Bruce, director of the division, in writing for a reeent issie of "The I American Scholar," as a program of study de- csigned to maintain the medical practitioner at a certain standard of -fitness.-for service-during his professional years. A need for the wide-spread establishment of such a system is readily seen. Any doctor, in order to be a competent practitioner, must, of course, keep himself abreast of the newest methods of diagnosis and treatment. Frequent advances in medical science over a period of years are more than likely to leave an old-fashioned, small-town family doctor sadly lacking in knowledge of techniques. In this profession, more than in any other, it is absolutely imperative that the practitioner receive postgrad- uate training. The many benefits already accruing from the work of this department warrant its continuedw existence here. Not only that, its unqualified suc- cess would seem to indicate definitely that a similar program in other parts of the country is desirable.

NIGHT EDITOR: THOMAS E. GROEHN Extension Of Radio Service... HE MORRIS HALL radio studio closed its broadcasting season Fri- day. The University in a recent report valued the free educational advantages furnished to adults and children in the state by the campus studios this year at $935,338, as against a total operating cost of $4,000. The fact that the year's programs have gained great acclaim and popularity can be observed from the figures released by Station WJR over whose facilities the campus programs have been broadcast. Whereas there were only 600,000 listeners to these programs last year, there were close to a mil- lion in radio audiences of the University programs this year. This definitely points to the fact that the broadcasting service, under the direction of Prof. Waldo Abbot, has gained more popularity with the people of the state. Appreciation for the programs this year is voiced in the thousands of letters of acclaim and interest received by the studios. That Station WJR appreciates having the Uni- versity of Michigan on its schedule, is evidenced by the fact that WJR affords broadcasting time and much of the equipment free. They provide times in the afternoon and evening which they could otherwise use for commercial purposes. This shows that they consider the University series a worthwhile service. It is indeed regrettable that such a valuable ac- bivity as the campus broadcasting service must close at such an early date as April 1 because of he limited budget afforded to it. It is to be hoped that next year the service will be allotted a large enough budget to allow it to operate the full school yeatr. Undoubtedly the people of the state are as much nterested in the educational information that they receive from the faculty of the University in the talks over Station WJR in the spring months as they are during the fall and winter months. Possibly it is difficult to induce members of the faculty to prepare talks for broadcasting when the vern'al urge of spring is calling them outdoors. But to close so early a service which has provided for the state close to a million dollars in educational values, because the University cannot afford or will not invest enough to keep it running for at .east a month longer, seems a crime against those who benefit so greatly from the broadcasts. Postgraduate By BUD BERNARD We recently heard a stcry about a very cc zky lad from Iowa State. When he graduated, by scme ill chancA of fate, he landed a job with the New York Times. Of course this made him all the more cocky. In due time, he began to bcthcm all the men around the office. Finally, cne day the editor sent hits to get a statement from Irwin S. Cobb. Brsting into the privacy of Mr. Cobb's of- fice, he began with his customary ego: "Mr. Ccbb, I'm Hicks from Iowa State. I've accept- ed a position with the Times and thought I'd drop over and see if you had a statement for the press." The humorist was in a bad mood, so he growled back: "Do you know what we do with hicks in New York?" "Mr. Cobb," replied the conceited lad, "I don't give a hang what you do with Hicks in New York, but I do know what we do with Cobbs in Iowa." The Indiana State Legislature is considering a proposal to insure against injury or disablement of all football and basketball players participating in regularly scheduled games of Indiana schools, col- leges and athletic associations. According to the advocates of the proposal, this would be a very wise move as all too many students are forced into athletic competition because of their superior abil- ities, and are unable to pay for any subsequent resulting doctor bills which may be occasioned by any unforseen accidents. Certainly the frequency of accidents in modern sports has not become so great that insurance companies should not show a sizeable profit on any such insurance they claim, and certainly the innumerable students who meet with serious injuries each year would be greatly assisted by such aid. Here is a humorous story coming from the University of Texas. A young man, at that institution, got an "A" for the first time in his mental career and immediately wired his folks to tell them about it. To be sprightly, he added humorously that he had suffered a nervous breakdown as a re- sult. Four hours later a dust-covered car skidded up to his fraternity house door and out stumbled his parents. The lad's "stopless" telegram had read, "Off- spring Gets A Nervous Breakdown May Re- cover. College editors already know, at least most of them, how closely President Roosevelt is guarded by the secret service. A group of them were waiting in an anteroom to see the President. The door opened and they began to file inside. One editor said good-naturedly to another: "Come on, comrade." The word "comrade" was enough - the lads were immediately grabbed by huskies and thoroughly searched. A junk man recently rapped on the door of the Delta Gam sorority at the University of Illinois and asked the young co-eds who an- swered the door whether they had any beer bottles to sell. "Do, we look like we drink beer?" was the retort. "Pardon me lady," said the solicitor, "do you have any vinegar bottles?" r -- 11i 1. ..

