KNOW YOUR UNIVERSITY The University Observatory was founded in 1852. The principal instruments at That time were the ,meridian circle, which was used for the exact deterrpination of star positions, and a twelve inch reflector; then one of the large telescopes of the world. In 49I a reflecting telescope with a 37 1-2 inch aperture was added to the equipment, and used for stellar spectroscopic investigations. This in strument was designed and constructed in the Uni- versity. In t912 the construction of a 24 inch refractor was begun. It has not yet been completed on ac- count of the failure of the glass works to produce the discs of glass required for the objective. CORK AND ALL .. No jeweled loving cup but just an ordinary earthen jdg will be the reward given the victors in this afternoon's gridiron duel between the Varsity and Minnesota. But to Michigan this bit of pot- tery means'more than a vase beat out of the finest gold by the world's greatest artisans. Its recov- ery will signify that Minnesota has been unable to repeat last year's success - her first and only vic- tory in fifteen years. To us 'it is the token which will show that the Yostmen have blocked the lauded "Minnesota shift" after it has reached a season's perfection, and that the men of the Maize and Blue have again given Minnesota-Michigan football scores their traditional emphasis. When the final whistle blows this afternoon Michigan, we. believe, is going to be on top, and headed home with jug, cork, and.contents in hand. OUR BOND WITH MINNESOTA Something more than a lively athletc rivalry gives Michigan and Minnesota a binding common interest, for both institutions have enjoyed the guidance of the same leader - President Marion L. Burton. Alike we have profited by his friendly counsel, his efforts to make education perform a' greater service to the world, and his insight into student. problems. To know President Burton is to like him, and we are getting to know him better every day. Michigan can never lose its friendly feeling for its leader's former home nor forget the part Minnesota has played in the career that brought him to Ann Arbor. :A DEBAT ON SOCIALISM Somebody is lways discovering a pepetual mo- tion machine, lbut none has ever been successful. Today in spite of countless attempts of hopeful in- ventors tbere is no perpetual motion machine i existence on whose performance anyone would trust his life or even risk a quarter. Other men and women are constantly seeking to improve the machines that are already in exist- ence. Most of these mechanisms are imperfect but they work. Those who devote their time to them are making progress towards an ideal. These ma- chines have their faults but we rely on them and are served by them every day. Except as a topic of conversation, socialism has never proved permanently successful. American colonists tried it and failed. Since then like projects in this country have shown themselves to be no more than temporary and no' foreign successes have been substantiated. Like the perpetual motion machine, socialistic economic systems have failed as soon as they lost their original momentum - the enthusiasm of their founders. The frictioh caused by running contrary to the desire of every human being to have something he could call his own and to work best when not un- der discipline, has always been too much for the artificial mechanism of the dreamer. The owner of a perpetual motion machine al- ways contends that it will work as long as nobody has proved that it won't. He feels that a man work- ing on real engines should beready, at a moment's notice, to show why his mechanism is not what be claims. The Intercollegiate Socialist society has challenwed the faculty to debate with it on social- ism. The faculty, though not greatly interested, has suggested confining the debate to a more or less definite phase of socialism - government own- ership of industry, for example. - The faculty, in entering such a debate, would be performing a valuable service. People today seem as gullible before false dreams as they ever were. That fallacies must constantly be denied and shown in their true light is brought out sharply by the repeated success of such get-rich-quick schemes as the one Ponzi nearly "got away with." College students will benefit by a skillful presentation of both sides of the question, for only thus can doubts or prejudices be cleared away in the light of rea- son. NEW SCORN FOR THE FLAPPER' Ideas change with the times, and the advancing years have turned many innovations that were once ridiculed and sneered at into practical, working realities. Co-education, a matter of much con- troversy and debate during the last century, has been tried and found feasible, and even its oppo- nents are now obliged to admit that it is a suc- cess. The old-fashioned idea that women students are not of a serious turn of mind no longer holds, for they have proved themselves capable of coping with men in studies and in business. The recent appointment of a woman to a place of honor in the Hall of Fame, and the achievements of women, too numerous to mention, who have made enviable marks for themselves in various lines of endeavor, are sufficient rebuttal of any arguments as to their competency. The girl who occupies herself solely with frivol- ous thoughts, the flapper, the ambitious vampire, is now in the same class as the man who lounges through his university career, seeing only the joy- ous froth of life, the dance ball, the jazz band, the week-end "party." There is surely no harm in mixing-a little pleasure with one's work, but the prescription will prove ineffective if the ratio is constantly inverted. This kind of girl, who really has no place in a university, according to the mod- ern conception of co-education, is as far out of tune with the times as her male counterpart. T'he Telescope The Boob Across the Hal He slams the door with all his might, He shuffles down the floor, He makes enough commotion For half a score or more. If you're asleep he raps your door To ask the time of day; He must have been a bell-hop Before he came this way. Week in, weels out, from morn till night, You can hear his Oliver click; We've had peace once since he's been here But that time he was sick When you chance to start a letter To Her and wish to dream, Along comes this hyena with - "Now, what do you think of the team?" k DETROIT UNITED LINES In Effect Nov. 2, 1920 Between Detroit, Ann Arbor and Jackson (Eastern Standard Time) Limited and Express cars leave for Detroit at 6:05 a. m., 7:05 a. m., 8:10 a. m., and hourly to 9:10 p. i.
