No. 6 EIGHT PAGES ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, SUNDAY, OCTOBER 3, 1926 EIGHT PAGES PRICE FIVE CENTS STRESEMANN URGES CONCILIATION FOR EUROPEANNATIONS ASKS AID OF UNITED STATES IN SECURING PEACE OF CONTINENT LAUDS DAWES PLAN Chairman Of People' Party Believes That Germany Is Returning To Position Of Equality (By Associated Press) COLOGNE, Germany, Oct. 2.-For- eign Minister Stresemann today again sounded the note of European con- ciliation and besought the help of the United States in achieving it. Acting as chairman of the People's party convention here, lie presented the most complete outline of Ger- many's foreign policy that has been made public as yet. He traced the political development since the Treaty of Versailles, the occupation of the Ruhr valley by the French and finally Germany's entry into the League of Nations. This latter step, he said, represented a steady growth in Ger- many's return to treatment on an equality with the rest of the world. Turning to his recent discussion with Foreign Minister Briand at Thoiry, Dr. Stresemann held that a "Franco-German understanding is the basi's for any European understanding and pacification." Refers To Coolidge He asserted, that the Thoiry policy in nowise ran counter to a general understanding of the nations of the world, nor was it directed against other nations or group of nations. On the contrary, he said, all nations should help, especially the United States, in restoring the spirit of con- ciliation. "The United States," he declared, "has followe a policy ever since the Treaty of Versailles designed to bring about the real pacification of Europe." Dr. Stresemaan referred particularly to President Coolidge's address at Cambridge in July, 1925, as indicating the desire of the United States to see cpncord established in Europe. In this address, President Coolidge pledged the moral support of the United States to Europe in re-estab- lishing stability and accord. Dr. Stresemann did not refer to the recently signed Western European steel consortium by name, but men- tioned it indirectly asserting that It did not contemplate ruinous competi- tion with England and the United States. The German foreign minister said "that one decided step in the direction of European understanding and accord was the Dawes agreement. Despite the difficult burden imposed upon Ger- many by this agreement, he said, it took the reparations problem out of politics." (By Associated Press)f WASHINGTON, Oct. 2.-A plea voiced in Cologne today by German Foreign Minister Stresemann for American participation in the re- habilitation of Europe attracted con- siderable attention here but failed to invoke any authorized comment in administration circles. The address seemed to be regarded as designed to throw light in connec- tion with the flurry caused In Euro- pean capitals by the recent private conferences between the French and German premiers and later between the Italian premier, Mussolini and Sir Austin Chamberlin, British for- eign minister, rather than for the significance of its references to the United States. Urges Security Pact In an address at Cambridge, to which the German statesman referred in making his plea, President Coolidge stressed the importance in American eyes of security agreements between the European powers as basis of econ- omic restoration. It contained a sug- gestion, at least, that American finan- cial aid in that readjustment could hardly be expected under any other conditions. The President has frequently urged s-eurity pacts in connection with arms liitations abroad. Speaking at Ar-, lington on Memorial day this year he sai: "Eu rope has the Leaguetof Na- ions.d that ought to be able to pro- videthose countries with certain po- litical guarantees which our country does not require." In view of the emphasis the Presi- dent has always laid in his public ut- terances upon the policy of standing aloof from European political en- 4 tan.glerents, the expression of Chan- c'llor Si resemann probably cannot be rcarded as more than a reiteration STUDENTS GIVEN ANOTHER CHANCE TO APPL Y FOR "M" SECTION SEA TS By special arrangement made yes- terday with the Athletic association, students who have not applied for seats in the new permanent cheering section, but who have already sent in their applications for tickets, may obtain seats in the bloc of 1,200 by leaving their names at the Union and paying the customary fee of $1 for outfits. There are a number of seats left in the cheering section which will be available at the Union between 9 and 5 o'clock for the next few days, starting tomorrow. The new section has not filled as rapidly as was expected due to a mis- understanding on the part of many students as to when and how appli- cations were to be filed for seats in the bloc. When the section was opened to freshmen, nearly all first year men had sent in their applications for seats elsewhere in the stadium in an ffeort to obtain extra tickets. Many fresh- men applied for cheering section seats after their applications had been sent in which could not be given them at that time. Under the new arrangement wheth- er a student has filed his applications1 or not, he may enroll in the cheering section by leaving his name and ad- dress at the Union. Members of the Student council will then take the name to the offices of the Athletic as- sociation where they will stamp the corresponding applications "cheering section." Inasmuch as all tickets for the M. S. C. game must be in the mails by to- morrow night, students signing up for the cheering section at the Union this week cannot possibly have their seats in the bloc for.the M. S. C. game. For this reason the Student council may decide to wait until the Minnesota game for the inauguration of the sec- tion in order that it may be complete- ly filled. All students who applied for single seats for most of the games are ex- pected to take advantage of the new arrangement and enroll in the cheer- ing bloc at once. Many freshmen will undoubtedly do likewise considering the. fact that there is little possibility of their securing extra seats for any of the big home games, according to information yesterday at the offices of the Athletic association. FLUOPfS THREATEN ILLINOISDISTRICT People Flee Homes As Water Forces Levees At Breaking Points;' Two Lives Lost BIBLE TRAN SLATION Will Give Lecture Tomorrow On iValue Of A Simple Interpretation E For Readers. JACKSONVILLE IN PERIL i IS HERE FOR SEMESTER (By Associated Press) CHICAGO, Oct. 2.