PLAY MAKES HIT ON. ROAD
Audiences at Port iluron, Xt. Clemens
Praise "Pygmalion''
"Pygmalion," the Bernard Shaw
comedy-drama played by the Comedy
club in Ann Arbor recently, had a suc-
cessful appearance in Port Huron
and Mt. Clemens last Firday and' Sat-
urday nights, according to reports of
the directors and newspaper critics.,
A skill equal to that of any profes-
sional company was credited to the
student players by the Port Huron+
Times-Herald. The dramatic critic
then went on to praise the scenic ef-;
Xects, and the smoothness and ease of
the 'actors. After the performance a
dinner and dance was given to thej
cast by the Port Huron Alumni asso-
ciation.,
The reception at Mt. Clemens is said
to have been more enthusiastic, the
audience there throwing itself into the
spirit of the play. The size 'of the
crowd, which nearly filled the new
MacComb theater, augmented the en-,
thusism during the performance.-

ARTMAN STRESSES
Chicago Professor Claims Lack of
Religious Education Caused
World War
SHORT SPEECHES INDICATE
OBJECT OF S. C. A. COURSES
"Religious education, the most
needed of al courses, for the lack bf
which we had the 'World War, for the
lack of which we nowrhave the great-
est trouble between capital and la-
,bor, and communities split up into
segments, and for the lack of which
we may have another great war, is
the development of the motives which
cause us to live as brothers among
our fellows," said Prof. J. M. Artman
of 'the University of Chicago last
night at a banquet held at the First
Presbyterian church under the au-
suices of the Student Christian asso-
ciation.
Leadership Is Inherent
"Everyone has unlimited potential
energies for character and personality
which it is the purpose of religious ed-
ucation to release by supplying the
necessary conditions," said Professor
Artman. "We cannot supply these
energies; they are inherent in the in-
dividual. They must be allowed to
develop in him as fruit develops on
the} tree. Leadership in religious ed-
ucation necessitates your own peru
sonal fitness, and help for others." .
In speaking of the late World war,
Professor Artman said that we had
lost immpasureably 'b'y it. As to some
of the things which religious educa-!
tion should teach, he .said, "it should
show that the only educated man is he
who can successfully direct his life,
and make the proper choices in hu-
man conduct. Religious education
showsthe value of good companion-
ship,, and this companionship is the
result of practice."
1 Offer Weekly Courses'
Following the address by Professor
Artman the five men, who are toof-
fer weekly courses in religious edu-
cation at Lane hall beginning Feb.
28 under the auspices cf the Ann Ar-
bor Bible Chair of,,the Student,Chris-
tian association gave short speeches
as to what their respective courses
were to include. Prof. Brand Blanch-
ard's, course will be on "The Hygiene

HOCKEY TEAM WINS
FROM BADGERS, 5-1

came Wisconsin by a score of 5 to 1'
in the last game of the season last
night in the Coliseum.' The Varsity
team" work stood out at all times
thropghout the game. They carried
the puck down towards the opponent's
goal on successive occasions but miss-
ed the it by inches, due partly to the
stellar guarding of Treadwell, the
Wisconsin goal tender. .
Barkell, Michigan's center, and
Kerr, left wing, starred throughout the
game, while Comb'acker and Ledin
were the outstanding Badger players,
Combacker scoring Wisconsin's only
goal in the third period.

JUNIOR LITS PLAN SPEECHES,
MUSIC FOR SMOKER MARCH 1
Junior lits will meet at' a class
smoker Wednesday, March 1, at -the
Union, it was decided at a meeting of
the social committee yesterday.
The program for the event, as yet
incomplete, will include 'speeches by
members of the faculty and the class.
Music will be furnished 'by a campus
orchestra, and following the talks the,
meeting will be turned into a general
sing and get-together.',
A class meeting has been scheduled
for 4 o'clock tomorrow in the audi-
torium of Newberry hall, at which
time the committees will report, and
the matter of a class dance will be
discussed. Other important business
to be taken up at'the meeting oduses
an urgent appeal from the president
to members of the class to attend the
event.
"There is no sentiment on the Board
in Control of Athletics against rowing
as a Varsity sport," Prof. Ralph W.
Aigler, chairman, stated yesterday,
"but there is a strong sentiment
against the sport when the expenses
it entails are gonsidered. The board
feels that the money which would
have to be spent on rowing could well
be spent to a'much greater advantage
on some of the other sports which are
now established -at the University."
Explains Action -
The statement was made in explan-
ation of the action which the board
took Saturday in refusing to sanction
the establishment of the sport at the

the maintainance of the sport but
colleges spend considerably more for
there are but few that spend less than
this figure. The amount named was
considered by the board to be more of
a minimum figure than an average of
the expenses at the different schools.
There are practically no gate re-
ceipts from the sport, certain univer-
sities charging only' *here they are
able to run trains along the course
and charge spectators a price for pass-
age to watch the race in' progress.
This could not be done here, and the
sport would depend entirely upon the
funds earned from other sources.
Co ts Are Disproportionate
In refusing to establish the water
sport on an equal with others at the
University the board merely consider-
ed that the costs were out of propor-
tion and. that at the present time
could not be afforded.
"There is no reason to think that
the refusal means that the decision Is
final for all time," declared Professor
Aigler. "The question has come up
informally before and will be bound
to arise again. Perhaps there will be
a time there will be more in favor of
adopting- the sport. At. the present
time we could not cpmpete as Mich-
igan wishes to compete, with the best
of facilities and equipment."
