SPRING VACATION.
Someone signing himself "Student
Economist" writes to The Daily to sug-
gest that the spring recess be elimi-
nated. He desires to have the 10 days
added onto the summer vacation. The
principal reason assigned is that the
April recess forces idleness upon self-
supporting students; necessitating ex-
tra expense. It seems to be assumed
that the benefits of a breathing spell
in between Christmas and summer are
not sufficient to over-weigh the incon-
veniences mentioned.
Any change. which might better the
position of what our correspondent
calls "the grand army of unemployed,",
as well as that of working students,
should receive consideratiQn. In the.
case at hand, however, the reform ad-
vocated does not appear practicable.
The summer vacation is at present.
over three months long, and 10 days
taken off of the end of the college{
year, at the expense of the spring re-
cess, would not make an appreciable
difference in the kind of weather met-
ed out for June exams. Then, too, the
advantage of a respite from studies,.
which the April holiday affords, is not
negligible. Altogether, the existing.
arrangement seems too satisfactory tp
warrant alteration.;
Now it is that the fellow in the next
room hangs around at all hours tell-
ing about it, and about how much he
spent.
Nobody will be much surprised when
a lot of schedule changes are made to-
morrow.
The hopping continues, but it is of
a different nature.

Olive Vail sang well, tried hard and

"Omar, the Tentmaker," the spec-
tacular Persian love play in which

souled poet and mystic of the elev-
enth century. It is from the pen of
Richard Walton Tully, author of the
"Bird of Paradise," and "The Rose of
the Rancho,"

Local Freshman Scores 2,567 Points in
Strength Test
R. W. Johnson, '18, broke the Michi-
gan "strong man" record at Water-
man gym last week, and incidentally
came within 100 points of the old
world's record. Johnson scored 2,567
points, which is more than 200 points
better than the Michigan mark estab-
lished a few weeks ago.
Roos, the Yale strong man, broke
the world's record, which he holds
himself, two weeks ago, totaling 2,970
points, which is 300 points above the
old mark. Johnson, the Michigan title
holder, has had but little practice, and
is especially weak in the chins and
dips, the Yale man scoring a decided
advantage here. Johnson, however,
bettered the marks set by Roos in the
back lift, the leg lift, and the grips..
Johnson's marks follow: back lift.
