BROADWAY AND BLUE LAWS .
Wicked NewnYork City and its state
have a good chance of being reformed,
at least on Sunday ,if a bill now be-
ing drafted by reformers in the 1'g-
islature should be passed by that
body. It is proposed that New York-
ers do nothing on Sunday but go to
church. They are not to drive their
cars in the afternoon, unless they
have attended services in the morn-i
ing; they will not be perimittcd to
purchase gasoline or candy; the
shows will be closed, and the base-
ball bat will cease to swing. Pidture

maybe it won't.I
HISTORICAL PROPAG NDA
A new war on history textbooks
which falsify the facts regarding the
United States of the past has been
started in the New York state legis-
lature by William H. O'Brien of Dor-
chester, who believes that "a single!
noisoned history will do oinr" dea; g
;n one school session of ten mnr;th
than a hundred shipleads of Reds
could possibly do in ten years."
A further perusal of this remark-
able stand reveals the fact that what
the gentleman is so bitterly opposea
to is not propaganda as such but
rather histories which might be justly
accused of presenting the facts about
America and Americans of the past
shorn of the giamour and praise with
which it has bA'n the custom to sl-r-
round them. Almost in the same
breath he declares that the nurpese of
his bill is to prevent the circulation
of "propaganda going on in our
schools today designed to destroy
American ideals and t'aditicns" and
the use of any textbooks in any of the
public schools "which falsify the facts
regarding the war of indepenIence,
or the war of 1212, or which defame
our nation's founders or lis'rmere-
senl the ideals end causes for which

A raviCw, by Robert Wagner.
After viewing a production such as
'North of 36," one is inclined to take
a, more optimistic view of the futurei
of the cinema. The pity of it is that'
there are not more pictures as well
done or as well conceived.
"North of 36" presents a phase of1
pioneer life which has received little
emphasis by our historians. Those
staunch Americans who fought their
way across the deserts in search ofl
gold and a. more free civilization have
ben glorified in story and on thet

The action of the Senate authorliz-
ing President Coolidge to call a h

to say the least in view of the fact
that the administration only a few
days ago expressed its policy in theS
matter: namely, that the League of
Nations should first be given an op-
portunity to carry out the provisions
of its Protocol, Orafted at 11e assem-

THE MATINEE MTSICAlIl
A review, by Hester Reed Gehring.
The January'meeting of the Mat ineo
Musicale, held Wednesday afternoon
in the School of Music auditorium,
was devoted to composers of the to-
mantic period, and featurcd Annie
Dexter Gray of Ypsilanti as goes
soloist, in two groups of Schumannr
and Schubert songs. Mrs. (ray',
charming voice and personality insire
her a warm reception whenever she
appears in Ann Arbor. She was heard
to best advantage in Schumann's
"Der Nussbaum," anrl in "Wohin"
and "Hark, Hark the Lark" by Sehu-
bert. Frederick Alexander, who is
well known to local audiences as con-
ductor of the Ypsilanti Normal Cheir,
added immeasurably to the effective-
ness of Mrs. Gray's singing by his
beautiful accompaniments.
The rest of the program was given
over to a performance of Mendels-
sohn's brilliant D minor trio, by Sam-
vel P, Lockwocd, Ora Larthard, and
Maud Okkelberg, followed by Brahms'
"Liebeslieder," sung by Helen Rose,
soprano, Nora Hunt, contralto, "Wil-
liam Wilcox, tenor, and Lee Mills,
bass. Maude Kleyn directed the quar-
tet, with Martha Merkle and Grace
Richards at the piano in a four hand
accompaniment, which at times seem-
ed rather too heavy for the voices it
supported.
The Matinee Musicale is to be con-!
gratulated upon its decis'on to hold;
future meetings at the School of Mu-
sic, instead of the Michigan Union,
as in the past, and certainly the solo-
ists and accompanists who have
struggled in vain to extract tone from
the poor jazz-worn Union piano will
appreciate the change.

"NORTH OF 3T'
A review, by Robert E3. Sherwood.
There is a laborious attempt to en-
dow "North of 36" with the same epic
quality that dignified "The Covered
Wagon." For no reason whatever.
subtitles like this are inserted: "You
will become one of the pioneers who
helped to heal the wounds of conflict
by uniting North and South and open-
ing up what eventually w11be known
as The Great West"-giving the or-
ganist an opportunity to play "Yankee
Doodle" with one hand, "Dixie" with
the other, and "California, Here I1
Come" with his feet.
"North of 36," for all these attempts,

does not possess the heroic sweep of
"The Covered Wagon;" it is nothing
more, in fact, than just a real good
picture. It is rather shaky in its
continuity and its villainy is a bit
too deeply dyed, but it is acted with
genuine feeling and it includes sev-
eral magnificent settings.
The story is by Emerson Hough,
and it considers the trails of a Texas
girl who has determined to drive her
herd of cattle through the Comanche
wilderness to the railroad terminus
of Abilene, Kansas. The steers, under
the direction of Irvin Willat, stampedA
madly all over the Lone Star State,
and they, at least, provide many legi-
timate thrills.
The error of "North of 36," however.
'lies in not appreciating that the epic
