Ypsilanti players, will appear in char-
acter roles.

Bursley Supports Merit System
Of AppointingUnion President

"I am very much in favor of the
proposed system of appointing the
Union president on the merit sys-
tem," stated Joseph A. Bursley, dean
of Students, yesterday. Dean Bursley
has served on the board of governors
of the Union since the board was first
organized, and has dealt directly with
many executives who have been eect.
ed under the old plan.
"While nearly every one of the pres-
idents with whom I have come in
contact has been a very capable man,
it has been largely through luck tat
good administrative officers have been
'ENSIAN REORlGANIES
BUSINESS DEPARTMENT
Creation Of New Positions Includes
Assistant Business Manager And
Women's Upper Staff
TWO APPOINTMENTS MADE
Plans for next year's Michiganens-
ian, announcement of a reorganization
of the business staff of the publica-
tion, and appointment of Harry Rus-
sel, '29, and Margaret E. Moore, '29,
as assistant business manager and
woman's business manager, respec-;
tively, of the publication were made
yesterday by J. Franklin Miller, '29,
business manager of the 1929 'Ensian.
This marks the first year that an
assistant business manager has been
appointed by the 'Ensian. Russel in
filling this office will work for the
most part with the new business man-
ager.+
Another departure from custom
which is being made in the appoint-'
ment of a woman's upper staff. The+
appointments to the new upper wo-
man's business staff will be made1
early next week, it is announced, as
will the men's upper staff appoint-
ments which will be made at the
same time.
Under the new plan, five women
and four men will be appointed to
the upper staff offices. As a result1
men and women will work together
at the same positions. Michigan wo-
men will be given more responsibility,
according to Miller, than ever more
in view of the fact that during the+
coming year they will be carrying
equal responsibility with the men of
the staff.
Efforts will be made to bring the
total number of books sold next year
up to the standard number of an-
nuals sold in other big ten universi-
ties, Miller saids The majority of
Middle Western universities, he ex-
plained, sell annuals to approximately
55 per cent of their student body
while Michigan sells to about 35 per
cent.
In other words, attempts are to be
made to bring the total number of
'Ensians to between 4,000 and 5,000
next year as compared to the 3,000
sold during the present year.
As far as is known at present, next
year's book will be more elaborate
than past 'Ensians. It is also plan-
ned to extend to considerable extent
the scope of the satire section.
FLOOD AND FIRE
FOLLOWTORNADO
DALLAS TEXAS, May 18.-With
three persons known to have been
killed and several seriously injured in
two days of wind, rain and hailstorms
in the southwest, floods and oil field
fires have threatened more lives and
increased the heavy property losses.
A tornado Thursday night injured
several persons and damaged build-
ings at Thackerville, Okla., a town of
' about 300 population. Streams in
southern Oklahoma were at flood
stage. Plans were made to 'send food
by airplane to families marooned by
the Red river, which was five miles
wide in places.
Lightning ignited large oil storage
tanks at Midland and Burnett, Tex.,
A three-inch canon was fired at tanks

at Midland in an effort to drain the
oil before the flames spread.
Trains were delayed by washouts in
north Texas and scores of motorists
were marooned.

provided," he said. "The proposed
sytem will insure the selection of
capable men on the basis of ability
Lnd the quality of work done during
the period of work on the regular
committees.
"Furthermore, I should favor any
s,stem which would materially d-
crease the chances for camp; poli-
tics to enter into the appointment to
a position so important to all men in
school," he continued.
"I cannot see where there can be
any legitimate objection to the pro-
posed amendment inasmuch as it will
benefit all who are concerned and
will insure consideration for the qual-
ity and amount of actual work done
by those serving on committees which
lead up to the higher executive posi-
ticns. It is fortunate that the init-
iative is being taken by. the students
in this movement," he concluded.
"The Board of Governors has tried
several times to inaugurate such a'
system, but have not received the co-
operation of the students."
JAPS ARRANGE TRUCE
IN MANCHURIAN WAR
Memorandum Sent Chinese Generals
Declares Neutrality Under
Japanese Protection
MESSAGE IS SIGNIFICANT
(By Associated Press.)
PEKIN, May 18.-The Japanese
memorandum handed the warring
Chinese generals which in effect de-
clares the neutrality of Manchuria
under the Japanese military protec-
tion tonight overshadowed all other
phases of the confused Chinese situa-
tion.
Even the anxiety of Peking and
Tientsin over the approaching tide
of civil war, the business like prepar-
ations to protect the nationals by the
foreign military commanders and the
position of Japan in Shantung, has
been forgotten while official circles,
foreign and Chinese alike, discuss the
implication of the memorandum.
It is agreed that these are moment-
ous, probably more significant than
any Far-Eastern development since
the great war. Among the high
Chinese there is a feeling approaching
consternation, and the idea is ex-
pressed that Japan is taking advant-
age to ruin, the Chinese and to es-
tablish her permanent domination of
Manchuria and to demand recognition
of it. In many quarters neither
Japanese or Chinese; the phrase
"Manchurian protectorate" is being
freely used in speaking of the posi-I
tion of Japan in. relation to that ter-
ritory.
Although the memorandum as pub-
lished in Peking is vague as is char-
acteristic of oriental diplomacy, it
does indicate Tokio's interpretation
of "appropriate and effective steps for
the domestic peace and order in
Manchuria."
The objection handed to the min-
isters of the powers is more explicit.
Tokio has informed the ambassador
that Japan "will prevent as far as pos-
sible defeated troops or those in pur-
suit of the, regardless of whether
they are Northern or Southern, from
entering Manchuria," as such is nece-
sary for the protection of the social
position of Japan in Manchuria and
Mongolia.
HOMES GUARDED
AFTER BOMBING
(By Associated Press)
NEW YORK, May 18.-Police guards
were established about the homes of
Queens county officials after the
bombing early today of Robert El-
liott, official executioner for New
York and three other states. Mean-
while a city-wide hunt for those re-

