PIERCE ; Real Student Opinion Should Prevail.. .. THE QUESTION of whether under- graduate women will be told to goI to bed an hour earlier on Friday nights will be' presented to the coeds themselves at a meeting of the Board of Representatives this afternoon. The decision of this Board, composed of more than 75 campus women, will probably settle the issue for at least the remainder of the current semester. If the assembled sorority and indepen- dent women should possibly decide in favor of a 12:30 a.m. curfew, then the new rule will go into immediate effect. It is more likely, advance indications show, that today's ballot of women who are truly representa- tive of all coeds on campus will reveal an over- whelming disapproval of any change in the pres- ent 1:30 a.m. Friday closing hour. Then, if the Undergraduate Council still clings to its demand for the earlier deadline, its members must approve such a change unanimously. The League Undergraduate Council of 16 sen-; iors and 1 junior, in formulating its resolution, has admittedly overridden popular sentiment, de- scribing itself as over and above campus opinion. It has chosen to express its views when the Senate Committee on Student Affairs, a body in- cluding faculty members as well as students, has preferred to defer action. In other words, this Council of 17 undergraduate women has taken less than eight weeks "to think it over," despite the fact that the student-faculty Senate Com- mittee voted to give the present schedule of hours a trial for at least one semester. At the time the Council announced this unex- pected proposal, it disclosed certain reasons in defense of its action. Even if these reasons are accepted and it is granted that there has been excessive bolting and also that a few cases of "fatigue" have been reported by house mothers, there is no logical cause for assuming that these conditions are due to late hours on Friday night. Why No Nobel Prize?... FROM COPENHAGEN this week comes the fateful announcement that the Nobel Peace Prize will not be awarded this year. This year more than any since the beginning of the last war we stand in need of powerful states- men for peace, statesmen of the world instead of nations. And this year we stand devoid of any to merit the Nobel Award. Last year the prize went to Arthur Henderson, 72-year-old president of the Disarmament Con- ference and life-long worker in the cause of peace. Last month saw his death, and saw with it the doom of hopes of this generation for peace through reduced chauvinism and imperial green. With it died the last rays of hope that had been breaking through the war clouds which even now threaten to envelope all of the nations once more. We are not entirely without forces working for peace in this emergency. The League of Na- tions has instituted a collective sanction measure the effect of which will not be apparent for sev- eral weeks, perhaps months. The United States, in adopting a neutrality measure, has taken a step towards the localization of this dispute and others. Our motives and those of the most influential in the League action were unquestionably selfish, but the end is high. It is of little avail to decry the absence of world- conscious statesmen, of unselfish nations. Perhaps they are becoming anomalous in a selfish age. Of foreboding significance, however, is the Copen- hagen announcement. THE FORUM Letters published in this column should not be construedas expressingnthe editorial opinion of The Daily. Anonymous contributions will be disregarded. The names of communicants will, however, be regarded as confidential upon request.

Rock-A-Bye . As a senior and a former member of the League Council, I can sympathize with the sincere desires of the League Council members to establish de- sirable rules for the University women. That the unanimous decision to change closing hours on Friday night to 12:30 a.m. is sincere in purpose, I do not doubt, but I am dubious as to the wisdom of such a hasty action. As has been previously pointed out, the decision, which was formerly postponed to give the present system a fair trial, has been made after the eight busiest weeks of the school year for women of the University. The rushing season is agreed to be one of physical strain, and the ensuing weeks of foot- ball, homecoming, and other activities which mark the beginning of every fall semester, would account under any rules for the number of absences in classes and the reported cases of "fatigue." A change in the rushing rules is now being considered by the Panhellenic members, so that the first men- tioned cause would be negated next year. That the League Council should chapge so suddenly from its pre-announced policy of deterring action until normal conditions have had a fair chance to operate is surprising inasmuch as it disregards its own position in campus favor and establishes for itself a reputation for abrupt action. If it is found necessary to make a change after due consideration, I personally would advocate the early hour for freshmen and sophomore women, since it was to alleviate