SEWBERRY'S RIGHT TO SEAT GRANTED BY SENA'[ UTET SUPPORTERS OF SENATOR SE- CURE SUCCESSVUL BALLOT 46.41 RESOLUTION PASSED TO CONDE% N XPENDITURE Commodore States Action Vindleates Rim in Statement to Public (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 TO GIVE CON VE RT TONIGHT, Offering a program of variety and containing selections from a wide se- lection of composers, Mrs. Emma Fis- cher-Cross, formerly of Ann Arbor and teacher in the School of Music, will give a piano and organ concert at 8 o'clock tonight in the Ann Arbor Beth- lehem church.

Camp Davis Men Plan Dance A dance under the auspices of the Camp Davis men, those who attended the surveying camp on Douglas lake, will be given in Barbour gymnasium from 9 to 1 o'clock tonight.- ' To add local color to the function, Camp Davis dress will prevail and during the program of dances there will be a camp sing. A few tickets re- main which may be secured for $1.50 per couple at the door, 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.

One curious fact about the psychol- on the field and gym floor during ogy of tue wants-to-be atniece is that meets, and the result has been that II- ut is apt, nine times out of ten, to linois, with her numbers, has won the reirain irom presencang himser for meets, whereas Michigan has lost out, 'raruing because he ieeis teall he simply because she has been unable w'ands no cance when men of abii- to pile up a large number of small ,iy ana much sport-page fame are scores.
