ly important one not decided.

Methodist church, chairman of the
inter-church world committee; D. B.
Robinson, president of the Brother-
hood of Locomotive Firemen and En-
ginemen and virtually ,all of the Pro-

A revision of the national committee
announced by Mr. Holder adds an
equal number of women. Its mem-
bership includes Miss Mabel Buel of
the Michigan State grange.
Delegates to the Socialist conven-
tion here July 5 and 6, will watch the
conference's proceedings in a body,
it was learned today, and on their im-
pressions will depend in large part
whether the Socialist party will put
a ticket in the field.

ENTRANTS FOR SUMMER
TENNIS CONTEST SLOW
Entrants in the summer tenni
tournament whih is being sponsored
by the Athletic association are sign-
ing up more slowly this year than
they formerly have done. The tourn-
ament is open to all summer school
students and some interesting compe-
tition is expected. Drawing for
matches will be held July 9 and every
student interested is asked to leave
his name at George Moe's Sport Shop
on North University avenue before
that date.
COLLEGE TENNIS TITLE
GOES INTO NEW HNS(
One new champion was crowmd I
in intercollegiate sports as the re-
sult of the college tennis champion-
ships recently reld at Philadelphia.
Ie is Wallace Scott of the University
of Washington, who won over Arnold3
Jones, last year's champion, in the7
finals of the singles event. White andE
Thalheimer of the University of Tex-
as, were successful in defending their<
doubles title won last year.

course, which will be situated just
south of Ferry Field and adjoining the
property of the Ann Arbor Golf and
Outing Club at its south-east corner.
Forty acres of rolling land have been
acquired there by twvo University grad-
uates, H. E. Hastings and 0. H. Clark,
and work will begin at once upon the
fairways andgreens. Since part of
the land was at one time a golf course
and since all of it is now covered
with blue grass, it is expected that
the course will be playable by Septem-
ber 20. The necessary seeding is to
be done under the direction of C. A.
Harris, local seed merchant.
Membership in the club, which is to
be known as the University Golf Club,
will be open to the first comers, but
is limited to 250 players. Member-
ships will be issued on a yearly basis
at the rate of $30.00. Students may
enroll at the yearly rate or for $15.00
a semester. Membership blanks can
be obtained at George Moe's sport-
shop. Although the project was first
anounced yesterday in the Ann Arbor
Times-News, there has already been
a brisk demand for playing privileges,
and it is expected that the limit of
250 will soon be reached. Many reg-
ular students who play golf are now
in summer school, and have an oppor-
tunity to secure memberships early
for next year.
EDUCATION COURSES TO
STRESS DFMONSTRATION
Emphasis is being laid this sum
mer cm demonstration work in class-
wprk of the department feature class-
es in the School of Edcation. Sev-
eral courses listed in the general
ork of the department feature class-
es actually under instruction. After
the class hour a discussion is held
during which teachers, and especially
those having had practical exerience,
find it protfitable to ask questions
Courses in which the method is
used cover everything in the field of
high school subjects. Under natural
sciences, there are special courses in
methods in botany, zoology, physics
and chemistry. Languages in which
observation is stressed include French,
English, Latin, Spanish, and German.
Courses in methods in history and in
mathematics also are being offered.
Something similar is done in the
courses in coaching now being con-
ducted on Ferry field, except that the
students in that work demonstrate the
principles for an hour on the field
after every lecture.
No practice teaching has. been pos-
sible as yet during Summer sessions,
although such work will be undertak-
en probably next summer i the Uni
versity high school.
The general tendency in education
at present is toward demonstration
and criticism of fundamental teach-
ing problems. To cover this side of
the work of the profession Mr. T. P.
Knapp, superintendent of Highland
Park schools, is giving a general
course on the principles of method.

