land on the invitation of The Daily
Mail which is paying all their ex-
penses and their usual salaries while
they are here. Their trip. will include
visits to the larger industrial centers.
As one of them said they are perhaps
the first who really put down their
tools, threw off their overalls, and
came to see American methods of
production for themselves.
The workmen could hardly under-
stand how our industries could pay
higher wages and still undersell the
European market on the same pro-
duct. They expressed great surpriseI
at what they considered close co-
operation between operator and
worker. They were apparently
astounded at the high wages which
they attributed to mass production
and standardization as against 'their
English theory of good workmanship
based upon the individual.
Undoubtedly the men will carry
back valuable ideas gleaned from the
trip to their employers and fellow1
workers. If they can materially as-I
sist in the application of the better
features of American industrial
methods to their own individualistic
system when they return, then their
mission will have been a successful
one and the Daily Mail be commended
for sponsoring the project.

PORTO RICAN POLITICS
In The Daily of March 18 we read
what purports to be an interview of
a native student as to a possible
revolution in Porto Rico. He claims
an uprising unlikely. I happen to be
one of the odd fish cast up by the
Caribbean Sea on that island, ad
call it my home.
Mr. Amadeo states that "the island
does not want her independence." In
this he is grossly mistaken. Porto
Rico wants her independence because
the United States has not shown pro-
per guardianship over her possession.
The people are disgusted with the
governors appointed by the. President
for a four year sojourn on the island.
They charge 'the present governor
with letting crooked politicians get
away with their money.

Due to the weather conditions pre-f
valent in these parts, all classes for1
the week should be cancelled in
order to save other students from get-
ting grippe, according to reports is-
sued by E. Hamilton Mipp, noted crew
mentor.
. "So many students have it now," he
said, "that it would seem as if it
would hit even the faculty soon. In
this case so many classes would have'
to be given bolts that the morale of
the entire student body would be ruin-
ed. In order to avoid this the only
thing to do is to stop all classes until
the weather clears off. (And pray for
a week of rain.-Editor's note) This
seems the only sane thing to do."

HIS CAREER
"I feel that that I have been vindi-
cated," said the Majestic bandit,
whose name is withheld for diplo-
matic reasons, when interviewed yes-
terday by a Rolls' reporter in regard
the ballot taken by rhetoric classes re-
cently. The vote showed that out of
97 students only 27 hope that the
hold-up man will be caught.
"As for the 39 that said they didn't
care whether I was caught or not,
I feel it my duty to society to con-
vince them that I deserve my free-
dom. It seems that the "sob sisters"
haven't spread enough oil in this
neighborhood. Do these students re-
alize that I have served ten years of
apprenticeship in the small town and
am now ready to enter "big time"
work in Chicago? Would they have
my career, nipped in the bud? A per-
fect futute spoiled by the Ann Arbo'r
police force? No! Never!"
The bandit denied that he believed
that any of the police force would
have voted in sympathy with him had
the ballot been a city wide one. "I
would say, from their actions," he
said, "that they would have voted in
the don't care group."1

Dear Tiff:
Well, we were wrong about "Why
Marry." It is just a common ordinary
satire on home life, as I saw it. No
dread influences at work there. But
you were absolutely in error when
you insinuated that I wrote you that
letter to give the dam' show more
publicity. What, I ask you, what in-
terest should I have in a coed organi-
zation's dramatic activities? I, whose
extra curricular work has been limit-
ed to writing contribs for Rolls?
But to return to the subject of the
first play ever to receive the Pu
litizer Prize. I wrote you that last
letter, as I want to emphasize, in a
purely campaigning spirit. My re-
marks were misinterpreted, so I
withheld further comment until after

