But since the remainder of thebook is devoted to undergraduate activities, it is only fitting thai this fore­word be a summary of the trends which cannot be seen by examination of theexperiences peculiar to this year.Along with the recent renovations in educational plans and the changesnecessitated by a considerable lessening of student budgets, student interests,and therefore student activities, are still undergoing a period of difficultreadjustment. No longer do campus politics determine undergraduate leaders,and no longer do students vie with each other for jobs only to be double­crossed into oblivion.Except in athletics where success is determined by intercollegiate competition,almost any good man may, by sticking to his activity, rise to the top in hissenior year. There are no large financial profits to be gained, and at best.activitystudents can claim practical experience and contacts instead of the educationthat could have been won by having spent their time in the libraries.With the possible exception of fraternities, however, activities have not suf­fered. Seven individuals in athletics have gained national reputation. TheDaily Maroon will be remembered by its foreign news and editorial exper­iments; the Dramatic Association by the scope of its plays produced; the MusicSociety by its successful operas; Blackfriars by the quality of its music andsinqinq. and the Cap and Gown by ..

BUR'l'ONUi")VERS)'fY YE�\RWH,\T'S in a name?The University of Chicago is more than a nameto intellectual centers of the world, to theworld's scientists and scholars. It is more than a nameto natives of Egypt's Nile and the nomads of Persia'splateau where the past, unearthed, reveals its wisdomand its errors to the present. It is more than a nameeven to the natives of the American provinces whosesweet nothings range from the good Elizabeth Dilling'sdictum: "That damn' filthy, dirty, communist place oughtto he closed up !"* to Uncle Charlie Walgreen's sonor­ous judgment: "The University of Chicago is the great­est university in the United States !""**Behind the name, University of Chicago, lie forty-fouryears of honest pursuit of truth. The pursuit has oc­casionally been confused; it has sometimes been in er­ror; there has been only recently some interest in learn­ing how to communicate the truth intelligibly. Adebilitating skepticism since the; war has raised thequestion whether any truth can be found, and, if found,can be worth while. This skepticism found expressionin the reluctance of researchers in certain quarters ofthe University to go beyond the mere gathering of data,because a fact could be noted and dated and be forevertrue as of that date. This procedure had many advan­tages: it was honest, as far as it went; it was easy; itwas the truth-for an instant of time anyhow. But it re­mained for President Robert M. Hutchins to demon­strate that the procedure was intellectually reprehensi­ble. It exercised the moral virtue of industry butconsidered the intellectual virtues of analysis and syn­thesis mere vanity. It left facts, information, data,unrelated to ideas, principles, concepts. Relations be­tween ideas were never stated, even with the care theyalways should be stated. Propositions were intelligibleand true only when dated. The whole skeptical tendencywas crippling to universities. They were afraid of thetruth, afraid there was no truth, afraid that if therewere, it must be so partial as not to be worth stating.This situation is almost as bad as though universitieswere afraid to communicate what they know to betrue. Emergence from skepticism has just begun andan intellectual history of this year, 1935-36 at theUniversity will be '" history of a segment of thatemergence.* Senate Investigation Hearing No.3, at Hotel LaSalle,May 1935.** Address to Union League Club, May, 1935.WfJOIJCARVING BJ' BILL KING----------------------·---21What's In a Year?UNTIl, 1932 the University record published ayearly history of the University. �ince it hasbeen discontinued, there has been no history of theUniversity except in the isolated files of many offices.The Cap and Gown is pleased this year to write a com­prehensive history of the year in terms of the aims ofthe University in education and research.This year began for the University in an atmos­phere of suspicion of everything foreign to it. Studentsand faculty felt certain the attacks from outside wouldhardly cease so soon. Many were very badly con­cealing a hope for a little more excitement; the facultyenjoyed absolute unity against the chauvinism whichwould forbid them to operate; students were preparedto have a wonderful time telling what they think ofthose who want to tell them what is safe for themto learn.No promises.ON October 4, more than 500 members of the fac­ulty met for their homecoming dinner in theHutchinson Commons. President Hutchins, pre­siding, said ominously: "Last year at this time Ipromised you a year of peace' and relaxation. Every­thing proceeded placidly enough until the middle ofApril-and then look what happened. So this year Iam making no promises. . . ",Many new faculty members were introduced andthree newly appointed administrative officers-WIlliamH. Taliaferro, Dean of the Division of BiologicalScience; Arthur C. Bachmeyer, Director of UniversityClinics; and Richard P. McKeon, Dean of the Divisionof Humanitlea+-gave addresses on subjects upon whicheach was peculiarly qualified to speak.Emerson and TermitesIN the audience was Dr. Alfred E. Emer­son who had just returned from thePanama Canal Zone with his familywhere he had spent the summer investigatingthe amazing social organization and coopera­tive existence of some ,60 species of ter­mite insects. It is submitted as a typicalpiece of research in the natural sciences.A colony of termites has a king and queenwith two or three million progeny consistingof workers and soldiers. The workers buildthe nests and procure food, while the soldiersdefend the colony against their traditionalenemies, the ants. These facts have longbeen known, but Dr. Emerson had much toadd to this information.Alfred Emerson We observed four general kinds ofsoldiers among the many species of ter­mites," Dr. Emerson said. "The differencelies in the function of the large heads of the soldiers One maims or kills the enemy by bitingwith '" larg� pair of jaws. Another is equipped withsnappers that can kill an ant at one stroke. The mostdeadly fighter, however, exudes a sticky substance whichdisables and often kills the> attackers. A fourth kind,which has not been fully investigated, gives' out a kindof poison gas that is deadly for other insects."Zoologists have not yet been able to explain the originof the king and queen, but they now know why onlyone of each exists in a single colony."When a king is removed from a colony, a 'substitute'king' develops from one of the 'nymphs' which are theyounger progeny not yet g'rown into soldiers or work­ers," said Dr, Emerson, "but only one king developsbecause he then proceeds to secrete a substance thatinhibits the growth of any other potential kings. Thesame phenomena is observed in the queens. Some ex­ceptions to this rule exist, but they would hike manyparagraphs to explain.. ""Unlike man, termites never' attack each other undernatural conditions or interfere in any way with thefunctions of other members of the species. They conducta perfectly cooperative society performing the functionsof food-getting, nest-building, breeding, and defensewithout intramural conflict, but often with a lack ofefficiency which indicates to us that their cooperativeaction is not intelligent, but instinctive," said Dr.Emerson.Like man, however, the termites domesticate animals-that is to say, other insects such as beetles and flies,called "termitophiles.""When we transplanted these termitophiles to a colonyof another species, they were immediately killed, al­though they resembled very closely the domesticatedinsects of the foreign species," said Dr. Emerson.In a series of experiments conducted to observe thefighting capacities of the termite soldiers, Dr. Emersonrelated: "I found one termite soldier that was able torepel successfully 72 ants. The evidence of more thana thousand experiments shows that the termite soldierscan always defend their colony if not too hopelessly out­nu�bered by the ants. The workers, unprotected, areeasily overwhelmed, However, if the ants set out tocapture a colony, they can always succeed in the endwith tremendous sacrifice of their own fighters."The results of Dr. Emerson's six months of researcha�e ex:pected. to contribute to the field of ecology in thebiological sciences. Dr. Emerson has added 20 speciesof termites to a list of 40 which were known to live inthe Panama region. In addition a countless number ofexperiments were conducted which will contribute toscientific knowledge about the regimented, cooperativelife of insects.Van Biesbroeck, and a new cometANOTHER member of the audience at the FacultyHomecoming Dinner was Dr. George Van Bies­broeck, Professor of Astronomy. He had recentlydiscovered a new comet through the powerful YerkesObservatory telescope. The comet is located in thesouthern skies in the Saggitarius Constellation and isinvisible to the naked eye. It was promptly named CometVan Biesbroeck and even more promptly two observa­tions were made about Comet Van Biesbroeck: (1) Itwas approaching the sun and it continued to do so untilDecember 9 when it began to swing away, and (2) itschief peculiarity was that its tail was not away fromthe sun, as is normal, but swings at a ninety degreeangle from a line drawn between the sun and the comet.22--------------------------------------HaroldGosnellGosnell-"Negro Politicians"ALSO in the audience was Harold F. Gosnell, Asso­ciate Professors of Political Science, who cappedfive years of work when his book, "Negro Politi­cians" was published during the summer. It is the storyof the political struggles of a minority group is an Amer­ican metropolitan community. Dr. Gosnell concludes thatpolitical organization has resulted in no spectaculargains for the race, but the concrete gains have been aboutas great as those of other minority groups, and thestatus of Negroes, might have been worse had they notbeen organized. The book is a fascinating story ofsk�llduggery, conflict, and "human interest" episodeswhich should appeal to the layman. The book raises thequestion of what is political science. It does not pre­tend to present an analysis by which all political minori­ties can be understood. It should be a valuable sourcefor historians who want to know how Negroes havefared in Chicago. It is particular, not universal. It willnot aid political scientists who are looking for principlesthat will explain the kind -of political behavior it de­scribes. The volume won for its author the John Anis­field Award of $1,000 for the best book of the year onrace relations.Bank robbery-DeuelLAID up in the hospital instead of being just anothermember of the audience at the faculty banquetwas Dr. Thorne Deuel, Research Associate inAnthropology. He made news three times during themonth of October. He had headed a party during thesum�cr which explored the archaeologically importantKincaid Mountains near Metropolis, Illinois where ahouse, pa�tially consumed by fire hundreds of 'years ago,revealed Important archaeological artifacts concerningthe structure and materials of the homes of ancientAmerican Indians.D.r. Deuel then returned to the University with thesefindmgs and prepared to leave again, this time forTexas, on a one-man photographical expedition which, asa part of a collection of similar material throughoutthe Mississippi valley, is expected to enable students tostudy the remains of ancient Indian cultures withoutactually visiting the country. This expedition of Dr.Deuel, then, was to be as much for education as forresearch.As a part of the preparations Dr. Deuel entered theUniversity State Bank early one bright Monday morning----------------23 to draw out some money. As he stood near the teller'swindow, two amateur bandits fortified by five otherswho were waiting outside in two automobiles entered thebank and snarled, "This is a stick-up."A young woman behind the counter promptly steppedon the tear-gas pedal; the bandits became panicky.Deuel leaped behind a marble pillar. Unfortunately, ashe Iater related, he forgot to pull in his ankle. In theshooting that followed Dr" Deuel caught a ricochettedbullet in that ankle, and three other persons werewounded in the affray, tWQ of them badly. This bloodand thunder made it news again when Dr. Deuel, severalweeks later departed for Texas none the worse for theincident except that careful Billings Hospital had de­prived him of a week's time. He will return to theUniversity this .Tune.Art Institute-lectures-McLaughlinFE\V students know that members of the Univer­sity faculty give lecture series at the Art Insti­tute. Week-day evenings at the. Institute are rarewhen some member of the faculty is not addressing anearnest group of listeners in Fullerton Hall at 6:45P. M.Lectures scheduled last faU were in the fields ofpolitics, law, art, and anthropology. As if to showthat the University as a hotbed of radicalism was stillnot without tinges of Republicanism, five lectures on"Our Constitution" were delivered by Andrew C. Me­Laughlin, Professor-Emeritus of American History, anda far more noted authority on the Constitution than�he Honorable James M. Beck, so extensively quotedm the press. The five lectures were "The ConstitutionalSignificance of the American Revolution," "The Originand Nature of the American Constitutional System""The Courts and Their Duties under the Constitution;'"The Adaptation of Law to Changing Social Conditions'"and "The Development of the Presidency". 'Smith ... Boulton ... StarkCONCURRENTLY T. V. Smith, Professor of Philo­sophr and �tate Se?ator from the Fifth District,considered in a series of five lectures the ethicalfoundations of individualism, liberalism fascism com­munism, and Americanism. A series of 'five lectu'res on"African Music: A Pursuit of Rhythm" was given by�rs. Laura .C. Boulton, trained musician and anthropolo­gist, fea�urmg. actual melodi�s in sound recording andactual tribal Iife of the African savages in movie film.S�e managed to establish many connections between thiskind of primitive music and American jazz. HaroldStark gave the longest series, ten lectures on "Artand Life in AI_TIerica." Five members of the University'sSchool of Busmess followed T. V. Smith's lectures witha series on "The Relationship between Government andBusiness."PHOTO BY JOHN ROBERTSDetective storiesTHE hobbies of the fac­ulty at the Universityhave long been intel­lectually justified. The greatMichelson, it is said, was ashark in pool and billiardsfor the mathematical andgeom�trical excitement ofthe games. Many membersof the faculty openly admit­ted they read detectivestories for the sheer pleas­ure in beating the authorout of his surprise at theEdgar J. Goodspeed end of the puzzles he con-tives. President Robert M.Hutchins admits his readinguf detective stories is j ust another vice-like cigarettes,since he is always borrowing the book from someone.But it took Professor Edgar J. Goodspeed, translatorof the New Testament into Modern English to come outwith a mystery novel under his own name, entitled"The Curse of the Colophon." It involved the adven­tures of a professor who seeks to find the meaning ofa mysterious inscription at the end of an ancient manu­script, the "Colophon", upon which lies ,1 curse.William Vaughn Moody LecturesON Octoher 17, a phase of the University traditionwas revealed in all its richness, when three emi­nent members of the department of English com­memorated the twenty-fifth anniversary of the deathof 'Villiam Vaughn Moody, poet, painter, dramatistmember of the faculty from 1895 to 1903.Ferdinand Schevil, Professor Modern History andintimate friend of Moody, spoke on "William VaughnMoody: The Man." John M. Manley, Professor-Emeri­tus of English, writer of the Introduction to Moody's"Collected Poems and Plays," and outstanding authorityon Chaucer, spoke on "William Vaughn Moody: TheSchola r. " Howard Mumford Jones, Professor of Eng­lish at the University of Michigan, and graduate of theUniversity, spoke on "William Vaughn Moodv: ThePoet." Percy H. Boynton, Professor of English pre­sided.Rarely has so penetrating analysis of a man of geniusbeen presented. None of the men who spoke felt strict­lyconfined to the topics, "The Man", "The Scholar", and"The Poet." It was thoroughly established that Moodywas a man of genius, a conscientious teacher andscholar, a poet of tremendous influence in Americanliterature,William Vaughn Moody was a brilliant student andcreative artist, even while attending Harvard fromwhich he graduated at an early age. He spent most ofhis short life (he was only eU years old when he died)in long and extended travel, usually preferring theMediterranean lands and California. Despite his travel­ing abroad, his poetry was distinctly American in back­ground and subject-matter, During his eight years ofteaching at the University, he was an inspiration tostudents and fellow-faculty members to such an extentthat che intellectual and aesthetic impulse which he gavein those years has not yet left them. Two permanentmonuments to his memory exist at the University: TheWilliam Vaughn Moody Lecture Foundation, financedby anonymous donors, which regularly brings to thecampus prominent contributors to the arts, literatureand science of the world; and the William Vaughn MoodyLibrary of American Literature. James Henry BreastedO:SE of those tragedies whi�h mark the en? of anepoch struck the campus In December. \ rgorousJ ames Henry Breasted, world-famous orientalistand historian, creator and director of the University'sOriental Institute, was stricken and died December :2of streptoccocus infection soon after he was taken f'rrnuthe boat in New York after a summer sojourn in Italyand the Near East.Colleagues expressed their shock at his sudden pass­ing and their admiration of his scholarly achievementswhen the news reached them. The museum of the Orien­tal Institute was closed for the day and the University'sflag was lowered to half-staff."Dr. Breasted was probably the most famous scholaron our faculty," said Vice-President Woodward. "Inaddition to his remarkable achievements in discoveryand research, he was a great organizer and executive,a brilliant lecturer, and a man of extraordinary per­sonal charm. His illuminating books on the early historyof civilization are read not only by scholars but byintelligent laymen all over the world."Our loss is irreparable. In the Oriental Instituteof the University of Chicago, which Dr. Breasted estab­lished and developed to its present high standing, heleaves an enduring monument,"At his own request Dr. Breasted's remains were cre­mated. There were no funeral services, but plans for amemorial service to be held later at the University weremade, of which we shall make mention later in this his­tory. Besides Mrs. Breasted and his son, CharlesBreasted, Dr. Breasted leaves a younger son, JamesHenry Breasted, .Ir., now studying oriental history atQueen's College, Oxford, and a daughter, Astrid. Thelatter had remained in the Near East but immediatelystarted for America on hearing of her father's death.The first Mrs. Breasted, the former Frances Hart, whomhe married in Berlin in 1894, died July 24, 1934. OnJune 8, 1935, Dr. Breasted married his first wife's sister,Mrs. Imogene Hart Richmond and their trip to theNear East was in part a wedding trip.Dr. A. T. Olmstead, long-time colleague of Dr.Breasted, who succeeded to the chair of Oriental Lan­guages from which Dr. Breasted retired two years ago,to devote his time to the administrative work of theInstitute, said:';J ames Henry Breasted was the first American pro­fessional historian of the ancient Near East; before hisdeath the world recognized him as its foremost historian.'When his "History of Egypt" was published in 1905,ancient historyitself was hare­I y recognizedby professionalhistorians, theOr i e n twasabandoned t 0the philologistand the theolo­gian. ProfessorBreasted a I ,.m 0 s t single­handed mad ethe Orient tru­ly histor ial withhis vivid pic­tures of the'living pas t.' Jame8 Breasted24---------------------His professional colleagues recognized this by honor­ing him with the presidency of the American HistorialAssociation."Unlike so many of hi, colleagues, Professor Breastedbelieved that research was useless unless presented tothe public in an attractive form. His "Ancient Times,"the text-book in ancient history of the last generation,brought to hundreds of thousands of youthful mindsthe conviction that the ancient world was as living asthe present. His "Conquest of Civilization" broughtthis 'New Orient' to more mature but equally enthu­siastic readers. It is the simple truth that the over­whelming inerest in the ancient Near East so manifesttoday in America is due primarily to the influence ofProfessor Breasted."At the height of his, reputation and in the full ma­turity of his powers, he turned from the personal re­search which was to him the very breath of life to pro­vide for the future of his beloved studies. After re­peated disappointments when his projects seemed onthe verge of fulfillment, at last, through the generosityof Mr. John D. Rockefeller, Jr., he founded the OrientalInstitute at the University of Chicago. In this greatlaboratory of history, as he rightly called it, he collectedthe largest group of scholars dedicated to these studiesin the world, and set them, young and old, the commontask of presenting a fuller, more authentic, and moreliving picture of that fascinating past. The publishedworks which have made his great reputation will liveafter him, but his greatest contribution to the futurewill be the books of those young men trained at theOriental Institute for whose inspiration ProfessorBreasted laid aside his own research.Pioneering in his field, a vivid and prolific writer, Dr.Breasted's ambition to recover for modern civilizationthe story of man's rise from pre-historical savagery wasgiven great impetus with the establishment of the Ori­ental Institute as a research organization at the Uni­versity in 1919. Largely through the generosity of JohnD. Rockefeller, Jr., the expedition work was put on apermanent basis through large gifts in 1928. In 1931,the new $1,500,000 Institute building on the corner ofUniverslty avenue and 58th street was opened.This latter event was in the nature of a personal tri­umph for Dr. Breasted, who almost singlehanded hadorganized in a young middle-western city the greatestconcerted effort ever made to unearth the lost chaptersin the history of biblical and pre-biblical times. Dr.Breasted's Chicago offices served as headquarters fortwelve expeditions, employed more than 100 staff work­ers and several thousand native diggers who are em­ployed at strategic sites around the western basin of theMediterranean, regarded as the cradle of civilization.Dr. Breasted's first "expedition" to Egypt, made in 1899,was done on a budget of $500, with equipment consistingof a camera and a donkey. The annual budget of theInstitute is now $700,000, and its workers utilize all thedevices of modern science in their work.The National Labor Relations ActATTENTION of the business and labor world wasdirected to "The National Labor Relations Act,"a study by William H. Spencer, Dean of theSchool of Business, which was published in Novemberby the' University Press.While the National Labor Relations Act (WagnerBill) contains "some ill-advised provisions" and is sub- ject to criticis�because of cer-tain"serious 0 m m i s­sions," it is on thewhole a sou n dpiece of legislation,Dean Spencer says.He was formerchairman of theChicago RegionalLabor Board, suc­cessor in this posi­tion of PresidentRobert M. Hutch­ins, until the NRAwas ruled out bythe Supreme Court.By the time theCap and Gown isout, the Court willhave ruled on theW agner Bill, sothe words here ofa scholar will getthe acid test. William Spencer"The Act is not as bad as employers seem to thinkit is," Dean Spencer comments, "and it cert?,inl.v:. is nota panacea as organized labor pretends to believe."The statute as a whole is vulnerable to constitutionalattack on several grounds. The Supreme Court ma�" de­clare that one or more of the 'unfair labor practices'are unconstitutional on the ground that they are un­justifiable intereference with freedom of contract, guar­anteed by the Fifth Amendment. The Court may alsodecide that certain other sections offend against the dueprocess of law clause because they do not provide foradequate judicial review of the Board's decisions andactivities in connection with the selection and deslgpa­tion of representatives for purposes of collective bar­gaining."Although it is unlikely that the Court will declarethe whole law unconstitutional on the ground that itinvades the sphere of state control over local affairs', itis possible that the Court may so far limit the applica­tion of the law as practically to nullify it."There is little doubt but that in the immediate futurethe Labor Board will proceed with great caution in theassertion of its jurisdiction and powers. There is littledoubt that employers will resort to all manner of legaldevices and strategy to tie the hands of the Board untilthe Supreme Court has had opportunity to pass judg­ment on the constitutionality of the Act."Finally, it is somewhat premature to assume that wehave come to the end of a competitive regime, that weare permanently committed to a regime of economicplanning through theoretically large, well-balanced pres­sure groups, that, sinee employers are typically well­organized labor groups must be encouraged to organize,and that a return to competition is unthinkable. In­consistency is scented, if not demonstrated, when thePresident at the same time advocates higher taxes as ameans of decentralizing large industrial units and signsthe Labor Act which will undoubtedly tend to ·the solidi­fication of workers into large economic pressure groups."The New Labor Board set up under the Wagner Billis moving slowly prior to constitutional tests in thecourts. It has only half a dozen cases or so underconsideration, while the old board had 300 during a cor­responding period of time," said Mr. Spencer in a lateraddress at Fullerton Hall, Art Institute, speaking on"The Wagner Bill and Collective Bargaining."-------------------------------26Crane . . . EnglishS HORTL Y before President and Mrs. Hutchinsleft for a visit to the Hawaiian Islands for themonth November 16 to December 21, the Presi­dent announced the appointment of Ronald S. Crane,Professor of English, as chairman of the department ofEnglish at the University. Since the death last sum­mer of Charles R. Baskervill, former chairman of thedepartment, Robert Morss Lovett had been acting chair­man. This, incidentally was about as far as the Uni­versity ever went toward defiance of the state Legisla­tive committee which had asked the dismissal of Pro­fessor Lovett.Professor Crane is a graduate of the University ofMichigan and holds his doctor's degree from the Uni­versity of Pennsylvania. From 1911 to 1924 he ad­vanced from instructor to assistant professor to as­sociate professor of English at Northwestern University.Coming to the University of Chicago as an associateprofessor in 1924, he was made full professor in 1925.Professor Crane's chief research interest lies in theEnglish essay and he has edited two volumes entitled"The English Familiar Essay," 1916, and "New Essaysby Oliver Goldsmith," 1927. In connection with thelatter work, Dr. Crane discovered that Goldsmith, be­fore he wrote his famous "Deserted Village," had writ­ten it as an essay. Since 1930, Professor Crane hasbeen editor of the learned journal, "Modern Philology."Dr. Crane has long been one of the few men in thedepartment of English whose classes have had somebasis in intellectual and aesthetic analysis. This meansthat absorbing questions like, "When was the 'DesertedVillage' written"? are abandoned in favor of "What ispoetry"?; "What kinds of poetry exist"?; "How ispoetry to be appraised"?; "By intutition"?; "By formalaesthetic analysis by the intellect"?; "Is there any realconflict between the judgment of the intellect and ap­praisal by the intuition"? The tide perhaps has turnedin the department of English from the skepticism ofpure empiricism. In the hands of an intelligent ration­alist, moreover, the truths that empiricism has to offerare not overlooked. The converse of this proposition isalso true. An intelligent empiricist will not overlook thetruths of rationalism.Adler ... Inferiority ComplexAs a. visitor last fall, Dr. Alfred Adler, famedproponent of "individual psychology," of Viennaand the Long Island Medical College in NewYork, lectured at the University campus on the "Mean­ing of Neurosis."Dr. Adler is one of the leading authorities of theworld in the field of dynamic psychology, according topsychologists. Early in the century, he was a collabo­rator with Sigmund Freud of Vienna. Sharply dis­agreeing with Freud as to the fundamental cause ofnervous disorders called "neuroses," Dr. Adler and hisfollowers broke away to form their own school ofthought, "individual psychology." This school maintainsthe doctrine of the "indivisible unity of personality" ineach human being. When this unity of personality isdisturbed, the neurosis occurs, Adler says, while Freudattributes neurosis to sex, according to Universitypsychologists.Tothewhich explainforcesd r i v e PHOTO BY SCHWAllmen and women to want security and even supremacy,Dr. Adler coined the term, "inferiority complex." HereFreud and Adler disagreed again, Freud holding thatthese drives can be traced to sex.New Testament-1300 A. D.AMONG the gifts received by the University duringthis period was an ancient Greek manuscript ofthe Gospels of Luke and John, written about 1300A. D. and discovered in Athens, which was recentlyacquired by the Divinity School. It was purchased fromDaniel Kellad, a numismatist (dealer in old coins), ofJersey City, largely through a gift by John S. Miller,Chicago attorney.This edition is the 26th volume of New TestamentGreek manuscripts in the University'S collection, whichis the second largest in the country. The University ofMichigan owns at present the largest collection of thesemanuscripts.Scholars have noted that the chief peculiarity of thisparticular manuscript is the unusual formation of theGreek letter, gamma, throughout the volume. Most ofits pages are unadorned by miniatures or colored letters.Two further gifts recall the memory of two men onthe famous original faculty brought to the Universityin 1892 by President Willlam Rainey Harper-J. Laur­ence Laughlin, Professor of Political Economy, 1892 to1916, and Franklin Johnson, Professor of Divinity, U,92to 1908-when the Board of Trustees accepted theirportraits for University halls.The portrait of Professor Laughlin, who was the chiefacademic proponent in the country of the 1914 FederalReserve Act, was painted by Johansen and now hangsin the Social Science Assembly Room. The portrait ofProfessor Johnson, done by Charles Hopkinson, is inthe Common Room of Swift hall. The portraits werepresented to the University by Mrs. Laughlin and Mrs.Johnson, wives of the deceased scholars.Stein . . . WilderAMONG the books published by the University Press.was "Narration" by Gertrude Stein. It contain,the four lectures she delivered at the Universitylast year. Thornton Wilder, novelist, professoriallecturer at the University, and friend of Miss Stein,wrote the introduction to the 62-page volume."N arration" has a very unusual cover of modernisticdesign, and the make-up throughout is as unusual asMiss Stein's style. It is not difficult to perceive what MissStein was trying to do in the book. If read aloud cor­rectly, her prose becomes musical, and if the accents areproperly arranged, it becomes intelligible. The silentreader will encounter some difficulty in determining theantecedents of her pronouns. But, by and large, herwriting in this book is intelligible to the average layreader, treating grammar, the distinctions betweenprose and poetry, the relation of news-writing to his­tory, and the relation of the writer to his audience.26-------------------------William DoddWilliam E. DoddANOTHER book, "Essays in Honor of WilliamE. Dodd," has been written by 12 former stu­dents of the present United States Ambassadorto Germany, who is Professor-Emeritus of Modern His­tory at the University. The book includes: "Americaand Freedom of the Seas, 1861-65" by Frank L. Owsleyof Vanderbilt University; "Contemporary Opinion inthe Virginia of Thomas Jefferson" by Maude H.

