Yost, direc- tor of athletics at the University. All members of the organization are prohibited from hiring college play- ers while still in college and permit- ting playing under assumed names were the most important rulings ef- fected by the association. "I am pleased that they take this stand,"' said Coach Yost. "I hope thai they will stick to it to the letter." A fine of $500 is provided for infractions of this.rule, and for a second offense the penalty is expulsion. To insure the enforcement of these rules, each club is required to make a deposit of $500, which is forfeited in case of breach of rules. That the football promoters are anxious to get in the good graces of the public is,,.apparent by the code of regulations passed at the conference, which it is expected will keep the sport safe from unsportsmanlike play- ing. BULLETIN Last fall several Notre Dame and Illinois players were declared inelig- ble. to participate in further collegiate competition of any kind because they played with two professional teams at Taylorville, Ill. Much commotion was daused and a general cleanup was started. It was found that at several other colleges athletes had been play- ing for money In football and base- ball. Agitatio'n ensued in all the colleges and this question was much discussed by alumni, undergraduates and coach- es. The fact that summer baseball provided such an attractive way to make money also caused argument as to whether this should not'be allow- ed. No change in the old eligibility rules has been made, but steps have been taken for stricter enforcement and observance of amateur regula- tions.,, STUDE[NTS SEE CITY ON. FIRST. EXCURSION TRIP OF SUMMER SESSION Conducted by Carlton Wells, direc- tor of the Summer session excursions, e y , s t - GIVES THREE REASONS LOCATION OF PROJECT IN ALABAMA FOft (By special Wire) Washington,-June 3,0.-The admin- istration, speaking today through the White House 'on the eve of the called strike of 400,000 union .railroad shop workers, declared its determination to stand squarely behind the railroad labor board-it was announced late last night. This is because of the de- vision of the labor board that th4 shop craftsmen have decided to quite work tomorrow, The administration's view, set forth in language as forcible as the §poke= inar could command, was that the labor board is the one agency of the government dealing with disputes be- tween the road and their employees and therefore it would be backed up by the government. WHITE EXPLAINS PRACTICAL VALUE. iOF MUSCLE SHOALI1 TAHITI SOURCE OF ROMANCE STORIES. (By Associate.d Press) Chicago, June 30.-Federal inter- vention by the United States railroad labor board today failed to halt the strike of 400,000 railway shopmen call- ed for 10 o'clock tomorrow morning. Flouting, according to Chairman Hooper,.the board efforts to effect a settlement of the shopmen's griev- ences before the walkout took place, B. M. Jewell, head of the shop craft union and the six international union heads, refused to appear for an of- ficial investigation of the strike by the board. No further attempt to forestall the strike will be made, Chairman Hooper announced, in ad- journing the federal bodiy's inquiry. Maintenance Men Not to Strike A threatened strike of 400,000 rail- way maintenance of way employees was at least postponed, however, by the board's intervention. The strike, i this group, which has been expected to parallel that of the shop men will not be announced at present but will await the action of the organization's executive council here July 3, accord- ing to the announcement of Pres E. F. Brable before the board today. He made this concession, he said, on the assurance of the board that present wages would be increased at any time that increased living costs warranted. / Board Accomplishes' Little The announcement comes as the first definite accomplishment of the board, which yesterday stepped into the threatened railway crisis follow- ~n .strike 'call set for tojnorrow Wliph included so the shopmren. Pre ent Jewell's failut to attend the peace conference brought severe. condemnation from the chairman of the board, who, in closing the inquiry; declared the rail union chief's blood was "on his own head." Craft Heads Ignore Sunmmons Neither Mr. Jewell, nor ahy of the shop craft heads, answered the board's summons. Instead they sent a letter maintaining the right of the shop' inen to strike' and expressing the belief that the board hearing would but result in "a confused and disorderly strike lnuvement, lackrig authoritative con- trol and almost _ inevitably resulting in a mob-like action."_ After questioning Mr. Grebel the board went into an investigation of 'Robert Louis Stevenson, Cook and Many Other Men Visited Island PROF. CROSS TALS OF ISLAND SCENIC BEAUTY Characterizing the Society Islands of which Tahiti is a member as the most beautiful of the Pacific. Prof. A. L. Cross, of the history depart- ment, gave a picture of the island of Tahiti which he visited last year. Tahiti is more than 11,000 iniles south of Saij Francisco and requires a sail 'of 28 gays. Professor Cross viewed the harbor on his entrance to the island at -snrise with a deep im- pression of the coloring of the sky and coral reefs as .gell 'as the steep mountain guarding the port. The island is at present under the French, who have given the natives a certain amount of autonomy and are represented by' the leaders of the anoient native families. The people are of the Indo-European race with no negro characteristics. These ishands have been visited by many famous men such as Robert Louis Stevenson, and Captain Cook, the explorer. They have proved fer- tile sources for many pieces of liter- a ture. 