Her concert here will be one of a few to be given here this fall. Miss Ponselle has had a colorful career, beginning at a very early age when her voice had attracted the attention of all who knew her. Her first position as a singer was in one of the old-time "nickleod- eons." Each Saturday night during that period the proprietor would hand her twelve one-dollar bills, her remuneration for the week. Her debut in opera took place with Ca- ruso in the opera "La Forza del Destino." Galli-Curci Will Sing Galli-Curci will be the second ar- tist on the program. Her appear- ance on Oct. 22 is looked forward to with great anticipation by lovers of coloratura singing, of which she is one of the best known exponents. Following Galli-Curci, Vladimir Horowitz, Russian pianist and solo- it with the Detroit Symphony or- chestra, will play here on Nov. 12.

Another pianist besides Horowitz namely Sergie Rachmaninoff will occupy the limelight of the series this year when he demonstrates his musical genius once more for Ann Arborites on Feb. 13.

They are Prof. Ned Dearborn and Prof. Howard M. Wight. Both received notice of their appoint- ment July 1, but they did not enter' the teaching staff until this fall. Professor Wight, who had been conducting field research for the forestry school since last February, investigating privately owned game refuges with the state department of conservation, was appointed as- sistant professor in forest zoology. He received his A. B. from the Uni- versity of Maine and his A. M. from Oregon State Agricultural college. He also served on the faculty of the latter school as professor of economic zoology, where he con- ducted research and wrote a paper on the history and control of ro- dents and the mole. At the Iowa State college he was subsequently a member of the faculty until his advent here. His special line of work is economic mamalogy. Professor Dearborn has had a very varied experience in his field. He graduated from Dartmouth with a B. S. degree and earned his Sc. D. at the University of New Hamp- shire. AUSTRIAN CIVIL WAR lOOMS IN NEUSTADT, Social Democrats, Heimwehr Fac- tions Make Preparations For Strife Expected, Today THOUSANDSFLEE REGION (By "Associated !rress) WEINER NEUSTADT, Oct. 6.- Taking on the appearance of a cit- adel with the rattle of musketry and the tramp of troops, the indus- trial center of Weiner Neustadt, 30 miles south of Vienna, yesterday took on the preparations for pos- sible disorders and bloodshed to follow the meeting of two rival po- litical factions Sunday. With the last minute prepara-] tions of the Social Democrats who rule Vienna, and the Heimwehr, or the so-called Home Defense league of Christian Socialists, who control the Austrian government, for sepa- rate propaganda meetings thou- sands of the inhabitants of the city fled. Valuable property was being banked about with sand bags as against p ossi bl1e bombardment, while merchants closed their shops with barricades and the 443 fac- tories of the city ceased work. Elec- tric signs were being removed from the streets. Under the direction of the chief of police, troops were firing round after round in the suburbs in tar- get practice. The city authorities commandeered the large municipal hospital with 300 beds in case it should be needed, present patients being evacuated," and all doctors and physicians available ordered to be in Weiner Neustadt today. So far there has already been one casualty when a Social-Democrat shot the former burgomaster of Weissenbach twice through the chest. Nine Communists were ar- rested by police on the charge of seizing the meeting as an occasion to incite the people into open revo- lution.

TENNESSEE AUDIENCE HEARS HOOVER'S PLEA TO DISREGARD PARTY GREAT AUDIENCE STANDS IN MUDDY FIELD TO HEAR SPEECH APPEALS FOR FAIR PLAY "No Place For Personal Bitterness," Asserts Republican Nominee (By W. D. Ragsdale) (Associated Press Staff Writer) ELIZABETHTON, Tenn., Oct. 6- Herbert Hoover appealed to the people of the south today to lay aside party prejudices and vote for a president who represents the principles that correspond to their convictions. Speaking to an immense crowd, many of whom stood almost ankle deep in a muddy field, the Republi- can presidential candidate made one of the first personal pleas for support of the normally solid Dem- ocratic south that a nominee of his party has made in modern political history. Crowd Is Tumultuous The crowd was tumultuous in its welcome of a Republican standard- bearer. He spoke on a platform built at the foot of a high hill on the edge of a mountain and the crowd was massed into a huge fan shape of humanity below him. Hundreds of others were seated in temporary stands which sprawled across the hill under the shade of the trees above h'im. As the candidate's car appeared on the outskirts of the crowd a roar went up from the Mountaineers crowded about the stands. His auto was parked on the outskirts of the crowd and he was forced to plough through the mud of the field to the speaker's stand. Launching into his speech, he ex- panded his views on farm relief, prohibition and other platform preparations, but he made no ref- erence to the religious issue that is stirring the southern states. Hoov- er did, however, make an appeal for fair play and good sportsmanship, asserting that "we prove ourselves worthy, worthy of self government and worthy of confidence as offi- cials in proportion as we keep these contests free from abuse, free from misrepresentation and free from words and acts that carry regret." "No Personal Bitterness" "In a contest like this, there is no place for personal bitterness," he said. "A great attribute of our political life has been the spirit of fair play with which fair presiden- tial contests have been waged in former years, and the sportsman- like spirit which we have accepted the results."

The fund was presented to the university for the establishment of an Alfred Cowles foundation for the study of government, in honor of the former business manager and part-owner of the Chicago Tri- bune, by Alfred Cowles, Jr., of Chi- cago. MT. UNION BOWS TO SECOND CATASTROPHE STALKS IN WAKE OF DEFILEMENT OF TRADITION '1 . r IY l 1 Y By Red EdA It was an afternoon of ca- tastrophe. Precedents were estab- lished and customs were broken. The same day which had dawned so nicely and had seen a crowd of almost 50,000 set a new record for a season opener in Ann Arbor also saw Michigan lose its first opening day game in 40 years, and, perhaps equally as disastrous, saw that sanctums, the front door of the Union passed by a woman. Then down on the green sward of the stadium, Ohio Wesleyan's drum major outplayed the inex- naia ar3Mnhin renresentative. after completing one toss that nearly lost him his headgear. But to return to details, it was way back in 1888 that Michigan last lost an opening game. Chicago university club won that day by a score of 26-4. Incidentally the only other Michigan game that' year was won from Notre Dame, 26-6. Twice before that time, Michigan had lost opening games, in 1881 to Harvard, 4-0, and in 1883 to Yale, 46-0. In 1881, Michigan had its most disastrous season also beingj beaten by Yale, 11-0, and Prince- ton, 13-4.