Most of the men giving the series were younger men on the faculties, and, in gen­eral, they gave the impression that everyt�ing �orth d�­ing in science had been done at the Umverslty. �hlsmay be almcst true in some fields, but the professionsthat depend on science, medicine and engineering, tomention only two, were hardly mentioned. Work in theBiological Sciences-physiology and psychology-on theUniversity campus was slighted. The tribute we pay tothe effort, however, still stands. It was a step in theright direction. It was not the first step either. Pro­fessor Charles Morris of the department of Philosophyhad the idea two years ago and acted on it at that time.Originally intended and interpreted as an attack on therationalist influences at the University, it has compelledstudents and faculty alike to consider the whole scopeof science in its growth and development, and the re­sulting impulse toward synthesis delights anyone whohas not already identified himself as an exponent ofanti-intellectualism.Degrees ... depressionAs CONVOCATION for the Fall Quarter ap­proached, the usual Ph.D. contributions toknowledge made their appearance. Worst ex­amples: "The Early Growth of Poetic Realism in An­ders Osterling, 1904-10," "The Ideal of the Court Ladyin England, 1558-1625," "Boulders from Bengalia," and"Procedures Used in Selecting School Books."Best examples: "Effects of Nitrogen Supply on theRates of Photosynthesis and Respiration in Plants," and"Forecasting the Commodity Price Level, 1850 to 1930:An Appraisal of 150 Predictions.",The question may be rightly raised whether any stu­dents, pressed by economics need to get a degree asquickly as possible, should be allowed to attempt acontribution to knowledge to which the University mustlend the prestige of its name. The fault of trivial re­search by students does not lie with the students neces­sarily. It lies in the professionalization and degradationof the Ph.D. and the weight of academic custom in re­quiring a thesis for such a degree. These errors havebeen heightened by the economic insecurity of students'during the depression years who are in a very justifiablehurry to get the degree and get out to teach as soonas possible. In this they do not differ from law ormedical students, except that the Ph.D. in some depart­ments sets a much easier and quicker task than theJ.D. or the M.D.CharlesMorris�==------------------------========27Radicals or liberals?OYER the vacation at Christmas, many allegedradicals traveled down to Cincinnati to abolishthemselves as "radicals" and become "liberals."In short, the noisy National Student League and thethoughtful Student League for Industrial Democrac,Ymerged; and, together with religious, peace, and humani­tarian organizations, became the American StudentL'nion. This organization has essentially a liberal plat­form, It is against war, fascism, and general tyrannyof any kind. It took a rightful and somewhat righteousstand on acudernic freedom, and it will befriend stu­dents who suffer frcm economic insecurity, wrathful in­structors, race prejudice, or discrimination. ).' ationallyit is probably controlled by liberals. Locally, tempera­mental radlcals may attempt to seize the organization,although this is generally recognized to be against theinterests of the radicals themselves.Nevertheless the present era in the University's socialhistory will undoubtedly be known as the "turbulentthirties," If you don't think so, take a look at 1935,the dime novel vear when the University as hero, theChicago Herald' and Examiner as villai;, M r. CharlesH. Walgreen as the dupe, and Miss Lucille Norton, as thevictim, got all th,'y wanted in terms of prestige, c.ircu­lation, publicity, and the joys of dutiful family obediencerespectively in the State Senate Investigation.The year saw the University break many lances fordemocracy, particularly against "rilliam Randolph Burpas he was so app ropriate.y called in Northwestern Uni­versity's "'.A.A.-M.U. Show of 1936. But lances fordemocracy seem to be dangerous things to handle thesedays. No matter where they are thrust they alwaysseem to bruise an incipient fascist (anti-radical) or anincipient ct.mmunist (radical). Liberal and conservativedemocratic persons, excluding the ant�-radicals and t�eradicals, comprise a larger pr.oportlOn of the U rn­versity's population than the nation's and are somewhatbewildered by the dangers of being democratic.Theil' bewilderment arises from the fact that radicalsand anti-radicals for all their cross-purposes, are tem­porarily allied.First there are the radicals who have developed atechnique by which they cannot lose. Thev .never askfor anything. They demand it. If a demand IS refused,that b news ; if it is granteq, that also is news. Thenthere are the radicals' allies, the anti-radical press. Thedemands are made to stir wrathful publicity in theanti-radical press, and such newspapers cannot losein this game either. They ga:n some. reput�tion forAmericanism (not much) and some circulation (alsonot much). Fulminations of the anti-radical press andorganizations drive liberal and conservative �emocrat­ically minded persons to the ranks of the radicals, be­cause they know that Hitler and Mussolini used pr�­cisely the same fulminations almost word for word IIItheir rise to power.The University has long been the goat of this co­operative team-work between radicals and anti-radicals.The University, along with other universities, will bethe goat of the campaign of 1936 because the pro­fessors have committed the sin of placing their knowl­edge at the disposal of their country. Their honest mis­takes occured, not because they viewed themselves asan aristocracy of brains, but because they traversednew fields. They participated in government by re­quest, not by desire to do so. It is even easier to at­tack a university by attacking its student body. Andthe nice thing about all this is that universities cannotfight back. They tbink it would be undignified.There are no communists on the University's faculty.There is one socialist among the 837 faculty members. JudgeEdwardHintonThe American Student Union is not communist; it isnot socialist; it is not even radical. Anyone who statesthe converse of these assertions is guilty of worse thenmisrepresentation. That is how red the University ofChicago is.Judge Edward W. HintonAs the Winter quarter began, the Law School losta beloved professor, Judge Edward W. Hintonwho had been at the Universitv for the last 22years and was a nationally known authority on plead­ing procedure. He died January 2 at his home, 1221East 56th Street. Sixty-seven years old, Judge Hintonhad been ill of a nervous disorder for two years andhad undergone five operations; nevertheless he ha? con­tinued his teaching duties up to the recent Christmasvacation and W'lS scheduled to resume classes the firstof the year.Second ranking member of the University's lawfaculty in point of service, Judge Hinton held theJames Parker Hall Professorship at the University.He came to the Unlversity in 1913, resigning the dean­ship of the law school of the University of Missouri toaccept the Chicago post. He had practiced law inColumbia, Missouri, for two decades and served asjudge of the district court there.Judge Hinton was widely known among legal scholarsfor his standard case-books, among which are "Hinton'sCases on Code Pleading," "Hinton's Cases on TrialPractice" and "Cases on Equity Pleading." Hecollaborated with "'. W. Cook on "Cases on CommonLaw Pleading."President Robert M. Hutchins said of ProfessorHinton: "He was the most eminent scholar ill thefield of procedural law in the United States, He wasone of the men upon whom the reputation of the Uni­versity's Law School was founded. His was an ex­traordinary combination of scholarship and teachingability. His personality was such as to make him anexceptionally effective teacher; his knowledge was broadand his experience varied."Colleagues remarked upon the affection with whichJudge Hinton was regarded by his students. Clarityof thought, eveness of temper, humor, and profoundscholarship marked his teaching Career. He held aconservative point of view, stressing the importanceof the rules as they had grown up, but with a sense ofthe continuing nature of legal development, they pointedout.Judge Hinton was a consultant in the drafting of thenew Illinois Civil Practice Act, and taught a course inthe Act attended by more than 500 lawyers when theAct became effective two years ago. He was a memberof the Illinois Survey for Criminal Justice, which re­ported in 1926.28----------------------------------------AntonCarlsonPresidents Carlson, Bogert, AlleeOYER the holidays, eminent members of the Uni­versity faculty made headlines for their workin art, literature and science during the past year.Twenty-one different departments of the Univer­sity sent over 100 professors to participate in theannual winter conferences of 12 academic associationsand societies which were held in various parts of thecountry. Their papers crowded the agenda of thesemeetings.Anton J. Carlson, George G. Bogert, and WarderC. Allee returned with presidencies in the American. \ssociation of University Professors, the Associationof American Law Schools, and the American Society ofZoologists respectively. Louis H. 'Wilson still retainedthe presidency of the American Library Association.As President of the American Association of Uni­versity Professors, which last year placed the Univer­sity of Pittsburgh on a blacklist as a protest againstthe methods of that university's administration, Dr.Carlson said, "The Association will direct its chiefefforts to supporting freedom of speech in the country,academic freedom in universities, and reasonable tenurefor professors. By 'reasonable tenure' we mean thatno professor should be dismissed without proof of hisincompetency."President Bogert of the ,\ssociation of AmericanLaw Schools said, "I contemplate getting more of the?ch�ols in active committee work and making the organ­ization more representative. This association has sinceits beginning been in the hands of the large easternschools. Mr. Bogert's election, as that of Dr. Carlson'swas something of a revolt within the organization. 'Again Compton and Cosmic RaysAT the American Association for the Advancementof Science, meeting in St. Louis, Arthur H.Compton, physicist and Nobel-Prize winner,stripped some of the mystery from the cosmic ray. Inall probability the rays consist of three types of parti­cles known to physicists, but endowed with tremen­dous energies, he told them.Dr. Compton summarized the recent work in his ownand other laboratories on these ultra-penetrating raysbefore a joint session of the physics section of theA. A. A. S., the American Physical Society, and the.\merican ,\ssociation of Physics Teachers.Cosmic rays are truly "cosmic" in that they probablyemanate from remote galaxies or remote space, D�.C.o�pton said. The primary cosmic rays, particles asdistinct from secondary rays or the disintegration products caused whe� the r�ys strike the :a�th's at­mosphere, have energies rangmg from two billi.on elec­tron-volts to sixty billion electron-volts, and m occa­sional hursts, particles occur with energies as high as600 hillion electron-volts. Their total heat at earth,however, is probably no greater than that of starlight.There is "adequate evidence" that the primary cos­mic rays are in fact electrically charged particles, Dr.Compton stated. In a provisional analysis of the com­ponents of the rays he said:"The most prominent part of the primary cosmicrays observed above sea-level consists of nearly equalparts of positive and negative electrons. At sea-leveland below is a very penetrating component f?r whichthe identification as protons seems to be reqUIred. Atvery high altitudes there appears a relatively absorb­able component which seems to consist of alphaparticles."The conclusion that cosmic rays are largely electric­ally charged particles is based chiefly on the "latitudeeffect" observed in cosmic ra r studies. Observationstaken throughout the world, among them records ofintensity taken at more than 100 stations by some 80scientists working under the direction of Dr. Comptonin 1'931-34., show that the rays are affected by theearth's magnetic field. At ordinary ultitudes the raysare some 16% more intense near the magnetic equator.At higher altitudes, where the intensity is greater, ratioof intensities between the poles and the equator isprobably more than 100-1, Dr. Compton said. Photons,or true rays, would not be so deflected by the earth'smagnetic field.Curve lines of equal cosmic ray intensity followclosely the parallels of geogmagnetic latitude, andfollow also the lines of frequency of occurrence ofauroral displays, which means that the aurora and thecosmic rays are affected by the earth's magnetism inthe same manner, according to Dr. Compton. Thelower intensity of equatorial cosmic rays in the easternhemisphere than in the western hemisphere correspondsto the stronger magnetic field of the earth in the east.Dr. Compton displayed a new world-map showing"isocosrns," or curves of uniform cosmic ray inten­sities. More exhaustive analysis of this and other data,led to the tentative identification of cosmic ray com­ponents, through a procedure which Dr. Comptondescribed as "USing the earth as a huge though crudemagnetic spectrograph; the earth itself acts as themagnet and in place of the electric field we have thestopping power of the earth's atmosphere.The conclusion that the rays originate far outsidethe earth, the sun or the Milky Way is based on thefact that they apparently approach the earth uni­formly from all directions. "Outside the earth's atmos­phere we fail to find any isotropic distribution of matterwithin our galaxy 'where such rays might originate,"Dr. Compton said. "The extra-galactic nebulae, orsI?�ce itself, would, on the other hand, satisfy the con­dition of spherical symmetry." He suggested thatmost of them originate "at an effective distance of be­tween one billion and ten billion light years."There appears to be an effect on the observed inten­sity of cosmic rays due to the rotation of the MilkvWay, Dr. Compton said. "According to astronomer'sthis r?tation car:ies us toward about 47 degrees northand right a�censlOn 2? hours 55 minutes at a speed ofabout 300 kilometers In a second. This should cause adiurnal variation in cosmic ray intensity followingsidereal time, through a range of the ord�r of about0.1 %." Apparently there is such a variation, Dr. Comp­ton said.==========--------------==========29Arthur ComptonEfforts to learn how cosmic rays are produced havebeen. unsucces�ful, he continued. Among the morepla,;!sIble . theorIes. are Lemaitre's that they are "super­radio-active partIcles" emitted at the initial explosionof the expanding universe; Swann's that they areelectrons accelerated by electromagnetic inductionfrom the chan.ging magnetic field of "sunspots" on giantstars.; a�d MIlne's that they owe their energies to thegravttatlonal attraction of the universe..c0s�ic rays should prove extremely useful tools tosclentists, Dr. Compton concluded. "The immense indi­vidual energies of these rays, some of them with anerg o! energy for. a single atomic projectile, give thema unique place III the physicist's atomic artillery."Alr�ady they have been used in the discovery ofpositrons. They will be used to extend knowledge ofthe earth's magnetic. fie�d high above the atmosphere;�o test �lectrodynR;mIcs III an energy region heretoforelllaccessIJ;lle; and III astronomy, as a powerful meansof stud:png t�le rotation of the galaxy and of learningthe �nclent. history of the universe. In biology, "it isnot Impossible that they play an important part inthe spontaneous variations upon which evolutionarychanges depend," he said.One perpl�xing recen� problem is that the high­energy cosmic ray particles do not excite as muchradiation as is required by present electrical theory,Dr. Compton stated. An extension of the presenttheory of electrodynamics is needed, comparable withthe extension of Maxwell's electrodynamics introducedby Lorentz and Einstein for the condition of highvelocities."Heavy Silver"-DernpsterALSO at St. Louis, silver's usefulness as a standardof money was called into question in a. scientific. paper by Arthur Dempster, University physicist,before the American Physics Society and the physics di­vision of the American Association for the Advance­ment of Science.Describing as ingenious new method developed in hislaboratory for analyzing the chemical elements pre­sent in any material, and the "isotopes" contained inthe elements, Dr. Dempster reported that he had beenable to find only one form of gold. In an interviewin connection with his paper he reported finding twoforms, or weights, 01' silver."Heavy" silver outweighs "light silver" by a ratioof 109 to 107, Dr. Dempster said. Theoretically thetwo forms of silver should be quoted at diff�rentprices, if their usefulness in the arts is considered indetermining their value. This would become " realquestion if it were discovered that some silver lodeswere producing more of one than the other. In his paper Dr. Dempster reported the discoveryof five isotopes, or weights, of platinum, six of palla­dium and two of iridium. "Isotopes" are different formsof the same element, the atoms having different weightsbut the same chemical properties. "Heavy water," or"heavy hydrogen," is a recently discovered example.Dr. Dempster's finding that there is only one formof gold would seem to indicate that gold has an ad­vantage as a standard of value because a separationinto different kinds of gold is not possible.When the Treasury pays fifty cents per ounce for themixture called ordinary silver it is actually paying50.46 cents per ounce for "light" silver and 59.54 p:::rounce for the "heavv" kind of silver. In its commer­cial and artistic uses, "light" silver logically shouldcommand a slightlyhigher price by weightbecause of the greateramount of it per unitof weight.Dr. Dempster's ap­paratus is an exten­sion of the "massspectrograph" to theanalysis of solids. In1935 Professor Astonat Cambridge, Eng­land, using a gaseousform of silver chlo­ride, discovered theexistence of the twosilver isotopes in afew samples. Dr.Dempster has verifiedthis in a number oftests using solid sil­ver, and has extendedthis type of analysisto other metals.Arthur DempsterStellarscope-BartkyNEWEST gadget in the field of scientific educa­tion is the stellarscope, invented and developedb�' Walter Bartky, Associate Professor of As­troncmy at the University.Consisting of a lens, a piece of moving picture filmand a flashlight bulb and battery, the stellarscopewill enable Dr. Bartky to cease trying to explain thecomplicated constellations of the heavens in the class­room. Instead, his class can hold informal meeting ona clear night, gaze at the actual stars with one eye,while the other eye is engaged in looking into the stel­larscope where recorded on the film, appear the starsof a constellation with its correct name and form indi­cated diagrammatically, illuminated and magnified.The stellarscope is made of bakelite with a chromiumflashlight attached and a roll of film with 24 star-maps,some one of which will fit almost any section of theheavens that can be seen with the naked eye.Stellar scopes foundsome use in classesthis veal'. They alsomay 'be of some usefor night flying, par­ticularly in planes notequipped with radio.WaItel' Bartky30-------------------------PHOTO BY SCHWAB"Puhlic Management"-OghurnTURNING to the work of the Social Sciences inthe early winter quarter, William F. Ogburn,Professor of Sociology, began a series of 12 arti­cles in a publication of the Public AdministrationClearing House called "Public Management." He isattempting to find, on the basis of the 1930 censusfigures, what the best size of a city is for various oc­cupations and interests of people in the United States.The first article was entitled "Social Characteristics ofCities" in the series which was entitled "PopulationTraits."Dr. Ogburn'S conclusions in this article may bestated thus: Cities of the United States boasting "­million or more inhabitants can also boast of moremiddle-aged persons, more' men than women fewerbirths, fewer deaths, more foreign-born citizens; higherwages, higher rents, more radios, and more tax-payers­pro-portionally speaking-then small towns and ruraldistricts.Ranging cities in nine, groups from those over amillion to those Jess than 2,500, Dr. Ogburn found thatoldste:s over 55 and youngsters under 20 seem to prefert�e �I�le and open spaces, that. women really like thebig cities bes!, but that the f?relgn born citizenry raisethe number of males by leaving wives and children illthe old country, at least temporarily, that the low birthrate shows that large cities are not places in which tobring up children, that the low death rate doesn't meanbig �ities are healthy, but that the people most likelyto die, the very young and the very old, live in smalltowns, and that the high wages of the city just beat thecost of living by the price of one radio."The purpose of this study," said Dr. Ogburn, "isto show how these and other measurable characteristicsvary according to the size of the community.""The subject is of some interest since we move aboutfrom one city to another and would like to know inchoosing a place to live what are the characteristics ofthe larger cities and smaller places."Another point of interest centers around what isthe best size of the city," said Dr. Ogburn.He concludes the article: "Of all the characteristics?f cities according to their size, perhaps the one that,IS mos.t ef!'ective gene;ally in determining whether weshall live In a large city or a small one is the size ofthe income. There are some who argue that the verylarge cities are too big, that they should decrease or at least not grow any more, while the small places mightwell increase. The indices of income Just presentedmay be quite inadequate for predicting whethey suchdesiderata may result, but as they. st?-nd t�e mcomestatistics presented do not seem to Indicate, III �nd ?fthemselves, that the large cities will stop growmg IIIfavor of increases in the smaller ones."Senator Lewis ... President RooseveltMEANWHILE Harold F. Gosnell, Associate Pro­fessor of political. Sc!ence, and his a?sistant,Normal N. Gill, Said III the quarterly Issue ofthe "American Political Science Review" that the un­employed foreign-born Catholics, people paying lowrents and poor people generally in the Chicago regionvoted for Senator James Hamilton Lewis in 1930 andfor President Roosevelt in 1932, while men of wealth,scions of old Protestant families, women with moneyand leisure voted Republican. The study was basedon election returns of 1928, 1930 and 1932. It showedextraordinary facility of technique, with many in­genious methods of tabulation and correlation."I am convinced that the same people will supportPresident Roosevelt and the New Deal again in 1936,"predicted Dr. Gosnell, "and the same line-up as 1932 andbefore will hold for the Republicans.Dr. Gosnell and Mr. Gill found positive statisticalrelationship among the following factors: Roosevelt vote,1932; Lewis vote, 1930; Smith vote, 1928; Catholic ori­gins; foreign birth; unemployment; low rental areas;and straight-ticket voting. The article is the result ofmore than a year's research.The article states: "In the past two decades, the polit­ical behavior of the citizens of Chicago in national elec­tions has been similar to that of the entire Americanelectorate. Except for the election of 1916, when Hughescarried the city by a narrow margin, the presidentialcandidate who carried Chicago also carried the electoralcollege. In many ways Chicago is typical of the UnitedStates as a whole in the twentieth century. It is a cross­section of the mixture of races, religions, sects, linguisticgroups, and economic classes that make up modernAmerica."Looking at the figures from a broad point of view,the party which enjoys least success over a period ofyears tends to attract to it those elements which have theleast social prestige and economic security."This long period of Republican supremacy resulted inthe traditional northern Democratic vote being personsof Catholic origin, of foreign birth, and the unemployed,according to Dr. Gosnell. These groups voted stronglyfor Al Smith in 1928, Lewis in 1930, and Roosevelt-in1932.PHOTO BY JOH,V ROBER'rS----------------------31"There were many exceptions to the general tendencyfor poor people to swing more decidedly than the richin the direction of the Democratic party in 1932. Theareas where unemployment hit the hardest were thosewhich were already strongly Democratic in 1928. To in­crease the Democratic vote in these areas was a difficulttask, since there were some Republicans who could nothe moved from their party allegiance even by economicadversity. All economic groups were affected adverselyby the economic crisis which started in 1929. All levelsrelieved some of their tensions by voting against theparty in power.The study raises some questions appropriate in thefield of political science. In technique it was a represen­tative feat of modern statistics. yet most of its conclu­sions were common sense conclusions. They are whatevery ward-heeler knows. The only answer to this isthat the ward heeler may know, but he does not knowhow he knows. The political scientist, by indulging' inthis kind of a study, can point to it as proof that heknows. But what he knows was only true with referenceto an instant of time, and as the situation changes, theward-heeler is likely to know more about it than thepolitical scientist. Furthermore, the principle drawn:namely, that the political party enjoying the least successover a number of years will attract persons of the leastsccial prestige and economic insecurity is .l principlethat is equally available to the common sens-.If the data and the principle may be apprehendedthrough general observation and application of commonsense, why not reserve the thorough study for matterswhich are in some doubt? Certainly the factual contentof Dr. Gosnell's study could have been inferred at leastas easily as his own inference that Chicago is typical ofthe United States and with much more justification thanhis inference that the same people will vote the sameway in 1936. The person exercising common sense would,indeed, never have ventured such a prediction, and infairness to Dr. Gosnell, it must be mentioned that hemade the prediction orally on the basis of his study, Theprediction was not included in the study,Harry D. Gideonse . . . Neutrality and WarI lS' addition to research papers, Journal articles, andclassroom lecturers, University professors oftencommunicate their knowledge and their views in pub­lic lectures, either in connection with the University orentirely outside of it. An example, taken at randomfrom many others, was an address given in January h)'Harry D. Gideonse, Associate Professor of Economicsbefore the K. A. M. Temple at 50th Street and DrexelBoulevard. He spoke on the question: "Can America Re­main Neutral in Case of Another War?", and held theproposals for neutrality legislation which were then be­fore Congress in unequivocal scorn."The present neutrality bills are in my judgment theworst jumble of amateurish, ill-conceived, and impracti­cal proposals that have come out of Congress since thedepression began," said Mr. Gideonse. "I have no great admiration for the policy of 'leaving things as theywere' but if the choice is between this and either theNye or the administration bill, I firmly believe in thewisdom of leaving things alone,""The mischievous legislation now proposed is based onthe philosophy of 'peace at any price', When did Ameri­can public opinion declare itself in favor of su�h apolicy? No g:eat nation can.possibly aI_lnou�ce tlns.asits program Without encouraging aggressIOn. I'he policycan best be characterized as 'making the world safe foraggression.' we are telling Italr, �apan, <;'ermany. thatin case they choose to commit International crimes,we will officially oblige them by refusing to aid or sellanything to their victims that might be helpful in theirhour of need."This policy will encourage the forces plotting for war.It will almost certainly drive nations into renewedpressure toward economic nationalism in an effort tobecome self-sufflcient in those fields in which they arenow dependent on trade from the United States. It will,therefore, result in permanent damage to our exporttrade in peace as well as war.This type of jiublic lecture seems of utmost benefitfrom the point of view of both the University and thepublic. It permits an authority to comment without aca­demic pedantry in the field in which he is an authority.It enables him to take his knowledge and apply it tothe critical analysis or to the solution of present prob­lems. Here Mr. Gideonse took the principle which everyorthodox economist accepts-namely, that world tradeHarry Gideonsemust be free from barriers legislatively imposed to en­able our economic system to work properly-and appliedit to the practical neutrality problems before Congress.He combined that economic principle with a rule of law­namely, that one who aids an unlawful act (aggression)is liable also. The principle was and is based on datafrom which it was secured inductively. The rule of lawis based on principles of ethics and politics founded inexperience and substantiated by cases. But Mr. Gideonsedid not mention any of these things. He takes the princi­ples of economics and the rule of law and applies themdeductively to the practical situation. This digressionis merely to show that authorities who wish to be in­telligible employ principles in dealing with a practicalsituation, not facts, data, or cases, though they do notand should not forget that facts, data, and cases are thefoundations for the principles.32-------Another means of communication the University hasdeveloped along the same lines as the public lectures isthe University Roundtable, broadcast nationally everySunday morning.

RheinsteinOUTSTANDING among University gifts receivedduring the winter quarter was to the Law School,which, with a faculty of young men, is once moremaking its way toward the top of the top flight of lawschools in the country.Trustees of the estate of Max Pam, distinguishedChicago corporation lawyer who died in 1925, have turnedover to the University the sum of $85,000 for the use ofits law school. The fund will be used in setting up the"Max Pam Professorship of Comparative Law."Allocation of this sum to the University completesthe distribution of approximately $350,000 which Mr.Pam's will provided should be set aside fur such educa­tional and philanthropic purposes as his trustees mightdesignate.Professor Max Rheinstein, of Germany, brilliant youngscholar of comparative law formerly on the facult;\' ofthe University of Berlin, has been named by the Univer­sity to the Pam chair. Professor Rheinstein has beenon the University's law faculty since October, 1934, on atemporary basis. The Pam fund enables the Universityto make him a regular member of the law faculty.AppointmentsSIGNS of the depression's departure are found inthe impressiv� list of appointments �hat .oc?nrredduring the Wmter Quarter.

He has workedalso on blood regeneration and the interrelation of en­docrines.Pharmacology, which is defined as "the physiologicalanalysis of the mode of action of drugs and therapeuticagents" has hitherto been included in the work of theUniversity's department of Physiological Chemistry andPharmacology. Under the new arrangement Phar­macology becomes a separate department and the olderdepartment, which is headed by Professor Fred C.Koch, is re-named the department of Biochemistry. TheUniversity is not entering upon a program of trainingpharmacists, it was pointed out; it is doing advancedteaching and research in pharmacology, as defined.Earl Floyd Simmons, 26 years old, who received theJ. D. degree through the University's Law School inMarch, 1935, has been appointed Lecturer in the Uni­versity's Law School for the Winter quarter, which opens,J anuary 2. Simmons achieved unusual distinction as astudent. He won the \Vig and Robe Prize as the highestranking student for his first two years, a RaymondScholarship for the third vear, and was elected to theOrder of the Coif, He will teach one course, on Busi­ness Organization.Professor Rudolph Carnap outstanding authority onthe philosophy of science on the faculty of the GermanUniversity of Prague, will teach at the University ofChicago this winter. He was Professor Charles Morrisof the University of Chicago this summer organized theInternational Congress for the Unity of Science, whichmet at the Sorbonne, Paris, this September.------------------------------33New Trustee RandallADDITIONS to the Board of Trustees, always im­portant, have taken on new importance in thesedays when the University is likely to be attackedby outside agents. The Board of Trustees may controlthe University to the extent they wish. They have theright, if not the duty, to discharge any University em­ploye. But since the history of education shows thedangers of permitting the curriculum to be dictated bypublic opinion, since the history of science shows theconsequences of allowing prejudice to interfere with thesearch for truth, and since society has decided to setaside men who will search for knowledge and will com­municate it impartially, the Board of Trustees haverestricted themselves to two responsibilities: (1) re­sponsibility of managing University property, and (2)responsibility of interpreting the University to and de­fending it from the public. The president is the chiefinterpreter of the University to the Board of Trusteesand the chief watchdog over University funds to preventthem from being wasted. The president's function, then,is a double one; toward the trustees it is educative;toward the faculty it is administrative. President Hutch­ins wrote: "Where the President, the Trustees, and theFaculty all agreed that a professor had embarrassed theUniversity, what then? If he were a competent teacherand scholar on permanent tenure, he should not be re­moved. If he were a competent teacher and scholar, ontemporary appointment, if the funds were available forhis work, if there were no man as good to take hisposition, he should not fail of reappointment.?"The new trustee is Clarence B. Randall, vice-presidentof the Inland Steel Company. He was elected a memberof the Board of Trustees of the University at the be­ginning of the year and the election was announcedJanuary 9 by Harold H. Swift, President of the Board.Mr. Randall, a resident of Winnetka, has been presi­dent of the Board of Education of Winnetka for sixyears. He has headed the Trade and Industry Divisionof the Community Fund drive in Chicago for the lasttwo years. He is president of the Harvard Club ofChicago.Election of Mr. Randall fills the vacancy created bythe recent change in the status of Mr. Charles R.Holden, who has become an "honorary trustee" after23 years of active service. Mr. Holden, until recentlya vice-president of the First National Bank of Chicago,is moving to California.Mr. Randall received the A.B. degree at HarvardUniversity in 1912, and the LL.B. degree there in 1915.He practiced law in Ishpeming, Michigan, for someyears but retired from practice when he came to Chicagoin 1925 to become associated with the Inland Steel Co.During the War he was a captain in the U. S. infantryand served nine months overseas.Eight Hundred Thousand DollarsP ROBABL Y the biggest and best thing that hap­pened to the University during the month of Feb­ruary was $800,000."There is far better provision for cooperation betweenthe United States and China than there is between anytwo adjacent states of the Union."Behind this statement, dramatizing the "marked isola­tion" existing among state and local governments, liesone important reason for the grant of $800,000 to theUniversity by the Spelman Fund of New York, whichwas announced recently.* Robert M. Hutchins, "The Board of Trustees andAcademic Freedom," University of Chicago Magazine,Jan. 1936, p. 5. The fund is designated for the erection and mainten­ance of a building to house the national headquarters ofseventeen associations of public officials and other pro­fessional groups which are working on practical, every­day problems of administering the public business, asdistinct from governmental problems of policies andpolitics.These organizations, among them the national asso­c!ations of municipal engineers, public works officials,CIty managers, state leagues of municipalities, publicwelfare officers, civil service officials, state legislators,assessors and municipal finance officers, have moved theirnational headquarters to Chicago> adjacent to the Uni­versity, at various times within the last five years. Thenew building to house them will be erected on Univer­sity property, on the south front of the Midway atthe southeast corner of Kenwood Ave. and 60th S{Primary aims of the associations are "breaking downof the isola�fon. whiSh. has exis!ed between local govern­ment agencies m v�r�ous �echons of the country; im­provemeI_lt of administr-ation through interchange ofInformation .and of the results of experience; fosteringof co-operation between governments at all levels, local,state .and f�deral; and advancing among public officialstechnical skill and administrative competence."C�rrently, and in the past the Public AdministrationClearIng H�JUse and its allied organizations have demon­�trated t�elr usefulness in the pooling and exchange ofinformation among government agencies throughout thecountry," President Hutchins said. "The University hasprofited greatly by the presence of these organizationson it� c�mpus. \Ve are very much pleased that theorgamzahon� are now to have a permanent home there.The enterprise I_low ceases to be an experiment; it be­comes II;n es�abl�shed feature of American government.The University IS delighted at the chance to cooperate."Public Administration Clearing House, central agencyof tbe group of associations, is headed by Louis Brown­low, former Commissioner of the District of Columbiaand former <;ity Manager of Knoxville, Tenn. Its boardof trustees IS. cO?Iposed of former-governor Frank O.Low�.en. o! Ill�nOls, �hairman; Senator Harry F. Byrdof '�rgInla, vice-ch�Irman; Ralph Budd, president ofthe C. B. & Q. Railroad , Richard S. Childs of New34===============--------------------York, former president of the National MunicipalLeague; former-governor William T. Gardinet of Maine;Mr. Brownlow and President Hutchins.Although the organizations remain distant from eachother and from the University, advantage is gained byhaving them under a single roof and close to the Uni­versity, President Hutchins pointed out. "The organi­zations profit from the research and scholarship of theUniversity. The University's research and teaching ingovernment profits from the practical work of the asso­ciations and their memberships." A number of associa­tion directors noll' hold lectureships on the University'sfaculty.Too much emphasis cannot be laid on the assertionthat the University's intention is not to use the coop­erative arrangements between it and the Public Admin­istration Clearing House to train public administrators,government officials, or public servants" Its intention isto use the work already being done by the clearing houseto find out how public and government services shouldbe administered. It intends to build a field of knowledgeabout government administration.21 Experts Throw Townsend PlanMEANWHILE research was ploughing onward atthe University, sometimes having significance forimmediate problems, sometimes-and more prop­erly-being contributions to knowledge for its own sake.In the former class of research falls the dicta ofeconomists, public administrators, and tax experts thatthe Townsend Plan was just economic patent medicine.Material in their report later was used in a radio debateby Professor Gideonse with Congressman McGroarty,'I'ownsendite in Congress, to bring out the fact that Mc­Groarty was not planning to bestow a full $200 on eachof America's aged. with the result that the leaders ofPHOTO BI" ROBERTS the movement resigned amid dissension and. the movementwas sent toward its subsequent failure.After "serious and careful analysis" of the Townsendplan, twenty-one experts at the University condem theplan on every score. Their findings were published in ajointly-signed, 3D-page pamphlet at the University Pressunder the title "The Economics Meaning of the 'Town­send Plan'."After pointing out by detailed statistics that the moneyto finance the plan, even under the revised McGroartybilI, cannot possibly be raised, and that administrativeproblems raised by the plan are insoluble, the signersdeclare that the plan's effect would be the reverse of"putting money into circulation," that it would curtailbusiness, depress wages, raise Iiving oosts, deepen thedepression, and probably wonld ruin the monetary stand­ard. Its tax provisions are inequitable, and it is un­sound as a system of old-age pensions or social security.Signers of the pamphlet were: Professors Harry A.Millis, Jacob Viner, Frank H. Knight, Chester W.Wright, Henry Schultz, Simeon E. Leland, MelchiorPalyi, Henry C. Simons, Lloyd 'V. Mints, Harry D.Gideonse, A. Eugene Staley, and Albert G. Hart of theUnlverslty's Economics department; Professors Gar­field V. Cox, John H. Cover" and Theodore Yntema ofthe School of Business; Professors Marshall Dimockand Clarence Heel' of the political science department;Professor William F. Ogburn of the sociology depart­ment; Fred K. Keohler, director of the American PublicWelfare Association; Carl H. Chatters, executive direc­tor of the National Association of Tax Assessing Officers;and Joseph P. Harris, co-directors of the public adminis­tration committee of the Social Science ResearchCouncil.Among other statements in the pamphlet are thefollowing:Pensions of over $200 a month for all qualified personsover 60 years of age could not possibly be financed ex­cept by throwing over all hope of preserving a soundmonetary system and indulging in currency or creditinflation to the tune of $15,000,000,000 or more per an­num. Such inflation, incidentally, would soon cut downthe purchasing power of a $200 pension very substan­tially.""If all the debits to individual accounts in banks dur­ing 1935 had been taxed 2 per cent, there would havebeen just enough, neglecting administration expensesand other taxes, to pay $100 a month to eight millionpersons. But the number of these debits is much greaterthan the number of taxable transactions because pay­ments for government securities, remittances betweenhead and branch offices of firms, and expenditures onsalaries and interest of all governmental bodies are in­cluded in the debit figures.""Instead of putting money into circulation the Town­send. Plan as of April, 1935, would force the Treasuryto wlthdr.aw money from circulation, or bank depositsan� hold It idle for the first months. In addition to this,prlvate firms would have to set aside cash reserves tomeet. the tax. Thus for the first months money wouldbe Withdrawn from circulation and when payments weremade to pensioners, this same money would be put backinto circulation.""Business men would raise the selling prices, reducewages, and hoard money to pay the tax, making the effectof the tax one that would cast us back into deep de­pression."The pamphlet is No. 20 in the "Public Policy Series"issued by the University Press under the editorship ofProfessor Harry D. Gideonse.---------------35Seven stone tablets . . . XerxesAs an example of the other kind of research, thekind which contributes to knowledge for its ownsake, we turn to a major discovery of the Orien­tal Institute, which the late, great James Henry Breastedhad established that the past might live again. Practicalmen might say that nothing the Oriental Institute hasever contributed is of the slighest use. Yet practicalmen have contributed to the Oriental Institute, and ithas, in its work so far, made one of the greatest in­tellectual contributions in the modern era. Archaeologi­cally, the Oriental Institute has proceeded scientificallyand has contributed to science; analytically (i. e. inanalyzing and evaluating its finds), it has proceededPHOTO BY HOLWAJ' A.liD EISENDRAl'Hintellectually and has contributed to intellectual history.Seven stone tablets, on which the great Persian em­peror, Xerxes, records for posterity the state of hisempire some 2,420 years ago, were discovered in Iran(Persia) by excavators for the Oriental Institute of theUniversity.The tablets were found stored in a room of Xerxes'army garrison east of the Great Palace at Persepolis,the "Versailles" of ancient Persia, now being unearthedand restored by the Oriental Institute.Three of the four tablets bear inscriptions new tohistorians, listing for the first time the provincesXerxes ruled, and more important, relating Xerxes'success in putting down enemies of the religion ofZoroaster after an uprising, hitherto unknown, whichoccurred in the early days of Xerxes' reign.Announcement of the find is made by Dr. John A.Wilson, newly appointed acting director "of the OrientalInstitute and successor of the late Dr. James H.Breasted. Dr. Erich F. Schmidt field director of theIranian Expedition, reported the discovery during avisit to Chicago in January.Written in cuneiform characters in the Elamite,Babylonian and Old Persian languages, the tablets ap­parently were made for use as "cornerstone" founda­tion deposits. As translated hy Professor Ernst Herz­feld the three "new" tablets read in part as follows:a. Sayeth Xe/";/'P.' the lcin.q : By the u-ill. of Ahu1"C!­nuuul«, thes« are the lands beside Pars OVeI' which I wasking; I I'll led them; th,·y brouqh : me t rilnste; "What 'Wasordered them. by me thei did; m'l, law' held them' MediaElam, Aruehosia, Zmnga, Parthin, .Lrci«, Bact,:ia, Sog� dia, Chorasmia, Babylonia.

