Is Second Nmiaber of Anual
Choral nion Series t
John McCormack, the internation-
ally famous Irish tenor, will be heardc
in recital at 8 o'clock tonight in Hill
auditorium, as the second number in1
the 47ti annual Choral Union concertD
series. le will be assisted in this
program by Lauri Kennedy, violinist,
and Edwin Schneider, 'cellist. There
are a limited number of tickets still
available for tonight's concert, it wast
announced yesterday by Charles A.N
Sink, secretary of the University
School of Music.
Years of experience on the concerta
stage in many different countries have
given Mr. McCormack the opportunity
of becoming known to an unusually
large public, and have earned him the
alternate appellations "the world's
most popular musician" and "the
greatest living tenor." It is certain,
however, that his appearance' tonight
will mark one of the most important
musical events on this year's concert I
program.
The Program
The opening numbers tonight are by
Mr. Kennedy: "Adagio Sostenuto" by A
Pugnani, and "Allemande" by Senail-
lie.-
These are followed by Mr. CCor-
mack's first selections, which will be
Handel's "0, Sleep Why Dost Thou
Leave Me? and Lotti's " Sentirse il
petto acendre." f
The next two numbers are again by
Mr. Kennedy: Handel's "Sarabande"I
and a Rondo by Haydn. Mr. McCor-d
mack's next songs are in a somewhatc
lighter vein, being "To the Children"g
by Rachmaninoff, "Love's Secret" bye
Bantock, "Armida's Garden" by Perry,
and "Panis Angelicus" by Franck.-
More Popular Selections t
The intermission will be followeda
by three more selections by Mr. Mc-v
Cormack, again in a more popularo
manner, significant of his native coun-e
try. These are "Norah O'Neale" and f
"Open the Door Softly" both arrangedi
by Hughes, and the well-known favor-
ite "Kathleen Mavoureen" by Crouch.
There are, again two numbers byt
Mr. Kennedy: "Melodie" by Rach-
maninoff, and "Vito" a Spanish dance
by Popper.e
The concluding numbers on the pro-I
gram are to be sung by Mr. McCor-
mack. They are "Were You There?"
a negro spiritual arranged by Bur-a
leigh, "Through all the days" by Bar-c
bara Hope, and "Thanks Be to God"
by Stanley Dickson.r

Although no more tickets are avail-

and may be obtained by writing to
Edward Davidson, ticket manager,
Northwestern university, Evanston, or

for the Athletic association to sell
extra tickets with student seats. More
than 8,500 student coupons have al-
ready been turned in and there are
very few outstanding.
Tickets for the Minnesota game,
which will close the Big Ten season,

RENEW EFFORTS TO
FUD ITALY'SDEBT
talians and Americans 1eLt to Find
Satisfactory Arbitration
For Ward Fund
VOLTI ENDORSES POLICY
(By Associated Press)
WASHINGTON, Nov. 2.-The Italian
and American debt commission met
today for a renewal of the effort to
ind a satisfactory formula for the
funding of Italy's war debt to the
United States, but the first session
did not carry discussion beyond ex-
changes of felicitations and the be-
ginning of consideration of Italy's
economic and financial situation.
Members of the two commissions
grouped around a great mahogany
table at the Treasury, talked an hour
and a half about the situation in
which Italy finds herself, with a debt
of $2,138,542,873 to the American gov--
ernment and a stabilized government
iscal policy and a balance budget only
in the starting stage.
Secretary Mellon, speaking for the
Americans, assured the Italians that
this nation was fully acquainted with
Italy's problem and would ask only
"a just settlement that will insure
economic peace." Count Volti, the
Italian finance minister, replied that
he recognized that the American policy
of holding a nation's capacity to pay
as a basis for settlement was a proper
one, and added:
"In determining the capacity of a"
nation, the report of the Dawes con-
mission has shown two principal ele-
ments-first, the capacity to collect
in a country from its people the neces-
sary money, and second, the transfer
of the money collected in the natioil
currency to the creditor country in
the currency of the latter."
He submitted a series of 21 docu-1
ments having to do with these two1
elements.

Yost's Answer

Ring Lardner, who was a student
of the University in 1900 and 1901,
sent a telegram to Coach Fielding H.
Yost immediately after the Michigan-
Navy contest Saturday, the text of
the wire reading as follows:
"haven't you any respect for Uncle
Sam?"
Coach Yost immediately wired back
to Ring Lardner the following: "The
forward pass is a useful thing, when
Benny Friedman does the fling."
Many other telegrams of congratula-
tions were received by Coach Yost
from his personal friends and alumni.

Col. licks Declares Aftacks Have Not I
Weakened Order or Discipline
(By Associated Press)
WASHINGTON, Nov. 2.-The prose-.
cut ion rested its case today in the
court martial of Col. William Mitchell,
charged with conduct to the prejudice
of good order and military discipline,
and the defense called in wholesale
fashion for witnesses.
Col. Sherman Moreland, trial judge
advocate, announced that the prosecu-
tion rested its case after he had put
seven witnesses on the stand and evi-
dence had been taken to prove that
Colonel Mitchell had personally dis-
tributed through newspapermen in
San Antonio, Texas, statements charg-
ing the war and navy departments
with incompetency, criminal negli -
gence and most treasonable conduct
in administration of the national de-
fense.
The defense hailed as an important
victory today a statement by Lieut.
Col. George L. Hicks, chief witness
for the piosecution, under crossex-
amination that the charges against
the war and navy departments have
not to his knowledge caused disorder
or bad discipline among the Eighth
corps area troops.

The complete text of President Little's finaugural address and of
the introductory remarks made by Regent Beal will be found in the
Inaugural section, beginning with page nine of this issue.
- President Clarence Cook Little became the sixth President of the Uni-
versity yesterday morning when he was inducted into office in Hill audi-
torium. More than 5,000 students, members of the faculties, Regents, and
representatives from other institutions were present when the new executive
delivered his inaugural address.
The new President was accompanied to Hill auditorium by an academic
procession from Angell hall. The procession, led by the Varsity band,
was made up of members of the faculties of the University, 28 students
forming a guard of honor, members and ex-members of the Board of Re-
gents, delegates from 98 schools, colleges, and universities throughout the
country, and a squad of R. 0. T. C. students forming a color guard. Presi-
dent-Emeritus Harry Burns Hutchins marched in the President's section.
On reaching Hill auditorium the band took a position on the east side
of the terrace and played until all had entered the building. The trumpet-
ers paused at the front entrance and
blew a blast signifying that the Presi-
rI- dent was about to enter. At thi. sig-
nal the audience rose and remained
standing until the President reached
