THE MICHIGAN DAILY THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 30, 1937 Preuss Decries Protest Pickets At Embassies Calls Strike Tactic Futile And Dangerous Policy In Foreign Relations (Continued trom Pz 1) ment. It arouses resentment abroad, creates international friction and endangers the peace." Professor Preuss explained that there are no statutes existent now that could adequately prevent such picketing, but that nevertheless local officials have on many occasions in- terfered upon the complaint of the representative involved and thus laid themselves open to possible suits for false arrest. He denied that legislation outlaw- ing such picketing would infringe upon the cnstitutional rights of freedom of speech and assembly. He quotes Sen. Key Pittman, who said, "Should people who may make speeches which would not be subject to punishment if made in a park, be permitted to go to the front door of an embassy and, make the same speeches? ... "I say that under the constitution, anyone has a right to express his or her opinion with regard to any ruler or with regard to any government, but I say that they have not the constitutional right-if prohibit- ed by law-to make an offensive demonstration in front of an em- bassy.. . that will bring the hatred of the people of his (the ambassa- dor's) country against our people." Scouting the idea that the enact- ment of such legislation implies sym- pathy with principles of the govern- ments involved, Professor Preuss said: In certain quarters the enact- met of such legislation would be construed as a yielding to pressure from "dictatorial," "fascist," or "mil- itaristic" governments. Is it not more humiliating for this government to be compelled to continually apologize for undignified and futile demonstra- tions which it is powerless to pre- vent? There is a question, Professor Preuss believes, as to whether there has developed a rule of international law which would impose upon this nation the obligation to prevent such picketing. A resolution prohibiting picketing (other than that which is a result of a bona-fide labor dispute) withi 5 00 feet of any embassy, consulate or legation in Washington, D. C. was lost in the House in the last days of the legislative session. S.R.A. Headline Is Misconstrued Complaints have been made to The Daily of a headline in yesterday's issue reading: "New S.R.A. To Take Over Church Work." Although the story was accurate, the headline was construed by some to mean that the Student Religious Association wouldhultimatelyhsup- plant Ann Arbor churches. The As- sociation will rather attempt to work out a program for campus religious expression and social activity.

Pots Come Into Style Again With Drive For Class Spirit' ORCHESTRA REHEARSAL First rehearsals for the sixth sea- son of the Ann Arbor Civic Orchestra will be held tonight in the Ann Arbor High School Auditorium, Director William R. Champion said yesterday. An increase in membership over the customary number of 40 is being planned for this year. d Pots, those funny little skull caps that distinguish freshmen from soph- pmores and upperclassmen, although officially departed from the Michigan campus, are seen on the heads of many of the class of '41, who are at- tempting to get class unity through pots so the freshmen can beat the sophomores at the fall games. It was last spring at the last meet- ing of the Men's Council for the year that it was decided not to require the wearing of pots this year, because of the difficulty, experienced in previous years, of enforcing the rule requiring I the slight headgears. But, the class of '41 was not to be, downed by the Men's Council. Several of its members wanted pots, decided to get them and encourage every freshman to buy them. "We're going to lick those sopho- mores at the class games," one fresh- men, registering for fraternity rush- ing, told a junior member of the In- terfraternity Council, "and we're go- ing to lick them wearing pots. Tell all freshmen you see to buy a pot, will ya?" Pots are almost as old as the University itself. Back in the days around the turn of the century, they were worn by all students, each class having a different color. Then, it was decided that just the freshmen would wear them. For many years first year men would wear the peculiar little caps until the annual ;pap bight held late in the spring of the year. Cap Night was one of the biggest events of the University in the old days. Practically every person at Michigan would turn out for it, stu- dents and faculty alike. Cap Night was held in Sleepy Hol- Nw, located in a ravine back of the University Hospital. A huge bonfire would be built and freshmen. would rally around the fire and throw their pots into it, signifying that they had passed from freshmen standing into that of sophomores . Two years ago, when freshmen re-i vived the pot tradition on their own accord, after encouragement by the Men's Council, 200 of the members of the class of '39 stormed Moe's Sports Store late one.Friday evening follow- ing a Pep Meeting. "We want pots," was the cry thatl went forth. Pushing against the glass doors of the store, the crowd of first1 year men extended far out into the street. Finally, George Moe opened, the door and in stormed the fresh- men. More than 200 pots went over the counter in exchange for a rain of 50 cent pieces.
