Broadcasting from the studio
room on the fourth floor of Uni-
versity hail, the second of the
series of twenty-five Michigan
Night radio programs for the cur-
rent year will be put on the air
between 7 and 8 o'clock tonight
through WJR-WCX, the Richards
Oakland Co.'s "Good Will Station"
of Detroit. Prof. Waldo M. Abbot,
of the rhetoric department, direc-
tor of radio for the University, will
again officiate as announcer.
Included on tonight's program
are talks by four members of the
Universityfaculty. The musical
part of the program will be given
by members of the faculty of the
University School of Music.
Dr. Albert C. Furstenberg, pro-
fessor of Otolaryngology in the
mediral school and specialist in
ear, nose, and throat diseases in
the University hospital, will speak
on "The Common Head Cold."
This will be a continuation .of the
series of talks on medical subjects
which have been given over the
radio by Dr. R. Bishop Canfield
and Dr. Furstenberg in former
years.
Sharfman Is Speaker,
Prof. I. L. Sharfman has chosen
as his subject, "Government and
Business in the Presidential Cam-
paign." He will point out the
causes of the unusual feature this
year in that the two major par-
ties are catering to the big business
instead of flaying it, as has been
the case in past campaigns. Pro-
fessor Sharfman has been called
into consultation with many large
business organizations throughout
the country to discuss economic
problems and his reputation in this
field assures a most interesting
talk.
Another athletic talk will be given
when Elton E. "Tad" Wieman, head
football coach and assistant direc-
tor of athletics, will explain the
purpose in a football game-what,
each team is striving to do and how.
it attempts to accomplish this pur-
pose.
"Education and Politics" is the;
subject of the talk to be given by
Junius E. Beal, Regent of the Uni-
versity since 1908 and a member
of the executive committee of that
board. Regent Beal has been ac-
tively engaged in state politics for
many years, and he will discuss
their relation to education.
Announce Soloists
On the musical part of the pro-
gram, Miss Thelma Lewis, of the?
voice department of the School of
Music, will give four vocal solos:
"Se Florindo e Fedele" by Scarlat-I
ti, "Non so Tiu Cosa Son" by Mo-
zart, "The Wounded Birch" by
Grepchavinoss, and "The Soldier's
Bride" by Rachmaninoff. Theodore
Harrison, head of the voice depart-1
ment of the School of Music was
originally scheduled to appear but
is unable to sing because of illness.
Hanns Pick, head of the Violin-"
cello department of the School of
Music will also be heard in four
numbers, playing the 'cello: "Sar-I
arand in G Minor" by Handel, "Rig-
audon" by Raneau, "Piece en Forme
de Habanera" by Ravel, and "Alle-
gro Appassionate" by Sait Saens.
Mr. Pick is a graduate of the con-c
servatories of Karlsruhe and Buda-a
pest; a pupil of Popper; former soloI
'cellist of the Philadelphia Sym-I
phony Orchestra, and a member of i
the Rhode Island Trio.t
FORESTERS HEAR .
GROUP OF TALKS
Talks by two of Michigan's prac-
tical foresters featured the pro-
gram last night of the Foresty clubt
in the Natural .Science building.r
Paul A. Brinson, '29F, gave the firstf
talk on his experiences on a timbert
"It is very refreshing to political
life to have two candidates of such
high quality as Hoover and Smith
running for the office of Presi-
dent," said Prof. James K. Pollock,
of the political science department'
in an interview yesterday.j
"In my opinion, Herbert Hooverl
is one of the greatest men in the
world," Professor Pollock declared,
"and Al Smith is one of the out-
standing governors of New York,
one of the most competent leaders,
the Democratic party has ever pro-
duced. Candidates such as these'
two men raise the level of politics
all over the country."
"I deplore, however, the personal
slander that has been rife on both
sides. Calling Mr. Hoover an "ali-
en" and an "enemy of the Ger-1
mans" and branding Mr. Smith a
"drunkard" constitute unfair and
unjust tactics. The vote should be
based upon the issues of the cam-
paign and the qualifications of the
candidates without bringing in
petty matters.

