Badgers Take Early Lead The Badgers started off with a rush, getting to Jablonowski, Wolverine hurler, for a run in both the first and second innings. Michigan's first tally came in the third inning after two were out. Jablonowski drew a base on balls, Loos singled, and Wilson scored the pitcher with a double, Loos stopping at third. With a man on sec- ond and third Lange hit an easy grounder and the side was retired. Walter went to the mound for the Wolverines in the last half of the third inning and with the exception of the sixth and seventh innings held the Badgers helpless. Loos hits Home Run Michigan took the lead in the fifth inning when Loos hit a home run withI a man on base ahead -of him. Two more counters were added by the Wol- verines in the sixth.inning when Oos- terbaari singled and scored on Puckel- wartz' double. Pucklewartz scored on an error. Wisconsin broke into the scoring column again in the last half of the sixth inning and pushed their final run across the plate in the seventh frame. Captain Wilson concluded the Michigan scoring when he drove the ball into deep left for a home run in the seventh inning. Miller Out Of Gamie Don Miller, star right hander, who was expected to start against Wiscon- sin today was unable to do so on ac- count of illness and will also be un- available in tomorrow's contest with Minnesota as Coach Fisher has sent him home to Ann Arbor in the hope that he will have sufficiently recover- ed on Monda to see service either on the mound or n left field against Iowa1 on Ferry field. }. WHYTE ISCUSSE[S INDIAN SELF-RULE1 Believes England Is Not Cause Of Failure Of India To Gai Self-Governient OUTLINES DIFFICULTIES India's difficulties in achieving self-government are not due to the im- perialism of Great Britain, but to causes inherent in India itself, stated Sir Frederick Whyte, former president of the legislative assembly of India, yesterday in the last of a series of three lectures. The chief of these causes, according to Sir Frederick, are the Indian religious beliefs, the ac- quiesence to any political status, and the lack of a tradition of military ser- vice. India., the speaker asserted, has gained the greater profit of the two in the existing relationship between Great Britain and its eastern depend- ency. The imperial executives in India are still apparently as dicta- torial as ever, but they are encour- againg the development of self-gov- ernment. That the subject people are responding to that encouragement is shown by the recent action of the leg- islature in passing a tariff on import- ed steel, including that from England, and by the "Indianization" of num- erous institutions and industries. Although there is no actual provi- sion in the constitution of India mak- ing the ministry responsible to te legislature, they are in fact responsive Ito it, Sir Frederick continued, and the part of the assembly in the govern- ment is becoming increasingly impor-r tant. The first change from an unmitigait- ed aristocracy in the Indian govern- mnent came in 1909 under Lord Mor- ley, it was explained. In 1919, there was a reform in the constitution re- sulting in the present administrative system, characterized by an increased participation of the individual natives in civil and administrative service,, and a realization of the Indian gov- ernment as an integral part of the British empire. The Indian religious ideas, Sir Fred- crick stated, are such that the natives believe in working out their salvation by forsaking the earth, while the west- ern world's aim is to take an active part in the affairs of the world. This difference, he said, tends to create a lack of interest in western political methods on the part of the Indians. The natives have not cared greatly for the form of their government, and have been acquiescent under any kind of administration. In recent years, however, the awakening of a spirit of nationalism has started India on its progress toward self-government. 1 VARSITY BAND TO PLAY FOR TRACK MEET TODAY1 For the first time in the history of the organization, the Varsity band will play at the track meet, which will be held at 2:30 o'clock today at Ferry field.- The work of the band at the football games is traditional, but due to the efforts of Capt. Wilfred Wilson, di- rector of the band, and Gordon Pack- er,,d major, the organization has enlarged its scope of activities. Besides the usual concerts and ap- pearances at games, the band has giv- en a recital of classical music in Ann Arbor, concerts throughout the state, including a concert with the Glee club in the Coliseumin Detroit, and will now appear in uniform at the track meets.

