Michigan is one of the universi- ties in the country which has en- couraged the matriculation of for- eign students. Nearly every course in the University has several stud- ents from foreign countries enroll- ed. For the most part they come to the university to obtain credit, and not merely to receive a cultural background. They are here to learn the tricks of mass production, ad- vanced commercialism, and the various complexities of trade and industry through which the United States is said to have taken the world leadership. Michigan and other American universities, through the tutelage of these students who will become leaders in their countries, are play- ing an important part in the trend of human affairs, the effect of which would be hard to determine at this time. However, the fact that our educational institutions are faced with a new and ever-increas- ing demand must not be over- looked. The full significance of the responsibility must always be kept in mind. That the results will be far-reaching can not be doubted.

Amazing how time does fly, isn't it? Not only that, but there are only something like fifty- six groups of twenty-four hours left before the old man will be trying to convince our youn'ger brothers that that pillow in his stomach makes him into the patron saint of the popcorn ball and the five-and-ten-cent store 'imported vase'. . * * * This Newberry Auditorium Business is getting positively insulting. They haven't even started to paint the thing. Hereafter, every true b I u e Michigan Man, Woman or Pro- fessor will, if they have any decency at all, wet their fingers and rub out as much of the dirt on the walls as is possible before class starts. When they see us wearing our fingers to the bone for old Michigan (not to mention threatening the destruction of the building by removing its supporting en- crustation of d i r t) maybe they'll sic the B & G Boys on it, and make the Campus an honest Woman. PRIZE AWARD!! The Weekly Rolls Award issued by the Anti Coed campaign fund has been given this week to the gent who whizzed into Angell hall yesterday just in time to complete the havoc that a young and gay coed had wrought upon what might have been a fair looking nose when not hidden by a cascade of oat- meal or whatever it is that coeds use on their noses. I don't believe I have ever seen a prettier stroke than the one he executed with that unwieldy door. It's timing like that that distinguishes the 'Top-Notch- ers' from other notchers-and I'll shoot the first hound that says it's notch so! It has been suggested to me that I go out and ring doorbells on the night set aside for this purpose, but, in this age of sophistication, Hallo ween know when the time comes?

In trying times like these, color, race, and creed should be forgotten for the good of the cause. Are we Mice or are we Men? The coed, like the old Saloon, must go. I stepped into a flock of the Vermin over at the Union to- day, while putting the nod on this paper, and, with all its faults, you never saw an old Saloon wandering around The Union's sacred corri- dors.

SIC AND DRA MI;DRMA CHORAL UNION CONCERT A Review by William J. Gorman. Last nights Choral Union con- cert achieved some sort of record -in being unbelievably unmusical. Mr. Lion gasped his way through a Bach Polonaise and Badinerie. Mr. de Bourguignon's sloppy pas- sage-work in the Saint-Saens Al- legro and his wild thumping in the Ride of the Valkyries suggested the pianist at the old Arcade. Then there was Madame Clair- bert. One admired her stage man- ner. Her informality was very pleasant; especially in the light of the Ponselle fluffiness and prima-! donnaism. Unfortunately, however, her approach to the music seemed to parallel this leaning on the piano. She pushed herself off the piano into the music and continued to be indifferent. Madame Clair- bert betrayed no particular interest in herself as an artist (that is, as a sensitive woman), in her voice as an expressive instrument, or in the music as anything but a mildly tantalising task. There really was no respect for her profession, no awareness of the problems in pro- jecting a song. Madame Clairbert seemed thoroughly satisfied with} the communication of a shallow, slightly coy, thoroughly unmusi- cal temperament. This was particularly disappoint- ing after the very promising dis- play of technique in the first vir- tuoso piece. Madame Clairbert, there, was an agile coloratura with an adequately elegant delivery. The program absolutely failed to make any significant use of this techni- que. Two of the numbers in the first group were inconsequential. Ex- cept in the coloratura passages, she was clearly incapable of singing Mozart correctly. She didn't have the intelligence to grasp Mozart's ordered, intricate gracefulness. The one aspect of technique (homo- geneity of tone-quality in various registers and intensities) necessary to mozartean fluencyshenentirely lacked. Her coloratura in the second group was only mildly interesting. Galli-Curci in her prime rendered coloratura passages as arabesque: that is, in lovely form. Miss Clair- bert hasn't the intellect or the in- terest in the music for this. Her coloratural is merely casual decor- ation. And in spite of the rumours of the success of her Violetta in San Francisco, the final aria from La Travietta proved undramatic.

Perhaps at this point a few hard' headed demagogues will answer that they are getting paid only for the time they consume in the rou- tine of formal class work, and that what time remains to them they would not desire to waste in idle discourse with a group of under- graduates. A certain amount of this feeling is perhaps to be expected and is quite excusable. However, it has been found that the really top notch, faculty men welcome these opportunities to make a frank acquaintance with the boys whose customary attitude toward their instructors is apt to be one of bluffing. In short the Student-Faculty dinner idea is to be encouraged as a tendency in the direction of tak- ing some of the unthinking form- alism out of the college routine, and making the campus population a congenial host of thinking indi- viduals. away from religion. It strikes me that campus support of such lec- tures would be more efficiently ex- ploited if effort were concentrated on one series. And again, many of the convocations are ludicrously incongruous. In particular I re- call a lucid and authoritative ex- position of world armament sand- wiched between prayers and spirit- ual anthems two years ago. I don't think that the S. C. A. can do anything about religious inactivity more t h a n squirting vinegar at the indifferent. After all a person's religion is usually the result of his background. Christ- tian associations can achieve pro- gress (in their eyes) by affecting the environment of persons in the formative period, but collegiate as- sociations come a bit late for the missionary work they attempt. All of which leaves the S. C. A. precisely nothing to do, which is no news. I have heard of an in- tention to convert Lane Hall into a foreign students' dormitory. That would fill the vacuum and still i J it k Oooohooo Daa-aan, Wait for me-hee. Look!

One could almost have predicted this from the nature of other of his performances. Victor has now given us his performances of symphonies one, two, and three. One would then have almost everlastingly stimulating music. For there is a consistent air of novelty about anything that Mr. Stokowski does. His intelligence is so provocative, his musicianship so thorough, his orchestra so compe- tent, his individuality so superbly confident that one enjoys his work even when there is disagreement. Stokowski realizes all his inten- tions perfectly. We delight in the perfection and study the inten- tions: the latter task being possible only with records. In interpretation of Brahms, Stokowski refused to be swayed by the cant about Brahms' "austerity and coldness." His Brahms is in- tensely emotional: thoroughly the romanticist, though a thoughtful one. Several people call his reading of the First Symphony "russianiz- ing." Stokowski, they say, gives the emotions.of Brahms something like the revival-meeting quality of those of Tchaikovsky. Actually, I think he is only in- tensifying the existent in Brahms: that is, discovering Brahms more profoundly. S t o k o w s k i makes Brahms less the austere musiclJ thinker, more the impassioned ly- ricist. In doing so, it is quite possible that he amplifies. There seem to be too many enormous masses of tone, too much gorgeous color. But if these are exaggerations, Stokow- ski adjusts them to one another with an uncanny and convincing feeling for proportion. His canvas may be extended; but it is consist- ent.
