KELLER THE FAVORABLE EPITAPH The action of Sigma Delta Chi in awarding its annual favorable epitaph to Dean Joseph A. Bursley at the Gridiron Knights' banquet is of pe- culiarnsignificance. In addition to ex- pressing the feeling of that particular organization it is a mark of the grow-_ ing esteem of Michigan men for an advisor and a friend. The comparatively new office of Dean of Men is without doubt the most difficult position on the campus. It requires a strong personality, capa- ble of exerting his 'influence on the men with whom he comes in contact, and of winning their confidence..There is need for endless patience and tact- qualities combined in few persons. Faced with a complicated situation, Dean Bursley has done his work ex- ceptionally well. In the execution of his duties he -has made many enemies, the majority of whom have never come in intimate contact with him. But he has made more friends. The only difference is that those who have been antagonized have done more talking. The University is too large for every individual to know the Dean personally, but it is possible for every- one to meet him in one way or an- other. The increasing number of those students who take the trouble to do this will find him, as the epitaph said, "a real man." Va THE SOLDIER POLITICIAN Despite reports to the contrary, Field Marshal Von Hindenburg is go- ing to fling his hat into the political arena. Not satisfied to rest his claim to fame on a long period of service as a proponent of militarism, he has, accepted the nomination of the Na-I tional-Conservative bourgeois bloc and will prosecute an active campaign forI the presidency until election day, April 26. The spectacle of this dodering old' man of eighty years carrying on a campaign will be a pitiful one It is1 very apparent that he has yielded toI the flattery of those who'see in his. popularity as a war hero the last hope of a maonarchistic victory. They havel played on his vanity by recalling the< cases of Clemenceau, Balfour, and . Bismark, all of whom were active in! politics after they had passed his age. Deluded by this persuasion, the Fieldt Marshal has evidently forgotten thatc 7'rt i Si.n iIto #- n nn -.e 1.,,.. pletely recovered from their long dose pus Opinion" communications, and of autocracy.
