GYM WORK PLEASES
SCHOOLMASTERS
(By X. If.)
The twelfth annual demonstration
of gymnastic work for the Michigan
Schoolmasters' clubwhich took place
yesterday afternoon in Barbour gym-
nasium was one of the best ever pro-
duced before the club. About 200
freshmen and sophomores took part
in the demonstration and the event
was witnessed 'by about as many
more.
Freshmen and sophomores carried
off equal honors for the meet, the
judges awarding 49 points to the sec-
ond year class and 49 i-2 tp the year-
ling class. The competition was in
gymnastics, marching, folk dancing,
and apparatus work. The winning class
will receive a cup.
A graceful interpretation by the3
esthetic dancing class was especially
well received. The athletic pageant,
which was a dance of a baseball game
and a fencing contest, was also ap-
plauded. The excitement of the after-
noon was afforded by the keen rivalry
between the freshman and sophomore
classes in a handicap relay race,'the
runners having to pass between close-
ly set ten-pins without disturbing
their equilibrium.
The judges were Miss Maley, Miss
Mason, and Miss McEhlinney of De-.
troit.

JAZZ MUSIC WELL RECEIVED
(By H. Hardy fleth)
Much variety - everything fittingly
chosen - perhaps these two com-
ments would suggest the versatile
merits of the Pre-Trip concert pre-
sented by the Glee, and Mandolin club
last night. Which quality may be due
as much to the managers and di-
rectors as to the artists themselves.
Yet the large audience in Hill audi-
torium was kept ever expectant be-
cause of the pleasing abilities display-
ed by the performers. The Glee club,
featuring R. R. Dieterle, '21M, as sol-
oist, scored a triumph in a war song
from "The Cross of Fire" by Bruch.
In two solos Dieterle won individual
honors which will be recognized as
fully abroad as they are on Michigan's
campus. He is a genius o, colorful
tone, a richly interpretative artist.
Glee Club Good
The Glee club was par ularly ade-
quate in "The Lamp in the West," a
descriptive composition by Parker.
and "De Sandman," a negro lullaby
by Protheroe. Both of these numbers
were done without accompaniment,
the softnests and precision of tone
thus being enhanced.
Of course the Jazz orchestra was
particularly satisfactory to the audi-
ence, their "speed" being offset by the
stunts of the individual members who
dodged the spot-light, watched their
watches, and stopped the minute the
whistle blew-as all good fellows
seem to do.
Gives Impersonation
The Mandolin club was most effec-
tive at their second appearance, "An
Bord D'un Ruisseau" by de Boisdef-
fre, while the "Medley" and "Gypsy
Love Song" by the Varsity Stringed
Sextet were received enthusiastically.
Tom Hart, '20, gave humorous imper-
sonations.,
On the whole if anything can breathe;
the spirit of cosmopolitan Michigan it
should be such a program as these
combined musical clubs selected. AndI
"the rest of us" will benefit by the
publicity they establish on the west1
coast.
The fourth game, between Kalama-i
zoo Central and Muskegon, was for-
feited to Muskegon at the end of the
first half as Kalamazoo was declared
to be playing an ineligible ian. The
officials of the M. I. A. A. decided that
in view of the ruling of that organi-
zation which required the forfeiture of
all games in which ineligible man had
played, Kalamazoo should forfeit the
gameto the -lake city.The score at
the end of the half was in Kazoo's
favor, 11 to 7.

SYMPOSIUM DISCUSSES
MICHIGAN'S IDLE LAND
Four speakers composed the sym-
posium dealing with "The 'Peril of
Michigan's Idle Lands," which was
dealt with atdaemeeting of the Acade-
my of Science held last evening..
Prof. Carl 0. Sauer, of the geology
department, reviewed the situation,
pointing out that there 'were 16,000,--
000 ' acres in the upper peninsula, the
aftermath of the lumber orgy, and of
forest fires. He said there should be
no unused lands in the state if there
is a way to avoid such a catastrophe,
and that the answer is to be found
in a broad definite policy.
Prof. Roth Speaks
Prof. Filbert Roth, head of the de-
partment of forestry, dealt graphi-
cally with the devastation of fire. Com-
paring the bankrupt area, which to-
tals nearly two-thirds of the state,
with unnecessary back yard, Profes-
sor Roth showed that the cost of this
unpreparedness has lost the state of
Michigan $18,000,000.
An illustrated lecture by Prof. J.
F. Cox, of the Michigan Agricultural
college, stressed the value of placing
settlers on the good land. The neces-
sity of a thorough soil and economic
survey was advocated by Professor
Cox as one of the first steps to pre-
vent the placing of improper lands in
the hands of the settlers.
Reforestation Needed
"According to the Chief Forester of
Prof. Guy M. Whipple of the Experi-
mental Education department, deliv-
ered the opening address of the Mich-
igan Schoolmasters' club conference
yesterday morning when he spoke on
"How to Attend and Never Forget."
Professor Whipple attribated per-
sons' mentality mnostly to their nat-
ural capacity. He cited instancesof
people having wonderful memories and
said that of course everyone could not
have such memories but by following
certain rules of application the men-
tal capacity with which they were en-
dowed could be increased.
Supt. Frank B. Spaulding of Cleve-
land, O., was the other speaker yes-
terday morning. He talked on "Sig-
.nificant Observations on Experiences
in Helping to Provide Educational O-
portunities for Our American Expedi-
tionary Forces in France and Occu-
pied German Territory."
The classical, mathematical, com-
mercial, and modern language de-
partments held luncheons at moon. All
the departments held conferences dur-
ing the afternoon. A program similar
to that field yesterday will be held
today.$
The speakers of the morning will be
Prof. Tenny Frank, of Johns Hopkins
university on "Labor and Labor Con-
ditions," and Prof. James H. Hosic 'of
the Chicago Normal college on "The
Method of Democracy."
LOUISIANA HOPE OF

An Opera In The
M'aking Similar
To A Work Shop
(By H. Hardy Heth)
Looking behind the scenes of any
production is like stepping into a car-
penter's shop to' watch a structure in-
tricately wrought. You see the mira-
cle being worked, but you also hear
the hammer blows. Just so in the
work-shop of the Union opera, "George
Did It," there is' little glamorous ab-
straction. Instead there are wood-
shavings and fresh paint and dusty
floors, and the only inspiration the act-
ors receive is the sharp word "En-
core," which means that one of them
has to appear-automatically-again.
It is a peculiar mixture of work and
play, the manner in which Sandy Wil-
son, '20, can go through his part as
"Bill Jones" and make the rest of the
cast laugh over and over again. He
will probably be called upon for every
one of his seven encores to "You're
in It" on the opening night of April
5. George Duffield, '21, also, as the
