Nation-Wide Below Zero
Weather Brings State
Death Total To 27
Ann Arbor's continued cold wave,
eased by rising temperatures yester-
day, is due for a new low today.
The new cold wave, which it is,
predicted will take the mercury far
below zero, is expected to sweep the
entire state, according to the As-
sociated Press.
Although the temperature here
took a decided drop early yesterday
morning, it rose all during the day,
and after 12 hours of continuous sub-
zero weather, reached 15 degrees
above.
7.1 Below Coldest
The lowest temperature for the
period from 7 p.m. Sunday to 7 p.m.
yesterday, as recorded by the Uni-
versity Observatory weather bureau,
stood at 7.1 degrees below zero. This
lacked only .3 degrees from equalling
the record low of the year.
The highest temperature during
the same period of time was reported
as 15.7 degrees above, and the mer-
cury stood at 12.8 degrees above zero
at 7 p.m. yesterday.
There was only a trace of snow-
fall recorded in the last 24 hours, and
the average wind-mileage stood at
about 11 miles per hour.
A fairly constant barometer, hov-
ering around 29 the entire day, in-
dicated little possibility of change in
the state of the weather for today,
the weather bureau said.

Haarlow Is Held To
Two Goals In Game
Northwestern's Defeat Of
Ohio Raises Michigan In
Conference Standing
CHICAGO, Jan. 27.- (P)--Mich-
igan's Wolverines, clamping on a
tight defense that held Bill Haarlow
and the rest of the Maroons to a
minimum number of field goals,
crushed Chicago here tonight, 45-22,,
in a lively, rough game.
Tamagno, assigned to guard Haar-
low, the Big Ten's leading scorer,
held the slender Maroon star to two,
field goals, one in each period. While
holding Haarlow, Captain Tamagno
dropped in five of the Wolverines' 19
field goals. Haarlow acded ten points
to his total, cashing in on six of eight
attempts made possible by Tamagno's
close guarding. The Michigan leader
was put out on personals late in the
game, but his successor, Earl Meyers
held Haarlow safe until the final gun.
Michigan led from the start and atf
half time held a 22-12 margin. The
Chicago attack collapsed before it
really got started when early in the
first half Bill Lang, Haarlow's running
mate, suffered a dislocated shoulder.
The injury will probably keep him out
for the balance of the season.
The victory was Michigan's fourth
in seven starts and elevated them a
notch in the Conference race as Ohio
State bowed to Northwestern.

He was given the choice of 90 days

The House previously had voted

Hcld Bonds. President Advises
In the second of two statements
issuing quickly from the White House,
however, the President opened a drive
to lessen the strain on the Treasury
by arguing to veterans that they
should not cash their bonds but hold
them as "nest eggs." He apparently
was taking cognizance of the spending
splurge which followed loans up to 50
per cent on the certificates in 1931.
Administration leaders have esti-
mated that not more than one mil-
lion dollars will be needed to meet
the first rush of demands for cash-
ing the bonds, and the President ap-
parently intended to keep the figure
below this if possible.
Within a little more than two hours
after the Senate voted, Mr. 1toosevelt
said in his first statement that the
treasury and the Veterans Adminis-
tration had been directed to pay as
soon as, possible.
Warns Of Magnitude.
He warned of the "magnitude" of
the task -- requiring "between 2,500
and 3,000 additional personnel work-
ing for approximately six months to
do this job." He urged "patience"
upon veterans. Refrain from writing
follow-up letters after filing an ap-
plication, he advised.
So certain was the outcome of the
Senate vote that even before it was
taken, authoritative sources disclosed
the Government Printing Office had
started its presses rolling on applica-
tions to be filled in by veterans even
before the Senate met.
Both Michigan Senators, James
Couzens and Arthur H. Vandenberg,
voted to sustain the veto.
Applications Ready Soon
Shortly after the President spoke,
Secretary Morgenthau told news-
papermen that the treasury would be
ready to pay off by next June 15 -
the date when the bonds are cash-
able. He estimated a total of 38,000,-
000 separate bonds will be needed.
Simultaneously, the Veterans Ad-
ministration issued a statement of in-
structions to veterans, advising them
that applications would be ready
probably by late tomorrow.
All these swift actions were taken
in the face of previous treasury warn-
ings that it would "not help the bond
marget" and would increase next
year's deficit possibly to $5,500,000,-
000.

