nicely with the aid of only one orchestra, the year-
lings have felt the need of doing things up a little
better than their elder brothers and have arranged
for two orchestras to play at the affair which they
are to hold in the near future. The Frosh Frolic
will no doubt be a more elaborate dance than the
Soph Prom, but why should the class of 1925 stop
there ? Perhaps it could obtain the use of Water-
man gymnasium and put on an affair alongside of
which the Junior Hop would be a country ball. Well
and good.
But orchestras and decorations can lend only a
superficial dignity and grandeur, and the more
money that is wasted on them, the more incongru-
ous will. the sight be, when two hundred of last
year's high school boys trip in with their sweet-
hearts shyly on their arms. The name "Frosh
Frolic", an excellent term indeed, denotes the light-
ness of a gambol, an inn6cent merrymaking; and
the Frosh Frolic will remain of that character in
spite of the whole-hearted efforts of aspiring year-
lings to make it worthy of their true digiity.'
There ,are but five more weeks left before, the
freshman class will pass into the ranks'of the more
favored, but until then it would be wise for them
to bear in mind that dignity is not assumed, - it
must arrive, and that the Frosh Frolic will remain
a barn-dance, just as sure ; as freshmen will be

THE DAILY'S BRAIN CHILD
The Sunday Supplement, or "The Michigan
Daily Sunday Magazine," as it is, now caled, only
recently passed the two year mark of its existence.
Starting out in the spring of 1920 as a feature sec-
tion of The .Daily similar to the ones appearin Fg,
weekly in most metropolitan newspapers, it c ,n-
tinued to be issued in this form all last year, tliugh
it gradually came to assume a more literary 'aspect
by the introduction of satirical sketches ,-nd book
and dramatic reviews.
The gradual evolution in policy became more
pronounced at the beginning of this year when-the
size was reduced to that of a magazine, and the
publication, by theintroduction of nore highly spe-
cialized articles, became conppletely literary in
scope, the only one of its ki4d in the country run
in connection with a college newspaper. By nar-
rowing ~its appeal the editors became bent on in-
creasing its value.
Evidence that this ideal has to some extent been
attained is found in a recent article in the Book-
man, a nationally known literary publication, where
this statemnitt appears: "'The Sunday Magazine
of the MiThigan Daily' is the most definite expres-
sion of literary awakening in an American college,
that we know of." The fact that the magazine
duc ing its short span of existence has been of a
quality high enough to exact such criticism, should
clearly indicate that the zeal and ability of its edi-
tors and contributors has brought results of a kind
which pressage a most successful future for their
undertaking..
"Recent warnings issued to freshmen by the
Underclass Advisory committee," began a Daily
editorial yesterday. The committee referred to was
the Underclass Conduct committee, mentioned later
in the editorial - but that does not, alter the sig-
nicarce of the warnings.

MIAKING THE FACULTY PAY
only twenty men out of the Michigan tiac-
ix hundred received promotions to the pro-
ranks, at the meeting of the Regents of.
i of this year, no small number of instruct-

ans that any man has approximately one

ar. Many instructors work and wait for
the hopes of a higher appointment. Some-

:y are led to hope' that "next year" some-

and unjust. No instructor should be al-

jOTHERS SAY:
COLLEGE STANDARDS
(Indianapolis News)
In a speech before the Ohio College
association, Dr. B. R. Buckingham,
director of education research at the
Ohio State University, is reported as
having advocated accommodation of
the entrance and graduation require-
ments of American colleges to the in-
creasing number of students of aver-
age or inferior, intellectual' endow-
ments. It is presumed that he meant
that the colleges should go a little
,farther in this direction. They have
already'gone far, so far that in some
cases a college degree means little
more than that the holder has dwelt
three-or four years in close proximity
to a seat of educational endeavor.
Dr. Buckingham believes that some-
thing must be done to take care of
the great number of students who
enter college every year from accred-
ited high schools, and are then dis-
missed from college because they
have not met the standard required
of candidates for a degree. Appar-
ently he accepts the work of the high
schools as above criticism, and be-
lieves that if the schools are unable
to train young men and women to do
college work, the character of'the col-
lege work should be altered to suit
the schools. This is an amazing re-
versal of the traditional attitude.
Heretofore the'schools have shaped,
their courses to meet college require-
ments.
Already there is a tendency to 'ex-
amine college degrees with some care.
'Professional sch'ools which accept
only college graduates for entrance,
deny their advantages'to the gradu-
ates of some colleges and to gradu-
ates of others who stand low in their
classes. To lower the standard would
be to lower the value of a degree. In
particular it would further degrade
the process of education in public
high sebools and state universities to
the profit of private preparatory
schools and 'universities with a high
standard of scholagship.

That Signifcant Time of Year
Isn't it great to be one of the students,
To enjoy all the fun that's in store,
When you're greeted with smiles by a number of
fellows
Who've never "Hello'd" you before?
When prospective presidents, councilmen, bosses,
Those in the political stews,
Are fastening on the best front they know how to,
And are watching their p's and their q's?
So it's nice in the little old town of Ann Arbor
At this happy time of the year,
For a true altruistic school spirit prevails
When campus elections are near.#
It Is Rumored
That a philanthropic man about Ann Arbor de-
cided to give fifty dollars to the first frosh he en-
countered who was wearing his pot square on the f
top of his head. The philanthropist is still search-
ing.
He's Too Darn Popular
My girl and me don't get along so good,
And yet, we used to could.
For some big sport who's great at golf she's fell,
He sure must be some swell.
And though she claims she's true, in words
she's spoken,
I'm 'fraid of this Tom Logan.

Protest against putting a course in
etiquette is the university curricula
was raised recently by the Columbia
Spectator.
"Truly Columbia graduates would be
the laughing stock of the college
world not to mention the general pub-
lic were he to undergo instruction in
how to handle a tea-cup, introduce at
a formal function, or dress correctly
for afternoon calling," the editorial
states.
At first thought this protest seems
justified. And yet when we consider
the courses in personal hygiene which
are given to all undergraduates; and
when we consider how many of the
incoming freshmen learn a great deal
during the course of the' lectures on
the fundamentals that most of 'us
ought to learn at home, we think there
is still a chance that a course in so-
cial graces might not be amiss.
As for being public laughing stock,
a university can't very well become
that, else all the colleges in the coun-
try had been laughed out of existence
