From information which could be
gathered concerning the publication,
it was of the truculent, chip-on-my-
shoulder type, the kind which first in-
sults everything and everybody, and
then dares the wide world to criticize.
Contained in it were attacks against
President Seaton, of the little Metho-
dist college, the faculty, the Christian
religion, fraternities of the college,
college spirit, and the usually accept-
ed conventions of our civilization. In
it there was a call broadcast to all
"disciples of free love, Bohemians,
budding anarchists, communists, nihil-
ists, atheists, agnostics and pacifists"
to rally to the Maelstrom's flag.
President Seaton will, of course,
come in for a lot of criticism for
firing the editor. He will be assailed
as having stifled free speech. Upton
Sinclair will, perhaps, incorporate the
incident into some future book as
4 proof of the manner in which the
trusts are placing their heavy and
gold-shodden foot on anything which
savors of originality. But President

Seaton's action, we dare say, was
prompted by nothing more than anger
and disgust; no pressure, we are
confident was applied by capitalistic
interests.,
It seems, however, that the simpleT
course would have ho to ignore tb!h

there arise these liberated spirits in
our various colleges and universities;
they arise, publish their little maga-
zines, sometimes offensive, sometimes
merely amusing, and then pass into
oblivion. If the editors of these little
nmagazines are left alone they do one
of two things: they allow their off-
spring to die a natural death; or
they graduate and leave them without
an editor.
In many cases, too, these magazines
are a good influence. Not many years
ago there was one here at Michigan.
It caused a great hubbub; its editors
made many enemies. Yet it was prob-
ably the greatest intellectual stimulus
which this university has had in years.
People read it first to find out what
next the editors had attacked; and irt
searching through the editorial con-
tents they couldn't help but stumble
on ideas here and there which set
them thinking.
In the case of the "Maelstrom" per-
haps the officials were justified in
firing its editor. Certainly anyone who
calls nihilists and pacifists to the
same banner does not belong in an
institution of higher learning. Per-
haps his place is in Pontiac.

1. Sports
The Griffs, led into the fray by the
redoubtable Walter Johnson, lost to
the Minions of McGraw by a four-
three tally, although Washington was
a favorite for the opening game. The
redoubtable Walter himself was nick-
ed for some fburteen safe, sane
smacks by the New York stickmen.
Most of the money that was made
by the Capital fans was taken from
the Weather Bureau, which was pass-
ing around a lot of ten to one money
that the game would be called on ac-
count of rain.
The University of Michigan defeat-
ed Miami University in football, 55 to
0. Nobody won any money on the
game.

The Chamber of Commerce of Ann
Arbor has very kindly offered to
send the Band to-Illinois. The Univer-
sity as a whole must undoubtedly be
grateful to the Chamber for its
thoughtful actian, but is it not at the
same time a rebuke to the student
body that an outside organizationE
must pay the band's expenses on this
trip?
Would not the Team feel moreG
"pep," down at Urbana, if it knew that
the money that sent the fighting'
band down with the squad had come
out of Student Pokcets? The Chamber
of Commerce, after all, is an outside,
organization, and as such, should not

The complete assignment of dates,
with all its complexities and conflictsf
to the thousand and one campus or-
ganizations striving for your patron-
age has finally been arranged. Such
a list, perhaps is good in its im-
mensity if only to prove the unusual
activity among these societies, to
prove that there is at the outset an
abundance of quantity. Its prime vir-
tue, however, is to bring some order
out of the hopeless chaos by keeping
everybody from treading on all man-
ner of toes.
The schedule there in detail is as

SUNDAY, OCTOBER 5, 1924
NJight Editor-JOSEPH KRUGER
BURTON FIRES A GUN
For many years the University of'
Michigan has been known throughout
the nation as the training school for
professors. Men of distinction have
taught here for a period of years, ob-
tained that early experience which
was so essential to their success, and
when they reached that stage of their
development at which they were a
credit to the institution an offer of
more money from some eastern or far,
western university has tempted them
away.
Such has been the condition. It rc-
flects no discredit on the institution
for in this time we have attracted
many scholars of prominence from
other universities and colleges. The
fact remains, however, that in this
time many men who in all probability
would have remained in Ann Arbor;
had there been sufficient financial
remuneration have gone elsewhere.
Only last year one of the outstanding
figures in the field of English history
was called to Yale. His acceptance
may or may not have been a matter
of a financial offer-nevertheless,
Michigan lost a man who added to her'
reputation as a center of learning.
In view of this state of affairs, the;
remarks of President Burton before
the state convention of Kiwanians as
he "fired the first gun in a cam-
paign for the highest type of educa-
tors that money can procure" are of
deep import. If he is as successful
as he has been in obtaining money
for buildings the University of the
future can have no rival as a center
of culture and intelaectual refine-

A NEIGHBORLY ACT
The indorsement by President Coo-
lidge of the plan to create Oct. 12 in-
to a holiday to be observed in mem-
ory of Columbus throughout North,
South, and Central America was a
step of diplomacy. The whole cam-
paign and movement for Columbus
Day is prompted by a more far-reach-
ing purpose than the mere creation of
another holiday or even the honoring
of America's discoverer.
The creation of such a day, to be
celebrated alike throughout the Amer-
icas, would institute the first special
holiday which the United States has in
common with her southern neighbors,I
and with them alone. It would esta-
blish one more bond of relationship
between the nations concerned and
would be a step in the direction of
Pan-Americanism.
There is no need for Columbus
Day as a mere festive occasion. Honor
lii> ,ild Co in do-, the great dis-
coverer in other and perhaps even
more impressive ways. Holidays are
already so numerous as to create just
dissatisfaction from many. But as a
day whose primary result will be the
creation of greater international

WHAT A DISTINGUISHED CRITIC
SAYS:
Pv far the brightest book of rhymes
I've ever recommended;
A cocktail for these arid times,
Of wit and wisdom blended.
T've learned the volume through and
through,
And very often quote it,
Which is the obvious thing to do,
Considering I wrote it.
GEORGE S. CHAPPELL.
Another jolly rhyme in it is this:
Two minds with but a single
thought;
How oft we meet that kind!
Not traveling doubly down life's
road,
But staggering singly 'neath the
load
Of half a thought per mind.
The book is beautifully illustrat-
ed by Hogarth Jr.
* * *
A lot of people will say Gee Cowles
was pretty hard up for stuff I guess.
Look at all these here poems he
quoted out of a book. PRET-TY easy
way to make money if you ask Me.
Certainly is.
* * *
Speaking of pretty, that reminds us
of the Irish Rebellion. I mean of the
show at the Maj. The Lady behind us
thought the comedy was alternately
funny and pritay. (Get that, dear
linotyper, pritay.)
As for the show itself ("When a
Man's a Man,") it's every bit as good
as what the advertisements called
'Harold Bell Wright's celebrated
novel.'

Criticisms have been rampant dur-
le past five years concerning
administrative policies.'It has been
felt that there has been too much at-
tention paid to buildings, too little
to our intellectual betterment.Whether1
or not this was just comment, it will
be entirely silenced now if President
Burton is successful in his att Mpt1
to make possible an adequate teach-;
ing staff.
The increased budget, if obtained,
should bring about two things: an
increase in the size and quality of the
staff and a considerably larger salary4
for the numerous deserving members
of the present faculty. In the move-
ment to better the type of educators'
at Michigan, those men who have giv-
en years of service to the institution
under adverse conditions must not
be forgotten. There are now profes-
