Just before boarding his spe- cial train at 6 p. m. tonight the President informed newspaper- men who expectantly thronged his office of the resumption of relations with the Russian gov- ernment. Obviously in high spir- its, he read the exchange of cor- respondence to the correspon- dents. , WASHINGTON, Nov. 17-VP)- Maxim Ltvinov said tonight that the results of his conferences with President Roosevelt "open a new page in the development of relations of real friendship and peaceful collaboration be- -tween the two largest republics in the world." WASHINGTON, Nov. 17.- ()- Recognition of Soviet Russia by the United States was announced today by President Roosevelt. sitting at his desk shortly after 4 p. m., Mr. Roosevelt smilingly said that the sixteen-year breach between the two nations was actually ended at 10 minutes before midnight last night. At that time ,he and Maxim Lit- vinov, Soviet Commissar for foreign affairs, came to an agreement on the points that have been in negotiation since Litvinov arrived on Nov. 7. The two were in the White House at the time., William C. Bullitt, a State Depart- ment expert on Russian affairs, who has at'tended to personal conversa- tions between the Executive and the Russian diplomat, has been named by the President as the first Ameri- can Ambassador to the Soviet Union. Who will be the Russian ambas- sador to this country was not im- mediately disclosed. The White House made public a bulky document covering the points agreed upon. Mr. Roosevelt chuckled when he asked the reporters to read it in its entirety. The exchange of communications between the President and the Soviet Government's foremost d i p 1 o m a t showed that an understanding had been reached on propaganda, the right of religious freedom for Ameri- can citizens in Russia, civil rights of American nationals, and some claims. An agreement also was reached for a "consular convention" between the two countries, in which the United States is to be assured that its citi- zens will have all the rights that are granted to the nationals of other states under existing treaties with the Soviet. The convention will deal specifically with the rights of con- suls of America and Russia. The involved question of claims. and counter-claims between the two countries was largely left for fur- ther negotiations. WASHINGTON, Nov. 17- () - William Christian Bullitt, a youthful diplomat of 42 behind whose smiling geniality is a two-fisted determina- tion, received in double measure to- day a reward of years of advocacy of Soviet recognition. Not only did President Roosevelt announce the resumption of normal relations with Russia, but he gave Bullitt the job of ambassador and the task of cementing the friendly relations which the President's con- versation with Maxim Litvinov had established after 16 years of diplo- matic frigidity. In the State Department office, which he has served since April 21 as Non-Profit Sale Liquor Control Plan Is Selected Submission Of Proposal To Legislature Planned By Political Leaders LANSING, Nov. 17. - P) -A plan of control calling for the sale of liquor without profit except to the State was agreed upon by legislative and administration leaders for sub- mission to the Legislature next week. Its sponsors claimed it will "drive out the bootlegger." The legislative council, made up of six Democratic and three Repub- lican members of the Legislature, made public the terms of the meas- ure it will recommend. If adopted by the Legislature the method of dis- tributing liquor in Michigan will be: Seventy-five State stores will be established in the larger communities, to sell liquor at cost plus a state "tax" of not more than 40 per cent. In other communities specially de- signated distributors will be named. They may be retail merchants, hotels, or other established business places. They must sell at the same prices obtained in State stores and may take no profit on sales. Their only com- pensation will be yearly remunera- tion, paid by the State, at a rate not to exceed $1 per each person in the territory served and in no event more than $1,200 a year, regardless of pop- ulation. Drinks by the glass may be served in restaurants and hotels, in cities and villages only, if such sales are approved by a two-thirds vote of the city council or village governing body. The voters of the city orvillage with- in one year, circulate petitions for a referendum on whether sales by the glass shall be allowed. If the signatures of 20 per cent of the number of electors who cast bal- lots for secretary of state in the last preceding electionare secured the referendum must be