Nelson will givea dramatic reading of “Cyrano deBergerac,” tomorrow, at 7, in thenorth reception room of Ida Noyeshall. The reading will be givenunder the auspices of both the Wo¬men’s and Men’s Speakers clubs whowill hold a joint public meeting onthis occasion.“The Speakers clubs have devidedto make this an open meeting,” ac¬cording to Annette Pearse, presidentof the Women’s Speakers club, “be¬cause so many people have expressedtheir desire to hear Prof. Nelson,and because the play to be read is apopular one among college stu¬dents. The meetings of the Speak¬ers clubs are usually for membersonly but we feel that the occasionwarrants an open meeting.”“Cyrano de Bergerac,” a Frenchplay by Edmund Rostand, deals withthe adventures of an ugly hero, whois, however, romantic. Through hislove of beauty he gets himself intomahy complicated affairs and has toresort to both his long arm and hissword to get him out of them. Theplay contains innumerable speecheswhich lend themselves to study bothfrom the standpoint of dramatictechnique and from the standpointof poetry, according to Prof. Nelson. First Goal Hoists 'Thousand BalloonsOne thousand balloons will bereleased at the event of the firsttouchdown made by the Maroonteam in the game next Saturday,if the slogan announced by CharlesAnderson, co-chairman of theIdeas committee of SettlementNight, is followed. The balloonswill be sold for the benefit of Set¬tlement Night.The distribution of the balloonswill be in the hands of forty sales¬women, and it is expected that' every one will get a sufficient num¬ber of them, according to what heexpects the score to be. The pricewill be the same as before, fifteencents apiece. Any contribution,however, is accepted. The sales¬women will include delegationsfrom each woman’s club.ORATORS TO MEETFOR Y.M.

LIGHT BLAZE INSTAGG HELD IFBADGERS FALLCelebrate on Site of Triumph;Freshmen TossCaps InStarting with the lighting of amonster bonfire on Stagg field theevening after the championship gamewith Wisconsin, providing the scoreis favorable, the University will cele¬brate the most important even in itsathletic history since before the war.Preceding the fire there will be agrand snake dance on the field withevery enthusiast on the campus par¬ticipating However the plans of thecommittee in charge call for brief butexpressive ceremonies.Enlist Cavalry UnitA group of prominent seniors withBruce MacFarlane directing themhave secured the service of one ofthe University’s horses to make around of the neighborhood stores forcontributions of wood to insure an ap¬propriate spectacle. Mr. Flock, of theDepartment of Buildings and Groundshas lent the horse for the occasionwith the special proviso that the com¬mittee does not confiscate the wagonthat he also furnishes for kindlingwood. Many of the fraternities havealready collected huge piles of woodfrom their alleys and various otherplaces to be donated as part of thenecessary equipment.Cast Off GreeneryAnother feature of the celebrationwill be the discarding of green capsby the freshmen to augment the blaze.This marks the end of the periodduring which freshmen are requiredto wear the caps as emblems of theirapprenticeship, as it also marks thebeginning of a new era in the fresh¬man’s college career. It is pointedout as especially imperative that thefirst year men wear their caps at thegame and then the bonfire following.The band will lead the procession,constituting the snake dance. Andit is believed that there will be an ad¬ditional one following the final whis¬tle.Japan and SeattleFigure in TalkBy StarrFirst-hand account of the Japan¬ese earthquake of 1923 and its ac¬companying calamities was the sub¬ject of the lecture given yesterdayby Frederick Starr, professor emer¬itus of Anthropology in the Univer¬sity, who was in Tokio at the timeof the disaster. Prof. Starr saidthat he was accustomed to beingcalled “venerable” in Japan, but tobe called “emeritus” on his returnwas as distracting as having his dis¬cussion called a lecture. “For,”he said, “it is not a lecture that 1am giving, but a personal talk to myfriends at the University.”“Freddie” Starr had arrived inYokahama on August 12, and aftervisiting several places in which hehad special interest, had come to hishotel in Tokio the day before theearthquake. He remained nearTokio for fifteen days after theevent, and during that time wit¬nessed the reactions of a strickenpeople.He spoke of the kindness and thegratitude of the Japanese toward the(Continued on page 2)MAROON SALESWOMEN!Fifty women are wanted to sellthe special Chicago - Wisconsingame edition of The Daily Maroonon Saturday.

