Howwever theWashington Prom will begin prompt¬ly at 9 and terminate at 2,” said FrankHardesty last night.The "no flowers” regulation will bestrictly enforced, as previously an-nounc'»d by Prom leaders.

Reynolds Club to ReviveLadies’ NightCustomMen, don’t forget that Friday nightsat the Reynolds club are ladies’ nights.On these occasions women will bepermitted to take advantage of theclub’s billiards and pool tables, itsbowling alleys, its library, and its co¬pious .selection of newspapers andmagazines. The women’s privilegesare in the by-laws of the club butfew of the members apparently knowof them.In years past Reynolds clubberstook advantage of the woman clausein their constitution and streams ofwomen were seen filtering into themen’s domain on Friday nights.Mixed doubles on the bowling alleyswere common sights in previous days.Because men often visit Ida Noyeshall, women of the campus see noreason for not being permitted in themen’s club Friday nights.JUNIOR-SENIOR COLLEGETANK MEET TODAY AT 4Senior?

T.Reingold, Secretary of the Zionistclub, expressed his thanks for thesympathy and support tendered himby that organization.The letter was in answer to a reso¬lution passed by the local Zionist clubprotesting again.st the action takenagainst Prof. Einstein by German pro¬fessors and students as a member ofthe Jewi.sh race. 'The action causedhim to tender his resignation to theUniversity of Berlin,The letter, as translated, follows:"Dear Sir;“Your expression of sympathy hasgiven me genuine pleasure. I tendermv heartiest thanks.“The attacks directed against mehere were, however, no tas virulentas they may have appeared fromabroad. The event has, moreover,gained me more of good-will on thepart of colleagues and others than ithas enmity. It is also to be consid¬ered that the severe political and in¬dustrial situation which the Germansare facing today entitles them to someforbearance.“Respectfully,“A.

ORGANIZATION SPACE INANNUALThe Business Department of theCap and Gown announcea that any or¬ganization which has not contractedor paid for their space in the Cap andGown should do so before the end ofthis week, as that will mark the lastchance for any organization to re¬serve a place in the hook.Interclass Basketball .Scores Prof. Albert A. Michelson, of thePhysics department, whose recentmeasurement of the star Betelgeusecreated a furor in the scientific world,leaves today for a three months lec¬ture course a.s exchange profe.ssor inthe University of Paris. He will re¬turn to the United States about themiddle of summer, stopping on hisway to spend some time lecturingabout his instrument at English uni¬versities.The measurement of the diameteiof stars was thought impossible priorto Prof. Michelson’s successful at¬tempt, Betelgeuse, which was mea¬sured by the “interferometer” lastsummer at the Carnegie solar obser¬vatory at Pasadena has now beenshown to be of dimension.s that stag¬ger the imagination. It has a diam¬eter of 260,00,000 miles, while the dis¬tance of the sun from the earth isonly 90,000,000 miles. That is to say,if Betelgeuse were a hollow globe itwould be large enough to hold the sunwith three planets. Mercury, Venus,and the Earth revolving in their reg¬ular orbits. It would take 27,000,000bodies as large as the sun to fill upa sphere the size of Betelgeuse.Invented Years AgoProf. Michelson’s instalment, theinterferqlmeter which was used toperform this wonderful feat of mea-urement, was invented by him a num¬ber of years ago, and has in manyways added to our fund of scientificknowledge. In 1886 the wave lengthof light was mea.sured for the Frenchgovernment to be used as the basisfor the metric system, and the re.sultsobtained were correct to one ten mil¬lionth of an inch.For this work Prof. Michelson laterreceived the Nobel prize. Fifteenyears ago in co-operation with Prof.Morley, the interferometer was usedto determine the movement of tiieearth in the ether with results whichthrew the scientific world into con¬fusion and were not explained untilthe Einstein theory was put forth. TheMichelson-Morley experiment is con¬sidered to be the forerunner of theEinstein theory. The latest use towhich the in.strument has been puthas been the measurement of the tidalpull of the sun and moon. This work,done in co-operation with the geologydepartment of the University, hasyielded valuable data.Causes Great ExcitementThe remarkable instrument whichis responsible for the greatest excite¬ment among scientists since Einsteinput forth his famous theory is basedin principle upon a measurement ofangles of inconceivable minuteness.In the work at Pasadena last summer(Continued on Paqe 4)Cap and Gown Wants Snaps Senior 13, Freshmen 7..Sophomores 10, Juniors 7.The Cap and Gown staff, in lookingover its enormous pile of snap.shots,finds that many of them are not of ahigh enough standard to go into theyear book and con.sequently they canmake use of a few more good ones.Editor Flint announces that they willhave to be in before the end of theweek, however.

