HE MICHIGAN Department of Conservation has issued a press Ielease containing a guide to the quarter of a million hunters who will soon be afield in this state. We believe the vital importance of these Matters requires comment. According to the release, "hunting was once the sport of kings and princes only, and regarded by them as an honorable and chivalrous pastime today it is the sport of the common man. bo nothing to degrade it." We common mn ac- bept the challenge; we .shall try in our humble Way to raise hunting in Michigan to the level bf Henry VIII. Farther along, "Do not use intoxicating bev- rrages while hunting." Hunters who fail to ob- serve this rule often see two rabbits. They shoot, but miss both. "Keep a copy of the Michigan Game Law Di- gest in your hunting jacket, your car or your suit coat." Very excellent advice. You don't have to be a lawyer, but you should be able to inform the fleeing pheasant of your constitutional rights to pick him off. "Do not run when approached by a stranger." If the squirrels would only agree to follow these , als. "The skunk will remain on the protected list until Oct. 29 . ." After that time the law should protect the hunter. "Sunday, Oct. 31, is the last day of the five- Month open season on frogs in Michigan." And, we had planned to go frog-hunting on Nov. 1. "All hunters shooting banded ducks any- where in the state are asked to report the inci- dent to Lansing ..." That's one way for state *eg4slators to give duck dinners at Lansing. P.S.: We suggest that the Department devote o6e of its obvious ability and energy to the conservation of human beings in Michigan's over-crowded industrial centers. That might be an "honorable and chivalrous pastime," too. Faculty Table . . 0 THE UNIVERSITY has many facil- ities for student meetings and rec- reation in the Union and League, but unfor- tunately it has no ample quarters where faculty members can gather informally to become better acquainted and exchange ideas in small discus- sion groups. Many large universities have university clubs where faculty members may live it they choose, and where they can hold panels, and luncheon and recreational groups. T wo rooms have been provided in the new Union addition for the Fac- ulty Club, but many faculty men will be unable to take advantage of the Club because of insuf- ficient time and the lack of space in the Club quarters. Late last spring Prof. Max Handman, of the economics department, suggested to a group of faculty members that there ought to be'some Table since its inauguration, but it deserves the attention of more faculty members. It is impossible for all faculty members to know each other in a large university such as Michigan, but the Faculty Table is a definite at- tempt to break down the barriers that exist between men in the different departments and colleges in the University, and to give them an opportunity to discuss everyday problems in a congenial atmosphere. UNDER THE CLOCK with DISRAELI BEAT MINNESOTA Today we thank God that George Quick, Sam Krugliak, WRAG and Disraeli have at last gotten the October Gargoyle on the stands and into your hands. The suspense must have been terrible. * * * * BEAT MINNESOTA THIS MORNING we found a little story on the Parrot doorstep. It's about Lee (The Per- renial) Shinar. Lee made a date with a co-ed-which isn't particularly unusual and often not very funny. But characteristically, Lee al9so got himself an- other dale with another co-ed for the same eve- ning and for the same time last week-end. That wasn't so bad until the two girls sat across from each dther in the Parrot a day or two before their big moments with Lee. Casually one of them remarked that she was going out with Lee Shinar. The other, less casually, remarked also she was going out with the gentleman. That evening two letters couched in identical diction, written on identical stationary, enclosed in iden- tical envelopes and probably bearing identical postmarks, were on their way to the Shinar resi- dence. The wise little wenches accepted other dates that night and Lee's big weekend received quite some setback as anybody can see. They waited. The next day, early, and, apparently before the mail had been delivered in Detroit, Lee Shinar, oblivious to the letters, whipped into Ann Arbor, had broken both dates announcing he had de- cided to spend the weekend in Chicago watching the Northwestern game between drinks. Lee, by the way, in case you don't know, is one of those fellows you spend three ,or four years of your campus life getting used to seeing around again after expecting that he had grad- uated the June before.. The trouble is, we finally got used to the whole thing so that it didn't get us down. Then he graduated in summer school. So now we have to get used to not getting used to seeing him around. *k * * * BEAT MINNESOTA AT THE TIME this is written the team will be in Plymouth and the biggest pre-game rally in the history of Michigan will have been held. We wish we could write a column about tonight, because we have never as long as we have been in school seen what 'college spirit' is. Our time has been the time of the depression in Michigan football fortunes and a depression in the exuberant spirits that have characterized school life since the jazz age was debunked. We, for one are tired of cynical commentaries on the life of the college student. We believe heartily in an enthusiastic existence. We believe that in our youth will we find time for enthusiasm and pos- sibly only in our youth. The press of our later existence is too often greater than our youth can bear and we become old-or worse, middle- aged. The University and the town itself has not attempted to foster the lighter spirits, but rather has suppressed them for fear of wantonness and national reports among which are pictures in 'Life.' There is talk of the University as a place of study and as a mill in which diplomas are manufactured. But we don't believe that. We believe in study and we expect to get a nicely printed diploma, but we also recognize that in Ann Arbor there are upwards of eight thousand people who are tasting what is for us only to taste once. We have a freedom that most of us will never have again. We have the right that is only ours, for