Among senators and representatives generally there was considerable dis- cussion and conjecture with the reviv- al on the house 'side of talk about a clashing of annual appropriation bills as a means of providing the necessary finances for the bonus. With the executive known to look with disfavor on either the suggested eight point tax program or a bond issue- sales tax proponents pushed their campaign with renewed vigor and were undrstood to have been well satisfied with the progress made.' They were said to be hopeful that the President would suggest this kind of a tax in his expected comnunication to Chairman McCumber of the senate finance committee. ALL,- NTIONS' T0DIL SCEDL ED FO A 'SEVEN COUNTRIES TO BE REPRE- SENTED ON VARIED PROGRAM Seven nationalities will be includ- ed on the program of the All-Nations' Vodvil, the entertainment sponsored by the Cosmopolitan club, the date of, which has been announced as March 4) Thus far the program, partially drawn up, contains some of the best acts that have ever been on by mem- hers of the club in 'the annual per- formance, according to Edwin Beres- ford, '22, in charge of the work this year. All of the acts will be given by the different sections of the club in the -native costume of the country rep- resented. Thus, the management aims to show the dress and customs of for- eign lands.' -An Hawaiian act will be among the leaders on the bill for the evening, while acts under the Japanese club and tire Chinese club will furnish a glimpse of some real Oriental acting. An Indian sword act, which has been arranged, will probably furnish the thrills of the evening. Music and dancing, both of which will represent the arts of the foreign worlds, will be included, on the program. Dutch Cellist Is Con cert Soloist Of especial interest to lovers of music will be the 'final concert of the Extra Concert series to be given in Hill auditorium next Monday evening, Feb. 20. At this concert Hans Kin- dler, one of the 'world's greatest 'cell- ists, will be present, with the Detroit Symphony.ochestra, as soloist. Though only 30 years of age, the Dutch artist has won deserved and universal repu- tation as a master of his instrument, playing with color and real sympathy the most difficult works. He is de- clared by Samuel Pierson Lockwood, of the School of Music, to the the world's greatest 'cellist. The program to be given is as fol- lows: Overture, "Donna Diana'"...Reznicek Symphony in D minor......Franck Intermission 'Cello Concerto, d'Albert, Hans Kindler British.

The official statement issued was that the Junior Hop was entirely satsfactor and was a, Breaking all previous sale records, the J-Hop issue of Chimes had pass- ed the 1,000 mark by late yesterday afternoon. Variety of content was the outstand- ing feature of the February Chimes.1 With an attractive cover in three colors, depicting a scene at the J-Hop, and an issue full of interesting fea- tures, the campus awoke to the fact that there was something good on the campus that bore investigation. In the past, Chimes sales have been below 900. Yesterday, however, more than 1,000 copies had been sold by late afternoon, very few extra copies remaining. Shows Fine Effort Taken as a whole, the J-Hop num- ber of the Chimes shows a splendid effort ,of the staff to put out a maga- zine of first quality and they have succeeded in producing an issue worthy of representing Michigan among like college monthlies of the country. Taking its name from the social function of last week, the monthly devoted a laige share of Its space to"the discussion af the J-Hop, past and present. HI6HNIY CONFERENCE CONTINUES SESSIONS ROAD SURFACES AND DRAINAGE DISCUSSED AT MEETINGS YESTERDAY ,fRoad surfaces, drainage, and snow removal were the topics discussed dur- ing yesterday's meetings of the eighth annual conference on highway engineering, which is being held here this week under the auspices of the college of engineering of the Univer- sity. Gov. Alexander J. Grosbeck ad-' dressed Tuesday evening's smoker at the Union. Today's meetings will. be devoted largely to the interests of the road commissioners of the state. Governor Groesbeck's talk was largely a review of the work of the state administrative board, which was formed during his administration. Prof. Arthur H. Blanchard, of the highway engineering department, pre- sided over yesterday morning's meet- ing. Paul D. Sargent, chief engineer of the Maine state highway commis- sion, discussed bituminous surfacing of gravel roads. State investigations with regard to dust prevention on gravel roads, and the preservation of road surfaces, were the topics treat- ed by Prof. Herschel C. Smith, of the highway engineering department of the University. Charles M. Upham, state highway engineer of North Carolina, compared sub-drainage of roads by deep side ditches and tile drains, at the after- noon meeting. Charles J. Bennett, Connecticut state highway commis- sioner, discussed organization, man- agement, and methods of snow re- moval from country roadways. M'atinee Program wShows Technique And Varied Skill (By 3. Frances O'Hara) Exact technical skill, a tone finely drawn and precise,.and absolute clar- ity distinguished the Bach-Tausig Toc- cata and Fugue as played by Miss Ava Comin at the Matinee Musicale,, yes- terday afternoon at the Union. Equal- ly good was Miss Comin's interpreta- tion of the Chopin numbers: Noc- turne, opus 72, No. 1, and Ballade, opus 47, the latter wining particular favor in its delicately beautiful melody, which gradually leads to a brilliant ending. Miss Ensworth charmed her listen- ers with her warm, flowing voice. The skill