T tIs Conducted Word was received at the Michigan- ensian offices Saturday afternoon toI the effect that should the present plans for the 1925 Michigan year book, be carried into effect that publication' would in all probability be acclaimed not only the year's best annual,t but would have done more toward open- ing new channels in the field of Col- lege Annual production than any other book of the past ten years. This information has caused the staff to make inquiry as to whether the printers' and cover manufactur- cr's contracts which- were closed on Wednesday of last week, could be re- voked and an extension nade until the first of the week. It is felt that should this opportuni- ty be granted, some thousand or moreI students who neglected to subscribe, feeling that the announcements made by the staff to the effect that "The 1925 'Etisian Would Be Different" am- mounted to nothing more than sales, talk, would avail themselves of an Earthquake Is Felt By Persons Here, Recorded A t Observatory Earth tremors of considerable mag- nitude were distinctly felt in Ann Ar- bor last night, as reported by a num- her of persons, and a very definite shock was recorded by the seismo- 9raph of the University observatory. The time of the greatest intensity was approximately 9:21 o'clock, al- though indications continued for some time thereafter. The main vibrations extended over a period of about one minute and a half. "Severe vibrations were recorded on both east and west and north and south components," declared Prof. W. J. Hussey, director of the Observatory, so it is impossible to tell the direc- tion of the quake. Vibrations of great- er intensity have been recorded here, but it is rare that a quake is felt in Ann Arbor by persons without instru- ments." Professor Hussey's first notification of the shock came when he was called on the phone by persons who had felt the shock, and asked it an earthquake had been recorded by the seismograph. Upon examination, he found the pen{ had been thrown clear off the sheet removed from the seismograph this evening. Only three earthquakes of any vio- lence have occurred in this section of the country in the past 300 years, and this region being practically im- mune to quakes, last night's tremor is considered quite unusual. Several times in the past, slight quakes have been felt widely throughout the mid- die west. The most serious earthquake in re- cent years accurred in Charleston, S. C., in 1888. At this time many houses were shaken down and considerable other damage was done. Earlier in 1811 severe shocks were felt in the Mississippi valley, the greatest damage being at New Madrid. In 1663 the Jesuit Missionaries reported a severe earthquake in Canada, but as the country was not thickly settled the damage was slight. It is generally believed that earth- quakes are due to the earth's crust adjusting itself to the warmer inner regions. Certain parts of the world have always been more susceptible to quakes than others, and only two i by the shock.
