Enthusiasm Rises
As Date Of Yo-Yo
Battle Draws Near
Campus enthusiasm' waxed high
last night following the announce-
ment of the Ann Arbor Daily News'
1933 All-City Yo-Yo Tournament.
"Arrangements are fast nearing
completion for the city-wide yo-yo
tournament," stated the announce-
ment. "Enthusiasm has spread in
the city and the tournament should
draw a record number of entries."
Preliminary contests aretbeing
planned and will be held in the city
parks, one on the east side of the
city and one on the west side. The
intersectional rivalry will then be
settled in a final contest. The win-
ner, it is promised, will receive an
award of $15 and will be crowned
1933 Yo-Yo Champion of Ann Ar-
bor.
Shortly before press time last night
it was learned from reliable sources
that the Varsity yo-yo captain and
one other member of the team will
enter the lists.

Black Friday
Today Brintys

Sophomores, Freshmen
Will Battle Saturday For
Underclass Supremacy
Barnett, Merrill To
Lead Two Classes
Climax Is Expected To Be
Reached At Conclusion
Of Pep-Meetig Tonight
With unprecedented crowds ex-
pected for the Michigan-Ohio State
football game and Homecoming,
many of whom will be alumni back
to see their modern prototypes du-
plicating their feats of years ago in
the annual Fall Games, freshmen and
sophomores are confidently and bel-
ligerently facing Black Friday today
and the games of tomorrow morning.
After the unexpected outburst of
spirit Wednesday night which result-
ed in a raid by members of the first
year class on a sophomore meeting at
the Alpha Delta Phi house, members
of the higher class used strategy last
night in isolating first year students
and getting individual revenge on
them.
Wednesday night after the initial
outbreak a number of sophomores
spent some time painting their class
numerals on walks on all parts of the
campus, only to find them covered
with the freshman warning posters
in the morning. University officials
immediately issued notices that class
spirit should stop at the marring of
University or Ann Arbor property.
David Barnett, '37, and Robert
Merrill, '36, leaders of the two classes,
continued to issue threats directed at
the followers of each group, men-
tioning fates ranging from "duck-
ings" in the Huron River to com-
plete annihilation.
It is expected that a climax will be
reached after the pre-game pep meet-
ing to be held at Hill Auditorium to-
night, as both groups have mentioned
that it will be unpleasant for ny
members of opposing classes found
after the gathering. Black Friday has
traditionally been a day on which
members of both lower classes con-
centrated their most explosive riv-
alries, but spirit and competition this
year seem destined to pass records of
the past several years.
Saturday morning the official
events will be held at South Ferry
Field, including the flag rush; cane
spree, and pillow fight. They will
begin at 10 a. m. First and second
year men will meet at 9:30 a. nr.
at the Union and Waterman Gym-
nasium respectively, and proceed
from these points to the field.
New Gargoyle Has
CompleteSell-Out
The October issue of the new Gar-
goyle was completely sold out in the
general campus sale yesterday, ac-
cording to William Bohnsack, '34,
business manager. However, a special
run was put on the press late last
night in order to meet the demands
of subscribers and others who could
not get their copies yesterday.
A limited number of these extra
copies will be on sale on the campus
this morning while several hundred
copies will be held in reserve at the
Publications building on Maynard St.
until 3 p. m. today. Holders of sub-
scription coupons will be able to pro-
cure their magazines up until that

time. After 3 o'clock they will be
placed on general campus sale, Bohn-
sack said.

