XLVI No. 8 ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, WEDNESDAY, JULY 7, 1937 PRICE FIVE CENTS Critic Tells Of Japanese Poetry Forms Poem Of Standard Meter, 17 Syllables, Subject Of Lecture Sakanishi Speaks In Session Lecture The Japanese "haiku," a poem of standardized meter and form, only 17 syllables long, was described by Dr. Chio Sakanishi, Ph.D. '29, widely rec- ognized critic, reviewer and transla- tor of Japanese verse, as an extremely simplified, and yet complete art form in her Summer Session lecture yes- terday in Natural Science Auditor- ium. Dr. Sakanishi, whose talk was spon- sored by the Institute of Far Eastern Studies, is the outstanding English translator of modern Japanese poetry, having three volumes to her credit, Akiko Yosano's "Tangled Hair," Ta- kuboku's "A Handful of Sand," and Sachio Ito's "Songs of a Cowherd." Quotes Haikus To illustrate her discussion, Dr. Sa- kanishi quoted several haikus from a volume of both modern and former Japanese poets which she is now en- gaged in translating. The haiku, she declared, dates from the seventh cen- tury, and has been employed by philosophers, tradesmen, and artisans to express their though throughout the centuries. "The Japanese," she said, "have always felt a keen sym- pathy for all living things, animals and plants alike. They understand nature deeply, and have infinite pa- tience to watch the setting sun, or lie for hours gazing at the rising moon." Condensation Apparent The power of condensation is ap- parent to a high degree in the haiku,, Dr. Sakanishi pointed out in noting' the extreme brevity of the form. She divided the haikus into three classes, those dealing with animals, birds, etc., those describing la.ndscapes, and those having to do with human beings. As a typical example of how the Jap- anese poet expresses himself in these short verses, she quoted: "A leaf whirls down Upon the breeze." In this poem, she said, the poet, about to die, compares himself to a falling, leaf. In connection with the philosophyi underlying Japanese poetry D. Sa- kanishi spoke of the "worship of the; relative," saying "relativity seeks ad-; justment, and the man who adjusts; himself well to his surroundings is successful in life. Unless you can open your mind to outside influences and ideas, your life wil be incom- plete." Legal Expert Stresses Need For Sanctions Discusses Contributions Of International Law To World Peace The present need of automatic sanctions in the enforcement of peace was stressed last night by Prof. George G. Wilson in the public ad- dress of the Summer Session of In- ternational Law. Professor Wilson expressed his con- fidence in the peace functions of in- ternational law as he traced its pro- gress from the 1899 Hague Conference up to the wide range of activities which it is called on to regulate in 1937. The many cases that were settled by arbitration and pacific methods during the first decade of the cen- tury were cited by Professor Wilson as he said that the world was just be- ginning to look forward to a long period of peace under international law. "The German Chancellor on Aug. 4, 1914, definitely stated that he was acting contrary to the dictates of in- ternational law," Professor Wilson said, "and the states entering the war issued more than 50 declarations, thus showing their respect for the con- ventions adopted in 1907. Following is a digest of Professor Wilson's speech: "Twentieth century international law naturally dates from the first peace conference, called by the Czar of Russia and assembling at the Cabins, Classes At Fresh Air Camp One row of the 16 newly constructed cabins at Lake Patterson, each holding 10 boys is shown, at the top; and below is shown a class in weaving, one of many such activities at the Fresh Air Camp, endowed by personal contributions of students, faculty, and friends of the organ- ization. * * * * University .Fresh.Air cam Gives 320 Youngsters Rollicking Time Season Will Open With 201 Counselors To Instruct Boys In FairPlayf By JAMES A. BOOZER The drone of carpenter's saws and1 recurrent blows of hammers have giv- en way to shouts of 160 boys at Pat- terson Lake as the University Fresh1 Air Camp starts its 17th season. The 200-acre camp 25 miles from Ann Arbor, resounds this week withj yells and scraps of song from the throats of boys, some of whom havet never been off the street car line, and at night they are coaxed to dreams in a dozen roomy cabins by new phe- nomena-crickets. This year about 320 fellows from 1 nine to 15 years old, many of whom would not otherwise be able to afford the pleasures of four weeks in the open, will enjoy the camp in two1 periods of that length. I According to George G. Alder,di- rector, not only financially under- privileged boys are sought, but those socially undernourished as well. The staff under Mr. Alder is composed of University students and graduates. Twenty experienced counselors are provided to instruct the cabins in swimming, handicraft, nature lore and most important-square dealing. One youngster from Platt decided to walk out and leave the camp fiatI last Thursday. It was all right-the' eats, the swimming, the baseball and the hikes, but he'd had enough. He was going home. Above him in the double-decker bed was a mattress with a hole in it, and when the fellow up there moved, straw filtered down to cover his mate. He had stood itL three nights, and was packing to leave when persuaded by his counsel- or to think twice. The flight was de- First Tea Dance This Afternoon At TheLeagyuei The first of the series of tea dances to be held each Wednesday duringC the Summer Session will be from 4 to 6 p.m .today in the League ballroom according to