Wallace, of Carnegie Institute, E. W. Hickman to Assist Direction. Opening with Philip Barry's bril- liant comedy, "Holiday," in the Lydia Mendelssohn theatre tomor- row night, Play Production's Mich- igan Repertory players will offer a series of seven presentations which will appear the latter half of each week during the entire Summer Session, a new play being produced each Wednesday night and contin- uing through Saturday night. Mr. Chester M. Wallace, head of the Drama school at Carnegie In- stitute of Technology and one of the foremost amateur directors in this country, who last summer was guest director for Play Production, has returned to assist Mr. Valentine B. Windt in the summer produc- tions. Mr. Elmer W. Hickman, who has spent many successful years in the professional theatre, is return- ing as an amateur director. Comedy Is First. "Holiday," the initial play of the series, deals with the antics of New York's smart set and is rich with Barry's sparkling dialogue. With Donald Ogden Stewart, the humor- ist, and Hope Williams in the lead- 'ing roles, the play had a long and successful run in New York. The program also includes such plays as "The Criminal Code," a powerful drama of prison life as seen from the prisoner's angle. It has not yet been released for ama- teur production and was secured only by special arrangement with 'the author, Martin Flavin. "Close Harmony" by Dorothy Parker and Elmer Rice is also on the program. This play, when pre- sented in New York was described by many of the critics as the finest comedy of American middle class life ever written. Jules Romain's delightful French farce, "Doctor Knock," which is aimed at the practices of quack doctors, will also be mounted. Rickman Play Listed. "The First Year," by Frank Cra- ven, which is scheduled for produc- tion, is a comic tragedy with inti- mate glimpses of domestic and soc- ial life. Also included on the list from which the plays will be chos- en, are "A Marriage of Conveni- ence," by Sidney Grundy, a brilli- ant and sophisticated French cos- tume play; a dramatization of Du- mas' "Three Musketeers" made by Elmer Hickman who will direct the summer production personally; "Beyond the Horizon," Eugene o'Neill's Pulitzer prize winner; "Liliom," by Ferenc Molnar, a pic- ture of Hungarian carnival life; and "Ulysses," by Stephen Phillips, a poetic drama of the late nine- teenth century. Seven plays from this list will be selected for public presentation. Season tickets which are good for any performance are priced at $4.00 and may be obtained at the box of- fice of the theatre or at a booth in the corridor of University hall.

SCHOOLS TO LISTEN-IN Plans are nearing completion for a series of Michigan radio pro- grams during the coming year which promises to be of broader scope and more universial interest than any series yet presented, ac- cording to a recent announcement by Prof. Waldo M. Abbot of the rhetoric department, the director of broadcasting. This series, which is to be broad- cast over station WJR, Detroit, will commence on September 28 and will continue through 25 weeks ex- cluding vacation periods. Accord- ing to the present program outline, 300 speakers from the faculties of the University will be required. The Michigan Night programs, which have proved so popular dur- ing the last six years, will be con- tinued. Each of these programs, which will be presented at 8 o'- clock every Saturday night, will consist of three ten-minute talks by members of the University fac- ulties, and music by the School of Music faculty and students. These programs are to be addressed par- ticularly to adults, according to Professor Abbot. On Sundays at 3:30 o'clock, a program will be broadcast by the Extension division of the Univer- sity, directed to the Parent Teach- ers associations of Michigan. Pro- fessor Abbot states that more than 75,000 listeners are assured for this program. On Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday of each week, a one- half hour program will be broad- cast from Morris hal, starting at 1:30 o'clock in the afternoon. This program will follow a popular fea- ture, "The National Farm and Home Hour," and thus it will be assured of an audience already cre- ated before it goes on the air. Pro- fessor Abbot has arranged with a number of Michigan high schools to receive these programs in assem- blies. The audience will therefore include high school students and teachers, as well as housewives and rural listeners. Two twelve-minute talks and a six-minute music inter- im will be presented in the half- hour period. According to Professor Abbot, va- rious departments of the Univer- sity are being asked to supply speakers for a series of talks. Each group will then present four or more successive lectures on assoc- iated topics on succeeding after- noon programs. Speakers from two groups will be on each program, and each department will com- mence a program before an as- sociated department has completed its series. Requests have already been re- ceived from alumni for series of talks on special subjects. Public health, history, languages, art and research are among the suggested tonics. "Pet aversions as to what con- stitutes a worse sort of racial cross have been the basis of much pub- licly expressed opinion on the in- termixture of races," said Prof. A. Franklin Shull of the Zoology De- partment of the University, in an illustrated lecture Monday after- noon at the Natural Science audi- torium, on the subject "A Biologist Looks at Immigration." Quoting the opinion of Dr. Rothel H. Johnson that the mixture of Chinese and Filipino peoples pro- duces a superior stock. Professor Shull declared that, "no one knows from experimental or observational evidence that hybrids are inferior