Robert E.' ghastly creature of the night. He stumbles halt- ingly across the campus, a picture of utter wear- ness; climbs the library steps with great effort; enters the study hall and drops a book listlessly. upon the long counter. '1 This sad creature is no mere figment of the imagination. He is a stark reality created by the tyranny of library rules and he has countless counterparts. Early last evening, he entered the, library to read a book required for his sociology or history course. Shortly after 9, he signed an over- night slip and took the book to his room. Into the wee hours of the morning he read to complete his assignment. But there was to be no rest for him. Now at 8 o'clock he is forced to return the book. Suppose he had not come back until 9? Then he would have been politely informed that he was in- debted to the library in the sum of 25 cents (price not reduced since depression). If unable to pay because of personal financial condition or bank holiday, he would receive several nasty notices and finally his grades would be withheld at the end of the semester. There is no apparent reason why library books should be returned at such an early hour. No one but a few demented bookworms could want to read them at that time. We believe that no book is needed back in the library before noon, but, if library authorities cannot mend their rules so radically, it would surely not be difficult to set a more decent return hour such as 10 o'clock.

The famous "St. Aran's Fugue" of Bach, which derives its' name from a thematic resemblance to the old English hymn tune called "St. Ann," is one of the great! est organ classics in existence. It will be followed by the new symphony of the English organist, Weitz, who has named each of the movements of this work after the traditional Latin hymn theme on which ,they were based. This symphony has a great sweep to its structure that builds up to an altogether thrilling climax in the last movement. The Seven Pastels of Karg-Elert may be said to be the outstanding contribution to organ liter- ature, by one composer, in the realm of impres- sionistic writing. The Mirrored Moon which will be played today is one of the most exquisite ex- amples of poetic music that has ever been written. The Franck Choral in A minor has -been called "absolute idealism set to music." This great work;, one of the most highly inspired pieces in modern music, opens with an ;energetic figuration which later becomes the musical embroidery for the choral melody and reaches heights of religious sublimity that could only have been gained by this idealistic genius. --Kathleen Murphy hELL WEEK DANGERS! Four years ago University officials placed a ban on "hell week" at the campus Greek-letter houses. Such action was taken because school heads be- lieved the perverted spirit of playfulness and tom- foolery was outrunning the original aims of hell week-the instilling of ideals in its.pledges. There would be little harm, and perhaps much good in a hell week directed toward this purpose. However, regardless of the action taken by the University in an effort to abolish the ancient tradition, the organizations secretly continue to enjoy their pet antics throughout a half dozen or more days. "Hell week" has lived on in many of the houses largely because several of the members, having gone through the same torture, humiliation and brutality themselves, can see no cause for a let- up. Their antics have been "glamorized" in hearth-side talk fests. During the next month, freshmen all over the campus will be subject to such things as sleeping in "gunny" sacks, trekking on road trips, carrying1 all kinds of cigarettes and gum, addressing all of, the upperclassmen as "sir,' and inserting the po- lite term after every word of conversation, enter- ing their houses only through windows or back doors, walking up the stairs backwards, carrying rotten eggs in their hip-pockets for the entire week and participating in many nondescript "games." The jigsaw too has afforded aijple' op- portunity for more midnight "torture." Several deaths have been recorded as a result of objectionable elements of hell week. Either hell week should be abolished altogether or be carried on openly in a milder form. --Indiana Daily Student. SUGGEST BOOING COURSE An indispensable trait of Auburn culture, boo- ing at basketball games, manifests one of thef finer points of Auburn aesthetics. No game would' be complete without such a display. No man is an Auburn man unless he can loose a lusty boo when the referee is not acting to suit him. Our suggestion is that a course be taught in the' art. No freshman is properly equipped for a col- lege career here unless he is a booer of the first water. Why not institute a Grand Council of Boo(e)rs among the upperclassmen and have them instruct the freshmen at the beginning of= the year? Not only does booing exhibit one of the finer instincts of the Auburn man, but it also displays' a lofty regard for good manners. The referee must feel booeyed-up when the mob howls at him. It' makes him realize the innate good sportsmanship of the spectators. -Auburn Plainsman' i T THE MICHIGAN DAILY capital punishment, to be 'a distortion of moral justice to lessen the penalty merely becau ,e of a' _ _ _ _ _ _ _ happy conclusion to the crime. - True enough, legal principles deny the possi.-_____ bility of recogniZing motive as equivalent to ac- tio n .

