The first and only complete rem- edy is .found in a new stadium. The structure is entirely inadequate for the present-day conditions and should be replaced when the project is finan- cially possible. Most people consider that the time has not yet come when a campaign, such as would be essen- tial, is practicable. Nevertheless, a new stadium must be considered by the Athletic association to care for increasing demands. The other remedy is found in the revision of the present plan of dis- tribution. The Athletic association claims that it has the most fair scheme in the country-that here the students are giv'en a better deal than any other place. On this point The Daily strong- ly disagrees and in doing so wishes to cast no reflections on the body con- cerned. It is no doubt doing its best. The time has tome when the alumni and students should have a voice in the determination of the plan used. They are the ones most concerned and logically should have the final say. If necessary the alumni quota of tick- ets should be reduced so as to give more alumni a chance. In The Daily's opinion they should not be given all the best seats, buit each alumnus should have at least a fighting chance to secure his one seat and if any are left extra tickets should be dis- tributed on a fair basis. Students should be given their share of the best seats and should be blocked to- gether in order that unity of spirit, the only worthwhile feature of the games may be promoted. In addition they should be given a fair quota of extra seats, probably two. , The Athletic association and the University administration have a def- inite responsibility in making sure that those primarily interested in thc 'future welfare of the; institution and upon. whom the institution is dependent for its very existence be not alienated by such a trifling matter as the inabil- ity to witness a football game. A change in ticket distribution is the only way of fulfilling this respon sibility. BUSINESS MANAGER WM. D. ROESSER Advertising..............-.-....E. L. Dunne Advertising..................

Many points of the letter indi- cate that the writqr is ignorant of the situation confronting the officials of the Athletic association. In many ways it gives an unfair and unreason- ble aspect of the situation. There is in it 1his much truth, however. Ile isI agreed, as nearly' all students andj ahmuni who have considered the ques- tion must be, that there is need for a change. The Wisconsin feature of the situa- tion is in no way the fault of the Athletic association here. Two thous- and tickets were sent for the use of the University of Wisconsin, instead of the 500 mentioned in the communi-; cation. These were put on general sale immediately on their receipt from Ann Arbor, no special privileges be- ing given to students until 1500 tickets had been disposed of. Then the Wisconsin athletic association tried, unsuccessfully to get more tickets than the quota for which they had originally asked. This represents either carelessness in the estimation of Wisconsin's needs, or failure to comprehend what it means to have capacity crowds, which is, by no way, a thing seldom coped with at the Badger institution of learning. It is also plain that the alumnus in question was not slighted any more than two or three thousand other applicants whose request for tickets did not happen to be in the first mail received by the Athletic association. .It is obviously impossible to accom- modate 50,000 alumni and the general public in 17,000 seats set aside for these classes of people. His failure to secure tickets from the Michigan chap- ter of his fraternity is not remark- able when one considers that there' were only five or six hundred stu- dents on the campus who had an op- portunity to get as many seats as were allotted in former years. The Daily agrees with Mr. hull,; however, on the fundamental ques- tion involved. As long as it is im- possible for the majority of alumni to renew their ties by returning at least once a year for a game little can be expected from that source of Univer- sity support. And as long as the ma-1 jority of st'udents are limited to one1 extra ticket apiece, they can neither; help out the alumni nor carry through1 THREE'S A CROWD IN A BERTH Bums of various kinds and var ieties among college men have be come a distinct problem to railroad officials throughout the country. I has come to be accepted good fora. for a student, when he wishes to tra verse a distance of zany length, eithe to forge a ticket, ride the rails or th( tender. Such is the attitude-it 1i particularly in evidence at the tim( of football games. All this is very well. It is any man': individual business whether or not h wants to steal a ride as long as b does not trespass on the rights o others. Saturday, if the practice is carried too far there will be man' students whose. trip to Illinois wil I be spoiled. The specials will be suf ficiently crowded with paying passen gers without the seemingly inevitably excess number. In many cases thos who pay for pullman accommodation: will be depriveld of them becaus others will thrust their presence or their friends where there is no room But this represents only the stu dent side of it. That, after all, i: negligible. The crucial aspect of th situation is found in the excellent ser vice which the railroads- of the mid west are now giving the students an( alumni of the University. The rate offered make it possible for practic ally all students to go to the importan game of the year while under ordinar conditions the cost would be prohibi tive. In return for this they are im posed upon by literally hundreds o students who want something for nothing. Often, too, the behavior of th passengers is not beyond reproach the equipment and furnishings beini wrecked by the over-exhuberant cele brators. , t ___y_ ._.__.__.. __. _._... y - - e z, g9 After every big game to w'hich railroads give special service, there come threats from officials of the companies to withdraw the special privileges offered football fans. So far.' this has not been carried out, but word has been received from a reli- able source that railroads are giving one last chance to students to show themselves capable of using special trains., The student who bums, then, must remember that he is not only break- ing the law and liable to arrest if de- tected, but that lie is- interfering with the enjoyment and comfort of others and may by his actions render specials impossible in the future. Those whoJ are broke may better take to the high- way, or if they feel the urge of the steel rails ride outside and permit other people to get the worth of their money., Twenty couples of Detroit's younger and more exclusive social set received' bids from Edsel Ford for a dance with want to become "Editor or Businessf Manager of the Michigan Daily, Presi- dent of the Union, Student Council, or S.

The prospectus goes on, "Do you want to become a Varsity debater, make good in a scholastic way and win a Phi Beta Kappa key, or just become the most popular man in your class?" The way to do it is to come to the Weekly Discussion Groups in Lane Hall. What are they, you ask? I quote: "Are they some sort of religious get- togethers where a few 'Holier than Thou' Sunday school boys learn how to reform themselves and Michigan? NOT ON YOUR TINTYPE! We might better call them 'Bull Sessions' or 'Pea Talks' because that's what they really amount to, only that in the end, because they're led by an older student who has made good on the campus, we really arrive somewhere." Quoting some more: "Those who have been through the mill feel that there is no better way whereby a Freshman can find himself than through these 'Discussion Groups'." And then the snappy close: "C'mon in the Water's Fine." Dear me, dear me! So it's the S. C. A. that's been making Phi Beta Kap- pas where none were before! That must be it!

The Barrie comedy is among his greatest, dealing in a striking manner with spiritualism, and inci- dentally, furnishing George Arliss at the time with one of his nost pro- ( nounced successes.

It is time some semi-professional said at least a word about Paul Terry's "Aesop Fables," which have now been running at the Majestic for about (I should say) two years, The semi-pro tribute to Mr. Terry's work is about all that is lacking to make the campus unanimous on it. One of these excellent Fables is even now on exhibition across the street. (I speak from the Press Build- ing, of course.)-And it is a beaner. It has in it a good deal more of satire than the customary Terry productions -in other respects it is typical. Mr. Terry has the gift of suggest- ing-or rather of caricaturing motion, In the same way that the regula- tion artist caricatures a face. I may j be wrong, but I suspect that accurate analysis of motion, and equally ac- curate caricature thereof, is a much more complicated business than mere- T'S a triumph-getting rich, fine quali- ty and newest styles down to a price like this-and we're frankly proud of it.
