TONIGHT IS THE night when the famous Oil Can will be awarded to someone. In the past the holders of the trophy have been worthy of it in every way and tihe next winner will be just as worthy. * * * . THE CHAIRMAN OF the committee stated that almost any member of the faculty has most of the qualifica- tions for winning the trophy, but a few, such as the past holders, have outstanding characteristics. ' * * * PERHAPS THE BANQUET will have Bill Thompson to razz and per- haps tihe cracks will be limited to the local candidates for the Oil Can. * * * ONE OF THE outstanding men for the Can is assistant to the dean Em- ery, but it is feared that certain factions in the student party, backed by the money of General Motors, will oppose him. BACK TO WILL ROGERS THERE IS JUST one more story we have to tell about that cowboy, who makes everyone laugh. The other day when we went to interview him in tihe company of half The Daily staff we went r to his room in the Union and listened to him talk. * * * ABOUT A HALF hour after we were there Dr. Tom Lovell, holder of more degrees meaning nothing than any college president, burst into the doom and gave Will an autographed copy of his latest book. * * * WHEN WE LEFT Will asked us who he was. When the situation was explained, Wifs explained, "I guess he is locally, what I am nationally!" "Yes," one of the staff said, "he's a little cracked." * * * CITY ELECTIONS IT SEEMS THAT the Democrats won an election recently in the great city of Ann Arbor. Here it is, right in the heart of Michigan, and the Democrats won. Someone must have stuffed the ballot boxes. * * * ONLY A FEW miles from here, in Jackson, to be exact, the Republican party was founded and Michigan has voted for them ever since. These Republicans must be getting careless to let the Democrats win an elec- tion. * * * THE HOOVER FOR president club had better be careful or the demo- crats will secure control of the or- ganization and swing the sentiment to Smith. * * * MICHIGAN LOSES AGAIN OLD ELI, KING of the conquered East sank the Michigan swimmers the other night when they attempted to show that they were the best in the United States. AND THAT REMINDS us that the track team lost to Harvard a couple of weeks ago. Don't worry, boys, just wait until that old football team of ours bumps into the dear old East. By the time the Easterners have dis- covered where the ball is the game will be all over. OR! THESE LAWYERS WE LEARN FROM Poison Ivy that a certain law student stayed up all night and walked around the town to win a bet of $1.50. We'd hate to bet him a dollar that he couldn't fight the engineers alone. He probably would try it to win the bet. * * * NOW IF A student would only spend that much time on his studies TrHEATER BOOKS T H I S AFTERNOON: Earl Moore's classes In Choral Litera- ture will give Dubois' "The Seven Last Words of Christ" in Hill aud- itorium at 415 o'clock.'
