FRIDAY, MAY 5, 1933 ing about the lousy parts. At the risk of being suspected of being Mr. Crandall's fraternity brother, or a distant mem- ber of Mr. Nestle's family, or of owing Mr. Pozz money-at the risk, we say, of any such suspicions, we wish to come out flatly and admit that those gentlemen turned in three very fine performances. Mr. Crandall especially, in the best and most dif- ficult role, was at all times expert, at all times right, at all times emotionally moving. A good word should also be said for Messrs. Maddin and Williams. But not too good a word, for Mr. Williams' funniness occasionally gave forth a porcine or, and Mr. Maddin as an English schoolboy was hard to like at first. Maybe that's just the English schoolboy of it-they're a bad lot on the stage, always full of exuberance and muffins. Our only serious objection is''an otherwise ex- citing performance was continually interrupted by bad property work-cups without tea in them, plates without food, and machine gun effects that sounded suspiciously like someone stropping a razor. It was especially unfortunate that the Ger- nan bombardment should have its genesis in the kitchen at the right of the dugout. The German who was pounding on the wash tub was the worst. Then there were the accents--approximately six varieties of Cultured English, three varieties of Cockney, and two of Cook Tour German. We object indignantly to having two Cockney char- acters stand before us and sling the word "fat" around as both "faaat" and "faht." But still and all, it was a pretty ekciting show. On behalf of Play Production we want to thank the R. O. T. C. for the. uniforms and the City of Ann Arbor for the misty quality in that bottle of French water. -P. M-.

P. Froinm, '33 Student Health HAY FEVER- Hay fever is the name given to an acute con- gestion of the mucous membranes of the eyes, mouth and respiratory organs. The symptoms are chiefly sneezing, profuse watery discharge from the nose, itching and burning sensation of the nose and the eyes, watering of the eyes, itching of the roof of the mouth, stuffiness due to swelling of the nasal mucous membranes and a feeling of fullness of the head. The skin may occasionally be affected. These symptoms vary greatly in dif- ferent people, with regard to the time and mode of onset, the intensity of the various local mani- festations, as well as their general severity and duration. The term "hay fever" is a misnomer. The malady is neither due to hay nor characterized by any definite rise in temperature. The name was given more than a century ago when hay was regarded by many as the cause, and when the term fever was loosely applied to many in- dispositions. This term of hay fever is now uni- versally in use to designate the train of symptoms induced in specifically sensitive individuals through the adequate contact with specific pol- lens. True hay fever is always seasonal and is, always caused by pollen, the latter being the ex- citing cause. There are three factors essential to the develop- ment of hay fever: A. The presence in the blood serum of the sub- ject of a specific reacting body to which Dr. Ar- tnur C. Coca has given the name "reagin." B. The existence in the same person of a sen- sitizing organ or organs. The particular tissue showing sensitiveness is called the tissue factor. The organ to which this tissue belongs is called the shock organ. The various combinations of clinical symptoms depend on the degree of sensi- tivity of the tissue and the particular set of or- gans involved. C. Pollen, the exciting cause of the malady is the third factor in the mechanism of hay fever. Which plants cause fever? Dr. August A. Thom- men has formulated the following five postulates which may be predicated to pollen in relation to its causation of hay fever (sporadic hay fever is excluded) : . The pollen must contain an excitant of hay fever. 2. The pollen must be wind born as regards its mode of pollination. 3. The pollen must be produced in sufficiently large quantities. 4. The pollen must be sufficiently buoyant to be carried considerable distances. 5. The plant producing the pollen must be wide- ly and abundantly distributed. The various species of plants known to cause hay fever may be divided for convenience into three main groups: (1) trees, (2) grasses, (3) weeds. Consequently we have in the United States three distinct hay fever seasons: Very early type Spring-Caused by pollens of trees. Duration: Early April to Early June. Early Type: Late Spring and early Summer: Caused chiefly by pollens of grasses. Duration: Mid-May to end of July. Late type: Late summer and early fall: caused by pollens of weeds. Duration: Mid-August to early October or until a good, killing frost. The trees whose pollens meet the requirements of the five postulates formulated by Dr. Thorm- men may be divided into the following groups: Group 1. The catkin-bearing trees: oak, birch, poplar, hickory, walnut, beech, alder and hazel. Group 2. Trees producing unisexual flowers (not in catkins): maple, ash, hackberry, sycamore, mul- berry. Group 3. Trees producing perfect flowers: Elm and mesquite. Continued in Saturday's Issue) --Health Service CLASSIFIED ADS DO PAY! MICHIGAN DAILY 11 Tired? Thirsty? Hungry?

