IMELE IANTI-SALOON HEAD, FLAYS 1CaZENS (By Special Correspondent) Alma, June 3.-iWayne B. Wheeler, neral counsel of the Anti-Saloon ague of America, from Washing- n, vigorously denounced Senator uzens' a per cent beer proposal at e State Synod pof the Presbyterian Lurch held here yesterday, That e average alcoholic content of beer fore prohibition was only three or ur per cent and that men became toxicated on such liquor was the gument upheld by Mr. Wheeler. He ated that it is possible for a man become intoxicated on 2.75 per cent er and even 2 per cent beer. "In the enactment of prohibition forcement codes it °is not a ques- n as to whether liquor is actually toxicating, but what is necessary in -der to bring about an honest en- rcement of the law. This is the ason why practically every state >ids the alcoholic standard to about Ie-half of one per cent. The evident tent of the 5 per cent beer chain- ons is to try and enact a law pro- biting beer of a certain alcoholic intent and then leave the govern- ent with no machinery for dealing ith certain liquors of lower alco- >ie contpnt, which clearly are in- xicating," Mr, Wheeler declared at if the 5 per cent berer proposal are accepted it is estimated that 90 r cent of the political corruptions id evils of the former wet regime ould be prevalent. Weddings Announced On June 23 Mr. Gilbert H. Doane, e assistant librarian of the Univer- ty, was married at Elliot, Connecti- tt, to Miss Susan H. Sherman, of .e Vassar College Library staff. Miss Hael Giddings, who resigned r position as assistant in the main ading room on June 16, was mar- ed on June 21, in Lawton, Michigan, Mr. Lewi Williams. Mr. and Mrs. 'illiams will. be at home after Sept. at 409 North Niles street, Paw Paw, . E INDEPENDENCE DAY Today we celebrate the 147th an- niversary of the signing of the Declar- ation of Independence in which the struggling colonies banded together against the autocratic policies of George III and set up a single ideal of equality for all mankind in "life, lib- erty, and the pursuit of happiness." When the thirteen colonies set forth their intentions in 1776 it was an act of seltf-preservaltion against British oppression that held them together. When the Revolutionary war had ceas- ed a unified ideal was formulated and served to hold the provinces togeth- er. Finally in the Constitution a defin- ite program of government for the child-nation was set forth and it is this which has since maintained the strength of our Union. No longer held together in self defense, apparently ,without one com- mon ideal, and challenging the valid- ity of the definite system of govern- ment which has evolved through al- most a century and a half, the United States while still able to maintain its independence, 0s apparently losing Its unity. Our system of governmental organization has been perfected, that is true. It has almost overstepped its limit in the way of regulations but still goes on. _ In maintaining national Independ- ence, this country has held the policy of avoiding all European alliances of a permanent nature inviolate. To- day when Europe is in such deep dis- tress, when international peace as an ideal seems doomed to failure unless the United States accepts either a World Courttplansorjoinstthe League of Nations, our natural and uninter- fered independence must not give way to sentimental feelings of pity for poor little Europe. We should do all within our power to 'help establish the world on a basis of arbitrary settlements, of mu- tual understanding. We should not, however, sacrifice our independence to the detriment of our own prin- ciples. TRAINING VIA HIJMILIATION Young fellows leave their homes to spend four years or more at college and expect to return to their moth- ers' loving arms, well rounded and worldly men. They spend half of their time at a university like Mich- igan before finding out just what an education means, and the latter pr- tion of their intellectual sojourn is then necessarily occupied with the task of finding out how to make the best of that education, There are many worn-out reasons given for the failure of colleges to accomplish their purpose but one In particllar is responsible for more In- nocent disappointments than any