I do not see how we could get along without Pro- fessor Vibbert, who is the Chairman of the Union's committee on French relations. Only yesterday one of the professors of the University of Dijon and a representative of the foreign office spoke to me in great apprecia- tion.of his sympathetic understanding of the French people and the charming way in which he deals with them. It means a great deal to us to have a professor from a representative Amer- ican University who knows France so intimately and speaks the language so well. "You and your associates on the Board of Trustees I am sure would be delighted if you were here and could see how effectively the Union is func- tioning. I have yet to hear a word of criticism from any of the representa- tive French officials or men prominent in the various American activities here regarding the purposes or the work of the Union."

Cadets Assigned for Vacancies Cadets have been promoted to fill these vacancies, according to a state- ment issued from the R. O. T. C. of- fice last night. A list of the promotion will be published later. In order to receive credit for last semester's work the cadets possessing incompletes must make up the work by March 9. In case of failure, the mark of incomplete will automatically hange to one of "not passed," which will act as a barrier to a degree. New Company for New Cadets A new company will be formed from the students who have selected mili- tary training this semester and who have not registered in this department for the first semester. They will be given special drills until they reach the standing of all the cadets in the organization. As soon as this new company has advanced beyond a cer- tain stage they will in all probability be split up and assigned equally to the other companies in the cadet corps. The new cadets will report for drill at 4:15 o'clock Thursday afternoon in front of Waterman gymnasium. Ab- sences from the first drill, and all fu- ture drills, will be reported and re- corded at the office. Two hours drill is required to eliminate a one-hour absence. with his head resting against an iron pipe.

Watching Negotiations Diplomats of the older school are watching with keen interest the "ex- tra official negotiations." They point out that peace negotiations on a great scale actually are going on, only in- stead of being conducted in the se- crecy of a round table conference, the great war issues are now being ex- pounded and critically analyzed in the light of publicity and the world's forum. Major Vaughan Attends Alumni Meet Major V. H. Vaughan of the Medical school, represented the University at the annual meeting of the Washington,; D. C., alumni association held in Wash- ington, Feb. 7. President Brarry B. Hutchins was forced to be absent. Dr. Charles Burrows presided.

Others are listed under history, polit- ical science, romance languages, Russ- ian and botany. Students can secure these bulletins at the registrar's office. "It is the duty of every undergrad- uate not of draft age tosattendsum- mer school this year," said Prof. E. H. Krauss, yesterday, reiterating the statement of President Harry B. Hutchins on that point. "The courses are equivalent to those given duringI the regular session and reduce the time necessary to secure a degree." Professor Krauss further called at- tention to the words of President Wil- son which state that "it would serious- ly impair America's prospects of suc-' cess in this war if the supply of high- ly trained men were unnecessarily diminished." Rugs cleaned and washed. Satisfac- tion guaranteed. Koch and Henne.- Adv. Washington, Feb. 11. -Only 10 names were added to the list of sur- vivors of the liner Tuscania by dis- patches to the war department today. The list of American soldiers who were on board the liner and who have not been reported rescued now stands at 340, although it is certain that about 200 of these and probably more are safe. The war department tonight was still trying to decipher a number of names received by cable in garbled form and a considerable addition to the list of survivors may be announc- ed tomorrow. In many instances it is considered possible that men still recorded as un- reported have succeeded in getting private messages to their families. I WOMEN TO TRY OUT FOR THE NORTHERN LEAGUE ORATIONS Several women have designated their intention of taking part in the annual tryout for the Northern league oratorical meet. All orations must be in the hands of Mr. R. K. Immel of the oratory department before Wednesday, Feb. 13. Class preliminaries will be held within a week although the de- finite date has not been set.
