ECHANICS PROGRESS
FASTEU THAN STUDENTS
01PLES OF RIFLE PARTS TO BE
USED FOR NEXT
COURSE
"Members of the gunsmith squad
the first training detachment are
way ahead of University students in
e quantity and the quality of work
tred out," asserted Mr. John H.
evenson, foreman and instructor in
e instrument shop, yesterday after-
on. "The reason for the rapid
ogress is undoubtedly due to the
sire of the training men to learn
e trade, and the longer and stead-
r hours in the shops. The men also
ork faster than the University stu-
nts.
"The majority of the training men
te made wonderful progress since
ey have been working in the Uni-
rsity shops. In fact, the results
te been more than satisfactory."
Samples to Be Models
A number of samples of different
,rts of rifles, airplane motors, and
Iscellaneous machinery, which have
en made by the men of the first
aining detachment, will be mounted
t a board and used as models for the
cond squad of men due here about
te 15.
Several articles of unusual merit
construction will be placed in Mr.
evenson's p Avate collection. One of
e training men, whose work will
'ace the collection, is a newspaper
an. Previous to his entry as a
'eial student in the University, he
d no practical knowledge of tools,
insmithing, or machinery. At the
esent time this particular student
ugs among the highest in the gun-
aith squad.
Men Obtain High Marks
In the gunsmith department, an
vrage of 75 per cent is considered
irly high. There are but few Uni-
rsity students who attain this
andard. With the exception of three
four men, all of them are obtain-
g a grade of 80 per cent or better.
By the time the first detachment
aves Ann Arbor, the men will be
a familiar with the construction of
lies and guns, that they will be ca-
ble of assembling and taking apart
eapons with their eyes closed. Speed,
also ani essential requisite for the
:illed gunnith. The graduate
tould be able to assemble a rifle or
gun in a short space of time.
New Auto Joins "Heaven"
Among the newest arrivals to knock
x the rusty gates of the "automobile
aven," (which, for the sake of those
doubt, is in the rear of the Engi-
ring building) was an old, batter-
and delapidated Imperial road-
er. The engine is in fairly bad con-
tion, but the body, although serv-
eable, requires little attention. The
w comer will be cordially welcom-
i by the men in gas engine construc-
n, and work will be started on the
achine immediately.
Today will be a holiday for the spe-
al students. They will not have to
tend shops. Every man in the de-
chment will be given a "day to him-
lf." A score or more of the
on will leave for their homes
Detroit and surrounding towns, al-
rity of them will remain in town.

Mae Marsh's latest picture, "The
Face in the Dark," was picturized
from Irvin S. Cobb's story, "The
Web." Miss Marsh has a role to play,
entirely different from anything that
she has ever done. She takes the
part of a girl who solves mysteries.
From childhood, she is able to trace
down, step by step, those guilty of
wrong doing. le her quest for a mas-
ter criminal, she comes face to face
with her own father.
Charlie Chaplin is coming to the
Arcade June 7 and 8, in "A Dog's
Life." The American Exhibition paid
Chaplin $134,000 for this one comedy
and they say frankly that it is worth
every cent of the price paid.

Lun~~grer Has ters
His Former Coach
Michigan's victory over Illinois
Tuesday is an example of pupil mas-
tering master. Coach Carl Lundgren,
responsible for the baseball that the
winners of the 1918 Conference
championship know, learned his first
rudiments of the national game of
Coach George Huff, while a student
at the University of Illinois.
Huff, at present known as the man
who has turned out as many cham-
pionship baseball teams as any col
lege coach, did a good job with Lund-
gren, and the man who assisted in
Winning many a game for Illinois
stepped into the majors. Most of the
present Wolverine coach's big league
success came under the tutelage of
Frank Chance while the Chicago
Cubs were winning National league
pennants and world championships in
rapid succession. Lundgren was one
of the stpr hurlers with this powerful
team and between 1902 and 1907
broke into the headline as often as
any other pitcher on the squad.
His usefulness as a hurler came to
an end when he did that which every
pitcher lives in constant fear of do-
ing and was forced to give up base-
ball playing as a profession because
of his injured arm. His inability to
stand the strain of playing did not
mean that he was unable to take a
big part in the baseball world as the
past season has demonstrated.
Not only did he succeed in produc-
ing a team which under most adverse
conditions copped the Conference ti-
tle the first year of Michigan's re-
turn to the Big Ten, but he was al-
most entirely responsible for the Wol-
verine team in 1913 that won the col-
lege world's championship. Lund-
gren is a good coach, of that there
is no question. The only question
that remains in the minds of the fol-
lowers of Conference baseball is that
if Huff was the best coach in the Big
Ten what is his former pupil?
COACH MITCHELL IS HAPPY
FATHER OF SEVEN POUND BOY
Coach Elmer Mitchell, who has
been managing the affairs of the
Varsity basketball and fresh football
and baseball teams, is passing cigars
for an acquisition to his family-one
Robert Dillingham Mitchell, now
three days old and weighing around
seven and one-half pounds.
Mitch has decided that young Rob-
ert will be a left-hander and will
bend them over the plate on Ferry
field some day in the near future--
about the time Coach Yost's son is
smashing off tackle. Coach Mitchell
himself won his letter as a Varsity
ball player here several seasons ago.
Mrs. Mitchell graduated from the
University in 1913. She was a mem-
ber of Chi Omega sorority. Mitchell
graduated in 1912
