ESTABLISHED 1890 . tit ill; MEMBER ASSOCIATED PRESS pwm VOL. XXXVIII, No. 85. ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, SATURDAY, JANUARY 14, 10,28. EIGHT PAGES END OF TARIFF IGHT SEEN AS VOTING TIME IS PICKED IN. SENATE HOUSE MEMBERS START NEW BATTLE FOR HIGHER IMPORT RATES REPORT ON S-4 DISASTER Submerged Submarine Must Look Out For Self As Well As Other Ships, Claims Expert (By Associated Press) WASHINGTON, Jan. 13-Friday the 13th was no deterring influence on Congress today, either in the way of getting things started, or finishing them up. The House ground out another ap- propriation bill-that of the Interior department, calling for $272,000,000, most of which will go for pensions. The Senate almost finished its talk on the tariff, which has been in pro- gress for several days, and fixed Mon- day at 3 o'clock for a vote. Coincident with this action, the ta- riff fight, begun by Senator McMas- ter, of South Dakota, one of the Wes- tern Independent Republicans, spread over to the House side, where Repre- sentative Dickenson, Republican, Io- wa, prepared to go after higher ta- riff rates on agricultural imports on behalf of the farmer. Dickenson, incidentally, will have the support of Representative "Jack" Garner, the Texas Democrat-up to a certain point. Garner wants to talk tariff, but hehpromised only to help in getting the subject before the House, after which the Democrats will make no guarantees. While the House was going about in its machine-like way of passing the Interior bill today, the Senate droned along with the 'tariff, with Senator Fess, of Ohio, taking up the defense of the administration,sand perhaps a dozen m'ien taking shots at him as the opportunity offered. Probably it was a sleepy audience on the Democratic side, because most of the leaders of the minority party had been kept awake into the small hours of the morning at the JacksonhDay dinner. W yoming Governor Talks In the House committee rooms, Governor Emerson, of Wyoming, was a prominent figure. He appeared to ask that the Boulder Canyon dam billj be held up while an attempt wasi made by the states interested to reach an agreemnt. Finishing his House testimony, the governor went over to the Senate side to give his views on a project important to his section. The flood control hearings contin- ued and Chairman Griest of the pos- tal committee, drew up a bill to lower postage rates by which $10,000,000 would be lopped off the cost to the consumer. Assistant Secretary Rob- inson, told the naval committee that the Navy was not talking about a "paper fleet" when it produced its building program, but that it wanted real ships.1 BOSTON, Jan. 13- A submarine running submerged must look out for herself and for surface ships in her course as well, Lieut.-Com. Clarke Withers, a submarine expert, told the naval court of inquiry investigating the S-4 disaster today.- "When the commander of a sub- marine operating at periscope depth sees a ship heading toward him, he has two courses open to him," Lieu- tenant Commander Withers, who is executive officer of the submarine tender Bushnell, said. "He may dive deeper and go under her, or he may bring his vessel to the surface where the other vessel may see him,and both can manuver out of danger. Must Watch Others "Asubmarine running submerged must look out forsthe other ships as well as for herself. She cannot count upon the other ship seeing her, and obeying the rules of the road. submarine periscopes are built in time, and they are invisible in peace I such a way as to be invisible in war- time as well. "The one thing not to do if a col-t lision is imminent or even possible is to remain at periscope depth." The testimony of Lieutenant-Com- mander Withers was the feature of a day devoted to hearing the evidence of seven officers who took part in the. re-enactment of the S-4 disa.ter off Provincetown yesterday. Four of theE witnesses acted as observers on board the S-6 which went submerged over the course followed by the sister ship, S-4, on Dec. 17, just before its collision with the coast guard de- stroyer Paulding. Three were ob- servers on board the coast guard de- stroyer Monaghan which followed the course of the Paulding on that day. PIg IC{'Ct) VIPR qTQHKF.qC TO ADDRESS CONVOCATION --!f a r .0 A.

