SL.PSSON.This is the third installment of anarticle written in the Independentmagazine by Dr. E E. Slosson on theUniversity of Chicago. The next in­stallment will appear in tomorrow'sissue of The Daily Maroon.I 'i ' Xo university had eyer before re­ceived such generous gifts from manydifferent individuals in so short atime. but no amount of money wouldhave been sufficient to keep up withthe projects generated in that activebrain. Dr. Harper's gigantic and far­reaching plans caught the fancy ofbusiness men of kindred imgination,but his chronic deficit of one or twohundred thousand dollars a year re­pelled them. His successor has donein three years what he could neverhave done. President Judson. hy care­ful management and some curtail­ment, has succeeded in making bothends meet and has placed the insti­tution on a sound financial basis. Thetotal productive endowment of theUniversity is now $14.870.903.01 to acent. and it has besides $8.917.708.10invested in�1)unditl�fs and -grotmtis 'di�­voted entirely to University use. and$1.916.314.49 in equipment. scientificapparatus, etc.T� past year has seen the definiteabandonment of the system of affili­ated colleges established by PresidentHarper. It was his theory that un­dergraduate work. particular of thetwo lower years. should mostly berelegated to smaller institutions invarious parts of the country under thesupervision of the University. Thestudents could migrate freely amongthem. passing north in the summerand south in the winter. like the wildfowl. and their instructors would en­joy so far as possible the laboratoryand library facilities of the Univer­sity. A considerable number of reput­able colleges entered into the rela­tionship and more seemed likely tofollow their example. but the plan didnot work, I do not understand exact­ly why. Of .course the alumni of thesmall colleges opposed what seemedto them a loss of independence and arecognition of inferiority. but thenalumni. as a rule. oppose everychange. good or bad. They caned it"applying trust methods to education."Perhaps it was. but I believe thatsome such arrangement between thesmall colleges and the great univcr­<it ics will inevitably come about be­fore many years. and when it docsthe colleges may find that they cannotget as favorable terms as those of­ferC'd them by President Harper.I may as well confess. since the ob­-crvant reader has already detectedit. that T am one of the thou�ands onwhom tho"e fir�t six bullctins outlin­ing the policy of the new universitymacleJan indelible impr('s�ion.

Varsity Basketball Squad DefeatsLewis Institute in Stiff PracticeGame in Bartlett, 32-26-PlayNorthwestern Here Saturday Night.The basketball season opened inearnest yesterday when the Varsitysquad defeated the fast Lewis insti­tute team in a practice game by thescore of 32-26. The game was closelycontested throughout, and showedthat the Varsity needs much practiceif they hope to win the Conferencechampionship this year.Lewis played good combinationsthroughout and showed the effects ofpractice. At the very start of thegame Captain Hoffman, after a rush,made the first basket for Chicago. Inthe middle of the first half the Ma­roons had a comfortable lead, whichwas gradually overcome by good teamwork on the part of the visiting for­wards and the perfect basket throw­ing of Pardee, Lewis' right for­ward. The score was 13-13 at the endof the half. The absence of Pagefrom Chicago's lineup made a greatdifference in .the score.Chicago's Combination Poor.:\Iost of Chicago's plays werestopped by the failure of Hubble andSauer, who played center. to out jumpDempsey, and but for the poor bas­ket throwing of the institute for­wards, the score would have beengreath· changed. The Varsity playeda better game in the second half andby excellent work of Clark and Sau­er were able to win the game. Clark'sfree-throwing was much poorer thanusual. missing three out of seven.Sixteen fouls wer,? registered UP_Iagainst the Varsity, while Lewis ori1)­had seven. The lineup of the twoteams was as follows:Chicago.Edwards. Kelley _ R. F.Clark, Goldstein .. _ L. F.Hubble, Sauer C.Boyle, Edwards, Fulkerson R. G.Hoffman L. C.Lewis.Pardee R. F.Wathier ..

Doubtless therehave been many undesirable occur­rences in the conduct of past elec­tion, but the present agitators see�to loose sight of the fact that there ISa difference be ween "diry polities"and "practical politics."It seems to us that as long as theselection of student elective offices isaccompanied hy political mejhodsthat arc honest and legitimate thereshould he no complaint.
