REGARDING OUR ATHLETICS.
Admitting right at the start that any
opinion may be narrow and any action
ill-advised, six-western college news-
papers have decided that Michigan
needs, western competition and that
western competition needs Michigan
and that the obstacles in the way of a
reconciliation are not insurmountable.
Pride doesn't or shouldn't, enter in-
to the argument at all. All through
the Conference schools, among faculty,
students, and alumni, the latch-key is
out for the Wolverines. Last week at
Wisconsin, 2,500 students signed their
names to'petitions asking for Michi-
gan's return. At Minnesota, the de-
mand is as keen, and the same condi-
tion prevails at Illinois.
Admitting that the boycott against
a
like school-boy behavior on both sides,
in which case, Michigan has an oppor-
tunity to take the right course.
If the Conference representatives
are correct in their theories, the real
difficulty lies in the method of control
at Michigan. Of all the schools in the
West, Michigan's board looks the best
from the point of representation. In all
the western schools, the board of re-
gents or the trustees, as the case may
be, is the court of last resort, with
power to over-rule anything. Michigan
hasn't a middle court, which is the
point of difference between the sys-
tem here and Conference schools. A
possible way to effect the necessary
change in the control to make it con-
fer to the Conference rule, would be
to give the university senate the pow-
er of veto, as at Minnesota, a power
which it probably does not desire,
with the representation it now has on
the present governing board in athlet-
ics. In regard to this latter board
as the body of legislation for Michi-
gan's athletics, it is superior in its
balance of representation to the
boards of most of the Conference col-

Chicago meeting last Saturday, the
real issue that is to be fought out,
concerns the contribution made by
the Michigan athletic association to
the support of the training table.
Michigan can look for little sympathy
from the student bodies at these
schools toward the partial support
given the table here.
THE PROBLEM, THEN, FROM
THE STUDENT STAND-POINT IS TO
SOLVE THE TRAINING CONDI-
TIONS AT MICHIGAN IN A WAY
THAT WILL BE AS EFFECTIVE AS

African Hunt Tonight.
The motion pictures of Paul J. Rai-
ney's African Hunt, which will be
shown at theWhitney theater tonight
and tomorrow night, are said to pro-
vide two solid hours of fun, excitement
and education. It is said by every-
body who saw these marvelous pic-
tures in New York, Philadelphia, Bos-
ton, or Chicago, where they were
shown all summer, that they fulfill
their announced mission to a most sat-
isfying degree.

"The Divorce Question."
"The Divorce Question" by William
Anthony McGuire, a powerfully writ-
ten play, taking the stand of the Cath-
olic church's opposition to divorce and
proving conclusively that divorce does
not obtain the conditions sought for
and emphasizes the parents duty to the
children. This strikingly original
play will be seen at the Whitney the-
ater on Thursday, December 5, under
the direction of Rowland and Clifford.

Michigan is, in a sense, unjust, it is
to be 'questioned whether it will ever
be lifted and certainly not in the im-
mediate future. The Conference nev-
er was stronger than it is right now,
and any anticipation of a probable
break-up should not be longer coun-
tenanced. If Michigan is to resume re-
lations with the West, an affiliation
with the Conference will have to be ef-
fected.
The Conference was never more so-
licitous of Michigan's return than at
this moment. Perhaps, the "Big Nine"
representatives have acted like a lot
of school-boys in not officially inviting
Michigan to their last session. But
Michigan could have attended this
meeting, if she had officially announc-
ed a desire to be heard. In view of
the position taken by Michigan last
year in regardto the Conference, it is
as much up to Michigan to ask for a
representation to talk matters over, as
it is for the Conference to invite Mich-
igan to send a representation. It looks
