By Clarence Edelson
Cornell's "Big Red" track team, the
winner of the major intercollegiate
championship games of the East, and
Coach Steve Farrell's "green" Michi-
gan squad, beaten in its only meet of
the sea-son, will compete tonight at
Ithaca in the seventeenth dual en-
counter since 1902 between athletes
representing the rival institutions.
The Wolverines have won an even
dozen times.
Injuries to Captain Spelman, holder
of the dual meet record in the 75
yard low hurdles and an almost cer-
tain winner of the 440 yard dash,
have considerably weakened the po-
tentialities of Coach Jack Moakley 's
squad which until the accident was
generally conceded more than an even

Addition To Exhibit
An attendance which wa's estimated
conservatively as between 7,000 and
9,000 persons thronged the College ofI
Engineering during the first day of
the Open House which opened yester-
day and will end tonight. It was im-
possible to make an exact count of
the crowds present during the day, due
to the fact that there was no set ron-
tine which the people were required
to follow to observe all of the exhi-
bits. It is expected that the attend-
ance today will 'show a substantial in-
crease over that of yesterday.
Much interest was exhibited in all
the exhibits,'- particularly those dis-
playing models and the operation of
mechanisms. The wind tunnel in the!
ba'sement of the East Engineering
building was run continually from 1
o'clock in the afternoon as was the
naval' tank, the dynamo laboratory,
the Baltimore -and Ohio exhibit of
model locomotives, the cut away Buick
chassis, and other displays. Much in-
terest was evinceed in the film fur-
nished by the Baltimore and Ohio rail-
road, "The Fair of the Iron Horse,"
and the models set up by the depart-
ment of highway engineering, includ-,
ing a model countryside and miniature
road machinery, drew large crowds.
Irrigation Model Of Interestr
An excellent model that was not'
previously announced, that of a minia-

siderable interest with its tiny water-
falls and power units.

Michigan's greatest strength lies in

Prospects for the lowering of the

pecially inasmuch as the Drill hall

I LANSING, March 23-Joseph W.
Fordney, of Saginaw, was looked upon
in state circles today as the one most
likely to be ctosen by GovernorGreen
to he-ad the way out of the political
confusion caused by the death of Sen-
ator Woodbridge N. Ferris.
i ~Is Generally Accepted-
Although the governor, who is con-
fronted with the most pu'zzling !olit-
ical situation of his tenure, will not
appoint a successor to Senator Ferris
for several days, the belief that Ford-
ney will be the next United States
senator was the most generally ac-
cepted of the possibilities discussed.
I Virtually without exception state of-
ficials gave Fordney the leading
chance.
Senator Ferris' death, coming as it
did upon the verge of a senatorial
campaign in which two or more of
the governor's close political and per-
sonal friends may engage, brought
Governor Fred Green face to face with
the eventuality which his friends have

ture.
At this banquet, Carl Brandt, of the

attend that. Saturday afternoon there
will be a track and a tennis meet at

ORGANIZED ON UNIVERSITY CAMPUS
Editor's Note: This is the seventeenth
a series of feature artiles on campus in
stitutions intended todOvelop their his-
tory and major principles or organization
and management.
Sphinx and Triangles, junior honor
societies of the Colleges of Literature,
Science, and the Arts and 'of the
Colleges , of Engineering and Archi-
tecture, respectively, stand in approx-
imately the same position in regard to
the junior classes as Michigamua,
Druids, and Vulcans do to the sen-
iors. Sphinx, founded in 1907, was
the third honor society on the Michi-
gan campus, while Triangles, found-
ed in the same year, followed soon
after.
Triangles is an organization of jun-
ior engineers who have shown them-
selves proficient in school activities
as well as in scholastic work. The
group seeks to reward, by member-
ship, those men who have shown that

literary college, was founded along
mubh the same lines at approximately
the same time, and selects its mem-I
hers on somewhat the same basis. In
Sphinx, however, an effort is made to
include members not only who have
accomplished notable achievements in
campus activities, but men who show
the most promise of continuing in
prominence during their 'senior year.
Sphinx, as Triangles, is self-per-
petuating, and like Triangles, chooses
ten men each spring and ten in the
fall. The Sphinx initiation is held
in the spring and fall, when the men
are fastened on their backs on a dray
for a journey across "the burning
sands," furnished in the form of pad-
dies in the hands of members and,
'alumni. During their journey they
are conducted through the engineer-
ing arch, where the Triangle neo-
