At 9:30 o'clock the green and red masses will begin the two parades down- State street, each class to be led by its respective band. The field contests are scheduled to start promptly at 10 o'clock. Walter Crego, '30, will lead the year- lings into the fray this morning, while Jack Kelly, '29, will assume the roll of sophomore captain. The initial event of the traditional program will be the pillow fight, with two teams of five men each represent- ing each class. The class having the majority of winners in two heats of competition will be awarded one point. In case of a tie, each class will select one member to settle the issue on the wooden horse.. Five Men In Cane Spree Second on the program will be the cane spree with two teams of five men from each class again participat- ing. The class with the largest num- ber of winners will receive one point, as in the first event, a tie being de- cided in the same manner as in the pillow fight. The major contest of the games will be the flag rush when all mem- bers of both classes will take part. As in former years, the freshmen will at- tempt to ward off mass rushes by the second year men at the three poles. A green flag will adorn each pole which the sophomores will attempt to pull down. Three points for one class are possible in this event, each flag re- moved counting one point for the sophomores, and each banner undis- turbed, within the time limit, count- ing a point for the first year men. The event will be divided into two ten ' minute halves with a five-minute interval between the two periods. The total points in the games will be five, the same as a year ago. Classes Dismissed All freshmen and sophomores are excused from classes this morning in order to take part in the annual classic. No student without tennis shoes will be permitted to take part. Slugging, kicking and any unneces- sary roughness will be closely watched by the officials and absolutely prohibited. Members of the Student council junior honorary societies, and "M" men are requested to report at the Union at 9:30 o'clock to receive their officials' badges from Earl Blaser, '27, chairman of the games. Many Wisconsin students and alumni who are in Ann Arbor for to- day's football game will attend the games this morning, and preparations have been made to handle a large crowd of spectators. English Physicist Explains Discharge Tube To Group Explaining the k asic discoveries in! connection with the cathode ray of the gas containing discharge tube, Prof. R. Whiddington, D. S. C., F.

Coplyrighlt 1926 by The Michigan D ailjy. Commenting on crime and possible legislation which would aid in de- creasing it Prof. Thomas H. Reed of the political science department stated, "It is not a problem of legislation, but of the reform of judical proceedure, a matter which must be handled by the judiciary itself, and of a higher stan- dard of ethics in the legal profession." Professor Reed explained that little could be done by legislation. There are a few minor changes in some states that might be made to remove some obstacle to the sure and swift administration of justice, but for the most part all changes must come from the' courts and the bar. He added that punishment is not meant for vengeance, but is to impress on oth' s who are tempted, that there is punishment. "It would do no good," he said, "to make the penalties of crime more severe. It is the certainty and swiftness of justice which counts." Comparing English with American proceedure Professor Reed stated that English law is not much different from the American law but that their lawyers do not look for technicalities to escape and delay trial as they do here. The reasons for that are that the barrister would lose the respect of his colleagues should he attempt the methods of American criminal lawyers who make such efforts to have their clients escape the law. One of the changes needed accord- ing to Professor Reed is a better jury system. At present there are too many corrupt practices in the pick- ing and functioning of a jury. It was his suggestion that the courts them- selves change the system. MAY GIVE CONTRIBUTIONS FUND FOR MEMORIAL BETWEEN HALVES TO BUGLER TO SOUND TAPSf Will Observe Day On Other Gridirons!

STRENUOUS SCRIMMAGES PAST WEEK HAVE TEAM ON EDGE OF YOST MAY SHIFT LINEUP Michigan May Substitute Plunging Backfield For Vaunted Passing Attack C a 9 a ENGLISH STATESMANl SCORES PARIAMENT Prof. Ramsay Muir Declares Decline Of Representative Government Prevalent In Europe ITALY RULED BY FORCE Misgiving in the working of, and the decline of confidence in, representa- tive government were emphasized by Prof. Ramsay Muir, Liberal memberj of Parliament who lectured on "Thet Decay of Parliamentary Government" yesterday afternoon in Natural Sci-a ence auditorium. Pointing out the break-down of representative govern- ment in China and India Professor Muir declared that in Europe there has been the same general tendency.- He mentioned Russia, Italy, and France as examples. Of Italy he said,1 "In Italy there has been a reversion4 to a government similar to that of Napoleon the third, a despotism byt force." He expressed the opinion that it was brought to Italy only for the moment. In England the misgivings in Par- liamentary government have been shown by the threats of organized la- bor, by the unemployment, and by the recent general strike. The causes of this unhappy condition, he asserted, was due to the immense problems caused by the war. "The events are3 so tremendously great," Professor Muir said, "that they dwarf the men who handle them." The most per- turbing fact is that representativef government is now practically univer- sal and there is now almost universal dissatisfaction with it, yet there is no substitute for it. The idea that the state should have everything to do with economic af- fairs, and the opposing idea that the state should have nothing to do with economic affairs, he branded as "in- sane." Pointing out that the per- centage of the electorate who vote is not what it should be Professor Muir said that the true work of political education was the work of the poli- tical parties. He credited the Labor party for its unresting preaching as being the pioneers in showing the way of reaching the electdrate. Another cause of dissatisfaction with Parliamentary government is that the voter has an idea that his vote counts very little. The present discussion proposing proportional rep- resentation, he said, is an evidence of the lack of confidence in Parlia- ment. Still another cause is that the House of Commons has more than it I can do efficiently and yet wastes its time by discussions concerning selfish class interests. The real government is carried on by the bureaucracy, he said. The defects of bureaucracy, he went on, are first, its lack of propor- tion in expenditure, and secondly, its red tape. The key problem, Professor Muir { concluded, is to restore confidence in the instrument of representative gov- ernment by securing good bureaucrats and good legislators. By Wilton A. Simpson Filled with a vindictive spirit, and anxious to avenge the 10 to 0 defeat given the Wolverines by the Navy last week, Michigan will line up against a strong eleven from the University of Wisconsin at 2:30 o'clock (city time) this afternoon on Ferry field. The time of the game is half an hour earlier than the other games this year.

