Don¬ald B. McMillan, arctic traveller andexplorer, who delivered a lanternlecture last night in Mandel hall.“Perhaps some day dirigibles mayreach the pole, but with aeroplanes,this feat is impossible,” he said. Thisis due to the absence of level groundin the arctic regions, without whichlanding and taking off are impossible.Capt. McMillan explained that thedifficulty of landing in arctic terri¬tory makes the employment of aero¬planes practically useless. The mov¬ing pictures of Greenland taken onhis voyage this summer illustrated hispoint. The Country was shown asrocky and uneven. In order even toput together and launch the planesthat his party took with them, a(Continued on page 4)EXPLAIN PRESENTMARKING SYSTEMProvide Special Terms; Com¬pare With Former SystemAccording to a circular sent to allthe members of the faculty by Mr.Walter A. Payne, the University Re¬corder, the marking system which wasintroduced during the summer quar¬ter will continue in effect indefinite¬ly.

Merriam, head of the Universitypolitical science department, declaredlast night hefoi*e a meeting of theAmerican City Managers Associationin Grand Rapids.Prof. Merriam emphasized in addi¬tion the room and need for politicsin cities. He showed that men willnaturally differ on broad questions ofpublic policy, and that politics pro¬vides peaceful ways for settling theirdifferences.“But,” the speaker continued,“politics has small place in adminis¬tration, and when it enters oftendoes irreparable injury. Politics de¬termines the popular will. Adminis¬tration puts that will into action.”Turning in development of thispoint to public diffidence, Prof. Mer¬riam said: “Our recent studies ofnon-voting indicate a dangerous lossof interest in government on the part quiry shows that in many instancesthe cause of this indifference is foundin the cynical attitude towards pre¬sumably corrupt government.Two points in the administrationof city government need further de¬velopment, in Prof. Merriam’s opin¬ion. Assistant city managers and theenlargement of the field of scientificresearch are necessai'y parts of mu¬nicipal equipment.“In city zoning, city planning, andin traffic regulations we have seensome of the advantages of scientifictreatment of urban questions, or insome instances the disadvantages ofunscientific treatment. There aremany other questions, however, re¬quiring both the organization of ex¬isting information, the interchangeof experiences, and the most inten¬sive study of special situations.“No one city is, or perhaps will be,equipped for organized study of thiskind, but it is not impossible that agroup of cities might accomplish thetask. It is to be hoped that in the fu¬ture scientific inquiry will loom stilllarger in the government of Ameri¬cas municipalities,” Make Five-Minule LimitAlthough only five minutes are al-(Continued on page 4)GRAD IS GIVENCASH PRIZE BYSPANISH PAPERAward of a one hundred dollarprize was made to Miss Mabel Stau-dinger, M.

Henceforth we shall have five grades instead of nine. Eachgrade will have a wider range of values; but the border lines betweengrads will be just as definite as ever.The purpose is increased uniformity through increased simplic¬ity. The grade of B will have a wider range; therefore the gradeof B will be more apt to have the same value throughout the Univer¬sity. A grade is but an estimate; and an estimate can not go intohigher mathematics. Its power lies in its simplicity.MARK THEMWE can single out a first-year man without difficulty.

Are theungarnished ones chased through campus by indignant upperclass-women? Are they captured and ridiculed? Are they forced toslide down bannisters at Ida Noyes hall?No. Freshman women roam the campus at will.

Stagg is devoting most of thepractice time in polishing his openattack, especially his aerial shots.Froth Form OppositionTwo teams worked on the develop¬ment of the pass offense which wasused in the Bie Green battle. Withthe freshmen providing the oppositionMarks, Duval and Anderson hurledpass after pass in an effort to getthe plays working to clock-like pre¬cision. In order to prevent furtherpossibilities of injury to the regularswho still feel the effects of Satur¬day’s game only light work was in¬dulged in. Everyone was out in suit,and it was said that it was very prob¬able that Kemwein will be able tostart against the Badgers. McCartywill also be in the opening lineup.Lampe In Tip-Top ShapeLampe’s injured leg has mendednicely and he will be in top conditionto make a bid for All-American hon¬ors in the last football game of hiscollege career. His heady and bril¬liant play in the Penn game has in¬fluenced eastern critics to find a placefor him on their honor elevens.Badgers Have Strong OffenseAlthough Wisconsin’s open playlacks the elaborate finish of theDartmouth attack, Coach Little hasgiven his shifty backfield a numberof formations which should botherthe defensive Maroons considerably.In the Michigan Aggie game the sec¬ond touchdown was scored through42 and 40 yard runs by McAndrewsand Crofoot, the Badgers’ fast-run¬ning pilot. The Harmon brothers alsoshowed strong offensive ability.Kreuz, brother of the Penn fullback,did most of the plunging, but fewyards were gained through this route.As the Maroons and Cardinals areboth tied in the conference standingsthe coaches are urging their men tothe utmost.
