The veteran Swagger Sherley, of :entucky, former chairman of the :ouse appropriations committee, de- arted for Washington to head the .earing house for information to be athered together. Telling Sherley "we want all the conomy we can get," Mr. Roosevelt utlined a three-point plan: First, eduction of personnel; second, con- lidation of government agencies; iird, abandonment of unnecessary nd overlapping government funs- 1933 Undergraduates Lauded By Campbell For Seriousness By CAROL J. HANAN Students are working harder these last few years, life has become more competitive and more serious than before and the attitude of students has changed correspondingly, accord- ing to consensus of opinion of several faculty members. In their belief, students are more interested in prac- tical knowledge and in liberal ideas than they were before the depression. It used to be that anyone who graduated from college was sure of at least a teaching position, and those who entered the professional schools felt especially secure, said Prof. O. J. Campbell, of the English department. Now the undergraduate realizes that there is no room in the world for "wastrels" and he must head his profession if he is to over- come the keen competition that op- poses him; the "primrose path" is no more, but in its place is a sincerity of purpose, he added. More interest has been shown in the last few years in the practical application of economic principles rather than the purely theoretical side, according to W. B. Palmer, of the economics department. There is practice that is an improvement over the previous abstract conception of economies. In the same department a keener appreciation of the problems of labor is noticed in the attitude of thestu- dents and there is "an awareness of the problem of the insecurity of labor," it was said. This tendency toward liberalism was also remarked on by Prof. M. S. Pargment, of the Romance languages department, who believes that the student has become "less prudish" and more open- minded in his views toward life in all its phases. American students have been pro- gressing steadily for the last 10 years in the direction of more sincerity and intenseness of purpose, according to Professor Pargment. Prof. J. B. Shepard of the psychology depart- ment also advanced the belief that the student has become more serious since the war, but a different type of "seriousness" has developed since, the depression. There is more worry, students are nearer the "verge of things" than they have been, and they realize the sacrifice that is in- volved in sending them to college, now a definite linking of theory with he said. Bursley, Lloyd Will Distribute Congress Wets Pass Measure Hoover Scheme "Out" The recent reorganization scheme submitted to Congress by President Hoover appears to be out. Whatever is liked, of course, will be kept, but Roosevelt and Sherley have their own ideas and are now after all the data to be obtained in drafting things into a concrete program. -Setting March 4-inauguration day -for the date when he wants to have the reorganization set-up all pre- pared, it appears the President-Elect is going to include this in the agenda for the special session of the new Congress which probably will be called in April. Hoping to avoid asi much as possi- ble increased unemployment through the new, arrangement, Mr. Roosevelt indicated he would favor either the furlough plan or a stagger system or both to make up for the reduction anding temporarily on the broad jes he outlined, he is not going details until all information -is fable, but he is hopeful of a tc cut in government expendi- that will lead also to increased elimination of some gov- nctions, Mr. Roosevelt s considerable overlap- the duties and activities is departments. eep Navy Yards ut elimination of some ards he said that would corked out, but he pro- the yards could be made ,ce times they should be >lute necessities in na- e.

