Ward contributed 15 of the Wol- verines' 64 points by victories in the 60-yard dash, 70-yard high hurdles, and the high jump. The Wolverines piled up well over twice as many points as Chicago and Northwestern, the former landing second with 29, and Northwestern winding up third with 24. Dave Hunn, a Wolverine soph- omore, won the pole vault from Chi- cago's star, John Roberts, at 13 feet, 2 inches, and Jack Childs outfooted the mile field in 4:22.6. Coach Charlie Hoyt held Tom Ellerby out of the quarter mile to give Dick El- lerby and Starr a little experience. Neither was good enough to beat the Northwestern sophomore, Jack Flem- ing, who won in 51.3 seconds. Flem- ing, however, was unable to with- stand the closing rush of Smith of (Continued on Page 3) Hockey By ART CARSTENS Michigan's Varsity hockey team closed its 1934 season at the local arena last night by defeating Mich- igan Tech, 3 to 0, to win the mythical championship of Michigan. Johnny Sherf pushed in the first counter a minute and seven seconds after the game had begun on one of his typical solo dashes. The defensive stars of the game were Johnny Jewell and Don MacCol- lum. Jewell, in the nets for the Wol- verinesfi made a total of 22 saves, many of them of the most difficult type, while MacCollum, playing his usual unspectacular game, broke up the majority of the Tech scoring drives. Six players wore the Maize-and- Blue of Michigan into a hockey game for the last time, leaving only Jewell and Sherf among the regulars, to carry on in 1935. Seniors who will not return are Capt. George David, Ted Chapman, MacCollum, Avon (Continued on Page 3) Swimming CHAMPAIGN, Ill., March 3.-(/P)- Coning right back after defeating Northwestern last night, Michigan's powerful swimming team conquered Illinois today, 50 to 34, in a dual meet. The Wolverine medley relay team of Drysdale, Lawrence and Dal- rymple, cracked the Illini pool rec- ord by nearly 5 seconds, flashing the 300 yards in 3:11.7, while Charles Flachmann gave Illinois a new mark in 24.3 seconds. Flachmann won three first places to keep the Illini in the running. Michigan won five events, to four for Illinois and dis- played superior team balance.

They too will deal with interesting European, Euro- Asiatic, and JEuro-American' problems. By DR. RUDOLPH A. WINNACKER (Of the History Department) The recent riots in Paris wlhich cul- minated in the so-called "little revo- lution of Feb. 6" were largely of polit- ical origin, though moral and eco- nomic factors aggravated the crisis. The common objective of the ver- bal, printed, and finally physical at- tacks of the people of Paris was the Chamber of Deputies, or, more spe- cifically, the existing majority within that Chamber. Consequently, any ar- ticle dealing with the recent unrest in France must make an attempt to explain the complicated political sit- uation in France. The Chamber of Deputies which is now in session was elected in May 1932, and for the second time since the World War the victors were the political groups of the Left, the Rad- ical-Socialists, a party composed mainly of members of the less well- to-do_ bourgeoisie, and the Socialists, who draw their strength from the workers in the various industrial centers and from the small farmers of southern France. By means of a close' electoral alliance these two parties were able to win nearly 70 seats in the Chamber of Deputies from their opponents of the Right and Center, who had supported the recent Conservative ministries of La- val and Tardieu. Obviously, a more progressive governmental policy than that of Tardieu, a sort of "New Deal" was desired in France by a large number of people, and consequently Herriot, the leader of the Radical- Socialists, became prime minister in June, 1932. French "New Deal" The French "New Deal" started with the same handicap as the one in the United States: a huge deficit in the national budget. Unfortunately the parties of the Left were never able to conquer their first difficulty, for inflationary measures were taboo in France, where the majority of peo- ple were unwilling to repeat the post- war experience, which had devaluated the franc to one-fifth of its par value. Industrialists, exploiters, and the people interested in the tourist trade, might clamor for inflation, but the large arm of government bondholders, many of them supporters of the Rad- ical-Socialists, were opposed to it. Under these circumstances the statesmen of France had to turn to the policy of deflation, which de- manded at the same time a balanced budget. This situation created a hopeless dilemma for the parties of the Left. They had promised their electors a golden age, better business, fewer taxes, and more munificent social laws, and now that they were in office, they were forced to levy new taxes, and to cut salaries and (Continued on Page 6) Freshment Iireed From Pot-Wearing Burdent Freshman pot wearing for this year reached an end yesterday. As a re- sult of action taken by the Under- graduate Council Friday afternoon, March 4 was set as the day after which freshmen need no longer wear their badge of first year men. Inas- much as March 4 is today, and fresh- men don't wear pots Sunday any- way, the actual end of freshman pot wearing for this year was yesterday. At Friday's meeting the Council also decided that henceforth freshman pot wearing will be compulsory only until Thanksgiving Day.

