A household word in every horne these days and a_ bhfittin g slogan n the matter

decided reality.

rise in price, an~d are earnestly urging all our customer-friends to lace their orders
now before further advances, and while. the choice patterns are to be~ had.

D?.. Graham, inl yesterday's issue,
of The Daily, asks some very perti-
nent questions regarding ethical ad-
vertising. In the first place adver-
tising is absolutely essential to the ex-
istence of this palter. This is hardly
surprising in view of the fact that
practically every other periodical is
in the same boat.
[is second point is that The Daily
should refuse billiard ball advertis-
ing because a state law closes such
places to minors. He contends that
to carry such advertising shows a
lack o[ respect for the law, a lack ot
consideration for minors and a lack
of regardl for other students. who do
not desire to see The Daily's columns
so used.
Pressed to itg log;ical coneluson his
argument is that The IDaily consti-
tute itself the guardian of minors by
teaching them respect for the law,
and keeping them out of billiard halls,
Tlfe first is too big a p~ropositionl for
us to handle and the second we are
inclined to take issue on.
Billiard halls in Ann Arbor are not
the dens of- iniquity that they are giv-
en credit for. The game itself, is es-
sentially that of a'gentleman? It is
the environment that has always
come in for the adverse criticism. In
A.nn Arbor's billiard lparlors we as-
sociate with the samne men that we
meet ini class and at smokers and
dances. Evidently then it is not the
comnpany to which. Graham objects.
All that remnais then is the reguila-
tion of the hall itself. In these
places ,gambling and drinking are
prohibited. There are plenty of
places in towNn where this sort of en-
tertainment can be secured, but we
neither solicit nor; run the advertis-
ing relating to them..
One of the billiard~ halls on State
street is' a part of Michigan's his-
tory. More nien congregate there to
exchange views and get first hantd
information on camnpus questions thani
go there to play pool or billiards. It
is the clearing house for news. Many
a m.anl drops in every day merely to
keep in touch with things. It is an
institution for good and not harmn.
Merely because it is the house of a
game that has been frequently linkec'
with "blind pigs" and gambling, is
that any reason why we shold fool=-
on it with disfavor?
(Daily Maroon)
Four hundred and fifty college foot-
ball teams competed last autumn, ac-
cording to a report issued fromt an au-
thenstic source. We may estimate con-
servatively, then, that approximately
seven thousand undergraduate menl
participated in the gridiron sport.
over half a million men attend (0-
lege; of the nation's total malc popu-{
lation, less than one out of each hun-
red is enrolled in a higher educational
institution. Likewise, we may stae
that nonnore than one out ol one hun-
dred college men plays on the Varsity
eleven. ould the position of sorts
in American colleges be set forth more
clearly than by 'these figures? While
one student is accorded an extreme, in-
temperate eamount of exercise, the ma-
jority of ninety-nine others are re-
ceiving an inadequate degree of phy-
sical culture. We quote Dr. William
T. Foster, the president of Reed Col-
lege, whose "Indictment of Intercolle-
giate :Athletics" in the Atlantic Mont-
ly evoked frenzied but unsuccessful
counter attacks from esteemed, con-
temporary college editors. In the light
of the foregoing statistics, Dr. )Foster'
statement is particularly applicable:
"Intercollegiate athletics provide a
costly, injurious and exessive reghme
for a few students, especially those
who need it least, instead o inepen-
live, healthful aI moderate exercise
for all students, especially those who
need it nmost."

Editor. The Michigan Daily:
The eleventh hour action o the eli-
gibility committee did not in any way
interfere with the (Cosmopoltan pa-
geant, La Revue tes Nations. L~t it is
a remarkable fact that a prdnion"
which has been. supported by t h presi-
dent, the deaus of the various depart-1
ment s, and~ all t h prominient ij gures
of the (ampus, has in some way or
other bien tramped upon by the said
onnnit h e, simply beca as' o its
power. It sem-; to me that the co-
mittee didt not ncrstad tuat Mr.
Ach, '17 L who was reusei permis-
sion to take part in that prd( aton,
was quite eligible for an anips ac-
tivity in tw fe rt seester. iF? is on
probation this semester, which beg;an
on February 14. but the Revue has1
been under way sice last Dcc emer.
Thi; man, that 'r. Achi eu.:avail-1
able to the { osnopotan club in this
work lfor about two months. Dur.
This time he worked very hard tra1
an excellent act. reprP.eseting > !is f, vn
native land H awai. Accord tng c"the
rule, he bcame inligibl on t~n' 14th
of February, butt when was he i';m
ed of tis. ' ron the beginning oft 1 h
second semester until ?March 7, ,the
eligibility committee had licittlhCti t im
to investigate andl inform tie H.CV1n
commrittee about Mrll. Aci. All t= e
members of said tcomittee are r:-
qa ited with the foreign stidents'
advisory h!oard and also the Cos- l
iuoplitan club. The miembers very
well knew that the produtoit v-
~o be held. Then why didn't they
inform one o thenm of the inligiiliy
of the particular student?
It is very difficult to understand tlii;
act ion of the eligibility committee; it
is qtuite clear that it has hurt the feel-
iugs of the foreign students. The for-
eign students at the university have
been striving hard, and the reult of
their struggles for yars is exenpi-'
nied in tue Revue, andl it is at a time
like this tt tey sould receive tiic