French See Fascist Move In Conspiracy (By Associated Press) PARIS, Nov. 5.-Official quarters in France and newspapers are greatly concerned over the Catalan conspir- acy. Evidence gathered by the French police shows that while it was organ- ized ostensibly to secure antonomy for Catalonia, it presents itself to the French as a move by Premier Mus- solini to strengthen his hand in Medi- I terranean affairs by creating divisions between the Spanish and French. I Thus, it is commented by the news- papers, the French police foiled both the Catalan plot and the Italian scheme at the same time. In official quarters, it is held that the Italians who threw in their lot with the Catalans, really were acting in complete understanding with the Italian police and were working for their own ends rather than for "the liberation of Catalonia." The real mission of these Italians, the police say, was to stimulate an attack on the Italian premier so as to furnish grounds for complaint that France was allowing plots against Mussolin's life to be organized on French soil. Their aim, as outlined by the police, was to spur Col. Fran- cisco Macia, the Catalonian auton- omist leader, to action, and then, as mshe was about to strike, to betray I Macia and his followers to the Span- ish police. Capt.

The- Michigan team has had more scrim- mages this week than ever before and Is pronounced fit for any attack the. Cardinal eleven has to offer. Unsettled Weather Predicted Although the weatherman has pre- dicted unsettled weather and' probable showers, the spectators are certain to view a game featured with forward passes. Michigan's forward pass at- ack, which was so completely blocked by the Navy, has been revamped and will be given a real test today against the Badgers. George Little, former Michigan football coach and now dl- rector of athletics and head football coach at the University of Wisconsin, is one of the chief exponents of the forward pass, and will bring a team on to the 'field well versed in the art of passing,' and particularly well schooled in pass defense. However, there is cauw to4 belie that Yost is going to vary his usua attack and build up a line plunging backfield. Weber, a substitute full- back, has been working at half back during the practices this week and is likely to take the place of Greenwald at right half back. Molenda will re- sume his place at full back and will share the burden of plunging with Weber. Gilbert, who has been Mich- igan's chief ground gainer in the past few games, will play at left half- back and do the punting for the Wol- verines. Friedman will direct the play for the Yost team from quarter- back. Wisconsin Backfield Is Powerful George Little has a powerful back- field in Crofoot, Harmon, Barnum, and Kreuz, and may cause some worry to the Michigan line. Last Saturday the Badgers were unable to gain through the Minnesota line, but reports from Madison indicate that Little has strengthened his plunging attack. Wisconsin received many bruises in the grueling battle with the Gophers, and is said to be weakened by in- juries. Strauble, veteran guard, is out of the lineup with an injured chest, and will be replaced by Schuette, a new man who has shown promise of being a regular. Burruss, who has had three years experience, may get into the game, but will not start on account of injuries. Welch will re- place him at right end. Michigan Lineup Not Announced Coach Yost refused to announce his starting lineup late last night, but in- timated that there would be a few changes in the personnel of the team, the principal changes being made in the line. One of the suspected chang- es is Grinnell in place of Gabel, but this is not likely as Grinnell was- in- jured in Thursday's practice and will not be ready, for service for another week. Baer, who was off form in the Navy game, will probably retain his place at right left tackle. Baer played a great game against Illinois and is expected by the coaches to duplicate his performance today. It is rumored that there will be a change made at center and also one at left guard. Should Yost make a last minute change, Schoenfeld will start at center and Dewey will take Pal- meroli's place at left guard.
