For a single'day The Daily is content simply to reiterate its former state- ments and demands. On this day it is hoped that those officers of the senior class in whom the power is so evidently and even conspicu- ously vested will formulate some worthy action to correct the situa- tion. Tomorrow morning if such a plan is not forthcoming The Daily will resume its campaign with new fire and emphasis. The situation must be corrected. How about some ac- tion? 0 WHY THE GRID BANQUET? Speaking of local and national dignitaries with the familiarity which would almost lead one to think they were popular members of the student body seem to be one of the characteristics of the Grid- iron banquet. By some this is re- ceived with a shock, as being a de- grading influence on dignity. But it has its good points. The affair sponsored by Sigma Delta Chi was originated for the sole purpose of "razzing" anyone who might attend, regardless of his position, and the tradition has been carried on without very great h&rm. to anyone. In fact it has been her- alded as a time when students could meet professors, and average citizens could meet great states- men on the same level. That such an opportunity has the favor of all included is -shown by an acceptance to the coming banquet sent by Sen- ator James Couzens, who said, "The fact that dignity, place and rank are to be forgotten in a spirit of good-fellowship appeals to me im- mensely." No one who has attended has ever suffered a complete loss of dignity. With such men present as those' who are usually ehosen as speakers or who are subject to the razz of the others, there is slight chance of a loss of dignity, because they are of such calibre that they, can razz or be razzed and still re- tain it. Most of all, the spirit and the associations of the banquet serve to remind all who attend that re- gardless of place or rank, which may have been the result of many car on the suspicion that it is be- ing driven by a student,- is un- doubtedly the privilege of the of- ficer, but to address a woman driver in the above fashion seems to the writer to be the height of discourtesy. A police badge is not an insignia which gives one the right to insult the persons who pay his salary and behind which he can take defense after so doing. These officers, employed by the University, might at least act as gentlemen, whether they are such or not. Edwin J. Rennell, '32M, Ir Editorial Comment i A COLLEGE EXPERIMENT (From New York Evening Post) The great growth in college en- rollments which has taken place in this country in the past decade has brought home to the larger uni- versities the need of doing some- thing to obtain for their under- graduates those social benefits and advantages which are a natural and valuable part of life in a .-small college The Harvard "house plan" has been projected with this object in view. Now Yale is aboutto under- take a similar development. Several new residence quadrangles are to be erected, each with its own din- ing hall and common rooms. The present plan of class dormitories will eventually be abandoned or at least modified, for it is proposed that the new residence units be made up of students from all four classes. Each student will thus be a member of a small but represen- tative group and should be able to make broader and more varied so- tacts than is now possible. Both the Harvard and the Yale plans differ from the Oxford and Cambridge system of separate col- leges, with which they are some- times compared, in that they cause no division of the teaching staff or of courses offered. Lectures and recitations will be held as at pre- ent. The change comes only in the living arrangements of the stu- dents. Harvard and Yale are making an experiment. Judgment upon its value must be suspended until it has been in operation for a while. But everything points to attain- dinner, but a formal banquet." A banquetis easily worth two dollars more than a mere din- ner, he said. Only $2.75 of the admission price is for the banquet, officials point out. The remaining two bits is to cover the cost of mailing tickets and to pay for souvenirs. Yes, souvenirs will be given out to all guests at this year's grid banquet-unless no souvenirs can be found that cost less than ten cents a dozen. As a relief from the long speeches of previous years, committee mem- bers confide their hopes of present- ing a number of little skits to pro- vide amusement. Here is Rolls conception of The Daily sports staff and women's staff combining in a tasteful ballet dance: ~NVNISR4 Confessions of a Chorus GirI Where does the sissy sports staff end and the wonderful (remember this is Rolls) women's staff begin? The sports writers would run a banner headline when they defeated us in basketball last week, would they? Now maybe we're even with them! The grid-iron banquet resembles the other chief function of the University, the home-coming foot-1 ball game, in that it attracts many prominent men from all over the nation to Ann Arbor. * * * EASTER PROGRAM Tonight' at 8 o'clock in- Hill Audi- torium, the Unlversity of Michigan Band, under the direction of Nicho- las D.
