Had this been done several years ago it may have meant the saving of at least two lives. It looks as though the student coun- cil has become a body which is work- ing for the welfare of the student body, which has become a power that hus- ties and accomplishes, and which means more than a debating society. There are others who might have ini- tiated and carried through the reforms for the river dangers. The Boat club or one of the campus societies could have taken the lead. They have failed, partly because of lack of dispatch, but still they can do much in co-op- erating with the council, the city, and the Edison company. Real student government is exemplified in the men of the council who engineered the Hu- ron safeguard movement through the inertia of civic, corporate and student officials. Women's Organizations Some changes have been made in he Junior Girls' play committee. Helen Champion has been appointed assist- ant to the chairman; Hazel Giddings has been made property manager to fill the vacancy left by Albertine Loomis; and Margaret Long is cos- tume manager. The other members of the committee are Margaret Rey- nolds, chairman; Ruberta Woodworth, publicity manager; and Anita Kelley, business manager. Selected Editorial WAKING UP THE COLLEGES (New York Sun) Colleges are supposed, and they pre- tend, to fit young men for life in this world, not for existence in some uto- pian realm yet undiscovered save in the dreams of idealists. Discounting fairly the charges brought by critics too exclusively practical, the fact re- mains that college education in this country, without surrendering what is praiseworthy in its idealism, can be improved in no other way so much as by being brought into closer touch with business life. Colleges, perceiving the need, have failed to create the opportunity for its satisfaction. The first practical effort comes from outside the faculty room. The National City bank of New York, in placing before Yale, Harvard, Princeton, Columbia and other uni- versities of the East, and half a dozen state universities in the West, a care- fully planned scheme of co-operation, has rendered both to education and to business in this country a service as promising of benefit as it is extraor- dinary - though perfectly simple-in its conception and detailed program of execution. Modern business demands special training. College education, whether justly or not, is increasingly held in esteem as a credential for candidates for places of trust and responsibility. But the college man going into busi- ness loses time, not necessarily in un- learning what he has learned, but in orienting himself to the new environ- ment. The City Bank's plan is devised with the prime purpos of bridging this gap. It calls, in briefe. t sum- mary, for the sending of pick-!d stu- dents, in two summer vacaticas nad for six months of the senior year, to this city, to work and study in the banking offices, the bank to have first call upon the services of the best men after the period of training. Courses in banking, foreign exchanges, credit, economics, commercial geography and modern languages are to be given. It is proposed to begin this summer, with selected students from seven of the most prominent Eastern universities. Both educators and business men will watch the working out of this plan with interest and, on one side or the other, some misgivings. But the colleges have agreed to give credit for the work done toward their degree, and the bank is to provide Instructors to supervise the students' -pogress from the messenger department, check desk and mail desk, through the in- tricacies of collection and bookkeep- ing to the higher felds of "credit and new business," auditing and foreign exchange. The colleges will wake up, the bank will gain, other businesses may profit- ably follow suit; and bright lads at school will be blessed with exceptional opportunities to accelerate the hard proces of "making good." JOHN ANSWERS HRDIKR DEFENDS STAND OF ELIGII:ILITY COMMITTEE IN RULING ON CASE OF ACHI Editor, The Michigan Daily: I was considerably surprised at the contents of Mr. N. S. Hardikar's let- ter appearing in yesterday's Daily. On the surface it seems that Mr. Hardikar should be better informed than to raise he questions he did. Since Mr. H rdikar took Mr. Achi as a specific example, I will do the same. Personally I admire Mr. Achi very much and do not intend this to be considered personal in any way.

He also knew that it was his duty to ascertain his eligibility on his own behalf and on behalf of the Re- vue. Mr. Achi also knew that it is an inflexible rule that ineligible stud- ents are not allowed to participate in student activities. Why did he not go to the manager of the Revue and give him that information so that ade- quate preparations could be made? The managers of the Revue are men all experienced in student activities and are well aware of the temper of the eligibility committee. Why did they not submit their list of partici- pants as soon as the marks were pub- lished, as did the management of the Michigan Union opera. Withdut trying to seem unfair it appears to me that the management willfully let the matter of eligibility slide until the last moment, hoping that the committee would make ex- ceptions for the success of the Revue. Such practices are not attempted by other organizations and I do not think that Mr. Hardikar can honestly accuse Dr. Vibbert or his committee1 of any unfairness. If Mr. Hardikr wishes to criticise, he will find -his subject in Mr. Achi, the other mem- bers of the cast who were declared in- eligible, and the management. Had, they done their duty, the eleventh hour change would not have been necessary. . W. A. P. JOHN, '16.
