Welcome Home
The Victors..
I N THE GAME yesterday Mich-
igan mounted another rung in the
ladder leading to national championship. The
game was hard fought; many writers will say that
Illinois had the upper hand. But when the gun
went off the score was Michigan 7, Illinois 6.
At three-thirty this afternoon the team will re-
turn. A large crowd will be at the depot to meet
them. Students, faculty members, and towns-
people who want to help give the men the pep
they will need if they are to continue undefeated
will be on hand to show their enthusiastic appre-
ciation with a royal welcome.
Judge Sample's
'Public efender'. .
In this story of the nineties there is a good at-
mosphere built up for the plot which concerns
itself with the battle between Steve Brodie and
Chuck Connors for the position of toughest and
best man in the Bowery. In the beginning Con-
nors operates the best saloon in the district, and
Steve Brodie is becoming a more and more dan-
gerous rival for him. Each one is the leader of a
volunteer fire brigade, and the main object of
each when someone yells "Fire" is to get his men
together and to be at the fire before the other.
A street fight ensues, and the whole Bowery takes
part, completely neglecting the blaze. Chuck and
Steve continue to exchange hostilities, and when
Lucy Calhoun, a sweet, penniless young thing from
Albany, appears, the competition becomes more
acute than ever. Present at all events in the pot
is Swipes McGurk. Swipes is an orphan whom
Chuck picked up in the gutter and made his
protege. Steve and Chuck compete for Lucy,
Swipes, the Bowery, and a stronger hatred of
each other until Steve is driven to making his
famous jump from the Brooklyn Bridge.
"The Bowery" is an excellent vehicle for Wal-
lace Beery's entertaining personality, George
Raft's sleek egotism, and Jackie Cooper's boy-
hood appeal. Each one does an excellent charac-
terization, making the story quite real. Contrary
to Mae West's "She Done Him Wrong," this story
has very little feminine appeal, the slight emo-
tional trend being entirely masculine except for
those parts in which Fay Wray is present. It is
good light entertainment.
The added attractions at the Majestic include
a Merrie Melody cartoon, a comedy containing
some accomplished acrobats, and a news reel in
which are shown Mrs. Roosevelt, Prima Carnera,
Frances Perkins and others all offering a contrast
to the gay nineties, the Bowery, and Ta-ra-ra
Boom De Ay.

UNDERGRADUATE COUNCIL
DISCIPLINARY ACTION
To the Campus:
In answer to numerous inquiries, I am taking
this opportunity to clarify the past action of the
Undergraduate Council disciplinary committee.
Four cases have been passed on the faculty dis-
ciplinary committee. In each of these cases the
identical recommendation was made -two weeks
suspension. In two cases the recommendation
was followed verbatim, in two other cases the two
weeks stipulation of the student committee was
removed and the penalty made indefinite suspen-
sion.
There have been numerous other cases where
individuals and groups have been warned - in
some cases verbally, in some by a formal hearing,
and in some by mail.
Hopwood Poetry
A'
THESE poems, "Windy Eucharist" and "Pity the
Dead," are by E. Florence Swanson, Grad. For
permission to publish them we are indebted to
Poetry, in whose pages they first appeared. Miss
Swanson is competing in the Hopwood Contests
for the first time this year. On Tuesday the
poems will be reviewed by Mr. George Helm of
the English Department.
Windy Eucharist
I am so straitly bound to earth that I must cry
To birds that flock across the morning sky,
Saying, "Deliver me, I die."
And all the while
Under their wind-tossed file
Of frail omniscience, I revile
Earth sweet with springtime, roots released
Out of strong ice, imprisonment ceased,
And the sleek wild things come to feast
On new green grass and water flowing free,
The very Eucharist that should be
Wine and nourishment to me.
Fool that I am, who have not had
Grace enough to make me glad,
For whom all tenderness is sad;
Who to this banquet bring no sweet
Vessel of ointment, wipe no feet
Worn with rich travel, and more fleet
Than mine that lag along the way:
Since I must watch birds fling the day
Under their wings, and enviously cry,
Saying, "Deliver me, I die."
Pity the Dead
Pity the dead who lie in impervious prisons
With their still hands precisely folded, and their
eyes
Forever bandaged against the surprise of morning.
Lest they should ever come forth in happier dis-
guise,
Lest they should ever become as sweet as wind
and rain,
They are constrained to stay as dead men ever.
Now while I live there have been walls enough
To keep me from the full sweet savor of living,
And when I die I would have even my flesh
release me.
Washington
Off The Record
By SIGRID ARNE
GEN. HUGH JOHNSON, recovery chief, has a
powerful swing to his walk and a "bark" in
his voice that frightens off the timid.
But a startled office boy can attest they create
the wrong impression.
The boy walked into the general's office to find
him lying on the floor, reaching under the carpet
in an attempt to change some wires that lead to
a buzzer in the outside office.
The General had found out that the buzzer was
so loud it got on the nerves of his secretarial
staff.
THE human factor in the recovery program
crops up even in the legend of cold figures
being collected by the administration through the
President's re-employment census.
An Iowa employer had a novel plan for taking
up the farm surplus. He advised that married
women be forbidden employment so they could
stay .home and raise families that would eat up
the surplus.
One business man added a postscript which
said:
"I employ one man and have no use for him.
He is my wife's brother."
"5ISTIE" DALL, little yellow-haired grand-
daughter of the President, went shopping
with her grandmother.
She was intrigued particularly by a glass paper-
weight containing two dice which she could shake
around.
To the store clerks she whispered that she
would be back to buy it for her grandfather "so
he can have some fun."
EVEN the periodically heated hearings in the
senate's investigation of the stock market draw
nothing but "parlor cussing" from the commit-
tee's chairman. Senator Fletcher of Florida is
addicted to "dang it."
Senator Carter Glass of Virginia rips off a
snorting "dad bum it" when he is riled.
WHEN President Roosevelt made his Russian
announcement he handled the matter in a
manner worthy of the sharpest of the trained
newspaper men facing him.
Some hundred orrespondents w'ere ushered
into the President's office. Then the door was
locked.
Itwas the first time any such order had been
given. But the President wanted to give the
men all an even chance in the dash for tele-
phones.

