TUESDAY, MARCH II, 1924General Newsin BriefBy Gilbert LongstreetThe city of Dublin is just now ina state of turmoil over the last fewdays’ mutinous outbreaks in theIrish national army. The officialcommunication issued on Saturdaynight called for the arrest of MajorGeneral Tobin and Colonel Dalton,and brought to light several minordesertions and thefts of militaryproperty. Most of the Soldiers in¬volved are not enlisted men, butofficers, Tobin and Dalton being re¬garded as chiefly responsible. Theformer has so far evaded arrest, andstated to press representatives thatthe mutiny was a result of the com¬pulsory demobilization of about 900officers last week, including Tobinhimself. At a political gatheringheld in Dublin and attended byPresident Cosgrave, the speakerswere constantly interrupted by con¬flicting cheers, and a nearby shopwas set or, fire, adding to the gen¬eral disturbance.* * *The Poincare tax bill meets itsfinal test this week when it comesbefore the French Senate. ThePremier threatened the Presidentwith the resignation of his wholecabinet if the issue were postponedany longer, and it will accordinglybe brought up to-day. M. Poincareis risking his office on the question,for it is doubtful whether the Sen¬ate will accept the clause empower¬ing the government to enact certainmeasures by decree. The Premier,the President, and some officials ofthe Bank of France conferred Sun¬day on how to save the franc fromfurther depreciation; the proposalsbrought forward included establish¬ment of a dictatorship and forma¬tion of a cabinet composed of busi¬ness men selected irrespective oftheir political affiliations.* * *An unusual experiment is beingcarried out in Hudson County, NewJersey, by Cupreine Court JusticeMinturn, who has ordered enforce¬ment of the “blue laws" passed in1798. His purpose is to impressupon would-be reformers the com¬plete absurdity of attempting to ap¬ply Calvinistic moral legislation tomodern America. On Sunday, spe¬cial police moved about through Jer¬sey City, taking the names of alloffenders, and accordingly some 30,-000 cases will be brought before thegrand jury this week. The policeofficials are acting without the helpof any special ordinance, for NewJersey, like the New England states,has never repealed the old Puritanlaws, hut has merely allowed themto lie unenforced.Inaugurate New Y.

Vesper service to beheld tomorrow at 4:30 in the recep¬tion room of Ida Noyes hall. Prof.Din, a representative of the Amadiamovement in Islam, editor of “TheMoslem Sunrise,” a quarterly, andMissioner to Mohammedanism, is atpresent a student of the University“The fact that Prof. Din is to dis¬cuss his own religion, in which he isvitally interested, and about whichhe is widely informed, naturallyleads to a more interesting presenta¬tion of the subject than could pos¬sibly be made by anyone not soclosely connected with the religion,”said Antoinette Forrester, chairmanof Vespers. “Better-Yet” dances will be defin¬itely postponed until the 1924 Au¬tumn quarter by the advice of Bet¬ter Yet committee thirteen, headedby John Hawley Roberts. The com-hittee report showed a deficit of$27.66 for the dances conductedduring the Winter quarter.In its report to Dean Ernest HatchWilkins, who has complete charge ofthe “Better Yet” movement, thecommittee states that during th2Winter quarter five all-Universitydances were held in the Reynoldsclub with an admission fee of fiftycents. Judging from the total at¬tendance at the affairs, the commit¬tee feels that “there is not at pres¬ent on campus as much demand forthese dances as was supposed.”Give Financial ReportThe committee’s financial reportis as follows:Music $220.00Printing 9.7 5Refreshments 28.51Reynolds club 48.40Total expenses $306.66Total proceeds 279.00Debit $ 27.66Dean Wilkins, in a statement toThe Daily Maroon, said, “I do notknow as yet just how this deficit willbe made up. but I am studying thematter now.”Considering the lack of interestindicated by the attendance at thelast dances in the Reynolds club, thereport states that the committee.(Continued on Page Two)COOLIDGE BOOSTERS FORMCLUB Circle for MarchGoes on SaleTomorrowCoolidge club, an organizationcomposed of Coolidge adherents oncampus, will hold its first officialmeeting, open to all who are inter¬ester, tonight at 7:30 in Ida Noyeshall.

