Tickets for the J-Hop of the class
of 1930, to be given Friday night,
Feb. 8, in the new Intramural
building, will be on sale probably
for the last time today, according
to an announcement made yester-
day by George Bradley, '30, chair-
man of the ticket committee for
the affair. From 2 until 5:30
o'clock this afternoon, tickets will
be available to all classes, junior
preference having been closed last
Friday when the general sale be-
gan.
Applications will be accepted at
the desk from the general student
body, and the programs and invi-
tations for the junior class formal
will be available at a date to be
announced later by the committee.
Receive Favors Samples J
Samples of the favors which will
be given out for 'the party have
arrived, according to Alan Bovard
'30, chairman of the favors com-
mittee. For women there will be
small black purses trimmed in
white, while the men will receive
black imitation trout skin combi-
nation wallets and letter cases.
Both articles will be embossed with
the Michigan seal.
Plans for the decorations have
been completed, and work has been
started on preparing the special
lighting effects, indirect in nature,
which will form a great part of the
modernistic decoratiol scheme.
Five Orchestras Apply
Bids to furnish the J-Hop music
have- been received by the com-
mittee from five well-known or-
chestras from which group it is
expected that two will be chosen
within the next few days. The
latest development was the receipt
of offers from Coon-Sanders or-
chestra, now playing at the Black-
hawk restaurant in Chicago, Abe
Lyman's orchestra, late of the
"Good News" musical comedy com-
pany, Chicago, and Ted Fiorito's
Edgewater Beach hotel orchestra,
also of Chicago.
Previous to this time bids from
Johnny Johnson's Statler Pennsyl-
vanians, of New York, and Don
bestor's orchestra, now playing at
the Hotel Pitt, in Pittsburgh, have
been entertained. The submission
of the additional offers has delay-
ed the final choice longer than was
expected, but the committee be-
lieves that the opportunity of
choosing from a greater number of
applicants will prove advantageous
to the success of the party.
Students Desiring
Auto Permits Must
Apply Before 1929
All students who expect to drive
automobiles during the next seme-
ster should apply for their 1929
permits immediately so that they
may be considered by the officials
before the holiday vacation begins,
according to an announcement
made yesterday by Walter B. Rea,
assistant to the dean of students,

Before Beginn
Editor's Note: This is the first of a series
of interviews with women students rgarding
the proposed women's dormitories.
I Mary Julian White, '29, president
of the Women's league, declared
herself definitely in favor of the
new dormitory for women now un-
der construction.
"I believe that dormitories make
for a better all 'round development
than League houses," said Miss
White. "Cliques are bound to form
in the houses, and while women in
dormitories naturally will pick girls
to be their especial friends, they
cannot avoid rubbing elbows with
many others."
Miss White went on to say that
dormitory life promoted interest in
extra-curricular activities which is
lacking in smaller groups. She
PRESENT TENTH RADIO,
PROGRAM OF SERIES
Dr. John Alexander Gives Initial
Talk On Surgical Treatment
Of Tubercular Diseases
,OLDEN'S BAND PLAYS
Stressing the possibility of a
method of treatment, involving
some risk, that is capable of curing
or improving a large percentage of
patients suffering from progressive
chronic tuberculosis of the lungs,
Dr. John Alexander, professor of
surgery and specialist in tuber-
cular diseases, last night delivered
the opening address of the tenth
Michigan Night radio program of
the current series. The program
was broadcast from the new Morris
hall studio through WJR, Detroit.
Dr. Alexander pointed out the
methods employed in the treat-
ment of the disease through sur-
gery and mentioned statistics to
support his statements concerning
its value.
"Exercising the Student Body"
was the title of the talk delivered
by Elmer D. Mitchell, director of
intramural athletics in which he
traced the growth of athletics in
the University and the facilities
which are now available to every
student at Michigan. Mitchell also
spoke of the value of the intra-
mural program and of the scope
which it now enjoys in the recrea-
tional life of the student.
Representing the School of Busi-
ness Administration, Francis E.
Ross, professor of accounting, told
of the oppotrunities open to the
student in this field in his talk en-
titled "The Education and Training
of an Accountant." Professor Ross
also told of the work in the school
to give the student of accounting
a wider view of the economic as
well as the cultural aspects of an
education.
The fourth and concluding talk
of the evening was given by Prof.
Ferdiand N. Menefee, of the engi-
neering, school. - Professor Mene-
fee spoke of the work in research
investigation into constructive ma-
terials, and of the value of this
work to industry today.
The musical portion of the pro-
gram was rendered by Bud Gold-
en's eleven Wolverines presenting
1 a popular program of dance selec-
tions. This orchestra is the reg-
ular orchestra of Granger's Danc-
ing academy, a campus institution
since its founding in 1883.
DOCTORS SAY KING ISM
IN BETTER CONDITION:
made the point that if one woman
in a dormitory were out for some
special activity, that activity inter-
ested all the others, whereas in a;
League house, only a comparative
few know about it.
"Moreover, there is an espirt de
corps in dormitories which cannotE
be fostered in smaller groups," said
Miss White. "The student self-
government which is carried on by
the dormitory womenfosters this.
When a dormitory woman grad-
uates she has many friends, which
will tend toward a much better
alumnae attitude than will be
found in the woman who has con-
fined herself to a few girls with,
whom she has lived in her League
house. Because of this esprit de
corps, dormitories give better sup-
port to the League in observance
of rules," Miss White declared.
Next she mentioned the facts of!
better diet and less expense which
.obtain in dormitories. She be-
lieves that there will be better
service to the residents with less
friction, at the same time that the
League house chaperones will beI
relieved of the impositions of the
women living in their houses.
Lastly, with the building of the
dormitory, the Board of Represen-'
tatives which makes the rules for!
women, will have its membership
cut down to reasonable propor-
tions. "At present, there are 1251
women on the board, which makes
it of unwieldly size."

