Italy has filed her objections to the preparation in Jugoslavia territory for a revolutionary incursion into Al- bania with the great powers. Unless the situation grows considerably worse, it is expected that she will take no further action. The Jugoslav Foreign Minister, on the other hand, has offered assurances that his country does not intend to disturb the peace of either-Albania or Italy. Several of the great powers are also exerting their influence to make the Belegrade government check the "comtidiji" activity. The only element of danger lies in the pos- sibility that Italy will not accept the assurances offered by Jugoslavia. ELEVATE THE CHEERLEADER The silver megaphone which will be presented to the Varsity cheerleader before the Cornell track meet tonight, as a gift of the five honorary societies of the University, should materially elevate that office in the eyes of the student body and others. The posi- tion is one the prestige of which is not what it should be as yet; its recognition has been insignificant. The new trophy should do much to- ward fulfilling the objectives. According to the plan under which the silver megaphone is being pre- sented, the trophy will be inscribed each year with the name of the head cheerleader. It will be handed down annually as the new cheerleader is chosen, reposing for display purposes in the trophy cases of Yost Field House. The idea is not new. Other univer- sities have similar awards for the position of Varsity cheerleader. That, however, makes the gift none the less creditable to the donors. CAN WE AFFORD NOT TO? With the approval of the Senate University committe on the removal of the mill tax limitation and .the gen- eral maintenance appropriation the prospects of the passage of both meas- ures seem faiTrly good. The bills are now in the committee on finance and appropriations and it is reported that this body looks favorably upon them. As has been explained, the Univer- sity expenses of maintenance are met by a State mill tax for that purpose. However, there was a limitation of! $3,000,000 set on this fund in 1923, later raised to $3,700,000 in 1925. The removal of this limit will provide about $4,925,000 under the equalized tax values in the state. The appro- priation for the building program is i' continuation of the building pro- gram started by the late President Burton, as a result of the survey made in 1921 of University needs. It is to be hoped that the investiga-' tions of visiting representatives and senators will have shown the -need of the requested appropriations. As President Little has said, the ques- tion is: Can the State not afford to spend the money for such worthy and necessary work as is carried on by the University? PUBLIC PERFORMANCE Tonight the first Junior GirWs' play in the history of the University will make a public appearance outside of Ann Arbor. On the former occasions when the annual production was giv- en in Detroit and Toledo ,several years ago, the two performances vere restricted to women. The Detroit presentation tonight is not intended to establish a precedent.. The receipts will go towards a worthy purpose-the completion of the fund for the proposed Women's League building. If the Junior Girls' play meets with as much favor in the eyes of alumni as invariably does the male produc- tion, the Union Opera, the University will have passed another milestone. OUR CITIZENS Two American aviators are serving1 in the Conservative Nicaraguan army1 against the Liberals. The Liberalst have protested to the State Depart- ment, and the State Department has replied that it will take no measures to rescue the aviators if they fall into1 the hands of the unfriendly army. TH M usic and Drama TEAR GAS }UE C SIED BY SSTUDEN'TS _ _ _ _ _____ Crime waves are old stuff now, but college riots are all the rage. The latest-when we went to press--was one down at Washington and Jeffer- son college, where the police inter- rupted a little argument between the freshmen, whoswere attending a ban- quet, and the sophonmores wno want- ed to attend. But the best part of this little story is the fact that the students were the ones that used tear gas. * * K When the sophomores arrived they found the doors and windows locked, so they proceeded to break the win- dows with bricks, and then toss tear gas bombs through into the banquet hall. That brought the freshmen out to see what was happening outside, and so they had a nice party in th mud. Some uninvited guests arrived-the police-and they got slightly bespat- tered before they could convince the students that mud was to walk through on the campus, but not to throw. * * r Washington police are correspond- ing with Ann Arbor students in an effort to discover just how they man- age to stay in the battle when tear gas is used by the opposition. . * * DOWN THE DIAGONAL "The' Gridiron Banquet," said the Punning Professor yesterday, "is going to be a frost, if it's j true that Robert Frost is com- ing. I I( I THE FACULTY SWIM Forward the faculty race, Swimmers of exquisite grace, Self named as Flounders, they enter- ed the meet. Theirs not to reason why, Theirs but to swim or die. Into their water wings, Into those trusty bags, Into their sole support, Blew their lung-fulls. Off from the edge they fell, Oh but it's hard to tell, Just how they spluttored and splash- ed as they went. Down the long pool they raced, How they that scene did grace; when Into a man's-length lead, Into the foremost place, Into the head of the race, Snuck one professor. Prof s to the left of him, Profs to the right of him, Profs in the rear of him, Grunted and gurgled. His not to lose this race, His but to save his fate, His to escape disgr~e, Felt that high person. Smaller his lead did grow, His stroke and his stride were slow, Well he did come to know, His lead would soon end. So he with his accurate eye, In a desperate ultimate try, With his toe (on the sly) He punctured some water wings. . Dill Dalley. J-HOP FAVORS MAY BE COMING The campus was stirred yesterday by the