DRAMATIC CRITIC
LECTURES TODAY
Director of "North Carolna Play-
makers" Has Attracted Wide
Attention Nationally
TO TALK ON "CONTEMPORARY
DRAMA" THIS AFTERNOON
"Prof. Frederick H. Koch is far
more important to the future of the
American stage than is elaso or
Arthur Hopkins." The above is quot-
ed from the Septembr, 1921, issue of
Shadowland and com es from the pen
of Walter Pritchard Eaton, well known
dramatic critic.
University folk will hear Professor
Koch at 4:15 o'clock this afternoon in
Natural Science auditorium, when he
will talk on "Contemporary Drama."
Professor Koch has had some experi-
ence as an actor, and has worked
with the little theater movement in
the United States. His most notable
success has been achieved at the Uni-
versityy of North Carolina, where, he
is professor of dramatic literature.
Under his tutelage the "Carolina
Playmakers," a college dramatic or-
ganization, has been attracting wide
attention. This group of people
writes, acts, and produces the plays
which are given under Professor
Koch's direction.
In the July, 1921, issue, of -The
Drama Walter Pritchard Eaton fur-
ther states, "Frederick Koch of North
Carolina is doing a wonderful work.
He is teaching young people to write
their own plays, about their own peo-
ple and lives, stage them, costume
them, act them - and then take them
right into the heart of the country
they are concerned .with, and make the
people listen to them and enjoy them.
I would rejoice snore over the one
little play that is written and acted
by men and women in their own en-
vironment, before their own neigh-
bors, provided it is honestly written
and earnestly acted, than I would over
the ninety and nine written by G. B.
Shaw, Augustus Thomas, G. M. Cohan
and William Shakespeare, and sent
out from New York."

GIES STHRN LEA FOR
IDEALS IN MODERN4 LIFE
McLAUGHLI14 ADDRESSES NEW
INITIATES AT PHI BETA KAP-
PA BANQUET
A strong plea, for the maintenance
of national and individual ideals in the
face of a period of general doubt and
pessimism was made by Prof. Andrew
:. McLaughlin, head of the history de-
partment of Chicago university, in his
address at the banquet given last night
tt the Union in honor of the65 mem-
bers ofethis year's senior literary class
initiated into Phi Beta Kappa,honor-
ary scholastie society.
"The only one who can really be-
come pessimistic is the one who gives
up," he declared after presenting evi-
dence of the prevailing pessimism.
This evidence he found in the general
questioning of the efficiency of democ-
racy, in the unheroic character of mod-
ern literature and the cynical attitude
of literary criticism, and in the status
of our educational system.
"Public education is the nmost mon-
umental Job our country ever under-
took, and yet our colleges are filled
with thousands who are not there to
be educated, to the detriment of those
'who have a more serious purpose," he
said.
Citing the Chicago city government
as one example of the ineffectiveness
of our institutions, he declared that
the unofficial citizen who stands by the
right and is willing at all times to be
of service to his community is the
only effective agent for a successful
democracy.

He scored the politial parties for
their attitude on international rela-
tions, and said that they are responsi-
ble for pessimism because they rob
us of belief in -ourselves. "America
'has lived on idealism," he said. "Do
not let any man steal your appreciation