Lloyd, dean of women for distribution among women on the campus, and contribu- tions from men students have been given to Joseph A. Bursley, dean of students, for distribution among men in need of assistance, the executive committee reported yesterday. The fund, amounting to nearly $2,000 cash with additional money pledged, has already proved extreme- ly valuable, according to Dean Burs- ley. It is being used only after care- ful consideration of individual cases and money is then given without contract for paying it back. However, there is an understanding that if the student feels at some future time that he can repay the money it will be received and placedmback in the fund for further use. The executive committee also de- cided that money subscribed to the fund from outside sources will be divided among the men and women on a proportionate basis. Under this plan the men receive three fourths of that money and the women one fourth. This distribution is the same that is used in giving out funds from the local welfare chest. Dean Bursley is highly pleased with the aid which the Good Will fund has already made possible. Two persons have received $25 in in- stances where without that assis- tance they would have been in diffi- cult circumstances. Gifts of larger amounts than these will be excep- tional. There is a large supply of excellent used clothes which is ready to be dispensed to the students needing them. Especially are there good qual- ity wcmen's clothes. League Dining Co-O) Pledges ees More Fifteen members have a 1r e a d y pledged to eat at the Michigan League Co-operative Dining Room, according to a report from the stu- dent committee which met yester- day to decide on the details of the eating club. A drive will be launched today to obtain the 100 members necessary before operation of the dining room can begin, Sarah Bloom, '34, chair- man of the student committee, said last night. A down deposit of $3.50, which will be returned in the last week's board, must be paid, and each member must pledge to eat at the club for two weeks. Registration will take place at the League from 12 to 6 p. m. every day, except on Sundays. More than 100 members must be registered before Injurinig Drys WASHINGTON, Jan. 27.-(A!)- Rigid instructions on future Federal enforcement of the dry laws, which high-ranking prohibition officials termed a "severe handicap," were approved today by the House. It adopted a series of amendments to the Department of Justice supply bill, tearing from the hands of the Prohibition Bureau its powerful weapons of purchase of evidence, wire tapping and so-called "under- cover men." In addition, the House voted, 129 to 118, to reduce to $8,440,000 the Bureau's appropriation for the next fiscal year-10 per cent below the present appropriation. The action is not final and must be approved by the Senate and the President. The debate evoked sharp words and rapidly rising tempers. Sophomores Publish Class IAppointments Winter Gales Rage Off Both Ocean Coasts Northeasterly Storm In New England Is Worlt i Of Present Year Cunard Liner Has To Return To Port Western Sierra Nevadas'I Snows Claim Six Victims So Far This Year (By Associated Press) The winter unleashed gales yester- day which imperiled ships off the Atlantic and Pacific coasts and con- tinued to blanket the western Sierra Nevadas with a snow which claimed its sixth victim. One thousand miles off the Wash- ington coast the freighter, Everett, with a crew of 35, became disabled and sent out distress signals. Later temporary repairs were made and the freighter turned back toward Seattle. Other ships, however, pro- ceeded toward the Everett to stand by if needed. Off the New England coast a northeasterly gale, which shipping men described as the worst of the winter, tore the Nantucket lightship adrift and drove her out to sea. Beach cottages also were threatened.. Breakers wrecked a coast guard sta- tion. The Cunard liner, Franconia, bound from New York to Boston to pick up passengers for a West Indies cruise' was forced to heave to off Nantucket and then turn back to New York. In the far west the frozen body of Elton Johnson, 18 - year - old . bear hunter, was found in the southern California mountains. At the end of 36 hours of work, a rotary highway plow broke through deep drifts and rescued 45 persons,. one a, woman seriousy li, from snow- bound ranch houses n M "eo, . With nearly all roads in that sec- tion closed, snow fell heavily all along the eastern slope of the Sierra Ne- vadas today, and a new storm moved in from the coast, sweeping over the desert country. The snowpack at Soda Springs, summit of the Sierra northwest of Lake Tahoe, measured more than 120 inches. Light snow whitened sections of Nebraska, North Dakota, Minnesota, Iowa, Wisconsin and Michigan. Four Illinois motor car deaths were at- tributed to the weather. Tempera- tures in North Dakota today ranged downward to 10 degrees below zero. J- Ho Extras WillCome Out On Dance Nirht Official Picture Of Grand March, Other Features, Will Enliven Tabloid The annual J-Hop extra of the Daily will make its appearance as usual on the night of the Hop, Fri- day, Feb. 10, it was announced yes- terday. Two editions of the extra will be printed, one to appear during the evening on the floor and a second, with the official picture of the grand march, which will be sold at the var- ious campus business establishments in the morning and will also be de- livered upon request. A limited num- ber of copies will be available so that orders should be taken out early. Photographs of the grand march will also be on sale within two hours af- ter its close. The extra will be printed in tabloid form suitable for a souvenir of the occasion. Tom Powers, '34, car-, toonist of the Gargoyle staff, and' portrayer of pink elephants and other monstrosities will contribute a pen sketch, caricaturing the princi- pals of the year's social highlights, include the old Maltro himself, King- for-a-Day Jewett, Debutante Part- ner Tant, Money-Bags Rea, and other-trivial personalities. The extra will include official guest and booth lists and stories on the various house parties. Carol Han- an, '34, Daily women's fashions . writer. will contribute a description No Mayoralty Possibility In 1-I~~~~~~* d~U~ l l?