HIMES CONJURES UP A PROBLEM
e Michigan Chimes considers itself with some
e a serious, literary magazine. Well, perhaps
.We should very, much like to grant that it is
serious and literary, but really how can we
it devotes a whole page of cartoon and a third
page of editorial to a mythical "Campus Poli-
." who is admittedly so transparent that he
not develop on so sensitive a medium as a
graphic plate.
ankly we have not met any of the gentlemen of
rpe described by Chimes. If we had, we should
likely have passed them up as unworthy of
than passing attention. We fail to see- why
es should become so wrought up over 'so neg-
e a phenomenon as the Campus Politician.
casionally we have encountered people who
n intense desire to be. among those who make
'heels go 'round. Ordinarily this type of man
s, after all, fairly prevalent) keeps his desires
>ly hidden under an air of nonchalance, but
and then one appears who is so naive that he
to do this. When he does, he stands forth as
de example of fawning sycophancy or rough-
efficiency depending on the nature of theyman.
fawner isn't the man who gets the job. He

cally non-existent at Michigan.
would hesitate to charge Chimes with seri-
devoting so much space to so obvious a myth;
erhaps Chimes isn't serious. There is a sav-
ffect of rhetorical flourish about the graceful
sh "sangre azul" with which the editorial con-

TENNIS COURTS NEEDED
:er our recent hibernating period 8nd with the
t of real spring afternoons nothing is more
cteristic along south State street than the pro-
n of white-clothed tennis enthusiasts bound
erry field. But not even the ardortof the
>afternoon or the joy of~ getting the old
t out for4the first time can overcome the re-
felt by the would-be player as he arrives at
>urts and finds them all in use, or, worse' still,
half of them fit to play on.
is a lamentable fact that there are not more
s courts for Michigan men to practice on, but
e observation will show us that if. all the ex-
courts could be used the situation would not'
bad as at present. Only Wednesday after-
with several men waiting for every workable
, out of a total of twenty-seven courts there'
only twelve that an ordinary player could use.
were not in use simply because they lacked
Common care that would render them useful.
only two, were reserved for Varsity practice,
our more showed just the earmarks of being
courts some day in the future.
e courts themselves are in poor condition and
)o few in number, but that is not the only
>ack. There is a time limit ruling that states
player must be off Ferry field by 6:30 at night.
ng is more discouraging to the men who had
I most of the afternoon for a court than to

find that he must stop playing while the best hours
of the day still remain. Now that the daylight sav-
ing plan has given us another hour of sunlight, it
seems that some arrangement ought to be made
whereby men could be allowed to make use of the
evenings. If the time limit were extended until
darkness almost three good hours would be tacked
on to our present quota of possible practice time.
Let us have better courts, more courts ; but at least
let us have more time - that is cheap.
A VOTE FOR WQMEN
During every year a series of tests of loyalty and
interest in campus activities come to University
women. The women's elections to be held today in
University hall seem one of the most important of
these. New officers in the Women's league, the
Athletic association and the Y. W. C. A. will be
chosen and on this choice will depend much of the
success of these organizations for the coming year.
Next year will be a critical one for the women,
determining as it will the success or failure of a
great project - the women's building. Strong ex-
ecutives are necessary at the head of these three
women's organizations -if the campaign is to suc-
ceed. These leaders will represent us outside the
University and the type of women at Michigan will
be judged by them.
Keeping these facts in mind, every woman should
turn out and vote for the candidate best fitted to
fill the office. A complete campus vote is necessary
if the officers elected are' to be fair representatives
and if they are to receive the support of their con-
stituents during their term of service.'
STUDENT HONESTY
It was custom, in the good old 'days at Michigan,
for certain lunch rooms and restaurants frequented
by students to keep ledgers where patrons who were
without ready funds might sign their names and the
amount of their purchases. The proprietors of the
establishments kept no watch on their custoners,
for they found it safe to leave the matter up to
their debtors' personal pride and honor.
Now, however, should any owner of an eatig es-
tablishment in Ann Arbor attempt to follow this
system, other business men would justly consider
him too much of an Utopian to make a success of
his enterprise. Cash, hard and cold, is .the cry to-j
day, 'and sentiment and honor have been forced into
the background by a newer and less idealistic, but
more practical, generation.' Seldom do the "Lost
and Found" columns contain "Found" items. Good
men and women, as the times go, keep what they
find and expect the same of others. Nobody who
watche students closely will hold that the increase
in campus thefts is due merely to the natural rise
in the number of unscrupulous persons commen-
surate with the doubling of the University popula-
tion in the last decade. There has been a real let-
down of the old views of honesty, with the setting
up of a cold watch-out-for-yourself standard in its
stead. The students who have the backbone and
the brains to see the superiority of the old ideals
over the new way of dealing are the gainers in
self-respect. Can all Michigan be brought to this
view? It's all a matter of habit.
Engineers recently tackled the simple little under- '
taking of moving a Pittsburgh sky-scraper, base-
ments, sidewalks, and all, some 40 feet to make pos-
sible the widening of the street; and they succeeded
in doing to without even disturbing business opera-
tions in the building. May we not soon expect to
find, at the sign of the slide rule and compass, the
notice "Coats and skyscrapers checked here".

As yet we have been unable to verify the report
that at a Philosophy I lecture recently the lecturer
stopped and said, "Will the young gentleman who
is reading The Daily kindly get up and leave the
room?" whereupon 18 students got up and walked
rather sheepishly out.
Dear Noah:
I am 17 years old and will finish high school next
June. If I then come to Michigan and study hard
and try to get something of. an education, do you
think I will succeed? Earnest Dezihr
