The ballots will be printedin all of next week's issues.They will be so prepared that thevote will indicate (1) the choice of thefaculty members as compared with thatof undergraduates and that of graduatestudents, (2) choice of members of eachof the schools of the University as wellas that of members of the colleges, and(3) the choice of the men as comparedwith that of the women. This can beeffected, of course, by appropriate ques¬tions to be answered on the ballot. An¬other question will be, "Are you in aposition to vote on Nov. 4?" Throughthis it can be determined what part ofthe straw vote represents an actual vot¬ing force in the election proper.Judson Endorses PlanPresident Emeritus Harry Pratt Jud¬son expressed himself last night as be¬ing quite in favor of the plan, as thestaff of The Daily Maroon has formu¬lated it.Jerome G. Kerwin of the Departmentof Political Science was consulted onthe plan, and endorsed it, although hebelieves that the final choice of Presi¬dent will quite probably fall to theHouse of Representatives or even theSenate.“In the first place,” he said, in explain*ing this opinion, "the Democratic cam¬paign has failed about as miserably ashas any Democratic campaign for years.The result is that Davis will carry littlemore than the South. La Follette, onthe other hand, has quite a chance tocarry a number of such States as Min¬nesota, North Dakota, and Idaho, al¬though the improvement in farmingconditions in this region lately has tedn-ed to make the people there lietter sat¬isfied with the present administration.It is even conceivable that La Follettewill carry California. Such a followingwould readily tie up the election andprevent a majority in the electoral col¬lege.”House May DeadlockA deadlock in the House of Repre¬sentatives, where the decision wouldnext rest, is quite likely according toMr. Kerwin. Some five or six State del¬egations, he believes, might be evenlydivided as to the votes of their members,and thereby lose their votes as units. Inthe event of a deadlock in the House,the Senate would, of course, elect a Vice-President who would assume the Presi¬dency. Mr. Kerwin believes that tillselection will result in the choice ofeither Dawes or Wheeler.SCORE CLUB TICKETSSALE GOESRAPIDLYTickets for the tenth annual Scoreclub dance are lieing rapidly sold, ac¬cording to Ben Frost, who has chargeof ticket sales. The tickets have beendistributed throughout the campus fra¬ternities and clubs. Because of somemisunderstanding The University Book¬store has not received its quota oftickets. It was announced officially thatthe tickets would be on sale there today.Students were urged by Mort to buytheir tickets early so that arrangementsto accommodate the excessive crowdmay be made prior to the Hallowe’enhop. Although the dance is to be strict¬ly informal, it is expected that it willrival the Washington prom in spiritand action. Dave Peyton who is playingfor the dance, has promised several oddpieces to increase the oddity of the pro¬gram. Tickets may be obtained at theUniversity Bookstore, Woodworth’s andfrom active Score club men for $2.50. Frosh Invade “C”Bench, Dean ExultsWhen five freshman women seatedthemselves on the “C” bench yester¬day afternoon and proceeded to pow¬der their noses, upperclassmen startedbeing excited.To many students, the “C” benchmeans a tradition, and a traditionthat should be observed, while to oth¬ers it means nothing.Glad to See It“I’m glad to see the custom brokendown,” said Dean Talbot “Originallythe bench was intended for everyone,because both men and women helpedto build it. A tradition was thenstarted that freshmen could not useand then pretty soon the women wereexcluded entirely.“I think that freshman women havea perfect right there” she concluded.When asked to define what the tra¬dition really is, Kenneth Laird, Presi¬dent of the Undergraduate Council,said, “The *C’ bench is intended forall but freshmen, and the council isinterested in seeing that this custombe observed to the letter.”The Interfraternity Council offersa solution, however, that is worthconsidering. Howard Amick, speak¬ing for the council, suggested that,perhaps, a new bench be built forfreshman women exclusively.CLUB PLEDGES SELLGO-CHICAGO BUTTONUse This Means to AnnounceRushing ResultsButtons like those used for the III*-,nois-Chicago game last year will beavailable at the mass meeting Thurs¬day, Oct. 23, preceding the Ohio Statefootball fray. The sale will be underthe direction of the pledges of thevarious women’s clubs.This will be