Daiches Calls
Modern Books
'Jouritalistie'
The reader of modern fiction
must learn to distinguish between
what is primarily journalistic
writing and what may' be classi-
fied as a novel in its true artistic
form, Prof. David Daiches, of Cor-
nell University, told a Rackham
audience yesterday.'
Speaking on "The Criticism of
Fiction," Prof. Daiches pointed
out, "Whatever one has to say
these days he casts it into that
particular shape." This has re-
sulted in the appearance of a
number of books which, although
published in novel form, are closer
to propaganda than art.
We must be less dogmatic, he
warned, in our definitions of style
and plot. These are so closely as-
sociated, he said, that it is dang-
erous to distinguish between thema;
every instance of what is termed
"style" can be proved an addition
to, or modification of, the plot.
Prof. Daiches came to Michigan
under an arrangement whereby
lecturers are exchanged between
Michigan, Cornell, Western Re-
serve, and Toronto Universities.
He is a noted authority on the
criticism of fiction, although his
published books include several
works on poetry. His most recent
book, "Robert Louis Stevenson,"
was published last year.

Foreign Pupils
Increase at 'U'
While the general enrollment
at the University took a plunge
this semester, the foreign student
body showed an increase - of
exactly one student.
This was revealed in a report
by M. Robert B. Klinger, assistant
counselor to foreign students. The
total enrollment of foreign stu-
dents stands at 606, as against 605
for the Fall semester.
Klinger's report also revealed
that students from 64 countries
are attending the University thi-
semester. 65 countries were repre-
sented last semester.
In terms of individual countries,

The time-extension provision

Varsity Band
Seeks Players
If you can play a band instru-
mcnt but don't have the time of
proficiency to make the Concert
Band, Mr. Harold Ferguson, As-
sistant Conductor of the Bands,
invites you to sign-up for the
University Varsity Band.
Varsity Band which acts as a
feeder organization, providing ex-
perience and training for would-
be Marching and Concert Bands-
men, is open to all interested stu-
dents.
Prospective members may join
by signing-up at any of the re-
hearsals, held from 4:30 to 5:30
p.m., Mondays and Thursdays in
Ann Arbor High School which is
located on the corner of Huron
and State.

Claiming that the campus de-
corum ha s reached a. bar"baric
state, the editors of Gargoyle de-
manded that the defacing of ad-
vertising posters on campus be in-
vestigated by an entirely prej-
udiced jury.
The posters which proclaim the
sale of the Housecleaning Garg,
Monday, bear evidence of vandal-
ism and a certain amount of nar-
row-mindedness.
The managing editor ordered
his legal staff to prepare a series
of papers demanding that respon-
sible parties be brought to justice.
Just what the Gargoyle might
consider justice was not made
clear but the staff immediately
began to sharpen sticks and build
a large bonfire in front of the
Publications Building,
It is reported however that the
legal staff of Garg, numbered)
among the most incompetent in
the county, was mending his socks
in preparation for a stiff bout of
footsie and completely ignored theI
orders of his superior.
Although none of the 'Ensian
staff were available for a state-
ment when the atrocity was dis-
covered, it is reported that Buck
Dawson, erstwhile editor, had his