In the new inscriptions Xerxesclaims, on the west, "the Ionians that dwell in the Seaand those that dwell beyond the Sea." This indicatesthat the tablets were inscribed during the five years be­tween Xerxes' accession in 485 B, C. and the battle ofSalamis. 4BO B. C., when the Persian attack on Greeceended in dismal failure.Chief significance of the new texts IS m religious his­tory, according to Dr. Wilson. They record that Xerxesbegan his reign by defending Ahuramazda, the "WiseLord," and Arta (,Rtam) the "Divine World Order"against a revolt stirred up by the worshippers of othergods, the Daivas, and that he "sapped the foundations"of the temples of the Daivas. Ahuramazda, the Lord,and Arta, the world-principle, were central elements ofthe monotheistic faith of Zoroaster.Although many scholars have maintained that Zoro­aster lived about 900 B. C., tradition has it that he livedin,. the time of Xerxes' grandfather, according to Dr.'\\ ilson. The new tablets tend to confirm tradition."\Ve may infer from the new texts that Xerxes' father,PHOTO BY ROBERTS36-=-=��-------------------========Darius the Great, heard the teachings of Zoroaster inthe house of his father, Vistaspa, and instituted the wor­ship of Ahuramazda and Arta throughout his empire.The dispossessed priests and worshippers of the old gods,the Daivas, had no opportunity to restore their religionin Darius' reign, but seized the occasion of his death tolead a religious rebellion. This revolt Xerxes put down."Dr. Wilson revealed that the Institute's diggers pre­viously had discovered solid gold and silver plaques,foundation deposits actually in place at two corners ofthe magnificent audience hall of the palace at Persep­olis. These were laid down, probably in the presenceof Darius in 515-16 B. C. The palace, most splendidof the imperial residences of ancient Persia, was startedby Darius and finished forty years later by Xerxes.The two deposits, each containing one gold and onesilver plaque, all with identical inscriptions, were f.oundin beautifully cut limestone boxes, the metal shiningas the day it was incised, Beneath each deposit weresix gold and silver coins, apparently of Greek origin.The plaques and coins have been turned over to theShah of Persia, Riza Khan Pehlevi. The plaque inscrip­tions are as follows:Darius the Great Kind, the King of Kings, the Ingof the Lands, Vistaspct's son, the ""1 chaemenid, speak»Darius the King: This is the em/pire 'which I possess, [ro-mthe Sacae who are beyond Sogdia, as f ar (IS the Kush.from the Tndus us far as the Sparda, which Ahuramaztlchas ,qranted to! me, who, is the qreate«t of gods, mayAh.uramazda protect myself and my house!In 1932 the Persepolis expedition uncovered a spec­tacular double-stairway leading to the audience hall,with 300 feet of relief sculptures, in which emissariesof 23 nations are depicted bearing gifts and tribute. In1934. '" hoard of 29,000 cuneiform clay tablets, presum­ably accounts, was discovered. The Iranian governmenthas loaned this archive material to the Institute forstudy and translation, and the tablets are now on theirway to America. Fifteen tons of GovernmentTHE University Libraries, despite the l??g mo­ments you have undoubtedly. spe,;t w.albn� f�rbooks, is one of the finest university Iibruries IIIthe country. In February, fifteen tons of data on state,county, and local governments of the United States havebeen added to the University's collection of researchdocuments as the result of one of the most extensivecollecting tours ever undertaken by any Amerrcan Li­brary,There are those who suspect dynamic, long-windedM. Llewellyn Raney, director of University Libraries,of deliberately collecting such mountains of materialthat the next building the University will have to erectwill be another library to accommodate all the books anddocuments.Anyhow, the collections by James G, Hodgson of theUniversity's library staff, who has just returned from a17-111onth, 35,000-mile collecting expedition, seems thor­oughly worth while, He visited more than 300 localitiesin the 48 states and in 6 Canadian provinces,Journals of state legislatures, proceedings of stateconstitutional conventions, proceedings of city councilsand county boards, annual reports of state executivedepartments, of police departments, park systems, andschool systems, are among the items collected.Partly as a result of Mr. Hodgson'S efforts the Uni­versity will possess complete, unbroken records of thesession laws of the legislatures of all 48 states, In thecase of Massachusetts these go back to 1661, When Mr.Hodgson set out the University needed records of 1,200sessions, Through his tour and through correspondence600 were secured. The remaining 600 are being copiedby photostat.The University libraries now possess one of the out­standing collections of official publications, Current aswell as historical publications were obtained, and inmany cases the University has been given a subscriptionto serial publications. In "one New England community,for example, Mr. Hodgson secured all official publica­tions back to 1640. Most of the material was obtainedwithout charge to the University,While on the subject of libraries, there are some kindwords that can be said for newspapers, even Chicagonewspapers.------------------------------37Under pressure f'rorn research workers who assert thatnewspapers are one of the most important single sourcesof historical and social research, the University librariesbought up this year back files of the London Chroniclefrom 1758 to 1823, The Boston Transcript from 1830 to1935, The London Times from 1829 to 1936, and 20 othercollections of newspapers throughout the world, manyextending back to the 18th century. Armed with films,and preservatives, University library officials now seekto make, these research materials permanent assets.Another feature of the new program, which is lookingto the future as well as the past, is subscription to 56of the most representative metropolitan newspapers ofthe world, both domestic and foreign.Special efforts have been made to get a completerepresentation of every major region of the world, usingoften more than one newspaper to achieve perfect con­tinuity. The University now has complete newspaperrecords for London between 1758 and 1936, for NewEngland between 1784 and 1936, for Germany (Frank­furter Zeitung) from 1870 to 1936, and thus for manyother regions of the world.Further subscriptions are contemplated for papersfrom South America, Canada, Cuba, Denmark, Norway,the Netherlands, England, Germany, and France, as wellas ten more United States newspapers. Back files musthe bought up in Canada, Mexico, South America,,\ ustralla, Hawaiian Islands, and many Asiatic andEuropean countries. Care is being taken not to dupli­cate files ,or subscriptions of any other Chicago libraryor university, Northwestern University, for example,has a very fair file of Far Eastern newspapers.Preservation of newspaper files has presented a diffi­cult problem. Filming is the latest and best device forpreserving newsprint. Use of a paste containing pre­servative to attach newsprint to a durable paper is ave ry laborious and space-wasting method. Some pub­lishers are now printing rag paper editions for filingpurposes which has been very useful, though they tooconsume too much space. On the whole, filming is themost successful method, and several newspaper havealready begun filming each issue of their papers forlibrary use.Other documents acquired by the University duringFebruary tended to prove the United States, during itsearly days, almost had Napoleon to deal with.Swelling what is already the largest collection ofmaterial in an�' American university on the Marquis de Lafayette, French statesman who placed himself andhis wealth at the disposal of the American revolutionistsof 1771l. the University libraries announced recently theacquisition of eighteen letters written in English in La­fayette's own hand to 'William Harris Crawford, early.\merican statesman,The letters show that Lafayette tried to make itpossible for Napoleon to gain refuge rn the UnitedStates after ". aterloo, a hitherto unsuspected historicalfact. Napoleon, however, preferred to surrender tothe British.Dr. Louis R. Gottschalk, professor of History, whohas just published Laiauett.e Comes to A ml'l'irn. reportsfrom a reading of the letters, "In one of the communica­tions, Lafayette claims to have tried to aid Napoleon toescape to the United States, saying, 'His former cham­berlain and ladies of the palace charge me with Bona­partisrn for not Having Consented to give him up to BeShot by the allies.' Joseph Bonaparte's course Lafayetteconsidered wiser, writing: 'His sentiments and Conductwith Respect to the U. S. Having at all times Been verypopular. He has in this late instance shown more Sensethan His Brothel' who from the dav of His abdication tothat of His surrendering to the -British Ship had hischoice to go 'Over to America and to Columbia hos­pitality.' "Joseph Bonaparte did come to America with Lafay­ette's aid.Concerning the whole scope of the letters, Dr. Gott­schalk who regards them as invaluable historical docu­ments, says, "They refer to the Treaty of Ghent whichclosed the War of 1812, to Waterloo and the fall ofNapoleon, to the restoration of the Bourbon Kings ofFrance, to the Congresses of Vienna and Aix-Ia-Chapene,to the Holy Alliance, to France's unpopular war withSpain in 1823, to the land in Louisiana which Congressgranted to Lafayette, to the romantic, but abortive con­spiracy of the Four Sergeants of La Rochelle, to theGreek War of Independence, and other important his­torical events of the period.""While it appears that Lafayette distrusted N apo­leon," said Dr. Gottschalk, "he considered him preferableto the legitimate kings of France. As Lafayette wrotehimself, 'We all become imperialists to preserve ourchance as citizens.'"These letters will be added to the University's pres­ent Lafayette collection which includes letters writtenby Madame Lafayette, by Anastasie and George Wash­ington Lafayette, his daughter and son, and by Pre­fect Masclet, his intimate friend. Correspondence be­t_ween Lafay:ette to his close friends, Frances Wright,liberal EnglIsh-woman, and Mme. Malibran, celebratedactress and singer, confirms the assertions of both ladiesthat his relationship to them was no more than platonic.More New AppointmentsNEW appointments during the month of Februarybrought men to the Oriental Institute and the de­partment of Art.The University will add Chinese to the vast number ofla�guages already taught at the Midway upon the ap­pomtment of Dr. Herrlee G. Creel as instructor in Chi­nese Hist�ry and Language. Only thirty-one years old,Dr. Creel IS an outstanding scholar in the ancient historyand the language of China. He was a student at theUniversity from 1925 to 1929, taking in that period hisbatchelor's, master's, and doctor's degrees. Dr. Creelwill teach two classes beginning next quarter "Elemen­tary: Chinese," t�e first of a three-quarter sequ�nce in thesubject, and "History of China: 1400 B. C. to 256 B. C."38------------------------------Another course currently taught at the University is"Elementary Ethiopic" under Arnold Walther, AssistantProfessor of Hittite. This course is not a recent devel­opment at the University, but has been given for severalyears. Some of the other languages offered are: Sanskr�t,Persian, Arabic, Syriac, Akkadian, Turkish, Arama�c,Hittite, Egyptian, Coptic, Egyptian Helroglypbic,Egyptian Demotic, Icelandic, Lithuanian and ChurchSla'vic, Swedish, Hebrew, Gothic, Sumerian, in additionto the usual Greek, Latin, French, Spanish, Italian,German, Russian, and many American Indian lan­guages.Two German citizens, Dr. Ludwig Bachhofer of theUniversity of Munich and Dr. Ulrich Middeldorf of theInstitute of Art Research in Florence, Italy, havejoined the University faculty as assistant professors ofArt. Renowned critic and writer on Far Eastern Art,Dr. Bachhofer was appointed some months ago, butwas unable to obtain a release from the University ofMunich until after the autumn examinations. Dr. Mid­deldorf for the last ten years has been curator at theFlorentine Institute and is well known to American stu­dents who have studied there. He will lecture at theUniversity largely on Italian sculpture."New Plan-great"EARLY in March five professors from the Teacher'sCollege of Columbia University attended school atthe University for four days.After closely observing Chicago's "New Plan" theyunited on this statement: "It's great!"The visiting professorial students were: Dr. JesseNewlon, professor of Education and chairman of thedivision of Instruction; Dr. W. D. Reeve, professor ofMathematics; Dr. S. R. Powers, professor of Science;Dr. Allan Abbott, professor of English; and Dr. ErlingHnnt, professor of Social Science. The Columbia Teach­ers College is the graduate profesional school of thatuniversity for the training of teachers and adminis­trators."We have been very interested in the New Plan as themost important educational experiment in the recenthistory of education; so we decided to come on the sceneand investigate for ourselves," declared Dr. Newlon,who is leader and spokesman of the group."Having talked with students, teachers and admin­istrators here, we feel that the University of Chicagohas done more to solve the problems of general educa­tion than any other institution," he continued, "the in­tegration of courses under the plan represents a for­ward step in American education.""Some 'new plan' must be brought to every college inorder to provide a general education program. TheChicago Plan is the most comprehensive to date," hesaid.Chicago has grown "inside out"-WirthA PIECE of research in sociology, of which anaccount follows, appears to be a very valid andthorough demonstration of a principle that isregularly observed to operate in the growth of citiesthroughout the world. Had more sociologists so care­fully aimed and considered their research, aspects ofsociology that can be scientifically determined wouldbe much more advanced than they are now.Chicago has grown "inside out" during the last 40years. Its population has continuously emptied at thecenter and settled on, the periphery, a sociological sur­vey at the University reveals. Sociologists call thisprocess the "suburban trend." LouisWirthThe study, conducted by Dr. Louis Wirth, associateprofessor of Sociology, and his. associate; �r. Richar?O. Lang, included fift�en cOUl�tJes �o�prlsmg t?e C�l­cago area nine of which are 111 Hlinois, three m WIS­consin, and three in Indiana. In 1930 the population ofthis Chicago region comprised 37 per cent of the popu­lation of the three states.Dr. Wirth and Mr. Lang report: "The most star­tling increase in population has taken place in that partof the Chicago region which immediately surrounds thecity. In 1890 this area, lying within a fifteen mile zoneof the city, contained only 22 per cent of the region'spopulation and only thirty incorporated towns, while in1930 more than half-54 per cent-of the region's popu­lation outside of Chicago lived in this area and itcontained 108 incorporated towns."If we break up this forty year period -into decadeswe find that the city proper has had a decreasing rateof growth, while the region outside the city has had anincreasing rate of rowth. In the decade, 1920·1930, forinstance, the population of the city proper grew 25 per­cent, whereas the region outside the city grew 45 percent."This is a characteristic that is true, not only of Chi­cago but of any other metropolitan region in the UnitedStates."A number of signs are apparent indicating that Chi­cago is no longer in the hectic period of rapid ex­pansion, that it is settling down as a stable city andregion. In the early history of the city, there was apredominance of young adult males who were attractedby the opportunities for industrial employment. Today,in contrast, there is a greater equalization of the sexesand the population as a whole is older. The child-rearingfamtlies are tending to escape from the city proper tothe suburbs."One of the problems for Chicago, as of other greatmetropolitan centers, is not how much bigger it cangrow, but how it can make life more livable for itspresent population which will continue to flee to thesuburbs, if present conditions and trends continue."Dr. Wiirth pointed out that the city of Cleveland hasreached '" much more advanced stage of growth thanChicago, since its suburbs, of which it has many, are nolonger growing very rapidly. Certain cities of Europehave long since ceased to grow, but the same principleof the "suburban trend" can be traced during theperiod of growth.------------------------------39400,000 Maps-EspenshadeMAP-MAKING and map-collecting, which is ofmuch significance for almost every departmentof the University but particularly in geography,geology, history, and sociology, is proceeding apace inthe fifth year of a vast program to gather 400,000 mapsand make the University the map-center of the Mid­dle West.Photography with airplane and multiple-lensed camerahas become a rapid, accurate method of securing datafor the making of maps and it is a process to whichthe University is turning in its' campaign to build upthe principal map collection in the Middle West.The University's present collection totals over 80,000maps and is already the largest collection west of theAlleghanies in this country.Meanwhile, maps are being bought by the Universityin six different countries in an effort to get a "mastermap" of the world in this country. The project, begunin 1931, is being carried on under the general directionof a faculty committee headed by Dr. H. M. Leppard,assistant professor of Geography.Only a few areas in the United States have beenmapped by aerial photography, according to EdwardEspenshade, Jr., Curator of Maps. A droning planeflying back and forth across the state of Connecticuthas photographed the entire area of the state under thedirection of state authorities. Private companies have"shot" most of southern Texas for oil enterprises."J\. tremendous impetus has been given to aerial pho­tography by the federal government, said Espenshade,"the TVA is preparing excellent maps of the entireTennessee valley from aerial photographs, and the SoilConservation Authority photographed several other im­portant localities in the country."The United States is perhaps the most poorly mappedcivilized country in the world," Espenshade added.A large number of single photographs are requiredto map any considerable area. These photographs arepasted together using only the central portion to make a"mosaic." The "mosaic" is then rephotographed, givinga permanent map of the area to any desired scale. Fromthis, accurate drafted maps can be made."These same vertical photographs," said Espenshade,"may be used in a stereoscope to show relief and to aidin plotting the contours of the land."EdwardEspenshade, Jr. The scale of an aerial photograph depends upon theheight of the plane at the time the photograph wastaken. The usual procedure is for the pilot to keephis plane at some exact altitude and at an exa�t speed,then set the camera, which is suspended ver�lCally tothe ground, for taking pictures at regula; Intervals,Besides the vertical photographs, the Ca,!adlan gov:ern-ment had developed a technique for plottm� maps fromoblique photographs in northwestern Ontario."There has recently been developed a camer.a withnine lenses which will photograph areas to all sides ofthe plane as though the plane were directly over them,"said Espenshade, "this type of camera greatly speedsup the process of photographing an area.""No Friendly Voice"IN THE writing of this history, the historian hastaken no liberties in the reporting of the events asthey happened, but has necessarily had to interpretand evalue them. This is what every historian must do.Within certain limits, there can be as many legitimatehlstorir s of a single series of events as there arehistorians. Every historian must remain as close to thetruth as possible in the recounting of the events, andhe must endeavor to make them intelligible and ex­plicable to rational men. These are the limits withinwhich historians must write.Almost without exception the events as they have beenwritten in this history have been read and approved bythose, in each case, whom they concern. Interpretationand evaluation of the events has been made in the lightof a rational analysis of the means and ends of a uni­versity. The leading exponent of rational analysis,which is the sole means by which mere information canbe converted to communicable knowledge, is PrexldentRobert M. Hutchins.Since future historians, regardless of what rationalethey employ to interpret and evaluate the series ofevents connected with the University of Chicago, willpoint to the arrival of President Hutchins as a turningpoint, for better or for worse, in the history of theUniversity, your attention is directed to a review ofsome length of his book, "No Friendly Voice."President Hutchins turns from the spoken to thewritten word for the communication of his views in anew book entitled No Friendly Voice, published Tuesday,March 17, by the University Press.No Friendly Voice is the first book written by Mr.Hutchins since he became president of the University ofChicago. It is a collection of essays which he has de­livered as public addresses between 1930 and 1936 in27 different states of the union and over national radiohookups. A drawing by Maude Phelps Hutchins illus­trates the cover. The book is dedicated to Dr. WilliamJ. Hutchins, father of President Hutchins, with this in­scription: "To the President of Berea College."First principle of "No Friendly Voice" is that theproblems of mankind can be met only by a return tothe intellect, by an abiding faith in the intellect. Firstcorollary of this first principle is that application of theintellect's reasoning power to any problem is the firsteffective step toward its solution, regardless of its natureor complexity.In the light of that principle and its corollary Presi­dent Hutchins has approached problems of law medi­cine,. �duca�ion, research, higher learning, religi�n, andadmtnistratlon by a rational analysis of means endsand errors. Rational analysis does not mean ar�chairphilosophy or cloistered "meditation severly detachedfrom reality, for President Hutchins has drawn fromhis own experience, experience of others, and the worksof the greatest minds in intellectual history.401=========-------------------========"These ideas were not original with me," he writes."If they were, they might be discredited merely bypointing out that fact."The mere reading of "No Friendly Voice" and theworks to which it refers would give the reader u. goodgeneral education.With no friendly voice, President Hutchins articulateshis unfriendliness toward "the stuffed shirt," "thosewho preach the doctrine of salvation by incantation,""the gentlemanly ways that have been discovered bybeing dishonest, indecent, and brutal," "the return ofbillingsgate to politics," "the Facist mind," and "thedecay of the national reason."With even less friendliness, President Hutchins usesa systematic exposition of the principles upon which thesearch for and communication of truth are built todesignate the errors of "anti-intellectualism of Americanuniversities which will mean an end of pure science andeducation," "universities that are mere storehouses ofrapidly aging facts," "academic boon-doggling," "thevicious specialization of the medical profession," and"the legal scholar without a legal theory."Although President Hutchins is no friend of theerrors of American education and research, his faith ineducation and its necessity for the democratic way oflife is indisputable. In the last analysis his faith is,again, in the intellect."My thesis is that in modern times we have seldomtried reason at all, but something we mistook for it;that our bewilderment results in large part from thismistake; and that our salvation lies not in the rejectionof the intellect, but in a return to it.""If research is understanding and education is under­standing and what the world needs is understanding,then education and research are what the world needs.They become at once the most significant of all possibleundertakings. They offer the only hope of salvation,the hope held out to us by the intellect of man."Since we have confused science with information,ideas with facts, and knowledge with miscellaneous data,and since information, facts, and data have not lived upto our high hopes of them, we are witnessing today arevulsion aainst science, ideas, and knowledge. Theanti-intellectualism of the nineteenth century was badenough. A new and worse brand is now arising.""The anti-intellectual position must be repudiated ifa university is to achieve its ends. Its building may besplendid, its endowment adequate, and its faculty no­table; it may have achieved unity, liberty, and clarity inits organization. Its mechanics may be perfect. It isnothing without an abiding faith in the intellect ofman."For his colleagues, the educators, President Hutchinshas re-examined the fundamental principles underlyingeducation and its relation to American society."We must accommodate the youth of the nation up totheir eighteenth or twentieth year. There is nowhereelse for them to go."If we reconsider the system of public educationfrom the elementary school through the junior college,we see that the normal child should be able to completeelementary work in six years. He should then entera secondary school which we may as well call the highschool. This unit would be definitely preparatory andnot terminal. Its work should be completed in fouryears. Some pupils might require more time, some less.The average pupil would come to the end of his sec­ondary education at sixteen."He would then enter one of two programs which should occupy four years, more or less .. One of themshould be concerned with general educatIon. The othershould provide technical or home-making training of asub-professional type for those who do not want, orwould not profit hy, a @eneral education.To his friends and colleagues, the lawyers, legalscholars, and law teachers, President Hutchins pointsthe way from chaos to order:"I suggest that if we are to understand the law weshall have to get another definition of it. I suggest th�tthe law is a body of principles and rules developed 111the light of the rational sciences of ethics and politics.The aim of ethics and politics is the good life. The aimof the law is the same. Decisions of courts may betested by their conformity to legal principles. Theprinciples may be tested by their consistency with oneanother and with the principles of ethics and pol itics"The duty of the legal scholar, therefore, is to de­velop the principles which constitute the law. It is, inshort, to formulate legal theory."President Hutchins directs the attention of his friendsin the medical profession to the works of Galen whowrote down the best in medicine the Greeks knew andwho proclaimed the value of experiment:"The central idea which Galen entertained was thatthe organism is a whole. As such it cannot be furtherdivided. The whole is not the sum of the parts. Anorganism is just that, nothing more or less. The organ­ism is a whole with the environment. It cannot be con­sidered apart from that environment. Knowledge of theenvironment is, therefore, as important as knowledge ofthe organism. Knowledge of the organism as living ismore important than knowledge of it as body. Andknowledge of the whole organism living in its environ­ment is more important than the most intimate familiar­ity with all its parts. I think you will agree that in re­spect of this central idea Galen can hardly be calledmodern at all."The development of modern medicine, though itsrecord is a grand one, has carried with it surprisinglosses in general intelligibility of subject matter, withunfortunate effects on research and practice. We see,too, that medical education, like all education has con­fused the public and drawn its attention to spectcularor trivial details."The kind of analysis which medicine has pursueddeserves all the praise it has received. But, as theRenaissance could accuse medieval medicine of beingrich in principles and poor in facts, we are now entitledto inquire whether modern medicine is not rich in factsand poor in principles."The present confusion rests on doctrinaire empir­icism, the antidote to which is the recapture of therational science or sciences that lie hidden in medicalknowledge."To those who think they are religious, PresidentHutchins recommends a return to the intellect and anattempt to achieve the highest function of the intellectwhich is faith in the proper object which is God:"No one will venture to express a doubt that themessage of Christ is more necessary to the world todaythan at any earlier period in our history."A vague, sentimental desire to do good and be gooddoes not seem to me to constitute religion. The oldmethods of emotional appeal have lost their effectiveness.I doubt if they ever had much permanent influence.Certainly they will not bring young men and womento Christ today. The appeal that mnst be made to themis the appeal to reason. A process of conversion to beworthy of that name mnst be an intellectual process.====�----------�====�-===========41Faith is intellectual assent. You will remember that St.Augustine, one of the most powerful minds of history,had for fifteen years to struggle with the intellectualproblems raised by Christianity before he could becomea Christian. The approach to God upon which youngmen and women may come to Him is not sociological oraesthetic; it is intellectual."As to what place intellectual endeavor in schools, col­leges, and universities has in the present state of thenation, President Hutchins's doubts just about balancehis hopes:"Democracy rests first on universal comprehension,to which the universities contribute through the educa­tion of teachers for the public schools and through thediscovery and communication of knowledge. Democracyrests secondly on individual leadership, not necessarilypolitical, but intellectual and spiritual as well. To thisthe universities contribute through the labors of theirprofessors and their graduates."In America we have had such confidence in democ­racy that we have been willing to support institutionsof higher learning in which the truth might be pursuedand, when found, might be communicated to our people.We have not been afraid of the truth, or afraid to hopethat it might emerge from the clash of opinion."The American people must decide whether they willlonger tolerate the search for truth. If they will,the universities will endure and give. light and leadingto the nation. If they will not, then, as a great politicalscientist has put it, we can blowout the light andfight it out in the dark; for when the voice of reason issilenced the rattle of machine guns begins."James Henry Breasted-SymphonyASERVICE in honor of Dr. James Henry Breasted,founder of the Oriental Institute at the Uni­versity, was held in 'the University Chapel, April1, at four in the afternoon. Invitations were issued bythe President's Office.Members of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra underthe direction of Dr. Frederick Stock played selectionsfrom Schubert's "Unfinished Symphony," the "PrizeSong" from Wagner's "Meistersinger," and MovementsTwo and Four from Beethoven's "Eroica" in tribute toDr. Breasted, who was one of the early orchestra en­thusiasts and an organizer of the University OrchestralAssociation which regularly brought the Chicago Sym­phony Orchestra to the call1pus.President Robert M. Hutchins read briefly from theworks and letters of Dr. Breasted-passages whichfriends of Dr. Breasted selected as most revealing ofhis character and intellect.Friends of Dr, Breasted requested that no floral tri­hutes be sent, the money that might be spent be givento charity in accordance with a sentiment Dr. Breastedvoiced during his life. They viewed the service, not asa funeral or gloomy tribute, but as a tribute to a tri­umphant life. It would have been Dr. Breasted's wishth�t, on such an occasion, his friends might gather anden.l0Y what he loved, they said.42-------PRESIDENT HUTCHINSOmCERS OF ADMINISTRATIONTHE COLLEGETHE UNIVERSITY CHAPELTHE BOARD OF TRUSTEESTHE ALUMNI COUNCILINTERNATIONAL HOUSETHE UNIVERSITY PRESSWOODCART J.YC BY BILL KI.VCPRESIDENTOF THEUNIVERSITYTHERE is some dispute on campus whether President Robert MaynardHutchins possesses the divine attributes of a saint or the devil. Animpressive section of the campus is inclined to regard the President asthe greatest personality ever associated with the University and to regardhis intellectual opponents as boobies. An equally impressive section of thecampus, while playing homage to the President's personal virtues, look to hisideas on the content of education and the procedure in research, and call forunited opposition until the happy day President Hutchins leaves the Univer­sity to become President of the United States.Those who "view with alarm" present the following propositions for con­sideration: Since the University is a community of scholars, the Universitymust necessarily be a-democratie community. If it is a democracy, then vitaldecisions should be mad� through the democratic procedure of counting nosesin opposition to a method whereby the President may use the coercive powersof his office to enact policies he deems desirable. As a consequence of thisview, it follows that the influence of the President in the appointment of newprofessors by the Board of Trustees should be subordinated to the influenceof the Department heads. In its most simple and startling form, the impliedissue presents itself as 8" choice between democracy and absolutism.Those who "point with pride" rally their forces about the Hutchinsesquephrase, "Every great advance in education has been made over the dead bodiesof countless professors." On a more serious level they point out that themethod of counting noses in order to determine educational policy is a valid·44·ROBERTMAYNARDHUTCHINSmethod insofar as the noses counted belong to people who are willing to grantthe essential validity of the President's point of view. In order to bring intoeffect the objects of that point of view, it becomes necessary for the Presi­dent to guide the Board of Trustees in their appointment of new professors.Thus the President's influence is directed toward guarding the UniversityDepartments from becoming inbred in both their personnel and in their atti­tude toward the whole content of education.What was once referred to as the Facts v. Idea controversy has reshapeditself as a problem of emphasis on the steps in the method through which manattains knowledge. If the President's emphasis on the integration of knowl­edge, supplemented by detailed research, is the "correct" point of view, thenthe President is confronted with the eternal difficulty of adjusting his meansto attain his ends. If it is true that rational men cannot disagree on a propo­sition of the speculative intellect, perhaps the malcontents will more com­pletely understand the President, the President will understand the malcon­tents, and the University will cease to be the interesting institution thatdramatic transition has made it.The further reshaping of the University was delayed this year through thedeliberate desire of President Hutchins to give the faculty a rest. The sur­vey of education in the College by two visiting professors scheduled for nextyear, may have implications which for a second time will give the University ofChicago student the "time of his life." Then will the theological question ofHutchins' divinity become even more pressing than it is now.·45WOODWARDMILLERWOELLNER MATHERFrom FILBEYAboveROBERT MAYNARD HUTCHINSPresidentFREDERIC WOODWARDVice- PresidentEMERY FILBEYROY BIXLER Dean of FacultiesDirector of AdmissionsNATHAN PLIMPTONComptrollerHARVEY DAINESAssistant ComptrollerI,LOYD STEERETreasurer and Business ManagerGEORGE FAIRWEATHERAssistant Treasurer and AssistantBusiness Manager BIXLER• • • •CHARLES GILKEYDean of the University ChapelJOHN MOULDSSecretary of the Board of TrusteesLYNDON LESCHAssistant SecretaryWILLIAM MATHERBursarERNEST MILLERRegistrarJAMES STIFLERSecretaryMcKENDREE RANEYDirector of the LibrariesFREDRICK KUHLMANAssistant Director of the Libraries·46HUTHROBERT WOELLNERExecutive Secretary, Board of VocationalGuidance and PlacementGEORGE WORKSDean of Students and University ExaminerWILLIAM H.

Toprovide a comprehensive cultural background ofgeneral education, four introductory survey cours­es were introduced in the fields of the Humanities,the Biological Sciences, the Physical Sciences, andthe Social Sciences, replacing a number of singlequarter courses in a variety of more or less segre­gated fields. Special sequence courses were alsoincluded to afford some opportunity for the pur­suit of special interests leading to advanced cours­es in the Divisions and Professional Schools. TheCollege program was designed to serve the educa­tional needs of students who do not expect to gobeyond the junior-college level as well as the needsof those who plan to do more advanced work.Apart from the reorganization of the curricu­lum, probably the most important change insti­tuted by the Chicago Plan has been the large re­sponsibility that has been placed upon the student.He is responsible for attending lectures or dis-cussion sessions, for extensive reading supplementing the lectures, for a WIse distribution of his timebetween extra-curriculum activities and .acaderni c pursuits, in fact, for directing his whole life inthe University. Realizing that the transition from high school to this plan of college work will frequent­ly be difficult, special advisers are appointed whose counsel is available to students but is not imposedupon them.·50 . Percy Boynton John KunstmannJohn Morrison The Weather BureauDebevolse and the photography classJackson of the Reynolds Williamclub working on Dr. Dack HutchinsonThe results thus far, as accurately as they ca,n be judged, have fully justified the venture. Thegeneral courses have undergone revisions from year to year, and methods of instruction have been modi­fied so that each entering class has profited by the experience of preceding years. 'Vhile still furtherchanges will be made from time to time, the ba.sic ideas underlying the program are sound, and the planas a whole is achieving to a large degree the purposes for which it was organized.Particularly striking is the degree to which students have assumed the responsibilities delegated tothem. They generally exercise good judgment in managing their educational as well as personal affairs,and in seeking counsel from the advisers in theCollege or from lecturers and discussion groupleaders when confronted with special difficulties.Normand HoerrMrs. Gillespie Louis ThurstoneHutchinsonOperation at BillingsThe idea that securing a college educationrests with the student, and that the members of thefaculty are interested in aiding him by lectures,discussions, and individual conferences to get thebest education possible, is gaining ground. Thereis consequently a commendable spirit of co-opera­tion between the faculty and the students. Thisis reflected especially in the organization of a num­ber of voluntary discussion groups and voluntaryprojects by students to which faculty members, oninvitation from the student groups, are devotingconsiderable time outside of regular lecture andconference hours.Further revisions of courses and modificationsof methods will be made as experience dictates.Faculty committees and staff members are devot­ing much time to considering changes that willmake for further improvement in the whole pro­gram. 'I1hat the plan of education in the Collegeis flexible and growing is the highest guarantee ofits success.Dean A. J. Brumbaugh51CHAPEL SPEAKERSREV.

To the student with a bent for research a moreintensive study shows a second legend on that same doubledoor. Just above the foot-high red letters appears the modestinscription, "Alumni Council," and behind that door is thequadrangular evidence of alumni activity at the Universityof Chicago.Filing cases, full of cards, telling of the present where­abouts and past performances of more than forty thousandformer Chicagoans, bigger cases filled with more intimatebiographical data on graduates since 1893, book shelvesfilled with alumni magazines and other alumnal bibliography,It completely equipped addressograph department with morethan fifty thousand plates. And scattered about among desksand typewriters and adding machines one finds the halfdozen members of the alumni office staff.One wonders just what an "Alumni Council" is. And sohe asks. He is told that the Council is the central organiza­tion of the nine alumni associations of the University-ofwhich the College Association is first in size and influence.One wonders what the Alumni Council does. And so heasks. And he is told that the Council is not only the keeper ofthe alumni records but the publisher of the University ofChicago Magazine, official organ of the alumni, which hasgone to all association members since the fall of 1908, andalso of the Alumni Bulletin which carries news of the quad­rangles to all known alumni at quarterly intervals. But theCouncil is not merely a recorder of statistics and a publisherof j ournals, On the record of the year just passed it is, veryevidently, a promotional organization. Since the spring of1935 it has sponsored the organization of several local alumniclubs, to join the ninety clubs already established, it has pro­vided faculty speakers for more than sixty club meetings, itbit., :-.taged the annual Alumni Conference with its delegatesfrom fifty outside centers, it has sponsored the June Reunionwith its class und association meetings and its general programof entertainment and education culminating in the twenty­fifth celebration of the University Sing, it has fostered stu­dent promotion through the organization of AssociateCounselors in more than two hundred communities, it haspromoted alumni giving to the University through the AlumniGift Fund, and has figures to prove that alumnigifts for the past school year will total fully$80,000. The Council once again arrangedfor the Midwinter Alumni Assembly at whichPresident Hutchins answered some fortyalumniac questions-pertinent and impertinent-regarding the University. It has during thepast year arranged for three country widebroadcasts by faculty members that alumni ineven the most distant sections might hear di­rectly from the quadrangles. In brief, it has at­tempted to interpret the University to itsalumni and provides the alumni with specificand concrete opportunities of giving service totheir Alma Mater.UNIVERSITY SINGTHE Twenty-fifth Annual University Singwas held on Saturday evening June 8,1935. S. Edwin Earle '11, presidentof the Northern Bank Note Company, who orig­inated this colorful celebration a quarter cen­tury ago, served as master of ceremonies andannounced the twenty-two fraternity groupsthat participated in the competition.For the better part of two hours the choris­ters raised their voices in song, pledging, anew,in lusty and sometimes sonorous tones theirloyalty to dear old Alpha Zeta Beta or viceversa. Two thousand men, in all, circled thefountain in Hutchinson Court. Graduates ofthe nineties made valiant effort to rememberboth words and music of odes well known athird of a century ago and undergraduatessang with gusto befitting the occasion.Ten thousand non-participants filled everycrack and crevice of Hutchinson Court, ap­plauding the efforts of the songsters. For thirtyminutes the local assembly became but a smallpart of the country wide audience that listenedin over the coast-to-coast hook up of the N a­tional Broadcasting Company. Alumni insouthern California unable to get back for re­union week joined groups in New England andin Florida in a delightful, if somewhat nostalgic,half hour of music from the quadrangles. Andwhen the last melody had been sung, there wassomething slightly reminiscent in the announce­ment that Alpha Delta Phi was winner of thequality cup and that Psi Upsilon stood firstin numbers.

He wasa believer in the power of the printed pages.Through the Press he believed that the usefulnessof the University would be enlarged and carriedto the ends of the earth. The Press, therefore,was not to be an incident, but an organic part ofthe institution.This objective President Harper set forth forthe first time, December, 1890, in his Official Bulle­tin No. 1 to the Board of Trustees. It was stilltwo years before the University would open itsdoors. The financial outlook for the entire under­taking was hazardous. Supporters of the Univer­sity were frankly dubious. Other American uni­versities, they pointed out, had concentrated andconfined their work within their own precincts.But President Harper had set his heart on es­tablishing the Press, to him it seemed the mediumthrough which the University would expand itsinfluence; and in this first official communicationto the Trustees, he went so far as to outlinefuture "University Publication Work."Throughout the period of organization andbuilding, the President clung tenaciously to his belief in the Press, until at last his enthusiasmovercame all opposition. On August 29, 1892-little more than a month before the Universityopened its doors-the Committee on Buildingsand Grounds voted to erect a temporary buildingon the site of what later became HutchinsonCourt. Purpose of the new building was to housethree -University departments for which buildingfunds had not yet been secured-the library, thegymnasium and the Press. The temporary struc­ture was finished in December. It was a one storystructure of brick, built as cheaply as possibleand without permanent foundations. The northend was fitted up as a gymnasium for women; thewestern section housed the men's gymnasium withits "best indoor running track in the West";shelves for a library were moved into the southernsection; and in a small portion of the east frontwas the printing office of the University Press.The first publication undertaken was the J our­nal of Political Economy, first issue of which ap­peared within the month, December, 1892. Thiswas followed the next month by the first issue ofthe J ourtud of Geology.It was President Harper'splan that every depart­ment of the Universityshould have a Journal forthe publication of re­search. Most of the six­teen scholarly journalsnow published by the Uni­versity of Chicago Pressdate from those earlydays, but newer depart­ments which have been es­tablished in recent yearshave followed the traditionand founded a J ourn al.Youngest of them all isthe University of ChicagoLaw Review, begun in1933. The Journals, editedDONALD BEANAMOS BISHOP·57·by faculty members and published by the Press,are:THE ASTROPHYSICAL JOURNALTHE BOTANICAL GAZETTETHE JOURNAL OF BUSINESSCLASSICAL PHILOLOGYTHE INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ETHICSTHE JOURNAL OF GEOLOGYTHE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO LAW REVIEWTHE LIBRARY QUARTERLYTHE JOURNAL OF MODERN HISTORY:MODERN PHILOLOGYPHYSIOLOGICAL ZOOLOGYTHE JOURNAL OF POLITICAL ECONOMYTHE JOURNAL OF RELIGIONTHE AMERICAN JOURNAL OF SEMITIC LANGUAGESAND LITERATURESTHE SOCIAL SERVICE REVIEWTHE AMERICAN JOURNAL OF SOCIOLOGYIn December, 1900, John D. Rockefeller sub­scribed the necessary funds for the present Pressbuilding. The cornerstone was laid in June thefollowing year as part of the University's tenthanmversary program. Six months before theDecennial celebration started, President Harperannounced the first important publications of theUniversity Press ... three volumes of work bycampus scholars to be issued in honor of the an­niversary. The first book was to be an externalhistory of the University during its first ten years;the second, a history of the work of individualofficers and departments; and the third, a volumeof contributions from representatives of va rrousdepartments to be prepared in honor of the oc- easton. So many and so valuable were the manu­scripts turned in at this time, that the number ofvolumes in the series was expanded to twenty-eightinstead of three!The publication of these volumes was a seriousfinancial loss which threatened the very existenceof the Press. The venture did succeed in callingthe attention of the educational world to the dis­tinctive research of the scholars at the new Mid­way institution. The first catalogue of the Uni­ver sity of Chicago Press was issued February 1,1901. It carried the titles of some one hundredand thirty volumes. The 1935-36 catalogue car­ries more than one thousand titles.In many cases these books, whose publicationis highly desirable, do not yield a profit and arenot expected to do so. Of chief importance hasalways been the intrinsic worth of each publica­tion, determined by the Board of University Pub­lications, representing all the Divisions ofSchools of the University. Contributions in allfields except fiction may be submitted. 'iVhen amanuscript is submitted, it goes first to GordonJ. Laing, General Editor of the Press. He rejectsa t once anything not suitable for the Press list;anything that seems appropriate he submits toa specialist in the field, whose duty it is to readthe manuscript and report Oil it. Reports aregenerally made by members of the University, butsometimes a manuscript is sent to some one belong­ing to the faculty of another institution. Thereader presents his report to the Gen­eral Editor who turns it over to theCommittee on Publications, which con­sists of eight members of the Board.This committee, in turn, reports to theBoard of University Publications, whichhas the power to accept or rej ect it.Members of this board a.re :Leonard V. KoosEzra J. KrausErnest 'V. PuttkammerWilliam M. HandallBernadotte E. SchmittT. V. SmithMartin SprenglingOtto Struve,J acob VinerGilbert A. BlissWilliam D. HarkinsRollin D. HemensThorfin H.

