tempt to utilize a great awakening of
intellectual interest and enthusiasm in
the undergrduate body.
To Study Other Colleges

Paine' lvirtuosity upon the xylophone

LORPRC1FEC TS NEW
SLIDE'_IMPRO EMENT
Prof. Emil Lorch, of the architec-
tural college, has perfected an ar-
rangement whereby he is able to show.
two slides on two separate screens at
the same time, and thus is able, it is
said, to lecture more effectively to his
class in architectural history.
The arrangement consists of two
projectors focused parallel to each'
other, and each throwing a picture of
the same size on two screens located
so that the lecturer may stand between
them. In this manner he will be able
to compare the good with the bad; in
architecture design.
Audiences Here
See Rapid Films
Ann Arbor audiences follow faster
film speeds than practically any oth-
ers in the country, says the manager
of a local picture house. The largest
theatres in Detroit, for instance, he
told a representative of The Daily,
run their film at a rate of .1000 feet
in 15 minutes. In two of Ann Arbor's
largest houses the usual film rate on
the feature picture is 1000 feet in 10
minutes.
James E. Devoe of the Philharmonic-
Central Concert company.
Kreislers great art, which elevates
him far above all of .his contempor-
aries in violin playing,, has now reach-
ed a mature perfection which recently
worked its old spell upon a New York
audience. It is more than 25 years
since Kreisler first played in Gotham
but his recent concerts there proved
the critic's contention that for the
public, "Time stands still for those
it loves.".

Majestic
The Majestic Theatre celebrates its
anniversary this week with two popu-
la; picture and an ex cellent vaude-
ville feiture with Johnny Yule and
the Weller sisters.
Lionel Barrymore stars In the 1
screen feature, "unseeing yes,"
which Is showing today through Wed-
nesday. The film, the ,adaptation, of
an Arthur Stringer story, picturizes
the grandeur and majesty of the Cana-
dian Rockies. The company makiig
the production spent more than twelve
weeks on location in the rugged coun-
try around Banf and Lake Louise in
Canada. Seena Owen, who features
with Barrymore, is in her element in
the film and has ample opportunity
to exhibit her skill in horsewoman-
ship.
Prettier than ever before, yet more
sincere, Viola Dana romps through
her newest picture, "The Heart Ban-
dit," which comes to the Majestic on
Thursday to remain through Saturday.
Milton Sil the screen's man's man,
in the supporting rle forms an ideal
foil for Miss Dana's antics.
A girl bandit of New York's Bowe-y
forms the theme of the story. Molly
O'Hara is called "Angel Face" in
Spike Malone's gang of stick-up men
because she looks so innocent and
incapable of robbing anyone. As a
matter of fact,,she is a thief only" e-
cause she h" never been taught to
be anything else. The girl's adven-
iiures, the peculiar associations and
circumstances. which she experieics
form the plot around which the story
is woven.
"Carniival of' Venice," a specially
staged Keith headliner, comedy and
news, conclude the Majestic annivers-
ary week program.
1'Wertht
Pretty Patsy Ruth Miller is the
leading lady in the new Douglas Mac-
Lean picture, "The Yankee Consul"
which featuresat the Wuerth today
through Thursday. She plays the
role of Margarita, the comely miss,
who suddenly crosses the path of the
rich young Dudley Ainsworth-love
at first sight follows. The scene
changes from New York to South
America where MacLean.is hailed as
the "Yankee Consul.". He iperson-
ates the Yankee Consul and succeed
ing in untangling himself from a net-
work of embarrassing situationis;wins
his dream girl through the help of
the navy.;
Mack Sennett in the "aifback of
Notre Dame," news, and "Fun From
the Press" constitute the remainder
of .the Werth program..
"What Fools Men Are, the current
attraction at the Wuerth on Friday
and Saturday, is a story of modern
New York life.' A gay phase of life
is reflected in the picture,'a'life char-
acteristic of the city. We trace the
exploits of the flapper heroine in the
bigness of New York where freedoni
of actions and emotions rule. Peggy
Kendricks assumes an independent
attitude in "What Fools Men. Are."
,Her indiference 'totconegqeces
would have been less had she lived
in a smaller community where' the
force of public opinion exerts its in-
'fluence upon conduct. But in New
York, unnoticed by all except her
own gay set, poor Peggy plays with
tfire.
"The Dippy Doo Dads" in "Be Hon-
est" and Pathe news conclude the
program for the latter part of the
week
Arcade
Gloria Swanson appears as a boy
for the first time in her stellar career
in "The Humming Bird," which is the
current attractioh at the Arcade the-
,atre today; through Thursday.
Miss 'Swanson enacts a dual role
appearing as Toinette, the idol of te
Paris underworld, and as the notor-
ious "Humming Bird," for whom all
the Paris police have been searching
in vain. Randall Carey, an American

newspaperman in Paris, volunteers to
assist in running the "Humming
Bird" down. Real love for Carey
comes into the girl's life-she is will-
ing for his sake to try a respectable'
life. But then there is another girl,
Carey's fiancee, and Toinette is led
to return to the life she knows.
