IThe story was headed so as to give the idea that the story originated in this city, but the fact that it was, has been denied by the local cor- respondent of. that paper. Evident- ly, the news was manufactured on the basis of occurrences of last week which shook the campus from Monday to the week-end. But that development is too long; the coaching staff still appears to be functioning as a unit, Yost is back and smoking black cigars, and Wieman is head coach. "Beat Wisconsin" is the watchword. The student body is experiencing an entirely new sensation for it- self. It is one that has been famil- iar to students of other schools, but not to those of Michigan. It has what is apparently known as a "losing team." At least it has lost three games and has yet to win this season. But Defeat is the test of Loyalty, and it has done little to Michigan spirit except to strengthen support for the Univer- sity and prove that our teams are not infallible. The general idea that Michigan never loses has been smashed to pieces, and a new con- ception of loyalty has taken its place in the student mind. Perhaps at this time a Michigan team has never before needed such stout backing as the present one does now. The coaching staff needs to be shown that the stu- dent opinion is not one of its in- efficiency but of its inability to find yet a winning combination from material which is admittedly below, standard. The student body has received a jolt to its idea that "We always win; why don't you go to Michigan and support a winning football team?" Wisconsin university plays here next Saturday. Team and coaches will need something more than de- termination to win-they will need encouragement and a different mental attitude. This can be im- parted only from the campus.

SIMONS "-TO THE TEAMS AND COACHES!" he events of the past three rdays have been the proving Ind for the University's foot- teams, for the student body, for the coaching staff. In de- all three have had their met- tested in a manner in no way parable even to last year, when team dropped two games out ight.

The idea has been cur- that the team was nothing the leftovers from an exceed- y poor Varsity squad, but such ot the case.

CURTAIN To the Editor: At the time my friends and I grouped together to compose the article entitled "Immaculate Al"' we had no idea that our opinion and sentiment would give rise to so widespread a furor and panic. Suffice it to say that these opinions must have had some ele- ments of facts in order to strike home and register in the fashion that they did. We take great satis- faction in noting that but one of all these critics undertook to re- fute and disprove these statements. Others merely contented them- selves with calling them "absurdi- ties" and thus showing themselves as shallow thinkers and immature debaters, leaving meanwhile the rest of the Campus in the predica- ment of hearing only one side of the question. After much toil and research, G. C. T., '30 quoted articles and amendments from the Constitution which were entirely irrelevant to the point in question. My state- ments were grossly misrepresented by W. J. G., '31. He claimed that I "abhor" Catholics. As a matter of fact many of my best friends are Catholic, and nothing in the article could be taken in other than the political sense.. Both the writers W. J. G. and N. R. N. produced replies so utterly absurd that they do not merit further attention. H. S. H., '29, gives us a truly wel- come reply, the only one of the entire series which used clear and fair-minded refutation. Those persons who wrote to the Editor of the Daily criticizing him for publishing such "rubbish" are extremely narrow and selfish. Campus Opinion is open to opinion of students, free speech being a prized liberty by most of us; and those who would attempt to pre- vent the exercise of that right are the highest type of bigots. The rules at the top of the column en- titled Campus Opinion expressly state that letters published should not be construed as expressing edi- torial opinion. Anyone who disre- gards this and critizes the Editor "Bring, bring the wonders down." Why didn't Hill auditorium come down brick by brick? We would have helped ! The potent combination of the "Inlander" and the galloping Vachel as he crept through the Congo managed to make each a financial success, incidentally ad- vertising the Hut and a prominent lady "who for four years has re- sided in Ann Arbor." The polite halfback never of- fends. But Mr. Eby, a football affixture at Ohio State, showered Otto, the Michigan squad, (He's promoted) with respect by going back and obligingly letting himself be tack- led a second time, the first at- tempt being a realistic example of Michigan football offensiveness. * s s A simile-as slow a the Mich- igan backfield. * * * * * * Rolls is going to hold a conven- tion and award a medal to the person who has contributed the worse rot, wash, and guff to Cam- pus Opinion.

Galli-Curci presented a strikingly trivialuprogram at Hill auditorium last night. If there was a fortunate absence of discomfort- ing colaratura it was compensated' by an altogether too partial indul- gence in triviality. Mme. Galli-Ctr.- ci does these unimportant things very well but one feels the pity of the choice all the more for that reason. Her voice is a very re- markable one, more so for its sen- sative employment than for any unusual richness. This sensitive, unforced quality was, naturally enough, more complete in the mid- dle register and the low tones too' were attacked with admirable ease; the tones of the highest octave were not so happy and their diffi- culty wag'only too apparent. But, as a purely physical demonstration the performance was superb and! whatever criticism is made in this respect can be of little moment. In the light of this sensitive response to the demands of her voice, Mme. Galli-Curci's uneven respose to the demands of the music was more ob- vious than it might have been. At times one felt that the singer was a little too careful of her voice, as in the Cantata by Scarlatti, and that the notes became a little too important as notes, which is an- other way of saying that they were over-emphasized and lost their sig- nificance as part of a musical idea. This is a danger inherent in col- oratura singing and in virtuosity in general. It is the artist's dis- tinction that she did the simpler songs like Brahm's Sandman, en- cored after the Scarlatti Cantata, without any attempt to make them or rather to remake them for a coloratura. A pardonable trace of self-conscious artistry was the only hint of the demonstration that had preceded. Mme. Galli-Curci was very gen- eerous with her encores. After the Adieu Notre Petite Table from Manon she sang a Serenata by Tos- ti, then the above-mentioned Sand- man and, just before the intermis- sion, La Paloma, with much seek- ing after hidden beauties brutally ignored as beauties in folk songs are wont to be and perhaps should be. This was followed by two more: Donnez-vous by Weekerlin and Petite Jeanneton, an old French song. Mr. Samuels, the accompanist, played three rather inconsequen- tial pieces after the intermission, followed by a Reverie by Debussy. He is altogether too careful to be an important pianist. One says of him rather charitably that he may not have great technique but he is so musical. For the rest of her program, Mme. Galli-Curci chose to sing un- important English songs and less important American encores, like Just a Song'at Twilight and Old Kentucky Home. The only com- position of any significance was a Theme and Variations by Mozart- Adam.
