The trip was postponed until next week-end. Twenty-five students, most of them from the Graduate School, had al- ready boarded a Greyhound bus at 1 p. m.-in preparation for the sched- uled three-day excursion under the direction of Prof. Laurence M. Gould of the geology department when a discrepancy between the driver's commission and the University order was discovered, according to Profes- sor Maurer. The trip was called off at 2:30 p. m. The . driver's orders called for a return trip tonight, whereas the con- tract with the Greyhound company stipulated a stop-over until tomor- row, Professor Maurer said. Furthermore, the driver had been ordered to limit side trips at the Falls to 15 miles, while the agree- ment with the company called for unlimited use of the bus there, ac- cording to Professor Maurer. Plans were immediately made to conduct the tour regardless, post- poning it until next Saturday and traveling to Niagara Falls by train. Professor Gould said yesterday that membes: of .the party took the post- ponement in good nature and seem- ed to appreciate the situation. Under the terms of the driver's commission it would have been im- possible for Professor Gould to con-. dact the excursion in accordance. with his plans, which were similar to those of previous years, he said. The . postponement will make it necessary to postpone also the ex- cursion to the General Motors prov- ing grounds at Milford, scheduled for July 15. Next Saturday's party will leave Ann Arbor for the Falls at 7:05 a. m. and arrive at 2:27 p. m. The return trip will be made late Sunday, arriving here a t8:35 a. m. Monday.

Ann Arbor Temperature Hits 90.3-Degree High Ann Arbor weather took another upward turn yesterday when the thermometer reached a maximum of 90.3 degrees at 1 p. m. A low of 67.8 had been registered at 7 a. m., and the peak had fallen off by 7 p. m. to 83.8, but Associated Press dispatches which showed local high temperatures to be part of a heat wave spreading over the country in- dicated that prospects for any real relief were slight, although showers were expected. CHEAPER FOOTBALL TICKETS NORMAN, . Okla.-(IP)-New low prices, scaling down to 75 cents, will be in effect for football games at the University of Oklahoma this fall.