Renew Hunt
In Lindbergh
Kidnap Case
Wealth Of Data Amassed
By Justice Department
Is Brought Out
To Undertake Full
Co-Ordinated Probe
Roosevelt Gives Sanction
To A Consolidation Of
KidnapingInquiries
WASHINGTON, Oct. 19-(P)-The
wealth of data on known kidnapers,
amassed by the investigation divi-
sion of the department of justice
since passage of the Federal kidnap-
ing law, today was brought to bear
upon the 20-month. old Lindbergh
baby kidnaping and murder inquiry.
Prompted by recent successes in
arresting and prosecuting kidnapers,
the justice department will under-
take a fuller, co-ordinated investiga-
tion of the abduction of the infant
son of Col. Charles A. Lindbergh.
The move was sanctioned by Pres-
ident Roosevelt as following his poli-
cy of consolidating kidnaping inquir-
ies under the justice department.
The action followed disclosure that
Frank Wilson, an income tax inves-
tigator working on the case, had been
withdrawn this week by Elmer L.
Irey, chief of the internal revenue
bureau's intelligence unit.
Attorney-General Cummings, fol-
lowing a conference with the Presi-
dent, directed J. Edgar Hoover, head
of the investigation division of the
justice department, to take charge
of the federal activity in the Lind-
bergh case.
The change in investigative super-
vision was explained dio be due to the
advisability, in the interest of ef-
ficiency, of placing jurisdiction in
kidnaping cases in the investigation
division which administers the fed-
eral anti-kidnaping law. Recent suc-
cesses by the division in solving other
kidnaping crimes wer pointed out.
It has been suggested repeatedly
that some of the major kidnaping
cases since the stealing of the Lind-
bergh infant from his nursery on the
night of March 1, 1932, might have
been perpetrated by criminals having
knowledge of that crime.
Today's action made possible a
thorough investigation of data in
other kidnapings with facts said here
to be closely guarded by New Jersey
police detailed to the case.
Last Rites For
S te ve Farrell
At St. Thomas
Eulogized By Fr. Babcock
For Great Honesty In
Work As Track Coach
Funeral services for Stephen Farrell
were held yesterday morning at the
St. Thomas Roman Catholic Church,
and last night his body was on the
train for the East to Rockwell, Conn.,
for interment.
Many of Farrell's friends on the
athletic staff of the University were
in the church paying a last tribute
to the track coach who had built up
Michigan's reputation on the cinder
paths. Fielding H. Yost, Harry

Kipke, Charley Hoyt, Ray Fisher,
Franklin Cappon and many others
were in attendance. '
The Rev. Father Allen J. Babcock,
assistant pastor at the church, de-
livered the sermon at the requiem
mass, praising Farrell as a man who
sent out the youth of Michigan "bet-
ter trained because of his influence."
Heebelieved the athlete should give
all he had to win, but to lose rather
than descend to dishonesty," Father
Babcock said. "He taught his ath-
letes to fight hard, to be ambitious
for success, but always to be honest
in the struggle to succeed. The
church joins with his country in say-
ing, 'well done, thou good and faith-
ful servant.'

On Class Hostilities
One of the nst enthusiastic
Alumni followers of Michigan foot-
ball will address students at the
Homecoming Pep Meeting which will
be held at 7:30 tonight in Hill Audi-
torium. Hon. William N. Day of
Cleveland, retired United States Fed-
eral Judge who graduated from the
Law School of the University in 1900,
will take the platform with cheer
leaders and members of the "Fight-
ing Varsity" in an attempt to test
the student support for Saturday's
game with Ohio State University.
Judge Day, who is a member of
Delta Chi fraternity, has appeared
at numerous Michigan pep meetings
in the past and has been noted for
his ability to arouse the interest of
the students in regard to the "great
collegiate game."
In addition to Day's address, Field-
ing H. Yost, Director of Athletics,
will give a short talk at the meet-
ing. "Coach" Yost has been follow-
ing the practice activities of the foot-
ball squad with an unusual interest
all season and is expected to give
the inside "dope" tonight.
To Use Slides
Lantern slides will be used to dis-
play on a large screen the words of
Michigan football songs so that all
those present, including students,
faculty members and interested
townspeople will have an opportuni-
ty to lend support to Michigan 1933
gridiron team.
Tommy Roberts, '34, head cheer
leader, and his three junior assis-
tants will lead in the cheering and
will demonstrate some of the yells
which are to be used Saturday in
the stadium.
The Varsity R.O.T.C. Band, 100
strong, will attend the gathering full-
force and will play as they march to
and from the auditorium.
Classes Declare Truce
An added attraction for those at-
tending the pep meeting will be the
first official organized appearance of
the freshman and sophomore groups
that are to meet on the field of bat-
tle Saturday morning at the annual
fall games on Ferry Field. Both
groups are expected to attend en-
masse and officials of the Under-
graduate Council and Union com-
mitteemen have stated that an at-
tempt will be made to see that the
groups do not clash at the auditori-
um in interference of the pep meet-
ing proper.
Dave Barnett, '37, who has been
elected captain of the freshmen for
the games, stated last night that the
first-year men will be at tonight's
meeting "100 per cent." "We are
going in a body," he said, "and we
intend to sit together, although in
perfectly orderly fashion. We will
disband after the meeting but not
until we have thoroughly out-yelled
the sophs."
The captain of the sophomore
group, Bob Merrill, '36, claimed that
the entire class of second-year men
would be on hand tonight at the
auditorium and that they would co-
operate with Council officials in pre-
venting any type of disorder while
the pep meeting was in progress.

