Berlin, Nov. 9.-The greatj
"beer cellar government' pro-
claimed in Munich with the an-
nounced purpose of regenerat-
ing Germany by demolishing the
republic and restoring the mon-
archy had a brief existence. To-
night it lies in ruins. Its career
ended ignominiously today in cir-
cumstances widely different from
those Intending 'its inception,
when, amid perfumes of beer and
tobacco, the burly General Erich
Ludendorff declared that he would
not flinch in the task assigned to
him.
Munich, Bavaria, Nov. 9.-General
Erich Ludendorff today lost his second
"putsch" within three years, and to-
night is observing the fifth anniver-
sary of the German revolution a pris-
oner in the custody of the federal
troops.
The man who was commander-in-i
chief of the German forces and is
credited with having lost the world
war for Germany, is tonight an igno-
ble prisoner of the young republic he
so thoroughly despised, and against
the fragile existence he had plotted
openly and in secret ever since he re-
tired to his reactionary Bavarian
stronghold.I
Surrender After Selge
Ludendorff and Adolph Hitle, who
had barricaded themselves in the of-
fices of the war ministry after the
collapse of the attempted coup
d'etat engineered by Hitler last night,
surrendered this afternoon to a de-
tachment of federal troops which had
been ordered, by Dr. Von Kahr, the
Bavarian dictator, and General von
Lossow, commander of the Bavarian
reichswehr, to lay sege to the build-
ing. Previously the Bavarian govern-
ment had dispatched an ultimatum to
both Ludendorff and Hitler who is the
leader of the Fascisti in Bavaria, de-
manding their surrender within one
hour.
There was - brief fighting between
the reichswehr and the Hitler guards
in which a few men of both sides suf-
fered casualties. Afterward Luden-
dorff and Hitler emerged from the
building and placed themselves at
the disposal of General von Lossow'sa
troops.
Status Not Defined
The status of Ludendorff and Hitler
as political prisoners has not yet
been defined, and for the moment their
capture merely marks the physical
collapse of Hitler's tragic, comic
"putsch" in which the world famed
former quartermaster of the German
armies became enveloped.r
Berlin, Nov. 9.-Information dis-
pensed by official quarters this eve-
ning would indicate that Adolph Hit-
ler's "putsch" in Bavaria scarcely
got beyond the confines of "rahts-
keller" where the Fascisti leader pro-
claimed himself dictator of all Ger-
many and Gen. Erich Ludendorff his
war minister.
Just what happened after that re-
mains-to be cleared up although the
rival versions ofthe incident which
took place in Munich last night indi-
cate that Dr. von Kahr, the Bavarian
dictator and Gen. von Lossow, of the
Bavarian reichswehr, immediately
disentangled themselves from the pre-1
vailing confusion and hurried to the
nearest barracks and there insured
themselves of the fealty of the reichs-
wehr troops.