-Hundreds of families fled from their homes in the Illinois river valley today as the Mis- sissippi and Illinois rivers approach- ed or exceeded flood stage with levees at the breaking point. Two lives were lost in the valley region. At Jacksonville, the second big flood in two days threatened, when rain began falling in torrents at 3 o'clock. The city is without commercial light and its gas supply is nearly exhaust-. ed. The Chamber of Commerce or- dered all business houses closed at 6 o'clock. Nearly 25 families of Liverpool, Chautauqua, and East Liverpool were driven to the hills as the Illinois river rose. South Beardstown was virtually vacated during the day as the river rose and stopped bridge traffic and forced the use of a ferry. The southern quarters of Naples was flooded, forcing many families to evacuate. Flood warnings on the Mississippi above the mouth of the Missouri river and for the Illinois river, were issued by the weather bureau at St. Louis. The Illinois river, rose 15 Sinches at Naples where train service was in- terrupted and the pumping plant shut down. Volunteers spent the day building temporary levees around Liverpool on both sides of the river, where it was declared even a slight wind would wreck them. Appeals were sent to the government shipyards at Peoria for aid. At Peoria, the river passed flood stage of 22.2 feet last night. Rivers and creeks in southern Kan- sas inundated farm lands for the sec- ond time this fall, swelled by rain which began yesterday afternoon. The San Jose and Missouri Pacific railroad were halted near Sedan and Niotaze, Kansas. Little Caney and Middle Caney creeks, near Sedan, reached their highest stage since 1884. The Verdigriss and Elk's rivers were still risiig tonight.

BORAK ANDPHIPPS MAKEc REPORTS TO REPUBICNSt Eastern Senator Claims Easy Victory For Party In Doubtful States (By Associated Press) CHICAGO, Oct. 2.-Political reports from Senator William E. Borah, Idaho, Clorado chairman of the Republican Senate campaign committee, and by Senator L. C. Phipps, on conditions in the West, were made here today, the latter dealing with Eastern states. Coincident with their statement, Senator Borah offered his services as a campaigner to the committee, and was accepted, tentatively being as- signed to Indiana, Oklahoma, and Mis- souri. Senator Phipps declared that in five eastern states where close contrast of the senatorship has been claimed, the Republican candidates will be success- ful without exertion. The Republican party will win, he said, in Massachusetts, New York, Maryland, Kentucky and Missouri. "These five states," said Senator Phipps, "can be set down as safely Republican. Indiana and Ohio realize that Senators Willis, Watson and Rob- ertson are certain to be re-elected. "In Illinois there i no doubt as to the election of Colonel Frank L. Smith." Congressman Walter Newton, of Minnesota, chairman of the speaker's bureau, announced that Senator Borah would conduct an active speaking campaign in behalf of Republican can- didates in various states, Indiana, Ok- lahoma and Missouri probably being included in his itnerary. Senator Borah said that lie would be ready to take the stump after a brief visit to Washington on official business. "B o" ThI lend a Star Wolverine fullback, who scored three touchdowns in yesterday's game with Oklahoma. Molenda was a consistent ground gainer throughout the entire game adding to Michigan's yardage both on line plunges and as the receiver of several passes, one of which resulted directly in a touchdown. Plunkelt Will. Give Speech AtI First Smoker Naval experience of a large and va- ried nature, is the property of Ad- miral Charles P. Plunkett, commander of the third naval district and navy yard, New York, who is to speak to engineering students at an informal smoker and get-together to be given soon under the auspices of The Mich- igan Technic. From the time Admiral Plunkett graduated from Annapolis in 1884, he rose steadily, gaining his first com- mission in the active service, two years after graduation. He was ap- pointed temporary rear admiral in 1918 and his rank was made perma- nent a year later. His work in the late war included commanding the 14-inch naval bat- teries in France, and also director in charge of gunnery training and engi- neering. Before the war, he was a member of the Naval War college, be- ing promoted to chief of the staff of that institution. Success of the transatlantic flight of 1919 is greatly due to the work of Admiral P lunkett for he was the offi- cer in charge of all operations for the trip He was promoted to his present position in 1922 after being president of the building inspection and survey for one year. U POINCARE GOVERNMENT IORDERIS NEW .ECONOMIES (By Associated Press) PARIS, Oct. 2.-The Poincaire gov- ernment has decreed new economies in the administration of France's pub- lic business. The ministry of education, headed by Edouard Herrot, will notably feel the retrenchment in provisions for the suppression of (iuplicating services, reduction of personnel, consolidation of bureaus, and in some cases fusion of secondary and primary schools. M. Herriot's program, which the ministerial council approved, also re- duces the personnel of the general ad- ministration of his ministry and pro-- vides for the fusion of the administra- ton staffs of technical and general schools as fas as possible. Consolidations will be effected in other ministries, notablly the combin- ing of the purchasing services of the a rmy and navy, hitherto separate.

