LET'S HELP HIM
Yesterday afternoon P r e s i d e n t
Hutchins gave an address to the fresh-
men and sophomores in which he
stated his objections to hazing. The
principal reason for the objection to
hazing which he advanced is that it
gives Michigan a bad name.
Hzing as it has been conducted on
State street the past few nights is but
little better than mob rule. The
person with the loudest voice and the
roughest manner becomes the leader.
Our psychological instinct is to follow
with the rest of the "gang." Things
started with the idea of a little fun
soon degenerate into conduct that we
are ashamed of when we reach home
to think it over.
But the big thing is that we are
" hurting ourselves and others by our
conduct. We enjoy at the University
many advantages made possibly by the
tax-payers of the state of Michigan.
And the man who is primarily respon-
sible for these advantages .of late is
President Hutchins. He has done
much among the alumni for Michigan,
one thing being his work for the new
Michigan Union building.
Let's help him. He's our friend.
And the best way we can show our
appreciation of him is by heeding the
advice given to us yesterday.
MORE THAN A FOOTBALL GAME
Today's clash with Case means more
thant the usual first game of a sea-
son. The 1916 opener simply started
off a year in which the Maize and
Blue was mainly without friends and
natural territorial enemies.
Michigan is this afternoon begin-
ning her first contest as a member of
the Big Ten. She has alliances, ter-
ritorial foes and natural rivals she
will strive to conquer. The fight is
more furious than for 10 years-since
Michigan broke away from the Big
.Nine. Her handicaps are great. She
has lost many stars. But so have the
rest.
Today's contest is more than a prac-
tice for Yost. The other Conference
schools are now his actual rivals.
They are watching him, and the whole
country with them.
How many of the soph hazers wore
pots last year?
The word "Please" is printed on
stakes placed around the campus for
a purpose.
The equinoctial came a little late.
And now England is planning for
another one of those successful
"comeback parties.''
Slacker's False Exemption Recalled
"My husband has no dependents. He
doesn't support me and the child
here," a woman sobbed Thursday in
the local draft board office.
The man had been granted an ex-
emption claim to support his family
but the board immediately took steps
to revoke his exemption. He will re-
port for 'national army service in Bat-
tle Creek at the next call.

the natural training that every Am-
erican boy has in throwing a base-
ball, and grenade throwing is ex-
pected to prove an easy accomplish-
ment to the soldiers of the 85th divis-
ion stationed at Camp Custer.
Mr. S. T. Bailey, former squash and
handball coach at the Detroit Ath-
letic club has been appointed grenade
officer of the division. Mr. Bailey has
been at Fort Sill, Okla., where he
took an advanced course in throwing
and manufacturing hand grenades.
He there studied high explosives, the
different kinds of bombs which will
be used by the American army, the
manufacture of emergency missiles
and the manner of throwing.
As the skillful use of the hand gren-
ade in trench warfare is of the ut-
most and of an ever increasing im-
portance, the greater proficiency of
the American soldier in throwing the
grenades will do much toward making
him a more effective fighter than the
'European, is the opinion of army of-
ficials. As soon as a site is selected
the work will begin with throwing of
dummies, to be followed later by live
bombs.
Professor Henderson Promises Help
Prof. William D. Henderson of the
University of Michigan has promised
the Y. M. C. A. 175 teachers and lec-
turers who will co-operate with the
various "Y" instructors, so that the
camp will not be lacking in intellectu-
al opportunities. The need for the
education of the illiterate soldiers,
who are mostly foreigners, has been
greatly felt so that classes in English
will be started as soon as. text books
arrive.
Arrangements are being made to
float a part of the new Liberty loan
in small denominations among the
soldiers. It is believed that a plan
will be evolved whereby they can be
bought on monthly payments. An ar-
rangement must also be outlined in
which assignments of pay are made
to the treasury department so tha
the latter may look to the war depart-
ment for the money.
Spicy Nelvs from
Other Colleges
Did you ever see a surveyor doin
his work with a toothpick and denta
floos? Well, that's the way they do i
at Ohio State university. This yea
the initiations although few are fun
nier and more fantastic than ever.
Movies as usual! This was th
decision reached by the union boar
at Indiana university last week. Th
movies are to be given in the Unio
Photoplay theater and are always o
very good quality.

Attending a meeting of the boar
of trustees of a state universit
seems rather, a prosaic proceedin
but the way Charles Kettering a mem
ber of the board on the Ohio Stat
university does it is quite a differeni
matter. Last Tuesday persons o
the campus were attracted by the hu
of- an airplane high in the air. The
supposed that it was connected wit

the government school at Dayton, bu
is was only Mr. Kettering attendin
his meeting. He used a "Little Scout
Wright airplane and flew from Dayto
and back,a distance of 140 miles.

STUDENTS RESPONSIBLEj
TO CITY FOR CONDUCT
CITY MARSHALL SAYS COLLEGE
LAWS NOT ALL THAT
BINDS MEN
"University students are not respon-
sible for conduct to the University
alone, they are also amenable to the
city ordinances," declared Thomas
O'Brien, acting city marshall. "We
treat the students with tolerance, but
all violations of the ordinances will
meet with the usual penalties."
Several regulations which directly
affect students while residents of Ann
Arbor have been compiled by the po-
plice and forbid riding bicycles on
sidewalks, playing ball in the streets,
tacking signs on telegraph or tele-
phone poles and driving machines
faster than 10 miles per hour within
the city limits.
Driving a taxi or dray without a
license, and opening the muffler on an
automobile while within the limits or
parking any vehicle within 25 feet of
a hydrant makes the violator liable to
prosecution.
Bull dogs must be muzzled as well
as licensed. All dogs must at all
times wear a license tag.
"We don't anticipate any trouble
in enforcing the rules," said Mr.
O'Brien, "this is merely the warning,
'ignorance of the law,' you know, is
no excuse."
World's Greatest Wireless Installed
The most powerful wireless station
in the world has just been opened in
Honolulu this week. It broke the rec-
ord for long distance wireless in com-
municating with Secretary of the Navy
Daniels at Sayville on Long Island,
a distance of 5,000 miles.
We are decorating some of the best
homes in the city. Call 237. C. H.
