The university student, seeking new and little- travelled lines of endeavor, cannot fail to observe the opportunity that scenario writing offers. But he is little better fitted to raise the quality of mo- tion pictures than are their present exploiters. The university, with its avowed purpose of educating men and women to better the condition of society, seems well equipped for the task of improving present standards in the movies through a special course of instruction for the ambitious student. Can Michigan afford to ignore this? KNOWING PEOPLE How many people on the campus do you know well? With how many others do you enjoy a pass- ing acquaintance? Do you walk to and fr i classes without once saying "Hello"' to a fellow- student? Or, are you kept busy greeting passersby' as you hurry along from one building to another? Are the faces familiar to you those of a strictly lim- ited group of your ,own classmates, or do you know members of the various organizations in the Uni- versity? Are there no professors you feel that you know well enough to do more than distantly nod to outside the classroom? And why the fusillade of questions? you may ask. They are prompted by recollection of the views of a friend, a former student, who used method in cul- tivating friends and practicing cordiality. This student had attended college elsewhere for Iwo years before coming here. After a few months he began checking off names in the 'student directory. A semester later he repeated the process. Ques- tioning revealed the information that here was a person who measured the success of his life in the' University by the readiness with which he made friends. We were struck by the novelty of the idea. Many a time have we heard speakers whose experiences and wisdom we respected, nominate the University campus as the place where a student forms the associations which are his alliances for life. We forget a large per cent of the acquaintances we had in high school and earlier days, but the friends -of our University period are forever cherished .-Ohio" State Lantern.

' Rhubin. Yes, Rhubin, the last census brought out the as- tqunding fact that the population in the larger cities is much denser than' that in the rural districts. Below we reprint an extract from Izee Manor- dog's latest "best seller," "Diana's Sole Lover." It was one of those wonderful summer nights in spring when the winter winds caused even the fall leaves to whisper among themselves in anticipa- tion. The orange moon hung like a huge tub of dripping honey against the blue denim of the star- speckled heavens. Yet she seemed enshrouded by an undefinable aura of heart heaviness. She hesi- tated and then told me, quietly and simply, a little tale that sent ripples of melancholia across the tender surface of my soul, II : "I met him," she began, in her dulcet trilling tones, "in the shadow of the old corset factory, where the river flows in weird, weary wickedness, with weeping willows sobbing woeful 'wimperings to the breeze. I knew, as only a woman's intuition can tell these things, that we were meant for soul mates - that we had been',destined by fate to know and love each other." III . "But you know my family. They would have. none of him because-"" She broke pff sharply, great tears welled in those fathomless, limpid pools of her luminous, lustrous orbs-her cherry-red lips quivered like an aspen kissed by a gentle breeze- her delicate nose trembled like a startled hart stalked to its nesting place by the hunter. "Yes," she continued in a dull monotone, "they objected to him because-because he 'wore a rubber collar. And so I have locked my sorrow in my heart, but always there is imperishably stamped on my heart a vision of him as he stood that night in the dark shadow of the corset factory-his powerful head thrown back, his magnetic eyes half closed and his rubber collar glistening in the moonlight.

Asked At Random (Any member of the University, pro-! fessor or student, who has a subject 'he wishes discussed in this column,' may mnail it to the "Asked at Random" reporter care of The Daily.) Today's question: "Do you tin it wise to combine the Student Af fairs committee and the Board of Control of Student Athleties in one University eligibility committee" Mr. Cahow, instructor in mathemat- ics: "It would be well if these com- mittees were combined, for it would make the scholastic standard the same for both the athlete and the other stu- dent, thus putting them on a parity. Great care should be used in doing this, in order that by combining the two, the standards of eligibility neith- er would be lowered." Bruce Millar, '20, managing editor of the Michiganensian: "I do not think these committees should be combined, for the work of the athlete is so entirely different than that of students in other fields. For instance, graduate students may do work on publications, while they are barred from athletics. The present system is satisfactory, if changed complica- tions would arise; therefore I think it is better to 'let well enough alone'." Clayton S. Shoemaker, '20, vice president of the Michigan Union: "This seems like a practical1plan to me. Of course the details would have to be worked out, but in the end it would be worth while, for .there are too many different committees in the University now." Hugh Wilson, '22, Varsity 'football man: "In my opinion this idea wouldn't work out very well. In the first place, it would be too much for one committee to handle. In the see- and place, the members of each com- mittee are interested chiefly in their own work. I do thnk, however, that the standards of each should be made the same."
