I wonder if either Mr. Hayes or his mother really realizes the position to which he has attained despite the barriers which poverty and convention placed in his way. I thihk that it would be no exaggeration to say that in certain respects, he is the greatest lyric tenor singing to- day. Martinelli and Lauri Volpi, lusty, rib-cracking tenors, both of them, can outshout him; he equals Gigli in everything save sheer voice. As a matter of style, he surpasses anything that has been heard here . j.1 0Pd v ( / .

PHELPS SECOND SEMESTER ELECTIONS One'of Michigan's long standing tra- ditions, along with the fall games and the wearing of the pot by freshmen, has been that the registration and election of courses for the second se- mester should be accompanied by the maximum of delay, confusion, and, general disruption. Elections have been hastily made either during the first week of the semester, to the lossl of that week for study, or else during the examination period when students are preparing for finals. The system or lack of it, has been a loose cog in the educational machinery. Many other universities have a sec- ond semester elections period im-, mediately following the holiday period which has been found successful in solving the problem. During a two week period students call at their con- venience at the university offices to secure an appointment with their clas- sifications advisor, meet him at the hour scheduled, and decide upon the courses jo be taken in the second term. Those students whose curri- culum does not require the committee to pass upon it, make their schedulesj themselves in the usual way . But an hour or two is required in the process and unavoidable changes can be made later.j Why could not the University set a similar two week period sometime be- tween the holiday vacation and the final examination when those studentsj who must have the consent of the com- mittee and those who are permitted to make their own elections would be able to get this work out of the way? With two weeks time no student would be too rushed to perform the task. I The fact that the first semester marks are not yet known means little, for they have never been available at elections time in the past. Some suchG plan of an extended election periodj in the days following the Christmas vacation would do much to eliminate the present confusion and smooth the path of student and faculty member! OTHER WAYS "Wanted - More Football" says President Little in his article in Thursday's Chimes. "You bet your life-we're all for it," say Michigan students, "but, we don't like your methods; there are too many points against them." There are points in favor of the new "Home-and-home" idea, as every student will admit, but the main trou- ble is that it seems to break up the real interest in collegiate football. Two varsities instead of one, half staying at home and half off playing some place else, seems to completely disrupt the sport. However, some- thing must be done to relieve the present situation. In the Pacific Coast Conference, as in the Big Ten, Freshmen are not al- lowed to participate in Conference Varsity football, however, often, ' Freshman games are played at home when the varsity is traveling. Why couldn't this idea be applied to our problem. If worst comes to worst, have an upperclassmen and a lower classmen team. This answers the ob-I jections on both sides. Adopting President Little's order of I presentation, The number of players would be increased, more than dou- bled, in fact, allowing for second teams to scrimmage in practice with their respective groups. Two coaches would be developed and the head coach would still hold the upper hand. Economy for Students. True, certain students would follow the Var- sity or upperclass team, but regard- I less there would always be a certain number who would leave by the "Home and Home System." Relief of Seating Situation. Students might have a chance to see at least one game a season from inside the one- yard lines. Weakening of professional 'football as an influence on college sport. Professional football will con- tinue to exist regardless of the Big Ten or any other action by colleges, however, two years of Varsity com- petition will cut down the number of three year-All-American stars and turn out a greater number of Varsity players each year. POSSIBLE OBJECTIONS. (To the Home and Home Idea. Used here to show comparative advantages.) "Re- ceipts will fall off." Most all students would attend the underclass games and the income from Varsity contests would not be materially changed. The fact that we had to see the season's games this year through the goal-, posts didn't have any effect. 'fIt may be difficult to fill the large stadiuni and so help to finance them."
