To Talk At Meeting
Bitter Rivalry With Ohio
State Expected To Draw
Many To Gatherng
Ohio State's widely-publicized
"Scarlet Scourge" and the chance a
fighting Michigan machine has of
beating it will be the chief topics o
discussion before a pep meeting at 8
p.m. today in Hill Auditorium.
The firm conviction that Michi-
gan's fate is far from being as black
as sports writers paint it will be up-
held by Capt. William Renner and
Coach Harry G. Kipke, the principal
speakers of what is expected to prove
a most expiting evening.
It will be Captain Renner's first
appearance in an "official capacity"
at a pep rally.
According to the plans for the
meeting, announced last night by
William R. Dixon, president of the
Men's Council, which arranged the
meeting, both Kipke and Renner will
give informal talks, but no program
of formal speeches has been ar-
ranged for the meeting.
Band to Take Part
The Varsity-R.O.T.C. Band and the
cheerleaders will take part in the
program, with the usual features of
Michigan marches and yells.
Renner will be playing his last foot-
ball game for Michigan Saturday
when he faces the Buckeyes and will
bear the brunt of the Michigan at-
tack. Eight other seniors and a
junior in the team's overnight head-
quarters will be awaiting the last
game of their Wolverine football
careers,
George Bolas, Carl Carr, Ernie
Johnson, Winfred Nelson, Harry Pill-
enger, Steve Remias, Mike Savage,
and John Viergever are the seniors,
and Earl Meyers, a junior, will also
finish his Michigan competition be-
cause of a year's play on the fresh-
man team at Wayne University.
Bitter Rivalry
With the added incentive of the
bitter rivalry with Ohio State, Cap-
tain Renner's presence, and the sig-
nificance of the last game of the
season, a larger attendance than that
at the previous pep-meetings of this
year is hoped for, and the Men's
Council urges all students to attend
if it is physically possible for them
to do so.
"It'll be short and sweet, with lots
of noise," Dixon announced last night,
adding that the meeting would start
promptly so as to not interfere with
other student engagements later to-
night.
Increased interest in the game was
evidence by the fact that the tem-
porary bleachers have been erected
around the top of the stadium to
take care of the extra applications
for seats between the two goal lines.
The largest football attendance of the
past two years is expected.

Departs With Pilot For
Second Attempt Within
Twenty-Four Hours
NEW YORK, Nov. 21.- (P) - The
New York Times and the North Amer-
ican Newspaper Alliance reported to-
day that Lincoln Ellsworth had
hopped off on his second attempt in
24 hours to fly 2,140 miles across the
Antarctic continent.
Ellsworth and his pilot, Herbert
Hollock-Kenyon, had been forced to
give up the first flight and return to
the base ship, the Wyatt Earp, be-
cause of an oil leak in their motor,
after three hours and eleven minutes
in the air.
The explorer and his pilot again
had favorable weather for the take-
off.
The plane was equipped with an
aerial camera, with which the ex-
plorer hoped to map the region he
describes as "the great unknown."
He had headed toward Admiral
Byrd's former base at "Little Amer-
ica," intending to stay in the air about
14 hours. He was aloft, however, a
little more than three hours.
Ellsworth's wireles ed report said
he had planned to claim the territory
from the 80th to the 120th meridians
for the United States and call it

WASHINGTON, Nov. 21. - (P) -
Secretary of the Interior Harold L
Ickes called on the oil industry to-
day to halt, voluntarily, shipments
to Italy.
Explaining at a press conference
that he had "no authority at all" in
the matter, Ickes said, "I don't think
they ought to sell oil to Italy.
"They ought to comply both in
letter and spirit with the efforts of
the government to prevent furnishing
war materials to either of the bellig-
erents."
The question came up as he re-
leased a report by the Bureau of
Mines showing September oil ship-
ments higher than in August, "indi-
cating that the stimulation in this
trade due to the war scares outweighs
the 'usual seasonal decline."

