WELCOME ILLINI
Since 1898 Michigan and Ill.
non have met on the gridiron
° e 1 jen ,tjmes. Since that first
xane, twenty-eight- years ago, in
the days of turtle neck sweaters
V and bulldog shoes, the Wolverines
and Indians have continued to
hittle on the gridiron, each time
with increasing rivalry and friend-
liness. The spirit manifested in
those early games has been tra-
ditionally carried on. The contest
today will be no less keenly fought
than those of a quarter century
ago. Welcome again Illini!

~iital duty of a citizen-that ol
sv. th #isez faire attitude of
the average university voter, accord.
n i O opinion of the leaders in
politics. He is intelligent in his class
rooms, they say, but when it comes to
practicing his intelligent and educat-
ed vote at the polls he usually taker
membership in the "Let George Do It.
Club." Such an opinion has con-
s;i embO}'. truthfulness, and as to what
high degree of veracity it is based
upon, we are not doubtful.
Tin:' <,a President Coolidge broad-
cast throughout the nation his dis-
approval of the laxity of the Amer-
scan voter. "Criminal action and for-
feit of citizenship," Coolidge declared,
"have been offered as drastic mean-!
to et out the vote, but such punish-
ment would be an insult to the true
American citizen." These proposas
for awakening the voter are indeed
drastic, but would be returning the
S olt that lax voters cast upon Amer-
ican citizenship when they show their
hindifference to the representation of
their democracy.
Presitd nt Coolidge issued such
s when he 'becamealarmed
over the percentage of voters that
went to the polls at the last presiden
tial election. which was only fifty per
cent of the entire voting population.
Such warnings were issued to the
public at large where the majority
vote is the layman's who is meagrely
educated. When such alarms arise
in viewing the laxity of the general
public in voting, there should be no
end to the alarms aroused -when view-
ing the indifference of the educated
college vote. At Michigan consider-
ably less than half of the collegiate
vote turned out at the last presidential

office be representative of the entire
nation. An unrepresentative democ-
racy-that is cause for alarm.
The Green-Groesbeck race for the
Republican nomination was widely
and expensively advertised to be of
enough interest to the majority of the
Michigan Republican voters so that it
would be worth the energy necessary
to carry them to the polls. But recent
statistics show that less than forty
per cent of the Republican voting
population visited the polls last Sep-
tember. Such further evidence of the
laxity of the voter, especially the
Michigan voter, makes one sincerely
doubt the veracity of Lincoln's famous
words: "of the people, by the people,
and for the people."
Last week the University voters had
an opportunity to gauge the Republi-
can candidate for the governorship of
the state. The voters on the campus
were given opportunity to apply their
ideals of god representation while
judging Mr. Green. Furthermore,
they will be given the greatest oppor-
tunity of all when in November the
polls will be opened for them to ex-
press the ideas and knowledge con-
sumed in political classrooms. Stu-
dents of the voting age can register
at the present time at various parts
of the campus thus enabling them to
voice their intelligent, vote. And thus
enabling them, by a respectable rep-
resentation of the voting population
on the campus, to prove to political
leaders as well as editorial writers
that our democracy is not as yet un-
representable.
CHURCH AND STATE
It is exceedingly difficult to under-
stand how the Methodis church, in a
nation whose citizens believe univers-
ally in the separation of church and
state, permits its Board of Temper-
ance, Prohibition, and Public Morals
in Washington to continue to place
pressure on the country's legislators,
backing up its demands with direct
or indirect political coercion. This
the Board has notoriously done, is
doing, and will probably continue to
do, unless prevented.
The purpose of the institution,
which has its offices in the shadow of
the Senate office building, has been
defended as being to "lift up a stand-
ard in the most influential place it
can be planted which will indicate
what the Methodists believe in and
stand for in reference to the teaching
of temperance and its necessity for
the public welfare of the United States
and the world-a standard of prohit
bition." All of which sounds very
well. But the Board has fergotten
its purpose. Either by direct or in-
direct threats of political defeat the
Board has used its millions of Meth-
odist voters as a dominating power
to put its thumb upon more than one
Senator or Representative. Back of
this threat of political defeat lies a
tremendous force. Bishop Leonard
of New York state has even openly
declared that no loyal Methodist
should vote for a candidate who was
opposed to prohibition.
Great numbers of the Methodist
:hemselves think the Temperance
Board is uncalled for, is usurping
power, and ought to be abolished as
Inimical to American conceptions of
religious and political freedom. Men
are never entirely free from the vari-
ous influences, good and bad, which
work upon them, but as far as possible
legislators ought to be able to act ac-
cording to what they themselves think
the best interests of the nation-and
.Pot what a group of powerful eccles-

iastics may "suggest" or demand.
QUEEN MARIE
Thee days ago Queen Marie of Rou-
mania kissed a three year old baby,
and headlines were written, and col-
umns printed, and in a few hours+
every soul on the greatbNorth Ameri-
can continent knew about it. Two
days ago she looked at New York's
skyline, and the same thing was re-
peated. Then she appeared at a for-
mal reception wearing jewels and
again the wires were weighed down
heavy with tales of the immense event.
It is nothing against a person to be
the wife of a man who is theoretically
head of a Balkan state, and America
is glad to have as a visitor anyone
who comes on a friendly mission; but
from the way the press agents have
reacted one would almost draw the
conclusion that a pretty middle aged
woman was such a rarity in this coun-
try that any odd specimen is worth
pages of advertisement. o
There is no point in all this more
or less maudlin front, page publicity
for the Queen of Roumania; she does
not seek a movie contract and she is
not a successful channel swimmer. If
she is to be treated in a dignified and
respectable manner as all of our
guests ought to be treated, there is no
reason for anything more than digni-
fled and courteous statements as to

WELCOME STUDENTS
We welcome you today to our fine
end stands and curves. There is
nothing like them in the whole coun
try. You are indeed welcome to those
seats. But, remember, students, you
are here only because we couldn't sel
all the tickets to alumni-especially
the seats you occupy. So keep the
proper attitude at all times.

The customer is always right. I
an alumnus wants your seat, by al
means give it to him. When alumn
enter your stands (by mistake) show
the proper respect due them. Remov
the headgear and remain standin

THE SIGNALS
If Illinois scores in today's gamn
the new will be made known to stu
dents by the following signal: re
flares will be set off from the top o
the press box. One for each poin
made. Michigan's scores will be re
ported in green lights, with one ligh

for each seven points.
In case Michigan makes a field goa
no lights will be displayed as th
minor points will have to be disre
garded in order to save money, sinu
these flares are going to cost quite,
bit. .But you can get a general idez
of the progress of the game by watch
ing these signals.
