DEFEAT LESS DISGRACE
The unbeaten football team repre-
senting the United States Naval Aca-
demy has been victorious over the
hitherto unbeaten team of the Uni-
versity of Michigan. The victory was
by the safe margin of ten points, ten
points hard earned but well-deserved
on the part.of the Navy gridmen. To
the Navy goes the credit of having
beaten one of the strongest teams of
the Middle West; to her goes the
praise for having turned the tables
after having suffered defeat at the
hands of the Yostmen last year.
Both teams fought hard; each did
its best for the institution which it
represented, but as is usual in any
form of contest, one team had to lose.
Last year the 4 ry; was a good loser;
she displayed the same type of spirit
in defeat that h; saturday was pres-
ent in her victory. Michigan men and
women cannot but help admire the
Navy for the spirxt which she has al-
ways evidenced, and any true Michi-
gan student or supporter will give no
alibi for the recent -defeat. The Navy
played the better game of football
and was victorious and to the Navy
toomuch credit cannot be given.
There have been many reasons and
theories advanced for Michigan's de-
feat, among them being over-confl-
dence. Whether this was responsible
or not is difficult to ascertain, but a
jolt once in awhile is a good thing.
and Michigan may be expected to have
bitter chances to be unbeaten during
the remainder of the season thap she
would have had otherwise. Each mem-
ber of the team will enter future con-
tests with the same fighting spirit
which he had in the Navy contest and
with an even greater determination
to win. Defeat is not necessarily dis-
grace, and defeat by the Navy in a
contest such as the recent one is an
honor, not a disgrace. We are proud
of our Michigan team-and we are
proud of the Navy.
CARRY ON!
Throughout America as well as
numerous other countries, the un-
timely death of Prof. William J. Hus-
sey is being mourned by his associ-
ates, his pupils, and by those who
were familiar with the important
work he was doing, as the passing of
a true and beloved friend and a gifted
and di. inguished scientist.
In th" years that he has painstak-
ingly and skillfully pursued his scien-
tific career, Professor Hussey won the
respect and love of all who knew him
and came to fill such a large place in
to the memory of this man than could
be offered in any other way. Comple-
tion of the work to which he was so
firmly devoted will honort him far
more than eulogies or carved stone.
To his associates, his passing brings
the message-"Carry On!"
CURTAIN
Fifty-two years ago in a small Wis-
consin town Pastor Meyer Samuel
Weiss was informed of the birth of a
seventh son, later christened Eric.
Seven years later Pastor Weiss was
again informed that the seventh son
was minus five teeth as result of an
attempted imitation of a rope walker.
Eric later walked the rope. He was
that kind. Seven years later when a
dime museum blew into town Eric
blew out with it. He was a born
showman.
Eric always had a hero. First it
was the rope walker, then an acrobat,
then a magician. These he came to
surpass at their own game . He be-
came interested in spiritualism, learn-
ed from the inside how gullibles or
sincere believers were being duped,
tricked, and fleeced. This became his
forte-the exposure of spiritualistic
fakery.
Traveling for years on the road,
Weiss was unable to get on Broadway.
Finding the back door locked, Weiss
came in through the front. He first
conquered Europe-then took Broad-
way. An acknewledged success in his
field, he turned again to spiritualism.
For years he exposed fake mediums
all over the world. He made a stand-
ing offer of ten thousand dollars for
any spiritualistic phenomenon which
he couldnot prove sto be of human
origin. The offer was never taken.
One of Weiss' most famous tricks
was an escape from a bronze casket.
Whimsically, he often expressed the
wish that he be buried in the old stage
prop casket. Then with tragic sud-
denness, Weiss died Sunday in Detroit
as the result of a chance 'accident.
Death closed a most colorful and use-
ful career.rIt was the end of a mod-
ern Jongleur, known to millions as
Houdini._
SUPPORT FOR EDUCATORS
For those interested in the progress
of institutions of higher learning, it
is interesting to note that prominent
men in other fields are supporting
such educational reforms as more
rigid requirements for matriculation,
and greater personal contact between
the faculty and the student body. In
a recent address, Dr. Hubert Work,
secretary of the interior, announced
himself 'in favor of limitation of "the
privileges of learning by processes of
exclusion," adding that "the college
should be no longer a possible refuge
for the indolent, but rather an ad-
vanced school for the aristocracy of
mind and morals to which intellect
and habit of industry shall be prere-
quisites for admission."
Advocacy of educational advances
by such leaders throughout the coun-
try may be welcomed in educational
circles as assistance in carrying the
new ideas to the citizens on whose
support much depends.
PERSISTANCE
Beneath the placid though bluster-
ing surface of the country called Italy
and the man who rules it, much is
happening. There may be gigantic
military reviews and stirring speeches
and thousands of illiterate black
shirts cheering themselves hoarse
when the Duce modestly admits that
he is the greatest man in the world;
but all these facts are belied by a
much more subtle and significant
series of events-there have been six
attempts on the life of the Dictator i
in four years.
Thus far all efforts in this line have
failed; but time may alter things;
and after all Italy is a civilized coun-
try and Mussolini is a dictator, which
are contradictory facts . It may be
true that the nation, on the surface,
is the picture of undivided loyalty but
when the great national sport, is as-
sassinating the premier, there is an
undercurrent of thought somewhere
that is not entirely favorable to him.
How long Mussolini will be able to
keep this rising resentment suppres-
sed is a matter of conjecture. Stiff
prison sentences and suppression
have merely kept the spirit below theI
surface; but plots do not develop inI
a day or in the mind of a single in-
dividual . There were no plots on
Mussolini's life in 1922, his first year
of power. In 1923 there was one, and
again in 1924. In 1925 there were two
and thus far this year there have1
been three; all of them can't fail;
some day someone will find his mark

LOST THE LOCOMOTIVE
In justice to those valiants who took
the appeal of the Student council to
heart and went down to meet the
train Sunday morning, we should ex-
plain that the engineer of the special
bet his locomotive against a horse
and buggy on Michigan, and after the
game it took four hours to find an-
other engine. The Middies had thrown
themall into the Baltimore river in
celebration.

considered as a whole is the best son-
ata by that musician; the last move-
ment is ranked 'by some as the best
single movement written by him. It
is a double fugue, the theme of the
choral being heard later in the second
theme of the fugue, working the en-
tire number into a tremendous climax.
For technique, the Georg Schumann
Passacaglia and Finale is the most in-
teresting composition of the after-
noon; the Robert Schumann Sketch
in D flat is from a set of sketches
written for pedal piano; and the
Liebestraum by Liszt is too well
known to merit comment.

Ethel Barrymore will be presented

-Maugham's new comedy, by the
Charles Frohman company in the New I
Detroit Opera house in Detroit for
the week beginning Monday night,

the return of Ethel Barrymore to the
Frohman management after a brief
period with other producers; and it

of part which allows her display
her gift of charming comedy--com-
edy with a serious dramatic under-
current to bear out the Barrymore
tradition.

crisis which comes to the wife of an
able and successful London surgeon
