Production.GIVE PROLOGUE SPLENDIDLY"Corrective Gym" Chorus Stages PartWell-Burlesque of "Endymion"Proves Highly Enjoyable.By Hermann B. Deutsch."Under the Greenwood Tree" is he­yond the shadow of any doubt themost frantically incoherent hctcro­�encity of farce-comedy fragmentsthat ever startled a Mandel hall audi­ence and puzzled it out of its severalsenses. As nearly as I could figureit 'out, the "plot" consists of an old­fashioned, single-shot Remington 22-calibre short and long rifle, compli­cated by the appearance, at irregularand possibly uncertain intervals, of adonkey. Or else the tent has madeoff with the �reenwood tree, therebyso Irightcninz the gypsies that the po­liceman falls asleep, thus causing theaunt at once to recognize the inher­ent superiority of man, so that she�ives her consent to the union of thejuvenile and the ingenue.c-sor some­thing.However, facts are facts, and candorcompels me to admit that in spite ofmy extremely hazy recollection ofwhat was done, whatever it was, itwas extremely well done, in mostcases. Whether the words "Underthe Greenwood Tree" refer to thefact that the first act took place inGreenwood Hall, or to the authoress'name, or to the marvellous botanical"prop" in Act II, which the Hullcourt authorities unquestionablywould characterize as "sp. nov." shallever be shrouded by the deepest mys­tery. But every once in a while twoor three people would, have thestage to themselves, for a moment,and would indulge in what is knownin the profession as "sidewalk patter."This would not only be clever, butprovocative of sufficient laughterfrom the members of the audience totestify to the fact that it was thor­oughly appreciated. And every oncein so often, a well-costumed chorusappeared on the scene. True, it willnever be known whether they arrivedby accident or design, but findingthemselves th'ere, they performed ina manner which is deserving of praise-high praise. I n short, they gotacross-s-and in the last analysis, thatis the only acid. test to which anystage production should be submit­ted.Esockem Is in the Limeli,ht.N ext to the rifle, the tent, and thedonkey, or pterodactyl, or mockturtle, or whatever it was, the "star"was undoubtedly Esockem, the maidHer lines were delivered with the�eatest freedom and clearness, andpossibly the least over-acting.

TheOrange and Blue fans regard the titleas safely clinched, but Coach Page andhis squad are working on the theorythat the race is never over until thelast chance is gone.Both Chicago and l11inois have twomore games to play, and the Ma­roon's best possible chance is for atie for the leadership, if the Illini losetwo straight to Chicago and Minne­sota, while Chicago wins from theIllini and the Badgers. If the Var­sity is able to _trim Coach Jones' fivedecisively tonight, there is a chancethat l\{onday the Gophers will be ableto take the final contest from theslipping Hlini at Champaign.

LAVES CLAIMS �VIDENCEIS ONLY CIRCUMSTANTIALSays Van der Essen Must PresentAccredited Statements of an Impar­tial and Neutral Court to Con­vince Him.Accredited statements of an impar­tial and neutral court, supported bydocunrentary evidence, is the onlyevidence that .can be accepted in suchmatters as were presented in "TheStatement About the Destruction ofLouvain and Neighborhood" by Prof.Van dcr Essen, according to a state­ment made to a reporter for TheDaily Maroon by Associate Prof.Laves yesterday. The charges ofatrocities made against the Ger­mans by Mr. Van dcr Essen were re­plied to in an open letter by Mr.Laves a few days ago. The DailyMaroon printed yesterday an inter­view from Mr. Van der Essen inwhich he supported the contentionsmade in his pamphlet."It is unfortunate that a historianshould go on record in print and ex­pose himself to such easy criticism,"said Mr. Laves yesterday. "The onlyevidence in such a matter we can ac­cept is the accredited statement of animpartial and neutral court. I amnot saying that the statements ofProf. Van der Essen are untrue, Iam merely asking that they be prov­en in the only way in which they canbe proven-namely. through docu­mentary evidence. I t is easy to dis­pose of one's opponent's statementI by saying that it is a forgery, andclaiming that it is a falsification; hutthat is not proof, .Is Sweeping Statement.·"He (Mr. Van der Essen) hasstated in his reply that thestatement of Dr. Conraets' is a Ger­man forgery. That is a sufficientlysweeping statement, I think, when itis not backed uP, by any evidence.How far could this statement be car­ried in a court of law? It 1S circum­stantial evidence."There are only three points to beconsidered here at all. They are,first: According to the statement ofthe American embassy, the Britishcommission has decided that noatrocities have been co:�mitted.