Several Old Clas

- For junior classes, there are two
committees that are allotted to each
school holding a junior election.
These are the executive and finance
committees. In the literary college
they will have six members each, and
the engineering school five, and in
all other junior classes three.- '
Sophomores Get Two
In addition there is the J-Hop com-
mittee, with five elective members
from the literary college, three from
the engineering college, and one each
from the Medical School, Law School,
College of Architecture, School of
Forestry, and School of Business Ad-
ministration. In explaining this com-
mittee Bursley said that it is pos-
sible for classes to either elect or ap-
point their members. There are also
additional allottments in the sub-
committees that have had no limit
set upon them.
Sophomores in the literary college
and engineering college were granted
the same two committees, executive
and finance, with six members on
each in the former and five on each
in the latter. All other second year
classes have the same two commit-
tees, but with three members to each.
For the Sophomore Prom the lit-
erary college has 10 members and
the engineering college three.
AUl Chairmen Engineers
The general committee distribution
for freshmen is the same as for soph-
omores, there being two groups with
six members in the literary college
and five in the College of Engineer-
ing. The literary college will have 10
members on the Frosh Frolic com-
mittee and the engineering college
three.
All dance chairmen this year will
be in the College of Engineering, Bur-
sley explained, in accordance with the
customary rotation system. He added
that all committee appointments
'must be made within one week fol-
lowing the date on which a class
holds its election.

Crowd Of 80,000 Expecte

-Associated Press Photo
Expounding the government's ver-
sion of its action at Geneva, Kon-
stantin von Neurath, German foreign
Minister, said that "there must not
be a second disarmament of Ger-
many" and sought to fix the respon-
sibility for the "world's tangle" upon
England and France.
Reich's Official
Resignation Is
Blow To Peace
Geneva Opinion Was That
Hitler Would Delay For
Election On Nov. 12
GENEVA, Oct. 19.-P)-Germany's
official announcement of her resig-
nation from the League of Nations
fell like a thunderbolt tonight in
.aeneva where the opinion was grow-
ing that the withdrawal might be
deferred until Chancellor Hitler saw
what chances he would have of get-
ting something for Germany at the
lisarmament conference.
The first reaction was that the de-
2ision constituted a serious blow to
the peace movement because it re-
moved Germany from Europe's per-
manent peace mechanism.
Before news of the withdrawal was
received, German circles said they be-
lieved one of Germany's conditions to
remaining a League member would
be a remodelling of the League of
Nations system of action so it would
be less of an instrument for fulfilling
provisions of the Versailles Treaty.
The German resignation, like that
of Japan, cannot become effective for
two years and even then the Reich
may not withdraw if the League in-
sists she has failed to fulfill her obli-
gations under the League covenant.
Officials said Germany's claim that
she was not receiving fair treatment
was "sheer nonsense," and added that
whatever Germany must allege con-
cerning disarmament she had enjoyed
absolute equality as a member of the
League.

