Dr. Cora j. lBest
Lectures Tonight
"Adventuring" is the subject of a
lectuie to be given at 8 o'cl'ock to-
night in Pattengill auditorium by Dr.
Cora Johnstone Best, widely known
lecturer and international traveller,
for the benefit of the Ann Arbor
Teachers' club. Slides covering ter-
ritory of more than. 600 square miles
and- motion pictures taken 'among
some o the highest mountains of the
world will be used as a supplement
to the talk.
Special government privileges
granted by the secretary of the inte-
rior, including the right to collect
specimens and use government guides
off the 'regular trails have been of
great assistance to Dr. Best in her
long travels. Canadian government
officials have granted similai privi-
leges.
Dr. Best gave a similar lecture here
last year on the subject, "Bringing
the Mountins to Mohamed." Her col-
lection of slides to be used tonight is
altogether new, a large part being
taken from the far-stretched ranges
of National park.
VAN TYNE APROES SON'S
REfUSR TO_ WEAR,,TOQUE
PROFESSOR BACKS FRESHMAN'S
'.ACTION BECAUSE HE WAS
COERCED'
Editor The Michigan Daily:-
Because of the unfortunate inter-
pretation that some of my friends
have placed upon The Daily's com-
ment upon the matter of wearing the
freshman cap, I feel it necessary for
me to explain the facts in regard to
my son in that particular matter.
Tr Had Worn Pot
In the early part of the colleg year
when my son was pledged to a fra-
ternity and when he thought some-
body would be interested in whether
he worea freshman cap or not, he
wore it and later, the toque. When
for reisons which I heartily approve,
he handed in his resignation to the
fraternity, he reasoned that there was
nobodyawho would beconcerned -as
to 'what he did in the matter, and
when the change was made from the
toque to the cap, he began wearing
a hat. When this fact was noticed
by the student discipline committee,
some oficious fellow threatened my
son with violence if he did not wear
his freshman cap. Had a representa-
tive .of. the committee come to him
like a gentleman, and reasoned with
him that his conduct made it difficult
to enforce the traditions with other
freshmen, and that his acquiescence
would help the committee, I am sure
that he would have agreed to fall in
with the custom. Being a boy of
spirit, he naturall.y refused to be co-
erced by threats.
Committee Tries Force
The vigilance committee then at-
tempted in the most vowdy and law-'
less way to force obedience. While I
was away from home and they felt
safe, they came to my house,'
rang the bell, and when my son ca ie
to the door, four or five big rowdies
tried to seize him and drag him out.
He escaped them and ran into the
house and then my wife met them and
told them what she thought of their
oonduct. They threatened her with what
would happen, but she laughed at
them, and when she asked for their
names which they refused to give, she
told them she could identify every
one of them, as, indeed, I am sure she
could. Alarmed at the idea of being
identified, they left at once.
Upon my return, I learned these
facts, and meeting the chairman of
the Stdent council, I told him frankly
my opinion of such conduct. He

asked me to have a talk with my son,
which I arrnged, and whet they met,
a plan was fixed upon which we sup..
posed ended the matter. My son re-

will meet at 3 o'clock today in the 'up-
per reading rpom of the Union to
complete all plans. Sorority repre-
sentatives will meet at 4 o'clock in
Newberry hall,
Will Solicit Faculty
A' complete solicitation of members
of the faculty will be started today

mittee to call on every member per-
sonally to give them. an opportunity
to provide, some happiness for city
kids.
Plans for the tag-day to be held
Thursday are practically completed
according to the committee headed by
Leland Kirkpatrick, '23E. These
plans call for a number of booths on
the campus so that everyone can
have their chance to contribute. All of
these committees are. operating under
the direction of Duke Dunne, '24L,
general chairman, and Jack Kelly,
'24L, assistant chairman.
Plan to Double Attendance
: The plan this year is .to double the
attendance at last year's camp by
providing accommodations .for 300
boys. This number will not begin to
take care of the number of applica-
tions which are already being receiv-
ed, but it is hoped to give the camp
a continuous growth.'
The money which is to be gathered
from the students and faculty will be
used only for the maintenance of the
camp and the transportation of the
boys. Alumni will take care of the
equipping of the camp 'and will pro-
vide the site.

SAYS PAY OFTEN INCREASED (
WITHOUT' MAKING -PROMOTION
Eitor of Michigan Daily:
Your editorial column on Sunday,1
April 23, contained an article to which1
it is necessary officially to take ex-F
ception. The article was headed
"Making the Faculty Pay." The read-
ing thereof raises one of those recent-z
ly rather frequent and very moving
pictures of young editorial shoulders(
bowed with the weight of responsi-r
bilities which the people of the statej
in their constitution and statutes en-
deavored to lay upon the Regents and9
faculty.
Without pausing here to consider
whether if University affairs go wrong,t
the public will demand an accounting
from the editors of The Daily and
their fellow students, or from the Re-'
gents and faculty, may I make'certain
statements which have the advantage
of those appeaiing in your editorial
in that they are blunt rather than in-
ferential, and they are true rather
than misleading."
I will make no reference to your
caption "Making the Faculty Pay,"
beyond observing that it seems to be
intended to suggest an idea of evil
and yet leave an ample hole for 8dl
)rial retirement should its sinister
inference arouse effective opposition.
One-third Get Promotion
There ,are this year 577 faculty mem-
bers, to which fact your statement of1
600 members is fairly close. But ofi
these, 153 are already full professors
and not open to further promotion in
rank; so there are but 424 men instead
of 600 eligible to advancement in
rank. Thus promotions in rank rise
from 1 in 30 to 1 in 21. But promotion
in rank is not the only recognition
which may come; in addition there'
are increases in salaries within the
four grades of professor, associate
professor, assistant professor, and in-
structor. Aside from advancement in'
rank there were 156 increases in sal-
ary in ranks below that of full pro-
fessor, plus' 22 increases in salary
'within the grade of full professor.
Thus for the total faculty roll of
577, 198 persons, or 34 1-3 per cent,
received ;promotion in rank or ad-
vancement in salary; while if consid-
eration be ,limited to faculty members
below the full professorship, 176 per-
sons, or over 44 per cent, received
recognition in the way of promotion
in rank or, increase in salary. With
the exception of one case, 1 believe,
each promotion in rank included an
increase in salary.
Some Reach Limit3
There are usually numerous post-
dttons in anytbusinss, certainly in any
institution, the incumbents of which
have reached the limit of saary which
the position can pay. Where disap-
pointment recurs year after year, as
when funds are limited, disappoint-
ments must recur even to those whose3
efforts deserve better, the. wise 'man
will improve his status by going else-..
where. If deans and department heads
have been too kindly in breaking the
news of- disappointment to men of an-
other class, - the misfits in univer-
sity faculties, - and have not made1
sufflcien.tly plain their lack of pros-

ation of the old system with several
improvements.