Will Ask Funds For Vacation Camp Opportunity will be given on Tues- day to every student, faculty member and townsman to contribute to the] sixth annual drive for funds for thej University of Michigan Fresh Airj camp, which is conducted by the Stu- dent Christian association, according1 to John S. Denton, '27, chairman of the, drive committee. The committee will attempt -to raise $1,500 to cover! the expenses of giving vacations t1 more than 400 poor and needy boys in this part of the state. Ten day vaca- tion periods with all expenses paid, are given to groups of youngsters chosen from the community centers of Detroit, Ann Arbor, Flint and a few other cities. The policy of the camp, as outlined by Egbert Isbell, '26L, superintendent, I and which the leaders contract to car- I ry out provides for the teaching of the wonders and beauties of nature- the essentials of personal hygiene, first aid and swimming-how to co- operate and live with others, involv- ing fair play and sportsmanship-and withal to foster and develop a genuine1 reverence for the sacred things of life and a quest for the best that life has to offer. This drive has been made every year on the campus for the past five years; last year more than $1,200 was collect- ed on the day of the drive and more came in later through check subscrip- tion. Several campus organizations will be engaged in putting this drive across. Sphinx, Triangles, Druids and the "M" club will solicit subscriptions at various places on the campus on the day of the drive. Hover Predicts Good Choruses In Next Opera! Prospects for exceptional chorus work again in next year's Union opera are already apparent, according to Roy Hoyer, who is in Ann Arbor ar- ranging the musical comedy's dances for the sixth year. Despite the fact that Mr. Hoyer arrived only last Mon- day, coming direct from Albany, N. Y., where "Stepping Stones" finished its season on Sunday, he stated yester- day that he is highly pleased with theI rudimentary work of the chorus try- outs already displayed. "Even though the choruses of "Tam- bourine" were the most oustanding: they have ever been in the history of1 the opera, the talent shown so far this year in both the men's and women's I groups is fully equal to that display- I ed a year ago,' said Mr. Hoyer. "In ,' the short space of less than two weeks1 one group has already completed a< routine." It is quite possible that the women'sc pony chorus will be revived in next year's opera, Mr. Iloyer believes, in view of the unusually large number of tryouts this year and the likelihoodf that such a chorus can easily be I adapted to the book for next winter.1 Special dance numbers will also be c featured by at least a half dozen mem- hers of the choruses.c (Continued on Page Eight) Company Sues Robbery Trios Suit was begun in Circuit court yes- terday by the Royal Indemnity coi- p~any, insurance representatives of the bijou Theatrical Enterprise, Inc., fort the amount Mr. and Mrs. Alexander P. Strauss and Robert L. McHenry, Jr.,, are accused of taking frm the Ma- I jestic theater in the counterfeit hold-1 up and robbery on March 8th. Attorneys of the company filed a writ of garnishment claiming the sumI of $5,000 from the defendants. Upon their declaration that Sgt. Frank Keihl I of the police department had in his possession money belonging to the de-j fendants, Sergeant Keihl has been' summoned to the court and asked to! surrender the property. The police sergeant is reported to have accompanied Alexander Strauss to Detroit shortly after his arrest andi to have received a check for $2,500,( Strauss' share of the money. Sergeant Keihl claims that he is holding the money, pending the outcome of the criminal proceedings. FRESHMEN CAPTURE LEAD IN STRUGGLE SOPHOMORES WIN ONLY ONE OF THREE HEATS; ARE OUTNUMBERED WILL CLASH TODAY Horse And Eider Contest, Obstacle Race, And Rope Tying Event Will Decide Games TODAY'S PROGRAM 9:00-Sophomores meet at Water- man gymnasiunm; Fresh. 'men assemble at the Union. 9:30-Fresluen march to South Ferry field. 9:10--The second year class leaves for the contests. 10:00-The Spring games start. With the decision in the second and third tugs going to the freshmen, two, points toward the Spring games were awarded the class in the tug-of-war yesterday. The sophomores were able to capture only the first of the three pulls.