Function To Be Informal;
Steinle And Zwick Bands
Are Engaged
Nov.13 Determined
As Date For Dance
Intramural Building To Be
Location; Union, League
To Cooperate
By TUURE TENANDER
An all-campus informal dance will
be held in the Intramural Building
Friday, Nov. 13, in order to raise
funds for the Men's Dormitories
project, it was announced yesterday
by Hubert Bristol, '37, chairman of
the committee in charge of the dance.
Two orchestras, Bob Steinle and
Charlie Zwick, regular bands at the
Union and the League, have been en-
gaged to furnish the music for the
dance to last from 9 p.m. to 1 a.m:
Tickets for the dance will be $1 per
couple.
League And Union To Close
In cooperation with the project,
the League and the Union have both
agreed to forgo their activities on
that night. The committee on Men's
Dormitories feels that, with the
League and the Union ballrooms both
closed and with the active support
of members of the many campus or-
ganizations backing the movement,
the dance is sure to be a success.
The Intramural building was ob-
tained for the dance through Director
of Atheltics Fielding H. Yost, Bristol
said yesterday. It will be the first
time in many years that a student
dance other than the J-Hop has been
held in the spacious gymnasium.
Bristol, a member of the Commit-
tee on Men's Dormitories, is being
assisted by Bruce Telfer, '38, and
Ernest Jones, '38, who are in charge
of publicity.
Tickets On Sale Soon
According to Bristol, this initial
project of the Committee on Men's
Dormitories is expected to raise a
considerable amount for the dormi-
tory fund, in order that the project
can go on with a definite sum upon
which to build. Tickets for the dance
are expected to go on sale early this
week and can be obtained by mem-
bers of the organizations which are
supporting the project.
The League and Union decided last
week to close their ballrooms in order
that the project dance would have an
open night.
Herbert Wolf, '37, president of the
Union, said yesterday that the Union
was very willing to close theirball-
room in order to cooperate with the
Men's Dormitories project.
Shippers Will
Not Deal With
Striking Men
NEW YORK, Oct. 31.-(A)-Mem-
bers of the International Seamen's
Union voted tonight to call an im-
mediate strike on their own initiative
after officers of the organization op-
posing the proposal were noisily over-
ruled.
The action climaxed an uproarious
meeting at the Cooper Union during
which more than five persons were
evicted from the hall.
The vote, in line with proposals to
support dissatisfied marine workers
on the Pacific coast, threatened to
complete an incipient tieup of ship-
ping throughout the country.
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 31.-(P)-
The Shipowners' Committee issued a
statement today saying that it would!
be "useless" to resume negotiations
while 37,000 maritime workers are

on strike.
The statement, issued by T. G.
Plant, chairman of' the committee,
replied 'to a message sent to Secre-
tary of Labor Frances Perkins by the
joint negotiations committee of the
seven unions on strike.
Mervyn Rathbone, secretary of the
Maritime Federation of the Pacific,
informed Miss Perkins that the
unions "are willing at all times to
negotiate acceptable agreements with
ship owners."
Plant 'declared that the shipowners

Regent Seeks
To Dismiss 10
Faculty_'Reds'
Murf in Admits He Will Not
Instigated Congressional
Investigation,' However
President Ruthven
Refuses Comment
Regents Stone And Cram
Non - Committal; Beal,
Crowley Back Freedom
Regent James O. Murfin, Detroit
attorney, last night reaffirmed his
statement that "Communists should
be dismissed" from the University
faculty, but admitted that he had no
intention of instigating a "congres-
sional investigation" to discover the
10 faculty members who voted for
Earl Browder, Communist candidate
for president, in The Daily's poll.
Contacted in Detroit by telephone,
Regent Murfin said, "If I learn any-
body on the taxpayers' payroll in
Ann Arbor is voting communistic, I
will work for his dismissal." He said
he would discuss the poll with Presi-
dent Ruthven this week.
Regent David H. Crowley, attor-
ney-general of Michigan who was
reached in Detroit, told The Daily
"The only thing I am concerned with
is that these 10 professors don't try
to teach the students their beliefs.
They are within their rights to be-
lieve whatever they wish."
Regent Junius E. Beal, Ann Arbor,
said he believed in a "broad freedom
of speech." He referred to Hyde Park
in London, "where all the "isms" get
together and thrash it out," as in-
dicative of his attitude toward the
faculty poll. "I am surprised there'
weren't more Browder votes," he said.
One member of the Board of Re-
gents, Ralph Stone, Detroit banker,
refused to comment either on the poll
or on the probability of action by the
Regents. President Ruthven likewise
refused to comment other than say
he had not talked with Regent Mur-
fin about the matter.
The results of the faculty poll were
Landon, 276; Foosevelt, 271; Thom-
as, 33; Browder, 10; and Lemke, 1.
Mrs. Esther M. Cram of 'Flint, the
woman member of the Board of Re-
gents, maintained that while "we
have a perfect right to demand high
standards of conduct, high standards
of intellect and high generosity to-
wards others in our faculty," if the
faculty comes up to those standards!
no more can be asked. "We have a
pretty fine faculty now," she af-
firmed, refusing to comment on the
Browder vote in the poll.
The Daily refused to give out in-
formation regarding the poll to a re-
porter of the Detroit Times.