DOCTOR OF LABRADOR LITTLE TALKS ON SCHOOL PROBLEMS DAfLAW Srunni AT YPSILANTI NORMAL ANNIVERSARY dLi Celebrating the 75th anniversary of the founding of the Michigan State Normal college at Ypsilanti, a large number of prominent educators, in- cluding President Clarence Cook Lit- tle, delivered short speechs in the neighboring city yesterday. The Pres- ident spoke at the opening session of the celebration yesterday morning, devoting his address to a discussion of elementary and grade school teach- ing problems. President Little stated that grade and high school teachers show more favorable attitudes toward their pupils than instructors in the University, and he also added that collected data from grade, high school, and college teachers shows that there is a de- creasing interest in the student as one goes higher up the grade. This is a reason for the emphasis on ana- lysis of students by college professors, President Little declared. "The most advanced products should surely receive the most detail- ed attention, or else be subjected toa such careful evaluation and classifi- cation before coming in contact with college teachers that no effort in- volving individual analysis would be, STOP REBEL RETREATI WITH BOMBS DROPPED FROM MAR INE PLANES COMMANDER PLANS CONTINUED POLICY OF OVERHEAD BOMBARDMENT AIR ATTACKEFFECTIVEj Political Effect Of National Guard I Mutiny Denied By American Officials At Somotillo needed," the President said.' The speaker also discussed the rela- tive value of knowledge of the subject matter and interest in the student from the teacher's standpoint, statingi finally that our knowledge of the na- ture of the pupil is not nearly as far advanced as our knowledge of meth- ods. President Bruce Payne, of Peabody College for Teachers at Nashville, Tenn., assailed the instiution of col- lege athletics as now provided in an- other speech on the morning's pro- gram. Dr. Charles McKenny, pres- ident of Michigan State Normal col- lege was unable to be present because of illness. The jubilee celebration is being held in connection with the an- nual Mid-Year conference of teacherst held under the auspices of the Normal college. When founded in 1852, Ypsilanti, Normal college was the sixth in the1 United States.'

Bates of the Law school will leave for Washington, D. C., Friday, Jan. 20, to attend a meet- ing which lie has called as chairman of the federal committee of nine whose function it is to study the oil problem, and make recommendations for its solution. "Changes in the Sherman anti-trust law and similar laws of several stat- es to provide for control of the pro- duction of oil by cooperation between producers and at the same time reg- ulation of the price by the govern- ment is the logical solution to the present oil problem," Dean Bates de- clared in a recent interview. Dean Bates claims that millions of dollars are wasted each year by com- petitors in the oil production field who wish to hasten production on their particular lands, and thereby permit the escape of natural gas. In their haste to get all the oil out of the ground that they possibly can be- tore adjacent owners of land become active, the operators simply use the natural pressure, according to Dean Bates, and frequently, as a result of this, less than one half of the oil avail- able is actually obtained from the ground, the rest sinking. All the gas is usually lost. Citing an example of such waste, Dean Bates showed that in one year 250 billion cubic feet i-HOP CHAIRMEN WILL GET RULES All booth chairmen who are selected by their fraternity or independent group to represent them in making ar- rangements for the 1929 J-Hop must call at the office of the Dean of Stu- dents and obtain copies 'of the rules governing conduct at the J-Hop and concurrent house parties. These rules must be signed and returned to Dean Bursley's office on or before Jan. 21 before permission to attend the affair or to hold a house party will be granted by University authorities. The committee again requests that groups of 20 couples be formed by combining fraternities as soon as pos- sible, where there are not that num- ber within the house attending the J-Hop. This will work greatly to the advantage of the group in question, for otherwise the grouping will be done arbitrarily by the general booth com- mittee. At the time that favors and invita- tions will be given out early next week, fraternity men will be requested to sign their booth privilege. These will be compiled and announced later in the week coincident with the giving out of one free chaperone's ticket with each full booth. A few extra chape- rone's tickets will be available at this time. CHEMIST SPEAKS ON CONCEPTS OF MODERN SCIENCEi "The Spirit of Chemistry" was the subject chosen by Professor Paul C. Walden, of the University of Ros- tock, Germany, at a lecture delivered la'st night in the chemistry amphi- theater. Professor Walden traced the funda- mental concepts of modern science to three men: Lavoisier,' the French- man, the founder of quantitative an- IS SUNDAYLECTURER: Man Who Brought Medicine To Arctic Natives To Relate Experiences In Mission Work GRENFELL WORLD NOTED Sir Wilfred T. Grenfell, the man who has made Labrador, will deliver two lectures here Sunday, the first at 11 o'clock in the morning at St. An- drew's church, and the second at 8 o'clock in the evening in Hill audi- torium. Sir Wilfred, better known as Dr. Grenfell, is almost solely responsible for putting Labrador on the map. For 30 years he has been conducting a medical mission-in that coufltry, being gradually able to expand his work un- til now lie has several land hospitals, and a floating hospital with which he cruises up and down the coast dur- ing the open water season, minister- ing to the ills of the huge fishing pop- ulation. Before the advent of Dr. Grenfell the people of Labrador were absolute- ly ignorant of medical, surgical, and even hygienic principles. He has gradually reduced the deaths from Labrador's two great scourges, small- pox and tuberculosis. Ailing people are now brought thousands of miles on sledges to his hospitals along the coast for treatment and cure which otherwise could not be had. The hope of his mission is to educate the chil- dren of Labrador in the science of medicine, to the end that they may breed a healthier race. The work is largely carried on by college students whom Dr. Grenfell draws to Labrador in large numbers every summer. Particularly are they drawn from Johns Hopkins and Har- vard Medical school. From Ann Ar- bor last summer Dr. Carl W. Eber- bach of the University faculty and Mrs. Hilda Ramsay went to Labrador to aid in the mission. Dr. Hugh Cabot, who will introduce Dr. Grenfell Sunday night, speaking of his lecture here, said, "The students have many opportunities in the course of the year to hear scientific men, but it is seldom that prophet comes to town." SHARKEY-HEENE Y IN DRAW BATTLE (By Associated Press) MADISON SQUARE GARDENS, New York, Jan. 13.-Jack Sharkey and Tom Heeney, rival heavyweight title aspirants, fought to a slashing draw tonight in a 12-round match that up- *set the "dope" and left experts as well as spectators sharply divided in opinion. Apparently believing that Heeney's bulldog aggressiveness had given hinm the edge, the crowd of 17,000 onlook- ers set up a chorus of boos and cheers after the decision, but the critics' gallery at the ringside gave a majority opinion in favor of the Boston ex- sailor. It was a close fight from start to finish, but a shock to the critics who had installed Sharkey a heavy fav- (ysrs "There are many students who have of natural gas, a valuable fuel, equiv- alysis, Liebig, the organic chemist (By Associated Press) ; not yet appeared before the commit- I alent td five and one half million tons and Ostwald, the creator of physical MANAGUA, Jan. 13.-While Amer- tee," Professor Rich said last night.-I of coal has been known to be lost chemistry.

