(By Associated Press)
Washington, Jan. 12.--Truman H.
Newberry was declared by the senate
today to be entitled to the ,seat which
he now holds and which was made the
basis of a contest by Henry Ford,
his Democratic opponent in the 1918
Michigan senatorial election. The vote
was 46 to 41.
Pass Resolution
The senate acted on a resolution spon-
sored by Republican leaders asserting
that Mr. Newberry was entitled to his
seat, but amended in .last minute
conferences so as to condemn excess
expenditures in senatorial campaigns.
All of Senator Newberry's support-
ers were Republicans. The Demo-
cratic membership was joined by nine
Republicans in opposition. These
were: Borah, Capper, Jones of Wash-
ington, Kenyon, Ladd, La Follette,
Nordeck, Norris and Sutherland.
- Newberry's Statement
' Senator Newberry, in the following
statement, hailed the senate's action
as a vindication:
"My heart is filled with thankful-
ness after three years and four
months of persecution have ended in
complete vindication and exoneration
of yself and all concerned."
e senate's final vote came upon
the resolution, amended by Senator
Spenser, Republican, Missouri, to de-
clare Mr. Newberry entitled to his seat
after substituting the Willis amend-
ment for the original clause which de-
clared the charges against Mr. New-
berry were not sustained.
Organ 's Serious
Tones Unbroken
During Recital
(By Sidney B. CoatesQ.
Massiveness and seriousness char-
acterized yesterday's organ recital by
Earl V. Moore on the Hill auditorium
organ. Only one number, Parker's
Allegretto in B flat minor, seemed to
break the spell of the program's con-
sistent gravity, and even this num-
ber, with its minor harmonies, seemed
not to depart from the spirit of the
whole.
Mr. Moore's most effective work
was in the tone poem, "Finlandia,"
by Sibelius ,which portrayed the strug-
gles, sorrows and victories of the Fin-
nish people. The organist's interpre-
tation was admirable, bringing out the
spirit of the weird music. The com-
position reacted strangely, for there
was portrayed conflict that was not
quite our conception of conflict, sor-
rowthat wasinot quite sorrow, and
victory not quite victory; but the
Finns are a strange people.
Parker's "Risoluto," which opened
the recital, was a work compact in its
harmonies, with semi-religious eeffets.
Its message semed somewnat obscure.
The other two works, the slumber
song of Parker and the Mendelssohn
selection, called forth the pleasant
quiet which &vr. Moore can give to
such seiections.
SCHOOL OF MUSIC GRADUATE

Crew Prospects
Alumnus Subject
"Are We to Have a Crew?" the title
of an interesting article discussing
the prospects for a Varisity rowing
team at Michigan, is the' chief article
in this week's number of the Michi-
gan Alumnus.
A story about Srinvassa Sastri, In-
dia's delegate to the Washington Arms
conference, and his recent lecture
here, points out that the Hindu's mes-
sage was of singular interest, be-
cause of the fact that Prof. C. H. Van-
Tyne, of the history department, is en-
gaged at the present time at Delhi,
India, in studying the new-represen-
tative government of that country.
Other articles that should prove of
interest to readers of the Alumnus
are "The Union Opera in Tour," "The
Building Program Under Way," and
the second installment of "Michigan's
Literary Lights."
MOVIE PROUCTION
AWITSSCENARIO0
President of Film Company Expresses
Disappointment in Quality
of Plots
SAME RULES APPLY, FIRST
PRIZE INCREASED TO $75
No action will be taken toward
completing the University movie un-
til scenarios of sufficient originality
and dramatic value are obtained, the
committee in charge of examining
them declared yesterday. The decision
that the scenario contest would need
to be reopened for three weeks was
announced yesterday and resulted
from the confirmation of the commit-
tee's opinion given by the president
of the producing company, who was1
in Ann Arbor for the day Wednesday.
"I am greatly disappointed in the
quality of plots turned in by Michigan
students," he said before returning to
the company's studios Wednesday.
"The University has been noted for
many years for the men it has contrib-
uted to literary and dramatic fields,
but the work on the plots submitted
was not remarkable in any way."
National Showing Planned
The committee appointed by Presi-
dent Marion L. Burton, consisting of
Prof. Louis A. Strauss, of the English
department, and Dr. Frank A. Rob-
bins, assistant to the President, was
much pleased at the attitude the pro-
ducing company took, since it was
felt that a film.representing the Uni-
versity should be of the highest possi-
ble quality. The completed picture
will be given a statewide and national
showing and, being the first that has
ever been attempted by an American
university, will n large part stand for
the college life of the nation.
"We plan on bringing to the Uni-
versity a highly trained staff, capable
of producing a high-grade picture,"
said the representativemoftthe pro-
ducers, -but even the most efficient
technical staff cannot put out a good
film if provided with a second class
scenario. We will not start until we
are assured that the dramatic worth
of our subject will give us satisfac-
tory material."
Prize Increased
The rules for the contest remain
substantially the same as for the first
competition under the auspices of The
Daily. The first prize has been in-
creased from $50 to $75, with the sec-
ond prize the same, $25. The remain-
ing rules are printed below.
1. The contest is open to all persons
connected with the University save
those working on the business or edi-
torial staffs of The Daily.
2. All manuscripts must be type-