crowded conditions in the courses of the first two classes that the Saturday classes were adopted. Objections will be made that the work of house chaperones in keeping ac- count of class privileges would be increased, but such difficulties have been solved before, and the popularity of the Council would rise as it discrim- inated more than it does in this new blanket rule for all women. But the principle behind the action seems to me more important than the actual petty point of closing doors an hour earlier. By the time men and women are acceptable for college educa- tion, it seems a premise that they have a certain amount of discretion and control over their own habits. A student who is not this mature is not ready for the first step into adult society, and certainly can do little more in acquiring an educa- tion than to get "book learning." Any woman who hasn't enough discretion to form habits for her own health and to get the most from her education, should not be in the University. That the extremely progressive universities have dropped the paternalistic attitude entirely is established, and this implies a trust that the student can dis- criminate between present and future values as an educated person must. The practical business world into which we are going does not regulate our habits. That the Council would hastily advo- cate a rule which denies the women of this Uni- versity their normal adult intelligences, and per- sists in putting them to bed before they have time to discover whether or not they are sleepy, means only that the Council will lose the support of the campus which is so vital to its existence as head of women's self-government at the Univer- sity. -Marjorie Morrison, '36. The Male View To the Editor: It may seem peculiar for a male to discuss the problem of women's hours at Michigan, but I feel that I am justified in so doing because of the fact that these regulations have a distinct relation- ship to the presence of males on the campus, as well as to the males themselves, jointly and sever- ally. It has long been a source of infinite nuisance and aggravation that females of supposed more than normal intelligence and ability to take care The Conning Tower 'Teasing Tom (Music by Sullivan) "From the first days when he pulled the hair of little girls, to the days he drew a knife, it was always the same rebellion to discipline, the rebellion of a spoiled child, a beaten child revenging himself upon others for youthful sufferings at home." His youth, we are told, was a record "of stabbings, shoot- ings, barroom brawls, jealous battles with fellow-boarders for the affections of a land- lady, street fights, as well as political adven- tures." -From "Sawdust Caesar," by George Seldes. Benito M. was a very bad boy, A nice new knife was his favorite toy; He teased and tormented little girls. He stabbed and shot in brawlsome bars, And fancied himself as a bushleague Mars. He never obeyed, and never took orders; And he fought over women with the other boarders. And when he grew up he was wild and spleeny, And wasn't a thing but Mussolini. It is to be hoped that the sanctions against Italy will not interfere with the celebration on December 8, of the 2,000th anniversary of the birth, in Venusia, of Quintus Horatius Flaccus. Pride and/or Prejudice One thing is sure. I won't espouse a Man who always answers, "Yowza,!" MEG Father Coughlin said that he was thrilled, in March, 1933, to hear the ringing words that promised to drive the money changers from the temple. And now, he say's, the money changer has not been driven from the temple. Well, for one thing, he mixed his numbers up, or else he feels that there is only one money changer left in the temple. Of course, he might have said there is no money for the changers to change. "FROM HOUNSDITCH UNTO MARYBONE" Robert Levet lived in London, Was a practiser of physick, And he walked from dawn to sundo'n, Taking pulses, treating pthisick, And the ills of lower people, Walking, walking, all alone, Past the graveyard, past the steeple, From Hounsditch unto Marybone. Thus says Boswell (in his Johnson), Who to error was not prone. His the phrase that this one cons on: "From Hounsditch unto Marybone." And good Levet for his service To the sweep, and to the crone, To the crippled, and the nervous From Hounsditch unto Marybone, Took such food as they could spare him, Bread, or corn, or beef, or scone, When he took him out to air him From Hounsditch unto Marybone. Now, because of his great merit, He, no doubt, walks round The Throne; But I hope he stalks in spirit From Hounsditch unto Marybone. G.A. To get an unflavored malted milk is child's play. Go to a restaurant and ask for an apple. To get an apple - and not apple pie, a baked apple, or apple sauce - takes a meeting of the board of directors. The difficulty varies directly with the swankiness of the restaurant. This, by the way, is a favorite dessert of Arthur Kober's. That crusader no longer asks for an apple; he requests a Raw Eating Apple. The Mightier Team? (Selected from Saturday's line-ups, by B.M.S.)

