MARINES ATTACK
PORT OF CORINTO
MANAGUA, Nicaragua, Jan. 7-The
attention o" American Marines, in
their conflict with the rebel Gen.
Akustina, today was turned to a strike
at the port of Corinto, just as the
first American wounded arrived after
a clash with the rebel forces in the
(department of Nueva Segovia.
The situation in Corinto had become
so serious that Col Louis Mason Gu-
lick, commander of the American Ma-
rine forces in Nicaragua, felt it ne-
cessary to leave today by airplane for
the fort. While there he will confer
with Adr.t. David S. Sellars, who ar-
rived at Corinto with additional Ma-
rines.
The same landing field that Col-
Gulick and America's good will am-

OF TARIFFPROBLEMS
HOUSE REPUBLICANS TO HEE)'
NON-REVISION D)EMANI)S
OF ADMINISTRATION
SENATORS ASK REVISION
McMaster, Author Of Declaration For
New Rates, Expects Solid
Democrat Support
(By Associated Press)
WASHINGTON, Jan. 7-For the
first time in years the Senate is going
to take up the tariff Monday, but as itj
is without power to initiate revenue
legislation, the move seems destin
to be just an expression of opinion
regardless of the outcome.{
Republicans in the House, where ta-
riff legislation must originate, are
heeding the will of the administration
against any revision now of the con-
troversial import schedules and no
action there this session is in sight
Hlowever, the proposal asking the
Senate for a declaration in favor of
general downward revision of, the ta-
riff rates comes from the Republican
side--Senator McMaster, of South Da-
kota, is its author-- and with the a
ticipated support of an almost solid
Democratic vote its sponsor believes
it will be adopted.
Leaders have given the Meastert
resolution right of way for. Molday
and early action is anticipated, al-I
thou;gh this favored subject of politi.
cal debate is expected to prove a
tem'pting morsel for the orators and
for those anxious to lay the ground-
work for their campaigning next fall.
Expects Support
Senator McMaster declared today he
expected to win considerable support
for the resolution also from the Re-,
publican side of the chamber. While
his resolution would call for a gen-
eral slash in tariff rates, the South
Dakota senator made .t c:ear that he
did not intend any cut in the sched-
ules affecting agriculture.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 7 - The Sen-
ate ended two of its innumerable in-.
vestigations today; the House shoved
another on the waiys, and Frank L.
Smith, of Illinois, fixed a solid shot
across the bows of a third and
brought it to an abrupt halt.
The net result was a certain net
loss of one for the inquiries on the
legislative board, while the status of
another-that of the Reed slush fund?
committee's investigation :nto the fit.
ness of Smith to hold office as a sen-
ator from Illinois-remains in doubt.
The House, working while the Sen-
ate remained in recess, performed the
only legislative tasks of the day by
adopting a resolution authorizing a
special commission to investigate the

GRENFELL WILL GIVE
Famous Labrador. fssion Doctor Will
Tell Experiences Encountered
In Work Among Fishermen -
TALK TO BE ILLUSTRATED
Sir Wilfred T. Grenfell, famous La-
brador mission doctor, and creator of
the International Grenfell association,
is coming next Sunday to Ann Arbor
to speak in the morning at the 11
o'clock service in St. Andrew's
Church, and to give an illustrated1
public lecture at 8 o'clock at night in
Hill auditorium.
I President Clarence Cook Little will
presmde at the lecture and Dr. Iufj
Cabot will introduce the speaker.
Dr. Grenfell will give a first hand
acccunt of his exp(eriences in carry-1
ing surgical skill an imeciical relief
to the stricken inhabitants of froz'en
Labrador. For 30 years he has de-
voted his l,'e to relief work among
fishermen in the icy waters of the
polar current during the season ofc
open water, and to work among the
inhabitants who have to be reached
by 1 ong t ris with Eskinvo dog teams
during the Labrador winter.
Dr. Grenfell has attracted hundreds
1of volunteer workers to his hospital
l education and welfare work, who go
north from all parts o the United
States and Canada, as well as Eng-
land, to assist him. Groups of college
students, particularly, have gone toI
Labrador to aid in Dr. Grenfell's
work. Johns Hopkins Medical School
in Baltimore and the Harvard Medi-
cal School have sent the largest num
hers.
When Dr. Grenfel lwent to Labra-
dor in 1892 he found the struggling
line of white and half-breed village1
along its shore poverty-stricken and
? demora'ized. His first move was to
establish medical stations along th"
coast, which have fought a long but
winning battle against the scourges
of small pox, typhoid, and tuberculo-
si.
He held Sunday religious services
which formerly had been dependent
! upon occasional visits fro~h English
missionaries. Often there had been no
one to bury the dead or marry the

CLASS TREASURERS
All class treasurers of the
University are expected to attend
a meeting to be held under the
auspices of the Student council
tomorrow afternoon in room 304
of the Union. The meeting will 1
be held at 5 o'clock, and Charles
Gilbert, '28, of the Student coun-
cil, will distribute receipt books
to the class treasurers at this
time. A date for the collection of
class dues will also be deter-
mined at the meeting.

