First indication that the Russian-
born artist would be no mere tradi-
tionalist came when, as a young man
in the Petrograd Conservatory, he
chose for his required instrument the
double bass while almost every other
young virtuoso inevitably stuck to
the violin.
The next step off the beaten road
came when Dr. Koussevitsky formed
his own orchestra in Petrograd, took
it to Moscow, and as missionary for
Russian music, traveled with it in
1909 for 2,000 miles up the Volga in-
to the rural heart of Russia, agitat-
ing the peasantry only with Beetho-
'ven and Scriabin.
When Dr. Koussevitsky came to
the Boston Symphony in 1924, his
first move as conductor was a suc-
cessful attempt at restoring balanced
programs and a fuller season's rep-
ertory by abolishing the "soloist" sys-
tem. His predecessors at Boston had
begun the movement, but it was only
with his coming that the bait of solo-
ist lists stopped dangling in front of
prospective subscribers. True, in-
strumental and vocal artists may
appear with the orchestra fromh time
to time, but only when the particular
program demands them. No longer
is the program based on audience-
appeal.
In his 12 years with the Boston
Symphony, Dr. Koussevitzky has nev-
er lost this distinct quality of unpre-
dictability. He has changed the seat-

to be approved as a staunch upholder
of "academic decorum."
But, most confounding of all to '
most people, he has "dared" to in-
clude on his programs the works of
new American composers, in the
face of criticism smiilar to "I refuse
co pay more than a nickel forsub-
way noises." Recently in New York
he directed the Boston Symphony in
a full program of contemporary
American music, including a concerto1
for violin and two symphonies.

Clancy To Speak Here
Denis Clancy of Hillsdale will speak
at a luncheon of the Ann Arbor
League of Women Voters at 12:30
p.m., Dec. 13 in the League. Mr.
Clancy will speak on'the subject "The
Problem of the Crippled Child in
Michigan," and will answer ques-
tions in the discussion period that
will follow.

"In my day, of course, the dean of
women and the dean of men would,
have taken firm steps," wrote a sor-
ority sponsor in an indictment of col-
lege girls' morals in Liberty maga--
zine of Feb. 2.
The author pointed out the change
that has taken place in moral atti-
tudes since "her day." She described
four or five specific immoral situa-
tions, and then said, "We were neith- [
er prudes nor puritans, but we held
some very positive ideas about the
value of a reputation for modesty, vir-
tue and integrity."
Various campus personalities, when
approached on the subject, expressed
attitudes ranging from indignation
to almost passive disregard.
Haven't' Dropped At All
Mrs. Byrl F. Bacher, assis;ant dean
of women, said, "I think a lot of
people do a lot of talking about things
like thiA but I don't believe college
morals have dropped at all. A lady
is always a lady."
Commenting on the author's state-
ment that the college students phi-
losophy seems to be one of consum-
mate opportunism, Mrs. Bacher said
that she doesn't believe that that is.
the attitude of society at large. This,
attitude isn't any different from that
of our day or our mothers' day, she
said.
When students think about the fu-
ture, Mrs. Bacher commented, they
may not be as serious about it as
their parents were, but that is due to
the fact that everything we do now
receives less pondering. "What I ask
for is not more morals but more time
to think," she said.
Nothing Of That Type
Mrs. H. M. Roberson, housemother
at Collegiate Sorosis, commented that
it would be fitting for the sorority
sponsor and author to tell where she
came from. "I've been here a long
time, and I've never seen anything
of that type," she said. The only
difference in today's students, she
said, is that they are a trifle too
frank, they are not quite as fine as
they used to be. A lot of things they
talk about would be better unsaid,!
she remarked.
Mrs. Leona B. Diekema, house
mother at Martha Cook, commented
that she thought specific, not general
instances were considered by the
writer. Students today have less re-
gard for conventions, she said, but
conventions also change. This does
not necessarily justify the adoption
of any of these conventions, however,
she remarked. There is less attitude
for reverence among today's students,
she said. That's what is wrong to-
day. There is little regard for the
sanctity of word and deed.

CHRISTMAS ANGEL FOR AN
ANGEL! And this is no bluff.
To be exact it is one of Helena
Rubinstein's gentlest aromas for
the girls of your heart. QUARRY
has had experience
{ in knowing what
one should buy in
the line of perfume
-you wouldn't be
sorry if you took
their advice. It
comes in two sizes.
Match your own purse, and also
in an attractive box which would
look so nice under the Christmas
tree. It is a charming, tantalizing
Slumber Song, night perfume.
Just perfect for inducing sweet
dreams. And what a heavenly
fragrance. Christmas Angel is
waiting for you-at Quarry.

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO
YOU from GAGE! And I'm sure
a gift from Gage would make
someone else have a Merry Christ-
mas too. One of their good look-
ing handkerchiefs would make
such a useful and personal gift.
Don't forget people like to' be
practical. And they have such a
large assort-

sle. Don't worry with hair trouble
while you are home. Time's fleet-
ing-don't get caught napping!
SIX MORE DAYS TO VACA-
TION, then you'll go to the sta-
tion. But don't go home empty-
handed, for yourself or your
friends. Get that shopping over
here, and DILLONS is the place.
Their suggestions include sweat-
ers, stockings and jewelry. The
jewelry is very nice. Gold is the
predominate color, it matches so
well and dresses
anything up. They
a have necklaces,
belts, cameos, loc-
kets and bracelets.
Could be? As
for stockings they
have 2, 3 and 4
thread, all prices and all colors.
'Tis well to choose carefully for
sleek legs are such an asset these
days. In the sweaters, they have
the regular run. An embroidered
one had long sleeves and was hea-
vy for skiing. Don't forget, it's
Dillons.
TRAVELING TIME IS HERE
AGAIN. And here's CALKINS-
FLETCHER again with hints for
you. Don't be bothered with lit-
tle cosmetic articles, collect them
in a compact and handy case and
your trouble will be gone. They
have some lovely
ones. With rubber
lining and big roo-
my pockets, it's just
the thing. And for
you snifflers, they
have something
new and so much
nicer. A case for tissues. It is
flat and would fit most any place.
Don't fret with traveling, make
it a joy-be fully equipped.
