TO HAVE OPEN FORUM "Is War Consistent with Christian- ity?" will be the topic of the debate between Prof. Preston W. Slosson of the history department and Dorothy Detzler, national secretary of the, Women's International League for Peace and Freedom, at 4:30 o'clock tomorrow in Newberry hall auditori- um. The debate will mark the first" public meeting to be sponsored by the' local chapter of the War Resisters' league, a national organization that pledges its members never to take part in defensive or offensive warfare or to aid in any way the carrying on of such wars. Prof. W. W. Denton of the mathematics department will pre-, side. Professor Slosson, before affiliating with the University, was connected1 with the state department during the administration of President Wilson, and in 1918 and 1919 was assistantL librarian to the American Committee! to Negotiate Peace. He is a memberj of the League of Nations Non-partisan league and has spoken for the cessa- tion of war, but his views are said to differ radically from the pacifistic arguments that are to be advanced by his opponent. Miss Detzler 'represents a group that is attempting, through an or- ganization of the women of 21 na- tions, to' substitute law for war, and is at the Prescnt time nrkinig a na- tional speaking tour in behalf of the World court. She was active a year ago with the American Friends Serv- ice commission, working in Russia. + Each speaker is to be allowed 20 minutes, after which the members of the audience will be given an oppor- tunity to question either of the de- baters. ASSEMBLY WILDECIDE By David Vokes Displaying even greater strength than the most ardent Gopher en- thusiast dared to predict, Minnesota's swimming team last night won the Western Conference title in the cham- pionship meet which was held at the Union pool, with a point total of 411 points, compared to 33 for Michigan and 17 for Wisconsin. The winners displayed a well bal- anced team, placing men in every event with the exception of the 440 yard free style, winning three indi- vidual events and both the 200 yard free style and 300 yard medley relays. Michigan's swimmers placed in every stars. - Take Two Firsts Although Michigan did not win the meet, Coach Mann's natators amassed a point total in last night's meet that comes within five points of the total num'ber of points that Wolverine swimmers have made in Conference meets since they entered the Confer- ecce four years ago. This meet also marks the first time in the history of swimming here that Michigan has ever taken two first places in a champion- ship meet. Up until the 100 yard free style race, the lead had seesawed back and forth between Minnesota and Michigan, but Moody's and Sam Hill's victory over Darnall in that event gave the Goph- ers a lead that they never relinquished. Paul Samson of Michigan was the individual star of the meet with 10 points in the 220 and 440, a two point margin over Moody of Minnesota, who wvn the 100 yard free style and placed second to Samson in the 220. Although Herschberger of Wisconsin scored on- ly five points in the individual point ,scoring, he proved himself the most able dashman in the meet by his re- 'anrkable showing in the 50 yard dash which he won, and his performance as .anchor man on the Badger relay quar- tet. Darnall Nosed Out 1n the first event on the program, the 200 yard relay, Darnall of Michi- gau, swimming anchor man on the Michigan quartet, was nosed out at the finish by less than two inches by Sam Hill of Minnesota. Darnall came back however in the 50 yard free style and placed second to Herschberger of Wis- consin over Hill, who placed third. Michigan's hopes received a severe blow in the quarter-mile race when Fred Dunakin, who has been rated as one of the best 440 men in the Con- ference, failed to place in his favorite event. He staged a comeback in the 220 yard race, however, and placedl fourth in a fast field. Mickey Carter, one of Coach Mann's proteges when Mann coached at the Du- luth Boat club, contributed materially to his former tutor's defeat when he won first place in the fancy dive Starrett, of Michigan, who was sixth in the qualifying round advanced twc places to fourth place. Miss Beatty Performs Miss Caris Beatty of Detroit, a eight year old swimming protege of Coach Mann's, gave an exhibition o swimming and fancy diving prior tC the start of the meet. Carter of Iowa and Kratz of Wis- conin staged a neck and neck rac STUDIED IN EUROPE Clergyman's Work With Sherwood Eddy Has Provided Hine With Much Material For Study As the speaker on the Uiiversity service program, Dr. Reinhold Nie- buhr, clergyman and writer, will talk on "The Sons of Zion and the Sons of Greece" at 7:30 o'clock tonight in Hill auditorium. Several summers spent in Europe with Sherwood Eddy have provided Dr. Niebuhr with material fors his stu1dy of the attitu&-'-thie" modern student toward Christianity. Dr. Neibuhr recently conducted the annual convocation at the University of Wisconsin and delivered the main address. He is one of the secretaries of the Fellowship for a Christian So- cial Order and has spent the last few summers in Europe as their represen- tative. Dr. Niebuhr is now associated with Sherwood Eddy in a campaign to bring before the students of American col- leges and universities the results of these study tours in Europe. He was one of the few ' older men who was chosen to speak at the Interdenomi- national student conference which was held in Evanston last Christmas vacation. In a recent issue of the Atlantic Monthly, he states "in our paradise ofi national security and univ'ersal opu- lence, we have not yet felt the enor- mity of the sins of greed and violence which are corrupting our civilization and which seem to prove the impot- ence of religion." lie further believes that society is completely secularized and moves on by its own forces, which are only remotely affected by religion. Last February, Dr. Niebuhr was the principal speaker at the joint confer- ence of Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A. groups of all the New England col- leges, at which time he spoke on "Needs of Modern Civilization." This Sunday's program will be con- ducted by