Lloyd Douglas of the First Congregational church phoned all churches in Ann Arbor Friday morning and listed the esti- mates they gave of the numhber of Uni- versity undergraduates at their serv- ices. 47 Per Cent Show Preference The most important of his findings was the discovery that not 15 per cent, as previously published, but 47 per cent of the students expressing church preference at registration act- ually are attending services.' It was also found that the percent- age of church attendance of the en- tire student body was 35 per cent, and that the number of students express- ing preference was 71 per cent df the total enrollment. Of the 7,800 stu- dents now in the University 5,537 ex- pressed church preference, and 2,620 are attending services. Figures Secured' The figures secured for each church are as follows, the first figure repre- senting the number of students ex- pressing preference for that denomina- tion, and the second representing the number actually attending: Baptist,' 388-100; Catholic, 800-50; Christian,' 150-50; COngregational, 785-400; Epis- copalian, 660-400; Lutheran, 275-50; Methodist Episcopal, 1,300-520; Pres- byterian, 1,109-400; Unitarian, 80-50. EMMA GOLDMANGIYC S FIGHT TO BERWTH MIN., (By M. K. E.) Even the jaded follower of amateur theatricals is sometimes rewarded for his past martyrdom by a production that is really worth the time-and, in- cidentally, the two dollars. Such, at any rate, was the case last night at' the second performance of "Red Feather." The Klein-De Koven comic opera is professional in presentation as well as in authorship. Somehow, it lacks most of those amateurish qualities which are the bane of nearly all campus pro- ductions. Trained voices in the cast and chorus are no negligible factors in "putting across" a play for which tuneful music is the chief raison d' etre. Of course, we are not attack- ing Mr. Klein, for a plot would be an indignity to a musical comedy. Excellent Quality in Duet Vocal honors' go to Mrs. Pearl Mc- Geoch-Walcott and Mr. James Hamil- ton who, especially in the duet, "To Call Thee Mine," displayed voices of excellent quality, standing out well despite the too sonorous accompani- ment of a large orchestra. Evelyn F. Rockwell, Reba Griffith- Klumpp, Marion Treleaven, and Rob-' ert R. Dieterle did some excellent solo work. Miss Rockwell, in addition to her pleasing voice, deserves much credit for her partrayal of the chic little milliner. Her faultless stage' presence contributes much to the con- vincingness of her role. Comedian's Part Well Taken Milton H. Fehling as Baron Blumer- storms is every bit the comedian, his handling of this rather difficult part leaving nothing to be desired. Anita Plan Used for Three Years The honor system places on each man the responsibility foi his own E acts, treats him as a gentleman, and demands the response of a gentleman. Since' the engineering collage as a in body voted, in 1916, to adopt this sys- tem of examinations, all classes in that ~n college -automatically come under it, r and must be ready at all times to up- ve hold it. ib- "Cribbing" a Non-Essential Id- Some students, -who insist that n- "cribbing" is as essential to passing a As course as an instructor is to teaching it, might well consider the primary ich idea of an education. Mere learning he does not constitute a complete edu by cation. There must be coupled with it a discipline of character, a echool- he ing in the high ideals which makes a man a man. Honor in his dealings with others, absolute fairness and frankness in all his affairs, make more IT for advancement and success than re- sorting to petty, underhand short cuts. >al Practice honor, play fair, and be '18 square.

(By Associated Press) New York, Dec. 12.-Rather than be separated from Alexander Berkman,. her companion of years, Emma Gold- man announced tonight through her attorney th t she had abandoned her legal fight n the supreme court to prevent her deportation to Soviet Russia with Berkman and some 80 other radicals. Prefers Deportation Miss Goldman, the attorney stated, preferred jail or deportation, "to con- tinued custody on Ellis Island," where she is held by emigration officials. The refusal of the supreme court to delay Berkman's deportation, her attorney said, also had led Miss Gold- man to abandon her fate. He quoted her as saying that "if Berkman must go, I and the rest will go with him." \Later a statement was issued by Miss Goldman in which she, said: Ready to Go "I desire to go as boon as possible to Soviet Russia and' I expect the government to keep its promise to de- port Berkman and myself as well as other Russians within 10 days.