- Frederick M. Asbeck, captain of the freshman, won the toss of the coin just prior to the games and chose the east bank of the Huron river for his class. The sophomores arrived at the scens of conflict first, followed by their opponents, both classes' led by their bands, composed of members of the Varsity Reserve band together with other members of the respective sides. The sophomore band took a position in the river where they re- mained during the entire contest. Only the freshmen were daubed with paint,' their opponents refraining from the use of the customary red for the after- noon. Sophomores Win First Heat The first pull was between picked teams of 50 men, and resulted in a win for the sophomores, who dragged the opposing group 30 feet, according to the dcision of Harry I-awkins, '26E, referee of the games. In the secondl tug, the first year men gained an ad-' vantage of 25 feet during the 10 mi- ute period. With a win for each of the classes,E the result of the afternoon contest1 depended upon the free-for-all. The' sophomores were outnumbered, as ist customary in the spring events, and1 although they gained a few feet onr their adversaries at the outset, it was1 soon lost and they were dragged< across the river. The entire team1 took the ducking, refusing to drop theP rope until they had reached the op-1 posite bank and the contest had been closed by the referee's gun.t Today's struggle between the under- classmen will consist of three events,t starting at 10 o'clock, the first off which will be the obstacle race. It will be a relay run of three heats, four men on a team, and the partici- pants will be compelled to leapt hurdles, crawl through barrels, andl climb fences during the run. The winner of two of the heats will receivet one point in the games.r Horse And Rider Contest < For the first time in several years, the horse and rider contest will be. used in the Spring games. Each class1 has 11 man teams, each consisting of a man who is the "horse" an,1 hisr rider, the object being to unsaddle as many riders as possible, one point go- ing to the side acgomplishing this re- sult. The games will be closed by the cus- tonary rope tying contest ill which the classes will participate as a body. Ropes will be furnished the contest- ants, who will be given a 15 minute period to catch, tie their opponents, I and place them in pens, which will, be constructed at each end of South1 Ferry field. The class which succeeds1 in tying the most men will be awarded t one point toward the games. It will be necessary for each side to keep their captives in their pens until after the 15 minute period as, unlike pre-1 vious years, they will not be counted until after the contest. All "M" men and junior honorary society men are again asked to of- ficiate at the games today. They will meet at 9 o'clock at the Union.

Daugherty, King, Miller Indicted (By Associated Press) NEW YORK, May 7.-The special Federal grand jury investigating the' sale of the American Metal company, today indicted Harry M. Daugherty, former United States attorney-general, Thomas W. Miller, former alien prop- erty custodian, and John T. King, for- mer Republican national committee- man, for conspiracy to defraud the government. The grand jury, concluding investi- gations begun last January, charged Daugherty, Miller, and King with' con- spiracy to defraud the government in connection with the transfer of seven million dollars of American Metal company bonds from the custody of the government to Suissgpour Daleurs De Metaus, a Swiss company alleged to have been German owned.

The owners contended the industry could not afford pres- ent wages unless hours of work were lengthened. The government has been paying a subsidy to make up the existing scale, but this was discontinued May 1. The owners refused to pay more and the strike was called last Saturday. The government takes the atti- tude that the men's position is a challenge to British freedom. It is prepared to use troops to keep or- der and voluntary aid to transport the necessities of life. The unions say they have been forced into their present position. A. J. Cook, the miners' secretary, issued a slogan for the strike as follows: "Not a penny off wages, not a minute on working hours." core gall AB 5 5 4 4' 4 4 3 4 0 3 (By Associated Press WASHINGTON, May 7-The House today swung into the home stretch of the four-day period set aside for debate on the Haugen, Tincher, and Curtis-Aswell farm relief bills. The half-way post was rounded at a ses- sion Thursday night and indications .pointed to members again sitting till well afterdark. So far only a handful have spoken and little positive indication has been given as to the trend of sentiment, al- though friends of each proposal hold the drift to be their way. Each has been explained by its au-] thor, Representative Tincher, Repub-1 lican, Kansas, completing the trio by taking the floor in behalf of his meas- ure Thursday night. As yet, however, no party leaders have spoken and their' paternal voices are awaited to give the first definite clew of prospective line- ups. Prohibition, meanwhile, has bobbed up anew in the situation, with Repre- sentative Black, Democrat, New York, contending in a statement that is the reason farm relief is needed and ass- serting that "the answer to the farm problem is light wine and beer." PLANS LAID FOR SELING STOCK IN HOTEL PROJECT After several meetings ending in dleadlocks, the committees working on Ann Arbor's proposed municipal ho- tel have arrived at a decision regard- ing the sale of stock in the new build-! ing. According to a statement by the executive committee, 3,500 shares of common stock are to be issued at $100 I a share, payable over a period of 14 months. The organization directing the proj- ect is to be called the Citizens Hotel company of Ann Arbor and will