BURTON'S IDEALISM TOLD BY FROST IN CONVOCATION TA IPESCRIBES LATE PRESIDENT AS GREAT TEACHER AND ADMNISTRATORj HAD GREAT PLANS Urged Revision of Examination System To Benefit Students," Frost Says Because he was a friend of Presi- dent Burton, arid because they were both friends of the University, Robert Frost spoke last night in Hill auditor- iuum at the Marion Leroy Burton Me- morial convocation. And because Mr. Frost was a friend of President Bur- ton, his address last night was notS so much 9 formal commemmorationl as it was an intimate, personal rec- ollection., "Let it be as if we sat down to- gether to exchange recollections of a friend in words like 'Remember how tall he was," said Mr. Frost, and then made it like that. He spoke of Mr. Burton's ability as, an administrator, of the boyishi, laugh- ing way in which he went at obsta- cles and overcame them; and of the matter-of-fact way in which he dis- missed doubts and queries. "Ile ac- cepted it as a task to go ahead with, rather than as a question." Mr. Frost told of a conversation he had had with the President which had changed his idea of him. "I had! always thought of him as an admin-j istrator," he said, "but I found out that administration was never enough to satisfy the idealism of his nature. He brushed it aside in his mind for something beyond, which, as I camel to see, was no less than the advance- Year's Ten Accomplishments Are Told In Council Report Reviewing the definite accomplish- ments of the last two semesters, a re- port of the Student council for the year 1924-25 was submitted to the new council at the weekly meeting last week in the Union. in this report the ten. major acts of the council since its j inauguration in the spring of 1924,1 are explained. Foremost among these accomplish- ments, the report says, was the re- alization of student authority in dis- cipline matters. Under the new judi- cial power a student may have pre- liminary trial by fellow students be- fore final decision is given in dis- cipline cases which come under the jurisdiction of the University Dis- cipline committee and the Senate Committee on Student Affairs. miTe old sophomore vigilance com- cite was abolishd when the coun- cil was reorganized two years ago. Hazing was made an offense subject 'o expulsion at that time. The solu- lution this year has been found in throwing the responsibility on the freshman class itself. A freshman discipline committee composed of members appointed by the class presi- dent subject to the approval of the council, now does the work. Class dues are now handled through the office of the Dean of Students. An account will be kept there by each class treasurer so that income and expense may be audited. The new Student council constitu- tion was completed and one thousand copies printed. These are kept in the council office and in the office of the Dean of Students. The council was responsible for the new cheer-leader system, whereby the major sport captains will serve on the squad during other sport seasons. The office of cheer-leader was also placed on the all-campus election bal- lot. The retiring council was the body which took the initiative in starting a Burton Memorial movement. As soon3 as all the classes have agreed to turn over their memorial funds each year to a common fund which will be used for the Burton MemorialeChimes. The Student council petitioned the Board of Regents to name the new literary building after President James Burrill Angell. The peition was accepted. In the past the block "M" at Ferry field has required 2,200 students. , As the freshmen class varies slightly in number each year sophomores have been seated in the section. The coun- cil, believing that the block "M" should should be a freshmen proposi- (Continued on Page Three) BOARD OF RESENTS NAME I M SMITH, CHICAGO; REIGISTRARi WILL USE PART OF ENTRANCE FEES IN SUPPORT OF VARSITY BAND ENDOW NEW AWARD Education School Requirements Raised; Make Faculty Appointments Are u.S. WINS IN ELK RELIGION SCHOOL HILLS OIL SUITS, NAMESEXECUTIVES Ira M. Smith, assistant examiner of the University of Chicago, was ap- pointed to succeed the late Arthur G. Hall registrar, and the Board in Con- trol of Athletics was granted permis- sion to use fifty cents, or any part of that amount, from the fee received from the registration'for the athletic books for the maintenance and tra- veling expenses of the University band at the May meeting of the Board of Regents last night. Entrance requirements for the School of Education were raised, sev- eral gifts were received, leaves of ab- sence were granted to several mem- bers of the faculty, a number of ap- pointments were made, and action was taken on several scholarshipsI and endowment funds. The Regents voted to reconsider their former ac- tion on the proposed new stadium. Ira M. Smith was born at Bloom- ington, Ind., and attended the Uni- versity of Indiana, receiving