NET TEAM OFF FOR
Merkel, Reindel, Rorich and Sanchez
Make Up Wolverine Squad
at Chicago
WILL PLAY GOPHERS MONDAY
AND WISCONSIN. ON TUESDAY
Miciigan's tennis team left yester-
day afternoon for Chicago, where it
will take part in the annual Western
Conference Intercollegiate Tennis
tournament in both singles and dqu-
bles. The same four men who repre-
sented Michigan in the East wer se-
lected to go to Chicago' They are
Capt. Charles Merkel, George Rein-
del, Jr., Johann Rorich, and Frederico
Sanchez.
Play in the tournament commences
at 10 o'clock this morning and will run
thropgh Thursday, Friday, and Satur-
day. Winners in both singles and
doubles will be decided. The tourna-
ment is an individual affair and has
no bearing on the Conference tennis
team champion. Such a title is decid-
ed at all must be awarded on the bas-
is of dual team matches.
Several men in the Conference have
a good chance to cop the singles ti-
tle. Norton of Minnesota, Gotfredsen
and Tredwell of Wisconsin, Wirthwein
of Ohio State, Merkel if Michigan, and
others have about equal chances for
the honor. In' the donbles, Michigan
will have two strong teams. Reindel
and Merkel,and Rorich and Sanchez
should make most any other Confer-
ence team step. Tredwell and Got-
fredsen of Wisconsin, Meyers and Du-
bach of Illinois are also good teams.
Following the Conference tourna-
ment, the team will g from Chicago
to Minneapolis for a dual match with
-Minnesota on Monday. -In Norton, the
Bros brothers, and Pidgeon, Minnesota
has a team of' veterans. They have
tied- the strong Wisconsin team and
have other victories' to their credit.
On the way home from Minnesota,
the team will stop off at Madison on
Memorial day and meet the Badgers.
Wisconsin claims one of the best teams
in the Conference. Gotfredson and
Tredwell are a'pair of strong players.
They have been playing together for
several years and with the other two
members of the Wisconsin team about
whom little is known make up a good
.combination. t
On the strength; of_ its excellent
showingagainst the tas in the East,
Michigan will be a slight favorite
over the Badgers and Gophers. Every
man on the squad showed marked im-
provement on the trip. Pittsburg,
Carnegie Tecl, and Cornell were decis.

VETERANS PLAN
SMOKER TONIGHT
Gun and Blade club will hold a
smoker tonight at Lane hall, at .which
the two other veteransi organizations,
the Veterans of Foreign Wars, and
the American Legion, will be guests.
In addition, the men who have a'd-
dressed the club at various times'
the course of the year will be guests,
and the following men will deliver
two minute speeches: Dr. D. W. My-
ers, Capt. E. E. Collins, Dr. H. M.
Beebe, Maj. Robert M. Arthur, Dr.
Scott C. Runnels, Dr. Louis P. Hall,
Allan Stanchfield, Prof. F. $. Wahr,
Dr. Arthur Stalker, Dr. James F.

that the first part

of this statement is true, but it is
hard to see how the last can be ap-
plied to Mr. Lindsay. Charming his
audience at once with his appealing
'personality, he appeared the picture
of 'modesty. .His whimsical humor
which was so apparent throughout
both the poems which he gave and
the running fire of explanation with
which he prefaced each number makes
it impossible that he should be the
least bit vain.
Mr. Lindsay began the evening with
a few remarlis in regard to himself
and his work other than poetic in na-
ture. He haststudied art for years,
both in Chicago and New York, and
it is this which he has always con-
sidered first. The fact that he is
famous for his poetry is almost a sur-
prise to him, In fact, 90 per cent of
his poetry, according to him, was
written originally to illustrate his
drawings.
The interpretive readings which fol-
lowed were chosen from the repre-
sentative moods which he expresses
in his poetry.
In conclusion, Mr. Lindsay gave his
famous, perhaps his best known,
poem, "The Congo." Both the poem
itself and the interpretation were a
fitting climax to the evening's pro-
gram. The music which, Mr. Lindsay
says, must in great measure be "un-
heard melody" is made up of 'vivid
sound cglor.
Mr. Lindsay was forced to come
back for an encore, and with the char-
acteristic words "You needn't bother to
sit down again - this isn't long
enough for that-" he gave a charm-
ing :,little poem called "The Spice
tree," dealing with two lovers un-
derneath the spice-tree and the moon.

ELECTION COMAITTEE MAKES
FINAL REPORT ON MAY VOTE

Distribution of tickets for nextl

important' thing discussed' at the
meeting of the Student council held
last night at the Union. All the newt
members were sworn in; at this
meeting and Vernon F. Hillery, '23,
took office as president.
Only a few changes were made int
the arrangements as they were out-<
lined last fall. The freshmen will be
seated in a body in the West stands,
where they will be under the directt
leadership of a cheerleader. No one
else will be permitted to sit in this
stand, the other classes, alumni, andt
guests being seated according to a
regular method whereby each will be
kept separate.
The comm ittee on elections submit-
ted a complete report on the recent'
ball/ing and the method carried out
this year in voting and registering
was considered completely success-j
ful. It is planned, however, that the'
ballot itself shall be considerably1
shortened next year by the elimina-
tion of all offices which do not 'call{
for an All-campus vote. This change
will aid in reducing the time of count-
ing the votes.

appointed a committee to look after
the senior section at the baseball

of the recent Mid-West Student Con-
ference at Louisville, Ky., at which
