We can all form some kind of an es- timate of just what it would have meant in our own cases and from just what blunders we would have been saved during the first few weeks of our freshman careers, if we had pos- sessed a trustworthy and vital source of information beforehand. The nec- essity for some form of hazing arises from this lack.. And while a single copy of The Daily would undoubtedly fail as a sub- stitute for the freshman Bible, a gen- eral familiarity with The Daily for several years will not only bring more men to Michigan, but will bring them already fairly started on the road to becoming Michigan men. The experiment involves added re- sponsibility for The Daily and for the student body which is at once its au- thor and subject matter. Student op- inion and student journalism which appear in the paper are now being observed with interest by thousands of youngsters who may later become identified with the University. The at- titude of criticism without concentra- tion assumed with complacence by some students now becomes more than ever out of place. If a story in The Daily is inaccurate or dull, it is a mat- ter of import to every student, and in- sofar as he done nothing to make the st@ry otherwise by active effort or constructive criticism, it is his fault. The Daily is trying to represent the University and it needs support from all of the University to be truly and worthily representative. "Branding Broadway" is the name of a new photoplay. It is about time so some of the hide was burned off that thoroughfare if what some of the gay young blades returning from their va- cations say is true. "Why," queries the frosh, "accuse us of breaking traditions? None of us sit on the senior benches these days." Proving that the thermometed is mightier than the paddle. The same word, but the meaning is different, when the ex-S. A. T. C. speak of their unies. They don't come that way in the army. Victor Berger says he is fighting for liberty of speech. He may now tell that to the warden. About all he can ever say with that gentleman's con- sent is: "I beg your pardon, Mr. President." Spruce up, girls, the S. A. T. C. checks are in the mail, and there are still roses for sale. FOR LIBERTY The following casualties are re- ported today by the commanding gen- eral of the American Expeditionary Forces: Killed in action, 52; died of wounds, 33; died from accident and. other causes, 2; died from aero- plane accident, 1; wounded slightly, 5; missing in action, 9. Total, 244. NO PROBATION LIST MADE OUT UNTIL EXAMS ARE OVER No students have been put on pro- bation this year. After examinations the probation list will be made out, but up to the present time no delin- quent students have been notified. The reason for this is not the unusual superiority of the students this year but the fact that matters of greater importance have so occupied he time of Registrar Arthur B. Hall that he has been forced to neglect the proba- tioners. D. A. R. to Hold Annual Luncheon The annual luncheon of the Sarah Caswell Angell chapter of the D. A. R. will be held at 12:30, Jan. 16, in Lane hall. All members wishing to attend please notify Mrs. Chas. E. Parmer- lee, 1015 Church street, before Jan- uary 14. A student social will be held at 8 o'clock this evening in the social room of the Congregational church. All stu- dents are invited to attend.' t W1omen All sophomore girls who have not paid their freshman spread tax of $1.00 are requested to do so immed- iately as the treasurer must audit her accounts. The money will be received at Dean Myra B. Jordan's office in Barbour gymnasium. A list of those who have not paid the tax will be post- ed shortly in the registrar's office. The fancy dress party to be given by the Women's league has been postpon- ed from January 18 to January 24 on account of the Bonne concert to be given on January 18. The regular monthly social and bus- iness meeting of the Cosmopolitan club will be held Thursday, January 16, at Newberry residence. Miss Grace Elliott and Dean Myra B. Jordan will be the hostesses at this meeting. During the Christmas holidays a party was given for the girls who spent Christmas in Ann Arbor at the home of Mrs. Harry Bacher, 516 East Madison street. Miss Martha Hills has been made social director of Kent house dormi- tory. An entirely new organization has been established at this dormi- tory, with Anna May Yorks, '20, as house head.

Issue Editor-Ruth Dailey OUT TO WIN IN T'HE COURT The basketball season proper will >en in the near future and Michigan ill then have the chance to wipe last ar's record from the boards. And [th present prospects it looks as ough the quintet will be able to do the indoor game what Michigan's ams did in baseball and track last ring. The champions of the Con- rence in these two sports and unde- ated in football, Michigan has only gain the basketball honors to re- me her old place as leader of the g Ten. The strongest teams in the Confer- ce are on Michigan's schedule, but th more than a month's practice d six preliminary games behind it, e team will meet the best with bet- r than even chances of coming rough victorious. The team's record last year would vs been disgraceful if it had not en that it was the first year, that chigan had played intercollegiate sketball. ; Probably for this reason e attendance at the games was not hat it should have been. A team to win needs backing, and it ust be visible backing with the ands full at every game. Those who tnessed several of last year's de- its and became disgusted must for- t about them and be on hand at is year's contests confident of vic- y. And they should let the team ow by real Michigan cheers that ey expect it to win.