a degree orf bachelor of laws from that insti-I tution in 1909. In the same year he was admitted to the bar for state and federal practice. He accepted a posi- tion as assistant registrar of the Uni- versity of Illinois in 1909, continuing! there until 1920. From 1915 to 1920 le acted'in the capacity of University examiner. In 1920 he was called to the Uni- versity of Chicago, where he became assistant examiner in charge of ad- missions. The fee for dental students who are residents of the state was raised from $180 to $200 per annum, and the fee; for extension undergraduate courses was changed from $4 to $5 per credit hour. The Regents also raised the entrance requirements for the School of Education, making it necessary for! students entering the school to have junior standing with 25 per cent moret honor points than hours. A part of the Henry Russell en- downment fund, it" was decided, will provide for an annual lecture, to be Amundsen Safe Is Belief Of Aero Society Oslo, Norway, May 28.-(By A. P.) --The Norwegian aeronautic associa- tion takes the view that there is no reason for supposing the Amundsen north pole expedition has met dis- aster. The association points out that Captain Amundsen's instructions to the other members of the expedition aboard the vessels Farm and Hobby were that the polar flight might last a fortnight. He is also said to have asked the patrol of the ice edge in the event he did not return within a fort- night. To make this patrol as efficient as possible the association has asked the ministry of defense to place the Farm, which is a naval transport, at the association's disposal for a con- siderably longer period than was originally intended and, further, to orderatwo naval airplanes to assist in the patrol. 40 STUDENTS WILL i -) 'J. S. Wilson, Formerly Berkeley Mayor Will Be Chief Conference Lecturer' MEETING LASTS 10 DAYS Comprising the largest group from any college, more than 40 students of the University of Michigan will attend the Lake Geneva conference for aten day period from June 12-22. The camp is located on Lake Gen- eva 80 miles north of Chicago. The land which is owned by the Associa- tion college of Chicago, is fitted with athletic equipment. Within the last year an 18 hole golf course has been established. The purpose of the conference is to discuss major problems of the day. In addition, editorial, faculty, and foreign student discussion are held throughout the camp period. Hon. J. Stitt Wilson, former mayor of Berkeley, California, will be one of the principal lecturers at Geneva. Mr. Wilson is a )vell known college speak- er and a student of the British Labor movement. Sometime during camp an inspection trip will be taken through the Yerkes observatory which is near the conference site.tAfter adjourn- ;ment of the convention an observa- tion tour of Chicago will be made by the delegates.

Meyers, 'of WITTMAN, HUBBARD WILL MAKE LAST APPEARANCE ON FERRY FIELD FARRELL HOPEFUL Northrup Slated For Javelin Throw; Schwarze i Champion In Shot Put By W. H. Stoneman Two of the greatest rivals in the American track world will meet at 4 o'clock this afternoon on Ferry field when Michigan and Wisconsin plan a get-together. This afternoons meet promises to be one of the greatest dual affairs of the season and the search for victory will summon the best efforts of every man entered. Coach Steve Farrell will put a team into the field which can be expected to give Wisconsin the hardest competition it has had since the indoor Conference meet at' Evanston March 14. The indoor championships went to Michigan by less than three points and ever since that time Tom Jones and his Badg- ers have been looking for revenge. They will have their first opportunity this afternoon and the final chance will come at the outdoor Conference meet to be held at Columbus June 6. From all indications the score at thel end of today's meet ought to find the two teams less than 10 points apart. Some of the greatest track stars of the country will appear on the two teams. The Cardinal will be repre- sented by such men as Schwarze, who heaves the shot 49 feet 10 1-8 inches and throws the discus 146I feet 7 1-4/ inches. No one in theI country has approached his perform- ances in the former event this year and he will be favored to take first places in both of those events thist afternoon. Kubly, the WisconsinI two miler, has run the distance in 9 minutes, 42 seconds this season and ranks with the best. McGinnis and McGiveran are not World beaters in the hurdles but they rank with the3 best. Kennedy of Wisconsin is one of the leading quarter milers in the section and Vallely is a'leading miler. Les Wittman and DeHart Hubbard, two of the greatest sprinters in theI country, will make their final per- formances on Ferry field this after- noon. Both bave been consistent first place winners in the country's big- gest track carnivals ever