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. Mfajestic Theater Spencer and Williams supplied some real comedy at the Majestic yesterday. Olive Vail sang well, tried hard and made an impression in spite of obvious difficulties. Ambler Brothers did some daring and unusual equilibrium work, and a playlet and juggling act filled out the program, ( arrick rlheater "Omar, the Tentmaker," the spec- tacular Persian love play in which Guy Bates Post has the leading part, began a week's engagement at the Carrick theater, Detroit, yesterday. The play relates the engrossing love life of Omar Khayyam, the merry- 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," University women, who have regis- tered for the course in stenography anid typewriting, will meet in room 104, economics building, at 4:00 o'clock to- day, to arrange for class and practice hours. * * * Stylus meets at 7:30 o'clock this ev- ening, with Miss Esther Shaw, 520 S.

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.