the initial appearanceof the pledges and marks the adop¬tion of a new plan for introducing thewomen to the student body. Everypledge will wear the colors of her clubon a head-band. The sale will be acontest between all of the clubs, eachendeavoring to sell the most numberof buttons.Five Hundred SoldLast year all 500 badges were soldin four minutes. This year EuniceHill, appointed by Torn Mulroy totake charge of the women sellingbuttons, predicts that a new recordwill be established. “Those planningto attend the Ohio game will all wantto use these “Go Chicago” buttons asidentification when at Columbus,”said Mulroy. “The slogan will be dif¬ferent from the ones used by otherschools, in that it does not try toarouse any hostile feeling by use ofthe word ‘beat.’ The only place thatstudents can buy these badges will beat the mass meeting.”The Undergraduate council is spon¬soring the sale, the proceeds of whichare to go to the support of the ex-nenses of this organization. ThomasMulroy, head of the council, hopesthat those who cannot go to the gamewill show their spirit by attending the“pep meeting” and buying a button.Prof. Simpson TalksOn Laws of NatureNatural laws and the benefits derivedfrom them in the universe was the key¬note of the lecture given last night inHaskell Assembly room by Prof. Simp¬son of the Divinity School.The talk was the third of a series oflectures on “Science and Religion,”sponsored by the Divinity School.The fac* that natural laws do not ex¬plain but are the means of arriving atexplanations of usual occurrences wasbrought out during the courseof the talk.In conclusion, Prof. Simpson gave hisobjections to the general idea of prog¬ress as conceived by the public. DINNER DANCE TOCAP CELEBRATION) AT BUCKEYE FRAYExtensive Plans for Chicag9Visitors Made byAlumniPlans for an Ohio State-Chicago din-ner-da:tce to be held in the ColumbusElks’ Club headquarters the night ofthe Buckeye game were announced yes¬terday by the Alumni Club of the Uni¬versity of Chicago at Lolumbus.Ticket sales have jumped greatly inthe last few days in anticipation of theelaborate festival extended to Universityof Chicago students.On arrival the rooters, lead by theband, will march to the new Elks Clubbuilding which is to be the Chicagoheadquarters during their stay in Colum¬bus. After the game, a banquet will begiven at the club in honor of the team,followed by a dance which will lastuntil train time at 11 :59 P. M.All students and alumni are invited toattend the banquet and dance. Reserva¬tions should be directed to William S.Harman, President, Columbus Univer¬sity of Chicago Club, Hartman Build¬ing, Columbus, Ohio.Two dollars and fifty cents will becharged, including both banquet anddance.Receive ApplicationsApplicaticns are now being receivedat the Football Office for football tick¬ets in the Chicago cheering section atColumbus. Mr. Griffin announces thatgroup reservations will positively not bereceived after Friday evening.Organize AdvisoryDepartment forGargoylesFrank H. O’Hara, recently appoint¬ed director of undegraduate activities,together with Profs. Percy HolmesBoynton and Bertram G. Nelson, willact as chief advisers in all forthcom¬ing Gargoyle productions.The new plan is a' step toward therealization of a long-standing wish ofthe association for a regular dramaticdepartment organized on the samebasis as the other departments of in¬struction in the University. Therooms in Mitchell Tower which havebeen asigned to the director of activ¬ities wil be used primarily by the dra¬matic association, according to Mr.O’Hara. In addition, permission hasbeen secured for the Gargoyles to usethe Reynolds club theater several daysa week for rehearsals.Ineligibility for public appearanceunder the rules of the University hasoccasioned the retirement of LucileHoerr, president of Gargoyles. CharlesClifford, member of the executiveboard of the organization, has givenup his work because ot graduation.Since, under the new constiution,there is to be a vice president, threeoffices must be filled, and electionswill be held today at 4 in Harper Mil.All active members have been re¬quested to be present by Mari Bacli-rach, recording secretary, who will actas election chairman.Choose Twelve MenTo Debate OxfordTwelve men were chosen at the pre¬liminary tryouts for the team to debateagainst Oxford, held last Tuesday aft¬ernoon, G. L. Dosland, J. A. Gardner,A. Gustafson, Nathan Harrison, A. F.Johnson, R. T. Johnson, B. F. Mayes,Martha V. McLendon, William R. Mor¬gan, T. R. Ray, Harry Ruskin, and