THURSDAY, AUGUST 14, 1930 THE $Ui UWM MICHIGAN DAILY GREEN OFFERS 9AiD TO IAI M. BRUCKER, ATTORNEY_ GENERAL Retiring Governor Prepares to Swing Vote by Introducing Attorney at Ionia. TO RETIRE IN JANUARY Green Finds Chance to Praise Executive's Qualities, Urges Nomination. (By Associated Press) IONIA, Aug. 13.-Gov. Fred W. Green came home today to submit to his neighbors a report of his' custody of the state's highest of- fice. Although he does not sur- render the executive chair until January, it was his formal farewell to public life and a greeting to the home folks to whom he will soon return.' In his gesture of adieu to official{ life, the governor offered to drape the administration mantle over the shoulders of Wilber M. Brucker, at- torney general. Figuratively, he proffered Brucker his support for Republican gubernatorial nomina- tion. With his aproval, Brucker was invited to appear on the Gov- ernor's day program of Ionia Free Fair. Shows Friendship. The arrangement was ample evi- dence of political friendship, for, Gov. Green and his business asso- ciates have much to do with the fair. Even more significant was the, acceptance of an invitation by the governor to introduce Brucker. This gave the executive an oppor- tunity he evidently wanted to praise the attorney general, laud his qualifications, and urge his, nomination. Old Rivalry Repeated. Four years ago, from the same platform, Gov. Green anounced his candidacy for the governorship. He then pitted himself against Alex J. Groesbeck, who was seeking a fourth term as governor. Today the political battle cry of 1926 was inferentially repeated. With Gov. Green stepping aside Brucker was pushed forward under the campaign slogan, "Beat Groes- beck." The war between the Green and Groesbeck factions thus was assured of perpetuity, even though lines within the groups have changed and both the Brucker and Groesbeck organizations are far different than were the Green and Groesbeck battalions four years back. UNIVERSITY MUSEUM FIGURES SHOW STUDENTS' INTEREST IN WILD LIFE Pursutt of the complexities of higher education does not dim the common curiosity about the lives of the furry wild things of the wood and the lowly crawling things ofx swamp and stream, judging from the attendance at the tiny Univer- sity of Michigan Museum Zoo on Washtenaw Avenue in Ann Arbor. Early in the spring of 1930 the Museum completed a small circular animal house and a reptile pond to accomodate living specimens. The buildings were the gift of an anonymous donor. As soon as the weather permitted placing the animals outside they began to attract attention in an un- expected way, and by June had over one hundred visitors daily. By July it was found necessary to em- ploy a custodian to guard the place, his chief duties being to prevent children from six to sixty from pelting the turtles in the reptile pond in an attempt to stir them from their usual state of sun-baked somnolence. In a single week in July there was an afternoon and evening attendance of 1698 people, Sunday being the most popular LEAGUE TO FETE STUDENTS TODAY All women enrolled in the Sum- mer Session are invited to attend the last tea of the season which will be given at 4 o'clock this after- noon in the garden of the League building, by the undergraduate staff of the Michigan League. Students in the schools of Library Science and Physical Education are especially invited, and women fac- ulty members of these schools will be guests of honor. Those who have not attended the former teas will have an opportunity to meet Miss Lucy Elliott, dean of women during the Summer Session. The social events sponsored by the League during the summer have been in charge of Isabelle Rayen, '31, president; Roberta Reed, '31, secretary-treasurer; and Margaret Morin, '31, social chair- man, assisted by Jessie Winchell, '31. The League library has been in charge of Cecilia Shriver, '31.1 Miss Lucy Elliott has assisted and advised the committee during the summer. The entertainment for the sum-f mer school students provided by the League has included a bridge party, an informal dance, teas hon- oring the Play Production depart- ment, the faculty wives, Mrs. Ilgen- fritz, Dean Kraus and Mrs. Kraus and Miss Elliott, and a formal re- ception. with 602, the average for other days being 183, acocrding to Philipp, Sankuer, custodian. From the beginning the familiar. fascination for reptiles made the snake and turtle pond the most popular department. Almost any time finds a ring of observers of all ages contemplating the smooth undulations of the blue racer or the stodgy crawl of the hod-nosed snake which also entertains when angry1 by puffing his stout body and his- sing loudly to comouflage himself as a dangerous fellow. In addition to these there are a variety of com- mon grass snakes and a black wat- er snake. Though less spectacular the tur- tles seem equally interesting. These range in size from a silver dollar to that of a large platter, and in- clude snappers, box turtles, leath- er-backs, painted, Chinese and land turtles. Competition in the turtle kingdom for a place in the sun is strenuous, and furnishes enter-t tainment for the frivolous as well as material philosophical specula- tion on evolution and the survival1 of the fittest for more sober stu- dents.j The animal house, a circular red, brick structure topped by a bronze weathervane by Carleton Angell, Museum sculptor, contains two black bears, several raccoons, a red fox, coyote, two opossums and sev-, eral specimens of Mephitis meph- itis, or common skunk, safely de- odorized. SPORTALK t A not so mighty Purdue eleven will face plenty of tough opposition in the 1930 gridiron campaign, due to the loss of several of its most prominent men. Welch and Sleight, All-Americans of last year will be missing from the Boilermaker lineup. Purdue will clash with Baylor for the first time in what is regarded as one of the foremost intersec- tional games of the season. Last year, it will be remembered, Pur- due ruled the Western Conference. And Baylor-experts pick the Southerners to win the Southern Conference championship. Yes, the Purdue-Baylor battle should prove to be mighty interesting. For the first time since 1910 the Boilermakers will meet the Univer- sity of Iowa. This game will mark the eighth 1peeting between the two schools. FASHION PLATE The Fall coats which Paris is now creating will show many exciting silhouettes which suggest the most popular effects of the recent dress- es. Some of the styles from which! you will make your selection are predicted by Eleanor O'Malley inj McCall's for September: "Regardless of the seasons, Paris usually shows very new lines first in dresses, perhaps on the theory that if they look unfamiliar and~ startling, they will be worn indoors among friends. Later on, as soon as the new features are assured suc-I cess, they appear in coats, to be worn outdoors among strangers. "So the new season's coats do many things characteristic of the new dresses. The distinction be- tween serviceable or sports coats and coats for afternoon is more marked than ever. Silhouettes are more varied, with fit and fulness skilfully introduced. Typical of the new coats for practical wear is one cut on princess lines with a double- breasted front closing and a narrow bet to marktthe waist. A flattering type of coat has one of the new up-standing collars to frame the face, sleeves that widen toward the elbow and a circular flounce. "Sleeves are more interesting, with trimmings or cut often widen- ing the sleeve at the elbow or above it. 1 Miss Talley May Sing Again at Metropolitan (By Associated Press) CHICAGO, Aug. 13.-The girl of the golden west, Marion Talley, has foundathe west not as golden as the east, after all.
