KERN SUNDAY, JULY 17, 1927 If we support zoological parks and aquariums and things from taxation, it seems strange that we should sot totally neglect to support equally worthwhile and much less costly i things by taxation also. Chicago, andj Illinois, of course, need the full mea- sure of public funds to support the1 public graft,, but nevertheless good orchestras are too scarce to be lightly lost, and it might even be worthwhile to1 forego some of this corruption in politics if a fine musical organization could be supported with the proceeds. After all, Chicago, and the rest of the nation that appreciates the Chicago Symphony orchestra, must pay the piper, however prosaic it may seem; for without a doubt the members of that organization deserve a standard of living at least as high as the mem- bers of the leading theater orchestras in the same town. PRESIDENT COOLIDGE IS TICTIMI OF HAIRCUT Due to the fact that The Daily found it impossible to issue an extra, suit- able notice should be taken of the fact that President Coolidge has submit- ted to a haircut. The great event took place on the front porch of the lodge in the Black Hills, and whether it was enacted for the entertainment of the women's delegations visiting him could not be discovered.i The barber, whose name could not be learned, is thouglit to have said that "President Coolidge is the bravest patient I have ever had. Never dnce, while severing any of his half dozen hairs, did I notice a murmer from the chief executive." It is rumored that President Coolidgeg also intends to shave before the summer is over, though whether this will be made a public demonstration or not could not be learned. At a late hour yesterday it could not be determined definitely whether the Coolidge family would drop five dollars on the collection plate of the backwoods church which they attend again or whether the newspaper re- THE CHICAGO SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA DISBANDS With the failure of the management end the musicians of the Chicago Sym- ihony orchestra to agree on wage ad- ustments;the organization has dis- ianded and one of the finest musical >odies in the United States is lost hereby. Particularly significant is his loss to the residents and students f Ann Arbor, who have been privi- eged to hear this great orchestra an- aually for the last 23 years, and for whose annual May Festival it has practically always furnished at least ne program, and in recent years nore. Of course the general public can never undeitand all that goes on be- hind the scenes of a symphony or- hestra, and as a rule does not care. 'he dramatic ryhthm of the violin bows, and the pulsing beat of the di- ector's baton are all that the ave- age person can or cares to see. It eems rather prosaic and almost un- worthy when into this atmosphere of Intense emotionalism there enters something as matter of fact as mu- icians' union and a wage controver- sy, as though an orchestra could be ompared to a plumbers' organization, and could strike like the United Mine Workers. It is regrettable, indeed, .hat such a situation has arisen, and t is imperative that something be done f the city of Chicago, and the musi- al interests that sponsor the orches- ra, are to retain their great musical )rganization. The average person is just as unfa- niliar with adequate musicians' sala- ies as he is with the way they play, 3o there can be no very definite pub- ic feeling on that question either. Of ourse we all know that they should iave enough to buy full dress suits or their concerts, and new strings for heir violins, and perhaps a bonus in ddition to enable them to eat from tine to time-if musicians do eat- nut as far as being able to judge whether a violinist is worth $100 a week or $80 a week, that is far be- rond our ken. W can say, however, that the loss of he Chicago Symphony orchestra, ,rained for years under.the masterful baton of Frederik Stock, would be a oss which those who love music, as Ann Arbor people apparently do love t, can ill afford. Perhaps it will all ome out well in the end, if the mu- ilcians' union can find, as it says, men who will pay its members $125 a Week, and retain Stock. The name, if course, can not be used since the >resent organization holds that, but kho cares what the name of the or- anization happens to be as long as it s the orchestra of Frederick Stock. Good orchestras are too scarce to be ightly lost. It takes years to develop hem, apparently, and it is only recent- y that one in our vicinity, the De- roit Symphony orchestra, has blos- pimed into anything approaching a rst rate organization. The respon- ibility of standing the cost of these rgaairiztions, however, should not est upon one man or a small group f men, as it usually does, but on re whole large number of citizens 'ho still appreciate the fine and beau- ful in splite of the influence of moy- Michigan's mouse hunting expedi- tion, in the far reaches of the South Sea Islands, has not been heard from by Rolls for several days. Interest comparable to that in the trans-At- lantic flyers has been manifested in the expedition, and without a doubt the nemnbers of the party will emerge from the jungle with several mice. It is rumored that many members of the species exist in the region to be visited, and the House Cats' Pro- tective league of the United State and other countries is helping to sponsor the enterprise. * * * ROLLS WILL FINANCE EXPEDITION SOMEWHERE ' Since practically the whole univer- sity is . expeditioning this summer, from the snowy wastes of Greenland, which are hearing for the first time the doctrines of militarism, to the South Sea Islands, it is only fair that Rolls also should have an expedition, so plans are underway for the fitting out of same. According to announce- ments made in authoritative circules nothing lavish wil be attempted this first year, due to lack of popular in- terest, though unstinted publicity will be accorded to same, as befits an ex- pedition. Funds wil be raised by the same methods as the Fresh Air Camp uses, and then the expedition will surely lack financial backing. ROLLS SCENARIO CONTEST WINNER NOT ANNOUNCED The winner of the Rolls movie seenario writing contest has not been announced as yet, it is rumored in several quarters on the campus. The three cheese sandwiches are becoming rather defunct, but they will be awarded as prizes anyway. The large response received has made the task oft judging exceedingly difficult. * * * HENRY FORD DOES NOT RETRACT ANY OTHER STATEMENTS Nothing more has been retracted by Mr. Ford, well known auto magnate and alumnus of the University since last week. It is rumored that the testimonial banquet to the Rabbis' as- sociation was not given as scheduled. * * * PRESIDENT COOLIDGE LIKEWISE RETRACTS NOTHING Mt. Calvin Coolidge, well known public figure and of late a cowboy, has retracted nothing likewise. No ' reason was given by the Black Hills spokesman, except that he has never said anything.