Sterling. Alice Salomon, “the Jane Adamsof Germany,” is to lecture on ‘‘In¬dustrial Conditions in Germany,”next Saturday at 4.30 in Harper As¬sembly room. Dr. Salomon has beenvery active in public life for the lastthirty-two years. As a lecturer sheis sought in Germnny by conferencesof national scope and importanceconcerning social questions and wo¬men’s work, and also by many inter¬national organizations.Dr. Salomon’s lectures are llferybroad in scope. Some of her* pre¬vious lectures have been on ‘tfheStability of the Existing regime inGermany,” “The Principles of So¬cial Work,” “Women in German Pol¬itics,' and kindred subjects of im¬portant world problems. Over-ZealousThugs CheckUp on WorkHolding up the same man swice ino.ne night—and an armed night-watchman at that—is the last wordin the highwayman’s art. This mis¬take should not be criticized too se¬verely, however; they were onlyafraid of missing somebody.Yesterday morning at 1:45, FrankScully, University night watchman,was walking his beat on 59th street,when a large touring car drew upto the curb in front of Foster hall.Two me.n alighted and began look¬ing over the tires.It appeared that there was noth¬ing vitally wrong with the tires; foras Officer Scully neared the car, oneof the men wheeled on him, andsinking a gun in his ribs, orderedScully to hold up his hands. In aninstant, the confederate thug was onthe scene with a second gun, andthe shining star and revolver failedto protect.Scully was asked how much moneyhe had with him. “One day’s sal¬ary. And say,” he continued, “youaren’t going to take that are you?”He was disappointed.“Now beat it,” they told him.Sometime later, just as Scullywas beginning to feel comfortable,he felt the same feeling in his ribsagain. It was the same gang. Hehurriedly assured them that he hadnot called for an encore, and thebandits went their way.Six Frosh DebatersChosen in FirstTryoutsSix prospective members of thefreshman debating team, five menand one woman, were picked by acommittee of five judges last Fridayafternoon in Cobb lecture hall out ofthe eighteen aspirants for team posi¬tions who turned out at the prelimin ary tryouts.Harry Balaban, Lester Seidner,Harry Ruskin, Donald Robertson.Philip Kaus ,and Carolyn Royall re¬ceived the majority vote of thejudges i.n the tryout, while ArthurBerezniak, Albert Daugherty, andHarry Kipnis were given alternatepositions.From the first six speakers, threewill be definitely picked to representChicago in a debate between eitherIowa State or Illinois duripg the sec¬ond month of the Spring quarter.Should any of the six be declaresdineligible the alternates will taketheir places. A scholarship for o.nequarter’s tuition will be awardedeach of the three making the Fresh¬man team.Mr. H.

Thisseems to be the sentiment of theclub members, who regard the ex¬periment as unsuccessful, and lookforward to a change next year or tonew experiments with the old data.Rushing, an institution involvingmany superficialities, has been ex¬tended over a long period. Thefrenzied activity formerly character¬ized the opening weeks of the yearhas been dragged on into the win¬ter months, and the undergraduateantagonisms have accompanied th"procedure. Two quarters, with rush¬ing going on almost every day, havetaken the ploce of two weeks, whererushing, as now, wont on every day.But there is a further objection—now the rushee is only allowed oneparty a quarter; for the others,which are, technically, not rushingparties, she, herself, pays.If some method could be adopted, |whereby there would be a heavypenalty for including rushin. m thedaily social program, and if humannature were not as it is, the .numberof parties might be restricted andthe long period system successful.But under present conditions, theold worries and the old enemitieshave taken new forms, and are ap¬pearing as disguised nightmares.Club women tell us that the fresh¬men, without the club guidance, are.not keeping up to the acceptedscholastic standard. Whether theclub, with its essentially social em¬phasis is important enough to guidethe scholastic destinies of the fresh¬men, we are unprepared to say.Such statements, however, show thatthe upperclass members of he or¬ganizations feel that the presentsystem has flaws in it, and that rem¬edial action should he taken at once.At least, there is no really interestedgroup of upperclassmen who may advise the freshmen on the relativevalues of campus activities.The Better Yet committee inves¬tigating the club situation, may havesomething to say in this matter. Itmight even find a substitute for aclub. Such action would be highlycommendable, to our notion. How¬ever, under existing conditions,there should be the best possiblesolution of the problem.There is at present, waging inChicago an internal industrial strug¬gle to which little atention has beendirected, due to the lack of publicity.For approximately two weeks, 3,500garment workers principally womenhave been on strike, but, fortunately,little is as yet generally known ofthe circumstances and issues involv¬ed in the situation. Feeling that itis with the spirit of interest, to care¬fully observe industrial conflicts ofthis nature, several members of this jUniversity have devoted some efforttoward an appreciation of the actualfacts.We have, therefore, arranged tohave Mr. Thomas Holland, labormanager of Hart Shaffner and Marx,and Dr. Ralph W. Gerard, of Hullhouse, both of who have been un-biazed observers of the developmentsof the strike, speak to the studentsof this institution on the issues of thecontroversy and conditions prevail¬ing.This meeting will be heTd underthe auspices of the Liberal club, to¬morrow at 4:30 in Clasics 10. Wehonestly request that the students onthis campus take this opportunity tolearn that regarding the garmentworkers’ strike.Max Swiren,Altjx Elson,Liberal Club.REPORTED DEFEATCAUSES DROPPINGOF “B. X."

