WEDNESDAY, JULY 18, 1928
Night Editor-CLARENCE EDELSON

Summer Tag Day will be held
on the campus today. This will
afford Summer students the op-
portunity to contribute to a
worthy cause. A 100 per cent
membership in the Camp club will
enable the directors of the camp
to accept the full list of applica-
tions from the underprivileged
boys of Detroit, Flint, Ann Arbor
and vicinity.
Fifteen campers, chosen on the basi
of high qualities of leadership, will
be stationed at various points on the
campus today to appeal to the stu-
dent body and faculty to lend support
to the University Fresh Air camp at
Patterson lake. These boys are op.
tomistic as they face the day's cam-
paign, and feel certain that the Sum-
mer students will readily contribute
to their worthy cause.
Their task today is that of raising
$500, which is the Summer school
quota of the camp. A fixed price 01
50 cents and $1 has again been set as
the price of a tag which signifies mem.
bership in the "Dollar" or "Half Dol.
lar" campus club. One dollar, how
ever, is the approximate cost of keep.
ing one boy at camp for one day.
It is reasonable to believe that every
individual inderstanding the signi-
ficance of the work that is being car.
ried on at the University Fresh A
camp will contribute a dollar or a hal
dollar without hesitation when the
are approached to buy a tag today
This camp project has attracted the
attention of and has drawn favorabli
comment from faculty of universities
and colleges throughout the country
It is looked upon as one of the mos
beneficial undertakings in thetrealr
of sociology conducted by a studen
organization.
True compensation for support ren-
dered the camp in these yearly Tag
Day campaigns is vividly felt when a
person makes a personal visit to the
camp site at the lake. The sight o
the hundred boys, which is the en-
rollment of each of the four sections
taking full advantages of the splendid
camp equipment, breathing pure air
eating wholesome food, getting a
swim twice daily, being exposed to the
great out-of-doors in play and in nature
study, having ideal sleeping quarters
with an abundance of fresh air, is one
that is sufficient to immediately sell
the observer on the camp idea.
The splendid support rendered the
camp by loyal alumni, members of
the faculty and students in the Uni -
versity has made the building up and
the maintenance of the camp possible
The work has progressed from year
to year resulting in the recruiting of
new supporters in addition to those
who are already helping. The suc-
cessful raising of a budget of approxi-
mately $8,000 is in itself a testimony
to the wide and deep-seated interest
that is shown in the activities of the
camp.
With the greater share of the budget
raised among alumni and friends, and
with $2,000 contributed by the student
body of the regular session, the Sum-
mer Session quota has been set at
$500 with the hope that no difficulty
will be experienced in raising that
nominal amount.
Each student will be asked to con-
tribute today to the support of this

WHAT COST CONQUEST?
It is now more than a month since
the ill-fate crew of the Nobile dirig-
ible Italia descended on the icy wastes
of the Arctic, and enlisted the sym-
pathy and aid of a large part of the
civilized world. At the end of this
month and more, through the devasta-
tion wrought by the Arctic blizzards
in the meantime, some half dozen sur-
vivors of the crew have been rescued,
and more than a dozen men have been
lost in fruitless search for them.
Thousands of dollars in money have
been spent in attempting to reach the
marooned party, two airplanes lie
wrecked on Arctic shores, and still
there are several parties lost in the
vast wastes, without food or equip-
ment.
All of this tremendous expenditure
of men and money, of talent and
genius, has been brought about for no
material or scientific gain. The
Italia when it was lost was on no er-
rand of importance-not even on an
errand of geographical significance-
and had the commanders of that
dirigible awaited further motivation
than the spotlight of world affairs,
their ship would never have taken the
air, and the lives of the brave men
who perished in attempting to reach
them would have been saved.
It is this kind of thing, more than
anything else, which will finally turn
the public favor away from expedi-
tions into the frozen Arctic wastes,
The public will find it difficult to draw
the line, for instance, between a fool-
hardy attempt such as that under-
taken by Nobile and a flight under-
taken in the truest interests of science
and exploration-such as the present
contemplated one of Byrd to the South
Pole. Man, if he is ever to advance
consistently, must constantly keep
alive his thirst for knowledge of
realms unknown, and knowledge of
the Antarctic, as will be gained by
Byrd and his party, is one manifesta-
tion of this progress. Such an at-
tempt is worthy, perhaps, the peril of
human life which it incurs, and the
dangers which attend it; and it is
moved by none of the selfish effort at
self-exaltation which propelled the
tragic Italia expedition.
If we are to have conquest of space,
of frozen wastes, of nature, let it come
with as little sacrifice of life as pos-
sible. May humanity ever condemn
foolhardy and reckless endeavors to
these ends, and may it ever lend its
unstinted support to sound, sincere
efforts to aid to man's increasing store
of knowledge.
France and Italy have decided to
sign the treaty denouncing war. 1'
might be a good idea to have this on
engraved of brass so there will be no
mistaking it for a "scrap of paper"
as some treaties have been considered.
About the only logical use for the
straw votes which are so popular
right now, is to see which way the
wind is blowing.

Oscar, Rolls' wonder-horse, na-
tionally famous educator and ad-
vocator of birth control, stated in
a speech before the Daughters of
the American Revolution that Re-
gents should not fish for Presi-
dents because they are likely to
catch carp. He also declared that
Regents should not dynamite
Presidents because they might
waste the charge.

Now that Sue has contributed
again, all that remains for us to
do is to find out who she is. Sue
has always retained her identity
as a mystery, just like some of
her contributions. But we are of-
fering a reward of any three of
President Little's best "fish" poles
to the person who will supply us
with positive information leading
to the discovery of the identity of
Sue.
