ciety To

aise Level Of Play

"Society owes it to the people to
raise the level of play in work be-
cause the value of work depends on
play to a great extent," said Prof. El-
mer D. Mitchell, of the physical edu-
cation department, yesterday in a lec-
ture on'the "Serious Side of Play."
Professor Mitchell advanced four
theories in regard to play and its de-
velopment and outlined the merits as
well as the defects of each. le trac-
ed play back to ancient times when
the elements of our games were the
serious necessities of life, and told
He saidJ partnentfects
of the development of each. He said,
"All sorts of line games such as foot-
ball, pom-porn pullaway, etc., are the
results of battles and wars, and cir-
cle games are the results of friendly
councils and gatherings of ancient
times."
Professor Mitchelil said that the
philosopher asks, "Why do we play,"
and tries to solve the question with
the theories of surplus energy, in-
stinctive play, recapitulation and re-
laxation.
He then treated play from a psych-
ological standpoint by saying that the
only essential difference betwen work
and play lies in the attitude of mind
and when the reward is sufficient in
iself, the action is called play, but
when this condition ceases to exist
and an external reward is necessary,
it is work.
Professor Mitchell also spoke of sev-
eral great Americans and how they,
consider their work as a sort of play'
becatse ,the successful accomp1jsh-
ment of their work was reward enough
f or their untiring efforts.

standpoints, the right kind of play
should be encouraged because it, cuts
down juvenile crime, keeps children
in better health, builds character and
gives them a keen insight into human
nature," asserted, Professor Mitchell.

9ALLI-CURCI T
CONCERT HERE, IN FAL
Amelita GalliCurci, noted soprano,
will open the Choral Union Concert
series this fall, giving a concert on
Oct. 19. When Galli-Curci was in
Ann Arbor the last time, she was rec-
ognized as a coming artist, and since
then the soprano has reached great
heights, now being acclaimed the
greatest living coloratura soprano in
the world.
Mme. Galli-Curci was born at Milan,
Italy, in 1860. She received her mus-
ical enducation at the Milan Conser-
vatory, from where she graduated as
a pianist. Galli-Curci made her debut
at Rome as Gilda in "Rigolett" in
1910. For six years she sang at im-
portant theaters in Europe. Her Am-
erican debut was in 1916 with the
Chicago Opera company, where the
success of the Italian prima donna,
was sensational. She made a concert
tour of 44 engage|nents in the 1916-
1917 season.

Wesbrook To Play
With Henessey In
National Doubles
Walter Wesbrook, former University
of Michigan tennis ace, will play in
the National doubles championship at
Boston with his partner, Johnny Hen-
nessey, late this month. Hennessey
and Wesbrook -won the Western
doubles championship, held at Chica-
go last week, and thus won the right
to represent their district in the Bos-
ton meet. The middle West team ranks
fourth among the doubles combina-
tions in the United States and are be-
ing counted upon to cut quite a swath
in the national tourney.
Wesbrook added another title to his
long 'list ,when he won the Western
singles, defeating George Lott, of Chi-
cago, in the finals in straight sets.'
Lott had previously beaten Hennessey,
1922 champ., in the semi-fianls, the
loser playing far below his usual stel-
lar game. Nevertheless, experts re-

gard Lott, who is a junior, to be a
comer. He is now generally recogniz-
ed as Chicago's premier player.

Athletic System
Graphs Compiled
In CoachingExam
Among some of the questions ask-
ed students in athletic coaching on
their ,examirmations last week Was:
"Draw a plan of the athletic system
in your school or college and tell how
you think it may be improved." As a
result George Little is in possession
of more than 60 carefully drawn
graphs of the athletic systems used in
educational institutions from Canada
to the Mexican border.
Among some of theufinest pieces of
work are those of stu dents at Bald-
vin Wallace college, Ironwood high
school, Ottawa, Canada,. high school,
and Scott high school, which is said
to have one of the finest athletic plants
in the country.