S.Turnquist were the ones selected by thejudges . The judges who made thesechoices were Mr. Edwards of the Divin¬ity School, Prot. Puttkammer of theLaw School, Dean T. V. Smith, andH. D. Lasswell, coach. Final try¬outs will be held Friday at 7:30 in theLaw School Building. Campus Hears First WordFrom African ExpeditionThe University of Chicago campusreceived its first word today fromArthur Scott and Harry Biglowe, twoprofessors who, with Hermert Brad¬ley and Mrs. Mary Hastings Bradley,are traveling on foot across theAfrican jungles in British East Africato LakeVictoria N’Yanza. The mes¬sage was sent to Miss Edith Gordon,secretary to Dean Ernest Hatch Wil¬kins, and to Prof. Paul McClintock,in the department of geology.“We are at Kampalla,” Prof. Scottwrites, “hoping to start in a few daysfor Fort Portal. The question thatconfronts us just now is that of get¬ting 1*50 porters to carry our luggage—guns, cameras, etc.—into the Congo.The weather is still cool. There is igolf course right acros from thehotel, but we have had no time toborrow clubs and try our luck.”Use Canned FoodProf. Scott explained that all thefood taken into the interior wascanned. Each member of the partyis supplied with three guns carried bynative porters. The cameras, whichweigh about twenty pounds apiece,are also borne by the natives. Muchof the' trip will be concerned with hunting wild game, Prof. Scott said.The method of hunting lions andtigers, according to Prof. Scott’s pro¬gram, is as follows. Small tents arepitched in the brush, well camou¬flaged, and facing an open space inwhich the animal is scheduled to ap¬pear. The preparations are madeduring the day, but the actual shoot¬ing is done at night. Moonlight isbest for lion hunting, Prof. Scott con¬tends.Hunt AntelopesBefore twilight, an antelope is killedwhich is dragged over the ground tothe open space in the jungle wherethe hunters are to lie in wait. Whennight falls, the hunters wait in theirtents hidden in the brush. When thebeast appears he is sighted by meansof luminous sights with which therifles have been provided. The dan¬ger, Prof. Scott says, comes when thelion decides to approach from behind,a maneouver which would bring himto the tents first.After a few months in the junglesthe party will return to Mombassa,where they will embark for India.China and Sumatra are to be includedin the itinerary. They will return toChicago some time next Spring, it isannounced.

The largenumber of fines makes it necessary tohave a staff of two women and a direc¬tor.Both men and women appear to beequally guiUv m this forgetful habit.In the Spring the fines run the lightest,probably due to the romantic tendenciespresent at that time, and the consequentdisregard for all books. The Fall Quar¬ter is the heaviest for the fine-business,but this can be explained by the unfa¬miliarity of the newcomers in the schoolwith the Library rules.The money received from the fines isused in repairing books and purchasingnew copies.PHI DELTA PHI PLEDGESDouglas Inn of the Internationallefal fraternity of Phi Delta Phiannounce the pledging of Joe Dug¬gan of Chicago, Ill.; John Hardy,of Galesburg, Ill.; Frank Tinsley,of Chicago, Ill.; Henry Eagleton,of Peoria, Ill.These men have been in the lawschool for one or more quartersand for this reason were pledgedprior to the annual pledge day ofPhi Delta Phi, which is Nov. 19. Bobbed Hair, BaldHeads, ConfuseScientists Frosh Sophs to ReceiveCredit far JuniorR. O. T. C. WorkBald headed co-eds! Shining patesabove powdered and petite campuswomen. And yet such will be thefearful and pitiful plight of collegegirls in generations to come if thereis anything to the arguments whichhave been advanced by numerousauthorities in attacking the presentcraze for bobbed and shingled hair.The practical and scientific argu¬ments against the impending calamitycaused quite a furor on the campusami many were the opinions ex¬pounded pro and con.Bratfish Gives OpinionDoc Bratfish, the tonsorial artist ofthe Reynolds club barber shop, wasmore or less acquiescent to the fate¬ful prophecy. “The bald headed menof today,” agreed Doc, “are probablythe best proof of what will happen ifa race continues to keep its hair short.In all probabilities there was never abald-headed cave man. It has been'the weight of woman’s long hair pull¬ing on her scalp which has stimulatedthe hair cells, and together with theknarls and twists in their flowinglocks which necessitated careful at¬tention to their hirsute adornment,which has until now allowed womanto keep