Last Year IS Made
With the enrollment figures mount-
ing daily and already much larger
than those set down last year on the
corresponding dates, officials pre-
dicted a new record for total regis-
tration for a Summer Session at the
University. The nunoer should draw
very close to 5,000, dwarfing the rec-
ord made last year of 4,528.
Of all the schools and colleges, the!
Graduate School had the greatest
attendance with 2,446, as compared
with 2,154 at this time last year. There
was a gain of 13.6 per cent in en-
rollment in this school alone.
Following the Graduate School, the
literary college had a total of 628, as
compared with 684 at this time last
year. This college was one of five
units of the University to drop in at
tendance so far this year. The oth-
ers were the Medical School, with 45
less students this year than in 1936,
the Law School with four less, the
School of Business Administrationt
with three, less, the education school
and college of architecture, each with I
eight less students in the 1937 ses-
sion.
The total gain of students, count-
ing every unit of the University of
course, is 256 to date, for a present
total enrollment of 4,451 as com-
pared with 4,195 last year. How-
ever, the total enrollment of the[
session will be far greater than the
present figure due to further late
registrations and tht second terms
held in certain divisions.l

Tapps'an Called
fGreatest Head
Of University
First President Changed
College Into University
Says Historian
SHenry Phillip Tappan, who was
asked to resign by the trustees of the
University in 1863, was called Michi-
gan's greatest president yesterday by
Dr. 0. W. Stephenson, head of the
department of social studies and au-
thor of a history of Ann Arbor as he
traced the history of the college in
the first of a series of lectures on the
general topic "Significant Trends in
American Education," in the Univer-
sity High School auditorium.
Dr. Stepenson praised his courage
and vision, crediting him with for-
mulating a policy which has brought
Michigan to its present state. Unfor-
tunately President Tappan who loved
his scotch mush more than the more
religious students and faculty of
those days approved of was a too bel-
ligerent and forbidding nature to
get support for these proposals. "In
a period when college education was
synonomous with a study of the
classics, President Tappan strove for
courses in such number as to allow
any student to study anything he
wanted," he said. In his administra-
tion the medical school, law school
and a school of civil engineering were
founded. He devoted himself to the
development of a school for graduate
studies which had he been success-

Expect Britain
To Recognize
State Of War
Status Of Belligerent May
Be Given Rebels If Italy,
Germany Collaborate
MoVe Would Depend
On Their Neutrality
LONDON, June 29.-(/P)-Informed
sources said tonight that Great Brit-
ain may agree to recognize Spanish
insurgent General Francisco Franco
as a belligerent if Germany and Italy
continue collaboration in the "hands
off Spain" program.
Usually reliable observers forecast
this as Britain's next move in an ef-
fort to keep the Civil War confined
to Spain after both Germany and
Italy flatly rejected a proposal by
Britain and France to patrol all of
Spain's coasts in the interests of neu-
trality.
Government spokesmen said that
should Britain agree to accord Franco
the rights of a belligerent, it would
not mean that his regime would be
recognized as equal to the Spanish
government.
Britain To Recognize War
Instead, they said, it would simply
be official recognition by Britain that
a state of war exists in Spain.
British observers said such action
by their government would amount
to "a pat on the back" for Germany
and Italy in exchange for their co-
operation for world peace.
Informed sources declared such a
move hinged upon the fact that
British Foreign Secretary Anthony
Eden was ready to do almost any-
thing to confine the war to Spain and
bring it to a speedy close.
Lord Plymouth, in outlining the
Anglo-French proposal to take over
the Spanish patrol, received a prompt
rejection from Germany and Italy.
Both Joachim Von Ribbetrop,
German ambassador, and Count Dino
Grandi, the Italiar envoy, asked hy-
pothetically what attitude Britain and
France would take if the roles were
reversed. That is, if Germany and
Italy suggested taking over the whole
naval patrol.
New Developments
Within Spain there were these de-
velopments:
Franco's men, marching toward the
important northern city of Santand-
er, captured the town of Valmaseda
without much resistance.
Insurgent artillery bombarded Ma-
drid again, killing several persons and
wounding many.
The Valencia government reported
discovery of evidence that an explo-
sion aboard the British destroyer
hunter in May was due to striking in-
surgent mines.
Will Install
Sodium Li.(rht
At Intersection
Approval given by the advisory
board of the state highway depart-
ment has virtually assured the in-
stallation of a sodium light at the
corner of the Ford and Plymouth
roads, northeast of Ann Arbor.
The fog penetrating device is de-
signed to reduce the accidents oc-
curing at that intersection where cars
travelling west on the Ford road of-