MICHIGAN ToOPPOSE HOOSIER BASKETBALL, SQUAD IN HOME GAME WILL BE FIRST CONFERENCE CONTEST TO BE PLAYED IN FIELD HOUSE GAME TO START AT 7:30 Win Tonight To Mean Chance For Try At Championship; Maize And Blue Arrive At Crisis By Ierbert E. Vedder. Michigan and Indiana, champion and runner-up in the Western Con- ference basketball race a year ago, will meet at 7:30 o'clock tonight in Yost field house to inaugurate the Wolverines' home Big Ten season in what may aptly be termed an all-im- portant game, one which should not be at all different from the many close, nerve-racking contests of the past. La'st year the Hoosiers won the I second game from the Wolverines by I a three-point margin after sustaining a four-point defeat at their hands earlier in the campaign. The situation confronting the Wol- verines tonight is nothing if not crit- ical; the Hoosiers must fall. The Maize and Blue vehicle has arrived at ! the fork of the road and must turn I in one direction or the other; if the Wolverine machine can be shifted into high gear, it will turn onto the road which leads to a place in the first rank in spite of early reverse's. Is Hoosier Crance, - To Indiana, the situation is not quite so serious, but the Hoosiers can firmly establish themselves as a quin- tet of the first water by a win tonight. Coach Dean's team was rated more a an uncertai ity than as a great aggre- gation before the season opened, but its 32-13 victory over Chicago last Saturday served as a definite warn- ing that this five cannot be trifled with. It was this same badly beaten Mar- oon team which held Northwestern, conqueror of Mihigan and Iowa, to a one-point win Thursday. In addition to the invaders' sopho- more sensation, McCracken, who scored more points in one game than any of the other Big Ten stars did in two, Indiana also boasts some further talent. No one in the Big Ten can forget Capt. Art Beckner who has ever seen him play. He is a fine floorman and a great sharpshooter, having led the scorers two years ago. Wells, who lines up at the other for- ward, and Correll, guard, are other veterans who will play tonight. The second guard position ha's seen keen competition between two sophomores, Scheid and Gill, with Scheid having the edge. Starr, because of his pro- clivity at foul shots is expected to be at forward at least part of the game. Michigan In Hole The Wolverines, backed into a thicket, are determined to fight their way out of the jungle at any cost, and Coach Veenker has nominated the same five men who started against Wisconsin as the men to chalk up Michigan's first Conference victory of the season. Capt. Frank Harrigan has been shifted to forward along side of Oost- erbaan, with Rose stepping in at Harrigan's running guard post. Chap- man and McCoy, center and guard re- spectively, retain their places. This coinination is expected to add speed to the Wolverine quint, with Rose bringing the ball down the floor and Harrigan and Oosterbaan teaming in the front rank. Rose made a rath- er good showing at Madi'son and his guarding is of such a nature that it should aid somewhat ni maintaining the Wolverine defense as it was last week.

"Hardy was not a pessimist," he said. "He was a straight speaker and an honest thinker, and he would not admit the futility of human endeav- or. "He was the gr'3atest poet of mod- ern England," Prof. Jack went on. He stated that Hardy had the knack of noting the change in trend of thought as time advanced, and this point was shown by a poem written scarcely six months prior to his death. Hardy's most recent' work, "The Dynasts," centered about the charac- speed up the attack and lift- it out of the rut in which it rested last week. It will provide an opportunity for the revival of the Harrigan-Oost- erbaan combination which was rated as the finest scoring weapon in the Conference last year-as attested by the fact that both men were among the first five scorers. So far this season, that combination has not been effective. Offense, which slumped so badly last week, has been stressed in every workout of late, and if this can take a turn for the better while the defense remains tight, Michigan should give the Hoosiers a real tussle.