At the bottom of thechart space is left for a total of fivethousand dollars.A similar chart has been used inpast years and according to SewardCovert has always spurred the teamson to greater effort. “As a resultthe contributions colleced have beenmuch larger through the increasedenthusiasm,” Covert said.Blind Student IsHonor ManHereRecords in the Dean’s office yester¬day revealed the story of a studentwho has won for himself high scho¬lastic honors in spite of the incon¬venience of being deprived of hissight.Four years ago Joe PattersonSmith came to the University fromthe East, where he had studied to be [an accountant, but the loss of his eye¬sight while in the Marine Corps dis¬couraged all possibility of his everfollowing that profession. Thoughhis high school courses were incom¬plete, the University made specialarrangements to admit him, and now.after his undergraduate work hasbeen completed, the University hasawarded him complete high schoolcredit because of high scholarshipstanding and will graduate him atthe end of the quarter.“I don’t see why you should inter¬view me any more than any othersenior.” he told The Daily Maroon.“I don’t consider the lack of sight ahandicap. It’s merely a slight incon¬venience.“And that is compensated,” he con¬tinued, by the fact that I am able toconcentrate better than the averagestudent.”Smith is specializing in history,and after receiving his degree hewill take graduate history work as [preparation for teaching the subjectin some college.In June of last year, Mr. Smithwas married to Miss Alma MaryChurchill, who is also a student inthe University, and Mrs, Smith, uponher graduation in June, will work inthe graduate school with her hus¬band.While others are taking notes inclass, Smith listens carefully, andwhen he goes home at night he re¬cites the jist of the lectures to a dic-taphpne. At leisure moments hetranscribes the notes into “braille,” amethod of writing for blind peopledeveloped in the early part of the17th century.“I’m interested in the blind,” hecontinued, “but each man must solvehis own problems. I have worked outa system for myself £hat probablyworks as good for me as yours doestor you.’r And, indeed, Cne system(Continued on page 3) The amalgamation of the TowerPlayers and the Gargoyles into onebody, a more comprehensive and com¬plete whole than had heretofore beenpossible with either one, to be knownas the University of Chicago Dra¬matic association, has been achievedwith the announcement last night byMari Bachrach, president of the Gar-goyies, and Don Lockett Tower chief,of the final completion of plans forsuch a program and the sanction ofthe executive boards of the two or¬ganizations for the proposition.The new organization which maytake the place of Portfolio on ampus,was also invited to participate inthis consolidation, but at a meetingheld yesterday afternoon, no nactionwas taken. The consensus of opinion,however, seemed to favor such ac¬tion, according to Martha Leutsker,chairman of the Board of Women’sorganizations.Consider Women’s QuestionA committee appointed by theBoard of Student Organizations oconsider the advisability of forminga woman’s organization of this na¬ture was given the power to appointa secondary committee composed ofstudents to draw up a constitution ofthe new organization.Questioned as to the reason for theconsolidation, Archie Trebow, vice-president of Tower Players, and sec¬retary of Gargoyles, said that it grewout of the realization by Mr. FrankO’Hara, director of undergraduateactivities, of the need for a clearinghouse on campus for ideas and effortof those who have a comon interestin dramatics.‘Marks Turning Point”“This consolidation,” said Trebow,“‘marks a turning point in the prog¬ress or dramatics here.

