Rumors that the State Street party had split over a candidate for the J-Hop chairmanship and would not present a State Street ticket in Wed- nesday'stelection were corroborated last night. As a result the so-called progressive fraternities of the old State Street faction have organized the Frater- nity-Independent party; while the re- maining houses in that political group are g7ot revealing their plans for the election. In the event that the conservative houses of what was formerly the State Street party decide to enter a slate in the balloting, it will be the first time in recent years that there has been a third party in the J-Hop elections. Parties Announce Slates Officers of the Washtenaw-Coali- tion faction, declaring themselves to be "the only organized fraternity, sor- ority, and independent party" have announced the make-up of their ticket as has the Fraternity-Independent group. James Eyre, independent, and Phil- ip Van Zile, Delta Kappa Epsilon, will head the Fraternity-Independent slate as candidates for the J-Hop chairmanship and class presidency, respectively. Louise French, Kappa Kappa Gam- ma, as the vice-presidential nominee, Alison Tennant, Alpha Phi, as the candidate for secretary, and John Perkins, Beta Theta Pi, as the nom- inee for treasurer, complete the list of Fraternity-Independent candidates for offices. To Elect Committees In addition to the chairmanship and the traditional offices, members of the class will vote for four J-Hop committee positions. The Fraternity- Independent party has nominated Jean Seeley, Kappa Alpha Theta, Robert Rogers, Psi Upsilon, and Joel Newman, Phi Beta Delta, for these posts. A second girl, who will represent Helen Newberry dormitory, will be named later for the fourth committee position. The Washtenaw-Coalition ticket will be headed by Russell Coward, Theta Chi, for president, and Edward Litchfield, Trigon, for J-Hop chair- man. The other nominees for class offices are Hazel Hanlon, Alpha Chi Omega, for vice-president, Ruth Rich, Delta Delta Delta, for secretary, and Benjamin Charin, Phi Sigma Delta, for treasurer. Candidates for the J-Hop commit- tee positions on this slate are Helen Zeck, Mosher-Jordan independent, Dorothy Roth, Pi Beta Phi, Irving Levitt, Kappa Nu, and William R. Dixon, Kappa Sigma. BULLETIN IIAZELTON, Pa., Nov. 5. - OP) - Three persons were shot to death and nine others, including six women, were wounded today when'machine gun fire swept a Democratic political parade at 11:30 p.m. today at Kelayres, a mining village five miles south of here. The crowd surged toward a brick residence from which fire was di- rected. State. police battled to keep them from dynamiting the house. The riot climaxed a year of factional friction in the little town's politics. The Dem- ocrats were swinging down Kelayres' main street, standards waving and red fires flaring. Suddenly shot blazed out from both sides of the street, raking the marchers with a deadly cross fire. From darkened second floor windows of the two homes said by police to be those of Joseph Bruno, Republican leader, and his nephew, Pal. canme a rgav of bullets. Dr. Ruthven Opens Series On Speaks Here Tonight Religious Opportunities Here EDITOR'S NOTE: This is the first of a series of articles explaining the relig- ious opportunities available for stu- dents at the University. The series is being run in conjunction with a con- certed effort of religious organizations on the campus to advise the student body of their activities.eOther articles in the series will appear each day this week. By PRES. A. G. RUTHVEN "The concerted effort that is to be made to present the advantages of church affiliation to the students merits the highest praise. It is sig- nificant and timely. "We are in a period when reserves must be built up and supreme values grasped by every citizen. Religion is a superior value. The churches are here to present the hopes, the as- pirations, and convictions of the good and the great who have developed our civilization, and they are thus im- portant educational agencies. "By slow and steady effort our social development goes on. Every champion of truth, each discoverer of a new fact, every leader who goes wisely to a cross for right as against wrong, moves mankind nearer to those goals which religion selects. Religious education is designed both to promote spiritual growth and to purify and freshen ideals. "I wish the religious groups at the University of Michigan and the worship centers in Ann Arbor every success. It may be proper for me to suggest to those new to this campus and community that alliance with the fellowship in which you have thus far been trained is good education. Neg- lect of the sources of faith and the facilities for religious education when one takes up new duties or moves to a strange community can scarcely be defended as