Ruthven is either a member of the National Stu- dent League or on its payroll, or the League has been secretly hired by the President to further his efforts in effectuating legislative appropriations favorable to the University. If this isn't so then we are forced to the conclusion that "A Michigan Man" . . . who wrote in The Daily for March 19 has "in order to gain a modicum of odious pub- licity" cut his own throat, betrayed the students, the faculty and the University itself, to use the very words he slung against the National Student League. How did this mess come about? "A.M.M." wrote that "there is a determined movement in the State Legislature to abolish the educational mill taxes and force educational institutions to be dependent on direct appropriations from the gen- eral fund," that the "mill tax is the lifeblood of this university" and that "the National Student League has engendered the Legislature's action," thus cutting the throat of everybody concerned. The Daily for Friday' crashed through with a news item right into "A Michigan Man's" bread basket. It stated that ::The Reed Bill, which was intro- duced into the Legislature Feb. 18, proposes that the income of the University shall be taken from the general fund," that this bill is "also sponsored by President Alexander G. Ruthven," that "Pres- ident Ruthven indicated he was in favor of the substitution of the general fund for the state prop- erty tax as the source of the University's in- come ..." Now what's to become of "A Michigan Man"? It must be taken for granted that President Ruth- ven knows what's good for our University; the N.S.L. seems to be "just like that" with the Presi- dent on this question. Knowing President Ruth- ven's political complexion, we must conclude that he and the N.S.L. are a bunch of conservatives; which places "A Michigan Man" on the other side of the fence . . . . --A True Michigan Man. t 11 J." , . t{1 :A h Latest ArriYols $595 I ailored tie not too extreme..-... bui extremely smart ;4 in GRENELE. calf . clhoos0 beieigv ' v.y or brown hey'r perfect an$wers to t w h a t ya t , ' q v 9i I annL MAIN FLOOR III 1,. .: . .,...v_ DAILY CLASSIFIEDS ADS ARE EFFECTIVE 3 A STI - .. - - -- - -__________ ___ ________________________--.- - -.---- A Washington YSTAN DER NOTICE Talk vs. Action To the Editor: Viewing the international scene, one finds a situation strikingly similar to that of 1917. Today, as in the fatal year we find ourselves spending many minutes talking, screaming, convinced that war must not reoccur and that it is inhumane, horrible, wasteful, unnecessary, etc. Those conscientious war-haters who have taken the trouble to look back a few years will no doubt observe that there were probably as many paci- fistic organizations as there are today. People rated war as much as they profess to today, and they wasted their time just as they are wasting it now. Talking has been tried before; screaming has been tried before. What good did it do? Per- haps a few more souls heeded their cries and chose the cell for the shell hole, but many, ma' more went to the front reluctantly. April fourth represents, if nothing else, the op- portunity for the great mass of college students to stop talking for an hour and to act on their convictions. For one hour they can drop the pen and take up the banner of peace if they so desire. But university administrations shy from the word "strike." "Strike" smacks of Toledo, California and labor. They would have the stu- dents listen to a man (most likely of above the draft age) complimenting them on their fine spirit, their pressed pants and their clean sports. The phrases will be trite and the listeners bored. The germ of inaction will be subtly injected Into their, skins. During the last massacre a man dressed in any- thing but brown was a slacker. He was yellow, afraid if he hesitated to donate a body to the By KIRKE SIMPSON WASHINGTON, April 2. SEN. CARTER GLASS who filled, with an "amia- bility" surprising to himself, the difficult role of Senate manager for a bill he hoped would be licked, seems to have learned something by that experience. He is on record with a pro- posal to choke off delaying de- bate by a change in Senate rules. Veteran that he is of both House and Senate, he probably does not really expect to get anywhere with that. It is just a gesture. But the Virginian promptly repeated on the par- I amentary business by which he wound up the seven-week dis- cussion in the Senate of the TUER P$ work-relief resolution. The very next bill taken up was an appropriation measure, also under Glass' management as appropriations chairman. It was the treasury-post office supply bill, filled with dy- namite. Yet Glass got it through the Senate and to conference in jig time. ** * * ONE OF THOSE was a $2,000,000 boost by kc- Adoo of California in funds made available for air mail extensions. As the bill stands, the Senate approves putting that much additional into the transpacific airmail route development. But Glass accepted it only to get it to conference. There was a time when Carter Glass would have stood up and fought even the appearance of ac- cepting the proposals he does not approve. That he intends to do battle as relentlessly as ever against those he dislikes but through the easier parliamentary mechanism of the conference re- port, goes without saying. SEN.