Coach Spvros Vorresof the Midway school, who is incharge of the meet, has already re¬ceived the entries of seventy-two menand is making elaborate plans for theaccommodation of the grapplers whorepresent the best that the middlewest can offer.Two rings will be going on bothnights, thus promising plenty of ac¬tion for those who are interested inamateur wrestling.Each school has been allowed toenter one man in each w’eight. Here¬tofore only the four best men in aparticular class contended for thechampionship honors.The heavyweight contest will bringtogether some of the heaviest and fast¬est beef in the country. Steele ofOhio State and McMillan of Illinoisare given the edge in this division,with Krasuski of Iowa and Fisher ofIndiana strong contenders.Sarpalius of Chicago is favored inthe 175 pound class. “Sarf” has bowedto none so far this year and has agood past record, having copped theconference laurels in 1022. He will, atleast, hegiven some good workoutsby James of Iowa and Wilson of In¬diana.Some hard bouts are promised inthe middleweight division which willbring tofgcther such men as Capt.Player of Illinois. Swain of Indianaand Hathaway of Northwestern. Onlyone of these men has lost a bout thisyear and none have thus far met totest their ability.The welterweights have been spring¬ing surprises all during the seasonwit'll the result that predictions inthis class are difficult. Dye of Pur¬due. Reed of Indiana. Rose of Michi¬gan and Tsoulos of Chicago havemade good records for themselves thisyear and are expected to show somegood wrestling in the final bouts.Miller of Purdue and O’Brien ofIowa are scheduled for the finals inthe 135-pound class, and Ball of Chi¬cago and Kenney of Illinois appearto have things to themselves in the125-pounders. Squawking, or yelling wher.scooped, seems to be gaining favoras a requisite part of the new jour¬nalism, as being practiced by ourmetropolitan contemporaries. TheMaroon Sporting Department, there¬fore, is going to do a little squawk¬ing on its own account this morning.The Maroon was scooped Sundayon the best University sporting storyof the year, namely, the proposednew $300,000 field house to be erect¬ed by Jhe University. That piece ofnews was of greatest interest toevery student on the Universitycampus. Yes, though of consider¬ably less importance to the generalpublic throughout the city, the Tri¬bune, which obtained the scoop, sawfit to headlinf it in letters an inchand one-half high across the firstpage of its Sunday sport section.On inquiry, the gentleman whohandles the publicity for the Uni¬versity athletic department admittedhaving given a story to the Tribunereporter, which he had .not given tothe Maroon, but claimed that thestory, as it appeared in the Tribunewas a gross exaggeration on whta hehad told. What happened, pre¬sumably, was that the Tribune reporter followed up the lead givenhim by the department, made therounds of the University highwaysand byways and pieced together agood story. The Maroon this morn¬ing is squawking because it was notgiven the same chance that the Tri¬bune received.During the 1923-24 season, theMaroon sporting department has at¬tempted expansion along ratherbroad lines. In connection with thisprogram it has cooperated with theathletic administration on every pos¬sible occasion In the matter of pub¬licity for empryo sports programs,such as the intra-mural tourney re¬cently finished.In return, the Maroon has simplyasked a fair deal when real newswas passed out by the department.It didn’t get it in this case.TEHENA nor.ANDANCING ACADEMY03rd Ht. an<l Stony IkIiiihI Avr.BKflINNEKS’ CI.AHSKHMonday and Thursday EveningsAdvanced China Wed EveningPrivate lessons day or evening hy appt.Tel.

