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' TO REPREENT U,S. AT WORLD.

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 NONSENSE NO VEL PLAY AFFORDS A-MUSEMENT "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.
