AN HONEST ELECTION At last the senior literary class has a president and a bitter fac- tional dispute is at an qnd. The situation was at best a difficult one and its satisfactory settlement Is indeed worthy of recognition. Tied on the first ballot, the two candi- dates, Raber and Sutherland, found themselves the center of a campus political storm. Reports of frauds in the balloting were numerous and a great deal of ill feeling re- sulted. A series of conferences followed between representatives of the Student council and J. A. Bursley, dean of students, but it was not until the two candidates mutually agreed to withdraw from the elec- tion that the situation was cleared up, and a new election with a cleared field made possible. The sacrifices made bythe two candidates are not to be taken lightly as the office meant a great deal, undoubtedly, to each. That they did withdraw is an exceptional indication of good sportsmanship and to be commended most highly. The second election, held Mon- day afternoon, was as absolutely fair and impartial as possible. That it recognized another candidate as president seems of importance to many. But it is chiefly to be re- garded as a straightforward, honest election. The voting by freshmen and sophomores, cus- tomary in elections of other years, was totally absent and the result recognizes that it is possible to conduct an honest election on the Michigan campus. All too often in the past, this has, unfortunately, not been true. There have been many occasions, it is regrettable to remember, when any but honest methods were successful in nominating and electing candi- dates. That the time has come, tardy though it may be, when Michigan can have clean elections all of the time may well be hoped and every effort made to insure its permance. Smith pulled a fast one getting his tariff speech in ahead of Hoover's. He made the other party look like a bunch of liars and grafters. But so did Hoover, only in a more polite way. He threw in a lot of figures though, that helped con- fuse the audience. He shouldn't do that. It isn't so effective as Smith's hell, fire, and brimstone straight from the shoul- der tactics. They locked horns on only one issue-the tariff commission. It was Smith's round by a wide mar- gin. If the debate, Reed vs. Any Smith Man On Faculty, goes through, it ought to produce a bigger blow than even the Eddy-Reed-Hobbs tornado of two years ago.

Rumors concerning the absencE of Prof. Fielding H. Yost from his duties with the department of physical culture and subsequent rumors concerning his taking over the instructiop of physical culture of several promising young men at Vanderbilt university, have been spiked. Professor Yost merely went to Nashville, Tenn., "on busi- ness," he having a great deal of in- terest in a bank there. While there, it is entirely likely that he will visit his brother-in-law, Daniel McGuigin, who has charge of the group of promising young men Professor was said to have gone to aid-the Vanderbilt university football representatives. Both Professor Yost and the Vanderbilt coaches have denied stoutly that the Professor had any idea of even -leaving the dear old University of Michigan that until recently, has furnished abundant football material and lots of alum- ni to help build nice buildings for the athletes, and to be named after famous local characters. The attitude which Professor Yost has taken concerning his trip is perfectly all right. Professor Yost of the physical culture depart- ment has as much right to take his yearly vacation or to leave town on business without having to announce the fact and sign a requisition slip as has any other of the scholars on the faculty. A scurrilous report by a metropolitan paper, sent by a reporter who was not sure of his facts, can cause a lot of trouble as has been shown, but all famous men meet it sooner or later. It was entirely unfortunate, both for the Professor and for Michigan football fans who have respect for the coach of the foot- ball team, that three losses, two on successive Saturdays, and that poor material on the football squad came together to stare the readers of the latest story in the face. Professor Yost has before gone in such a situation, and has returned holding as much respect as before. He has announced firmly and loud- ly that he is not head coach--he coaches the ends and backs. Tad Wieman is now head coach and is .s~v7rA1!7ha y'nti 00 'Iaby hulav~ring a o- - - - -o * * * WE WHO ARE ABOUT .TO DIE- The Lark may sing up in the sky, But soul and wit he seems to lack. So let him fly and fly and fly, Just send my Three Star back. For Three Star seemed to know the ropes: He printed all the songs I sang, And never really dashed my hopes; But Lark has dropped me with a bang. When Three Star was the chef and such He printed all with hope and glee, He took my lines (they were not much) But now Lark cooks-ah, woe is me! I used to shake a wicked pen About the deans and other things, And slap at Prexy now and then- But now another woman sings. So now I make this last protest, For Lark detests me, I have seen. I'll give my