intact her crowning glory. Itjs very probable that in the process ofevolution the tendency to have short¬er hair will be inherited from womanto woman, and might perhaps eventu¬ally end in a race of bald headed fe¬males.”Scientists DisagreeOn the other hand, the scientificexplanation of the theory quite em¬phatically discourages the possibilityof such an evolutionary development.Dr. Chamberlain, of the Science de¬partment, who himself has a baldhead, was amused at the logic of the(Continued on page 2)Colorado FreshmenMust Obey RulesThat freshman men at the Universityof Colorado are not treated as lenientlyas those on our own campus was provedwhen eighteen frosh were brought tocourt recently by the sophomores, andcharged with the violation of froshrules. The offences included smokingon campus, failure to salute the profes¬sors, and forgetting to wear their greencaps.Nearly one hundred freshmen havealready been arraigned, found guilty andplunged into the cold waters of VarsityLake, the temperature of which' hasbeen fluctuating between 30 and 35 de¬grees Fahrenheit. Freshmen and sophomores whohave completed three or four years ofhigh school R. O. T. C. training willnc,,ir be able to receive war depart¬ment credit for it, according to an an¬nouncement yesterday by Major F.M. Burrows, professor of MilitaryScience and Tactics.“In previous years,” said MajorBarrows, “a great deal of difficultyhas been encountered in the matterof giving proper credit for Officers’Training Corps instruction pursued atother units. High school R. O. T, C.units receive only infantry instructionwhereas the University of Chicagomilitary unit is of the field artillery.Now, however, the sequence of sub¬jects has been so aranged that stu¬dents coming to this University afterhaving satisfactorily completed fromthree to four years’ work in a highschool or other punior R. O. T. C.unit, may complete the course of thelocal miltary department and thepreparation for the acceptance of acommission in the Officers’ ReserveCorps, in two years after entrance atthe University.”Advance StudentsStudents who have completed thebasic course of a senior unit of anybranch of the service, are also entitledto be p’aced in the advanced courseand to complete the preparation fortheir resrve commissions in two years.Less than three years in a junioroi senior unit of R. O. T. C. is con¬sidered, and is credited according tothe merits of the individual case,Major Barrows explained. Studentswho believe they are eligible for WarDepartment credit should see the mili¬tary commander at once.On Commutation BasisThis change has enabled th»» de¬partment to place a large number ofstudents of the Freshman and Sopho¬more classes upon a commutationbasis. No academic allowance in thematter of majors of work, are ofcourse included in this work, the rec¬ognition pertaining solely to the WarDepartment. The same amount ofwork is required by the military de¬partment in the preparation for a re¬serve commission as in previous yearsfor those who have had no previousmilitary experience.PLANS FOR CHEERING CINAUGURATED BYSCORE CLUBScore Club Sophomore society willtake charge of the newly inaugurated“Cheering C,” like that used in thelast few games last year, at the Indi¬ana game next Saturday. The per¬sonnel of the C will consist of approx¬imately 220 men recruited from thefraternities on the campus. This moveis the result of a suggestion profferedby coach A. A. Stagg of the Univer¬sity of Chicago.Students to participate in the“Cheering C” will be nominated bytheir respective fraternities and outof the entire group of men Score clubwill choose 220. It is planned to or¬ganize the “C” similar to the corre¬sponding, “I” of Illinois. In the Illi¬nois group it is regarded as an honorto belong to this body and seats inthis section are handed down person¬ally from year by year to new men.Ben Goble and Charles Cowan whohave charge of the plan, have issuedthe statement that all men in thischeering section will be made distinc¬tive from the rest by the wearing ofwhite caps and shawls and the use ofwhite megaphones to accentuate thecheers. This section will be led bythe Varsity cheer leaders in the yells.Curry Martin of Score club said, “Itis expected that the addition of the“Cheering C” will raise the studentmoral#* at the games 100 per cent.”THE DAILY MAROON, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 16, 1924Page TwoSaUy fflarnonThe Student Newspaper of theUniversity of ChicagoPublished mornings, except Sunday andMonday during the Autumn.