build a structure at an approximate cost of $488,000, which will have from 100 to 125 guest rooms. Its presence is expected by Ann Arbor citizens to do nuch in relieving the housing problem during the football season.z Control is to be kept in the hands of the townspeople, although an oper- ating company may be selected to manage the hotel. ELECTION REISTRATION' EXTENDED ANOTHER DAY. In order to provide every oppor- ,tunity for all students to vote at the spring elections Wednesday, cntin- ued registration will be held at one booth on the campus on Monday. The booth in the middle of the diagonal opposite the Library will be open to registration for students of all schools from 9 to 2:30 o'clock on that day. Registration the first twosdays ex- ceeded that of last year by some 500, it was stated by members of the Stu- ;dent council last night, with' some im- provement shown yesterday in the in- terest displayed by women students over Thursday. From present indi- cations more than 5,000 students will be entitled to vote at the campus elec- tion, it was stated. BRITISH STRIKE REACHES FIFTH DAY; SHOWS NO 516NSA__ PEACE1 BOTH SIDES AIE READY TO US STRONGER FORCES IN CONFLICT ARE DEADLOCKED Trades Uion Congress Threatens To Call Out Two Millioli More English Workers SOVIET AIDS STRIKERS (By Associated Press) MOSCOW, May 7.-The general concllof the trades unions of th Onionof Soiet Socialist Rpub- lies, has transferred two million rubles to the British Trades Union congress. This is the second in. stallment of the collection being made among the Soviet unions to ald the British strikers. Sub- scriptions are still coming in. LONDON, May 7.-Neither side of the strike dispute shows the slightest disposition of yielding to the other as Great Britain's great industrial strug- gle goes into its fifth day today. On the contrary, there is a tendency to use stronger forces on both sides. The government is enrolling thousands of additional volunteers to substitute for the strikers and anhounces it will re- inforce the relief recruiting, if possi- ble, by 50,000 special constables. On its side, the Trades Union con- gress is talking of calling out its see- ond line of defense which', it claims, would add another two million per- sons to the strikers. As far as the general public is con- cerned, things seem to be growing easier daily. The organization pro- vided by the government and volunteer efforts, especially for transport, is continually improving, with a subse- quent lessening of public inconveni- once. No Serious Disorders A notable feature of the gigantic conflict, now at the end of its fourth day, is the complete absence of serious disorders; not a single death has been laid to the strike. In almost all pre- vious miner's strikes, there was con- siderable trouble in (the coal fields, but on this occasion they are remarkably free from disorder. Although there were vague rumors today that a possible settlement was imminent, so far as the general pub- lie is concerned peace has still made no headway. Nothing appears as yet 'to have developed from the unofficial talk between Premier Baldwin and J. H. Thomas, who, as head of the rail- way men's union, is looked to as the man most likely to bring peace be- tween the government and the trades Iunions. "'rhe British Worker," mouthpiece of the strikers, in tonight's issue, says that the council of the Trades Union I congress wishes it to be clearly under- stood that no official or unofficial overtures have been made to the go= ernment by any individual or group of individuals, either with or without the sanction of the general council. The council declared further 'that it is ready at any moment to enter into preliminary discussions regarding withdrawal of the lock-out notices and the ending of the general stoppage 1 and the resumption of negotiations for the honorable settlement of the min- 'ng dispute, but added that "the pre- liminary discussion must be free from any condition." Government Reimalis irnm As the government insists on the unconditional withdrawal of the strike notices, there seems no basis of ap- proach between the two sides. Never- theless, J. Ramsay MacDonald, the for- iner Labor premier, and the parhia- pmentary Labor party are still doing everything possible to promote peace. A. J. Cook, secretary of the miners' federation, and Frank Hodges, secre- tary of the Miners' International fed- e ration, who has arranged to go to Ostend for the International Miners' conference opening tomorrow, can- celled their journey tonight. They de- cided to remain in England over the week-end, and, with the other trades union leaders, address the strikers' meetings Sunday. This sudden change in plan is taken in some quarters as indicating the possibility of a new development. In the meantime the country is trying to carry on in as near a nor- mal manner as possible. There have l been disorders in London. esnecially RI 1. 1 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1. G I 2 2 0 0 2 0 0 0 9 PO A 4 2 6 2 0 0 5 0 2 0 3 0 3 2 J 3 0 1 11 27 11 Totals .... Tangen, 3b . Donagan, If Ellerman, 2b.
