same half dozen'years federal inter-
vention in state affairs has been
greatly reduced, especially underbthe
guidance of one Calvin Coolidge, who
months ago took the wind out of the
states' rights sails under which cer-
tain Democrats had hoped to be
blown into the number one position
in national affairs.
It is such far-sighted moves as this
that promise to save the Coolidge
moving expenses during the early
part of March, 1929.
TITTOJ{tING
Preparatory schools with flourish-
ing tutoring systems received a con-
siderable set back at the hands of the
board of admissions at Yale univer-
sity which recently put into effect a
ruling abolishing September freshman
entrance examinations, necessitating
the selection of the freshman class
list on the basis of examinations in
June. The ruling, according to Prof.
Robert N. Corwin, chairman of the
board, is directly aimed at those pre-
paratory schools where, by "cram-
ming," a year's work is reduced to an
intensive six weeks period.
Although no reference was made to
college tutoring, an art that is par-
ticularly prevalent at this time of the
year, the attitude of the Yale commit-
tee is applicable to a similar situa-,
tion prevailing at the majority of col-
leges and universities throughout the
country. More than one student (with
apologies for placing him in that
category) lacking either the capacity
or incentive to work, and often both,
has succeeded in slipping under the
wire by a concentrated dash at the
end of the semester .
At some institutions it is frankly
admitted that tutoring is a necessary
evil-but such schools are not neces-
sary institutions. Courses at college
are so constructed that they can be
grasped by normal students who at-
tend their respective classes with a
purpose in mind. "Cramming" for
examinations under the tutelage of
one who is versed in the art of "pick-
ing the high spots" is hardly an ade-
quate substitute for the course as
originally presented.
We have no solution to the problem
unless it be that students who are
addicted to the habit should be cor-
ralled and explained the differencej
between "passing" a course and
"passing by" a course.

"The radio public is now num-
bered in millions and embraces
every class in every section. When
we consider legislation, we deal
with matters which profoundly
affect the daily lives of these mil-
lions of American citizens. They
are entitled to radio service on
the'highest plane that inventive
genius and mechanical progress
permit. The law in force in the
United States today does not per-
mit of the establishment of such
a system. Service can be im-
proved only be careful regulation
under legislative authority. Three
facts might be taken as settled:
first radio legislation is abso-
lutely and immediately essential
if we wish to prevent chaos in
radio communications, especially
broadcasting; second, the bill
now before the committee has
received substantial approval;
and, third, the Drinciples laid
down in the bill have received the
endorsement of both the radio
users of the country and the radio
industry."-Secretary Hoover.

Why not another Civil war? There'
could be no surer way of reviving and

A purple swimmer is about to cross

question which is worrying us just
now is what color he will be when
he's fished out.

J)ue to the unfavorable weather con-
ditions at this University, we are about
to organize a large Hejira to the Uni-
versity of Florida. We have atrranged
for a large special train to carry us
there. The transfer credits have
been arranged and as far as we are
concerned we will send in our colulmn
daily by radio. Anyone wishing to
accompany us may do so by first com-
municating with this department and
then paying the necessary fees.
The University of Florida is not
widely noted for its educational pro-
gram, but it has one decided advan-
tage over this institution one can walk
the street and cross its campus with-
out fear of loss of a finger by freez-
ing at practically any time of the
year. Also one can start Fords there
the year round without having to be
towed for six blocks at a cost of six
dollars a block. After all, you know
there is not much use in having a car
if one cannot start it without the aid
of another car and sound financial
backing.
At Florida, however, all this is dif-
ferent. There the weaker among us
may pflay golf and the stronger ten~-
nis. jThere there is sunshine all Ath
time except when it rains. Here in
Michigan there is sunshine except
when it rains, snows, hails, pours,
(rissles or is foggy or cloudy. Well,
figure it out on a percentage what
chance the sun has here compared
with Florida.
T1he punry leaves the Michigan Cen-
tral station (NOT the Ann Arbor) just
after the last day of examinations.
Arrangements have been made with
the Registrar's office to lhave the
credits forwarded to Florida. Also
tuition transfers are arranged for.
Students i ho make this journey
will unquestionably be able to pay
for their traveling expenses in real
estate work during the first week. We
expect to sell Rollo or give him away
and get a Ilispano-Suiza on pocket
money.,

