The sea­son just closed, consisting of sixThomas Orchestra concerts, a songrecital hy Madame Schumann-Heink,:1011 a piano recital hy Fannie Bloom­field-Zeisler, was most successful fromevery point of view..hidl· from the artistic standpoint,the seat sale and the interest dis­played has been remarkable. Of] HIseats in the hall 10i3 were sold forthe season as compared with 991 inIlI09·1II; 3iG of these seats were pur­chased by students against 354 theyear previous.To Have Eight. Concerts?'"The result of the season," the re­port concludes, "is an additional evi­dence that a series of eight or morehigh grade concerts can be success­fully maintained in the Universitycommunity each, year, and with thef:radually increasing patronage whichmay confidently be expected from thestudents, the association should fromyear to year occupy a more import­ant part in the University life.", The nominating committee recom­mended the election of the old offi­cers on account of their good record.Thereupon Mr. Mead was re-electedpresident. Mrs. Larned vice-president.and Mr. Payne secretary-treasurer.To Organize Choral Society.The suggestion was then made asto the advisability of organizing aUniversity choral society whichwould give at least one concert ofchoral singing a year. The pres i­dent was directed to appoint a com­mittee of three to consider the prac­tihility of such a move and to sub­mit a report to the board of direc­tors.After the discussion of the natureof the concerts for next season, itwas recommended that the associa­lion should hold a series of nine orIf n concerts of which two are to bespecial artistic recitals and six orseven by the Thomas Orchestra.SPRING TRYOUTS FOR THEDRAMATIC CLUB TODAYSuccessful Aspirant.CJ Will Repeat Se­lections Before Dramatic ClubTomorrow.The Dramatic club will hold its<,Jlrinl{ tryouts in Kent theater thisafternoon at -1 o'clock.

There may bea third set of trials before the make­UJl of the quartet is definitely deter­mined.?\ 0 sure line has been obtained asto the ability of the nine men whotire trying for the team. Davenportis of course a certainty. and it isgenerally felt that Menaul is also as­sured of a place on the team. Therace is very close for the other twopositions, and any two of the othercandidates may pull a place.Nine Men Trying.A large number have announcedtheir intention of trying, The listincludes: Davenport, Earle, Gifford,G. Kuh, Menaul. Skinner, Straube,Tartarsky, and Timblin. Fiveof these have already been on teamsthat have made the trip to Philadel­phia. and two of them, Davenport,and Timblin. were on the last cham­pionship team, which competed in thespring of 1909. Gifford and GeorgeK uh have run on teams that com­peted in Conference meets.On paper, the team which will he,picked this year will be the strongestthat ever represented Chicago at thedistance. Davenport is the bestquarter-miter the Maroons have everhad and can be counted on to pickup a good deal on the last lap if itis necessary for him to do so. Anurnben of the other men are old atthe game and able to avoid any diffi­culty arising from track tactics onthe part of 'the opposing teams.Rivals Uncertain.Almost nothing has been heardabout the teams against which Chi­cago wilt go at Philadelphia, The Opeponents at 'Des Moines next week'will be the Missouri Valley colJegesand probably Illinois. Two teams willgo to these games and the race willbe made use of as a trial for theteam which' will go to Philadelphia.'Efforts have been made to arrangefor a match race between Davenportand Berrnond, the University of Mis­souri star, but in view of the gamesa Philadelphia the next week, Mr_Stagg is unwilling to send Davenportthrough two quarters at Des Moines.This would he necessary if he racedItermond, as he would be used onthe relay teams the same afternoon.Illinois wilt probably be Chicago'schief opponent at Des Moines.