FACULTY CONCERT POSTPONED BECAUSE OF COAL SHORTAGE On account of the fuel situation the complimentary faculty concert an- nounced for Sunday afternoon has been postponed. The new date will be announced later.. This will in no way affect the eon- cert to be given Monday, Dec. 15, at 8 o'clock by the New York Chamber FRA1TERNITY MEN WILL GET. ATHLETES' NAMES ADOPT PLANS TO ACQUAINT HIGH SCHOOL MEN WITH MICHIGAN, "Immediate action is necessary" was' the gist of the message given to the representatives gathered at a meet- ing of the athletic committee of the Interfraternity conference held yes- terday afternoon in the Union. Start Work Now The meeting, which was well at- tended, was called with the intention of impressing on the fraternity repre- sentatives- the necessity of starting, their ndenon the work of gathering names immediately. Under the pres- ent plan all fraternity men are to get in touch with athletes, football men and others, through personal ac- quaintance and by writing coaches and sport writers in their home towns. Will Send Out Literature The men are to write personal let- ters to likely athletes, and hand their, names to the central!"Interfraternity athletic committee, which will, send them University literature. The com- mittee expects that by the first of next semester it will have a mailing list of more than 1,000 names. At yesterday's meeting assess- ments were levied on all fraternities participating in the csmpaign, to de- fray expenses which will be incurref. The next meeting is scheduled for Monday afternoon. Student Volunteers I[eet Tonight Student Volunteers will meet at 7:30 o'clock tonight in Lane hall. Dr. P. H. J. Lerrigo of Boston, will speak.

Hutchins all classes through- out the entire University will close Friday night, Deck 19. Thus the holiday vacation will extend' from Friday evening, Dec. 19, to , Monday evening, Jan. 5. ARTHUR G. HALL,'" Registrar. Ja. *G.HfL Of ensemble dancing there was none, but the little milliners and the Spanish dancers filled this deficit. Acting Good The acting, as a whole, was very fair, but some of the male stars seem to forget that "all the wrld loves a lover"--and so does the girl. Even one who is not an adept at this gen- tle art can detect too conservative an attitude on the part of certain nobles of Roniancia. (Fitting name-that, but they don't live up to it.) Chorus Above Average . The chorus, usually the offendez in campus theatricals; evidenced the re- suits of careful and efficient 'diree- tion. A larger stage might have al- lowed more freedom of motion. The scenery, costumes, and lighting effects constitute a colorful' back- ground for the action of the play. Fu- turistic art will have its say, even in the revival of an old' favorite like "Red Feather." STUDENTS SUPPORT PLAN FOR POOR'S CHRISTMAS FRATERNITIES AND SORORITIES WILL ENTERTAIN CHILDREN Success of the plan to clothe and en- tertain Ann Arbor's poor children through the generosity of fraternities and- sororities was made certain at the general meeting of representatives of houses Friday afternoon in Lane hall A 100 per cent record was tiade by the sororities, every house arranging to outfit and entertain at least one child. Twenty fraternities promised to take at least one-boy, clothe him, and give him a real Christmas party, Most of the dormitories and University houses have already made arrangelments Has More Names Those fraternities and house clubs which did not send representatives to the meeting Friday will' ho assigned a boy if they will get in touch with J. E. Goodwillie, '20E, Saturday morn- ing or Monday at Lane hall.

YOUR PART IN THE SOLUTION OF THE ATHLETIO PROBLEM The first game of the 1919-20 basket- ball schedule of the University will be played at Waterman gymnasium to-. night.. Despite the fact that the riv-. als who have been picked for the first contest are not considered the strong- est opposition in the west, they are in position to test the strength of the Wolverine five. The game this evening offers the students of the University their first opportunity sinc.e the close of the foot- ball season to give evidence of their support ~ of a Michigan Varsity, even in the face of the football disaster. This year's Varsity basketball squad is untried. The men have been work- ing hard and have been. scrimmaging among themselves, yet they have not yet been in an actual game. A great deal depends on the outcome of the first battle of the season.. One of the best ways of being of service to the University is to help the team win. Help it win by giving it your shortage as soon as the fuel supp in the various regions justifies it. Let.Up Jus~fied Director General, Hines said cond tions Din the regions varied greatil and coal still was being shipped fro the east to the west, but that'remov of restrictions might be, shortly just fled.
