REINDEL referendum on the prohibition question. The Anti-Saloon League promptly put another candidate into the field whom undoubtedly all the rabid drys will support. And so, we conclude, Michigan is not "seized and manacled by the League" as Mr. Joy would have us believe. Unless the Democrats sur- prise the state by winning several posts, we have the prospect of see- ing two Michigan representatives supporting the wet interests at Washington. Staunch Republicans may rest assured that political fire- works and publicity do not always bear as much truth as they do an element of hope or despair. PRINCETON PHILOSOPHY. That football has ceased to be a boys' game and is now a profes- sionalized enterprise was the opin- ion expressed by Bill Roper, Prince- ton gridiron coach before the Sports Writers' association of New York and Philadelphia the day before yesterday, in a speech which came as somewhat of a shock to those whose profession has been made annually more prominent by the increasing importance of foot- ball news coverage. "Football," said Princeton's fam- ous coach, "has declined from a boys' game with boys' spirit to a professional carer with night con- tests, spring practice, and unheard of personal publicity. Whatever we can do to push it back into the amateur stage will be of great serv- ice to American sport. Bill Roper has been coaching Princeton football teams most of his life. He has turned out some of the fiercest machines in the history of the gridiron. He has used every means of strategy known to the game - psychology especially. Be- fore the Yale or Harvard contests in the old days he was known to have signs painted and placed around the campus for a week in advance saying "PRINCEON CAN'T LOSE!" And now, Bill Roper, one of the oldest men in the business, deplores the fact that football is no longer played for the fun of it but for the publicity, the glory, even the money involved! Among the evils o our profes- sionalized football scheme, says the eastern coach, an outstanding fault is in spring practice which, through greater publicity, has distracted from baseball, one of the greatest sports and now almost non-exist- ent in high schools and smaller colleges throughout the country. Roper tells us to "let football re- main a virile fall game and not over-emphasize it by making it an all-year sport." He adds that even- tually we will become tired of this annual round of practice and play, and football will soon lose its bril- liance in our sporting limelight. Football-the sport of sports-' has become too sophisticated, too professional. We think too much about the great stadia and the powerful teams which have prac- ticed for nine months out of the year in order to become satisfac- tory to alumni and undergraduate bodies. We don't play football for fun anymore. We play for the power and the glory that goes with it TO~srwROLL YEA AUTO BANS' 61 Dan Baxter, the naughty rogue, saw the map of the road to Colum- bus but didn't see Ray Rea's state- ment on the front page yesterday, and so has left the rolls column to poor little me. I just hope Andy gets him. * * * He is going down, Dan I mean, on a motorcycle, clad in a red sweater (I mean Dan again) green knickers, blue tie, white shoes, touched off with a pair of overalls, disguised as a B & G boy. (No, not the motor- cycle.) And, boys and girls, if you see several seniors drooping around the campus with broken arms, it's only the election boys, who gave out so many cards Wednesday. The chief of the police department has writ- ten to New York to find out what they did after Lindbergh's arrival in an effort to clean up the streets of Ann Arbor. By the time the junior elections have been held, statisticians claim, students won't be able to get to classes. * * * NEW GAME. At last - a delicate, diverting method for getting to classes in Angell hall has been invented by the Rolls Vigilance Committee. You know how the co-eds clutter up the entrance between classes? It worked once, and if you don't happen to meet the same ones we did, it will work again. Method of attack is as follows. Select the place you want to go to. The bulletin boards aren't so handy because the columns are in the way, but it makes play more exciting. Start out by asking the first group whether or not they found a notebook with the numerals 1934 on it. If they appear peev- ed, you get 5 points. If they have the notebook, you lose the game. Push right on through and ask the next group. By the time you have asked 75 persons, the news will have spread around, and all will be down on the floor, looking for the