ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, SATURDAY, 'NOVEMBER 10, 1928 PRICE FIVE IO0ARD OF REGENTS AWARDS $12000 ANNUALLY FOR 2 YEARS CREATES FELLOWSHIPS Action Made Public By President Little At Alumni Banquet In Washington Twelve thousand dollars, the an- inta1 appropriation for the next tw o years for the creation of sev- eral alumni fellowships which was made by the Board of Regents at its October meeting as the first. step towards the proposed Alumni xniversty, was formally announced tor the first time last night at the Natonal Alumni dinner at the Mgayflower hotel in Washington D.C., by President Clarence Cook Little, originator of the alumni col- lege Idea at Michigan. More than two hundred alumni 0rom all over the country were present at the dinner which was auflange by the University of Micigan club of Washington for all those alumni who plan to at- teod he Michigan-Navy football sane this afternoon in Baltimore. scott- Turner, president of the Washington club introduced Regent 4mes E. Murfin, '96L, the toast- iter of the affair who in turn initroduced the speakers, including E T.;Ottoway, president of the University of Michigan Alumni taseiation, who spoke for the al- umn4i association. Coach Fielding . Yost, and President Little were the other principal speakers. Wiat the Board appropriation announced by President Little real- Smeans is that the Alumni Uni- virsnf that he suggested a year gwill probably be on a firm ing basis by February, and that hgan has made one of the first ps in solving the greatest prob- ien of the modern university, that bringing the graduate in closer 6oztact with the University after his graduation and enabling him to ontinue his education in impor-. taut. matters after he is oitr of choo. 'Essentially, the Alumni univer- sity plan aims to create co-opera- tion betwen the University and her graduates in two ways. First there are benefits to be received by the University in the way of alumni support, gifts, help, advice; then, I there is also the desire to bring the University more actively to the al- umni. The ten-year program which is already well under way with the building of the first dormitories this year and the organization of the Alumni association promise to fulfill the first part of the univer- slty plan. ,Although no definite action or program has been arranged to take advantage of the recent Board ac- tion, It is understood that Presi- : dent Little and the officers of the Alumni association intend to select several alumni who as the Michi- gan Alumnus of this week explains it, "will act as liaison officers be- tween the graduates who are seek- ing to establish contacts with the University and the Faculty." Their duties will consist mainly of en- couraging the continuation of these fellowships on an intellectual basis so as to give alumni an oppor- tunity to revive their waning in-' spiration and desire for knowledge after they have left school. The question of alumni -relations is playing a big part in modern education and is becoming one of the biggest problems of the univer- sity administration of today. A meeting of representatives of the American Alumni council and the American Association for Adult Ed- ucation held at Vassar col- lege recently, discussed the ques- tion of whether there was any ob- ligation on the part of the Univer- sity to continue educating its stu- dents after they have left school. The meeting at Vassar decided that the university very definitely owed something to its graduates and should continue the education- al process as far as possible. This action served as impetus to the Michigan plan.

