In other places it was so dis- :1 that if returned the ticket seller Id go to sleep on her job. In the ade Lobby this week people look- at the announcement of this feat- have expressed the most widely rgent opinions. Two ladies came One said, "Well if they ar6n't go- to show 'The Light at Dusk' here Saturday. For heaven's sake HE BESTE Mary, don't see it. I saw it in Toledo yesterday, and I just hate such pic- tures. I would much rather stay at home and study math. or darn stock- ings." Next came four fellows, who also saw the announcement of "The Light at Dusk." One of them, who 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 again and advised his companions to do so without fail. He declared that VER---A M it was a powerful story with a thrill- ing human appeal-one of the few really good pictures gotten out this year. And so it went, all the evening -some condemning, some giving the picture unstinted praise. The picture critics likewise differ, some condemn- ing it almost viciously, others seem- ingly unable to say enough in its favor. Some say that the admission should be at least 25 cents while others de- clare people should be paid to sit through 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. REMEMBER-Clara Kimball Young in "The Common Law," October 30-31.

ISERABLE FAILURE That's the way the movie fans talk about this play 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.

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. WE I W. m0 Na ge( a ell Known Southern Surgeon Dies Richmond, Va., Oct. 20.-Dr. Cbarle: P.
