After going to classtwo weeks he found that the workwas quite easy for him. “I’m get¬ting good,” said Joe to himself.“This is the most logical course Iever took. Everything seems to bejust as it should, and l hardly haveto study.”But yesterday Joe took a fall,when the prof, threw' an exam. Itwas the same one that Joe tooklast Winter quarter.“Good grief,” he told the Dean,“it’s the same course I passed lastyear. Gould you sign me up foranother?”FRESHMAN TESTLEADERS NAMEDTo Make Comparison WithOther CollegesTwelve students were ranked as theleaders in the recent freshmanpsychological test given by Prof. L.L. Thurstone of the Psychology de¬partment to the first year class mem¬bers. These leaders are: Archie Blake,Leon Despres, Ruth Eldorf, DonaldKelso, Elizabeth Linn. Richard Lunn,Lillian Mason, Marion Richeson, PaulThiele, Henry Webster, Eleanor Wil¬kins.The tests were given on nine differ¬ent subjects, covering almost the en¬tire field of ordinary intelligence, ac¬cording to Prof. Thurstone. Theexact questions cannot be released, asthey are to be used again, but briefly,they cover the subjects of reading,proverbs, opposites, completion, artifi¬cial language, reasoning, arithmeticand estimating.Comparative Grades UsedA complicated system of gradingwas used, whereby the studentswere rated on a comparative ba¬sis, but as there w'ere no definiteanswers to the various questions, nofixed grades could be designated. Inseveral instances, among the twelveleaders, and among the class as awhole, one certain question proved astopper to the majority of students,although the others might be an¬swered nearly perfectly.“When a majority of students felldown on the same test we did nottake it to mean that they were un¬usually poor in the subject, but ratherconsidered it the fault of the test,"said Prof. Thurstone.Are Tests Indicative?Answering the question as towhether these tests were an actualtest of intelligence, Prof. Thurstonestated that the only method of ascr-taining this would be a complete com- jparison of actual scholastic grades •with the results of the psychologytests. “This, however, would takeconsiderable time and trouble,” saidthe Professor.Abbe Dimnet TalksAt University TodayAbbe Ernest Dimnet will return tothe University for a second lecture to¬night at 8:15 in Leon Mandel assem¬bly hall. He will speak this time onthe Moody Lectureship and has se¬lected for a subject one that is ofpresent-day interest in the field of lit¬erature, “What Is Left of AnatoleFrance?” No tickets will be required.The Abbe is a Canon of CambraiCathedral, was a Lowell lecturer inBoston in 1919 and 1920, spokesmanfor France at the Williamstown In¬stitute of Politics in 1923, and is oneof the leading French contributors toEnglish literature.As a historian of English literaturethe Abbe is known especially for avolume in French on the Bronte sis¬ters and frequent contributions to anumber of leading magazines.

Tickets for the Sunday lectureare being distributed at PresidentBurton’s office.“Dr. Fosdick has conducted theUniversity religious services at theUniversity about once each year forseveral years, but although the Chris¬tian associations have been trying toengage him for a series of lectures forthe past year, it was not until the■present time that he has consented tospeak under our auspices,” said Mr.Gerald Karr Smith, executive secre¬tary of the University branch of theY. M. C. A.Aroused CongregationAs a Baptist minister in a Presby¬terian church in New York, Dr. Fos¬dick aroused his congregation andwas asked to resign because of hisradical doctrine.In the field of literature he has con¬tributed several volumes, among whichare the “Meaning of Pray,” “Mean¬ing of Faith,” and “Meaning of Serv¬ice.”As a speaker he has been equallysuccessful, with people crowding thebuildings in which he spoke. “1 herehave always been twice as many out¬side trying to get in as there werealready within listening to the speak¬er,” said*Mr. Smith, “so I would ad¬vise students to come for ticketssoon.”NORTHWESTERN CHAMPS?Northwestern looks like a repeaterfor the Big Ten and National Inter¬collegiate Swimming titles.