Two Bartlett records werebroken through the sensational workof Dismond, Coach Stagg's star mid­dle distance man.Dismond started the record break­ing by taking the quarter-mile in0:5� .1-5, 1-5 of a second faster thanIra Davenport's mark, which hasstood for some years.

Dismondran t:h� final three laps and camewithin a few yards of lapping the Ohio State runner. The time was3:18 2-5.The Buckeyes were able to .takebut one first place, and had Campbellbeen able to run, Chicago wouldhave made a clean sweep. Director'Stagg saved Stout for the half andPowers was the only Maroon entryin the mile. Powers was handicappedby having to run alone, but ran astrong race and took second placeeasily.

The ticket sale for the 1913Chicago-Wisconsin football game isone of the classic remembrances oflater years, and Saturday night's han­tiling of a delicate situation is evenmore so a colossal failure, to be attrib­uted to the Athlebic department.The class of 1914 was holding areunion Saturday night, after whichit was planned to attend the basket-1>.'111 game in a body; twenty of thesealumni, who held tickets for the game,could not get in; could not even getpast the shoving mob that had col­lected in Bartlett. Yet, some personswho came at the last minute, securedadmission; some, who had not evenbought tickets, were alIowed to payfifty cents at the door and enter,Many of the reserved seats were dis­covered occupied when the holders ofthe right tickets arrived.The crowd which pushed and sway­ed in the hall in its effort to secureadmission was not handled. in a wayto avoid accidc!nt and confusion. Hada panic started Saturday night, hadthe alarm of fire been given, there isno telling how many persons wouldhave been trampled to death in thathallway alone. Several good police­men, �nstmcted to handle the crowdin the proper manner, would have ob­viated this difficulty, but they werenot there.As yet, no exact statistics are avail­able and it is difficult to tell whetherthe authorities oversold the house.But !this much is evident: either froma wild desire to make money or frOIDa desire to treat the public well­though why University athleti�should cater to th� public is beyondexplanation-the department makesno . eeasonable provision to see thatalumni of the institution and, in somecases, students in residence, securegood seats before the public, whohave no vital interest in the Univet­sity, are served; and then, it makesno adequate provision to handle alarge crowd which will collect in thedfort to purchase tickets.A LONG SOUGHT CHANGE.The officers of the Blackfriars havedone what, for years, the campus as awhole has demanded that they do ;made a change in the method of elect­ing new members. The matter restswith the order itself, and it is incoll­ceivable that that body, knowing thewisltes of the University communityand realizing how fair are the changessuggested, would think of turningdown the proposition. I f it does, thesubject will come up for discussionover and over again and, eventually,the change will eeme as a natun.1 re- suit of so strons a demand. The or­der will be spared the possibUity ofhaving the change forced down itsthroat if it follows the commeau.w.lead set by the officers.COMMUNICATION.The Friendship Dinner.To the Editor:Somewhere in my frantic efforts ina CO� on Education I read this sen­tence: "The curse of modern educa­tion is the widespread tendency tovague generalizations, to a smatteringof knowledge in many fields, andfew definite details about anyone sub­ject," . And as I read I re8ected­something not often done when oneis reading against time in an educa­tion course-I reflected that not onlywas such a statement tme in educa­tion, but likewise in nearly everythingelse. How many people there arewho talk with glib facility about everycollege activity, and yet when theyare pinned down to actual . details,how very little information one canget.Everybody on the campus-well,nearly everybody, if the other is toobroad a term-has heard the word"League." Yet you ask what it is, andunless you are fortunate enough toask one of the girls intimately con­nected with it, you are told, "Oh, it'sover in Lexington and nearly all the'girls belong." Perhaps it may be asenior you ask, then, .. It's a religiousorganization-not denominational youknow. It :has a cabinet and it's reallyawfully nice." Likely 'she will add"vague generalities" about the neces­sity of developing the religious side ofcollege life, etc. Rather vague infor­mation, isn't it? But it is usually allone can get.There is going to be a dinnerThursday. the "Friendship Dinner,"it is called, and it is for all membersof the League and other students-itis a League advertisement. I f youcome you will find out rather moreabout what the League stands for­about student vespers, about upper­class counsellors, about \Vednesdayafternoon teas, and mauy otherthings you cannot afford to miss.Miss Senior, you ought to be therein order that when you arc out ofthe fold you wiII know that theLeague is a branch of the Young Wo­men's Christian association and whatit stands for in the life of the collegegirl and the life of the working girl.Miss Freshman, don't wait until youarc a senior to find out.