Teachers Arm
In Mexico As
Trouble Grows
'$ocialistic Education' Is
Issue In Death Of 12 And
Injury Of Two Teachers
MEXICO CITY, Nov. 21. -- (') -
The federal secretariat of education,
alarmed by the growing number of
killings of rural school teachers, asked
the war department today to allow
teachers to arm for protection against
the violence measures of opponents of
socialistic education.
More than 12 such killings have
been reported in the past month, most
of them in the states of Puebla More-
los and Jalisco.
Several days ago two women teach-
ers were attacked at Puebla by rebels,
who cut off their ears and threat-
ened them with death if they con-
tinued giving socialistic instruction.
Dispatches from Puebla yesterday
reported the leader of a band sus-
pected of killing six teachers in the
Texiutlan district in a single day
last week had been captured and shot
by federal troops.
Convinced that vigorous measures
are necessary to halt the slayings, au-
thorities placed his body on display
in the Plaza in Texiutlan in warning
of the enemies of official education.
Officials said the attacks on teach-
ers were fired by fanatics.
ROME, Nov. 21.-(P)--Premier
Mussolini, in a new move to oppose
economic sanctions against Italy, or-
dered three-month furloughs for
about 100,000 of Italy's 1,000,000 home
troops.
The government said the action was
due to increasing farm and indus-
trial production, because of the eco-
nomic siege of Italy, and the desire
to send men home to the families that
need them. The soldiers will be told
to be ready to return on an instant's
notice. /
Mussolini today signed several pro-
tocols of an Italo-Hungarian trade
treaty which diverts to Hungary some
of Italy's former trade with countries
which now are applying sanctions.
Hungary supported Italy at Geneva.
ASMARA, Eritrea, Nov. 21. - (')
Defeat and rout of cunning Ras Sey-
oum and his Ethiopian warriors by
four Italian battalions in a moun-
tain battle was reported today to the
Fascist high command.
In full flight and carrying their
dead, the tribesmen melted away into
the Tembien fastnesses, with the four
battalions and a squadron of Italian
horsemen hoping to encircle the
enemy before Seyoum could rally his
men in pursuit.
How many of the Ethiopians were
slain was not known. The Italian
losses were described as "small."
The Italian columns finally caught
up with Seyoum near Abero Pass in
the Tembien mountains not far from
Makale.
But the crafty Ethiopian northern
commander chose to show his forces
when only one of the Italian bat-
talions, composed entirely of native
troops, confronted him.
From their lofty mountain posi-
tions, the Ethiopians opened up a
sharp machine gun fire, but after
some hours of fighting fled when they
realized the superior strength of their
foes.
An aviation reconaissance over the
Mainescic valley region disclosed,
meanwhile, that Ethiopian forces
scattered by Monday's air raid were
concentrating again in the same lo-
cality.
Foulkes, Aides

Defiance Of New Deal's
Utility Laws Is Growing
In Eastt
WASHINGTON, Nov. 21. - P) -
Blows were struck by manufacturers,
farmers and the Government today
in the Supreme Court battle over the
New Deal's arm program.
At the same time, defiance of the
New Deal's Utility Law was spread-
ing among holding companies in the
East and other Administration meas-
ures were being challenged anew.
In quick succession were these de-
velopments:
John W. Davis, one-time Demo-
cratic Presidential nominee and mem-
ber of the American League, sought
permission to join the Hoosac Mills of
Massachusetts in challenging the
constitutionality of AAA processing
taxes. The House case is set for
argument Dec. 9.s
Vernon A. Vrooman, of Des Moines,
filed a plea to join the Government
defense in the same case on behalfs
of the League for Economic Equality,i
"an organization supported by farm-
ers and friends in four of the corn beltk
states-Iowa, Minnesota, NebraskaI
and South Dakota."t
The Government, replying to a pleay
of eight Louisiana rice millers for anr
injunction against processing tax
payments, contended an injunctiony
was barred by law and that the rem-C
edy of the millers was to "pay firstC
and litigate after.",

to teach.
Dr. Muyskens was a student of Dr.
Clarence Meader, professor of gen-
eral linguistics, and under the great
scholar's influence, he developed his
theory, now proven a fact, that de-
fects in speech are caused by physi-
ological factors. This theory is a
radical change from that which held
that speech defects were caused large-
ly by psychological factors, and it is
this latter theory, in Dr. Muyskens'
opinion, which has greatly retarded
the basic work of speech correction.
The basis for the study of speech
correction which is being developed
by Dr. Muyskens is tht all charac-
teristics of speech are formed before
birth, and during the first three
years of a person's life. In this early
period, heredity, and then bottle-
feeding and thumb-sucking play a
large part, he said, for the last two
disarrange the bones of the head, and
deform the are of the roof of the
mouth. Other influences, however,
play an even larger part.
Nourishment, or the lack of it, is
the most important of these. In the
case of under-nourishment, he said,
a poor balance of the chemical qual-
ities of the body is formed, and all
speech correction must be based on
a study of these early conditions.
"The speech process," said Dr. Muy-
skens, "is the end product of the func-
tions of the body tissues as they were
in their early state."
Dr. Muyskens decries the common

