Routine matters occupied the at- tention of the members of the Board of Regents in their February meet- ing held yesterday afternoon. A num- ber of appointments were made, gifts accepted, and recommendations acted upon. The largest monetary gift accepted, $4,000, came from the University of Michigan Club of Pittsburgh as the first remittance toward the estab- lishment of a trust fund to be known as the "Scholarship Fund of the University of Michigan Club of Pitts- burgh." The donors hope that eventually, through the addition of interest and further grants, the capital will grow to $20,000, the income from which will be used for scholarships to stu- dents in the School of Business Ad- ministration. It was specified that preference in the granting of these should go to students from the Pitts- burgh metropolitan area. Six faculty men were appointed to the newly created University Com- mittee on Postgraduate Education, which was authorized at the last meeting of the Regents. Dr. James D. Bruce, vice-president of the Uni- versity and director of the depart- ment of postgraduate medicine, will head the committee. Other me m b e r s are: Dr. John Sundwall, director of the Division of Hygiene and Public Health; Dr. Chalmers J. Lyons, professor of oral surgery; Professor Arthur E. Wood of the sociology department; Dr. Harley A. Haynes, director of Uni- versity Hospital; and Prof. Howard B. Lewis, head of the department of physiological chemistry. Mrs. C. C.

Mike Peppe has brought the Buck- eyes a long way forward since they entered Conference swimming com- petition only three years ago but his youngsters were no match for the title-bound Wolverines, who lost first place in only one event. Jack Colville emphasized Michi- gan's weakness in the breast stroke by trimming Lawrence and Dennison in the event, to capture Ohio's only first. Matt Mann's proteges displayed their usual form in. the relays to take both of them in good time. Ogden Dalrymple, Tex Robertson, and Derland Johnston revealed them- selves as almost certain point win- ners in the big meets this year, al- though all three are competing on the Varsity for the first time. Dal- rymple, besides swimming on the two winning relay teams, took a first place in the 50-yard dash, in the good time of 25 seconds, fiat. Robertson, the highly-touted soph- omore from the West, came through in a tie for first in the 100 with his teammate, Henry Kamienski, and pushed Cristy all the way in the 220, finishing second. Derland Johnston stamped himself as a 'potential Degener when he fin- ished a close second to the National champion in the low board event. Degener had a total of 122.2 points w h i le Johnston had 114.75.

The final score .of thebitterly contested game was 5-3.

The scoring for Coach Art Thom-1 sen's squad was evenly divided with Mercer, Southworth, and Quinn each beating Johnny Jewell once during the three periods.- The game was bitterly contested throughout as each six fought des- perately for victory. The play in the first period was especially rough with four penalties being inflicted during the melee.- The Michigan defense was some- what ragged in the hectic first period and only remarkable goal tending by Jewell kept the Badgers from scoring more than once. Twice the Maize and Blue net-minder dropped flat on the ice to make spectacular saves as the Wisconsin forwards broke through the Michigan defense. Sherf was easily the offensive star (Continued on Page 3) Vienna Socialists Turn Snipers, Flee To Sewers VIENNA, Feb. 16. - WI) -Austria turned from bloodshed today to a tenuous peace marred by fighting in Vienna's sewers, rumors of plots, and rebel Socialists' schemes for reprisals.

Low Grades Keep 11 Men Out Of Sports Basketball, Baseball, And Track Hit Hard, Losing Outstanding Men Thirty-Three Letter Men Get 'B' Grade Swimming Benefited Most By Return Of Five Men To Good Standing Eleven athletes failed to hurdle the first semester scholastic barrier and are consequently lost to their respec- tive teams for the iremainder of the year, according to the official report released last night by the Board in Control of Physical Education. At the same time six men regained their eligibility. Leading the list of ineligibles is Boyd Pantlind, star hurdler on the track team. Baseball lost Jack Teitel- baum, regular infielder, and basket- ball lost Johnny. Jablonski and George Rudness, both promising sophomores. Others who are out for the season are Voitto Lassila, track; Ned Die- fendorf and Dick MacLeish swim- ming; Winfred Nelson, basketball; Bill Onderdonk, hockey; Thomas Dooling, baseball; and Maurice Drei- fuss, tennis. Swimming benefited the most by men returning to good scholastic standing. Word that Ogden Dalrym- ple, Bob Renner, Taylor Drysdale, Tex Robertson and Bob Lawrence are eligible brighten Michigan's National Championship hopes. Chuck Kocsis, star golfer in Michi- gan amateur circles, now available to the golf team will help replace the loss of Capt. Johnny Fischer, who has left to play on- the Walker Cup team. Dick Evans, a basketball player, also became eligible.

