200 HAVE ALREADY VOTED;
Students Urged To Call At Club
Ofices In Union For
Information
As election day draws near, the
Republican club is launching a final
drive for the student absentee vote.
It is supplying facilities for absen-
tee balloting and is presenting
speakers to arouse interest in the
election. /
Residents of this state and of;
Ohio who have already registered
are urged to secure applications!
for absentee voters' ballots in room
302 at the Union between 1 and 5
o'clock any afternoon until and in-
cluding Friday of this week. Blanks
may be secured on Wednesday from
9 until 4 o'clock in front of the
library. Approximately 200 appli-
cations have already been received.
It is possible that those who have
not registered may get permission
to do so by writing to the clerk of
the township or city in which they
reside. Any information or assist-
ance i~n such matters may be got-
ten at the club offices in the Union.
An informal meeting, open to
anyone interested, will be held at
7:30 o'clock Wednesday night in
rooms 316 to 320 of the Union. Prof.
Everett S. Brown of the politicall
science department will speak about!
Herbert Hoover, presenting an in-1
timate view of the candidate. Prof.
Brown is a personal friend of Hoo-
ver's and is thoroughly acquainted
with the inner phase of his public
life, having served on his staff dur-
ing the World War.
Negotiations are under way to
arrange a debate between members
of the faculty on the comparative
nualifications o; the candidates for
the office of president. Prof. Thom-
as H. Reed, also of the political sci-
ence department, will probably
Speak for Hoover. The other speak-
er has not been chosen as yet.

SCREEN
REFLECTIONS
With so much interest being dis-
played on the subject of campus
theatres it is incumbent upon all
devotees of the higher art to have
some ideas upon the subject. Con-
sequently after much deep think-
ing we have decided that we could
serve the muse in no more ade-
quate manner than by promulgat-
ing a campus movie theatre. As
a site for the new edifice we have
chosen that ground occupied at I
the present time by Mimes.
There are two reasons behind this
choice, two manifest advantages to
bU gained by thus situating the
proposed temple. They are: first
that it would enable Mimes to build
a" new theatre (which they deserve)
and second that we would not have
to walk so far (the merits of this
need no further elucidation).
Now for a modest sum we could
be persuaded to take over manage-
ment of the enterprise. The values
of this move are of course mani-
fold. For instance there would be
no Colleen Moore pictures shown,
smoking would'be allowed, anyone
causing a disturbance by yelling,
whistling, or otherwise making a
fool of themselves would be imme-
diately and forcibly ejected. If at
any point the interest lagged the
lights would be turned up, the back
of the seats would unfold and be-
come bridge tables and the audi-
ence would have plenty of time to
play a rubber or, two of bridge be-
fore the lights were again turned
out for the final clinch.
The other day we dropped in of'
John*Gilbert in "Four Walls." The
greatest thing to be said in favor
of this one is that it gave Greta
Garbo a well earned rest substitut-
ing in her stead Joan Crawford.
Apparently John wasn't at all
pleased by that (who would be?)
and so he decided to fool the men
I who had treated him so foully by
1 making the picture less than it
should be--he did a capable job.
In the words of the popular ballad'
"'taint so, lioney, 'taint so."
We hope that none of you missed
Victor 1VcLaglen in "The River fir-
ate." Somehow his huge frame and
his ugly face make us beam all
over. He has an insight into one
of the most difficult 6f all subjects
-the emotions and reactions of
men who have not spent all their
lives solving the intricacies of
negligee. To be brief we think the
M. MacLaglen is pretty good.

Writes Book On Law
Of Ancient Peoples
Prof. Albert R. Crittenden, of the
Latin department, yesterday receiv-
ed copies of his new book, "Read-
ings In Roman Law," just off the
printing press.
"This book is designed," said Pro-
fessor Crittenden last night, "to in-i
troduce the reader to that field of4
Latin literature in which the Rom-
ans did their most original and cre-
ative work. It presents selections
from the worls of'the great Roman
jurists bearing on topics which still'
possess a vital interest, supplement-
ed by 'brief notes to help in theI
intelligent reading of the text.
"This is preceded by an introduc-j
tion dealipgwith the origin and
development of Roman law, the re-
lation 'of Roman law to English
law, the Corpus Jurus Civilis and
its influence upon modern codes
of law and upon the development
of international law."

Tuesday, Oct. 0th
Auspices: Michigan Women

Eight thousand hitherto un-
known worlds of stars have been
revealed by a study of photographs
made with the large Harvard tele-
scope in Peru.
This statement from Harvard
college observatory marks another
step in one of the most amazing
fields of discovery. For each of
these newly discovered star groups
is, in astronomical belief, an entire
"universe," or 'extra galactic neb-
ula.' Each one is separated from
the earth by vast distances, esti-
mated to range from a hundred
thousand up to as high as one hun-
dred million light years.
The total number of nebulae thus
far discovered is given by Dr. Har-
low Shapley, director of Harvard
college observatory as thirty thou-
sand. They appear on photograph-
ic plates as dim masses of light.
They exhibit several well defined
shapes. One is that of a spiral,
another spheroidal. There are ncb-
ulae of the form of spindles, and

some are barred spirals. A fifth
type, is irregular.
The best known of the irregular
shapes are the Magellic Clouds,
which are visible to the naked eye,
but which can be seen only in the
southern hemisphere. There are
.two of them, the Large and the
Small Clouds. They lie in the con-
stellations Dorado and Tucana, 15
degrees from the South pole. Fo
the eye they appear as . elongated
patches of stars of nebulae with'
irregular extensions.
Several astronomers at Harvard
are working on measurements ofI
the remote galaxies, such as those
newly recorded this year. This re-
search is considered as probably
the most interesting and important
at the observatory. The 24-inch
Bruce telescope, which recorded the
8,000 new galaxies, is under trans-
fer to Bloemfontein, South Africa,
where Harvard is establishing a
new Southern Hemisphere observa-
tory.