sponsible for the bombing was ,\art-I
ed, but without success.s
Elliott is saidbto have expressed the
belief that the bombing was the work'
of sympathizers with Sacco-Vanzetti,
radicals he executed several months
ago.

And Senate's Indian Bills

(By Associated Press)
WASHINGTON, May 18-With just
one half of the membership voting,
the Senate today amended the tax re-
duction bill to provide for opening
of all income tax returns to public in-
spection hereafter, 27 to 19.
The action, which came as some-
what of a surprise, reversed the de-
cision of Congress two years ago to
abolish the law enacted in 1924 which
permitted the publication of taxes
paid.
Senator Norris, Republican, of Ne-
braska, proposed the amendment and
it went over at the end of a long dayJ
of debate with Democrats generallyI
voting with the western Republican
independent bloc.
WASHINGTON, May 18-The last

ILLINOIS TEAM TODAY'
SPIKE - SHOES H A V E SLIGHT,
MARGIN IN DISTANCE
AND DASH EVENTS'
HESTER TORUN SPRINTS
Maize And Blue Conceded Winners
In Six Of Fifteen Events With
Chance For Second Places
Conceded only an outside chance,+
Coach Steve Farrell's Wolverines will
engage the powerful Illini track team'
in their final dual meet of the season1
this morning at Urbana.
Although almost devoid of individ-
ual stars and considered as likely
winners in only six of the 15 events,+
if the Maize and Blue men can garner
enough spare second or thirds they
may spring the upset that has almost
become a tradition in the meets be-;
tween these rivals.
Michigan should establish a slight
margin in the track events but the
Illini's strength in the field events
should be more than enough to over-
come any advantage that the Wolver-
ines might have gained.
Favored In Century
In the century Capt. Buck Hester
and Grodsky have the edge over Tm,
Patterson, and Hale of the Illini,
Timm being the only one of the trio
who has been consistent. The 220
should be a reception of the hundred.
- The 40 should be between Munger of
Michigan and Chambers of Illinois
although Seymour may press them
both. Another factor to be considered
in the quarter is "Cowboy" Nickol of
the Illini. He is extremely erratic
but if he is right today he may take a
first. Hal White looks like the class
in the half mile and might beat the
dual meet record. Orlovitch is Coach
Gill's other entree in this event while
Lomont is the lone Michigan possibil-:
ity unless Farrell decides to run Mon-
roe in this event as well as in the
mile. .
Illini May Slam Two Mile
Illinois trio of Stine, McElwee, and
Seldon should take the majority of the
counters in the mile with "Big Boy"
Monroe having a chance for second
unless the Illini runners box him out.
In the two mile the Indians should
have little trouble with Abbott, Capt.
Fairfield and Tockstein. Ted Wuer-
fel will be the Michigan performer but
appears to have little chance of get-
ting better than a third.
The Wolverines should win a large
share of the points in the hurdles
with Cooper likely to break the meet
record in the lows. Jones should get
a place in the lows while Kinney
should score in the highs. Rodgers
will be the Orange and Blue mainstay
in the hurdles, aided by Johnson in
the lows.
With Carr and Miller in the high
jump, the Indians should place one-
two !although Waldo or Falker of
Michigan might spring an upset. The
Wolverines are hard hit in the broad
jump with Champman out, as he
should have had little trouble in tak-
ing a first. Arendt will be the sole
entree in this event, but he should
pick up a second.
Pole Vault Looks Bad
The pole vault looks like another
bad event for the Wolverines with
only Erickson to compete against
George Barnes and White of Illinois,
both capable of 12 feet 6 inches or
better.
In the shot and discus Lyons should
have little trouble in taking two firsts
with Kimmel and Allman close behind
him. Kimmel has the advantage over
Alman in the shot while it is just
the opposite in the discus. In the
shot Poorman may get a third while
Carlson should take at least third in
the discus.

