If Student
Graded Teachers.. ..
WHEN THE UNIVERSITY loses near-
ly2,000 students by graduation this
June, some attempt ought to be made to get the
frank opinions of these men and women, most of
whom have spent four years here, as to what they
think would improve the University.
It is nearly impossible to go through four years
of active mental exercise without having a defi-
nite thought as to something here or there that
might be improved in the present set-up. While
much of the criticism would be founded on preju-
dice or half-baked thinking, there would, we be-
lieve, be a considerable amount of valuable changes
recommended.
The student sees the University in an entirely
different light from the professor. While his com-
ments, from a scholarly point of view might be
less worthy of consideration than those of the
faculty themselves, the student would have the
advantage that he is more intimately connected
with the problems which his immediate successors
are facing, The professor, although he may have
years of teaching experience behind him necessarily
has not faced the problems of the student himself
for several years.
Conservative members of the faculty will wince
at the thought of too close a contact between the
administration and the students, believing that
such contacts would tend to weaken the prestige
of the faculty, since they might then feel dependent
upon student popularity for their positions - an
intolerable situation.
The answer to the objection is that student
reports would have to be considered for what they
are, and that while popularity with students should
not be given precedence over teaching ability, it is
often a good indicator of it, merely because it is
easier to learn from a likable teacher. Furthermore,
it is not to be supposed that every senior who has
received a poor grade from an instructor would take
the opportunity to get back at him for it. Such
criticisms could be spotted and discounted.
The criticisms might be given to a committee
under the President, and the wheat sifted from
the chaff. Good suggestions would find their way
into investigations and, finally, if approved, into
reforms.
Loyalty to the University is better served by
careful criticism than by dumb allegiance. Im-
provement and reform are necessary if the Univer-
sity is to grow with the times..
It would be perhaps too difficult for the adminis-
tration to send official questionnaires to all grad-
uating students; but if this cannot be done, then

AT THE MAJESTIC
C "BLOOD MONEY"
Bill Bailey .............George Bancroft
Elaine Talbert ........... .Frances Dee
Ruby Darling. ......... Judith Anderson
The latest Schenk-Zanuck 20th Century produc-
tion has some difficulty in getting to the average
entertainment level, but thanks to Miss Dee's hard
work it manages to make it. In this latest of Ban-
croft vehicles, the star is once again the friend
and behind-the-scene influence of the underworld
and its colleague, the political ring. Acting in the
capacity of a bond salesman, Bill Bailey is the
friend of the crook in need as well as playing big
brother to poor little society-bored debutantes
who want excitement. Elaine is one of these, only
she has the bug much worse than any of her
friends. As a matter of fact she is a kleptomaniac
whose hobby is to go shop-lifting for the thrill of
it. And when little bad girl meets big bad bank
robber, it's a case of love at first sight. And she
does all the looking. Bill goes bail for this crook,
only to have him skip out on him. He gets in bad
with the underworld by having the crook arrested,
and his life is threatened. Comes the dawn, the
rescue, the denouement, and the end of the film.
As mentioned before, Miss Dee's portrayal is the
only commendable one of the lot. Watch her rise to
success. Her work in "Little Women," "Coming Out
Party," and now in "Blood Money" marks her as
an actress of that rare quality, sincerity.
-J.C S.
The Theatre
THE PSYCHOLOGY FANS, the literary folk, and
those garden variety of playgoers who want
just good entertainment will all be catered to
when the Ann Arbor dramatic festival opens with
Alfred Sangster's "The Brontes" at the Lydia Men-
delssohn Theatre next Monday night, May 14. The
play will continue for seven performances. It is the
first of the series of five plays in the festival.
The play, newly named "Charlotte, Emily and
nne" because of the more advantageous listing in
the alphabetically arranged New York newspapers'
theatre columns, comes to Ann Arbor after a week
of near capacity audiences at the historic Pabst
Theatre in Milwaukee. (The theatre seats 1,600.)
The original production rai for 305 performances
in London.
This is said to be the first time that Ann Arbor
has had virtually an Ane'ican pireniere of a play
with the same cast that will b, seen by Ntvv York
later.
This Bronte play vividly re-creates the atmos--
phere in the Yorkshire parsonage where the
preacher father tyrannically dominated his daugh -
ters and prayed over his worthless son. It shows
Emily Bronte, the genius who wrote "Wiithering
Heights," in bitter conflict with her father, re-
belling against his domination and demanding the
right to live her own life.
Contrasted with the in-growing personality of
Emily who could not bear that others should even
read her writings, is the personality of Charlotte
Bronte, a plain little person, timid, fastidious, af-
fectionate, eager to reach out amd share her love.
It is not surprising that she, who had grown
up motherless in the forbidding parsonage on tlthe
moors should adore Belgian M. Heger, the youni
man with whom she and Emily study when finally
they open a school of their own.
It is mouse-like Charlotte, all eyes and eagerness,
who wrote "Jane Eyre," the book that rocked Vic-
torian England. And it was plain little Charlotte
who persuaded her cold, forbidding, strange elder
sister to publish her poems and novels - although
Emily who had poured out her soul in Ihem pro-
tested that she Would die if the world should read
them.
Ann Arbor will see Violet Kemble-Cooper, dis-
tinguished Theatre Guild actress as Emily; Eliza-
beth Risdon, also a leading Guild player as Char-
lotte; Francis Compton, a favorite here, as the
Rev. Bronte and Robert Henderson, the festival's
director, as Branwell Bronte.

