Shout Powers Moulton Harold Warren, Jr. Dear Drs. Wfle: What I want to know on hot muggy days like these is what makes flies crawl on people. Last night (Thursday) I arrived home rather late and consequently de- cided to catch a little much-need- ed repose this morning (Friday). But from daylight on, the flies, just simply would not let me alone. They crawled on me until I actual- ly had to pull the blanket over my head, which was too hot to last long, and so I had to get up final- ly and sit in a chair. But there they crawled on me, too; so I was finally compelled to dress and go1 to the library to sleep. What can I do to remedy this situation? Resptfy, GLOTZ We have been thinking of offer- ing a reward, Glotz, for the discov- ery of something to make flies crawl .elsewhere, for the problem has con- MUSIC AND DRAM ERNEST BLOCH Ernest Bloch won his introduc- tion to the American public at large in a somewhat unfortunate light-as a prize winner: the au- thor of the very meretricious rhap- sody, America, which has seen two performances in Ann Arbor. Bloch is a more serious man than that. Romain Rolland, struck by the quality of his first symphony, journeyed quickly to Geneva to find the young composer. He found him: climbing up to the ceiling of his mother's shop to pile some blouses for her. The story is fam- ous: Rolland: So you are Bloch, the composer. And this is what you do. Bloch: Not all the time. Rolland: Ah, then most of your time you devote to your music? Bloch: Oh, no, I lecture at the University of Geneva. Rolland: Splendid: on the his- tory of music? Bloch: No. On metaphysics. 3 PORTABLE TYPEWRITERS We have all makes. Remington, Royals, Corona, Underwood Colored duco finishes. Price $60 0. D.