With my business associates I worked elbow-o-elbow, desk to desk. With my instructors, I had had no rela- tionship save in the most formal way. The lecture system is a process by which the contents of the professor's notebook are transferred by means of a fountain pen to the student's notebook, without having passed through the brain of either. As for recitation, if anything is to be learned, it is the student who should question the teacher, not the teacher the student. Did anybody ever get an education by being a sponge?" Thaticonstitutes a rather wholesale indictment of an educational system, which, with the possible exception of the seminar, is practically 100 Per- cent existent here. Mr. Holt stresses the idea that fact accumula- tion is impossible under the present educational regime. Whether the personal "contacts" made on campus are of sufflicient value to counteract the impotent lecture-recitation-bluebook regime is doubtful. No less a personage than President Alexander G. Ruthven has on more than one oc- casion emphasized the lasting value of student friendships, as opposed to the more effervescent formal learning, which is popularly supposed to fade away 95 per cent within a few years after graduation. The lecture and recitation system subtends an- other and greater evil, that of note-taking. Fear of inability to commit to memory a given recitation assignment, or fear of inability to re- tain certain facts until examination time by other means than the fountain pen results in mass note-taking. And notes are invariably burned or otherwise destroyed at the end of the semester. Is that worth our $100 fees? Those who have made education problems a life study prophesy great upheavals in the present "sponge" lecture-recitation system. Perhaps the editorial room association which Mr. Holt found so helpful may be made the basis of learning through contact, rather than a temporary soak- ing-up. Eight O'clock Library Tyrann. . . .7*W "ANOTHER LANGUAGE" ENDS CIVIC SEASON' By GEORGE SPELVIN "Another Language' made theatrical history inE New York by running a solid year in one of the worst seasons Broadway has known. Now De- troiters are applauding the show into a second week with Patricia Collinge and Lester Vail star-, ring in the last bill of the season at the Bon- stelle Civic Theatre. It will continue through next week. Miss Collinge and Mr. Vail as Stella and Vic Hallam are the youngest married pair of a trouble-ridden family. Miss Collinge brings to the role of the young wife, trying desperately to save her husband from family despotism, one of the brightest talents as a comedienne in the theatre. She was starred with Francis Lederer this fall in the New York production of "Autumn Crocus," was one of the outstanding guest artists of the Ann Arbor dramatic season last spring, and scored a brilliant hit with Joseph Schildkraut in the re- cent Broadway run of "The Affairs of Anatol." Mr. Vail's return will be good news to the many friends he won during the first three weeks at the Civic Theatre this fall. As the youngest of the four Hallam boys, his role is that of a man torn between conflicting loyalties, the tyranny of a despotic mother, and love for his young wife fighting the family ties. As Mother Hallam, who rules the destinies of her sons and their wives with a tyranny of sweet sarcasm and fainting spells, Helen Ray has another such role as the dominating mother she played in "Best Years." Robert Henderson will be Jerry, Stella's nephew who bears an intense and tender love for his beautiful aunt. Also in the cast will be Ainsworth Arnold, Francis Compton, Amy Loomis, Howard Phillips, Mildred Todd' and Alan Handley. Editorial Comment INTENT TO KILL "If the Mayor dies, Zangara, already under an 80-year sentence for attempted murder, will be charged with murder, which carries the death penalty." This sentence, taken from a news des- patch from Miami, seems, from an ethical view- point, to strike a definite note of injustice.
