themselves in the room so that the
width of it shall always be between
them. As soon as the discussion has
begun, their remarks begin to fly back
and forth, not to the professor, but
to each other for the benefit of
classmates. The barrage is incessant.
Out of consideration to the rest of
the class, those who are gifted with
humorous ideas should refrain from
calling attention to the fact. Perhaps
the others in the room are not men-
tally capable of appreciating the rare
dia2)gues -in which these scintillating
intellects delight. And perhaps Athe
residum would like to gain a few
scraps of information from the pro-
fessor. At any rate, these jaybirds
never cease their chattering, sense-
less as it usually is. The fact that
they realize that the man -in charge
of the class is not worth listening to
should not make them forget that re-
spect is due one's colleagues,
If these humorists could but listen
to themselves for one short minute
through the ears of others, they would
surely realize that not only are they
annoying, but that they are demon-
strating the fact that they tform part
3f the vast group of persons who are
not worthy of a college education or
capable of assimilating one. Would
some power the giftie gie them to see
themselves as others see them.

TURKEY
The congenial American smile is
gradually changing to an expression
of chagrin on the countenance of the
average citizen. He isn't worrying
about the intricacies of the Near East
situation, the merit of the new Briti-
ish premier as contrasted with that
of his predecessor or even, to what
extent Andy Gump will succeed in his
effort at reforming congress. What
is bothering him is the rising price
of turkeys, which threatens to detract
from the hereditary glory of his an-
nual Thanksgiving repast.
Reports from the southern, cen-
tral, and western states which furnish
the nation's supply of gobblers indi-
cate a shortage in the crop that will
make turkey a luxury this year more
than ever before. The prices areI
quoted at present at forty, fifty, and
sixty cents a pound with possibility
of a substantial increase next week.
Can you conjecture a Thanksgiving
without turkey? Leave out of the
picture the crackling of the pine in
the fireplace, shouting defiantly to the
roars of Boreas without, the shrill
voices of the children as they gather
around the table and lend color to the
quaintness of the occasion, or, even;
the pumpkin pie and cranberry sauce,
and you may still have Thanksgiv-
ing. But remove the turkey, and you
have dethroned an American institu-
tion.

LITTLE LESSONS iN GEOGRAPHY

It is a common saying that people
of Boston live within the limits of
their quaint old city, and "let toe rest
of the world go by." Another instance
of this is seen in the Boston Herald
of last Sunday's issue. In attempting
to defend football at Harvard, Yale,
and Princeton, the editorial writer
makes comparisons between the big'
universities of the East and those of
the West, remarking that in the East
the large universities have only a
comparatively small number of men
from whom to pick an eleven because
of large graduate school registrations,
while in the West they often have

TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 21, 1922
Night Editor-RALPH N. BYERS I
TURN OUT TONIGHT
Tonight a "surprise" pep meeting
will be held at Hill auditorium. ItI
has been arranged on the spur of the
moment in recognition of an urgent
need.
Just as a good rousing cheer at the
psychological moment helps win
many a football game, so does an en-j
thusiastic pep meeting, coming at thel
right time, inspire the team with in-
creased fight and determination.
Michigan achieved a great victory
last Saturday. Michigan must achieve
another great victory next Saturday.
It is in celebration of the Wisconsin
game and in preparation for the Min-
nesota game that the student body
will gather together tonight.
After waiting five years for the op-
portunity, Michigan men have seen
their Varsity smash through to the
final contest of the season with a to-,
tal score of 167 points to its credit as
against 6 points made across its goal
line. This record, made against
strong football teams, represents a
cleaner slate than that made by any
important university team throughout
the country.
Michigan, and even the alumni agree.
in this, has the finest eleven she has
produced in yfaars. But the teamj
cannot claim to be "Champions of the
West" until Minnesota is defeated next
Saturday. Overconfidence has no part
in the preparation for a victory. Coach
Little made that point clear when he
spoke at the last mass meeting.
Tonight students can do their part
toward insuring a victory over Min-
nesota by jamming Hill auditorium to
the doors and manifesting their en-
thusiasm along the proper channels.
To play on a foreign field is no easy
task. To bring victory home from a
foreign field requires an indefeata-
ble determination which can only be
inspired by complete student sup-
port of the team.

PENALTIES
Recently, a student was suspended
for failing to return two books to the
University Library after repeated no-
tice. Though this was not the first
time that this man had been warned,
or even dismissed, the case is notable..
Flagrant disregard of University reg-
ulations can be stamped out only by
drastic measures.
The man who cannot obey the few
ruls that govern the life of the aver-
age individual on the campus is not
worthy of being a member of the Uni-
versity. It is quite safe to conjecture
that in the majority of cases, the pen-
alty inflicted for misdemeanors is not
too severe. The particular offense for
which a miscreant is punished is not
always the only one which he hash
committed, as is shown by the record
of the man referred to above.
There is much more disregard of'
University restrictions, and more will-
ful disobedience of them than is us-
ually discernable to the casual ob-
server. Campus rules are set at
nought, campus property is thought-
lessly mutilated, and the offenders are
rarely apprehended. Obviously, if
detection were more certain, misde-
meanors would be less numerous, but
in view of the fact that the Univer-
sity has no police force to maintain
any shadow of discipline, stringent
methods must. be inflicted on all of-
fenders.