oth- er. Self-assurance, confidence in word aifd act, are uncultivated in almost every boy who comes to college. Even after several years of academic train- ing many lack that self-reliance which Emerson puts as a keystone to suc- cess. It is not a difficult thing to impress the student with the value of. this trait. In fact with the present sys- em of class recitations he would be forced to cultivate his confidence if failure in quizzes was made sufficient- ly humiliating. We do not want to force students to their work but they toUld none the less be made to feel their lack of self-reliance through em- barrassment, The man who goes out into the world, knowing what he can do and confident in himself through all of his trials has the advantage on the uncertain fellow who never quite catches up to him. To those who were not here during the past year, the black coffin in the entrance to 207 U. H. is a mysterious object. Its somber appearance sug- gests black thoughts and sensational tales. To the uninitiated who gaze upon that coffin could come only won- der and conjectures as to its pur- pose. However it has had its use, even if for the time being it is dead. That black box, hung papoose like on the wall, contrary to most coffins has held not the dead but the living, real live stories of the most secret and sen- sational type. This coffin differs in another way from other coffins. Its contents are en route for the morgue instead of vice versa. Journalists, and would-be journal- ists, and those interested had last year a student publication called "The Morgue." Contributions to this were made through the "coffin" and the pa- per was read at the lunches which the Press club held every two weeks. Editor and contributors exercised all freedom of speech when writing/ for the paper; it was for the consump- 62,000 NAMES IN A I A First Edition Since 1911 to Contain 20,000 More Names Than Last Publication 1DITORS ESTIMATE THAT 12,000 SERVED DURING WORLD WAR July 15 has been set as the date of publication of the new University Alumni catalogue, which will contain the names of 62,000 alumni. The cat- alogue Is printed every 10 years, this being the first edition since 1911. The new edition will contain 20,000 more names than the edition of 1911. Data will be included concerning the war records, marriages and deaths of alumni as well as records of their academic degrees. Editors of the cat- alogue estimate that 12,000 alumni served in the. World war and that 247 were killed in action. FIRST KOREAN STUDENT ENROLLS IN' UNIVESITY Michigan has enrolled its first Kor- ean student in the person of Miss Pok Sing Song from Pungyang, Korea. She has been a medical student at Tokio, Japan, for the past five years, After she had received her degree in,med- cine, her father decided to send his daughter to the University of Michi- gan for grauate work. Miss Song is very much interested in her profes- sion and shows very marked ability along medical lines. She expresses the desire to return to Korea after having completed her course here and exert her influence on the improve- ment of sanitation and the increase in the number of hospitals in Korea. During her stay in America Pok Sing Song has adopted an Americanized name, Grace Song. During the past week Miss Song has been the guest of Prof. Carl W.

STAGE COACH ROBBERY IS a "THRILL" OF CELEBRATION Daniel L. Quirl, ,r. and his cast of more than 1,000 people presented the "Pageant of Ypsilanti" at 8:30 o'clock last night, bringing the centennial elebration to a climax in Ypsilanti. Monday's activities included a "hold- up" of ian old stage coach which was carrying letters from officials of De- troit, The coach was first attacked by banditti under the leadership of R. Clyde Ford, president of the Ypsilanti Rotary club, at Dearborn, who forced the occupants to remain to lunch. The coach was again held up at Ypsi- lanti by masked ruffians, who looted the mail sack and all valuables be- longing to the occupants of the coach. All then proceeded to Gilbert Park where all were officially received by Dr. E. S. George, president of the Kiwanis club. The day's activities concluded with a costume ball. The dancers were at- tired in costumes of 100 years ago, presenting a brilliant spectacle.