held within 60 days after the petitions are filed. Members of the council insisted liquor must be cheap if the bootlegger is to be driven out. It was estimated the State percentage can be fixed at a level to produce $5,000,000 to $10,- 000,000 a year for school aid. Drafters of the bill prophesy whisky can be sold in Michigan for $1.25 to $1.50 per fifth and $1.50 to $2 a full quart -if Federal levies are not excessive. The plan for liquor control in Michigan which the sub-committee will submit at Lansing, while not the same as that advocated by a Uni- versity committee appointed by Pres- ident Alexander G. Ruthven, is based upon suggestions made by the Uni- versity group. The committee, headed by Prof. Robert C. Angell of the sociology department, was appointed by the president last spring. It was called to Lansing to help the state sub-com- mittee in preparing a satisfactory bill, and suggestions it offered played a prominent part in making the pres- ent bill. Syn e' s Play Is Well Received By Playgoers Ann Arbor turned out last night to welcome back Edwin Grammercy, who, with his Laboratory Theatre Group from Detroit, presented for Comedy Club J o h n Millington Synge's success, "Playboy of the Western World," at the Lydia Men- delssohn Theatre. Starring in the feature role of Christy Mahon was Mr. Grammercy, and he was supported by May Kil- gour as the pretty young innkeeper, Margaret Flaherty. Appearing as Shawn Keough was Tom Dougall, known to campus audiences for his work here in Comedy Club several years ago. Others in the cast included Elaine Newell as Widow Quin, Patrick Deasy as Michael James Flaherty, and Old U.S. Control Commended BySharfman Addresses Accountants In Closing Session Of Ninth State Conference New Securities Act Discussed By Bane Accountants Must Support NRA Against Selfishness Of Clients, Ellis Says Administration policies of control over industry are neither radical nor revolutionary, Prof. I. L. Sharfman, chairman of the economics depart- ment, declared last night before the closing session of the ninth Mich- igan Accounting Conference. "Despite a color of arbitrariness to the whole program, it is but a nor- mal evolution of our economic life. Every one of the long run policies, the Federal Securities Act, the Bank- ing Act, and the Tennessee Valley Authority, is a forward step to be commended," he stated. The NRA codes which are the chief source of alarm are not nearly as strict as railroad regulation has been for many years, and in their recogni- tion of such institutions as trade as- sociations and collective bargaining they are but sanctioning something which has long been existent, he said. "The Tennessee Valley project is but a single instance of government ownership, but it offers an excellent opportunity to test such ownership in actual practice on a large scale. It has been proved that private owner- ship is not necessarily either honest or efficient," he said. In behalf of the Michigan Associa- tion of Certified Public Accountants, Paul W. Pinkerton, past president of the American Society of Certified Public Accountants, presented Du- rand W. Springer, first president of the American society and former au- ditor of the University, with a $500 check in appreciation of his service to state and national accounting or- ganizations. Balwin B. Bane, chief of the se- curities division of the Federal Trade Commission, was the main speaker of the afternoon session, addressing, the conference on the Federal Secur- ities Act, recently passed by Congress as a control of the issue of corporate securities. Refuting the claim of bankers and financial leaders that the act has ruined the investment market and prevented the flow of capital into legitimate enterprises, Mr. Bane de- clared that "the claim that new se- curity issues have practically disap- peared was made before the passage of the act, and there had been from an authoritative source a graphic presentation of the state of the se- curities market at its lowest ebb in '10 years shortly prior to the con- sideration and enactment of the Fed- eral legislation." Protection of the security investor, the primary function of the act, will (Continued on Page 6) Big Ten Alumni In East To Celebrate End Of Season Celebrating the conclusion of the 1933 football season in the Western Conference, alumni of Big Ten uni- versities now living in the Washing-1 ton district, will hold their annual round-up in the form of a dinner- dance Saturday night, Nov. 28, in the West Ballroom of the Shoreham Hotel, Washington, according to- an announcement received yesterday in the officies of the Alumni Association