PIELPS "UNCLE JOE" With the death of "Uncle Joe'' Can- non there ends the most stormy and colorful career in the last fifty years. of national politics. .Often a tstorm center, always a magnetic perponal- ity and incidentally many times over a millionaire, "Uncle Joe was a unique figure, representative though he was of the political pioneers of the intermediate period of the' country's history. He stamped his character in- delibly upon the political history of the last three generations, not because ently his age became more and more evident and he was forced to give up his usual walk for a daily motor ride. For some time Danville has known that "Uncle Joe" had not long to live. A few weeks ago he began to fail quite rapidly and neighbors knew that the end was not far off. Saturday, in the rambling brick mansion from which he went to Congress fifty-three years ago, he fell into a deep sleep and did not awaken. OPEN WARFARE While so much is being printed in' the newspapers about increased strin- gency in enforcement of the prohibi- tion laws, word comes from southern Illinois that two liquor factions are in open warfare. At first these two factions used ordinary methods of battle, shooting from behind trees, riddling each other's homes with ma- chine gun fire from speeding automo- biles, throwing an occasional bomb, and showing a general disregard for law and order. But latest reports show that they have now adopted more modern methods of warfare- the fighters have taken to the air and an aviator has swooped down over the home of one of the gangsters and dropped three air bombs. The de- fenders chased him off with machine gun and rifle fire. What has become of government enforcement of law and order? Some- thing seems to be radically wrong with police organization when mem- bers of two factions of notorious gangsters are able to conduct open warfare, have the audacity to make open statements as to how they in- tend to get even with their enemies,- and this in spite of the fact that their names are well-known and that their arrest would only be a matter of tak- ing sufficient forces properly armed to overcome them. Matters have come to an alarming state when govern- ment is so slow in action as to per- mit such fearless warfare on the part of lawless characters. DO WE KNOW About once or twice every year some thoughtful person commits a ghastly and sensational crime. News papers run columns of copy If the culprit is found; and if he can afford a high priced lawyer they run columns more; and sometimes-this is the re- grettable part-people suspected are tried and convicted by the newspapers and in the minds of the general pub lic long before the jury ever gets the case. It is very detrimental to our so called system of justice to have this happen. Besides the more immediate effect of making it difficult to obtain ani ntelligent jury that is not preju- diced, there i the more subtle an vicious element of forming an over- whelming public opinion against the acused, so that when the decision Is announced a wave of anger is likely to sweep the country. The most re- cent example of this is the present Hall-Mills murder case. It is very possible that the accused is guilty; and by deftly presenting only those facts which would seem to bear this out, the press has created an overwhelming sentiment against the suspect until an acquittal would be greeted by public resentment. No evidence against a person is conclusive until the courts have deem- ed it so. No person is guilty until he is convicted. Our system of justice Is weak enough, without any further attempts to undermine it on the part of the thoughtless press. ACRES OF MATERIAL There have been many comments made and much interest manifested by students, alumni and those inter- ested in religious matters, in the art- icles on The New Testament written by Prof. Henry A. Sanders, of the Latin department, and published re- cently in The Dearborn Independent. The articles are illuminating and the accompanying photographs of docu- ments are educational in themselves. Where did Professor Sanders get the bulk of his material for these art- icles ? The answer is simple: from the various libraries on the University campus. There are acres of material here in William L. Clements library, the University library, and the other minor libraries. It is high grade ma- terial, and the articles of Professor Sanders bear testimony to this. Members of the faculty realize the value of the material here and they take advantage of the various facil- ities. However, there is one unfortu- nate truth we must face. Too few students realize that "knowledge is so near them." They do not find time to investigate and take advantages of the acres of material. The truth is, that many upperclassmen in the Uni- versity do not understand the first principles of delving into these pro- ductivea nrp.C (1Fmterial Q1-A__, (SPECIAL DISPATCH) By Pseudonymeter COLUMBUS, Ohio, Nov. 13.-Amidl a frenzy of cheers for the band parade, ; and with the timer holding his gun in the air to start the game, a clatter of hoofs and thunder of snorts,heralded the entrance of Oscar, the champion equine, who won the Race of the Ages by arriving at the stadium 23 seconds before Admiral Ixso. Oscar came in with a prodigious leap over the end stands (where the students do not sit at O. S. U.), landing squarely on the 50 yard line. The Admiral entered by the main gate, being delayed 24 sec- onds because he tripped over a fresh- man. 4 * * OFFICIAL STATEMENT Oscar qualified as winner of the race by reporting to the janitor of the Sta- dium one split second before the start of the game. As his fit of inebriety at Heidelberg college was not con- sidered an infraction of the rules, the undersigned, as judge of the contest, presented him with the token of vic- tory, the act being greeted by a spon- taneous roar of voices from the stands.

