CHARACTER CONTRASTS ARE

(By W. Bernard Butler)
With true imaginative and sympath-
etic insight into the spirit of Shakes-
peare's "The Taming of the Shrew,"
and into the personalities of the char-
acters, Prof. Louis M. Eich, of the de-
partment of public speaking, last eve-
ning in Sarah Caswell Angell hall, held
the unflagging attention of his audi-
ence throughout his artistic interpre-
tation of the play.
Before beginning the reading of the
play, Professor Eich outlined the in-
crease of interest oral in interpreta-
tion and the change in the method and,
spirit of reading many of Shakespear's
plays. He said that Shylock on the
"Merchant of 'Venice" was formerly
a part taken by one of the inferior

FAVORING PARLEY
Lewis is' Preparing to Recommend
Refusal of Government Arbi-
tration Plan
RESPONSES RECEIVED BY
UNIONS "UNSATISFACTORY"
(Dy Associated Press)
Woshington, July 14.- It became
definitely known today that John L.
Lewis,,president of the United Mine
Workers, and other national officers
of the union, who have been negotiat-
ing with the government since Presi-
dent. Harding offered arbitration to
settle the coal strike, are preparing to
iecommend to their associates that t"ew
government plan be rejected.
Ever since the President's offer was
laid before the union leaders in Wash-
ington, they have made an effort to
get definite assurances from the gov-
ernment that the arbitration would be
applied to all the bituminous area the
union considers wtihin its scope, in-
cluding ports of West Viriginia and
Pennsylvania, where coal still is be-
ing mined.t
While no announcement has been
forthcoming officially, the union men
were definite today in asserting that
responses that they had received to-
day were unsatisfactory.
The bituminous operators likewise
have presented protests to the Presi-
dent's plan, based largely upon the
continuation of wage scales of 1920-
22 during the time arbitration is in
progress.
MIJ, ARTHROUTLINES

MILITARY TRAINING NATIONATLY
\ ASSUMING MORE IMPORT.
ANCE, SAYS MAJOR
"Military training in colleges and
universities is growing in importance
throughout the country each year with
rapid strides," stated Major Arthur
commandaint of the Uniyersity R. O.
T. C. unit, yesterday,
'The Michigan unit has grown rap-
idly," he continued, "since its estab-
lishment here in the fall of 1919.
Starting at that time with an enroll-
ment of only 25, we have increased at
the rate of 100 per cent each year un-
til now we have more than 400 in the
department." Work is now offered in
four branches of training, he said,
coast artillery, signal corps, ordnance,
and infantry, infantry being the last
department added. He stated that oth-
er departments will be added as the
enrollment and demand warrants.
"We find that our growth is due
to a natural growing interest among
the upiversity men in military work.
The fact that enrollment in the R. O.
T. C. here is not compulsory as in
many state universities means that
our students enroll because of a de-
sire for a study of military work. The
advantage of this is brought out by
that fact that 65 per cent of men who
begin work here continue into the ad-
vanced work as compared with 20
per cent in the University of Illin-
ois where enrollment is compulsory
during the first two years of uni-
versity work."
Reports to date show that the Mich-
igan students attending summer train-
ing camps who have entered to qual-
ify for marksmanship rank second in
place among the colleges and univer-
sities of the country.

SLAYER OF IIIXON
ABSOLVED BY JURY
Detroit, July 14-Patrolman Os-
car Storch, who shot and killed
Charles D. Hixon, Unfv-ershty f Michi-
gan student early July 5, was ab-
solved from blame by a coroner's
jury today." The jury held that Hix-
on "did not obey commands fron ai
officer who was in fear of his life
while investigating a holdup."
Storch declared he fired at Hixon
when the latter reached 'toward his
hip pocket, presumably to draw a
weapon. This statement was denied
by Earl Brotherton, a fellow student,
who accompanied Hixon at the time
of the shooting.

DEMXNSTRA TU PROPERITIES,
OF SUBSTANCES AT -180 DEG.
Aladdin with his lamp would have
been entirely outmiracled had he been
.present yesterday afternoon to view
the wonders which H. H. Sheldon of
the physics department produced from
his container of liquid air before an
audience in Natural Science auditor-
ium. Cherries, flowers and beef steak
when introduced into the liquid air
were frozen solid. Upon being thrown
upon the desk they cracked into bits.
The temperature of liquid air is
minus 180 degrees, two-thirds of the
way from freezing to absolute zero,
When it is exposed to the atmosphere
the heat of the air is so much greater
than that of the liquid air that the
latter boils.
Produces Snow in Bunsen Flame
Dr. Sheldon took a quantity of mer-
ctry which freezes at minus -40 de-
grees Centigrade and bysetting it, in
a receptacle of liquid air froze it so
hard that he was able to pound a
tack into the top of the desk with it.
A ball of iron upon being immersed
in the canister of liquid air and then
introduced into the flame of a Bun-
snow. "Frogs," says Dr. Sheldon, "can
safely be immersed in liquid air, as
they freeze every winter and in the
spring come to life again but it is
wise when performing this experi-
ment not to let the frog fall."
To show that oxygen is combustible
Dr. Sheldon poured a quantity of 'Ii-
quid air upon some cotton waste and
after the nitrogen had evaporated ig-
'nited the oxygen, which flamed up
.brightly. That very low temperature
decreases the resistance in a conduct-
or was shown when the filament of an
electric light glowed after the coil of
wire from the battery had been put
into the liquid air, showing that the
resistance had been decreased.
Leaves in Fall
.Dr. Sheldon was a member of the!
American division for gas defense
and for a year was investigating this
subject at the University of Chicago.
He expects to leave in, the fall to
take the position of head of the phys-
ics department of Washington Square,
college in New York City. This col-
lege is a division of the University of
New York.
AIR BOAT SERVICE
MAKES INITIAL TRIP
Detroit, July 14.-A party of prom-
inent Detroiters, headed bye Governor
Groesbeck of Michigan, were passeng-
ers on the initial trip today of one of
the flying boats placed in daily service
between this city and Cleveland. At
the Ohio city the guests of the Aero-
marine company, were to be banqueted
by the Chamber of Commerce, the din-
ner to celebrate the formal opening
of the air line. Governor Davis of
Ohio, and former Secretary of War
Baker, were to address the gathering.
The schedule of the flying boats
calls for a round trip each day by
a plane stationed at Detroit and a sim-
ilar trip by a Cleveland machine. The
machines are of the enclosed type,
luxuriously appointed, and seating 11