notebook. Start running. If you get to the stairs before anyone notices, an extra bonus of 25 points is added. The loyal Purdue fans are now alibiing themselves into a victory by claiming that we are trying to emulate Harvard. (Try that on your thesis, Oscar.) Oh yes, and drink tea. They have probably never been to or played with Harvard. Neither have they ever been tol Ecorse, Windsor or Wyandotte.! * * * USES OF TELEVISION TO BE INVESTIGATED BY COLUMBIA SYSTEM And a highty-tighty idea, says Little John. Just imagine trying to answer a television telephone while in the bath tub. Tsk, tsk. And while we are at it, we nominate Senator Gerald (Snoopy) Nye to do the investigating. If he can get the investigators investigating assist- ant investigators who are investi- gating the televisionisters-well it's things like that that fill our column. * * * BULLETIN. This came by special delivery after Dan had left. We are rather glad, though, after the dirty cracks he made. (We DO NOT smirk.) Dear Dan: I think you should warn every- one that the Star of the Andes will be down at Columbus this week-end, and tell them to think up some new monikers (pronounc- ed Monikers.) Haspy. To anyone who has brains enough not to figure out that one, a cop- perplated medallion with a portrait of Dan Baxter will be given away. Shame, on you, Wooly, shame, and fie. * * * SPECIAL MICHIGAN DAILY, October 16.- The extra-special Rolls Campaign to keep the Library Seal from being worn out by the tripping and trep- ping of co-eds will start today, ac- cording to an announcement made by Dan Baxter and Elmer (Gan- try), editors of that bulletin. Much local interest has been aroused as to the methods which they will pursue.

The whole conception of Cesar Franck as a profound if not fecund spirit, a man of hypersensitive un- worldly feelings and cloistral moods, is based in France largely on the work called "Pysche and Eros," lit- tle known or played in America. Cesar Franck took the antique myth and paraphrased it musical- ly with a curious structure. The score is divided into choral sections in which the voice play the part of classic narrator, relating and comi- menting on the fable (in some such manner as the Narrator in Honeg- ger's King David); and into orches- tral sections, or short symphonic poems, meant to depict the actual drama. The principal orchestra number is No. 4, the duet which ex- presses Psyche's regrets to Eros at having yielded to her indiscreet taste for knowledge. Vincent D'- Indy's remarks is typical: "It would be difficult to regard this poem as otherwise than an ethereal dial- goue between the soul and a seraph sent from heaven to instruct it in eternal verities." The admirable Brussels orches- tra, under Desire Defauw, which has recorded the Bach D Minor Suite splendidly, plays this poem well, with ardor and with respect for Franck's "spirituality." There are many interesting resemblances in the score to the style of the symphony. GLAZOUNOV: Interludium in Modo Antico; and Profkofieff's March from the Love of Three Or- anges: played by Desire Defauw and theOrchestra of the Brussels Royal Conservatory Orchestra; Co- lumbia Record No. 67812. The "Interludium in Modo An- tico" is one of Glazounov's most interesting pieces of writing. It ap- peared strangely enough in a ser- ies of pieces for String Quartet called Cinq Novelettes. Glazounov himself did the present orchestra- tion. It is really a very effective formal study in slowly moving pro- gressions of sonorities. The Brussels Orchestra with a very rich string section, plays it very austerely. The first half of the first side contains a novel interpretation of Profkofieff's well known March. De- sire Defauw plays it less grotesque- Iy than does Mr. Koussevitsky for Victor. He plays it more slowly and the piece proves less an attractive bon mot and more a clever, aggres- sive March. RECENT COLUMBIA ISSUES. MOZART: Quartet in G Major (K 387): played by the tener String Quartet: Columbia Masterworks Set No. 144. This quartet and the B Flat (Hunting) quartet, which the Len- ers also record, are two of the six Haydn quartets composed by Moz- art during the years 1782-1786. The Haydn quartets, Mozart tells us himself, were "the fruit of long and careful study." As a matter of fact, they are generally thought of as representing a fundamental change in Mozart's writing; a change resulting from his appro- priation of recent Haydn innova- tions. 