The trampled hockey field behindIda Noyes hall will be transformedinto a glistening, inviting sheet of icefor the moonlight Ice Carnival whichwill be staged with all the grandeur.of the famous northern festivals byW. A. A. Friday from 7 to 9.Although the affair is being spon¬sored by W. A. A., all University stu¬dents are invited to come and skate.At 7 the band, which has been en¬gaged to brave the chilly atmosphereand play throughout the two hours,will strike the first notes of “Wavethe Flag of Old Chicago.” If therhythmic contagion spreads too rap¬idly and feet minus the skates beginto move hesitatingly across the ice,the students thus affected may use thefoyer of Ida Noyes hall, which willbe open for dancing during the car¬nival.An enormous bonfire which will il¬lumine the entire expanse of ice, willbe kindled before the students beginto arrive. Hot dogs which are yearn¬ing to fill the crispy buns will be dis¬tributed among those who gatheraround the fire for the admission tick¬et of 25 cents. Hot coffee and Her-sliey bars will also be sold. Theradiating heat of the blaze will servethe students as they group around itto watch the specialties which will beperformed during the evening.John Sprohnle, a former student ofthe University, will twirl some eights,write his name on the ice and pro¬vide other more unusual feats of skill,according to Elizabeth Barrett, presi¬dent of W. A. A. Claude Brignol willparticipate in the only speed race oithe evening. Other students of theUniversity will compete with him inthe race.'"According to Elizabeth Barrett, thepresidents of the four classes havepromised to co-operate in urging themembers of each class to help makethe Ice Carnival a success. “The Car¬nival is an experiment with the W. A.A.,” said Martha Leutsker, “and weare anxious that it may be a successand that the students will become in¬terested in this tyre of social event.”Indians Used Paintfor ProtectionSays SiouxWhy do Iindians paint their faces?Well, why do women paint theirs, an¬swers Mr. Philip Frazier, full-bloodedSioux Indian, who dressed up in hiswar regalia and furnished the enter¬tainment Sunday afternoon at the Y.|M. C. A. smoker at the Phi DeltaTheta house.The Indian’s custom of smearinghis face with highly colored pigmentswas for a definite reason—to protecthis face against the sun, rain andwind. People use cold cream now¬adays instead, said Frazier. Paint hadanother use as well, he explained.That was to camouflage while hunt¬ing. Yellow was used when the Red¬man was on the war path; black whensomeone died, and red when he wasextremely happy.Fully DecoratedFrazier wore all the beads, feathersand trimmings of a full fledged Sioux,while his wife, who accompanied himat the piano while he sang some char¬acteristic songs, wore the dress of theSac and Fox tribe.“Are the strands of hair attachedto your dress from humans?” asked apaid-up member of the “Y.”“No. These happen to be horsehair,but a little further back in Indian his¬tory they would have been humanscalps. Scalping, at first.” he con¬tinued, was not such a terrible prac¬tice. They w’ere merely secured assouvenirs. An .Indian would simplyslip up behind an enemy, grasp ahandful of hair, and zip—!

The “Undergraduate” is notdesired, and she is often the “fairbutt of much crude humor. ’American women are far morepopular than English, partly be¬cause the Oxford man has thepleasing notion that all Americansare millionaires.

As captain ofthe track team and a leader of theprom it became necessary to decide inwhich event he would participate.Everything considered , MacFarlanethought in justice to the “Old Man”and the University the track meet wasthe only choice. And as a result itwill be necessary to select a new promleader to succeed MacFarlane.Whether the new leader will be se¬lected by the Undergraduate council oiby MacFarlane has not been decided.It is probable that the retiring promleader will select his successor byproxy.“There will be nothing for my suc¬cessor to do except actually lead theprom because I intend to do all ofthe necessary work beforehand,” Mac¬Farlane said.“There is a possibility that I mayyet lead the prom, but the possibilityis very, very small. 1 sincerely regretgiving up this honorary position, butmy evening would be spoiled if Iheard of the defeat of Chicago at Pur¬due’s hand the evening of the prom.Although there is a possibility of ourdefeat, I want to be present with tneteam, win or lose,” he continued.BRING SUBSCRIPTION CARDSAll subscribers to The Daily Ma¬roon are requested to bring theircards with them each day.