MICHIGAN'S FALL
SCHEDUE HEAVY
Coach Little's Squad Will Play Six
Strong Conference Elevens
In 1924
WOLVERINES WILL DEDICATE
GIANT NEW ILLINOIS STADIUM
Michigan's grid schedule for 1924
is the most exacting in several years.
Besides the four conference teams
played last year, the Wolverines will
meet Illinois, undefeated in 1923, who
tied with Michigan for the champion-
ship. Northwestern will be the sixth
conference opponent for Coach Little's
squad. Miami univeristy and Michi-
gan Agricultural college complete the
list. Three of the games will dedi-
cate new stardia at East Lansing,
Urbana, and Minneapolis, making the
fall schedule of unusual importance.
The game with Illinois at Urbana
October 18 will be the greatest test
of a Michigan team in many years.
This contest will dedicate the new
$2,000,000 stadium, and will involve
the settling of the disputed supremacy
claims of followers of both teams as
a result of the tied championship of
last year. 80,000 spectators are ex-
pected to attend this game.
All of the conference teams played
will furnish strong opposition. Pre-
dictions as to the outcome of the sea-
son cannot be made with any degree
of certainty, as in previous years. One
thing only sems assured, that Michi-
gan faces in its 1924 schedule the sev-
erest test in many years.
The complete schedule follows in
detail:
Oct. 4--Miai university at Ann Ar-
bor.
Oct. 11-M. A. C. at East aLnsing. P
Oct. 18-Illinois at Urbana.
Oct. 25-Wisconsin at Ann Arbor.
Nov. 1-Minnesota at Minneapolis.
Nov. 8-Northwestern at Ann Arbor.c
Nov. 15-Ohio State at Columbus. c
Nov. 22--Iowa at Ann Arbor.
50 STUDENTS INSPECT
FORD MOTOR FACTORY
Fifty students inspected the Ford
Motor Company, Highland Park, yes-
terday afternoon on the third excur-
sion of the summer session. Under
special guides, the party was taken'
through' the tool room, motor assem-
bly, crank shaft machine room, and
finally through the huge power plant.
Production methods that have brought
unparalleled quantity output and mon-c
ey making eficiency were observed;t
and where necessary, explanations
were added, when the din of the plant
operations permitted.
At present the Ford plant is operat-
ing on a five day basis, most of thec
departments running on the three
eight hour shift, twenty-four hours per
day, schedule. The guide suggested
that Ford production, in some respects
was an accurate criterion of general
business conditions.
Dinner following the tour through'
the buildings was secured at the Maj-
estic building cafeteria on lower
Woodward avenue. At eight forty
five the excursion group arrived in
Ann Arbor.
There will be no excursion this com-
ing week end because of the Fourthc
of July, but Wednesday, July ninth,

Belle Isle will be visited.

Madison Square Gardens, New York,
July 2.-(By AP)-Still reeling under
the effect of the bombardment and
counter attack which swept the demo-
cratic national convention late this
afternoon when W. J. Bryan took the
platform for William G. McAdoo, and
was under a fire of questions regard-
ing McAdoo's connection with the oil
question and Tax refunds from the
government to corporations, the con-
vention assembled at S o'clock tonight
for the 39th ballot.
The effect of Bryan's move, and the
storm which accompanied it, was the
sole topic of discussion among teh
leaders when the convention assembl-
ed. Who had been benefited, and who
had been hurt were the great ques-
tions. There was an agreement on
all sides that if anything had been
necessary to solidify the Smith peo-
ple, it was Bryan's reference to the
necessity for a candidate whose pos-
ition was right on "the liquor ques-
tion". It was obvious that Bryan had
broke out on the floor of the conven-
tion a subject which the McAdoo peo-
ple had no relish for throwing into
open debate, the oil question and the
tax refund case.
The Ralston people were evidently
looking about to estimate how -their
candidate had fared under Bryan's
open attack.
Senator Walsh of Montana, a de-
clared supporter of McAdoo had given
way in the chair for the next session
to Senator Walsh of Massachusetts
a declared supporter of, Smith, so that
the way might be cleared from any em-
barrasment for clearing the galleries
of Smith's rooters if they became so
unruly as to stop the convention pro-
ceedings as they had done at the after-
noon sessionwhen they snowed Bryan
down under a cloudburst of howls,
cat calls and uncomplimentary re-
marks.
Slowly the record of ballots was
climbing toward the record made at
Baltimore and San Francisco where it
took 46 and 44 respectively to find
a nominee. If no nominee is chosen
tonight, the record will be in a fair
to be broken. At 8:15 Chairman
Walsh began gavelling for order; sil-
enced the band, waved delegates and
alternates to their seats, and shook a
hand at the galleries to keep in order
and announced that Mr. Fred II. Knu-
bell of the United Lutheran churches
would lead in prayer.