BeanCharles H. BeesonShirley J. CaseRollin T. ChamberlinRonald S. CraneEdward A. DuddyNewton Edwards·Ellsworth FarisHenry Gordon GaleFacilities of the Press are open not only to themembers of the University of Chicago but to allinstitutions and scholars. As soon as a manu­script has been approved by the Board the Pressproceeds to make financial arrangements for itspublication. The ar rangernents vary with the book.Some books are published on Press funds; somethrough subsidies provided by the University oranother institution; and some by special fundsallocated to scholarship and research. Once thefinancing is assured, the book must be edited,planned typographically, manufactured, adver­t.isc.], distributed, and sold.Mr. Laing, former dean of the Humanities di­vision, has served as General Editor of the Presssince 1908. Donald P. Bean is Manager of thePublication department; Amos "T. Bishop isSuperintendent of the Manufacturing depart­ment. Mr. Bean assumed his managership on thedeath of Newman Miller, January 1919. Mr.Bishop succeeded A. C. McFarland, who retiredMay 1, 1935, after thirty-five years in office.The first report published by the Board of Pub­lications was for the year 1910-11. Thirty-sevenbooks were issued by the Press that year; and thetotal book sales amounted to $36,596. The larg­est number of books ever published by the Pressin one year was 132 (in 1931-32 and agam !l11932-33); the largest sale was in 1930c31,amounting to about $400,000.For the manufacture of hooks, the Pressbuilding houses five cylinder presses, six mono­type machines and other printing equipment.Among the type faces in the matrix departmentare many rare fonts, some of them available no­where else in the United States. These are Egyp­tian hieroglyphics, Classical Greek, Classical Hebrew, Inscription Greek, Coptic, Nestol�ianSyriac, Arabic, Ethio pic, Russian, mathematIcaland astronomical fonts, and Schwabacher (mod­ernized German).Each new volume is designed and handled inan entirely different manner, according to thegroup for which it is intended. Medicine andmusic, bacteriology and Sanskrit ... every fieldof endeavor is represented by the thousand oddtitles in the current catalogue. Some of the im­portant publications are concerned with theoriesand methods of teaching. Henry C. Morrison'sThe Practice of Teaching in the Secondary Schoolintroduced the unit-plan of teaching and has be­come a classic of methodology. In addition to itsimportant educational contributions, the Press haslong been noted for beauty of design and formatand for precision of typography. In 1904 thePress received its first official recognition in thisfield, when it was awarded the grand prize at theSt. LOllis Wor-ld's Fair. Most recent of its trib­utes was the selection of Highlights of Astronomyby Professor Walter Bartky, as one of the fiftyoutstanding books of the year 1935 by the Ameri­can Institute of Graphic Arts.Among the most beautiful of the Press publica­tions are the three volumes of the Hoclceteller-M c­Cormick New Testament, edited by Edgar J.Goodspeed and priced at $50.00; John C. Fergu­son's Chinese Pninting ($1 :2.50) :, Szukalski's Pro­jects in Design ($20.00) ; and the newly publishedAncient Egypti(tn Paintings by Davies and Garcli­ncr ($50.00). This last named is one of the manysplendid publications in the Oriental Instituteseries.The Press's "best seller" is Edgar J. Good­speed's The Scw Testament, An American Trans­lation of which more than 100,000 copies havebeen sold. Similar enthusiasm has greeted thepublication of The Bible, An American Transla­tion by Dr. Goodspeed and the late J. M. P.Smith, published this year in a popular edition.The most important of this year's publicationsare the New Plan texts, designed for the orienta­tion courses in science at the University of Chi­cago. These texts, carrying the principles of theNew Plan in education, are being adopted bymany other institutions throughout the country.They come as heralds of a new day in textbookdesign, their formats planned to attract the stu­dent, their texts written in informal lecture style.Well printed in modern type and bound in a gaycolorful manner, they look nothing like the old­fashioned school book. The covers have been de­signed to express the ide� of the content; th=jackets are brilliant in color; the illustrationsare profuse, and range from the comic to thetechnically dignified.These New Plan texts are: Harvey BraceLemon's From Galileo to Cosmic Rays; ReginaldStephenson's Exploring in Physics; Highlights ofAstronomy by Walter Bartky; A MathematicianExplains by Mayme 1. Logsdon; Story of thePlant Kingdom by Merle C. Coulter; Man andthe Vertebrates by Alfred S. Romer; Down toEarth by Carey Croneis and William C. Krum­bein; and Chauncey S. Boucher's The ChicagoCollege Plan, the story of the New Plan itself.Most important forthcoming publication is ADictionary of American English, a monumentalwork which has been in the process of compilationsince 1925 under the editorship of Sir WilliamCraigie, with the collaboration of Professor JamesR. Hulbert and a staff of American scholars.Part I is about to be published. The completeDictionary will comprise between 20 and 25 Parts,which will be issued at intervals throughout aperiod of years.A unique "publication" is a series of talkingmotion pictures. Twelve of these sound films havealready been released in the fields of Geology andthe Physical Sciences and ten more films in thefields of Astronomy, Physics and Chemistry arein production. Produced in collaboration withErpi Picture Consultants, these talking picturesha ve the advantages of excellent technical produc-·60· tion and accurate scientific direction by Univer­sity professors. Harvey Brace Lemon and Her­man 1. Schlesinger supervised the physics andchemistry films; Carey Croneis directed the geol­ogy films. They are being widely adopted in highschools, colleges and universities.The Press started without capital. It has re­ceived only two lar:ge benefactions: a generousdonation for its building and equipment (1901);and a generous publishing fund made by the LauraSpelman Rockefeller Memorial Fund in 1926. Thisfund supplemented the regular publishing fundsand enabled the Press to publish an outstandinglist of reports on original research.Instead of being a serious drain on the Univer­sity's resources, the Press has been largely self­supporting and the research of the institution hasbeen published at a very small cost.The four maj or functions of the UniversityPress are to :Publish the results of original research andscholarship for the benefit of specialists.Publish new in terpreta tions of scientificknowledge for the more casual reader.Publish new pedagogical theory and text­books exemplifying new method.Publish the proceedings and reports oflearned organizations and societies.A recently established service of the Press is itsManuscript Bureau for placing manuscripts ofscholars with commercial publishers, when the sub­j ect matter is of sufficient general interest to war­rant commercial publication. These manuscriptsmust first be approved by the Board of Publica­tions in the same manner as if the book were goingto be published by the Press itself; and when thebook is issued, it bears the j oint imprint of theUniversity of Chicago Press and of the commercialpress. by whom it was actually published. Amongthe books published in this manner are: the bestseller, r ou Must Relax by Edmund Jacobson;Beyond Conscience by T. V. Smith; Insecurity andTVar by Harold D. Lasswell; Political Power byCharles E. Merriam; Imperialism and the PrioaieInvestor b_y Eugene Staley; War and Diplomacyin the Japanese Empire by Sterling Takeuchi andConsider the Heauens by Forrest Ray Moulton.The principal co-operating publishers to date havebeen McGraw-Hill and Doubleday, Doran.Such are the different phases of the service ofthe Press, the purpose of which is to communicateto the public but more particularly to all studentsand scholars, the result of the investigations ineducation, science and scholarship carried on inthe classrooms, laboratories and libraries of ourown and other universities.'/�"o�;oQ�;«·'/�&.i.,&.i.,\ "*' :�&.i.,S'ome eampu� ..ceade�� i :)'/�..�o� ;oQ� ;<.('/�&,'-1&,'-1""&,'-1QSENIORS• Remember• • • • •M'A Y fifth, 193:3, ... the fir-st Interclu b Ball at the Congress Hotcl?Much dutch and many women ...

I have ,'wen life hom all angles; til rough11Iy books, through society, through act.ivi tics a u d through athletics. I can look back and say "In mytime there we re such men as Barden, one of the fine,.;t of college newspaper editors; Berwanger, outstandingAll-American football star; Ha.ar-low, oubtanding basketball star; Ellinwood," and so on arid on.On the other side of the ledger has been the adverse criticism in the form of Charles Vlalgrcen's at.l ack011 the University as a "hotbed of communism," It was all good fun, and as we came out on top we may thankMr. IValgreen for all the merriment and .i o kcs we had ... at his expcnse.Intellectually, the University has been stimulating. It has broadened my outlook on life; it has made lifea lot more worth while living. It has given me contact with a vital world of knowledge and has introduced meto such 1I1en as 'I'ho rut ou Wilder, Charles Breasted, Robert Hutchins, Percy Boynton, and llIany more.Spiritually, the University has given me more than anyone 01' anything ever could. It has taught me tomeet people, to accept them, and it has above all ginn me some true standards of living. The knowledge Ihave absorbed here will give Ii1C the )lower to keel' faith with m)' fellowmen in the wo rld which I Hill about toenter. Above all I have learned hOII' to face the p roblr rus which will confront me.Socially, the Univcrsi+y has givcn me true and la'iting friendships with both men and women. Amongthese friendships arc some with profc,;:o;ors-mcn who have helped me learn to think for myself and for that gifthom them I am truly grateful. I have acquired gay, light�llearted friends who are lots of fun to be with, andI have a l-.o gained the friendship of scvcr al quiet, thoughtful, but brilliantly interesting people. I have learnedthe int ricacic- of IVa"hingtoJl PI'OIIIS, ::\Jilitary Balk fraternity parties, Chicago nightclubs, and Ida Noyesuux cr- I Ann I've loved each and enry one of them.It hasn't been all ro ses , and there have been times when I was icad v to throw it all oyer, but somehow, some­tIling or soruco nc always managed to come along at the right time.So as I look back on those foul' vcu.rs , and pinch myself to be sure t hcv'r'c rca Ily almost over I feel just alittle rcmo rse that I didn't do better. I'm glad t lia t I'm graduating but I hate to leave the old place. It sortof groll',s on one, and I've come to love it dca rl v. And though I leave its buildings, the University will Jive onahl a."" in n i v heart a,s tlle dono I' of Illy kno\\'ledge, and the object of my gratitude.SeniorClassPresidentJOHN JACOB BERWANGERSENIOR CLASS COMMITTEEJEANNE STOLTEEDITH McCARTHYCYNTHIA GRABOWILLIAM STAPLETONWALTER W. HAMBURGER, JR.ROBERT LEACHRAVONE SMITHRICHARD ADAIRALTHOUGH the Class spirit of the old days is almost entirely gone, nowthat juniors and sophomores can graduate as easily as seniors, andalthough the plans for a second FANDANGO could not go throughsuccessfully due to restrictions from the Dean's office, we of the graduatingclass of 1936 still found time to have several good pep sessions before the foot­ball games, to participate in the moustache race, and to hold a senior class day.The time has passed when classes will perpetuate their name in bronze tabletsor stone benches, and now that the University has gained those traditions, wefeel our best gift to the school can be our undying loyalty and our efforts toget better all-around students by providing money for scholarships.JAY BERWANGER.·67·SENIORSlII·68· Philip AbramsChicago, Ill.BusvnessKNPhoenix 1-4, Business Mgr. 3,oj.; Blackfriars 2-3; FreshmanBasketball and Baseball; Fan­dango 3; Upperclass Counsellor2-4.Robert AdairChicago, Ill.Intramurals 1-4; Senior Chair­man; Hockey 3-4; Blackfriars1-2; R.

ROBERTVALENTINEMERRILLSomething exceptional in the University's plan ofrunning convocations is the ob�'iation of the need for amad scramble after one's own diploma after the award­ing of the diploma has taken place. This economy ofeffort is directly attributable to the Aides and l\larshals,who see that the diplomas are properly arranged forpresentation to the graduates, that the graduates arekept correctly in line to receive the diplomas as ar­ranged, and that the diplomas of absentees are removedfrom the list.In addition to their services at convocations, theAides and Marshals officiate at University receptions;they entertain visitors to the University; they serveduring freshman orientation wcck ; they make them­selves generally of service otherwise. One of the guestswhom Aides and Marshals of the time will long remem­ber is H. R. H. the Prince of "r ales, who visited theUniversity some seven or eight years ago.Each year at the Interfraternity Sing, followingthe sing proper, the President of the University ap­points the Aides and Marshals for the coming ycar.They are selected for their scholarship and participa­tion in extra-curricular activities.Leaders of the organizations are Cynthia Graboand Robert Ebert who with the help of Robert Valen­tine Merrill, Marshal of the University, have succeededin developing the group as a unit, and in directing thegreat services done at University functions by the indi­vidual Aides and Marshals.

N. METCALF in late February.He said, in part, "The future ofAthletic Director intercollegiate athletics at Chicagodepends partly on what the Uni­versity does and partly on whatother institutions do. The University will be con­sistent. It will not depart from its principles togain athletic success. It will not subsidize athletes;it will not discriminate against them. To theextent to which other institutions in this regionadopt the principles of the University of Chicago,this University will be more and more successful inintercollegiate competition. If other universitiesdo not adopt these principles, the University ofChicago can hope to be no more successful in thefuture than it has been in the past. It is my be­lief that in spite of the temporary setbacks pro­duced by the depression, the general trend istoward the adoption of the practices of the U ni­versity of Chicago, and that the future of inter­collegiate athletics at the University is brighterthan it has been."The general athletic policy as maintained bythe athletic department holds that participatingin intercollegiate athletics is considered a worth­while activity for undergraduates and a rewardfor maintaining a satisfactory academic standing.Under this policy the opportunity to participatein athletics is considered, not a service which theathlete renders the University, but a privilegewhich the University permits the athlete to enjoy.There are no squad cuts on Maroon teams. Allcandidates are welcomed regardless of ability orprevious experience. There is no ballyhooing ofstar athletes for publicity purposes or to aug­ment gate receipts.ShaughnessyChannon andGreenebaum McGillivray MerriamFootballcoaching staffMerriamDoc ShannonAfter a track meetFootball banquet Van BoskirkMcCarthyNorgren110 .CHEERLEADERSTHE Maroon cheerleadersthis year broke a traditionof long standing when theychanged from the sedate actionsw hie h characterized previouscheerleaders and used a routinewhich included acrobatics. As inother years tryouts were held byhead cheerleader, Jay Brown, andCoach w all y Hebert, and threemen, John Newby, Bob Simon,and Bob Eisenstein were chosen toassist Jay in leading the cheers.These with the help of five gymnas­tic tumblers, Russ Baird, EmeryFair, Dal Stauffer, Ted Kolb, andBob Scanlan began working assoon as school opened. Cheerlead­ing thus rather than being thedrab movements of a few more orless dignified fellows became atumbling exhibition with a fewcheerleaders who kept the crowd intime to the cheers. Probably thebest stunt which they did was the"sky rocket" yell in which fourmen were turning somersaults inthe air at once. Therefore, notonly serving the crowd as yell lead­ers, but also entertaining themwith D. L. Hoffer's teachings, be­fore the game, at half time, andduring long time-out periods, thesquad for the first time got a realbacking by the grandstands. It isa sincere hope that the new combi­nation of acrobatics and cheer­leading will become as much a tra­dition as the old form was. Foras certainly as our pre v i 0 u sgroups were the deadest in theBig Ten just as certainly did thisyear's squad build up a reputationof being the conference's liveliestand most interesting bunch.

The Ma­roon's ability to show some­thing in the toughest of go­ing - rocking the ScarletScourges of Ohio State backon its heels for three quar­ters, putting down a stub­born Wisconsin team by a sixpoint win, ringing down inthe season's finale with a vic­tory over a jinx Illinoistroupe-kept the team's fol­lowers wondering what wouldCLARK SHAUGHNESSY happen next, and providedample display of real "Ma-Maroon Coach roon fight" in a small squad,handicapped throughout theentire campaign with injuriesto key men. Mixed in withthese high spots were twopretty low points-bad defeats by the Boiler­makers and Indiana. But Maroon followers willnever forget the season because it marked the closeof the brilliant career of the finest of Chicago'smodern greats-Captain Jay Berwanger, the All-American back. * * *In the privacy of his practice field Coach ClarkShaughnessy fitted the best of his available ma­terial into the exacting assignments of his tail backsystem. He geared his scoring machine around theabilities of his captain, Jay Berwanger. He fash­ioned the supporting cast from returning let­termen, and as the season progressed filled in hisweaker spots with the most promising sophomores.To fill a gaping hole at center, Sam Whiteside wasshifted over from his guard position ; Jordan andMeigs returned as the guards; Bush, 'Wright andSappington filled up for the tackles; and Giller­lain, G. Petersen, and Perretz took care of the endpositions. With Captain Berwanger in the back­field were Duke Skoning at full, and Bartlett andNyquist at the halves. Soon Fareed, Fitzgeraldand Lehnhardt showed enough ability to warrantfrequent substitution into the regular backfield.Skoning after Jankowski(Wisconsin)Time out (Indiana)Bartlett-A studyBerwanger going through(Wis.)W aiting- W atching-Not through here!

The Ma­roons matched those Cornhuskers in yardsgained and first downs; but failed quitemiserably in points.

The third-stringers couldn't stop theTeachers in the final period, and the score ended at31-6. During most of the game Coach Shaugh­nessy experimented with his first two teams tryingto solve his combination difficulties. The highlightof the fray was the moment Merritt Bush, massiveand masterful left tackle, shifted weak side, mak­ing him an eligible pass receiver, and lumberedover the goal line to take a short toss from Ber­wanger for the first and last six points in his Ma­roon career.After carefully pointing for their traditionalenemies, the Purdue Boilermakers, the Maroonsgot entangled with both a better team and an "off­day." Either difficulty would probably have prov­en sufficient but the double portion handed Purduea clean 19-0 win. For fifteen minutes the Maroonsplayed a good game rushing the Purdue kicker,smothering line plays, keeping Purdue bottled upin its own territory. But in the second quarterPurdue found their opportunity and marchedaway. Speedy, powerful, and precise the Boiler­makers dominated the latter half of the game.Chicago evened its Conference record, as it fin­ished the first month of the campaign by pushingout a 13-7 victory over the Wisconsin Badgers.A mistake by the Badger quarterback enabled theMaroons to score. Wisconsin with its punter deepin the end zone tried an end run with a fancy lat­eral attached. The run stopped abruptly whenMaroon tacklers swarmed in, and the lateral wentsadly and highly into the air, to drop into Maroonhands on the two yard marker. Berwanger scored.The second touchdown was well-earned. Ber­wanger and Fareed, a sophomore of Shaugh­nessy's, teamed up for running plays and somepassing by Fareed topped off the exhibition. Thekick was good for the point. Wisconsin got itstouchdown on a short drive after a poor Maroonpunt. Later they threatened again, but the Ma­roons settled down to work and took the ball away.Farced's work in the game earned him a. berth atright halfback.For two weeks the Maroons worked steadily,forming a defense for the tricky attack of thepowerful, punishing Ohio State outfit. Shaugh­nessy sent his boys into that game ready and ingood shape. For three quarters the Maroons with­s too d the bruising power of the always-fresh Ohiocleven, holding grimly to their two touchdowns.Prescott JordanFred LehnhardtHarmon MeigsWilliam GiIlerlainWarren SkoningKendall Petersen Clarence WrightRobert FitzgeraldEarl SappingtonRobert Shipway Samuel WhitesideOmar FareedWilliam BosworthNed BartlettNelson ThomasWoodrow Wilson114 .115 FOOTBALLIn the fourth they weakened enough to allow OhioState to slip through with five minutes to sparefor a close 20-13 victory.The game belonged to Ohio State in the middleof the field, but once with their toes digging intotheir own twenty yard line those Maroons were adifferent team, and time after time that openinghalf they stopped the beautiful attack cold withtheir specially designed defense. Who will forgetwhen Ohio State was on the Crimson three yardline, first down and three more to go? Or fourdowns later when it was Chicago'S ball still 11 yardfrom the goal line ? A blocked kick by Bush, play­ing the greatest game of his career, in the secondperiod on Ohio State's twenty-three yard line gavethe Maroons their first chance. Berwanger led asmooth, inspired attack. Eight plays brought thetouchdown, and Berwanger added the point fromplacement.Early in the second half the Maroons stoppedone drive on their own fifteen. On the next play,Berwanger swept wide to his right; hemmed in bya swarm of tacklers, he cut back beautifullythrough tackle, crossed over and swung towardthe sideline with the safety man heading him off.Slowing to attempt to trick the safety, Berwangerallowed a half to sweep in from the side. Betweenthe two they pinned him into the sideline-ap­parently. But, going almost full speed, Berwangerat the last split second stopped just inside thesideline, and crossed back into the open again,leaving the two men grasping vainly at the air.He dodged about one interferer for the next sixtyBerwanger going in(Western State)Crowds!

He was not a specialist. He could run, pass, kick, tackle,plunge, and block equally well. He was deadly in an open field.He was a team player. Lastly, he had that football instinct,tha t intangible ability to do the right thing at just the right time.For three years he was the backbone of the Maroon team. Inhis sophomore year he played the full sixty minutes of each Con­ference game, bearing the brunt of the offense and more than hisshare of the defense. He totaled 672 yards from scrimmage andscored eight touchdowns, adding seven points after touchdownfor 55 points. In the final game of the season he outgained theentire Illinois team. Chosen by his team as their most valuableplayer, he was picked by the coaches as the All-Conference half­back.As a junior, Berwanger entered the portals of the "footballgreat" when Grantland Rice pronounced him the outstandingback in the country. Injuries which kept him from play in theOhio State game barred him from All-American selections for aplayer is not considered who does not participate in each sched­uled game. During a beautiful exhibition against Purdue, Ber­wanger was injured, an injury which forced him to watch fromthe sidelines while the team played Ohio State. Back in thelineup against Minnesota, he had little success working in the faceof the Gopher scoring waves. Sluggish after these poundings,neither the team nor Berwanger could function against Illinois.Statistics again showed his all-around abilities with a 3.5yards gain from scrimmage per try, better than forty yards foreach kick, a high completed pass average, and plenty of touch­downs to his individual credit. The outstanding performance ofthe year was his ninety-eight yard kickoff return through the en­tire Indiana team for a touchdown.Again he was placed on the All-Conference team. Of his threeyears Berwanger's senior year was undoubtedly his best. He ledthe team to victories over Wisconsin and Illinois, and came closeto a great triumph over the crack Ohio State team-declared asone of the nation's best. His 85-yard dash through the OhioState team ranks as one of the greatest individual runs of all time.Into those twenty seconds Berwanger crowded all his ability,every trick he knew, all he had learned from the game.Berwanger hung up his famous "99" after personally conduct­ing Chicago to a narrow 7-6 triumphover the jinx Tllini. This time it washis 48-yard punt return that enabledthe team to win, though his offensiveslashes into the Illini forward wallwere good for constant yardage. Cheering the team to victoryWorried visitors CrowdsInterested sidelinersThe "c" banquet116·ALL-AMERICANThis year he was placed on every All-Americanteam, the only all All-American in the country.He received the Fairbanks trophy, given annuallyto the football player most valuable in intercol­legiate competition in America. Grantland Ricein his choice said briefly, "Jay Berwanger of Chi­cago was the ablest all-around back of the entiregroup." The Conference Coaches awarded himthe Tribune trophy as the most valuable man tohis team in the Conference.'Vhat better tribute can be offered than thatgiven by his coach, Clark Shaughnessy. "He'ssix feet in height and weighs 190 pounds. He'severy football coach's dream player. From thefirst day he reported for practice until his lastgame he never gave me an anxious moment. Heloves to play, and is one of the hardest workers Iever saw. Sometimes a star player is willing togo through the training ,grind but wants to loafin practice. I had to hold Berwanger back. Hewanted to do too much."On the field he was a team man. He alwayssacrificed himself for the good of the team. Thepast season we didn't have a quarterback, so heagreed to call signals too, and he did a better thanfair job of it."I rate him as the greatest ball-carrier in theworld, bar none, collegiate or professional. Inever saw a player take more punishment andstand up under it without whimpering. In thePurdue game last year hewas hurt on the first play,but didn't say a wordabout it. He played theentire game, and led 0111'offense which just fellshort of victory. I neverlearned until after thegame that he had beenhurt at all. I hate to loseBerwanger."Jay gets off a punt ..

He fell,exhausted, over the goal line for six points-afterone of the greatest runs in the history of foot­ball, with a howling vortex of sound rolling downupon him in appreciation.Ohio State finally scored a few minutes later.As the third period closed they scored again on aleg-weary crew of Maroon lads, wondering dazedlyhow any team could possess such everlasting re­serve power. With the score tied up at 13-13,the two teams battled for ten minutes before freshJumping Joe Williams slipped through tackle andscooted twenty yards for the winning points withthe Maroons wearily trying to catch up.The expected let-down trapped Chicago the fol­lowing Saturday, and Indiana went right throughfor four touchdowns with all the trimmings. Ber­wanger, injured, was unable to produce that driv­ing spark though playing in fashion most of thegame. Fareed was in the hospital. Consequentlythe team couldn't get under W!1y and bowed out tothe audience at Stagg field a bit worn out. TheHoosiers were a well-trained, hard-hitting teamwith plenty in reserve and they certainly deservedvictory that day.Practically the entire campus moved shop intoUrbana the next week-end to see the Maroonsclose against their jinx opponents, Zuppke's Illini.It was the last game of the season, the finale ofthe Maroon captain-Jay Berwanger. From theopening gun the game belonged to Jay. His matesto the last man were there to see that he got it;and the crowd was there to see him take it. Al­though the game had its jittery moments, playwas clearly in favor of the Maroons all the way.Berwanger constantly led an attack upon theIllini goal throughout the initial half. Illinoisand its lanky star half, Les Lindberg, were mostunsuccessful in running plays. But with timeshort to the half Lindberg tossed a flat pass wideto the sidelines to a little speedster, Grieve, whocaught the ball, sped down the sideline to score.The point was blocked by a wedge of bodies. Anintercepted lateral almost cost Chicago its game,on the last play of the first half. The intercepterwas knocked out of bounds by Bush and Ber­wanger in one those high-low affairs, just threefeet short of Maroon disaster.Heading into the wind the Maroons drove re­peatedly into Jllini territory the second half onlyto be stopped repeatedly. Each time Lindberg,standing on or near his own goal line, coollypunted high with the wind back to midfield. WithZuppke's ends waiting when the ball came down,Berwanger was helpless. In the middle of thefinal period the ends were just five yards too slow.Berwanger caught the punt on the fifty yard lineand headed upfield. In direct contrast to the118 Ohio State run which was an example of beautifulrunning, dodging and twisting, of excellent co­ordination between all line men and back field, ofa play succeeding through perfect execution, theIllini run was one of brute strength, of straightplowing, of one man against a team. The firstend to hit Berwanger fell to the ground uncon­scious. Jay's momentum was sufficient to shakeoff the second end. Knees high, arm stiff, headdown, Jay drove through a closing group of four,emerged and left them strewn along his path. Hebroke into the clear on the twenty and began topick up speed. The safety man cut across hardand dove for him on the five yard marker. Hisclawing hands barely hit Berwanger's flying heels.The impact was enough to send Berwanger stum­bling into the ground just three yards short ofthat needed touchdown. His momentum was suchthat he slid far across the line. He gave Skoningtwo chances at that six points, and then crackedright through the middle for his touchdown. Heremoved his helmet, stepped back ten yards be­hind his forward wall, and booted the ball safelybetween the posts for the seventh and winningpoint.Chicago then took the ball deep into Illinoisterritory and kept it there for the rest of thegame. When Illinois got the ball, their groundgaining useless, they resorted to passing. Threepasses were intercepted by Nyquist to put a finalstop to even that attack. Lenhardt did some neatplunging that day-his best of a good season,while Skoning gained more ground through centerthan the entire Illinois team.Meeting as a group for the last time, the Ma­roon squad elected as co-captains for 1936, SamWhiteside, big center who was out much of theseason with a badly torn leg, and Bud Jordan, thedependable guard.MAJOR "C" WINNERSNed BartlettJay BerwangerCaptainMerritt BushErnest DixOmar FareedRob Fitzgerald Bill GillerlainBud JordanFred LehnhardtHarmon MeigsEwald NyquistBob PerretzGordon Petersen Earl SappingtonDuke SkoningSam WhitesideNelson ThomasPaul WhitneyEd Wolf ens onClarence WrightOLD ENGLISH "C" WINNERSBill BosworthVictor Jones Stanley Marynoski Sonny SchuesslerKendall Petersen Bob ShipwayFRESHMAN NUMERAL WINNERSChuck BanfeWilliam BertholfJim CasselsBob CasselsTheodore FinkMort GoodsteinBob GreenebaumLew HarnitvMax Hawkins Art Jaffee\1ITilbur JergerBob JohnsonClaude KirchnerKruegerHarvey LawsonJohn MahonyJim MeigsMarty Pincetl Dave RogersRobert SassSolly ShermanAl TullyEd ValorzDick WheelerFrank WilkesHaarlow sinks an overhead shot Bill Ha ar-IowBill Lang A marl scram LIeAmundsen's 6' 8" conquers Gordon PetersenVarsity squadTop Row-Norgren, Phillips, K.

BASKETBALLCOACH ?\'els Norgren's 19:35-1936 Maroo nbasketball team didn't win a single Con­ference game. To bcgll1 with Norgrenhad one man capable of giving Bill Haarlow,his ace sharpshooter, Hny kind of offeusi vc sup­port, Bill Lang. When Lang had his shoulderdislocated in a rough Michigan game here in rnid­season, Norgren's last hopes for a Conferencevictory moved off the floor with the inj u rcd Lang.To complete the team, he turned mainly to a groupof promising, but green, sophomores that ran hotand cold throughout the long campaign, none ofthese men being quite capable as a real scoringthreat to take the attention o If Ha a rlow. Theother returning Ict.termen worked hard, but justdidn't do much better than the sophomores.Chicago opened its season with some close Con­ference battles, but it soon became apparent to itso pponent.s that Ha.arlow was the only real threat,and planned concentration forced Haarlow tocount the points he made on very difficult shotsfrom all conceivable angles. Lang was shiftedfrom his gual'([ post up to the other Fo rwa rdberth to serve as a running mate for Haa rlow innil effort to inject added scoring power into theoffense. He stood up excellently in individual"coring and general ail-around play until his in­j u ry forced him out to the sidelines for the season,i ust at the half\l ay point. The rest of the squadnil possessed marked weaknesses,Paul Amundsen, lanky sophomore center, im­I:roved with the season, but never developed intothe point-maker he was expected to become. Fitz­gerald and Kendall Petersen, a pair of sophomore119 'BASKETBALLg'lIarcis, soon took oyer the starting berths with afair brand of ball, but they yet lacked that muchneeded essential, ability to hit the basket fromlong range to draw out' the defense into the open,John Eggemeyer, a sophomore with a fine basketeye, improved steadily in his floor play after hetook over Lang's forward spot, but had a longroad to travel. His final game-the Northwesterntilt-\\'as a fine performance, netting twelve pointsand very nearly the game.Gordon Petersen, a letterman back at center,alternated with Amundsen at the pivot spotthroughout the season, but lacked enough heightto gain the ccnt.er jump and the polish to makehim valuable. The crowd loved him, nevertheless,for his earnestness and his fighting spirit. JimGordon, stocky sophornore floor man, didn't getin on account of eligibility difficulties until Janu­ary, and then couldn't crack the regular lineup.He was hampered with a lack of height and experi­ence, and had a trick knee to complete his troubles.Dave LeFevre, a letterman at guard, took oyerone of the guard posts late in the season, but wasa good defensive man at his limit. Rossin, an­other of the sophomores, got a shot at a guardposition in the last two games of the season withfait, results. Fast and willing, he lacked heightand a long-range basket eye, as did the other be­fore him.VVith little preliminary practice, the Maroonsopened their season in December against De Paul'scrack veteran outfit and went down -:1<5-25. Threeclays later they dropped a single point game toMarquette up in Milwaukee, in the very last min­ute of play on a free toss. Three easy warm-upgames then got the team into actual running or­der. They disposed of Whea ton 41-24, Armourat 51-49, the season's high in points, and Carrollat 41-25, all before the holidays.After the vacation the Maroons opened theirConference slate with a bitter struggle againstthe '¥isconsin Badgers.

From beginning to end, his group demand­ed recognition as one of the outstanding teams inthe Big Ten. The Maroons finished that springcampaign in a tie for second place, as Minnesotarode through on a six game crest to win the Con­ference flag. They combined solid hitting, de­pendable defensive work, heads-up base running,and excellent pitching to produce twelve victoriesagainst five defeats for the season.Coach Anderson made several shifts in indi­vidual assignments in lining up his winning com­bination. Bill Haarlow, who as a sophomoreplayed shortstop, was sent over to first base, wherehis steady play obtained for him a permanentposition. Ed Tyk stepped into the second basespot in brilliant fashion. Dick Cochran, an out­fielder by earlier trade, was moved into the infieldat shortstop while stocky little K ruzic roundedout a dependable combination at third. RalphWehling, captain of theteam, and Dave Levin,remained in left fieldand center field. Tak­mg over right fieldwas speedy, hard-hit­ting Harry Na.cey, asophomore.

Dave Levin was outstanding for('hicago, scoring a pair of runs, getting one hit,stealing three bases, and making a one-handedcatch of Moyer's deep drive to center in the thirdto rob the Illinois boy of a home run. The teamcontinued on its way for its third and fourthstraight Conference triumphs. Yedor took hisfifth Conference victory with a six-inning, four-hithurling exhibition. Laird, relieving Yedor to savehim for other games, gave no hits. CaptainWehling made four hits out of five trips to theplate, his last being a triple to left center. A homerby Haarlow in the first inning, with two on base,started the scoring.Indiana upset the Maroon applecart anddropped them down into second place when theytook a 10-6 victory in the return meeting. TheMaroons contributed six errors to the drubbing,but heavy hitting by Indiana was the major factorin the defeat. Their losing streak continued whenthey dropped a heartbreaker to Northwestern inten innings, 7-3. Going into the ninth at 1-1,Northwestern rushed over two runs, only to havea fighting Maroon team rip back with two runs totie it up again. In the tenth the Wildcats brokeloose to score four runs that put the game on ice.Yedor in the final game defeated Northwesternin a tight pitchers' battle, 2-1. It gave the Ma­roons a 7-3 division in Conference games. Minne­sota cracked through six games in a row, four ofthem in the final week, to take the title at an 8-2split. Ohio State came on to tie up with the Ma­roons and Illinois for second place with a three­game closing spurt.Bus Yedor was the Conference's leading hurlerwith six victories and two losses. Ed Tyk led theteam in hitting at .336. Captain Wehling wassecond with a .327 average. Dave Levin was votedthe team's most valuable player at the close ofthe season; and the squad's last move in their suc­cessful season was to elect Dick Cochran and BillHaarlow co-captains for the '36 campaign.YedorLairdWehling KaeenaLairdTrojkaThe bench·125·INDOOR TRACKWIPIXG the slate practically clean bygradua tion after the close of a disastrousspring track campaign, Coach Ned Mer­riam built up his best combination in several yearsto take four out of six dual meets in the indoorseason of '36 and place seventh in the Conferencechampionships, just a single point out of fifthplace.The team, co-captained by Jay Berwanger andQuintin Johnstone, presented a fairly well-bal­anced strength in both the track and field events.Berwanger, working himself into shape during thewinter season for a crack at an Olympic berth inthe decathlon, captured points over the season inthe pole vault, the 60 yard dash, the broadjump,the low hurdles, and the shot put. Ray Ellinwood,smooth-moving sophomore, developed rapidly in­to the sensation of the Conference with recordperformances in the 440 and 880 yard runs.The team opened its indoor season early IIIFebruary, bowing to Notre Dame tracksters, 41-63.

The Maroons made a strong showingagainst this high-class competition.The Maroons opened their Conference slate witha narrow 6-5 victory over Northwestern, and fol­lowed it with overwhelming victories over Purdueand Iowa. Illinois handed the team its first defeat8-5. With the Illini taking an early lead on somebreaks, the befuddled Maroons slipped far behindin the first half to give Illinois a 7-0 lead.

Wilson ButtonAlfred DeGraziaEdward Gercas Harold GoldbergJohn NevilleMurray Powell Philip SchneringJohn Van de WaterWilliam OlsenWITH a team composed entirely of sophomoresand juniors, the Maroon swimming season wasa healthy success, winning three of its five dualmeets, and placing fifth in the Conference meet-thoughonly three points out of third place. Coach MacGilliv­ray with a wealth of experienced men and fine sopho­more material coming up is pointing for the next win­ter campaign with confidence.At the beginnin.g of the season the team rated abouton a par with last year's varsity squad. The free styleevents and diving were stronger this year, but there wasa pronounced weakness in the breast stroke and back­stroke. The four hundred yard relay team was gettingdown almost to record time, and Captain Charles Wil­son was outstanding in his two events.The team's first meet, with Northwestern, disclosedthe team's weakness rather forcibly. Although the meetwas close, many expected points failed to materialize.The Maroons swept Purdue away with all the firstplaces and all but two of the second place points. Timeswere notably improved.Although Iowa whipped the team soundly at IowaCity, Chuck Wilson's two victories, record time in the220 free style and near record time in the 440 free style, SWIMMINGand Jay Brown's victory over 'Valters, the Hawk­eye boy soon to become National champion in the50 yard dash, were encouraging. A complete vic­tory over Illinois followed, with the relay teamturning in a record win over the coming Conferencetitle holders. In the season's dual meet finale, theteam averaged their former loss to Northwesternwith a neat win over the Wildcats. Wilson crackedboth the 440 and 220 Conference records, and therelay team turned in another impressive perform-ance. Jay Brown won his sprint in fast time. CIlin the Conference meet at Minnesota, Iowa Zbroke through Michigan's long reign to win thechampionship. With seven and eight outstanding 00men in each event they were fast and close. Cap-tain Wilson and Lewis P:::of Illinois finished the I(SCORES �220 yard event in prac­tically a dead heat. Amajority of the judgespicked the Illinois boyby inches. The relayteam had the sametrouble with Illinois,cracking the existingrecord but finishing justbehind the U r ban ateam.

Faircompeted in all five events-the horizonal bar,the flying rings, the side-horse, the parallel bars,and tumbling. Schneider competed in four of theseevents, all but the tumbling. These two men al­ternated at winning most of the events throughoutthe season.Chicago defeated Nebraska 758.5 points to653.5 points in an early season engagement. Theirsecond triumph was over the Milwaukee Y. M.C. A. 1048.5 points to 951 points. They enteredConference competition by edging out Iowa bysixty points, and rounded out their dual meetschedule with an 1143.25 points to 1117.5 victoryover Minnesota.In the Conference championships at Bartlettin March, Minnesota with a new performer camehack to take the title from the Maroons. TheChicago team, not as sturdy as in past years,slipped badly in the rings where their supremacywas counted on to give them the championship­the first time in many years Chicago has failedto win the rings event. Unsteadiness in some indi­vidual performances cost the team valuable points,and it all added up into a narrow defeat.With strong freshman material developing,Coach Hoffer is looking forward next winter toanother Conference title.

