Since he left the pie-throwing de-
partment of the movies, Roscoe Ar-
buckle has made quite a hit in his two
shows, "The Life of the Party" and
"Brewster's Millions." His latest pro-
duction "The Dollar a Year Man"
which plays at the Arcade beginning
Wednesday is equally as entertaining
as the other two. It has an interest-
ing plot with Fatty in the part of a
bourgeois laundryman who is travel-
ling in high society, and the prince
of a foreign country on his way to
visit the aristocratic colony. They try
to get Fatty out of the way, and they
do, but the prince falls into his hands
and Fatty saves him from shanghai.
After all, this type of 4movie is the

best, for if we can't take most of the
dramatic ones seriously, why not have
pictures that we aren't expected to
consider in that light?
The Majestic features for the latter
half of the week together with its
Philippino tribe the Thomas H. Ince
production, "Lying Lips" with a com-
petent cast. The story deals with a
young woman who is engaged to a
wealthy man but who falls in love
with a virile young Canadian ranch-
man. She cannot persuade herself,
however, to give up a life of ease and
comfort in order to share his life.
When she departs for Europe he fol-
lows, the ship Is wrecked and the two
are left alone upon the floating hulk.
She swears eternal love whichlasts
until a rescue ship is sighted, then she
allows him to hide so that she may ap-
pear to have been alone, and the young
ranchman disappears with the demol-
ished wreckage after she has been re-
moved. Conscience-stricken the girl,
returns to England to marry her weal-{
they fiance (a natural course of
events), but the young and virile
ranchman who is not dead at all, just
living, arrives in time to punish her
and make her repent for having treat-
ed him with such inconsideration.

This week at the Garrick theatre in
Detroit the Bonstelle Company inau-
gurates its twelfth annual season with7
the Selwyn production, "Wedding
Bells." This stock company has a
large roster of excellent players and
its choice of plays for the future is
exceedingly well made.
"Way Down East" commences its
second week at the Shubert-Detroit4
theatre today.
No-Judge Debate

inaugaration of the honor system in
their college, thus fulfilling a long felt
need. Faculty sanction was secured
and the proposed plan which proved
successful in trials, was adopted and
will be extended to all classes in the
college at opportune periods.
Large delegations from each of the
colleges participated in the annual
Swing-out procession and will go out
as alumni with the clase of the cur-
rent semester. Under the banner of
'21 may be found men of varying tastes
and abilities men who are to enter
every walk of life, and men who come
from every corner of the globe but
they are all Michigan men and as they
go out into the world and swell the
number of our ever growing alumni
body, Michigan may well expect great
things of the men who in their under-
graduate days rallied around the stand-
ards of 1921.
ENGLAND REPORTS INCREASE
IN NUMBER OF BANKRUPTCIES
There is a great increase in the
number of bankruptcies which have
been gazetted by the board of trade
during the last three months, 753 hav-
ing been listed against 310 for the cor-
responding period in 1920.+
For years before 1910, the number
of bankruptcies never dropped below
4,000 annually.

Editor The Michigan Daily:
For many years -our college activi-
ties have been evolving from their
period of childhood into maturity.
Once, in the childhood of our sports,
is was considered good form to try to
"rattle" the opposing team. The whole
idea was to win at any cost. It was
childish; we no longer cherish it. We
still like to win, but we know it is
better to play square.
The no-judge debate is another step'
in the development of our maturity. It
is believed by many of us that the
time has come to drop some of the
"rewards and punishments" that move
children to effort, and to offer in their
place the more dignified incentive of
"work for work's sake.' Mbrical stu-
dents study to become good physic-
ians. Engineers study to become good
engineers. Competitive contests, with
judges, in these fields would seem
childish to all of us.
It is a sign of manhood when the
child no longer has to be bribed to
practice a piano lesson or to go to
school. Is there not something to be
said for an attempt to lay the em-
phasis in debate where it belongs and
not on some external stimulus?. De-
bating is not a college "sport." It is
a preparation for the work of later
life. Is it not about time for us to
enter into the practice of debating for
its own sake?
Decision Decides Nothing
A debate decision settles nothing,
not even the question of which is the
better team. There are no fixed stand-
ards as in a football game. It is mere-
ly the opinion, formed under pressure
of three men. More than freguently
this opinion is wrong. Quite often a
judge comes tohthe conclusion, after
reflection, that he should have voted
the other way. Sometimes, though
much less fkequently than of old.,
judges are chosen because of their
known or fancied leanings to one side
of the question or to one school. Al-
most without exception colleges have
a "blacklist" containing men to be
avoided as judges.
All a decision can do is to furnish
a moment of excitement at the close
of the debate. Does that make the
decision worth retaining?
Audiences Interested
I believe that our debates were as
well prepared this year as would have
been the case had we had a decision.
I believe the interest of the audience,
as evidenced by their numbers and by
the questions submitted at the close
of the debate, was as great as last year
when we had decisions. And I am
quite convinced that in adaptation to
the average person in the audience,
as against adaptation to three spe-
cialized judges, the speeches were su-
perior to those of a judged debate. I
am also convinced that in poise, clear
thinking on the platform, and calm
presentation the no-judge debate has
the advantage.
At any rate, I feel that the student
mind is ready for bigger things. I
believe that our interest is not prim-
arily in the decision but in the debate.