FINANCIAL experts keep an eagle eye on car-
loading as an indication of the health of
business.
But General Johnson, who is responsible for
the administration's plan to revive business, has
his own favorite index.
"Never mind loadings," says the general. "How
many overalls are selling?"
PROBABLY the first potatoes that ever took a
parachute jump turned up in a fluffy, mashed
condition on the White House dinner table re-

UDGE GEORGE W. SAMPLE is
reported in the local press to
have advocated the substitution of a public de-
fender, elected by the people, in all criminal cases
in place of counsel employed by defendants.
His plan would violate one of the most sacred
principles of common-law freedom, for it would
remove from the judge and jury the decision of
guilt or innocence and place it in 'the hands of
this official.
"He (the public defender) would reveal all evi-;
dence for an acquital if he believed the respon-
dent innocent of the crime charged," Judge Sam-
ple has been quoted as saying. "If, however, he
believed the respondent guilty, he would take no
prolonged steps to bring about liberty, but would
demand justice the same as the prosecutor."
Besides being a violation of the rights of free-
dom, this plan, if it were put into effect, would,
in our opinion, be a violation of the section of
the State constitution which guarantees the re-
spondent "assistance of counsel for his defense."
According to the judge, this should apply only to
those who are adjudged innocent by the public
defender, whereas those whom he thinks are guilty
should be denied this privilege.
All that would be necessary to hold a trial of a
man would be to ask the public defender whether
the respondent, in his opinion, were guilty or
not guilty. If he said not guilty, then the respon-
dent could have a trial according to the law, with
his constitutional rights fully upheld. If on the
other hand, the defender ruled him guilty, let'
the learned judge of the law pass sentence on
him without further ado. Such a procedure
should boost the judge's number of convictions, if
nothing else.
We can see Judge Sample's point. It is much
harder to decide a case when the counsel for the
Disciplinary action at this University is handi-
capped by the lack of suitable penalties. There
are three possible at the present:
1. Probation. This means practically nothing
unless the indiviual is interested in some extra-
curricular activity. To my mind it is doubtful,
then, if removing some man from the healthful
competition of a campus activity and giving
him a couple hours more leisure time every day
is advisable. In cases of poor scholarships, pro-
bation has merits, but in cases of conduct it is
usually leisure time that has caused the trouble.
2. Addition of hours. This penalty regardless
of its merits cannot be applied now as the fac-
ulties are discussing it, and for the present
are opposed to its application.
3. Suspension. A university ruling, "ifa student
is guilty of public intoxication he shall be sus-
pended from the university." Consequently 1
under the present system we must either let a
student off entirely or place him on probation
(which is a close equivalent) or else we may
suspend him.
There are many cases where a student merits
some punishment but does not deserve being sus-
pended for the semester or year. It was for this
reason that we established the precedent of two
weeks suspension. The individual' is sent home
and a letter is sent to his parents explaining the
action. He must at the expiration of the two
week period present a letter from his parents to
his Dean stating that they have talked the matter
over with their son and asking that he be rein-
stated. This penalty is based on the theory that
the home can do more for the individual than the
university. It is the system in use at several east-
ern colleges.
In closing I might say that our disciplinary com-
mittee has no spy system, that we don't go around
looking for misconduct cases, but that every re-
commendation thus far taken has been in cases
where the offense was so pubplic as to result in
arrest. In each case the individual pleaded guilty.
If anyone has any suggestions for the better-
ment of student disciplinary action, or if anyone
can suggest any other suitable penalty, the com-
mittee would be glad to hear-from them.
