REVISE THE SCHEDULE In connection with the announcement of the meet- ing next Saturday at Chicago, when coaches from all the universities of the Big Ten will assemble to plan the schedule for the 1922 season, various questions as usual present themselves. What will be Michigan's part for the coming year, and what sort of policy will she follow in arranging her next fall's program? Of late, at least, Michigan has played each year but four Conference games, while other Big Ten sister universities open their regular schedules ear- lier and are thus able to work in at least five big contests. Perhaps some such scheme as that em- ployed elsewhere in the Conference might be worked out for next year's Wolverine squad. As it is, each of our games counts as 250 per cent on the season's total. Thus, the loss of one throws us rather far flown in the list at the start, as did Ohio's victory this fall. Based., as it is, on percentage rather than "dope", the final championship decision goes to the team with the most victories to its credit, no matter what its program has been. The four-game squad, losing one contest early in the season, is practically eliminated from the running at the start, whereas t another, having perhaps an easier or more exten- sive schedule, is able to keep its percentage high in spite of a possible loss. Michigan annually plays M. A. C. and Case. Little honor is to be gained by Michigan in defeat- ing a college of the size of Case. In fact, if re- cent reports are to be trusted, the engineers down Cleveland-way have brought up the question as to whether or not it is worth while for them to con- tinue the annual no-argument game with Michigan considering the one-sidedness of the affair. The.past two years, moreover, we have taken on other outsiders. In 1920, Tulane came to Ann Ar- bor to give Michigan a bit more practice, and this fall Mount Union college fell easy victim to a Wolverine drubbing. Though furnishing outside competition of a kind, victory over neither of these schools could or did give Michigan any better chance of winning the Conference championship, and neither satisfied the craving of the University for a real fight .and for first class intersectional rivalry. Saturday football officials will be given the op- portunity of planing out next year's schedules. It would be as much a favor to the Ohioans as to Michigan were Case to be dropped from our list. We might then open the season with M. A. C. and one or two of the weaker Conference teams, and be enabled to take on an eastern game into the bar- gain. Minnesota played six Conference games this year; Indiana and Chicago both paid visits to the East. What about Michigan? HALF A CENTURY OF PROGRESS Nineteen hundred twenty-one is a significant anniversary for the women students and alumnae of Michigan. Fifty years ago, in 1871, the first four women to graduate from the University were granted their degrees, the enrollment of women having beer initiated the preceding year by a soli- tary female student. In the half-century of prog- ress since that date the number of women students has steadily increased, until for 1920-1921 it stands at 2,801, while the alumnae now number roughly 8,ooo. Though most of these women have been at- tracted by literature and the arts, many of them have pressed on into the professional colleges, and there is at present no college on the campus which does not have women students in its classes; while women are to be found participating actively in the journalistic, literary, dramatic, and other or- ganizations representative of the University as a whole.- But gratifying as this record must be to Michi- ,an women, the thoughts of these women today are directed not so much toward the past as toward the future. Nineteen hundred twenty-one will be mem- orable to them not only as the semi-centennial an- niversary of the birth of the society of alumnae, but as marking the inauguration of an enterprise which will mean much to Michigan women, both students and alumnae, in years to come; namely, the campaign for a Women's Building, correspond- ing to the Michigan Union for men, to be officially launched through the forthcoming Women's Build- ing Bazaar. The women of Michigan are to be congratulated at this time upon the record of their achievements in the past. They are also to be congratulated upon the prospect of owning a Women's Building, and the well-wishes of the whole body of Michigan students and alumni will be with them in their en- terprise. UNION "FORMALS" As a result of many requests by students the Michigan Union has announced that the regular dance next Friday night will be formal. Although no other changes will be made in the program for the evening it is expected that all those attending will be in formal attire. This announcement comes after many efforts had been made to put Mihigan in line with other uni- versties in the matter of regular dances of this type. This is the first time the Union has attempted such a thing and should it prove successful it is planned to have one "formal" a month. Judging from the numerous requests the idea ought to be popular with the student body. It is felt that oc- casional formality, isa good thing and in as much as this is the first event of this kind it behooves those who are in favor of the plan to give it their support. 'The telescope Outbursts The "birdie" that whistles is getting my goat, As he crosses the campus this morning; My reason is shattered by his awful note And that "birdie" had better take warning. He waits till I'm lost in deep cogitation In the library's hushed study hall, And then he chirps what in his 'magination Is a Rhapsody Largo from Dahl. My wrath it is kindled, my anger's on fire, My shotgun is loaded to wing The next "birdie" who rouses my righteous ire - He'll be pushing up daisies next spring. - Ichabod. She: What makes a roughneck? He: Try sandpaper collars. - Ermine. A morbid trend of the times has been evidenced lately by the swamping of Erm's correspondence with epitaphs. Most of them would prove rather unsuccessful if emulated with suicide in mind. Others give the deceased an undesirable type of publicity. Here is one of a number by Arthur: Quoth Eppie Taff: In broken spirits Died Willie Trask, He fell on his hip And a two-pint flask. Our Latest Song Entitled: "If You'll Be My Queen, I'll Crown You." - Cicero. Stolen Thunder Busy Billie (to tramp) : How does it happen that you're bumming, with all the work there is to do ? Weary Willie: It's like this: My ole man died lookin' for work; my brother died o' work ; my sister was run over and killed on the way home from work. And me, boss - I ain't -.takin' any chances. -Virginia Reel. Dear Erm: What has become of the old-fashioned grand- mother who coudn't go out because she didn't have enough clothes to wear? Yours, Jim. Dear Jim: She now has a daughter who refuses to go out because her mother makes her wear clothes. D.ETRQIT U'NIT2El lNES Ann Arbor and Jackson Detroit Linited r d Lxpr Cars-6.o5. a.