rumor that the 1927 J-Hop favors were on their way here. This is only a rumor. At a late hour last night the chair- man of the J-Hop favors committee denied any such knowledge. "I have known nothing about the favors all along," he said. The rumor persisted, however, and the J-Hop spokesman intimated that they might arrive within a week or two. "Susch promptness is nothing short of remarkable," he said, "when one remembers that the J-Hop has only been over about a month and a half." Kernel vIct. v ltl a.sill au TONIGHT: The Mimes present "To the Ladies!" by George kaufman andi Marc Connelly in the Mimes theater at 8:30 o'clock. * * * "TO THE LADIES!" Tonight's performance of "To the Ladies!" concludes a run of five nights with a practically sold-out house every night. This establishes 1 almost the season's record for the I box-office in Mimes theater, and at least warrants a later revival. It seems doubtful at present that that can be accomplished without some delay, for Play Production and Direc- tion are presenting "He Who Gets Slapped" on Wednesday and Thurs- day nights of next week, Comedy Club will give "The Trumpet Shall Sound" on Wednesday through Saturday, Mr. McIntyre has secured the services of Harry Lauder for Friday night in the Whitney, and rehearsals will be be- gun soon for "Anna Christie" con- cerning which, an announcement will be made later. However, the enthusiastic patronage countsjfr something and indicates a success of sorts in the production. It perhaps did not reach the artistic ac- clivity of "The Man of Destiny" or "R. U. R.", but it accomplished the intended aim. After all it is the audience that measures the success of a play of this type. For unless there is the proper response in the house, the play can be credited as a failure-which cetainly was not the case in this instance. THE HILLEL FOUNIATION RECITAL A twilight musicale will be prer sented by the muiscal committee of the Hi$lpl Foundation at 4 o'clock Sunday afternoon in the auditorium of University high school. Those who will appear in recital are Louis Gom- I berg, pianist, Dorothy Ornstein, con- tralto, and Feorge Votow, violinist. Miss Ornstein is a student in the School of Music, and has studied in Appleton, Wisconsin,'and in Chicago under Muhlmann. Gomberg, studied under the late Richard Epstein of New York City, and when nine years old received auditions from Percy Grainger and Rachmaninoff. The pro- gram follows: La Fileuse (Spinning Song).... .Jochim Raff Impromptu, in C sharp minor.. .Hugo Rhinehld by Mr. Gomberg Morning ..................S..peaks Who Knows ...................Ball by Miss Ornstein Overture Hungarian Lustspiel.......

In this recital he will use the following scores and orchestra- tions: Moussorgsky's "Siege of Ka- zan" from Boris Goudenev, the "Song of the Flee," and the aria "Fin chan dal vino" from Mozart's Don Juan. The original scores will be provided in every case, since Kozakevitch has availed himself o the privilege ex- tended to Americantartists by the Metropolitan Opera Company is using the Metropolitan library. This new policy was recently put into effect by Lionel Mapleton, official librarian since 1889, and includes those of ac- septed standing, whether they are connected with the Metropolitan or not. Kozakevitch has received favorable comment wherever he has made an appearance during the present sea- son. He sang in Detroit with the De- troit String Quartette, and the Free Press said of him thep: "Here is an- other baritone to scout the exploded fetish of European superiority in tone placement and general artistry." He has studied as artist pupil with Professor Alfred Blackman of Detroit. * * * MCFADDEN'S FLATS Six Reel Apartments Complete- ly Furnished with All Modern Inconveniences. ,- We have in stock ready for delivery nearly all makes of large and portable typewrit- ers.

CHAMPE NANKIN G Foreign nations, particularly Amer- ica, became again vitally involved in the civil war between the Cantonese and Pekin troops when an unknown number of American and British lives were taken by.a mob of undisciplined Nationalist soldiers at Nanking . To protect the Americans yet on shore in that area, British and American gunboats have trained their guns upon the city, and have demanded that all foreigners be delivered to the water- front upon pain of bombardment. Re- cent dispatches indicate that the time for expiration of the ultimatum has been extended, but that the entire sit- uation has been placed in the hands of the British and American naval commanders at Nanking, who have been ordered to act on their own dis- cretion.j The attack was probably the work M of native troops, enthused with the Cantonese success in capturing Shang-, hai, and overcome with the idea of obtaining loot and sweeping aside all resistance i their path.aExcept in a negative sense, the Cantonese com- manders are probably not-responsible.C Dispatches' indicate that Gen. Chian' Kai Shek, one of the Cantonese war l9rds, has already shown his inten- tion of proyiding adequate protection for all foreigners. The position of the responsibility, if it can be placed, however, has little bearing upon the fact that the Amer- icans in the Nanking area must be protected. The promptness of the American and British naval and land forces in protecting the foreigners gathered together on Socony hill is to be commended. Considering their strategic position overlooking the city, their commanders acted wisely in delivering an ultimatum for the safe deliverance of all foreigners in the area. Though Nanking is ordi-; narily considered an undefended city, its bombardment would be fully jus- tified if it was necessary to save the lives of neutrals confined in the area. Apparently, the situation is a localJ one. Though the presence of foreign troops in Shanghai has turned out to be quite fortunate in several instances, 'the advance of the Cantonese has been 1 effectedwithout serious menace to 010 irra, On rc, T' nra ic nn rpan cnn to SALE OF University School of Music BEGINS I SAT.
