WILSONj 1 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 DROLL I---------- OATE EL U oS I WANTED V IM U CASH FOR DRAMA STAMPS President Little seems to consider 31 Old{ AN ll PAl that his discouragement of the use of autos by students should be ex- tended to cover his own actions, for ist, will give the following program early Sunday morning there was a or organ compositions in Hill audi- bicycle on his porch, we are told . torium, Wednesday afternoon at 4:15 * * *"o'clock: Alongside there were a couple of Choral ard Fugue (Sonata V)- fine Jack-o-lanterns, to welcome himtI.......................Guilmant1 back to the culture of this educational Liebestraum ..................

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. * * * Reprinted from VANITY FAIR-- "We nominate for the hall of Fame ROLAND HAYES: Because lie Has been acclaimed through America as a great concert tenor; because le brings to his recitals not merely' a lyric voice of great flexibility and beauty, bat also a scholarly under-.
