EICH INTERPHETSI SHAKESPEARE PLAY "Taming of With the Shrew" Sympathetic sight Presented In- CHARACTER CONTRASTS ARE SHOWN WITH EFFECTIVENESS (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 (Continued on"' Page Four) Volume Intended to Aid Youths In Selection of Life Occupa- tion.

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 R.0.T.C.GOWTH HERE 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.

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. . .WITH LIQUIDAIR H. H. Sheldon, Who Lectured Yester- day, Will Leave for New York College in the Fall 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 AlSASSlN ATTEM PT PRESI, N ANNUAL FOURTEE CELEBRATION TED BY FIRES AT POLICE C CROWD MOBS ASS Gustave Bouvet, Communis After Fray, "Did Not To Kill Anyone' (By Associated Pre Paris, July 14.-Three s fired today at Perfect of Po: by Gustave Bouvet, an ana known to the police, in the it was President Milleran he was aiming.

Mr. Hooper and Mr. 1 both refused to comment on eeting, which also was attended imothy Healy, president of the Syracuse team of the internationai Sinformation relative to every career league. Vick was sent to the Internationals by the St. Louis Nationals, with whom he had signed immediately after leav.- ing the University. He played in sev- eral games for that outfit. Wagner, former Purdue outfielder, ws also farmed out to the Syracuse team. Dixon was one of Fish9r's mainstays on the mound last spring. He stood out as the beet of the Michigan pitch- ing staff, and was rated as one of the best hurlers 'in' Big Ten baseball cir- cles. His work at the bat was also above par, keeping pace in his stick work with the other Conference pitch- ers. . Philip G. Bartelme, former athletic director for the University, is owner and manager of the Syracuse team,, which he purchased this year. For Spotlig h t College humor with plenty of local color is promised to make the Spot- light to be given July 2 in Hill au- ditorium one of the best ever put on by the Michigan Union during any Summer session. The acts already decided upon are being practiced and others are being worked out. The cast comprises some of the best talent on the campus. Many of the actors are students here only for the summer and this is their first opportunity for co-operation in University activities. One of the acts on the bill is about a reporter whose joys and troubles begin when he gets the assignment to interview a Follies queen. And then there's-but that would be letting out the secret.