members of the Student council; Kenneth Kellar, '26, presi- dent of that organization, will be the presiding officer and Will introduce Dr. Niebuhr. Scripture passages will Ile read by George W. Ross, '26, and announcements will be made by Charles Oakman, '26. A mixed quar- tet will sing several numbers, accon- panied by Philip LaRowe, Grad. YTOUTHFUL ARTIST IN MAYFESTII Concert Series Here 'Next Month Bring' Young Musicians I' IALI W jIl tit rrominence HANSON WILL CONDUCT Four relatively youthful artists will be featured on the program, of this year's May Festival, which is to be held May 19 to 22, with four evening concerts anif two matinees, in Hill auditorium. Florence Austral, English dramatic soprano, will be one of the singers. After winning her way to prominence in her native land, she came to this country a year ago and appeared on two occasions in the leading role at the Cincinnati festival and in the same capacity at the North Shore festival at Evanston, Ill. Here, with little ad- vance publicity, she attracted great attention and was obliged to sing sev- eral encores. Just before her return to Great Britain a contract was signed for her appearance in Ann Arbor to sing the role of Elsa in the concert periormance of Lohengrin, as the clos- ing number of the series on Saturday night. Another event of the Festival will be furnished by Howard Hanson, who is called one of the greatest young musicians of the (lay. Trained largely in America, with supplementary train- ing in Europe, in his early twenty's he became recognized as a figure of such promise that the Eastman School of Music chose him as their musical di- rector. His "Lament for Beowulf" will be given its world premiere under thr baton of the composer himself. Two instrumentalists will partici- pate, both of whom are relatively young men: Albert Spaulding and Mischa Levitzki. Levitzki, a pianist, was heard in Hill auditorium at al- most the begininng of his career five or six years ago. Two artists concerts will be includ- ed in the Festival, in both of which the Chicago Symphony orchestra will ap- pear in miscellaneous numbers as well as in the role of accompanist for the opera stars.

Freyberg Places Second Michigan broke into the score col-T umn in the very first race when Capt. Dick Freyberg took second place in the mile run, forcing Kennedy of OhioI State to set a new Conference mark for the event, the Buckeye star win- ning in 4 minutes, 23 2-5 seconds. Freyberg drew the third lane in the first row and took third place go- ing around the first turn, with Ken- nedy in the lead. Freyberg kept his place untilthe fifth lap, when he went into second place. The two leaders opened up quite a lead and finished the 'race by lapping four or five run- ners. The Michigan captain made his bid for first at the start of the final lap, but Kennedy possessed too much re- serve strength. Jung and Reinke of Michigan failed to place, both men being forced to start the race in the rear of the crowd. Hester Wins Dash, Hester, brilliant Wolverine sprinter,j followed Freyberg's feat by capturing first honors in the. 50 yard dash, equalling the Big Ten record for the distance, his time being :05 2-5. Yarnell of Illinois took second place, from Kelly of Michigan, with Beatty of Iowa fourth. All four of the Wolverine sprinters qualified for the semi-finals, Hester, Kelly and Stirling winning their heats, while Voelker took second in his heat. The two latter runners lost by inches in their respective semi- final heats. Kennedy of Wisconsin upset the dope in the quarter mile event when he breasted the tape ahead of Cuhel, of Iowa, Feinsinger, of Michigan, and Roberts, of Iowa, in :514-5. The two Hawkeye runnters were slated to fight it out for first honors, but Kennedy' shot away at the gun and took the lead which he never relinquished. ; Feinsinger got off to a poor start, and was forced to run fourth all the way, but he spurted going around the final turn and passed Roberts for third honors. Werner Breaks World's Mark Chick Werner, of Illinois, and Phin Guthrie, of Ohio State who ran a dead heat in the 75 yard high hurdles at the Illinois relays two weeks ago, settled their controversy tonight when the Illinois athlete beat Guthrie to the tape in the 65 high hurdle race establishing a new woTld's record of :07 5-10. The former record of :073-5 seconds was made by Carl Christiern- son of the Newark, N. J., A. C., com- peting in New York city two years ago this month. Voelker of Michigan showed con-j siderable strength when he finished1 behind the two leaders, taking third place. McGinnis of Wisconsin took] fourth place. Guthrie and Werner tied the record in their respective heats.

Martin of Northwestern captured the half mile event in 1:57 9-10 With Caine, of Indiana second, Erickson, of Wisconsin third, and Cusack, of Chi- cago fourth. Iowa CaptaIn Wins Shot Iowa scored heavily in the shot put event when Captain Dauber, put the shot 46 feet 2 1-2 inches to win first place and Lapp, placed fourth giving the Hawkeyes six points. Lyon of Illinois took second place with a heave of 45 feet 5 1-2 inches. Mu nz of Michigan put the shot 44 feet 11 Inch- es for third place honors. Burg of Chicago bettered last year's mark in the high jump by defeating McGinnins of Wisconsin with a jump of 6 feet 3 inches. McGinnis, last year's Conference high jump cham- pion, placed second with a leap of ( 6 feet 2 inches. Swenson and Mann of Iowa, and Just of Minnesota tied I for third and fourth place honors at 5 feet 11 inches. Iowa lived up to its advanced repu- tation in the mile relay by winning the event in the good time of 3:30.5. Michigan placed second ahead of Wis- consin and Illinois, respectively. Iowa and Michigan were pitted I against each other in the finda sec- tion of the mile relay, and it was evi- dent that the winner of that heat would be awarded the event. Ohlleiser, lead off man of the Michi- gan team, started in third place, be- hind Indiana and Iowa, but he sprint- ed past his two rivals on the last lap, and handed Mueller a four yard lead. Mueller ran a beautiful race, and j handed the baton to Feinsinger who was switched from the anchor'post- tion, with an eight yard lead.