here. The event will honor especially alumni of the school winning the Big Ten championship. Awards will also be made for the university which is represented by the most graduates. To Register Alumni At Booth In Union Today Plans for registration of all alumni returning for today's football game were announced yesterday afternoon by T. Hawley Tapping, general sec- retary of the Alumni Association. There will be a booth in the lobby of the Union open all morning and graduates are requested to identify themselves at the desk, Mr. Tapping stated, Total Number Of Record Vote Indicated In Campus Poll BallotsI Cast, Though Uncounted, Is Probably Near 3,000 Tabulation Of Votes Is Set For Today 'No Predictions Made Council Officials As Decisions On Issues Undefeated Teams Clash At Stadium Today; Thousands Attend Hill By To Pep_ The largest number of students and faculty members ever to take part in an all-campus University poll yesterday voted on the 10 current issues proposed by the Undergraduate Council on the ballot distributed at various points on campus. Although the total number of bal- lots cast could not be accurately de- termined at a late hour last night, it was estimated that between 2,500 and 3,000 persons voted. Printed bal- lots had been entirely used up by 6 p. m. yesterday and a new lot was printed to take care of those voting at the Pep Meeting. The largest num- ber of votes ever cast in a preceding all-campus election was about 2,200, Council officials stated last night, declaring that yesterday's poll should serve as an excellent guage of cam- pus opinion on the questions pro- posed on the ballots. All dormitories, fraternities, and sororities were canvassed by commit- teemen conducting the election at dinner time yesterday and it was re- ported that every house on the cam- pus was contacted, although some of the ballots had not been returned at a late hour last night. These will be collected today, officials stated, and will be counted with the other bal- lots. The counting and tabulation of the ballots, which is expected to take sometime in consideration of the careful check which will be made to prevent duplications, will be under- taken today and it is hoped by those in charge that results will be known in time fo. Ablication in to- morrow morning's i ,ue of The Daily. No accurate prediction could be made last night regarding the outcome of the balloting on any of the particular issues involved, but the results will be made public as soon as the counting is completed, those inscharge of the poll said. Head Cheerleader Asks Fans To Support Team Cheering throughout the season has shown marked improvement, but there is still plenty of room for more volume in the yelling and for more care in which card instructions are followed, according to Thomas B. Roberts, '34, head cheerleader. In the formations today honor will be paid to Michigan's coaches as well as to the visitors and to the team, so all persons occupying the cheering section are urged to co-operate in making the displays and cheers a success. Hill Auditorium Resounds To Cheers Of Enthused Student Body Oosterbaan, Husing, Yost, Kipke Speak Team Attends Rally For First Time In Michigan Football History The "Champions of the West" were urged on to another football victory last night when the largest crowd ever to attend a Michigan Pep Meet- ing filled Hill Auditorium to capacity to lend support to the 1933 football team. For the first time in the history of Maize and Blue football, the Varsity team was present at a pep session the night before a game, which, in this case, is probably the outstanding contest of the current season. Wolverine coaches, led by Director of Athletics Fielding H. Yost, told the followers of the team just what they might expect when the Michigan eleven takes the field this afternoon to oppose the Minnesota squad. Head Coach Harry Kipke and Assistant Coach Benny Oosterbaan gave short pep talks, Kipke introducing the individual members of the squad, who came into the city from Barton Hills by special bus. They returned to their before-game hideout at the close of the meeting. Prof. David Mattern of the School of Music, led in the singing, to the accompaniment of music furnished by Michigan's "Fighting Hundred." Led by Drum Major Donald A. Strouse, '35, the band played Mich- igan fight songs as it marched to the auditorium and also on the return to Morris Hall. The huge crowd, made up of stu- dents, faculty members, townspeople, and week-end visitors, established a new record in the history of Univer- sity Pep Meetings. Coming near the close of the season, the entire project was an innovation carried out under the direction of the Undergraduate Council, and the students of the Uni- versity evidenced their loyalty by lending full support to the meeting. An unusual and unexpected fea- ture of the program was a short talk by Ted Husing, dean of sports an- nouncers for the Columbia Broad- casting System, who will announce the game from the stadium this afternoon. Not to be outdone by the frenzied crowd which yelled for him to remove his coat in keeping with Michigan's Pep Meeting tradition, Husing took off his coat, vest, and shoes and then rolled up his sleeves before addressing the cheering mob of rooters. 