W. C. A.room of Tda Noyes hall. A campuscampaign for the purpose of arousinginterest in the Bok plan begins today un¬der the sponsorship of the newly formedPolitical Science club.This vespers program has been plannedto acquaint campus women with the win¬ning plan in the $100,000 contest con¬ducted by Edward Bok, publisher, .andto point out its strong and weak points.Prof. McLaughlin will explain why thePeace Plan is significant to students or.the campus. His talk will guide voters inthe nation-wide referendum now beingconducted by sponsors of the plan. Menand women on campus will vote on Wed¬nesday, Thursday and Friday. At the Junior class supper which is tobe held next Friday night at 6 in ♦hesun parlor of Ida Noyes hall, the atmos¬phere of informality will prevail andplans are well under way to make thisinitial affair a success, according to How-ard Amick, co-chairman of the Juniorclass.

Man-del hall has been chosen this year insteadof Ida Noyes in order to accommodatethe larger crowd which Federation ex¬pects.The first Fashion Show was held twoyears ago in Ida Noyes theater, whichwas filled to capacity. Last year, thosein charge decided to hold the show inthe main gymnasium of Ida Noyes hall.The crowd Avhich appeared proved thateven the big gym was too small and thatFederation would have to move the show,to larger quarters this year in order toaccommodate the crowd expected.Announce Committee HeadsAimee Graham, who is in charge, hasannounced the committee heads as fol¬lows: Entries, Eleanor Rice; decora¬tions, Martha Leutsker; arrangements,Louise Weitzer, and publicity, JeannetteBaldwin. |Although prizes will lx awarded as |usual, Fashion Show this year will not,* (Continued on page 4) Psychology OffersCure for AutoMenaceAutomobile deaths could be preventedby psychology; tests for drivers, to¬gether with adoption of a standard gearshift, would go a long way toward re¬ducing the death rate from motor acci¬dents.

Unlesssome means for enforcing their wear¬ing can be found, I km sure that they,too, will follow the path a number ofembryo traditions have found. In carrying out the plans for the re¬organization of the Undergraduate coun¬cil to exclude all freshmen representa¬tives except the president, plans for themodification of the election rules havebeen submitted and will be consideredtoday.According to the new plan, nomina¬tions for representatives will be madein chapel the same as for class officers.Some provision will be made for mem¬bers of the class who do not attendchapel. They will probably vote at aspecial meeting. Petitions for nomina¬tion will, according to the plan, behanded into the president of the classnot later than twenty-four hours afterchapel has convened.Each nominee will have a blank to fillout, which will do away with error inthe spelling of names, and he will haveto determine his eligibility some time be¬fore election so that, at the last minute.(Continued on page 2) Judges in the competition for thetwentieth annual Blackfriars’ showyesterday announced their selection ofthe book entered by Jack Oppenheimand Robert Poliak.Oppenheim and Poliak submittedtheir scenario in the Spring quarter,and it was chosen as one of the threepossible productions. William Cotantand Raymond Levy were authors ofthe two other shows considered. Thetrio of manuscripts tentatively ac¬cepted were worked into book formand submitted as complete plays earlyin December.“The three plays selected for finalcompetition were nearly of equalmerit, and it was difficult to choose thewinner,” said Bester Price, Abbot ofthe Order, and one of the judges thisyear. “As a general thing, there isonly one show submitted, and this is,of course, accepted. We were ex¬tremely fortunate in having a numberof very excellent books from which toselect this year.”Authors Sketch PlotOppenheim and Poliak gave a briefsynopsis of the winning book to TheDaily Maroon, yesterday.“The hero, Balzac Bones, a collegera,lv-rah boy with an inexplicable flairfor poetry, is tearfully but firmlvjieted by Cornelia Cuddles, his sweet¬heart. Goaded by desperate thoughtsof a ruined life, Balzac decides to endit all by jumping from the stonebridge of the Botany Pond and drown¬ing himself. About to take the fatalleap, he is deterred by Herr Tonic,professor in the German department,who, upon hearing Balzac’s plight,tells the youth of a wonderful discov¬ery he has made. Herr Tonic, itseems, has found a most potent potion,the elixir of deathless death, thecrystal drink of rebirth. He explainsto Balzac that one swig of the liquidwill transport him to the time ofShakespeare, a second to the days ofPlato, and a third draught will bringhim back to the Midw'ay, with every¬thing as before.“Balzac takes a chance. Manfullyhe drinks of the potion. After a his¬torical survey of the grand and glori-(Continued on page 2)What sort of a crowd will turn outfor the “Bctter-Yet” dance next Fri¬day, I wonder? The whole success ofthe idea will depend on who, and howmany, turn out for the first few par¬ties, for within a week or so, they willeither be branded “good" or “not sogood.” And the branding will deter¬mine the success of the affairs farmore definitely than the stamp of fac¬ulty approval on them.The idea in itself sounds prettygood. Cheap dances, with good music,close enough to the dormitories sothat there is no taxi problem, shouldattract a crowd. But a study of crowdpsychology makes one aware of thefact that a crowd does not always dothe reasonable thing.Toques do not seem to c taking theplace in campus tradition the origin¬ators intended. The seniors feel theyarc too undignified, and to the other The band will be out for the trackmeet next Friday night with North¬western University, in the hope ofbringing out a larger crowd than hasattended the track meets in past years.“Lonnie” Stagg vouchsafes the factthat if the band isn’t potent enough tobring an audience, the track team willtry being hosts at a mixer after themeet.The Federation of University Wo¬men intends to settle the questionwhether University students readbooks or not, at their pow-pow to¬night And not only tue question ofwhether they read books, but of whatbooks and how many will also be ans-swered. The results should be inter¬esting, if not educational. Debaters Meet TwoOpponents Friday POLYSIC STUDENTSORGANIZE CLUB INSTUDYING POLITICSTwo of the three judges for the de¬bate with Northwestern Friday night atMandel hall have been chosen. Theyare Bryce M. Stewart, former RoyalCommissioner of Unemployment for theDominion of Canada, and James Mullen-bach, member of the Board of Educationof Giicago. Both Mr. Stewart and Mr.Mullenbach are recognized authorities inthe field of labor problems.The debate, for which Dean ErnestH. Wilkins will act a,s chairman, is uponthe question of the adoption by theUnited States of England's IndustrialDisputes act. Alrik Gustafson, MauriceKaminsky and Philip Wain will upholdthe affirmative for Chicago, while North-western’s team will contend on the nega¬tive side. While the affirmative team ismeeting Northwestern at Mandel hall,the negative team .composed of CarrollChristinson, Ted Ray and Richard Dem-eree, will take issue with Michigan onthe latters’ rostrum. They will leave forAnn Arbor Thursday noon, accompaniedby Coach Homer Hoyt. In a meeting in Harper M-ll lastThursday night, the Political Scienceclub of the University was formed,thirty-five students of the departmentbeing enrolled as charter members.The club was begun by the Departmentof Political Science as a medium for theobserving of practical politics by under-J graduate members of the University.It is open to every student interestedj in political science.To show that the club is working ona practical basis, the selection of officerswas made according to the Hare planof proportional representation, which isbeing studied by the department in gen-( eral. By this method, the club electeda governing board of five officers, whichi includes John Merrimam, SeymourBerkson, Max Swerin, Melbourne Boyn-| ton and Stewart Mulvihill. Of this num¬ber, Merriam was chosen president ofI the board, and Berkson, secretary-treasurer.i In addition to the election of officers,a constitution was proposed and adoptedin the first meeting.VIPage Two THE DAILY MAROON, TUESDAY, JANUARY 15, 1924(Ehp Daily iBarnmtThe Student Newspaper of theUniversity of ChicagoPublished morniuKS. except Saturday, Sunday and Monday during the Autumn,Winter and Spring quarters by The Dallydaroon Company.Entered as second class mail at the Chi¬cago PostolTice, Chicago.

