TO SAVETRADITION0H RECOMMENDS SUSPENSION FOR SENIORS WHO DRINK AT SWING OUT SENATE STARTS ACTION Discipline Committee Of Council To Carry All Cases Before University Group Summary suspension was recom- mended by the Student counci' last night as 'the regular punish- ment to be meted out by the Uni- versity disciplinary committee to any members of the graduating classes who appear at Swing Out, Thursday, May 9, under the in- fluence of liquor. This action was taken in response to query from the Senate Commit-f tee on Student Affairs as to the! council's feeling about Swing Out. The Senate Committee intimated' that it was considering the abolish- nient of the tradition altogether in the light of last year's exhibition of public drunkenness. The council passed the following resolution which will be submitted to the Senate committee: "Swing Out is one of the oldest traditions of Michigan and one which, we feel, every student re- spects. In recent years there have been several members of the grad- uating classes who have, by their actions,. lowered the dignity that has been associated with this tradi- I tion. The indiscretion shown by, these members has forced the Sen- ate Committee on Student Affairs to doubt seriously whether or not it is feasible to continue Swing Out. Richard Halliburton Will Appear As Eighth Lecturer On Oratorical 5ries Richard Halliburton, world-trav- i cler and romantic adventurer, who. will appear next Monday night in Hill Auditorium as the eighth fea- ture of the 1928-1929 Oratorical As- sociation lecture course, typifies the undaunted spirit of youth as few characters outside of fictionhave done. One gasps at the suoerabun- dance of dramatic living that this young writer has packed into the last seven years, when he surren- dered heart and soul to the call of adventure in daring to live hisf dreams. Halliburton, at 27, is the author of two of the most popular non-fic- tion books of the century, "The Ro- yal Road to Romance" and "The Glorious Adventure," in which he portrays his travels in search of romance. The son of a distinguished Sou- thern family and a graduate of Princeton University, he ran away in quest of adventure, sailing the seven seas before the mast, vaga- bonding his way into all the ro- mantic and poetic corners of the world. Although wealthy, he lit- erally traveled the world over on a "shoestring," working his way here and there. Halliburton was the first person in History to ascend Mt. Fujiyama in winter.