Jean Bonisteel, '38, chairman of the tea dances. Charlie Zwick and several members of his orchestra will furnish the music. The dance is open to all students, both men and women. k Miss Bonisteel stated that hostesses will be provided for dancing. There will be no admission charge as the tea is being sponsored by the Under- graduate Council of the League that ferred on the offer to provide anotherc mattress. Last week some of the cabins visit-I ed the General Motors provingI grounds at Milford, and a Tiger1 baseball game is a high point thisa week. Aims of the camp are better citi-a zenship, development of leadership, t prevention of delinquency, communi- ty cooperation and integration, andI "happier, healthier, and more useful young citizens." In 17 years more than 6,000 boys have been cared for. t Continuing contact is maintained through 12 cooperating agencies, in-e cluding Ann Arbor Public Schools, I Children's Center, Detroit, Dodge t Community Center, Detroit, and oth-r er agencies in Wyandotte, Ham- tramck, Ann Arbor and Detroit, all of1 which select boys for the camp. Boys take back memories of eve- ning log fires, where around the glowing logs songs are sung, plays and occasional inspirational talks are presented ,and a feeling of happy comradeship prevails. Then, when the campfire has burned to red em- (Continued on Page 3) Education Still State Function, Dcan Contends' Federal Participation Wast Foreseen In Constitution, Edmonson Believes In general it may be said that American education is at present a state rather than a federal function, Dean James B. Edmonson yesterday told the first day's session of the League College--a two week confer- ence supplementary to the National Education Association, being held in Ann Arbor this summer. "The word education is not men- tioned in the Constitution as adopted in 1789," Dean Edmonson said, "al- though the problem of education was given consideration by the Constitu- tional Convention. Some authorities believe that the framers included im- plied references to education in order to warrant Federal participation at a later time." Dean Edmonson pointed out that in the early years of the country it was the policy of the government to give land endowments and other fi- nancial aid without attempting to control specific educational policies. The government has been gradually increasing its stipulations by requir- ing local appropriations to match Whittemore To Talk On English Gardens Prof. Harlow E. Whittemore of the landscape design department will de- liver the next Summer Session lec- ture at 5 p.m. today in Natural Sci- ence Auditorium. His subject will be "Four English Amateur Garden- ers." The four gardeners whose work Professor Whittemore will discuss are John Morant of Brockenhurst Park, New Forest; William Robinson of Gravetye Manor; Gertrude Jekyll of Munstead Wood and Sir Frank Crisp of Frier Park. Only the last-named is still living, according to Professor Whittemore, but all have had great influence on gardening in England in the last century and cosequently in America. Miss Jekyll and Robinson are the authors of a number of books on gardening, he said. The gardens' of all four are maintained today and are open to visitors to England. Ethan Frome' To Open Today For 4 Day Run Ralph Bell, Mary Pray, Claribel Baird Starred In New England Drama 1 "Ethan Frome," a drama by Owen and Donald Davis from the novel by Edith Wharton, will be the second ffering of the current summer sea- on of the Repertory Players, opening at 8:30 p.m. today in the Lydia Men lelssohn Theatre. It will be repeated Thursday, Friday and Saturday at the1 same time. The play deals with the frustration and tragedy of lives of three people in the little New England town oft stockfield. A notable success in New, York during the past year, it is ex-_ pected to provide one of the highlights of the Repertory season. The title role will be played by Ralph Bell, '37, supported by Claribel Baird and Mary Pray in the feminine leads. Miss Baird will portray Eth- an's nagging hypochondriacal wife, Zenobia, while Miss Pray will en- act the ingenue role of the girl Mat- tie. The tragedy will be directed by Valentine B. Windt, Director of Play Production. One of the features of the pro- duction will be the settings designed by Alexander Wyckoff, art director. Six separate sets have been construct- ed to lend background and atmos-1 phere to the play. Costumes have been prepared by Evelyn Cohen, di- rector of costume designing. To Fete Foreign Students H e r e At TheLeague A reception for foreign students of the Summer Session will be held at 10 p.m. today in the concourse of the League and adjoining rooms, and will be preluded by a symposium of Chin- ese students under the leadership of Prof. Y. Z. Chang of the English de- partment. "Some Aspects of Modern China" will be the theme of the symposium to be held at 8:15 p.m. Delegates to the Conference of the International Service Committees of Rotary are in- vited to attend the symposium by Prof. J. Raleigh Nelson, counselor to foreign students. The symposium will be held in the ballroom of the League. Three hundred invitations have been issued for the reception, ac- cording to Profesor Nelson, includ- ing all foreign students enrolled in the Summer Session, those connected with the Institute of Far Eastern Studies,and other members of the, faculty. "It is hoped," Professor Nelson said, "that the symposium and reception following will bring together in a helpful way, three groups that should have many interests in common-the foreign students of the University, members of the Institute of Far East- ern Studies and representatives of Rotary International."

