Architects' May Party Tckets
I Will Be Distributed This Week

EVERETT, '26, AND DAVIES,
CHOSEN BY FACULTY
COMMITTEE

'27,

Applications to the Architects' May
party have been returned, and tickets
will be given out to accepted appli-
cants Thursday and Friday afternoon,
April 30 and May 1 at the Union, it
was announced last night. A limited
number of tickets still remain for the
party, however, and these will be sold
at the same time, to the first comers.
The May party, which will'be held
May 8, will follow the now almost
traditional plan of the Architects'
parties in having original decorations
designed by the students themselves.
This year's design is in the Oriental
spirit, and costumes are expected to
follow out the same idea, although
this is not obligatory. Some special
costume must be worn, however. f

The competition for posters for the
party which has been conducted by
the committee in charge had not been
decided at a late hour last night, but
lte best designs submitted will be on
display in Grahams' window after the
judges' decision.
Wrights' colored orchestra, of Co-
lumbus, Ohio, which will furnish
music for the affair, has a consider-
able reputation south of the Mason
and Dixon line, both for the quality
of their straight music and the en-
tertainment they furnish on the side.
This fact, together with the fact that
the grand march, long the bane of
campus parties, has been abolished,
should result in a party even better
than last year's ball.

Roy Hoyer Will Come here May 10

Walker G. Everett, '26, and Valen-
tine L. Davies, '27, are the authors
of the book which has been selected
by the faculty committee for the 1926
Union Opera. These two men are
collaborating on the final book, atj
the suggestion of the committee inJ
charge.
No announcement as to the type of
production has been made, but it is
expected that an unusually elaborate.
opera will be presented, as the chor-
uses are to be enlarged and every
effort is being made to enlist the
best material on the campus in order
to make the production as represen-
tative as possible on its eastern trip.
Everett is a member of the staff of
the Gargoyle, and was the designer
of the poster used for "Tickled to
Death." He was in the chorus of the
1924 Mimes production. Davies was
on the Opera publicity committee,
and is on the Music and Drama staff
of The Daily.
Announcement was also made by E.
Mortimer' Shuter, director of Mimes
dramatics, that due to the fact that
"Stepping Stones" will conclude itsj
Chicago run earlier than was expect-
ed, Roy Hoyer, leading man with
Fred Stone in that production, will
be in Ann Arbor for three weeks be-
ginning May 10, to coach the dancers
for the next Opera. Tryouts will be
held before that time in order to
eliminate those who are considered
incapable of doing this type of work,
and to permiit Mr. Hoyer to start I
training the men in the new routines
All the chorus numbers will consist
at once.
of entirely new routines which have
been 'devised by Iloyer. The men's
choru§ will be increased to 24 men,
which will permit much more effec-
tive numbers, according to Mr. Shu-
ter.
All men who wish to tryout for
next year's Opera are urged to do so
as soon as possible, as more than 200
men reported for the first day of try-
outs and Mr. Shuter desires that any
others who wish to be given a trial
to see himt in order that the actualj
trials may begin as shortly as possi-f
ble. He will be in his office in the
Mimes theater every day this week
from 10:30 o'clocl in the morning
until 9 o'clock at night to interview
candidates.'

fessor of international law in Har-
vard university, will deliver a public
address on "The Dad League of
Nations" at 8 o'clock tomorrow night

Dr. Hudson will arrive in Ann Ar-
bor tomorrow afternoon, coming here

dressed the convention of the Amer-
ican Society of International Law.
He will be entertained by members
of the law faculty at dinner, and will
return to Cambridge immediately af-
ter his lecture.
At the conclusion of hWs speech, Dr.
Hudson will remain to answer all
questions put to him by his audience,
and those having questions are es-
pecially requested to remain for the
discussion.
Dr. Hudson's thorough training in
international law, supplemented by
his experience, has given him an im-
pressive command of his subject. His
services in the State Department, on
the American Peace Commission at
Versailles in 1919, and on the Sec-
retariat of the League of Nations at
Geneva are well known. He has also