Underthe new Conference fencing rules, the team cham­pionship was determined by the number of individ­ual bouts won by the team in its dual meet sea­son. The Maroons held a 12.4 bout average foreach meet against Illinois in second place with9.2 points per bout.In the individual championships, which thisyear for the first time had no bearing on the teamchampionship, Campbell Wilson won the foil title,and placed runner-up in the epee. He tied withlast years' Conference titlist-Gillies of N orth­western-in the epee tournament, only to lose thetitle in the fence off.Captain Wilson is now fencing regularly on theOlympic foils squad, having high hopes of remain­ing on the final six, chosen to represent the UnitedStates in Germany. His development has beenrapid in the last two years, due to rigorous workand his excellent training at the hands of CoachAlvar Hermanson, who develops and drills thefencing squad.After the close of the Conference season, theMaroon team continued for some weeks in non­collegiate competition. The honors it has gainedinclude the junior epee championship in the Illi­nois division of the Amateur's Fencing Leagueof America by Henry Lemon, followed closely byfour other Chicago men, the Waldbott cup by thefoils team in its championship quest, the champion­ship and runner-up position in the Illinois divisionby the two University epee teams.

Well protectedfrom both the sun and rain, it gave a new impetusto ice hockey interest. The hockey squad, formedunder the direction of Coach Dan Hoffer, was notsponsored as a varsity team, and no Universityawards were given to those participating. It wascomposed mainly of freshman and graduate stu­dents.With hard and steady practice the players de­veloped into a unique but successful team. A fullschedule was played with neighborhood and cityteams with the Maroon hockey team winning amaj ority of its garnes, some of them against goodopposition.If the new found interest continues, it promisesto become a sponsored varsity sport, attainingfor itself a rightful place on the University'swinter sport's program.·134 .

Estimates indicate that by theend.of the year over noo students will have participated in thevaned program of athletic competition which the departmentoffers for those who do not have the time or the ability to takepart in varsity competition. As in the past, Playground Ballpr�ved to be the mo�t popular sport in numbers competing,while Basketball held Its top post as the sport drawing out thegreatest nUl�ber of t:ams. Increases in numbers participatingwe�e n?ted III Tem.lls, the Fall Relays, Wrestling, and theSwimming Meet, while decreases in numbers were noticeable inPlayground Ball and Horseshoes.C?mpetition is divided into fraternity, independent, anddormitory groups, the first apparently the leader in number ofparticipants and championships. This fact is substantiated bythe records, which show that 57% of the men competing inI.M. sports were affiliated with some fraternity, 35% repre­sented some independent organization, and the remaining 8%were connected with dormitory teams. In each sport a fra­ternity champion is determined who meets the independentchampion for the title of "University Champion." Recordsshow that in the Tl years of competition ten championships,based on the total number of points scored all year by organ­izations, have been won by fraternities, while one year an in­dependent squad, the Macs, won the coveted position. Since1924 Phi Beta Delta has won three I.M. Organization Cham­pionships, Phi Delta Theta, Delta Upsilon, and Delta SigmaPhi have won two each, and Phi Kappa Psi and the Macs, anindependent organization, have won one each.Outstanding performances were turned in in the swimmingmeet by the Burton Court 160-yard Relay Team, which set arecord of 1 :27.1. The record breaking team was composed ofAnderson, Jeremy, Button, and Libby. Time was shaved offanother record in the Annual Indoor Track Meet when Owenof Burton Court raced through the 60-yard dash in 6.5, break­ing the old record of 6.6.As usual, outstanding performers in the team sports werepicked on All-Star Teams.

Not a great dealolder than most of her students, Miss Shelly's enthusi­asm and efficiency have carried the department throughone of its most successful years.As is true of other departments of the University,the Women's Physical Education Department boastsof one of the best trained and most effective staffsamong the middle-western universities. During thepast year, the members of the department, under theleadership of Miss Shelly, made steady progress intheir efforts to give the women of the University an ath­letic program suited to their needs. The program ofsports was unusually varied and changed by the quar­ter in accordance with the seasons. In any quarter astudent was able to choose the sport most suited to hertastes, which might range from hockey or basketball tomodern dance.The Staff included during Spring Quarter, 1936,(besides Miss Shelly) : Miss Burns, instructing baseballand golf; Miss Staud, archery, life-saving, swimming,and tennis; Miss Kidwell, tennis; Miss Thompson, div­ing, golf, social dancing, and swimming, and Miss VanTuyl, archery and modern dance.MARY JO SHELLYIN APRIL of last year Miss Shelly was appointedchairman of the women's division of the physicaleducation department after the retirement of MissGertrude Dudley, and in May Miss Shelly was madehead of Ida Noyes Hall, thus bringing a much closerintegration of student activities for women.Miss Shelly before her appointment to the Universityhad already achieved considerable reputation as an140· MARY JO SHELLYable and popular leader in student work.For the past three years she was headof the physical education department atNew College, Columbia University. Pre­viously she taught physical educationat the Universities of Oregon and �fichi­ga.n. During the summer of 1934, withthe co-operation of Martha Hill, sheorganized the School of Dance at Ben­nington College. She has taken an ac­tive part in the American Physical Edu­cation Association and is well known asan executive and as an originator inwomen's athletic programs.As director of Ida Noyes Hall, MissShelly feels that although Ida Noyesplays a considerable part in the life ofthe University it apparently has aplanned function rather than that of acasual club house. She believes that itmight be well if Ida Noyes were morelike the Reynolds Club.Mrs. Kirnwein Miss Thomson Miss BurnsMiss KidwellMiss BallwebberIda Noyes DoorwayATHLETICSWITH the installation of the WOMEN'S ATHLETIC ASSOCIATIONnew officers at Spring Ban-quet W.A.A. began its year.

Patricia Weeks .TreasurerEreshman Week W.A.A. held three open housesfor the incoming students. They kept Ida Noyesopen, served tea, had social dancing, and made allthe equipment available. These open houses were thestart of a busy Fall Quarter. The girls sponsoredan all campus luncheon, one of three held during theyear, and the Fall Festival.

The remainder of thequarter was filled with numerous out­ings to Palos Park, cozies every Fri­day, and a Basketball Sports Day,which was held toward the end of theWinter Quarter. Teams from Munde­lein, Rockford, George Williams, St.Xavier, and Northwestern were invitedto take part. Play started about tenin the morning and lasted until four inthe afternoon. Because of the rulingagainst inter collegia te competition forwomen no one team was declared win­ner of the day. W.A.A. also took partin the Midwest Hockey Play Day.The group not only carried on itscampus activity, hut it also sent dele­gates to the National Conference heldin Minneapolis in April.For 1936-37 this year's committeemade several suggestions, among whichwere plans for a change in the awardsystem and plans for continuation andexpansion of the winter outings.141 .HOCKEY-----------------------------THE epithet of "intelligent" applies equal­ly as well to the University woman onthe hockey field as to the Universitywoman on campus. There are no scrambled hud­dles, no aimless passes for her, but only the mostintricate dodges, scoops, and plays are part ofthe afternoon's game. This year, as for thepast several years, Hockey had an unusuallylarge turnout. The group under the coachingof Miss Burns and :Uiss Thomson was dividedinto two teams, the divisions and the college.The teams practiced together every afternoonon the Midway, and played scheduled gamesseveral times a week later on in the season.At the end of the quarter the score sheetshowed that the two teams were almost evenlymatched.The girls from the University High School.were the regular opponents of the Universitywomen, while several games were played withthe Faulkner teams. The two big events of theseason were the Play Day and the ExhibitionGame. On November 9th this Play Day washeld in Jackson Park, with the University ofChicago team acting as hostess to NorthernIllinois Teacher's College, Illinois State Nor­mal, Northwestern University, St. :\lary's Col­lege, and George Williams College. The Exhi­bition Game between the All-Chicago and theNorth Shore teams was played in Evanston onOctober 19th. Not many of the Chicago girlsparticipated, however.Among the games the girls played were thosewith the Midway Club, a professional woman'shockey group; these games helped the girlsto improve their game. An innovation whichalso helped improve the game this year was theuse of a new corner. This corner proved to bemuch faster and more efficient.At the end of the season the girls who hadshowed outstanding ability were chosen for theHonor team.·142 .

BASKETBALLBASKETBALL with new and different an­gles was initiated by W.A.A. early in theWinter Quarter. Instead of the usualcollege, division, and high school teams, an in­tramural tournament was inaugurated. Eachdormitory and club was invited to send a dele­gate to a meeting to decide upon a new system,how many teams to have, and how many gamesto play. All the dormitories responded andmost of the clubs. At the beginning of thetournament five of the dormitories, Beecher,Blake, Gates, Green, and Foster and two of theclubs, Delta Sigma and Mortar Board, hadsigned up, bringing the total of all the teamsup to about for ty-five girls. Of these the sopho­mores had the fewest turn out while the juniorshad the most.Natural team rivalry was stimulated by thisoutside spur of intramural competition. Theplay was exceptionally fast and clever withgreat interest in independent and effectiveplays. Practice was held daily in the uppergymnasium in Ida Noyes Hall, and during thispractice the group was divided into teamsrepresenting the division, the freshmen, thesophomores, and University High.By the end of the season the basket averagewas found to have increased measurably. Thewinner of the tournament for competing dormi­tories was Gates Hall, and the victorious clubgirls were the Delta Sigmas.Besides the regular schedule of games aSports Day was held February 29th. This wassponsored by W.A.A. to promote neighborlinessamong senior colleges in this area. NorthwesternUniversity, George Williams, Mundelein, St.Xavier, and Rockford participated in the day'sactivities. As the idea proved most successful,it is hoped that it can be made a permanentaffair.The season culminated in two championshipgames; the first between the All-Star and Honorteams, March 4, was very fast and exciting,ending in a close victory for the Honor team.On March 10 the Honor team met the Alum­nae, and gained a decisive victory over them,ending a successful season.·143·SWIMMING-----------------------------AD1UISSION to Tarpon, the women's swim­ming club, is gained by passing an en­trance examination. After the first test,which admits one to the minor tadpole rank, hasbeen successfully completed, the new initiate mustpass, by the end of four quarter residence, at leastone of the other tests farther up the line to remaina member. These other tests in their varying de­grees of difficulty are the cocky frog, the am­bitious fish, and the mighty shark. The membersbelonging to the different ranks are distinguishedby the color of the cap they wear. The tests arebased not upon speed, but upon form and versa­tility, and include diving and pool stunts.During the Autumn Quarter of this year theclub was divided into two teams, the Guppies, cap­tained by Evelyn Van Emden, and the Dugongs,led by Caroline Zimmerly. A tournament was car­ried on for six weeks during which a list of sixteenstunts was posted, points being given to the re­spective teams when their members passed thestunts. Any member passing a more difficult testfor higher ranking brought additional points toher team. At the end of the time a final swim washeld, and the Dugongs won. When points won byall the members were totalled, it was found thatagain the Dugongs were victorious. As a resultthe Guppies served refreshments to the champions.The Intercollegiate Telegraphic SwimmingMeet was the most interesting event of the Winter Quarter. Thirty-eight colleges entered this tournamentto be eligible for which each girl had to participate ineight practices. The months of January and Februarywere devoted to intensive work. The meet was heldMarch 6th and lOth, proving very successful from theUniversity's point of view. The results were telegraphedto other colleges, and the return,_telegrams showed thatChicago had placed third with i5 'points. N orthwest­ern held first place with 20 points, while Wayne Univer­sity was second with 18. Margie Smith won three firstplaces for the University: 100-yard back-crawl in 1:-11:6 time; 40-yard back-crawl in 24 :9, and 40-yardbreast stroke in 30:1. All of these times established na­tional intercollegiate records. The Chicago relay recordwas broken during the meet.Those girls participatingfound that in the few weeksof intensive practice theywere able to bring down theirtimes quite considerably.Because of the TelegraphicMeet the club decided toabandon the annual watercarnival. Spring Quarterwas devoted to team swim­ming, the club co-operatingwith teams chosen in severalmeets from the various swim­ming classes," Officers forthe year 1936-37 were chosenat the second meeting of theSpring Quarter.·TH·The Gargoyles we still have with usjudy Palmer talking it overwith Sid CutrightVerna Winters A Comeback- .

BASEBALLCLASSES in baseball have been a regularpart of the Hchedule �f the Ph!sic�l Edu­cation Department of the University forthe past number of years. The turnout for thissport has not been very large; so this year AdaSwineford, the captain, and Miss Burns, thecoach, have formulated a plan which they hopewill increase the interest in the sport. They aremaking plans for an intramural tournament forthe various dormitories and clubs. Thus farGates, Green, Foster, and Delta Sigma haveentered teams in the Twilight League, and it ishoped that as the season progresses more of thedormitories and clubs will enter.Practice for the approaching tournaments hasstarted, and every afternoon groups of the girlsform teams and play against each other in Dud­ley Field."C" CLUBjane Hebert. _ ..

The answer to this rhetorical ques­tion is self evident. The dames are very muchalive to this sanguine belief. \Vitness the factthat the Racquet Club embraces more membersthan any other organization outside of the unor­ganized I Want a Man Club.\Vhatever may be the dames' expectation in thismatter of tennis skill, they are given an opportu­nity to achieve the ca. tharsis of their emotions viaa proceeding whose importance merits capital let­tel's: The All-University Women's Tennis Tourna­ment. The winner of this tournament is properlyimmortalized by having her name carved on someobscure cup. The melancholy aspect of this im­mortalization process is often overlooked. If adame should win the cup three times, as did KayWendt, she keeps the cup as her own property.But with the acquisition she acquires her ownen.graved name, and hence she sinks into ano­nymity.146· MINORAda Swineford and Dorothy Eshbaugh in a close gameAiming at the bull's eye A lusty pullSharp shooter Careful instructionsFore!SPORTSPractice makes perfectIf only the weather would get warmerLearn to be quick on the draw ... PEGASUSPERHAPS the name Pegasus has the same at­traction for students that any cataclysm hasfor the higher types of life. This might make aninteresting topic for speculation which we do notpropose to pursue on this point. The real reasonfor the popularity of Pegasus is the smell of theheather and the brae that comes to you while os­cillating along the Midway bridle path of a morn.However, the members of this noble institutionreceive instructions in the art of horsemanshipfrom that of making a three point landing to thatof impaling on your eyebrow that fresh youngshrimp in the new roadster whose honking strucka responsive cord within the bosom of the horseyou were riding causing him to stop and contem­plate the cosmos of it all.GOLFTHE shortening of life cycles along WoodlawnAvenue during the Spring Quarter may beattributed to les demoiselles displacing their winterfrustration onto golf balls. After pent up furyhas reached perfection's point and when innocentpassersby have been mown down on Dudleyslaughter field, the organized artillery of the GolfClub, whose grand strategy is determined by theMisses Burns and Kidwell, moves to a more elegantrange where the practice of sniping human lifecontinues. All of this is accomplished in the nameof a golf tournament designed to end in the deco­ration of the University's most accurate sharp­shooter. This distinction fell to Miss Rena Nel­son, the present president, in 1934 and 1935.TAP CLUBSOME day some genius will apprentice himselfout to some hermit on some desert island andthere write a very brilliant treatise on whetherorganized monotony or organized variation makestime pass more quickly. Whatever conclusionthat genius will draw has already been anticipatedby the members of the Tap Club and their presi­dent, Helen Ann Leventhal. For this organiza­tion is designed to inculcate in its members acapacity to keep time monotonously and to varythe rythmic tap with a variation in routine. Thecompromise presents itself to the academic ob­server as a delightfully synchronized oscillationof protoplasm. So delightful is the spectacle thattime passes quickly, and too soon are college daysa t an end.

One ishis own degree of proficiency-initiative, competence, ingenu�ity-; the other is his academic conscience. There are no eligibilityrules, and there is a minimum of official regulation restricting organiza�t.ions. Thus student act.ivities provide training in responsibility t.o t.hecommunity, self-discipline, and cha ruc ter-devclo pmen t in the best sense,and hence justify their existence and the considerable measure of fa cili­ties which the University provides.The University assumes that all its members conduct themselves asgentlemen and gentlewomen, scholars, and honorable citizens. The rela­t ivc infrequency of disciplinary action is evidence that its assumptionis in accord with the facts. That students here have an almost unprec�eden ted degree of freedom in all their behavior is consistent with theideals of a liberal institution: that freedom becomes not license, but r e­sponsibili ty to self and conununit.y , has been satisfactorily demonst r a.ted here.All of which perhaps seems unduly complacent to the uninformed.But it is not simply complacency. The fact remains that University ofChicago students haw with rare exception proved their fitness to co n­duct themselves and their aff'ai rs with propriety, distinction, and trust.WILLIAM E.

It is mucheasier to get a perspective on that big room in the front of Lexing­ton Hall from here in Louisville, and it is easy now to see where themistakes have been made, and where the strong and weak spots inthe book will be, but we have done the best we could with the timewe had and the money which we dared to spend.Our big concern this year was to make the book as all-universityas we could, and to use our capital where it would be doing themost real good. In the light of that, we kept to simple layouts,put all of our pictures in la.rge rectangular cuts, included two en­tirely new sections, subdivided the book systematically, used onlyone color ink, and returned to the old style for senior pictures.Naturally the value of the book was greatly increased by theBill Lang's work, the Echo section and John Barden's "The T'niver­sity Year." Bill, with his dry humour, and ability to see and re­member everything that the students have done, and John with his'experience editing the Daily Maroon and working in the PublicityOffice. Also had it not been for the thousands of pictures that DonHolway and Dave Eisendrath took and printed up, we would stillbe biting our nails and copying catalogues to fill in the cut space.Most faithful of all the workers, and always willing to do thedirty work was Genevieve who after having bossed the publishingof the Student Directory took over the work of being managingeditor and women's editor at the same time. Bob Upton, our chief"bawler out," had perhaps the next hardest job in the editorialdepartment. And, of course without it having been written we couldnot forget Phil Baker's many and probably terrifying hours asthe Editor's Secretary.

It has been the opinion of the directors that collegeeditors have at their disposal an intelligent reading public that is not at allsimilar to the broader public served by large metropolitan papers. Since thereis a difference in andience, it was felt that not to reflect this difference by apresentation different from that of the different papers would be poor j ournal­Ism.Imitation of other papers, then, was not worshipped as an end in itself;nor was all possible revolt against conventional technique accepted as policy.Rather, the editors chose to treat problems as they were related to the particu­lar field they were working in, and solve them as well as they were able; confi­dent that readers had a certain minimum critical faculty that would enablethem to accept or to reject any new treatment on its own merit.This fundamental philosophy shaped the Maroon from the start. Theeditors took their first step away from established j}[ aroon. patterns when theyconcluded that a complete report of foreign news presented from a studentpoint of view-from the point of view that all foreigners were not enemies andthat the League of Nations was not a nasty thing if you like-was a legitimatepart of the paper.The handling of this new material was also undertaken in the same spirit.There was a frank acknowledgment by the directors that campus news in thepast had been gorged with hot air and made up when it did not exist (theyought to know, they were wonders at the old art of expansion). There was aprediction-a prediction that was more than fulfilled-that foreign events ofworld-wide importance could be expected during the year.

It did not matterthat there was no precedent for much that was done.Changed material and changed handling broughtout a new sort of editorial. The fact that modernnewspapers editorialize in their news columns wasfrankly accepted, the idea was carried over to alimited extent but in more honest form. When the111 aroon felt that comment or interpretation wasneeded, such comment or interpretation by the editorwas included in the story but clearly marked offfrom it. It was with satisfaction that the JlI aroonnoted the adoption of this idea by a Washingtonmetropolitan paper and the declaration by Editorand Publisher that here was a 'solid contribution tojournalism. At the same time, regular editorialswere written when a subject presented itself andnot when a space needed filling.vVhen football seemed of first importance theAi aroon. followed its original philosophy. The sportswere given as much space as they seemed to deserveon the first page, and rather than fill out the pagewith manufactured stories-leaving less room "in­side" for real news-ads were placed on the firstpage and space consequently left for other news oninside pages. Similarly when some question arose asto whether or not the elimination of capital letterswould be a step ahead in journalism, the Maroonprinted issues without capital letters in order to see.When mechanical difficulties with typesetting aroseand the alternative of using "promotional" advertis­ing or pre-set material arose, the directors chose tointroduce "A Corner for Readers"-a body of typethat could be held over and used to fill in the paperwhen necessary and to take the place of the "isn'tour paper a nice thing" sort of ad.So far as possible-and the cases mentioned arebut examples-the �M aroon tried to solve its ownproblems without falling back on traditional solu­tions and stereotyped presentations. The 111 aroonwas completely conservative in that it accorded toits material whatever space or handling that mater­ial seemed to merit-this in preference to subordinat­ing material to the form of the paper-and followedthe logic of this method even at the risk of, at times,seeming "radical" in its departure from familiar,modern, less functional practices.. 159· Business Staff _Top ROM': Blum, Bergman, Meigs, Gustavson, Rosenfels.Second Row: Kupperman, Levine, Daskal, Shutan, Free­man.First Row: Hoy, Bernard, McQuilkin, Elliott, Gentzler.Maroon Editorial FreshmenTop Row: Deadman, E.; Kalk, H.; Beck, H.; Bonniwell,J.; Vineek, E.; Scheffer, D.Third Row: Hickman, C.; Orland, F.; Miller, B.; Horton,R.; Miller, S.; Kraybifl, H.Second Row: Ellinwood, C.; Neff, A.; Seifried, M.; Dun­lap, B.; Bergquist, L.; Janssen, M.First Row: Maginnis, C.; Hess, M.; Baugher, M.; Biesen­thai, M.Maroon Editorial, Upper ClassTop Row: Burnette, W.; Phelps, B.; Stern, E.; Golding, E.;MeNeill, W·.; Fritz, E.Third Row: Kiser, J.; Rich, I.; Morris, J.; Snyder, J.;Pfanstiehl, C.Second Row: Howell, R.; Logan, M.; Bartels, B.; Taylor,E.; Yalowitz, H.; Robbins, B.; Feeney, C •First Row: Stolte, J.; Nicholson, R.; Lahr, R.; Kelley, H.PHOENIXTHI�GS have come to a pretty pass whencriteria other than circulation figures must.be introduced as evidence of the excellenceof a humor publication, and this being true, thingshave indeed come to a pretty pass. I think thata resume of the growth of an editor's mind-andthe magazine along with it-bearing in mindthat growt.h can be in any direction includingthat of obscurantist insanity as well as in thatof a rollicking Gargant.uan comedy, might dosomet.hing to explain what. the Phoenix got. into.Last year, as displayed in the academic issue,which I edited to try my mettle, I harbored agathering feeling of nausea provoked by the over­emphasis on academics of the school as I saw it.I decided that a return to the Joe College humorpublications of the Coolidge era would be a goodpurge and a means for flaying the situation Ididn't like. The Sept.ember issue was the exempli­fication in purpose, the result somewhat a dimin­ished by the necessary almost total lack of staffin the deadly week-before-freshman-week, of thatfeeling. The October issue vented editorial spleenat several aspects of football-such as its presen­tation in the movies-although not at footballitself. The magazine was gradually changingfrom the Joe College to the more obvious kindsof satire. This element was next projected, inNovember, at the woefully picayunish state ofcampus society, into which I had dipped brieflyand then withdrawn. It was given timeliness bya Daily .:.11 croon statement t.hat only some twentycampus figures could really be called society. Alittle satire on Christmas gave what little unitythere was to the December issue, although therewas one ar-ticle, the second in my era, which wasreprinted in two other college publications, onein Arizona and one in Ohio. In January came theparody issue of Esquire, on the whole probablythe best issue of the year. It marked the culmina­tion of the unsuccessful Esquiresque covers, andwas marked, in contr-ast to Phoenix's usual spotti­ness, by a fairly constant high level of qualityboth of cartoons and editorial matter. The Laut­ner cover really first came into being in the Febru­ary, captiously labeled March, issue. These cov­ers were remarkable for their freshness andoriginality as well as for a technical excellencebettered by none in recent years, nisi Quinn, andnot alwa vs then. In it and in the real Marchissue the;e was no especial unity of subject, thestaff's active mind roving about among the preg­nant subjects of Shakespeare, the movies, theHearst Sunday supplement, the University RoundTable and others. In February there was a series. 160· Abrams Tailor Tom The music goes round & roundBig business manThe home of it allAbrams ... scheme Enticing the freshmanTop Row-Stel'n, Pardridge, Krueger, Horwich, Warshaw­sky, Sokolik, Sherwood.Second Row-Cupler, Karlnn, Abrams, Goldsmith, Raden,Rosenthal, Morris, Bowers.First Row-Anderson, McCasky, Green, Clark EichenbaumPatrick, Strickland.

Humor is ahighly subjective commodity and it is hard tojudge by objective standards. If the Phoenix canbe judged against other college magazines oragainst other, even professional, humor mag­azines, I think it does not appear in a too unfavor­able light. But whether there is a market for eventhe best, speaking technically, humor is a doubtfulquestion as far as this campus is concerned, sothe Phoenix is a success or a flop depending onhow you look at it, and as far as I am concernedI am about through looking at it.D. ;\1.STAFFDON MORRISEditorPHILIP W.

Theopening issue, published in May, was dedicated to the memory of Pro­fessor Ernst Freund; a special section on Legislation and Administra­tive Law W8.S established as a regular feature of the Review, to commemoratethe distinguished work of Professor Freund in those fields. The Lam Reviewhas since been published quarterly. It is now nearing the end of its thirdvolume. .The Law Reuieu: publishes subject matter of two kinds. The first consistsof articles contributed by teachers of law and lawyers from the law schoolsand bars of the country. The second part is made up of student notes andnotes on recent cases, contributed by students with the assistance of mem­bers of the faculty of the Law School. In these essays legal subjects of im­mediate interest are treated. Book reviews of recent legal publications com­plete each issue.The editorial work of the Law Herieto is carried on by student editors,and supervised by a board of student officers with the assistance of a facultyadvisor. Each board of officers elects its student editors from the studentbody of the Law School, on a basis of scholarship and interest in the work ofthe Hecieze, The board of offlcer-s elects its successors from the student edi­tors thus chosen, in the spring of each year.Although the Law Review, as law reviews go, is yery young, some out­standing contributions to legal literature have appeared in its columns. Amongthese may be numbered, Edward W. Hinton, State of Mind and HearsayRule (vol. 1, p .. 394) ; Douglas B. Maggs, The Constitution and the Recov­ery Legislation (vol. 1, pp. 171,188, and 209); W. S. Holdsworth, The Im­portance of Adam Smith's Wealth of Nations in English Legal History(vol. 2, p. 533); Roscoe T.

WaldCOMMENTSTAFFMartin GardnerEditorGeorge KempfBusiness ManagerSam HairAssistant EditorAssociate EditorsRobert StallmanMarian WagnerWinston AshleyDavid RobbinsMARIAN WAGNERMARTIN GARDNERDURING the Winter Quarter of 1932, Ricker Van Metre, Jr., a studentat the University, decided to found a literary magazine. In an editorialfrom the first issue he writes:"Clothes, we argued, do not make the pirate, nor do titles the magazine;it is the content that counts. And so, when someone suggested Commentator,we were only too willing to a,gree. But the matter was not yet at an end.Hardly an hour later a slip of the fingers on the typewriter keys made aCommenta,ry out of a Commentator, to the permanent confusion of the syn­tax of an otherwise excellent sentence; but we were too weary to start it overagain. And then, the next day, faced by some two thousands of envelopes tobe self-addressed, we decided that Commentary was too long anyhow; and,to be brief, we called our magazine Comment."The following two years, Comment was edited by Charles Tyroler II, andlast year the magazine fell into the hands of the present editors. Commenthas always had but one aim-to bring together the intellectual and creativewritten expression of the University community in a publication that wouldbe of distinct interest to the student body. The magazine is hi-quarterly andhas a wide circulation among the literati and intelligentsia of the campus.During the Winter Quarter Comment was the sponsor of a lecture at MandelHall by Carl Sandburg.Among University professors who have contributed to the magazine dur­ing the past year are T. V. Smith, Fred Millett, Sterling North, Eustace Hay­don, William Ogburn, Percy Boynton, Robert Morss Lovett, and WilhelmPauck. Among the student contributors are: V. P. Quinn, David Robbins,Charles McCoy, William Sherwood, Donald Morris, Sam Hair, ThomasHowells, George Mann, Fritz Leiber, and others. The poetry has been con­tributed largely by Marguerite Young, Winston Ashley, Marian Wagner,Hobert Stallman, Hester Buell, Mark Ashin, and David Eisendrath.. 163·DRJ.\J'i\J.\ �rt CSTHE DRAMATIC ASSOCIATIONTHE ELEVENTH ANNUAL MIRRORBLACKFRIARS "FASCIST AND FURIOUS"WOODCARVING BY BILL KINGFRANK HERBERT O'HARA DRAMATICY or: XG '" oodley. .

TheMidway school's underground forces,its blue-clad, dirty-faced crew, surgedto the front under the dictatorship ofits head janitor, chief engineer, or whathave you. (The University labels him"Head of the Buildings and Grounds").Its classrooms became hotbeds for dis­semination of knowledge on the school'splumbing system. "Out with Plato andthat gang !" shouted the head of theFascist University.JAMES VICTOR JONES ELLIOT COHNFASCIST AND FURIOUSSIDNEY HYMAN marked by reVISIOn of curriculum,books, and activities to coincide withhis idea of worker's profit-sharing (withMcGlurk portraying the proverbial"lion") state.There are a few clever spots in whichthe board of trustees with Harold Swiftof the meat-packing family are taken"for a ride." A brief scene of John theBaptist (recalling strangely the wiz­ened founder of the University andStandard Oil "promoter") passing outdimes-c-or slugs-is enough to bring thehouse to laughter. Scoring also is thegoverness of the Robert M.

The show endswith parties concerned returning totheir own station, and McGlurk, a trueleader, defying arrest.The "kickers" shine in the dance num­bers with Nathan Krevitsky, formerFriars star, stealing the honors. Themusic is rather unusual for such collegeproductions with the song, "Can LoveBe Gone," by Robert Fitzgerald andJoel Herron showing the most promiseas an off-campus hit. The dancersthrough the use of simple steps are ableto become quite proficient, even more sothan in former years.It is all in satire, however-for it'sBlackfriars time at Chicago when menare women and women get a kick out ofit, as the coeds affirm.The show takes up two outstandingcampus groups, the student "radicals,"and the Buildings and Grounds office,always a pet student "gripe" becauseof its stringent regulations for paradesor meetings. The two groups are repre­sented by characters, under fictitiousnames, �vho are well known to' thestudent body.

During this year the departmentconsisted of a few trial courses in appreciation andtheory. At the same time an orchestra was recruited fromthe ranks of the students where talent had long existed buthad long been neglected. The enthusiasm over the projectwas instantaneous and has lasted since. It was discoveredthat a great many students in medicine, physics, literatureand the sciences could play not only string and wind instru­ments but that they could play them extremely well. It didn'ttake long to assemble a sixty-piece orchestra to playa fairlyimpressive program. When this program was performed,music was launched at the University.During this same year it was found advisable to organizea new student society to sponsor the orchestra concerts,which seemed to establish themselves almost from the first asregular and expected quarterly occasions, so the UniversityMusic Society was formed, consisting primarily of studentsof the orchestra as officers, as an organization to sponsorwhatever would come up in the future in regard to studentmusical performances. This organization lasted for threeyears in its initial form. In 1934-35 it was found that theorganization must expand for, meanwhile, the UniversityOpera Association had sprung into being with performancesof Purcell's Dido and Aeneas and Handel's Xerxes. In 1935-36 the University Music Society merged with the UniversityOpera Association and then became the mother organizationof the two wings-the orchestra and the opera-thus con­centrating all the student activity in music under one head.Each year, beginning in 1934, there have been presentedthree symphonic concerts and one opera revival. The cur­rent year has presented the following programs:Autumn �uarterSYMPHONY NO.5 IN E MINOR, OP. 64 'Tschai�ows�yAndante: Allegro con animaAndante cantabile, con alcuna licenzaAndante maestoso; Allegro vivace"SCENE ANDALOUSE" FOR SOLO VIOLA,STRINGS AND PIANO 'Turina1.

CECIL MICHENER SMITH di­rected the UNIVERSITY SYM­PHONY ORCHESTRA as forty mem­bers of the company-cast and chorus-rendered the classical themes ofI phiqenia an opera long popular inGermany, but never tried in the UnitedStates by commercial companies.The cast was directed by CHARLESPOLACHEK, of the Goodman TheaterSchool of Music, and dancers byMARIAN "AN TUYL, instructor ofdancing and ballet. Settings were bySTIRLING DICKINSON, wood-cutillustrator of Heath Bowman's recentbook, Mexican Odyssey. J 0 H NPRATT and INEIZ CUNNINGHAMSTARK (;\lrs. Harold Stark) youngChicago artists, designed costumes.The role of Iphigenia, marooned forfifteen yealrs on the island of Tauris inthe service of Diana, was taken byMARY ANN KAUFMAN, Chicagodramatic soprano. ROBERT LONG,tenor, took the part of Pylades, andPAUL PENCE, baritone, played Ores-tes; both are members of the ChicagoCity Opera and both are pupils of MaryGarden. Role of Thoas, Iphegenia'schief tormenter, was sung by EARLWILKIE, cantor of the UniversityChapel Choir; and PAUL HUME, astudent in the Department of Music,was the Scythian. All who participatedin the opera are, or have been, affiliatedwith the University in one way oranother. All details of production,music, and designing were carried outby students.The artistic success of Dido andAeneas and the boxoffice success ofXerxes lent encouragement to the pro­moters and producers of I phigenia thisyear. In line with past policy, Iphigeniarepresented a great and well-knownoperatic classic, unknown to the musi­cal public of Chicago because otherorganizations do not care to risk boxoffice receipts which Aida and Carmen,for example, are sure to bring.Said EDWARD BARRY, ChicagoTTibune dramatic critic: "The Univer­sity of Chicago deserves public recogni­tion of the unique service it is giving thecity in thus exhuming these carefullyselected masterpieces from music's past.The determination of this city to keepitself in the main stream of world musicWIN3 demonstrated last night when theUniversity of Chicago Opera Associa­tion gavc Gluck's revolutionary Lphi­genia i,n T'auris its fir-st Americanperformancc. New York, it is true,THE UNIVERSITY SINGERSBoyd, Mernitz, Bean, Olson, Vos, BaileyBooth, Cannon, Hodgman, Mathews, Nelson, Stock.fisch, Mack Evans, director; Olson, Burnett, Willis,Merrifield, Karras. claimed to have rushed the work to a cis-At­lantic premiere even faster than we did, but theeastern metropolis has it confused, possibly,with Iphigenia in Aulis, The date of the opera'scomposition might seem to cast a little doubton the alertness of both towns. You must re­member, though, that we were busy fighting theredcoats when Iphigenia's melodies were" firstheard in Paris, and that one thing led to ano­ther until 157 years were frittered away. Hereit is, at last, nicely mounted in Mandel Hall." CARLBRICKENThe Spring, Q'ua,rter production will be the world pre­miere performance in English of the modern Czechoslovakianopera Slvoaaula by J aromir "V'einberger. It is remarkablethat such achievements are even possible in a department ofmusic where no practical instruction is offered. Indeed, asmall percentage only of the members of the University Sym­phony Orchestra are music students. The scope of its ap­peal is therefore beyond the bounds of the department reach­ing out into the University at large and inviting all thosestudents who can play orchestral instruments to join in anactivity which gives them immense pleasure and definite ar­tistic expression. The department is fortunate in havingmen on its staff who can teach the theoretical and historicalsubjects as well as pour out their enthusiasm to the studentsat large in these extracurricular musical projects.The presentation of the opera Shoasida was first con­ceived as a public relations gesture. Realizing the serious­ness of such an undertaking, work was begun on this pro­duction in the fall of 1935, looking forward to the actualperformance on the dates of April 20, 22 and 23. Consider­able interest was evinced not only in the city of Chicago butthroughout the country in the undertaking in that it is thefirst offering of this currently popular work in Europe any­where in English. The beauty of the score is unquestioned.The folk lore of both the libretto and the music recommendsit highly for a spirited performance. The students of theUniversity are becoming widely known for this quality whichthey, possess-the spirit with which anything they do ismanifested,Since this article is written two weeks prior to the per­formance itself, it is only possible to say that rehearsals todate promise performances approximating the professionaltouch. The department has been fortunate in securiIl'g,theco-operation of outstanding men in the field of scene desizn­ing, costume designing and stage direction. The soloists �reyoung Chicago singers with promising futures who in oneway and another have been connected with musical activityat the University for the past several years..