Dean Scheduled To Pitch WASHINGTON, July 6--(/P)---The National Capital will take a baseball holiday tomorrow, subject to possible senatorial amendments, while the major leagues put on their fifth an- nual All-Star show for the benefit of President Roosevelt and an expected capacity crowd of nearly 32,000 fans. Hand-picked by the rival pilots, Bill Terry of the New York Giants, and Joe McCarthy of the New York Yankees, the opposing battle-lines, drawn up definitely tonight, featured an opening pitchers' duel between the unpredictable Jerome Herman (Diz- zy) Dean, ace right-hander of the St. Louis Cardinals, and Vern (Goofy) Gomez of the Yankees. Capacity Crowd Assured For the first time since the inter- league "dream game" became a real- ity at Chicago in 1933, the S.R.O. sign will be out. Griffith Stadium, includihg even the bleacher seats at 55 cents each, has been sold out in advance. Standing room for 1,000 fans, at $1.10 each, will be sold short- ly before the signal to play ball at 1:30 p.m. (Detroit Time). The Nationals suffered a blow when big Van Lingle Mungo, fireball right- hander of the Brooklyn Dodgers, came up with a sore back. Mungo was Terry's original choice to share the pitching job with Dean and Carl Hubbell, the Giants' screwball mas- ter, in three-inning hitches. After failing in efforts to obtain either Paul Derringer of the Cincin- nati Reds or Lon Warneke of the Cardinals as a replacement Terry tonight decided to call on his star young right-hander Clydell Castle- man, as a replacement for Mungo, if needed. Mungo planned to be on hand anyway. Summer Plans of French Club Are Announced The summer schedule of events for, the Cerele Francais was announced yesterday by Prof. A. J. Jobin, direc- tor of the club for the Summer Ses- sion. The schedule includes talks by members of the French department, a musicale and a concluding banquet. Prof. Eugene Rovillain will speak July 8 on "Souvenirs d'un Ancien Marin." Prof. Rene Talamon will address the club July 14, and Prof. Francis Gravit will speak on Henry IV July 22. Prof. Charles Knudson will conclude the faculty talks July 29. A recital by a student in the School of Music is planned for Au- gust 5, and the date for the farewell banquet is August 12. The initial meeting of the club last week was an organization meeting, which was attended by 35 students. James O'Neill, of the French depart- ment, spoke on "Les Classes et Les Lettres en France."

'Benefit Game Will Be Played In Washington, Selected Baseball To Perform In Of Large Crowd Clubs Front Today Bingham Assailed By German Paper BERLIN, July 6.---(P)--Germany's official news agency distributed throughout the Reich tonight a Ger- man newspaper's editorial assailing Robert W. Bingham, United States Ambassador to London, for his speech on despots yesterday. The editorial, printed in the Deutsche Allgemeine Zeitung, charged that Bingham's speech at an Ameri- can Independence Day observance in London "incited the so-called democ- racies against the so-called dictator- ships in almost unbelievable fashion." Bingham told the American So- ciety in London that "despots have forced America and Britain to un- dertake rearmament and, having un- dertaken it, we must necessarily win the rearmament race." Campus Studio To Broadcast Throunh WJR J 1 Ij l s i t t I 7 3 First Program Is July Carillon To Go On July 18 12;1 Air Michigan will go on the air over thet facilities of Station WJR Detroit for a half hour program at 3 p.m. every Tuesday through Thursday for the five weeks beginning July 12, Prof. Waldo C. Abbott, director of the Uni- versity broadcasting station an- nounced yesterday. Broadcasts will originate at the University studio in Morris Hall. Headlining the first weeks program, Wilmer Pratt, University carillon- neur, will broadcast a carillon pro- gram at 10 p.m. Sunday, July 18.{ Scenes from "First Lady" the Kath- rine Dayton-George Kaufman com- edy hit will be presented at 3 p.m. Wednesday, July 14. "First Lady" will be the Play Production show for the week beginning July 12. The Summer Session broadcasts which are produced by students in the broadcasting speech courses under the direction of Professor Ab- bott, will present many of the non- resident lecturers on the Summer School faculty. First of these will be Dr. H.- C. Hutchins, member of the staff of the Educational Policies Commission of the National Education Association, who will speak on the significance of America's Youth Problem. Dr. Hutchins will be heard at three o'clock on Thursday, July 15th. The series will be opened on Mon- day by a round table discussion of the interest evidenced by teachers and other professional people in broadcasting. "Because of the university's posi- tion and because they will be sus- taining programs, we have a chance to do some very valuable experiment- ing," said Professor Abbott. "The choral reading which will form part of the Wednesday program is of that type. Some very interesting effects have been obtained through this kind of interpretation." Further programs will include a news resume of events on the Mich- igan campus and a dramatization of Bret Harte's tale of the old West, "The Outcasts of Poker Flat." NORRIS IN HOSPITAL WASHINGTON, July 6.