Over 200 Apply For FERA Jobs On First Day Students Must Need Work To Stay In School To Be EligibleFor Positions Applications for Federal work un- der the special provision for college students were received from more than 200 students in the first day of registration, it was announced yes- terday. Under Federal rules relative to the granting of this work, a student's financial condition must be s u c h that, if he were not to receive this aid, he would be unable to continue his college career, according to Dean ,Joseph A. Bursley. Consequently;, students whose financial condition might be lightened if they were to do such work, yet who will be able to remain in college whether they do or not, are not eligible and should not apply. Dean Bursley pointed out that, in accordance with one of the parts of the applications which are to be filled out, the student must swear before a notary public that failure to get help through the agency of the Federal Emergency Relief Adminis- tration will result in his being forced to leave the University. It was also emphasized that wages to be received will range from $10 Plan Warning To Hitler To Shun Austria Italy, England, And France Indicate Determination To Prevent Alignment 'Moral Bloc' To Be SponsoredBy Italy Nazi Newspaper Charges Kaiser With Treason For 1933 Message (By Associated Press) A growing determination among three large former allied powers to preserve Austrian independence was indicated yesterday. The critical stage in European af- fairs, along with the disarmament crisis, kept worried diplomats working overtime. Italy, France and Great Britain were reported on the threshold of; warning Germany that it must stay; clear of the government of Chancel-, lor Dollfuss. Sponsored By Italy This proposal of a "moral bloc" to keep Austria out of Nazi hands is sponsored by Italy. Great significance in both the Aus- trian and the arms problems was at-' tached to the visit of Captain An- thony Eden, lord privy seals of Great Britain, to the continent . He left yesterday for Paris, Berlin and Rome. The British foreign office4 said his trip was concerned only with1 London's recent proposal for a ten-' year armament plan, recognizing Germany's equality to arms.1 The foreign affairs committee of the French chamber of deputies urged that vigorous action be taken to maintain Austrian freedom. To Give Non-Military Aid l France and Czechoslovakia, it was reported, have decided to give the Dollfuss government non-military aid. Dr. Edourd Benes, foretln min- ister of Czechoslovakia, denied public., charges that his country had aided the Socialist uprising in Austria. The Hitlerite newspaper "Reichs- wart" of Berlin said former Kaiser Wilhelm had committed high treason against Germany by a message in 1933 which said "only under its Kai- ser and the German federated princes can the Reich permanently be estab- lished and restored to its former power and glory," and "I am con- vinced every old officer will do every- thing within his power to give evi- dence of his loyalty by manly deeds.'' League of Nations circles admitted that France's latest arms note to Germany, closing the door to bilat- eral discussion, had put disarmament in its most critical stage. Meeting Of Powers Favored Geneva apparently favors a special meeting of the big powers, including the United States, before April 10,- when the steering committee of the world disarmament conference is to meet. This, it was said, is one of the objects of Eden's trip. The semi-official German news- paper Diplomatische Korrespondenz said France was to blame for "a new crisis in international relations" by its arms stand. In an interview at Bratislava, Czechoslovakia, where he is in refuge, Dr. Julius Deutsch, Austrian Socialist leader, blamed the government of Chancellor Dollfuss for hundreds of deaths in the fighting. Austrian Issue Brings Battle In New York Socialist Mass Meeting Is Turned Into Shambles As Communists Riot NEW YORK, Feb. 16.- (P) - A mass meeting called as a huge trade union and Socialist demonstration against the "slaughter of Austrian workers" turned into a bitter free- for-all fight between Socialists and Communists this afternoon. Boos and yells, thumping fists and flying chairs filled the vast confines of Madison Square Garden as groups of strategically placed Communists tried to break up the meeting. One man was stabbed in the back, and three women and nine other men were beaten or struck with chairs. Two newspaper photographers were among' the injured and the camera of one was smashed. The general free-for-all threatened to become a riot of serious propor- tions when a slim, blond figure - Clarence Hathaway, editor of the Communist "Daily Worker" - leaped to the speakers platform. Socialists on the platform seized him, rushed him off, and beat him as he was pushed against a guard rail at one side of the platform. At this signal the Garden, with its 23,000 excited inhabitants became a bedlam. The Socialists and labor "ushers"--1,000 of them in red arm bands-got most of the crowd into their seats, with tremendous effort, but after that policemen began edg- ing in until there were 50 of them around the hfl."ThsYhad beer- dered not to bring their night sticks. Mayor LaGuardia was to have spoken, but was warned of the riot- ous nature of the meeting and stayed away. The meeting was called jointly by the Socialist party and various labor unions, and was intended to protest against "the ruthless suppression of the trade union and socialist move- ment in Austria and the slaughter of thousands of Austrian workers." Official Gets Into Wrong Church And Wrong 'Pew' TOPEKA, Kan., Feb. 16. - () - Secretar of State Frank J. Ryan not only got in the wrong pew (or rather pulpit) but the wrong church. Invited to address a meeting of Negro Spanish-American War veter ans last night, Ryan stepped into the pulpit of a church and launched into his talk about the Spanish War veterans. "Mr. White Man," interrupted a woman in the front row, "the Span- ish .War veterans are having their meeting two blocks down the street." CHILDREN ARE KILLED DALLAS, Feb. 16.