THE MICHIGAN DAILY FRIDAY, MAY 7, 1937 FRIDAY MAY ,n193 r 71F , Denhardt Is Released On Bail "Emil und die Detektive," the pre- Hitler film with German dialogue and English subtitles to be shown today1 and tomorrow at the Lydia 'Meridel- ssohn Theatre, is a "faithful repro- duction of the delightful book about children that has been enthusias-, tically received by students of Ger- man here and in other colleges for two years," Prof. Henry W. Notd- meyer, chairman of the German de- partment, said yesterday. The movie, which will be shown at 8:15 p.m. today and tomorrow by the Art Cinema League, "like the book demonstrates the penetrating under- standing of child psychology of the author, Erich Kaestner," Professor Nordmeyer stated. Paris has replaced Berlin as the central city in a French text that is now being used; but London "could: just as well be substituted," Profes- sor Nordmeyer said , "without losing the basis of common humanity the story has." "Kaestner, the author, got his start in German letters in 1928 with lyric poetry of a nonchalant devil-may- care style, but since 1932 he has con- centrated in writing stories about children of high school age. Two other books are now being used as texts in this country." "Kaestner's understanding of chil- dre," Professor Nordmeyer said, 'gives his work a universal appeal which over-balances some slight looseness in construction that will affect only critical adults."

An unknown voice sinisterly pro- nounced the words of doom: the water was to be shut off from 11 p.m. until 8 a.m. the next day. That in- I nocent lady immediately spread the alarm. Then the action began. From floor to floor traveled the news. Hys- terical damsels screamed. Bath tow- els, wash cloths, soap and tooth- brushes were brandished as the fair ladies forgot their sophistication in one mad dash fo'r the lavatory. Indignant voices shouted: "First' come first served," as the dismayed girls lined up three-deep before the washbowls. Bathtubs were filled to' overflowing to provide water for those unfortunate ones with eight o'clocks the next morning. Excite- ment and terror prevailed. Downstairs the frenzied chaperon was pouncing upon every available girl to help collect water for the use of the cook the following morning. Every empty pot, pan and kettle was filled to the brim. Only at 11 p.m. did the noise subside, as the girls 11windled back to their rooms. The next morning grim faces ap- peared at the breakfast table. The truth was out. The water had not been turned off at all. Some very clever person had concocted the joke to play on the unsuspecting females of that doomed dormitory. Hands that had known the toil of filling pots Delroit Men To Speak Before Hillel Meeting Fred Butzel, Detroit attorney, and Rabbi Leo M.