-({P)-A "No Visitors" sign hung on Senator George Norris's room in Naval Hos- pital today to permit the white- haired Nebraska Progressive to get "a complete rest" before returning to his legislative duties. Relatives said Nor- ris, who suffered an intestinal dis- turbance is "getting stronger daily." Tense Senate Some observers suggested that it might be a move for an agreement that would avert a filibuster. Whee- ler, questioned by reporters, conceded the discussion had dealt with the court bill, but said the parliamentary situation was unaffected by the con- ference. He said he is still against any increase of the Supreme Court. The compromise calls for the ap- pointment of an additional Supreme Court justice for every incumbent who continues to serve beyond the age of 75 with such additional ap- pointments limited to one each year. Third Session Tour To Start At 12:30 P.M. Starts Debate On Court Act Robinson Sees Filibuster On Compromise Measure As Arguments Develop Lengthy Iiscussion, Conferences, Feared WASHINGTON, July 6.-(;P)-The Senate, excited and absorbed, began debating the Administration's com- promise Court Bill today with hard feelings poorly hidden beneath a thin veneer of good nature. The give-and-take of parliamen- tary discussion emphasized anew the stout wedge that the court reorgan- ization proposals and the conflict over them have driven into the Dem- ocratic membership. Senator Robinson, the majority leader, waggled a finger beneath the nose of Senator Wheeler (Dem., Mont.), an opposition leader, and let it be known that if a filibuster de- velops, the Senate will be kept in continuous session until it is broken. He expressed hope that when the measure has been "adequately de- bated "those who are opposed to it will yield without putting the Senate to the vast inconvenience of long days and long nights, in a test of physical endurance." Maneuvering Begins Maneuvering and conferences, of which there will be many, began at almost the exact time the Senate took up the bill. President Roose- velt conferred with Wheeler and with Senator Bone (Dem., Wash.), the latter a supporter of the compromise bill. Group M Hall ] Rouge W'ill For Leave Ford Angell River Plant Busses will leave at 12:30 p.m. to- day from Angell Hall for the 1,096 acre Ford plant on the banks of the River Rouge for the third excursion of the Summer Session. The tentative plan for the tour in- -lude a visit to the meter assembly plant, the final assembly lines, the open hearth furnaces and the rolling mill. An inspection of the blast furnaces will be the first step of the party, for t is here that all operations of the Rouge plant start. From there the party will move to the open hearth furnaces where the melted ore is made into ingots. Rehabilitation Of Handicapped Called Responsibility Of Society By JACK DAVIS Great is the responsibility of so- ciety for the rehabilitation of indi-I viduals who because of physical de- fects have become out of tune with society Prof. John H. Muyskens of the phonetics department and director of the Institute for Human Adjustments, stated yesterday. Purely selfish motives said Profes- sor Muyskens decree that such people be given aid toward correcting their difficulties and in mingling with nor- mal human beings. "Such maladjustments render them in many cases extremely dangerous to society he said. Set apart by their Efects thevu lar iunder a haindicap fluences and economic problems thei result is unfortunate to a heedless society. Defects of speech, of hearing, and of sight'are believed to be primary forces causing anti-social careers, he stated, and by making a child con- scious of not belonging, they inter- pose barriers to a normal personality development. And out of such de- velopment come our spectacular gangsters. Correction should not be our main object for correction is expensive both in money terms and in terms of per- sonality already warped, Professorl Muyskens said. More important, he continued, is to anticipate future trouble. It is believed that most de From here, the party will proceed to the rolling mill where the ingots tre rolled into definite shapes which are ultmiately parts of the automo- biles. The meter assembly line will be the next step in the tour. Here the parts made in the open hearth furnaces are assembled into meters. From the meter assembly lines, the party will move on to the final assembly lines where the car bodies are placed over the meters and rolled off the line as me complete unit. Busses from the trip will return to Ann Arbor about 5:30 p.m. Reser- vations are $1.25 per person and should be made at 1213 Angell Hall.
