equal size, and with practically the same sources
from which to derive material. . As competition
grows keener championships will continue to be
harder to get, and the campus should take satisfac-
tion in realizing that a showing such as Michigan
.has made in the present year means just as much
as the championshipse of bygone days when Michi-
gan surpassed the other state universities so far in
size.
PERMANENT POETRY IN AMERICA
Ann Arbor's poet series of lectures was fittingly
rounded out last week by the appearance of Vachel
Lindsay, sometime vagabond singer, and individual-
ist artist par excellence. The sympathetic apprecia-
tion and hearty applause accorded this unique poet
by his University audience is indicative of the grow-
ing universality of thought and sentiment with re-
spect to what is valuable as education and as art.
Wherever there is native human nature and im-
pulse, originality of expression, courageous devo-
tion to convictions, and an evident desire to better
mankind, consistently with more or less definite
ideals of beauty and merit, enlightened mankind
will extend an open welcome and generous recog-
nition, however extraordinary the particularities of
the artist may seem at the moment to be.
In doing this mankind is not only extending due
encouragement to genuineness, but is greatly bene-
fitting itself by the enlargement and enrichment of
its own knowledge and nature. The modern poet,
like the wandering minstrel of earlier centuries, is
thus enabled to contribute nthch of color and sweet-
ness to human life, which otherwise might either
become too drab or remain too strenuous for the
best public health.
For these reasons it is to be hoped that another
literary series will be provided in Ann Abor next
winter, and may become an established part of
Michigan's collegiate round of events. By their
remarkable interest in this year's lectures the stu-
dents and people of Ann Arbor have given their
generous 'measure of stimulus to the poetry move-
ment in America - a movement in advancing
which the present generation no doubt will be
found also to have served well themselves, and
their children and their children's children.
SHOWERS: HOT AND COLD
A bit of iismanagement that is causing no end
of inconvenience to the users of Waterman gym-
nasium is the continued neglect of the shower room.
.On hot afternoons such as we are now having,
students are prone to seek the comfort of the gym-
nasium showers only to find about a half dozen or
so in working order. This condition, while it has
not always been so noticeable as it is lately, has been
bothersome throughout the year. Many times have
students been forced to take a cold shower after
their workout because someone has failed to see
that the hot water is turned on.
?t is acknowledged that Waterman gymnasium is
entirely too small for students to use it comfortably,
and certain inconveniences are taken without re-
sentment. But the. conditions in the shower room
could be easily remedied. Some one isn't on the
job.
The second annual booklet of the class of ':3 has
been mailed free to all members of that class to-
day. Such a publication, containing an outline of
the activities of the class during the past y ear, is not
only valuable for its records, but also for the unity
which it fosters. Other classes might do well to
follow the example *of the junior lits in this re-
gard.

A NEW SITUATION
Ann Arbor has long considered herself ex-
tremely fortunate in the total absence of lawless-
ness in the way of hold-ups or attacks, and as a re-
sult residents here have been in the habit of ven-
turing into the most lonely places without a thought
of fear for their safety.
rfhis spring, however, a number of assaults by
yet unapprehended ruffians have occurred especially
in the vicinity of the boulevardtand one at least
has resulted in severe injuries to the victim. To
have such law-breaking persist would indeed be de-
plorable, and would continue to render unsafe for
residents one of Ann Arbor's most delightful spots.
Cannot the city employ a more rigorous system
of policing the boulevard district in order to stop
the lawless occurrences of the past few weeks?
AN ATHLETIC SUMMARY
Another athletic year is nearing completion and
while supreme honors have not been won in any
,conference sport, every team that has represented
Michigan has made a showing creditable enough to
maintain the high standard set by its predecessors
and to presage a successful season next year. View-
ing the season as a whole the results have been
entirely satisfactory, overbalancing whatever ten-
tative disappointment may have arisen from time
to time at the loss of a championship.
The football team, hampered from the start be-
cause- of excessive injuries of a serious nature, in
the end successfully overcame all difficulties and
even outplayed the best of its rivals. After losing
the first game to Ohio due in part to the psychologi-
cal effect of a touchdown made early in the game
by a freak play, the team held Wisconsin to an
even score and easily won the remainder of its con-
tests.
In basketball, which is still a comparatively new
sport at the University, the team again after start-
ing badly, won the majority of games and finished
among the leaders, making a good bid for the cham-
pionship. Many new players were developed dur-
ing the course of the season who will be valuable
to Michigan in years to come.
As to baseball, track, and tennis, the records of
these teams are too fresh in the minds of most stu-
dents to need much repetition here. The rack
championship is yet to be decided, but Michigan's
team while strong in dual competition, may lack the
individual high point winners to gain first honors-
n a conference meet. The tennis team minus three
of last, year's men -completed a most successful
eastern trip and won the majority of its dual con-
tests; The narrow margin by which Michigan lost
the baseball championship is known on the campus.
Thinking only in terms of first honors the pres-
ent athletic season has not been successful, but
Michigan should not expect championships every
year. There are other schools in the conference of

THE HERO WAS A COWARD!
He was striped with yellow like a zebra. The sight of a
six-gun turned his blood to water, and his life. was one
long nightmare of fear!
Fate yanked him out of an East-Side Tailor Shop and
spilled him into the wildest cattle town in the West.
The town bully promised to fill him full of holes then
things began to happen!

The Third One
Today we are printing a thrilling and blood-cur-
dling story which has been submitted for our con-
sideration. We hope the judges are hot subject
to fainting spells because we want this one to stand
a fair chance. As ail extra precaution, have the
smelling salts within easy access.
THE DEADLY RING
A man lay flat on his back, motionless. He was
sleeping. It was in the deadly silence of the night,
and the whole house seemed to be submerged in
more than ordinary quiet. This silence seemed to
stifle one, and to engulf one's very soul with hor-
ror.
Suddenly the vast stillness was broken by a
strange sound, seemingly a forerunner to disaster.
A sharp click, a grating whir, and then a conglome-
ration of noise that no mortal would like to de-
scribe. The noise grew louder and more incessant,
and the man jumped hurriedly from his bed and
looked for the source of the disturbance. He drop-
ped to the floor, and grasping the trembling thing
in his hand, he threw the alarm clock out the win-
dow.