GREEKS TO GETGRADE REPORTSIN MID-QUARTERInstructors Will Issue ReportCards GivingStandingEndeavoring to formulate a consis¬tent policy to enable the fraternitieson campus to maintain a closer watenof their scholastic standings. Dean Er¬nest Hatch Wilkins has started a planof co-operation between the instruc¬tors and the men whereby each in¬structor will report the standing tothe office of the Dean, enabling him toment of the grade standing of eachgive each fraternity a periodical state-man.The plan is to be carried outthrough report cards issued from theoffice of the Dean, and sent to eachfraternity at the beginning of eachquarter. These cards will be sent bythe councillor of the fraternity to theDean’s office, where they will be for¬warded to each man’s instructor in allcourses. The instructor will then give^the approximate grade of the man inthe course up-to-date. These cardswill then be returned to the Dean’soffice, where they will be tabulated, areport sent to each fraternity, and areport made to the individuals.Dean’s StatementThe statement from the office of theDean follows:“To the President and FacultyCounsellors, of the Fraternities:Through a combined action of the ln-terfraternity Council and the Frater¬nity Counsellors, agreement has beenreached as to the standardized methodof scholarship reports for all fraterni¬ties. Is is believed this will greatlyincrease the number of reports onclass standing which are returned tofraternity men, and it is hoped thatthis will operate as a factor in improv¬ing fraternity scholarship.”Regarding the standing of reportcards to the various instructors, thestatement runs: “It is then the dutyof each Fraternity Counsellor to re¬turn to the Dean’s office before thtend of the fourth week of the qrirtera complete set of cards for the menof his own fraternity, upon which tnefollowing items have been filled outcompletely and plainly: name of in-(Continued on page 2)JUNIORS HOLD MIXER;POSTPONE PARTYAT THEATREThe Executive council of the Ju¬nior class will meet today at 3:30in Classics 13.Members of the Junior class will goon a theater party Feb. 6 instead ofJan. 23. as was first planned.The mixer will take place either inthe Reynolds club or in Ida Noyeshall.

It will con¬tinue probably for the rest of the col¬lege year.The material from which the ques¬tions and answers have been framedis quite authentic, and will be re¬ferred to in the column itself. Refer¬ences to sports of all kinds in theearly days of the University will bemade in season—that is, at the timewhen each sport is in the center otstudent interest.The chief object of the column, ofcourse, aside from whatever amuse¬ment it may afford—for it will not beany more serious than seems neces¬sary—is to stimulate an active interestin the traditions of our University byshowing exactly whence those tradi¬tions arose in the first place, and whatthey mean, or should mean, to us.Items on all phases of college life willbe included, so that every type of stu¬dent will find something in it that in¬terests him directly.Contributions will be welcomed atall times. Anyone who knows some¬thing about the early days of the Uni¬versity which he feels would be suita¬ble for “By the Way” is urged to sendit in. Also, if anyone would like in¬formation on some feature of campuslife “way back when,” he is invitedto mail his request to “Wayfarer,”and will be answered if possible.Snapshots of the bygone days are alsowelcome; from time to time somephotographs will be included in themakeup of the column.GREEKS TO GET GRADEREPORTS IN MID-QUARTER(Continued from page 1)structor, title of course, name of stu¬dent, name of fraternity.”Aid to Co-operationDean Wilkins feels that by thismethod the instructors will be encour¬aged to take the time to make outthese extra reports, as they will comein all at the same time, and system¬atically sorted, so as to encourage aspirit of co-operation between the in¬structor and the men. It is requestedthat no fraternity employ any sys¬tem of scholarship reports other thanthe one recommended by the Dean, asthis would be not only unnecessarybut confusing.Charles Allen is head of the Inter¬fraternity council committee whichworked on the plan.OFFICIAL NOTICEMembers of Y.

