C 14 4 A6F tr an a DAY AN ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN FRIDAY, APRIL 7, 1922 Pi p,1 Athletics Dominate April Issue Of Chimes; Articles Are Well Written ORgN LAN ULD 3 ON BEj 'S TO ROWD tu Sure sThani to Athletics dominated the April issue of Chimes, which made its appearance on the campus yesterday. Nearly half the publication is turned over to the doings of the track team. The fron- tispiece is a drawing from life of Walter Simmons, '22E, captain of the team, by James House, Jr., '24L, in his usual splendid style. This is fol- lowed by a wel written, meaty arti- cle by George Reindel, '22. "Shore Twilight," a short poem by Clement A. Smith, '22, sets the pace for the rest of the issue. It is a soft, impressionistic bit of verse which leaves a thought after reading. It is the only bit of poetry in the whole number, but well makes up for any omissions. Article on Cabinet Men The article by Marion Kerr, '23, on "Michigan's Third Cabinet Member" is a historical sketch of Dr. Hubert Work, '84M, the new postmaster gen- eral of the United States. The arti- cle contains several interesting anec- dotes which liven up, the otherwise usual, historical terseness. The third of the Chimes series on contemporary colleges is written by F. Houlton Lauder, on "Illinois." The writer paints a picture of his alma mater which makes it a very desirable place and incidentally offers several suggestions whereby Michigan might profit by example. This piece is ex- ceptionally well worked out and ranks equally with last month's article on "Ohio." Prof. Robert M. Wenley is the sub- ject of an appreciative article by James G. Frey, '22, an article which expresses clearly the feeling of the University toward one of its oldest and best beloved faculty members. The work itself is done in a smooth, easy style which invites reading. Contains Many Features, A very good story by Hardy Hoov- er, '23, adds a great deal to the book. The other piece of fiction, however, though well writen, is not out of the ordinary in subject matter, and is rather disappointing. Two pages of snapshots and car- toons on Michigan at home and abroad, a book review in the usual good style of R. D. S., and two his- torical pieces dealing with track and, the ex-soldiers on the campus com- plete an exceptionally good issue of Chimes. The cover design is the worst feature of the whole work. R. C.M. ince Charles Evans ak, I think that all! the opportunity of id Prof. Thomas C. public speaking de=-1 ard to holding. the ent exercises in the1 ill stadium. Profes- nimized the problemI .tention of the audi- out that in the first ss of the man, secre- president of the re- congress, would be .tamn the attention of "Attention Could Be Held" Professor Trueblood also indicated fact that most of the people came see thesexercises ald that the aker was but a' part of the pro-. im. He conceded that the "person- element" of the speaker would be luced inasmuch as he would be re- ved to a greater distance from his hience. Professor Trueblood believes .t attention could be maintained in stadium with not much more ef- t than that required in Hill audi- lum. Vhen interviewed in this same con- tion, Prof. Richard D. T. Hollister o expressed his approval of the pro- ied plan for the 1922 Commence- nt. He went into the major fund- ental factors of attention mainten- ce and showed how the success of project was not one primarily of ention, but conditions of weather olving rain and heat. Professor llister believes that the attention the audience to the speaker could -haps be' better maintained than in 11 auditorium if the crowd were uped in the circular section of the nds at the west end of the field. Brandt Favors Other Plan earl G. Brandt, '22L, also of. the blic speaking department, said that was not against holding Corn- ncement at Ferry field, but that he .ught a more equitable distribution the tickets would bring about the ired solution. "It is all a matter 'relativity'," he remarked. Brandt, ;gested that a Commen-cement at 1 auditorium where all those really itled to tickets were able to attend uld be more successful than one.at 'ry field where a more or less "free. all" condition would exist. lay K. Immel, assistant professor public speaking, agreed with pro- sors Trueblood and Hollister in ling sure that holding Commence- nt in the Ferry field stadium was a ctical solution of the present Com- ncement difficulty. He said that he not believe that the speaker would so far removed from his