£ - C Walz, County Chairman, Still In The Dark As To His Party's Candidate 'Unless Somebody Wants To Try It' Republican Mayoral And City Clerk Primaries In Political Foreground The Democratic party, according to indications last night, will have no candidate in the city mayoralty race this spring. William Walz, county chairman of the party, admitted that the city committee had no candidate in mind who might accept the post and said that there would be no nominee "unless somebody wants to run." The major political battles in the March primary appear now to center on the Republican mayoral and city clerk contests. Robert A. Campbell, Michigan's famous "Uncle Bob," is opposed for mayor by John Nee- lands, retired grocer and former member of the Ann Arbor Board of Educ ;ion. Fred Perry, incumubent city clerk, faces the opposition of L. L. Griffiths, secretary of the Tax- payer's League and Claramon L. Pray, former county clerk, sole Re- publican candidate defeated in Washtenaw County last fall. The most interesting ward race at present seems to be that in the sixth ward where Beach Conger, Jr., com- mander of the Crusaders, will oppose Prof. William Paton of the economics department, running for re-election as alderman. Petitions for Mr. Con- ger are being circulated while Pro- fessor Paton's have already been filed. Wanted-- One Date For J-Hop; Should Dance, Drink Well J-Hop dates may be J-Hop dates to most undergraduates, but todone student the matter is one that re- quires more than passing considera- tion. Here's what it's all about. The fol- lowing classified advertisement ap- peared in The Daily yesterday: "WANTED-Beautiful date for J- Hop and house party by B. M. 0. C. Member of J-Hop committee. Good time guaranteed. Must dance well, talk well, drink well, etc. Write Michigan Daily, Box 6A." Hell, somebody once remarked, hath no fury like a woman scorned, and if the above ad brings in as many replies as its sponsor thinks it will, there'll be plenty of scorned women around the Michigan campus -that is unless he starts a dating bureau to take care of the surplus. So far nothing like that has hap- pened; last night Box 6A had yield- ed only one letter. And that, written on Michigan Gargoyle stationery, didn't look quite on the level. The "Alice" who signed it described her- self as being five feet, six inches tall, weighing 121 pounds, and being cap- able of fulfilling all the specifica- tions. A telephone number was included --21718-and that's the catch. Be- cause 21718 is the telephone number of Dean of Women Alice C. Lloyd, Box 6A is still waiting for communi- cations from co-eds who want to go to the J-Hop, but so far things don't look so good. The depression has hit the date market.

(The London Standard statement quoted Mr. Ford as saying, "The actual truth is that certain bankers are trying to obtain control of the Ford concern." A member of Mr. Ford's staff said today, however, the motor magnate had told him that was not exactly correct.) Withhold Names The officials commenting on the statement declined to permit use of their names. Neither would they at- tempt to elaborate on it nor promise any further comment from Mr. Ford. When the Ford company an- nounced its suspension yesterday, it stated it "no longer could continue production without bodies furnished by the Briggs Manufacturing Com- pany, "whose plants were shut down early this week following a walk-out of 6,000 employees. The Standard quoted Mr. Ford as saying, in a trans-Atlanitic telephone conversation, that "certain of his competitors" were seeking to pre- vent "another Ford car from leav- ing the factory." "Can't Be Stopped" "I know this and I know what to do about it," the Standard quoted Ford as saying. "They have suc- ceeded for a few hours but I am go- ing straight out now and clean up this whole affair. I'll fight them and prove that production of Ford cars can't be stopped.", Ford visited the Highland Park plant of the Briggs Co. today, unan- in i A fresh volume of cabinet specuL tion today, particularly from Wash- ington, brought a smiling denial that any cabinet posts have been formally offered to anyone. It was made clear that Mr. Roosevelt is not worrying about this phase of his pre-presi- dency and would make his selections and announcements in his own time, It also was made rather emphatic that no cabinet choices would be an- nounced before he sails for a fishing cruise next week. FIRE DAMAGES STORE Fire of unknown origin broke out shortly after 1 a. m. today in Deis- ing's Confectionery, 800 S. State St., causing small damage, the amount of which could not be estimated by fire- men, who said smoke and water were largely responsible for the loss.