Dudley Emmerson.THURSDAY, OCTOBER 16IN EDITORIAL REVIEWThe November Circle is on thestands, the first of the third volume.. . . Not so long ago the editor ofthat publication received a letter fromthe business manager of the compushumorous maggazine. In it the letterwished the former a very successfulyear, at the same time expressing thehope thai in living up to his advertis¬ing slogan, the editor would not in¬fringe on the Phoenix’s field of en¬deavor.The business manager need notworry. The Circle has widened per¬ceptibly beyond its boast, so much sofhat it seems safe to say the new is¬sue is far more collegiate than thedevil. That is, if we are to judge bythe standard “collegiate” in its archaicsense, the same that the editor speaksof on page three. The differentiationmade between the two connotations ofthe adjective in question, indicatesthat the gentleman from the lower be¬yond must necessarily rule over thosenewer progeny of the word. And sowe believe that the gentleman re¬mains with his old friends.As to the actual content of the is¬sue. It is well chosen, well edited,well arranged. Harry Smith’s publicletter to Linn seems the best bit ofthe lot; in like fashion, the Jones’ ar¬ticle seems the most amusing, theCormack manuscript (much-heraldedfor its fearless treatment of the pres¬ent-day college fraternity), the mostlengthy. It’s a purely personal mat¬ter, that of likes and dislikes. Judgedby its ideal (so stated) the new Cir¬cle justifies itself: an intelligent (thestatement reads), entertaining, andeminently readable sheet. And in sobeing, it provides for the likes and dis¬likes of many people. That’s as itshould be.One wonders at all this racket. Whymention a letter which deals with amatter that was proviate, at least byintention, that one inquires. Weanswer, Certainly not to make pub¬lic a private matter. Nor to invitean impossible comparison between thetwo magazines. Nor yet to attemptthe creation of a vogue for the one orthe other. But merely to hazard anestimate of the new Circle’s girth.And even that ought to be left tounhurried perusal of a copy of themagazine.LEISURE’S LITTLE KNELLSocial service appeals to most of us,in theory. We like to vision ourselvespassing sacks of peanuts to little for¬eigners, or giving discarded clothes toimpoverished families. But we neverlike to get down to an honest after¬noon’s work with a group of the “un¬privileged.” Disposition of our timein that fashion seems wasteful, whenwe consider the many things on ourpotential calendars.The Y. has been making a concert¬ed drive in chapel this week, askingstudents to consider the need fortheir Assistance in citizenising groupsof children living in foreign homes. Wales Visit Sets New Recordon Campus Phone ExchangeA new record for calls handled atthe campus exchange was set Mondaywhen David Windsor visited the cam¬pus. “It was the busiest day in thehistory of the exchange,” said MissAnderson, chief operator at the Uni¬versity.The University telephone system isa complicated affair. Two hundredand seventy-nine phones are locatedthroughout the quadrangles. Twenty-two of these are trunk lines for bothincoming and outgoing calls, andeight are for outgoing calls only. Alllines are connected to the main switchhoard in the Press building, wherefour operators are on duty.Saturdays BusiestThe heaviest work is on Saturdays, when great numbers call the stadiumto secure tickets for the footballfames. This service alone has neces¬sitated the installation of two newtrunk lines.Miss Anderson says that complet¬ing calls for University people is verypleasant work, for as a rule they arevery polite. “We give the best serv¬ice we can, though it must be remem¬bered that with all the calls for ‘Mid¬way 0800’ coming in every minute wecannot always take care of people assoon as the receiver is lifted.“It’s just when Britain’s royaltyvisits that we have any difficulty,” sheconcluded. Classified AdsFurther request is made that the per¬sonal benefit to be gained from con¬tact with Settlement groups, be bal¬anced against the personal loss wefee! in decreasing contact with ourown groups. Broader experince willalways bring broader vision; andbroader vision, in turn, greater com¬prehension and greater enjoyment oflife.Ad infinitum. There are more argu¬ments for our participation in socialservice work than we can counter.The only thing to do is forego someuseless leisure and journej’ to the Set¬tlements.

