GOGORZA'S TONE COLORGIVES ELEGANT TOUCHBaritooe Presents Selections in Finished . Manner-Mezzo- Voce Sin,in, Shows Natural Beauty of Voice-French Melodies Well Rendered.By Robert W. Stevens.Supported by an excellent accompanist, in Miss Helen M. Winslow,also with pianoforte of beautifullyblending lone, Rmilio de Gogorzagave the recital expected of him yesterday afternoon in Mandel hall. Hecomplained of the pitch of the pianobeing too high, but showed no effectof any such situation, even duringthe numbers of greatest range. Suchtone production and mastery throughan entire recital has never been heardin Mandel hall.Elegance and finish are the firstcharacteristics of his work. The voiceis an organ of greatest natural beautyin his case, rather than an instrumentof overwhelming power. It is sufficient, however. for demands of dramatic extremes, such as the operaticselection from the Barber of Seville,presented as the final encore, or thesimple old English, "Drink to MeOnly With Thine Eyes," added in the. middle of the program.No Delay of Finer Effects.The singer did not hesitate fromreal effect at the very beginning ofth'e program, giving the Gluck Ariagenuine feeling, following the Mozartserenade. The French songs, whichprevailed, were the finest numbersand, best rendered of al1. Severalothers, however,-the eighteenth century minuet, the toy song by Carpenter, and Huhn's "Invictus," with thefinal encore, were the most enthusiastically received.A most interesting feature disclosedby the direct, human touch of thissoloist, familiar to the public throughthe graphophone, is the effect of his"·mezzo-voce, which is truly incomparable, and is largely lost on ,'those instruments of reproduction. This isthe art that has made Emilio de Gogorza one of the best admired interpreters of all styles among professional musicians.Must Play Postponed Games.Coach Page has announced that allpostponed games in the interclassbasketball series must be played offbefore the end of this week.

VON SCHROETI'ER WRITESOF GERMAN SUCCESSESFormer Instructor at University SaysRussians Are Being Repulsed-IsServing Under Von HindenburgEngaged in Scouting' Expedition.That Germany's campaign againstRussia is proving successful and thatGermany will eventually win in theEuropean struggle, was the statemetn of Eric von Schroetter, in aletter just received by Associate Prof.Philip Schuyler �"..1:Cn. The letterwas sent from the German trenchesin Russian Poland. Von Schroetterwas a Fellow in the department ofGerman in the University last year.He left in June for Munich, where hehoped to get material for his doctor'sdisscrtation. When the war brokeout, he joined the Austrian troops as avolunteer, but was quickly promotedto a corporalship,Von Schroetter is at present withhis regiment, the Deutschmeisterregiment, number 4, company 8, in Russian Poland, under General von Hinden burg. He has been there for thelast three months. According to theletter, he has been in extreme dangerseveral times. Shrapnels have explodcd all about ,him, but as yet hehas been uninjured.Has Been in Fray.Recently, 'while on patrol duty, vonSchroetter, at the head of a party offive, was ordered to scout and learnthe size and extent of the Russian advances. "With bayonets ready," theletter says, "the patrol went forward.\Ve had advanced a hundred stepsand had come to a brook, 'when suddenly two hundred Russians sprangup and began to fire at us. I gavethe command to retreat, and we ranacross a field of eight hundred meters,without cover. I fell down and, as Ifell, my bayonet was shot away by aRussian gun. I jumpd up and reached cover. Subsequently the Russianswere put to flight and the Germantroops advanced for several days afterthat."Von Schroetter expresses .the be:lief that the war will end if an embargo is placed on the exportation ofraw materials to England. He offersthe hope that the United States willbe spared the terrible experiences ofwar.V AlSITY ,OVERCOMES LEAD AND DEfEATSNORTHWESTERN FIVE BY 22 TO 14 SCOREConference Standing.Itlinois ................ 7 0 1,000Chicago ..............

FEB. 17, 1915.ABANDONING FORMALISM._. It seems as though we are suffering a little too much from formalism-if it is granted that we are suffering. At tilllJ!s life is bright andcheerful and everything goes justright, and we are inclined to feel thatall existing institutions are adrnir-,able ; -then, again, something goeswrong, our outlook changes, and wefeel that we are doomed to a hopeless round of grind which has nomeaning.The unfortunate part of the situation is that in him who feels thefirst inclination of joy and freedomfor any length of time, we meet thedisillusionment which brings on thesecond attitude. The man who seesonly pleasure and happiness in a college life usually does not last long.What is needed, doubtless, is a system-we must be formalists-s-whereby much of the drudgery can be madeto fit into -the enjoyment side-notonly the enjoyment such as a realscholar experiences, but even thatwhich' may come to the average easygoing student.Ideally, it would seem that such asystem might come as a result ofabandoning much of the system wehave. The tense regularity of threehours of classes, in sections containing a certain number of students ofa certain hour for physical culture;of just such a tim.e when such bookscan be secured in the library; allthis has the effect of blunting the desire to study for the pleasure of studyand to put the student in the class ofthe day laborer, who has ten hours otgruelling work to do between thehours of 7 and 6.If, instead of four recitations aweek, we had a course which oftendid not meet, except for �nfonnalconferences with the instructor; if wewould have a whole week once in awhile in which a course did not meet,so that we could spend that stretch oftime doing reading which would enable us more clearly to comprehendthe lectures; if we really spent awhole day in a laboratory workingon an experiment, regardless of thefact that we had gym at 3:48; it doesseem that there would be more genuine spontaneity in studying, andthat the results would be much moresatisfactory.Foolish, probably, but the idea appeals stroncly. How many of ushave not expressed the idea that wewould enjoy college life so muchmore if we did not have to botherabout all the outside things, thefrightful regularity of which we are,... __ "'1'"..1 ." t ..... 1'_ ....- _ .. _- _ -_ .. - ..