J. Rosser Venable, now a studentat the University, who was captureuthree times in six hours while servingin the front line trenches on the Con-sevoy front during the late war, wasone of the three hundred students whoreceived the La Verne Noyes scholai-ship for ex-service men. Mr. Venableis from Camden. Ark.His amazing experience in the front¬line trenches during the late war weremade known while applying for thescholarship. It seems that it was onlyeleven days after donning uniformthat Mr. Venable was detailed to act¬ive service in the front lines. He wasa member of the famous 33rd Divi¬sion, but was assigned to a Britishunit only ten days after landing inFrance and 71 days after lie had en¬listed. He remained with the Britishunit for 102 days in the front-linetrenches.Speaking of his adventure on thefiring lines, Mr. Venable says: “ThoseG. I. cans Jerry sent over sure didplay havoc in the territory where 1landed. I was in a trench with aTommy one dayr when one fell about70 feet away. When a G. I. can hitsit almost knocks the bottom out ota trench. We heard it coming andTommy yelled: ‘Where are ya Van?’He was doing an Alphonse-Gaston actto let me in the dugout first, but 1was wise and when I leaped for theopening Tommy couldn’t get in forme.” (A G. I. can is a German nine-point two shell.) “You’ve got to handit to those Britishers,” Mr. Venablecontinued, “they’re always happy.”Relates CaptureMr. Venable finally related his cap¬ture adventure. It seems that he waswounded in the right hand whilefighting near Consevoy France andwas captured by the Germans at 8:15a. m. The Americans regained thetrench and recaptured the prisoners,but the Germans came back and re¬took Venable again. This happenedsix times in succession within sixhours and finally Venable was rescued by his comrades with the aid of the132nd American Infantry. Because othis wound he was taken to a basehospital and soon sent back to theUnited States. He was sent to theCamp Pike hospital near his hometown.“I want to pay the highest compli¬ment and the deepest feeling languagecould impart to the American dough¬boy and the American nurse, the realbackbone of victory,” Mr. Venablesaid. “A man could tell for hours hisexperiences and yet half would nothave been told.”The La Verne Noyes scholarship isopen to ex-service men of the Ameri¬can Army or Navy and their blood re¬lations. It is only part of a series ofsuch scholarships started by Mr.Noyes for the benefit of ex-servicemen in most of the American collegesand universities.CO-EDS OF COLORADOSEEK TO FATHOMFEMININITYOut in the wild, wild West,“ where men are men,” and womenare — well, that is what the womenof the University of Colorado aretrying to find out by discussing themanners and morals of the collegeco-ed.

This, in view of our mod¬ern enlightenment, is a sad travestyon the name of education.”WITH firmness and love of rightwe set ourselves once more to thetask of bringing the wrong to light.Prof. Barrows, we are told, in speak¬ing of the comparative merits of twowater barriers, was heard to say: “Yes,the first is a damn sight better.” Thathe blushingly avowed that he meant—“The first is a better site for a dam,”docs not alter the situation, for theyoung and embryonic minds of stu¬dents are quick to receive impressionsand the damage had already beendone.In Which a Grave Matter Is SettledDear All-in:1 have it from a r 'iab’e source thatfrom the looks of Jo** Pondelik’s roomhe must be able to get a girl’s picturein one letter.No-Z.Superiority*A lone figure,Disheveled hair—baggy-kneed,Writing furiously toFinish his assignmentsBefore reporting toHis cafeteria job.Across the table,Collegiately debonair—self-satisfied.Carelessly glancing thruHis despised books."Look, fellows,” he points derisively.“Pipe the yokel!”—Terrible Turk.A New ActivityWith the dark cloud of the Frosh-Soph prom, and still more direful, thatof the Washington Prom, hangingover us, we hasten to announce theformation of the Fraternity Pin In¬surance Co., which for a nominal sumwill protect your pins against the dep-radations of predatory females.Those in charge insist that men tak¬ing Quadranglers must pay additionalpremiums.Chi Psis are informed that pay¬ments will not be made on the size ofthe badge.The company must have precise an¬swers to these questions:Have you a guard for your pin?Will you use your own car or a cab?Do you drive?Do you drink intoxicating liquors?“Culver disclaims fraternity crook.”This honest denial of a national heromust be looked upon as the ultimatesacrifice in the interests of truth.ALL IN.D-A-N-C-ELUCIA HENDERSHOTThe steps of the One-Step FoxTrot and Waltz can be acquiredin a series of four private lessons.1367 E. 57th St.Bet.

