Tonight Renner And Kipke 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.

Off For Flight To Antarctica 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 James W.

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."

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 Convicted By Federal Court GRAND RAPIDS, Nov. 21.-UP)- George Foulkes, former Michigan Congressman, and Dan J. Gerrow, a member of the Democratic State Cen- tral Committee, were convicted Thursday in Federal Court of con- spiring to "assess" postmasters for contributions to Foulkes' campaign fund. Judge Fred M. Raymond said he would sentence them, and also El- mer Smith, of Paw Paw, Monday. Trial of Smith on a charge of so- liciting campaign funds from Fed- eral officers in Federal buildings was just starting when the jury, after 59 minutes of deliberation, convicted Foulkes and Gerow. Smith thereupon changed his plea from not guilty to nolo contendere. by to make his speech while enroute from Washington to Lansing, will speak on "The Significance of the Social Security Act."

Ann Arbor Hit By First Cold Spell Of Year' P Factors Early In Life By ARNOLD S. DANIELS Prof. John H. Muyskens has the distinction of being able to say that he need never complain that he is not appreciated by his pupils. For scarce- ly a day passes when he does not re- ceive a number of letters thanking him for the work which he has done as head of the University speech lab- oratories and associate professor of phonetics. He is also greatly pleased by the progress which the completely new method of speech study and correc- tion, of which he is the leader, is making throughout the country. His work in bio-linguistics has attracted country-wide attention, and he has received from many of the large Contest Over Farm Program1 HotlyFought 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.", The Consolidated Gas Co. of Newt York, which dominates the metro-i politan field, let it be known through one of its subsidiaries that it did not intend to register under the holding company act.t The Delaware Electric Power Co.9 challenged the law in a Federal courtt suit filed in Wilmington, and the Philadelphia Electric Co., one of theo United Gas Improvement Company'st largest subsidiaries, filed a similar ac- tion. 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 (Continued on Page 2) Japanese Talky Over Situation 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. The newspaper Asahi said when Council Acts For Women's Best Interests, Despite CampusOpinion Short Hours Are BackedBy Seeley 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.