The dark horse of the Big Tenbasketball race has come to the fore.Illinois, as a result of her victoryover the Gophers last night looms asa big factor in the Big Ten race, andthe Maroons, if they are to get any¬thing better than a tie for the con¬ference titld^ must beat Wisconsinwhen they play at Madison Satur¬day, regardless of whether Wiscon¬sin herself is put out of the race byIowa tonight, an event which seemsmore than likely to take place.By virtue of her victory last nightthe lllini move a notch nearer thetop, and, with eight victories andfour defeats, threaten a tie for firsthonors with the Maroons in case theVarsity should drop its game thisweek-pnd at Madison.Badger Chances SlightThe fate of Wisconsin as a con¬ference. contender hangs by the thin¬nest of threads. In order to obtaineven a tie for the top, the Badgersmust win from Iowa tonight, andthen take the Maroons into camp onSaturday.Going at the speed they have beent raveling in recent games, the Ma¬roons are admittedly almost unbeat-I able, while Iowa, which has recentlyrounded into championship form, iss now one of the toughest problems inthe conference. The Hawkeyesj have just finished taking the meas¬ure of the Badgers and seem fullycapable of doing so again tonight,although the Madisonites have theadvantage of playing on their ownfloor.The Hawkeyes .since Heinie Jen¬sen has blossomed out In stellarform, have been practically unbeat¬able as Purdue basketmen will tes¬tify. Jensen hung up seven fieldgoals against the Boilermakers re¬cently, and did almost as well in thefirst Iowa-Wisconsin game.His presence in the Connhuskerlineup has restored the necessarythird member to the Janse-Laudccombination, which was lost whenCapt. Burgitt failed to return to theuniversity this year.Jjlnrlistnnc 5hnpSix thirty Michigan Boulevard SouthH.

Utley.Are the expansion plans of the ath¬letic department about to be realized’Is the University to have a new fieldhouse, with the possibility of an en¬larged stagg field seating 51,000 per¬sons. following in the wake of thefield house? These are two of thequestions being asked everywhere fol¬lowing disclosure Sunday of the factthat the university had purchased twotraces of land on Greenwood and| Ellis evenues, north of Stagg field.That Prof. A. A. Staigg and theathletic department eye these piecesof land as a home for a field house,to relieve the present pressure ofBartlett gym is known; that the landhas been thought of along withothers, by a group of faculty mem¬bers, to make it the site of residencesis also an established fact.Action By Trustees SeenAs for the University officialdom,nothing has been done, although thequestion is expected to be up beforethe boa r u of trustees in tne near fu-tnri. Following publication of theplans for a new field house in a met¬ropolitan newspaper Sunday, Presi¬dent Ernest DeVVitt Burton issued astatement on behalf of the Universityafter a conference with A. A. Stagg,stating that “the athletic departmentof the University needs increased fa¬cilities, and provision for them is be¬ing considered.” The statement con¬tinued to state that no plans forbuildings have been approved nor landdefinitely assigned for the purpose.Should the board of trustees, whenthey consider the matter allot the twopieces of land for athletic purposes,the question of an enlarged Staggfield would immediately arise, since in(Continued on page 4)“It’s on even when it’s off”(Does this slogan about the Hinge-Cap deserve a prize ?If not, what better one can you suggest?

The removal ofbaseball from Stagg held would re¬move the only objection to the erec¬tion of permanent east and end stands.Election of these stands, long urgedby sportsmen, has been impossible solong as it was necessary to removethe stands each spring to make roomfor a baseball diamond, but wi'h 'thediamond sport out of the way, possi¬bility of an enlarged Stagg fieldcomes nearer to realization.Enlarged Stadium SeenFigures obtained by those in touchwith the situation following the lastPrinceton game here two years ago.where thousansd were turned awaybecause of the limited seating capacityof Stagg field, indicated that withpermanent east and end stands, Staggfield would seat upwards of 51.000persons. "This,” as was pointed outby a leading ajumnus of the Univer¬sity yesterday, "would permit finan¬cial receipts from the field to equalany other conference University, sinceother institutions receive hut $1.30 to$2.00 for tickets for football gameswhile the University gets $3.00 forall important games. "The Univer¬sity is not in a position of otherschools,” he continued. "It cannot goout of the center of town five blocksand be in the country where it caqget all the land it wants at a nominalcost. For a stadium which Illinoisor any other university could get forone or two million, the Universitywould have to expend possibly fivemillion.” This, he pointed out, wouldnot be sound financial policy.Judson Suggested StadiumThe possibility of an enlarged StaggField was hinted at by PresidentEmeritus Harry Pratt Judson, at adinner of alumni, shortly before hisretirement last year. At that time,President Judson predicted various ad¬ditions to the department of athletics,suggesting that a new stadium as wellas enlarged quarters for indoor sportsmight be provided for in the buildingprogram of the University.MINNESOTA UPSETBOOSTS CHANCESOF DOWNSTATERS(Continued from page 3)lies in the question of the eligibilityof one of Nebraska’s team who wonthe title practically single handed lastyear taking two seconds and a first.If he is not allowed to compete Illi¬nois and Chicago seem to he the logi¬cal contenders with no basis of com¬parison of this year's teams.The other colleges who have sent in their entries are: Wisconsin, Iofv-a,Ohio State, Purdue.Coach Merrill said that Saturdaywill not end t*he Maroon season sinceall the members will enter the clubtournaments which run well into nextquarter.