OFFICIAL OMIMENT e President Coolidge would have said if he had been interviewed, "It is - with great pleasure that I learned of my old friend's victory in the race e I have not decided whether I will be a candidate in 1928." The Harvard Lampoon would have said, "This is a great year in the world of sports. First comes Ederle then Tunney, then Lenglen, and now Oscar. Princeton students are al drunk." NO RECEPTION Gov. Victor Donahey of Ohio did not give the reception planned for Oscar last night in the executive mansion.

Francis O'Brian The play is now in rehearsal under the direction of Phyllis Loughton, and with no dramatic events of impor- tance except the Union opera inter- vening, the play should be a com- plete success -at least from the box- office. "Sister Beatrice" is of course i peculiarly adapted for an entirely feminine cast, and with the combina- tion of Phyllis Loughton directing and Minna Miller in the leading role Masques should create their master- piece. Martinez Sierra's "The Cradle Song" was in itself an outstanding production of last year, which means something when the the general tenor of campus plays was extraordinary- "the dramatic renaisaance of the University of Michigan." The plot is familiar to all theater-1 goers. Max Reinhardt has eternally glorified it in "The Miracle" which was the largest spectacle of its kind ever produced. The nun who is per- suaded by her lover to leave the cloister; the 4tatue of the virgin by a divine miracle coming to life and taking the place of the erring sister 1 in the routine of convent life--it is one of the most perfect plots in dra- matic history. There are effects that are going to be hard; even a Rein- hardt million dollars failed in some respects. But the Loughton who has created "Why Worry?" and Comedy Club's more recent success "Tea for , Three". (she is also doing the Junior Girl's Play this year) has a dramatic ' insight that will bring the virgin to . life without insulting the credulty of the audience; and this can be de- pended on. Sister Beatrice on the stage is of course the whole show; and Minna Miller who was a sensa- tion in "Tea for Three" as well as in "The Cradle Song" and as the lead- l ing lady in "Becky Behave" can be trusted for an intelligent interpreta- tion of the erring nun.

His life -was ;ne of never ending activity. Though. born in North :Caro- lina in 1836, the son of a country doc- tor, his family migrated early to In- diana. After an indifferent success as a farmer his',father was drowned and the support of the family fell upon Joe. He started work as a clerk in a grocery store where he remained four years. It was in this store that settlers would gather at night to dis- cuss the burning issues of slavery and national policies. There he learn- ed his first lessons in politics. With the sum of five hundred dollars which he had saved, Cannon entered the Cincinnati Law school, finished his course in three years, and after a short sojourn in indiana, crossed over the line lnt& Illinois, finally settling in Danville where he hung out his shingle. x Following eight years in the Illinois legislature, he was elected to Con- gress in 1873 where he served contin- uously, with the exception of two terms, unitl 1923. As reelection fol- lowed reelection his power grew. He became sneaker of the House in 1904 following Thomas Reed. He ruled with an iron hand for four terms and his downfall was featured by one of the m-ost bitter fights in Congressional history. Since that time his power gradually diminished, but he ever re- mained a tower of strength in the Republican party. At the end of his long career he retired to Danville.

The program is as follows: Overture; to "The Merry Wives of W indsor" .. ............Nicolai Concerto, A minor, Opus 33- .....................Saint-Saens Concerto Grosse, D minor ..Vivaldi In the Convent ............Borodin Coronation March........Saint-Saens During the last three years this or- ganization has been becoming more and more prominent in musical activi- ties. From a rather unimportant and little known group who were con- sistently damned with faint praise Mr. Lockwood has created a definite and well balanced symphony arrangement that has a definite -lace in the musical calendar. Of especial interest will be the first Ann Arbor appearance of Walter Block, a distinguished 'cellist who became a member of the faculty of the School of Music this year. Mr. Bloch has had wide experience both as a soloist and in orchestra work. The personnel of the group has also been increased to include local resi- dents as well as 'nhusic students. The program is especially interest- ing in the choice of numbers, The Saint-Saens "Concerto, A minor" is one of the most popular numbers in this field of music, while the Con- certo Grosse by Vivaldi and the Over- ture to "The Merry Wives of Wind- I sor" by Nicolai have been chosen with the capabilities of the organization in mind; the string work in the latter number is predominant.

Such action should stimulate subscriptions to ROLLS' Stadium Bond Fund. Therefore, fig- uring its value at $50, you have "YET TO RAISE...........$449.20." A.