The new pamphlet will contain, among other things, pictures of the interior of the Press building and a description of aims and func- tions as well as the opportunities for experience offered on the major student publications which are under the supervision of the.Board in Control of Student publication' and have their offices in the Press building. Occupying the major center of interest in the booklet will be comments upon the three ranking publications upon the campus the Gargoyle, the campus humor magazine, the Michiganensian, an- nual publication of the senior classes, and The Michigan Daily, the campus newspaper. Freshman are eligible to try out for work upon the publications during their second semester of residence on the campus. Because of the fact that the larger number of freshmen enter in the fall, reg- HOUGHTON ToRESUME POST AS AMBASSADOR Will Remain In Great Britain Until End Of Present Administration LOSES STATE ELECTION (By Associated Press) WASHINGTON,,Nov. 9.-Alanson B. Houghton announced today fol- lowing a conference with President Coolidge that he will sail next Wednesday to resume his post as ambassador to Great Britain prob- bly for the remainder of the pres- ent administration. Mr. Houghton said that his re- signation, which was made effec- tive at the president's pleasure, was still in Mr. Coolidge's hands, but that it had been agreed, fol- lowing his defeat for United States Senator from New York, that he return to represent this country at the court of St. James. Shortly after Mr. Houghton's nomination as Republican candi- date for senator from New York, he tendered his resignation, Mr. Coolidge acknowledged receipt of Mr. Houghton's communication and in the same letter expressed regrets for the loss of the latter's services thereby creating the im- pression that he had accepted the resignation. The fact that. Mr. Houghton is returning to his post is accepted as showing that President Coolidge did not accept the resignation. Towns Are Destroyed By Streams of Hot Lava (By Associated Press) CATANIA, Sicily, Nov. 9-Another Sicilian villege has fallen to the all-devouring lava.which continues to pour from Mount Etna. Nunzi- ata tonight was undergoing the same fate as its neighbor village, Maxcali, which already was com- pletely burned and buried under the advancing flow. Only a part of Nunziata had'been destroyed, but it had been com- pletely evacuated by its inhabitants t who feared the same fate that overtook three men of Maxcali whose escape was cut off, while they slept, by the advancing lava stream. The smoking volcano as wmore active tonight than for some hours. The principal fiery stream that it had disgored had reached a point of only 60 meters from the rail-; way station of Maxcali and was proceeding inexorably onward at a rate of 50 meters an hour. The northern stream of lava had joined this larger and central one. The third and southernmost stream was within 100 feet of the railway bridge at Giarre and advancing at the rate of 32 feet a hour. The spirits of the Sicilians, who have dwelt for generations in the shadows cast by the giant who per-I iodically has aroused itself to real) destruction, are undaunted. The in- habitants of . Maxcali have been comforted by the government's promise to rebuild their town. Pass Books To Admit ular tryout periods are conducted shortly after the beginning of the .spring semester each year and ex- tend over the larger portion of the semester. The editorial and the business staffs of each of the publication' conduct tryouts at this time. Thc work they offer includes actual ex- perience in selling advertising, writing advertising copy, account- ing, bookkeeping, and in the prob- lems of sales and distribution witi- the business staffs; and an oppor tunity for expression in virtually every kind of editorial work. In this field, The Daily offers perhaps the widest opportunities as its reporters cover the entire campus each day and have oppor- tunities to gain experience in the writing of editorial comment aE well as in the preparation of crit- icisms of music, drama, and books PRESIDENT APPOINTS S E NIO CMMTTE Lists Published Yesterday Only Partially Complete Were APPOINTMENTS ARE FINAL Final announcements of com- mittees of the senior class of the literary college were made yester- day by Kenneth C.