"ALL GIRL REVIEW" On the Stage
Boyle Woolfolk's "All Girl Review" lives up to
its reputation as a fast, breezy, amusing stage
presentation. There is some talent in the gang's
roster of thirty-five; and where that element is
missing there is substitution of pep and enthusiasm
that more than compensates. Informally staged
and nicely clad, this tabloid musical review has
everything in it. The four Albee Sisters blend their
voices in some pleasing harmony in addition to
going in for a bit. of burlesque. The two Dawn
sisters are clever comedians and stopped the show
with their comedy pantomiming. Mistress of cere-
monies, Maria Paris, introduces the acts anddoes
it with a minimum of words. Another thng to be
thankful for. Dell O'Dell has the audiences doubled
up most of the time with her pseudo-magic. And
the feature dancer, ElaineaManzi, skilfully toe
dances her way into the hearts of the audience.
Of course one can't forget the hard-working chorus
who execute many routines of merit. This show is
all comedy, and for once they led our famed-
razzing-audience on a leash. They actually made
the customers behave.
On the screen is "The Poor Rich," a delightful
comedy that glorifies a one-reel-comedy idea into
a full-length picture but gets away with it. The
combination of Mr. Horton with Miss Oliver is a
happy one. Don't worry about the story. That is
just incidental. Poor people trying to give the im-
pression of wealth is its theme. Take all these
comedians, Horton, Oliver, Devine, Todd, Hyams,
and Grant Mitchell, mix them up. Shake well and
serve for about an hour, and you have a non-
sensical concoction that will tickle your ribs. It is
always good for a laugh. But that's as far as it
goes. The screen play was directed by that veteran
comedy director, Edward Sedgwick, from an orig-
inal story by Ebba Havez and Dale Van Every. To
summarize: it is an all-comedy show that offers
plenty of laughs to the classroom weary college
student. -J.C.S.
Let's say
something
about
women and
Drewrys
Ate
Women seem to prefer it to beer,
because Drewrys' taste is mild
instead of bitter.
They also prefer to serve it in-
stead of highballs when there are
men in the party because Drewrys
has all of the kick of a highball
without any of the kick-back.
And that's very important
in making a high-spot evening
with a mixed crowd. Drewrys,
in spite of its mild taste, has
plenty of authority. Don't worry
about that.

A.J.S., '34E sent me in the following contri-
bution.
TWENTY-FIVE YEARS AGO: A sophomore
literary student in the University while walk-
ing along State Street and paying no particular
heed to where he was going, found himself
dropping through a manhole, the lid of which
was off to permit dumping in a load of coal.
He emerged looking anything but clean, and in
spite of a sprained wrist, laughed as he saw the
humorous side of it.
I'll bet he was walking up from Division
Street.
The president of Rollins College believes that
play should be as important a part of a student's
life as work. Classes at the college are over at 3:30
p.m. and no outside assignments are made by the
faculty.

SECOND FESTIVAL CONCERT
In Review
THE GREAT SPECTACLE about the May Fes-
tival is the massing of Choral Union on the
stage, with its pied color on both sides of a stripe of
black, the orchestra gathered together, waiting
for the appearance on the stage of the artists and
conductor. If Choral Union were as spectacular to
the ear, even as Levitski is, it would have been a
large evening. As it was, the soloists carried the
laurels away with them. Perhaps because it was
the initial performance, perhaps because Haydn
is treacherous stuff to do en masse, the chorus did
not do as well as it might have. The balance be-
tween choirs was uneven, the altos being most re-
liable; attacks were somewhat slow. Only occa-
sionally was the orchestra slightly overpowering.
There were good spots, of course, in climaxes. "Hail,
O Glorious Sun," and "Hark! the Mountains Re-
sound," the women's united voices in "Let the
Wheel Move Gaily" and the grand "Amen," re-
deemed the efforts of the chorus. Jeanette Vree-
land, as Jane, was utterly charming, with her ex-
quisite voice, and precise singing: "O How Pleas-
ing to the Senses," the recitative, "Ye Swains," her
Fraternities at Union College recently held a
"dirt throwing" party. All the fraternities rep-
resented had large signs painted on which
appeared such remarks as "If you're a drunk-
ard join the D.U.'s," and "If you can't go
fraternity, go Pi Lamb."
