He had started to become an actor
before he turned to music; he has a

His conversation is easy and repor-

referred the reporters to his man-

There had been still another story
that he had just moved from a flat to
a Fifth avenue palace. That, too, was
something to sigh over: it is not easy

Neophytes Suffer
Initiation tIc rrors1
Ten members of the junior engine-C
ering class scrubbed their way into
Triangles, honor junior engineering
sodiety, yesterday afternoon and were
officially initiated into the order at a
banquet last night in the Union. 1
The 4engineering arch was the scene
of the scrubbing; as it received its
semi-annual cleaning at the hands of
the neophytes, who thus demonstrated
their ability and worth of membership
in the ancient organization.
Those initiated into the society yes-
terday are I. W. and W. A. Kuenzel,
J. H. Lovette, K. McIntyre, T. King,
J. L. Buell, R. C. Baker, W. E. Ber-
ger, C. W: Stanley, and H. R. Ohl-
heiser.
While these events were transpir-
ing, the mighty organization of
Sphinx was unfolding its secrets to,
ten members of the junior literary
class who proved worthy by a long,
weary journey down the river Nile.i
Many trials and tribulations were un-
dergone in the duration of the peril-
ous journey, but at last the men
reached their destination.
The men who entered the portals
of the mighty organization, having
proved their right to do so by passing
through the initiation rites, are: P.

Palms, ferns, and plants have vir-

The chaperone's platform and orches-

glow, wll be used over the orchestras,
as a part of the special lighting sys-
tem which has been installed.
Dancing will be continuous from
10 o'clock until 2:30. Special fruit
punch, cakes and wafers will be
served from three different tables
throughout the evening.
Programs and favors were distrib-

noon. Extra programs may be ob-

until 10 o'clock at the price of one
dollar.
There will be no grand march this,
year owing to the fact that the dance
will not start until later than usual.
Tuxedos will be worn.

OXFORD LECTURER

HAS WIDE EXPERIENCE
Opening the program of special lec-
tures which are planned for the Sum-,
mer session, Lionel Curtis, a fellow
of All Souls' College, Oxford, and lec-
t-,rer on Colonial history in New Col-
lege, Oxford, wll speak in Ann Arbor
June 20. Mr. Curtis, who this sum-
mer will be the British representative
at the Political Science Conference

through the efforts of Prof. C. H. Van
Tyne of the history department.
Mr. Curtis, editor of the Round
Table magazine, was educated at New
College, Oxford, and served in the
South African war where he exer-
cised great influence in bringing to-
gether the better factions in South
African influence, making possible
the South African Union. He sug
gested some of the compromises and
political devices which allowed th
organization of the Union. Later, he
and other members of the Roun
Table planned the Government of In
dia Act of 1919; and as secretary in
the colonial office, he aided consider
ably in settling the arrangement wit]
the Irish Free State through which
the present relations between Eng
land and Ireland were established.
During Mr. Curtis many years i
r public life, he has held many posl
tons, having been town clerk of Jo
hannesburg, assistant colonial se
retary to the Transvaal for local gov
- ernment, member of the Transvaa
legislative council, secretary to th

Iowa, Illinois, and Detroit Schools
Are Favorites For Winner
.Of Two-Day Meet
Three hundred and sixty-five ath-
letes, representing 47 high schools of
five states will compete in the twenty-
fifth annual interscholastic track
meet to be held today and tomorrow
on Ferry field. The preliminary
trials will start at two o'clock thi
afternoon.
Washington High, of Cedar Rapids,
Iowa, winner of the meet held last
year, will again be represented by a
large aggregation of prep stars.
Northwestern High of Detroit, holder
of the indoor interscholastic champ-
ionship, will be represented by a
strong and well balanced team, and
is conceded to be one of the favorites.
Danville, who tied for premier hon-
ors in the Illinois state meet last
week, brings an exceedingly strong
team' of stars, and is expected to vie
strongly for first honors.
Both national and state high
school track records will be seriously
threatened by one of thelargest and
greatest fields to compete in the out-
door track classic. New track rec-
ords were scarce in the meet last
year on account of the inclement
weather. If the present weather con-
tinues to prevail for the two day
meet, the old marks seem doomed to
be broken, and new ones established.
Hamm, of Lonoke, Arkansas, one
of the greatest high school track
men in the country, will strive to
break his own national broad jump
- record of 24 feet 2 2-8 inches. The
- Arkansas star has been credited with
a distance of 25 feet 6 inches in three
e practice trials.
- The hundred yard dash draws one
d of the largest entries of the meet.

d Blocker, of Ann Arbor; Stamats,, of
- Cedar Rapids, Iowa; and Hamm, of

h promises to be one of the features of
h the meet.

who won the shot put event in the

the decorations, which will be most-
ly 'floral, will be supplied by the Van-

fountain on the platform, as well as
banks of flowers, and various palms
around the floor. The ceiling will be
decorated with large balloons.
The unusual lighting effects of the

the room. The affair will be strictly
informal, and will start at 9 and last
until 1 o'clock. The price of tickets

important role in intensifying the
meanings of the words and melodies."c
Although trained entirely in Amer-I

of some of the best instruction that
Europe has to offer. He is a native
of California.