The whole purpose of student government is to give the student a voice in his or her affairs, not, as Miss Seeley so blandly puts it, "to act independent of campus opinion." If this were the function of the Under- graduate Council it would have absolutely no rai- son d'etre. It is essential and desirable, and in this I feel that I speak for practically all of the social males on campus, that at least one night a week be set aside for late hours. To attempt to deny this is to act on an arbitrary and rather ill- considered manner. Here is an issue around which male and female alike should rally. It is not only a question of the justice of the particular hour decided upon, but a question of whether or not the women are going to + ART + By ARNOLD S. DANIELS An exhibition of German graphic arts has been placed on display in Alumni Memorial Hall under the aus- pices of the Carl Schurz Memorial Foundation for the development of cultural relations between Germany and America.C The main display is composed ofn wood-cuts, lithographs, etchings andv drypoints by nineteenth and twen-v tieth century artists. They are ar- ranged with the impressionistic works at the direct left of the entrance to the gallery. The most important art-, ists represented in this group aree Max Slevogt, Liebermann and L. Cor-F inth, whose works are largely studies 1 of nature quite typical of the late nineteenth century.; The next group, however, is in di-C rect contrast. These are a collectionI of realistic wood-cuts by Kaethe Koll-C witz. Frau Kollwitz, one of the twoh women represented in the collection,e is noted for her works concerning thef life of the poor and oppressed. HerV "Death of a Child," and "Unem-z ployed" are done in stark black andF white with no detail whatsoever. Theyi are part of a series called "The Prole- 1 tariat," and in them the hands and. facial characteristics of the subjectsv play an important part.c The next group of wood-cuts, by1 von Hofman, are of a purely decora-I tive nature, and are characterized byC sweeping curves and graceful figures,o clearly showing the French and Ital-E ian influence. A similar trend mayd be seen also in the works of Hans Jaeger, a romanticist. In his "Ma- donna," and "Coming Home," the hu- man forms are idealized, and in each I of the two, a general geometric plant is followed, an arc in the first andr a triangle in the second, somewhat ins the manner of the old masters. Y Renee Sintemis, the next artist rep-v resented, is a sculptress, and her works are simply graceful outlines for bronzes of young animals. In strong contrast to these are the lead cuts ofa Nuckel, all of which are illustrationss for books. Using the medium of leadf enables Nuckel to utilize strong sha-f dows and fine shades for dramatica effect. The illustrations are done in) careful detail, and with a wide range of tones. Expressionism is the next school of work displayed in the collection.E Among the artists here represented ist Carl Hofer, who won the second prizes at the Carnegie International Showa last year. His "Old Town In Tessin"x is one of his less extreme works, ande pictures, in free, pleasing style, and old Swiss town. This drypoint ist characterized by its clarity of line andI form, and its freedom from all excesss detail.f Alex Kanoldt, whose work has been1 placed next to Hofer's is unique ink that he combines both the natural-t istic and abstract models. His litho-t graphs of a mountain scene, whilet they are realistic in outline, utilizet definite geometric design in the de- tails which pass beyond the truly na- tural form of the scene.- Also among the expressionists is E Erik Keckel, who, in his wood-cut,1 "The City," masses into a small spacer a number of distorted city scenes. Int the center of the compressed mass isE a clumsy, futile figure of a man, rep-1 resenting remarkably well the spiritt of Man in the city. In the school of the abstract, the1 work of Joseph Albers has been placedE on display. In his "Going Home," at set of three figure nines is used to represent a family walking along a street set in an extremely simpleY background. The whole effect is onei of graceful, pleasing form and ar- rangement. In this group there is also included two of the works of Baumeister, ac leader in the abstract school in Ger- many. His lithograph in color, done with seven stones, is a pleasing ar-i rangement of mass, form and color, devoid of any meaning, and simply decorative. There is also included the first of his "Sports And Ma- chinery" series, in which man and machinery are represented in simple,1 pure outline,' perhaps somewhat sym- bolical of the' machine age. The impression of the entire exhibit is that all of the work is definitely and originally German, showing few traces of foreign influence. It also indicates, in the case of the later artists, that the break from the French influence has been complete, and that the independent develop- ment of German art has reached a very advanced and specialized state.

Smith, Registrar t Smoking in University Buildings:F Attention is called to the general rulet that smoking is prohibited in Univer-t sity buildings except in private officesc and assigned smoking rooms whereF precautions can be taken and controlf exercised. This is neither a merea arbitrary regulation nor an attempt to meddle with anyone's personal habits. It is established and enforcedt soley with the purpose of preventingt fires. During the past two years there1 have been twenty fires in University buildings, seven of which were at-t tributed to cigarettes. To be effec- tive, the rule must necessarily applyP to bringing lighted tobacco into orr through University Buildings - in- cluding such lighting just previous to going outdoors. Within the last few years a serious fire was started at the exit from the Pharmacology Buildingt by the throwing of a still lightedI match into refuse waiting removal at1 the doorway. If the rule is to be1 enforced at all its enforcement must begin at the building entrance. Fur- ther, it is impossible that the rulee should be enforced with one class of persons if another class of persons disregards it. It is a disagreeable and thankless task to 'enforce' any rule. This rule against the use of tobacco within the buildings is perhaps thet most thankless and difficult of all, unless it has the willing support of everyone concerned. An appeal is made to all persons using the Uni- versity buildings-staff members, stu- dents and others-to contribute indi- vidual cooperation to this effort tol protect University buildings against fires.
