NOTICES
Notice to All Faculty Members and Officers: Arrangements have
been made with the purpose of having in the General Library both for
present purposes and for future historical value, a file of the portraits
of members of the Faculty and University officials. It is highly desirable
from the Library's point of view that this file be of portraits in uniform
size. Portraits will be made without cost to any Faculty member or
officer by Messrs. J. F. Rentschler and Son. Members of the Faculty
are cordially invited to make appointments with Rentschler and Son
for the purpose. Any special questions arising with respect to the
matter may be asked either of the Secretary of the University, Mr.
Shirley W. Smith, or of the Librarian, Mr. William W. Bishop.
Students ana Faculty: There now exists need for special caution
in cases of dog bites. In such situations the dog should be followed
until confined where it can be observed during a period of ten days.
It is necessary for a student to take the immunizing treatments because
of failure to keep observation of such a dog recently.
Warren E. Forsythe.
Graduate Students: All graduate students who expect to complete
their work for a degree at the close of the present semester should call
at the office of the Graduate School, room 1014 Angell hall, to check their
records and to secure the proper blank to be used in paying the diploma
fee. The fee must be paid before the end of the semester, February 13.
Graduate students should make their second semester elections in
the office of the Graduate School the week of February 9. New students,
o students transferring from other schools or colleges, should register
at the same time. A student planning to transfer should ask the
Secretary of his School or College to prepare and send to the office of
the Graduate School an official transcript of his undergraduate record.
G. Carl Huber, Dean.
University Women: All women students who intend to change
houses at the end of this semester should advise the house head and
the office of the Dean of Women of this intention by Saturday, January
17 (four weeks before the beginning of the second semester).
Alice Lloyd.
First Year Medical Students: Except in special cases where an
immediate report is needed, 1st year Medical Students are asked to
wait until the Second Semester before calling for Medical Test results.
When work on the tests has progressed far enough to justify an inter-
pretation of results, a rather complete presentation will be given to all
those interested at an hour convenient for 1st year Medical Students.
Doris F. Twitchell, Office of Educational Investigations.
Men's Inter-Class Bowling: Each team should call Michigan Union

NEW YORK, Jan. 15.-The stock
market broke out of its narrow
trading area on the downside today.
The extreme stagnation of the
market in the previous session as it
endeavored to break away from the
downward trend of Monday and
Tuesday, encouraged fresh selling
and trading quickened moderately
Isolated strength of some of the
rails bolstered the list a little in the
late morning, but the decline be-
came emphatic after midday and;
losses of 2 to 5 points were numer-
ous. Expectations of the Richfield
Oil receivership, announced in the
earlyafternoon, was an unsettling
influence.
Shares losing 3 to 5 points in-
cluded American and Foreign
Power, Coca Cola, Air Reduction,
Eastman, American Telephone, Al-
lied Chemical and Lambert. Issues
losing 2 or more included American
Can, Air Reduction, Public Service1

and American Tobacco B. United1

point, going below 140 for the first)
time since December, Richfield Oil
broke more than a point in the
early trading to go below 3, or
more than 25 under its 1930 high,
and the 6per cent bonds lost 13 1-2
points. Other oils were heavy. t
The action of the share market
was contrary to that of the bond
list, which picked up under the in-
fluence of further easing of credit
rates. Time money again sagged
with the longer maturities down to
the lowest levels of half a century
or more. Call money held at 1 1-2
at the loan desk, with virtually no
demand. There was a brisk invest-
ment demand for commercial pa-
per, and lower rates were regarded
as probable.

Detroit Leaders Honor
Densmore at Banquet
A group of Detroit men and wo-
men, including leaders in the bus-
iness life of the city, last night
honored Prof. G. E. Densmore, of
the speech department, who has
taught them in a University exten-
sion course for the last semester, at
a banquet in the Hotel Statler.
Henry Moser, of the speech depart-
ment, was a guest.
Under the pretense of "evenging"
themselves upon their instructor,
each student gave an after-dinner
speech. One of the students acted
as toastmaster. "Gravestones" were
used as place-cards, and an obitu-
ary poem was read to introduce
each speaker.

SYNDICATED LIOVOR
MAILED, AGENTS SAY
Dry Officers Charge Operation
of International Drug
Conspiracy.
(By Associated Press)
NEW YORK, Jan. 15.-A mailor-
der liquor ring that shipped its
wares C. 0. D. to all parts of the
nation and an international nar-
cotics syndicate that used the
trans-Atlantic telephone to direct
its smuggling were under investiga-
tion by federal authorities today.
Federal agents arrested two men
and a woman in a Times Square of-
fice building and seized records
which they said showed the ring
netted millions annually by supply-
ing customers throughout the coun-
try, particularly in Texas, Washing-
ton, Maine and Illinois.
Under successive names of the 13
& o. Novelty Co., Henry Miller Co.,
and Southern Agency, the agents
said, the principals have solicited
trade for three years from a mail-
ing list of more than a thousand
customers and filled their orders by
express or freight, billing shipments
as general merchandise.
Daniel M. Lefkowitz, Benjamin
Williams and Pauline Paris, alias
Weiss, were held on charges of
maintaining a nuisance.
The narcotics conspiracy was dis-
closed by Assistant United States
Attorney Henry Gerson on the basis
of testimony given before a federal
grand jury by a convict, Jacob
Bloom, serving an eight-year sen-
tence in Atlanta penitentiary for
smuggling.