You are wasting paper,Chanticleer. Y'ou are helping keepup the price of paper pulp. You maybe keeping the laboring men’s bible,the daily press, out of his hands.You are making a mistake in try¬ing to mix socialistic propaganda witha student activity.Far be it from The Daily Maroon todiscourage radical thought on thecampus. But dear Chanticleer, don’tlisten too hard to the Bolsheviki ofthe Pacific coast, if you get out an¬other issue. Remember you are a stu¬dent activity. Remember the papershortage. Remember that many stu¬dents are trustingly handing youtwenty cents per fortnight. Remem¬ber.The ticket chairman of the Wash¬ington Prom announced that onlythose who registered before a certaintime would be able to get tickets.More than one hundred students havefound out to their sorrow that the an¬nouncement meant business. Yester¬day it was announced that the Promwill begin on time.These Spring days bring forcibly toour minds the many charming argu¬ments for co-education which aboundon our campus. These are the dayswhen galoshes retire and “trick” silk“socks” reign supreme. The femin¬inity of our social lawn is coming outof hibernation.

MR. NORWORTH AGAINReview of “My Lady Friends,”at the Central TheatreBy J. V. S.A simple tale for the tired businessman is Jack Norworth’s new vehicle,“My Lady Friends,” on view last weekand, henceforth at the Central Thea¬tre. In it a benevolent Bible manu¬facturer spreads sunshine among themembers of the fair sex by means ofnumerous dollars; and his wife, ob¬jecting, is converted to the easy phi¬losophy of the generous spender ofmoney. She is a very simple, highlyincredible woman, who.se husband hasmade three quarters of a million outof Bibles (wherefore Miss Nagle, an¬other lady implicated, says, “I mustread that book”) and who refuses toparticipate in the spending of the for¬tune. The play is written to demon¬strate her conversion. That is, to allintents and purposes.The deep, dark motive underlying itall, however, is that not unusual one—to show off the star. Waiving allconsiderations of plausibility, verisim¬ilitude, and such like, we must admitthat it serves the purpose. Mr. Nor-worth is on the stage practically allof the time, and his good points areon parade most of the time. Of thosegood points he has a great many—notably an easy, genial, effortlesstechnique, a quantity of charm, anda good sense of comedy. He singsonly one thing—in the second act andat intervals thereafter—an aria called“T want to spread a little sunshine.”He does it all well, in a smooth andpersonable way; and for that reasonamong others it is the conviction ofthis report that "My Lady Friends”will be more prosperous than the or¬dinary. The audience on the thirdnight was made up of tired businessmen, their wiv'es, other ladies, risingyoung bond salesmen, and girls in eve¬ning dress. Such an audience delightsin broad, unsubtle, easy comedy, withlines like “T didn’t buy her an automo-bMe—jt was a Buick,” and with comichousemaids who enter at frequent tn-terv'als, nose in air, announcing to alland sundry, “T quit.” Such an audi¬ence, dumb though it may be wherethe Higher Synthesis is concerned, isthe audience which makes T.oop suc¬cesses. Their absence from any showwin kill it. Witness “Beyond theHorizon,” where a bond salesman oran evening dress was an unviewedphenomenon. It went its wav sorrow-inrr in two short weeks—the be.st thingof this or many seasons.Rut this is neither here nor there.The point to all this is that “My LadyFriends” is an agreeable way to spenda stupid, comfortable, good-humoredevening. Miss Jessie Nagle is a talland good looking actress who wears Score Club EngineersDance for SophomoresScoix* club will give a dance formembers of the Sophomore class Sat¬urday at 9 in the Reynolds club. Be¬cause of the limited space it will benecessary to secure bids from HenryHardy, who will be in the Daily Ma¬roon office tomorrow from 11 to 12to give them out. One person of eachcouple must be a Sophomore and theholder of a class ticket for the Winterquarter. The bids are limited and thecommittee has advised those who wantthem to be on hand early.To avoid competition with the bas¬ketball game against Ohio State ithas been decided to begin the danceat 9. Music will be furnished by twoorchestras, if the present plans of thecommittee carry through, and thedancing will be continuous from 9 to12. There is a possibility that theaffair may take the form of an “OldClothes” party. Final announcementconcerning this will be made in TheDaily Maroon tomorrow or Friday.very good clothes and does most ofthe “support” for Mr. Norworth; thatis, except Miss Wilda Moore, the I-guess-she-must-be leading lady. Thevery carnal-looking young things whoare Mr. Norworth’s accomplices inspreading a litle sunshine are theMisses Virginia Vernon, Clara Ver-dera, Margaret Bird and Helen Carew.Their gowns are also good. And, allin all, they get along. One would notgo from San P’rancisco to New Yorkto see it, but on the other hand it isless stupid than “Irene.” Moreover,as we may have remarked before, Mr.Norw'orth is cheap at three dollars athrow.Ask for the^TOM-LogaW•HrpoRrG)H0EThe Smart Looking, Popular ShoeCAMPUS..dCLASS ROOMIdeal, All Round College ShoeSame High Quality as theTOM LOGAN GOLF SHOEIf your dealer cannot supply youwrite us for catalog and pricesTHOMAS H.