audience ler the proposed suggestion that distance would materially interfere ih the effectiveness of the speech. Will Attract Crowds Professor Immel does not think that re would be difficulty in attracting sufficient crowd, since the present nand for tickets at Hill auditorium Commencement seats already far seeds the supply and the novelty of unique idea of the use of ampli- -s would attract still more. The t that Secretary Hughes is to be 'e to speak is a sufficient attraction. itself to swell the demand for tick- ,according to Professor Immel. Lthough rain would be a great ob- cle, amplifiers could be installed in various auditoriums throughout campus to take care of the over- w crowd in case the Commencement I to be held indoors. 'ERARY SOCIETY ACCEPTED AS CAMPUS ORGANIZATION BAND PLEASES I PRE-TRIP CONCERT . x Program Worthy of Professional Note Should Do Credit on Tour To University ROBERT DIETERLI, SOLOIST, GETS GENEROUS APPLAUSE (By Delbert Clark)' Dignity, excellent- playing, strong leadership, and well selected special numbers will make the Varsity band's first concert tour a complete success, if the performance last night in Iill suditorium is to be taken as an in- dication. Finish and poise marked every number, from "The Victors" to the final "The Yellow and Blue." Announced by trumpeters, the en- tire band, attired in full uniform, marched. briskly on the stage, headed by John P. Lawton, '24, drum major, and played "The Victors" to an en- thusiastic audience. Discarding their uniforms, they appeared thereafter in evening dress, as a full-fledged concert band. Humoresque Pleasing Of the enemble selections, Lus-~ comb's Moorish Processional-Humor- esque," was especially noteworthy. It was a strong piece well played. Schu- bert's "Marche Militaire" was played with strength and fire a it deserves. Dvorak's overture, "Bohemia," showed skill in handling and was musical as well. Special mention should be giv- en the work of the basses in this and in fact all of the ensemble work. Their playing was strong and sustain- ed, without noise and ostentation. Bucalossi's "The Hunting Scene" 'is alw~ys popular, and will lose none of its popularity for the presentation given it last night. Hager's "he Boy and the Birds", another descriptive piece,- featured clever woodwind work.. Varied Acts Well Received Burton E. Hyde, '25M, was enthu- siastically received with his big marimbaphone, playing Paderewski's "Minuet in G," Rimsky-Korsakoff's "Chanson Indoue," and Nevin's "The Rosary." Percival Strauss, '22M, ac- compaied him. Robert R. Dieterle's solo work was given its usual generous applause. Dieterle's voice is sweet and exceed- ingly pleasant to listen to. The Midnight Sons' quartet enter- tained with "The Old. Song," "Ken-' tucky Babe," "Roll the Bones," and "A Song by the Fire." The final num- ber was "The Yellow and Blue," sung by the Midnight Sons to the accom- paniment of the band. The entire programn was worthy of a professional organization, and the band on the road will d decided credit to Michigan with the program they gave last.nikht. Considerable credit is 'due for the success of the program to Capt. Wlfrid Wilson, di- rector.. PROF. WILLIAMS TO TALK ON "TE ELECTRIC WAVE" Prof. Neil H. Williams, of the phys- ics department, who is delivering a series of extension lectures by radio from the Detroit News' broadcasting station, will speak tonight on "The SANDBURG PQEMS TYPIFY THE MAN Poet Proves Himself Possessor Delightful Personality to Observer of FREE AND EASY MANNER GIVES INSIGHT OF FINER QUALITIES (By G. D. E.) After Carl Sandburg spoke in Hill: auditorium Wednesday afternoon I went .to Detroit with him. Sandburg the poet is Sandburg the man. To read 'his books is to know him as intimately as- one can know al man from his writing. I felt utterly free to use all my colloquialisms and solecisms, all my quaint and often lurid profanity. We talked, and may the good Jehovah forgive me for for- getting half I heard because of eager- ness to get to other subjects and be- cause of the delight of Sandburg's companionship. itakes Good Companion This and that, the overflooded Hu- ron river, along the railroad tracks,. Ann Arbor, three kinds of flappers (purely a diagnosis), writers, Sher- wod Anderson and Mencken, whom Sandburg admires, Lewisohn, Dreiser, Colum, Vachel Lindsay, Edward Ar- lington, Robinson, novels, poetry and criticism.' "The older I grow the more I feel that no man can say this or that for certain," said Sandburg about