'he climate of Tahil is sub-tropi- cal with temperature ranging from 70 to 89 degrees, that of summer being -on the average of 10 degrees higher than that of winter. The beautiful coloring of the vegetaion combined wih the mountainous character of the island makes the island particularly appealing. ANN ARBOR NOT EFFECTED The nation wide shop men's strike, called for 10 o'clock this morning, will not effect Ann Ar- bor, due to the fact that there are'. no shops on either the Ann Arbor or Michigan Central railroads I located here. - I between 60 and 70 students made the tour of Ann Arbor and of several University buildings this afternoon. Speaking of the trip through the city, Mr. Wells said, "This tour is an 'innovation. It is the first tqme we, have attempted anything like it iging I the Summer session, and we are great- ly indebted to' the Exchange club fof their co-operation." The Exchange club of this city furnished more than 20 automobiles to accommodate the party, Leaving the Library at 2 o'clogck, the party went out WXashtenaw ave-, nnue, through the residential district,' and then toured the bulevard. Pass-; ing through the businesg seption of the city, the turists took the road to the Barton Hills !ountry -9plA- In retprning, they followed the north1 sjhore rives, skirti4g arton lake and the huron river, finally corning1 down by the Cedar Bend road throughi Island Park. The party- reached the Natural Science driveway at 3:30j o'clock. The trip through the Library was conducted by Miss Biethan, of the Li- brary staff. She explained the library methods and told of interest- ing features in the building as, she led the visitors through the, work-7 rooms, stacks, study halls and reading rooms.k Leaving the Libra ry. the party next1 visitedthe Aluinni Vemorial hall, where they were permilttet o inspect< the exhibits at random. irectorw Wells then conduete them to thec Michigan Wnion.

FORMER FACULTY MEN G(BT IMPORTANT HEALTH POSTS < Dr. J. H. Cummings, who was form-G erly director of the Pasteur institutec at the University and who since theE close of the war has, been assistant'f health officer pf the district of Colum-1 bia, has resigned the latter positionr in order to, accept the, offer made to him to become chief of the bureauroff health of Philadelphia. Philadelphia has the, third largestr health department in the United States and it is understood that Dr. Cum-1 mings was given 4 large increase inf salary in order, to secure him for the , position.- SAYS HENRY FORD MADE, BEST OFFER FOR PLANT 'U. S. Government Will Expend More Than $11,000,000 Before Work Is Completed In a comprehensive talk illustrated with motion pictures, Prof. A. H. White, colonel in charge of work at Muscle Shoals during the war and now of the chemical engineering de- partment, spoke yesterday afternoon in the Natural Science auditorium concerning the Muscle Shoals project. The location of the Muscle Shoals plant in Alabama was due to three reasons, he said. First, the desire of the people in the upperregions of the Tennessee river for a more navigable stream with a complete system of locks. Second, the need of the south- ern agriculturists for fertilizers, and third, the sudden demand for nitrate explosives with our entrance tto the World War. In . manufa turg ex- plosives, ammonint ntrate Is made, which is isel i the preparation of T. N. T. ag other smokeless explo- sivcea. The motia pictures showed the great scale upon which the whole plant was constructed, some of t-k% buildings of which were more. than a fifth of a mile long. Other buildings, the towers, reaceb9 a height of more than 75 feet. The hugeness of the machinery as well as the extremes of 'temperature. from nmore than 00 degrees below zero to 4,000 above were emphasieg" The plant with the expenditure of' additional money can be made a great national asset both in times of peace in the manufacure 'of fertilizers and in case of war as a source of the ni- trates for explosives. Professor White 'believes that the best offer yet made the govenment is that of Henry Ford,.

Although he had asen fractured1 ribs and a disloated hip, his con- dition did s; become critical until, yestery, when fever and congtion o 'the lungs set in.- Maxwell was born in ChicagQ 3; Years ago, where his mothr awd a sister, Mrs. Katherine oust, live. He came into prqWinenoe in 1902 as a. g;1amO on t he University of Chicago football team, but won his greatest honors as a member of the Swarth- more college eleven in 1904 and 1905. While in college he was one of the foremost weight throwers in the East. After leaving Swarthmore college' Maxwell became connected with C ica- go newspapers and came to Philadel- phia about 10 yer, ago.