188-Station Network Will Broadcast Game The Michigan-Minnesota football game will be broadcast over 188 radio stations today, the largest hookup ever arranged for a football game, Ted Husing will announce the ac- count of the game for the Columbia network and Don Wilson will cover it for the National Broadcasting Company. Ty Tyso, famed Detroit sports announcer, will detail the ac- count for WWJ. Among Detroit and Windsor stations broadcasting the account of the game will be WWJ, WJR, WXYZ, and CKLW. Radio Commentator Removes Shoes In Pep Meeting Talk It seems to be an established tra- dition that the gallery at Michigan pep meetings insists upon all speak- ers removing their coats and vests before addressing the crowd. Ted Husing, popular sports broadcaster of the Columbia network, did the boys one better at the pep meeting in Hill Auditorium last night. He removed his shoes. Following Coaches Fielding H. Yost, Harry Kipke, and Bennie Oos- terbaan on the program, the radio commentator found the audience at the height of its enthusiasm. In re- sponse to the cries of the gallery, Husing not only removed his coat and vest, but deposited his shoes in the middle of the huge stage, and met the demands of the crowd by asking, "How's the hunting up there in the gallery?" Husing continued with stories from his long list of football experiences, speaking in his usual quick style, so well known to his radio audience. Husing pointed out that the North- western-Notre Dame game had been originally scheduled for the Colum- bia network, but that the impor- tance of the Michigan-Minnesota contest in determining a national champion had influenced the offi- cials to putthe latter contest on the air. Last year Columbia put two of the Michigan football games on the air, as they likewise are doing this sea- son, clearly showing the outstanding importance of the Michigan games throughout the country, Husing stated. The game today is the sec- ond game broadcast by Columbia this year, the same network putting the Ohio State contest on the air last month. Husing and his assistant, Les Quaily, will send a play by play ac- count of the game over the entire network of the Columbia Broadcast- ing System. To Honor Rice With Reception Next Sunday Appearance Of Pulitzer1 Prize Winner Is Secured By Hillel Players A special reception will be held in honor of Elmer Rice, noted play- wright, following his lecture Sunday night in the Lydia Mendelssohn The- atre, when he will speak on "The Fu- ture of the Theatre." Members of the English department, Comedy Club, and Play Production have been invited as special guests, it was an- nounced. He will be introduced by Prof. O. J. Campbell of the English department. Mr. Rice is coming to Ann Arbor through special arrangements by the Hillel Players as their initial presen- tation of the year. He is well known for his Pulitzer Prize winning play in 1929, "Street Scene," which ap- peared both on the stage and on the screen. According to dramatic authorities, Mr. Rice is without question one of the two most eminent playwrights in America. His plays, notably "On Trial," "For the Defense," "Coun- Meeting Michigan Is Prepared To Defend Titular Ho p e s Against Traditional Foe Changes In Lineup Caused By Injuries Savage Will Be Out Of Lineup; Kowalik And Wistert Slightly Hurt By ALBERT H. NEWMAN Ready to fight desperately in de- fense of a Big Ten and National title and to preserve an undefeated sea- son record, Michigan's great Wolver- ine eleven will take the Stadium field at 2 p. in. today against Minnesota's strong challengers. Every Gopher contest in the past six years has been a classic; the teams have been almost evenly matched. No one of these battles has been won by more than seven points. This afternoon's fray prom- ises to be no exception. Dogged by hard luck throughout the season, the Gophers have fig- ured in several ties with formidable opponents, remaining undefeated. The Maize and Blue must be the first team to win over the