we alone can shout and sing and cheer without a thought to our decorum or worry about the part in our hair. We don't think that a pep rally is "joe college." We think it is the only natural thing to do because unim- portant as football itself may be to the indi- vidual who does not play it, nevertheless, it is a cause that at present almost everyone is getting steamed up about, talking about and occasionally thinking about. If people are not enthusiastic about what they think, it seems to us that there isn't much point in thinking then, for as Knute Rockne once said and Ray Roberts has many times written on the blackboard in the Field House, "Enthusiasm creates momentum." And we have to have something to keep us alive, haven't we? Which all brings us to wishing again the editor of this rag did not demand that we be in by six o'clock, because we would like to'write about the waving arms, the roaring songs from strong young voices, the smoke of many cigarettes, the taut emotion of the team as they stand before the crowd and short clipped sentences of Harry Kipke, the guttural thrusts of the Old Man from behind his cigar, and finally we wish we could write about the great rof.r that will tell the team and Kip and the 011 Man to "Beat Minnesota!" -Mr. Disraeli. The superintendent of the Washington Zoo has arrived with a tiger from Sumatra. An organization in New York City is said also to be looking for one to replace its mascot which got chewed un in the recent primarv elections. IT SEEMS By Heywood Broun There should be a terminal facility for every public problem. Even the most complicated controversy eventually is talked out to the point where there ought to be a recess or a show of hands. Specifically, I am thinking of the case of Justice Hugo Black. The complaint has been made that he was confirmed with too brief a discussion period. I agree. But there has been ample debate since. Those who think that the appointment was tragic have a right to their opinion and no amount of argument is likely to change their opinion. In the same way, the partisans who hold that this particular choice was middling good or perfect are by now rutted in their convictions. And so I say, "Leave it lay." Obviously, Re publicans and other opponents of the adminis- tration have a perfect right to use the Black issue in those fugitive spots where national issues are pertinent in 1937. If it seems ex- pedient, there is no reason why the case should not be raised again in 1938 or in the Presidential election of 1940. * * * * Over Estimate Interest In Black But I doubt very much whether any great pro- portion of the population of the United States is as much exercised about Mr. Justice Black as a perusal of the newspapers would seem to indi- cate. I have seen no little knot of citizens as- sembled on any street corner. Quite frankly I will admit that, in addition to rather more important persons, your columnist felt that he had been put upon the spot. When the name of the gentleman from Alabama was sent to the Senate I was among the first couple of hundred to say, "This is a swell appoint- ment." Now I would like to take that back. A blunder was made. In the main it was, from my point of view, a political blunder rather than an actual one. My guess is that Mr. Black will be an extremely useful member of the High Bench. The blemish on his record may even prove to be helpful in the long run, because it is likely that he will be under a special kind of pressure in dealing with issues affecting tolerance and civil rights. Upon such points the barrister from Birmingham will have to go the whole hog in espousing the liberal position. I realize that there are sincere people who will not like the appointment even if it turns out well in the long run. They will say that high prin- ciples must always outweigh the question of ex- pediency. ** * *. 4 Concede Everything There could be a long debate on that, and I am interested only in short arguments. Accordingly, I will concede everything which the opponents of Black allege. I will concede their assertions in order to expedite business. He has been seated. His position is official. At reasonable times the whole issue may be brought up again for sound political purposes. But I do not think that those of us who live with our noses buried in newspapers should be compelled to have Black for breakfast, Black for lunch and Black for dinner time. In particular, I am getting weary of the letter to the editor. It is always the same letter. Will anybody join me in a swear-off? This column is going to be dedicated to a no-mention-of-Black program until such time as new evidence comes in or the Justice renders a decision which is properly a subject of news comment. Even if I am bereft of subjects to the point where there is nothing to write about, except the autumn landscape in Connecticut, I am not going back to Black. Naturally, I am in no position to establish clo- ture, but after reading many editorials I think I have a right to say, "This is where I came in, and I don't want to see all eight reels over again." And lest I break the heart of some pro or anti-Black fan, I will make a. concession. The merits of the new Justice, in my opinion, should still be subject to debate upon agreement that Mr. Justice Butler's name and fame and ante- cedents should also be thrown into the agenda. On ILThe :;Level By WRAG "Homecoming" is a day when Michigan plays a football game to show the alumni how things have changed since the day when they were undergrads. * * * * Alumni are people who were always in school when Michigan had a National Championship football team and at least half of the student body was out raising hell every night. * * *4 * And when an alumni starts reminiscing it takes either a case of Scotch or a train back home to stop him. *** * * But not all the alums who come back to the game today will be drunk. Some of them will have their wives along with them. As far as fraternities are concerned, "Home- coming" is a good time to see how well the new pledges work while putting up the front lawn decorations. It is also an excellent time for the house FORUM Inhuman Atrocities " . ", . ° .". . - . tdrslty. Copy received at the aM To th Editr : ut= 3:N;:21:00 a m. an Sa.turda y.
