Dean Jordan Forbids Solicitation
Of Michiganensian Subscriptions
By University Women On Campus

tions. Every
LIO I.
When the edict was issued yester-
day by Dean Myra B.. Jordan that
women students would not be permit-
ted to continue soliciting subscrip-
tions for the Michiganensian on the
campus because of an official rule,
students, solicitors and the 'Ensian
staff wondered and asked themselves
the whys and wherefore of the- matter.
Dean Jordan declared that when the
campaign for the Womens' League was
begun, a rule was made effective that
restricted women solicitors from cam-
paigning any place but in three 'cam-
pus buildings,, the University library,
Barbour gymnasium and University
hall. Had she been consulted, she
stated, she would not have granted
permission to the women to carry on
the campaign.
No Knowledge of Rule
The editors of the 'Ensian, who had
been contemplating a successful sub-
scription drive to wind up their sales
campaign, said that they had no
knowledge of such a rule when they
secured the services of 16 sororities to
take charge of the campus soliciting.
James G. Frey, '22, managing editor
of the year book, said, "It is the inten-
tion of the editors to abide by the
rules of the University, but still I can
see little difference in having women
canvass on the campus as well as in
the buildings. Last week the Univer-
sity of Minnesota year book's business
staff put on a sales campaign conduct-
ed by women, and they sold more than
4,000 copies. Why can't we do it
here?''
Will Obey Edict
Robert F. Wieneke, '22, business
manager of the 'Ensian, gave it as his
opinon that the staff would obey the
ruling, but that it would result in
much confusion and 'fuse a hurried
change in -the campain plans.
"The women were getting well
started on a good cause when they
were suddenly halted by the interven-
tion of the faculty. I cannot see any
reason why, if a girl can talk to a man
In University hall or in the Library,
she cannot talk to him on the cam-
pus."
Edna Groff, '22, president of the
Women's league, declared that she
knew that the rule had been in ef-
fect, but declined to comment on the
present situation until she had con-
sulted with Dean Jordan. *

PRES. BURTON EXPRESSES INTEREST
INl PLAN OFFEEDBYKIRKPATRICK
(By Associated Press)
Washington, March 8.-The United
States government has declined the in-1
vitation to participate in the Genoa,
economic conference. The decision of
the governient was transmitte here
to Senor Ricci, the Italian ambassa-
dor, who, acting for his country and
indirectly for the allied supreme coun-
cil, extended the invitation for Amer-
ican participation.
The position of the American gov-
ernment as set forth in the communi-
cation handed Ambassador Ricci is
that participation by the United States
in any general European economic
conference is impossible at this time,
owing to the complete failure of
European nations, in the view of the.
American government, to adopt prop-
er measures for remedying the rav-
ages of war, and insuring the stabiliza-
tion of economic life.'
It is understood that the American'
government also failed to agree with
the European powers as to the par-
ticipation of Russia, and, in that con-
nection cites the policy of the United
States of non-recognition of the soviet
regime as set forth in the note pf last
March.

EXHIBIT LANDSCAPE DESIGNS
IN ALUMNI MEMORIAL HALL
Plans and drawings of various
phases of landscape designing are on
exhibit in the northwest room on the
first floor of Alumni hall.
The exhibit includes a collection of
plans and elevations of various Ital-
ian gardens, notably that of the Villa
Gambria, drawn by C. Lawson, Amer-
ican fellow in landscape architedture
at the American academy in Rome
from 1915 to 1920.
Plans and drawings submitted in the
1921 competitions' for the fellowship
at Rome, which was awarded to Ralph
Griswold, of Cornell university, are
also on exhibit.
Prof. Hopkins Presides at Meeting
Prof. Louis A. Hopkins, professor of
mathematics and secretary of the Col-
leges of Engineering and Architecture,
president Tuesday afternoon at a
meeting of the Council of Church
Boards of Education at Lane hall. Men
prominent in church education from
various parts of the country were here
and many problems of their work were
discussed.:
article by Dr. J. E. Kirkpatrick, of the
political science department, in the;
March issue of Survey. In this arti-
cle Dr. Kirkpatrick advocates greater
democracy in the administration of
collegs and universities, asserting that
for the most part they are autocratic,
and proposes a plan for administration
by committee, with the t faculty and'
student body having a considerable
voice in executive decisions.
"I do not wish to be considered an
authority on the subject," said the
President, "but I do think that such
an experiment would be most interest-
ing, and I would watch it closely.
"The plan of course has its draw-
backs. Everyone will agree that lead-
ership in any organization of impor-
tance is indispensible, and I an of the
impression that the plan proposed
fails to give sufficient consideration
to that point. It is an indisputable'
fact that under the present system one
man or at least a very few individuals
are popularly held responsible for
everything thathoccurs in connection
with the University, often for occur-
rences of which they have no knowl-
edge. But, nevertheless such an at-
titude, unfair as it may be, makes for
greater executive efficiency.
"The ancient Athenians practiced
pure democracy in their municipal
government, and the same has been
true of the Swiss cantons, where a
comparatively small population and
concentration within narrow geo-
graphical limits makes it practicable.
There is a question whether such a
system could be successful on a large
scale, but I would like to see it tried,
and would watch the effort with keen-
est interest."

rial hall last night. Professor Cross
delivered the lecture entirely in Ital-
ian and described many of the in-
teresting points from the Alps on

given in his talk.
THETA PHI ALPHA AND DELTA
DELTA DELTA TIED FOR LEAD
With the last day of campaigning
here, the Michiganensian still lacks
239 of the 500 subscriptions at which
it aimed. Yesterday's sales netted 121
subscriptions, which, added to Tues-
day's number, gives the grand total to
date of 261. This amount includes
both part paid and paid in full sub-
scriptions.
In spite of many handicaps, the en-
thusiasm of the workers in the cam-
paign does not seem to be diminish-
ed. While the women can no longer
sell on the campus, booths have been
placed in the Library, in University'
hall, and in Barbour gymnasium, at
which teams. are present throughout
the day. Only men will betat the sta-
tions on the campus outside buildings
today.
The high team yesterday was from
the Theta Phi Alpha sorority, whose
total amounted to 25 subscriptions,
while the Chi Omega team turned in
22. *As the tegms now stand Theta
Phi Alpha and Delta Delta Delta are
tied for first place, each having 33
subscriptions. Chi Omega and Kappa
Kappa Gamma each have a total of 30
subscriptions.
The standing of the 16 sororities
participating in the sales campaign
is as follows: Alpha Chi Omega, 23;
Alpha Omicron Pi, 19; Alpha Phi, 0;
Alpha Xi Delta, 12; Chi Omega, 30;
Collegiate Sorosts, 15; Delta Delta

es in locations, the rules for the com-
-petition remain the same as previ-
ously.

Effective chorus work, a "peppy"
quartet, pulsating harmonies by the
Mandolin club, some "mighty good
jazz," and some excellent selections
by Mildred Chase, also soloist, were
the things which made last night's
concert by the Girls' Glee club enjoy-
able for all.
The'club itself, under the, direction
of Nora Crane Hunt, gave four groups
of numbers. From these thee groups,
three numbers, Mary Helen, Brown's
"Nocturne" with violin obligato, Haw-
ley's "Song of the Seasons" and "Good
Night, Good Night Beloved," arranged
by Clifford Page, shone in a class by
themselves.
The finest work on the entire pro-
gram was that of Mildred Chase. She
sings with sympathy and understand-
ing, interpreting the various moods
of "Rain," "A Lullaby" and "Life" as
only one who lives the soggs can.