For this reason webelieve that it is only just and fairto the classes to have their represent¬ative head introduced to them in theirassembly and to hear a few words onhis policies for the year.” Fosti r H. Kreis, vice-counsul ofthe Un ted States to China, was theguest ol Phi Gamtna Delta last night.Kreis has just returned from Shang¬hai where he has been in residencefor the past seven years. As vice-consul, Mr. Kreis came in daily con¬tact with scores of Chinese in everystation of life and consequently hasan intimate knowledge of many ofthe unique customs.“There are approximately 7.000British subjects in Shanghai andabout .1,700 Americans composing themajority of the foreign population inthis ancient city,” Mr. Kreis said inan interview with a Daily Maroonreporter. “Of the American popula-ion about fifty per cent are religious,educational or medical missionaries.The rest are engaged in Standard Oilwork or interested in importing andexporting.”When asked how the great mass ofpeople could live in such congestionwithout contracting disease he saidthat four out of every five Chinesechildren died before the age of fiveyears and that if they survived untilthe age of eight they were sentencedto work from twelve to fourteen hoursdaily and in this way they acquireda remarkable immunity from disease.Next to the Hirtdus the Chinese arethe dirtiest people in existence, livingin mere hovels.Some of the quaint customs as ex¬plained by Mr. Kreis are as follows:The penalty for carrying a gun inthe streets of Shanghai is death. Thevictim is carried through the publicstreets in a box for the benefit ofthe populace and he is then taken tothe yard of execution where he isshot without further notice.Several ingenious Chinese have re¬turned to their native homes and in¬troduced the famous dishes of ChopSuey and Chow Mein and literallymade a fortune. The dishes arestrictly American.The masses are much enthused overtheatres. The Chinese theatre, un¬like the American, is five stories highand for twenty cents, Chinese money,five different performances may bewitnessed in one evening. There arealso many amusement parks similarto White City. The elders frequentlyplay Mah Jongg and the children playhop-scotch in the streets.The richer classes delight in lim¬ousines because of the huge expensefor repainting. Unlike the Americancar owner the Chinaman paints hiscar a bright red, purple or yellow,he has multi-colored curtains through¬out and some of the most wealthyhave glass doors from top to bottom.A car is never driven in Shanghai un¬less it has at least two more occu¬pants than it will conveniently hold.Chinese funerals are not completeunless there is a huge procession withat least three bands. Mr. Kreis saidthat the favorite pieces played in thefuneral procession were “Over There”and "Columbia, the Gem of theOcean.” As is the oriental customthe mourners wear white.Classified AdsFOR RENT—In home of gradu¬ate student, a room, large, welllighted (4 windows, 5 light fixtures)intelligently arranged for comfortand convenience in study.

PRESBYTERIAN CLUBJAPAN AND SEATTLE FIGUREIN TALK BY STARR(Continued from page 1)Americans who were aiding them.He told of the hundreds who wentthrough the streets after the calam¬ity, calling out their names and for¬mer addresses, in the vain hope ofmaking some of their friends hearand aid them. He described thewa., in which the fire swept the city,the tremendous heat it caused, andthe distraction that followed in itswake. He told of the heaps of deadbodies waiting to be identified be¬fore being burned.Prof. Starr was a professor herefrom the first day that classesstarted in 1892 until his departureJune, 1923, and this has been hisfirst visit to the University sincethat time. He now has a Mexicanbungalow in Seattle where he keepshis books, and while he is not travel¬ing lives there with his Japaneseservant.The walls of the house are madeentirely of wooden wainscoting, and,according to Prof. Starr, each pieceof wood was selected for its design.He says that his sister considers thathe has no appreciation of art be¬cause he will not hang pictures overhis wainscoted walls, but he insiststhat it is his appreciation of art thatprevents him from doing so.OFFICIAL NOTICESDr. Samuel Dushkin, head of UnitedCharities, will spea at the meetingof Haskalah, the campus club for Jew¬ish students, today at 4 in the theatreof 'Ida Noyes hall.“II Circulo Italiano” will meet to¬day at 4:30 in the north receptionroom of Ida Noyes hall.

This isthe problem the dopesters are endeav¬oring to solve, very man on the Chi¬cago team from the giant Goodmanto the diminutive Curley declare em¬phatically that the Badgers are goingto lose next Saturday.

