FRESH AIR CAMP DRIVE While those that contributed to the recent drive for funds for the fresh air camp deserve all thanks for their generosity, the campus population as a whole showed poor spirit. Approximately $300 was re- ported to have been taken in by the boy tag-sellers, which is less than seven and a half cents a per- son- for the 4000 in the summer school. We cannot but feel that this dis- interested attitude is not truly characteristic of the ordinary run of summer students. Certainly, a more .deserving charity c o u 1 dM scarcely be found than making pro- vision for a holiday for some five hnudred poor, undernourished boys from Detroit. This camp, supported as -it is in the main by the contributions of the students of the University, must fail in its purpose if the funds collected are small. A dollar more or less might mean the addition of. new equipment or the furnishing of new recreational facilities for the boys; it might mean that an- other boy could be brought out for a vacation in the sunlight and the woods away from the dull, soul- starving environment in which he must exist the greater part of the Iyear. The quota set for the drive dur- ing the regular school year at Ann Arbor was reached and passed without effort. Let us hope that another summer will find the short-session students as willing to contribute. 0A E QLL 1Music and Drama D R BEGINNING BEETHOVEN'S THIRD LOVE'S ASHES SYMPHONY i'IN 6 PARTS .

There is, first of all, the elemeni of pride which has actuated the citizens of thehstate to contribute magnanimouslytothe develop- ment of the institution. If there is any doubt that the population is proud of its university, one has only to mention Ann Arbor any- where from Escanaba to Detroit, and he will see an immediate re- sponse. Not only have the citizens of the state as a whole supported the University, buthalso every alumnus in every part of the world, witness the University of Michigan clubs lo- cated in every port, hamlet, and metropolis. All of them are boost- .ers for the Alma Mater, not nec- essarily as a matter of sentiment but because they respect and re- vere the institution and the train- ing it gives. Of course, there have been other contributing causes for this as- tounding growth. For one thing, there are a greater and greater nuamber of young men and women seeking advanced training today, and provision has had to be made for them. They have been attract- ed to Ann Arbor partly because of Michigan's position among uni- versities, partly for the traditions' here, which are long-standing for a middle-west college, and partly for its accessibility. But all these causes are to be placed below thej first.

E Flat: played by Max von Schillings and Symphony Orchestra. This recent issue of Columbia's is undoubtedly the most superb re- cording of the Eroica available. Max von Schillings is a very wise conductor of Beethoven. . His first movement is played magnificently. The rhythms are wrought with fierceness to suggest life's antagonism. There are defi- ant and titanically jocose moments. But it is never so magnified (and here he avoids the common mis- take in reading the Eroica) as to make a climactic evolution through the four movements impossible. There is no mourning in his fu- neral strains. He plays this move- ment not with Coates' cold, cere- monial dignity but warmly and sympatheticaly as an elegy. His fi- nale is vast and the richest in vol- ume. ng idea in Fountain Pens. You can select the type of pen point that suits your handwriting by a color band on the cap of each pen. You can get a pen that writes like Tom Brown's by asking for the same color, which is stamped on the pen point as well. Ask for it where you buy your supplies.