The179·history of these organizations would be the almost incrediblestory of what BRICKEN, SMITH and TALLEY, not tomention enthusiastic students like TOM TlJRNER, havebeen able to do with practically nothing.WAAF ��mpltof1ic Hou'r.The entire picture of the department's activities wouldnot be complete without mentioning two other departmentalactivities of wide-reaching appeal. One is the SymphonicHour concerts sponsored by this department over the Chi­ca,go radio station 'VAAF. These programs are selecteddaily by the Department of Music, broadcast to countlessmusic lovers whose letters prove their interest in them. Theother is the noonday concerts given in the assembly hall ofthe Social Science Building on the Quadrangles for any stu­dunt who wishes to drop in and listen to them. These pro­grams have been run continuously throughout the year sincethe fall of 1933.The department is justified in feeling that from withinits own departmental source it reaches out to more of thestudent body and the public than is ever suspected by eitherthe University at large or the public at large. It is necessaryto get a complete picture of all these contacts emanatingfrom one source to realize the scope and importance of thework being done by this young and thriving department.RENAISSANCE SOCIETYINEZ CUNNINGHAM STARKNo STORY of the activities of the Renaissance Societyin any year can be told without first setting downthe name of EVE WATSON SCHUTZE because itspresent and future life are inextricably bound up with whatshe meant to it and what it has inherited from her. Sopowerful and constructive was her influence that one wouldwonder how it could continue without her if one did not un­derstand that its present direction and activities are stillanimated by her spirit as well as her wishes.It is true this animation and direction only approximatewhat Mrs. Schutze would have done for the Society, but herabilities and personality were unique. She brought to itthree essential elements that are not' likely ever again to beunited in one person. First, by means of her personalityalone, she was mysteriously able to hold a great many per­sons of opposed views and ideals suspended in a sort of blandsolution of friendliness, and while they were so suspended,to render them susceptible to artistic suggestion. It is a180· Top: Long, Baenziger, Kaufman, PenceBottom: Pence, Kaufman, Hartshorne, WilkieThc drum leads the paradeFixing the staysGetting it into positionThe finishing touches talent which in a way she left behind her-its effects stilloperate among the members of the Renaissance Society.That organization, under her direction, came to represent across section of the city's intellectual, artistic and sociallife, and presumably with the knowledge that her plans willbe carried out in so far as possible, the coherence remains.Second, she was an organizer-a constructionist who builtstrongly, but so impersonally that no neighborhood, as itwere, held her to the building line nor imposed restrictionsupon her.Third, her talent for assembling exhibitions was one thatby the very nature of it cannot be duplicated. It began witha long subconscious visual training, an unflagging interest inliving art, and a knowledge and understanding of the .graphicand plastic arts equalled by few of her contemporaries. Itwas based upon the premise that art and life cannot beseparated and that to be exposed to art is eventually tounderstand and love it. To these qualities, she added thewill to carry through whatever she projected. She managedco-operation where others had found only stubbornness, andsurmounted obstacles that would have stumped museum di­rectors. The impossible was the thing she did as a matterof course.Mrs. Schutze's death is an irreparable loss to the com­munity, as to her friends, but it is safe to say that for themembers of the Renaissance Society, as for her friends, shelives in the inheritance she left us and in the complete defini­tion and sturdiness of purpose which the Society represents.It was her purpose to create an interest in all the arts,to make the Renaissance Society a communal center of in­tellectual and artistic expression in Chicago. That she suc­ceeded in doing, and that, in all humility, we are trying tocontinue in that we hope to maintain the cohesion whichexists and to carry out in general plans of which she wouldhave approved.goseph Bifttde'LThis year we began our activity with a small exhibitionof commercial art built around the work of JOSEPHBINDER and his American pupils. Binder, of Vienna, isperhaps the outstanding figure in poster design and letter­ing at the present moment in the commercial art world.His recent visit to teach in American art schools, of whichthe Art Institute was one, had a definite and enlivening influ­ence on his own work and was an inspiration to his pupilshere. He deserves great praise for the fact that in histeaching of Americans, he stressed the importance of thenative scene and manner. The purpose of this exhibition181 .was mainly to crystallize in the minds of art students theenormous importance of good commercial design and wasorganized with the hope that some not otherwise so inten­tioned might turn to it as a profession.Inemo'r.ial E;xkibitionThe following exhibition was a memorial showing of thepaintings of MRS. SCHUTZE herself. While she waswell known in Chicago as a contributor to various local artshows, a comprehensive exhibition of her paintings had neverbeen held here before, and it was not until they were gath­ered together from many parts of the country that anyonerealized the strength of her work, nor even its objective.The exhibition of MRS. SCHUTZE'S work was followedby the work of ABE RATTNER, an American born in NewYork state, who has been working in Paris for some yearsand who has received many honors there. Aside from anexhibition in the Julian Levy Gallery in New York in theautumn, and a short showing in Philadelphia, the Renais­sance Society exhibition was Mr. Rattner's first Americanappearance. The DELL QUEST GALLERIES co-operatedwith the Renaissance Society by showing Rattner's worksimultaneously. Rattner belongs to no particular school­nor is he much influenced. He does not go about amongartists in Paris, but works and studies alone. He IS con­cerned with the effect of light and motion on form.1e'r.nand .5:ege'r.The exhibition of the works of FERNAND LEGER,brought from Paris by the Renaissance Society under MRS.SCHUTZE, assisted by MR. WILLIAM EISENDRATH,MRS. JOHN V. NEFF and others, followed Rattner's workin our ,gallery. It had already been loaned by the Renais­sance Society to the MODERN MUSEUM IN NEWYORK, the MILWAUKEE ART MUSEUM and the ARTINSTITUTE. The Renaissance Society Gallery was un­fortunately not large enough to house the most importantcanvases in the exhibition.E;lie .5:ascauxAfter the Leger show, we hung the paintings of ELIELASCAUX, a youngish French painter of great charm andmerit. These pictures were borrowed from the ARTS CLUBand came heralded by MISS GERTRUDE STEIN and·182· Merriot at the ehapel organRing out 0 bellsOlson playing the Alma MaterrUNIVERSITY BAND PABLO PICASSO, who owns eleven canvases by this talentedpainter. Future exhibitions this season will include the workof JOHN PRATT, who received his training at the Uni­versity of Chicago-who is sponsored by the ROULLIERGALLERIES, whose work is now in many discreet collec­tions, and whose talent is of the first rank.�ocial activitiesThe social activities this year began with a dinner andlecture by LE COR:S;USIER, who needs no comment. TheRenaissance Society had the great pleasure of hearingJOSEPH LHEVINNE, the Russian pianist, in private re­cital, and of giving him a birthday party after the recital.One of our most important lecturers was MR.' LEONELLOVENTURI, well known author and art authority, whosetalk on CEZANNE was a foretaste of his book on thatpainter, to be published soon.Many thanks are due to MR. HERRLEE CREEL andMRS. FLORENCE AYSCOUGH McNAIR for their bril­liant lectures on various phases of Chinese Art. MRS.LAURA BOULTON will talk on Chinese music with demon­stration by Chinese musicians, and MR. HARLEY McNAIRand MRS. FLORENCE AYSCOUGH McNAIR will jointlydiscuss Chinese art for us before the May lecture of MR.GEORGE ROWLEY, who is returning from London withslides of the great Chinese Art Exposition there. For Mr.Rowley's lecture, we have to thank MR. JOHN ALDENCARPENTER, member of the Renaissance Society board,who kindly offered the lecture to the Society. RenaissanceTeas in Wieboldt Commons in connection with exhibitionsare always well attended.The event of the Renaissance Society season was theBERTA OCHSNER dance recital and the ballet CHICAGOBY NIGHT given in Mandel Hall, April 4th. The balletgrew out of my wish that not only a native but a local ex­pression of the dance could become possible. The music wasby MISS EMILY BOETTCHER, the choreography byBERTA OCHSNER, and the decor by JOHN PRATT. Aquotation from the announcement will ,give some idea of ourpurpose in the ballet, "to be an authentic art form, thedance, no less than literature or painting, must reflect itstime and place. It must be the expression in essence of thetime and country from which it springs without losing thoseuniversals which are valid for the race of man in all timesand countries."The implications of the ballet CHICAGO BY NIGHTrange from the amusing to the profound, and implicit inthem are America's position in the world and Chicago's placein America.Our exhibition plans for next season are not yet definite.183·THE UNIVERSITY CHOIRTHE University Choir is one of the accepted musical or­ganizations of the city. Its standards are those ex­pected of a metropolitan choir. The scope of itsaudience is increased by the Sunday morning Chapel Serv­ices, which are broadcast over WGN.The non-sectarian character of the Chapel allows for awide choral variety. The selections include great music ofthe past and present, from the ancient Hebrew and Gregorianmelodies through the Roman, Anglican and Reformationliturgies, to Russian and other modern settings of textsreligious and poetic.This freedom of source is accented in the special dramaticservices of the calendar: the Christmas pageant, the Epiph­an y Candle-Lighting, the Tenebrae, the Orchesis, and thesummer 'Vednesday evening services devoted to distinctchurch literature.l\lany of the Christmas pageants have been produceddirectly for the Chapel building, and its magnificent re­sources in architecture, acoustics, the setting it affords forthe use of music, light, color and action, enable symbolismon a grand scale to be used. These projects have been madepossible only through the generous help of artists, musicians,costumers, authors, composers and assistants in productionfrom many departments in the University and from com­munities as distant as Washington, D. C., and Toronto,Canada. Music and texts have ranged from French cathe­drals of the twelfth and thirteenth centuries to contemporarycomposers and authors.The Epiphany Candle-Lighting service is a free version ofthe ancient Feast of Lights, obtained in something like itspresent Chapel form from Christ Church, Cambridge, l\Iassa­chusetts. It was especially distinguished this year by thesinging of the guest soloist, Claire Dux, who is one of thegreatest living sopranos.The Tenebrae is a traditional service of Holy Week,celebrating in a symbolism of lights and music the fore­shadowing of the crucifixion.One of the most interesting religious ceremonies of theyear has come to be the annual interpretation in the danceform, by the students of Orchesis, of the Gregorian Mass.A solemn setting forth in formal drama of the significance ofthe ancient ritual.The year's choral program is varied by invitations tovisiting choirs to sing the programs of Sunday Vesper Serv­ices of the autumn and winter quarters.The director of the choir, Mack Evans, is a graduate ofKnox Conservatory and College, and Harvard University,where he received his Master's degree. His experience has in­cluded church, concert, and theatre playing and directing,and has ranged from playing Chautauqua in the CanadianRockies to playing masses in French villages.The choir enjoys occasional off-campus dates about thecity and suburbs, but finds its chief satisfaction in theChapel itself. New members are welcome and previous ex­perience is not required.·184·STUDENT SOCIAL COMMITTEEINTERFRATERNITY BALLWASHINGTON PROMMILITARY BALLSOCIAL CALENDARSCHWA.BSTUDENT SOCIAL COMMITTEETo PROVIDE for undergraduates a means of participation insocial activities on and off the campus, to facilitate the regu­lation of other campus activities to prevent conflict, to aidIII the orientation of all students, these are the purposes of thestudent social committee.The activities of the committee commenced last spring quarter,when on Scholarship Day we entertained high school students tak­ing the competitive examinations and acquainted them with t.hefunctions of t.he Universit.y. The work of adjust.ment was begunFreshman Week with the co-operation of B.vV.O. and the Orientationcommittees during which t.ime luncheons, a new and different type ofmixer, t.eas, and tours of the campus were arranged. Later in theyear tea-dances, an all-day pep session before the Purdue game cul­minating in the Boo-Purdue Dance, and finally the thirty-secondannual Washington Prom were given.These are in our eyes the highlights of the '35-'36 social season:The grande finale of the mixer in the Ida Noyes Gymnasium duringFreshman Week when the best freshman dance team led the grandmarch. (We know from various sources that any single senior manreceived more mixing than all the freshmen put together that night.)The singing and snake dances of the Boo-Purdue dance while thecommittee was wringing its hands at thedoor in an effort to pay the orchestra.And, of course, the Prom march led byVail, Grabo, and Stolte escorted by Ber­wanger, Nicholson, and Ebert to the"swing" of Benny Goodman's orchestra.Long will be remembered a night when byspecial permission of the Dean's Office wecould stage a dance until 3 :30 and longwill the committee remember the exoticplans we laid in one December meetingwhen we felt it expedient to cut a tunnelfrom Bartlett to �\Iandel when we thoughtof bringing these dances back to the cam­pus. We leave it to the new committee toevolve more such schemes and carry themout with elan.·186· AMI FROST ALLENTop Row: Allen, J.; Davis, F.;Stapleton, W.; Olsen, L.First Row: Williamson, E.; El­lis, B.; Pittman, C.; Eaton, M.;INTERFRATERNITY BALLLEADERS DRAKE HOTELEarl Btcrtnet.tWILLIAM STAPLETONEDWARD BOEHMDAVID HUMPHREY JEAN PRUSSINGALICE JOHNSONEDITH McCARTHYWASHINGTON PROMLEADERS LAKE SHORE ATHLETIC CLUBCharles Gaylord and Benny GoodmanJAY BERWANGERROBERT EBERTRALPH NICHOLSON JEANNE STOLTEBARBARA VAILCYNTHIA GRABOMILITARY BALLWILLIAM WEAVERROBERT ADAIR SOUTH SHORE COUNTRY CLUBCharles GaylordCATHERINE PITTMANMARGARET CALLANANLEADERS·187·SOCIAL CALENDARFriday, October 11Transfer DanceSaturday, October 12Freshman Football DanceAlpha Delta Phi, Open HouseKappa Sigma, TeaPhi Kappa Psi, Tea DancePhi Delta Theta, TeaPi Lambda Phi, TeaPhi Gamma Delta, TeaZeta Beta Tau, TeaWednesday, October 16Kappa Sigma, TeaFr-iday, October 18All University DanceSaturday, October 19Kappa Sigma, TeaPhi Kappa Psi, DancePhi Delta Theta, TeaChi Psi, TeaPhi Gamma Delta, TeaZeta Beta Tau, TeaDelta Upsilon, TeaPhi Sigma Delta, Open HousePi Lambda Phi, TeaDelta Kappa Epsilon, TeaSigma Chi, TeaAlpha Delta Phi, TeaFriday, October 25Ida Noyes, HousewarmingPhi Beta Delta, LuncheonDelta Sigma, FormalSaturday, October 26Alpha Tau Omega, TeaPhi Sigma Delta, House Danceand Open HouseDelta Kappa Epsilon, TeaAlpha Delta Phi, TeaPhi Gamma Delta, TeaPsi Upsilon, TeaPhi Delta Theta, Radio Danceand TeaDelta Upsilon, TeaKappa Sigma, TeaPi Lambda Phi, House DancePsi Upsilon, DanceChi Psi, TeaPhi Kappa Psi, TeaZeta Beta Tau, Open Tea andDanceSunday, October 27Phi Delta Theta, Club SupperFritz and Peeples • . . they're notcamera shy ..• Marty MillerCome again some timeSmoothy NyquistWashington Prom LeadersSknll and Crescent party stillwith usGrand March ...

T.C.DEBATE UNIONTHE purposes of the Debate Union as set forth in its constitution are"to foster public discussion and to maintain a program of inter­collegiate forensics." The first goal is before the Debate Union itselfas an organization, the latter before the varsity teams selected from itsmembership.As this report is written, the Debate Union is closing its most active year.In the field of Union activities, the first important program was the round tableheld in Mandel Hall during Orientation Week for the purpose of acquaintingfreshmen with the functioning of the Chicago Plan and aiding them to get amaximum from their first year's work, the platform discussion being led byGeorge Messmer, President of the Union; Irving Axelrad, Secretary of theUnion (both star debaters of the current season) ; Marie Berger, Delta SigmaRho key holder, and Wells Burnette, past cabinet officer and Daily MaroonEditorial Associate, each of whom had experienced the Chicago Plan betweenone and four years. Following this program were numerous others in the formof symposia presented on topics of current interest such as the Italio-Ethiopiansituation, at which Signor Palmieri, Italian author, lecturer, and naval archi­tect, presented the case for Italy and Professor Kreuger of the faculty the casefor Ethiopia; U. S. participation in Olympics, socialization of medicine, andthe status of the Supreme Court, to which outstanding faculty men such as Dr.Victor Johnson, Professor 'Gideonese, Professor Andrew C. McLaughlin andProfessor Marshal Dimock contributed.In the field of debating, over seventy-five debates were held with institu­tions all over the United States, from Texas to Minnesota and from Pennsyl­vania to Nebraska, and four major tournaments were attended, the ManchesterTournament, the Iowa State Tournament, in which the University took secondhonors, the Delta Sigma Rho Tourney, in which the University tied for firstplace, and the Western Conference(Big Ten) Tournament, held for thefirst time on this campus, in whichthe University tied for third place.Several radio debates were also par­ticipated in by the debaters duringthe season. Men outstanding in de­bate for the year were George Mess­mer, Jacob Ochstein, Victor Lips­man, Irving Axelrad, Bryon Kabat,Alvin Weinstein, and Edwin Crockin,Treasurer of the Union. Womenactive in debating were HenriettaRybzcynski, Edythe Hollander, andMarian Wagner, Publicity Directorof the union.Top Row: Weinstein, AI; Bostick, W.; Ferguson, A.; Burnette, W.Second Row: Son, W.; Ochstein, J.; Orland, F.; Lipsman, V.;Hollender, E.First Row: Wagner, M.; Messmer, G.; Stoner, J.; Axelrad, I.;Croekin, E. The members of the Debate Unionwho were elected to Delta SigmaRho, the National Forensic HonorSociety, were Irving I. Axelrad,Claude Hawley, Victor Lipsman,George Messmer, Jacob Ochstein,and Marian Wagner. The basis forselection is achievement in inter-colle­giate debate and scholastic standing .. 193·CHAPEL COUNCIL---------------------LEONARD OLSEN RECOGNIZING, more strongly perhaps than in recentyears, the need for a group seeking as its ultimate end theunderstanding of the nature of religion and engaging inactivity directed toward that end so that it might help to sustainand foster interest in religion on a campus sadly deficient in suchinterest, the chapel council thought it appropriate that it shoulddevote the year to as thorough an inquiry as possible into thenature of religion.The year was divided into two sections, the first half beingspent with the pragmatists and their various approaches. Thecouncil met with such men as Dr. Weiman, Dr. Ames, Dr. Haydon,Professor Aubrey, and Professor Ralph Barton Perry, visitingphilosopher from Harvard. The second part of the inquiry wasunder the guidance of scholastics, during which time the councilattempted to set up standards in the light of which any religionmight be evaluated. Orthodoxy was contrasted with heterodoxy.The meetings with Professor Adler proved to be the most stimu­lating and most thought provoking sessions of the year, Mr.Adler attempting to discover with the council the first principlesupon which religion is founded and its essence and properties.The council spent several evenings with Mr. Adler and at thetime of writing has invited Christopher Hollis, visiting scholarfrom Oxford, and Professor McKeon, dean of the Humanitiesdivision, to lead them in further discussion.Top Row: Smith, D.; Bethke, R.; Allen, J.; Bly, J.; Fareed, L.; Daren­atsy, A.Third Row: Youmans, G.; Ash, F.; Olsen, L.; Majarakis, J.; Lang, W.Second Row: Beal, D.; Anderson, E.; Fisk, H.; Williamson, E.; Penne­baker, C.; Grabo, C_First Row: Scott, D.; Chase, B.; Hoyt, L.; McCarthy, E.; Barden, E.·194· The council feels that it hasbut started an inquiry whichcouncils of succeeding yearsmay continue and do much toimprove, for a knowledge of re­ligion is unquestionably neces­sary for any complete universi­ty education.The chapel council is a groupof forty-five members selectedby recommendation from facul­ty and students organized forthe purpose of carrying on dis­cussions and participating 111the chapel services.STUDENT SETTLEMENT BOARDTHE work of the Student Settlement Board for the year1935-36 was initiated by the tours through the UniversitySettlement conducted for the incoming freshmen. Thegroup was addressed by several members of the staff of the settle­ment. Most of those who made the tour indicated their interestin doing volunteer work. As a result of contacting these interestedpersons, the settlement had more student volunteers than everbefore. Their assignment to particular types of work was madeafter individual conference with 1\1r. Knarr, acting head residentat the Settlement.Opening the Christmas week celebration on the campus withan old-clothes drive, the board secured enough donations to pro­vide clothing for many of the older boys and girls cared for bythe settlement. The women's clubs and a few of the fraternitiesexceeded expectations by donating enough money to give theyounger children an unscheduled but much appreciated party.The board further added to the enj oyment of the members of thesettlement house, particularly the adults of the community, bysecuring the services of the University Choir for a special concert.Early in February the appointment of Miss Sylla as the newhead resident of the Settlement was announced. The University'Smost gracious hostess, Mrs. Charles Gilkey welcomed her and en­tertained the Board of Directors and Volunteer workers of theSettlement at a tea at her home. The large attendance was anevidence of student interest.Second in importance only tosecuring an unprecedented numberof volunteer workers was thebringing of groups of youngstersfrom the Settlement to the Uni­versity. This work was directedamong the girls by Betty Bardenand among the boys by FloydStauffer and Dan Smith. Eachof the women's clubs brought overa group of girls at least once dur­ing the year. The boys were en­tertained by the fraternities ondays when athletic activities weregoing on, so that they could en­joy them in addition to the fra­ternity parties.Culminating its year's activi­ties by staging the annual TagDay with the co-operation of theclubwomen, the Board receivedenough funds from the studentbody to make a sizeable contribu­tion to the somewhat depletedbudget of the settlement.

This banquet was attended by the alumni,the faculty, and the student body.Regular dances were held during the year, theCouncil co-operating with the Comad Club on giv­ing the bi-monthly student mixers and teas.The "Balance Sheet," a publication edited bythe Council each Spring Quarter, contained mes­sages from the School of Business Alumni Asso­ciation, Dean W. H. Spencer, and various facultymembers. It also included a summary of theactivities of the School for the year, news of theorganizations within the School, and various otherinteresting articles.Howard Hickok PresidentVivian Klemme Vice-PresidentEarl VVorman SecretaryLowell Schultz TreasurerEaton Read Merritt BushSamuel WhitesideCOMAD CLUBDURING the past year Comad continued itsbi-monthly luncheons and had for a speak­er at one of these, Miss Alexander, of theUniversity of Chicago Press.

Two students fromeach campus spoke, with the Rev. .IohnHerrmann (who was then taking grad­uate work at the University of Chi­cago) , acting as the chairman. OYera thousand students attended the meet­ing, and through names secured at theclose, permanent Christian groups wereformed at the three campuses. Themovement had no denominational basis,and was confined only to the Chicagoarea.Since that time the Chicago grouphas been active as a University Cluband now numbers between twenty andthirty members, all of whom are eitherstudents or affiliates of the University.Its organizational set-up is very in­formal, and it professes no creed otherthan faith in a living Christ and in thetruth of the historic Christian message.It meets weekly at Ida Noyes Hall andoccasionally participates in young peo­ple's services at city churches. Duringthe Winter Quarter it sponsored acampus lecture at Oriental Institute byDr. J. Gresham Machen of WestminsterSeminary, Philadelphia.

ID·A NOYES HALLIDA NOYES HALL, long lendingits impressive structure to our dig­nified Gothic city of the Midway,this year progressed at rapid stridesin its trend toward a more informalgathering place. Men were cordiallyinvited to participate in the diversifiedactivities such as social dancing, had­minton, shuffleboard, and billiards,while more campus organizations, fall­ing in with Miss Shelly's conception ofthe purpose of the Hall have felt free touse its many facilities.Freshman Week started a year ofmany activities for the Hall. Duringthe first week the building was in con­stant use for teas, mixers, and openhouses and thus it continued throughoutthe Fall 'Quarter. October 9th was thedate of the Freshman Frolic sponsoredby Y. W. C. A. and closely followingthat was the transfer dance. With thebeginning of the conference footballgames, the activity around Ida increas­ed greatly. Several dances were heldafter the Friday pep sessions, and thebuilding was open for dancing, etc.,after the game each Saturday. The useof the Hall was not entirely confined toevening functions as W. A. A. and Y.W. C. A. sponsored luncheons there.The climax of the Fall Quarter's activi­ty was reached in the Annual ChristmasTea held for the faculty and the stu­dents.Besides the usual open houses anddances during Winter Quarter IdaNoyes also furnished the setting for astyle show, a white elephant sale, andthe annual student Art Exhibit. Theexhibit was held from March 3rd toMarch 6th.In addition to the many undergradu­ate organizations which use Ida Noyes·199·for their meetings, a large number of alumnaegroups have found that the building makes anideal place for headquarters.Perhaps most characteristic of the notablechange going on in the Hall is the new class formen in modern dance technique under Marion VanTuyl's direction, which well illustrates the Hall'snew plan of broadening its scope.IDA NOYES ADVISORYCOUNCILFACULTY MEMBERSMiss Roberta BurgessMrs. Harvey CarrMiss Nellie GorgasMrs. Elizabeth H.

In thenext few months precedingthe entrance of the UnitedStates into the World War,Professor Ola Bell, maj or ofcavalry, built up a cadetunit of 550 students in ac­cordance with the policies ofthe war department for thepurpose of training men asofficers for the Officers Re-serve Corps. The war caused the substitution ofthe Student Army Training Corps which was filledby drafts upon the student body for the ReserveOfficers Training Corps. PRESTON T. VANCEAfter peace was declared, the R. o. T. C. wascontinued with the same purpose of training Re­serve Officers. A similar purpose exists today inthe department under Preston T. V ance, Maj orof Field Artillery. This year marked further prog­ress in his policies for the better regulation ofentrance requirements as well as the reorganiza­tion of material in the courses offered.In order to allow prospective Reserve Officerstraining in command, the students in the depart­ment are organized into a unit officered by cadetsappointed by Major Vance on the basis of merit.William Weaver was the commanding officer ofthe unit this year, possessing the title of lieuten­ant colonel, while Robert Adair was second incommand as major. In addition to the academicpursuits relative to the branch offered at theUniversity, the unit participated in activities suchas Military Ball and the pistol and polo teams.Although there were three men eligible to playpolo this yea.r, no games were played because ofthe high mortality of the mounts during the sum­mer. The unit was outstanding, however, in thatit was again awarded the distinctive insignia for·207·R. O. T. c.excellence at an inspection held the Spring Quar­ter of 1935. This honor which has been won forsix consecutive years entitles all members to wearthe blue star insignia.Students of the Field Artillery are membersof either the basic or of the advanced corps. Thebasic corps covers the first two years, includingcourses to acquaint the students with the dutiesof enlisted men. The advanced corps instructsthe members in the duties of an officer. After com­pleting this course, the men upon graduation re­ceive commissions in the O. R.

However,certain facts deserve analysis, not from the standpoint of mak­ing a defense, but from an impartial attempt to anticipate andperhaps to readjust.Fraternities were founded and built up under very differentcircumstances and environment than can be found at the Uni­versity of Chicago, at least Juring the past few years. l- nlik cclubs or societies they have had the double problem of not onlyoffering something of value to a none too interested group ofstudents, but at the same time being able to do it in the face ofstrongly competitive boarding and rooming rates. � ot onlyare they faced with external forces, but they are, by the verynature of their existence, continually competing with eachother. The results l.ave been significant, but not necessarilyconclusive.In 1929 there were 29 fraternities represented on the cam­pus, all but two of which could be classed as fairly strong na­tionals. At the close of this y('ar there are seventeen, amongwhich are the seven first to establish chapters here. Of theseseventeen only a few are operating at a profit. Since there donot seem to be enough pledges to satisfy all houses, the ten­dency has been toward the growth of a few larger chapters,with a dropping off of those at the smaller end.As yet there has been no acceptable solution offered to thcfraternities. Similar trends have been noticed in similar schools,but apparently either through lack of able leadership, orthrough an inability of social groups to reform themselves, theadjustment must be the result of a "laissez fa ire" attitude.Blame has been placed not only upon general financial condi­tions, but also upon the ill-functioning rushing rules. The Uni­versity itself, in keeping with ideals of freedom among the stu­dents has refused to recognize the problem as one of hers, andhas allowed the fraternities to exist as best they can. ::'IIuchcould be said about the dormitories interfering with the frater­nity houses, or visa vcrsu, and as yet it is difficult to say whetherfraternities aid or hinder orientation of incoming students.--INTERFRATERNITY COMMITTEETHOMAS KARATZ; JOHN MATTMILLER;WILLIAM STAPLETON; EVERETT GEORGE; DAVID HUMPHREYEDWARD BOEHMThe fraternities are entangled, but individually they are experi­menting, and together some of them have found partial salvation in theInterfraternity Cooperative Purchasing Agency, under the competentleadership of Everett George. This agency, being the best step for­ward so far is deserving of the remaining space allowed to this writeup.Starting June 1, 1935 for a six months trial, Everett purchasedbutter, eggs, bread, and laundry services, with a saving to the houses of870 on butter and eggs, 12V21e, on bread and 80'/c on laundry. Becauseof these results he started the last of January to purchase fresh fruitsand vegetables, at a 205{-, saving. The first of ;\larch he started to buymeats at an average saving of j'7c,. In many incidents the quality ofthe meat was improved.At the end of the six months trial period the agency was a suc­cess and it was agreed that 12 houses would employ its services for theschool year of 1935-36. In October 1935 it took on the purchasing ofcanned goods and other staples that were required for each house. Thefirst quarter of this year the agency made a net saving of $1,100.00.The second quarter savings were estimated to be $1,250.00.FCTPRE PLAXS. Ten houses have agreed to install the Inter­fraternity Cooperative Purchasing Agency dietician service next fall.;the dietician to be selected before school closes. Consulting with thefraternity treasurers each quarter for the purpose of budget planning,the dietician will advise the house treasurers on matters of house andcommissary management. The plan is a step in the direction of install­ing better fraternity cost accounting.. 225 .ALPHA DELTA PHIFounded in 1832 atHAMILTON COLLEGEChartered in 1896 atTHE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGOFACULTY COUNSELLORJames Weber LinnACTIVE MEMBERS.,...Karl Adams, Jr.Edward AltJohn BallengerRobert BethkeWilliam Beverly.John ClarkPhilip ClarkeFred Devereux\Valter Eckersall Ray EllinwoodGraham FairbankWilbur GroebeJames HandyDaniel HeindelCharles HoyFrank HughesLloyd JamesAlexander KehoePLEDGESBarry BurblingerJames CasselsRobert CasselsWilliam Doty Robert HarlanGeorge HaysAndrew HerschelJohn Krietenstein J ames MelvilleJ ohn MorrisLeonard OlsenArnold PhillipsWilliam RunyanWayne ShaverBurton SmithDaniel SmithDick SmithJ ames Lytle.J olm Mc'VhorterRobert Meyer:\Iartin Miller Ralph SpringerWillard Van EttenD.

Thenewly inaugurated system outlined a rush period of six weeks, startingthe third week of Autumn Quarter and closing at the end of the seventhweek. The number of functions allowed each club was also diminishedin accordance with the shorter time. Under this system more girls werepledged than were formerly under the deferred plan of 1932 to 1934,the total number reaching 129.On January lOth Interclub sponsored its annual dance. This partyfor all club women and their escorts was held at the Vassar House TeaRoom.An innovation this year was an intramural basketball tournament.This was a definite step towards unity among the clubs, and a largenumber of them responded. The response undoubtedly will becomegreater as time goes on and the clubs have more time for choosing theirteams, arranging their schedules, and practising.In February a new club, Rayute, was recognized by the Dean ofStudents Office and was added to the Council. This group, which wasorganized Autumn quarter, could admit new members Spring quarter,but it did not begin its formal rushing period until the usual time, Fallquarter.The Council ended its year with a luncheon held to introduce thenew members for 1936-37 before the annual Spring election.Third ROlf): Smith, H.;Cupler, E.; Hicks, S.;Bennitt, E.Second Row: Brown,A.; Schumacher, E.;McKinney, M.; Herr­burg, M.First Row: Karahuta,M.; Bowker, B.; Lau­ranon, S.; Curl, H.Inset: Harriet Hogan,Pres.Founded in 1915 at the University of Chicago ACHOTHACTIVE MEMBERSAlice BrownEleanor CuplerHelen CurlDorothy Echard Sarah HicksMarion HerrburgHarriet HoganAnn Perkins Helen PetersonHelen Smith.Mary Rita SmithPLEDGESEunice BennittBetty Bowker Helen HagedornMary Karahuta Seri LauranonEloise Schumacher.�&.... y.,..:,�·245·Second Row: McCann,B.; Detweiler, E.; Reid,L.; Sundstrom, G.First Row: Turner, D.;Beling, L.; Bliss, C.Inset: Eunice Thoendel,Pres,ARRIAN Founded in 1931 at the University of ChicagoACTIVE MEMBERSLillian BelingCarol BlissEulah Detweiler Barbara l\IcCannLa verne ReidGladys Sundstrom Eunice ThoendelDorothy TurnerPLEDGESEleanor Pickert246·Third Row: Blume, V.;Vander Schaegh, C.;Laverty, M.; Fish, G.:Palmquist, H.; Domke,M.Second Row: Wright,G.; Rogers, V.; Wendt,K.; Smith, B.; Thom­son, H.; Thornton, R.First Row: Scharff, 0.;Beale, B. ; Callanan,M.; 0' M a II e y, M.;Gentzler, D.Inset: Margaret Calla­nan, Pres.Founded iu 1903 at the University of Chicago CHI RHO SIGMAACTIVE MEMBERSFaith BabcockBetty BealeVirginia BlumeMargaret CallananMargaret CongerMildred DomkeGenevieve FishPLEDGESHelen Best Doris GentzlerShirley IrishMary LavertyMary MacKenzieMargaret O'MalleyHelen PalmquistMary ReamerVirginia Rogers Olga ScharffBetty SmithElizabeth ThomsonHelen ThomsonRuth ThorntonClemen tine Vander SchaeghKathrvn WendtGertrude WrightHarriet Doll Sally Framel\Irs.

Two of the oils had to have four quarts added before 2,000 miles werecompleted. With one, I had to add two quarts. .But with Quaker State, I never used over one quart in 2,000 miles.

ANOREW HOYTLong Beach, Cal.This is the Andrew Hoyt we all thoughtwe knew so wel I.-Eo.Vol. I, Ko. I ECHOThe Yearly Newsmagazine .Iunc, 1936CAMPUS AFFAIRSTHE. PRESIDENCYElection Reverberations.Among causes of viewings with alarm bycertain members of our citizen body, con­vinced that the political future of the coun­try is to be found on campuses of its uni­versities, is the not-so- recent election ofsenior-class president of the University ofChicago. Presidential sItuations on thebanks of the Midway, it is now known, havetheir share of the unique. Amongst thelatter is the well-recognized fact that notone of the presidents in the history of theclass has held office for more than one year.This is a rigorous example of intensity offeeling existing in the student body, of theease with which 11- miniature governmentmay be toppled by those whose trainingmake them most capable for it. No wonderWashington trembles!In contrast to this is the relatively-infi­nite four-year tenure of the nation's chiefexecutive. His' baby-kissing and hand­warming duties have none of the terrorsfor life and limb, fear for health experi­enced by the Midway muckamuck.As a matter of fact, actual duties of thisoffice have long been a source of conjectureto all involved. Sprung from the foreheadof Jove in the far-distant past of .. fledg­ling university, undoubtedly it was createdto compete with, established traditions ofnon-frontier houses of learning, insure atleast one graduate .. scholastic accomplish­ment at which to point with pride, giveevery mother's son something to grow upinto. This was .. truly great forward stepin those bitter early days, much to be con­trasted with similar views of that sameschool now that it has attained its presentfooting on the pedestal of educational suc­cess.In the past, feelings ran high when eJec­tion time rolled around and the studentswere allowed to emerge from their books.With all joy of recently-shed youth theywent about the job of make-believe election.There were class-room whisperings to co­horts, sunday-suit calls to faculty big-shots,stuffing of ballot-boxes, unstuffing of bel­ligerents, in general all of the other littletricks employed by their betters. Thosewere days when a student knew all thenames of presidents of the senior class.Now, though the list is a little longer, thereseems to be some difficulty by the averagestudent in discovering the name of onlythe regnant chief.There would be every reason to expectthat conditions on campus warranted a hell­raising campaign this year. Leaders wereanienty, platforms many. But, for some reason or other, the election was not that.'When registration officials at the dean'soffice in Cobb Hall, Chicago, Ill., had assem­bled all petitions, they found them to reachthe staggering total of one!

