TRUTH OR CLEVERNESS "College debaters are too often led into geeking victory rather than the truth," said a professor in class yes- terday. "One of the Vest debaters that ever charmed the judges in this part of the country became so infus- ed with the idea of the debatableness of every question that he had great difficulty in having any strong person- al beliefs for years after leaving col- lege." The playing of hosts of petty tricks to gain a victory in college life is not confined to the debating platform. Working upon the hearer's ignorance, the deceiving through clever analogy; and the appeal to traditions merely because of a superstitious awe for them-these are all blind-folders of truth. A high code of honor in ex- aminations; clean politics; studying for knowledge rather than for high percentages; and debating for con- victions as well as for the facility of thought and expression-these are more in accord with the central idea of most college ideals. For the Opera aspirants: There's many a cut twixt the try-out and the trip. Daily headline: "First University Battalion Mustered Today." This has a flavor all its own. 100 0 JOBS IN THE .LAST 100 DAYS This is the report up to date of the "Y" Employ- ment Bureau.

He is a man of extraordinary musical gifts and wherever he has played with the orchestra has had a marked suc- cess. Mr. Witek has a remarkable memory, having 28 concertos, any one of which he is ready to play with or- chestfa at a half hour's notice. These run from the great classical works of Beethoven and Brahms to the tre- mendously difficult technical prob- lems which have been before violin- ists by Paganini and Ernst. In speaking of the Boston Symphony orchestra a few years ago, Mr. Wil- liam J. Henderson, music critic of the New York Sun, said that the secret of the 'wonderful playing of this or- chestra lay not merely in its being a "virtuoso orchestra," but an "orches- tra of vitruosi." The brass choir is composed of Germans, who are the best players of brass instruments in the world. The wood-wind choir is chief- ly of the French school, which excels in this department of orchestral mu- sic, and the strings are of Slavs, Ger- mans, Austrians and Americans, the best products of the great teachers of Brussels, Prague, Vienna, Berlin and Paris. J. Maynard, Jr., '05L, Dies at Knoxville James Maynard, Jr., '05L, prominent member of the Knoxville, Tenn., bar, died in Knoxville Monday following a short illness. Maynard took his A. B. degree at Princeton in 1908, following which he entered the Michigan Law school. He was a member of Phi Delta Phi fraternity.

' ' 1' I rV \ , / I Structure Forms Link Between State and Maynard Streets-First of Bind in Ann Arbor The Nickels Arcade is rapidly near- ing completion. The main building was started last March, but has been delayed by labor conditions and lack of material, however, the contractor expresses hope of its being entirely finished within six weeks. It is the first undertaking of the kind in Ann Arbor. The main entrance is situated on State street, forming a connecting link between State and Maynard. This entrance is entirely of white glazed terra cotta and is much more elabor- ate than the rest of the main passage- way. The latter has a dark tile floor- ing laid on a concrete foundation. The side walls are cream yellow brick, and the sills and a narrow moulded strip around the top are also of white ter- ra cotta. All the woodwork, with the exception of the doors and the interior finish, is white, while the rest is ma- hogany. The Maynard street entrance is of the same yellow brick as the interior of the passageway. The lighting, both natural and artificial, is very well taken care of. A huge skylight, run- ning the full length of the building, furnishes plenty of light in the day- time, while hanging fixtures of the transparent acorn type form a sub- stitute at night. There are twenty shops on the first floor and an equal number of well-appointed offices above them. "NOVELISTS NEED MORE RESPECT FOR THEIR ART"-PROF. H. CANBY "The novelist needs greater respect for his art," said Prof. H. E. Canby of Yale in his lecture Tuesday at West hall on "The Criticism of Prose Fic- tion." Prof. Canby stated that prose fiction had been looked down upon ever since the time of Chaucer, even by those who created it, and that the very name has always called forth apology in the realm of art. The speaker claimed that newspa- pers with their makeshift reviews which do not review, schools with in- structors who do not take the study seriously, and even the public which delights in the reading of the novel and short story, all conspire to fur- ther this foolish "hereditary preju- dice." Buy Fraternity house store supplies at the Delta. wed-eod Plans to form a committee which will file away technical information of all sorts, far convenient reference by students in the Engineering college, is being at present considered by mem- bers of the Engineering society. R. W. McNamee, '17E, has been appointed general chairman of the committee. The general committee will probably be divided into smaller sub-committees which will devote their attention to the different branches- of engineering. At the present time the engineering branch of the main library has a set of files in the nature of those proposed, but these are said to be too advanced for the average student. PROF. L. J. YOUNG TO OFFER TWO NEW COURSES IN FORESTRY Two new courses in forestry, open to all students, will be offered for the second semester by Prof. L. J. Young. Forestry 24, "Forestry for Teachers" is intended not only for teachers, but for all others desiring a general knowledge of forestry problems and the importance of forests in the life of a nation. This is a course of two lectures per week, coming Tuesday and Thursday at 10 o'clock. Forestry 24a, is, a field and labor. atory course and is intended for stu- dents other than forestryi students who wish some knowledge of the iden- tification of woods commonly used for lumber and who wish to be able to recognize our native trees as they appear in the forest or planted in the city. This course requires four hours of field work for two hours credit and will be given on Thursday, 1 to 5 o'clock. Both of these courses are non-tech- nical in treatment and have no prere- quisites. PROF. E. de AMARTONNE VIVIDLY DESCRIBES BATTLE GROUNDS Prof. Emmanuel de Martonne of the Sorbonne, Paris, gave an extremely vivid picture of parts of the country now overrun by the conflicting arm- ies in France, in a lecture on "The Battle Fields of France," yesterday afternoon in the auditorium of the new Science building. This afternoon, at 4 o'clock, Pro- fessor de Martonne will lecture again in the new, Science auditorium, the subject of his lecture bein "Rouman- ia." This lecture should be interest- ing because of the deplorable state in which Roumania finds herself today as a result of the great war. The Michigan Daily for service.
