had seen the picture in Cleveland just
before coming to college, immediately
began to praise it in the most extrava-
gant terms and said he must see it

WHAT IS. THE PICTURE ANYHOW?
And Who Wrote the Story?
Anthony P. Kelly is the author. He
wrote "THE GREAT DIVIDE" and
"THE SOUL OF A WOMAN," two un-
usually popular photoplays. "The
Light at Dusk" depicts the life of a
Russian tiller of the soil who comes to
America to seek a fortune. He meets
with wonderful success, but at the
sacrifice of all else that is really worth
while in life. Years afterward his
forsaken wife and daughter in Russia
and the daughter's husband come to
America and the latter secure work
in the great steel mills of the father
who in America has a new name. The
story deals with the great struggle of
the father in the amassing of an im-
mense fortune and his family being
brought to a realization that there is
something far more important in life
than /mere dollars and commercial
power. Whether you like it or not
you will find it a strong, human story
exceedingly well acted. If you don't
think it is worth a dime call at the
box office on your way out and get
your ten cents. If you think it is worth
a quarter, you can keep the extra fif-
teen cents.

RULES~ O FRLD
: GRANT COLLEGES
Regulations Passed in Washington Af-
feet Only Schools Establish-
ed After 1862
DO NOT APPLY TO MICHIGAN
The regulations and instructions
passed by the conference of university
and college presidents and members o
the war department in Washington
Tuesday, were made primarily for
those educational institutions which
were given land grants by the federal
government in 1862, according "to
President Harry B. Hutchins, who re-
turned from the meeting Thursday.
The resolutions follow directly in the
wake of the recently passed National
Defense bill.
These land grant colleges, as they
are called, were established following
a federal grant of land in 1862. The
government grant carried with it
the obligation that the institutions re-
ceiving the property must have mil-
itary training. An example of this is
the University of Illinois, which al-
ways has and always will have military
training, if it wants to maintain its
title to the land given it by the gov-
ernment.
The University of Michigan, accord-
ing to the president, does not fall with-
in this class of institutions, for the
simple reason that it was founded in
1837, many years before the date on
which the government made its do-
nation. Neither are such instiutions
as Harvard, Yale, nor any other univer-
sities founded prior to 1862, land grant
colleges.
The committee that was appointed
by the war department is for the pur-
pose of studying problems connected
with non-military colleges, such as
Michigan. The opinion of the commit-
tee is that all actual drill and technic-
al work done by members of non-mil-
itary institutions should be done In the
summer military training camps, such
as Ptattsburg.
The president pointed out that the
University of Michigan now offers ap-
proximately 90 per cent of the theoret-
ical courses offered at West Point.
These courses are given for the most
part in the engineering college.
The essence of the resolutions pass-
ed by the Washington conference is
as follows:
1. Military training in non-military
colleges must be on a more elastic
procedure than in military institutions.
2. In institutions offering military
training, the professor of military sci-
ence and tactics and thre president of
the institution should be at liberty to
admit to the advanced courses any stu-
lent who, in their opinion, has had in-
struction equivalent to the preceding
courses.
3. That prescribed courses should
>e subect to modifications proposed by
he professor of military science and
:actics and the president of the institu-
ion and approved by the war de-
;artment.
4. Required military drill may be
aken in whole or in part in military
ummer camps.
The course of study to be mapped
ut by the war department, President
Rutchins says, is only for the land
,rant colleges, and does not affect oth-
r institutions. Of course voluntary
nilitary training among members of
he University, such as was held last
pring and is being organized at pres-
nt, is a matter wholly in the hands
>f the student body.

A keen rivalry has sprung up be-
tween Michigan's two big institutions
of learning, supplying a new element
to enrich the life of these colleges. It
holds much promise for the future if
handled in a friendly spirit.
The intense ardor of today's rivalry
may approach bitterness. Let every
loyal son bear in mind the tenets of
true sportsmanship.
AN ALUMNUS OF BOTH SCHOOLS.
The remarkable scenic effect in the
.ast or volcanic scene of Oliver Mor-
osco's "Bird of Paradise" production
has been the subject of much comment
and many questions.
Mr. Morosco, in arranging for the
Ataging of Mr. Tully's play, found the
vhole mechanical force of the com-
pany in despair of obtaining the effects
t
which author Tully demanded. They
ucceeded only in producing a volcano
if flapping canvas, highly apparent,
ed-painted incandescent globes and
wheezing windlasses. Efforts by invit-
ed and volunteer talent from without
produced results no more realistic.
Two nights before the production in
New York, Mr. Morosco set about get-
ting the desired effect. After an all
.iight session, experimenting with var-
ious appliances, he drew a set of plans
or the desired effect. At the final re-
hearsal Mr. Tully, the author, was sur-
prised to see a new volcano burst
through his third act, greatly improv-
ing and making strikingly realistic
the illusion in the tragic sacrifice of
Luana, which has since stimulated in-
terest in the closing scene.
The presentation of this compelling
drama is announced at the Whitney
Theatre on Monday, Oct. 23.