Before last Sat¬urday, the game against Indiana as¬sumed the proportions of a mighty cru¬cial battle, due to the unwonted strengthwhich the dopesters thought they saw inIndiana, and partly/to the poor showingwhich Chicago has made. However, theonce-scorned Maroons, came to life, In¬diana failed to exhibit all thatprowess against Louisiana, and thefans began to scratch their heads. As aconsequence, the oft-maligned dope fa¬vors Chicago right now, although thelate occurrences have made the grid fol¬lowers somewhat less gullible.Punter Needed HereNevertheless, with the Maroons stillhunting a man with an educated toe,and with Indiana undoubtedly the best'.he has been in some time, it is certainthat a sturdy bit of warfare will takeplace Saturday. Indiana has last year'sline of sophomores intact, and has al¬ways been known as a team with fight,although there have been whole seriesof years when the Hoosiers entered al¬most any game with the idea firmly im¬planted in their humble minds that theywere to form practice dummies for theiradversaries.And the mediocre showing againstLouisiana cannot be taken to meantoo much. Although with the acclaimthat had been handed them up until thattime the Hoosiers should have defeatedtheir southern foes, it might be well toremember that the latter had had alxmtthree weeks longer to practice, as hadthe Missouri tigers a week previous. Thehuge score which the Indiarians piled upagainst Rose Poly and Vanderbilt ap¬parently did not mean much.Improvement to Go OnNor are the Staggmen acting proud oftheir late victory. They have forgottenall about that, and are settling down towork with their eyes pointed straightahead. If the improvement shown sofar continues to develop, they are al¬most certain to triumph over the In-gramites. On the other hand, if the Mid-wayers halt where they are now, dis¬aster is the only result to predict.Kernwein is being instructed in theart of taking care of himself. This in¬struction takes the form of reprimandsmore than a little. He is the type ofplayer who throws himself into the gamewithout giving heed to the possibilitiesof receiving an injury by so doingwhich might keep him from the gamefor the rest of the season.Maroons Tackle PoorlyThe whole Maroon eleven forgets,periodically, how to tackle. And thewings need development in defensivework. When the Browns charged at theline Saturday, they were halted withefficiency and dispatch. But when theya: tempted a run around end, their luckseemed to reverse. Hard drills are inorder, and the boys are getting them.Most of the stress is being placed onthe offense which proved so effectiveagainst Brown.The men who had to be taken fromthe game Saturday on account of moreor less serious injuries are all back andworking out as their conditions admit.The backfield from Indian* has agood reputation. And the line is heavierand sprver than the customary Hoosierfront men. Coach “Navy Bill” Ingram has always been a thorn in the side ofChicago, although he has not won fromthe Maroons yet, and with this improvedteam can lie counted upon to make thelocals hop. It is Ingram’s second yearwith Indiana, and the material he wasgiven last season consisted largely ofsophomores, without varsity experiencebehind them, accounting for his smallshowing. Nevertheless, he was able toget his men to register wins over North¬western and Purdue, losing to Chicagoand Wisconsin.Marks Faces MarksAn unusual circumstance will be pre¬sented when Wally Marks of Chicagofaces Larry Marks, the Indiana passing-ace. The two men are not related, andwhereas the Hoosier Marks is a juniorand one of the chief ground gainers forhis outfit, the Maroon man is but asophomore and as yet with his name tomake. Nevertheless, Wally has a goodshow’ of starting the coming battle