HUGE CROWD SEES GAME
Victors Use S"tnr ing Lineup Without

(By Associated Phess)
CHICAGO, Jan. 7.--In the fastest
game Northwestern has played this
season, the Purple basketball five
swept over Michigan, Big Ten chai-
pions, 25 to 20, in their inaugural
game at Patton gym tonight,
Going through the entire game
without a substitution, the Northwest-
ern five established themselves as a
force to be reckoned with during the
1928 Conference race by decisively
trouncing the 1927 champions after
trailing them 12 to 10 at the half.
j During the second period, the North-
western five started working like an
oiled machine and rarely let Michigan
even get a try at their goal.
A record-breaking crowd packed
Patton gymnasium for the first Con-
ierence gam-e of the season, as ad-
vance sell-outs indicated that the
struggle would be one of the lead-
ing attractions in the basketball
world. Benny Oosterbaan, twice All-
American end, and Capt. Frank Harri-
gan each scored two field goals 'for
the Wolverines, and the latter add,1
two points by the foul route. Gleish-
man took scoring honors for North-
western by ringing four field goals,
but every man on the team had ,his
share of the spoils. McCoy, Nyland,
Rose, an]-i Gawne all saw service at
the disputed fifth position on Michi-
gap's lineup before the conflict was
over.

large. in addition to these students
three faculty members, to be appoint-
ed by the University Senate, will be
on the board, two alumni members,
appointed by the board of directors of
the Alumni association, the general
secretary of the Alumni association,
one nember of the Board of Regents,
thet financial secretary of the Union,
who is appointed by the Senate coun-
cil of the University, and the dean of
Ftudents. The idea of putting the dean
of students on the board is a new step
incorporated in the plan.
The new plan also provides for one
extra student vice-president, since the
dental college has never had a vice-
president of' its own on the Union
board before.
The financial power of the Union
will be vested in a committee of this
newly arranged board of directors,
with the Regent as an ex-officio
member, the president of the Union
as an ex-officio member, the financial
secretary as an ex-officio member,
and two non-students as the other
members. The financial committee
will in a certain sense displace the
present board of governors, since
theirs will be the privilege of choos-
ing the general manager and he will
he responsible to them.
Will Direct Aethities
The activities of the Union will be
under the direction of an activities
committee appointed from the board
of directors, several members of which
will be students, and which shall have
charge of all activi ties conducted
within the Union building. There will
also b', a house committee composed
partially of students to assist the gen-
eral manager- in the running of the
Union, according to the new plan.
This plan of consolidating the func-
tions of the present board of gov-
ernors and board or directors into one
unit to be called the board of diref-
tors cannot be consummated until the
nembers of the Union., represented
by at least 600 men students approve.
For this purpose a meeting will be
called early in the second semester

COUNCIL TO MAKE
ATTENDANCE RULE
I Compulsory methods for insuring
attendance at its meetings will be de-
cided gpon at the Interfraternity
council session to be held tomorrow at
i4:30 o'clock in room 304 of the
Union.
j A special committee, consisting \of
? Orville Dowzer, '29, chairman, Rueben
D. Wax, '29, and William C. Campbell,
'29 will present a iteport suggesting a
means for assuring a complete repre-
sentation at the council meetings.
This will probably take the form of a
fine of 10 to 25 dollars to be imposed,
upon fraternities whose delegates are
absent from two or more meetings.
It is hoped by this method to allay
the difficulties which have somewhat
1imidered the prompt and e.. cient ac-
it"Ol of the council in the past. On
several occasions important matters
have had to be deferred due to the
lack of a quorum at the meetings.
Co-incidentally with the measures for
t attendance it is requested that all fra-
ternities elect a regular delegate to
r be present at all the council meet-
ings. This policy is in line with a
resolution passed by the council sev-
eral months ago.

Thomas, a 125-pound star, also de-

winning from Kailes, another AMA
man, with an advantage of 7:38.
The 135-pound match was won by
Dulude, 1927 winner, who won a de-
cision over Finley, AMA winner, with
a 6:39 advantage. Finley showed the
effects of his overtime bout with El-

lie gained the advantage late in the
match, Dulude's margin was too
