Davis of West Virginia and Gov. Charles W. Bryan of Nebraska are the Democratic party's candidates for president and vice president. Emerging on the 103rd ballot as the Democratic national convention's choice for the presidential nominat- ion, the West Virginia lawyer and diplomat swept away great waves of bitterness churned up during the 15 preceding days of stormy conflict. Then taking command immediately, the new head of the party guided the convention swiftly toward the select- Ion of his running mate, the brother of William Jennings Bryan, his, most vigorous opponent throughout the balloting. Adjourns at 2:30 A. i. When the convention adjourned at 2:24 a. in. today, it had filled many new pages of political history, rising in draratic force from the violent struggle 12 days ago over naming the Ku Klux Klan in the party platform through the record-breaking dead- lock between supporters of William G. McAdoo and Gov. Alfred E. Smith which held throughf100rballots before a presidential nomination was in sight and in the closing scenes came a new precedent in the personal appearance of the nominee to acknowledge his gratitude and his prompt assumption of command. The final adjournment, which mark- ed the formal ending of the convention came two minutes after Gov. Bryan had been declared nominated for the vice presidency. Tt was accomplish- ed with a single ballot, through the changing of many votes which elim- inated most of the 30 names that first appeared, but it was not unanimous. The weary delegates had finished their work. New York, July 10.-(By A.P.)- After a hectic day, during which he surrendered good naturedly to a throng of admirers and photographers who besieged him repeatedly at the Waldorf Astorial hotel, John W. Dav- is, Democratic nominee for President, tonight escaped from an inundation of congratulatory telegrams, dined with Charles W. Bryan, his running mate, and William Jennings Bryan, and pre- pared to go to his country home at Locust Valley, Long Island, for a brief rest before taking up detailed plans for his campaign. William J. Bryan, who had opposed Mr. Davis' nomination met the nomi- nee in a corridor of the hotel immed- iately after Mr. Davis' meeting with newspaper men this morning. Mr. Bryan held out his hand, smiled and said. "I am at your command." Lincoln, Neb., July 10.-(By A.P.) -All civic and patriotic organizations discussed plans today for a homecom- h ng celebration for Charles W. Bryan, Democratic Vice-Presdential nominee, who is expected to arrive Sunday. Mayor Gehrunghas expressed will- ingness to issue a proclamation°ask- ing that the business district at home be decorated with the national colors. The Chamber of Commerce told the governor in a telegram sent to New York City today, that he will be "roy- ally welcomed." THOSE THINGS one wants, and yet cannot get, sure do make life miserable.

He was virtually chosen by John W. Davis, the nominee for the first position. During the balloting, Governor Bryan, of Nebraska, was D avis' bitterest opponent. I F-- - ----- Puppeteers Give Pleasing Revue For Large Group The marionette show given yes- terday afternoon and evening at the Mimes theater for the benefit of the Women's League was the most suc- cessful performance the toy actors have ever presented in Ann Arbor. The program was about evenly divided between musical, terpsichorian, and dramatic numbers- an arrangement that prevented the occasional mon- otony of puppet shows, and the dia- logue and action were both fantastic and highly amusing. The clown Harlequin made his us- ual charming, stiff little bows to the audience and announced each act in, verse. A Dutch dance was given by Hans and Gretzel, two dolls of unus- ual grace and remarkably limber joints, and a song was sung by Gio- vanni, a quaint Italian hurdy-gurdy man. The dramatic parts of the prpgram were a short Japanese fable about a clever beggar and an easily fooled miser, the old mummer's play of St. George and the Dragon, and the last scene of "Midsummer Night's Dream," with its farcial tale of Pyramus and Thisbe. The scenery of these plays was quite modern and striking and the costumes were executed with con- siderable skill.' The undoubted hit of the perform- ance was Madame Galli, the prima' donna. Her deep, throaty voice, hys- terical gestures, and quaint system of breathing gave real dramatic intensity to her selections. The audience ap. preciated her ability to the full and' encored her with generous applause. NIAAATRIP STRTS AT 3 OCLOCK TODAY Sixty-six people will leave for De- trgit on the D. U. R. this afternoon at 3:10 on the first leg of the excur- sion to Niagara Falls. These excur- sions have been a regular event for the last twenty years and this year's party is larger than usual.