erty of The Michigan Daily. Those
not accepted will be returned only if

TEAM CAPINS PREPAR
TO CARRY SICADRIVE
THROUGH SUCCESSFULLY
CAMPAIGN FOR $4,000 WILL BE
READY FOR START ON
TUESDAY
Preparations to make the Student
Christian association drive for $4,000,
one of the most successful campaigns'
ever attempted on the campus are
now well under way.
At the meeting of team captains yes-
terday afternoon in Lane hall many of
the organization details were attend-
ed to so that the drive will open first
Ching Tuesday morning.
Will Solicit Campus
Every man on the campus will bei
asked to contribute his share of the1
budget. The city has been divided into
districts so that a complete canvass1
will be made. Each solicitor will visit+
15 or 20 men.
The team obtaining the largest1
amount of money will be given a ban-
quet and the individual who raisesI
the most money will receive a cup or1
some other similar form of recogni-]
tion.
As was announced in yesterday's
Daily, several items of the budget will
be published each day telling howI
much money is needed and just what
it is being used for.
Used in Extension Service
Three hundred dollars are needed
for the extension service. Studenta
speakers are sent to the high schools,,
churches, athletic banquets, and fath-
er-and-son banquets in other cities
and towns for the purpose of urging
high school students to secure a high-
er education and to tell them of the
work being done here in the Uhiver-
sity. Last year 136 speakers were
sent out who spoke to more than 15,000
.people. The committee expects to
double the work this year.
The service is now branching out,1
with the aid of Alumni associations,
so that it not only takes in the towns
in Michigan but also Chicago, Toledo,+
Cleveland, and Buffalo. In this way
the University is placed before the
people of Michigan and surrounding+
states.
Fifty dollars are needed for litera-
ture and supplies. This pays for part
of the literature sent out by the S.

FINE CHAMBER music
INCLUDEDONPMG6RM
Of MATINEE CONCERT
COMBINATION OF PIANO, VIOLIN,
AND CELLO WELL
WORKED OUT
An interesting program of chamber
music was presented yesterday after-
noopi before a good sized audience in
the Union assembly hall, by Ethel
Litchfield, pianist, Henri Czaplinski,
violinist, and Boris Hambourg, 'cell-
ist, Inrthe Matinee Musicale sores of
concerts.
The program consisted of three num-
bers, the last of whch, a Trio, Opus
6, by Rachmaninoff, was decidedly the
best. The number calls for a varied
style of expression and brought out
the best interpretative work of the aft-
ernoon.
The other number in which all
three artists took part, the Trio in D
major, Opus 70, No. 1, by Beethoven,
reached near perfection in spots but
the work as a whole seemed to lack
polish.
In the second number on the pro-
gram, a 'Cello and Piano Sonata Opus
40, by Boellmann, Mr. Hambourg did
his best work. The allegro molto
movement had a character about it
and showed a mature musicianship
which made it stand out as the best
of the three movements.
Miss Ltchfield was the outstanding
member of the organization and her
work dominated all the numbers. A
fine technique and excellent sense of
rhythym gave character to everything
she played. Mr. Czaplinski shows
promise of being a very fine artist
and in one or two of his solos drew a
remarkably fine tone. /
Seltzer Speaks to Prescott Club
L. A. Seltzer, '92P, formerly a mem-

303, Chemistry building, at 7:30
o'clock last night. In his conclusion
Mr. Seltzer urged the members of the

they wish to accomplish, to lay their
plans and execute them, and above
all to exercise- common, sense.

U. of M. Choice of West
If the association should consider I
staging of the meet in any section
the country beside the East, Michig
would be the logical choice. Until C
ifornia won the intercollegiates l
spring, Michigan had led all westi
institutions in records at the t
meet. Eleven times the Wolverin
have sent teams, and although ne'
finishing first, they were usually wi
up in the standing. Ralph Craig
Michigan is a joint holder of the 2
yard dash record of 21 1-5 secon
which until recently was the work
record. Carl Johnson, the track wo
der of a year -ago, is the second
dividual high scorer in any int
collegiate meet. In 1919 at Boston,
was first in the broad jump, took s
ond in the 100 yard dash, and tied
second in the high jump. His tot
number of points was 12 1-2, alm
one-half of his team's total for t