PERPIGNAN, France, Oct. 31.-()
-The Spanish insurgent cruiser Ca-
narias, reappearing off the Bay of
Rosas after an earlier battle with
coastal batteries, was reported late
today to have sunk a government
gunboat with a single shell.
Spanish authorities said the gun-
boat was destroyed after it had
opened fire on the cruiser for refusing
to give its identity.
An unconfirmed report said the
Canarias was convoying freighters
loaded with Moors, and planned to
land them on the government coast.
Earlier, Catalan coastal batteries
had driven the warship away after
the cruiser had killed several fisher-
men and wounded 30 persons by
shelling the coastline of the Bay.
Near French Coast
At times during the day, the Ca-
narias was cruising only a few miles
off the French coast. The French
government, however, had sent no
warships up to this afternoon to pa-
trol French waters.
MADRID, Oct. 31.-(IP)-Fascist
warplanes twice bombed Madrid in
four trips over the Spanish capital
today as yesterday's toll of death
from the air rose to 189.
An American girl, Virginia McKay
of Colorado Springs, Colo., escaped
injury when a single bomb landed
near her at 5:20 p.m. during the
third visit by the insurgent aircraft.
The aviators circled the city twice
to reconnoiter.
They returned on two additional
flights to hurl bombs into the Social-
ist government capital which the
Fascist army had hoped to capture
today.
The fourth trip was at dusk.
Two explosions echoed through the1
city in the darkness.1
Pedestrians scurried for shelter.
Anti-aircraft and machine guns
rattled fire at the bombers which
swooped above the war ministry
building, a short distance from the
Associated Press office.
The American girl had been vis-

sirens sounded. As she huddled in

Climaxes Campaign At Big
Rally In Madison Square;
Dooms Monopolies.
NEW YORK, Oct. 31.-( P)-Presi-
dent Roosevelt drove his campaign to
a climax tonight by giving what he
called his "answer" to "those who,
silent about their own plans, ask us
to state our objectives."
Over and over again he repeated:
"We have just begun to fight."
The chief executive spoke to a gi-
gantic Democratic rally in Madison
Square Garden, submitting his record
to the nation, welcoming the hatred
of those favoring government "by
organized money," taking a final fling
at Republican administrations, and
giving his own definition of the cam-
paign issue as follows:
"In 1932 the issue was the restora-
tion of American democracy; and the
American peple were in a mood to
win. They did win.
"In 1936 the issue is the preserva-
tion of their victory. Again, they are
in a mood to win. Again they will
win.,
He said the New Deal's vision for
the future contains more than prom-
ises, but in outlining objectives he
left for the future what steps, legis-
lative or otherwise, would be taken to
reach them.
"Of course, we will continue to seek
to improve working conditions for the
workers of America," he said. "To
reduce hours over-long, to increase
wages that spell starvation, to end
the labor of children, to wipe out
sweat shops.
"Of course we will continue every
effort to end monopoly in business, to
support collective bargaining, to stop
unfair competition, to abolish dis-
honorable trade practices.
"For all these, we have just begun
to fight."

Strong Puts Illini Ahead
3 To 0 By Place-Kick
In Second Quarter
Touchdown Results
From Blocked Punt
Sweet Scores Only Goal
For Michigan After Long
Run By Smithers
By GEORGE J. ANDROS
A fighting young Michigan football
eleven that outgained its opponent
by 170 yards was halted on its come-
back trail yesterday afternoon in the
Stadium, by Illinois before a Home-
coming crowd of 35,000, 9 to 6.
The Wolverines were set back on
their heels in the first half by a light-
er but swift-moving Illini defense, and
when they came back in the last
quarter they could score only once,
having one more touchdown called
back when a successful lateral pass
was ruled a forward.
Coach Harry Kipke's team gained
237 yards from scrimmage, 138 of
them on eight completed forward
passes, while the Indians were held
News of Northwestern's 6-0 de-
feat of Minnesota, with special
pictures of the game rushed from
Chicago.. . Page 7
to a total gain for the afternoon of
66 yards. The Varsity could not cash
in on scoring opportunities, however,
while Illinois scored once as the re-
sult of a blocked punt and took ad-
vantage ofra fumble deep in Michi-
gan territory to move into position
for a field goal. Michigan backs made
five fumbles in the course of the con-
test.
When Cedric Sweet fumbled on his
own 11-yard line on the last play of
the first quarter, Bob Castelo, Illinois
end, recovered. After three plunges
into the Michigan line had moved the
ball to the four, Dave Strong dropped
back to the 15 and place-kicked a
field goal from a bad angle to put the
Illini ahead, 3 to 0.
Illinois Scores Again
With eight minutes to go in the
second period, Coach Bob Zuppke's
men scored again. Sweet's punt from
the Michigan 20 was blocked by end
Ken Nelson, the ball bounding into
the end zone, where it was recovered
for a touchdown by Clifford Kuhn,
scrappy Indian guard. This complet-
ed the Illinois scoring.
Don Siegel, star sophomore tackle
on the Michigan line, blocked one of
Strong's punts with a minute to go
in the third quarter, guard Fred
Ziem recovering for Michigan on the
Illinois 31-yard line. Smithers found
a huge hole over his own left guard
to carry the ball to the ninse as the
third period ended.
Sweet drove over right guard to the
two, put the ball on the two-foot line
on a plunge over center on the second
down, then moved to within half a
foot of the goal on the next play over
the same spot. On the last down the
big Wolverine fullback pounded
througha hole at center to score
with ease.
Touchdown Called Back
Earlier in the third period the
Michigan team scored a touchdown
that was called back by the officials.
Smithers broke through guard at Il-
linois'48-yard line and ran to the
35 before he was downed. Here the
Varsity was penalized for offside play
and used the next two downs getting
back to scratch.
On the third play Smithers com-
pleted a forward to quarterback Bill
Barclay on the 25, and the Michigan
pilot tossed the ball to Ritchie, who
crossed the goal line standing up.
Referee Lyle Clarno maintained that
Barclay's pass to Ritchie was a for-
ward rather than a lateral and ruled