I FRIARS WILL CONSIDERNEW ELECTION METHOD. --Will Meet Next Tuesday To RatifyOr Reject Plans by Which Manage­ment Hopes To Eliminate PresentEvils.Co. A system of electing members,which plans to do away with the ac­knowledged evils of the. presentmethod, will be presented to theBlackfriars -for ratification or rejec­tion at a meeting Tuesday, March 16,at 10:15. in Cobb 12A. Under the pro­posed method, <the electing is done bythe managerial staff instead of by thebrotherhood as a whole.The following statement has beenissued by the officers of the order:"I t is an accepted fact that the pre­sent method of election employed bythe Blackfriars is unsatisfactory. Pol­itics has been a big factor in most otthe elections and, as a result, severaldeserving candidates fail to be elected. each year. Public sentiment has atlast run so high in its disapproval thatthe time has come when a changemust take place. With the aid andadvice of .several of the old friars,we have drawn up the followingmethod of election which we believeto be comprehensive of all the points-that eliminate most of the faults ofthe present system.'The proposal to the order follows:The Changes Proposed."Be it and it is hereby resolvedthat Article 4, section 2 of the By­laws setting forth the method ofelecting members to the Blackfriarsorganization, is repealed and the fol­lowing amendment substituted:"Article 4, section 2, shall heamended to read as follows:"Brothers in the order shall beelected as follows: After the final per­formance of the annual opera of theBlackfriars, the managerial staff shallmake the following nominations forelection to membershipjn the order;first, all authors who shall have par­ticipated in writing the book of theannual opera; second, those non­members ;writing lyrics or music forthe opera, who shall be deemed wor­thy of election by t.he managerialstaff; third, all non-members who par­ticipated in the opera and who havenot more than two unexcused ab­sences, unless a majority of the man­agerial staff shall deem their attitudeunworthy of election. These nomi­nations shall be made at a meeting ofthe managerial staff at which sevenmembers must be present to consti­tute a quorum. On ratification ofthese nominations by the Executivecouncil, the non-members so nom­inated shall be deemed elected to theorder. The executive council sha11have power to eliminate any non­member or any number of non-mem­bers for cause, by a four-fifths vote.Brothers in the order shall trave pow­er to elect any other non-membernot so nominated by the managerialstaff and not so elected by the Exe­cutive council by a three fifth vote ofthe fnat's present at the annual meet­in 1'.Article 4, section 3, shall be amend­ed to read as follows:UNo candidate elected shall be en­titled to . the full privileges of mem­bership until he shall bave paid an in­itiation fee of three and a balf dol­lars. and have been duly initiated. Nocandidate may be initiated as a broth­er in the order unless he shall havereceived six grade points during theSpring quarter of his participation inthe Blackfriar opera. The ritualshall be that in use by the organiza­tion prior to incorporation. The timeand place of the initiation shall beprescribed by the board of Direc­ton."WILL TAKE PICTURE OFMARSHALS AND AIDESThe picture of die marshals andaides for The Cap and Gown will betaken this aftemoon at 3:30.