of a well schooled singer was evinced by her singing of "Lungi dal Caro Bene" by Secci, while "Fulfill- ment" proved her ability to touch the imagination of her audience. Variety was added to the program by the selections of the Glee and Man- dolin club. "At the'Brook" by the Mandolin club was thoroughly enjoy- ed. The clever "Ole Uncle Moon" cap- tivated the audience as the favorite se- lection of the Glee club. As aconipanist, Gage E. Clark, '22, gave proof of excellent ability. Admitting at the outset the excep- tionally poor quality of the fiction contained in the issue, which shows plainly either the scarcity of good writers on the campus, or their re- luctance to aid the efforts of the Chimes staff, the issue more than com- pensates its readers in the excellent and timely articles that compose the bulk of its reading matter. Reviews Arms Conference "Great Men at the Arms Confer- ence," by Herbert S. Case, which opens the issue is a lively review of the im- pressions of- the Japanese delegates to the conference as seen by Yasaka Takagi, a Michigan graduate student. The side-lights the article throws on the big men of the Arms confrence are instructive and entertaining. Be- low this article in box form are the names of the Michigan men at the conference /including that of "Prof. Rene Talamon, of the French depart- ment. Then the article by Earl D. Babst, '91, reviving old Michigan memories, which though entertaining, is obscur- ed more or less in the traditional haze which seems to feature all stories of the days that used to be. Mr. Babst creates an interest which he fails to satisfy, although his evident intimate association with our present mentors in their youthful college days is some- thing to awaken interest. "The Black Sheep Baas," by G. D. E., points out the astounding ignor- ance of the men who are guiding our litergry thought through the columns of the daily papers and, 'hints, rather broadly, at a like incompetency in our American universities. Review Olio State Passing from these more serious articles, the reader has an opportunity to view another, university through eyes that are familiar with its life and work. "Ohio State," by M. Bowerman, Jr., the first of a seires of four critical surveys of other schools which Chimes proposes to make, serves its purpose but incompletely. Then George E. Sloan's "Half a Century of J-Hop His- tory," is a complete review of the es- tablishment and working of this func- tion. "On Ice-Michigan's Hockey Prospects" is another article which ranks equally with the preceding one in both its treatment and value. Finally two pages of timely photo- graphs, an editorial section which tells all about Chimes, and a cever book review by R. D. S., make this last issue one of worth while interest tol the campus at large. Renwick To Give, T'wilight Recital OPERA OPENS NEW THEA TER FRIDAY "Make It For Two" Seat Sale Starts at Union Playhouse This Morning PROF. H. A. KENYON TO GIVE TALK BEFORE CURTAIN RISES Formalities at the grand opening of the Mimes Union theater tomorrow night will include a dedicatory address by Prof. H. A. Kenyon, of the romance language department. Professor Ken- yon will speak briefly before the cur- tain rises at 8:15 o'clock on the Union opera, "Make It For Two," which is billed for the opening of the new theater. Committees working on the opening plan to make the occa- sion a gala affair, the opera perform- ance to be only one of the features of the evening's performance. Mimes Quartette to Sing Between acts the Mimes q'uartette, composed of Albert F. Schirmer, '22E, Thomas I. Underwood, ,'23L, Paul Wilson, '23L, and Lloyd Kemp, '22, will sing "Michigan 'Memories," the song that made the biggest hit with alumni while the show was on the road. Every seat in the house will be re- served, which obviates the necessity of any line forming for the 500 seats tomorrow evening. The ticket sale will, open at 10 o'clock this morning at the Mimes theater box office, which can be conveniently reached either from State street or Jefferson street. The sale will be continuous until the performance begins. Final Touches Added A large force of stage hands was, busy yesterday puttin'g up the new scenery, and adding the final touches to make the theater complete for the opening. Both front curtains of the opera will open in the middle and draw to either side, instead of being raised into the.loft. The latter method had to- be followed in some of the ci- ties in which the opera played on tour, showing that the Mimes theater has stage facilities equal to those in the larger theaters.

Franck, '03, who will de- liver his lecture, "Oriental South America," "at 8 o'clock tonight in Hill auditorium ,under the auspices of the University Oratorical association, has "safely earned the reputation of being the greatest and the most unique American traveler." Started as Student Mr. Franck has spent his life in searching out interesting people and learning their peculiarities at first hand. Starting while a student in eollege, he hoboed his way around the United ,States during the vacation periods, paying his way by doing work as a carpenter, harvest hand, and cel- lar digger. During one of these trips he crossed the Atlantic on a cattle- boat with only $3.18 in his possession, but yet by working here and there he managed to visit Londoil, Paris, and arrived back for school but two weeks late. Since leaing school, Mr. Franck has wandered around the entire world, mostly on foot. In this way he covered in four 'years more than 5,000 miles. on his trip through South America and gained the experiences upon which his talk will be based.