(3) After the party the house*
president shall" turnr in a full re-
port, giving the number of people
in attendance at the party, stating

with uninvited guests, whether or'
not there was any trouble of any
kind during the party, and includ-
ing suggestions for improvement in
handling future dances. This re-
port shall be signed by both the
house president and the chaperone.
Many fraternities have already
planned parties for this Saturday
night expecting such action to be
taken. The acceptance by the Sen-
ate Committee of the Interfrater-,
nity Council's resolution gives posi-
tive permission for these dances.

MUSSOLINI ADDRSSES
FASCIST PRESS MEN
"Italian Press Is An Integral Part
Of The Regime," Declares
Italian Premier
PRESS BECOMES MISSION
(By Associated Press)
ROME, Oct. 10---The duty of a
Fascist press is to avoid what might
harm the regime and to do what is
useful for it, Premier Mussolini told
the directors of some 70 Fascist
daily papers who met in the Ohigi
palace today for a press conference.
"Fascism," declared the Premier,
"is an all-inclusive regime and the
press is an integral part of it and
cannot be apart from that unity.
That is why the entire Italian press
is Fascist and should itself feel
proud to fight under the Fascist
banner," he said. "Thus journal-
ism, more than a profession or a
trade, becomes a mission of great
and delicate importance.
"The freest press in the entire
world is the Italian," he said, add-
ing that in other countries "the
newspapers are at the beck and call
of a plutocratic group, of party and
individuals, or are reduced to the
insignificant object of buying and
selling exciting news which pro-
duces on the public a kind of satu-
ration with symptoms of debility,
inanition and imbecility."
In other places newspapers are
in the hands of trusts which con-
sider the press as the same level,
as the iron or leather industries, he
asserted. "Italian journalism," he
declared, "is free because it serves.
only one part and one regime, free'
because within the laws of the re-
gime it can exercise all the func-
tions of control, criticism and pro-
pulsion."
He condemned sensational head-
lines and scored notoriety speakers.

LOSE SEVERAL BALLOTS
Elaine Gruber, Ardith Johnson And
James Duffield Are Returned
Victors After Recounts
Senior literary students were still
without a' president last night al-
though their election was held yes-
terday afternoon. Three offices
were filled satisfactorily, but due
to a near-tie vote for president
between Loy Sutherland and Fen-
ton Raber, the Student council has
cancelled the results of the presi-
dential vote for the president for
the present, according to Paul J.
Kern, president of the council.
A conference is to be held today
by a committee from the council
and J. A. Bursley, dean of students,
as to which course it will be advis-
able to take: a recount of the pres-
ent votes, a new election or decla-
ration of election of one candidate,
by the Council.
Elaine Gruber was elected vice-
president over Josephine Welch,

In the first counting of ne pres-
idential race, Sutherland lead 207
to 202. Councilmen conceded to
demands for a ,recount, as there
were grounds for one. Two recounts
followed, and one gave Raber a
margin of one vote while the other
favored his opponent by the same
margin. Several ballots were lack-
ing on the additional recounts and
it was thought wise to delay further
action until the council meeting, at
which time the committee was ap-
pointed to consult with Dean Burs-
ley.
By an error in makeup in the

were omitted from the Law school
senior officers, and the engineering
officers were lost entirely although
the presidency was mentioned in
the head. Melvin 011 was elected
secretary of the senior Laws over

Consider Other Means
Three other means of sett

thrown out by the council. A
counthof the presidential bal
was held useless, since grave
picions were entertained by ni
bers of the council that a nur
of ballots had been lost, destro:
or stolen while they were be
counted and recounted in the
ing room.
A proposition to name the pr
dent by a new election was
feated as unfair to the candi
on whose ticket the women ca
dates for office had been succes;
since he would be drawing his
educational support to the pol
second time. To declare either F
ton Raber or L. M. Sutherland e
ted on the basis of the afterno
returns was 'considered distin
unwise.
Kern Refutes Charges
Paul J. Kern, '29, president of
council, refuting charges that
balloting had been corrupt,
clared with feeling that "never:
a more sincere effort to hold
honest election been made by
Student council."
A recount was held during
meeting of the ballots cast for
other three senior officers, .
none of the earlier results was
versed.