atfullback.One thing in which the Indiana teamwill show improvement is in the matterof substitutes. Last year they lacked thefresh men with ability to send in nearthe end of the game when the regularswere beginning to weaken before therenewed Maroon attack. This SaturdayIndiana will have several good men toinsert when necessary.Curley in Bad FixIt is to be marked that Curely, whomade his first brilliant debut against In¬diana last year, will probably be unableto repeat, this year, on account of theinjury to his leg. The possibility isopen that he may get in, but his bestwedge into the game would be an im¬provement of his kicking ability. Lastyear he entered the game against theCrimson in the second half, when theinvaders had Stagg’s warriors wonder-ing. With his spirited assumption ofthe general’s duties he seemed to re¬vive the slacking Maroons.Word from Bloomington has it thatthe ptp-inspirers are getting in somehard work. The strongest efforts arebeing made to arouse the highest pitchof spirit for Saturday’s tussle. Presi¬dent Bryan, in addressing the studentbody concerning the game, quoted ex¬amples from history, designed to inducethe Crimson to the ultimate extensionof effort. Crippled by injuries, sickness, andeligibility difficulties, the Universitygymnasium team is finding itself withplenty of work on its hands if it isto attempt to duplicate the perform¬ance of last season’s conference charn-ions, according to Coach Hoffer.With Paisley on the sick list aftera severe case of typhoid, the squadloses one of the most brilliant tumb¬lers in the Big Ten. Although but asophomore last year, he was one ofthe most dependable and proficientmen on the long mats.Two seniors, about the best menleft, are the class of the squad thisyear. Their graduation next spring,Coach Hoffer pointed out, wouldleave vacancies which must be #fil'cdfrom the ranks of this year’s freshmen,in all probability. This means thatthe yearlings outfit must be augment¬ed this season. .Consequently Hoffer explained thatthere are plenty of openings for menwho feel that they either have sometalent for the work, or that they arewilling to work. The gymnasts inthe making are showing up well onthis fall’s squad so far. McEwen, asmall man with strength and\ability,is working out daily and shows a greatdeal of promise.Bids From Far AwaySeveral schools and athletic clubshave put in bids for gym meets, thefarthest away coming from the Uni¬versity ot Pennsylvania. Thes bidswill all be considered at the coaches’meeting in December, when Big Tenschedules in swimming, wrestling,gymnastics, and so on, will be drawnup. Following the GridSquad in PracticeStagg put his men through a ratherlong drill, last night, concentratingthe major portion of his effort onan attempt at developing a punter.The consistent mediocrity of Maroonhooting has nettled the “Old Man”Considerably, and he had six mentrying to connect with the oval.Harry Thomas, Felice Caruso, BillClark, Bill Macklind—the latter twonew men this season—Phil Barto,and Abbot, were the men put onthe toe work.Bert McKinley was worked at lefthalf, a change from the right half¬hack position, wlifjch he has beenfilling.Abbot did lal the quartering therewas to be done, a small encugliamount, since the short scrimmagetook the form of a practice offensewith the frosh standing up and tak¬ing it.Five men were out of practice forone reason or another. Curley’s legwill keep him out of the Indianagame. Barnes is on the sicklist,though nothing serious is expected.Francis did not appear. Marks wasabsent. And Kernwein, who receiveda hearty thump in the ribs in theBrowm game, has developed troublefrom this originally minor injury.Barta and Connelly were tried atBarnes’ end, neither of them dis¬playing anything sensational.

