Students Entertain.
The students of the University o f
Michigan contributed a creditable
share to the entertainment. Morrie
Goldstick recited "Stonewall Jack"
with an accompaniment by Philip
Jay. Selections by the "Bolshevik
Orchestra," composed of Louis Jay ,
director; Philip Jay, tenor, and M .
Goldstick, bass, provoked much mer -
riment. M. Kruger played severa l
college songs on the piano, the crowd
joining in the singing. A humorous
oration by A. Lovin of Ann Arbor
was greatly enjoyed.
A social hour followed the enter-
tainment, which was in turn followed
by a luncheon for the guests. A
dance in the gymnasium, with music
by Finzel's orchestra, concluded a
well-balanced and excellently ar -
ranged program.

. George Dobsevage of New York,
General Secretary of the Jewish Pub -
lication Society, addressed a larg e
gathering at the Shaarey Zedek
Wednesday evening, December 10,
where he spoke under the auspices of
the Young l'eople's Auxiliary.
A splendid speaker, thoroughly
conversant with his subject, Mr.
Dobsevage made an eloquent plea to
his audience to become familiarized
with the greatest literary product of
all time—the Jewish Bible. The
speaker attributed the indifference
with which the average person views
the Bible partly to the unattracive
way in which it ordinarily is printed
and hound:
'AVe issue the finest book in his-
tory in the cheapest binding, in for-
midable, almost undecipherable print,
while the cheapest current fiction is
presented to the public with gilt
edges and three-quarters leather,"
declared Mr. Dobsevage.
Taking the books of the Apocrypha
separately, Mr. Dobsevage discussed
their origin and history and dwelt on
the beauty and romance contained in
that greatest heritage of the Jewish
race.
"Let us cease this seeking for
things that are cheap," declared Mr.
Dobsevage in conclusion. "Let us
escape from the cheesemongers civil-
ization that has the country in its
grip. Let its find our happiness i n
higher, purer, nobler pursuits.

Central Concert Company
Presents Two Youthful
Artists Tuesday Evening
The Central Concert Company is to
present at the next entertainment in
its series Tuesday evening, Decem-
ber 16, two youthful artists who have
never appeared in Detroit.
These two are Miss Barbara Mau-
eel, a petite mezzo-soprano from Al-
sace, and Sascha Jacobsen, a Russian-
American violinist, who made his
New York debut about four years
ago, and since then has gained such
favor in the metropolis that he has
been pronounced by Mr. Henderson
of the Sun "one of the foremost of
the young generation of violinists."
Incidentally it may be interesting to
know that Jacobsen is a pupil of
Franz Kneisel, for many years head
of the Kneisel quartet. and that he
received all his musical education in
this country.
These two artists are to be pre-
sented in Arcadia in an elaborate
stage setting of the drawing room
type with special adornments sug-
gestive of the festival season, and
they are to offer a program that has
large possibilities in the way of deli-
cate distinctiveness.
The evening's encores are to be se-
lected from numbers previously sug-
gested by members of the audience.
As a special feature Miss Maurel and
Mr. Jacobsen are to join in rendi-
tions of Schubert's Serenade and
Goodeve's "Fiddle and 1."
It is announced in Parliamentary j
circles that an order will soon be is-'
sued exempting from registration as
aliens all persons who resided in Po-
land five years previous to the war.
