P.)- Ohio State in a Big Ten basketball game here tonight obtained ample re- venge for its earlier defeat by Michi- gan, holding the Wolverines to three baskets and the short end of a 32 to 13 score. Miner and Cunningham starred for the Ohioans and the of- fence with seven and five baskets re- spectively. The Ohio guarding wasi the best of the season, Michigan get-4 ting only two baskets in the first half' and but one in the second. Michigan never gave up trying but its efforts were futile, Ohio taking the lead at the start and never being seriously threatened. Haggerty, Michigan cap- tain, was held to one lone basket.

Cooley of the Colleges of Engineering and Architecture and past president of the American Engineer- ing Council expressed his opinion with regard to the reforestation problem. Portions of the letter which appear- ed in the February issue of the Ameri- can Forest and Forest Life magazine follows: "It has been one of my ambitions to do something worth while in refores- tation. I consider it the most vital factor in the future welfare of the country. Looking into the future no further than 75 to 100 years, I can see conditions arising, if our cut-over lands remain barren, which will makeM it very difficult, if not impossible, to live in this north temperate zone of ours-certainly not in the way we are now living. "We are rushing at breakneck speed into a cul-de-sac, which considering our supposed superior intelligence, is1 the greatest of all human tragedies. I am conscious this sounds dramatic. But I say to you that we of our day are living examples of the five foolish virgins. What shall we answer when called to account for our stewardship -not at the judgment day, but no further than the day of our children's children?" i i FOSOICK DISCUSSES INTERNATIONAL1AN CITES EXAMPLES OF LEAGUE'S' IIIMANITAJIAN WORK IN PEACE TIME REEVES PRESIDES A9NNUAL MEETING OF HIGHWAY MEN EVERY STATE IN MIDDLE WEST REPRESENTED AT OPENING SESSION COOLEY SPEAKS Addresses by Rogers, Earle, )onaghey, Betts and Riggs Feature Conference i I I i Says Primary Force of League Been in Organization of In- ternational Pubile Opinion Has "Diplomatic technique in the future will consist of bringing nations to- gether in conference around a table," declared Raymond Blaine' Fosdick, eminent authority on international re- lations, in a speech delivered in Na- tural Science auditorium last night. Prof. Jesse S. Reeves, head of the po- litical science department, introduced the speaker. In tracing the advances of society during the past 100 years, Mr. Fos- dick asserted that these developments are directly responsible for the status of present international relations. The affairs of the world are linked to- gether, stated the speaker, and this interdependence warrants a medium such as a council of nations where ex- pression may be given, by way of con- ference, to problems affecting the en- tire universe.

Every state of the middle west was represented at the opening registration of the eleventh annual conference onI highway engineering, here yesterday._ Between 200 and 300 highway engin- eers and road commissioners attendedj the opening sessions of the assembly, sponsored by the engineering college in co-operation with the Michigan State Highway department and the1 Michigan Association of Highway Coin- niissioners and Engineers. Those in I charge expect that at least 200 more' highway men will arrive before the conference adjourns Thursday morn- ing. Mortimer E. Cooley, dean of the en- gineering college, welcomed the vis- itors to the University in an addressE given at a smoker last night in the' Union. He spoke for President Marion L. Burton, 'who due to illness, could not as in past conferences, greet the visiting engineers at the opening ses- sion. Dean Cooley stressed the mutue- al benefits arising from association with the University of the professional' groups in the state. Referring to one of the questions facing the adminis- trators of state highways, he indicated the importance of immediate consider- eration of the problem of financing, brought about by the immense in- crease in the scale of construction dur-i ing recent years. lion. Frank F. Rogers, State High- way Commissioner of Michigan, speak- ing immediately after Dean Cooley, indicated that the' question of highway financing would be umet by the new gasr and weight- taxes. Ile revealed that the situation is rapidly approaching the point where the user of the high- ways .must cointribute to the, cost of construction and ,nmaintenance of statef highuways. He continued with a sum- marized report of the work of the highway department during the past three years. The commissioner said that since the floating of the largef bond issue in 1921, the state has. con- structed a total of 3398 miles of im- proved roads of all types, as well as 244 bridge structures over 30 feet in length. During the 1924 season, he! pointed out, more concrete pavements were laid than in any previous year, and that at present there is a paved thoroughfare from Detroit to Clii- cago without a significant break. Hailed as "The Father of Good Roads in Michigan" by his colleagues, Horation S. Earle of Detroit, former State Highway Commissioner of Mich-I igan, outlined convincingly the value of good roads to the citizens of the state. During the afternoon session, J. T. Donoghey, State Highway Engineer, Wisconsin Highway department, spoke on "Wisconsin Methods of Mainten- ance of Gravel Roads." F. IA. Betts, Superintendent, Board of County Road I Commissioners, Menominee County, discussed "Bituminous Surface Treat-' ments of Gravel Roads in Menominee County, Michigan." Ziet Retires After Serving Four Decades { Thirty-seven years of uninterrupted service is the record of Professor Alexander Ziwet, of the mathematics department, whose resignation was