FRIDAY, MAY 19, 1933 no matter what he might play, but when the Brahms Concerto is the medium of his inspira- tion, he even transcends Heifetz-and that is the very most that could be said of him. Dr. Moore and his Choral Union can well be proud for the very creditable way in which they lived up to the difficult test of appearing on the same program as the great violinist. In any case it would have been unfairly hard to maintain the level of the latter half of the program, but, con- sidering the almost unsingable spots and the ex- treme demands which the score of the Walton work made upon the chorus, they are to be doubly congratulated. "Belshazzar's Feast,", is an easy and almost melodious work in comparison to the Stravinsky "Psalms" of last year-the hard, stark contours of the latter, which is a composite of bitsi and fragments, a mosaic of stone, have been broadened and rounded into flowing sweeps of sound by the Englishman, and consequently the "Feast" gains a continuity that is immediately appreciable. The soloist of the oratorio, Chase Baromeo, was finely suited in the dignity of his voice and man- ner to the demands of his role. Equally well chosen for the singer was the aria from the Verdi "Manzoni" Requien.-Latin, religious subjects, and recitatives are things that few vocalists can do as well as this serious and intelligent basso. The Bax "In the Faery Hills" which opened the program, is interesting, in its admitted emotion- alism, as compared to inevitable expressiveness of the Brahms, which closed it. Arnold Bax always seems washed by the fogs and mists of his native land, so that his orchestral tints blur and pale into an appealing and softly sensuous oneness of color. Only Brahms can write a concerto that is both virtuosic and musical-and it is a tempta- tion to say that only Heifetz can play it as it should be played. But it is entirely safe to state that, this undoubtedly is the violinist at the peak of his career, completely matured and still retain- ing that phenomenal technique which will be one of the legends of our generation. Kathleen Murphy Campus Opinion Letters published in this column should not be construed as expressing the editorial opinion of The Daily. Anonymous communications will be disregard- edi,.-The names of communicants will, however, be. re- garded as confidential upon request. Contributors are asked to be brief, confining themselves to less than 300 words if possible, CO-OPERATIVE APATHY AND TUITION INCREASE have to drop out, that students are more than "incidental." By this same mass pressure we can, and will force the Regents not to raise tuition. We are not interested in the kindness and sincer- ity of the Regents. Those are .irrelevant factors. We are interested only in that they vote, NO TUITION INCREASE. We are not merely negative in our demands. We offer positive ways of balancing the Univer- sity budget, reasonable, sound, fair, and logical. These are included in the Resolution to be pre- sented to the Regents. This Resolution will be in the hands of every student. Every means is being taken to reach all students, particularly those vitally affected. Enough preliminary work has already been done in order to tremendously en- courage the success of today's demonstration. This will be a red letter dAy for Michigan. It will witness a far greater achievement than any football victory. It will sound the opening of a new, broader, student consciousness at Michigan, because of their own mass achievement. It will serve as an example to other colleges throughout the country of what mass united, student action can do to win student justice. Leon Gropper The Theatr I T s C fired? Thirsty?aHungry?

THE FRIEND OF BERNARD SHAW BY ROBERT HENDERSON We find in "Who's Who," the fat red volume about the British notables, that Robert Loraine served in the South African War with distinction and that he also served in the World War from 1914 to 1918, in the Royal Flying Corps, that he was twice dangerously wounded in the air, six times mentioned in dispatches and was awarded the Mons Cross, the Military Cross, and the dis- tinguished service order for conspicuous gallantry and skill in shooting down enemy planes. Curiosly enough, Tom Powers served under Mr. Loraine as a captain in Mr. Loraine's Air Corps during the World War. Besides being a flying ace in the war Robert Loraine is probably the only living aviator who has been flying more .or less continuously since 1910. In that year he held several world records and. made many extraordinary flights. He made the first flight across the Irish Sea, for which he was awarded the Gold Medal of the Royal Aero Club. He made the first flight in a storm, flying from Bournemouth to the Isle of Wight through thun- der and lightning and rain of tropical violence; Bleriot, Morane, Farman, and other experts de- claring it was quite impossible for any aeroplane to live in such a storm so that his death was as- sumed and the aerodrome flag half-masted be- fore news of his safe -landing was received. it III 1 C t E i c 11x It End Of A Student Council... Asupreme indication of the worth- lessness of the body on this cam-+ pus known as the Student Council came Wednes- day in the refusal of all candidates for member- ship on it and the three candidates for its presi- dency to accept nomination. It is not strange that these men refused to allow their names to be associated with the Council. For a year its every attempt at student govern- ment has been characterized by failure so gross that its name has become synonomous with im- potence. The withdrawal of the candidates was followed by the resignation of all members who would have acted on the Council next year, with a single ex- ception, and by the decision of Charles R. Racine, present president of the Council, to call off the elections, which were to have taken place yester- day. Racine's move culminated a semester of consci- entous effort to develop in the Council something of the leadership the student body has a right to have. He failed only because he was trying to make something out of nothing. Nobody will deny that there is a definite need on this campus for a vigorous and sincere Council What has been clearly demonstrated is that under the present system the selection of such a Council is impossible. Thus it is clear that a new kind of Council is necessary. The power to make the de- sired change resides with the Senate Committee on Student Relations. This committee has quite naturally refused to abolish the present Council until proof of its weakness should come. In the events of the past two days the commit- tee has all the evidence that could be desired. A new system for choosing councilmen and a new sort of Council are to be proposed by the stu- dent committee that is to be appointed by Dean, Bursley. Nobody knows what the plan they will offer will be, but we may be certain that it will propose a vast improvement over the sort of stu- dent government we have had for the past few years. -N To The Editor: Today at 2:45 p. m.! ! To the casual reader this means absolutely nothing. And why should it? And when you add that this is the last meeting of the Regents this year, he is equally bored by your exclamation marks. You remind him that this is the day when we must all get together and exert a tremendous mass pressure to avert "a rad- ical tuition increase," (President Ruthven's words), and the reaction of many readers is to quit reading at this point, with a contemptuous "just another Red making a noise." But then, how could it be otherwise? Bom- barded on all sides from almost the very cradle up through his college years by the spirit of "rugged individualism," by the philosophy of get- ting ahead of the next man regardless of what happens to the next man, by an education which molds introverts, which creates a sterile coiling up within oneself -how can the psychol- ogy of this college student be conducive to an all pervading spirit of co-operation, comradeship, group interest, social struggle, mass achievement? The attitude of a great many students toward the imminent drastic tuition increase is one or more of the following: 1. Total ignorance of such a possibility. 2. The vague assurance that somehow it will take care of itself. Besides it's for next year, so why worry now? 3. For the rich students: this doesn't af- fect me. 4. For the very poor students who will definitely be forced out: "Oh, well the tuition increase is the final blow. I'm through. Nothing can be done. What a break!" 5. For the borderline students: "I'll have to squeeze by somehow. A job this summer? A University loan? A job at some fraternity? Why did they have to raise tuition now, of all times?" 6. For the greatest percentage of stu- ents, rich and poor alike: "Don't bother me. I've got troubles of my own." We recognize that these are the attitudes of a tc a MI LTONS SHOP FOR MEN ] 19 South Main Street SLACKS Just Received a New Shipment PI b w I ( { lain white buck and< lack and white, tan hite, two-tone n s, $3 one price . calf, and 75 .45 to $3.45 Anything that you desire in a Slack is here.