One example citedwas the devising of a calendar forthe year, and the consequent absenceof the usual conflict and mal-propor-tion.Towermen See PossibilitiesTower Players, a year-old organi¬zation, have deemed it advisable toassociate with the Gargoyles as ameans of achieving the best for eachorganization, according to Mr.O’Hara . In an interview last nighthe said, “The Tower Players havejoined the Dramatic association be¬cause they find that organizationswith similar interests work best to¬gether. While the clubs will retaintheir individuality, they will find acommon denominator in the associa¬tion. entrance to which is open to allstudents.Facilities for drama study andstaging will be available for bothorganizations, as well as for othersinterested in dramatic experimentand production. Such concentrationshould be decidedly a step forward indramatic activities on the campus,just as the establishing of a centralboard of dramatic and musical or¬ganizations was a forwrd stride.This central board, under the chair¬manship of Don Irwin, Abot ofBlackfriars, and a Tower Player, il¬lustrates the value of co-ordination.All dramatic organizations are nat¬urally. friendly to all others: thepresent plan merely gives the friend¬liness a new practicability.”Send Three to BoardThe new organization will be gov¬erned by a joint board, composed ofthree representatives from each ofthe separate hoards of the partici¬ pating groups.For membership to this board, Gar¬goyles have chosen Mari Bachrachpresident; Margaret Joseph, vice-president, and James Parker, busi¬ness manager. Tower Players haveappointed as their board members.Don Lockett, their president; GeorgeDowning, vice-president, and ArchieTrebow secretary.A joint treasurer of the associa¬tion is to be elected by the entiremembership of the body and as a re¬sult of such election, will automati¬cally become a member of both units’executive boards. Therefore, thetreasurer will be the seventh memberof an existing six-person board.Meet MonthlyThe Dramatic association, as such,will meet once a month and at alter¬nate meetings the Tower Plgayersand Gargoyles will provide suitableentertainment.The formation of the associationwill not interfere with the integrityof the individual units therein. Whena public production is announced, theassociation will present the TowerPlayers or the Gargoyles, as the casemay be. The concentration of forceswhere most needed is designed to ben¬efit and not hinder the member or¬ganizations. At the same time an in¬timate contact is to be afforded whichthe leaders hope will be beneficial.Illustrating the close-knit characterof the association, Trebow pointedout that two members of the boardof Tower Players are already Gar¬goyles, while two Tower Players siton the executive board of Gargoyles.Plan Meeting SoonThe joint board will meet soon, ac¬cording to Mr. O’Hara, and proceedwith the regular business of the as¬sociation. The entire association willconvene early next week and select ajoint treasurer.The major productions of the as¬sociation will be presented in Mandelhall. The more intimate bills will bestaged in the Reynolds club theaterby the Gargoyles and the TowerPlayers, and by the two groups work¬ing together. BLINK STUDENT ISHONOR MAN HERE(Continued from page 1)must be good, for Smith is an honorstudent in History and Geography.Early in the late war. he enlistedin the Marine corps and was sent toFance, where he saw active service.In 1919 he retuned to the UnitedStates.When natives of Haiti arose in re¬volt his division was ordered to quellthe rebellion. It was while engagingwith some bandits at Port au Princethat he was struck in the face witha bullet fired by one of the bandits.It resulted immediately in the loss ofsight in both eyes.Plans to become an accountantwere shattered, and Smith decided tostudy history. The University ofChicago was his choice, and in 1921he entered the school of Arts andLiterature.“I was very fortunate when young,”Smith related, “for, before I was oldenough to attend school, I traveledwith my parents in all parts of theworld; Australia being about the onlyplace that we didn’t visit^’Real Syncopation“Husk” O’HarePhone Harrison 0103Take This PenTo Class!And Miss No Lecture NotesIts Over-3tze Barrel HoldsEnough Ink to LastIts Balanced, Hand-Size GripStimulates WritingNO one can laugh off the factthat Parker Duofold Is the big¬gest selling pen in the world todaynotwithstanding that its price ishigher than scores of others.Ita unrivaled popularity arisesfrom the fact that this Classic isworth several times $7 to ore’s ca¬reer in life.

