tional tribunal to pass on priyate for-
eign concessions in China was pre-
sented by SecretaryHughes today at

mittee of the Washington conference
of -the Far Eastern questions.
France Alone Objects
Under the Hughes plan, which was
said to have been supported by Great
Britain and Italy, but objected to by
France, the international congress
would consider disputes over forgn1
concessions and report to the home
governments withsa view to adjusting
concessionaires disputes.
-The American plan, it was said,
would provide a system toaprevent
further exploitation of China by for-
eign nations. Action by the commit-
tee was deferred to avoid discussion
until tomorrow.
Japanese Agree

it was said was supported by the
Japanese delegates, who asked for

UNION PLANS NEW'
MUSIC AT DANCE
Musical numbers that have been off
the presses only a week, coming direct
from New York here to be heard for
the first time in the West, will be
played by the Union orchestra at the
regular membership dance Friday eve-
ning. One of them, "Annabei," was
written by George Maentz, '25, and it is'
heralded as likely to be a hit of the
year. Other numbers are "Morning,
Noon and Night," "Catalina," 'Ty-tee
from Hayti," "Kiki," "Cutie," and
"Frankie Blues."
All laws have precedence for tickets
for the regular Friday evening dance.
The sal will be open to them from 5
o'clock this afternoon until 1 o'clock
tomorrow afternoon, and after that to
the general membership.
In addition to the feature of the new
music itself, the orchestra will play
in various combinations such as the
saxophone quartette, saxophone trio,
piano duet, piano solo, and a xylo-
phone solo. As the affair is to savor
of a musical program, the Mimes male
quartette will sing also.
The ladies' dining room will be open
in accordance with the regu'ar policy
of the Union dance committee. Food
may be secured in the tap room and
brought to the ladies' dining room by
the dancers. No smoking .will be al-
lowed.
"Pygmalion "Will
Die Presentd At
Whitney Tonight
Comedy club will present Berard
Shaw's play, "Pygmalion" at the Whit-
ney theater tonight, beginning at 8:15
o'clock sharp.
The dress rehearsal was carried on
last night for over five hours, ending
shortly after hiduight. The cast which
has been practicing for the past eight
weeks on an average of sevral
hours a day showed little of the nerv-
ousness attendant on the typical dress
rehearsal,, and were several times ad
monished to put less :ethusasm into
their parts. A slight tendency to hur-
ry was practically the only criticism
which the director, Prof.'J. Raleigh
Nelson, made during the entire pre-
initial performance.
Mildred Henry, 22 Has-Led
The leading role taken by Mildred
Henry, '22, was particularly delight-
ful, not only for the decided contras
4n costuming during the play.but for
the very natural tduch which she is
able to put into her role. Her first
act costume is one in which an abun-
dance of rags and tatters, safety pins.
and a thin, straggling feather give a
rather complete imitation of a pover-
ty-stricken desire for fashion. Later
costumes are revelations of color and
design.ss
The three stage settings were de-
signed by Professor Nelson and car-
ried out by O. S. Davis of Detroit.
The second set, that of a fashionable
drawing room is particularly delight-
ful, color effects being carried out in
the costumes as well as the back-
ground.
An impression of a London fog is
given to the scene in font of St.
Paul's cathedral by specially designed
lighting effects which were first wo'k-
ed out for Sam Hume's presentation
of "Pygmalion" in Detroit. The com-
bination of frosted glass bulbs and
half-tone colors were borrowed for the
play here. The fog is considered par-
ticularly realistic, almost to the point
of dampness.
Cast of Characters
lhe cast of characters is as fol-
lows: Eliza Dooittle, by Mildred