For In Annual Report
Of President
Bursley Describes
'Serious Situation'
Transference Of Facilities
To Apartment Rooms
Effected
By WILLIAM J. DE LANCEY
Formal r e p o r t s of executive
heads of University divisions, includ-
ing a demand by Dean Joseph A.
Bursley for action to prevent an im-
minent rooming crisis, were released
today in the complete President's Re-
port for 1934-35.
Emphasizing that a steady rise in
the student population of the Uni-
versityuhas been accompanied by a
continued decrease in rooming facili-
ties, Dean Bursley described the pres-
ent condition as a "very serious sit-
uation." As a solution to the prob-
lem he reiterated his suggestion in
last year's report: "The University
will have to adopt some definite pro-
gram for the solution of the housing
problem."
Householder Reacts
Citing the housing analysis of Dean
F. B. Wahr, Dean Bursley pointed out
that the diminuition of rooming fa-
cilities has been effected by a trans-
feral of former rooming houses into
small apartment houses not available
to students. He also pictured the av-
erage householder reacting to ex-
cessively high costs of living by not
refurnishing many rooms.
A further indication that a critical
situation had become increasingly
crucial is shown by the report of
Dean Wahr. He writes: "the number
of rooms listed for our inspection and
which are really approvable are grow-
ing less. The prices have dropped
somewhat, due to economic condi-
tions and as a result many rooms are
not being refurnished and kept up
as they should be.
"There is also considerable crowd-
ing of both by the student and house-
holder alike.
'Outgrown Accommodations'
"A check upon the approved room-
ing houses during the course of the
semester revealed comparatively few
vacant rooms and if the University
is to expand and increase in enroll-
ment, some way must be found to
provide adequate and modern facili-
ties for the housing of the student
body. We have practically outgrown
the accomodations which the house-
holders of the city have been able to
offer," Dean Wahr writes.
During the year 69 fraternities
were inspected by Dean Wahr who
stated conditions in most instances
were suitable to the inspector.
The rooming deficiency was made
more acute by the removal from use

fiction and $20 in poetry, entries in
the contest from more than 70 fresh-
men are expected by Professor Wells.
As an additional incentive to those
competing in the poetry contest, the
Hopwood Committee has decided toI
award annual memberships in the
College Poetry Society of America
and one year's subscription to the
magazine of that society, "College
Verse," to the six best entries in that
field.
The judges in the contest include
Prof. R. W. Dowden, director of the
Hopwood Awards; Dr. Frank E. Rob-
bins, assistant to the President and
managing editor of the University of
Michigan Press; and Prof. C. E. Burk-I
lund of the engineering college Eng-
lish department.
The freshman contest is conducted
separately from the main Hopwood
Awards contest, and the twofold pur-
pose of the Hopwood Committee in
conducting this contest includes:
(1) Stimulation of writing talent
of students early in their college life.
(2) The opportunity given to fresh-
men to compete in a contest in which
their opportunities would not be dis-
counted by competition from upper-
classmen and seniors who have the
benefit of longer training and greater
experience.

That the character of Katherine
Mansfield's writing and her inner self
were inseparable and that her life
and works were symbolized by a sur-
prising "wholeness" were the disting-
uishing features of the great woman
writer, in the opinion of J. Middleton
Murry, noted English critic, her hus-
band.
"There was no distinction," he said,
"between her deliberate and casual
selves. Her stories and her letters all
have the same sponteneity. There is
no one in English literature who has
this sponteneity, unless it be John
Keats, who was, of course, a writer
her bitter, cynical stories that he
became acquainted with her. About
1909, travelling in Germany, where,
she was forced to live on a frugal
allowance, she wrote her first story,
and this reached the attention of
Mr. Murry, who was at this time
editor of an undergraduate magazine
at Oxford. He wrote her asking for
another story, and they began a
steady correspondance. -
When he did actually meet Kath-
erine Mansfield a short time later,
Mr. Murry fell in love with her, and
they were married. He pointed out
that since the writing of that first
story, Miss Mansfield had written a