ten fail to see in time the dead-end
at Plymouth road. David Rank, '38,
was just recently released from the
hospital after incurring severe in-
juries in a crash there last February,
and at least one fatality has resulted
from the inadequate marking.

SOUTHPORT, Eng., June 29.-(P)
-America's professional golfers,
blown out of many a British cham-
pionship in the past, stood up bravely*
today in the face of as wild a wind
as ever blew in off the Irish Sea to
take a 22 to 1% lead over Great
Britain in defense of the Ryder Cup.
Playing a foreign type of game,
Scotch foursomes, and with the for-
eign, smaller ball in a land where
they never before have won the cup,
the U.S. players beat the British at
their own windy game. They gained
their single-point advantage by virtue
of the most astonishing victor.y in
the recent history of British golf.
The hero of this victory was 25-
year-old Byron Nelson, the slim f or-)
mer Texas railroad clerk whose name1
stands for all that's poetic and valor-1
ous in British hearts and whose deeds
oday added glory to the name.
The, youngster, paired with veteran
Ed Dudley, beat the British "in-
vincibles," Henry Cotton and Alf Pad-
gham, by 4 and 2.
Hook Demands
Red Puroe Of
Lewis Unions
WASHINGTON, June 29.-(/P)-A
demand that John L. Lewis eject
"communistic leaders" from the
Committee for Industrial Organiza-
tion came today from Hook, (Dem.,
Mich.).
"Some of the honest labor leaders
of Michigan have come to me to urge
my influence to get Communists
eliminated as CIO organizers," he
told the House.
Hook declared Lewis, generalissimo
of the current steel strike, had con-
demned and ousted "certain com-
munistic leaders" of his United Mine
workers several years ago, but that
the same men now are his liuten-
ants.
The ranks of labor will be disrupt-
ed ,he continued, unless these per-
sons are ejected again.
Senator Bailey (Dem., N.C.) also
criticized the CIO today, issuing a
statement accusing it of "lawless-
ness" and the government of failure
to maintain order.
"The failure of governing author-
ities to meet this lawlessness with
the means of maintaining order has
created a bad impression, has en-
couraged the lawless and caused
widespread alarm," Bailey declared.

Fletcher Hits
I Secret Ballot'
Used In House
Says Device Defeated Bill
To Provide Federal Aid
For Education
DETROIT, June 29.-(IP)-Rep.
Brooks Fletcher (Dem., Ohio) told1
the National Education Association
here tonight that a house committee
by "the undemocratic device known
as the secret ballot" blocked progress
of a measure to provide federal aid
for education.
The Harrison-Black-Fletcher bill,
he said, would provide an annual in-
itial appropriation of $100,000,000 to
be increased over a period of years to
$300,000,000 for aid of schools.
Of the committee action, Fletcher
said, "There is no place for legislative
secrecy in a democracy on legislation
in behalf of the children of today
whose education and thinking will
help to determine America's destiny
tomorrow."
Mrs. Mary R. Beard, New Milford,
Conn., author, praised the teachers'-
group for "a widening and deepen-
ing sensitivity to the changing re-
quirements of decent social living."
The resolutions committee prepared
proposals to prevent war for action
by the representative assembly of the
group'Thursday morning. Five steps
in maintaining peace will be recom-
mended.
Approximately 50 per cent of a
group of full-time school physicians
questioned by the American Associa-
tion of School Physicians have had
additional training beyond medical
school, according to a report by Dr(P).
Earl E. Kleinschmidt of the medical
school.

