traditionally consider their right. No particular good
will come of that. Until students can be made to feel
the responsibility for their own actions outbreaks will
cotinue on every campus in the United States.
Since it is fairly clear that the outbreak here could
have started only among fraternity men, we believe
it specifically the duty of a student body, the inte,-
fraternity council, to investigate the matter and o
provide a suitable remedy.

.50 A MATTER OF ETHICS
i Street, Ann Arbor, (Penn. State uoilegian)
1214. It is difficult to understand the average college
man's conception of ethics. He would scorn to rob a
bank, he would frown on refusal to pay honest debts,
and yet he blatantly displays towels and silverware
.. David M. Nichol "lifted" from hotels and other establishments he has
.Carl Forsythe visited.
Beach Conger, Jr. Perhaps it is a feeling that such items as towels
heldon C. Fullerton and silverware are common property. But a little
garet M. Thompson thought will show that they are rigidly on a par
with any other form of private property and, as such,
James Inglis should be viewed with all due respect to the owner's
Rosenthal rights.
iiia Gate-crashing is another collegiate breach of
ethics. Some college men boast openly of the num-
Charles A. Sanford ber of dances they have crashed, much as the Indian
would flaunt his scalps and take pride in the heap
n W. Pritchard he had been able to capture. Particularly proud is

l1ary Cut
Hoover?
LARY cuts seem to be the order of the day
uring the present depression both in business
in government. An adjustment to the true
of values at the present apparently calls forj
finite depression from the way most people
accustomed to live and spend.
n our state government this situation has been
I by the governor and probably will be by the
lators. An honest and effective porgram has
laid down with the view to balancing the
ret. Most important perhaps from the stand-
t of public opinion and the tax payer's morale
>een the Governor's gesture of cutting his own
-y fifteen per cent, the same percentage of eco-
y which he has recommended to the legisla-
as the reduction which must be met by the
>us institutions of the state.
s a gesture to'the people of the country as a
e, why does not President Hoover cut his own
y by a substantial amount. It is obvious that

better how subtly the intentions of the legislators
and the theory underlying the tax.
Amusement taxes such as this are intended to
strike, not productive activities, but the excess in-
come used for recreation. They are meant to increase
the cost of luxuries while leaving money earmarked
for necessities inviolate. This tax, however, will pinch
college activities which are now regarded as nccs-
sary to the health and welfare of the students. Foot-
ball is the support of all other college sports, for it
is the only one which draws crowds large enough to
pay.. If the new tax is passed by the Senate, the
revenues from football will inevitably cr e. t
would be unwise to make up the deficit by an inca
in the cost of participation in sports. Accordingly, to
support the facilities for exercise, the income of ath-
letics would have to be increased by money which
would otherwise be devoted to strictly academic uses.
The new bill places an unfair burden on college
athletic budgets. It is intended to tax luxuries, but
it taxes what has become a necessity. When the
Senate considers the bill, it should, with due regard
for the immunity of educational institutions from
taxation, make some amendment allowing college
sports to go untaxed.

THE BAND CONCERT
A Review
By Jerry E. Rosenthal
Last night's band concert, although not particu-
larly impressive on the whole, gave ample proof of
the fact that the value of concerts by local musical
organizations is too often hidden by the grandeur
and glamor of professional presentations. It is little
known by local music patrons that the band, espe-
cially in the last few years, has given Ann Arbor its
only tastes of the unusual, whereas the various
professional programs have been content to present
only the standard and the commonplace in a much
less impressive fashion.
Respighi's "Pines of Rome," of which the band
played the fourth movement, "Pines of the Appian
Way," is a pertinent example. Although this work
is played only by symphonies (and many times at
that), it was the band which ventured to give an-
other interpretations of it and in this it certainly
succeeded. Symphony orchestras, in their rendering
of this work, are too temperate and mellow. At least
the spirit which Respighi obviously tries to bring out
is not wholly present with strings and softer orches-
tration. A band, moreover, better portrays the swell-
ing expression and grandeur which is typical of the
score, and the brass, which is surely more stirring, if
sometimes harsh, amply portrays this grandeur.
Not that the band presented it perfectly-it could
have done better and one felt throughout the num-
ber that there was a restraint which prevented a full
expression. It was different, however, and although
it failed to gain the recognition the "Bolero" did last
year, the importance contained in such an adventure
as a band interpretation cannot be totally passed by.
The Liszt "Les Preludes," which the band has
played often, was not the emotional thing it usual'
is. Again the restraining influence which marked
the Respighi number was present and the symphonic
poem, the themes of which have never failed to raise
a feeling of exaltation, fell short of its previous hear-
ings.
Mention must certainly be made of Jan La Rue.
the youthful clarinetist who played the difficult sec-
end and third movements of the "Concerto in E flat
Major." Although a trifle unsteady and uncomfort-
able at the beginning, La Rue showed a sincere an
surprisingly mature knowledge of his instrument in
the third movement.
