All ballots will be filed -n the offices of the council at the Un- ion, where recounts can be made if necessary. FISHBEIN TO ADDESS MEDCLGROUP TODAY; "The Art of Preparing Medical Papers" is the subject of a lecture to be given by Dr. Morris Fishbein, edi- tor of the journal of the American Medical association, at 10 o'clock this morning in the west amphitheater of the Medical building. The speech,' which is being held under the aus- pices of Alpha Omega Alpha, national honorary medical fraternity, is the first of the year for the entire medical faculty and students. Dr. Fishbein is also. the editor of eHygeia and has gained a reputation for himself through his numerous books and magazine articles on medi- cal subjects. His most recent work is "Medlical Follies." Both as an un- dergraduate and graduate he studied at the Rush Medical school of the University of Chicago. Dr. Fishbein also addressed mem- bers of the University Press club last; night at the Union on "The Doctor Diagnoses the Newspaper."

MITCHELL TRIAL9 Air Officer May Demand Appearance In Court Of Accuser, Meaning Either Coolidge Or Davis RECESS UNTIL MONDAY (By Associated Press) WASHINGTON, Oct. 30.---The brief! but lively session held today by the Union Reception Committee Will Aid All Alumni iM embers of the .reception committee of the Union, headed by Karl Craw- ford, '27, will be at the Union and at the Michigan Central railroad depot until game time today for the purpose of :-sssting visiting alumni and others in every way possible. Alumni or parents who have not yet obtained rooms will be directed by the students to the Union, where the rooming house list will be available at the booth in the main lobby. Scores of students have obtained rooms for parents and friends through the list compiled at the Union, but a few ad- dIresses were still on the list last night. It is probable that more room addresses will be telephonied to the IUnion this morning, the committee believes, in which case they will be immediately added to the present list. ALFEDNOYES TO1 English Poet Will (ive Third Number O Oratorical Association Lecture Course WVORKS POPULAR IN U,S. CLUB ATBANQUETI HEADS OF AMERICAN MEDICAL JOURNAL AND TOLEDO BLADE SPEAK SUNDERLAND TALKS Says Efficiency of British Judicial System Is Due to Non-Partisain Control of Court Dr. Morris Fishbein, editor of the Journal of the American Medical as- sociation, and Grove Patterson, editor; of the Toledo Blade, delivered the two main addresses yesterday evening at the annual banquet of the University Press club which opened its three-day convention here Thursday. Scientific medicine, said Dr. Fish- bein, who gave the principal address of the program, feels that its future depends upon the co-operation of the press in a plan of education of the public. In an earlier part of his speech he pointed out the shortcom- ings and blunders of newspapers in treating medical subjects. In the second address of the pro- gram Grove Patterson presented the ideas of the "New Aristocracy" as the fifth state evolving from Burke's "Fourth State." This new group which would consist of "all those whose care, would interpret its superiority,I not in arrogance and pride, but in a responsibility to humanity." The opening address on the morn- ing program was given by Prof. Ed- son R. Sunderland of the Law school, on conclusions -drawn from a six months investigation of the English court procedure. The efficiency of the British judicial system, he said, is due to the non-partisan control of the court instead of a partisan con- trol by the lawyers. University Deans Seek Stealer Of Tailor's Dummy Some one, a jovial person no doubt, drunk with the joy of victory, of course, took, in a moment of ecstasy following the game at Urbana last week, a tailor's dummy that had been used for decorative purposes in one of the fraternity houses. A letter, received by Joseph A. Bursley, Dean of Students, from the assistant dean of men at Illinois, claims the missing dummy to be valued at $50. The same letter went on to say that the owner of said dummy would be very grateful if the stolen article could be located. One or several stu- dents here are under suspicion for having carried the dummy back home. CUT IN TAX RATES ";leijian Favors lReduction in Rates On Low Incomes Rather Than Entire Exemption ADAMS ALSO TESTIFIES (By Associated Press) WASHINGTON, Oct. 30.-The House ways and means committee, was ad-l vised today by Prof. Edwin R. A. Seligman, economist of Columbia uni- versity to retain the inheritance tax at reduced rates, and to cut the incomej rates on low incomes rather than ex- empt the taxpayers entirely. Questioned by Democratic commit- tee members, Mr. Seligman and Prof. Bomas S. Adams of Yale, who testified. yesterday and was recalled today, both opposed proposals to extend the payment of the national debt from 25 to 62 years with a view to making greater reduction in taxes now Mr. Adams declared it was "inconceivable that the European debtor nations will MICHIGAN TEAM OPPOSES NAVY ELEVEN TODAY IN IMPORTANT INTERSECTIONAL GRID CONTEST VISITORS BRING ONE OF STRONGEST SQUADS EVER DEVELOPED AT ANNAPOLIS In one of the most important intersectional football games of the 1925 grid season, Michigan will meet the United States Naval Academy eleven before a record crowd of 47,000 persons at 3 o'clock this afternoon on Ferry field. The Navy brings to Ann Arbor one of the strongest teams developed at Annapolis in recent years. The Midshipment have not met defeat this year, and are entertaining high hopes of keeping their slate clean this afternoon. In the opening game of the season the Navy teaii defeated William-Mary college, 25-0, and ran up a score of 19-0 over Marquette the following week.

Coach Kipke. who scouted the Annapolis aggregation last week, returnd with reports of a powerful Navy tem and the Mich- gan coaches have made a strong effort to perfect a defense for the Navy at- tack. If the field is in a dry condition, both teams will undoubtedly resort to a passing game. Michigan did not have an opportunity to unleash its forward pass attack at Urbana last week, and will unquestionably use the forward pass to effect a score on the Navy. Michigan will have a slight- weight advantage, but will face one of the fastest set of backfield men in the East. Shapley will be one of the most closely watched players on the field. The Navy fullback has proven a sen- rational runner and will prove a men- ace to the Maize and Blue team at all times. Lentz, captain of the Ann- apolis team, is a powerful guard, and has earned a reputation in the pre- vious games on the Navy schedule. Coach Yost will use the same team that faced Illinois last week. Tom Edwards is still : suffering with an arm injury, and will not be in condi- tion to play until the Northwestern game. Dewey, who substituted at guard last week, will start again to- day. Dewey played a brilliant game of football against Illinois, and Is counted on to materially strengthen the line with his 197 pounds of weight. The probable lineup for today's game is: Michigan Navy Oosterbaan.....L.E........ Bernet Babcock .......L.T.......Wickhorst Lovette ........L.G........... Lentz Brown ........C...........