HOUVIE SPENDS0 QUIET DAY AFTER STRENUOus PERIOD OF CAMPAIGN PRESIDENT-ELECT .R E L A XE S BEFORE BEGINNING OFFICIAL DUTIES BEGINS CORRESPONDENCE Takes Long Walks And rides With Wife Over Scenes Of Their College Day Romance (By Associated Press) STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Cal., Nov. 9.-Passing into the third day of rest from the strain of contest, Herbert Hoover went to what is be- coming a regular schedule for the period that will precede his plunge into national affairs as the certi- fied chief of the party in power. After an early breakfast, with the next First Lady of the Land, the president-elect went with her for the favorite walk over the sun-dripped hills, accompanied by an escort of secret service men. Re- tracing their steps over the paths that have known them in their college days, he turned to his desk and she to an automobile ride. Gives Time To Work Unable to give himself complete- ly over to relaxation even in this period of rest, Hoover spent con- siderable time in digging into the pile of correspondence that con- tinues to accumulate. He worked more leisurely than usual, however, in his broad, comfortable study, with his desk facing a window be- neath which unfolds a view of the red-top roofs of Stanford Univer- sity, the valley below and in the distance SaneFrancisco Bay and the rolling foothills of the coast range. The president-elect seldom leaves his home, except Jfor his early morning walk and the after- noon ride. This takes him and Mrs. Hoover down the valley where, turning away from the regular traffic into byroads, they climb into the mountains over a narrow, winding automobile road that twists precariously in and out around the shoulder of the hills. Now and then the road seems to curve into the terrain itself and ahead looms in its stead a perfect view of the peaceful countryside below. Cabinet Not Settled Although the president-elect has given little thought to the identity of the various members of his offi- cial family March 4, there had al- ready arisen considerable specula- tion concerning its makeup. , The name of J. R. Howard of Clemens, Iowa, was thrust today into the list of those Hoover was said to be con- sidering for secretary of agricul- ture. Howard, long a friend of the president-elect, is president of the farm bureau, and was associated with Hoover in his work during the World war. Two - others, Dante Pierce, Des Moines farm paper publisher, and Senator Arthur Capper of Kansas, also have been mentioned for the post, but the probabilities are that it will be many weeks before the executiv elect come to any definite deter- mination upon the subject. OPINIONS The editors of The Daily call to the attention of their readers two things. The first of these is that the sentiment expressed on page one of The Daily of Wednesday morning of this week is by no means the sentiment of The Daily staff. The error is to be regretted. The second is that several of the communications received in the last two days have been un- available for publication in the Campus Opinion column because of a ruling of the Board in Con- trol of Student Publications which states that all communi- cations must be signed by the writer. The attention of the writer is called tothe fact that anonymous letters cannot be published in fairness to The Daily. Kenneth G. Patrick, Managing editor .DOCTOR'S DiLEMMA" TO OPENGUILD RUN Repertory Company To Give Series Of Plays At Whitney, Starting Next Wednesday IS TYPICALSHAW SATIRE Opening next Wednesday night, Nov. 14, with Bernard Shaw's "The Doctor's Dilemma," the Repertory company of the New York Theater Guild will offer a run of four plays on successive Mondays and Wed- nesdays at the Whitney theater. "The Doctor's Dilemna" chosen for the opening performances is an amusing satire on the medical pro- fession, with typical Shavian char- acterization saving the dramatic values, and sharp travesties on the innoculators, the vivisectionists, and the fashionable quacks. In it, moreover, the great Irish dramatist, with his delicacy of sen- timent, has accomplished the seem- ingly impossible-made high com- edy of death - killed his hero and given the audience grace to smile. Finished by Shaw in 1906, the play has had various successful runs in London, Cologne, Berlin, New York, and on the road in this country. The Theater Guild sent the production, which will be seen in Ann Arbor, on tour after a long engagement in New York, and in- cluded in the repertory company many actors who have had parts in the Guild's leading successes. Among them are Elizabeth Risdon, Peg Entwistle, Robert Keith, Bea- trice Hendrick, P. J. Kelly, and Warburton Gamble. "The Doctor's Dilemma" will be followed Monday night, Nov. 19, by "The Second Man," another high comedy, "Ned McCobb's Daughter," on Wednesday night, Nov. 28, a comedy with a serious, underlying theme, and "John Ferguson" on Monday night, Dec. 3, a genre tra- gedy of terrific power. Single performanc seats or sea- son tickets are now on sale by the Print and Book shop, East Jeffer- son. THE WEATHERJ1? MICHIGAN SQUAD GOES THROUGH LONG LIMBERING UP PRACTICE AT BALTIMORESTADIUM By Morris Quinn BALTIMORE, Md., Nov. 9.