THE MICHIGAN DAILY Columbia Pape' Charges Upheld. By Investigation Republican Insurgent Play Production Will Presen t Elmer Rice's 'Adding Mcichine' John Jay Dining Hall Is Found 'Tyrannical' In Attitude To Employees New Probe To Start To See That New Regime Is Administered Under Precepts Now In Force NEW YORK, Oct. 5-Three of five maladministration charges directed against John Jay dining hall by the Columbia Spectator, Columbia Uni- versity student n e w s p a p e r, last spring, have been upheld by an in- vestigation committee composed of faculty and student members, ac- cording to the Spectator. Attacked Dining Hall Then edited by Reed Harris, stor- my petrel of university newspaper- dom, the paper alleged that the din- ing hall managerial staff "tyran- nized student employees," that "lack of co-ordination" regarding to du- ties and functions was present, that foreign substances were found in the food served to the students, that the halls were run for personal profit, and that the quality of the food was unsatisfactory and the prices too high. The first three of these charges were upheld; the last two denied. Inspection of the investigating committee of the bank accounts and income tax returns of two prominent employees of the dining hall failed to reveal any appreciable income "over and above that received from the university as salary." Eduard Panchard, food expert, was summoned by the committee for a test of the food. Panchard pro- nounced it satisfactory, and called the menu "well-balanced." T h a t foreign substances were present in the food is admitted, however. Receive Recommendations Recommendations for a new re- gime were advanced by the commit- tee, which advocated that "more at- tention be given to the preparation of foods and ways of serving them," and that food-checking and account- ing systems be inaugurated. Fur- ther clauses in the report urged med- ical inspection of employees and that "to avoid any appearance of favor- itism, the proportion of students par- ticipating in inter-collegiate sports employed in the dining rooms be lim- ited to the approximate proportion of such students in the student .body." To Consider Report Further The university commons commit- tee will organize a group in the near future which will further consider the report and will take added ac- tion, it was announced. The attacks begun upon John Jay dining hall attracted nation-wide in- terest to Harris as the inaugurator of the crusade. Action finally was deemed necessary and Harris was expelled only to be later reinstated. He then resigned immediately, and has published a book .entitled "King Football, the Vulgarization of the American College." Y. M. C. A. Celebration In Honor Of Founding Observance of the eighty-eighth anniversary of the founding of the Young Men's Christian Association is planned by the local chapter of that organization for Tuesday night. Ferdinand N. Menefee, professor of engineering mechanics, will be in general charge of plans for an an- niversary dinner, while Prof. I. L. Sharfman of the economics depart- ment will be in charge of tickets and publicity. . _ ._ "The Adding Machine," Elmer Rice's noted expressionistic play of a decade ago, will be the first offer- ing on the 1932-1933 Michigan dra- matic season, which begins on Oct. 28, it was announced yesterday by Valentine B. Windt who will start his fifth season as director of Play Production which will stage the play. Casting and rehearsals have al- ready begun. The play will be pre- sented in the Laboratory Theatre which begins its third year as the showhouse for the dramatic classes. "The Adding Machine," one of the first successful American expression- istic plays, was first played in New York in 1923 and enjoyed a highly-s successful run. Since it has left the boards it has proved popular with little theatres, its uniqueness of plot and setting being looked upon as a precedent in the American theatre. The story is a swift and poetic treatment of the experiences of Mr. Zero, an office drudge. His life is all figures interrupted only by the nag- ging of his wife. He has worked 25 years as a clerk in the office of the boss who fires him to make way for the newly-invented adding machine. In a fit of temporary insanity he kills the boss and after having given himself to the police when they call at his. house and proclaiming his guilt in court, he is sentenced. He is transported to the Elysian' fields where life and characters there are portrayed through his eyes. After he has been put to work on an adding machine and had his soul cleansed he is ordered task to earth despite his protests. T is in the Elysian fields that he learns "the mark of the slave is upon him" and that he will commence life over again and again with that mark. Tickets for the performance of the plays will be placed on sale at the Laboratory theatre .box-office soon.

