Value Of Rolling Stock Soars Rapidly
When Students Take To Use Of Skates

By TimothyHay
"If we can't ride, we'll roll," seems
to be the philosophy of students seen
yesterday on campus rushing along on
roller skates, evidently in protest of
the proposed ruling of the Regents
banning student autos.
The stadium on the diagonal was a
favorite skating rink, and students
welcomed the move that found some
use for the white benches. Edward I
C. Pardon, superintendent of the build- I
ings and grounds department, said last
night that as far as he knows there is
no rule against skating on the cam-
pus walks, although bicycles are bar-
red.
Hardware stores reported last night
that they were completely sold out
of skates and were ordering additional
supplies by express. One store report-
ed that in one hour they sold more
than a dozen pair, and that one frat-
ernity bought six pairs in a single
lot.
Students living in the outskirts of
the city will have to buy buggies, since
skating in from a distance would mean
hot-boxes. Hitching post will have
to be established on campus and spe-
cial racks made to hold roller skates
in the classrooms.
PRESIDENT COMMS
ON STUDENT VEICLES
Little Declares Attitude Of Student
Body May Cause Banning Of
Cars From Campus
ARGUMENTS ARE LISTED'
Further comment on the action
which may be taken to ban student-
owned automobiles as a result of the
accident of Thursday morning in
which one student was killed, and'
three others seriously injured, was
made yesterday by President Clarence
Cook Little. Stating that he believed
automobiles eventually would be ban-
ned from the campus because of the
general attitude of the student body
rather than any direct acts, President
Little said that he thought no admin-
istrative move in enforcing the pres-
ent ruling would suffice. The facts
he presented were as follows:
"1. A number of the students have,
after their co-operation has been re-
quested failed to carry out either the
spirit or the letter of the University
rules.
"2. The number is sufficiently
large to show that regulations would
involve a very large overhead of paid
officials, special police inspectors,
plain clothes men, and other agents
usually employed where a group of
any size is interested in defying the
rules of the community as a whole.
"3. The University has neither the
money to divert from purposes of edu-
cation, nor at present the will so to
divert it, to make such a system of
police a part of its problems.
"4. The reckless driving, disregard
of others on the road, overloading

of cars, disregarding of stop street
signs, and infraction of parking rules
by many student drivers imperil not
only the" lives o those genial but
thoughtles offenders,but also the
safety of innocent bystanders and
travelers.
1"5. Personal habits which reach
out and afflict a community instead
of being confined to the person are
out of date and out of place in a Uni-
versity community or any other social

group. Carelessness, thoughtlessness,
and other sometimes lovable qualities
become grim and menacing when one
allows the individuals so affected a
high-powered death dealing implement
with which to play.".
President Little said that the issue
would be decided on other questions
than "the paternalism which seemed.1
to chafe" the student body, the most
important one of which would be pub-
lic safety. He pointed out that the
S present rules had been a failure in

Invaders Display Fine Baiting Form
As Michigan Defense Cracks
Early In Game
MILLER HITSHOME RUN
Michigan staged a poor exhibition
of so-called baseball on Ferry field
yesterday afternoon and went down
in defeat before the Northwestern
university nine, losing the second Con-
ference game by a score of 10 to 7.
The fine fielding that the Mich-
igan team displayed against Purdue
in the season opener was only a
pleasant memory yesterday, as the
Wolverines rolled and tumbled after
the 16 hits that the Northwestern
players earned off four of the Mich-
igan pitchers.
Fielding Is Rugged
At no time during the game, except
in the first inning, did Michigan loom
as a likely winner. Starting in the
second inning, when the Purple scor-
ed four runs, the ragged fielding of
the Wolverines, and their inability
to get to Mills, southpaw hurler, for
timely hits, definitely put an end to
the Michigan hopes of turning in its
first Conferenmce victory.
If Northwestern is to be regard-
ed as a comparatively weak team, it
certainly did not run true to its rep-
utation yesterday. Don Miller, Coach
Fisher's pitching ace, lasted little
more than an inning, in which time
Northwestern scored four runs before
Ruetz replaced him. Ruetz, who at
first seemled a capable relief mamn,
soon gave way under the perpetual
hammering of the invaders: and the
poor support afforded him by the
local team, especially by the infield.
Twelve hits were scored off Ruetz be-
fore Coach Fisher decided he had had
enough punishment, and sent Asbeck
to the mound in the eighth inning,
long after the home nine had lost
hopes of tieing the score.
The only redeeming feature of the
game for the Wolverines were the
two rallies in the seventh and eighth
innings, when they hit Mills and Pal-
mer freely, and gathered a total-of
six runs. After Morse had flied out,
McCoy, sent to bat in place of Ruetz,
reached first on an error by Izard, and
advanced to second on the overthrow.
Davis poled a long single to the out-
field, but McCoy tripped in rounding
third base, and was unable to score
on the play. Don Miller, who had been
placed in right field, after having
given up the pitching job, redeemed
himself for his poor start by poling
'a long hit to left center, and completed
the circuit on the blow, for the only
home run of the day.
After Morse had singled to start the
eighth, Neblung, pinch-hitting for As-
beck, singled to center, Morse stop-
ping at second. Palmer attempted to
catch Morse off second base, but Sol-
heim missed the throw, and the run-
ners advanced a base. Davis singled,
scoring Morse. Miller struck out, but
Loos walked, and Weintraub singled,
scoring Neblung and Davis. Puckel-
wartz struck out for the third out.
Box score:

PRINCETON ACQUIRES CO-EDUCATION FOR SINGLE DAY
WHEN NUMEROUS PAPERS ARE SUCCESSFULLY HOAXED
-I

By Timothy Hay
Co-education at Princeton became
a reality for one day this month, in
the columns of The Daily and several
other papers of the country. It all
started when The Princetonian pub-
lished a big news story on page one
giving full details of a donation of
$20,000,000 for the establishment of
to-education at that center of all
that is masculine but talks and acts
Princetonian.

One of the members of The Daily
exchange desk came across the story
in the Princeton paper, and, realizing
that the fall of hallowed tradition to
say nothing of the $20,000,000, was an
item worthy of publication even in the
crowded columns of The Daily, duti-
fully reported it.
For the sensational news it con-
tained, it was indeed an insult that
the "scoop" was run on the inside
pages of The Daily, but that was
where it landed, on the principle that
nothing that hanened at Princetonf

just philosophy talks.1
And then, graduates of the shack
on the banks of Carnegie lake who'
are residing in Ann Arbor beganf
laughing, for they remembered that
it is a tradition of the Princetonian to
run one sensational story in perfect
seriousness every April 1. And this
was that.
Last year it was reported in that
paper that a ten-day vacation would
be declared immediately, but The
Daily, knowing college authorities as
it only too well does. would have
