Benefit Tag Day For Boys' Camp To Be Held Here Staging a state-wide drive to fin- ance the construction of five cabins at its summer camp near Albion, the Starr Commonwealth for Boys will hold its annual tag day here tomor- row. This is the first year in which the proceeds will be entirely devoted to the camp project. James Inglis, local resident, has already endowed one cabin, which is to be named in his honor. The Commonwealth, established 26 years ago, was planned for mal- adjusted boys and whose home environments were undesirable. Its aims included the desire to give the boys care, develop in them self-re- spect, and create interest among them for art, music and athletics. A contingent of boys from the Commonwealth will be stationed at various points tliroughout the city to sell the tags.

Dawson of the Law School will speak on "Civil Liberties and the War" at Hillel's regular Fire- side Discussion at 7:30 p.m. today. Prof. Barnes Predicts End OfEngland Foresees 'Defeat By Nazis From Without, Fascists From Within' In Lecture (Continued from Page 1) chance of their maintaining the old social system. Barnes named Soviet Russia and the United States as the only two nations remaining who can "bridge the gap between our institutions and our science by civilized means." For the U.S. to do this, however, "she must stay out of war at any cost," he explained. "This is no Holy War, as we are told. All the nations involved are guilty in one degree or another; but Hitler has more blood on his hands. "Great Britain is our most dan- gerous enemy today, because we are 'suckers' for her propaganda. Ger- many is not likely to attack us, and John Bull is almost certain to pull us in the battle if the war continues much longer." A "civilized victory" is impossible after this war, Barnes asserted. If Britain and France win it will mean fascism, and if Germany wins it will be a triumph of militarism. "America's policy should be 'Let American save America and let God save the King'." Britain is maintaining the balance of power in Europe. Professor Barnes noted that the 3000 miles between the United States should be used as a defense barrier against European aggressors, not as a. protection of Europe against the United States. Big Ten Highlights.. . By GEORGE W. SALLADE With most of the Big Ten occupied in last minute cramming for the too soon to come finals, activity was at low ebb throughout the conference this week. Northwestern and Ohio State were still under the influence of queenitus The Buckeyes after much confusion had four members of their depart- ment of psychology pick seven candi- dates for May Queen. Northwestern, with less difficulty than Ohio State, finally got around to having the official coronation of the lucky girl selected as their Queen of the month. This week's student opinion poll was taken at the University of Wisconsin while over 5,000 grade- school students were engaged in a songfest at the local field house. Madison's intellectuals were asked what books they would take with them to a desert island. The Bible was chosen first with Shakespeare running a poor sec- ond. Curiously enough only nine of the first 50 picked were on the list of 100 classics of St. John's College. Indiana University was making plans for Parent's Day and the Con- ference of Higher Learning during the past week. Two hundred schools will be represented in the conference, and its aim is to coordinate the work of universities and local civic organiza- tions more closely. Minjnesota, still recovering from the onslaught of more than 1,504) mothers on Mother's Day, is now preparing itsef for the 38th Annual Engineers' Day and the 25th Annual Agricultural Royal Day. Two thousand en- gineers will have a holiday while their counterparts in the Agri- cultural College also engage in festivities. With all this gaiety, campus politicians were engaged in the grim business of planning a Mock Political Convention. Competition for the state delega- tion chairmanships was very keen. Iowa gets the week's four bells for being the first school to schedule special events for the Summer Ses- sion. Plans are already being made for many events. The Second Art Fe:,ihal with purely local talent will be open to summer students from July 14-18. Drama, music and art will be featured. Previous to this a fcrum on current affairs will begin on June 14. Theta Xi's Triumph In Fraternity Sing (Continued from Page 1) Chi Omega's vocalizing was ac- claimed as most spirited by John DeVine, '41, secretary-treasurer of the Interfraternity Council, sponsor of the Sing. The Chi Omegas were given flowers by Nielsen's green- houses for the best cheering, while Collegiate Sorosis and Alphi Omi- cron Pi shared the Nielsen award as backers of the Theta Xis. Cups were given the three winning fraternities for permanent posses- sion by Van Boven, Inc., the Milk Dealers' Association of Ann Arbor and the Burr, Patterson and Auld Company. The rotating Balfour tro- phy went to the winners of first place until next year's Sing. Daily at 2-4-7-9 P.M. IStarting Today! German House Arrangem ents Are Completed Summer Center To Offer Opportunity For Study Of Language, Culture Opportunity for studying and ab- sorbing German language and culture will' be afforded to summer school students of German by living in the summer Deutsches Haus, a German language center, Dr. Otto Graf, di- rector, announced last night. The center's social director will be Mrs. Ruth L. Wendt, present lan- guage counsellor of the University women's residence halls, and world expreienced traveler and linguist. The Deutsches Haus as in previous years will take over one of the cam- pus fraternity houses for the sum- mer. It will be the center of an extra-curricular program which will supplant the work in the German classes. The center offers an oppor- tun ty for students to perfect them- selv(s in the language and to come in contact with the culture. The German Department, sponsor of this project, has arranged through the Dean of Students and the Dean of Women to have living accommo- dations for men and dining facilities for both men and women in the Deutsches Haus. Faculty and gradu- ate students will assist Mrs. Wendt in directing the conversations at the meals, the social program, lectures, music halls, picnic and dramatic ac- tivities. German is to be the language of the center as much as possible. Suomi Club To imeet The Suomi Club, organization for students of Finnish extraction, will meet at 7:30 p.m. today at Lane Hall. A wiener roast will be held at Three Islands. In case of inclement weather, the meeting will be held at Lane Mall, accordeng to oivo Liimatainen, '4iE, presid'ent of the club. Technic Urges Lighting Study By Engineers Continuing their drive to improve lighting facilities in the University, the Michigan Technic, which was is- sued Wednesday, contained an edi- torial advocating a complete study of campus lighting facilities by an illumination engineer. Only in that way, the Technic noted, can steps be taken to solve the individual problems in the dif- ferent University buildings. Criticizing again Michigan's light- ing. the Technic praised the move in the "right direction" made by the University in improving the lighting in the first floor study hall of the main library. "Unfortunately," the editorial de- clared, "steps like the above will win no races for the older buildings as it is impossible for cables (such as are in the West Engineering build- ing) to carry one watt more of elec- tric power than they are now pass- ing." City Tax Levy Cut A city tax levy which is expected to be 12,000 dollars less than last year and mean that the tax rate of Ann Arbor will be at its lowest since 1921 has been approved by the aldermen acting as a committee of the whole and will be submitted to the city council for adoption Monday night.
