The"the" in ''the dansant" means tea ifthe lino man could only 'make an' ac­cent over it, so' consequently ice creamand cake will be served to all, includ­ing even such freshmen as care toimbibe.In honor of Billy Sunday, the fresh­men have instituted several new andstartling features as adjuncts to thisdance. First,. the dance is for fresh­men only. This is absolutely new andhas never been done before in thememory of Archie Roosevelt, Jr. ·Doe.Bratfish, .the chief tire changer forthe new University taxi service, isrumored to have made an unqualifiedstatement that this will undoubtedlyincrease freshman class spirit a hun­dred per cent to have to show. theirtickets before being admitted. "Onthe other hand," said Fat Reber, wellk-nown and prominent ex-freshman,"it will probably decrease attendanceone hundred per cent. But that willbe all right, because then I can come."It is also noised about that severalfreshmen will become acquainted witheach other who have not been before.This is said to be due to the fact thatthe dance will be held in Ida Noyes_______________ I theater, but what that has to do withit is more than Chalmer McWilliamscan explain. "Probably due to themural effect of the surroundings,"said Herman Van Velzer, who hasbeen to Oak Park and who knows.Jean Pickett and Marion Smith havevolunteered to arrange a series of cir­cle and cut-in dances for the purposeof spreading the doctrine of "a wideracquaintance means a bigger taxibill.""You gonua bring a girl, Jim?""Gee, are you supposed to 'Z""Donno; les' don't!'"A'right."Wolverine Runners Thoughtto Have Edge OnMaroonmen· CROWD PACKS MANDELTO HEAR HANAUT ANDSEE FRENCH WAR FILM ' U pperelassmen Win 30, Sophomores25 and Freshmen 20-Geneva Wat­son Stars With lOY: Points MICHIGAN CONSIDEREDFAVORITE OF CINDERPATH IN BIG CONTESTInstructor From' Tri-ColorArmy Lectures On En­durance of France What was considered the best wo­men's gym meet ever held in the'Uni­veraity came off yesterday at 3:30 inIn Ida ' Noyes hall.

FRIDAY, MARCH 15, 1918 ,[ ] MAROONS MEET PURDUEMAROON WAR LETrERS TO DECmE FINAL RANK------- ..J Basketball Quintets to Cluh Tomor-row in Bardett in Last Game ofSeason-Have Former Defeat toRetrieveAs far as actual fighting goes youknow just about as -much as I do.We get the daily bulletin and alsothe Paris editions of the New YorkHerald and the London, Daily Mail, butat present don't come in contact withany of the men actually in the fight­ing, as we are well down in the cen­ter of France. However, at one timeor another, I have talked with a goodmany officers and men of both theEnglish and French armies, and so Ihave an idea of how they look at it.Most of the English officers whom Ihave met seem to feel that the end issomewhere near. Before the Englishretreat a good many English officersseemed to believe that Xmas mightsee the end, as they thought once theParschendaele Ridge was all in Eng­lish hands, that the Boche would haveto give up most if not all of Belgiumand the coast, with all the resultanthandicap to, submarines and air raidsand the moral breakdown that wouldlikely result among the German peo­ple.Some, however, look for a muchlonger struggle, estimates even goingas high as five years. Among theprivates of the British forces there isless said of the strategical featuresof the problem, or of the breakdownof the German morale. To them itis a day b:, day affair and they see analmost unending line of, concrete pill­boxes, practically shell-proof andbristling with machine guns. Alsothey say that anyone who thinks thatthere are none left in the Germanarmy but weaklings and children arecrazy. One Australian said that theBoche always asked for food, firstthing when captured, but that hethought it was merely a bluff and thatall were fat and husky and fierce fight-ers..The French seem to believe it willgo on about a year. longer. To all sol­diers and civilians alike it seems tohave settled down into a sod; of rou­tine, and to have become more or lessthe normal way of life. There is 'onthe surface, at least, little of theheroic and apparently little of thedeep hate that one might expect. Ithas become, as I say, commonplacethrough familiarity, and soldiers goback to the trenches from their per­missionaires like one goes to workMonday morning. I don't knowwhether they really think a year willend it or only try to "kid" themselvesto keep cheered up. I don't believethat the troops along the French frontcome up to those which the Huns havealong the front in Flanders, for fromwhat the ambulance boys and otherstell me most of the prisoners takenaround Verdun, etc., are a sorry lot.Apparently the Germans consider Bel­gium the most vital spot and the Eng­lish the most dangerous opponents.I would like to believe the end issomewhere in sight, but, as always,I think it is a good way off. Neitherin England nor in France is there anyvery marked stringency that I could'. see with regard to any necessities,nor, in fact; even of most luxuries.One can buy almost anything that onewants to and, in most cases, about ascheap, and in some cases, cheaperthan at home. Of course there is ascarcity of some things. The sub­marines are felt, but certainly don'thave it all their own way.

I Meteorology DepartmentDean Miller has received a telegramfrom the Inter-Collegiate Bureau ofIntelligence, of which he is the ad­jutant for Chicago, asking for seven­ty-five men to serve as meteorologistsand the same number of men to serveas physicists. To date, the names ofthe men who have applied for servicein the meteorology branch have beensent to Washington, and a meetingwas held Wednesday for men whowere anxious to' apply as physicists.The men at the meeting were recom­mended by instructors in the depart­ment who thought the men were ca­pable of undertaking the work.Twenty-five men appeared at themeeting, and after hearing the natureof the work were very enthusiasticabout it, but desired a day .or so tomake up their minds about enteringthe service immediately. Dean MUleII'has allowed them until noon today todecide and then the names of thosewho. desire to go will be telegraphedto the bureau at Washington.The call for these 'men came as aresult of an urgent need of men inthese departments. The work is con­nected with the signal corps and' themen will be doing special service inthis department under the supervision'of the heads of the signal corps. Fac.