criti- cism. He then went on to pass a short and derogatory word about re-j formers. But he was tired and he gave me the proof sheets of his coming book to read while he slept the remaining 20 minutes before we reached Detroit. He did not sleep, however. He only "lazed,"' as he put it. In Detroit he wanted to walk. . "Eight hours' sleep does not rest me as much as an hour's walk and five hours' sleep," he explained. "But my 20 minutes of lazing rested me." Hurries to Engagement Unfortunately we had no time to{ walk. He was to speak at the Scripps branch of the Detroit public library before the librarians of. the city. I reminded him that the Procters were expecting him. Arthur Procter and his wife, Anna, have a little bookstore in Orchestral hall, and are old friends of Sandburg. Procter is a socialist, one of firm and undoubted ideas, but a mild mannered fellow; he is a gentle- man and a civilized person. His book- shop is a gathering place for the young intellectuals of Detroit. "Get Procter on the phone," said Sandburg, "and tell him to come over. to the library, and we'll go to his place afterward. Tell him pot to bring any bombs," he added with a laugh. Sandburg is vastly amused at the popular conception of a socialist. Procter came and we listened again to Sandburg's talk, his poems, and his folk lays. Procter, to get even for the innuendo about the bomb, simulated sleep. Afterward we went to Procter's store, then to the basement, Sand- burg, Procter, Anna Procter, and I.. And there, with rye bread and cheese, with a dill' pickle or so, we held talkfest; there Sandburg sang again - to an audience of three. The "Samuel Hall," so familiar to Ann Arbor ears, came in a fresh and more virile version (To be sure! Sandburg was singing it.) and we ex- WnnininA n PaT waln,. MUCH ENTHUSSANOEIASMUr SHOWN ON EVE OF UNION POOL DRIVE MANY MORE STUDENTS SIGNIFY WILLINGNESS TO HELP WITH "WORS WILL CENTER CAMPAIGN IN NEIGHBORING STATES Additional Lists of Alumni May Still Be Secured at Desk in Union f Many students who had not yet sig- nified their intention of working on the campaign to finish the tJnion swimming pool volunteered to work yesterday and secured lists of alumni at the Union lobby desk. Some of the men were from the states where the drive will be intensively worked: Michigan, New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Illinois, Indiana and Wiscon- sin, but the majority were from other states. They secured lists of alumni in their own communities whom they will see when they are at home dur- ing the spring vacation. May Still Prore Lists Additional lists are still left at the Union, and more volunteers are want- ed to take them. The names will be supplied today, the last before the drive opens, together with subscrip- tion blanks, and lists of University students in the same community. 'A number of donations were receiv- ed yesterday, on the eve of the drive, and these together with the Athletic association's contribution of $1,000, insure the' campaign of a running start. The enthusiasm of Wednesday evening's mass meeting appears to be contagious and all workers are out to finish the pool with the slogan "a contribution from every alumnus."- High Men to Get Privileges Special interest is attached to the Swimming club proposition whereby the Union will give free swimming privileges next year to everyone who brings in $75, and to everyone who se- cures $125 the same privileges will be given for the remainder of the indi- vidual's college life here. Volunteers yesterday indicated that they were all going over the $125 mark. A careful system of reporting the progress during the drive has been worked out. Each solicitor will re- port to his state chairmen next Tues- day and Thursday, who in turn will report to Thoias J. Lynch, '23E, gen- eral chairman of the drive at Ann Ar- bor.' Each dblicltor will mail the con- tributions secured to the Union. Phi Sigma Will Initiate T wenty Beta chapter of Phi Sigma, nation- al honorary biological society, at its meeting held March 21, elected the following 20 men to membership: Prof. Russel Watson and Dr. W. W. Harryman of the faculty, O. H. Gil- lette, '23M, P. H. Garvey, '23M, H. K. Ranson, '23M, P. C. Lloyd, '24M, Harry Shield, '23D, L. F. Rittershoffer, '23D, A. H. Brown, '22D, G. L. Banzhaf, '22, E. G. Wieseruegel, '22, H. W. Put- nam, '23, S. L. Locke, '23, F. L. Mc- Phail, Grad., H. W. Vallteich, Grad., W. B. Beadle, '23Ed, W. M. Randall, Grad., H. H. Fulmer, Grad., Carl Brown, Grad., and