UNHERALDED
Mrs. Stephen V. Harkness is dead
in New York City at the age of eighty-
,eight years. In her lifetime, she do-
nated more than $9,000,000 to Yale I
university, $4,000,000 for a medical
center in New York, and a million
more in various gifts.
The first gift to Yale brought about
the now famous Harkness Memorial
quadrangle, a dormitory for senior
students that -is the pride of many
Americans who have no association
with th& u'ifversity.
Her second' gift was used for the
increase of faculty salaries. Mrs.
Harkness contributed $3,000,000 to
this fund' with the stipulation that it
otl'd'become available upon the sub-
scription of $2,000,000 more by other
persons. Yale, as a result, benefited
by $5,000,000.
The site for the medical center will
bring about a great institution, the
advantage of which will come with
time.
Thus passeth another unheralded
name.
THE INIJIHTABLE COLLEGE MAN
College polish has foiled prohibi-
tion agents at Princeton, for Dry
Agent Menninger, of Northern New1
Jersey, claims that his men, attempt-
ing to obtain evidence against campus
liquor venders. are baffled because
they can not impersonate the col-
legiate customer.E
That is one way of looking at thej
situation; another viewpoint, which
apparently has eluded Mr. Men-,
ninger's facile mind, is that there is
very little constitutional violation in,
the places ,-here his men have sought
t.
The latter viewpoint seems rather,
more reasonable than the inability to
imitate the Princeton gradation of
college types, as perhaps Mr. Men-
ninger would .agree.
Michigan, at present plagued by
small, superficial investigations, the
reports of which cause untold damage,
rshould waenmp th c p enf ofi

TO AND FOR
THIE
G , LADIES L
Unless something suddenly steps in
the way again, it looks as if we were
about to discuss the Girls' Number of
ROLLS. The idea is 'this (No Sir,
we're sorry but we can't use anything
right now-we've got to run this stuff
about the women's number here and
now) pardon the interruption, the
idea is this as we said above (No! for
the last time NO!) the idea is that1
we don't see why, if the ladies are
represented in every other depart-
ment of the University except the Stu-
dent Council which is just like having
your name on some honor list-it
doesn't mean anything,-why they
shouldn't be represented in this de-
partment. As far as we know there
has never been a co-ed managing edi-
tor of this column, and so the only
thine \te can do is to announce an all
women's number of ROLLS.
There will be prizes awarded for
1 the best contribution, and others for
second and third. The column Will
appear the last issue before Spring
vacation so that you can take a copy
right home with you and show the
family what' you won.
Please send the contributions in as
soon as possible, as we would like to
have time to judge them carefully.
The judges will be ourselves, Sir Toby
Tiffin, Wfilker Everett, and also the
managing editor of Gargoyle. These.
ourene will decide. In case of at
deadlock the decision will be reached
by the use of a coin. As each con-
tribution will be numbered so that
the committee will not know even
the nom de plume of the sender, thereI
will be no chance of favoritism creep-'
ing in. Please also include your ad--
dress with the contribution in order
that we may send the prize in case
this is necessary in your case.

DRAMA
THE FACULTY CONCERT
A review, by Charles Dearing. 1
Playing before an audience which
refused to become enthused, Albert
Lockwood and Maude Okkelberg,
pianists, assisted by Marian Freeman,
violinist, presented a program vary-
ing in selections from the bravura
style and sophistication of Manuel In-
fante and Arnold Bax to the tradi-
tional Celtic melancholy of Louis
Vuillemin. Of course it is poor taste
for an audience to become boisterous-
ly appreciative of artists who are not
performing under the inspiration of a
contract.
The two-piano presentation by Mrs.
Okkelberg, and Mr. Lockwood of
Rubenstein's Sonata, Op. 12, was
characterized by a recurring and
dominant melody with just enough of
the bombastic to avoid monotony, and
by an originality which set it off in
contrast to much on the modern,
nondescript composition. It is said
that the piece was hastily and badly
written--if so, the transcription for
two pianos has made possible, through
an enlarged tonal effect, an appealing
loveliness, enhanced by ease and pre-
cision of execution.
Along with other revivals comes the
reclamation from obscurity of Jeno
Hubay's violin pieces. They have al-
ways proved popular with audiences
because of their unpretentiousness
and fluency, but quite obviously Mrs.
Freeman found them a little difficult
in places.
The group of Vuillemin, Bax, and
Infante pieces were all originally
written for two pianos and received
their initial Ann Arbor performance
at Sunday's concert. Tradition says
that while Manuel Infante is a "good"
musician, he is not to be numbered
among the brilliant composers of
Spain, but his pieces, "Sentimento"
and "Gracia," as played by Mrs. Ok-
kelberg and Mr. Lockwood, had all
the dash and brilliancy which we
usually associate with the best Span-
ish music.
Piano recitals, free from the agon-
izing gymnatics and exhausting
tactics of the performer, are so scarce
that one could not help but be im-
pressed by the ease, dignity, and sin-
cer4yvith nwich Sunday afternoon's
concert was conducted.
aiY ]PT?"
The performance tomorrow after-
noon at the Whitney theatre of Jesse
Lynch Williams' "Why Not?" by the
Bonstelle company of Detroit is of
special interest for several reasons.
In the first place Mr. Williams is
holder of the fellowship in creative
arts in the University. tIn the second
place "Why Not?" is the companion
play of "Wy Marry?" which was
presented by Masques two weeks ago
at the Mimes' theatre will an all-cam-
pus cast. And finally the general in-
terest evinced in Fernec Molnar's
"The Swan" which was given by Miss
Bonstelle's company some time ago at
the Whitney is sufficient reason for
the production.
"Why Not?", presents a situation
even more unusual than "Why Mar-
ry?" which maintained such a uni-
form standard of excellence during its
five performances two weeks ago. In
"Why Not?" there is a three fold set
of possiblities. In this play there are
perfect people who might be true but
( probably aren't; there is a situation

that might be possible but probably
isn't;'and these impossible people in
this impossible situation are doing
things which people in that situation
' might do but probably wouldn't. Like
"Why Marry?", too, it 'is comedy,
pleasing comedy, with a note of seri-
ousness and truth underneath that
must not be overlooked. And this
combination in the hands of Miss-Bon-
stelle completes a production that
should be interesting and widely ap-
preciated, as well as unique and
whimsical.
The production was secured for the
Ann Arbor performance through the
efforts of the Alumnae council, andj
the proceeds from the play will go
towards the Women's league fund.
Tickets may be obtained at the box
office all day today and tomorrow.

The man we want is graduating in June; he is ambi-
tious and aggressive as shown by outside work done since he
enteked school. He has some knowledge of businss methods
and office management, to which he applies ideas of his own.
His personality is such that he probably has been made a
member of a good fraternity. He must have no inferiority
complex, yet must realize that a college graduate still has a
few minor details to learn. If he is planning to be married
soon, so much the better. To such a man we will pay
whatever he can convince us he is worth to us, up to five
thousand dollars a year. If you are the man we want, your
first letter will show it. Address Box 74, care the Daily.
