BATTLE TO A DRAW
(Special to The Summer Daily)
Jersey City, N. J., July 27.-Benny
Leonard and Lew Tendler fought a
12-round, no-decision bout here to-
night, in which honors slightly favor-
ed the champion in the final rounds.
Newspaper men at the ring differed
to some extent in their opinions. The
majority appeared to favor Leonard
at the end of the bout, although some
declared for 'a draw. Tendler had the
better of the first five rounds, but
Leonard finished strong.
Leonard was asked why he did not
knock out Tendler and replied with a
blood-smeared grin, "Southpaws are
hard to solve."
Approximately 75,000 persons saw
the bout. The gate receipts were -in
excess of $450,000.y'

With the beginning of the. fall ses-
sion, the University Health service
will be housed iV? neV quarters. This
change was made possible this spring
when the union of the Medical schools
made the children's annex building
of the Homoeopathic hospital, Wash-
tenaw and Geddes avenues, available.
The buildings and grounds depart-
ment is now .engaged in making the
necessary changes in ths building, in-
to which the Health service will move
next month.
Facilities will be greatly increased
by this transfer, according to Dr.
Warren E. Forsythe, director of the
Health service. The dispensary will
be downstairs, while the upper floor
will be occupied by bed patients.
"This opens a new phase of the Uni-
versity Healith service," said Dr. For-
sythe. "Minor illnesses, those which
require merely a little care, and nose
and throat operations, will be cared
for by the Health service Instead of
sending those acases to the alreadyf
overcrowded hospital."
North Pole Discoveror,
Eulogized In H o b bs Article
Prof. Arthur H. Blanchard of the'
highway engineering' and tr'ansport
department, has been chosen to be the
United States representative to the
fourth convention of the Permanent
International Associatio of Road con-
resses next May in Seville, Spain.
This association wasorganized in
1908, with headquarters at Paris. Its
membership includes representatives
of governments, corporations and in-
dividual members. The object' of the'
association is to promote good roads
and highway transport throughout the
world.
May Name U.' S. Commissioners
ThdUnited States is the only world
power not affiliated with, the associa-
tion. Professor Blanchard and others
have tried repeatedly since 1910 to
bring the matter before Congress, but
various obstacles have arisen to pre-
vent is consideration. They have in-
terested Senator DuPont of Delaware,
and it is probable that the -question of
a subsidy grant for the support of Am-
erican commissioners will soon be put
up to Congress. This done, the n'ext
road congress will be heldin the Un-
ited States in 1926.
According to,. the plan of the con-
gress, topics are assigned tohbe re-
ported upon by delegates from the
various countries represented. Pro-
fessor Blanchard, as the United States
representatives, has charge of the ap-
pointment of 82 of the reporters-.
They will prepare papers on the
topics assigned them., and will turn
them in to Professor Blancard, who
compiles them. As. reporters, it is not
necessary that they should be present'
at the congress, although about half
have signified their intentions of go-
ing.
Ten Michigan Men Named
Ten Michigan ren, three of whom
are members of the University facul-
ty, have been named as reporters.
Professors Blanchard and H. E. Riggs,
of the department of civil engineering,
will have topics under the head of
"The Development of Motor Trans-
port," and Prof. Herschel F. Smith, of
the highway engineering and motor
transport department, will report on
a subdivision of "The Problem of
Traffic."
Professor Blanchard was connect-
ed with the Permanent International
commission in 1910, having his office
at Paris for eight months. He was
present at the second congress in
Brussels in 1910, and at the third
in London in 1913. It is because he '
has been so closely connected with

"Five Minutes Before the Big Show"
Gives Sidelight on Circus
Life
(By W. C. Trotter)
Humor, pathos, bathos, joy, terpsi-
chore, jazz, glimpses of circus life, all
vied, for honors on the program of the
Summer Spotlight, presented last
night by campus performers -in Hill
auditorium. Seven acts there were,
seven acts chuck full of unbroken in-
terest and variety. Two-thirds of the
large assembly hall was filled long
before the curtain rose for the first
act.
Tang and Tavares, guitar, artists,
first appeared on the stage. After two.
selections they were joined by. Max
Shaffer, '23E, and the trio played two
pieces, as well as furnishing the ac-
compa'niment for the quartette
The second act consisted of saxa-
phone selections, ably presented by
"Ted" Rhodes, '24,taccompanied by
Reule' Kenyon on the piano.
An adaptation of the South Ameri-
can tango, the creation of Gordon
Wier, '24, of opera fame, was the
third feature- Wier and Winifred
Smeaton, '24, danced in costume, and
werea tcalled back by the audience to
*repeat' their, act.
"Libby" Holman proved' a front row
favorite with her clever little songs,
one of which, "Prisms, Plums, and
Prune," is an original composition,
writen by herself.
"$99:90", an adaptation by AlWeeks
o fone of Stephen Leacock's "Nonsense
Novels", afforded much amusement.
"Some Dark Stuff", featuring James
H. Tuttle, '23E, assisted by. Carl-
Weinman, '24, was a blackface act,
with the usual line of patter and
song.
The last act, "Five Minutes Before
the Big Show", was elaborate and
showed considerable effort. Whether
the side show barker, with his mar-
velous feat of hypnotism, or the band
"line", was the most conspicuous
feature of the act is a uestion. The
fat lady, the hula-hula girl, the wild
man, and the thin man were all pre-
sented in true side show fas'hion.
KNOW YOUR UNITERSILTY
More than a million dollars was
spent on the building of the Michigan
Union, which was organized and in-
corporated under the laws of the state
of Michigan in 1904. The equipment
of the building which cost $200,000 is
not counted in the above. This is said
to be the largest and most fully equip-
ped men's club in the world.