wisdom. While freed- om is a virtue when widely used, we are in a University to discipline our- selves and the spiritual disicplines are at once the most important and the most difficult of all man's devel- opmental processes. "I hope the proposed statement of objectives on the part of various groups may increase the devotion within each communion. The splen- did good will which exists between groups in itself should have spiritual significance." Both Parties Confident As They Cornet Plans For Extensive Elections DR. LLOYD C. DOUGLAS Dr. L. Douglas Will Lecture Here Tonight S.C.A. Chicago Trip Provides Busy eek"End Sociology Students View Underworld District, NBC Broadcasting Studio An interesting week-end was spent in Chicago by students who made the sociology trip, sponsored by the Stu- dent Christian Association, accord- ing to Russell F. Anderson, president. There they saw the slum area, the police department, the National Broadcasting Company studios, the Social Hygiene clinic, the University of Chicago. campus, and the under- world area on a tour conducted by Dr. Frank O. Beck, practical sociolo- gist. Most of Saturday was devoted to a visit to the slums and an inspection of the police department. Here thy saw the jails, the daily police line-up room, the boys' courts, the women's court, county court, and the psychia- try laboratory After this visit, Anderson com-' mented: "Conditions that are present in some of our jails today are slightly better than those that existed in the, Middle Ages. This trip gave everyone an insight into the desperate need of those who live in the slum area." According to Anderson, the visit to the studios of the National Broad- casting Company was one of the most interesting parts of the trip. The group was shown some of the largest individual studios in the country, and told of the special construction neces- sary for radio purposes. On part of the tour the group was accompanied by Edward Clasbie, head of the Seven Arts Club of Chicago, and Dr. Ben Wrightman, head of the Anarchist Club in Chicago, whose as- sistance was obtained through Dr. Beck. Several famous spots in Chicago's underworld were visited, and Dr. Beck pointed out some of the alleged gang- sters and their "hangouts." During the visit to the Social Hy- giene Clinic the group was addressed by Dr. Rachelle S. Yarrows, director, on some of the problems that face her institution. Sunday morning the members o. the group attended chapel at the Uni- versity of Chicago, where they heard an address by Dr. Pip Van Duesen of Columbia University. Eleanor Peterson, '35, chairman of the committee in charge of the trip, announced a series of discussions on the observations made, to be held at Lane Hall. The date of the discus- sion, which will be open to the public, will be announced later. Micology Seminar To Hear Two Faculty Men Dr. Lewis E. Mehmeyer and Dr. Smith, of the botany department will speak at the meeting of the Micology seminar at 7:30 today in Room 4023 of the Natural Science Building. Both speakers will describe their experi- ences at the meeting of the American Micology Society which was held in the latter part of August at Seventh Lake, Adirondack National Park, N.Y.

Douglas, formerly pas- tor of the First Congregational Church, will speak at 8:15 p.m. today in Hill Auditorium on "The Flight to Freedom." Dr. Douglas held the pastorate here for seven years, and his sermons al- ways had capacity audiences. Mrs. A. D. Tinker, student activities di- rector of the Congregational Church, which is sponsoring Dr. Douglas's ap- appearance, said that crowds at his sermons became so great that engi- neers had to be called in to strengthen the piers supporting the church. Beside being a lecturer of note, Dr. Douglas is a widely read author. His "Magnificent Obsession" is still a best seller three years after publica- tion. "Forgive Us Our Trespasses," his second work, though not a best seller, is a very popular book accord- ing to his publishers. His third novel, "Green Lights," will be published sometime this winter. Dr. Douglas is well known to col- lege audiences throughout the coun- try. He has held pastorates in college towns in Indiana, Michigan, Cali- fornia, and Washington, D. C. His services have been in demand for convocations and commencements for several years, Mrs. Tinker said. For seven years he was director of relig- ious education at Illinois University. His last pastorate was in Montreal. This is Dr. Douglas's first return to Ann Arbor in a speaking capacity since resigning his pastorate. He will be introduced by Prof. Edwin C. God- dard of the Law School and a recep- tion will be held on the stage. Tickets for the lecture may be purchased at Tinker's, Wahr's, the church office on William St. and at the box office after 7 p.m. All seats are 50 cents. Union Stages Promotions In R.O.T.C.

