Rotarians Meet With
The Ann Arbor Club
Had  Privilege Last Thursday  Noon
of Hearing Oscar H. Benson
Talk at Michigan Union.
Nearly all Rotarians went to Ann
Arbor last Thursday noon, in response to jan invitation to do so and
hear Oscar H. Benson, field representative of the Boy Scouts of
America, who /issued a challenge for
the best men in every community to
make themselves available for companionship with [boys and young men.
About 200 members, of i,the various organizations of Ann Arbor were
present to hear* JMr. Benson, who was
active in the organization of the 4-H
club movement and has devoted 25
years to studies of youth and delinquency.
Mr. Benson declared that every
criminal case £s the story of a neglected boy, drifting into bad company because the gang is better organized |to deceive boys than are the
finer men.
"The greatest sin of the age" is.
the organization ]af men away from
boys and of women away from girls,
Mr. Benson said, a strain on the
family unit that was never attempted by our pioneer forefathers.
He cited the $3,000,000 spent tc
bring the Dillinger jgang to justice
as (a.n answer to any argument that
extending a program to reach all
rural boys was too "expensive."
Mr. Benson described \ the Boy
Scouts as primarily a boy-man
movement rather than a boy movement, with | companionship between
boys and fine men far more important than program. He spoke of |the
troop committees Jas one of the biggest parts of the work, because they
enlist men to work with boys. {At
present there are 360,000 volunteer
men in the organization, (but there
should be one for every one of tlie
million boys between |12 and 18, Mr.
Benson declared.
From the age of 12 a boy jconstant-
ly looks to men, longs for their
companionship and imitates (the sort
of men who make themselves available to him, the speaker said, calling
a fine man friend the most priceless,
yet the .cheapest, thing that can be
given a boy.
Mr. Benson ;declared that although
men need |boys to keep them young
and no one can fail to have _a good
time who works with young people
and likes them, the best men are offering alibis for |their failure to offer
companionship. The underworld, on
the other hand, makes it its business
and ambition, to lower boys to its
level, he said.

AUCTION SALE-
The Don Cossack , Russian Male
Chorus, consisting of thirty-six expatriated officials of the former Imperial Russian army, under the leadership of the magnetic but diminutive Serge Jaroff, will give a concert tin the Choral Union Series,
Hill auditorium, Ann Arbor, Monday
evening, November 11, at 8:15
o'clock. \
This organization has won a forefront position for itself among great
singing bodies. Members of the Imperial army, which collapsed .during
the revolution, they found themselves prisoners in the south of
Russia. Without instruments or music
of any kind they attempted to pass
away the jweary hours by engaging
in singing! Under the stimulating
influence of their brilliant '■ leader
they managed to offer themselves as
a |sort of substitute -for an army
band, and made such Ian impression
upon their captors that they were
accorded  some  privileges.
After the war they could not, of
course, return to Russia. They
to find employment as
church singers in tone of the Balkan
states. Here their successes became pronounced and shortly thereafter they (were invited to give concerts in continental Europe.' Their
performances became musical events.
Later, when a )tour to America was
proposed, after considerable negotiations they were at last permitted to
make use of the "Nansen" passports
issued- by the League of Nations,
since they are "men [without a country." \
On their American tours they
travel by great buses, criss-crossing
the country from one end to the pth-
er. After the close of the formal
program in Hill auditorium it is expected that they will again perform
in certain musical dances, which has
characterized many of their j programs.

! membership shows,   according to  a
j report issued recently by Scout Ex-

Peek said.
"In (some communities an additional troop should he organized to
provide a ^Scouting opportunity for

(From Manchester Enterprise)
When Henry Goodyear, a prominent Sharon farmer who once owned
1,000 acres of land in Sharon and
Freedom, built jthe Goodyear block in
1867, this village was credited with
having the largest public hall, fitted
for a (theatre, of any place in the
state outside of the larger cities.
Traveling shows of all sorts, including many | notable theatrical companies, sought the patronage of Man-*
Chester citizens. The fact that Manchester was located at the crossing
of two railroads brought us many of
the big troupes which played towns
like Detroit,' Grand Rapids. Jackson,
Adrian, Ann Arbor, etc. Manchester
had some excellent talent residing
here ahd Goodyear hall was lwell
patronized. Manchester supported
a lecture course for years and piany
noted actors and singers appeared
on our stage, among them Henry
Ward Beecher, Susan B. Anthony
and others of national reputation,
and people pame from Chelsea, Tecumseh, Saline and other towns to
hear them. <3»
We recall one of the largest minstrel .'shows from New York came and
at noon that day they paraded and
played on our streets. After the
parade jthe proprietor came with the
agent to The Enterprise office to pay
for an advertisement and the proprietor, with an oath, said to his
agent, "What induced you to give a
performance in a small town like
this?" We ventured to say that
Manchester was not a small town
when a show like his came here.
"Bah," he said, "you pay the* drayman for bringing the baggage to the
hall, and you may have the rest"
