Give Addresses.
Tau Beta Pi, honorary engineer-
ing fraternity, held its initiation
dance Friday night at the League
to honor members recently elected.
Names of the initiates were an-
nounced yesterday by Marshall'
Anderson, '32E, president o the
society. Prof. Henry W. Miller was
the faculty member initiated this
semester.
Seniors initiated were Robert .
Barr, James G. Bryant, Harry k

downed.
As in the Indiana game last week,
the Wolveine backs showed mark-
ed improvement in open field run-
ning, although general conditions
of the field made it harder for them
to get away to long gains. Heston
and Pay especially, were handicap-
ped by the slippery footing, al-
though Heston more than made up
for his meager yardage total by
his brilliant punting. Pitted against

One notable feature of the game
'was the small number of substitu-
tes used by either team. Michigan
State, as it has done in several of
its games this year, went through
from start to finish with the same
lineup on the field. The Wolver-

Rubber Company Man Will Talk
Under Auspices of Business
Administration School.
Cyrus S. Ching, personnel direc-
tor of the United States Rubber
company, will -peak on "A Sound
Industrial and Public Relatins
Policy" under the auspices of the
business administration school at
3 o'clock MVonday afternoon in
room 25 Angell hall.
Ching is a very unusual charac-
ter and is recognized' as probably
the foremost authority on indus-
trial relation operations in the
United States. His present wbr'k
embraces the creation and develop-
ment of industrial policies of all
of the units in the 26 large plants
as well as the many branches and
sales divisions of the rubber com-
pany.
He is six feet, seven inches tall.
Started as a conductor on the Bos-
ton street railways and worked his
way through night school, taking a
law course and passing the Massa-
chusetts bar examination. Since
then he has steadily advanced to
the position he now holds.
He has always been interested in
men and their problems and is con-
sequently well fitted for the posi-
tion he is now filling.

Rep. John N. Garner of Texas, Democratic choice for speaker of
the House, brought his annual supply of pecans rvh!n he rettiei wtc
Washington. Ordinarily he has a few in his pockets and visitors to his
office nsually come away with a handful. He raises them on his farm.

Cantrill replacing LaJeunesse, and
Wistert going in for Samuels.
For Michigan Ted Petoskey again
was outstanding for his work at
left end. This sophomore star looks
more and more as if he were des-
tined to become one of the great
flankmen of the Western Confer-
ence before he concludes his foot-
ball days at Michigan. Ivan Wil-
liamson, at right end, played his
usual steady game, although he did
not have a chance to come out in-
to the limelight as much as he has
had in former contests.
Doc Morrison, veteran Wolverine
center, also looked good in the line,
as did Howard Auer, who continued
to play the type of steady game
that has characterized his work
throughout the whole year.
For Michigan State Captain Milt
Gross, Buss, and Vandermeer were
the best of the line, with Monnett
and Eliowitz easily the stars of the
Spartan backfield.
