al result would be the production
of Varsity teams by individual and
intramural routes, as a normal out-
come of previous competition. While
these views will undoubtedly draw
out a barrage of criticism from en-
trenched athletic quarters, the
courage with which P r e s i d e n t
Ruthven has taken this stand indi-
cates the temper of his convictions,

taken place from a student activity
to a university function; over-em-
phasis may be reduced by encour-
aging intramural sports and indi-

may be avoided by ceasing to stage
competitions as public spectacles,
treating them rather as voluntary
student activities within the physi-
cal education program; and since
the staff is best fitted through
knowledge of its aims to develop
the institution as a whole, athletics
including intercollegiate competi-

Yes sir, here it is Saturday again.j
I never should have thought to see
the day when Saturday turned upj
on time like this two weeks in a
row, but here it is Saturday again
-say, it is Saturday isn't it?
LOOK what I got, fellows, no less
than a poem-no more either.
Way out West where the Coyote
thrives
Where men are men and
women are wives
There lived a boy who had for
a pet
A cross-eyed bear whose eyes-
nearly met
When asked his name he re-
plied quite sadly
He guessed he'd have to call
him 'Gladly.'
I asked him why, at his answer
you'll stare,
"Why, sir, in church they al-
ways sing
GLADLY THE CROSS-EYED
BEAR."

JUST A Coed.

In the columns of one of our
very finest Ann Arbor after-
noon Dailies I observe the fol-
lowing comment which seems
to me to be an unusually swift
and to-the-point cerroboration
of the theories of one Dr. Ruth-
ven of local fame in the Dog-
Licenses-for-Students League.
"It is estimated that a crowd
of ,000 will view the contest
Saturday in case the weather
is favorable."

IS VIVISECTION SCIENTIFIC?
To the Editor:i
I should be very grateful if you
would allow me sufficient space in
your paper to express a few ideas
about vivisection.
Recently I have been forced to
listen to the cries of dogs, presum-
ably being experimented upon,
howling piteously and wailing for
hours. I have asked students for
their views upon the subject of
vivisection. They almost all re-
gretted that this terrible type of
research existed upon the campus
but they seemed to have the vague
idea that it was necessary for the
continued welfare of humanity and
the education of medical students
That is utterly untrue. Vivisection
is unscientific. It is a product of
what G. K. Chesterton, in his re-
cent lecture on modern methods of
thought called the "Age of Unrea-
son" to which he asserted that
many scientific men belong. The
whole n rninle of vivisection is

GOODIE,-IT'S WILLIE!
Dear Dan,
They are putting Harding on a
postage stamp. Would suggest Al
Capone, holding an olive brancl.'
Also Nan Britton ought to have her
picture on something. Harding may
not have been father of his coun-
try, but he tried hard in his own
simple way.
For the Black List:
The coed who has calmly appro-
priated my seat in Poli. Sci. I (and
boy! how I hope she sees this).
Buddy Rogers.
Edgar Guest (who, in today's
Free Press, was compared to de
Maupassant). If this be treason
make the most of it.
Well, Dan, I'm getting pretty
sick of all this deriding of coeds.
I wish, in the interest of science,
to go into this thing myself. On
next Sat. night at 8 o'clock I will
stand outside the Mich. Any coed
who will stand in the lobby alone,
wearing a red hat shall meet me
in person. Line forms at the right.
Into the dawn of a new tomorrow,
Dan.
Willie.
Thanks much, Willie, you know
we all love and admire you, but I
shudder at your despicable defec-
tion from the ranks of the Coed
Defamers, inc. Perhaps you don't
know any coeds, though, so well be
lenient.
Mr. Baxter:
Two articles have come to my
notice. Your campaign against
co-eds, and the Washtenaw
Trib's accusation of this Uni-J
versity as a "hotbed of vivisec-
tion." I had not noticed the
second fact mentioned, but evi-
dently the Trib is worried over
an impending shortage of
board-house provender. Why
not play one fact off against
the other (you see what I
mean?) thus silencing both
your's and the Tribune's cease-
less yawp.