It waspossible to detect the ion in the veryact of separation from ,the molecule.The drop of oil used to catch thenewly formed ion could be seenjumping violently about.The following statement of thework carried on by Professor Milli­kan with the assistance of Mr. Flet­clier was given out yesterday:Results Explained."I nth€: report which Professor Mil­likan 'made last spring of the workwhich he and Mr. Fletcher had he en<ioing on the isolation oi atmosphericions, it was shown that all electri·cal charges are built up of elementaryatoms of electricity and the value ofthis ultimate electrical atom was ac­curately determined."The method consisted in catchingatrnosphereic ions upon minute oildrops floating in the air and measur­ing the electrical charge which thedrops' thus acquired, This year thefollqwing extensions of this workhave been made:"(1) The act of ionization itselfis now being studied, each of the twoelectrical fragments into which a neu­tral molecule breaks up being caughtupon oil drops at the instant of for­mation.

Mr.Smythe has made a number of sue­essful fiights in the glider, and he isgoing to teach the members of theaero club how to control the ma­chine. I t was decided that the clubwould send to the meet the man whomakes the longest average flights in:the trials.'Mr. Smythe will accompany theclub's representatives to the Har­vard rn�t, and aid him in every waypossible. Owing to the superior con­struction of the club's glider the rnern­bers hope to carry off the cup offeredto the club making the longest flight.The aero club is going to draw up anew constitution and make the cluba stronger organization as soon asa number of new members come intothe club.

The usual argu-ments of culture ver­sus utility are being bandied backand forth and the whole matter bidsfare to be thoroughly threshed outbefore a final settlement is reached.The problem of how extensive theforeign language requirements shouldbe: and how they should be taughthas long been a bone of contention.There. seems to be a consensus ofopinion that some foreign languagesshould be given every student, for itscultural value, if for no utilitarianreason. There has, however, beensome dispute as to how these lan­guages should be taught, and muchdissatisfaction over the present meth­od. Under our system a student isgiven approximately a year of gram­matical and elementary work and isthen. launched into French, Germanor Spanish classics. The conversa­tional part of the languages isslighted to such an extent that a stu­?c.-nt after four years of diligent studyIS unable to conduct an intelligentconversation in the particular lan­guage he has been studying.A student who devotes four. or ev­en two, years to a language expectsto get some practical value out ofhis work and it is unjust to compelhim to flounder in the depths of alanguage that he has studied foryears, with only a few catch phrasesat his command. More stress shouldhe laid on conversation work in allthe foreign tongues. Not only willthe benefit to the student be greater,but a more vital interest will be giv­en the student in the work he is pur­suing.COMMUNICATION.To the Editors of the "Maroon,"My attention has been attracted toarticles in your paper complimentaryto myself and referring to the gen­eral status of Professor Merriam,touching his political career. yermitlIle to say, that there need be no fear 2 STUDENTS CONFERENCE ON·RELIGION BEGINS SUNDAYEducation's Contribution to Chris­tianity Will Be by Professors inEvery Department.The annual conference of the Chris­tian Union of the University will be'gin its sessions Sunday afternoon at4 o'clock in Mandel hall.

'Up to last night Mr. Stagg was un­able to state whether or not thepractice game scheduled for this af­ternoon would be plaved, Some timeago the coach of the Lake Forestteam wrote asking if a postponementwas possible. Mr. Stagg wrote in re­ply that it was if one of two datescould be 'chosen. No reply has beenreceived to this letter, and, as a re­-ult, the game mayor may not beplayed.! f the game is not played this af­ternoon, the team will go into itsfirst Conference contest with rio fur­ther practice work. The game willbe with Northwestern on Saturdayafternoon. Little is known about thePurple team, although they have hadan excellent place in which to prac­tice during the cold months andshould be in better shape in this mat­ter than the Chicago players. Theyhave not been able to defeat Chicagofor a number of years, but at onetime they were formidable rivals ofthe Maroons.The game with Northwestern willbe followed by contests with Iowa,Wisconsin, and Indiana. so that theteam will have had four Conferencegames before it goes into its firstgame with Illinois �n May3. Thiswill be played at Champaign and willgive a good line on the result of theseries. Two years ago, Chicago de­feated the Orange and Blue in thefirst game on their own field and tiedthc series.NEW LEAGUE OFFICERSARE GIVEN PLACESThe League room �'!2.S crowdedyesterday, when old and new mem­hers turned out for the open installa­tion of the Y. \V.