since they first came to Michigan and the rec- ord books will bear witness to their calibre long after their graduation from school. Charlie Reinke, the greatest half miler running today, will be another to run his final race on Ferry Field. Another man who promises to give the Badgers a shock this afternoon is Phil Northrup, the greatest sophomore athlete of the season. Northrup throws the Javelin over 200 feet, more than 20 feet far- ther than anyone else in the mid- dIe-West. He pole vaults 12 feet 6 inches, high enough to win first place in most meets. He ordinarily finishes up an afternoon by broad jumping around 23 feet, 6 inches. The 100 yard dash, the first event Ion the program, will be a race be- tween Hubbard, Wittman, and M Andrews of Wisconsin, the two Mich- By Carl E. Ohlniacher In its first extra inning game of the season, the Varsity baseball team won the second game of the Aeries from the Japanese All Stars by a score of 4-3 in 13 innings yesterday j fternoon at Ferry field. After the losers h-ad been retired byA a double play and a strikeout in their half of the last frame, the Wolverines scored the winning run after two men were out. Haggerty opened the inning by flying out to Futakami and Ryrholm popped to Kirihara. Cole- man singled through first base and ran to second as the fourth ball was called on Dillman. Wilson drove a sharp single to right and Coleman, limping from the effects of his in- jured leg, ran across the plate with the winning run, Takasu's throw to the plate being late and wide. Michigan was held to two hits over the first five innings, but opened up in the sixth and tied the score. Froemke beat out a bunt that caught Futakami asleep. Haggerty was safe and Froemke went to second when Watanabe dropped K o s ha i m o to's throw. Ryrholm then drove the ball almost to the tennis courts in right center, but was held to three bases as the gardeners were playing deep. The first two runners scored. Cole- man's best effort was a pop to Kir- hara, and Dillman was robbed of a Texas leaguer when Otsumi ran into short right field and made a one- handed catch of his hit. Wilson came through with a hit through thi'd base bringing Ryrholm in with the tying run. There was no more scoring un- til the thirteenth, when Wilson cinched his hero role by hitting safe- ly to bring in Coleman with the win- ning tally. Tom Fisher pitched the first five innings for the Wolverine nine and held his opponents to three hits, all of which were bunched in the fourth inning to score their runs. Cherry batted for Fisher in the fifth. Hovey replaced him and pitched good ball until taken out for another pinch hitter in the twelfth inning. Ruetz, appearing for the first time this sea- son, finished the game and gets cred- it for the victory. The fast play of the Wolverine defense saved the pitchers on several occasions. Three double plays came in to lighten the hurlers' burdens. In the ninth frame, Hovey was in a bad hole when the bases were filled by two hits and a hit batsman, but a foul fly to Hag- gerty, Giles' catch on Mori's fly, and Davis' pretty play in smothering Watanabe's high foul left the three Wilson's With Single Brings in Coleman Winning Run; Ryrholm Drives to Courts LOSERS SCORE ONLY IN FOURTH INNING; WOLVERINES OPEN IN SIXTH DEFENSE IS FAST he described th e change in terms or teachers. "He built the future on teachers who knew how to get more out of a etudent by throwing an atmosphere of expectation around him than by putting the screws on him," said Mr. I Frost. "They asked without asking.1 How? Not quizzingly, to test anyone. First, they demand that th-e student make his own trouble and not wait for teachers to make it for him. See- 9nd they insist on turning the teach- I er's claim on the student into the l student's claim on the teacher,-ab- .solutely the reverse of what it has been." And for examinations Mr. Burton also wanted a substitute, which Mr. Frost called 'publication.' "That's the trouble with the honors courses that! are being started everywhere," said, Mr. Frost. "They turn a student loose,j and instead of giving them examina- tions, they give them 'comprehen- s ves.' Mr. Burton's teachers would aiave insisted that the students 'pub- lish themselves' to the teachers. They, could come and talk, or they could publish themselves in the campus publications or they could write somewhere else. And for the exam-' luation they could come and talk, or Write anything they thought appro- priate to the course." Mr. Burton was not a President set apart from his teachers by the big- ness of the State University, said Mr. Frost. It was his instinct to keep near teaching and the ideals of teach- ing for his own happiness. "President Burton's glans were un- l ier Senator Atlee Pomerene summe up as follows: First, the leases and contract should be cancelled because it ha been shown that there was a con spiracy between Albert B.
