C. A. Branch Sends Largest Single Sum for Use in Russian Prison (Vamp The proceeds from William J. Bry- an's lecture Saturday night which amounted to over $200, will be used as funds for Y. M. C. A. trench work- ers in Europe. This sum is the largest that any individual branch associa- tion has yet contributed. More than $1,000,000 has been rais- ed by John R. Mott, general secre- tary of World's Student Federation, through Young Men's Clristian Asso- ciations of America, for the allevia- tion of suffering in Europe. Most of this money has been used to aid pris- oners in the stockade prisoner camps of Russia. An association secretary is sent to each camp with $1,000 and he sees to the building of a hut or tent for rooms, the organization of the prisoners for educational training and the expenditure of the money for bocks and newspapers. Before this wor! was started prisoners were left for months in these stockades with- out work, recreation or nes from the outside world. - Last November a general appeal was made to associations all over the country for funds for this work. The local association secured Mr. Bryan to lecture here with the understand- ing that the proceeds would be used for this purpose. DIRECTOR PRAISES SPIRIT SHOWN IN MICHIGAN UNIO N Says Student Interest in Organization Excells That at Harvard, Yale and P'ennsy "The Michigan Union appeals to me very much, because of the vitality it gives to student activities," said Mr. Charles P. Morgan, director of the 1916 opera, yesterday afternoon. "I would never have been able to stage an opera here at Michigan in three weeks if it had not been for the con- centration of student interest in the Union. "At Pennsylvania, my Alma Mater, we have the Houston club to corres- pond to the Union, but it does not hold nearly so strong a position. The Yale Commons and the Harvard Un- ion are also like the Union, but they, too, fail to concentrate student atten- tion. Pennsylvania is unfortunate in being located in a city. The Mask and Wig club, which puts on the op- eras at Pennsylvania, has club rooms in Philadelphia, just a few minutes' ride from the university campus, but they are not adequate for complete rehearsals. There I have to call up students individually to get them to come to rehearsals, while here all that is necessary is to post a notice at the Union where everybody can see it. "Here at Michigan the Union comes first and everybody is interested in it, while at Pennsylvania, students con- sider the Houston club of little im- portance. although almost everybody belongs." 4 Allmendinger Mtusic Shop Home of Columbia 120-122 L.

"TAXPAVYER" CliiTICIZES M iE OF ALL NATION REVUE, QUES- TION'tNC TONE OF SPECTACLE Editor, The Michigan Daily:- Now that the Revue des Nations is over, let us take an inventory. Two hundred students engaged in it, with a number of professors. Weeks of interrupted study, nights of rehearsals, expensive outfits, stag- ings and costumes. Then the finals: Two full houses, high-priced seats. Certainly a pile of money. Who gets it? Professional dancers immensely ad- vertised as drawing card The professional dancing on the stage was an abomination, an insult to a respectable audience, a travesty upon civilization. Can we call it a refinement, an ideal, opportunity for our daughters, stu- dents of our highest state institution of learning. to represent the inmatest of a Turkish harem?I The motif of the Revue will admitc of discussion and criticism.f Was it asked?c It is needed? Why were not these things investi-I gated before this detrimental inter-1 ruption to study was entered upon? 1 Is our State University one immense Vanity Fair?I OPERA TRYOUTSUFAIR WRITERS ASSERT ORCHESTRA TO HAVE BEEN CHOSEN PARTLY Editor, The Michigan Daily:- The students of the university have been led to believe that the positions in the Union Opera are awarded on a competitive basis. We feel that the Union has willfully misrepresented the matter as regards the selection of an opera orchestra. A try-out was announced through The Michigan Daily. Several stu-] dents under an impression, reason- able enough, that the personnel of the orchestra was to be determined by this try-out, went through the irk- some ordeal cheerfully enough. The names of the successful candidates were posted on the Union bulletin board under the caption "Union Opera Orchestra 1916." Some, taking these results seriously, appeared at three consecutive rehearsals. No intima- tion was given that they were not to continue to appear at rehearsals. On Saturday evening a new list of names appeared on the same bulletin board under the caption, "Orchestra List." This list, while it excluded several who had been selected at the try-outs, included the names of at least five who had not been at the try-out and a few entirely new ones. It was ob- vious that the positions, which, to all intents and purposes, were to have been occupied by those successful ii, the try-out, were now to be occupied by persons who were never near the try-out, and even by persons whose names did not appear on the first list The modus operandi of this second se- lection is so subtle as to evade analysis. It is known, however, that many in- Made only by The Shredded Wheat Company, Niagara Falls, N. Y, . Patronize Daily Advertizers. ** dividuals were called upon and asked if they desired to play, after the posi- tions were already filled through what one would suppose tc be the legiti- mate way, a competitive try-out on a basis of merit. Now if the manage- ment desires to choose the orchestru on a basis of personal invitation or favoritism let it do so but let it not pretend before the public eye to use a standard of competition on a basis of merit! It is exceedingly unfortun- ate that the Union should, either di- rectly or indirectly, be responsible for such an occurrence as the past week has brought to light, at a time when its integrity is the path by which it is appealing for support to the alumni and students of the university.
