MORE ELECTIONS
For two weeks there have been
charges and counter charges regard-
ing every sort of politics and under-
handed work in the senior and junior
elections, especially the latter. This
afternoon we arrive at the sophomore
elections, and it remains to be seen
whether the campus in general, the
political organizations, and the Stu-
dent council has profited by the ex-
periences of the past fortnight.
As to the probable turnout of the
sophomore classes for their elections
today, it is impossible to make anyI
forecast. Suffice it to say that recent
events should have sufficiently arous-
ed class interest, and should haveI
there he found that their windows
were made of glass like his own. It
was in the evening and, lo, as he'
looked back at his house he saw that
it now had windows of gold. It wasI
merely the sun. So the seeker re-I
turned home sadly disillusioned. j
Our own student body is made up
of just such seekers. Things near
by look plain and ordinary to them,
i
and they go far away in search of the
richness of education. And when,
they arrive they find that the home
they left has golden windows. And
like the man in the story, they turn
sadly homeward.
Last week, the New York Symphony
opened the Choral Union series for
the season. The Art association
opens its series of winter exhibitions
today, the first number of the Orator-
ical program will be given Saturday
night, and next month the Extra Con-
cert series will begin. These are our
windows of gold. These are the
things we seek in the valley and they
are right here within reach. Yet few
students avail themselves of their op-
portunities.
In all, there will be sixteen con-
certs, ten lectures, and seven art ex-
hibits. Anyone may obtain seats for
the first two series at nominal prices,
and the art exhibits are free to the
student body. The best ofdartists and
speakers are obtained and presented
on these programs. One may hear
the foremost orchestras play the best
of music. Yet the majority of stu-
dents will not take advantage of this.
They prefer to go to New York or
Chicago and pay much bigger prices
to hear the same thing. Here lies an
education in itself, awaiting merely
the hand that will exert itself to reach
out and take it. Need we seek further
for our windows of gold?
AN OUNCE OF PREVENTION.....
The newspapers yesterday morning
carried two news items relative to
aeroplanes. The first announced the
death of three army aviators when one
of the Liberty motors of their plane
went bad and the ship crashed in the
middle of a meadow; the second an-
nounced that an aeroplane, advertis-
ing something or other, repeatedly
flew low over the crowd at Stagg
field, Chicago, during the Northwest-
ern-Chicago football game. Suppose
the defective motor had been in the
plane swooping close over the heads
of 35,000 persons, packed into a foot-
ball stadium?
Aeroplanes are not accident-proof.
The three men who plunged to their
deaths Monday were not beginners-
they were army aviators with years
of experience. They probably knew
a great deal more about the art of
flying than the man who risked the
lives of thousands of people when he
performed over Stagg field. Accidents
will happen; and when the time andI
the place coincide, America may read

ZILCH ThACK
AFTER REST
Noted Roman Contortionist Returns
After Short Rest In Owosso
lVitli New Plans.
En Route Zilch special,sOct. 20.-
Appearing to be in the best of
health and in the highest spirits,
Joesph Zilch, famed Swiss bell ringer,
spent most of his time on the train
coming south playing practical jokes
on the railroad company. At one
spot he ordered the train stopped and
he himself alighted and singlehanded
pulled up the rails back of the train.
Then amid the roars of laughter from
his family he again mounted his pri-
vate car and gave the order to pro-
ceed.
With him on the trip are his father,
Joeseph Zilch, his grand-father,
Joesph Zilch, and his two sons,
Joseph and Joseph Zilch. His daugh-
ter, Josephine Zilch was unable to
come due to a worn out transmission.
' Her car arriving at the, station just
three hours after the train had left.
The special is due to arrive in Ann
Arbhr as early as eleven o'clock
Wednesday morning. As Mr. Zilch is'
traveling incognito as "Joseph Zilch,"
the ceremonies of welcome which
marked his first visit will be dispens-
ed with, at his request.
An interview with Mr. Zilch
will appear in an early issue.
The other day some "friend" sent
us one of these circular or chain, or
whatever they're called, luck letters.
You know. You send one to seven of
your friends and it brings them luck
only if they each send one to seven
of their friends and so on......
These things are a positive menace.
They have a decided tendency to
spread, and if this keeps up the,
whole country will be saturated with
these epistles. When everybody has
had one the first time, everyone will
have the same good luck, so that will
make us all even again. So the idea
is really quite futile.
Then after they go around once,
some fool will want to have twice as
much luck and so the whole business
will start again. Something vital
must be done to check this or the
whole United Stated will degenerate
into a glorified mailing machine and I
to write up the names of the people
and their works.
It was not the talking, however,
daring as that was, but the perform-
ance that we enjoyed. We in turn
must protest to Mr. Maier that he
wanted us to follow his program of
words too closely, and would have
preferred just a little freer play al-
lowed to our imagination.
The interpretation of modern mu-
sic was excellent, as both the Maiers
seemed in sympathy with the music
they played. They played Ravels
Sleeping Beauty, etc.,ytoeperfection
and revelled in a truant piece by
Poulene. The rhythm of the Russian
Peasant Dance was finely done. We
wish they would give a program of
various types of modern music.
In contrast to this came a Bach-
Maier concerto, which was more
Maier in spirit than Bach. That Mr.
Maier can, however, play in the spirit
of the ancients is proved by his ren-
dering of Brahms's lovesongs.
But the evening owed its success to
the Maiers fine performance of mod-
ern music.
"ANNA CHRISTIE"
A reveiw, by Harold Dobberteen.
(Editor's 1Note: This following re-
view is especially pertinent as both
of the leading Detroit stock com-
panies are presenting exceptionally
artistic plays this week. A review of
Miss Bonstelle's production of "The
Beggar on Horseback" will also ap-
pear in the column shortly.)
For something like three and a half
years Detroit dramatic critics have
been reviewing the performances of
the Woodward Players. The most
frequent phrase in their reviews has
been-"in their usual complete and
finished fashion the company at the
Majestic Theatre
Sunday evening this distinguished
company excelled themselves with
their production of "Anna Christie."
It is as good a play as Eugene O'Neil
has written, more representative of
life and with a more basic appeal
than "Desire Under the Elms." It is
more truly dramatic, more real, more
intense than his infamous "All Gods
Chilluns Got Wings."
J. Arthur Young makes Chris some-
thing beyond a man with an obession,
beyond a man who merely hates the
sea. He brings the audience to re-
alize, with Matt Burke and Anna, that
the sea exerts a power over their
lives. "We're all a lot of poor nuts-
we can't help it," as Anna says. Mr.
Young's Sweedish accent was not at
all times flawless, but in many places
his execution was perfect.
Anna, as played by Isabel Randolph
with a wonderful interpretive insight,
was more like O'Neil's Anna, the real
Anna, than was the portrayal by Pau-
line Lord. In the third act as she
throws off the two men who love her
and tells her story, she denounces
them in the most impassioned man-
ner I, for one, have ever witnessed
on the stage.
Charles Meredith, Mr. McGee's new
leading man, shows off his powerful
physique, his ability as an actor, and
his mastery of Irish brogue and in-
flection.
The whole production was on the
highest plane.
Satisfaction guaranteed.