-(P)-Two school children were killed and their teacher was injured critically today when the automobile in which they were riding ran into the side of a fast passenger train west of Dallas. The teacher had picked them up in her car on the way to school. Citizens' Committee Will Canvass City; At Least 1300 Signatures Needed Voters Will Make Decision April 2 Legalizing Beer East Of Division Street Will Be Question Proposed By A. ELLIS BALL A petition to repeal the existing beer east of Division Street provision in the city charter has been drawn up and will be circulated during the next few days by members of the Citizen's Charter Amendment Repeal Committee, it was learned late last night. If the necessary number of peti- tions the collected, the issue will be presented to the voters at the April 2 election. It will not be presented to the Common Council as the method used in the initiative. The petition will require approximately 1,300. names of qualified Ann Arbor voters, or 15 per cent of the total number of votes cast for the mayorality in the last election. The petition must be. filed in the office of Fred Perry, City Clerk, before 4 p. m. next Tues- day. The proposed amendment to sec- tion 88 of the city charter is: "That portion of the section of the charter which states that: No person shall keep a saloon or other place except a drug store, where spir- ituous, malt, brewed, fermented, vin-' ous, or intoxicating liquors are sold, or kept for sale, at wholesale, or, at retail, in all that part of the city of Ann Arbor lying south and east of the following described line: Begin- 'ni-ng on Fuller Street at the city limits of said city and running thence westerly along Fuller Street to De- troit Street; thence southwesterly along Detroit Street to Division Street, thence south on Division Street as extended south to the city limits south of said city of Ann Arbor' is hereby repealed. All city ordinances pertaining to this subject are also re- pealed. The Common Council of the city of Ann Arbor shall not refuse to approve a merchant's application to sell liquor on the ground of the geographical location of his establish- ment except in so far as that location might be in violation of the laws of the State of Michigan or the zoning ordinances of the city." Members of the Repeal Commit- tee will ask candidates for the Com- mon Council in the forthcoming elec- tion to state whether or not they. would favor beer in the campus area. in the event the local provision is repealed. In orir to repeal the charter amendment, the new amend- ment to the charter must be passed on by at least a three-fifths majority. Campus Beer Ban May Be Ended By Initiative Petitioi Program Of Academy Reveals Searching Quest For Solutions Discussion of significant problems in the fields of economics, history, and political science, combined with a general survey of research in sci- ence and the arts, was revealed to be the keynote of the 1934 session of the Michigan Academy of Science, Arts and Letters yesterday when the program of the meetings which will be held March 15 to 17, was dis- closed. Dr. Charles Howard McIlwain, Pul- itzer prize-winner and Eaton pro- fessor of science and government at Harvard University, who has been se- speaking on the situation in the United States with respect to recent tendencies of this country in the di- rection of centralization of power in the hands of the President. Prof. Preston W. Slosson and Prof. Arthur S. Aiton, both of the University his- tory department, will take up the question of dictatorsips in Europe and South America respectively. Prof. I. L. Sharfman, chairman of the economics department and au- thority on economic problems, will lead a round-table' discussion on the NRA and industrial control at the section of economics and -sociology 1 Continuation of the Good Will Fund for needy students on campus, will-not necessitate a general campus drive for the present, at least, it was announced yesterday by Gilbert R. Bursley, '34, president of the Under- graduate Council. Students are still being helped with money remaining from last year's drive, and the Fund is continually being augmented by miscellaneous donations while the Ann Arbor Com- munity Fund is again making a con- tribution. The J-Hop committee will probably devote a share of its profits and the Union has agreed to again sponsor an all-campus boxing show, Bursley said. The Council does not wish to "sad- ber of those students needing finan- cial assistance will' gain it through new student jobs being made avail- able by the FERA. If any student is unable to benefit by this plan, how- ever, he is urged to apply at the office of the Dean of Students for either a loan or direct aid, Bursley said. Belief that there are students in distress and that there is continued need for such assistance as is pro- vided by the Good Will Fund was ex- pressed yesterday, and students were requested not to "so weaken them- selves in an endeavor to secure an education as to make it difficult to derive the maximum benefits from that education." Good Will Fund To Remain; Campus Will Not Be Assessed New Penalties For Students Are Suggested Undergraduate C o u n c il Members Seek Means Of PunishingScalpers A new method of dealing with ir- regularities occurring in student ex- tra-curricular activities, was suggest- ed by some members of the Under- graduate Council last night as fur- ther investigation against two J-Hol ticket scalpers continued. The new method, instead of sus- pending the student for a stated length of time, would deprive him of certain functions on campus. Thus he might be deprived of his athletic coupon book or his Union member- ship card. It would be possible to continue the penalties still further and deprive the guilty person of re- ceiving his diploma in Commence- ment exercises and participation in the exercises. Not all the members of the Counci had seen the proposals last night, but those that had seemed to be di vided upon the value of the sugges tion. A number believed that some
