It propounds a creed which i atheistic in the field of college ath letics; but is also propounds a plan which cannot help but command th attention of those eduators intereste in developing intercollegiate athletic to their maximum of beneficial influ ence TO WASHINGTON The testimony of Prof. Edson R Sunderland of the Law School befor the House Judiciary committee con- cerning a new bill proposed to thai body is an instance of recognition o the University and its Law Schoo] which deserves notice. The fact that Professor Sunderland originally draft- ed the bill about which he testified makes the incident even more compli- mentary to him and to the University. The bill itself, providing for the registration of court judgments of each state of the Union in all other states appears to be one of those worthy but belated measures which might very well have been enacted in the early history of the Republic. The Constitution provides that such laws shall have "faith and credit" in all states of the Union, but until the present time Congress has never pro- vided for the enforcement of this pro- vision. The new bill, an act of registration, will render judgments throughout the United States, in order that a lawsuit will not be necessary to secure this "faith and credit." The act has the endorsement of the American Bar as- sociation and apparently lacks only the endorsement of Congress to make it a reality. The very obvious value of this new piece of legislation, coupled with the large part which Professor Sunder- land has played in its preparation and consideration, is a singular com- pliment to the eminent position of the Law School and the Law faculty here. Michigan can be duly proud of the past record of achievement and the present reputation of this branch of her state University. THE OIL WAR Starting last summer when the Royal Dutch Shell company of Europe accused the Standard Oil compay of stealing oil from soviet Russia, the battle between the two great commer- cial organizations for supremay in the East has steadily grown more bitter until an open conflict seems imminent and inevitable at the present time. Only one branch of the great Stand- ard Oil company-the Standard Oil company of New York, has thus far been drawn into the heat of the con- flict, and what the final alignment will be, or what the final outcome will be, are as yet extremely dubious. There are only two courses open to the competitors, however, and neither of them promise very bright outlooks to the general public. The first pos- sibility is an amicable settlement, with a price and trade area agree- ment, and the second possibility, the most likely, it seems, is a bitter price war between the two throughout the Far East, with the local consumers shouldering the burden. The outcome in either case will be extremely interesting, for though great commercial struggles between competitors in the same nation are common enough, it is rare when such battles assume the aspect of inter- national conflict. All in all it seems inevitable that both companies will survive the war in the end, even though they may be poorer and wiser, for the field of international com- merce is a tremendous field, and such a thing as an international monopoly is almost inconceivable. LAW OR GOOD WILL? If the ruling of Controller General McCarl is to prevail, army aviators henceforth must carry mess kitchens FROA YSTERDAY'SPR ?Tmen s I page we learn of a restriction which should cause more of a sensation than any automobile ban, yet devised. The dean of women at the great University of Indiana has made rules which pro- hibit women :students from showing their knees. For the first violation they will lose five hours credit and for the second they will be expelled from school. THE DEAN AT Indiana certainly had the interest of men students at heart when she made such a ruling. The women may lose five hours credit, but the men have been losing untold hours of credit, because such a ruling has not been previously enforced. * * * FOR HISTORY CLASSES kC, i No longer will scenes like the one pictured above be seen on the Indiana campus.

The vastness of the sum is inspiring in its poten- tialities, but it is more than inspiring -it is a challenge to the men who have it in their hands and to the policy of the University from which it arose. In a few years, at this rate, the new stadium will be completely paid for; and before the present freshman class has left college the new intra- mural building will probably not be the subject of debt. The Women's field house and other programs of ex- pansion are arranged in the financing plan, and the end of the process of material equipment is in sight in the not far distant future. Even allowing for a shrinkage in the gross income, some decision will have to be made for the disposal of these vast surpluses within a very few years. To reduce the admission charges to athletic contests would be rather out of place with the stadium sold out at present prices. It follows, therefore, that this disposal of sur- plus funds will have to take the form1 of expenditure on or subsidy for some worthy University project. To suggest that this surplus be spent upon purely educational phases of the University will doubtless cause spasms of rage among athletic direc- tors 'throughout the country. The fact remains, however, that the ath- letic authorities are possessed of this surplus which they will be unable to use in any extremely effective man- ner.

Personally, the smile always struck ma as a self conscious attempt at animation for the ,photographer--but that doesn't matter. What does is the fact that he will appear at the piano with the New York Symphony Feb. 1. A virtuoso, his modesty prevents him from taking his skill seriously so his appearance is a phenomenon rather than a professional engage- ment. R. L. A. * * * "IR) BOOTS" Mr. McIntyre is presenting Zieg- feld's "Kid Boots" which starred Ed- die Cantor and Mary Eaton some three years ago for a one night stand at the Whitney tomorrow night. This marks the renaissance at the Whit- ney, for beginning tomorrow night, it won't be dark for some moons. Be- sides the opera, and the Rockford Players, Walker Whitesides has been announced for one performance of "The Hindu" on Friday, Jan. 27. Since Mary Eaton is now playing "The Five O'clock Girl" in New York and Eddie Cantor is on the road with the "Follies," they probably won't be seen with this company. however, it's the only eye and ear entertainment until the Junior Girls' play so you might as well go. * * * "THE VANGUARD," by Arnold Bennett. Doran and Voinpany, Neiy York, $2.00. A review, Ben S. Washer, Jr. This is a neiv Arnold Bennett! FO, in "the Vanguard" he has turned out a pleasing novel, one that need not be taken too seriously, in which he has an easy reading, lightly flowing style. In spots there is a grace and charm to the handling of an unusual mo- ment, and again there are passages which remind the reader of many concoctions of inconsequential drivel that he has read many times. Unfortunately Mr. Bennett has cre- a,±ed a plot in which there are too nmiany relevant details. The mind of the reader is so intent on remember- ing the intricacies of the situation that the character study, which I think the author was attempting, is lost in the debris. There are so many barriers to jump that one cannot gel to the personality of the characters- and this is disconcerting to say the least. I imagine Mr. Bennett had great fuit writing this book--it seems so. - : 3 1l111111111111hhhhh hhhh[;i iw nitia inn hllhlIhlhh1lJlhh1lIhtih1111111111i 111111Id l hlIl l nnI mnhlinnnhIhllhlIlnf l h ll Iri AFTER THE SWDW-BETWEEN CLASSES -fa satisfying and sustaining .-.
