It is indeed a problem. Ten mil-
lion scrappers -and no place for them
to scrap. The safest way, it seems to
us, is to arbitrate thus: Let the lead-
ers get together and agree in an
amicable way that the same number
shall be bumped off on each side. This
is a rather sanguinary way of settling
things, but after all, it will cause con-
siderably less loss of property. But
will it settle anything?

THUVRSDAY, MAY 6, 1926
Might Editor-THOMAS V. KOYKKA
"President Wilson was betrayed
by Colonel House, who was pri-
marily responsible for the down-
fall of the war president's ideals ;
and hopes after the Paris confer-
ence and was the evil genius of
the late president. Secretary of
State Lansing also aided in nulli-
fying the acts of Mr. Wilson.
When the President returned to
America both D ouse and Lansing
got together with1 Clemenceau and
Balfour, the most reactionary
statesmen in England, and this
little group then undid all the
brilliant work of the previous
session and framed the ground-
word of the Versailles treaty,
which was passed on the old idea
of a separate military settlement,
according to the dictates of Mar-
shal Foch."-Stanton Coit of Lon-
don before the Ethical Culture
Society of Philadelphia.
REGISTER
President Coolidge, speaking be-
fore the Daughters of the American
Rtevolution, declared that the ballot
box is the heart of a democratic gov-
ernment and that American laxity at
the polls would lead to the dest'ruc-
tion of such a governing system. To-
day and tomorrow the Student council
will hold registration days in prepar-
.tion for the campus elections- the
forerunner and trainig-school for the
national elections.
Habits formed in college should in-
fluence the actions of the future citi-
Yen, and if the future citizen must
vote to perpetuate democratic govern-
anent, the college man should .vote
today. The less desirable factions
and political combines on the campus'
will see to it that their members are
registered, but their influence will be
small if the mass of students prepare;
1o vota for qandidates who have earn-
1'd positions. Lack of interest in stu-
dent government leads to poor gov-
ernment, and reflects back directly on
those who have neglected to fulfill
their obligations at the polls.
Students who have not registered
will not be allowed to vote. Every
Michigan man-and woman-should
have his or her name on the list of
those eligible to cast a ballot on
'May 12.

ity in which he has somehow injected
more romance than the giddiest mu-
sical comedy ever achieves. But one
wonders a deal about this cast, pro-
claimed as real bruisers picked out
from Phi Beta Kappa and the Daily
and a few other places, announced as
types not actors, supposed to be pick-
ed up almost from the streets.
If Mimes and Mr. Shuter can pick
up this sort of stuff from the street
they should go into the business per-
manently. These fellows had some-
thing that no other cast has had this
year, a facile, inevitable way of slip-
ping into their parts and being valu-l
able if only as a background. They
had everything the play gave them;
unforced song good enough to be pro-
longed, which is unusual in campus
theatre, several effective fights, friend-
ly of course and only for entertain-
ment but mighty good entertainment,;
sailor drunkenness without seeming,
effort, mob scenes without loss of
realism, and each following the other
without a break.
Ordinarily that would have been
enough. But ' to show that theyI
weren't lost when separated they went
on to show "Bound East for Cardiff"
with its extenuated tragedy and shook
all that was in it out until the end
was almost a physical effort in the
audience. And the surprising thing is
that the men who carried the whole
thing were new; Lorain Norton as'
"Yank," Donald Lyons as "Driscoll,"
Abraham Sachs, Richard Woellhaf,
Leonard Hall. Where did Mimes find
them-still on the street.
So much for superlatives. The first
play is shocking enough to satisfy the
promises of the advertising, it finds
one or two gaps. But on the whole
the laughs come where they should,
there isn't much to blush about even
if blushes could be seen. The second
play has more than enough of the
other sort of thing to satisfy the most
rabid uplifter of campus morals. The
contrast is striking.
"S. S. Glencairn" is unusual in thatj
it has somehow escaped the polite
polished sort of thing that is so often
evident in campus dramatics.