The forceful emotionalism of Miss Hess' playing upheld her po- sition as one of the outstanding pianists of the day. The scheduled program consisted of Fantasia and Fugue in C major by Mozart; Sonata, Opus 110, by Beethoven; three Intermezzi from Opus 119 and I9hapsody in E-fiat major by Brahms; and eight Pre- ludes from Opus 28 and 45, by Chopin. The encores were: an 18th cen- tury German melody by Kammell; Parodies by Toccata; a Chorale by Bach and arranged by Miss Hess; Allegro by Bach; and Little Sonata by Scarlatti. Miss Hess spent only 12 hours in Ann Arbor. She arrived at 1:30 p. m. from Washington and left for Roch- ester, N. Y., at 2 a. m. this morning. UTAH EXAMINES ORE FREE SALT LAKE CITY, Jan. 27.-G - To add to its knowledge of Utah's mineral resources, the University of Utah is offering prospectors free preliminary microscopic examination of ore found in this state. In return they must submit .specific data as to where the mineral was found and under what geologic conditions. Receipt of an anonymous gift of $1,000 a year for three years, with 5200 a year in addition for miscel- taneous expenses, was announced by the Board of Regents at its regular meeting yesterday afternoon. The purpose of the gift is a fellowship ;o be administered by the Graduate school in the museum of anthropol- >gy for the purpose of studying ab- >riginal North American ceramics. The University is toshare in an- ether fellowship donation by E. R. Squibb, nationally-known drug man- acturer. The sum of $1,400 was placed by Mr. Squibb at the disposal of the National Research Council, to es- tablish two fellowships, one at Michi- gan, for study under the committee on drug addiction of the division of' medical science of the Council. Dr. C. W. Edmunds, professor of materia tnedica and therapeutics, will be in charge of the fellowship here. Formal recogmnon was made of the previously-announced gift of 87 volumes from the law library of the late Prof. Evans Holbrook. Especially prized in the collection are a volume inl manuscript dating from the fif- teenth century, entitled, "Registrum Brevium," and an ancient collection of writs intended to be used as pre- cedents. Mrs. Stewart G. Bates of Detroit was appointed to the board of gover- nors of Martha Cook dormitory for a period of one year. Prof. Philip E. Bursley was granted a sabbatical leave of absence for the second semester of this year, and Assistant Prof. H. C. Hutchins was granted a continuation of his pres- ent leave through the second semes- ter to complete the work in which he is now engaged on Professor Trent's manuscript of Defoe. Assist- ant Prof. L. S. Ramsdell was also granted a sabbatical leave from March 15 to the end of the school year. end the walkout there. A guaranteed base rate of pay was offered by the Briggs Company, but the strikers to- night had not announced their ac- ceptance of the terms. Although officials said there was no disorder, police surrounded the Briggs plant, and the state commis- sioner of public safety, Oscar G. Ol- ander, announced the state police would be detailed to the company's two plants at 6 a. m. Saturday. He said that all employees who desired to work then could do so "without molestation." "Biggest Surprise" "It was the biggest surprise of my career when T was informed last night that 6,000 employees of the Briggs company had walked out without giving any particular rea- son," the Standard quoted Ford as saying. "I have had difficulties in my career, but this was the biggest jolt of all. The result of their action is that the Ford plant is closed down. There is a complete holdup." Ford, the Standard said, declared he did not "blame the employees of Briggs." "They want to work," he was quoted as saying. "Neither do I think any attempt is being made by anyone to force me to place my motor car body contract with any other firm. As for my employees, there is not a man among them that would strike." No Other Comments Other Ford officials made no com- ments regarding the re-opening of their plants, but indicated that ces- sation of the- Briggs company strike would bring an immediate reaction. The Briggs officials, conceding that some employees recently have failed to make their minimum base rate of pay, said the situation was dud to "the rush of initial produc- tion." They announced abolishment of reductions for "dead time" in which men are idle because of the lack of materials, breakdowns, or transfers from one plant to another.
