ANOTHER CONFERENCE NOTCH
With the announcement that the
Western Conference authorities have
jAitinto effect the ruling that to be
eligible for Big Ten athletics a man
shall have carried, passed, and at the
same time be carrying a minimum of
14 hours per semester of regular
academic work aside from any courses
in physical education or other athletic
work% a refutation is offered to the
arguments often advanced against the
continuance of college athletics.
The enforcement of this rule has
two} very decided advantages-bene-
fits 'which will do much to alleviate
th& so-called evils of college sports.
It will tend to place the main em-
phasis of an athlete's college career'
more upon his academic work than
upon his sporting activities.. Athletics
il still hold a place of prominence,
but what should be, the main pur-
pose of any man's attendance at a
university-that of securing an edu-
cation-will necessarily take prece-
dence over his gridiron or diamond
ambitions.
Again the rule will have the effect
of keeping out of the Big Ten uni-
versities those men who would go
to college with the sole purpose of
engaging in some branch of sport, in-
tending to neglect almost 4entirely
their academic duties. The Cofer-
ence authorities should be compli-
mknted for putting this regulation
into effect, for it will be of notice-
able aid in stamping out the unde-
sirabl'e elemsents from college ath-
letics.
THE MORAL PICTURE
One of the commonest dodges of
present day motion picture produc
ers is that of basing their plots on
what might be termed the degener-
acy of the youth of today. The ap-
peal of such offerings as "Nice Peo-
ple" and "Manslaughter" evidently
come primarily from public interest
in the decadence of the younger gen-
eration, for such scenarios claim to re-
flect not only the frivolities of the
jazz age, but the attitude of mind
behind them as well.
The producer, however, in his at-
tempt to make his picture effective,
has overstepped the mark. The
young people he presents are not the
young people one meets in every day
life. They are. gilded youth, and be-
ing glided youth, they are in no way
typical of the mass. If such produc-
tions are to be convincing, if they
are to prove to us to our satisfaction
that the rising generation as a whole
is hurling itself to destruction, they
must deal more intimately wh the
typical.-'
Granting that motion pictures, to
be successful, must gain their effect
from the pictorial, the spectacular,
the sensational, it is still a charge
worthy of consideration against them
that they are trying to prove a the-
sis by mere illustration, and by an
illustration which does not hold.
And if they are trying to prove no
thesis, if they are using their theme
merely as a vehicle to carry the
splendors of the scenes they employ,
they are to be the more condemned
for insincerity.
INDIVIDUALITY
Many 'a man stranded on a desert
isle has gone mad from the sheer
monotony of the thing. Likewise, it
has been said that a venerable philos-
opher took his life because he had
exhausted the resources of the why
and wherefore, and there was noth-

ing new under the sun. All of which
goes to prove the necessity of some-
thing different.
Just as no two blades of grass are
alike, so also no two members of.
the genus mankind are exactly the
same, and the degree of difference is
more noticeable in man because of
his larger size. This variety is truly
the spice of life, even the redeeming
factor of living.
The only reason in the world why
we are interested in anyone else is
because he is different from us, and
yet there are people who ever mask
their 'individuality behind the cloak
of affectation in an effort to imitate
others. The only thing that may be
said in favor of such persons is that
they deserve praise for their perse-
verance in so hard a task.
Those who imitate rarely overcome
the awkwardness accompanying con-
seious action and rarely reach the
ease 'of the imitated; but if there is
one thing in which every person can
excell it is the grace that accompan-
ies the exhibiting of one's own indi-
viduality.
As a final resort a good jazz or-
chestra could be placed on the job in
the room where a class meeting has
been scheduled.