the whole play incomplete.
Smithers tried for a goal from
placement with the pall on the 34
when the third period was five min-
utes old, but his attempt fell short.
A 16-yard gain on a pass from Smith-
ers to Smick and then a running play
with a lateral to the former from
Ritchie had brought the ball deep in-
to Illinois territory.
The Wolverines failed to finish out
successfully their only two scoring

Roulette Wheel Wins FraternityI
Contest For Lambda Chi Alpha'

Ingeniously decorated fraternity
houses, convival alumni and inter-
mittent showers characterized Home-
coming yesterday. F
Lambda Chi Alpha won the cup
awarded to the fraternity having the
best decoration idea. The prize-
winning Lambda Chis had a large
roulette wheel erected upright on;
their front lawn with a revolving ar-
row spinning around the race of a F
dial stopping on either an "I" or an:
"M" instead of the customary divi- I
sions of "rouge et noire."
Alpha Rho Chi was awarded sec- I
ond place for their execution of a
political version of homecoming. Two
figures, one an elephant and the F
other a donkey were shown running

lege, Prof. Lewis C. Vandervelde of
the history department and Miller
Sherwood, '37, president of the Men's
Council. The cup was awarded by
Goldman Brothers.
Homecoming was the occasion of
further exhibitions of ingenuity at
the game. A limited number of de-
signated spectators on the Michigan
side of the Stadium were given sheets
of paper to hold up during the half
when so directed by the cheer lead-
ers. The two individuals responsible
for the "H" and the "I" in "Mich-
igan" apparently got their signals
mixed, according to onlookers from
the other side, but "Illini" went off
satisfactorily, they said.

ST. LOUIS, Oct. 31.-(P)-Gov. Alfj
M. Landon pledged a restoration of
"good government" bringing "full re-
covery and reemployment," in a final
campaign address tonight, contend-
ing New Deal "broken promises" were
"holding us back" by destroying con-
fidence.
"It has tried to run from its rec-
ord instead of on its record," the
Republican nominee said of his Dem-
ocratic opponent's administration,
a dding that it was "shocking' 'to seekF
reelection "on the basis of recovery"
when 11,000,000 were unemployed.
Landon told his St. Louis audience
in the municipal auditorium, and the
nation over the radio, that "the two
biggest jobs" today were getting the1
11,000,000 back to work and "stopping
the pouring of our money through the
great political tieve at Washington."
"The two jobs are wrapped to-
gether," the Kansan said. "We can-
not live forever off tomorrow's in-
come. We cannot live forever by bor-!
rowing from our children. And we
cannot live forever a united nation
with one fifth of our working !pop-
ulation dependent upon the govern-
ment."
For the spending "job," Landon
promised a balanced budget. Then
he asked:
"Why are there still 11,000,000 un-
employed?
"The answer is that enterprise and

Prof. Dorr Explains Method
Of Splitting Ticket Correctly

Directions on how to vote a split
ticket were issued yesterday by Prof.
Harold M. Dorr of the political sci-
ence department.
"People should not hesitate to
split a ticket," Professor Dorr said,
"but they do because they are afraid
they will have their ballot thrown
out if they mark the ticket wrong.
"By following the instructions care-
fully they may prevent having their'
ballots thrown out. If the voter fol-

more candidates are to be elected
for the same office, and you desire
to vote for candidates not on your
party ticket, make a cross in the
square before the names of the can-
didates for whom you wish to vote
on the other ticket, and strike out
an equal number of names on your
party ticket for that office.
"If you do not desire to vote any
party ticket, do not make a cross in
the circle at the head of any ticket,
but make a cross in the square be-
