Y., March 9.-A summary of the progress made by the various eastern colleges toward preparing for warfare discloses the fact that Har- vard and Princeton lead in the matter of extensive military preparation, with Yale, Dartmouth, Columbia, and Michigan second in the same direction. Harvard has almost 1,100 men en- rolled in its reserve officers' training corps and other departments organ- ized as aero, naval coast patrol, and naval training divisions. These men will go into a training camp during July and August, and are expected to be ready to take commissions in the reserve army by September. Princeton has 850 men drilling, di- vided into eight companies. An aero branch has been created, which has in prospect the obtaining of aeroplane dummies for instruction in the prac- tical manipulation of the aeroplane. Columbia has not as yet undertaken any actual drilling, and does not ex- pect to unless there be an actual dec- laration of war, but it is collecting en- rollments and organizing, so that in case war is declared all the prelim- inary steps toward the introduction of military training will be complete. Dartmouth, also, refuses to take any hasty step, and is waiting for a dec- laration of war before it begins pre- paring. A battalion was organized at that university last year, but it was not revived this year. Michigan, as we know, has about 150 men drilling, and is waiting the arrival of a regular army officer be- fore that 150 are to become the nucleus of a larger body. Yale has organized a unit for ex- tensive work in military science and those enrolled are being instructed in military matters.

State St. Opposite Huston's Bostonian and Florsheim Shoes (NEW SPRING STYLES) a experiments of the astronomy depart- ment in the work of photographing and enlarging the 3spectra of the stars r This investigation has been one of the chief aims of the department since the completion of the reflecting telescope in May, 1911, and more than 3,700 spectrograms have been made which with few exceptions are suitable for exact measurement. The reflecting telescope, constructed under the supervision of Prof. Wil- liam J. Hussey, director of the as- tronomical observatory, has an aper- ture of 37 1-2 inches and a focal length of 60 feet. The spectrograph is at- tached to the lower end. By means of a special apparatus upon one of the two concrete foundations of the telescope it may be trained on a star and a time clock moves it with a rota- tion which compensates for the earth's rotation so that the star is always in the field of vision. The spectrographic plate is exposed for a period varying from one to eight or nine hours, de- termined by the magnitude of the star. This exposure must be under the di- rect observation of a member of the staff in order to correct any slight neg- lect of the time clock to keep the star always in view. The plate with the impress of the spectrum of the star is then enlarged to about six or eight times its size in the special instrument designed by Prof. Ralph H. Curtiss. Two strong nitrogen lamps enclosed in a square case throw the image of the spectrum through a lens and focal box and im- press it upon a photographic plate at the end. The length of the focal box may be regulated at will 'so that any desired enlargement may be obtained. The exposure of the plate in the en- larging instrument is determined in length of time by an oil pump which slides a box containing the plate be- fore an aperture in the instrument at any regulated speed. Prints are made from these enlargements which- are mounted in series on Bristol board and photographed. Results obtained by this process have brought out characteristics in the spectra of stars that have been hith- erto unknown. The publication of the observatory tat has been issued re- cently contains a number of plates of these photographed spectra which have received the commendation of many noted astronomers in this coun- tr. PLAN FOR ENINEERING TRIP DURINGOVCTION UNDECIDED WHETHER TO TRAVEL WEST OR EAST THIS YEAR Plans for the annual engineering trip during spring vacation are now under way. Those in charge of the trip are undecided whether to go east or west and stated yesterday after- noon that they would be glad to hear from any who are planning to go in regard to his choice. The objections to the eastern trip are that it is doubtful if the party will be admitted to the ship building yards and to the concerns manufac- turing munitions in the east. The cost is also about $25 more than the western trip. Prof. Y. E. Emswiler has written to one of these concerns asking whether or not such a party would be admitted. As yet the letter has not been an- swered. The eastern trip will take i , 3 :: 1 CL 1 3 a C t Pamphlet Distributed hers of State lature Among Legis-.

