Isa¬belle Kincheloe, member of Federationcouncil and Better Yet committee willpreside at the meeting and will call fora discussion as to what campus senti¬ment is regarding the carrying out of thepurpose, and what measures would bebeneficial in improving its functioning.Invite CriticismWomen have been urged to use thediscussion as an outlet for their senti¬ments regarding the pros and cons ofthe Honor system. Students who haveideas on the subject have been requestedto come and express them for the bene-fit of the committee. Arthur Cody,president of the Honor commission andother members of that body have beeninvited to attend. University men whoare interested in the discussion have al¬so been invited.Lack of knowledge among campusstudents of the functioning of the com¬mission, accounts for the apparent lackof interest in it, according to HelenWells, who is president of Federationand a member of the Honor commission.“The commission should he a vital partof campus life, and Federation feelsthat every student should know about itswork, and have an opportunity to giveconstructive criticism.” Plans for im¬provement as suggested at the meetingwill be used as a future working basisIn the Better Yet committee. Hydrogen One AndOnly Element—Harkins LEADERS MAKEALLOTMENT OFPROM TICKETSAfter upsetting the old theory of thefour chemical elements by discoveringa hypothetical ninety-two, the predictionhas been made by Prof. William D.Harkins of Kent Laboratories, thatthere is but one fundamental element¬ary compounds of helium with hydrogen,according to my theory,” said Dr. Har¬kins, “and helium itself is built up fromhydrogen.”When an element is not an element,it is very apt to he isotopes, accordingto Dr. Harkins who has been conductingthe hunt for chemical masqueraderswhich led to this conclusion. Experi¬ments are being carried on now in theseparation of zinc, a heretofore undis¬puted element which has been made de¬classe as one of the ninety-two elements.As a result of five years of experi¬ment by Dr. Harkins, who has beencalled by scientists the “greatest author¬ity today- in the separation of chemicalelements into isotopes,” time-honoredchlorine, the first poison gas used byGermany in the war, was found to be atwin gas.

TO PRESENTFAKE BALIEFF ATINTER-HALL SHOWServe Refreshments Beforeand After VodilProgramCOLLECTION OF STONE RELICSREVEAL GIANTS OF AGES AGODonor in Southeastern Africa Writes Letter to Prof. Cole Tellingof Important Archaelogical DiscoveriesA giant people that antedate theChristian era by 60,(KM) years—possibly(>00,000—may be revealed by a numberof engraved stones and stone weaponsthat are now on their way to the Uni¬versity from Pretoria, Transvaal, insoutheastern Africa.A letter telling of the discovery ofthese archaeological objects has just beenreceived by Dr. Fay-Cooper Cole, pro¬fessorial lecturer on anthopology at theUniversity from a collector who givesas his dadress Transvaal University inPretoria. The sender of the letter isunknown to officials at the University,but from the contents of the letter re¬ceived ,it is evident that he has someknowledge of primitive man.Stones Engraved With PicturesAccording to the letter, the stonesare engraved with remarkably stpallpictures portraying the life of this primi¬tive people. ’In order to make out all!details of the pictures,’ the letters says, j‘the stones must he examined under amagnifying glass.’ The \yriter con-(eludes that the primitive men ‘whoworked out these pictures on pieces oflava and natural rock must have beengifted with remarkable eyesight.*The thory that this race of people arcof giant size is drawn from the factthat their weapons are of such tremend- j ous dimensions.‘They must have Ixien a people fromeight to ten feet tall in order to handlesuch weapons,’ the letter says.“Find” May Be of ValueI f any of the statements set forth bythe sender of the letter and the stoneobjects prove true the ‘find’ will be ofgreat scientific importance, according toDr. Cole.‘We know very little about the forerunners of the present African peoples,’Dr. Cole said. ‘And if any light canhe thrown on the African native of60,000 years ago as is promised in thisletter, it will be the first informationthat we have been able to obtain aboutprimitive peoples in that part of theworld.Relic of the Stone Age‘The objects that make up this collec-1tion are prol>ably from the stone agecivilization.‘I doubt that a race of people as tallas the writer describes ever existed.Often weapons of unusual size werefashioned by primitive peoples to be usedat their ceremonies as in the case ofthe American Indian who used an ar¬row head six feet long for symbolic pur¬poses,’ Dr. Cole pointed out.‘I believe, though, that the collectionwill prove to l>e of some significance andwell worth our study,’ Dr. Cole said.

Preliminary to anyaction which the special committeemay take either upon the commissionor upon the honor spirit at the univer¬sity, the Federation of UniversityWomen will devote their meetinf to¬night to a discussion of the honotsentiment at the University.The Federation is doing somethingworth while. It is a stimulatingthough among the women here concertiing an issue which has had far toomany flaws to be, in its expressionentirely useful to te student body.Over a long period of years there hasbeen a laissez faire attitude takentoward the commission, what it hasaccomplished and what it should ac¬complish. There is considerable doubtin the minds of many as to what itshould accomplish. Undergraduateshave failed to see the curious anomo-lies in connection with the organiza¬tion and its relation to classes andinstructors.The Federation is opening a forumwhere thought processes among thewomen, at least, may start to func¬tion in regard to the university’s honorpolicy. We hope that, once somekind of student thought is given thequestion of student honor, some valu¬able suggestions may be submitted totlie Better Yet committee.Within a day or so The Daily Ma¬roon will publish an epitome of stu¬dent opinion regarding the commis¬sion and the honor policy, with sug¬gestions for improvement.

