Whether you like "Hips, Hips, Hooray" or not depends entirely upon what you think of these two gentlemen and their fast-moving, farcical type of comedy, because there is very little else in the picture. Of course, there is Thelma Todd's figure, Dorothy Lee's aren't-you-cute-expression, and Ruth Etting's singing (which, incidentally, is presented only once). "Hips, Hips, Hooray" is a series of scenes that have been pieced together in a rather helter-skel- ter manner in order to present an hour or so of entertainment. There is virtually no plot except for the fact that the boys are in the cosmetic business, more or less, and that by some amusing bluffing they link themselves up with the "Maiden America" company, which is owned by a very delectible floozy in the person of Thelma Todd. They get into one mess after another, are con- stantly chased by detectives, and finally become involved in a cross-country automobile race. This last item puts them in situations which because of their absurdity are highly entertaining. Ruth Etting sings "Keep Romance Alive;" Dor- othy Lee and Bert Wheeler make goo-goo eyes at each other while singing "Keep on Doin' What You're Doin'," and Robert Woolsey says "Whoa" with his typical inflection, which always is good for a laugh with some people. Among the added attractions is "Scotland the Bonnie," a travelogue which is worth the price of admission alone. There is an "Our Gang" com- edy, however, which makes one wish that he had' not paid it. -C. B. C.

To the Editor: I wish to call to your attention an erroneous statement in your editorial of March 24 entitled "Mr. Farley On His Racket." You call the Roosevelt program, or lack of pro- gram, constructively socialistic when it is noth- ing of the kind for the following reasons: First, industry under the present administration is not publicly owned and democratically controlled. Second, the administration is making no attempt to make the incomes of the people equal or nearly equal. Third, it is employing the old capitalistic taxation method of redistributing income. The contradictions between the above men- tioned editorial and Frances Perkins' speech of March 23 are very striking. Miss Perkins has al- ways been described as one of the most liberal members of Roosevelt's cabinet. Yet even after her declaration of faith in the capitalist system, you print an editorial calling the present admin- istration socialistic. Miss Perkins states that the system must be revised so that consumption balances production. If consumption were to balance productiohthe workers would have to be paid the full value of their labor. And any system in which the worker is paid the full value of his labor is not capitalism. She also says that for the present system to work properly workers and owners must co-oper- ate .Anyone should be able to see that there can be no co-operation between those whose interests are diametrically opposed. Would one expect co- operation between the butcher and the lamb? The Honorable Secretary calls to our attention the large increase in mail order business in the cotton belt where farmers have benefited from acreage reduction on programs. In order to analyse this statement we must first make an investigation of the farming methods in that section of the country. Most of our cotton is produced by tenant farmers called share croppers, who are living un- der a slave system as bad as chattel slavery. The government paid huge sums of money to the own- ers of cotton producing farms to plow under cot- ton. Note that this money was paid to farm owners, not farmers. As a consequence of acre- age reduction of cotton lands share croppers are being driven out of their homes by the thousands with no place to go, and nothing is being done for them. This is just what we might expect from the administration for Roosevelt has said that his aim is to restore profits. Miss Perkins dreams of a capitalistic society in which there would be prosperity for all. Now, prosperity is a comparative term and if there are any inequalities in the standards of living of dif- ferent classes of people those with the most are the prosperous and those with the least are the poor. Under capitalism inequalities are a natural result. Therefore we can not have prosperity for all under capitalism. -Bradley A. Smith o egiate Observer , othSat tre t! l1 I1 11 1I I Hill Aud.