-With a pack of fighting Wolverines desireous of following up their victory over the title. bound Illini with another success challenged by a powerful crew of Middies who are confident that they can turn back the invader: as they did two years ago, prospects are unusually bright for one of the most colorful intersectional battles of the year when these two teams face each other for the fourth consectutive time at 2:3( o'clock tomorrow afternoon in Baltimore stadium. Two weeks ago Navy fans freely predicted a victory for their team, but since the remarkable Michigan comebacks against Wis consin and Illinois, their confidence has' waned considerably anC evetyone around Annapolis believes that the game will be the toughest one the Middy scheduled. E The game ranks with the Army-Notre Dame, Harvard- Penn sylvania classic as one of the' mos flH I I importantstruggles along the At r JL antic seaboard and tonight Bal timore is thronging with thou DUSIsands of Michigan and Navy root ers. It is estimated that aproxi FIGHTING WOLVERINES TO FACE MIDDIES TODAY AT ANNAPOLIS; SEXPECT HUGE CROWD AT 6AMl Frenzy Of Buying Continues With Industrial And Railroad Shares Setting Trading Marks PRICES SCALE HEIGHTS (By Associated Press) NEW YORK, Nov. 9-The Hoover boom market, which ran into a storm of selling late yesterday,f steamed forward again today onI the crest of another gigantic wave of buying which lifted nearly two score issues to record high levels. The average of 20 leading indus- trials, compiled by the Associated Press, advanced nearly three points to the highest level in history, with a slightly smaller gain in the aver- age of 20 leading railroad shares. Total sales of 4,996,100 shares were the third largest on record, being exceeded only by the 5,000,- 000 share sessions of yesterday and June 12 last. The ticker was again unable to cope with the large vol- ume of trading, printing the final quotations one hour and two min- utes after the market closed. Violent bidding for the common. stock of the . Radio Corporation which advanced $37 a share, had quickly dropped $20 of this gain, and Montgomery-Ward which ran { up $22 a share and dropped $5, provided the chief speculative thrills. Several other high priced specialties, including Coty, Jewel Tea and General Electric, estab- lished new high records ongains of $5 to $12 a share. Committee Sets Date For Sophomore Dance mately 60,004 people will witness the contest. Both teams will take the fleld determined to win. Michigan has yet a chance to finish out the sea- son successfully, despite her early losses, while Navy has an oppor- tunity to even the series at .twc all. Coach Tad Wieman's determined Michigan squad arrived here this morning and immediately took ,up their quarters in the Southern Ho- tel. At 3 o'clock this afternoon the players tested the sod in the Muni- cipal stadium, going through a lengthy limbering up drill that con sisted of punting, passing, anc signal practice. Gembis In Hospital With the exception of Joe Gem- bis, who was left in Ann Arbor suffering with appendicitis, th Wolverine squad appears to be it the best possible condition for thi coming battle. Contrary to the announcemen made before the team left Ann Ar- bor Thursday afternoon, Coaci Wieman will probably use Wheele: at one of the halves with Dahlen at the other, sending Rich to th fullback post in place of Hozer From end to end the Wolverine line will. remain the same as ii the Illinois game. The possible shift in the Midd: backfield predicted earlier in thf week, whereby Spring would re plac Castree, sensational soph omore at right half, has apparent: failed to materialize as Coach Ing ram stated this afternoon tha Castree would start the game. Thi is taken to indicate that the Nav will rely on its strong running at tack rather than on forward pas ses to turn back the Wolverines.- Squier May See Action It was intimated by Coach Wie man that George Squier or Morri Hughes, Junior varsity fullbaci who is filling Gembis' place on th squad, may play an important rol in the coming battle. Both of thes men are capable place kickers an( will be injected into the Michiga: line-up in case the Wolverines ar in a position to score from th field. While the M.ize and Blue lin will hold a considerable weight ad vantage over that of the Ingram coached eleven, the latter outfi will offset this margin in the back field. The Michigan line average 193 pounds as compared to 182 fc Navy. The Middy backs tip th scales at 177, and the Wolverine at 161. Wheeler and Simrall, the Mich igan punters, will match kicks wit one of the best punters in Easter circles, Bob Bowstrom, who hold ; down a tackle berth on the Midd team. In the Pennsylvania cor test he consistently outboote Shull, who is generally rated tl peer of the Eastern kickers.
