FATIE1IS AFFAIR
- When grandmother arrives on the
scene in "Father's Affair," the attrac-
tion beginning Monday night at the
Bonstelle Playhouse in Detroit, things
begin to happen fast and furiously.
The audience will find itself hurrying
to keep up with everything. "Fath-
er's Affair" handles the eternal tri-
angle delicately.
It is not built around any single
character or person; it is a story of
three generations and is the kind of
a play that will find.counterparts in
an audience of all ages. It exposes
the foibles of forty; it teaches twenty
the road to happiness; and makes
three score and ten the contented
judges and jury of their grand-pro-
geny.
Arthur Harry, in writing this play,
has attacked the divorce evil from a
human standpoint-no character is
hiding a lurid past--it is the unfaith-
fulness of man and wife from an
open-minded view.
Preceding the performance, there
will be a short dance program by the
Bonstelle-Cassan dancers including
Mlle. Cassan, Thayer Roberts and
Olga Fricker. The curtain will rise
I at 8:15 o'clock as usual.
gloats in such discoveries is somewhat
discounted when we remember the
great and lasting tribute that these
four men made to aviation.
The discovery that Mr. Coolidge
got large portions of his Gary speech
from an encycolpedia has created a
tremendous commotion among the
Great Statesmen who make up their
history and statistics as they go
along.-Detroit News.
Maybe the campaign can be resumed
from the doldrums by having the
Democratic nominee next year get
Nicarague or somebody to recognize
him as our defacto President.-De-
troit News.


It was boasted with pride that
there were -locker facilities for some
2,000 or so athletes in the new build-
ing, and the statement was true. Not
only were the locker facilities there,
but there were water softeners, rub-
bing rooms, and apparatus that made,
as the Athletic Association predicted,

Perhaps even the brave and daring
correspondent who pieced this scan-
dal together would have found things
not conducive to perfect tranquility
in a flight of forty hours, during
which neither land nor water could be
seen for over half the time, and even
the type of yellow journalism that