1781 was the year of Haydn's Russian quartets. He described them himself as "written in a new and special manner." It was Haydn indeed who created the pure class- ical style: inventing in these quar- tets the combined melodic and free contrapuntal development of cer- tain fundamental motifs. Mozart's Haydn quartets mirror the importance of that change. With the year 1782, Mozart aban- doned the task of doing commis- sioned work. He avoided ,indulging his virtuosity and took the prob- lem of composition seriously. No longer was his art merely a sociable one, bright, serene and equable, and mildly stimulating. The cava- lier's easy elegance is abandoned for the intense seriousness of the creative task. The G Major Quartet is an in- teresting example of that change. Technically, Mozart's structure is more tight. Experientially, the work is more inclusive than anything earlier. Queer notes are creeping into Mozart's cheerful strength: bizarre notes, elegiac notes. These changes are particularly vivid in the finale which, in its sonata structure and fugal development, strongly suggests the finale of the Jupiter Symphony. The suitability of the Lener style to Mozart is still a disputable mat- ter. Their interpretations tend to, STEPPI NG / N ____./ , l \ K ;( INTO A MODERN WO RL.D , r, LI .Z' / I \'W n _ -U Scientist and Saes-can TI- H E MODERN PAR T NER S H IP Like every other modern industry, the Bell System requires the combined effort of scien- tist and salesman.

BELL SYSTEM A NATION..W fD ESY83FM (flY M IORE THAN 20.000.000 INTER-CON\NECTING tTFLEPIHONTS I Ut EXPRESSIONS OF JOY. Henry B. Joy, self-styled died- in-the-wool Republican crusader, vehemently denounced the Anti- Saloon League several nights ago for having in its clutches the Re- publicans of the state of Michigan. Perhaps the fact that he was addressing the Crusaders, an or- ganization favoring the repeal of the Eighteenth Amendment, caused the blast of oratory to be more violent than it should have been, causing it to be featured on the front page of many a newspaper. But after an analysis of his state- ment, and existing conditions, not much truth is left in his charges. Michigan has always been known as a politically dry state. Until this year, no anti-prohibition candidate has stood a ghost's chance of being elected to any state or national office. In this fall's primary, how- ever, two members of the House of Representatives were defeated, by close margins, for re-election by wet candidates. Two out of thir- teen would not seem to indicate on the surface an extremely wet sentiment throughout the state. But the fact that one district should choose to defeat a man who had been in Congress for 18 years, consequently gaining a good deal of influence in Washington circles, and replace him by a more or less unknown figure, merely because he is wet, does not augur well for the Anti-Saloon League. Another Congressman, G r a n t Hudson, was also defeated for re- election by an outstanding wet, former senator in the state con- gress. Although denying that he was backed by the Anti-Saloon League, Mr. Hudson is about as dry as the Sahara desert, and the or- ganization would certainly not have let a chance go by to do their best to secure his re-election. Mr. Joy, however, made one very truthful statement when he pro- claimed that "the happy days of pussyfooters and straddlers as to solves-tS ~problems: Campus Opinion Contriutors a asked to be brief, conFiningz themse es to less than Soo w ords .if psil.

PATRIOTISM AT MICHIGAN To the Editor: It is plain disrespect when 45,000 people cannot hesitate for five min- utes before a football game to raise the American flag with the cere- mony that it deserves. Saturday, before the Purdue game, the flag was raised amid the shouts of the crowd, the calling of signals, and general confusion. This, however, was not the fault of the spectators but that of the referee who evi- dently considered it more important to start the game on the minute than to give a little time for "col- ors." We seldom have an opportu- nity to pay our 'respect to our flag so it seems entirely fitting that we take as much time as is necessary to raise it before the games. In the services the men stand at attention twice daily for "colors." Surely we should not hesitate to do the same whenever the occasion demands. The thousands of people standing uncovered and silent in our stadium while the flag rises to its place is truly a beautiful and stirring sight and one that should be kept a sac- red tradition of the University. Gas heat solves both the problem of the sales manager, who must meet the public taste with delectable hickory-smoked meats, and of the engineer, who must contrive to handle the production eco- nomically.
