Withthis unusually large amount of ma­terial a fair representation in allevents is assured, and the "dope"would give Chicago a team of cham­pionship calibre.Coach Eck, veteran track mentor,and trainer of the Maroon champion­ship cross country team, has beenplaced in charge of the track -ath­letes during the absence of DirectorStagg, who has been called East fora short time. The Maroon coach ishighly optimistic over the early show­ing of the squad and expects to havethe men lined up for strenuous workbefore the end of the week.�:s.�.""�",,,,-,,,,,,�:,-:_....- "'"- .... -.-�--- - � ....Fr'· Diamond to Coaipete. .Diamond, who tied Meredith'sworld record in the quaner mile lastyear, is again enrolled in the Uni­versity and has reported for work.This is· 'Diamond's last 'quarter otConference competition, and. the oneambition of the colored star is to seta new world's indoor zecord in hisevent.

JANUARY 10. 1917.•DESERVING OF SUPPORT.The Interfraternity council is notsatisfied with the outcome of the Al­pha Delta Phi-Delta Tau Deltapledge tampering case. If the moreor less unofficial reports concerningthe faculty;s action on the questionare true, one can not blame the Coun­cil for its attitude. For severalyears this organization has beenlooked upon as a campus joke, a so�ciety of no value and no purpose. Inthe past few years it has inade some- verY able and very. successful at­tempts to be worthy of a Place' onthe eampns, but it has not reached itsmaximum point of service or etfi­�cy. It has formulated a definitesystem of l'UShlng rules which 'havebeen accepted by �he. fraternities,and at the start of this 'acadelnic.year. made an effort to �nforce tiieSe���io�. "The c8Se �n question� no� a .quibble o�r small mat­terS, it involVed a very vital pOint inthe rushing system at this UniV'ei;rity.It also involved a question l)f theability o� the Interfratemity councilto handle important issues before it.T4? ·�un�i1 took definite 8Cti'on; was'solid In Its opinion on the tte. lila r,P1'e�nted the case to the faCUlty andrecerved no definite result. •�e one case is not the itnpon;antPGmt.

This exultation takes the - :formof self-will and conceit. The victimgets the laugh for thinking heknows it all But after all his prideof awakening consciousness is butnatural. And!n a little while it isgone as, learning more, the freshmanbegins to glimpse the depths of theproblems iife may have in store forhim."To the senior comes the unhappyrealization that at last after fouryears of hard work he knows butlittle, infinitesimally little, about theriddles of the world he as a fresh­man had thought he would be ableto solve. Rather than increase hisconfidence in his ability to meeteach problem that might confronthim with an answer according tosome true right, his years of studyhave but awakened in him a reali­zation of the very, very little manhas yet come to know of himself andhis world, of right and wrong, ofmotive, of anything he may call ab­solute. He had expected to be ableto face the world confident in hisability to solve its problems and livehis life wisely, herce happily. Butinstead he often finds himself per­haps utterly lost in 3. realm of ques­tions unanswered, 'of facts unknown,a realm in wh�ch he sees little or noabsolute on which to base his judg­ments. Into life he plunges to gainthrough experience a part of theknowledge he had expected to gainin its entirety through his studies."So the senior is inclined to be tol­erant in his realization that heknows very little and knows he can­not fiild out inuch, as he once thoughthe could. This tolerance brings himback to a more normal sense of hisown proportion in the world, and sothe senior is credited with modest,.and .in��ligence. ,But in the end thechief difference between the fresh­man. and the ,�enior is a little sophla- .tication, a little opening of the mindto a consciousness that only 'throughlife can man learn; the senior ismerely sOOm of some of the hopeful­ness, some of the exultation andconfidence that characterized thefres1mlan attitude. It is this in themain that education .has done for him.But if it bas done this truly, if it hasbrought to the individual a realiza­tion that· life is itself nothing buta great school, then edUcation has not­been in vain, EXUltation has fallen;a great question mark risen to takeits place. It is better so."COIDmNICATIONS(Ia �eW of � fad tW the cO.­m1micatiOia eOl.mm fA. the � ....noa ia. ...m�ed .. a � Ia __for lltUdeid .Dil facaltr opbaba. 'DIeMaroOa aeeiept.