'ROLLO'S WILD OAT'
The very popular reception that
.as granted Play Production's per-
formance of Claire Kummer's farce,
'Rollo's Wild Oat" last week-end
has prompted a repetition of the
roduction tonight in the Mendels-
sohn Theatre. The play in a very
-ompetent farce manner deals with
the woes of an adolescent who
squanders his fortune on a pro-
duction of "Hamlet" but falls in
love with the Ophelia, a miserable
actress who likes to sew.
CORNELIA OTIS SKINNER
A Review by William J. (A orinan.
The importance of acting as an
art has been considerably obscured
by the Gordon Craig lust for stag-
ing. It should be a great day then
for actors when a Ruth Draper o
a Cornelia Skinner so thoroughly
vindicates their oft-disputed and
oft-damned art. For these artists
manage theveryessence of drama
ith the body alone. They drive
at the very heart of several realities
with no apparatus of any kind. In
the light of such an evening as
Miss Skinner afforded a large auc-
ence last night, the laboured real-
ism of theatre or even the success-
ful stylization seem for the moment
a litftle pathetic. That uncompro-
mising, typical League red chair
became, by the imaginative force
of a great actress, quite completely
a ship-rail and a Pontiac back- -
seat.
Vaudeville artists made the old
monologue," done in an intense
and unbearably wierd chant (the
extra spoken chorus to "a pal aftr
all is a pal after all), a menace.
Miss Draper and Miss Skinner have
made it a satisfying art-form where
personal intelligence and personal
2echnique can find a happy focus.
Miss Skinner's conceptions-from
"he pathos of the New York poor
.n their Sunday automobile to the
ld Woman at Monte Carlo, senile
nerves and greedy eyes - are all
precisely imagined and articulated.
Miss Skinner is very thoroughly
the mistress of the chameleon's
magic. She adapts herself to a pro-
gram oimpersonations with ab-
sence of effort and certainty of
aim. Her ear for accent, pitch, and
tempo of different characters' tal
-the English lecturer, the Phila -
delphia mother, the Barbadoes girl
-is infallible. Voice and mask to-j
gether are sufficiently flexible to1
give, so to speak, the rythm of
several personalities. Fine sugges-
tive gestures indicate other people,
indicate life and make monologt e'
drama.
Hersketches are carefully, swift-
ly ordered. They are filled with ex-
perience, with intelligent satiric
comment. They are sincere, and
spontaneous. Her technique of act-
ing gives them fine pattern.
The program very nicely ranges
from gracious humour, almost fan-
tasy (in the sketch of the English
Explorer of Africa lecturing cas-
ually to Americans) to satire on the
garrulity and vacuity of the Amer-
ican woman. The humour is charm-
ing (though that of the Goody-
Byes from the Boat Rail is a bit
obvious and familiar). The satire
is incisive, yet stays on the better
side of malice.
She is most significant, however,
when she tries, in the Ruth Draper
manner, for sompething deeper than
humour, satire or impersonation-
for the pointed revelation of char-
acter. The New York peasant
woman, vainly struggling with
brawling children and a snarling
husband (whom she loves) in an

effort to "enjoy the country," the
Barbadoes woman with a heredi-
tary taint, and the feverish lady at
Monte Carlo working out a system,
were the finest things on the pro-
gram.
Miss Skinner's beauty as a lin-
guist, clear enough throughout the
program, was beautifully summed
up in a reading of Emile Verhaer-
1 en's "Le Vent" when the wind lit-
erally whistled through lovely vocal
inflections.
FACULTY RECITAL POSTPONED
The Faculty concert announced
for Sunday afternoon, has been
postponed one week, out of respect
for Dr. Arthur W. Stalker whose
funeral will take place Sunday
afternoon. The concert will be
given one week later, Sunday after-
noon, November 30, at 4:15 o'clock.
At that time the program will be
provided by Arthur Hackett, tenor,

stance Hackett and Mabel Ross
Rhead.