accepted at the last meeting of the Board of Regents. Professor Ziwet plans to retire at the end of the cur- rent school year, and at that time he will write finis to his activities which started in 1888, when he first took up his duties as an instructor here. Born in 1853 at Breslau, Germany, he received his degree in civil en- gineering at the Karlsruhe Polytech- nikum in 1880, after which he was on the United States Lake Survey for two years. In 1882 he served with the United States Coast and Geodetic Sur- vey until 1887, then taking his posi- tion here. Professor Ziwet has been head of the mathematics department since 1904. He is well known throughout the country as the most versatile and gen- erally scholarly of American mathe- maticians. He is well versed in-more than eight modern languages and is well read in most fields of classical language and literature. Professor Ziwet is the writer of a book on "Theoretical Mechanics." He colla- borated with Peter Field to write an "Introduction to Analytical Mechan- ics" and with L. A. Hopkins he is the author on "Analytic Geometry and Principles of Algebra." Besides he has written several papers on me chanics. Dean A. H. Lloyd, of the graduate school, characterized Professor Ziwet yesterday as one of the "most helpful men that the university has had." HOME LIST BIGGER THANLAST YER'S' Hlours Credit Will Be Deducted For Atsence; Dean Will Interview, Delnquents REGISTER NOT FINISHED With the completion of the task of grade card distribution, the Registrar's office annouices that the warning, probation, and home list shows an in- crease over that of last semester, al- though the gain has not been definite- ly determined. In addition to this de- linquent list, 189 students have been sent attendance admonishments, 40 of this number receiving a deduction of one hour of credit for excessive ab- sence. Approximately 35 students on the delinquent scholarship list have also received a one hour reduction in credit for the same cause. The basis for reducing credit on the number of unexcused absences is as follows: from 20 to 29, one hour re- duction; from 30 to 104, one hour de- duction and verbal warning; from 13 LEGISLATURlE WILL BE ASKED F.OR S3i892,7OOFOR LANDS, EQUIPMENT, NEW BUILDINGS Bulletin According to a bulletin issued last night by attendant physi- cians, the condition of President Marion L. Burton was reported as favorable, though no change for the better had taken place. Up to a late hour no further change was reported. NO0 IMPROVEMENT IN 'BURTON'SLNS President's Condition Considered Worse Than at Any Other Time During Ulness SITUATION GRAVE Little indication of improvement has been shown in President Marion L.. Burton's condition since his relapse last Thursday, it was reported late yesterday. After spending an easier day on Sunday, the President passed; a restless night, and yesterday morn- ing found him. still in serious condi- tion. A bulletin issued yesterday by Dr. Burton's physicians stated: "As a result of the infarct, either in the right lung; which cannot be de- termined for some hours. "The present complication will bring an added strain on an already much-overworked heart. However, with characteristic reaction, Presi- dent Butron seems to meet the situa- tion in a remarkable manner, and continues to hold his own." Officials in' close touch with the 'President's home consider his condi- tion 'mre grave now than at any other time during his illness. The strain of recent complications is rapidly re- ducing his vitality despite his splen- did fight to overcome the disease. DD.R1AKER SPEAKS ON, NMORALE OF STUDENTS Dr. James C. Baker, pastor of the Trinity Methodist church in Urbana, Ili i-n ankP S idn niht u n APPROPRIATION WOULD PERMIT SALARY INCREASES FOR FACULTY TO LIFT MILL-TAX Badly Needed Museum and Architec- ture Building Will Be Con- structed With Fund Requests for an appropriation of more than three million dollars, to be used for new buildings and land, and for an increase in the annual main- tenance fund by the removal of the limit in the present mill-tax law will be laid shortly before the State legis- lature, it was learned yesterday. Al- though not official, it was understood that the bills authorizing these meas- ures are already prepared and in the hands of legislators. The appropriation of $3,192,700, if granted, would be used for the con- struction and equipment of a new Administration building, a new Mu- seum, a new Observatory building, and an Architecture building. The lifting of the mill-tax law would mean a substantial improvement ini the per- sonnel of the faculty, increased fa- cilities for maintaining the present mechanical equipment, and substan- tial increases in the salaries of the teaching staff, many of whom have been on the waiting list for salary raises for years. It is believed the University. will base its request for a lifting of the mill-tax law-the law through which the University has received the major portion of its operating income for 50 years-on the fact that increased ex- penses now make the present mill-tax income woefully inadequate. The enormous expansion in the number of students instructed has placed a strain on the present faculty which cannot longer be borne; University officials have long seen that there I must either be a substantial curtail- ment of enrollment, or else that there must be a drastic reduction in operat- ing expenses. It is pointed out that, were the latter measure necessary, educational standards would suffer greatly. A detailed description of the Uni- versity's requests has not ypt been made known, but it is believed that they will be placed before the. legisla- ture in the near future. j lioisspoe e unuay piu 4 "The Building of Student Morale" at the University service held under the , auspices of the Student Christian as- - sociation.
