Gorgas.Chicago 'track fans will be giventhe only oportunity of the indoor sea­son to see the team in action' in Bart­lett gymnasium when Ohio Stateclashes with the Maroons Friday.Director Stag�'� charges have twodecisive victories in dual meets totheir credit, and the Buckeye eventwill he the last Conference competi­tion before the Indoor Conferencemeet at Evanston, March 20.The Varsity dcefated Purdue atLafayette, 600 to 250, allowing theBoilermakers hut one first place.Northwestern was likewise decisivelybeaten, 5-t-23, the Purple winningtwo premier posiuons. Unfortunate­ly Director Stagg was unable to ar­range dual indoor meets with Illinoisand Wisconsin, and the comparativemcrit s of these strong squads can­not be ascertained until the IndoorConference meet. At the presenttime Illinois and Chicago look likethe leading contenders for the title,with Illinois the favorite. \Viscon­sin has heen handicapped by the lossof stars, and is depending mainly onthe work of new men.Since Ohio State was admitted intothe Conference, the Buckeyes havemet the "Big Nine" track teams butrarely. During the indoor seasonlast year Illinois took every firstplace in a dual meet with Ohio andswamped the new members of theConference completely. The Buck­eyes have held but one dual meet thisyear, and in that defeated Ohio Wes­leyan, 700* to 33 Y.i , allowing the�{ethodists but one first place.Maroons Are Favorites.The records set by Coach Castle­man's squad were remarkably good.considering the fact that they weremade on an indoor track, and Direc­tor Stagg is looking for a .hard fight(Continued on page 2)Chicago Has Larger and BetterBalanced Team and Is Logi­cal Favorite.HARD FIGHTS ARE EXPECTEDOhio State Men Have Made GoodRecords-Middle DistanceRunners Are Fast.�.iUNIVERSITY FLORISTWILL SEND SHAMROCKTO WOODROW WILSONO'Carroll Predicts Kaiser Will Ob­tainOwn Plant From GreatBrit­ain.

ROBERTSONS RETURN TOCAMPUS FROM CALIFORNIAWill Not Be in Residence UntilApril I-Associate Professor Rob­ertson Is Impressed By JapaneseExhibit.Associate Prof. and �lrs. DavidAllan Robertson returned yesterdayfrom a two months' visit to Califor­nia, where they visited educationalinstitutions, including Leland Stan­ford and the University of California,and the San Francisco exposition.They will not be in residence at theUniversity until April 1. �lr. Robert­son was especially impressed hy thepart played by the japanese in thefair. He questioned, however,whether the excellence of the japan­ese exhibits would augment or pacifythe attitude of the Californians to­wares the Oriental immigrants."The Japanese exhibits were excep­tionally extensive," said Mr. Robert­son. "They were, in every case, wellprepared and inclusive. The Japan­ese art department was in particularwonderful. This work was done bytwelve-or fourteen-year-old children.American flags were repeatedly dis­played by the Japanese in their pro­cession and celebrations."The German and French exhibits,according to �f r. Robertson, are con­spicuous by their absence. N' eithercountry has, as yet, been able totransport the material for their exhi­bitions. Italy witt he represented assoon as the official vessel carryingthc exhibit arrives."The exterior of the buildings atthe fair is exceedingly impressive,"said Mr. Robertson. "The structureis chiefly concrete, and is similar totravertine. The exposition colors areeverywhere' to' De 'seen. - "Spanishplatcrsque adds to the beauty of thebuildings."STUDENTS WIN FROMFACULTY AT CHESSMembers of the Varsity chess teamhumbled the faculty players by a 60to 30 score last night in the Rey­nolds club.

Interestwas aroused to such a pitch that tick­ets could not be distributqd. Thepresence of leading cittzens ratherthan the masses featured the meet­in��.

However, it is the younger ele­ment of students that is leadingChritsianity there.

Thewrestlers have met several outsideteams, but the gymnasas have hadonly what practice that they have ob­tained in exhibition events.1'his year is the first that the Pur­ple has been represented in the Con­ference in either of these two sports,and Loth Coach Hoffer and CoachNetherton are in the dark in regardI to the strength of the competitionthat they will meet. The North­western men will not suffer fromwant of experience, however, forthey have been paying some attentionto these sports for the past few years.Men Lack Experience.The Chicago gymnastic artistshave displayed unusual skill, accord­ing- to Coach Hoffer, in their exhibi­tion meets, and the only thing notin their favor is the fact that theyhave had no actual competitive cxpc­ri ence. This will he the first year forevery man on the team, with the ex­ception of Captain Hollingsworth,and the Purple meet will be the firstConference event that ;he has everentered.The gymnasts had to start withdudimentary tactics this year, due tothe loss of such stars as Weakly,Roberts, and Parkinson, of last year'steam. Not discouraged by their inex­perience. however, the candidateshave been working hard and haveshown much improvement, accordingto .the coach. It is Coach Hoffer'sprediction that they will compose asgood a squad as the University hasever had by the time of the Confer­ence meet in April, if the present rateof improvement is kept up.Have Practice Contests.The wrestling team has just finish­ed a period of strenuous practice con­tests. Coach Netherton has taughtthe men a grea variety of holds andis confident that they will be able toput up a good fight against their op­ponents tomorrow.

