A swift series of conferences be- tween Edward VIII, his prime min- ister, and the queen mother appar-i ently were unsuccessful in their pur-1 pose to break the strong-willed ruler's determination to live his private life as he chooses. Leaves Before Dawn Speeding from Buckingham Palace shortly before dawn, he drove to his. secluded lodge at Fort Belvedere where Mrs. Simpson, alone save for servants, waited throughout the night while Edward argued their destinies. At the end of 48 hours the king still was defiant of the ultimatum of Prime Minister Stanley Baldwin, arch enemy of the ruler's marriage to a twice-divorced woman, laid before the king-that he and his cabinet would resign unless Edward bowed to their will. Far into the morning hours the constitutional storm over the mon- arch's believed desire to marry Mrs. Simpson raged from No. 10 Downing Street to .the farthest posts of the empire Persistent rumors that Baldwin speedily would force Edward's abdi- cation were not borne out by de- velopments during the day and night. Press ums Situation Authoritative opinion hardened into belief a solution for the impasse still could be attained. The British press association summed up the at- titude of parliament on the crisis in a statement which said: "The general opinion among members of parlia- ment tonight was that a way would be found out of the problem and not by abdication, resignations of the Baldwin government or by a general election." New and powerful elements entered the amazing drama when the domin- ions exerted their influence as auto- nomous units of Edward's realm. Do- minion representatives sought avoid- ance of any precipitous move which mightp preclude a quick decision on the future of the grown. Ice Carnival Concert, Urged To Swell Fund Projects Are Suggested For J-Hop Week-End By Dormitory Committee An ice carnival in the University hockey arena during the week-end of the J-Hop and a concert by the Chrysler Male Choir in Hill Audi- torium the day following the carnival were two projects suggested for the future discussed by the Committee on Men's Dormitories at its general meeting Wednesday. By means of the dormitory dance, the Committee swelled its funds to approximately $2,000, Hubert Bris- tol, '37, chairman of the dance com- mittee, announced at the meeting.- The returns from the dance, how- ever, Bristol pointed out, are not yet complete, for the sum already collect- ed is $920.63 with more than 300 tickets not yet turned in. When all the tickets have been accounted for, Bristol predicted, the profits from the dance, discounting the $500 expenses incurred, will approximate $500. Gilbert Tilles, '37, chairman of the Committee, calling the dance a suc- cess from the standpoints of both finances and arousing student inter- est, enumerated several sources which have pledged sums from the proceeds Contributor To Forum May Cut Ec. Blue Book A new way of cutting a bluebook was suggested yesterday in Economics 51 lecture but this time, strangely enough, by the professor. In view of the agitation throughj the columns of The Daily Forum fort a new system of marking and exam- ination in Ec. 51, Prof. Howard S. Ellis yesterday invited the author of the first article on this subject, an "A.M.," to attend the economics staff meeting yesterday afternoon and see how the examination is drawn up, This person was then to be ex- cused from the coming examination on the condition that he or she write another letter to the Forum of The Daily explaining exactly the method of drawing up the examination. This person would, furthermore, not be requested to withhold the questions from fellow classmates, but would merely be depended upon as "a citizen to respect the confidence of the staff. The student's grade would then be judged upon the other examinations taken in the course with the one next Wednesday disregarded entirely. Minimum Wage1 Is Established By Local Union 35 Cents Per Hour Wage For Student Workers Set Last Night The Student Workers Federation, meeting last night in the Union, es- tablished 35 cents an hour as a min- imum wage and appointed a com- mittee to meet with appointed rep- resentatives of the Uiversity to form a faculty-student group to deal with student problems. The Federation voted to offer full cooperation to the University admin- istration in enforcing the University standard of 35 cents an hour. They suggested as a means of enforcing the standard, to place approval cards in all businesses meeting the mini- mum requirements. Prof. John Dawson of the law school, speaking to the 50 members present, reminded'them that with the acquisition of power comes certain re- sponsibilities. He advised caution in making steps and suggested full co- operation with the University au- thorities. Earl Luby, '38, Willard Martinson, Grad., and Tom Downs, '38, were named members of a committee to confer with the administration on a proposed faculty-student board to consider student complaints. The move was suggested by the University this week.

