Michigan's first University Alumni day, when all lumni will be given an opportunity to return to Ann Arbor to see the University in operation, has been set for Wednesday, May 2. This announcement followed yester- day's meeting of the committee on Uni- versity Alumni day, appointed after a meeting of the University senate held last Monday. The plan has been tried with success at Yale, Harvard, Colum- bia, Princeton, and other universities. Registrar Arthur G. Hall, who is chairman of the committee, states that arrangements for a program will be made which will include inspection of the University by the alumni, and a gathering where administrative offi- cials; faculty, and alumni may meet to talk over the work of the Univer- sity. It is hoped that this gathering will be of benefit in giving the alumni a better understanding of the present work of the University, and in afford- ing an opportunity for alumni to make constructive suggestions which will prove valuable in the administration or work of the University. An oppor- tunity for reunion will also be afforded on the occasion, although this is not the primary purpose. May 2, the date set, is the day on which the May Festival opens. It is thought that the festival will be an added inducement in drawing alumni to the University. Intercollegiate GOTa SLEEPER TO LEAD COMMITTEE FOR RELIEF STATE ORGANIZATION TO RUN WITH DOLLAR-A-MONTH CLUB Albert E. Sleeper, governor of Mich- igan, will assume the chairmanship of a general state committee which has recently been organized in connection with the Dollar-a-Month club, having for its object the swelling of the funds being collected by a commission for relief work in Belgium. Prof. Francis W. Kelsey is acting as chairman of the local committee. The Dollor-a-Month club is organiz- ed solely to help the Belgian children who have been suffering greatly on account of the war.gContributors pledge themselves to give a dollar each month until peace is declared. This does away with spasmodic re- lief and assures the commission in New York a permanent income. The commission for relief in Bel- gium, with which the Dollar-a-Month club is co-operating, has been the body through which all the relief money from this country and from practic- ally all the other neutral countries has been distributed. It is the only com- mission allowed to work with the con- sent of both warring sides. The province of Liege has been as- signed to the state of Michigan. There are about 12,000 children in it. e Co rdova n s We have just received another shipment of this popular shoe in BLACK and TAN. Special Agency Nettleton shoes Reule Conlin, Fiegel Co.