IN PRESENTATION
GRACEFUL STAGE PRESENCE AND
CHANGEABLE VOICE PROVE
INhERENT ABILITY
HOLDS HEARERS IN HER
POWER AT ALL TIMES
Makes Characters Live Without se
of Stage Effects and Other
Dramatic Equipment
By Thomas E. Fiske
Gay MacLaren-'tis no wonder crit-
ics have called her the creator of a new
art-for if the way she was received
in her re-creation of "Enter Madame"
last night in Hill auditorium is Indic-
ative of anything, she may be called a
true artist. From her first appearance
on the stage before the large audience,
to her final words, "Exit Madame,"
her hearers were in her power at all
times.
Playing upon the imagination of
her attentive listeners she made her
characters live, and all this without
the use of the supposedly-required
stage effects, and other dramatic
equipment. That she possesses a re-
markable histrionic ability is need-
less to say, for her graceful stage pres-
ence, and her voice which she easily
changed to fit the various characters
are surely a proof of' her inherent
ability.
.MIis MacLaren Perfect Mimic
Miss MacLaren is neither a reader
nor an interrer- u)ut as the New'
York theater goers have labelled her,
a perfect mimic, "the girl with the
camera mind." For those who had
seen Gilda Varesi and Norman Trevor
play in the "theatrical city" several
seasons ago, Miss MacLaren in this
production last night proved to be a
true imitator.
Perhaps her best work was done in
her re-creation of Madame Lisa Della'
Robbia, the temperament-ridden prima
donna who plays with the affections
of her abused husband until she finally
realizes her folly. This character
could easily be visualized with Miss
MacLaren's presentation.
Opposite the madame, that is, as
concerns the versatility needed to en-
act this character, was her husband,
who was known as Gerald Fitzgerald
although usually called the Madame's
husband. Here again the re-creator
produced reality in a part. Gerald ap-
peared as the "typical American man."
,Miss MacLaren seemed to have little
difficulty in changing her voice to a
deep basso and assuming the mascu-
line posture.
Excells in All Work
But, if it were necessary to call at-
tention to her best work, all of the
characters would have to be cited.
Perhaps Bice, the madame's maid, the
Doctor, and Miss Smith, her secretary.
Frequent bursts of laughter greeted
lines from these personages.
Her artistry might properly be des-
ignated sublimated mimicry. She im-
itated, 'tis certain, for no reader hav-
ing learned the play from the manu-
script, is able to so thoroughly por-
tray people as they might actually
exist.
Miss MacLaren was apparently ev-
erywhere on the stage and yet, it was
not she, but the living acting persons
in the drama. She was at the imag-
inative stage entrances for the ap-
proach of every character, whether it
I were the Madame or her servant. In
the meantime the audience could al-
most see the other characters on the
platform.
One might say she brought Broad-
way to Ann Arbor and yet without the
cost of transportation of scenery, and
many other necessary adjuncts. The
whole long role of characters and the
expenses were eliminated.
Miss MacLaren's appearance was
the third number on the Oratorical
lecture course program for this year.
She will be in Ann Arbor today for the
Marine game, leaving for the East

ACTUAL CANVASSING TO BE
CARRIED ON BY 80 TEAMS
Canvassing of the campus in a drivel
that will have as its aim the signing
'of 2,000 students willing to support
the Union swimming pool by buying a
;$5 swimming ticket will begin Tues-1
day. Arrangements for the campaign;
are being carried out now by the con-
mittee in charge of he drive, headed
by Edward Stark, '24, as chairman.
Records have been secured from the
registrar's office of all students and
these lists are being gone over by thej
committee and those to be canvassed
divided according to their location in
Ann Arbor. Fifty students in each
(section will be assigned to each of 80
teams who will do the actual canvass-
ng in the drive. The teams will be
made up of four men and a captain.
Attention of the students who will
be canvassed in the drive is called byI
Stark to the fact that the tickets that
they are buying are not mere contri-
butions to the pool. After the corn-1
pletion of the pool, all swimming it
will cost 25 cents for each swim. The
ticket that the students are buying on
the present drive entitles each holderl
to 20 swims in the pool, making thel
charge for each swim 25 cents.
A meeting of all captains of the
teams and of all men who will repre-
sent their fraternities will be held at
5 o'clock Monday in the reading room
of the Union. The plans for the drive
will be explained to the men at this
time and instructions as to the meth-
od of procedure will be given them.

BREAK COMES OVER PROPOSAL
FOR USING AMERICAN Ail)
Washington, Nov. 9-France and the
United States came definitely to the
parting of ways today on the propos-
al of enlisting American aid towardj
the solution of the reparations prob-
lem.
Premier Poincaire was advised by
Secretary Hlughes through Ambassa-
dor Jusserand that restrictions insist-.
ed upon by France would serve to
frustrate the object of the Washing-
ton government in offering American
co-operation in an expert reparations
inquiry plan.
The state department refused to go
beyond this point in disclosing the
result of recent conversations with
the ambassador in which detailed ex-
planations of the French attitude
were made. No formal invitation to
participate in an expert inquiry is
before the Washington government
and a declination is,'therefore, not in
order. In the circumstances, no in-
vitation from the Allied powers is ex-
peted.'