TheUndergraduate Council, in its unceas¬ing: campaig:n to improve the spiritand promote the prowess of Chicagoathletics, urges a large representa¬tion from the campus. In no smallmeasure. Maroon athletes of the fu¬ture will be drawn from these prepstars, but the smallness or largenessof this number will depend upon thereception which is accorded, and theinterest taken in these trackmen. Fol¬lowing the meet Saturday morrpng,which begins at 9:30, an all-star teamwill be selected on the basis of per¬formances during the series, and thesemen will be the g:uests of the campusfor the afternoon and evening. Lunch¬eon will be served them at fraternityhouses, and a banquet to which every¬one is invited will be held for themin Hutchinson in the evening. Toconclude the day, they will be guestsat the Chicago-Ohio basketball game,between the halves of which medaland cup awards for the track meetswill be made.IN recent “appreciation” of CoachStagg, the Daily Journal made the fol¬lowing statement: “Stagg soundedthe note which the college athleticworld has been in need of for years.Translated from polite verbiage,Stagg meant—‘If Chicago loses athousand games, it will not descendto the practice of hiring profession¬als to play on its teams.’ Fast andwest the college athletic situation isfacing the same situation. We mustchoose between pure amateurism orefforts on the part of colleges or theirsupporters to accumulate winningteams.”ON the face of things the two par¬agraphs above are diametrically op¬posed. One of them is wrong in itsattitude—or in its implication. Oneof them contans a contradiction with¬in itself. In our vocabulary “bre”and “accumulate” have differentmeanings One of the paragraphs,we believe, presents a misinterpreta¬tion of Coach Stagg’s attitude withregards to athletics. If it is unethicalto attract men of superior ability insports to the University by extendingour friendship and by manife.sting ourinterest in the university which theyare to attend, then the attitude of thefirst paragraph, and therefore of theI^ndergraduate Council, and finally ofthe l^niversity, is wrong.BFCAUSF we argue the matter ofathletics “con,” is it necessary thatwe must likewise take it up “pro.”NORTHWESTERN will engageChicago in Bartlett natatorium Fri¬day night in the feature dual meetof the season, not only for Chicagobut throughout the Big Ten. TheChampionship lies between these twoteams. The victor of Friday’s en¬gagement will not necessarily be the1921 title holder, but it will be an“indication,” as sportsmen are proneto say. There is not a record not indanger of being broken, with the ex¬ception of the plunge—and “Tiny”Cordon is cutting down on that.We were intending to brave Provi¬dence by reviewing the basketball sit¬uation-hut we’ll content ourselvesmerely by indicating the direction ofthe wind.

The two beams of light,then arrived which had travelled ex¬actly the same distance, by slightlydifferent paths reinforced each otherat a certain point, but at a short dis¬tance from that point on either side,a point can be found where the lightfrom one slit arrives a trifle soonerthan from the other, so that thewaves are “out of step” and inter¬fere with each other, producing a darkband,Rays Double .AgainFarther out the doubling of therays again takes place and a band ofbright light is produced; still furtherwe have a dark band and the sequenceis repeated so that the neighborhoodof the image is occupied by a seriesof fine bright and dark bands. Thesebands are extremely narrow and canbe adjusted to each other by manip¬ulation of the slits, and by a studyof their comparative sizes, the anglessubtended by the .star, and conse¬quently its diameter can be deter¬mined.CLASSIFIED ADSLOST—Gold ring with large greenjade stone.