The Prince of Wales has left ourshores, but his influence on men’sclothes will stay with us for manymoons. What the heir to the Britishthrone wore while here was secondaryonly to what H. R. H. did. Staid andconservative newspapers printed col¬umns describing what Long Island’sroyal guest wore every minute of hisstay at Syosset. Thousands of pic¬tures were printed in as many news¬papers in every city of our land, giv¬ing definite pictorial information ofWales’ hats, suits, shoes, shirts andneckwear.The influence of the Prince ofWales as a leader of men’s fashionsis consistently recognized both in thiscountry and in England. But thePrince didn’t literally introduce newmen’s styles. What he did was toplace the stamp of his royal approvalon the present attire of well dressedAmericans. There are many thingswhich Americans admire in this lik¬able prince of the bood royal; for in¬stance, those of us who abhor cere¬mony cannot but admire the Princefor his wearing of a blue shirt andsoft collar to match when he calledupon the highest executive of theUnited States at Washington.For the man with an eye on thecurrent trend of fashion, there areseveral suit models of English origin,which will particularly suit his fancy.A few of the advanced models conveya perfectly straight unbroken line—astyle dedicated to the college dresser.The English mode retains its lead¬ership and the Fall models are pre¬sented in many new developments.The wide, straight trousers, bluntedvest, ventless coat and wider shoul¬ders are now firmly entrenched as themost corect vogue of the hour. Stripedgray, and blue double-breasted jacketsuits have been observed on all ave¬nues and boulevards where men ofgood sartorial appearance are expect¬ed to be seen.The Prince was seen in both blue,and gray pencil striped suits while so¬journing in Syosset. It is only nat¬ural that Fall and Winter will seemore double-breasted suds thanSpring and Summer.So far as overcoats are concerned,there are a wealth of fabrics, colorsand styles offered to men who wouldenvelop themselves -in warm but sty¬lish garments. One model which hasalready been seen in display windowsis tailored of a new weather-restistingfabric and is the result of several yearsof investigations in the field of proofedtextiles. The material is made andweather-proofed in Scotland of long-fiber Australian wool. The specialweaving process insures a securityfrom mists and showers. A rich,deep, softly woven face is supportedby a hard-finished worsted back. Itis an easy, straight-hanging Lairdgarment and provides for “year-round” service.The secret of a well dressed man iscolor harmony and becoming style.The selection of blending colors par¬ticularly in clothing and hats, is vitallyimportant. The thoroughly furnishedmen’s wardrobe should have at leastthree hats, one for business, anotherfor informal occasions and still an¬other for motoring and sports wear.The felt hat, in various shades ofbrown and gray, with or without theturned down brim in front, is, ofcourse, much in vogue at the presentwriting. The derby, naturally has itsplace for evening wear.Colored shirts and stiff and soft col¬lars to match are still being worn bythe men who aren’t afraid to affect abit of color. The latest thing in shirtsis a semi-stiff pleated bosom of solidcolor with cross pencil stripes of adeeper hue.Leading UniversitiesMeet in ConferenceTwenty-six leading universities willbe represented at the twenty-fifth annualconference of the Association of Ameri¬can Universities, one of the leading edu¬cational l>odies in the United States,which will be held at the Minnesotacampus, October 30, 31, and Nov. 1.Meetings will begin Thursday with aconference of deans and other officersin graduate schools.

It is a sweet thought,but what’s it to them?“Slank gives us the pep to crawlout of the academic ditch where we’rebeing herded by the guys who give usthe gate for an original paper and theeverlasting bouquet for “that which”we have lifted from some book. Ifit weren’t for slang, we could nevertalk about college. There w’ouid beno more co-eds in the coop throwingdirty looks at the shieks who put intheir time piping the flight; therewould be young women in the stu¬dent’s co-operative store bestowing in¬dignant glances at a group of ill-bredmen who rudely stare at them as theypass. How undignified the librarybum would be if expressed by pureEnglish: his flunk-out in recorderialterms would make him crash out insackcloth and ashes!Profs and exams would be beyondreach if not pruned to familiarity.How could we put anything over ata meeting without telling the dumbellswhere to head in before giving themour hunch? We could not communi¬cate with our colleagues, but we pos¬sibly might get the idea over with a few keen shots of slang.“In fact, how could we break thedomestic apron string and come here to swallow a culture if it were notfor the family hearing us sling un¬educated slang in our kid day?McAnany & FinniganPRESCRIPTION DRUGGISTSCor. 55th and Wood lawn Ave.Drugs, Cigars and Cigarettes; Perfumes, Toilet Articles and Parker,Waterman, and Conklin Pensthe Maroonis IndividualWHY SHOULDN’T YOU BE?HAVE YOUR OWNSUBSCRIPTIONWe’re Still Selling ThemElection of officers for the SocialService Club took place yesterday at thefirst meeting of the Year.

A gallery was starteda few years ago, recent additions towhich are now on display on the bul¬letin board in W-31.Statistics showing the relation be¬tween attractive book jackets and thesales of books are said to be of greatbenefit to publishers; for this reasonlibrary officials are trying to deter¬mine whether tastes in books arc di¬rected by color or by rs^ent.Michael Arlen’s “These CharmingPeople” has the most popular appealwith the gilt and black color schemeof its jacket, according to the libra¬rian.