Van ZantOf course the overwhelmingly abviousthing to say about the Tower Players'production of “Catherine the Great" is—Will Ghere. The way in which the mantook a subordinate part and made thewhole piece revolve around it, was little-short of marvelous. And his work an-nhilated a campus superstition—one towhich I myself have subscribed in thepast—namely, that Ghere has only onepart. The suavity and slyness of hisPatiomkin were unique, I think.The rest of the cast wisely kept outof his way and were content to give com¬petent support, although Seward Covertmight have added considerably to thecomedy if his characterization of theEnglish officer had been less wavering.Baring’s “Catherine Parr” was disap¬pointing.

It could be easily adaptedfor automobilists, according to Mr. May¬berry.Toy Automobie UsedThe would-be driver is seated at r.table on which a miniature city is ar¬ranged. The streets are provided with!moving models of street cars, atitomo-1biles, and pedestrians; and among these Ihe must move a car in safety. He con¬trols his car by means of electric devices.'Meanwhile the man who administers thetest sits opposite and operates the othervehicles. Tie places pedestrians in peri- jlous situations, stage traffic jams, and]creates all kinds of tight places for the]prospective driver, who must thread hisiway from one end of the city to theother.Such a test could not be absolutely ac¬curate ,Mr. Mayberry said, in determin¬ing a driver’s ability. But in the ma¬jority of cases it would indicate his re¬sponsiveness to stimuli. For example,it would show whether he were promptin turning to the right as soon as cir¬cumstances required such a turn.Other forms of driving ability, lieadded, could be tested in other ways.As another means of preventing acci¬dents, Mr. Mayberry declares that psy¬chologists advocate a uniform gear shift,to be required by law on all cars.OFFICIAL NOTICESChicago Symphony Orchestra willgive its regular concert today at 5:15in Mandel hall.

