Kaufman SUMMER AUTOS Yesterday's proclamation from the office of the automobile dean with regard to the ban in summer school is encouraging, though not completely satisfying. It recog- nizes two of our fundamental ob- jections to the ban as it existat the present time: to wit, that ,it works an injustice to students in professional schools, and that it deprives juniors and seniors in good standing of a legitimate and deserved recreation. During the coming summer ses- sion, to be exact, the auto ban will not apply to "those who engage in professional pursuits during the regular academic year"- a class of persons comparable, surely, to those who attend the University's professional schools during the regular academic year. And "limit- ed recreational privileges" will be extended to students possessing satisfactory records of scholar- ship. But along with these sensible modifications. comes a reminder that "during the regular academic year no student in attendance at the University is allowed to oper- ate any motor vehicle." To have this accusation of immaturity thrust thus upon them is excusably irritating to men and women who, have proved their seriousness of purpose and who cannot, by any misuse of the words, be termedj 'sophomoric' or 'juvenile.' It is these persons, moreover, who have not attempted to violate the ban, though it has been bluntly insult-~ ing to their sense of responsibility. With these responsible students in mind, undoubtedly, President, Little promised when the ban was, inaugurated that it would be grad- ually relaxed as it became possi- ble to control that element of the student body in whose hands auto- mobiles might be aangerous. It seems to The Daily that what fear of God can be thrown into a stu- dent body of heterogeneous psy- chologies, has already been thrown. A few will always rebel ,against authority, but the vast majority have complied graciously, if not willingly, proving that the ban has demonstrated its enforceability. We ask that steps be taken to extend the 'summer leniency on professional students to the regular academic year, and that the "lim- ited recreational privileges" be ex- C, A , MT JI'tY SU~IMA L yMA 28 I mlm DIM VISION Everyone knows that planes fly thousands of miles daily in safety;. everyone realizes that the propor-_ tion of fatalities is no greater than those caused by train, auto- mobile, and sea tragedies; but be-I cause air navigation is the newest mode of transportation, news deal- ing with air mishaps is still met with wise noddings of the head and expression of "I told you so." Three bits of current news should tend to impress the air synic with the factors of safety that science1 and common sense have given the art of flying; at least they brighten the vivid painting of smashes,1 crashes and crack-ups which form the daily diet of those who cannot see beyond the immediate picture. A fifteen-year old boy of Pendle- ton, Indiana, "borrowed" his fa-, ther's plane and flew, with a twen- ty-year old cousin, to South Bend. Although forced down by a storm, neither the plane nor its occupants suffered harm.... In California a tri-motored plane loaded with seven passengers and the east- bound mail, hopped off recently on schedule, caught fire at an altitude- of two thousand feet-and landed safely.... And down in Texas, Rob- bins and Kelly continue to shatter world's records in a single motored plane that hasn't stopped roaring for nearly a week. Doesn't this prove that flying isn't the suicidal affair that the tongue-clucking doubters would have it? There will always be airplane crashes, just as there will always be automobile smashups, train wrecks, and sinking ships, but none of them occur so frequently that man will forsake these vital means of transportation. A train wreck in the east doesn't frighten people inthe west; an auto collision in De- troit doesn't cause a panic in Chi- cago. It isn't reasonable. The people who raised their hands in horror at the excited gen- tleman with the red flag who pre- ceded by ten paces the roaring 1903 horseless carriage have raised chil- dren who now shake their heads at the roaring ship of the skies. Both generations are pathetically shortsighted. Campus Opinion Contributors are asked to he brief, confining themselves to less than 300 words it possible.

MILD DISGUST To the Editor: Reading the contribution to this column of Saturday entitled "Mich- igan Women," the first impression is that some young thing has been disillusioned, or that somebody has fallen intellectually in love for the first time. A second reading, how- ever, fixes the hand of a woman to the article-a woman perhaps none too pleased with her college sisters, but thoroughly down on men. Dismissing the issue of the frivol- ity of Michigan women with an amused smile, it might be admit, ted that said women are most cer- tainly after an education; but it's the breadth and depth of education that really counts. And another question might be raised as to just what comprises the work to which they apply themselves so diligent- ly. Some coures are easy and some are hard; the girl's average may be higher than that for the whole school, but the latter includes the most difficult courses offered. Michigan women, speaking gen- erally, are here to gain a knowl- edge of improved methods of secur- ing happiness, but it might not be out of order to remind them that there have been hundreds of dis- appointed husband-seekers grad- uated from Michigan . thout a 'chance of getting married for some time. Certain girls date continu- ally while others date when they get a chance. Companions of equal mentality and morality perhaps have an ad- vantage, but it seems surprising that more of such companionships are not formed for the benefit o: intellectual conversations. As fo the associations, both men and wo- men would probably be better off without so many, except for the benefits the women have derived from being taught to recognize and imitate the developments worked out by men. Those who have been guilty of making the "unfair" judgments o Michigan women do not feela great dislike for them, in all prob- ability, nor are they in any sense jealous.
