Broadcasting from the new studio
in Morris hall, the sixth of current
series of University of Michigan
Night radio programs will be put
on the air between 7 and 8 o'clock
tonight, through WJR-WCX, the
"Good Will Station" of the Rich-
ards Oakland company, Detroit.
Tonight's program, which will be
the second to be broadcast from the
new studio, will be open to the
public. Last week on the opening
night, over 300 visitors took ad-
vantage of the opportunity to wit-
ness the broadcast. The former
band practice hall has been com-
pletely remodeled until today the
local studio ranks with the finest
in Detroit or this part of the coun-
try.
While the artists may be seen
through soundproof windows in
the smaller studio, their voices and
music will be presented to the audi-
ence through a receiving set lo-
cated in the auditorium. The pro-
gram is sent over long distance
phone to the Detroit studio of
WJR, and is switched from there to
the Pontiac station by another
phone., There it is put on the air
and is received back in Ann Arbor
instantaneously. Hence, the pro-
grams travel over 100 miles in go-
ing from 'the interior studio to
the adjoining room.
Cabot Will Speak
In the opening talk on tonight's
program, Hugh Cabot, professor of
surgery and dean of the medical
school, will speak on "The Sur-
geon Views the Grade Crossing Ac-
cidents." This' topic was suggested
by Roy C. 'Vandercook, of the
Michigan Railroad's Association,
for its campaign to reduce the loss
of life in grade crossing accidents.
Prof. William Herbert Hobbs, of
the geology department and direc-
tor of the University of Michigan's
expedition to Greenland, will ex-
expound his belief that the future
air route to ¢Europe will be via
Greenland. Professor Hobbs gain-
ed nationwide recognition during
the past summer when his party
rescued the Rockford Fliers follow-
ing their mishap in the wastes of
Greenland.
"Acoustics of Auditoriums" will
be the title of the third talk on the
program to be given by Prof. Daniel
L. Rich, of the physics department.
Professor Rich has been engaged
in extensive research in that field
and will tell of his investigations.
Program Includes Music ...
The concluding address will be
given by Prof. E. Blythe Stason, of
the law school, who will speak on
"The Liability of Passenger Carri-
ers by Motor Bus." Professor Sta-
son is probably the best informed'
man on that topic in the country
today.
The musical part of the program
will be furnished by the University
School of Music String Ensemble
Orchestra, under the direction of
Joseph E. Maddy, head of the pub-
lic school music department of that
school. The feature artist will be

Albert Lockwood, head of the
pianoforte department of the
School of Music, who will play
Etude-Murmurings in the Forest,
by Liszt and Gavotte by Ruben-
stein.

NOVEMBER ISSUE OF GARGOYLE OUT
TODAY WITH FEATURES ON FOOTBALL

Yesterday the big news was the

ber of the Gargoyle will claim the
attention of the campus. Filled
from cover to cover with cartoons

the most spectacular of games, the
November issue of the best in

tempted.
For those whose time is at a pre-

Jerry Ellison, '31, and the well-
known "Litchty," ,29, will produce
laughs at a glance. Text by A. K.