NIGHT EDITOR: WILLIAM G. FERRIS Professor Waite Looks At The Detective Story. .. L AW. PROFESSOR John Barker Waite is becoming quite an author. Last week we announced publication of his latest book, "Criminal Law In Action." Now we find, leafing through the magazines, that he has an article in the current Scribners, called "If Judges Wrote Detective Stories." The article as well as the book is well worth reading. In it Professor Waite points out that ' the realities of arrest, search, and detainment of criminals are at marked variance with the popu- lar conception of them presented in detective Pic- tion and entertained by the public. In the ordinary mystery story the police in- vestigate every clew that their ingenious minds hit upon, detain everyone in any way implicated, and make no bones about arresting all possible suspects. In real life, Professor Waite points out, this procedure is illegal. Written warrants are necessary for all criminal-capture activity unless the officers of the law have reasonable grounds for belief of built -and it is extremely difficult to convince the courts of reasonability. It makes no difference if the criminal is cap- tured, or if irrefutable evidence of his guilt is ob- tained; no conviction can be had, if the counsel for defense knows his business, when the police stray so much as one inch from the tortuous path that leads through the thicket of arrest and search technique The police don't always know this, of course, and sometimes a mistake slips by. But the bene- fit, which may accrue to the public in such cases are illegal. Whether he. knows it or not, Professor Waite's article is an eloquent plea for criminal justice re- form, "In nine-tenths of the cases before the courts," he says, "the judicial rules of arrest are invoked to save the, guilty." A code which oper- ates nine out of ten times in favor of the wrong party is a bad code, and ought to be abolished. Indoor Track, Willis Ward :. . M ICHIGAN'S track team has just completed its most successful in- door season in years. The Big Ten and Butler Relay championships,. two triangular and one dual victory - that's the record they've put on the books. Now that it's over, bououets are being handed WAHR'S BOOKSTORES State Street MAoin Street SMusicalEvents FACULTY CONCERT IN REVIEW Sunday's concert in the Faculty Series was both well-chosen and creditably performed. Mrs. Case and Miss Nelson were graciously received and pre- sented their four numbers with marked co-opera- tion. Clementi's B-fiat major Sonata, with which Mrs. Case and Miss Nelson opened the program, seemed to lack in performance both the precision of at- tack and the excellent interpretation which char- acterized the numbers to follow. The audience was most receptive to the Saint-Saens variation of Beethoven, in which Mrs. Case and Miss Nel- son had ample opportunity to exhibit music dis- tinguished by its logical and highly accurate work- manship. This is truly a Saint-Saens piece, for only the slightest traces of the great German mas- ter are discernable in its charming and enter- taining finish. Miss Newell opened her group of numbers with Tschaikovsky's Conzonetta, in which she did not seem quite able to fully grasp the sensitivity and deep personal element so closely associated with this Russian composer. In the Mozart "Men- uett" and the "Alumblatt" of Wagner-Wilhelmj, however, her presentation was highly pleasing. Her interpretation of Mozart's great classicism evidenced the lucidity and melodiousness which is requisite. The efficiency with which she per- formed Kreisler's "La Gitana" was roundly ap- plauded. Mrs. Case and Miss Nelson closed the concert with Tailleferre's "Jeux de Plein Air" and the "Coronation Scene" from Moussorgsky's opera "Boris Godounoff" arranged for two pianos by Lee Pattison. The harmonious, folk-like qualities of the former seemed well adapted to these two women, especially Miss Nelson, whose work here was delightful. The depth and power of the latter number was at times vivid, at other times somewhat obscured, yet it did not ever actually falter. -R. S. It. To alternate with the Varsity Band and the Varsity Glee Club tonight at the Jamboree, the Ukranian Choir, from Detroit, under the direc- tion of Leo Sorochinski, will sing two groups of Ukranian Folk Songs. "The Gondoliers" opens Thursday night at the Lydia' Mendelssohn Theatre. As Othr1s See It -- - -- --i' BOBBY JONES SHOOTS A SEVENTY-SIX Bobby Jones knows now what the hemlock tastes like. Fancy his stumbling and fumbling and staggering and reeling through 18 holes and totaling up the card to learn that par was grin- ning at him in malicious triumph. His score was 76. Is the word ignominy? Let it go at that. But ignominy is no rare portion for a golfer. In fact, we dare to venture that everyone who has become seriously involved in that game has known those dark and dreadful moments when all was lost, when there wasn't the sliayhtest uhiff of ,.. , ? .i, ..Y,. A 1 !Ah By BUD BERNARD It has been proposed that the school week at Massachusetts Institute of Technology be short- ened to five days. The boys of this school will have no classes on Wednesday afternoon or Sat- urday morning if the plan is adopted. One professor: "I am utterly opposed to it. I think the thing is absolutely absurd. Any ten- dency to turn the school into a factory is most ill-advised." Another: "I am in favor of the experiment. It would give the students more time for their work as well as more time for their recreation." After much consideration we have voted this week's "boner" prize to the professor at Clemson College who rushed into an empty classroom, cursed the class for cutting, and then discovered he had come to an eight o'clock instead of a nine. The catalog published by the Oklahoma A. & M. College lists a course, "Nut Culture," with this explanation, "study of pecans, walnuts, etc., not; maniacs.", One of the industrious freshman tryouts has asked me to use his following master- piece. It is to be sung to the tune of "Reuben, Reuben": insull, insull, ive been sinking all my dough intuh your stock wont yuh plees cum home n help me get my trousers out of hock? (Yes, that's what Daily tryouts do in their spare time). When a scientist conserves energy, they call it wonderful and marvelous; when a college man does it, they call it laziness. There is a story concerning a freshman at Ohio State University who wanted to trans- fer to the University of Vienna because he heard that it was one long loaf. Necking and dancing, says the University of Maryland Daily, can be distinguished. One is done to music. * * * Perhaps the smallect college in existence is Huron College in London, Ontario, where a fac- ulty of five teaches twenty students. bones of par lie moldering in vanquished me- moriam to Bobby Jones.