The reason for this action was to lessen noise during the concert. ve Professors )f Training Table M. Cuncannon of the political science department. "It is especially a good move at an institution such as Mich- igan where it has evidently been shown that the players have not been getting enough to eat." Professor Cuncannon pointed out that the footballers do a great deal for the University and that at least provision should be made that they be in good physical condition. "No," was the answer Prof. Robert C. Angell of the sociology department gave when he was asked if he fa- vored the adoption of a training table for the gridiron team. "I don't be- lieve that they should be given more consideration than other students," he said.

The University of Michigan Band ensemble will follow the fanfare with "O God, Our Help in Ages. Past." Then the audience around the Bur- ton Memorial Tower will file inside Hill Auditorium where, at 4:30 p.m.' formal presentation of the bells will start with the University Glee Club off ering "Laudes atque Carmina.

W. Blakeman, coun selor of religion. The dedicatory ritual following the presentation ceremony at which the senior honor societies, Michigamua, Druids, Vulcans, Barristers and Ga- lens will act as ushers, has been an- nounced by Prof. Wilmot ?ratcaril- lonneur, as follows: "America"; two hymns, "A Mighty Fortress Is Our God," and "Now the Day is Over"; variations on "Ode to Joy," by Beethoven; Minuet by Mo- zart; "Laudes atque Carina," by Stanley; and "Preludium for Caril- lon," by Denyn. Fifty-three special invitations have been sent to carillonneurs and musi- cians in the United States, Canada and Europe by Prof. Earl V. Moore, director of the School of Music. All faculty, students, and townspeople are invited to the dedication, accord- ing to Dr. Frank Robbins, assistant to the president. The Board of' Regents will attend the dedication, having set their monthly meeting a week late in order to be in town for the ceremony. At their meeting today at least one im- portant appointment of the presi- dent will be considered. Largest Bell A carillon is judged more by the size and weight of the largest bell than by the number of bells it con- tains, according to Prof. Earl V. Moore, director of the School of Music. By this standard, the Baird Carillon is the world's third largest. With its 53 bells, the largest of which weighs 12 tons, the Michigan carillon follows that of the Riverside Church, New York, which has 72 bells, largest 20 tons, and that of the University of Chicago Chapel which also has 72 bells, largest 18 tons. The Baird bells have a range of four and one-half octaves, while the first two mentioned have six octaves. A score or more carillons of the four-octave range are located in va- rious parts of this country, Professor Moore said. All of the bells were cast, tuned, and erected by English firms. Certain American bell founders have produced some intermediate bells of a quality equal to the im- ported ones but as yet have not produced large or extremely small bells-which, he says, present great difficulty in the matter of tuning and tone quality.

The decision was announced to- Pseudo-Sophistication Is No Lure, For Michigan's Football Heroes] By BETSY ANDERSON The words of a popular song of some years back claimed "you gotta be a football hero to get along with a beautiful girl," but neglected to ad- vising the beautiful girls how to get along with the football hero. In order to remedy this defect, several of the members of the 1935 squad were contacted as to their opinion of the Michigan woman. Michigan women were generally conceded to be good dates, although a general cry arose against sophisti- cation. However, several claimed that it did not exist here and threat the "pseudo-sophistication," as one player aptly phrased it, attempted by many of the women outweighed their natural good qualities. Naturalness was the one quality unanimously sought by all, and "Wally" Hook added friendliness and sincerity. that while he thought that being a football player occasionally aided in getting an initial date, many of the new women here succumbing to the "glory stuff," as he called it, it was the personality of the player that won out in the long run. There was quite a bit of diversified opinion on the subject of whether being a football player helped in getting dates. Brennan claimed it usually did, although Cooper and Frank Bissell both said that it only impressed the new and average woman on campus, the more mature students being more interested in the player as an individual. Earle Luby, while admitting that there were good-looking women on campus, claimed that "dating here as a whole is in the hole" and blamed the women students for much of the formality that exists here. Contrary to the ponular idea that