American embassy at Paris.
Dr. Hudson is a native of Missouri
and it was during his years as pro-
fesor of law in the University of
Missouri from 1910 to 1919 that he
first came into prominence. Follow-
ing his return from Europe he was
invited to join the faculty of the Har-
vard Law School where he has been
Bemis professor for the past two
years.
NATIONAL FORST WEEK
WILL BE BSERVEDHFRE
In accordance with the annual cus-
tom Ann Arbor will observe the na-
tional forest week activities next
week. The National Forest week this
year will differ in that protection,
production, and efficient use of the
forests will be emphasized instead of
just pr'otection of1 the forests as in
previous years. In his Forest Week
Proclamation President Calvin Cool-
idge said:
"For several years the nation has
observed Forest Protection Week. It
is fitting that this observance be en-
larged upon. We have too freely
spent the rich and magnificent gift
that nature has bestowed on us. In
hour eagerness touse that gift we
have stripped our forests; we have
permitted fires to lay waste and de-
your them; we have all too often des-
troyed the young growth and the seed
from which new forests might spring.
And though we already feel the first
grip of timber shortage, we have
barely begun to save and restore."
In observance of National Forest

Week several of the Ann Arbor clubs
plan to hold their meetings on the
Saginaw Forest plantation where the
Faculty of the Forestry department
will explain how timber is grown and
how fast it grows.

(By Special Correspondent and A. P)
Des Moines, Iowa, April 25.-In
.<......: taking two firsts and a second in the
three relays it entered, Michigan's
three teams turned in the best marks
in their careers. In the two-mile re-
lay which Michigan won by a yard,
Reinke ran his half mile in 1:54 3-10
minutes, the best mark he has ever
made for the distance, while Frey-
burg also ran his pest race in 1:55.
The mile and half mile teams made
better times than Michigan teams
have done in a number of years. The
Michigan teams will take home four
large trophys, their share of the
spoils.
An army of nearly 2,600 athletes
from 191 universities, colleges, and
high schools participated in the rec-

by the board in the two days of com-
petition.
The new records established today
were the discus, shot put, two-mile

HUBBARD WINS DASH
Northrop Achieves Victory In Javelin
Throw by Hurling Spear More
Than 193 Feet
Philadelphia, April 25.-(By A. P.)-
International competition, which saw
the defeat of both Lord David Burgh
ley of Cambridge university and A.,.E.
Porritt of Oxford, was over shadowed
in the final event of the University of
Pennsylvania relay carnival today by
the attainment of a mighty team of
relay stars from Georgetown uni-
versity.
The Washingtonians who yesterday
romped away with the world's records
for the mile medley, today accomplish-
ed a greater feat eclipsing the two-
mile record made by Boston college
last year by 5 2-5 seconds. Swine-
burn, Holden, Sullivan, and Marsters
ran the distance in 7 minutes 42 sec-
onds.
Lord Burghley, who defeated a
capable field of American performers
in the 400-metre hurdles, proved un-
able to cope with American speed at
a shorter distance and over the high
barriers. Woods, of Butler ,and Scat-
tergood, of Princeton, defeated him in
the first heat ofthe 120-yard hurdles.
For a time it was Porritt's day. The
British invader, a sprinter from New
Zealand, delighted the crowd of more
than 30,000 with. his victory in the
second half of the 100 yard dash.
The field for the finals included
Porritt, MacCready of Princeton,
Hubbard of Michigan, Duello, of the
Army, Cummins of Virginia, Schoon-
maker, of New York university and
Irwin, of Ohio State.
Hubbard proved the snag for the
New Zealander. The Michigan man
was off like a flash and half way
down the stretch l., by kve yards,
but Porritt was gaining speed' an
rushed to the tape only two yards be-
hind. It was a battle that brought
the great assemblage to its feet,
cheering, and both men received ova-
tions. Schoonmaker, of New York
university, took third place. But
Hubbard had to run the distance in
9 4-5 seconds, a fifth of a second
slower than the world's record to win
from, the British flash. - Porritt is
credited with less than 10 seconds in
the recent Oxford Cambridge meet in
England.
Boston college won the four mile
relay, Michigan placing third in a
slow race.
Philip Northrup, star sophomore
pole vaulter and javelin thrower of
the Michigan track team, won the
javelin event with a heave of 193 feet
11 3-8 inches. This distance is three
I feet further than the qualifying dis-
tance in the Olympic trials last June
at Harvard. Bench, of Yale, placed
second with a distance of 186 feet
4 1-4 inches. Runtree, of Vanderbilt,
won a third place with 182 feet 1-2
inches, while Frieda, of the Univer-
sity of Chicago track team, threw the
javelin 176 feet 9 inches for fourth
place.
Boston garnered five points in the
four mile relay event, covering the
distance in 15:5 1-5 miinutes. Penn
State finished second, ahead of the
University of Michigan team.