Michigan Has Leading Place In Gift Totals Endowments 32 Million; All Other State Schools Are Far Below Alumni Donate 70 Per Cent Of Gifts Total Assets At End Of 1931 Are 58 Million; U. Of Calif. Second Total gifts greater than those of any other state university in the na- tion, and a greater percentage of the total from alumni of the University -these are the boasts which Michi- gan may make on the basis of a re- cently completed survey. Estimates place total assets of the University, at the end of 1931, at $58,000,000 and of this sum $32,800,- 000, or over one-half, has come to the University as private donations of lands, buildings, or money. The total covers a period of 114 years, since the founding in 1817. Of other state schools having large gift lists, the University of Califor- nia is second, but only 13, per cent of its total amount came from alum- ni, whereas approximately 70 per cent of Michigan's total gifts came from former students here. Other Big Ten schools which are included in the survey report total gifts rang- ing from $2,000,000 to $20,000,000, but in practically all cases less than half of the amounts received came from alumni of the schools, and one Big Ten school reported but 12 perj cent of its gifts as accruing from alumni. Wilfred B. Shaw, director of alum- ni relations, said that the survey, which was made through his office, resulted partially from so many other state institutions expressing curiosi- ty as to why Michigan receives so many gifts from her ,alumni. "I feel that Michigan alumni have been accustomed to give to theJni- versity from the beginning," 1r. Shaw said, "and the general atti- tude that the University deserves support has persisted." Examples of early gifts to the University are the $5,000 that was raised by sub- scription in Detroit in 1817 to start on its way the "Catholepistemiad, or University of Michigania," the mon- ey being used to buy a lot and erect a building there; and the deeding of 1,817 acres by several Indian tribes, proceeds of their sale to go to the new institution with the hope on the part of the tribal leaders that some of their young people might eventually receive the white man's training. From this time on, through the relocating of the University in Ann Arbor i 1837, the gifts received steadily increased, with the greatest of them all coming since 1900. The largest single gift ever received by the University is that of William W. Cook, whose bequest was valued at $8,711,116. Aside from this sum, the survey of gifts lists lands valued at $1,976,000; buildings and improve- ments, $11,218,000; equipment, $3,- 895,000; permanent endowment funds, $2,753,000; and expendable funds for fellowships, research, and library purposes, $2,876,000. JacB Sged By Engineers For Slide Rule Merle Jacobs and his orchestra have been signed to play for the Slide Rule dance to be held March 23 in the Union ballroom, it was announced last night by Stanley C. Killian, '34E, chairman. Jacobs' orchestra has been fea- tured on the program of the Holland Hotel in Cleveland for over two years, this dance marking his first outside appearance since he went there. He has also been broadcasting over the National Broadcasting System. Tickets for the dance will go on sale Monday, the sale being limited to engineering students for the first 10 days. Sales will be made by com- mitteemen in the West Engineering Building. Other committeemen for the dance include the following senior engi- neering students: Jack E. Salmon, William H. Mohrhoff, Steinar Vaks- dal, Kenneth G. Roe, Donald C. An- Keep Libraries Open Sundays Efforts of the Undergraduate Council to create a fund suffi- ciently large to keep the Main Library, exclusive of the stacks, open on Sundays for the remainder of the year should be commended and supported by all students and members of the faculty. The facts with regard to the library's closing on Sunday this year are simple enough. The State cut the University appropriation and the University authorities, forced to reduce expenditures to the bone, found that it would be impossible to continue the Sunday library. The fault for the library's closing, in other words, rests with the State legislature. Also quite simple is the predicament in which the students find themselves. They need and want the library open Sundays. There is just one way for them to get it open: to raise, totally, $375. That sum looks large, but when it is remembered that the number of students who use the library runs into thousands it is imme- diately seen that only a very small contribution from each indivi- dual will keep the library open Sundays. The Daily believes that the Undergraduate Council's efforts to raise the money should be supported. It believes that the library should be open Sundays, most particularly during the period previous to final semester examinations. The Council is contacting all fraternities, sororities, and campus organizations through its tryouts. It is necessary to determine, however, how many inde- pendents are interested in this move and will contribute at least five cents to the fund. In order to determine the number The Daily today prints a coupon. Those who wish to see the fund raised are requested to sign this coupon and deposit it tomorrow or Tuesday in one of the Undergraduate Council ballot boxes, which will be placed in Angell Hall, the Union, and the Main Library. I wish to see the Main Library open Sundays and am willing to contribute ............ cents to a fund neces- sary to keep it open on that day. Name ................. ............................

Debaters To Sessions 0 Settle Council Asks Importance Of Size In Woman's Charm Whether large women have more of what is called charm than their more petite sisters will be considered Wednesday night by the rival de- bate teams of Alpha Nu, men's speech club, and Athena Literary Society, national debating club for women. The men will insist that small ladiet have a monopoly of that thing called charm, while the women speakert will attempt to prove that size hat nothing to do with attractiveness and appeal. "The question has been considered before," said Dorothy Saunders, '35, president of Athena, in discussing the coming meet, "and decided both for and against the smaller women. but we hope to settle it this time once and for all." The students who will discuss thit question in the two organization'- annual humorous debate are, affirm- ative: Charles Rogers, '35, Jame: Finkbeiner, '35, and Karl Nelson, '37 negative: Miss Saunders, Eleanoi Blum, '35, and Mary Mildred Mur- phy, '35. The question as formally stated will be: "Resolved That the Charm of Woman Varies Inversely As to Her Size."