Thieves Steal $50 From Sigma Alpha Epsilon Fraternity A possible resumption of last year's epidemic of fraternity house1 robberies was indicated early yes- terday when the Sigma Alpha Epsi- lon house, 1408 Washtenaw avenue, was entered and approximately $50 in cash stolen. It was the second fraternity robbery of the semester. According to members of the fra- ternity, the outer door was left un- locked and, as sleeping quarters are in a dormitory on the fourth floor, the intruders had free access to the study rooms on the second and third floors. Nothing else of value was disturbed. The first robbery occurred early last week at the Alpha Tau Omega house on Cambridge Road, where $100 was obtained. The situation, tending to provide ample opportu- nities for prowlers, was the same as at the Sigma Alpha Epsilon house, according to members. Ann Arbor police advised that all houses keep their outer doors locked. Reception For Wilbur Stanford University graduates and alumni who are now attending the University of Michigan were layingj plans yesterday to organize for the presentation of a welcome to Ray Lyman Wilbur, secretary of the in- terior and president of Stanford, who will speak here Oct. 13.! If enough former Stanford stu- dents are interested in the project, the alumni plan to give a dinner for Mr. Wilbur. Organization for the welcome is being conducted by Daniel D. Gage, 1207 S. State street, Tele- phone 2-3369. Signal Not Observed Three persons were slightly in- jured yesterday afternoon in a head- on collision on U.S.-J12, seven miles west of Ypsilanti. The three were Agnes Wroben, 37, Albert Wroben, 41, and W a l t e r Kmieecik, 22, all of Detroit, passen- gers in a car driven by Walter Bas- tula, 27, of Dearborn. Bastula failed to observe a flag signal from a steam chovel operator and struck a truck driven by Lester McComb, 41, Clin- ton, officials in the sheriff's office -aid.

First Woman Named To Beta Gamma Sigma Business Administration Honor Fraternity Elects Edith V. Egeland For the first time in the history of Beta Gamma Sigma, national scholastic honorary fraternity of the School of Business Administration, a woman has been elected to mem- bership, it was learned yesterday from Prof. Ernest M. Fisher. Edith V. Egeland, '32BAd, has the distinc- tion of being the only woman mem- ber of the society. Miss Egeland, who is employed at present in the Bureau of Statistics in the University, was graduated from the School of. Business Administra- tion last year at the head of her class, automatically making her eligible for membership to Beta Gamma Sigma, which usually elects the upper 10 per cent of the graduat- ing class to membership. According to Professor Fisher the unprecedented election of Miss Ege- land will probably serve as the stim-. ulus for the future election of other women who meet the scholastic re- I quirement of Beta Gamma Sigma. University Will Offer Construction Course A short, intensive course in bitu- minous materials in road construc- tion beginning Dec. 15 and continu- ing through Dec. 24 has been an- nounced by Prof. W. J. Emmons, as- sociate professor of transportation and director of the state highway laboratories. The course is similar to those held in the last two years as a result of requests from city and county en- gineers throughout the state for fur- ther instruction in highway con- struction. Mornings will be taken up with lectures by Professor Emmons on such subjects as tars, road oils, and other bituminous road materials. The afternoons will be taken up with practical work in the l a b o r a to r y where Professor Emmons will be as- sisted by Mr. E. A. Boyd of the labo- ratory staff.

Tele- phone men evolved a plan to make it easy to find. They created a "Where to Buy It" service in the classified telephone directory. There-beneath the advertised trade marks -Buick, Goodrich, RCA Victor, General Electric and many others now list authorized local dealers. Thus telephone men complete the chain between advertiser and consumer -increase the effectiveness of advertis- ing - help manufacturers and dealers to increase sales - help consumers to get what they want! Because they apply vision to subscribers' prob- lems, Bell System men continually increase the value of telephone service. Oct. 25, BOSTON SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA SERGE KOUSSEVITZKY, Conductor.