Kids" Leave For Fresh Air Camp Seventy-five happy youngsters from Detroit, Flint and Ann Arbor began their summer vacation on Thursday when the first section of the Univer- stiy of Michigan Fresh Air camp open- ed at Pidkney. Mr. Wallick accompanied the boys to Ann Arbor on the interurban and automobiles provided by residents of the city took them to camp. This is the first of the four sections which will be taken to the camp. The purpose of the camp, as explained by officials in charge, is to 'take the boys off the streets and from juvenile courts of cities throughout the state, and give them the opportunty 4o swim, fish, hike and aid in their ment- al and physical development under the care of capable leaders. This is the second summer that the Fwash. Air camp has been in exist- ance. It is financed entirely by al- umni, students and friends of the Un- iversity., There will be men from the Uni- versity who are trained along speci- fic lines to take care of the health of the youngsters and also to teach them the secrets of the woods.. ENROLLMENT HIGH lIN STATE SCHOOLS Attendance Here Proportionally Low for Summer; Relatively High . Costs Are Reasons. FIGURES FOR CAMPS AND STATIONS ARE NOT KNOWN Although the exact . figures forj Summer session registration were not available, the high interest in sum- mer educational work is evidenced by the large enrollment in Michigan. Throughout the state in the normal c9.lleges at Ypsilanti, Kalamazoo, and Marquette together with other insti-l tution sch as the Detroit Teachers' lOege, the total enrollment is be-f lheved to reach close to 11,000. The attendan~ce here is proportion- ally low, but this condition has been attributed, to the'fact that tuition at Michigan is much higher than at oth- er- colleges who maintain summer courses and to the relatively higher1 cost of lIving here.f Since the numbers for the summer geological and geographical camps, the biological statloni, the vocational students in Detroit, the second term of Camp Davis engineering xyork and the second divisions of certain coursesF in the Medical school will not be known for a time, Anal figures for£ enrollment caneA yet be obtained. 8 Person, Inunured in Auto Accident Three persons were injured, one of them: seriously, when the machine drivel by Maxwell Kluck skidded intot the loose gravel on the Salem'road3 about 11:30 Thurs sy night, and turn- ed turtle twic Kluck received badz bruiseq sakd nuts !and sustained at broken rib.

ENGIEERS' TASKS OUTLINED BY DENI SAYS STUDENTS HAVE GRAVE DUTIES TO FACE IN WORLD PATTERSON GIVES FIRST ADDRESS AS NEW HEAD Assistant Dean Expresses Desire 'to Maintain Relations of Friendship ' "You have a very great, a very grave responsibility as engineers. You must say to yourselves, 'My duty dur- ing my four years in college lies in seeking a broad traning to meet this responsibility.' This was the message delivered by Dean Mortimer E. Cooley of the col- leges of engineering and architecture before the Summer session engineer- ing students at their first generalf assembly at 11 o'clock yesterday in' the engineering assembly room. Outlines Profession's Growth Dean Cooley outlined the tremen- donus increase in the scope of engi- =neering since 40 Years- ago, when all engineering students in the Univer- sity pursued the only course offered, civil engineering, each tudent fol- lowing the same curriculum. Now six branches of engineering are rep- resented In the college, with some 20 distinct courses. Due to the widely different paths followed now in the profession, men studying or practicing in one bran'ch are liable to find themselves out of touch with the conditions of the oth- ers, the dean pointed out, and segre- gation during the college course would tend to put those in each branch out of sympathy with those in the others. "Here all engineers live under one roof. By daily contact, rub- bing elbows in class-room, laboratory and corridor each student comes to have an increased appreciation of the others' problems." Federation Has 60,000 Members Affiliation of engineers of all sorts into a national federation has culmin- ated in a co-operative mnovement to attempt projects appertaining to the profession as a whole. The Federat- 'ed American Engineering societies, stated Dean Cooley, have now through its 31 member societies an aggregate membership of more than 60,000. When all eligible societies have joined 200,000 engineers will be affiliated with it Not only the United States, but England, France, Italy, China, Cana- da, Australia, and Czecho-Slovakia have undertaken such federations, and there is now suggestion of a world federation of engineers. "I think the possibilities of such an organization are very great," exclaim- ed Dean Cooley. "There is no more important man in the world than the engineer - no profession upon which civilization is more dependent for material advancement; and his con- tributions are by no means confined to material development. "Cities with 30,000 people living in single buildings during the day- time and with homes miles away would be, an impossibility were it noV for the recent developmetn of engi- neering. The great development of the West is due to the opening of railroads. Were it not for easy mod- ern means of transportation, dialects would be prevalent through the coun- try, as in the Middle Ages Romance languages arose in Europe. These were corruptions of the Latin uni- versally spoken n earlier times. "Engineer Creates" "How is engineering different from the learned professions: the law, the ministry, and medicine? A member of the latter comes into personal con- tact with the man he serves, While the 'engineer makes an impression only through what he creates.. It is necessary for the engineer so to pre- pare himself for his profession that it, 'r