Liberty St. When asked why he had made such a desperate light after the committee had definitely forbid- [en him to fly while the storm raged, Mr. Loraine answered that he was tired hearing the aeroplane eferred to as a fair-weather toy and had deter- nined to remove that reproach. Among his many other achievements in aviation he was also the irst to send a wireless message from an aeroplane n flight. It is perhaps unnecessary to add that ae has flown from New York to Detroit for the ehearsals in the Ann Arbor Dramatic Season. In "Who's Who in the Theatre," we find four :olumns filled with the list of parts he has >layed. They show a versatility that scarcely any other player of our time can equal, ranging from Shakespeare's beautiful portrait of King Henry the Fifth, and Petruchio the shrew-tamer, and Benedick the batchelor, to Sheridan's frightened Bob Acres, and reckless Charles Surface, Gold- mith's nervous young Marlowe and Dumas bold 'Artagnan and Congreve's exquisite Mirabell. Somerset Maugham wrote "Smith" and "Loaves and Fishes" for him and at the Haymarket The- itre in London he acted in Barrie's "Mary Rose," Ienry Arthur Jones, "Dolly Reforming Herself," Bernard Shaw's "Getting Married" and as Ru- dolph Rasendyl in "The Prisoner of Zenda." His Captain Bluntchli in Shaw's "Arms and the Mlan" has been described as the finest light com- edy performance of our time. Bernard Shaw him- self wrote of Loraine's performance as Cyrano de Bergerac that it was the most moving piece of acting he had ever seen. Loraine's performance of Strindberg's grim tragedy, "The Father," was hailed by London and New York as the finest acting of our generation. Edgar Wallace wrote in the London Morning Post, "There is no doubt about the genius of Robert Loraine, there can be no question that Robert Loraine is far and away the greatest actor of our generation." I myself saw his performance in "The Father" with Haidee Wright and Dorothy Dix in London. It exhibited a force and macabre power such as I have never seen duplicated before or since in the theatre. That Robert Loraine is a good judge of a play, is proved by the fact.that immediately on reading Shaw's "Man and Superman," he secured the act- ing rights of the comedy and produced it as his greatest success in all the cities of America and in London. It was such a sensation that he was free for some time to retire from the stage and devote his time to his other great interest-avia- tion. From "Man and Superman" grew Mr. Loraine's remarkable friendship with George Bernard Shaw. When Shaw recently visited New York city Mr. Loraine was his host. Recently .he achieved an outstanding success as the miIjister in Benn Levy's "The Devil Passes." He was co-starred with Katharine Cornell this winter in "Lucrece"; and in "Springtime for Henry" he comes to play the comic and befuddled Mr. Jelliwell in a cast, in- cluding Violet Heming, Tom Powers and Rose Ho- bart, that is "all-star" with a vengeance. 0 0 0 0! r You can always save money by spending wisely at M I LTON S.

And yet, in the face of this formidable array of co- operatively apathtic attitudes the NATIONAL STUDENT LEAGUE is confident of the success of today's demonstration. This confidence is based not on -a Utopian faith, but on a careful, prelim- inary, personal contact-survey. Of the 8,000 stu- dents enough are affected to the extent that they are VITALLY concerned over the tuition increase; concerned enough to join together today and voice their demands before the Regents for: 1. No tuition increase. 2. Maintenance of the present faculty-stu- dent ratio. 3. Power of faculty dismissal to be vested in in a democratically elected faculty com- mittee, which shall decide upon all cases of dismissal at an open publicized hearing. At their last meeting the Regents gave non- committal answers to these demands. In effect therefore, they put the matter up to the student body: If you accept like sheep whatever we de- cide, that's fine. If you raise sufficient protest, what else can we do but abide by your demands? "Students are only incidental" to the Univer- sity, said Nicholas Murray Butler, President of Columbia, recently, to the student Committee for Reinstatement of Donald Henderson, who was fired from Columbia for his political activity.