444 ELECTORAL VOTES
After Defeat, Smith Announces His
Decision to Nevir Again Run
For Public Office
(By Associated Press)
Closing tabulations of Tuesday's
election have continued to reinforce
the tremendous popular frte by
which Herbert Hoover and Charles
Curtis have amassed majorities in
states, having 444 electoral units
arid left Alfred E. Smith and J. T.
Robinson, leading in others with
only 87.
The late returns have served only
to emphasize the immensity of the
Republican sweep that embraced
the entire west and most of the
east and also extended in four ra-
tionally Democratic states of the
south-Virginia, North Carolina,
Florida and Texas.
Count Nears End
With less than a scattered quar-
ter of the nation precincts remain-
ing uncounted, the Hoover majority
had rolled up in 40 states. Smith
held a lead in eight others, six of
them in the south and two in the
east, Massachusetts and Rhode Is-
land. Only Alabama, Georgia,
South Carolina, Mississippi, Arkan-
sas and Louisiana, all in Dixie, re-
mained definitely under the Demo-
cratic banner. When more than
three-quarters of the popular vote
was recounted to a total exceed-
ing thirty millions, Hoover was
pulling away from Smith with a
margin of approximately 5,000,000.'
By the same mandate with which it
settled a Republican administra-
tion, the electorate likewise in-
creased that party's majority in the
two houses of Congress and gave
Republicans a lead in most of the
34 gubernatorial contests.
Following a trend established
early on election night, the Hoo-
ver advantage swung steadily along
in every section of the country. It
soon brought from Gov. Smith a
concession of his defeat, to be fol-
lowed by his announcement that
after a quarter of a century in
politics he expects never to run
for office again.
Smith Issues Statement
Expressing his gratitude to those
who suported his cause, the gov-
ernor said the "American people
have rendered their decisions; I am
a Democrat and I firmly believe in
the rule of the majority.'
At his California home Mr. Hoo-
ver relaxed to the elation of victory
and prepared an expression of his
gratitude to the public.
The strangeness of the new po-
litical map painted at the polls is
best reflected in the historical con-
trariness of the Republican vote in
the democracies of Texas, Florida,
North Carolina and Virginia and the
turn of Republican Massachusetts
and Rhode Island to the Smith
standard. Texas was a nip and
tuck battle at the outset but in the
late returns there in the three
sister states Hoover forged ahead.

Michiganensian Announces November 15 Final
Date For Publication of Senior Class Pictures

Seniors pictures for the 1929
Michiganensian must be in by
Noember 15, according to an an-
nouncement made yesterday by the
editorial staff of that publication.
After that date it will be impossible
to have pictures inserted in the
senior section.
Plans for this year's annual in-
clude space for a certain number
of senior pictures and because that
quota has nearly been filled the
next few applicants will be assign-
ed to the remaining space. The

office, after which they must make
individual appointments with the
photographers of their preference.
To date many who have signed for
pictures with the business staff
have failed to make appointments
with photographers. It was em-
phasised by Stanton W. Todd, '30,
senior editor of the 'Ensian, that
Nov. 15 was also the time limit for
appointments with photographers
to be made.
There will be two minor changes
in the senior section to be made

view and your editorial the merits
of the matter in question. You do
not touch the matter of SECRECY
and ANONIMITY both of which are
fundamental as outlined in your
scheme as outlined in the Daily on
Thursday, November 1, and in
your editorial on the following day.
You dodge my point about instruc-
tors having to do principally with
freshmen, for you cannot have
your senior investigators in Fresh-
man classes and have them secret
-not even if they wear false
whiskers and masks. May I add
that I think it would have been a
little more loyal and upright of
the member of the History Depart-
ment "who has been here 18 years,"

In answer to the repeated criti-
cism of Professor Van Tyne con-
cerning the proposed student sur-
vey of younger faculty men, a
statement was given out last night
by an officer of the council, as fol-
lows:
"Professor Van Tyne, in his most
recent communication, is in error
on the following points:
"1. Neither the Student Coun-
cil nor any of its committees have
as yet completed any plan what-
soever for the proposed survey.
Since no definite plan has been
prepared it follows that no provi-
sion has been made for SECRECY
and ANONYMITY. If The Daily

vember in Ann Arbor will be Ar-

story of Nov. 1 was in error on this l
point, Professor Van Tyne could
have ascertained the facts very
simply from any member of the
council committee. -
"2. Professor Van Tyne is
wrong in stating that The Daily
editorial of last Friday mentioned
SECRECY and ANONYMITY as
fundamental in the scheme. As1
a matter of fact The Daily edi-
torial of that date did not mention
either secrecy or anonymity at all.
Professor Van Tyne can verify this,
fact by reference to the files of The
Daily.
"3. Professor Van Tyne also'
misquotes The Daily editorial of
Tuesday morning. His quotation
reads "who has been here 18
years." The Daily editorial read,
"with 18 hours in the history de-
partment." The misquotation is
fundamental in one of the points
Professor Van Tyne suggests.
"4. No freshman will be asked
to report on an instructor. If there
is any instructor with no upper-
