Dangerous rioting, during which the lives of several guards were threatened, necessitated armed guards

guards were forced to resort to tear gas and guns before the rioters were finally quieted. According to the
prison report following, the convicts had refused to leave the mess hal because of dissatisfaction with the

is expected that, immediately fol-

gation, dental schools throughout
the nation will'have a uniform sys-
tem of preparatory work. At pres-
ent there are three distinct curri-

of preparatory work and three years;
of professional study. Other sys-

the committee's expectations,
pite the unfavorable weather

Yesterday's meeting commenced
with an informal round table dis-.
cussion of various city zoning plans,
led by Jacob L. Crane of Chicago.I
Walter H. Blucher, secretary to theI
city plan commission of the city
of Detroit addressed the delegates
on "City Planning Legislation." Fol-
lowing Mr. Blucher's talk, Mr. Smith
spoke briefly to the officials con-,
cerning the work of a city planning
conference. The meeting was con-
cluded with the luncheon discus-
sion.
Resolutions Passed.
Several resolutions were passedI
by the group of city planners. The
delegates unanimously decided to
develop the group into a state city
I planning organization for the pur-
pose of advancing city planning
and Zoning. Concerning the for-!
mation of this organization, Mr.
Smith stated that, "This is a step
toward a new era of city planning
in this state and isl ,ertain to be a
tremendous influen'ce in stimulat-
ing city planning activities inMich-
igan." Prof. Arthur W. Bromage of
the political science department,'
and acting director of the course
in municipal administration, stated.
concerning the conference that, "It
was an excellent plan in view of the
need of city planning legislation in
this state. Such a conference as
this is an admirable step forward
a better type of city planning in
Michigan."
