UAhIiFI JH-1ZLi I nappeneC, tnat the University would have learned a lesson, but with the closing of Delta Sigma Phi last week it apepars that it has not. The action, stated press accounts, was taken by alumni of the fraternity. Dean Bursley verified the statement and said he knew nothing of the action until informed what had been done by the alumni organizations. Members of the Delta Sigma Phi fraternity and alumni, however, said that the action was taken because they feared even greater punishment from the University. INflllff/!f//!llI tlfflfllf1/ ' N Ai.

Saltzstein Bernard B. Schnacke Grafton . Sharp Cecil E. Welch Just now it is not important who was responsible for the closing of the fraternity, but the fact that the, University, under no circumstances, should have per-_ mitted such action. Naturally the closing of a house, would create publicity and it did, although past action of the administration has shown that they are seeking to avoid unfavorable newspaper talk. Delta Sigma Phi should have been regulated within the body if publicity was to be avoided, as well as for the god of the organization. Instead the University received publicity, members are living unregulated and scattered throughout the city, and the organiza- tion will go into their house next fall with an un- stable background. .. .Fraternities at Michigan, if they are to continue to exist on this campus, will have to back the Inter- fraternity council to the limit, they must stick to- gether as a group, and they must demand fairness from the administration. Next fall they will have a great start since the new constitution of the coun- cil gives the fraternities power to govern themselves to a great extent. This power must be taken, it must be used justly, and above all the administration and the council should remember that the precedent of closing fraternities for infractions of University regu- lations has been a distinct failure. '32. O- Music and Drama CAPRICE A Pre-view. IN CONTRAST to the emotional role of Electra in the opening play of the Dramatic Season in the Lydia Mendelssohn theatre, Blanche Yurka, the dis- tinguished New York star, opens Monday evening, June 1, for a weeks' run in the leading comedy role of Sil-Vara's "Caprice." Miss Yurka will appear as the sophisticated Madame Ilsa von Ilsen, which will per- mit her to display her marked talents as a com- medienne and which will present her in an entirely different type of part from her performance during the past week. "Caprice" is the recent New York Theatre Guild success, originally starring Alfred Lunt, Lynn Fon- tanne and Ernest Cossart. The comedy ran for a year in New York and for another season on tour. Mr. Cossart, who is now in Ann Arbor rehearsing for his opening bill as Sir Wilful Witwood in "The Way of the World," has assisted in the direction of "Caprice" and has given the entire company all of the original action of the New York production. Blanche Yurka is said to be eager to appear in the comedy role of Madame Ilsen in "Caprice," be- cause audiences recently have come to associate her with emotional parts rather than high comedy in which she made her first success. This past year, however, she returned again to comedy as star of the New York production of "Lysistrata" with marked popular favor. Previously she had appeared in comedy successes with David Belasco and as co-star with E. H. Sothern, Charlotte Walker and Jane Cowl, Miss Yurka is a close friend of Lynn Fontanne who gave her valuable suggestions on the part in "Caprice" just before the company left New York for Ann Arbor, Opposite Blanche Yurka will appear Reynolds Evans, leading man of the Dramatic Sseason, as the Counsellor von Echardt, originally played by Alfred Lunt. Ann Arbor audiences remember with pleasure Mr. Evans' work in such high comedies as "The Last of Mrs. Cheyney" and "Aren't We All?" The setting for "Caprice".is continental Vienna of today, and the comedy centers about Counselor von Echardt, a suave man of the world, and the woman he loves, the brilliant Madame von Ilsen. As the Spring seems to be here with a bang. Today we saw a class of stu- dents sitting on the grass outside Angell hall. They didn't appear to be a botany class because they weren't looking at leaves or any- thing. The instructor looked sort of frantic and helpleses and was crying to make himself the center of attractioA. The majority of the student body was engaged in watching co-eds on State street, watching squirrels in trees, and watching insect life in the grass. CAMPUS MYSTERY!' Another campus"' mystery has been uncovered by the Rolls Pher- ret, and we are putting the facts before the public in an effort to find the solution. There is a circle in the sidewalk right out in front of the Union measuring perhaps three feet in diameter. Any expla- nations that may be forthcoming will be joyfully received by this col- umn. FRONT PAGE NIFTY The world in general was inform- ed yesterday that "Houseowners Can File Empty Rooms at Union." This ought to make it a big year for the householders. It's been ages since anyone has filed an empty cc ** "c" * roomat he Uion This nasty fraternity party business isn't improving a bit. There is to be a mass meeting of a selected group of politi- cians who will mull over the situation, startle themselves, and will end up by turning the whole meeting over to the Daily to do with as it wishes. Why doesn't the Interfraternity Council stop fooling around with matters of this sort and attack something really detri- mental to the Campus like the Interfraternity Council. This Fraternity Closed Party situa- tion ought to be taken care of too. * * * TOASTED SPORT-SHOTS The tennis team upset all the sport dope when tliey upset sport dope in defeating a strong Big Ten contingent who were hoped to win by sport dopes all over the country. "Claw" Hammer and "Watermelon" Ryan, a pair of aces, fought their way to the summer-finals after up- setting the dope. The . Wolverine netters in an overwhelming win over the Illinois seeded ace played a colorful match that brought sev- eral spectators to their feet with hard fought volleys and longrallys. Michigan was not doped to win. BLANK SPACE DEPARTMENT. r SPRING HOUSE- CLEANING SUPPLIES We carry a complete tine of Wallpaper, Paints, Varnishes, and Redecorating supplies.

The complica- tion of reconcilling the sophisticated Madame von Ilsen with the naive boy create the farce of the play, especially as both father and son fall in love with her. Other members of the cast of "Caprice" include Robert Henderson as the boy: Doris Dalton as his young mother; Amy Loomis as the . Delicate Lady; John Collins as the Doctor; and Dorothy Scott as' Minna, the old retainer. There will be Wednesday and Saturday matinees of "Caprice" in the Lydia Mendelssohn theatre. At the added Thursday mat- inee, June 4, Strindberg's "The Father" will again be given, preceded by a poetry recital by Blanche Yurka. The Dramatic Season is receiving marked atten- tion from the New York and Boston newspapers, the recent issue of the Sunday New York Times carrying two reviews of the "Electra." Five of the national theatrical maga'zines for June are carrying articles on the season, and the Boston Transcript contained a lengthy summary of the season by H. T. Parker, the distinguished Boston critic. Of "Caprice," Mr. Parker said, "It is a civilized play, benign, dashed with sentiment, dashed with cynicism; taking the hour of pleasure and moment of pain, light-fingered with the one, grave-eyed with the other; sensuous always, gay of word while the glance turns wistful, the Viennese temperament is irressistable. "Caprice" is a light and gamesome eve- ning. These Viennese, like Sil-Vara, have deliciously frosted life." * - * * The Senior class is in its usual quandary about a suitable memori- al to leave on the campus. Rolls would like to suggest that the ordi- nary pile of rock that is usually given be chiselled out a bit into some shapeathat would be pleasing to the eye as well as to, the senti- ment. The Rolls artist has drawn up a design for a suitable memorial for the class of 1931 to leave the University. Its about time that the Seniors spent some money on me- morials.