Is he doffing his communist boots or is he adding pink to the red already given him by various news- paper cartoonists? The newest angle on the college professor in his role as brain truster is presented on the cover of the November Gargoyle which will appear on the campus to- morrow. With the new "Garg," our old friend of the cartoons takes on a new aspect that should fire the hearts of ad- ministrationists. Butthe cover is only a small part of the numerous fea- tures which have been combined in the coming issue. For the first time in the history of the publication, color will be used on two pages instead of one in the mag- azine. Appearing in caricature will be four prominent members of the fac- ulty, as well as a popular member of play production. There will be more than the usual number of cartoons and jokes, as well as the various pop- ular departments. New features have also been added. Large Throng Turns Out To GreetVarsity A defeated Varsity football squad was greeted by more than 1,000 loyal students and townspeople late Sun- day afternoon at the Michigan Cen- tral Railroad Station upon their re- turn. from the Minnesota game at Minneapolis. When the train bearing the team, c o a c h e s, managers, cheerleaders, trainers, and part of the band ar- rived at 5:30 p.m., the platform of the station was crowded with local supporters, and the street in front of the depot was jammed with parked cars. Most of the assembled crowd had waited two hours for the arrival of the train, which was originally ex- pected at 3:30 p.m. At that time there were nearly 2,500 enthusiastic rooters gathered on the platform. A large portion of that crowd re- mained at the station until 4:30 p.m. when it was reported that the train would be delayed another hour. Scat- tered showers further diminished the ranks of the supporters. However, when the train appeared in the station, a cheer went up from the crowd. Because of the fact that a large portion of the Varsity band had remained in Chicago there was no parade up State Street from the station. '36 Engineer Party Names Candidates Announcement of the nominees for the junior offices of the engineering school by the Fraternity-Independent party was made late yesterday. Nelson Droulard was nominated for the position of president. For vice.- president Bob Reed-Hill was named; for secretary, Larry David; for treas-; urer, Al Hartsig. The two candidates named for the Honor Council were Sheldon Drennen and Bill Eason. Foster Campbell, Chuck Marschner, and Chuck Frick were named to candidacy for the J- Hop committee. Voters Will Ballot On 19 Different Offices In The County, State, And U.S. Close Battle Seen For Higher Posts Total Registrations In City About 14,000; A Large Vote Expected By PAUL J. ELLIOTT Traditionally a stronghold of Mich- igan Republicanism Washtenaw county will ballot today for nine county officers, six members of the Stateadministration, and senators and representatives in both Congress and the State legislature. Approximately 14,000 voters are registered in Ann Arbor, City Clerk Fred C. Perry reported yesterday. Perry said he expected a total vote in the city of more than 11,000. Other districts in the county outside the city are expected to return nearly an equal number of ballots. Both Democrats and Republicans were publicly claiming victory for their local and state-wide tickets, al- though impartiAl observers predicted that the Republican county candi- dates would win a majority of the local positions, at least. Close Battle Seen The contests for governor, U. S. Senator, and representative for the second congressionaldistrict, which includes Ann Arbor, are being fought 'ut largely on the basis of support or disapproval of the New Deal, and this factor may lower the usually strong support which Republican candidates are given in county balloting. In the 1932 congressional election, Rep. John. C Lehr, the Democratic . incumbent, was elected on a wave of Roosevelt enthusiasm which gave him a decisive victory over the Republican -andidate, Earl C. Michener, who is again Lehr's opponent. Lehr's margin was gained outside Washtenaw 2ounty, however, as local votes were split practically even between the two men. The two major gubernatorial can- didates, Republican Frank D. Fitz- gerald, present secretary of state, and Arthur J. Lacy, prominent Detroit attorney, have both appeared in Ann Arbor during the campaign. All in- lications point to an even battle be- tween them in Washtenaw county. Fitzgerald's running mate, Sen. Ar- ;hur H. Vandenberg, has not cam- )aigned in the local district, although 'rank A. Picard, his Democratic oppo- nent and former head of the Liquor Control Commission, was here with Lacy. Vote On Six Amendments With the submission of six consti- tutional amendments to the voters, a record vote for off-year elections is xpected. Only one amendment ap- oears to be favored by the majority f the State'spress,uthe provision which would enable county govern- ment reorganization. This, the fourth amendment on the ballot, is in part the wot of two mem- bers of the University political science department, Professors Arthur W. Bromage and Thomas H. Reed, mem- bers of the sub-committee which drafted the amendment. Amendments two and three, the first relating to. taxes on gas and oil and the second to the weight tax on automobiles, have been subject to the widest condemnation. Opponents claim that large gas and oil com- panies wold be freed from taxation which other industry pays, and that the schools would suffer a serious loss of revenue. Complete results of the balloting for county, State, and national office- holders to be held today will appear in the regular issue of The Daily to- morrow morning. Significant results in all other states will also appear in this issue. R. H. Upson Injured By Auto Collision Ralph H.
