W. Pot- ter, attorney general. Ile forwarded a ruling to this effect today in reply to a request from Courtland C. Smith, president of the University Studet council. Th attorney general admitted that the Board of Regents has no legal right to prohibit the ownership or operation of a motor vehicle by a stu- dent, this right be governed by state laws which do not discriminate against students. Cites Test Case On the other hand, he believes the University authorities have the right to enforce rules deemed necessary for the conduct of the University. The attorney general cited a Supreme court decision in the case of an Ypsi- lanti co-ed who appealed from her expulsion for smoking cigaretes. While (igaret smoking on the street is not illegal, the Supreme court ruled the question involved was not one of le- gality of the act, but of the reason- ableness of the rules promulgated by the Normal. The girl's expulsion was upheld. "Whether certain conduct or mis- condu t is legal ground for expulsion does z1ot depend upon whether the conduct or misconduct itself is unlaw- ful under state laws," Mr. Potter's opion continued. "The smoking of a pipe in a class room by a student is not unlawful, but doubtless a student who persisted in doing so might be legally subject to expulsion. Opinion Of Courts "We are of the opinion the courts would uphold the authority of the Board of Regents of the University to make the regulations relative to mo- tor cars, and we are of the opinion the Board of Regents is within its author- ity in ruling that no student at the University shall operate a motor veh- icle, except in extraordinary cases un- der the direction of the dean of stu- dents. The enjoyment of attentling public schools is necessarily condoned upon compliance with reasonable rules. Ordinarily school authorities have the right to define the offenses fr which the punishment is exclusion. T the school as in the family there -ists on the part of the students the 'Obligation of obedience to official com- 4iands. "There is no' question but that the power of school authorities over pupils is not confined to school rooms or, grounds but extends to all acts of pupils which are detrimental to the good order and best interest of the school whether committed in school hours or while the pupil is on his way to or from school or after he has re-) turned home."

THE MICHIGAN DAILY RITCHIE WILL SPEAK IN ORATORICAL SERIES Prospecti e Presidential Cani date Will Tak Feb. la, on Subjet Of Federal Centralization IS MARYLAND GOVERNOR Governor Albert E. Ritchie, o Maryland, will speak in Hill audi- torium on the Oratorical lecture series program Feb. 15, it has been an- nounced by Carl G. Brandt, of the speech department, who is in charge of this year's series. This was prev- iously the only tentative date when the complete 1927-28 series was an- nounced, although it was almost cer- tain at the time that Governor Ritchie would appear here. Governor Ritchie, who is rated as one of the most interesting politcal figures in America today, and who is a prospective candidate for the presi- dency, will take as the subject of his address here "Centralization of Gov- ernment." He has ' made a careful study of the increasing duties of the Federal Government and their effect upon state government, one of the most important political problems of the day. The Maryland governor's speeches on this subject at the recent Gov- enor's conference in northern Michi- gan attracted wide attention at that time. The next Oratorical number will be held Nov. 18 when Harry A. Franck, a graduate of the University of Michi- gan and recognized as a traveler of wide experience, will speak on the topic, "What's Happening in Pales- tine." Mr. Franck returned in August from abroad where he made an exten- sive study of the changing conditions in Palestine. Much of the material to be given in his talk here will be in- cluded in his next story of world travel soon to be published. Governor Ritchie's appearance here will comprise the sixth number on the 1927-28 Oratorical series. Committee to Choose Standard Colors o f Z apes for Graduates Appointment of a committee from the University Senate for the consider- ation of proper colors of capes and tassels for University graduating classes was announced yesterday by Dr. Frank Robbins, assistant to the President. The committee will set standard colors before the graduation exercises next spring. The last investigation made of this subject was in 1922, by a similar com- mittee from.the University Senate, but since that time three new schools and colleges, the School of Education, the School of Education, the School of Business Adniinistration, and the School of Forestry and Conservation have been added to the University, and oi additional department, the de- partment of library science. No provision has thus far been made for insignia for these new schools and as a result the present committee will be called upon to investigate the sub- ject. Several inconsistencies have been pointed out in the University practice here, Dr. Robbins explained, and these will. be straightened out before the next Commencement exercises are held. The committee appointed will bring all of the regulations up to date, according to the general practice of educational institutions through- out the country. Those who will serve on this re- cently appointed committee are: Dean George W. Patterson of the Colleges of Engineering and Architecture, Prof. C. C. Glover, of the mathematics de- partment, and Prof. H. P. Thieme of the Romance languages department.

While they have produced witnesses to connect Harry F. Sinclair witn the operations of that company, they have expressed scant hope of any direct evidence tq show that he ever was in possession of the $230,500 in Liberty bonds, which the givernment contends were once held by the Continental Trading company and subsequently obtained by M. T. Eberhart, son-in- law of Albert B. Fall, and used for his ownbenefit and for that of Fall, Just as was the case when civil suit was tried at Cheyenne, Wyoming, the government is without the testi- mony of four men they have sought to elicit information from. Eberhart refused to answer a question as to where he got the bonds, standing on his constitutional right that he did not have to answer because his evidence might tend to incriminate him. H. S. Osler, a Canadjian citizen, president of the Continental comp- any, who, the government has testi- many to show, directed the purchase of the bonds for the Continental comp- any, -is unavailable for a subpoena. The other two men who, the gov- ernment counsel contends, could tell about the Continental company in its' details, are Harry M. Blackmer. for- mer chairman of the board of the Midwest Refining company and James O'Neill, former president of the Prai- rie Oil and Gas company. They have been sojourning in Europe since the early days of the oil investigation. In the absence of these witnesses, government counsel are undertaking to show to the jury that Sinclair wasj Illinois .......2 Minnesota .. . .2 MICHIGAN ... 2 Chicago .......2 Ohio State .... 2 Northwestern .1 Wisconsin .... 1 Indiana .......0 Purdue........0 Iowa..........0 0 0 1 1 2 1 2 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 2 2 I CONFERENTE S ANI)IG 1000 1000 .666 .666 .500 .500 .333 .000 .000 .000 J j I y ' 1 'ICK ETS FR H"DULCY I I Four Dyit Performance To Be Gvien At Mimes Theater Beginning Wednesday, Nov. 2 I'S THREE-A C ITCOMEDY Seats are now being sold at the box office in Mimes theater for the run of "Dulcy," which will be presente for four performances by Comedy Club beginning Wednesday.

The Wolverines seemed stunn- ed at the outset by the loss of their star half back and kicker, Louis Gilbert, who had been operated on for an infection of his elbow an hour and a half before the gamne started. But in the second half of the game they, came back to carry the fight to Illi- nois.

In the closing minutes of the game Oosterbaan threw long passes to Hoff- man and Nyland but they were knock- ed down easily the only result being 10 yards in penalties for the Wolver- ines. Miller kicked from behind his goal line as the game ended with the ball in Illinois' possession. Zuppke, the Illini wizard, played his great substitution game with telling effect in the hot weather, using some 20 men, and proving beyond all doubt the strength of the reserve material.

BUCKEYES DEFEAT CHICAGO,_13 TO 7 (By Associnted Press) COLUMBUS, Oct. 29- Ohio State snatched victory away from Chicago here today, 13 to 7, on a 50 yard for- ward pass in the last period, winning on the type of play with which the Maroons constantly threatened the Buckeye goal line. Mendenhall, Maroon halfback, har- ried the Buckeye defense with 16 long heaves goalward, one of which was completed over the goal but was called back on a technicality.