The most pessimistic re¬ports give Chicago a strong bid forthe title.Among the men from last year isCaptain Yactor, who is an all-aroundman and whom Coach Hoffer expectsto rate eastern as well as western all-around champ. Others are McDan¬iels, Behrendt, Paisley, Marsh, O’Con¬nor, Quinn and Nelson, all depend¬able in their specialties.Six freshmen are now out daily forthe yearling squad. More are ex¬pected to come out after footballseason ends.There is a chance that the gymteam will go to Annapolis this com¬ing March for a dual meet with theNavy gymnasts. If the offer is ac¬cepted the Maroon squad will leavea few days before the dual meet dateand enter the Eastern 'IntercollegiateGymnastic Conference meet. In thiscase, Chicago will represent the westand demonstrate the skill of westerngym teams.Chicago has a wonderful record ingymnastic ability. It has won sixtitles since 1917. In addition, theMaroon representatives have not fall¬en below second position since 1912.Shy Men SavedBy Date Bureau“Hello, hello, is this the datebureau? Please get me a date witha tall blond for Saturday night."Strange? Indeed! But it is prov¬ing convenient for the men at IowaState University, where two girlshave organized a “date" bureau tocajer to bashful college Romeos.These enterprising girls werestruck with the idea and impressedwith the desirability of such a serv¬ice department when several of theco-eds living in the college dormi¬tories complained that they werenot being given the chance to meetcampus men. and accompany themto school and fraternity functions.They advertised in the Iowa StateStudent, the college newspaper,suggesting tiiat the young men cal’the bureau for arrangements as todesirable dates.The office has a tabulated list de¬scribing the tastes, ages and phy¬sical qualities of their patrons. Organize AdditionalClass in EquitationDue to the unexpected popularityof the equitation classes, which arebeing sponsored by W. A. A., it ha^been found necessary to add anotherclass, which is to meet Wednesdaymornings from 7:30 to 8:30, accord¬ing to Eleanor Fish, recording sec¬retary of the organization. In spiteof the fact that these classes cannothe substituted for the regular workin the physical culture department,the twelve original sections weresoon filled to capacity, and therehas been an increasing demand foran exti’a class,Classes meet at the Midwray Rid¬ing Academy at 6037 Drexel Ave.Instructors have been provided forthose who wish them, and the chargeof seventy-five cents an hour pre¬vails for all classes. There are afew vacancies in the classes, as someof the regular women have droppedout on account of the cold weather.Classes will meet all winter.“Women wishing to sign upshould do so immediately,” saidEleanor Fish, who will be at the W.A. A. desk in the foyer of Ida Noyeshall from 12 to 2 on Mondays.MISSOURI ESCORTSIn the future, co-eds of the Uni¬versity of Missouri will have tocheer for their teams alone. Thestudents council and the director ofathletics have both asked all stu¬dents that they refrain from takinga date to a football game.The director of athletics statedthat, “A football game is not a so¬cial eyent, and that a fighting spiritat the games can best be effectedwli^ there are no dates and bothmen and women are free to give allpossible aid to the team and thespirit of the institution.”Other universities are not fallingin with this plan, so for the presentat least, the University of Missouri^is unique in one respect.MEADVILLE HOUSE TEA HELDTWICE MONTHLYMrs. Henriette Whitmore acts ashostess at the social teas which aregiven twice a month at Meadvillehouse for all University men and wo¬men.

STIEGUTZ DISCLOSESSECRET CAUSEOF COLORThe secret of the cause of color andwrhy dyes dye is to be found, accordingto Prof. Julius Stieglitz, chairman ofthe Department of Chemistry at theUniversity, in the dance of two teth¬ered electrons attached to a carbonatom. This original theory was ex¬plained and illustrated at the recentFranklin Institute Centenary in Phil¬adelphia. The table of tbp lectureroom was set with a series of wineglasses. In one of them Prof. Stieg¬litz dissolved a white powder and byadding to the solution liquids equallycqlorless the contents of the glasschanged successively to yellow, to red.to brown, and to black while the lan¬tern projected on the screen the car¬bon chains and rings of the structuralsymbols of the dyes produced.What he was doing, it appeared,was loosening up a pair of electronsbelonging to one of the carbon atomsso that they could vibrate in tune withthe light ^-aves received by the sub¬stance. By giving the electrons a lit¬tle greater freedom of movement theywere able finally to respond to all thewave-lengths and so to absorb all thelight, leaving the liquid black andopaque, or the color that we attributeto an object, as was explained by Dr.Stiqglitz, is not the color that itcatches out of the light and holds butthe color that it rejects and returns toour eyes.According to the Stieglitz theory asgiven in Science, all dyes and pigmentsare so constructed as to have a posi¬tive atom which is short of electronsclosely adjacent to a negative atomWhen you write homefor money, useSANFORD’SFountain Pen InkBuy It AtWoodworth’s Book StoreHz nli.lluJllIiniuilalliilllillililliiffi. miMiiiiinimiiiiiiiiiiiiuiiiiiiiiiiiuiimimiimi>iiniiimiiiiuHHinmHHHHHHHHiiwiuiiinmnm>HHHMmiimnnmmdJlTetomoobqpoodlawn Avenueat Sixty fourth StreetCHICAGOJUST COMPLETED *^8553^ INSPECTION INVITEDMMany Advantages for StudentsOR many, many reasons, theWedgewood offers exceptionaladvantages to those who seek thebest!
