Activities Continue Today.
Michigan's Press Club began its 12th annual session yesterday
with an attendance which may exceed 250 guests, and with afternoon
and evening programs held at the Union. The President's dinner,
given the visiting editors through the courtesy of the regents of the
University, concluded yesterday's schedule, while morning, afternoon
and evening meetings today will wind up a greater portion of the
work to be accomplished by the group.
Last evening's dinner was featured by an address from Rev.
Frederick B. Fisher, D..D., of Ann Arbor, former bishop of India,
who stressed the need of intermingling editorial and news matter in
the modern journal to bring the level of journalism up beyond the
point of mere telling of facts. __

LYONS, France, Nov. 13.-This
' was a bitter night in Lyons as
workmen thrust crow bars under,
the debris of 12 ruined homes, half
fearful of what they would find be-
neath, as the toll of a landslide to-
,day took perhaps as many as 100
lives. 0
As night fell they had 'recover-
ed only three' bodies in the xuins
along the : Iopo of the Fourviere

under a dozen houses this morning,

and burying men, women and 'ehil-

Police and firemen hurried to the j
vicinity as the first thunderclap of

j Twenty--five of them moved una-
frai into the ruins to bring out
the injured, and were buried under
walls which toppled in upon them
i without warning. '
About the scene of horror tonight
the families of those who were lost,
sobbed as the work went slowly
along. Volunteers were scarce after
that group of police and firemen
had perished, and the task of car-
ing for the living appeared of even
greater importance than that of
searching for the bodies of the
dead.
Engineers called from Grenoble
hastily shored up buildings which
remained standing in the vicinity;
hotipitals near the ruins were eva-
cuated as a precautionary measure.
The cathedral was opened to the
survivors and hundreds of home-
less crowded in, for it was the only
place they had to spend the night.
Cardinal Meurin, himself, who
had narrowly escaped death or in-
jury many times during the day
as he moved about the ruins giv-
ing consolation where it was need-
ed, supervised the temporary, bar-
racks into which he had turned
his church.
As the night advanced and dark-
ness made work impossible, the
task of excavating the debris was
halted, to be resumed at daybreak.

COLUMBUS, O., Nov. 13.-Lillian
Honnald returned a tag today to
the policeman who gave it to her
for parking too near a fire plug.
Coaches, football captains, and
players themselves are unanimouui
in their opinion of the value of
student support to the team. An
enthusiastic student body can often
supply a final punch that may bV
the margin of victory. This oppor-
tunity to show the team that the
school is with them to a man will
be afforded all tonight.

Both speakers, who are well-
known to students and alumni alike
through their many appearances at
pep meetings, alumni reunions, and
graduate dinners in the-past, held
important campus positions during
their undergraduate days. Roberts
was the student manager of the
1904 Michigan football eleven, one
of the greatest of Fielding H. Yost's
point-a-minute teams. Both have
been ardent supporters of Michigan
football and athletic teams since
graduation.

Another graduate, whose identity

PREMIER OF JAPAN
WOUNDED BY SHOT
Life of Hamaguchi Attempted in
Railway Station.
(By Associated Press)
TOKYO, Nov. 14. -'Yoko Hama-
guchi, premier of Japan, was shot
and wounded at Tokyo railroad sta-
tion at 8:55 a.m. today. Physicians
who examined the elderly premier
at the station master's office said
his chances for recovery were good.
The bullet penetrated his abdo-
men.
The premi er's assailant was cap-
tured and identified as Tomeo Sa-
goya, 23, a member of the Aikokus-
ha, or "Love of Country Associa-
tion," a reactionary patriotic organ-
ization.
The motive for the attack was not
clear to authorities. Tokyo station,
was the scene likewise of the assas-
sination Nov 4, 1921, of Premier K11
Hara, who was stabbed at the main
station lobby when he was about to
entrain for Kyoto to attend a politi-
cal rally. He died in a few minutes.
Hara's assassin, Konichi Nakaoka,
a weak-minded youth, was sen-
tenced to life imprisonment, which
later was commuted to 11 years. He
is still in Sendai penitentiary.
Premier Hamaguchi's assailant
apparently is a similar type.
Prem>?er Hara prominently figured
in preparation for the Washington
naval conference. Similarly, Premi-
er Hamaguchi contributed largely
to the success of the London naval
conference.