Ann Arbor, Mich., Jan. 22.-(speal

!\Mipp, coach of the University of Mich-
igan crews is very confident that this
year's eight will be the best aggrega-
tion that has ever moved a Michigan
shell. Mipp's men are coming along
wonderfully under his influence. They
will e the apoplectic stroke,rather
e T iglish type of long sweeping
"feather" variety which most of the
American crews are adopting. This
stroke will knock them all dead, ac-
cording to Mipp.
The three leading candidates for
this year's crew include J. P. Badde-
vane, P. J. Bains, and I. C. Bath.
These men are all doing exceptional
work according to reports. The temp-
orary scow which has been placed in
the Union Pool is being used daily
and although it is impossible to move
it forward at all the men look as if
they would be moving it along at
winning speed if this were possible.
A boathouse for the shells is being
built on the left side of the lake in
front of the law building. This will

be used as shed for skating in winter.
Due to the ice none of the shells
could be used, even if they were here,
which they are not, according to men-
tor Mipp. « * *

It's not for the likes of me.1

THfE GREAT AMERICAN PLAY
Rly Robert Perry~
"Softe"time ago I said that I was
going to' speak on the Great American
Play. Toda'y I just happened to think
that there isn't any."
S"Tlie ai n'of every speaker is to find'
a'topic 'that doesn't mean anything so
that he ,won't have to be dogmatic
when the time comes to deliver it.
Anybody would know that who hadn't
been dropped on his head when he
was a baby."
Alexander Wollcott told the audi-
ence last night that the State street
book stores were offensive to him be-
cause of certain likenesses of himself
in their windows that were also like-
nesses of a trained seal.
"The reason I sometimes write a
column of criticism of a play is be-
cause thirty-five minutes is too short
a time to condense. Some of the best
criticisms have been said in five
words. Two sentences should be the
limit .
"I love to know all about my neigh-
bor. I am a born gossip." And there-
after for an hour and a half the dra-
matic critic of the New Yothk World
ifdilged himself, and the audience
again was pleased.
"May I telleanother story?" This
question came about ten minutes be-
fore Ir. Wollcott finished speaking.
In five minutes he again asked, "May
I tell just one more?" Just for five
minutes and then I will be off on the
jump to catch my train for New York
where Edna Ferber will be waiting for
me. If anything goes wrong it will
mean that the history of dramatics in
America will be given a set-back of
about twenty years." And "the emi-
nent dramatic critic from the World"
was off, while the chuckling audience
wrapped itself in its mufflers and
overcoats.

EDITORIAL COMMENTJ

"SOCCER," AN NTERNATIONAL
SPORT
(The Christian Science Monitor)
It is a noteworthy sign of the times
at this period that there seems to be,
a marked trend in the world of sport
toward internationalism. Many thou-
sands of sport followers in various
sections of the globe are watching
with growing interest the increasingly
frequent and extensive visits of ath-
letes and athletic teams to countriesI
other than their own. These constant
interchanges of sporting relations be-
tween nations are not to be decried,
but rather are they to be highly com-
mended, for they are aiding material-
ly in building the foundation for a
future "international league of friend-
ship," which should prove of lasting.
and beneficial value to the world.
Bringing nations together on a
friendly basis for a friendly purpose
is one of the finest means of arousing
universal good-fellowship. For this
reason, those who recognize the im-
portant part which sports play in the
promotion of universal brotherhood
among nations will be especially in-
terested to have called to their atten-
tion the future which appears to be in
store for Association football. "Soc-
cer," as the game is more colloquially
known, is actively played in at least

"THE STATC STREET FOLLIES"
Recently in support of a letter pub-
lished in the Campus Opinion column
concerning the Union Opera, the fol-
lowing communication was received:
"Permit an unconsidered under-
graduate to congratulate Mr. Riegel-
man. In especial one warms to the
strength of his conviction that he
speaks for a- considerable group, a
group who are weary of perfect
rythms from -'Stepping Stones' and
perfect costumning from Lester.
"But alas, alas, why must the gen-
tleman demand a play of college life?
We know that the Opera is largely
for the alumni, but it is also for us.
We. get as weary of college life in
our own persons as they get of danc-
ing choruses, monotonously perfect,
and insistently colorful.
"Let our next Opera be an operetta
not, a chorus. Why not write a show
that is real. light opera? Set it college
or set it anywhere that will allow of
gay songs and wistful songs, light,
humor, and a not too bitter satire,
broad jokes too, if such we must have,
but let the whole be characterized by
the mildly ironic tolerance and the
vital interest in the spectacle of life
that marks all justifiable art."
