NIGHT EDITOR: A. ELLIS BALL
A New In terfraterni ty
'Council
HE STORMY SESSION of the In-
terfraternity Council Tuesday night
brought to the surface an opinion which has been
forming in the minds of a number of those who
have worked with it through this and past years.
This opinion is that, as it now operates, the Inter-
fraternity Council is an inept, uninteresting, and
impotent organization.
No one who has attended many meetings of the
Council can question the validity of this criticism.
To wait regularly for periods of an hour or more
until a quorum can by dint of a great many tele-
phone pleas be assembled, to listen to intermediate
discussion of projects which never seem to fructify,
is to reach the point where other than an unfa-
vorably critical conclusion is impossible. It would
be a marvel that so many as seventeen votes were
cast at the meeting Tuesday for continuation of
the council, were it not for the conviction that
most of the seventeen voted either as inexperienced
delegates of a congenitally conservative bent, as
persons hopeful of the hollow spoils of office, or
as men who out of pride felt they had to defend
their handiwork.
Any consideration of the just criticism which
must be levelled at the Council as it has existed
points to the recommendation that the Council be
abolished; we agree with the decision of the ma-
jority in Tuesday's unofficial vote, which favored
radical change in the Council's set-up, i.e., the
substitution for it of a new body.
We believe that two factors are at the base of
the Council's unworthiness. It must be emphasized
in passing that neither of these concerns the offi-
cerial personnel that has functioned during the
current year. The two factors which we condemn
are first, the official connection of the University
with the Council, specifically through the Coun-

cil's Judiciary Committee; and second, the activ-
ities which the Council has deemed its proper
goals.
The first fault, the one which was most heavily
scored night before last, is luckily very easy to
overcome. The evil of University interference can
be cured, once and for all, by the simple expedient
of eliminating it. In whatever body takes the place
of the present council, that is, let there be no con-
nection, official or unofficial, direct or indirect, with
the faculty or administration of the University. We
are not at liberty to divulge names, but we wish
to tender the information that several persons
high in the administration believe that such a di-
vorce would be logical and healthy.
The second criticism is susceptible of more

AT THE WHITNEY
Double Feature
C "KING FOR A NIGHT"
Chester Morris Helen Twelvetrees
"King for a Night" is a picture with a punch
in it, being the story of a small town boy who
fights his way to the light heavyweight champion-
ship of the world. Executed with quite a good
amount of novelty and restraint, it has some gen-
uinely good moments for which it should be com-
mended. However, there are several weak spots
which reek of sentimentality and shades or trite-
ness that prevent its being as good as it could
have been. Chester Morris gives an admirable per-
formance in portraying an egotistical but sin-
cerely purposeful young man' whose success is his
tragedy. He is ably assisted by the blond Helen
Twelvetrees, who this time is not the sweetheart
but the little sister whose adoration of him
gets him into all sorts of trouble. Alice White
(remodeled nose and all) is cast as her usual self,
and she fits in quite well with the general trends of
the picture. "King for a Night" is slightly above
being mediocre, but is not far enough to be con-
sidered valuable entertainment.
E "CROSS STREETS"
John Mack Brown Claire Windsor
Anita Loos
If you miss the old days of the movies in which
college sentimentality and loose women were para-
mount in importance in the lives of old grads,
don't miss this rank, impossible, rottenly-executed
story of a drunken doctor who gives his all for
the happiness of the woman he once loved. In it
you will see the complete degradation of John
Mack Brown as an actor, the resurrection of Claire
Windsor as a leading lady of no worth whatever,
and the most awful direction you ever witnessed
in a moving picture. E represents extinct in this
case. -C.B.C.

FIRST CONCERT
In Review
THE FESTIVAL went off with fireworks last
night, with Rosa Ponselle, colorful, brilliant,
dramatic as she is, the chief display of the eve-
ning.
The arrangement of Stock's came as a surprise,
accustomed as we are to hearing Bach treated in a
conservative style, with no harp, no gong, or glock-
enspiel, celeste or triangle. Whatever its relation-;
ship to the original, the Bach last night had res-
onance, color interest, and clearly marked voices,
especially in the Fugue. "La Mer" of Debussy, for
those who know the sea in its calm or its sparkling
moods, felt the movement of the water, then light
and sound that play within it. This sea was not ter-,
rorizing even though full of strength and power.
The Ravel "Rapsodie Espagnole," full of insinuat-
ing rhythms, under Stock's organizing left hand,
was another descriptive piece, gay and alluring.
Of Ponselle it can be said that "charm strikes
the sight but merit wins the soul." Bringing opera
to the concert stage in her arias, using her voice
with every nuance, securing smoothness, she com-
bines, as has been said many times and much bet-
ter, personal captivation with technical excellence.
Her last encore could have been omitted in order
to allow the concert to end on a high psychological
point.
The concert proved the aavantage of personal
appearance and contact with an audience, over
the radio, where, until television is perfected, the
show of such a performance is lost.

COMMITTEE FOR THE THIRTY-EIGHT
DESCRIBE MAY DAY DEMONSTRATION
To the Editor:
At a meeting held Monday night twenty-three
students in person and ten more by proxy, elected
us, a committee of eight, to present to the campus
the true story of the May Day trip to Detroit. We
were instructed to protest against our maltreat-
ment by the Detroit police, the misrepresentation
by the Detroit press, to voice our special disap-
proval of the vicious editorial in the Daily written
with the view to influence opinion against us
before the facts were known, and to demand an,
investigation of the police rather than of the
students.
It has been the custom during the last few years
for a group of students to participate in the
May Day demonstrations. This year a group of
thirty-eight students composed largely of radicals
and liberals who wished to show their solidarity
with the working class and to protest the infringe-
ment of civil rights, several students of sociology,
and a few others interested in observing the dem-

Collegiate Observer
By BUD BERNARD
A chemistry instructor at the University of
Maryland asked a student for the formula
of water. The student answered HIJKLMNO.
When asked what the big idea was he ex-
claimed, "That's I to O isn't it?"
Graduates at the University of Kentucky are
listed in a pamphlet called "Bargains in Brains,"
in which the picture of each graduate, his age,
height, chief interest, and experiences are listed.
The plan was used last year with the result that all

but two graduates were placed.
Here's a pet tongue twister from a Speech class
at the University of California. If a student gets
through this one without biting his tongue he can
qualify to take the course: Theophiles Thistle, a
successful thistle sifter, in sifting a sieveful of un-
sifted thistles, thrust three thousand thistle&
through the thick of his tongue; now, if Theo-
philes Thistle, a successful thistle sifter, in sifting
a sieveful of unsifted thistles thrust three thousand
thrcugh the thick of his thumb, see that thou
in sifting a sieveful of unsifted thistles thrust
not three thousand thistles through the thick of
thy thumb.

Next year at Missouri University special flunk-
proof course are offered for "dumb" students and
others not interested in a college degree. Students
of low college ability often make good if allowed
to enter special work in which they are interested
but almost never get through school if they are
forced to take required subjects.
of police prevented the Detroit people from assem-
bling in the park. Seeing that there was no meet-
ing we drove through part of the park and the
neighboring streets cheering and singing workers'
and school songs. A squad of motorcycle police
surrounded the truck and ordered us to follow them
out of the city. Instead of leading us out of the
city the police forced us down a side-street border-
ing the river where they ordered us out of the
truck. Although we obeyed orders explicitly and
gave no provocation for attack, two policemen
boarded the truck, addressed us with obscene lan-
guage, struck several of us with blackjacks and
