Using the most nodern engines of war, Japanese invaders have
been unable to rout soldiers like these who are typical of China's fight-
ing men defending the Chapei district of Shanghai. In all the furious
battles around Shanghai, Chinese soldiers with inferior equipment have
held their groind im the face of withering artiliery and machi e gun fire.

sehtenced to Ionia reformatory for
a one-to-fourteen year term on a
charge of cheek-forging, one Jan.

had heard the last of the Univer-
sity of Michigan.
But, not so! The University has
been affected by the depression and
they are not going to let any
chance of taking in cash go by. So
this week when they published a
list, of people who had not paid.
their second semester dues they in-
cluded Mr. Gardinler, reformatory
or. no reformatory.
It Is .formally stated in said list
that Mr. Gardinier, among others,
has not formally withdrawn from
th gimye..rsj y.and that if he pre-
sents himself at any classes with-
out sufficient evidence that he has
'paid up he will be refused admit-
tance.