Simpson Michigan forward passed its way to an unimpressive victory over the Oklahoma Aggie football team in the opening game of the 1926 season before a crowd of 20,000 yesterday"at Ferry field. The score was 42 to 3. Innumerable substitutions and frequent calls for time out made the game one of the slowest played on Ferry field in many years.;Both teams, finding it difficult to gain through the line and around the ends, resorted to a wild passing game. With Captain Friedman directing the play from quarterback, Michigan used its usual aerial attack, attempt- ing 29 passes. Coach Maulbetsch's eleven, being able to gain only one first down during the first half, opened the second period with a passing Margin Of Field Goal Point Separates Teams Fougl4t Battle And Extra' In Hard PASSES DECIDE CLASH' (By Associated Press) ANNAPOLIS, Md., Oct. 2.-By the margin of a field goal and an extra point after touchdown, both the foot- work of Tom Hamilton, Middie quar- terback, the Navy turned back the powerful Purdue eleven of the Wes- tern Conference here today, 17 to 13. Both teams pushed across a pair of touchdowns, the Sailors scoring first when Hennegen raced 25 yards through center for six points. Hamil- ton annexed a seventh counter. Purdue answered the Middie chal- lenge by opening the second period with a touchdown, a 22 yard pass, Liphtle to Wilcox, and a 10 yard dash by the latter netted the Westerners their first score. The try for extra point failed. on downs after the Navy marched 60 Purdue took the ball fro mthe Navy yards to the two yard line, but Hamil- ton led the advance again and scored by way of a drop kick. Another forward pass for 37 yards, Wilcox to Hutton, gave Purdue the edge as thesecond half opened, but the Navy surged ahead again with another, Hamilton to Lloyd, for 40 yards and a score.

Score' in Four liinutes The Wolverines scored their first touchdown in the first four minutes of play and hurried their attack to score 16 points before the end of the first period. !Michigan was given its first opportunity to score when Friedman threw a long pass to Molenda, who carried the ball to the Oklahoma 25 yard line before being tackled. With Rich and Molenda alternating with line plunges, Michigan brought the ball to the five yard line, giving the Wolvernies another first down. Molen- da carried the ball across for the first Michigan score of the season by plun- ging through the center of the line fox three yeards. Friedman kicked goal, making the score 7 to 0. Oosterbaan, Wolverine left end, paved the way for the second touch- down when he intercepted a pass on the Southwesterner's 39 yard line. On a long pass, Rich brought th ball to the 15 yard line, and on a series of line bucks, Molenda took the ball over the goal line for the second tally. Friedman's attempt to kick goal was successful. In the closing minutes of the first period, Flora, Michigan's right end, blocked Perry's punt, the ball rolling back over the goal line. Flora race after the ball, recovering it Ofter it had rolled across the end zone, giving Michigan two more points. In the of- ficial rule book, the following state- ment is made in regard to a safety made on a blocked punt: "A safety is made if the ball crosses the end line or the sidelines extended, provided the impetus which sent it across the goal line was given by the side defending that goal. Such impetus could come from a kick which bounds back from an opponent or from one of the kick- er's own side." Greenwald Scores Third Michigan's third touchdown was made by Greenwald on a short pass over the goal line after Friedman's long pass to Babcock had put the Wol- verines In the 10 yard line. Friedman's attempt to kick goal failed, bringing the score to 22 to 0. Molenda scored his third touchdown on a short pass just over the goal line in the closing minutes of the first half. The first half ended with the score 29 to 0' in favor of the Yost eleven McClain, the Oklahoma left halfback, put the Southwesterners in a position to score when he caught a pass and ran to the 15 yard line before being downed. After a series of line plunges failed to gain, Perry called Strack back on a place kick formation. Kick- ing from the 17 yard line, Strack booted the ball directly between the bars for his team's lone score. , Friedman gave Michigan the im- petus to score the first touchdown in the second half when he caught a punt in midfield and raced 23 yards into Oklahoma territory. By clever dodg- ing Greenwald netted a six yard gain. Molenla bucked the line twice and added another first down, placing-the ball on the 10 yard line. Friedman threw two perfect passes to the edge of the field to Greenwald and Molenda, but both were incomplete by narrow margins. On the last down Ooster- baan made a sensational leap into the air and snared a short pass from Friedmn, falling across the goal line ''for the fifth touchdown. Friedman again failed to kick the goal after the touchdown.
