get things done around here. So you see what
happened. Stadium seats 85,000. Known from the
rock bound coast of Main to California's suhhy
shore. Two All-Americans this -year. A $25,000,-
000 endowment, 6,000 students, 500 courses. Great
gym. All the old buildings torn down and new
ones put up. A swell alumni association. And I'm
planning great things. Hell, we at Colridge haven't

Colridge College is no isolated case. There are
plenty of similar institutions, and they respect no
geographic boundaries. They are a definite part of
the American educational system. It is one of our
contributions to world culture.
And nothing can be done about it.
Screen Reflections
- -------
her appearance last fall, and succeeded in giving
a force to her characterization which was the
more effective in its quietness. As to Eilert Lov-
berg, the lines were perfect in themselves, and Mr.
Harrel' could have managed' them even better
than he did. Furthermore, the whole play was
built on the fact that Lovberg was the one moun-
tain Hedda could not move. In view of this fact,
Mr. Harrel should have counteracted Miss Cohen's
personality with more personal force of his own,
James Doll as Judge Brack was, as he usually is,
enjoyable. It seemed to me that Edward Freed did
not pierce Tesman's character quite as much as
was possible. However, this role might be called
the most elusive in the play. The impersonal spe-
cialist has been so often a caricature, it is quite
a task to present him seriously and sympathet-
ically yet preserving the "impossible" quality, par-
ticularly when the impersonator is a young man.
In fact, considering the various elements in Tes-
man's character that required attention one can3
say Freed was successful, certainly more so than
any other student on campus could have been.,
Gladys Diehl as Miss Juliana rounded out the cast
while Billie Griffith's Berta showed promise of a
future Play Production figure.
Ini conclusion, one must again give thanks to
Mr. Windt for a stimulating evening. It was with
regret that one noticed the postponement of "The
Rivals." -M. S.

FRIDAY FEBRUARY 24, 1933.
Union Haircuts
The Union is still charging 45 cents for hair-
cuts. Every other shop in town is charging 35
cents. The Union, a student club, is a non-
profit organization and exists solely for the
students. Yet the Union will not meet the town
rate.
How To Build
A College...
C OLRIDGE College was a small, de-
nominational institution situated
at the foothills of the Adirondack Mountains in
New York state. For the first fifty years of its
modest existence Colridge yearly graduated 200
or so nice'young men, who, armed with the Latin
and Greek which was Coridge's forte, returned
to their rural farms and small towns to preach,
teach, enter law, or join medicine shows. The
name of Colridge was famed only in a small sec-
tion of Mohawk Valley, and not even the scholar-
ly, patient, hopeful president, the Rev. Dr. Philip
Perkins, A.B., L.L.B., Ph.D (all Colridge) dreamed
of the day when the college would be reknowned
throughout the land. Dr. Perkins thought that
Yale was Yale and Colridge was Colridge, and
that, like the proverbial twain, never would they
meet. That proves what a fool Dr. Perkins was.
They got a new president at Colridge in 1920.
He was a leading citizen of Colridgeville. He had
begun as an apprentice in a blacksmith's shop and
worked himself up until he owned a chain of ga-
rages and gas stations in the valley. Mr. Roy Bill-
Ingswell (that was his name) as his first official
act appointed "Stiff-neck" McGoiwn to coach
Colridge's football team. No university president
in America ever made a wiser move.
McGoiwn could teach football, More important,
he could get good- football players to enter Col-
ridge; particularly when he was backed by a
sdholai'ship fund created by Colridgeville's mer-
-ehants. The merchants were wise. They knew that
a good football team would mean bigger crowds,
an increased enrollment, more business for Col-
ridgeville's merchants.'
McGoiwn had the administration abolish its,
Latin and Greek requirements. Then he traveled
from one high -school in New York State to an-
other, giving inspirational talks (he was a splen-
did talker, especially after two shots of whiskey)
to the girls and boys. Afterwards, he would get
the star players into the corner and make them
his offer. Upon hearing MeGoiwn many a poten-
tial gridiron brilliant forgot Cornell, Syracuse,
Columbia and the rest, Colridge was the place
for which to die.
Well, the team became known. It defeated
Union, Hamilton, Niagara, and wonder of won-
ders, Syracuse, in McGoiwn's second year. That
gave them a game with Cornell. They won. Col-
ridge and McGoiwn were made.
Since then it has been simple. Colridge played
other teams in New York, then in New England,
then in the east, and today, the Colridge eleven
(accompanied by its 150 piece military band) is
known to every family in America; that is, to
every intelligent family, interested in the -cultural
advantages of higher education. -