TO THOSE WHO PAY THE TAXES, REGENTS AND FELLOW STUDENTS In the light of the present day appropriation cut all unnecessary expenditures by the university should be stopped. By unnecessary expenditures I mean such support of departments of the uni- versity which are not directly productive toward higher learning. Byi the phraseology "higher learning," I refer to that meaning of the word as used in the Editoriala of the Michigan Daily for Thurdsay, April 20, 1933. Sirice, quoting the afore mentioned editorial- "The business of this university, in short, is the acquisition as well as the dissemination of infor- mation;" and expenditures not pertinent to that policy are deemed unnecessary- the least neces- sary department in the university, namely, that! department whose duty it is to enforce the Auto- mobile Regulations, should be abolished. Realiz- ing that I am dealing with logical, intelligent people I shall state the case as I see it and at- tempt to provide a more suitable alternative.

T MICHIGAN STATE COLLEGEt A in East Lansing, the students face very much the same situation that we students face here in regard to the drinking of beer. On Wednesday, the city fathers of East Lansing camet to the conclusion that beer should not be sold in their community. "We don't want the impression to go out that we consider the State College boys a lot of weak- lings," one of the councilmen of the city declared.E "We don't. We have a local situation to face. The town is built right around the campus. Whether bee' drinking is right or wrong, we don't think it would be advisable to have beer available so the boys could stop in and drink between classes. I don't think any fair-minded person would dis- agree. In brief, the gentleman says, "college boys aren't' weaklings but if there is a chance for them to get beer they will drnk it between classes. This would be very bad indeed. It would be a local situation." But the councilman should realize that no col- lege man except a weakling would do this. College "boys," at least the great majority of them, have come to school to get an education. If they drink instead of going to classes they are not getting this education. Their purpose is thwarted. They are weaklings, nothing more. Because college "boys" drink over a week-end when they have little work to do is no indication that they are going to drink between classes if beer is available. Right now, the average college man has liquor available at any time of the day or night. Yet, not one out of a thousand would think of drinking between classes. Although we are not students of psychology, it is our honest belief that one reason that there was so much drinking among younger people, par- ticularly college "boys" if you wish, during the days of absolute prohibition, was because it was naughty to drink. The effect of a beer ban in East Lansing will have a similar result; the effect of a beer ban here east of Division Street will have a similar result. We prophesy it. There is a man in charge of the department, his secretary, the minions of the department com- monly called the cops and their cars all requiring no small amount of the University appropriations to be kept functioning. They most certainly do not carry on for the mere fun of the game or their health, nor do the two cars run without gas, oil, tires and repairs. The above statement may be grossly exagger- ated or grossly slighted-in truth I may be very poorly informed in either direction but in either case the fact remains ,this department does not push toward "higher learning."

Liberty St. Do not assume that I believe everyone is capable of managing an automobile-there are some peo- ple who, no matter how long they drive, will never be acknowledged capable of driving. There are already laws functioning in the state for the control of such individuals. There are already people employed to see that these laws are en- forced. Why should the taxpayer pay double for something already provided? He should not! This situation can be handled at half the pres- ent cost by the State police as they handle non- student citizens who infringe upon the laws with a minimum of assistance from the university. The solution is this': The University should require all students using cars to register them with the University and to carry insurance for them. No insurance, no car permit. This ruling would function in interest of both the student and the public. Those stu- dents who could not finance insurance surely could not finance a car; those who could finance a car would be protecting themselves as well as the public. Anyone found violating the insurance rule would be expelled. The students would be allowed cars with this one proviso under the ruling that if at any time a student should have an accident for which he is proved legally responsible in court, exceeding a certain set monetary limit, he would lose his driving permit. This proviso would also be a further guarantee that the public would be pro- tected-the- undesirables would soon weed them- selves out of the flower bed of driving.

"At Both Ends Of The Campus" If it is considered naughty for students to drink beer, and the city councils of both Ann Arbor and East Lansing seem to think that 'it is, there will be a big parade of students from East Lansing to Lansing and from east of Division to west of Division when the clocks of the two college cam- puses chime the closing hour of classes.
