CRIME REDI)CTION The National Crime commission, in- cluding in its membership such not a- bles as F. Trubee Davison, the lon.- Charles E. Hughes, Newton D. Baker,' and lRichrad Washburn Child, has completed its preliminary organiza- tion and will begin active work in aI country-wide campaign which will en- deavor to bring to light the defects in the administration of criminal justice in the United States. This commission has no intention of relieving public officials of their nor- mal responsibilities, out will make available all the facts of their re- search work "upon wiich intelligent and assured conclusions and decisive action can be accepted and under- taken" to check crimes of violence in this country. The suppression of crime and law- lessness is apparently the most vital necessity in this period of rank dis- order. The efforts of this commission will be dedicated to a swift and sure justice that will discourage the prac- tice of the criminal and reduce the open flouting of public order. It will humor column, not a Bible. * * q BATHIROBEITIS This disease which makes people walk the street of our fair city in highly colored bath robes seems to be contagious. It also seems to be par- ticularly spreading among the young- er females. There seems to be no ex- planation of it, either from the point of view of the psychologists or the physicians.- From a nonscientific outlook, we cannot explain it. We have noted1 carefully the mannerism of those who seem thus afflicted, and they do not, generally speaking appear to be blind or "queer." They walk and talk in quite a normal way, and do not seemI to have anything particularly peculiar in their private lives.j Were it but one person, that would be easily explained on the ground that he had read some health book or something, or wanted publicity. But when a large number becomes thus affected, that's not so easy classified. We think it is a combination of color blindness and lack of aesthetic judgment, and also probably a slight disease of the cold nerve ends. Pos- sibly it is also a desire-to-be-noticed complex. Anyway the medical pro- fession ought to have a conference on the subject. Just sutos iti ott -o bad+c that (;r eF. Bailey T . Barbour \ ia Orrycr PiiC C. Brooks cuyen1 I.

OF COURSE TO'RE GOING Len Shaw of the Detroit Free Press wrote the following criticism of Mol- nar's "The Swan" which the Bmon- stelle company are to present in the Whitney theater tomorrow afternoon at 2:15 o'clock under the auspices of the Ann Arbor branch of the American Association of University Women: "Those who witnessed the perform- ance at the Bonstelle Playhouse re- mained to applaud the mgst brilliant achievement of Miss Bonstelle and her associates since she became the oc- cupant of the midtown theater that bears her name. "This comedy of royal love and in- trigue is perhaps the most satisfying of the Molnar writings. It is Molnar I in a gay mood, yet not unmindful of the serious moments in the lives of the people he so skillfully satirizes. Its retelling by the Bonstelle company is acted with superb skill. It is mere- F ly stating a fact that at the hands of the Bonstelle compny 'The Swan' takes on a warmth and a humanness which was not always in evidence during its New York presentation. "Jessie Royce Landis, assuming her first assignment of consequence since she joined the Bonstelle company, plays the Princess Alexandra with flawless finesse. To a truly regal beauty there is added a dignity such as becomes the young woman riled by filial fear and an inherited craving for wealth and station until love as- serts itself. Then the breakdown of assumed haughtiness is contrived with a deftness and a depth of feeling that makes it a notable characterization. Miss Landis may accomplish much in the months to come, but her Alexan- dra will always remain a brilliant memory. "Only praise can be bestowed upon Donald Cameron as the tutor-lover. Admirably fitted by appearance for the part, he brings to the task a re- straint and a shading that makes his Nicholas Agi a carefully chiseled cameo, rich in human emotions. "You should make it a point, finally, to place 'The Swan' well upon your, playgoing list. It is an event that lover of splendid comedy, impeccably done, should not miss." * * s TRIANGLE Despatches from Princeton in the New York. papers indicate that its un- dergraduate body also has turned from the serious business of football to the insouciant purusit of musical comedy.