MICHiGAN HOC.KEY TEAM
BEATEN BY NOTHE DIME
TEN MINUTES' OVERTIME NECES-
SARY FOR DECISION,
3-2
Requiring an extra 10 minutes
period, Notre Dame defeated Michigan
hockey team at the Coliseum last night
by a score of 3-2. The large crowd
that assembled there went wild with
enthusiasm as both teams fought for
the deciding goal. It was by far the
fastest and most closely contested
gams of the season, characterized by
remarkable teamwork on the part of
both teams.
Time and again Barkell and Sanre-
gret carried the puck down to the
opposing goal and if it were not for
the spectacular stops of Crowly, No-
tre Dame's goal tender, there might
have been a different story. The bu k
of Notre Dame's offensive work was
carried by Castner ahd Flinn and
they displayed steller play in getting
past the strong Michigan defense for
three goals.
For Michigan, Barkell was perhaps
the shining light, as he made both
scores. Team work, however, was
Michigan's strongest asset.
Irish Company
Appears Friday
To AidBuilding~
"The White Headed Boy," which is
running all of this week in Detroit at
~he New Detroit theater, will be pre-
sented at 2:15 o'clock Friday after-
noon in the Whitney theater under the
auspices of the Ann Arbor branch of
the American University Women, the
proceeds being donated toward the
new Women's League building.
"The White Headed Boy" is being
presented by a group of Irish players
who have coie to this country and are
touring the larger cities. It is through
the efforts of Mrs. Bradley M. Davis,
the wife of Professor Davis, of the
botany department, that these play-
ers have been persuaded to come to
Ann Arbor for this performance. Mrs.
Davis is interested in Irish dramatics
and literature, and, by co-operating
with Mr. Robert Frost, the poet, ar-
ranged all of the details for the play's
presentation here.
The production has come to the Un-
ted States from the Abbey theater in
Dublin. The Abbey theater is the
foremost of all little theaters and has
been responsible for a great deal of
what is new and fresh in the larger
theaters, according to Mr. Frost.
"The White Headed Boy" is closely
connected with such famous writers
as Yates, Synge, Lady Gregory, Lord
Dunsany, Padraic Colum, and St. John
Irving. It may be described as a
comedy of manners broadening at times
into farce. Its strength lies chiefly in
its characterizations, which are
brought out in a plain but extremely
life-like plot, while the charming Irish
brogue of its players blends will with
the entire spirit of the piece.
SHELDON LECTURES TONIGHT
ON EFFECTS OF LIQUID AIR
Liquid air and the effects of its
low temperature upon the properties
of other materials will be the topic of
a lecture, with experimental demon-
stration, by Dr. H. H. Sheldon, of the
physics department, at 7:30 o'clock to-
night in west lecture hall,. Physics
building. The lecture will be for stu-
dents in the elementary physics
courses.
Four quarts of liquid air for the de-
monstration will be obtained from the
Air Reduction Sales company, De-
troit, and transported in thermos bot-
tles by a University truck. The bot-
tles will be stopped with absorbent cot-
ton, as liquid air is a high explosive,
expanding to more than 1,000 volumes
at ordinary temperatures.
press from slipping into the realms
of commercialism." Thus James
Schermerhorn, editorial writer on the
Detroit Times, summed up ,the influ-
ence of the colleges on the press of
the nation, in his speech- before the
Students' Press club last night.
Mr. Schermerhorn gave figures
which showed that the field of pub-
lication is beyond the comprehension
of the average person. He pointed
out the 33,000,000 daily circulation of
the newspapers in the country, and
gave some figures which showed the
financial outlay that is necessary for
the carrying on of the work. Extraor-
dinary growths of certain papers were
cited, figures being taken from the re-
ports of receipts and circulation lists.
Some of the earlier newspapers of
the countrytwere displayed to illus-
trate how the papers have changed
from a rather primitive news-letter
to the modern paper with all depart-
ments.
RevIews Mechanical Needs
The mechanical resources and fi-
nancial needs of the newspaper of to-
day were reviewed, and he pointed
out that today a person, to enter the
field with his own paper in a metro-
politan city, must have exceptional re-
sources. Because of this, Mr. Scher-
merhorn declared, no one now would
undertake the game purely for polit-
ical reasons.
"There are no more of the molders,
of public opinion, such as there were
in the times of the past,' 'declared the
editorial writer. "The press did much
in establishing freedom, democratic
institutions and ideals. At the present
time the press only steps into leader-
ship in times of emergency, but at
such times its work is splend'd."
"At the present time it is back-
swinging after the work it d'd during
the war. This, in a way, but'signi-
fies the country as a whole. It has
come to be a department store press.
that is, it is a press wherein the pub-
lic may look for what it wants."
Commercial Sirit Prevails
Mr. Schermerhorn pointed out that
the o'der journalists were devoted to
pr'nciples and that now the cultural
and intellectual types have little ap-
peal. He claimed that they now
smack of commercialism and that
there should be a conference of "dis-,
advertisement."
"The press should speak of decen-
cies and loyalties," he concluded.
"The beginner should keep his vision
clear. From the schools come those
not yet affected by the sordid. They
can give the field the better outlook
which it needs.'