'THE MATCH KING"
***ENTERTAINING STORY FROM
THE LIFE OF IVAR KREIGER
Paul Kroll ..............Warren William
Marta .................... Lily Damita
Ilse - .......................Claire Dodd
Babe.................Glenda Farrell
Sonia ................ Juliette Compton
Erik .......... .........Hardie Albright
The fantastic history of the Swedish match
king, Ivar Kreuger, was the basis for a most'en-
tertaining story by Einar Thorwaldson. Ivar and
his partner Toll were a fabulous pair who talked
and acted in millions and the mention of their,
names always brings forth a jet of eager specula-
tion, rumour, and significant glances in .financial
circles.
Warren William is most fortunately cast in the
role of Paul Kroll (the latter name a contraction
of Kreuger and Toll) for he is most adept in the
portrayal of a character both suave ,and forceful,
genial and enigmatic.'"The Match King" records
his rise from a custodian in a baseball park,'where
he indulged in his first graft, to the position of
czar of European governments-a super-monopol-
ist who re-financed wobbly ministries fin return
for sole match concessions in the state concerned.
Lily Damita is piquantly beautiful as one of the
four important women in Kroll's life. Claire'Dodd,
Juliette Compton and Glenda Farrell are the'
others. It is inferred that there were many more.
Miss Farrell will be remembered as the drunken
actress who protested the injustice of her twins
in "Life Begins."
Call the match king Kroll, Kreuger, Toll, or
what you will, the visions which his name in-
evitably brings up often lend .a cieepy touch to
the conversation. It is reported,' perhaps unre-
liably, that no one ever saw the 'dead body of
Ivar Kreuger. The story goes that Kreuger, over-
come by the ruinous debts that were piling up
about him following the market crash, retired to
his apartment one nght and shot himself. News-
papers were told-that Kreuger had committed sui-
cide, and that his body was 'now sealed in a
casket. Only minor French officials (and so sus-
ceptible to bribery, the gossips say) ever saw the
body. And so whether he is "safely" -buried at
present or whether he -is alone with 160 million
dollars is problematical. .
Warren William, who at present is undergoing
the usual comparisons attendant- upon Whew star-
dom, appears as one of the most reliable actors
on the screen today. "They" say he is a John
Barrymore. In the same manner, George Raft is
called a Rudolph Valentino and any actress im-
ported from the continent is another Greta Gar-
bo. "The Match King" should lend William,
among other things, some reputation for orig-
inality.
And don't overlook Hardie Albright as Erik,
Kroll's faithful attache, or the fact that "The
Match King" is well worth anybody's time.
Added attractions: Harry ILangdoli in "The
Hitch Hiker"-a rather funny comedy which is at
its best when Harry is trying to cure his cold
en aeroplane; Paramount News; Betty Boo-p 'in
"Betty Boop for President-below standard.'

HEDDA GABLER
Ibsen's "Hedda Gabler" is being presented by
Play Production to Ann Arbor audiences this 'Week
at the Laboratory Theatre-
This interesting play dealing with a woman who
wanted more thanl anything in the world to be
able to dominate, shape something worthwhile
was enthusiastically received Wednesday evening.
Ibsen dramatically twists events in "Hedda Ga-
bler" in such a manner' as to afford considerable
thought material throughout with sufficient- left
over for further contemplation, George Tesman--
the specialist with such a feeble clutch on the vi.
tally important elements in life devoting his lift
to an unselfish ideal for the memory of a man
he had despised, but whose ability he admitted;
Judge Brack-that clever opportunist who so
shapes circumstances as to best benefit himself
but who is found saying at the and, "People' don't
do such things"; Eilert Lovberg-a nan of strong
will and powerful originality ending his life 'mis-
erably in a woman's parlors; and Heddu Gabler
-that dynamic figure who threw her full per-
sonality into a desperate attempt to control some-
one, anyone, becoming a slave to one and of no
use to another, whilst Mrs. Elvsted, a little woman
who had never dreamed, or cared, to command,
became the controlling factor in each situation
at the same time lacking those qualities Hedda
had, and which one would suppose she should
have had-these people are revealed to us by
Ibsen. Their lives aife caught together, mingled
and we find not the usual play with the usual
moral, but thought material. Ideas are here, and
it was these ideas that held the audience Monday
evening.
As a production "Hedda Gabler" was indeed
creditable. The staff went to considerable trouble
in creating the Victorian atmosphere needed-

According to a dry Congressman, repeal
