THE UNION AMENDMENTS
The favorable action on the new
amendments to the constitution of the
Union, taken by an overwhelming ma-
jority of the members voting Tuesday
night, is extremely gratifying to those
who have the interests of that or-
ganization close at heart. The simpli-
fication of the administration of the
Union frm the previous two boards
in control with their divided powers
and responsibilities, to the newly cre-
ated single board cannot help but re-
sult in a higher measure of efficiency
for the whole managemnent of the
building and its functions, and a con-
sequent multiplication of its benefits.
ONE STEP AHEAD
Undergraduate flying, long pro-
hibited by Oxford university authori-
ties, has now been agreed to under
adequate standards, and flying is re-
ported to be in full swing on an im-
provised field 12 miles north of the
university grounds in England. Three
planes have been provided by the air 
ministry for the use of the Oxford
university air squadron, and the aero-
drome arrangement provides for the
instruction of 10 undergraduate menm-
bers cach day.
The British air minuistry bars prac-
lically the whole ost of the proposed
plan, which is somewhat revolution-
ary in the educational field. By limit- I
ing the cost to the undergraduate.
aviator to less than $5, the aeronau-
tical training has been made available.
to all students interested in the mod-
ern art of flying.
While the step is undeniably far
ahead of any other such projects in
modern colleges and universities,
there is some doubt as to whether it
will prove to be wholly practicable.
Aviation has not vet reached the stage
where it may be safely undertaken by'
the general public, and any procedure
which endangers the lives of the stu-
dnts shou'd be closely guarded. How-
c':; ,h 1b proj'2ct is one to be watched
with interest by other educational in-
stitutions.
One of the most-harassing but
least-discussed problems on the cam-1
Jaus right now is whether the men
vill have to enter the new Women's
League building through the basement
or not.

REGARDING UNIVERSITY
COLLEGE
February 28, 1928.
To the Editor:
We must express our appreciation,
before making a reply, of the gentle-
manly spirit with which Mr.Brownell
answered our communication with re-
gard to the University college. It
was a pleasure to read it. We can't
help but feel that frank 1iscussion
of our viewpoints will be very bene-
ficial in clarifying the atmosphere
which is so clouded at this time.
Generalizing upon that communica-
tion, It seems to us that it is ex-
tremely unfortunate that such a mis-
understanding exists among other
students and faculty and adiinistra-
tion officials with regard t the aims,
ideals, and desires of o own fac-
ulty and studeAts. It doesn't exist
in a spirit of antagonism; it is per-
fectly sincere criticism, the seeds of
whic'h have been sproutng for many
years last.
Criticisms Unjustified
Time and time again, especially
since the University college has been
proposed, many statements have been
issued, commenting-some of them
rather pointedly-upon the segregat-
ing spirit, the lack of cooperation, the
hostile attitude toward other schools,
and the spirit of selfishness in gen-
eral, which are said to animate the
Engineering college. When analyzed
carefully, the accusations are exceed-
ingly unjustified.
We do not doubt that Mr. Brownell
really believes that the Engineering
college considers the University of
Michigan something secondary to it-
self, and, taking into consideration
the light in which the Engineering
college has often been represented in
the last two years, t is not surprising
that his belief does exist, since he is
in another college, and therefore lack-
ing the background to enable him to
understand true conditions here.
Has No Segregation Spirit
As a matter of fact, there is no col-
lege upon this campus, which, in
either its faculty or student bodies,
has a stronger spirit of loyalty or a
greater love of Michigan as a Univer-
sity, representing a cooperating union
of several different colleges. The
Engineering college has not a spirit
of antagonism toward the rest of the
University; it has not a spirit of seg-
regation. There has been no proposal
or suggestion made by the administra-
tion or by another college, which has
not received the earnest consideration
and sincere interest of the engineering
faculty and of the engineering student
body, when the latter has been aware
of such being done. This spirit has
actuated every contact betweei this
college and the rest of the University.
Let us make an example of Fresh-
man Week. At the time this was pro-
posed, the engineering faculty did not
believe that conditions here at all
necessitated such an undertaking,
but, nevertheless, every effort was 
made to try it out in cooperation with
the rest of the University. It is a mat-4
ter of record that no college entered
into the program more whole-hearted-'

ly than did this one. Were there any
assurance that the Engineering col-
lege could drop out of the University
college after one or two years' experi-
inent, we have little doubt but thatI
the proposal would be considered
much more favorably than it is at this
time. Perhaps we are mistaken in
that, but there have been few things
that our faculty have been unwilling
to try out and help the University in,
were they assured they could drop
out if they found it unwise to con-j
tinue. Just at present, it seems as if
the Engincering college is not being
asked to cooperate. It has virtually
been told to accept something which
it believes detrimental to the best
interests of its future students.
Aetivities Are Cited
As for the student body, do the en-
gineers refrain from trying out for
Michigan athletic teams? When on
those teams, do engineers show any-
thing but a true Michigan spirit, the
teamwork which is expected of them?
Surely it is realized that engineers
enter into all student activities--pub-
lications, the Opera, Glee club, and
such, just as earnestly as any others.
Now as for this University college,
Mr. Brownell's arguments are excel-
lent for his side of the case, but, like1
any other question, there is another
side to be considered, and it must be4
considered seriously. The Engineer-

or elsewhere, who has ever considered
the Engineering college as being in
any way a separate part of the Uni-
versity. We speak of Michi-an, notj
the Engineering college. Such a thing
would be furthest from our thoughts.
Is Expression Of Opinion
It seems to us that the present case
is simply this: a University college
has been proposed. Since the Senate
resolution has a distinct clause i it
which provides for its being consider-
ed by the faculties of the various
schools, our faculty is now so do-
ing. Why should there be so much
commotion outside of our school,
when our faculty is merely taking
advantage of that clause to express,
their duty-bound to express, convic-
tions. They are obligated to do so.
Mr. Brownell implies that the Uni-
versity college committee was con-