INC MAKERS porters would not be around. For the benefit of those few of our readers who have not followed carefully the actions of the chief executive since he started west, we should perhaps sum- marize briefly his activities. First, of course, the boy scouts presented him with sever l things, then the state legislature renamed a mountain or two after him, and recently he has worn a ten-gallon hat (looking notably like a real cowboy under it), and had his hair cut. Of course in addition he is reputed to have caught the usual fish or two, and the Women's party has just visited him, though for that he deserves sympathy rather than praise. All in all our president seems to be having an excellent summer, and with the aid of the faithful news agencies we can keep track of the presidential dandruff as well as though he were right -in Washington. MINNESOTA LOSES When Benny Oosterbaan scooped up a fumble in the closing moments of the Michigan-Minnesota football game last fall it started the far north state on a downward path from which it has apparently never completely recov- ered. So it is, without any astonish- ment at all that read that Minnesota has relinquished the crown in an even more worthwhile endeavor, and has failed to raise as much domestic cabbage for the manufacture of saur- kraut as the more sophisticated state of New York. Such ignomy for the home state of the Swedes is almost inconceivable. To be led by New York in the num- ON AR.ROWS H1ALLER'S State Street Jewelers ~ PARK \i .. . t E ' i i, , . i .

If found he will im- mediately be confined in the psycho- pathic hospital. "One of the most pitiful cases I have ever encountered," said the head of thA B. & G. department, "Is a stu- dent who studied last summer. .He seemed to be possessed of the obses- sion that one was supposed to study in order to pass courses in Sununer school, but after we removed him from all books for three weeks he recovered and passed the courses he was taking." In the winter time such cases sel- dom come to the attention of the Uni- versity authorities, but in the last few years several instances of this kind of illusion has come to the notice of the faculty, during the summer.

There is some consolation, of course, in the fact that the world's champion coffee drinker is a native Minnesotan, and that New York, with all its pre- cocious drinkers, can't approach the record of some 68 quarts or cups or something that this mighty Minne- sotan has hung up. The system of In no other cigarette do men find such natural- ness of taste and charac- ter -and what, after all, can be better than that?
