Weber OIL AND WATER-ARMY AND COLLEGE One of the blessings that the S. A. T. C. has given the country is the cer- tainty- that there will never be uni- versal military training in universities and colleges if the universities and colleges have anything to say about it. It has been demonstrated to the satisfaction of army officers that to learn to be a soldier is a job sufficiently onerous to take up all the energy of any man and it has been dem ionstrated to educational author- ties that to get a university education is a job capable of taking all the en- ergy and time of any one man. It ' is impossible for a man to get a gen- seral or professional education and the training of a soldier at the sme time. Under the S. A. T. C. regime both jobs were botched, but the schol- arly job was the more neglected. To say that West Point is an ex- ception to the rule is not correct. At West Point soldiership is the profess- ion that is taught. Soldiering is the be-all and the end-all of the curricul- um, the environment and the tradi- tions, as much as engineering is the complete end of the engineering col- lege. The students at West Point are taughtto be soldiers, and when civil- ian employment took West Point grad- uates it was because some part of the soldier's job fitted into some part of the civilian job. That is not an argu- ment against universal military ser- vice; that must be discussed on other grounds; it is merely a statement of the indisputable fact that college ed- ucation and military training cannot be taken together with justice to eith- er. Nor is it an argument against an hour or two daily of drilling; that might be beneficial from a hygienic point of view, as well as from the viewpoint of national preparedness. But the fact remains that living in barracks, submitting all students, without regard to their training, tem- perament, or physical robustness to the same hours for going to bed and getting up; keeping students in study halls, and forbidding them to study except at designated hours, makes it impossible for students to get what they should from their college cours- es. Further, the physical fatigue of military training makes the mind in-_ capable of thinking and absorbing knowledge as well as when the body is fresh. From the military standplhi' cias-I es and study interfere with in:nsive training. Students have had pract- ally no bayonet drill, there has n. been general boxing or wrestling, only the signal corps has dug trenches there have been no all-day hikes. The student-soldier becomes neither student nor soldier. The wise lad knows that S. A. T. C. stands for Stay At The College now. The war is over in Ann Arbor, and the internal revolution has begun.

AT THE DETROIT OPERA HOUSE At the Detroit Opera House (on the Campus) next week, beginning Sun- day evening, Dec. 1, Oliver Morosco wvi1 present the smart comedy, "Lom- bardi, Ltd.". by Frederic and FannyI Hatton, with the original company! headed by Leo Carrillo. "Lombardi, Ltd." was an all-seascn success in 'Tew York last year and played a long engagement in Chicago this summer and autumn. Detroit is one of the first cities outside of these. two in which the play will be seen. "Lombardi, Ltd," is the story of a male modiste, a temperamental Ital- ian, who thinks that he is in, love with one of his customers, but when disaster threatens him, then he is able to pick out the true friends from the false and to see that it is really his faithful lhtle shop assistant to whom his heart belongs. Mr. Carrillo's performance as Tito Lombardi was hailed as one of the triumphs of character acting of the past season in New York. Also in the company are Grace Valentine as the movie-mad mannequin, Mary Kenne - dy, Warner Baxter, Winifred Bryson, Marion Abbott, Jane Meredith, Hal- lam Bosworth, Ina Rorke Helen Wolcott, Charles Wellesley, and Har- old Russell.

Everything to Eat Hot and Cold Drinks We make our own baked goods. "We must either have universal military training or disarmament," said Dr. Robert T. Crane, in an inter- view yesterday afternoon. "If we are going to exist on the old plan, then military training is necessary. How- ever, an arrangement may be made by the combined nations by which mil- itary training can be partially elim- inated. In any case each country must have an army large enough for a demand for a defensive nucleus and for the prevention of internal insur- rections.'' The plan of having a navy suffi- ciently large to protect this country is impractical for more than one rea- son, Dr. Crane believes. In the first place, it would be impossible for a navy to insure protection to the Unit- ed States on account of the Canadian and Mexican frontiers. England's navy was not successful in furnish- ing protection for the British Isles. If the United States had a powerful navy the other countries would have large armies and this would lead to an intolerable system of militarism. If we are to go back to the old basis, Dr. Crane favors the Swiss plan of military training. "Disarmament can only come* .through a league of nations. Even then it cannot be complete. The real question is, as Dr. H. C. Adams says, not concerning the direct relations be- tween the big nations, but as regards! the political and economic rivalry of these more powerful nations for the control of the little countries. To ob- tain a balance of political and eco- nomic power, will be the aim of the proposed league of nations. This will involve a system so complicated that it is doubtful whether any satisfac- tory solution can be found. If such a plan can be worked out, however, it will eliminate nine wars out of 10. Absolute freedom from wars cannot be hoped for." COMEDY CLUB TO KEEP ACTIVE DURING YEAR 1918-19 The first meeting of the Comedy club for the year 1918-1919 was held yesterday in the Cercle Francais room. The members decided that the club should remain active this year. It was voted that the men who are in khe service should not 1e drop- ped from the rolls of the club, and that no officers be elected for the time being. The next meeting will be called about the first of the year. Tryouts wil not be held until the officers are elected. As few members are in the University at present, it was voted that a play would not be given for some time. Yale University to Exchange Teachers Yale university announced officially the completion of plans for an allied interchange of students and teachers. A pamphlet in English and French will describe the facilities offered foreign students at Yale. The graduate school will provide special courses for foreign students Leading educators of European coun- tries are to be brought more fre- quently to Yale. ! Hardesty, '1 551ies of Pneumonia Fr d D