to the parent stocks. Examine Before Immigration. "Immigration laws should be bas- ed on discovering .whether the im- migrant is a desirable human be- ing and not on geographical boun- daries," he continued. "One can learn more about an individual by examining the family history of the close blood relatives than by sub- jecting the applicant to an indi- vidual examination," Professor Shull suggested that the prospec- tive immigrant should be examined abroad before his departure for the United States. "The cost of such a process would be no hindrance to its success," he said. Economic factors had played a most important part in our immi- gration legislation so far but great- er attention was now being given to the biologic effects of immigration, and still greater attention will be paid to them, "for," said Professor Shull, "eventually intermarriage takes place between the descend- ants of the immigrants and the de- scendants of the earlier inhabitants of the country. Up to 1880 north- western Europe supplied the bulk of our immigrants but since then southeastern Europe has taken the lead." Change Tomorrow's Lecture. In a study of the racial extrac- tion of the inmates of criminal and charitable institutions of the coun- try by Dr. Laughlin for a committee of the Federal House of Represen- tatives under the headings of crime, insanity, feeblemindedness, dependence, epilepsy and tubercu- losis it was found that the south- eastern European countries had contributed more than their share to the inmates of these institutions. Although Professor Shull did not consider these findings as final, since many social customs entered into the problem, he considered the I immigration laws built on these investigations superior in scientific value. Prof. Edward H. Kraus, Dean of the Summer Session, introduced the speaker and announced the change of subject for the lecture July 1. Prof. Bruce M. Donaldson, of the Department of Fine Arts, will lec- ture on the subject, "Distinguished Modern American Painters,' at the Natural Science Auditorium at 5 p. m. FOUR EDUCATORS RECEIVEHONORS Four members of the University faculty were given awards for thei exhibits at the American Medica association meeting held recently Prof. Cyrus S.

Soule were awardeda gold medal "for excellence of pre I sentation of studies on respiratio and dissociation of micro-organ Irnsa " Summer Regulation Allows Use of Cars to Many Students All students, regardless of which' college they may be registered in, who were enrolled during the past year in this or any other school, are required to register their cars in the dean of students' office, W. B. Rea stated yesterday. Automobile permits may be ob- tained for recreational purposes by all students who are not on proba- tion or warning, and who are not repeating or making up courses which they have previously taken. Limit Social Use. A limited social use of cars forj the purpose of transportation for f such sports as golf, tennis, and swimming is permitted under thisU ruling. By no means is it to bet taken however, that any social use of cars will be tolerated after 9 o'clock at night. Any mixed driv- ing after this hour will be inter- preted as a violation of the permit. Aimless driving about town will also be considered as a violation of the automobile ban, he explained. Rulings restricting the student use of cars for the Summer Session went into effect at 8 o'clock Mon- day morning. Those who were en- gaged in professional occupations during the preceding school year of 1929-30 and were not enrolled as students either here or at other colleges and universities are exempt from the observance of the ruling. It will not be necessary for such students to register their carsdat the office of the Dean of Students, provided they have handed in an automobile registration card at the1 office of the school in which they are enrolled. Must Present Applications. All other students, regularly en- rolled as such during the preceding year, must present applications at room 2 University hall accompanied by letters of approval from their- parents, for driving permits. Any act of driving, however, prior to ob- taining permits and attaching tags in the approved manner, will con- stitute a violation of the ruling and will be treated accordingly. There- fore, any student whose circum- stances admit the possibility of confusion with regard to driving privileges should call at the office of the Dean of Students without delay. FOREIGN TROOPS LEAVE RHINELAND (By Associated Press) Wiesbaden, Germany, June 30.-- The inter-allied Rhineland com- mission today closed up shop, hauled down the French and Brit- ish flags over their headquarters and left Germany. So ended the commission's long career, at one period of which it ruled the des- tinies of 15,000,000 Germans in the occupied territories. The French army, marching out of the Rhineland today, turned back to Germany full control of the territory. There were half a million troops along the Rhine after the armistice -French, Belgian, British, Italian and American-but as other na- tions withdrew and the zones were evacuated, the army of occupa- tion dwindled to about 25,000 men " these last few months. By tonight all will be gone. A word of honor replaced force today as the guarantee for German reparations. The Young plan, with its bank for international settle- ments and the recent issues of Ger- man reparation bonds in nine coun- tries, now has the half-century job of settling German war indemni- ties to the allies. V The occupation of the Ruhr, r which the Germans called "inva- 1 lion," in 1923, was the high point . in action, in controversy and psy- . chological effect during the ten e and a half years of the occupation e under the treaty of Versailles.
