NOTICE We hereby give notice that the Pit will cease its operations with this issue. The reasons are two-first, be- caus of the difficulty we experience every morning in finding this column n its entirety. As we take great pleas- ure in reading this column, and tell- ing our friends how good it is, it is discouraging to have to spend two or three hours in locating it. Secondly, our salary it not enough to warrant our not accepting better positions. We were at a loss as to how to pre- sent these reasons, but not wishing to prove unnecessarily mercenary, we chose the above order. Money is farthest from our thoughts. And of course there are other rea- sons. One of them is the following communication: S* * * ' WHY COLUMN CONDUCTORS COM- MIT SUICIDE SEVEN TIMES A DAY Dear Gee: There was a young student who said it's His plan to get all of its credits.

Attention is called to the fact that this regular con- cert in the faculty concerts series will be on Friday instead of Thursday. Tschaikowsky's piano concerto in B flat minor, which has not been played in Ann Arbor for six years, will be the feature of the program. It is one of the most thrilling and satisfying works of the great Russian composer, and the rehearsals which the orches- tra has devoted to its preparation have been so numerous and painstaking that a worthy performance is assured. Two rather elaborate dances on Ital- ian popular themes by a prominent present-day composer, and an exqui- site little Motet of Mozart, played by the strings, complete the program.

"Pygmalion," the latest effort of the gifted Irish-Englishman, is an appeal- ing .romance. It tells in five acts the story of a London flower girl, Eliza Doolittle. As Pygmalion, the sculptor, molded Galatea, so Henry Higgins molds the cockney flower girl to the graces and apparances of a duchess. In doing this he awakens her soul. She falls in love with him and the ap- peal of the play is the story of her romance. Eliza's father, a member of the undeservedly poor, rises to a po- sition in the middle class, which he says he abhors. Having brought these two characters of the streets into a position of prosperity, Mr. Shaw leaves the audience to its own conclusions as to what eventually becomes of them. In appearing in this play, Mrs. Pat- rick Campbell, the celebrated English actress, is making another American tour. "Pygmalion" is one of the re- cent London successes and in playing It in this country, Mrs. Campbell is causing it to have just as great an appeal here. Majestic to Show War Pictures Actual war pictures are to be seen at the Majestic during the three days, January 1 to February 2. These pic- tures are not only authentic, but also official. They show the Germans and Austro-Hungarians preparing for bat- tle, the aeroplane tactics of the Teu- tonic. armies, and an entire battle. The daring of the photographer in taking these pictures is remarkable. Shells whiz by his camera and he is nearly injured, but he never falters. Life in the trenches is shown and barbed wire entanglements charged with electricity are in -clear view of the audience. Pav owa Appears in Detroit Pavlowa will be the principal at- traction at the Lyceum theatre, Detroit, Friday, January 28. This noted dancer and her ballet russe is appearing in conjunction witf the Boston Grand Opera company in Michigan's metrop- olis. Only two performances will be given, one matinee and an evening performance. Many prominent vocal- ists will appear in the opera, and Pav- lowa will conduct her famous Spanish ballet.