Vetoes State Milk Commission Plan Accepts Legislation Pro- viding For Big Cut In Normal School Budgets LANSING, July 7.-(A)-More than a score of bills were signed or vetoed by Governor Comstock today. He approved the old-age pension bill providing for a maximum pay- ment of $1 a day for indigent per- sons 70 years of age or over and an annual head tax on all residents of the State between the ages of 21 and 70. The governor vetoed a bill pro- posing to establish a State milk com- mission. He held it would set a dan- gerous precedent to attempt to fix milk prices by governmental agency. The proposed law would open a way for endless litigation, the governor said. A bill appropriating $1,427,270 a year to State normal colleges, a re- duction of approximately one-third under appropriatoins of the last fiscal year was approved. The sep- arate sums are: Michigan State Normal, Ypsilanti, $529,262 a year; Central State Teachers, Mt. Pleas- ant, $210,602, Western State Teach- ers College, Kalamazoo, $519,262, and Northern State Teachers College, $168,144 a year. Stocks Surge To Ne wA DollarDrops NEW YORK, July 7.-(P)-Stocks and many leading commodities, in- cluding wheat and corn, surged to new highs in turbulent markets to- day, but profit-taking eventually clouded the picture of soaring prices, although a new 1933 average high was attained at closing time. Stocks, in a 7,000,000 share ses- sion-one of the largest of the cur- rent rise-finished irregularly high- er after an excited forenoon advance of $1 to $4. Wheat lost about a cent a bushel and corn 1% to 2/ to 2 3-8 cents after both had risen 1 to 2 cents. All wheat deliveriesepenetrat- ed the dollar mark. Cotton's best effort was a rise of 50 to 70 cents a bale; later it subsided and was off 5 cents to $1.15 net. Traders who use dollar deprecia- tion as a guide for market policies saw American currency slump badly. The British pound sterling spent much of the day around $4.74, where it was up about 16 cents, while Eu- ropean gold units were correspond- ingly strong. On the stock exchange, prices zoomed upward in the morning with a vigor that put the ticker 26 minutes in arrears. Profit-takers, however, began to have their innings around noon and from then until the late trading the market was mostly lower. Horse Runs Away; Halts At Traffic Light; Is Caught NEW YORK July 7.-(-)-A milk wagon horse got bored with the Great White Way. While his driver delivered milk to a Broadway rest- aurant, Teddy galloped away. But Teddy used his head, accord- ing to Policeman Kelly. "The horse turned west on Forty- seventh St., which is westbound one- way," Kelly testified. "And I caught him when he stopped for a traffic light." 3,000 Crowd League At Annual Reception A group of students and faculty people estimated at more than 3,- 000 crowded the League last night, guests of Dean Edward H. Kraus at the annual Summer Session dean's reception. The function was the occasion (By The Associated Press) Jimmie Mattern, world flier given up for dead by all but a trusting few, is safe in Siberia. From the little trading post of An- adir, word came today that the avia- tor who disappeared on June 14 while making the first solo flight around the world was safe. The news was dispatched by the flier himself, relayed across the wastes of Siberia to Moscow and sent on from there to his homeland. "Safe, Anadir, Chukotka, Siberia," the message read, and it was signed "Jimmie Mattern." "I was confident all the while," said the mother. "I knew he was safe all the time," said the wife. "We always had confidence," said the backers. When Mattern's message was re- ceived the Coast Guard in Washing- ton disclosed that ever since the flyer- disappeared the cutter Northland had been searching Alaskan waters for him. Today word was sent to the North- land of Mattern's safety and Coast Guard officials expected the cutter to be in touch with the flyer in a few hours. Only or.e mossage was received from Mattern, and that had taken two days to be relayed to civilization, so that no details were known. It was not known whether he crashed or was merely forced down or how far he had to travel to reach the little trading postfrom which he sent out his message to the world. S. J. Sackett and H. B. Jameson, of Chicago, two of Mattern's backers, announced that they would aid him in completing his flight or in financ- ing another round-the-world journey. "We always had confidence in Jimmie," said Jameson. "He had demonstrated at all times that he's a cool, heady flyer." Misfortune had beset Mattern's, trip at freqeunt intervals, but every time the plucky pilot, who has been barnstormer, movie stunt man and air mail carrier, pulled through to safety. DENVER, July 7.-(AO)-A cloud- burst sent a 20 foot wall of water roaring down Bear Creek Canyon into the villages of Idledale and Mor- rison west of Denver late today, causing fear for the lives of several persons. The Denver Post said eight were believed to have drowned in the flood. The water caused extensive dam- age in both Morrison and Idledale, a resort town. Mrs. Clare E. Evans, telephone operator, told the Associated Press there had been no reports of deaths at Morrison, butnbodies of numerous dead animals had floated through after the cloudburst struck above Idledale. Motorists on the canyon highway abandoned their cars and fled to safety to the nearest slope. A dancehall and other buildings in Morrison were swept away on the tide, as also were many summer cot- tages and cabins. One man, whose name was not learned, told C. E. Peinze, Morrison merchant, that he escaped after be- ing in the water for thirty minutes, but had lost his wife and four-year old child. Fire May Cause Charter Of House To Be Revoked Revocation of Theta Kappa Nu fraternity's charter may be the re- sult of financial difficulties which were brought to a climax by a fire which occurred in the chapter house at 818 Hill St. early yesterday morn- ing. Originating in the basement of the building, the fire resulted in damage estimated at more than $3,000. When firemen arrived the house was found to be unoccupied and they reported having gained no in- formation as to the cause of the blaze. Two lines of hose were used and some difficulty experienced in controlling the fire which had burned through a section of the first floor by the time the equipment arrived. The roof was also reported as hav- ing been slightly. damaged. Firemen fought the conflagration from 5 to 8 a. m. before it was finally ex- tinguished. Board Of Regents To Discuss New Budget The Board of Regents of the University will meet July 17 to discuss and probably pass the budget for the fiscal year which opened July 1, it was learned last night. The new budget has been in the process of preparation since June 16 when the State Legislature passed the appropriation for the University that drastically cut its revenue. Thenew budget, it is under- stood, will make provisions for the elimination of teaching posts and other positions and will attempt to combine curricula where pos- sible.

Physicists From Four Foreign Lands Attend Symposium Here. U. S. Delegation Saves Economic Conference LONDON, July 7.-- (P) - The United States, followed by virtually all the world outside the continent of Europe, pressed forward tonight under the leadership of Cordell Hull, American secretary of state, to save the World Economic Conference from a downfall which Hull believes would turn back the clock of civilization at least 100 years. The American secretary in private talks with statesmen of Great Brit- ain and her dominions, the Scandi- navian countries, Japan, China and the neighbor nations of the Western Hemisphere, fired them.with his vision of the meaning of failure: "A word bereft of all co-operative spirit and with efforts for peace and disarmament doomed perhaps for generations." The result was a lineup against the continental group, led by the French, which had sought to aban- don all efforts to solve monetary problems with the single exception of debts. Word of the 25 to 15 victory in the sub-committee of the monetary, which decided to continue discus- sions on every phase of the confer- ence agenda, was taken to Hull at his hotel by Senator James Couzens of Michigan, the lone' Republican in the American delegation. It was the Michigan Senator who spoke out against the French in the sub-com- mittee battle and who carried the brunt of the fight. The American delegation was ral- lying behind their chief, and he, with his colleagues and the members of the other delegations, began to work out a concrete program which was expected to include the raising of prices and the shortening of hours of labor.
