will be a great many outsiders to hear the distinguished speaker.