Japanese Talky

In North China
Some Militarist, Civilian
Leaders Face Showdown
On Imperialism
TOKIO, Nov. 22. - (Friday) - (A')
-- Sources close to the government
said Japanese militaristsand oppos-
ing civilian leaders faced a show-
down today over the North China
situation with the life of the cabinet
in the balance.
The issue was expected to be de-
bated at a cabinet session with Koki
Hirota, the foreign minister, leading
the civilian group, and Gen. Yoshi-
yuki Kawashima, minister of war,
representing the militarists.
Hirota, informed sources said, fa-
vors a compromise on the North
China issue which would allow the
Chinese national government to re-
gain a considerable degree ofrau-
thority in the five northern prov-
inces.
This plan was recommended by
Akira Ariyoshi, ambassador to China,
who consulted with Generalissimo
Chiang Kai-Shek, Chinese national
government leader, in Nanking yes-
terday..
(Chinese dispatches said Japanese
officers in China were impatient at
the delay.)
The proposed declaration of auto-
nomy by the five provinces has been
"postponed for the time being" in re-
sponse to the urgent instructions of
Chiang Kai-Shek, the Rengo (Jap-
anese) news agency reported from
Tientsin.

Short Hours Are

League Council Is Able To
Reverse Board's Action
In MeetingMonday
By ELSIE A. PIERCE
By an overwhelming majority vote
of 53-17 the League Board of Repre-
sentatives yesterday flatly rejected
the proposal of the League Under-
graduate Council of the League to
advance women's closing hours on
Friday nights from 1:30 a.m. to 12:30
a.m.
The Council will meet again Mon-
day to take final action and by a
two-thirds majority can pass the rul-
ing, even over the veto of the Board.
The ruling to change the closing
hours from 1:30 to 12:30 a.m. was
passed Monday by the Council, but in
)a special meeting held 'yesterday
noon, a revision was made to the
effect that junior women who are
eligible according to the University
rules be given 1:30 a.m. permission
Saturday nights.
Kavanagh Presides
Maureen Kavanagh, '36, president
of the Assembly, who presided at the
Board meeting, said, in commenting
on the vote, "the sentiment of the
group was that the proposed change
on Friday nights would be advisable
only if all classes be given 1:30 am.
permission on Saturdays, as is now
the rule for Fridays."
The move of the Council in pro-
posing the change came as a surprise
Monday, since a referendum 'among
campus women taken a month ago
revealed that they were opposed to
any changes. Nineteen out of the
20 sororities voted down the proposal,
and it was also vetoed in the Assem-
bly, the representative organization
of independent women. The matter
was also brought up before the Sen-
ate committee on student affairs, but
was tabled.
Seeley Speaks
Jean Seeley, '36, president of the
League, stated that although "the
vote of the Board will be given the
most serious consideration when the
matter is taken up before the Council,
I shall urge the members to overrule
the veto. I cannot speak for ether
members of the Council, but I per-
sonally feel that we should act for
what we believe is tlie good of the
women."
Although she said that she believed
the vote of the 40 sorority and 36
independent women was representa-
tive of the opinion of the campus,
she explained that the Council was
attempting to act in the best inter-
ests of the women.
"The women may be opposed to the
change now," she continued, "but in
time they will see the advisability of
our action."
Miss Seeley and Winifred Bell, '36,
chairman of the Judiciary Council
and a member of the League Council,
attended the meeting of the Board,
and explained the action of the Coun-
cil, and urged that the rule be passed.
The reason given by Miss Seeley
and Miss Bell was that the Friday
night permission had proven detri-
mental to the health of women stu-
dents, because of the new Saturday
class ruling put into effect this fall.