Pla

Cup Will Be Awarded To
House Judged Best By
Committee Of Four
By JOHN HEALEY
Gaily decorated fraternity houses,
numerous dances and parties, the
annual Fall Games, and the Mich-
igan-Ohio State football game, which
promises to be one of the outstanding
contests of the nation, will be among
the many events that are in store
for the many thousands of alumni
who will arrive in Ann Arbor tomor-
row.
Two silver loving cups will be
awarded the fraternities judged as
having the best and second-best dec-
orations. There are also several other
smaller prizes which will be given for
merit in connection with other events
of the week-end.
Another feature that is expected to
draw alumni attendance is the pep
meeting to be held tonight in Hill Au,
ditorium, although the main body of
graduates probably will not arrive in
the city until tomorrow morning.
Among class reunions planned is
that of the class of '08 of the Law
So great is the anathema
against all things Buckeye that
even sandwiches labeled "O.S.U."
have been a drug on the sand-
wich market.
That was the report last night
from a man who should know-
Bill Mahey, '32, who purveys
sandwiches, milk, cider, and ice
cream to. starving ietei'nity

School. Members of this graduating
class' will meet tomorrow in the Cro-
foot Room of the Union for both
lunch and dinner, apd times and
places for other gatherings are being
2onsidered.
In.a recent address to members of
the sophomore class as they met to
choose their captain for the class
games, T. Hawley Tapping, general
secretary of the Alumni Association,
predicted that a very large percent-
age of the spectators at the games
will be alumni back for the annual
festivities. He added that they will
undoubtedly be entirely sympathetic
with the members of the first year
-lass, as graduates of former days re-
member that they were always the
anderdogs during the time they were
freshmen.
They will also probably see the
zlosest approximation to the spirit
that prevailed during their under-
graduatevdays that has been roused
at this time for many years, accord-
ing to observers who have watched
its development during the past week.
Estimates are that the number of
alumni present this year will far sur-
pass the 3,000 who came for the
Homecoming events last fall, since
latest ticket sales figures for the foot-
ball game indicate nearly 80,000 will
attend, the largest crowd to see a
game here since2the Michigan-Har-
vard game in 1929.

Judges have been elected by offi-
cials of the Undergraduate Council

Vocal, Instrumental Stars To
Participate In Concert Series

Musical stars, both vocal and in-
strumental, and renowned musical
groups will participate in the ten con-
certs of the Choral Union series to
be given this year in Hill Auditorium.
The season's initial concert will be
given by the Boston Symphony Or-
chestra, under the baton of Serge
Koussevitzky at 8:15 p. m., Tuesday,,
Oct. 24.
Lily Pons, sensational French col-
oratura soprano and Marie Olszew-
ska, distinguished contralto, both of
the Metropolitan Opera Association,
will appear in vocal programs. Fritz
Kreisler, "kiig of violinists," and
Gregor Piatigorsky, famed violon-
cellist, will represent stringed instru-

milian. Notable musical celebrities in-
cluding Haydn, Schubert and Mozart
received much of their early instruc-
tion as members of this body.
In addition to the Boston group,
two other distinguished symphony
orchestras will be heard: the Cincin-
nati Symphony Orchestra, under the
direction of Eugene Goossens, con-
temporary British conductor who will
make his first Ann Arbor appear-
ance with the Ohio group; and the
Detroit Symphony Orchestra, under
the baton of Ossip Gabrilowitsch. An-
nually for a number of years this or-
ganization has contributed to the
musical assets of the Choral Union
series.

Regent Murfin Lauds Governor
For Cancellation Of Union Debt


Hearty commendation of Gov. Wil-
liam A. Comstock for his part in the
State's concellation of the Michigan
Union's $260,000 debt was expressed
last night by Regent James O. Mur-
fin, of Detroit.
Regent Murfin, the only represen-
tative of the University at the meet-
ing of the State Administrative Board
Tuesday in Lansing, told The Daily

sation tlhat "without the governor's
co-operation the concellation could

however, soon made it clear that the
building would have to be roofed, and
University officials borrowed suffi-
cient funds from the State to com-
plete the Union to a point where it
could be used as a barracks.
By 1924 about $220,000 of the debt
had been paid the State, Regent Mur-