JOHNSTOWN, Pa., June 29.-(P)-
City Council concurred tonight at a
special meeting with the action of
Mayor Daniel J. Shields of this strike-
torn city who told two of three strike
leaders he would no longer be re-
sponsible for their safety in Johns-
town.
Shields had ordered city police to
bring three strike leaders before the
special session, but the officers re-
ported they were unable to find H. M.
Van Sant and said they believed he
was not in the city.
Mark, Jones Hear Order
The two who heard the expulsion
order were:
James Mark, sub-regional director
of the Committee for Industrial Or-
ganization-affiliated Steel Workers
Organizing Committee and president
of district 2 of the United Mine
Workers of America.
C. W. Jones, vice-president of the
Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen.
The meeting was stormy and
marked by a verbal clash between
Shields and Samuel Defrancesco, at-
torney for the labor leaders.
WASHINGTON, June 29.-(WP)-
President Roosevelt turned to a
Shakespearean quotation today to ex-
press an opinion on extremists on
both sides of the steel strike.
He told reporters that he and
Chairman Charles P. Taft of the
steel mediation board believed that a
majority of people are saying just one
thing about the strike, "a plague on
both your houses."
The mediation board, meanwhile,
was disbanded after failing to bring
about peace. Secretary Perkins said,
however, that the federal govern-
ment still is keeping, an eye on the
strike.
Group Makes Report
Before leaving for Europe, Charles
P. Taft, 2nd, board chairman, turned
in to Miss Perkins the group's final
report. Taft and Edward F. Mc-
Grady, another member, drafted it
this morning. Miss Perkins said she
would make it public as soon as it is
approved by Lloyd Garrison, the third
member.
Acknowledging that the govern-
ment's efforts so far had been futile,
Miss Perkins told reporters she still
is studying the situation to determine
if further mediatory moves are pos-
sible.
The Labor Department chief an-
nounced the board believes that a
"man to man discussion around the
conference table" would be necessary
to break the strike deadlock.
Helen Jacobs
Is Eliminated
At Wimbledon
WIMBLEDON, Eng., June 29.-(P)
--Dorothy Round, England's 27-year-
old top ranking player, pounded
Helen Jacobs out of the all-England
tennis championships today and left

blond Alice Marble to carry on the
fight for the title America has cap-
tured eight times in the last ten
years.
In as stunning an upset as this an-
cient tennis center ever has witnessd,
Miss Round, daughter of an English
clergyman, eliminated Miss Jacobs,
the defending champion, 6-4, 6-2 and
joined Miss Marble, the American
titleholder, Jadwiga Jedrzejowska,
hard-hitting Polish girl, and Mme.
Rene Mathieu of France in tfe semi-
finals.
Thursday's pairings will send Miss
Marble against Mlle. Jedrzejowska
and Mme. Mathieu against Miss
Round.
It was a day of form reversals but
Miss Round's unexpected triumph was
by far the greatest. The English girl,
who soon will be married to Dr.

championship in 1934 but her play

In Auto Accident
Harry Bennett, personnel director
of the Ford Motor Company, was due
to leave the University Hospital this
morning following treatment for min-
or injuries received yesterday in an
automobile crash at the intersection
of Geddes and Harris roads, four
miles northeast of Ypsilanti.
"He sustained cuts about the right
eye and a bad shock," Dr. Albert C.
Kerlikowske, chief resident physician
of the hospital said, "and he should
be able to leave Wednesday morning."
Gordon Westlake, 23 years old, of
Ferndale, was driving the car that
collided with the Bennett auto, which
was driven by Bennett's bodyguard,
