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.

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 x a.

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 DISARI'A1KFNT The action of the Senate authorliz- ing President Coolidge to call a h ond arms conference was unnecessary 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- S i i t tixy struggled and sacr'ficed. or' screen; hut what of those brave v.hich contain propaganda favorable rfnchers whose whole lives were to any foreign government." snent among the hardships of the While it must be admitt^d that the Oesert. fostering what is now one of exct purpose of thle hill is not imine{ America's greatest industries-that-of itel'v aprent. there is every indi- cattin-raising?

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.