pen a needed rest And dream of days when I was queen. Pert Gert. * * * Why is Mr. Yost in the fall like the trees in the spring? Because they both leave when we need them most. NOW WE'LL PRINT ANYTHING! The opera is a uirect departure___ from the stiff and artificial style that was written at the time. Of1 similar interest are the "Toccatta and Fugue in D Minor" by Bach, s which, unlike most of Bach's com- positions, were not intended for church music. These two selec- tions stand out as being of the= master's most dramatic and most popular works. Another number the "Chinese Garden" suite by De- Lamarter is adiaphanouscompo- sition, full of variety in tone-color - OT and individualism imbued with STATE keen imagination. This suite, it 1TET- may be remembered, was played at the dedication of the Frieze organ last spring. C. A. A. A LITERARY JAW-BONE The cross of collegiate literary Aft he hoh editors seems to be the exceeding the show, the dearth of really useful material for the columns of whatever magazine they happen to be connected with. view, what is good is too good for the college magazine. What is bad is still plenty good enough for a most m rhetoric courses, or to give the freshman in the House who has one of those terrible short story assignments. Obviously there re-T' mains little that can find its way sar to the editorial desk of such a paper as The Inlander. It is hard-1 ref ly fair, in reviewing the present ex copy, the first of the year, to add that the magazine shows this situ- sh ation, but for anyone unaware of to this editorial problem the conclu- sion is inescapable. Inlander boasts of the fact that it is by way of being literary god- CRIPPEN S father to Stewart Edward White, a novelist of some distinction. Lit- 7 erary heritage at Michigan has al- ways been a slender thread. The I early career of Ring Lardner has OPEN its ironic aspects; so does that of Avery Hopwood, or perhaps there is more irony in the terms of his bequest to this institution. At all events, literary tradition of 'any _ sort is so limited that not unnatu- rally the bohunks who arrive at Alma Mater's doors from here, there, and God knows where, come to feel quite safe in classing the A N literary devotee with such outland- ish sissifications as silk underwear and the rest of the affectations of in l the "precious." Inlander makes a 'Tutoring All brave effort to buck this juvenile philistinism. Its format is very 11 simple; very attractive, too. The articles are honest efforts. Some of the stories could be "cut" a lit- tle. Some of the poetry one hes- itates to analyze; "Our ancient blood is purple where the lark "Goes southward through the marshes." But it is honest effort that in-MACK dicates an awareness of more than the etiquette of tea drinking as a part of a writer's life, and Inlander deserves to be successful in break- ing down the prejudice of "preci- 310 So.

"BARBARIC IMMIGRANTS" To the Editor: In answer to the letter to Mr. R. L., Grad., I suggest that he take some of the following suggestions under his consideration. 1. Just how do you arrive at that "Barbaric Immigrant" idea? 2. The saloon, an American in- stitution, was here before the "Horde of Barbarians" came. 3. The "best people" all read with glee how their forefathers traded firewater for the Island of Manhattan. 4. The "real old Americans" got rich in the rum and slave trade and the next generation carried on in the saloon and brewery. 5. Under present conditions the rich American has his cellar full of good booze and even the bar with brass rail; the "Barbaric Immi- grant" gets the prison bar, the in- sane asylum, the undertaker, or better yet a bullet in the head. All the above, carried on in the name of Liberty and Justice should be in the name of Hypocisy and *Ri antrv M'gosh, Is She Really One Of The Faculty? It occurred to me, while reading your column yesterday, that the tone of the paragraph addressed to me was not so reverent as one; could wish for an elderly member of the faculty, such as I have the honor to be. You insinuated, among other things, that my pub- lished contribution was lacking in humor. I do not understand. I laughed heartily at it, myself. And, furthermore, I was always con- sideted a great wit throughout my life at Oxford, or was it Cambridge? Sue Burb * * * THE VOICELESS (A swell poem, like Milton's) Oh, blessed are those with souls ETHEL BARRYMORE The arrival of "The Kingdom of God," starring Ethel Barrymore, is perhaps an anticlimax to the ap- pearance last week of George Ar- liss in "Tle Merchant of Venice," but whatever her appeal to the public may be, Miss Barrymore's appearance is a bright light in the rather dark world of Detroit the- atricals. The play which she has chosen as vehicle for her amazing art is Sierra's "The Kingdom of God," which gives her an opportunity to play through the whole sequence of a girl's life. She makes her first: appearance as a nun, 19 years old, usually unrecognized by her audi-I ence who expect her to give some small sign at least of her fifty odd years. The second act shows her ten years later, more mature in her faith.