Northmen or the Western Conference lead shifts to Purdue, provided the Boil- ermakers take Iowa today. A tie would throw the Lafayette outfit into a tie for first place with Michi- gan. The Wolverines, rated at the na- tion's top this season, are conceded a hair-line edge over the Gophers, who have the physical and psycho- logical advantage of a two weeks' rest over the Maize and Blue. Wearied Michigan goes into a bit- ter chapter of the Big Ten annals today; the next to last chapter in the title defense. With Savage, a stellar guard, out of this game, and Wistert and Kowalik slightly injured, the Wolverines have their share of cripples. However, Wistert and Ko- walik, as stated in The Daily after the Iowa game, will start against the Northmen although a great many unfounded rumors have been cirue- lated concerning these men all week. Another Shake-up Seen Another shake-up in the Maize and Blue roster looms as Bill Ren- ner has been filling in at right half in place of Jack Heston for a large portion of the week, and the passer appears to be a logical candidate for the starting lineup. Warmer weather for the contest was promised by weathermen late last night, and should the sky be clear before game-time, a huge crowd is expected. Temporary bleachers were up yesterday afternoon nearly all the way around the huge bowl, while a small army of workers la- bored to clear the snow off the tar- paulin covering the playing field, and also out of the end-zones. This early move was made as a safeguard against the delay caused Saturday in clearing the field. Snow was banked high all around the field yesterday, while the ground under the tarpau- lin was still frozen hard. Minnesota Shift Revised With the famed Minnesota shift revised and polished to meet the de- mands of modern football, Coach Bernie Bierman's Gophers will have a great variety of plays at their com- mand. Concentration of power in the running attack is effected by the usual massing of the backfield as well as the occasional use of the un- balanced line. Minnesota is expected to have a bag of tricks ready for un- defeated, untied Michigan. Ted Petoskey is expected to play a large part in both offense and de- fense this week, while Everhardus, "The Flying Dutchman," scoring leader of the Big Ten Conference, is also expected to star. Wistert, Hilde- brand, Kowalik, Austin, and Ward will pull the tightest of defenses around the Gopher attack, while Fay at his position of safety-man and Regeczi and Bernard behind the line will be keystones of the Michigan game.

Bernard Brown Jug Is Trophy Again For Michigan-Minnesota Game By DAVID G. MACDONALD The football game today between Michigan and Minnesota will have as its goal for the first time in many years the genuine "Little Brown Jug'' which has had such a hectic history in its 30 years of existance. There are many conflicting stories as to the original purpose of this re- ceptacle, which was purchased by Mr. Thomas B. Roberts, '04, who was then student manager of the team. One theory maintains that its purchase in Minneapolis in 1903 was for the pur- pose of carrying pure water from the hotel at which the team was staying to the field to preclude any attempt by the ardent Minnesota fans to tamper with or dope the water . It was one of Fielding H. Yost's "point a minute" teams which feared the tampering. Another story as to the jug's origin maintains that a change in water was considered dangerous to the welfare of the team. At its original inception, the "Little Brown Jug" was neither little nor brown. It was an exceptionally large, plain crockery jug of about five gal- lons capacity, according to Mr. Rob- it as a trophy for his University. Later the idea developed that the vic- toriousteam would have possession of the jug. Several years ago the jug was stolen, but it turned up the following year in time for the game. There was much doubt at the time as to the authenticity of the article, but at least it closely resembled the original. Since this "doubtful" jug has been the trophy, Michigan has 'lost no games to Minnesota. Mr. Roberts thought this jug was not large enough to be the original one, its capacity being limited to about three gallons instead of five. With the discovery of the genuine jug in the bushes near the Dental School last summer, the story came out as to how the substitution had been maneuvered. Football author- ities had considered it "impossible to hold a Michigan-Minnesota game without the accompanying interest which the "Little Brown Jug" fur- nished. Consequently, they painted the spurious one with the "M's" and scores from photographs of the orig-