There followedcustomary mouth frothings of the envious,accusations that J eremiahs existed in thewoodpile, mumblings by the vast majorityof book-dusters that they weren't informedof election plans. In ali justice to the se­lection it must be admitted that the affairwas adequately, timely enough advertised,machinations honestly controlled, ballotsaccurately counted. Evidently it was a caseof not enough candidates rather than toomuch Berwanger.John Jacob Berwanger (you may call himJay if you don't slap his 200 pounds at thesame time) is another example of howneighborhood talent may achieve success inthe large metropolis. He was born at anearly age, as might have been guessed, inDubuque, Iowa. Iowa is a state of theUnited States, is noted for its corn, hogs,and Grant Wood. In his youth Jay workedon boats on the local river somewhat as,it might be compared, did Abraham Lincoln,another prominent worker-upper. Despiteobvious similarity about the ears, no spec­ulation was offered at the time that Jaywould ever attain the presidency.Not until he began making football his­tory in high school did friends glimpse apolitical career opening before the youngman's high-stepping' rush. The possibilitybecame a certainty during his college yearsas he plunged, ran, danced, otherwise con­ducted himself in It manner befitting agood football player.Natural gifts made Iowa's Berwanger Itfount of ideas to despairing sports-writerswhose daily allotments in the metropolitannewspapers suffered steady encroachmentsby adjacent market-pages as athletic newswaned. Borne through the season by wavesof publicity unseen since gangster slayingsof the prohibition period,. his nominationwas assured; after winning the final gameof the year by a last-minute touchdown hispresidential victory was a certainty.Despite his political success, Berwangerremains a man of the people. He religious­ly performs duties as they are found, dis­covers that his clothes still fit walks sleepseats like most humans, with 'exception per�haps present on the last count, since theyoung man has revealed unusual ability attucking vittles under his belt. Althoughcognizant that he came college-ward foran education, he submits himself willingly6 ECHo .. J 1/11 (' •. /[I.1r;Campus Affairs-(Col1tinued)to all the burdens of his office, includingterrors of innumerable after-banquet speech­es, omnipresent salutations of Tom, Dick &Harry, strains of having innumerable pho­tographs taken witb campus beauties.When reached at his comfortable littlehome on south University Avenue, a homeunselfishly shared with thirty or more lessfortunate brothers, Berwanger had little tosay. Although extremely happy that he hadagain proven himself the people's choice,the new executive expressed disappointmentin campus apathy toward political affairs,in lack of opposition from other schoolgroups as the Womens' Federation, KentChemical Society, and the communinnies.Snorted he: "It would have been fun if wecould have had a good fight thrown in".Strange to say, Berwanger is the thirdsuccessive football player in a series of classpresidents. This Itself is some indicationof importance of tip-top physical conditionwhich strains of the job necessitate. Firstin line came Wayne Rapp, ('34) bluff, bur­ly, woman-fearing man from Long Beach,California. Next was Ellmore Patterson(,35), who cinched his election by appearingon the Atl-American football selections ofthe year, and finally, Iowa's Flying Dutch­man. As a result of these statistics, it isrumored that students in the Law schoolare being encouraged to do their bit onStagg football field next fall in preparationfor future careers as ward committee men.II Farseeing Delta Kappa Epsilon politi­cians are consldering campus objectionsnext year to having two presidents as an­nouncement is made that the 1937 footballteam will have two captains, La Grange'sPrescott Jordan and Evanston's SamuelWhiteside, both brothers in the Deke fold.II A glimpse of the president's inner-lifewas afforded in the past year by appearancein city newspapers of an announcement ofthe engagement of Berwanger to JudithPalmer, movie-type coed, who was gossipedto have actually met him on "Hello" termson several occasions. A distinct surprise toJay, the news was much more than that toMiss Palmer's mother, who made emphaticdenials to press, kept telephone wires hum­ming in efforts to reach the man in theaffair. Calling at the fraternity house wherehe was quartered, she attempted to reachJay, but like other discreet campus presi­dents of the past, he was found to be outof town. Matters finally reached normalequilibrium, however, when falsity of theannouncement was published, and coedswere once more heartened into tracking onthe All-American's trail.II ,\ downtown daily last year carried thestartling bit of news that Berwanger kepthis straight-shooting habits by throwingdarts at a target fixed at the foot of his bed. Attributed to this nocturnal exercise,also, was his ability to throw footballs ac­curately, which is one of the lesser knownhobbies of the senior class president. Inthis vein followed a remark hy '" campusperiodical that he also kept his shape bykicking a ZOO pound chunk of concretearound the football practise field for hoursat a time. Splendid conditioning naturallyresulted, it was added.THE CAPITALPrinter's D evilin gsWithout a doubt first in its line, intimate­ly associated with the names of all greatstatesmen and others, rising above its type,the capital has long commanded eyes of theworld. Despite its importance to everyCap & GDwnEDITOR NICHOLSONNo cap'italiist, he.phase of a vast reading public, recent plansby leftist students would have eliminatedthe capital from the country. No wonder,.then, that interest was high when the DailyMuroo» came out with an experimentaltype face using only lower case or non­capital letters.Long a. faithful follower of downtowndailies in the presentation of news, the lVfa­'roon mirrored them even more in theory bycreating their own news, running their newtype set-up under noses of the breakfast­reading student body. Objections immedi­ately flooded Lexington Hall, home of thatorgan of student opinion. Where beforedispatches were incomprehensible, now theywere also illegible; rapid readers found theirtime greatly consumed in being forced tofollow only the punctuation; campus idlestirred themselves immeasurably longer inhunting through gossip columns for theirnames. Undaunted, editor Ralph Nicholsoncontinued the change another day, sought to alter reading habits of youthful life­times. Finally when several subscriberstook their names off the mailing list, cuttingthe circulation in half, student newspaper­men capitulated, once more hit the gadgetsat the extremes of their typewriters,emerged again with a capitalistic issue.With a big shakeup, they fired their printer,left campus opinion waving fists at the pro­duction end. It was quite astute, but noone cared what happened next, as long asthe future insured one security in rapidlyfinding one's name in print when it was inprint.II Among other experiments to which well­conditioned guinea pigs of the quadrangleswere subjected by the Daily Maroon wereinnumerable surveys of passing interest.Campus opinion was invited to pass on thedesirability of United Press dispatches,whose world-news items competed daily onthe 'AI al·oon front pages with latest campusstirrings. Then there was a movie survey,one on methods of gating for the Washing­ton Prom, propfrl' -procedures to follow inthe promlscueus depositing of fraternitypins on the persons of others, current mor­ality .lnvolved in the simple act of sayinggood-night, together with other subjects ofan equally profound nature. .t}ll of these,of course, illustrated serious manners inwhich students at one of the greater iflsti­tutions of the world go about solution ofsome of its weightier problems.THIRD PARTYFirst Rank DissensionOversaturated with campus lights, thisyear's senior class found itself at wits'ends in trying to satisfy tradition, still gi v­ing credit where credit is due. Althoughprom leaders at University functions in thepast have been limited to two males andtwo of the contrary sex, schedule makersfor the Interfraternity Ball deemed it ad­visable to add a third top-seeded couple tohonorary ranking, thus conceiving the uniqueidea of It ball with three wings. Fears con­cerning success of a third party on an al­ready overwrought campus were dispelledwhen announcements shrewdly failed to di­vulge which of the couples were Right,Middle, or swung their arguments from thedemonstrative side.In keeping with new traditions, the Wash­ington Prom also saw six faces instead offour shining into lens of photographers'cameras. Rationalization, bugaboo word ofthe social science survey course, led prommanagers to declare the measure as one ofefficiency, one making extremely handyhandling during the grand march of largecrowds of prom-goers anticipated. Perhapsso, but such a measure can lead to only oneinevitable conclusion, and ECHO confidentlyawaits the year when every ticket buyerto a University prom receives with.it per­�ission to lead his own personal wing dur­mg fol-de-rol of the big night's parade.ECHO • Juue .. 10.11; 7Campus Affairs-{ Continued)RECOVERYClothes Make the Man-What?Of great import to worriers over campusI. Q. was the winter recovery to sanity ofPsi Upsilon fashion-pacers. Psi Upsilon isone of the more prominent fraternities inthe University, but its prominence has ledits members in past months to perpetratesundry sartorial outrages upon the conserva­tive element which still believed that thefunction of clothes is to cover the bodyrather than to afflict the eye. For all theireccentricities, the Owls, as they are some­times called, are very nice boys. That, how-Underwood &PSI U FASHIONPLATECampus [eared for his sanity.ever, is why everyone took the matter toheart last fall, had honest fears for mech­anism of their collective craniums.Perhaps it was intentional, perhaps not,but when all Psi U's appeared on the walksto classes one particular morning, each ofthem wearing a relic of open-driving days-the cap-people commented on the coin­cidence. When it was discovered that thesesame gentlemen sported trousers whoselower edges spurned by inches the tops ofshoes, then coincidence was forgotten as itbecame apparent that a social revolutionwas making its formal, oh, so formal, debut.Worry was served in large packages atthe dean's office, as actual portent of themovement caused University officials tochew their sheets at night. Despite drycomment by an English visitor that: "...the caps were quite knobby", conditionswere exceedingly ticklish. Maidens whoseeyes heretofore had rested on the groundwere forced by gaudy male sox to starestraight ahead with brazen look, only to beassaulted by sight of checkered caps bounc­ing along on Psi U domes.Matters came to a head, so to speak,when the campus itself decided to act. Un- able to feel pity for a group whose actionsbranded them as being unsocial-minded, thestudents ostracized the rebels-against-con­venti on. As a result, with companions drop­ping away on all sides, mothers in tears,girl friends aloof, the Psi U's surrendered..T ohn Flinn, one of the original instigators,exposed again for puhlic admiration hisclose-cropped hair, almost precipitated", re­turn to the revolution. Connor Laird sub­stituted for his cap a felt hat of even earli­er vintage, and one hv one the rest of thebelligerents fell in line.With matters once again under controlthe Dean's office resumed its duties of nor­mal disciplination. Apparent to all at pres­ent is the fact that recovery seems weI!nigh certain to stay.([ Outstanding throughout the entire affairwere valiant actions by Bowen's WilliamHaarlow in clinging to his original chapeaudespite mutiny on all sides by his brothers.It was a comforting sight in the chaos whichoccurred.(l Recovery was also observed from an­other, totally unrelated, direction whenDctily Maroon columnist broke into a 'feverof rashness one day, printed a limited listof names, labeled that list the "society" ofthe quadrangles. Mutterings of dissensionImmediately arose from the other sixthousand odd members of the student bodywho did not make the grade, who were notconsidered capable of making passes atpretty ladies on terms of social equality.But these are incidental to the real pointrevealed by the publication. When times getbetter, money becomes less scarce, peopleget more money, have aspirations for socialprestige. One of the first to reflect thislatter is the press, and the Maroon accord­ingly acted correctly,. for once, when it as­sumed the role of harbinger of better times.(l Another sign of recovery is reportedf'rom the office of the University bursar,where students unclutch their fist� quarter­ly to release the contents and pay tuitionfees. Where lines a block long stood hours,now lines two blocks long stand for hoursand hours, with only slight exaggeration.CRIMERoyal FadeoutIt was", roaring cold morning in Novem­ber when the first cross-campus tramperswere amazed to discover that royalty haddescended during the night, had preparedhimself for a slight sojourn.In the Circle, asphalt-encircled plot ofgreensward centering the quadrangles, stoodthe regal figure of a king, a bit thick in thebarrel, with one hand on hip, the otherstretched ahigh. Nearby, in equal dignity,stood his retinue--ten ashcans of commonalley warlety, As if in anticipation of thefollowing day's football game, the monarchhad ordered these battle-scarred veteransto line up in a single row, and there theyall stood, rough & ready, to greet the earlyclass-goers, Excitement ensued when the identity ofthe visitor was disclosed by Harper Stacksto be that of Gambrinus, famous Germanking, now in exile, renowned for patronageof the flowing bowl and elbow ability in thepunch-line. However, there was no an­nouncement of his official mission, the man­ner in which he dropped in during the nightheing unknown.That it was a scheduled visit was evident,for an enameled throne had been rentedfrom a nearby plumbing establishment, in­stalled with pipes before Cobb Hall. Thecampus itself was covered with sidewalksigns reading, "Beat Purdue," which theInternationalTHE KIDNAPED Kr xcPOI' "inn, (( bodyguard availed little.eminent German translator and editor ofPhoenix, Don Morris, later informed wasGambrinian for "Love thy neighbor."At present there is little doubt that theking planned an extended visit to the quad­rangles. When his presence was discoveredthat early morning in November, his rightfoot was atop a. barrel of Munich ale, goodliquor in its own right, but potent enoughfirewater to belittle any visitor's stayingpower.But other minds had other ideas aboutthe matter, and a few hours later the king,his barrel, his retainers vanished from sight& sound of campus, perhaps never to return.Acomplished in broad daylight, the kidnap­ing was a daring one. It was at once evi­dent that the monarch had been given theconventional set of gears and gadgets knownas the works. How he had been overcomedespite the obvious valor of faithful hen�h­men still remains a. mystery. There is nodenying fierceness of the struggle.

Still more perti­nent remarks were passed by prominentstudents.Said Raymond Lahr: "I had no con­nection with the affair."Said Jeanne Stolte: "I think it's a shamethat pinhanging doesn't mean all it usedto."Cl Amusing to the point of absurdity wasthe telephone call received by Lyman Flook,superintendent of Buildings' and Groundsdepartment, from a plumbing contractorsaying that King Gambrinus had been stolen,of all things, from the yard of their plumb­ing establishment, of all places!

Thosewho wished for something tangible to showfor their tuition-receipts perked happilywhen announcement was made that Alex­ander W oollcott, nationaly known raconteurand wit, was scheduled to deliver a freelecture at the University to all members ingood standing, with dues promptly paid up.Whether the charity delivery was thebrain-child of W. J. Mather, bursar of theUnlversity, to be used for the express pur­pose of prodding lagging pocketbooks ofthe members-at-large, is not definitelyknown. However, it is known that thelecture, occurring early in the quarter, wasmade available only to those more fortunatemembers able to present tuition receipts asa signal of good faith., Perhaps the uni­versity is too great and fine an institution,like the House of Morgan (see p. 27) tohave such ulterior motives. All possibleseats in Mandel Hall, where the elect werepermitted to sit, were distributed, however.This indication of a definite amount ofmoney shown to have entered Mr. Mather'stills as a result of tuition-tolls provedheartening to well-wishers who had fearedthat sufficient cash to wash traditionallydirty windows of Harper Library wouldnever be realized.That Mr. Woollcott was popular with NewPlan bookworms is attested by the sell-outon his one-night stand. Formerly a Man­hattan reporter and dramatic critic, thegenial story-teller of the air brought hisname into mouths of thousands through theradio sponsorship of the Cream of Wheatbreakfast food company. Somewhat, rotundhimself, Alex no doubt played an importantrole in convincing dubious klddles of theease with which they could "grow into a big man" as mothers so often coaxed atbreakfast tables.For subject of his exploration into studentfunny bones Mr. Woollcott chose "Confes­sions of a Dying Newspaper Man." At thetime of the announcement the visiting speak­er showed certain little unmistakable signsof life, but appropriateness of his title re­called a lecture of his in Mandel Hall onlya year previous, when money changerswere in the temple as he spoke under thewing of the Student Lecture Service, with­out benefit of Mr. Mather's tuition-receipts,however.

While the affair did not haveECHO, ,Tunr, W.16 !lCampus Affairs- (Continued)"PINKO" MARXTo read him was to err.the external significance of national politics,being conducted on something of a pennyante scale, it might have furnished con­siderable table talk before the dignifiedprofessors finally unlocked antennas. Itmight have, that is to say, did not studentpublications continue their noble avoidanceof yellow journalism to discreetly avoidoverpublicizing the' affair, interesting as itwas.To student breakfast readers the spectacleof two disseminators of truth coming atodds over the meaning of right, shedding.dignity and coats to figuratively beat eachother about the ears like a couple of pre­liminary boys in the back room of a saloon,afforded <I. rare treat, indeed.Moustached but serious young MaynardKrueger has often been looked at askanceby the old guard of the University faculty,who find it difficult always to reconcilechange with progress, see in Krueger sug­gestions of change, but, to their minds, noprogress. Accordingly, Krueger has, in thepast, forced many of the cautious gentryto see red on several occasions.Latest developments in the case sawKrueger denied as it sponsor to a newcampus organization, the Karl Marx society.It must be added, that fledgling groupswhen organized on campus must, to berecognized as such, present to the office ofthe dean of students a list of their obj ec­tives, together with the name of a facultymember who is acceptable to both the or­ganization and the aforementioned office.Using as objective appreciation of works ofKarl Marx, this new group found itself re­fused recognition as such, apparently sincethe deans' office read into their interpreta­tion of the word appreciation more demon­strative acts of affection. But when thissame group offered as their faculty spon­sor the name of Maynard Krueger, Scott, acting for the deans' office, refused toacknowledge Krueger as such, since ", . "it developed that there was a sufficient dif­ference of opinion between him and thisoffice relative to the proper functions andresponsibilities of a sponsor • . ."Action was immediate. The Daily lIfaioonscented a story, with potentialities if de­veloped properly. Knowing that the nameKarl Marx was poor news material, beingrecognized only by the relatively few whostill sampled widely in literature of thepast, they cast about for fresh bait. Hit­ting upon the American Student Union,also of recent formation, this group waspersuaded to submit as faculty sponsor thename of Maynard Krueger, among others.Upon receiving this list, Scott, apparentlyremembering his recent decision, refused toconsider Krueger as sponsor for this groupeither. Whereupon the Maroon carriedthe news in headlines the following morn­ing, while poor A.S.U. was left holding thebagful of publicity.Fur and feathers was the order in con­sequence. Acting on the principle that it isbetter to give than receive, Krueger insuredhimself of future blessings by unleashing hisrhetorical Sunday-punch at Scott. Explod­ing in an interview with a reporter, he said:"I cannot see how anyone can be acceptableas a faculty member and still be objection­able as sponsor of an organization. Sucha condition cannot last very long." As amatter of fact, it did not, but several thingshappened first. George A. Wiorks, deanproper of students, upheld Scott by stating:THE Boys OF '76Loyal oldeters follow the leader.. in accepting sponsorship for io. stu­dent organization the faculty member repre­sents the University administration in theconduct of student activities. Mr. Kruegerdoes not accept this point of view and isnot acceptable as a sponsor." FACULTY'S SCOTTFelt Krueger's Sunday-punch.Then followed a conference betweenWorks and Krueger in which difficult-ies ap­parently were successfully unkinked, pointsof view accepted, for a brief announcementfollowed which informed a waiting worldthat Krueger was now acceptable to any or­ganization wishing him for sponsor. Oilapparently had some effect on the troubledwaters.LABORThree Strikes-Out!While still a youngster bumming aroundthe towns of his native Indiana, Sidney Hy­man was also known as a good worker, aman among men, a fit example of whateverit is that Indiana is famed for. Thingshave changed a great deal since then, andnow, ensconced in wealth which comes withliving by one's wits (Hyman is currentBlackfriars author), irrepressible Mr. Hy­man bids fair to replace Alexander Wooll­cott (see p. 8) at some time in the futureas national raconteur.But in all due deference to gullibility ofthe gentleman, facts of his former effortsdo not withhold themselves too long. Itwas at a meeting of university Aides andMarshals last summer that the press dis­covered some bitter tales of his early strug­gle for existence, only half-successful asthat may have been.Amongst the notable assemblage presentat that time were J ohn Barden, formercampus iconoclast; Alice Johnson, formerlyof the Oak Park J ohnsons , Ruth Eddy,Maroon Babe Didrikson, with many othersof equal repute. Despite the presence ofAristotelian disciples, talk roamed fromone subj ect to another, arrived by deviousmeans to, of all things, an erudite discus­sion of methods of throwing water into theair. At this point opportunist Hyman in­tervened: "Yes, you may be surprised, but10 RClIo. JIlII!!. lU.1r;Campus Affairs-(Colltinued)there is a certain trick to even throwingwater into air!"Surprise was not evident on faces of thegroup but they settled back in resignation.It took considerable bravery to proceed.Man-of-the-hour Hyman was nothing daun­'ted: "A bridge constructing company," hecontinued, "was fortunate in securing myservices a few years back, and paid mehandsome wages for the apparently simpletask of spreading water over freshly laidconcrete in the bridges. I want you to knowthat it was more of a job than is at firstevident," The company nodded. Hot sum­mer days make many eyes heavy.Hyman flowed on: "The trick lies in put­ting enough water on to keep the concretemoist, and yet not dumping so much in onespot as to wash the bridge away." Irrever­ent Barden smirked as he watched the playof muscles under the speaker's short hair­cut. "And you may be sure, ladies andg:entlemen," concluded Indiana's Hyman,preparing for his downfall, "that it wasmany a day before I learned to spreadwater evenly over the concrete surface ofa bridge.""Yes;" interposed a tired voice from therear, "I ani sure, that by that time, muchwater flow'ed over the bridge."Mr. Hyman tried to Marshal all Aidepossible, hut the heat had reached most ofthem and the meeting was adjourned.W hat Price Labor?Statisticians at the University in the pastmonths have issued statements tending toprove that students with jobs were the bestscholars. Such an announcement according­l�' is very interesting, since most criticalpeople would expect quite opposite views.These latter would say that the benefit astudent gets from his studies varies, in gen­eral, directly with the amount of time hedevotes to them, therefore the choice post­positions in the scholastic track shouldmost probably go to non-working students.Put in other words, the student with a jobhas serious disadvantages in that he has,of necessity, put himself into .. viciouscircle, for the very labor that he must doto pay for courses at school occupies somuch time that he cannot do his best inthose courses.In attempting to find explanations, sev­eral solutions present themselves to an ob­server: 1) students with jobs are brighterthan those more fortunate in their choice ofparents; 2) students without jobs are lessbright that the pitiful laborers; 3) thestatisticians cannot reckon figures.For political purposes, the third solutionis eliminated at once. Upon critical exami­nation the first and second are seen to bealike, and by elimination we have hit uponthe point that our statisticians would havehit us. A natural reaction to this bit ofinformation would be to find jobs for every­one, and thus statisticians have wittingly, or not, worked themselves into anotherproblem.(( For additional reports on Labor, thereader is referred to: Annual Report ofthe Board of Vocational Guidance; AnnualReport of the University of Chicago Ly­ing-In Hospital.REFORESTATIONThrill of a LifetimeWith the coming of spring, blades ofgrass feel warmth of sunshine, birds exhila­ration of song, senior students feel down ontheir upper lips.

As a result, where once coughdrop manufacturers plugged with picturesof the bearded brothers, they now currytrade by talk of vitamines. Politicians areno linger distinguished by their hirsutepeculiarities as they are by charactertsticsrevealed in full length portraits. Moderncustoms are strange customs; nature in theraw was never like this.Comforting, then, is this senior traditionby which smooth-shaven contestants assem­ble at the C-bench before Cobb Hall, thereto be ruled eligible for contest purposes by the campus barber, insuring that all startfrom scratch, so to speak. From that pointon the moustache derby is in earnest as eachtries to nurse along the fullest crop offacial spinach to be found .on the quad­rangles, all in the course of two weeks.With coming of day of reckoning, they re­assemble, a winner is picked from amongstcultists by an impartial judge, and cere­monies follow. With dignity, the winner issubsequently thrown into the Botany Pond,,l pond which is every bit as wet as mostother ponds. In keeping with Universitypolicy of indiscrimination, the winner isfollowed in immersion by the loser, who isselected on a basis of velvety softness ofhis moustache if it is present, and on alacx of softness if has not yet made anappearance, Then, to prevent hard feelingshy those not fortunate in being at eitherextreme, the boys continue distribution ofhonors by tossing each other into the murkydepths, which process continues until allcontestants are mollified, or until the pondis sponged dry.At this point, many spectators are un­willingly introduced into the spirit of things,with various outrages resulting from havinginky waters close over a perfectly good suitwith the owner inside. Curiously enough,spectators then lose interest, scatter to thewinds, leaving hair-brained, hair-mindedseniors to play alone. No' fun remaining inplaying before an empty house, they, too,next leave the Botany Pond to reassume itscrystal-clear nature �dth passage of weeks,dash to frat houses where sundry half­hearted attempts at cleansing are" made be­fore returning to classes.REFORMNo Student FlowersA new high was reached on campus lastfall when freshmen leaders, proceeding inthe same bold manner which characterizedtheir earlier activities, initiated .. startlingreform movement, struck to the very coreof the causes of this depression, spon­sored a formal dance at which no corsageswere allowed. At first viewed with surpriseby male students, who had been forced tokeep one eye on the pocketbook, the 'otheron their dates, to the obvious benefit ofboth, the movement grew rapidly until allwere in line except the girls themselves.In short, the idea was a grand success, sincethe latter did not count anyway, experiencehav�ng shown that they usually pulled op­poslte straws no matter what the issue was.Florists, curiously enough, did not think�uch of the proposal, objected strongly,hinted darkly, then finally reconciled them­selves to fate by creating, instead, a Send­[lowers-to-Asnit lIIinnie day, thus reducingto two the days of the year in which con­scientious family men were not imposedupon to remember some one relative inparticula r, the florists in general. N everthe­less, corsages at the dance were as scarceas seniors at a senior meeting, but a goodtime was had by all, was reported.11Campus Affairs-{ Continued)H o using HorrorsAmong latest of reports to refer to de­plorable living conditions borne by citizensof these United States, is that concerningPullman situations.Healthy, hardy, Paul Amundsen was atribute to Scandinavian vitality when dis­covered by the press.

Because of bounding activity, he wasfound invaluable to University of Chicagobasketball success, rated a place on thesquad which traveled to other schools forgames. But after several of these tripshad passed, Paul lost his blooming look,aged rapidly, found his basketball efficiencyimpaired. It was quite awhile before thecause was discovered. Then it was foundthat living conditions in Pullman berthsduring the travelling had been at fault.Poor Paul had been forced to sleep ingrotesque positions in order to get all ofhimself into a berth, and accordingly hishealth had suffered, his growth" had beenstunted.How many other happy young childrenon journeying basketball teams had thusbeen afflicted is not known, cannot be esti­mated. But that reform is necessary is atonce evidenced. Leaders point out that suc­cessful cage squads are obtained only whensleeping conditions insure proper rest. Atpresent groups are actively campaigning,doing everything possible to awaken alethargic public.CATASTROPHED ecapitatio nAmong other criminal acts which causedmembers of the student body during thepast year to doubt their neighbors was thetheft of the only piece of statuary in CobbHall, its substitution by '" pumpkin head.The situation was a more tense one thanis at first revealed.First to have an endowed building namedafter him, S.

Chalkwhiteclear through, as unshaven as any seniorduring moustache-race season (see p. 10),it was indeed " fitting inspiration to seek­ers of Truth.Subsequently' it was placed in its presenthazardous perch over the stairway of thebuilding which bears its name. Whether itwas there to serve as an inspiration to high­er things, to spur sluggard stair-climbers tohigher flights by imminence of its toppling-is not actually known. For years, how­ever, the head of Cobb hung like Damocles' sword over figures of the last members ofthe line waiting to get into lihrury threetloors up.But upon disappearance of this glorifiedremnant of the Cobb torso, student con­cern, activity should have been a hubbub.Unfortunately, it was not. Students seemedentirely content with the pumpkin headwhich replaced; after all, pumpkin headshad held high positions in the University bc­fore this episode.Unflattering though it may seem, manydid not notice any change. Others who did,commented on the improvement, hazardedsundry guesses as to the contemporaryschool executive thus honored. Remarks, ingeneral, conveyed the impression that ifthings must fall, it is better to have one'shead bashed by a pumpkin than by a chunkof marble. The change seemed permanent.In a few days, however, the missing figureresumed his niche, with face a bit whiterPUMPKIN SUSPECTDid he escape with Cobb?than usual, but something to be expectedfollowing a first vacation in years. Thoughthe return was as secret as the leave ofabsence, it cannot be laid to efficiency ofthe campus constabulary, known as campuscops to laymen. No, the stolen goods wererecovered much too soon. Perhaps this,too, shall enter the criminal records withthe Lindbergh case, and other famous un­solved mysteries.Gas MenaceReports from the front-row of a homeeconomics class tell of terrible deeds per­petrated in that particular section of cam­pus.Lecturing on certain methods of prepar­ing chocolate creams (which may seempretty far removed from horrors of war atpresent), the lecturer gave a final cautionagainst leaving candy stand too long. With this latter treatment, it was stated, certainorganisms start gas formation within a bon­bon for example, causing it to burst.Full significance was not lost upon Mir­ror's Virginia New, however, for after classshe sought out the lecturer, reminded thelatter of her discussion of bon-bons explod­ing, then asked: "... whether it wouldn'tbe better in that case to call those candies­bomb-bombs ?"DEPARTMENTOF JUSTICEBlood & ThunderLatest complaint to reach the depart­ment, demanding righting of a great wrong,was that lodged by various faculty mem­bers of the Business School against thebooming classroom voice of Lewis C. Sor­rell, professor of transportation & traffic.Thundering out his points, like a bleacher­ful of football fans would roar for anofficial's hide, Sorrell was reputed to be ableto command attention of even the cor­nermost nodders of a lecture room aslarge as' that of Mandel Hall. But he didnot do his thundering within the safe con­fines over the firm foundations of that vastarea. Instead, his reverberations bouncedaround in cheese-box rooms of Haskell hall,foster mother of the country's future busi­ness leaders and more recently credited withthe rise of J. P. Morgan's Ell Patterson(see p. 27). Still, if Sorrell gave all hislectures at night when his fellow professorswere safely tucked in bed or were stillchalking cues in the Quadrangle Clubbilliard room, then little damage would bedone. But while Sorrell could not do hisilluminating by day, he certainly did histhundering at that time, and Haskell's class­room walls being unusually thin, teachers inadjacent rooms found themselves inadvert­ently answering Sorrell's questions.Most recent victim of periodic storms wasTheodore Yntema, professor of statistics.Blessed with unusual persuasive abllitles,Yntema found it unnecessary to use moredemonstrative methods of pitching his SUIl­day-school pieces at the children, was ac­cordingly characterized by a soft voicewhich insured rest to all those seated be­hind the third row. Assigned by ficklenessof fate to a lecture room next to that ofThor-like Sorrell, Yntema immediately ex­perienced difficulties as he noticed studentsin the first row cupping their ears to cap­ture his elusive pearls of wisdom. So diffi­cult a time did he have sputtering his spielbetween Sorrell's periods & commas, thathe was indignantly contemplating formalcomplaint when, the last straw fell as Sor­rell, storming in the next room, suddenlyslammed shut the transom between the twoclassrooms, thus effectively silencing thefeeble vocal efforts of Yntema, which ap­parently were too noisy for Sorrell.12FOREIGN NEWSKELLY HALLThe FrontAlthough not contacted for some time, lastreports from the front are that women's resi­dence halls have been reduced to war rations,and residents unable to flee due to circum­stances.

Accordingly,Thomas Stauffer and John Morris, studentsat the University, visited her last summerbefore leaving on a trip to the British Isles,asked for important points of interest to beseen before their visit was terminated."Oh yes," said Miss Flint, warmed imrne­diately to the subject, "you must, by allmeans, be sure to visit London and see theswans there. \'ery lovely.""Swans?" frowned the two seekers of ad­venture. "Why yes," Miss Flint replied."They are very beautiful. So beautiful, infact, that London is noted for them." Tom& John looked at 'each other incredulously.Miss Flint laughed, said: "You know, boys,whenever I hear or read about beautiful swans, I always think of a story I once read.In it, swimming over a crystal-clear lake,were two swans." At these words John puthis fingers in his ears, rolled his eyes naugh­tily. Continuing, Miss Flint remarked:"They were having a wonderful time swim­ming along, when one of them turned tothe other, spread his wings real wide, likethis, then said 'God, I feel graceful as allhell!' ,,*What's in a Name?Among the sights which every visitor tothe University of Chicago should viewalong with the chapel, Oriental Institute,and other permanent campus structures, isNels Fuqua. Actually graduated by officialdecree some years back, Nels has unoffi­cially refused the honor. He is the Mid­way's flowering example of the ever-bloom­ing undergraduate. Though deserving ofmany an adjective, he has not left campusoften enough, however, to merit the term,"perennial."At present, Nels has won himself honorsat the famous Gilkey afternoon teas, thoseconducted by a more popular member ofthe Universlty faculty. With a gallantry un­matched by even the professional Phi KappaPsis, he has flattered himself into trusts ofmany middle-aged women who have linedGilkey walls, women who should have knownbetter. But that Nels was a fit confidantefor. any age was revealed by this report,which reached the desks of ECHO by usualdevious routes.With timidity usually evidenced in pres­ence of a shining socialite, " young coupleapproached Nels at one of the above teas,told him they were leaving for England,asked aid of his British acquaintanceship ingetting settled there."Torn & John saw the swans.-ED.LONDON'S SWANS Black Star Fuqua thought, spoke: "Why, yes, yes.You just go to Mr. So-and-so in Londo�.He's a very good friend of mine.

"Why,Nels Fuqua. Don't you know Nels Fuqua?"The gentleman thought a while, scratchedhis chin, soberly said: "Nels Fuqua? No,I'm afraid I don't know HER!"GERMANYWordsThis article might very well be classifiedwith dispatches from Australia. Consider­ing the situation, the editors of ECHOmight very well have labeled it so, butchose its present heading in deference tosuperior ranking of one of its chief char­acters.A grasping of the story would involvean acquaintanceship with Griffith Taylor,most interesting character on campus. Heis the fellow Who strides alongside the hugebrief-case which clears campus walks sev­eral times daily. Although hailing fromAustralia, Griffith is not the son of anAustralian bushman. No, he is the son ofGriffith Taylor, former professor in thedepartment of Geography at the University.Accordingly, one might expect him to besomewhat different from the ordinary runof students. He is. Also a member ofBeta Theta Pi, fraternity whose memberssay their pieces only after due cranial set­ting-up exercises, he might be expected tothink differently than the ordinary run ofstudents. He does.The following occurred in a ScientificGerman class conducted by William Kurath,a good instructor and a courageous one.Arriving at one of those impasses found inGerman and all languages, the class stum­bled on the definition of a word pronouncedas "pounce" in English, meaning an oldmethod of drying ink by sprinkling finesand on the letters,Glaring around the room, Kurath soughtknowledge from his class, asked: "Is thereanyone who knows the meaning of thisword?" Only the hand of Griffith Taylorwent up. Kurath waited. Still Taylor'Shand was the only one in sight. Then re­luctantly: "Mr. Taylor!""Mister Ku ... rath," drawled Grif­fith, at his two mile-an-hour clip, "could it... by any chance ... refer to the mannerin which a cat leaps upon a mouse?"Although reduced to stitches the class wassuccessfully removed from the room at theend of the period. Rut not before Kurath,ECHO, June, 1936 13Foreign N ews-( Continued)who has no rubber vertebrae, expressedvery forcibly to Mr. Taylor, his feelingsconcerning M.r. Taylor. It might be addedthat Mr. Kurath, despite his lack of tact,is still employed by the same Universitywhich houses both the department of Ger­man and the department of Geography.CHINAEast & WestIrresponsible darling of Foster Hall thatshe is, Marion Faget recently gave maids atthat rooming-house scandal to fill off-dutytime.

Ac­cordingly it is not surprising to find thatthe student selected for this position shouldreceive some recompense. It is this hard­earned money which makes the office valu­able.Leading the list of eligibles for this yearwere names of Indiana's Robert McQuilkin,a Phi Kappa Psi, and Illinois' EverettStorey, a Sigma Chi. Both had about equalqualifications as far' as an impartial ob­server was concerned. Seniority, experi­ence, and the. rest were apparently equallydistributed between them, yet a choice wasnecessary. Upon final reckoning, McQuilkinwas deemed the better, for reasons too tech­nical for this writing'.I-Iullabaloo immediately followed through summer actions of Mr. Storey, revealingsubsequently that it was not the sweetheartof Sigmi Chi that he was singing about.C ries of partiality, fraternity politics, andsundry prejudices' were later vent near thevicinity of Lexington Hall, home of campuspublications. So loud did the clamor be­come that dean William Scott. took thematter in hand, investigated thoroughly. Inthe end he not only justified the Dailysl aroon. in its selection but expressed wonderthat it should have had any doubt about itschoice at all. The matter was apparentlyclosed.Weeks later the ,1IIl/,uu/i. felt a noticeableshr-inkage in advertising, unaccountable byusual conditions of fluctuation.

Confronted by Storey at one time dur­ing the session, McQuilkin bluntly askedhim if he had had anything to do with theloss of advertising. Not only refusing toanswer, Storey turned his back to the ques­tioner, walked out. Drama was in order.Still later, during a school vacation, a. newperiodical made its appearance on campus,called itself the Jlidway lIfirror.

However, the lat­ter not only aired his mind to the formerbut hung up his receiver before Scott hadhad his turn to talk. Camels' backs areeventually broken. It is possible for oneto hang up a telephone conversation witha dean, but one must first allow him oppor­tunity to air his mind through the conven­tional apertures. The case was reinvesti­gated, redecided, and the originator of theJHdway JI il'ru r asked to cease registrationin school.