MOVIE MANAGER
HERE TOMORROW
A representative of the motion pic-
ture producers with which The Daily
has arranged a University movie will
be in Ann Arbor tomorrow afternoon
and will remain until the film is com-
pleted. Office hours will be announc-
ed as soon as possible, in order to
allow prospective entrtants'in the
scenario competition to confer with
him on the productibility of their
plots.
The few scripts that have already
been handed in for the reopened con-
test show some of the same faults
that characterized the earlier contri-
butions, according to the judges -
lack of originality and overdrawn
character analysis. The sole thing de-
sired in the present competition is a
dramatic idea, it is insisted, that will
give the technical staff 'of the produc-
ers new material with which to work.
It is not necessary that the scen-
arios be developed according to the
strict form of a final script. What is
primarily needed is an idea and the
manner of its presentation is immate-
rial. Brief and. concise descriptions,
short passages of character analysis,
and a definite dramatic idea involving
to some extent University life will be
the most satisfactory type of plot out-
line that can be submitted.

The cartoons, counting from the.

which commands especial attention is

DEAN EFFINGER ADDRESSES s
SOPH LITS AT UNION SMOKERs
Pep and enthusiasm marked the '240
lit smoker held Monday night at the1
Union. While the turnout was not ash
large as had been expected, good fel-
owship and class spirit reigned. Ins
a short talk Dean John R. Effinger
emphasized the superiority of a broad
general education as opposed to a nar-t
row technical training, saying thatt
business men were demanding of col-s
lege graduates more of the funda- P
mentals and less of what is termed as
practical in college courses.
Brief addresses were given by Dr.
H. P. Scott, of the rhetoric depart-
ment, and Owen J. Watts, '22L. Ta-
vares and Tang, '24, entertained with,I
the Hawaiian guitar and the orchestra
music was furnished by Niedzielski's

association upon "Highway Finance,"
this afternoon at their annual con-
vention In Chicago. Thirty graduateP
students in highway engineering will

EVANS TO GIVE TWILIGHT
ORGAN RECITAL TOMORROW

of Music faculty will give the next
recital in the twilight organ series at
4:15 o'clock tomorrow afternoon in
. Hill auditorium. His program will
contain works of Guilmant, Mozart,
Wood, Silver and Wagner,
Only $268.50 was obtained during
the first day of the.S. C. A. drive for
$4,000. This was $150 less than the
imount subscribed the first day of last
rear's drive for $5,000.
Solicitors reported that practically
every man visited was willing either
to make a cash contribution or sign a
pledge card, but that the main difficulty
experienced was that students had
changed their addresses and could not
be located.
Fraternities and house clubs will
send in their contributions as a house
and are asked to do this today so that
their names can be published. Offic-
ials of the drive emphasize the fact
that although students may not be
able to make a cash contribution at
the present time, they, can sign a
pledge card and pay the money any
time before May 1, 1922.
Not Many Expected
"Not many contributions usually
ome in during the first day of a drive,"
said Louis Reimann, '16, acting head
of the S. C. A., "but we belive that the
campus realizes the importance of the
work being done and are confident
that the $4,000 will be raised."
F. E. Gilner, '24, is captain of the
team getting the most money the first
day. The three high men of the drive
are O. M. Johnson, '23, Stanton Elliott,
S. of M., and Earl Morgan, '23.
Many students when visited dur-
ing the day expressed their interest
in one or two of the items which make
up the budget. One man said that he
particularly liked the work done by the
extension service and another express-
ed his approval of the University serv-
ice.
25,000 Attend Services
Well-known speakers are,{brought to
Ann Arbor from time to time to ad-
dress the University services in Hill
auditorium. Approximately 25,000 stu-
dents attend these services during the
year. Six University servicesnhave
been held so far this year and six
more remain to be given.
In the work of the extension service
student speakers are sent to the high
schools, churches, athletic banquets,
and father-and-son banquets through-
out the state for the purpose of urg-
ing high school students to secure a
higher education and to .tell them of
the work being done in the Univer-
sity.
Committeemen should give white
cards as receipts for cash subscrip-
tions, but should fill out and return
the red pledge cards to the office. Each
solicitor must turn in a complete re-
port every night before 9 o'clock.