AND DELTA CHI FILE CAGE PROTESTSNorgren Out to Mend Holes in Varsity DefenseMAROONS MUSTSHOW CLASS TOWIN SATURDAYWeaknesses in DefenseShowed Up by ButlerContestIf Chicago is to land in the upper halfof the list this year the cage team willhave to show a different brand of play¬ing than was demonstrated Saturday.The Maroons played listless ball andlacked the punch that was displayed inboth the Yale and Northwestern contests.Norgren had been working on a cut-ingame, but his proteges seemed to forgethis teachings. Butler’s five-man defensehad this system stopped, and the Maroonswere unable to break through.The replacing of Weiss and Barta byDuggan and Barnes instilled a little pepinto the local five, but pep didn’t scorebaskets, and even this soon began todie out.Norgie will probably have to start allover again this week and teach his for¬wards to shoot. Then when they arereasonably sure of making a few pointshe can start in with his cut-in game, inthe hopes that his men will be able towork it more succesfully against the In¬diana conference five than they couldagainst the visitors from the same state.Defense will have to be strengtheneda great deal if the Maroons wish to beatthe Hoosier lads. The Pagemen simplyshot over their heads, and then whenthe Maroons went up to take the ballaway from them, broke up the defensecompletely.Passing was notably weak and willhave to be improved upon. Instead ofholding the ball until the other team’sdefense has a chance to form and thenpass it to one of their opponents, theMaroon men will have to learn to getrid of the ball immediately, and workit to within easy scoring distance.Norgren will have a whole week towork on these things and an entirelydifferent brand of ball should be seen,this week-end with the invasion of theHoosiers. A fast passing game that isexpected to sweep the visitors off theirfeet and should produce the same resultsas against Yale.THE STANDINGSStandings of the four fraternity intra¬mural basketball leagues before and after They’re Been TrainingSeveral Weeksfor ThisChicago football men who dur¬ing the entire fall have been thecenter of the stage will yield totheir superiors when they sit in theaudience tonight and cheer the Fol¬lies to greater efforts.

Bears from the 10:15men, Tigers and Camels from the 11 :15(Continued on page 4) Protest of two of the games of theschedule of last week in the intramuralbasketball program developed yesterday.The Kappa Sigma-Delta Chi battle,which was won by the first team 8-7,and the Phi-Psi-Sigma Alpha Eplisonwon by the former 12-11 after an over¬time game, are the contests in question.Decision is to he handed down todayby Dr. Molander as an unprejudiced of¬ficial after conference with Townsendand Davis, who refereed the games.The Detla Chis brought up their com¬plaint through the captain Quackenbushand he made a statement last night whichwas substantially the same he reportedto the officials. His claim follows:“With a very short time left to play thereferee blew his whistle and threw uphis hands with the itnention of calling apersonal foul on one of the opposing team.After he had stopped play the time¬keeper’s whistle blew, indicating the endof the contest. The official then calledthe game over and refused to allow thetry for the free throw, which was duethe Delta Chis. The score was eight toseven, and the possible score would havetied the game.Cairn No Four CalledFerry, of Kappa Sigma, speakingyesterday for the first time, said: “Thetimekeeper blew his whistle when thescore was eight to seven and was imme¬diately followed by the referee to denotethat the game was over.

E. team is based on theactual time of the game and not theovertime period. Sullivan of the losershad this to say yesterday: “When afoul was called by the referee the play¬ers were lined up to let our man shoot,since a personal had been committed onhim. As he was about to throw the hallHobscheid of the Phi Phis blocked himand the throw was ineffectual. The ref¬eree allowed the S. A. E. to take thatshot and take another for a personalfoul hut since he was in the seventeen-foot line, it is our contention that heshould have had the privilege of twoshots. This is the basis of our conten¬tion.”Forkel of the winners said that therewas an argument going on at the time theS. A.

Thisyear's quintet ies made up of largermen than last year and have moretight and drive than the old squad.Prominent in the future success of theVarsity is the addition of "Babe”Alyea, Sophomore ace to the squadand the marked improvement of theveterans Duggan and Smidl. Barnescan be relied on to play up to his lastyear's standard and should prove atower of strength to Norgren’s doorgame.Captain Dickson should improve asthe season progresses and his knee isnot expected to hamper him as muchas last season. Weiss is reliable andwill continue to play his same con¬sistent game. Barta, a newcomer tothe team and former running mate ofBarnes, will also make his appearancethis year and combined with some oflast year's subs will give Norgren ahost of standbys which should bringthe Maroons well towards the top inthe Big Ten race.NEW INTRA-MURAL LEAGUESTARTS TONIGHTPROBABLY A C. & A.

Each group will exhibit sport,street, afternoon, and formal apparel.Eleanor Rice, who is in charge of theentries states specifically that self-madeclothes means clothes made by the girlherself and not by dressmakers or thefamily; the latter type will be includedin the ready-made group.Entries, this year, will be on the basis,of individuals and not organizations, inorder to insure that only suitable clotheswill be shown. Organizations have lieenasked, however, to co-operate with themanagement of Fashion Show by urgingtheir members to enter. Any Universitywoman is eligible for entrance in anyof the specified groups.