M. H. Soule, Grad. The initiation banquet will be held on April 18 at the Union. Dr. A. Franklin Shull, of the zoology depart- ment, will be the principal speaker. LITTLE RESPONSE TO S.C.A. APPEAL Response to the appeal of the Stu- dent Christian association for old clothing for European relief yester- day was not very encouraging, accord- ing to the committee in charge of the work. In spite of efforts to do away with as much trouble as possible on the part of the giver and the co-oper- ation of the University in lending a truck for making collections, the quantity of clothing collected was not up to expectations. The reason for this slump is not ap- parent unless it be that the student body was not thoroughly familiar with the date of the campaign. If any stu- dents still have clothing which they wish to give for the use of suffering students in Europe, packages will still. be highly acceptable at Lane hall.

He is confined to St. Joseph's hospital with thyroid enlarge- "Dry" Leader " PUSSYFOOT" 'JOHNSON ,WHO speaks here Tuesday on problems of India. WUE.IHNSON !WILL "Pussyfoot" Has Just Returned From India Where He Received Great Ovation TO SPEAK IN PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH ON "THE NEW INDIA"; "Pussyfoot"' Johnson, internaltion- ally known advocate of prohibition, will 'speak in Ann Arbor on Tuesday, April 11, at 8 o'clock in the Presby- terian church on the subject of "The New India." Mr. Johnson has just returned to this country from a tour of India. Al- though his cause has met with consid- erable disfavor in the eyes' of many in foreign countries, he was welcomed in India with a ceremony and with re- joicing that showed that the people of' that country welcomed his cause and what it stood for. Receiyes Great Ovation At various cities where he stopped and spoke his person was garlanded with flowers 'and incense was burned about him. Prayers were offered for his success and salvation, not only by the Christian people of .India but by those of other religions as well. It is with this welcome fresh in mind that "Pussyfoot" Johnson comes to Ann Arbor to speak, and the newer spirit inj India which this welcome so plainly1 showed will be the topic of his talk.'a It is because, he is an American that Mr. Johnson lays the larger part of his success in. India. He declares that the people~of India acre looking to Am- erica for salvation, not only financial- ly, in the matter of health, 'sanitation, and culture, but for moral reform and spiritual regeneration. They under- stand that America will aid them as a matter of love and sacrifice and not for profit, Mr. Johnson says. "They' have seen the benefits of prohibition in the United States and partial pro- hibition elsewhere," he states, "and they want prohibtion for their own country." ' Mobbed by Wets in England "Pussyfoot" Johnson sprung into national prominence when on a trip to England as the advocate of the prohibition cause ,at the invitation of the United Kingdom alliance. While speaking in London he was mobbed by a crowd of ,wets, and during the encounter, lost his right eye. The af- fair would undoubtedly have become an occasion for the exchange of diplo- matic notes between the United States government and the government of England but for the fact that "Pussy- foot," although the victim of a terrific tragedy, behaved as a true sportsman and took the affair without resent- ment. This attitude not only averted trouble between the two nations, but it won the hearts of the English for the reformer and did more to forward his cause than any other thing that could have taken place. From that moment he became a figure of inter- national importance. He is lauded by drys and defamed by wets clear around the world. The public is invited to the lecture. Admission is free. WILL GIVE "E" IN COURSES DROPPED AFTER VACATION Courses in the literary college may not be dropped after the spring vaca- tion without the students being rec- orded with an "E" in the course drop- ped. This is in accord with a ruling of the literary college. Students wish- ing to drop courses must secure the approval of the instructor of each course as well as the approval of the dean or registrar and must pay a fee of $1. Applications for the dropping of courses may be secured in the of- DIAMOND sQUAI 16 L EAVS T( ON SOU THERN' WILL OPEN SEASON IN WITH KENTUCKY STA TOMORRI'W BATTING ORDER NA BY COACH RAY F Uteritz Selected for Lead-Off 'l Shackleford in ('lean-Up Position Coach Ray L.