University as a whole, or to be an
adequate solution for the many varied
problems confronting the various col-
leges individually. It is because of
this that we believe the writer of
Tuesday's article to be misinformed
in making the statement that the
University college committee wasj
convinced that the University college
was a step forward.
Differ In Methods Not Aims
We thoroughly believe in the ob-
jects which the University college
hopes to accomplish. They are quite
ideal and the problems are real. Our
point of difference is the method of
accomplishment, if it can be accomp-
lished under existing present-day con-
ditions. For the reasons which we
briefly expressed in Sunday's letter,
we do not feel that it would be wise
to introduce the University college
in the Engineering college at this
time. We are not trying to pull away
from the rest of the University. We
simply feel that we have not the right
to accept a proposal which we sin-
cerely and honestly believe is detri-
mental to the Engineering college as
such, and as an integral part of the
University. Is it to the best interests
of the University to enforce a move-
ment which may lessen the reputa-
tion and seriously injure the efficiency
of that college which has done much
to bring to Michigan the prestige
which it enjoys today?I
Reasons Requestedl
If the University college is to be
put in operation without altering in
any way the present classes, instruc-
tors, and students of the Engineering
college, and- such concessions have
tentatively been made, why do we
need it? We have seen no reasons
of any consequence offered, which un-
der those circumstances, argue in
favor of this proposal. Certainly the
eIngineering faculty would be willing
to assist any other college or colleges
in attaining those objects of the Uni-
versity college which the Engineer--
ing college has already accomplished
for itself. We do not believe that
the yet accomplished ones are open
to solution through the medium of the
proposed institution, and if it is not
going to ad us, we irepeat, we do inot
see the need of entering it.
Honor System affected f
That the honor system would be
affected by this proposal, requires
more :race to explain fully that we
have room for in this letter, but we
thoroughly believe that if the Uni-
versity college becomes an actual or-
ganization and actually takes the en-
gineering students for the first two
years, that institution would be in-
jured and probably destroyed. Our
Honor system depends upon contact
of the freshmen and sophomores with
the upper classmen. The classes are
interwoven into it and a professional
ethical code is thus started which is
lasting into professional life. Without
the contacts which exist between our
classes, the system could not have its
present measure of success since its
enforcement depends upon respect for
the authority of upper-class engineers
through the medium of the student
enforcement committee.
In closing, may we say that we hope

GERSHIWIN WILL PLAY
George Gershwin, composer of "I'll
Build A Stairway to Paradise" and
the music for the new musical com-
edy "Funny Face," piano maestro for
Paul Whiteman, and father of the
"Rhapsody in Blue" that caused such
a deal of critical slathering when it
was first played in New York a few
years ago, will give a piano recital
at the ilasonic temple tonight.
When "Rhapsody in Blue" made its
appearance all the smarter magazines
including "Vanity Fair" came out
with pictures of Mr. Gershwin, whom
they called the discoverer of the
American musical idiom, and other
quch palpitating names. At sounds
like these .all of the musical eye-
brows in America went up at least
an inch, and some began to wonder
and some began to hope that per-
I baps some good might be able to
conic out of the Afra-American sink
hole of Jazz. However, it was soon
discovered that it was just another
prank of the versatile Paul Whiteman,
always fertile in ways of amusing his
public, and that, as a great many
people had hoped throughout, Jazz
was to remain Jazz, and the most en-
tei'taining music in the world had not
hitched its wagon to the Y. M. C. A.

YOU AND I"
A review, by R. Leslie Askren
Life through a cocktail glass, com-
edy that only escapes idiocy by the
hairsbreadth of a brilliantly turned
bromide, tragedy that would be melo-
draima without the careful work of
Dougall and Loughton-that more or
less is Philip Barry's "You and I" in
the hands of a splendid Comedy Club
cast.
Barry's treatment of the problem
gives a glorious lie to the bromidic
cliches under which he has disguised
it, and the dialogue is bromide re-
charged with the facile sophistication
of wit, which makes it a wonderful
thing, especially when Dougall con-
centrates on his character and
Setchell throws herself into the role.
Of Loughton wonderful things are ex-
pected--she is already a tradition,
splendidly "immense"-but for all
that she didn't hide Baruch's wistful
splendor. Her control was beautiful.

Gentlemen:
Two years ago my wife gave me an
expensive pipe. I smoked it a great
deal for two or three weeks, put it aside,
then began smoking it again. This
time it was very strong. Veterans told
me that it had been smoked too hard
for a new pipe and should be put away.
The pipe was laid away again. A
short time ago I got it out and smoked
one of the common brands of tobacco
in it. The results were disappointing.
I told the druggist of my experience
with it. He asked if I had tried Edge-
worth. I told him I never had. I fol-
lowed his suggestion, and I am honest
when I say that it has restored the
sweetness to the pipe, and has made
me wonder. Was it the pipe or the
brand of tobacco that caused me to
lay it away for the long period of time?
As a novice, I prefer Edgeworth. I
am going to stick to it, as I feel satis-,
fied that there is none better on the
market.
Sincerely yours,
