WEDNESDAY NIGHT SET AS LIMIT
TO ABTIN MICHIGAN'S $25-000
QUOTA FOR FREDHPWAR FUND

LATE REPORTS LAST NIGHT
BRING SUBSCRIPTIONS
TO $17,235
UNIVERSITY WOMEN
$100 AHEAD OF MEN
Plans for Drive for Final $8,000 to be
Formulated This Morn-
ing
Owing to the slow progress of sub-
scriptions to the Student Friendship
war fund, the committees in charge
have decided to continue the campaign
to Wednesday night in hopes that the
full quota of $25,000 may be reached.
Reports late last night at Lane
hail, headquarters for the drive, stat-
ed that but $17,235 had been raised.
The campaign should have closed Sat-
urday night.
Women in the University are still
$100 ahead of the men in subscrip-
tions. Eight hundred and thirty men
have subscribed to the fund, with a
total return of $5,355.50, while 660
women subscribers contributed $5,-
435.19. Six girls. in one team ob-
tained $453 in pledges,
Proportion on Wrong Side
"This proportion is entirely on the
wrong side of the house," said Mr. N.
C. Fetter, secretary of the campaign."
I am surprised that the men are allow-
ing the women to defeat them in this
cause."
"Should the pace set by the faculty
of the engineering college be maintain-
ed in all other colleges of the Univer-
sity, the total faculty subscription
would amount to $18,000; should the
pledges of the women students be
proportionate to the record made by
Martha Cook dormitory, the girls would
subscribe a total of $10,694; should
the men equal the average of the first
168 men subscribers, they would
pledge a total of $30,000, which would
make a grand total of $58,594 for the
University," estimated Mr. Glenn Hers
man, financial secretary of the Stu-
dents Christian association.
Some High Contributions
Ane fraternity has averaged $12.11
per man. The largest gift from the
faculty is $200, the highest men stu-
dent's contribution, $125, while the
largest donation from the women stu-
dents was $100.
Plans for the drive to obtain the
$8,000 remaining to complete the Un-
iversity's quota, will be formulated at
a meeting of the executive committee
to be held at 9 o'clock this morning
at Lane hall. All solicitors and cam-
paigners will meet in Lane hall at
$:30 o'clock tonight,
Members of the executive commit-
tee believe that the entire $25,000 can
be obtained within a few days.
Confident Amount Will be Raised
"We will not believe that the Uni-
versity will allow her pledge to the
other colleges in Michigan to be brok-
en. The word of the University when1
. she agreed to raise this money is
good," declared one committee mem-
ber. "I feel confident that we will
reach our quota if the students will
respond to this worthy enterprise."

well to strengthen the government in

ITALIA9NS SUCCESSFUL
IN MINTAINING LINE
AMERICAN CASUALTIES GROW;
KERENSKY REPORTED
IN FLIGHT
(By Associated Press)
Undated war story, Nov. 17.-Italy's
armies are making an heroic and, so
far, successful stand against the Aus-
tro-German masses thrown against
them along the Piave river, and in
the mountainous region from the
river, westward to the edge of the
Trentino district. The river line has
not been breached at any point, while
the thrust of the Austrians south-
ward from the hills is making small
progress.
Position Maintained
It is now more than a week since
the Italians retreating from the Tag-
liamento crossed the west bank of the
Piave and took up their defensive po-
sition. The German command lost
no time in attempting to force a pas-
sage of the river. The Italian ress-
tance, however, seems to be growing
stronger rather than otherwise. The
latest Austro-German attempts to
gain a hold on the westerly side of
the Piave were not only frustrated,
but the enemy columns were badly cut
up and nearly 1,000 Teutons taken
prisoners.
Line Yields Slightly
The Italian line has yielded slightly
in the hills east of Brenta, where the
capture of Monte Prassolan by Aus-
tro-Hungarian troops is announced by
Berlin. No further advances are claim-
ed.
Military operations in the other war
theaters were on a small scale. The
most important move was made in
Flanders by the British, who pushed
further north on the Goaberg spur,
capturing a strongly fortified redoubt
known as Vocation farm.
In Palestine the British forces,
which recently had made so specta-
cular an advance up the Mediterran-
ean coast to the neighborhood of Jaffa,
are still moving forward but appar-
ently are feeling their way with cau-
tion. 
Americans Active
On the French front held by the
American troops, there has been in-
creased activity on the part of the ar-
tillery, and there have been additions
to the American casualty lists, some
of which occurred when a German
shell hit an American gun. The Amer-
ican batteries have been energetic in
their reply..
Naval Engagement
On the naval side of the war, there
is an interesting development in the
North Sea where British forces in
selgoland bight encountered German
cruisers Saturday morning. The Brit-
ish admiralty reported that the Ger-
mans made off at high speed with
British vessels in pursuit.

abouts being unknown in Petrograd.

by the name of Berry, who plays fu
back for Pennsylvania's football te
lived up to his advance notice .t
afternoon and almost single-han
and alone defeated Michigan 16 ti
on Franklin field.
Berry was responsible for the
points which defeated the Wolveri:
last year and his total points scor
equalled his 1916 record. His a
around playing was primarily resp
sible for the blasting of Michiga
championship hopes.
Berry ran around the ends, ploug
through center, smashed off ta
blocked, tackled, punted from one e
of the field to the other and bo
three drop kicks between the i
rights, one of them from a diffi
angle, when the result was still
doubt. Outside of this, Penn's fulb
and star was loafing throughout .1
battle.
Michigan Fights Hard
Michigan did not go down with
a fight. Even when the afternc
shadows showed the nearness of I
end of the game, the Wolverines we
still battling, struggling on, hoping
the face of almost unsurpassable o

able Berry found a stone wall wh
he tried for a touchdown, while Lg

line, Michigan would not have yie

Breaks Against Wolverines
Unquestionably the breaks 'we

though, aside from the first few mo
ents of play, Michigan was unable
make a first down, it was a piece of m
fortune which turned the tide irresst
