Howlett 1 * £L li I*1ALA Those of us who cone from the smaller towns and villages wellremen ber the spirited games of quoits that used to -occup the spre time f the older pnembers of the co unitypr Bt wo would have braved public opinion a year ago by suggesting that the game be introduced into intramural athletics? Although there is very little authentic information on the subject, it is quite prcbable that the whole affair came about in the following manner. During the year previous to the current one, it became a .growing custom, among those in higher administrative positions of the University, to con- gregate after the work of the day was finished, and amuse themselves by pitching a game of horse- shoes. The sport became popular and numerous members of the faculty indulged in its relaxing ex'- ercise. So popular, in fact,.did the pastime become, and so great the eclat that was lent it by the illus- trious persons who were its patrons, that the stu- dent body gradually began to manifest interest also. Clamor for the game became so loud that the in tramural department was finally forced to include it among the sports which it recognized. Thus ,the ancient and honored game of quoits gained its admittance into the aristocracy of college sports. Strange things often happen. Maybe we have inherited the tastes of our grandfathers. Who can say but that when we have grown old, and have returned to our native hamlets, we too shall hobble out to the village green, and while away a Sunday afternoon in a game of horse-shoes with our cronies ? SPENDING FATHER'S MONEY Ever since the beginnihg of civilization,.evidence, has been left to show something of the carefree dis- regard of youths for parental labor and exertion., This has existed in one form or another throughout the ages, until, in the college man of the twentieth century, we find it mnanifested in what might be in- nocently termed an orgy of wild spending. To the tune of synthetic hootch, frost bites, golf suits, and other incidental luxuries, the youth in college ex- periences little difficulty in speedily getting rid of money which may have cost Dad long hours of work and worry to obtain. At the other end of the line, Father lives in a reverie of marvel and wonderment at the cultivated ability of his son or daughter. Neither do the bi- monthly statements he receives, artful and prolific lies often, stretched out by thought and diplomacy to masterpieces of grammar and diction, serve to diminish his parental pride. The Daily is opposed 'to censorship in all such matters. Likewise, there re questions which con- cern us more vitally than that of championing Fa- ther's cause. But besides giving Dad an opportu- nity to better his golf gne, a little less thoughtless spending might have a tgndency to force some Ann Arbor merchants, whose profits are swelled by in- flated prices, to ask a little less for some of their commodities. Publication of SunDodger, the comic monthly magazine at the University of Washington, has been ordered discontinued by the dean of men, on the ground that there is not enough comic material about a college to enable a humorous magazine to sur- vive. Very apparently the dean never went to Michigan._ A Canadian student newspaper has just discov- ered that Judge Ben Lindsey lectured here, and has published a review of the speech, "Why Kids Lie", which he delivered in Hill auditorium. This might remind the old-timer of .the days when the ox cart was used as a means of dommunication. I'milce Telescop e These Is Thesis Days used to be happy and carefree and gay, There were times when I e'en was so bold as to play, But now I travail in the "Libe" every day, Why? - Because I am writing my Thesis. I don't even go to the movie shows now, But I sit atthat desk with a deep-furrowed brow, Gosh! - I surely get into a dreadful pow-wow When I picked a course with a Thesis. sE GRAHAM'S N BOTH STO ES IN lL Y DETROIT UNITED LINES An.

FACTORY HAT STORE 617 PACKARD STREET Telephone 1792' OTHIERSSAY: THE FRESHMAN CAP (Detroit News), "I am attending this college to gain an education, not to follow your tra- ditions," a freshman is said to have replied when summoned before a stu- dent committee to explain why he re- fused to wear the regulation freshman cap which University tradition forces uponthe head of every member of the first-year class. Now it may be difficult for thinking men and women to understand just why this, reverence for tradition runs so high on the college campus; for it does run high-higher at times with some of these young people than does the desire for an education. We have been told by college presidents and commencement orators that education means freedom, that the trained mind ihas more initiative, is less shackled by customary and traditional ways of thinking, that it is only natural for us to look at education as the process, by which we are taught to think for ourselves. And still to the college student a university without its student tradi- tions is like a pork roast without apple sauce, Qr turkey without cranberry. Of course none of this is very serious, Such a practice as fitting out all fresh- men with regulation caps has in the opinion of the majority a good deal to recommend it. It makes a 'distinction which on the campus is a necessary and vital distinction. It inflicts injury on no one. And to the great majority of students, fresh- men and upperclassmen alike, it is highly agreeable to make these dis- tinctions in years of residence on the campus: The freshmanl toque helps freshmen to recognize each other, just as the students of the various upper- classes and different departments are set off from each other by these and similar insignia. It is all a part of the life and atmosphere of the college community..' 'The° point at issue is' scarcely a legal one.

Dear Ich: Your second suggestion sounds more plausible, but we're inclined to believe that the title "Green Temptation" refers to a frosh co-ed. Our O zn-News Bureau A shortage of horseshaes has decidedly ham- pered the progress of the new intramural sport of quoits. In order to obviate this, it has been sug- gested that students should visit farms at night, and wait for the horses to take off their shoes in going to bed, then steal them and run quickly back to the campus. All men from metropolitan cities approve this plan as a wise one. what it brings the individual if he thus insists on being different from his fellow-students. Quite aside from the idle consideration as to whether he can be made to wear this cap by student or faculty ruling at the risk of being sent home if he fails to con- form, the young man would no doubt find it more expedient if ne conformed to the will of the majority. It is better to do in Rome as the Romans do, whether in college or out of it. COLLEGE REPUTATIONS (McGill Daily) The deeds of our lives are as grass;. the wind passes over them -and they. are gone, Such is the destiny of the acts of most of us-f-ading memory, occasional recollection, and then ob- livion. Not even the evil that men do lives after them; for long. Bat it is ludicrous to ask that what a man does during his college career should make him immortal or even cause his memory to be revered for long. He works for temporary reputa- tion, for the value of meeting his fel- lows, for the experience which comes from doing the work of the campus, for the good of a campus which must have that work done. i r uri nnr i i EU n it . i COMING!
