If so, it will bethe first snow battle the Chicago el­even has engaged in for several years.The last occasion was the Minnesotagame of two years ago, when theMaroons journeyed to Minneapolisand found a raging blizzard.That time' the snow and wet favoredthe Gophers, but this year it will bethe Chicago team that will benefit.Two years ago Stagg had' a lightteam under the leadership of Pete\ yards on end runs and trick forma-'yards on end runs an dtrick forma­tions. The slower and heavier Minne­sota eleven depended on line buckingtactics exclusively, and with a slip­pery field to aid them, took the' con­test.Maroons Strong PlungersThis year it is a 'different story.Stagg has a backfield which has'demonstrated its ability to' gainground by the straight; footballroute, and has shown little in the wayof open-formation. The Maroons un­doubtedly have the spread plays, butthey' are depending more on plungesto score.Zuppke's squad is in the same po­sition as the Chicago team of twoyears ago. The Orange and Blue de­pends mainly on complicated playsbuilt on the spread formation, andsuch open field work is not adaptedto such· a field as will be played onSaturday. Even though there islittle snow, the surface will probablybe slippery and poorly adapted toanything but plunges.lIIini Backfield SkilledBut the Illini will 'be far from help­less even with a slow field. TheZUPPlTlan ha"ve "Tank" Charpier inthe backfield who is reputed theequal of Higgins when it comes togaining a few yards through the line.McGregor, a heavy guard, has alsobeen groomed for a back's position,and will undoubtedly be used if thefield is slow.Director Stagg is not depending onthe weather to win Saturday's con­test for him, however, but is laYingon the work. Despite the snow andcold the eleven was sent through astiff workout outdoors, and thengiven a little drill in Bartlett. PatPage's freshman squad worked theIllinois plays with little success inthe ground gaining line, as the wea­ther handicapped them greatly. Staggthen devoted an hour to signal prac­tice, and some work on new plays.Ent('rinJ!

Onegrade admits a man to the associa­tions of, so-called learned societies,A . slighUy lower .grade classifies" aman with the great unwashed, intel­lectually.

Sucha course of action, is, of course, ruin­ous and can lead to very little ad­vancement in the realm of intelelct.It is comparatively easy for a manto become a proficient machine in the-production of high grades, but it isa very different matter to 'deevlop amind that possesses the qualities thatare necessary for original and con­structive thinking, Marks have be­come the object of a servile idolatoryamong students of today, but genuineintellectual culture is not' yet theobject of such a ruling- passion.