P.) -Carrying, back more than half century, President and Mrs. Harding reached here today, viewing a scene of pioneer days and travels over the old Oregon trail. The little town of Meacham, Oregon, were reconnected to the nation by the executive and his wife. Events that brought about the innovation of the Oregon c'oun- try into the American Union were celebrated. The town of Meacham has only 50 inhabitants but it reached the proportion of a fair sized city today as automobiles, special trains, and wagons and carts forced through in- to the little valley which lies between UNCERTAINTY OF BOUT ENDS AS PROMOTERS REACH SETTLE- MENT KEARNS REACHES TERMS WITH FIGHT PROMOTERS Dempsey's Manager Agrees to Gamble On Last $100,000; Will Take First Receipts Great Falls, July 3.-The Jack Dempsey-Tom Gibbons heavyweight chapipionship fight suddenly called off at midnight last night, was put back on its feet again and will be decided in the big pine bowl at Shelby to- morrow as scheduled. Jack Kearns, manager of the world heavyweight champion, at a conference which broke up at 2:45 a. m., today agreed to send Dempsey into the ring against the St. Paul challenger tomorrow and gamble for the final $100,000 install- ment due Dempsey on his $300,000 guarantee. The promoters guaranteed the pre- liminary expenses of the show which includes the payment of the boxers of the preliminary bouts, $5,000 to Jimmy Dougherty, the referee and other incidental expenses, which pro- bably will amount to $30,000. Lane Still In Maj. J. E. Lane, of Lewistown, Mont., who resigned as trustee for the promoters yesterday, after fail- ing to raise Dempsey's $100,000 de- cided to continue as trustee and as- sist the promoters in untangling the muddled finances. Kearns will have jurisdiction over all gate receipts un- til the champion's $100,000 is obtain- ed. The gate receipts will then revert to the promoters. The fight was actually called off at 12:30 o'clock this morning after an angry argument between Jack Kearns the champion's manager, and Stan- ton in a room crowded with newspa- per correspondents . Stanton appear- ed to tell Kearns that the $100,000 which the champion's manager had demanded was not available and he saw no prospect of raising it. Kearns offered to agree to a post- ponement to July 25 to 'enable the finances to be completely reorganized and a new drive started for the sale of tickets. This, however, did not meet with the approval of the promot- ers and Kearns went into a room with' the newspaper correspondents for .a discussion of the situation. Asks Newspapermen Kearns asked the newspapermen just what they thought of the situa- tion and they unanimously were of the opinion that the fight should be held. They counseled with the man- ager to go back and make the "pro- posal to "gamble" with the- gate re- ceipts for his final $100,000 guaran- tee provided the preliminary ex- penses of the show were absolutely assured, The champion's manager hesitated, studied for a few moments ,and then hurriedly left the room. He proceed- ed immediately to the room where the promoters were conferring and made the "gambling" proposition. The proposal was not immediately ac-' cepted, however and Lane, Molum- by and former Judge Roy E. Ayers asked for a few minutes by them- selves to talk it over. They discussed the proposition and came back in 20 minutes with the announcement that they would accept. The first announcement-or the last -to the newspapermen came from Lane, who opened the door of the conference room and shouted: "Boys the fight is on."

Dempsey declared that h expected Gibbons to prove to be out of the toughest opponents he has eve met. Challenger Dangerous "I am not one who regards him fightly," said Dempsey. "I regard ev- ery challenger as dangerous; they art all dangerous until they are on tht floor. I am not going to take an chances with Gibbons. I will mak every effort to beat him in the flrst round if possible. "Anything is liable to happen to a champion any time he goes into th ring. So I am going to do my best and should I fail, I shall be among the first to welcome Gibbons as the new °champion. Dempsey Feel, Fine "It is my coifident feeling that I never was in better shape. I feel better than I have in many years o the day before a fight. My training period has been handled with suc perfection that I have greatly benefited by, it." ®Dempsey looks to be everything that his manager, Jack Kearns, has said about him. Rowe Lectures On F a its Formation Prof. J. P. Rowe, of the University of Montana, who is instructor in the geology department during the sum- mer, d elivered an exceedingly inter+ esting illustrated lecture to a large audience at the Natural Science audi-, torium yesterday afternoon on "The Geology of Niagara Falls. Professor Rowe began with the earliest formations of the Falls and the Niagara river and traced their de- velopment to the present day. He stat- ed that the sea at one time covered all this region and that the river was eventually made by the rains form- ing streams which in turn cut the deep gorges. Professor Rowe traced the develop. ment of the Great Lakes and of the great gorge of the Niagara rive which he said were developed at the same time. The most recent change in the gorge is believed to have oc curred before the birth of Christ. Ev- ery year the Falls recede a little, the Canadian Falls receding two and a half feet annually while the Americar Falls recede only two inches. The river can not cut through the har limestone so that it wears the earth away under it and the big rocks breal off. UNIVERSITY LIGHTING SYSTEM FAILS DURING AFTERNOON The University was without elec tricity during the greater part of yes terday afternoon. If it had not bee for the fact that the sun was shining brightly classes would have been hek in Stygian blackness. One of the mains of the power plan burned out early in the afternoo0n and for a time it was thought that it would be necessary to postpone the illustrated lecture on Niagara Falls which was scheduled for 5 o'clock.
