Isbell was on last year team. Hub-
bard will compete in the broad jump
and 100 metre run. Brooker, who was
elected captain of the 1925 Michigan
track team should make the trip to
France unless something unforeseen
should happen, as he has been vault-
ing around 13 feet. Ray Smith in the
high jump has been clearing the bars
6 feet 3 inches and is expected to
give a good account of himself. Les-
chinsky won the 200 metre run at the
Olympic trials here beating Charlie
Paddock's time in his preliminary
heat. Isbell while he is 4ot in as good
shape as last year placed second in
the 1500 metre run at the trials and
should show up well at Cambridge.

Ottawa, June 12.-An order-in-coun-
cil embodying the.increase rates of
pay granted to postal employees was
tabled in the House of Commons early
today. The order was based on the
report of the Civil Service Commis-
sion.
this evening at 8:15. With an old
tavern of the Paris undeworld strik-
ing a bizarre note at the first cur-
tain, the story advances through two
acts laid in the court gardens, and
ends in a street scene with a gallows
edected in the foreground.
The play is historical; its principal
characters are Francois Villon, a
street favorite, and the superstitious
French king, Louis XI. A falling
star and an astrologer, together with
the recital of a new poem by Fran-
cois in the tavern, warn Louis of ev-
ents which may not be desirable. He
becomes interested in the - poor poet
and contrives to follow his actions and
finally to arrest him and test him to
his own satisfaction. In the course
of the play all favoratie interests
enters about Villon whose amours and
skill in duelling serve to win even
the o kin's heart.
Excellent settings, as fanciful and
as gorgeous as old Paris in the sun-
ny street or in the shadow of the
castle, will furnish a realistic back-
ground for knit A 'iand ladies, archers,
a street mob and soldiers. Costumes
that catch the spirit of the times have
been secured. Solo dancing before
the court promises added charm.
Sixty senior w'e~xmn will take part
in the production, which has been
under the direction of Prof. J. L. R.
Brumm. The scenery was done by
Davis of Detroit. Pamela Brown is
chairman of the play committee, and
Rorothy Greenwald is business manag-
er.
Tickets will be on sale this morn-
ing in Alumni Memorial Hall, and
during the afternoon at the office of
the Whitney. The proceds are for
the benefit of the'Michigan League.

GEN. CHARLES DAWES
GETS SECOND PLAC
MICHIGAN PRESIDENT LAUDS HI
AS "MAN", AMERICAN AND
HUMAiN BEING
Convention Hall, Cleveland, Ohio,
June 12 -General Charles G.
Dawes was nominated late yes-
terday by the Republican party in
the National Republican Conven-
tion here, as running mate for
President Coolidge. The nomni-
ation -came after former Gover-
nor Lowden of Illinois had refus-
ed to accept the second place on
the G. 0. P. ticket
Convention Hall, Cleveland, Jun
12.-(By AP)-Calvin Coolidge was a:
but unaminously nominated for ti
presidency today in the Republic
national convention.
The voice of the little group of LE
Follette men from Wisconsin an
North Dakota, who have stood throug
the convention in militant insurgent
against the policies of the party lea
ers were almost swallowed up in ti
tremendous wave of acclamation whic
formally ratified the choice of M
Coolidge as the standard bearer of t
party.
It was the plan to choose the pries
dent's running, mate at another se
son this afternoon. Then the conve
tion will adojurn and the party wi
go before the country.
Receives MajorIty Early
Not in many years has a Republ
can convention come so near to unai
imity in' its selection of a nomin
for the presidency.
Placed in nomination by Dr. Maric
Leroy Burton, president of the Unive
sity of Michigan, Mr. Coolidge's nan
threw the assembled delegates min
another demonstration, and when t
Toll call began state after state toc
its place in the column of his suj
porters.
The call of the states was scarce
half over when the necessary majoril
to nominate had been recorded in h
favor.
No other nominations were offere
The vote:
Total Coolidge, 1,065; LaFollett
38; Johnson, 10.
With that the convention went
the calling of the roll for nomina
ions for president. Alabama, the fir
state called, yielded to Massachuset
and Gov. Cox of Massachusetts, wi
moved that Dr. Marion Leroy Burt
be accorded the privilege of plac
in nomination the candidate of Mas
achusetts. So as it turned out I
Burton spoke as representing Mass
chusetts, the president's home, inste
of Michigan, his own.
Dr. Burton, a tall striking figu
stepped briskly to the front of t
platform and salmly surveyed t
great audience waiting for the a
plause and cheers to die down so )
could begin his speech.
Speaks Without Notes
Dr. Burton spoke without notes b
followed his prepared address gene
ally, shortening it here and there b
preserving the sense of the spee
he had prepared and which' undoubte
Ily was approved by President Co
idge.
Rapidly Dr. Burton sketched t
president's boyhood, and early 11
and then proceeded to answer t
question, "is he a human beIng?"
Pausing in his line of speaking I
Burton turned aside'for a moment
refer to attacks upon the suprexr
court and proposals to have fudici
decisions overridden by legislati
action.