The Maroons, jdespite their defeat, displayed great ipotential ability; and if Alyea be¬comes eligible within a few weeks, ithe Maroons may yet land among |the leaders.Illinois last year lost four of itsfirst six games and then came back ito win six straight and a tie forthe Conference title. The Maroonquintet may duplicate this feat.Meanwhile the Maroons have set¬tled down to perfect an offenseagainst the Hoosiers. Indiana alsohas lost two games, so that the tiltat Bloomington on Saturday will be ja battle to keep out of the Confer- jence cellar.Coach Dean’s Indiana squad has jalso been late in getting started.Both Chicago and the Indianans mayreach their peak by Saturday. Onpast performances, neither team hasthe advantage; and a close battle isexpected.In Logan and Krueger, Dean hastwo reliable forwards, who rankwith the best. Capt. Parker, thetallest player in the Big Ten. stand¬ing six feet six inches in his stock¬ings, is sure of the jump. Thestocky Lorber and Alward are two!veteran guards. Thus the Crimson |intends to hand the Maroons anothertrimming.Fortunately, the Maroons have al¬ways been able to solve the Indianastyle of play. This year with Weissand Barta ready to stop the slim |Hoosier forwards, Chicago should re- |peat its victory of last year. A vic¬tory for the Maroons will restore the;confidence of the players and placethe Midway again in a position fora Big Ten title.

I STUDENTS WHO FLUNKDECLARE CUPIDCULPABLEHow numerous are the things forwhich love is blamed! Dan Cupidseems to be the cause of everythingl’rom wearing your coat wrong sideout to murdering your heart’s desire.The latest plaint brought against himis that his arrows too often lodge inone heart only, and that heart mustthen grieve and pine, and so causethe owner to flunk out of college.At a recent meeting of the Boardof Readmissions in the University ofColorado, m*ny and extremely variedwere the types of excuses given.No University Night this weekMidway Masonic Temple. By far the most pathetic of thesewas unrequited love, according tothe “Silver and Gold.” Other ex¬cuses almost as regrettable wereprofered, such as that brotherly caretor the scholastic standing of thefreshman members of their fratern¬ities caused “the brothers” to ne¬glect their own studies and so flunkout. Those applying for readmissionclaimed that the existing systemprevented study; or that the neces- |sity of returning home so often dur- jing the quarter took up too muchtime; or that an overabundance ofsocial activities undermined the energy necessary for study; or thatthe prep schools did not afford ade¬quate foundation for college work.The Board regretted the presenta¬tion of so many flimsy excuses, as itmade it more difficult to admitstudents with legitimate reasons.The student’s own good was the ob¬ject in view when readmittance wasdenied. The majority of these mensucceed when given a second chance,according to Mr. Francis Wolle,member of the Board.No Wednesday Night Dance thisweek.SPECIAL, RATESMONDAY AND WEDNESDAYShampooing MrWaving MrTHE JONES BEAUTYSHOPPE1373 E. 55th St.Hyde Park 341CLASSIFIED ADS Write Your Name withSANFORD’S INKIt Will Last ForeverFOR SAI.F.—An evening tiressuit, size 38: $15.
