There will be award of "M" blankets to senior a 'letes. The freshmen will mer mnarch to South Ferry field, disc their pots, and retirn. In view of the impressive and l standing tradition which Cap Ni represents, The Daily believes t complete arrangements should' made for the occasion. If new t ditions are to be inaugurated, it wo seem that the older ones should also be maintained intact.

Willian/ Archer is a successful critic-so honest a critic that he considers himself a better teacher of the art of play-writing than play- wright. "The Green Goddess" is melodrama without the gadgets nec- essary to effective melodrama-only one real murder and a single res- The program is right when it af-I firms "The Green Goddess" to be a "one-man" play, for one trembles to think of the performance without Reynolds Evans in the role of the Rajah of Ruhk. The rest of the cast is correctly called "supporting," pro- viding rather a decent emotional hub- bub in contrast to the calm suavity of the imperturbable oriental. Mr. Wait and Miss Horine share the few honors that remain after Mr. Evans leaves the stage. With the exception bf Mr. Evans, however, we find little difference between the professionals and the campus dramatic activists in the cast, William Bishop and Robert Wetzel. We have exhausted the cast when we remember the Cockney with the Indiana accent and the rescuing lieu tenant. Perhaps we are too used to Mr. Shuter's excellence in stage design, for with the exception of Mrs. Mer- rick's contribution in the way of or- iental proprieties, there are few nice things to say about the sets. The "cloth-of-silver drop curtain" swings back too quickly allowing the first few minutes of the performance to be lost in the confusion of seat- ing those who came with the suppo- sition that the Rockford player would not be punctual. . Despite the handicap of playing in "the coolest theatre in Ann Arbor," despite the lack of smoothness, which is due (we are told) to the hasty re- cruiting of Ann Arbor talent (which is, however, real talent) the players succeeded in entertaining a full house with what the program calls a re- polished and modernized "old-fash ioned tiriller." * * * Tle First Concert (Wednesday Evening, May 18) Soloist Ernestine Schumann-Ileink, Chicago Symphony Orchestra, Frederick Stock, Conductor Howard, Hanson, Guest Conductor I Overture in D................Hanson "Erda Scene"- "Waltraute Scene" ..........Wagner Ernesine Schumann-Heink II Symphony No. 7 in A Major..... .Beethoven "Heroic Elegy".............,Hanson (Commissioned by the National Committee for the Beethoven Century Anniversary, and presented for a world premiere under the baton of the composer.)