VARSITY SWIMMERS TOMEET HAMILTON CLUBTEAK TOMORROW NIGHTDowntown Natators Are FavoritesWill Be Greatly Strengthened byAddition of Hanson.Hamilton club is a strong favoriteover Coach White's men in the return swimming meet which will beheld at the club tarik tomorrownight. In the opening meet of theyear the club nata tors were victorious by a 38 to 20 score, and indications point toward an even more onesided total this time.The club men will probably beg rea tty strengthened by the additionof Hanson, a star of national fame,who did not take part in the previousmeet. If Hanson swims, it appears asthough Chicago would have to becontent with last place in the 40, 100and 220 yard swims, for Brown hadno trouble in defeating the Maroonswimmers before. There is very little doubt but that the relay will �Isogo to the home team.Sure of Back Stroke.The one event that Coach White'ssquad feels sure of capturing is theback stroke, for it is very doubtfulif any of thc club men are capable ofbeating out Pavlicek in this event.Gendreau and Dart will put up agood fight for the second position.The club swimmers ought to takethe 220-yard breast stroke, but Murdoch or Shirley stand a good chanceof coming in second. In the plungePrinccll and Cox are coming backfor revenge over Redmon for the defeat that he handed them last ·time,and Redmon is just as determinedto repeat his feat. The chances .inthis event arc about even, andeither of the three men is capableof taking first place.To Play BasketballA basketball game will be playedin the water after the meet is completed and Coach \Vhite's players rulefavorites over their opponents in thiscontest. In the game played lastmonth in Bartlett tank the Chicagoplayers had no trouhle taking theclub men into camp with a 6 to 0score, and there is no reason to doubtthat they are capable of doing thisagain.MATHEWS· SPEECH ISAPPLAUDED BY BRITONSLecture in Tokyo Evokes Much Foreign Comment-llany NotablesListen to Address.Dean Shailer Mathews' speech before the Concordia association of J apan last Wednesday evoked much.foreign comment.

INFORIIATION DESK ISINSTALLED IN HARPERTO ASSIST STUDENTSOfficials Say Little Use Is Made ofInnovaucm-Plan to EzhibitNew Boob.A new feature recently installed inthe library service at Harper is an information desk. This office. createdby the director of the libraries for thepurpose of assisting students whohave trouble in securing books, hasbeen little used by the student body,according to library officials."We desire the students to makemore use of this innovation," said Mr.E. N. Manchester, head of the Readers' department. "Besides givingall sorts of information which thedesk attendants have hardly timeto give, it is the special duty of theassistant at this desk to help readersuse the catalogue. She assists in making out can slips and can often find, inanother part of the catalogue, a substitute for a book reported to be inuse. She can assist in locating magazine articles, by using the indices toperiodical literature."The attendant is also detailed toexplain the mysteries of the threealphabet system under countries andcities in the catalogue to puzzled students," said Mr. Manchester. "Shecan also give information concerningthe arrangement of the classed catalogue, and help students through' themaze of government publications,showing under what headings reportsare entered and perhaps finding second copies issued in a different way.She will give information concerningthe location of rooms in Harper andthe various book collections. The attendant may be found 'daily from 9 to12 and from 1 to 5 at the small deskin W 31.Saves Time and Confusion."The students could make profitableuse of this new feature," said JamesC. Hanson, associate director of thelibraries. "It was originated to affect a saving of time and a lesseningof confusion in the delivery room. Aswe are now in the process of reorganizing and reclassifying the library,students find it hard to use the catalogue swiftly and effectively."We have another plan in mind forexhibiting books of common interestin the reading room. We intend .tohave a shelf for the new books thatare interesting to the general public.Such books as those on the Europeanwar will be placed on this shelf. Wewill begin on this feature this week,and eventually we will have this department out in the delivery room,for the greater convenience of thestudents."POAGUE DESCRIBESCHARACTERS FORBLACKFRIARS PLAY(Continued from page I)MAJOR PARTS FOR ACT TWO.EUSTACE-Prior of the Monastery.