Will Attempt Summary At Final General Meeting This Morning In Union Discuss Sub-Topics Under Main Theme Interest In social Change Remains High In Group Meetings Yesterday Following a day marked by dis- cussion of vital economic, social, and religious issues in smaller special- interest groups, the second annual Spring Parley will conclude its meet- ings today with a general session at 9:30 a.m. in the Union. Because of the large audiences which crowded all of the general ses- sions and group discussions during the first two days of the Parley, the final meeting today will be held in the Ballroom rather than in the lounge. Some attempt will be made today to summarize issues already raised. Informal 'discussion between fac- ulty and students will be encouraged at an optional breakfast to be served at 8:30 a.m. in the Union, it was an- nounced last night by officers of the Parley. Sessions yesterday concerned them- selves more particularly with the sub-topics under the general theme, "What Can We Believe?" Interest Shown In Economics Great interest continued in the topic of "Capitalism and Social Change." Discussion led to essential agreement on the part of Prof. Max S. Handman of the economics de- partment and Prof. Harold J. Mc- Farlan of the engineering college that the socialistic state is an ideal toward which to strive, but differed as to the means by which it should be accomplished. Professor Handman declared that change must be made slowly within the system, while Professor McFar- lan, supported by Charles A. Orr of the economics department, predicted a social and economic revolution. . The section on "War and the Stu- dent," meeting separately in the af- ternoon, joined with the economics section in the evening. Professor Preston W. Slosson of the history de- partment stressed at both times the complexity of issues involved in eco- nomic and diplomatic problems. It is not easy to draw a dividing line between capitalism and socialism, nor between the proletariat and the bourgeoisie, he declared. Emphasizes Freedom Of Thought "Freedom of thinking is much more vital than any property arrange- ments, and'suspension of such free- dom, even temporarily, is the most vicious crime conceivable," he said. "That is the view of the 'professor- iat.'" In an attempt to clear up the posi- tion he took at the general session Friday night, Prof. Bennett Weaver of the English department stated be- fore the section on "Religion and the Church" that he did not advocate in- i tellectual isolation but rather the ap- plication of spiritual values to the problems of our own day. The Russian example was as freely used in the section on "Sex and the Family" as in that on social change. Sexual education and birth control were topics which occupied the major time of the group. Parley T R e q u e s t s Contributions Fron Fraternities And Sororities 'For Library Letters to the presidents of all fra- ternities and sororities from the Un- dergraduate Council requesting a small contribution to a fund to keep the Main Library open Sundays were written yesterday and will be placed in the mails sometime today. The letters explain that the fund, to which the Council has already, contributed $50 of its own money, must total $375 if the library, ex- clusive of the stacks, is to be kept open for the remaining Sundays of the year. "Should we fall short of this sum," the letter reads, "we shall use what money we have for each Sunday startingat final exam week and working back to date. Should we raise more than $375 we shall use this extra money to have extra help, hired and to open the stacks." The letter suggests that fraternities and sororities might find it feasible to add 10 to 25 cents to each indi- vidual house bill and to entitle the treasurer to make the contribution, A member of the tryout staff of the Undergraduate Council will contact each individual house Tuesday to pick up whatever sum the house cares to contribute, the letter says. Not only fraternities and sororities, but other campus groups as well as independents and faculty members, will. be asked to contribute some small amount, Gilbert Bursley, presi- dent of the Council, said last night. 6 NRA's Allowance Of Economic Planning May Satisfy Industry University FER A Projects Now Employing Over 500 Students More than 500 students are now working on projects under the Fed- eral Emergency Relief Administra- tion's special grant to college stu- dents, it was announced yesterday. T h e y a r e distributed throughout nearly every school and college of the University, and in practically all departments. Most of the work being done at present is clerical, in libraries, or of a research nature and is proving to be of great help both to divisions of rolled in some college or university in January, 1934, but would be un- able to complete the academic year without this help. The other fourth was to be made up of new students who would otherwise be unable to enter the University. Under the new ruling, however, all of the jobs created, more than 700 here, may be given to students in the first class and so enable more to continue in school that have already completed part of their work. By GUY M. W HIPPLE, JR. If in the final analysis the Na- tional Recovery Administration per- mits industry to indulge in syste- matic economic planning, the con- cessions of industry to labor may be entirely offset and the frequently frustrated hopes of industry to regu- late production in order to keep in line with demand may be realized, according to Prof. Charles L. Jami- son of the School of Business Ad- ministration. Writing in the March Quarterly Review of the Michigan Alumnus, Professor Jamison asserts that the effect of the labor provision of the NRA was to place upon industry a heavy burden of increased costs and standard cost accounting plus open prices" (industry's advantages). The potential advantage of indus- try's "x" may be very great, Profes- sor Jamison's article states. If the "x" were to be economic planning by industry through its own trade associations to the end that produc- tion would be governed, the result would be more stable prices, more certain profits, and a more profitable prosperity, Professor Jamison pre- dicts.I Before the NRA stepped in "busi- ness needed a code of rules," ac- cording to Professor Jamison.