With cessa­tion of firing during the recent "red investi­gation," ink-stained members of the news­paper corps found ample material in Maroonsport history.In unstoppable Berwanger, uncanny­shooting Haarlow, and world's record­breaker Ellinwood, there was little room forcomplaint against lack of boldface. Usualtruckloads of publicity also preceded theproductions of Mirror, Blackfriars, andDramatic Association.Perhaps choicest in press-agenting of theyear was that recorded last winter. Alwaysanxious to convey an impression of erudi­tion, the University sought at that time ad­ditional methods of conveying this impres­sion to the uninformed public. , The pointseized upon at this time for exploitation wasthe great amount of "boning" practised incampus study-rooms at night. Accordingly,downtown dailies carried the screamingheadline:MIDNIGHT OIL, NOT GIN,FLOWS ON MIDWAY CAMPUSIn the article following student readerswere amazed to find that they were prettyserious about it all, that the clock alwaysshowed wee hours before they finished workon the term paper, that they were a prettymild form of the rah-rah collegiate typeusually depicted as fritting away idle hoursin questionable haunts.As if to bear out veracity of the article,accompanying it was a cut of Miss AdeleSandman, senior. extraordinary, and chiefgossip-column scribbler for the Daily Ma­roon, student newspaper, and Phoenix, stu­dent humor magazine.

Gale for challenging lawsof probability. The story, as related byNiel F. Beardsley, instructor in physics, isthat dean Gale was consulted when Harperlibrary was first constructed, way backwhen, over the feasibility of installing light- ning rods on the new edifice, inasmuch asthey would entail great expense. The dean,however, advised that they be left off, sincethe possibility of a lightning stroke doingdamage would be exceedingly remote. Ac­cordingly, the building assumed its presentmagnificent size without the scientific doo­dads. Some little time later, however,lightning did inflect slight damage on thelibrary, to the chagrin of the physicalsciences division. Some thirty years havepassed, however, with no further 'heavenlyvisitations until that reported during thelecture of Alexander Woollcott (see P: 8).---<?-All-Star Hocus-PocusEchoing from the past was the story of acourt trial involving legality of the Illinois'sales tax as applied to certain commodities,a trial which drew in some of the best scien­tific minds of the country, includint severalof the more experienced brains from ourown campus.In seeking about for money with whichto feed the hungry, clothe the naked, thestate of Illinois hit upon the happy device oftaxing sales of all articles. Objections werenot long in coming, and foremost amongstCOSMIC RAY's COMPTON... electricity .. shocking .these was that given by the powerful publicutility companies of the state. To theirvery humble minds, they were immune tothis latest legal form of theft, as the prod­uct which they distributed, electricity, shouldnot be listed as a commodity since, theysaid, it was not a material thing, was notsomething tangible like bacon and eggs, orthe old man's tobacco, 01' the yard of cheese­cloth for the family dusting.Resentful over this opposition from thehumble utilities, the state became quite in­censed, made something of it, in fact, made a trial of it. Drafting a corps of scientistsfrom the University of Chicago faculty thestate put its foot on the rail and aligneditself across the bar from the utilities, whohad done a similar bit of recruiting withinits own ranks, mustering up the renownedname of Irving Langmuir from the pay­roll list. Proceedings then followed whichattempted to show that electricity was orwas not a taxable commodity.Marked by numerous high points, the trialcould have been interesting if only for thefact that the learned doctor of jurisprudencesprawling on the bench was quite un­learned in the subject of electricity, beyondperhaps, an occasional experience or twowith the electric pad which is quacked asbeneficial for abdominal goiter. Accord­ingly, Dr. Anton J. Carlson was called uponto demonstrate the tangibility of electricityin that it could actuallly be tasted, and alive wire was then touched to tongue ofthe skeptical judge who was shocked tofind it actually did impart a certain taste,though hardly as palatable a one as givenby a healthy beefsteak dripping with onions.Next Dr. Harvey B. Lemon, of physics,showed that .. difference between positiveand negative electricity did exist, could bedetected by the relative distances the twokinds would traverse up one's arm. Againthe judge sacrificed himself by his in­credulity, had to be shown. All the while,those courtroom spectators who were moreversed in their scientific dabblings found anamusing spectacle in the sight of Dr. ArthurCompton, cosmic ray cosmopolite on oppo­site sides of the fence from Dr. Langmuir,who is also well known in most other lang­uages, including the Scandinavian.With such an array of guest artists aspresented by the state, it is no wonder thatthe utilities later admitted defeat, despitethe valiant efforts of Langmuir, who cannotbe blamed at all, since he probably realizedthat he was on the losing side from the start,but found himself forced to pitch ball any­way because of his company affiliations.fI Having securely niched his claim to fameby writing a book on physics, Dr. HenryLemon risked losing it again, allowed it tobe read by J ames Weber Linn, caustic com­mentator of the English department (seep. 43). Considering that he had not beenexposed to the freedom of the Chicago Planand required to pass the physical sciencessurvey course for which the book had beenwritten, Linn found it remarkably easyreading, made it a point told the same toone of Lemon's assistants upon inquiry, andsaid: "It was a good book, simple, and ... "At this remark the assistant is reported tohave considered his own rocky scholasticpast, moaned: "That's just the trouble. Hemakes everything 'so damn much simplerthan it really is!"ChaosBy a recent announcement, ProfessorAugustus Mumblepeg claims to have takensurprise out of weather. He thus deals ..death blow to the slowly dying art of con­versation as practised by perennial hang­ers-on in the faculty's Quadrangle Club.ECHO, June, 1936TRAVELFootlooseProbably no college president in theUnited States does so much, is seen solittle as is Bob Hutchins, affable youngman who pushes the most buttons at theUniversity of Chicago. Despite thefact that he put the university back on aninteresting as well as paying basis, he hasnot remained on campus long enough toreceive the oh-ing and ah-ing one wouldexpect from the thousands of students whohave profited from his revolutionary edu­cational policies. Instead, he has madehimself conspicuous by his absence, left onlong trips to innumerable points of thecompass, or kept himself discreetly undercover even when he was present on theMidway. It has become customary in thepast, therefore, 'for students to look for­ward to graduation as a, means of "meetingthe president," and no doubt this has hadits effect in stimulating scholars to obtaintheir degrees as rapidly as possible.CI. Arriving from Washington, D. C., ayoung man who had apparently traveledlittle, sought the advice of one who hadtraveled much, walked into the office ofnone other than president Hutchins, in­formed him that he had come to help revivescholasticism at the University of Chicago,and ". . . whom could he see first, please?"Chicago'S man of parts, however, wiselyreferred him to Richard P. McKeon, deanof the division of Humanities, who cau­tioned the young man that this was rathera hot spot for one interested in such arevival. At this writing the neo-scholastl­cist IS understood to be at Loyola Univer­sity, still wondering where he obtained anidea that the Midway campus was a picnicground for wandering scholasticists,--+---MechanicsThat young genius has a flair for theopen road is attested by the story whichGeorge Spencer Monk, assistant professorin the department of Physics tells of him­self. Mechanically inclined at an early age,Monk found outlet in an old car which hedrove when possible; when possible, becausethe rear axle of the conveyance had thehabit of breaking when once under way.Scientific method notwithstanding, the phy­sics pr.ofessor finally got ahead of the con­traption by carrying half-a-dozen spareaxles before starting.(I Among things which helped cure his loveof travel were the many visits paid to Monkby his father-in-law. An engineer by trade,this relative frequently finished his day'swork in the middle of the night, when hedropped off at the town in which Monk wasliving, raising the latter at all hours of themorning for a little chat.-0--Psychology & Memory TrainingThat the proverbial absent-minded pro­fessor does have his counterparts in actu- ality is the point revealed by AaronBrumbaugh, dean of students in the Col­lege, in his story about Arthur Bills, assis­tant professor of psychology. Mr. Bills,because of his lapses of memory, often re­linquishes to his wife duties of driving thefamily car. On this particular occasionDean Brumbaugh relates that he and Mrs.Bills were personally being chauffered bypsychology's Bills when the latter calmlydrove through a red light at an intersection,was impatiently asked the whyfore by hiswife. Mr. Bills only ,turned his head inpuzzlement, then blandly asked: "What, amI driving?"----0-Cagers' CutupsMen will be boys, but never the twainshall meet, or words to that effect appar­ently was the motto of this year's touringcage squad.

But its recordof safety was not obtained without strug­gle, stated Edward Cullen, former Maroontrack captain and footballer. Cullen, aresident of Winnetka, which is about twoflaps away from Evanston as the crow flies,undoubtedly evidenced twinges of neigh­borly envy when he said that Evanstoniteswere loath to go to the beach during thesummer for fear of drowning and thusjeopardizing the community's safety record.Things were pretty bad, continued Cullen,and he even suspected that when Evanstonfellows got pretty badly cracked up inautomobile accidents, that the townspeopledragged them up to Winnetka to die.----0-Fond MemoriesNo account of travel by members of theUniversity body would be complete withouta repetition, however brief, of the earlierdays on a vaudeville circuit spent by HaroldSwenson, assistant professor of psychology.Armed only with a home-made cigar-boxukelele, having .. partner fortified with aten-cent store musical instrument, the twobarnstormed along the Pacific coast forsome while.

Dr. and Mrs. Gilkey are the officialmasters-of-ceremony in the huge new chapelof the University which fronts the Midway.But despite their office, Dr. and Mrs. Gilkeyare still very human people. Accordingly,when telephones rang at that early hour, theGilkeys were abed, as were most humansof the region.The ringing was stopped by the Deanhimself, as might have been expected. Uponlifting the receiver he was informed thatthe early caller was Jan Garber, speakingfrom the Trianon ballroom. "Who?" in­quired the one in night clothes. Why, JanGarber. "Never ·heard of him," was thesleepy reply. Well surely the Doctor livedin Chicago, near the Trianon. "Yes." Andstill he didn't know Jan Garber? "No."Well, the caller announced finally, this isJan Garber.Settling into a chair, the chapel's man ofGod received this news with surprise. Itseems that there was a drummer in hisband, that is 'in Jan Garber's band, whowanted to get married right away andcould the Doctor open up the chapel andconduct the wedding? "It is impossible todo same at this hour of the morning," in­formed Dean Gilkey. But we're not inthat much of a hurry, he was then told,we'll give you enough time to dress and runout and open up. "Nope," said the Dean.Well, surely there is some way you cantake care of us, persisted la Garber.After two more nickels had passed intothe toll-boxes, Dean Gilkey consented toperform the wedding ceremony at thattime, but at his own home. Jan was im­measureably pleased.With the knot finally spliced, his drummerevidently off beat for the first time, Janturned to the tired Dean, beamed a munifi­cent smile and informed him not worry, he,Jan Garber, would take care of him, andsend him something real nice in the verynext mail.Dr. Gilkey, of course, anxiously scannedthe subsequent deliveries by the postman.A few days later he was not disappointed,received a large package. But althoughJ an Garber, with all the modesty of his pro­fession, referred to himself as the "idol ofthe air lanes," he evidently forgot that theman of God might not be prone to idolatry,for in the large package, autographed withan extra handsome flourish, he had sent aphotograph of . . . Jan Garber!II Although somewhat in ignorance of thedance, Dean Gilkey has successfully resistedtemptation of other, better known, vices. After splicing the bridal knot of .. coupleof love birds at the house of one of ourbetter known deans, he had a dish of punchfrom the host, but no-noed a second, saying:"It is very nice and all that but I reallymust be going. .After all, even in yourhouse I think it would be most inappro­priate for the preacher to be carried out."---4----MessiahBecause others bearing his surname havepreceded him in history, Mr. Jay FinleyChrist of the business school faculty some­times finds himself in peculiar circum·stances. Being something of a story-tellerhimself (see p. 23) Mr. Christ related inillustration this one about a past trip hehad contemplated taking to Mexico. Un­acquainted with that country, Mr. Christvisited a friend, Mr. X, was insured that anassociate of Mr. X down below the RioGrande would make his stay comfortable.Confident that his friend would contact thisassociate, the business school pedagogueleft for the south, but stopped for a nightsomewhere in Texas. While there he de­cided to notify the friends of Mr. X thatthe visitation was upon them, and sent atelegram which might have been:FRIEND OF MR XMEXICO CITYAM NOW IN TEXAS STOP WILLARRIVE IN MORNING STOP PLEASEARRANGE FOR LODGING STOPJ CHRISTIn a few hours, Christ relates, the answerarrived in Texas, as:J CHRISTSOMEWHERE IN TEXASRECEIVED YOUR WIRE CONCERN·ING LODGINGS STOP AM SWEEP­ING OUT CATHEDRAL STOPSAINT PETER--4-Campus CreedOriginally known to be of Baptist origin,the University has since revealed itself to bethe home of many creeds, foster-father ofmany step-children, hen over many duck­lings.Most recent example of this religious in­discrimination was that of the cult knownas Submergists, who yearly convert newmembers, publicly baptize them in the over­runnings from whatever cracked sewer-pipesare in the neighborhood. Though somewhat baffling to other members of the stu­dent body who are accustomed to stagingtheir ceremonies on a somewhat more re­fined and less blatant scale, they have toler ..antly allowed the Submergists to practisetheir art on campus, even to the extent orallowing the Botany Pond to be the baptis­mal fount, thus relieving the cultists of theanxiety involved in depending on the ca­price of a sewer-pipe or that of the com­missioner of streets. Due to the extremedangers incurred, photographers have here­tofore shied at snapping pictures of thegroup during their open season on converts.E'CHO, Jsme, 1936ED UCA TIONRacing FormBorn with the purpose of ". . . lettingstudents set' their own pace" the ChicagoPlan had many features which allowed thecerebrally unique to progress much fasterthan ordinary educational regimentationwould permit. No longer were students re­quired to serve their four year draft beforebeing dismissed by the flick of a sheepskininto hungry jaws of a waiting world. Nowthey were permitted to face the fangs whiletheir flesh was still more tender, their mindsstill fresher with truths to lighten paths ofmen. Though some features' of the ChicagoPlan, as non-compulsory class attendance,were enjoyed by all its beneficiaries, othermore spectacular ones, as the granting ofdegrees when requirements were fulfilled,whether the recipient was a senior or anoverlybright freshman, apparently did notappeal to many.But to those who preferred to do theirown setting, the pace often became a race,course content became secondary to coursenumbers, haste meant no waste-of time,as the exceptional sought to obtain theiralphabetical suffixes in record-making clock­ings. Always alluring, too, we,�e beams ofproud parents, bangs of indifferent newscameras; the public was always interestedin prodigies; it helped them forget the lastcrop which made the ever-human mistakeof growing up. Accordingly, dailies fromtime to time flaunted pictures, descriptions,of Midway marvels who dashed throughtheir textbooks, passed their courses beforethe average mutt got around to asking pro­fessors over to the fraternity house fordinner some night.First came Lewis Dexter, bemoccasinedyoung eccentric in Social Science-he lastedonly 2% years before honorarily dismissed.Most recent to merit everlasting fame wasDonald MacMurray, who went through thetedious business of getting the bachelorsdegree in two (2) quarters, or six (6)months, has plans for getting an M. A. in afew more swings of a pendulum. He, too,was in the division of Social Sciences, acoincidence leading one to believe that thestudy of man is every bit as baffling as thesurvey course lecturers would have us be­lieve. In fairness to MacMurray, it must berevealed that he did not begin his career ofrapid education upon exposure to the Chi­cago Plan, for he was already at the busi­ness of sponging up knowledge while ingrammar school, from which he graduatedat the age of ten. Although he finished highschool at the advanced age of 15, he mighthave escaped at 13 had not be failed to in­clude in his schedule a course in physicaltraining, or perhaps it was some other edu­cational doodad. At this point MacMurrayfelt need for relaxation, took to chess, re­mained at this hobby for four years beforeagain feeling the need for relaxation. News­paper accounts never did reveal whether hefinished his game or not. Relaxation in this case meaning study,plenty of it, MacMurray enrolled at theUniversity of Chicago because there, he felt,he could get plenty of it. As a result, heworked hard, studied at times from 13 to14 hours in a row, and all this as a studentin the division of Social Sciences. The re­sult hal! been previously stated.Despite many smiles from the daddies ofthe Chicago Plan, despite flatteries of see­ing his picture in the country's leadingInternationalSPEEDSTER MACMURRAYwhat difference when cfellow gets his degree?"newspapers and magazines, including cne ofthe latter which loaned the accompanyingcut to ECHO, MacMurray is still the type ofyoung man one can take home to meet thefamily at SUJ1day dinners. He still walksin the same plane as other, less gifted stu­dents, which probably led many to ask rea­sons for his haste in leaving the University.He confesses his reasons are purely per­sonal, but justifies his speed, as: "If a per­son is going to spend all his life studying,then what difference does it make when hedoes get his degree?"CI. "One good thing about the Chicago Plan,"Phineas Indritz, sage of the undergraduatelaw school, is reported to have said, "is thatit cures one's mother of bragging about herson."Knowledge & UtilityAlert, young, Sydney Zatz had the repu­tation of being a prodigy amongst prodigiesin the University Law school. The Lawschool does have some repute as being asfull of mental phenoms as the ocean is fullof fish, which isn't such a bad analogy, butZatz had the market cornered when honorswere distributed" Though envious, 'fellow 25students recognized this, used the fact oftento their own advantage.In one of the classes, to illustrate, anexamination was being announced at thetime. Briefly, the instructor stated: "Forthis examination you students may bringanything you wish-books, notes, papers­anything desired.'"After half-a-minute of hand-waving fromthe dunce corner of the room, a voice piped:"Teacher, may I bring Zatz?"CI. Faster than President Robert MaynardHutchins is Earl F. Simmons, 26-year-oldgraduate with honors from the Law schoollast year. Simmons was a special instructorin the school two quarters later; it requiredtl year for lIutchins to step into the facultyof the Yale Law school in 1925.PhilosophicalWhile educational courses may makeeducators, social science courses makesocialists, philosophy courses do not alwaysmake philosophers out of their students. Mr.Charles Morris, associate professor of philos­ophy, discovered this during the examina­tion he gave to his class in Movements ofThought this winter, Apparently some stu­dents felt the questions to tax them toomuch, for several rose from their seats after... few minutes of the period had passed,quietly left the room. One young ladystuck it out for another half hour, then,stormed out. The closing classroom doordid not, however, shut out the remark shelet loose as she reached the outside corri­dor and despairingly shouted, "Aw, nuts!"-0---Out of Sight, Although distinctly left-handed in educa­tional circles, the radical Chicago plan hasbeen well received during its short existenceby those students whose welfare' it is pro­posed to assist. Among welcome featuresis that of non-compulsory class attendanceby which privilege students are not con­victed of heinous scholastic negligence shouldthey miss classes due to those quirks offate which might keep them up to weesmall hours the night previous. That theinnovation was well received is exemplifiedby the recent case of Mr. Wright, only oneof many not included in University litera­ture to prospective students.Large, robust, nicknamed "Tubby," Clar­ence Wright was of the type expected to befound on football practice fields duringthis particular autumn quarter. As a mat­ter of history, that is exactly where he was.That time would be precious to one en­grossed through <t good part of the day inthe various mechanics of piling humanfigures is readily understood. But that per­haps should be revealed by this account.Samuel H. Nerlove conducts classes inthe business school in a manner that is high­ly informative as well as somewhat enter­taining. Accordingly, tbe first day of thefall semester saw in ranks of arrivals thefaces of both Mr. Wright and of LloydMerritt Bush, redwood-sized gridiron manfrom California. In accordance with for­mality both stalwarts turned in printed28To the GRADUATES of 1936 we give our best wishes andcongratulations!To the classes of 1937-1938-1939 we wish a happy vacation.We shall be ready to greet you again next autumn.

Accordingly, actingwith applied maxims of business logic, Mr.Christ one day contacted a' cement con­tractor to lay a drive from garage to street,perform good work at reasonable cost. Thecontract was duly drawn, signed by bothparties.In the route of the future driveway, itmust be added, was a lamp-post, tall andthin. Mr. Christ felt, however, that con­tractors handled all such complications andthrew himself completely into his work atschool while the road-constructing was inoperation. Upon arrival of the ribbon­snipping day, the finished strip was a beauti­ful product.. White, smooth, it stretchedgracefully from garage out to street. But10, right where drive touched the main roadstood a lamp-post, tall and thin, right inthe middle of the freshly-laid concrete.

Those off-campus probably knowher, too, for the Chicago Daily N ew.r, run­ning ... numbered series of articles on Chi­cago artists, referred to her as: "MaudeMcVeigh Hutchins, Chicago's No. 41 Artist."But the young mistress of the houseunderneath the chapel bells actually sculptsand paints very wen, last fall holding ...one-woman exhibition of her creations.*Billed as a display of "diagrammatics"the works needed no such strange term tobefuddle unsuspecting gallery-tourers. Orig­inally compounded by Mrs. Hutchins andMortimer Adler, smart-alec young professorin the Law school, or perhaps in the depart­ment of Philosophy, at the University, theterm "diagrammatics," meant ". . . pureform in line and words, without the burdenof intelligible ideas." To the uninitiated,however, much was found desirable besidesdefinition.Take the case of Pauline Muirhead, frankyoung first-year student, who went to visitthe above exhibition with her friend andconfidante, Edith McCarthy. Bright, typicalof Chicago's scholastic heritage, resentingthe press for the compliment, little Paulinewas eventually destined to come to promi­nence, but her series of comments at thegalleries only hastened the process.After strolling rather aimlessly from onegroup of nudes to a bunch of grapes, thento another sporadic assortment of the un­clothed, Pauline felt a little disappointedwith it all. Despite efforts of the older,more mature Miss McCarthy to make allpoints clear, impetuous Pauline finallystopped short, grimaced, then made epochalremark number one: "Well, if we oweall this to Mr. Adler," she snorted, "I'd saywe could do without Mr. Adler."Redoubling efforts, Edith tried once moreto make Pauline aesthetic-minded, pulledher around rooms again, ended in exhaustionbefore a painting of a solitary nude. Pau­line peered up at the climax of her secondtour of Mrs. Hutchin's works, made his­tory with comment number two: "Well, allI've got to say about this one is ... how inthe world did she ever contrive to get thatarm out of its shoulder?Shocked, Edith turned around in dismay,found herself face to face with Maude Me­Veigh Hutchins, being eyed with the samecoldness with which hubby slayed the Sen­ate investigators (TIME, June 24, 1935).Embarrassed, Edith wheeled, rushed hercharge from the room, then scolded: "Pau­line, you shouldn't have said what you did.Mrs. Hutchins herself was standing in thedoorway in back of you!"Bright little Pauline, a student in theBiological Sciences survey course and only*In the Guest Art galleries, Fine Arts Building,Chicago, Illinois. recently posted on the many joints in thehuman plumbing, let forth a squeal of de­light, said: "Wonderful.

One of the students gavehelpful bits of information, and in tryingto describe Adler's minute precision, amongother things, told how Adler carried aroundwith him a miscellaneous collection ofwatches, Doth for pocket and for wrist, con­sulted them all before finally dismissinghis verbal punching-bags.

June, lDSr,M US I C"W ord Mouthers"Vigorous leaders in promoting music oncampus are certain groups of male studentswhich periodically assemble before women'sdormitories on otherwise dreary eveningsand there burst into song. While resultshave not always been most harmonic, being,in general, something between pretty awfuland worse yet, the volume at times provokedmust have been stimulating, to say the least,to those serious members of the gentler sexwho have found it advisable to pass theevenings in study.Palm-pounding not being an effectivemeans of showing appreciation at the dis­tances usually separating vocalists andlisteners-the singers usually being well outof firing range-women residents learned toshow their approbation by hearty slammingof windows. As a result, hardly a concertpassed, without the songs being punctuatedby vigorous, if indiscreet, thumpings ofwindow on sill. Such appreciation provedmost heartening to the music lovers whowere sacrificing their time, energy, andsometimes, voices, to this most soothing ofarts.Occasionally, however, songs were not al­ways those most attuned to the sensitivenature of the female ear, and complaintswere accordingly lodged at the Dean's officethat ". . . a bunch of drunken studentswere of evenings singing songs which werebawdy, lewd, and at best, indecent. Be­sides, the words were mouthed so horriblythat most of them could not be understood."Actions as these were, of course, shockingto the singers, in turn, who felt that goodEnglish choral music would not be completeunless it had some of the virtlrty, the zest,for which French vocalists find their lan­guage so well adapted.Upon subsequent occasions, however, theabove groups then sang hymns, wisely per­haps, certainly not too well. Despite theobvious concession to their nonappreciativelisteners, the singers were not received aswell as before. No more windows wereslammed during the course of a song-theywere usually found closed before the boyseven got there. What future plans formusical appreciation will result, is difficultto determine. Time alone will tell.OperaSome things occur while staging an operawhich never reach the eye nor ear of apatron. During a recent product of "Iphl­genia in Tauris" by students in the Uni­versity Opera Association, the followingincidents were recorded:Earle Wilkie, singing a tenor role, had,the unpleasant duty of killing a king witha spear during' each performance. Inas­much as singing kings are not easily re­placed, and since stage hands would havehad a pretty messy job cleaning up after­wards, actual slaying was not done at each performance, which may surprise the reader.Instead Wilkie's spear was furnished withII harmless tin point, thus lending the sameeffect as a lethal one. Notwithstanding,". ilke ·.s zeal was so great at the initial per­formance that he not only slew the king,as usual, with a well timed blow, but hissuperhuman strength bent the spear pointto the form of a shepherd's crook.Thomas Turner, student director of theOpera Association, was ticket collector atthe performances. Rushed by flows of cus­tomers, he cut his usual thorough ticketinspection to a glance at the large number7 contained on the ticket. "All went well,"said Turner, "till after the show, when theticket box revealed one stub which wasnot from a ticket to the opera, but fromone to a John Winant lecture held Decem­ber 7, two months previously."Precocity's YoungsterStaid, conservative, are musical mentorsof the world. At universities and conserva­tories from Pittsburgh to Perugia elderlygentlemen of international fame drill intostudents of every age the precepts of in­terpretation, harmony, counter-point. JosefHoffman heads Philadelphia's Curtis Insti­tute; Rudolph Ganz heads the Chicago Mu­sical College; Literarian John Erskine headsNew York's Juillard School.But any new musical organization is aptto be looked upon with disdain by otherswhich boastfully point to the roster offamed artists they have turned loose upona beguiled public.

Costumes by Du­pont, sets by Shep Vogelgesang, madecolorful the already brightly flashing or­chestral colors of the Weinberger scorewhich reaches its peak in the ponderouslyascending fugue following the spritelypolka.Critical observers note, however, that apermanent idiosyncracy of music depart­ment productions is the dancing of agroup coached by Marion Van Tuyl; agreethat her choreography is uninspired, stac­cato, poorly synchronized. Also noted isthe general inefectiveness of sets (savethose designed by "Century of Progress"colorist Vogelgesang) and the generallyinadequate group acting of fine-singing butwooden figured chorii.But such finicky ferreting is drowned infloods of praise from those who realizethat because of depression drained financesno where else can they see such revivals ornew works.

While nota coach himself, this teacher had led Eng­lish classes for a number of years, had beena fervent football fan long before Samkicked the bottom out of his first cradle.So long had he followed the fortunes of theschool's team, this rooter had felt himselfas much a part of the team as the coach.His one despair was his inability to helpthe team's fortunes by mere rooting.Accordingly, when the coach gave per­mission for him to talk to his boy's, his team,between halves of a very important game,this teacher was seized with grim deter­mination to do his best to whip the playersinto a fighting mood. It was the opportunitysought for years. He was going to havesomething to do with his team's winning, orhis team's losing.Dog-tired after a gruelling first half,which found them holding the short end ofscoring, the local eleven plodded its wayback to the dressing room. There awaitedthe ever-so-slight figure of one of their teachers, grim, cold lines set hard in hisface. Not a word did he say for severalminutes, as trainers threaded their wayamongst recumbent players strewn aboutthe room, laying towels on sweating faces,taping twisted ankles.Then, with ... shout of rage, he began averbal goading that spared none of them.Blasting with all the oratory that his owncareer had developed, he tore into every­thing that they had done that first half. Thetackling had been terrible, hadn't beenvicious enough to bring down a halfbackten pounds lighter than an ounce of feathers.Plunging was lousy, couldn't penetrate aline of wheelchairs from the old people'shome. On and on he raved till the playerswere on their feet in fury at themselves,storming about him as he lashed them againand again.Suddenly, silence. With tears of angerstreaming from his eyes, the speakerpaused. Then with a burst of energy, hefairly screamed: "You know what to do.Now get out there on that field andFIGHT!"With a roar of imprisoned might, theplayers stormed towards the door, when thecoach stepped out, raised his hand, said:"Sit down and relax, fellows.

Still more dejectedly, hewent about the tedious task of changingtires. But the flat was stubborn, refusedto be budged, resisted all efforts to removeit. Finally, with a cry of despair, Crislerthen silenced birds of the meadow with amighty string of oaths. On & on he sworemightily as the tire successfully resistedhis labors.Meanwhile a car had stopped nearby, itsoccupant had emerged. Crisler glimpsedhim between vaporings, then stopped inashen-faced silence.

Negotiations fe-ll through, however,due to different sets of rules at the twoinstitutions.Touchball resembles football, in fact, bothare claimed to have origin in an old Anglo­Saxon custom of kicking a skull around;nowadays the game is not greatly different,except that the skull is no longer detached.Northwestern ruffians, it seems, insisted ona reversion to the older type of game as de­manded hy their rules, which allowed unto­ward nudging, tackling, with other rowdytactics. Chicago therefore declined, pre­ferring a game of wits rather than hits, al­though the school was well represented byher champs, the Psi Upsilon Owls, who onoccasion have been known to handle theirpersons as well as any. Perhaps in demand­ing a battle of wits, however, Chicago wasunfair, for there is no glory in beating anunarmed enemy, but the issue of such agame, played under any conditions, wouldbe interesting to those old-timers remem­hering' epic scrambles indulged in by thetwo schools in the past.--'�'---Sporty ScienceWhen wedded to sport, science can some­times result in strange and unbelievablewonders. Former champion high-jumperand at present instructor in the departmentof Chemistry, Anton Burg is an example.Although not of string-bean, cloud-grazingbuild usually associated with athletes wholeap over the horizontal stick, Berg did hisshare of record-breaking. It is said thathe later attributed his success in " meet topreliminary studies of gravitational laws,angles executed upon take-off, foot-poundsof energy exerted when leaping, etc., andgrudgingly to some extent his own abilityto run up to the standard and chuck him­self over the bar.Science, however, sometimes takes an un­deserved beating for things over which ithas no control. Among recent news is thecase of Henry Kellogg, member of thiswinter's varsity basketball squad. Unsatis­fied with prosaic methods of looping theball through the hoop, Henry used to pullhimself back to midfloor and let fly forhours at a time. He continued this prac­tise despite serious objections by team­mates.Finally, Henry, out of a burst of unsel­fishness, consented not to shoot from themiddle of the court. Instead, he movedstill farther back from the standard, to al­most the opposite end of the floor, unloosedprodigious heaves in his attempts to revolu­tionize modern basketball offense.Far from satisfactory were his attemptsto shoot goals at this great distance, liketrying to throw a ping-pong ball from thereal' of Mandel Hall into the speaking ori­fice of a lecturer on the front rostrum.After", few days of practise, however, hemanaged to hit the backboard with severalof his attempts. Then, after one particularshot had banged from the far-distant stand­ard, he walked aside, sought out Nels Nor­gren, varsity basketball coach."Norg," he began, face puzzled over theproblem with which he was wrestling, "are 37the I'" an,I' ail' currents here ill the fie ld­house?" Nels, who had been watching thelong-distance firing from a secure positionon the sidelines, thought awhile, then seri­ously answered. "Why, Henry, I supposethere are, there very well might be." Then,with", hurst of humor, he suggested: "Oh,yes, yes, �'ou IIwy he right. You see thosehuge ventilators on each side of the field-ADVISER NORGRENAir currents affect basket-shooting,house roof? I suppose they might havesomething to do with it. But why do youask, Henry?"Basketeer Kellogg flushed a hit, said:"Well, I've got a theory. It explains whysome of my shots miss the basket. It's theair currents, now, I know, because I had ahead on that last shot I missed, honest,N org, and I saw it swerve just before itwas going in the basket !"----0--Travelling ExpensesAthletic teams often find it necessary totravel to other schools, since it has beenfound distinctly difficult for opponents oftwo institutions to compete against oneother, each on its home grounds.

Whether surg­ical treatment can remedy the injury, is aquestion to which Rush medical students,and most others on campus, give little seri­ous thought. Natural outcome of these twospinal twists is the political nature of theDramatic Association and the constantmisconception of thc work possible withactors bred by its political organization.Still, disgruntled objectors to the O'Haraheaven sometimes fail to realize that sucha situation has developed because of theomnipresent lack of unification of extra­curricular activities at Chicago's experi­mental culture college, where 6000 studentsare split into two equally uninterested, un­comprehending groups of graduate and un­dergraduate students. Sequestered in labor­atories, or silently working on projects inniches scattered through the Tudor-Gothicgreys tone granaries of knowledge are 4000graduate students eager to pursue the Faus­tian butterfly of learning (see below); uni­fied only by their superior disdain of the2000 undergraduate students who are splitinto a hundred camps.Indicative of the political star-system inthe Association is an advertisement pub­lished in the University's Daily (exceptSaturday, Sunday and Monday) Maroon, ex­horting students to patronize Paust. because"... it is your last chance to see EBERTVAIL MASTERSON KEHOEMANN - SANDMAN". Unthinkable at anyother university priding itself upon firmlygrounded dramatics activities would be suchadvertisement of student activity in anyplay. But of the O'Hara menage it is typi­cal; as typical as "Old Grad" Greenberg'sdramatics alumnre of several years' vintageplug for this same production which said:"Dear me-are Flip & Drip & Barbara &Ollie & Alec, those sophomores, really mak­ing their last appearance? And Sandman,is she going too?" ECHO's cynic answers:"Yes, thank God!"Best viewed in comparison are DramaticAssociation productions. Thus Paths ofGlory, Sydney Howard's gory masterpiece,suffered fallen arches when compared witharch-rival Northwestern University's pro­duction of the same play one month later.Director O'Hara's penchant for his small(24x18 ft.) stage atop Reynolds Club madethe thunderous activities of 1914's war seemlike a gusty breeze rather than a satanic cyclone. In contrast was the cynical bitter­ness of Northwestern's unit-set with the en­tire play staged before a. huge grey mem­orial cross-a cry of "lest we forget" beinguttered silently throughout the show. Andat the end, a directorial touch of geniusflashed onto the spotlighted horizontals ofthe cross the three-line article of NewYork's Times saying that the widows of thcmen on whose experiences the play-novelhad been based, had been paid some sevencents as their indemnity for three shatteredlives.But prime prancer of D. A. actors is aRhodes' scholar who bears an uncanny re­semblance in face and mannerism to MGM'sflip actor Robert Montgomery. Appropri­ately nicknamed "Flip" is Robert Ebertwho exhibited acting of a really capablecalibre during the 1935-36 season. As driv­ing General Assolant in the Howard play,as Mephisto in Faust, he was superb, butbeyond all this was his work in Gogol'sfarce, The Inspector General, in which hisMontgomery-manner saved, single handed,an untutored rout to bumbling buffoonery.Gossip, quasi-socialite, student (accordingto Frank Knox' Daily News, which picturedher surrounded with tomes in her Interna­tional House study (see p. 16), glad-handel',general girl-around-campus is Adele Sand­man, actress, whose tactical blunder of theyear came, not in dramatics, but in jour­nalism when she essayed to pick the twentylights of campus society for the Daily Ma­roo'''' (see p. 7). At least a quarter ofthem were D. A. members.Director O'Hara's favortism for his smalltheatre is said to spring from two reasons:(1) finance, (2) personal preference. Buteasily realized in this small space by the tendozen members of a packed house is thelimited ability of his charges, the necessityof greater space to minimize startling effectsof messy make-up on youthful physiogno­mies. And financially, the critics skepticallypoint out, the D. A. would fare much betterwas the calibre of their productions such asto attract, to interest in each play a grouplarge enough to fill huge Mandel Hall.---4----­U gl y DucklingSister of D.

A., he wasforced to pass up Blackfriars, a group ofcampus slapstick Thespians, which, incor­porated, and with its own financial sinkingfund, refused to mix its money in the com­mon D. A, pool. But a dozen years of rumorhas built up the theory that mortal enmitybetween the two (at least on D. A.'s side)is because guests direct Blackfriars produc­tions; not Frank Hurburt O'Hara.

A biography as un­sentimental, as impersonal, as straightfor­ward as Dr. Linn's novel, This Was Life(see above) is sentimental, personal, mean­dering.Nephew Linn has told Jane Addams' lifeas simple as she lived it, and as her sim­plicity and sincerity were her most ennob­ling characteristics, so do these qualitieslift Dr. Linn's biography to the heights ofbiographical writing. Carefully does heavoid conclusions-leaving that to the re­flected opinions of others-but in closingpermits himself one truism: "Representa­tive? If Jane Addams were truly represen­tative, we should now be living in themillenium."NED WAYBURN'S '!lTO BE SURE!r ..... -----�• Ned Wayburn's charming dancing teachersare careful in choosing a preparation to over­come under-arm moisture.