THE WORLD IS OUR MARKET
(The Detroit News)
Michigan experts are again giving
thought to the disposition of the
state's great fruit crop. Thousands of
bushels of apples, pears, peaches,
plums and other fruits for which the
state is famous, spoiled in the orch-
ards for lack of a market.
President Fi-iday of the Michigan
Agricultural college has suggested
that western Michigan fruit interests
devote attention to perfecting through
co-operation, a system of marketing
which will involve the best obtain-
able facilities for refrigeration and
cold storage. Others have suggested'
a widening of the educational cam-
paign to induce Michigan residents to
use more of Michigan's own products.
These suggestions are good ones.
But is there not something more? Is
not Michigan justified in considering
and solving its fruit-marketing prob-
lems on a world basis? The climate
and soil of te state produce apples
and peaches which are without supe-
riors in flavor 'nud in preservative
qualities. The state should not con-
sider its marketing problem from the
standpoint of its limitations, but from
the view of its broadness.
One of the most alert and progres-
sive countries in South America,
Chile, has been conducting an ex-
periment from which Michigan can
learn much to her advantage. Chile
lies in the temperate zone, and her
climate and soil produce fruits simi-
lar to those of Michigan. In years!
of surplus yields Chileans, too, have
been forced to watch fine apples,
peaches, pears and plums spoil on the
trees.'
Chile's fruit crop ripens in Febru-
ary, March and April, just the period
of the year when the fruit kept in
cellars in the north temperate zone
becoires exhaustedti Chilens con-
cluded their logical market for sur-
plus fruit, if the problem of trans-
portation and refrigeration could be
solved, was in North America. They
conceived the idea that North Amer-
icans would be eager to seek in turn
the out-of- season market of Chile.
As an experiment, Chileans bought
last year in the United States a car-
go of various kinds of temperate zone
fruits. They took them to Chile and
found that the refrigerators on board
kept the fruit in good condition. Last
winter - our winter - ,the Chileans
worked the experiment the other
way, chartering a vessel and sending
40,000 cases of apples, peaches and
similar fruits north, through the Pan-
ama Canal to New York City, where
they disposed of them. There was no
attempt to make money on either ven-
tur4T, it being an experiment to learn
whether the fruit would arrive in good
condition.
The Chileans reached the conclu-
sion that inter-continental trade can
be conducted profitably. Their study of
freight rates and other elements con-
vinced them that they could sell, at
any point in the Unied States east of
the Mississippi river, fruits in the late
winter and spring at a price within
easy reach.
Michigan might meet a part of her
problem with simlar thought, Argen-
tina, Brazil, Uraguay, Paraguay and
Chile are countries wholly or in part
in the south temperate zone, and
should be willing to consider recipro-
cal marketing opportunities. Michigan
must deal with her marketing problem
as one in which the whole world of-
fers the field for cultivation. Virginia
has learned this. Certain orchards
there send their entire crop regularly
to Europe.
STHE MUCH MALIGNED PROFESSOR

(The Daily Illini)
Conventional characters are num-
erous in this world, and the college
professor still holds an exalted place
among them. Unfortunately, how-
ever, there is a mistaken idea which
exists in the university that profes-
'sors are merely creatures-mechani-
cal beings-who are here for the sole
purpose of reciting facts for students
to note.
The average lecture in any course
on the university schedule is a place
where students go to sleep, talk, or
jot down a few notes and get out as
soon as posible. Abolutely no at-
tention is paid to the professor who is
lecturing after the bell has rung for
the end of the hour, and very little
respect is given him.
Perhaps the spirit expressed in this
way is not intentional, but the least
'students can do is correct this spirit if
it is not meant. If it is intentional,
on the other hand the students still
hold that opinion of the high school or
grade school pupil which brands the
instructor as some enemy, eager te
contest on any point, and this ex-
pression is certainly not one of a real
university student.
Professors are human; they are
willing to co-operate with the stu-
dents in every way; they deserve the
support of the entire student body.

Night Editor-JOHN P. DAWSON, JR.
FRESHWATER
The writer of a communicationr
printed yesterday in The Daily sug-
gests that the present traditional
rules" for freshmen be supplemen-
ed by new regulations in order to in-
sure the fact that first year men real-
ize the humility of their position, and
also to afford some fun tothe older
men of the University. Among the
new restrictions suggested are the
enforced wearing of a red necktie
outside the coat, the banning of
knickers, and the prohibiting of cigar
smoking on the campus among fresh-
men.
In the same issue The Daily at-
tempted to set forth editorially, under
the heading "Start tonight, '26",
something of the meaning and pur-
pose of the rules governing the first
year students.
The main requirement, the wearing
of the gray cap, is not made in or,
der 'to humiliate freshmen. Rather,
its purpose is to distinguish the class,
in order that the members may rec-
ognize each other and gradually cul-
tivate a class feeling and class inti-
macy. Deference to upperclassmen
of the University, the other main fac-
tor in the so-called discipline, is in-
tisted upon because it is felt that the
new men owe some consideration and
respect to the older members of the
student body. One could hardly say
that either of these traditions is par-
ticularly "humorous to the old" ones
at Michigan. They merely persist be-
cause it is felt that such restrictions
are of some- benefit to the freshman
class.
In what is known as the "freshwa-
ter colleges" the wearing of red neck-
ties may be quite the thing for fresh-
men. And the rest of the students
may think it not unusual to build bon-
fires in the city streets, have snake
dances which end in the burning in
effigy of some overly-exacting profes-
sor, or paint up the statue on the town
hall steps.
But Michigan hats outgrown that
stage of university childhood. Her
