COLLEGE NOT TO BE CLOSED
Many Students Will Not be Able to
Hear "Billy" Sunday on
' Booze."
Contrary to prevailing opinion,1
classes will not be dismissed to enabler
the students to hear "Billy" Sunday inr
his sermon on "Booze" at Weinberg'sI
Coliseum, Monday morning, President

New Uniform Apparel Will Now Make
Attractive Engineers Appear
as Workmen
I saw my friend, the engineer, and
pulled him by the arm, and said, "You-
've spent the summer a-working on
the farm. The healthy glow upon
your mug and eke the coat of tan,
does not bespeak the student, my en-
gineering man."
His smile, it was delightful, of a
real heart-warming kind, as he said,
" Why" hello! Have you heard what's
in the wind?" And I answered that I
had not, but begged he'd spring the
jest (whle I tucked his little sliding
rule more snugly in his vest).
"I've just come", he said, "from
meeting with the rest of the seven-
teen's. Been listening to a project for
to change our style of jeans. Seems
our life won't be worth living till we
inject a little joy by parading on the
campus in our 'pants' of corduroy!
Swell dressers of the senior class are
pretty nigh in tears, but the motion it
was carried by the rough-neck engin-
eers. They've appointed a committee
to select the special brand that will
cover with distinction-- well -the
transit-bearing band. And those that
fuss with test tubes and with
rheostats and such, will either wear
the corduroys or get themselves in
dutch."
Thus saying, he waxed silent, in his
eyes a mournful gleam. "How will
you look," I asked him, "to that lit-
erary queen?"
"Like Chaplin in his photoplay,
'Rube Hiram in the City'," and his
language as he turned away was any-
thing but pretty.

Chicago, Oct. 19.-Several women
who attempted to distribute Hughes

President Wilson was addressing 5,000
women at the auditorium, were mob-
bed late today and the literature and

Washington, Oct. 19.-Reports that
a German submarine, presumably the
U-53, has been sunk off Nantucket
were generally discredited by naval
officials this afternoon, and also dis-
counted by British embassy officials.
Washington, Oct. 19.-Administra-
tion officials doubted today that Eng-
land will strive to make any big is-
sue of the recent German submarin-

United States adhered to strick neu-

Misunderstanding over the playing
of "The Victors" by the M. A. C. band,
which has lasted several years, has
been overcome by co-operation ,be-
tween the student councils of M. A. C.
and the University, according to a let-
ter receivEd from W. R. Wright, presi-
dent of the Agricultural college or-
ganization. Wright said In part:
"M. A. C. has no desire to adopt
'The Victors' as a battle song, but it
is easy to understand how such a
feeling might arise in the minds of
the students of the university.
"A song is being written, which, if
satisfactory, will be adopted by the
band and student body for such pur-
poses."
May Not Abandon Song Entirely.
According to the communication,
"The Victors" has been used by the
band in the same spirit that other uni-
versity marches are played; becauseit
has "the punch and spirit." Referring
to future action the letter says: "It
iN hardly possible that our band will
entirely abandon the use of 'The Vic-
tors' as a march, but as far as using
it as a battle song-that is entirely out
of the question."
Wright's letter came as the result
of a.request on the part of the Michi-
gan student council for a considera-
tion of the effect which continued play-
ing by the M. A. C. band woulb have
upon relations between -the schools.
The letter said in part:
Part of Student Connell Note.
"For the past few seasons it has
been the practice of your Varsity band.
to use this selection at all important
athletic events and mass meetings, in-
cluding those events in which our
university was the opponent, and it is
felt by the student body here that,
taking everything into account-the
fact that it has been used at your cele-
brations, snakedances, and events in
which Michigan was not connected-
that this has not been done in the
spirit of keen, friendly rivalry, or in
the spirit in which your band plays
'The Yellow and Blue,' and ours 'The
Alma Mater,' but in an attempt to
adopt Michigan's battle song. is is
not attributed to your student ody
in general, but to the mistak of a
few who have charge of this matter.
"This has been given absolutely no
publicity in order to facilitate the end
in view."