If the quality,let alone the amount, of food seemsto slacken for a couple of meals, therearises a bellow which roars and echoesand resounds amongst us. In Europethousands of students live on onemeal per day.Cold, unheated rooms, bad clothing,poor food and little of it, universitiesfunctioning inefficiently; all thesethings are endured with rare patienceby some hundreds of thousands otEuropean students. Such is theirthrist for education. We -Americanstudents have nearly everythingfi wcneed, most of us, and our attitude isgenerally one of nonchalance andennui.There is food for thought in thecontrast.

DISTANCE SHOTSMARK WORK OFHAWKEYETEAMIowa’s Proficiency in LongThrows Seen AsVarsity HoodooWhen Maroon cagemen invadeIowa City this week-end to meet theHawkeye cagemen they will meet analtogether different proposition thanthey were confronted with in theWisconsin tilt. It is true that theHawkeyes also use a pivot game forwhich “Norgie” has deevloped newdefense, but unlike the Badgers, theHawks resort to long shots and fol¬low them in when they are unableto work the ball down the floor.In this particualr style of play theIowa quintet is especially adapted, allof the men being rangy and averag¬ing over six feet in height. Janse,all-conference forward last year, whois playing the center position sincethe loss of Captain Burgitt, is thebest long distance shot in the circuit.Against Purdue he sank six long onesin the last half and won the gamefor his team.Varsity on Strange FloorThe Maroons will be handicappedby playing on a strange and largefloor. This factor seemed to bothertheir shooting in the Northwesterngame and the Iowa gym or armory issimilar to Patten gym. Both teamswill be hampered equally by the newfoul rule, as Barnesof the Varsityand Funk of Iowa were the high pointmen in the Conference last year be¬cause of their ability to shoot fouls.Iowa with four veterans back fromlast year’s championship five seemsto have hit a slump due to the lossof Captain Burgitt, the fifth man fromthe championship team who at pres¬ent is out of school. So far theyhave lost games to Ohio and Michi¬gan, who on paper figure to be muchi weaker combinations.Hawkeyes Take RestThe Hawkeyes are taking a week’srest as part of their preparation forthis week’s game with the Maroons(Continued on page 4)U The perfectcream in the perfect container”(T/iis is the way one user describes Williams and the new Hinge-Cap)WillisrstsShawijgCream Men buy Williams expecting to findtheir main satisfaction in the Hinge-Cap.

The littlepiece appended is a sort of combina¬tion salad—sometime it rhymes andsometimes it doesn’t. Try it on youdguitar.JUST WHENJust when all is bright and the caresare light,Then out of nothingnessComes the black mask of ill-fate,Destroying the hopes unbounded,W'th a suddenness of lightning, de¬structive, ruthless;It its path, blasts the soul of desire,Leving love unfounded.—Chester Frederic.BULLETINFraternity Row, Jan. 28. (Dopey-right, 1924).—The Delta Chi shieldwas unceremoniously swiped from theDelta Chi mansion the other night.Since this shield was a gift of the So¬ciety for the Suppression of Crueltyto Dumb Animals, and was presentedto the brothers in 1812, during theWar of the Roses, and as it is believedthat this presentation was only one ofthe three unauthorized imitationspranks peculiar to this time, it is theearnest desire of the chapter that theshield be returned, dead or alive.Otherwise the fraters will tell thecops. (Continued from page 3)at Iowa City. Sam Barry is makingevery effort possible to get his quin¬tet out of their present slump and incase he succeeds it is still not toolate for them to finish in the lead.The Varsity in last week's decisivevictory over the Badgers proved thatXorgren has developed a winning fivion the Midway. The Maroons arenow a finished team and all of the rawedges have been removed. They havea variation of attack, the one thingw'hich lost them the Butler game andall of the men are becoming moreaccurate in their basket shooting.Against the Badgers every player onthe team scored a field goal.Uncertainty Marks Big TenElsewhere in the conference uncer¬tainty continues in Big Ten basketballwith the additional upset of Wiscon¬sin, who along with Iowa was theearly season favorite.Michigan at the present time topsall conference teams and as yet havereceived no reverses. The Wolverinewere slow at rounding into form inpractice games, but once the BigTen season wa's on they seemed tohit their stride . Their dismal show¬ing against Minnesota, a compara¬tively weak but consistent quintet,whom they were only able to beat bya one-point margin, points them outas being an in-an-out team which cannot be expected to finish or to winin the long run.Fraternity row is right!RESUME COLLEGIQUEVI.Th books on college life one readsAre silly and insane;Their optimistic statementsGive me an awfaul pain.The President is “Proxy,”And he’s fond of roguish pranks;The profs, are villians in disguise.They’re musty, crusty cranks.With rah-rah boys on every team,Who always seem to pass,Yet always go to football gamesMore than they go to class.Before I learned the fatal truthI thought this all was so,But—It’s not what it’s cracked up to be,That’s one thing that I know—Some loaf their way through collegelifeAnd labor always shirk,But if this lffe is Loafiing,Then I don’t want to Work.—Terrible Turk.
