JAPANESE ACTRESS
SPEAKS OF WORK
How to Entertain Americans
Is Difficult Problem.
"Our most difficult problem when
we began playing for American
audiences was to know just what
your people wanted and what kind
of acts would be successful," Mrs.
Michitaro Ongawa, Japanese acts
ress, who appeared here last week
said, in precise and perfect English.
"We discarded act after act," she
continued, "and innumerable cos-
tumes, scenery, and other articles
of stage property, just because they
were not successful with the Amer-
ican public. Japanese drama is
essentially symbolic, and one ignor-
ant of that tongue cannot appre-
ciate the symbolism. So we had to
gradually adapt our plays to the
American stage.
"The plays we present are Jap-
anese legends adapted to the Amer-
ican stage. The foundations of all
our acts are genuine, including
legends, music, properties, instru-
ments, and costumes, but the acting
cannot be entirely Japanese. We
use a few touches of Japanese act-
ing, and always 'iclude an ex-
planation, so it will be understood."
In regard to the Japanese stage,
Mrs. Ongawa said that the condi-
tions of the stage are much like
ours.

Article in Atlantica
Discusses Feminism
Feminism as a part of the Fas-
cist movement is the subject of an
article published in the Atlantica
recently. Women are here shown
to take a vital part in the Italian
Fascism.
The University of Milan boasts
of women on the faculty in the
school of Electrical engireering.
The first woman to undertake the
study of Law now holds a position
as professor in the Law school.
An architectural scheme; recently
proposed for market facilities in
Milan is credited to a woman.
The masculinity of Trade Union-
ism has been cowed before the on-
coming of this femninist move-

surprising protection to women in

philosophy department said in a
readi.g delivered Sunday after-
noon in the Grand Rapids room
of the League building. The sub-
ject of the reading was "The Mod-'
ern Outlook on Art and Aesthe-
tics," originally given as a com-
niencement address at Northwest-
ern university.
Mechanics May Destroy.
"There is another possibility,'
he continued, "that the mechani-
zation of civilization may ultimate-'
ly destroy that civilization, but I
do not think this will occur. Un-
der present conditions art is nec-
cessary to national life.
"The art that will grow out of
the United States will be made up
of different racial elements, that
may mingle and produce an ex-
ceptional form of art. And th6
artistic products of different parts
of the country may have certain
individual characteristics, though
it, must needs all have a national
character as a result of the close
communication of all parts of the
nation.

Emily White Conducts
Classes in Rhythmics
Miss Emily White, of the physical
education department, is giving
Saturday morning classes in Rhyth-
mics to children under the age of
12, to develop a sense of rhythm,
an appreciation of music, imagin-
ative ability, and mind-muscle co-
ordination.
[ Miss White has come to the Uni-
versity of Michigan this year from
the University of Chicago where
she taught natural dancing to col-
lege women, and also to children
in connection with the Nursery
school. She is continuing these two
lines of work here and she also has
charge of Orchesis.
Miss White is teaching experi-
mentally in her children's class to
see in what the children take 'most
interest; she is trying pantomimes,'
folk-dance music and the usual in-
terpretive pieces.