A system of majorand minor sequences has taken theplace of the formerly "required"courses. I t is. hoped by this arrange­ment that the student will knowsomething definitely and thoroughlyabout at least two subjects.The modest hope is a commend­able one, but the University has ahope and expectation, doubtless,which is more commendable, hut ofthe fulfillment of which it is less easyto be sure. It is expected that everystudent before receiving his bache­lor's degree, will have learned to dogood, constructive thinking, will beable to study a mass of material andreach his own conclusions after thisstudy.In the average course the studentwrites a term paper, which requiressome study, some organizing ability,and some little thought. But we haveno chance to study his reaction to­ward material which severs somefield larger than that· treated in aquarter's work. We know that hecan study the drama from 1860 to1881 and come to some conclusions;that he can take the period from 1881to 1900; that from 1900 to the pres­ent day, and make generalizationsabout them. But What can he sayabout the drama from 1860 to thepresent day?Despite the sequence idea there is atendency for the student to specializein short periods and to gain no gen­eral ideas, to limit himself to fulfill­ing the requirements of each- quarterwithout getting anywhere in the sub­ject of his sequence as a whole. Theonly possible way to remedy thisfailure in our curriculum, it appears,is either to have the student bodywrite a thesis before receiving hisbachelor's degree, or to have him takea general examination at the end ofhis colltge career, as is dODe in 1eY­eral of the German universities.It is doubtful if the examinationwould accomplish the results wanted,as it would have to be based on theprinciple of the student's knowledgeof isolated facts more than on theprinciple of 'his abitity to reachbroad conclusions after a certainamount of study. Objection has beenmade to the thesis idea on the�.dound<; that no thesis should bewritten which docs not add to thesum of existing knowledge, but thismuch is not required of our candi­dates for the master's degree andthere seems no reason why it shouldbe used as an argument against un­dergraduates performing this work •Suppose a student's major se- quence to have been in English. Lethim be required before the end of hislast 'term to turn in a ten thousandword paper on the development ofcertain tendencies in English prose.This would necesitate class work ofseveral quarters as well as serve asa means of requiring the student todo some original research work.The mere fact that this work is re­quired of undergraduates at a numberof our prominent universities, such as\Visconsin, for example, is an argu­ment in its favor. The plan could dono harm if tried for a year or two andthe experiment certainly should be avaluable one.\Vith the gymnasium constructedas it is now, it does not seem thatthere is any way to expedite thehandling of crowds after a basketbal1. game. But we certainly would hateto be caught there in a fire.And when it comes to the questionof the use of scenery which is notabsolutely fire-proofed on the stageof one of the campus buildings, weare inclined to point to the gymna­sium as a shining example of whatmight happen in case of fire. Ofcourse, the original clement of thedanger caused by the presence of. thescenery is removed.Nor is this intended to scare peopleaway from the game Saturday night-were that possible.I t is a little difficult for students atChicago to conceive of a general as­sembly being called at any collegefor the purpose of discussing the se­rious question of Freshman-Sopho­more antipathies. Yet this was doneat the University of Texas last week.Absence of so-called "college spirit"seems a desirable thing at times. Atall times, for that matter.And, now, Kansas is consideringventuring upon the point system. Itwill be interesting to ' .... atch the com­ments there two years from now, ifthe system is adopted.One of the pleasantest sensations.around rhe campus is getting used toopening a door outwards, which forthree and a half years you have al­ways opened inwards.Just when we get all primed forsomething rash, and have deliberatelydecided, in the face of all arguments,that' we will cut class and spend anhour on the "C" bench-why, itturns cold again.Our famous "only". department:only 217 hours and 20 minutes beforethat term paper is due.REGISTRATION SCHEDULE.Registration for the Spring quarterwill be held this week according tothe following schedule:Graduate and Medical schools, 10-12, offices of the deans.Divinity school, today and Friday,lO:15-10:45; today, tomorrow andFriday, 11 :45-12:45, offices of thedean.Law school, daily, 10:15-11 :15, 2-3,o .. ice of the dean.Senior college students with 18-32majirs, today; Junior college stu­dents with nine or more majors, to­morrow and Friday, as follows:.