"There are, of course, a number
of distractions noticeable in re-
cent years," he stated. "One of
these is radio. It encourages peo-
ple to be lazy about their interest,
in music. They get in the habit of
merely listening, turning on the!
radio, instead of learning the art of
playing some instrument them-
selves. In former days, for ex-
ample, if a rural family wanted
music regularly in the home, it
was necessary for one of the child-
ren to learn to play. On the other
hand, in recent years, numerous
inventions, among which radio is
the foremost, have alleviated that
necessity.

TOLEDO U. BY 45-12'
Wolverines Outplay Visitors For
Entire Game To Pile Up
Large Score
SMALL CROWD PRESENT
Displaying an effective short
pass attack and erecting a close de-
fense, the Michigan Junior Varsity
buried the University of Toledo
basketball five, 45 to 12, last night
at the field house. About 250 spec-
tators were sprinkled through the
stands to watch the tilt.
Coach Courtwright started his
regular B lineup, Weinstein, Down-
ing, Dougal and Myron. Through-
out the first half, this combination
outplayed the visitors, 21 to 7, the
Toledo forwards being unable to
break through for a closeup shot.
Dougal and Weinstein were the
central figures in the Wolverines
offensive each slipping through

Dougal connected for a free throw
as well.

Cubs to retain possession of the
ball for a considerable part of the
half. Stevens, dusky center, was
the big factor in the Toledo offense
during the first period of play.
At the half a number of the "A"
team reserves were thrust into;the
game. Featured by the basket
tossing of Joe Balsamo, diminua-
tive forward, the Wolverine Junior
quintet ran the score up to 45 to 12,
collecting a total of 24 markers to
but five for Toledo. Walker, To-
ledo guard, made two baskets in a
last minute spurt by Toledo. ,

outs of the extemporaneous speak-
ing contest which were held yes-
terday by the Oratorical associa-

prizes are: William Clay, '29D,
Richard Hewitt, '31, Miss Frances
Jennings, '31, Nathan Levy , '31,
Sidney Lochman, '29Ed, Leo Nor-
ville, '30, and Gerald Wright, '30D.

COLUMBUS, Ohio., Dec. 13-Ohio
State's affirmative debaters de-
feated the Michigan negative team
nere tonight in a debate upon the
subject, Resolved, that the United
States should ratify the Paris Pact
without reservations.
As a result of the debate, Michi-
gan, Indiana, and Ohio State are
tied for the first semester, with
one victory and one defeat apiece
in their section of the Western
conference debating league. In
each debate, the affirmative team
was awarded the judge's decision.
The debate here centered around
the addition of reservations to the
pact, with the Michigan represen-
tatives advocating the desirability
of attaching a Monroe Doctrine
reservation to the pact.
Flays Reservations
The affirmative representatives,
contending for the ratification of
the pact . without reservations,
made their outstanding argument
upon the fact that reservations
would destroy the spirit of the pact
and delay action. The failure- of
their opponents to adequately
answer this argument proved the
chief advantage of the Ohio team.
Prof. R. J. Williams of the de-
partment of speech of DePauw
university, was the single expert
judge. The presiding officer of the
ening was Prof. J. B. Denny cf
Ohio State university.
Are Experienced Debaters
Joseph Nemec, Brooks McCrack-
en, Gail Dennis composed the win-
ning seam while Lawrence Hartwig,
'31, Paul J. Kern, '29, and Stanley
Dimond, Grad., were the members
of the. Michigan team. Both Di-
mond and Hartwig have had pre-
vious Varsity experience. Dimond
was the first affirmative speaker
in the 1927 debate with Ohio State
in Ann Arbor, while Hartwig dis-
tinguished himself as a freshman
by making the Michigan team
which debated Illinois at Ann Ar-
bor last spring.
Dimond is a member of Delta
Sigma Rho, honorary forensic so-
ciety. Both Dimond and Kern are
members of Alpha Nu, debating so-
ciety, while Hartwig is a member
of Adelphi. Kern was a member
of the 1927 Varsity squad and win-
ner of the all-campus extempor-
aneous speaking contest in 1926.
The Michigan team will not leave
Columbus until tomorrow morning,
arriving in Ann Arbor the same
afternoon. Carl G. Brandt, of the
Michigan speech department is
with the men.

under the influence of Buchman,
whose short-lived but rather
famous "Buchmanism" movement
gained considerable headway at
Princeton shortly after the war.
"Buchmanism" Was an emotional
sect, opposed to the biblical "On-
anism," and seeking to end sexual
abuses.
After graduating from Princeton,
Van Dusen studied two years at
Edinborough, and then returned
to the Union theological seminary
where he took his D. D. degree.
He spends a good deal of time
traveling between universities and
speaking to student audiences.
Several previous attempts have
been made to .secure him as a con-
vocations speaker, but it has been
impossible to arrange a date. HeI
is, however, known, to Ann Arbor!

drew's Episcopal church, after
which he met several students for
an informal dinner discussion.
