Wilds Gurney Williamis Reporters .o reasons were three: first that a large element of the student body is prevented from viewing hockey games by the fifty-cent tax; see- ond, that inasmuch as the charge is really made for the privilege not of witsessing the contests, but of skating after the play is finished, it is unfair to levy the admission price against the majority who have no interst in exercising the right; and third, that hockey's in- tegral place in the athletics-for-all objective demands that it receive the advantages which widespread student support, contingent uponf the removal of the admission charge, would bring. Since the appearance of the above epitome, the athletic officeC has reviewed th possibilities of re- moving the tax and decided against it. This was prompted largely by the fact that even while the charge is operative, the Cole-J sium is packed for home hockey' games. Where, the athletic board asks, would the large crowds who would attend if we disposed of the charge be accommodated ? While the answer to this perfect- ly legitimate query is self-reveal- ing and completely justified under the present conditions, it is sin- cerely to be hoped that the solu- tion will be forthcoming in the near future in the form of increas- ed facilities for accommodating large crowds at hockey games without the necessity of curbing student interest in the sport by a price.

W. W. Pound, of the New York court of appeals, recent- ly presented before the New York state bar association. Judge Pound's accusation is based fundamentally on charges of excessive paternalism on the part of literary colleges. In part, he says: "It still remains for the schools to rebuild the system of preparatory training on modern lines; to eliminate that which is merely conventional, and to em- phasize the necessity for training men 'to do rather than to criticize and to try rather than to aspire." Lak of executive ability, the Ohief fault Judge Pound has to find in law students, is evidently an em- anation of the paternalistic train- Ing to which students of contem- porary literary colleges are sub- jected. Nc agency in our modern edu- cational system provides adequate- ly for the character training of youths in their last stages of adol- escence. Colleges fail to perform it, and it is a task which profes- sional schools rightfully refuse to attempt. "The law schools shrink from the taskof character training, as such, although they are forced to struggle with the problem," says Judge Pound. The task of character training is one which falls rightfully to col- I e g e s offering pre-professional courses of study. It can be accom- plished only by allowing students a certain range of liberty in which their actions will result in their personal advantage or disadvan- tage. It cannot be done according to a system of rules which does not. al- low even graduate students to drive automobiles.

This 'back through the years' appeal is vivi- fying Mr. Greet's appearances in the East at the present im e. England's recognition of Sir Phil- ip Ben Greet had its royal approv- -al on June third of last year when King George knighted him in grateful appreciation of a life de-' voted cause of drama in education -a life of conscientious service in; behalf of the best stage traditions. During the war Mr. Greet was en- gaged by the London City Counil to present plays at the Victoria Theatre on Waterloo Road in Lon- don, the "Old Vic" which is now being torn down in favor of an of- fice building. There he produced twenty-four o f Shakespeare's l plays including the first quarto of Hamlet. He gave up that assign-1 ment when the board of Education requested him to present Shakes- pearean plays all over the coun- try. One of the greatest tributes to Ben Greet's genius, and one of the greatest sources of joy to himself, is the eminence to which his staget children have attained 'in their) professional existence. Sybil Thorn- j dyke, foremost tragic actress of England, made her first stage ap- pearances in his American tour of 1905. His standing as a Shake- spearean authority inevitably leads every producer, director, and actor who his planning a serious Shake- spearean production for his coun- sel and warnings. Mr. Greet wrote a red letter page in dramatic history when with William Poel of the Elizabethan Society-he revived the great mor- ality play "Everyman." lis dra- matic masterpiece had slept for four hundred years before Mr. Greet's revival. Charles Froham became interested in the unique- ness of the play and brought it to America where it has been one of the most successful performnces y in the repertory. "Everyman" will be presented here Sunday night. MLLE. MODISTE. ~MA0~ /7 wt~. J - V I 4 I #1 609 .WILIAM T. PIO~f70/ IO .W tI OKS.

This early opera of Victor Herbert's, enjoying the col- laboration of a good lyriviist in Henry Blossom undoubtendly has a better chance for permanence than some of the later more sac- charine ones.

I immediately said Michi- gan, and he smiled as lie does when he tells a bootlegger "two thousand dollars and three years." He told me I was living in the past and knew Michigan as of the 90's, un- der Jimmy Angell and Harry Hutchins. He asked me if I could feature their becoming hysterical over prohibition and giving the University unfavorable publicity or calling in federal pussyfooters to spy upon the faculty. He said big men did not reform others or en- deavor to mold them. in their own likeness; that there were still strong men in the Michigan fac- ulty, but that they were not con- trolling her policy. I have since found his views borne out very generally. Personally, I am quite unable to comprehend the assumption of au-f thorities of the University thatI they have any right whatever to reg- ulate fraternities. They do not sup- port them.