The class will study. the gorge and will work out the incidents of it history., Coolidge's Son Buried In New England Home Plymouth, Mass., July 10.-(By AP)-In a little village cemetery where the maples and evergreens throw long shadows across the old tombstones on the hillside, they buried Calvin Coolidge sixteen year old son, namesake of the president today. Re- straining in a large part, outward manifestation of their sorrow, the President, Mrs. Coolidge, and John the eldest son, stood with bowed heads during the short simple com- mitment service until a marine bugler had blown "Taps" across the grave. The cemetary where Calvin was laid to rest lies on a little hill, dominated by the Green mountains which over- shadow in the family plot by the mother of the President and kinsmen, an in the same grassy row, where the grave was dug, are spaces reserved for the last resting places, of the President, John and his mother. Much of official Washington, in- cluding each cabinet member, the speaker of the nations House of Rep- resentatives and the Governors of two states attended th'e services. The party from Washington came in the closely guarded train which halted at Northhampton in the Edwards Con- gregational church where Calvin was a member. After the last notes of "Taps" had echoed away, the family group went for a short time to the old white farm house of the President's father, Col. John C. Coolidge where the President took his oath of office, Aug. 3 a year ago. Then accompanied by the elderj Coolidge, the little family, broken now by death, started on the journey back to Washington.

Olympic Stadium, Colombes, France, July 10.-(By A.P.)-Despite the spectacular double victory of Fin- land's great runner, Paavo Nurmi, who won the 1500 and 5000 meter runs in Olympic record time, the United States increased its point lead over the little Scandinavian nation on the fifth day of the Olympic competitions today by winning both the pole vault and the hammer throw. The result of the hammer throw final was as follows: Fred B. Tootell, Boston A. A., first, 53.295 meters; Matt J. McGrath, New York A. C., second, 50.84 meters; M. C. Nokes, Great Britain, third, 48.875 meters; Ericson, Finland, fourth, 45.- 285 meters; James MacEachren, Olym- pic club, San Francisco, sixth, 45.225 meters.

Brooker, University of Mich and Pet- ersson of Denmark, tied for third place with 3.90 meters; Pickard, Can- ada, fifth, with 3.80 meters; Ralph] Spearow, University of Oregon, sixth with 3.70 meters. Olympic stadium, Colomnbes, July 10.-(By A.P.)-Within two hours this afternoon, Paavo Nurmi, Finland's great distance runner raced to spec- tacular victory in the 1500 and 5000 meter events breaking the Olympic record in both distances and winning an Olympic trial such as no individual has ever achieved before.- Nurmi captured the 1500 meter run] against a' fine field in 3 minutes, 53 3-5 seconds, clipping off 3 and 1-5 sec- onds from the old record but failing] by 2-5 of a second to equal his own; world record. He won the 5000 meter, from his fellow countryman, Willie Ritola, in 14 minutes, 31 and 1-5 sec-] onds, meeting both the Olympic and world record by several seconds. ] But even this super trial of Fin. land's greatest ace, could not check the onward march of the uniteds States for the Americans demonstratd their superiority in the pole vault and hammer throw, the emaining finals of' the fifth day of Olympic competition and lengthened their mounting point lead over the rival Scandavian na- tion in the dual for international su- preacy. The glory which went in double measure to Nurmi was also shared for the day by two young Americans, Fred Tootel, Boston A. A., who cap-; tured the hammer throw by a decis- ive margin from his countryman, Max J. McGrath, New York A. C. veteran of four Olympics and Lee Barnes, the the 17 year old California high school boy who won the pole vault laurels in+ the jump off with his coast rival Glenn Graham, after they had tied for first place at a height of 12 feet, 11 1-2 inches, which equalled the Olympic record. These three sent Finland's emblem and the stars and stripes exclusively up the victory pole for the day. But another hero run tothe top in Joseph Imbach, unsung and unheralded swift whirlwind, who won his heat in the second trials of the 400 meter run4 (Continued on Page Four) I WHAT'S GOING ONI FRIDAY 4:00-Women's League tea at Adelia Cheever house, 516 East Madison street.