THE FACULTY CONCERT
A review, by Charles Dearing.
The Sunday afternoon concert was
full of surprises-a large audience,
a caprice, an aria, and even a piano
concerto. The word "band" ordi-
narily conjures up in our minds, ideas
of blatant and brassy noises, but the
Michigan band performed its part of
the program with a minimum of va-
grant squawks and incongruous toots.
With some little coaxing Mr. Wilson
brought the players safely through
the less bombastic selections, but re-
ceived more spontaneous response in
the characteristic military airs, espe-
cially in the March, "United Amer
ica."
Mrs. Konold's singing of the Aria,
"Depuis le Jour" from "Louise" acted
as a shock absorber for the band se-
lections, and her group of lighter
songs completed the synthetic nature
of the program.
Another surprise came in the form
of an old subje.t performed in a novel
way. There seems Yo be more genuine
melody in the "Poet and Peasant"
Overture than in any of its companion
pieces, and Stewart Churchill with
his marimbaphone succeeded in find-
ing 'more of that melody than is
brought out by the ordinary musician.
, To complete the program, there was
a Beethoven-Liszt Fantasia from
"Ruins of Athens," arranged for mili-
tary band by Wilfred Wilson, with Al-
bert Lockwood playing the piano con-
certo. Needless to say, Mr. Lock-
wood's playing was delightful.
For some reason I still associate
bands with football games and circus
parades.

THE CRTIClS
The reviews of the Junior Girls'
play, "Becky Behave," which opens
this evening in the Whitney theatre,
will be written as follows;
Tuesday evening, Robert Hender-
son; Wednesday evening, Norma
Mansfield; Thursday evening, Calvin
Patterson; Friday evening, Leonard
Hall.
AMEN!
The following criticism, published
in the March 20 issue of The Bill-
board, will be of interest to the boy's
many Ann Arbor friends (quotha!):
IIONEL (MIKE) AMES
"Unlike most other acts o its na-
ture, this one does not keep the iden-
tity of the player a secret. He comes
out first 'in person'-that is, a the
engaging, handsome and , pershable
young man that he is. In a brief in-
troductory talk he informs the audi-
ence that he left the University of
Michigan, where he played 'leading
lady' in the varsity shows, while
studying engineering, to go on the
stage.
"While Mike, as he came to be
known to all Ann Arbor, is changing,
a short film is exhibited in which he
is shown as various types of female
movie actresses. Though the gowns
in this short picture were beautiful,
and the makeup most realistic, they
are all surpassed, nevertheless, by the
numbers in the offering that followed.
It would take a woman reviewer to
do justice to the description of the
various gowns. All a poor masculine
writer can say is that they were
gorgeous-and then some!
"Lest one get the impression that
he depends upon the exhibition of his
wardrobe to get by in vaudeville, it
must hastily be added that the gowns
are only a means, together with his
mannerisms and bearing and makeup
in general, of putting across some
really high class impersonations,
which, in themselves, were entertain-

ing. His voice is kind of weak, yet,
withal, carries the semblance of
femininity and the songs are all very
well sold.
"Paul Bernard, accompanying atI
the piano, does a few 'good numbers
himself, one a popular song, which
also gets a good hand. He is also
a good straight for Ames in getting
some good comedy over. They havej
some pretty clever lines in their pat-I
ter, and Mike has a sense of comedy
which stands him in good stead.
"The setting is splendid, making a
good background for the many gowns!
seen in the course of the act. An
offering that has all the ingredients of
a big time turn."

ECONOMICS BUILDING
FOUND BY EXPEDITION
Ann Arbor, U. S. A. The Earth.
Special to Rolls)-Buried under 20
feet of sand, the Economics building
of the university which existed here
centu'ries ago was discovered by Rolls'
Own Expedition today. The frame
building was in a well-preserved
state, despite its wooden construc-
tion.
Although the roof had caved in,
and the walls were leaning at a dan-
gerous angle, the building is believed
to be in about the condition it was
when deserted by the university in
2014.
Our historian with the expedition
believes that this building is typical
of the university structures of that
day. The finding of this prominent!
building in such a poor condition
proves, it is believed, that architec-
ture in the 21st century was in a very

Kresge's is a dignified business. It meets the
everyday human needs-of folks everywhere.
The S. S. Kresge Company has developed the
art of retail store-keeping to the point where
it may well be termed a science. Merchandise
of standard grade is sold in Kresge stores-but
in such quantities that prices are consistently
lower than in stores that lack the organization
and resources of a great national institution.
There are already more than three hundred
stores in the Kresge chain- and new ones are
being added constantly. For these new stores
we shall need managers-competent men,
thoroughly experienced -and Kresge-trained.
A limited number of young men-college men
of good character and promise-will be given
the opportunity to train for these positions.
Write at once and arrangements will be made
for you to meet a man from your own college
who is now a Kresge representative. He will
give you complete information.