Convention Delegates; Walsh's
ame Still On Ballot
(By Associated Press)
PORTLAND, Ore., May 18.-Citi-
zens of Oregon exercised their fran-
chise today over the heaviest primary
election ballot since the last presi-
dential year,, ;1924. Fair weather
brought out a big vote.
Total registration in the 1,842 pre-
cincts in the state was 317,491 of
which 222,139 registered as Republi-
cans and 83,303 as Democrats.
Herbert Hoover was the sole can-
didate on the Republican ticket for
the presidential nomination. All the
Republican candidates seeking to be
delegates to the national convention
were pledged to Hoover except one.
who had declared for Lowden, and
one who favored a government liquor
control declaration by the Republi-
can party. Thirteen delegates are to

gates to the Democratic national con,
vention although the name of Sen.

ed on the ballot after his withdrawal
from the race.
MUSIC FESTIVAL ENDS
WITH CONCERTS TODAY

Before the House took up the defic-
iency bill, which measure invariably
heralds the closing hours of congres-
sional sessions, it rolled the commit-
tee reapportionment plan aside to fix
delegations in the House on the basis
of the estimated 1930 census back to
the committee by a vote of 186 to
185. The bill involves shifting 23
House seats away from 17 states to
give them to 11 other states; but
it is dead for this session.
Coolidge Vetoes More Bills
WASHINGTON, May 18.-President
Coolidge notified Congress today that
he had vetoed eight recently passed
bills of minor character and as soon
as the news reached the Senate the
authors of two of the bills rejected
served notice that they would ask for
votes to override the President.
The senators were Oddie, Republi-
can, Nevada, author of a measure to
appropriate $3,500,000 for roads on
public domain and on Indian reser-
vations; and Jones, Republican, Wash-
ington, author ofsa billtto permit In-
dians in his state to file claims
against the government in courts of
claims.
The other six vetoed measures orig-
inated in the House. That chamber
was busily engaged when the Presi-
dent's message arrived and its reading
was put off until tomorrow. Two of
the House measures related to postal
employees. One would have granted
to those assigned to night duties an
additional 10 per cent of their hourly
pay.

1871 when it was first presented be-
fore the Khedive of Egypt, for whom
it had been written. It is known es-
pecially for its special chorus effects,

tharmonies of scenes in which the high
priestess appears with the priestesses
and the priests. The scenes for the
opera take place in Egypt and the
action is in the days of the Pharaohs.

AMERICAN MARINES TRACING
DOWN REBEL SLAYERS OF
COMRADE IN ARMS
CAPT. HUNTER WOUNDED
Fighting Between Marines And Rebels
Is Most Severe Skirmish Since
Combats Last February
(By Associated Press)
MANAGUA, Nicaragua, May 18 --
Pushing their way through the jungles
of the north, American marines today
were tracing down the rebel slayers of
i comrade in arms.
In the most severe combat since
Feb. 27, one marine and one Nica-
raguan National Guardsman were kill-
d and the commanding officer of the
oatrol, Cappt. Robert S. Hunter, of
Kansas, and another marine, were
wounded.
Sixty to seventy-five insurgents and
twenty-five marines and ten guards-
men took part in the clash, which
occurred near Paso Real, 45 miles
northeast of Jinotega and across the
Cua river.
Fighting against odds, the marines
killed five rebels , and wounded five.
The insurgents were under Jose Leon
Diaz, who has had previous revolu-
tionary experience and is reputed to
be a Honduran who has joined the
cause of Gen. Augustino Sandino.
The marine patrol was isolated.
Medical and surgical supplies were
dropped to them by an airplane squa-
dron under Capt. Robert ' A. Archi-
bald. The names of the enlisted men
who were casualties were not learn-
ed.
Two relief columns were rushed
from Jinotego toward the region,
which is thickly forested and has been
little explored. These marines, under
Maj. Keller E. Rockey of Indiana, were
to assist the wounded and take up the
pursuit of the rebels. The wounded
will be sent to Quilali and then evacu-
ated to Managua by airplane. Brigade
headquarters stated that they believed
Capt. Hunter's patrol was not in a
serious predicament.
Until word of the clash reached Ma-
nagua, it was not generally known
that it had pushed so far eastward
from Jinotega.. These patrols have
been chasing armed and organized
outlaws into practically unexplored
regions. Brigade headquarters be-
lieved that Sandino has retired to the
central part of the department of 1i
notega, a region nearly inaccessible.
