-- 8ATURDAY, AUGUST 15, 1931 TORS SPONSORED BY SESSION DRAN LARGE ATTENDANCE 1,020 Participate in Ten Trips Offered, 330 More Than Last Summer. MANY VISIT PUT-IN-BAY Repetition of Ford Airport and Greenfield Village Excursion Proves Necessary. Summer Session excursions this year attracted a record attendance, Carlton F. Wells, secretary of the Session, announced yesterday, 1020 taking part in ten special trips. Last year only 690 took the excur- sions offered, while 741 participated in 1929. One excursion, a visit to Ford airport, Greenfield village, and the recently completed Dearborn inn, proved so popular that a repetition of the trip was offered for students who were unable to get facilities for the first. Unusual interest was shown in the bus and steamer trip to Put-in- Bay, 250 students taking the ex- cursion. Last year's number for the tour was 110. Scenic and geologi- cal points of interest were inspect- ed on the island under the direc- tion of Prof. William H. Hobbs, head of the geology department. Pro- fessor Hobbs also directed a trip to Niagara Falls and vicinity, which included a complete tour of the gorge and various scenic points, as -well as a study of the important geological features. Twenty-five persons took this excursion. On the last excursion of the sum- mer, 160 students visited the new Michigan State prison, near Jack- son. Guard captain M. S. Hatch conducted the party through the 57-acre inclosure where 5,600 crim- inals are housed. Captain Hatch also gave a lecture on prison prob- lems. Because of the great interest shown in past years, two trips to the Ford plant at River Rouge were scheduled. One hundred forty stu- dents took the first excursion and 60 the second. Though the fac- tories were not operating on a full schedule, the excursionists saw most of the major features. Sixty-five students visited Detroit on the fifth tour of the summer. They inspected the Detroit News' plant, the Institute of Arts, the Fisher building, radio station WJR, and the Public Library, and also visited Belle Isle. At the General Motors Proving ground, engineers conducted 55 students over the roads where per- formance tests are made and through the extensive experimental laboratories. The first excursion of the sum- mer, a free tour of Ann Arbor and vicinity, was attended by 80 stu- dents. Ann Arbor luncheon clubs provided cars for the trip. :-All of the excursions except the two of geological interest, directed by Professor Hobbs, were conducted by Wells.

WOMEN- HOLD FINAIJ' PARTY OFSUMMER Fifty Persons Attend Supper at Which Sports Winners Are Announced. As the "grand finale" to the sum- mer's work in the physical edu- cation department, all of the people who have been participating in the summer's activities held a splash party at the Intramural pool last night, which was followed by a supper at the Women's Athletic building. About fifty people attended and during the supper, the winners of all of the various sports were an- nounced. They were: Jean Ber- ridge, who placed first in the swim- ming meet with Mary Kary second, Margaret Seeley, third, and Mary Renshaw, fourth in that event. In; the tennis, Alise Westedarp came first in the intermediate tourna- ment with Mary Renshaw as run- ner-up. Jean Berridge placed first in the beginners' tournament with Ula Trodhal as runner-up. The golf tournament will not be finished until next week but Miss Marie Hartwig announced that there has been a bigger turn-out for it this year than ever before, with fifty people registered in the preliminaries. Dr. Margaret Bell, director of physical education for women an-I nounced yesterday that this has been the most successful summer of that department's career with about 1000 women participating int the various activities.I Sports V.oman As a result of the tennis finals played yesterday morning on the courts at Palmer field, Alise West- endarp and Jean Berridge are the new tennis champions. Miss Westendarp defeated Mary Renshaw (6-1) (3-6) (6-2) in the last round of the intermediate players tournament. The match was marked by a good quality of' tennis on the part of both players with Miss Westendarp showing an excellent serve and general good form throughout. Miss Renshaw was the only woman entered in that tournament who was not en- rolled in one of the summer tennis classes. Thefinal match of the begin- ners' tournament, Miss Berridge de- feated Ula Trodhal (6-4) (6-1). In the first set of this match, the two players seemed fairly even showing about the same calibre of playing, and each won on her own serving. However, Miss Berridge won the second match more easily as her playing was consistently better than her opponents who had tired before the second game was finish- ed, in spite of the rather good form which she showed throughout. Fifty players are entered in the qualifying rounds of the golf tour- nament which have been going on for the past two weeks. However, just the sixteen women who turn in the lowest scores will be left in the semi-finals, four of whom will enter the finals which are to be held on the University course next Tuesday. The last regular semi-weekly open swim which the women's physical education department has been sponsoring every Tuesday and Thursday evening in the Union pool will be held next Tuesday eve- ning. The regular swimming, golf, and tap dancing classes will close for the semester next Tuesday night. FOURTH VICTIM DEAD BATTLE CREEK, Aug. 14-(P)- The death of Albert Latta, 30, late Thursday brought to four the fatal- ities resulting from a fire which destroyed a garage here during the morning. The victims were trapped in the building and were burned before the horrified gaze of hundreds of spectators outside, who could see them through a plate glass show window. The window became mal- leable from the heat and resisted the frantic efforts of those trapped within the blazing building to es- cape. Firemen finally smashed the glass with bricks and rescued Lat- ta, an employe, who was standing ankle deep in burning timbers from the collapsed roof. Floyd Carlisle, 40, also an employe and Robert Finton, 20, and Gradie Ervin, 23, spectators were dead.

Methodist Leader Scheduled Deliver Sermon at Local Church Tomorrow. to Bishop Francis J. McConell, out- standing religious leader, will preach at the First Methodist Epis- copal church tomorrow morning. His subject will be "The Appeal to the Best in Men." Bishop McConnell has been called one of the modern social prophets. He is well-known nationally and internationally as the president of the Federal Council of Churches and for his many contributions to religious and secular magazines on subjects of church and state. He has written many religious books and may be characterized as an in- terpreter of Christianity. Among his works are "The Diviner Imman- nence", -"Personal Christianity", "Democratic Christianity" and "Is God Limited?". This past winter and spring Bish- op McConnell has been in India where he delivered the Barrows Lectures and presidedat confer- ences of the Methodist church. A stay of several months in that country enabled him to catch the spirit of the great Indian National movement which is so essentially Christian in method and achieve- ment. Dr. McConnell, who is a native of the State of Ohio, was educated at Ohio Wesleyan and Boston uni- versities. Following pastorates in Massachusetts and in New York, he was president of DePauw university in Indiana for a number of years. In 1912 he was elected to the epis- BISHOP M'CONNELL WILL SPEAK HERE copacy of the Methodist Episcopal church and in that administrative capacity now has charge of the New York city area.