The western trip will take in To- ledo, Gary, Chicago, Keokuk, and St. .Louis. The cost will be between $50 and $60. This trip is the shorter of the two. This trip is planned primarily for Juniors but all others that wish may go. All mechanical engineers think- ing of going should communicate with Professor Emswiler, all electricals with Prof. H. S. Sheppard, and civils with Mr. G. H. Cissel.

Is opening up its fields in Turkey and the Asiatic countries to single American students between the ages of 21 and 28. At first the work will consist of clerical and office duties, but as soon as the employees prove them- selves capable they will take charge of the organization and development of new agencies. Business experience is unnecessary. Knowledge of a foreign language, while desirable, is not essential, but anyone who accepts a position must learn the native tongue of the land in which he will live. Opportunity for advance is good, especially for engi- neering students or those who have had commercial and accounting courses. All applicants who, after a personal interview with the officers of the con- cern, are accepted, must then spend four months at a training school in New York, where they are instructed in the work of the Standard Oil com- pany by its various directors and managers. A salary of $17.50 per week is paid while in training, and the field posi- tions yield $2,000 per year. Steady work is guaranteed for at least three years, and good service will lengthen this indefinitely. Get your shoes fixed at Paul's Place, 611 E.

The Regents of the University ask appropriations for the following pur- poses: 1. For the building and equipping of a model high school for the prac- tical training of high school teachers in the department of education. 2. For the construction and equip- ping of new hospital buildings. 3. For the construction of an addi- tion to the engineering building to provide adequate accommodations for the teaching of automobile engineer- ing, highway engineering, surveying, and architecture. Regents Prepare Statistics Before giving the reasons for their requests, the Regents have prepared a table showing amounts of money ex- pended by various states on their uni- versities. The table shows that for the past year the University of Michi- gan cost the state $163 per student. This is the lowest amount spent by ay state. Illinois spends $406 per student on its university. In this con- nection the Regents point out that it has been largely through bequests made by alumni and friends of the University that Michigan has been re- lieved from having to depend more on the state legislature for support. In regard to the model high school requested, the Regents state: "Such a school must be provided if the de- partment of education is to meet the demands of its students and of school authorities of the state." The Regents ask $300,000 for the building and equipping of the school, $25,000 for the purchase of a suitable site for the school, and $25,000 yearly for a period of five years for its maintenance. Want New Hospital Buildings For the construction and equipping of new hospital buildings at the Uni- versity the Regents ask for $175,000 yearly for a period of six years. In making this request the Regents point out that the University hospital is used quite as much for the relief ofi the people of the state as for instruct-I ive purposes. A map is included ini the bulletin, showing that in 1916 theE University hospital housed 15,443 pa-] tients, who came from every county in the state.l The Regents finally ask an appro-l priation of $250,000 for an addition or additions to the engineering building. In pointing out the need for an ade-] quate automobile laboratory, it isl stated that the present equipment isE unsatisfactory, and the models ob- tained from various automobile fac-1 tories cannot be used to advantage be-t cause of overcrowded conditions in laboratories not originally designedt for automobile engineering. This pre-E vents experimental work of a highi order from being done. Plan for Surveying Department In asking for accommodations for the surveying department, the Regentsi state: "The engineering building was planned to accommodate about 800 students.

The present attend- ance is more than 1,600. In order to provide additional space for the work of the college, in 1908 the department' of surveying gave up its .rooms in the engineering building and moved into an old frame building erected in 1875 for hospital purposes. The Regents point out that the fire risk is great in this building, thus placing the con- tents in danger of loss, and that its facilities are entirely inadequate for teaching purposes. An addition to the engineering build- ing is also requested for the accom- modation of the courses in architec- ture. This need is caused by increas- ed attendance in the architectural col- lege. PEARY DEMANDS PREPAREDNESS IN PLANES BY UNITED STATES New Haven, Conn., March 9.- Prompt aerial preparedness is the plan advocated by Rear Admiral Rob- ert E. Peary as the best means of furnishing adequate defense for the United States in case of attack. He avers that it is too late to make any appreciable additions to our navy, and that we must resort to a quicker and equally efficient means, the aerial patrol. This means of defense may be made so effective as to become a complete defense for our coast, and permit the use of battleships and cruisers for a distant offensive, he states.
