' & *[. __University Band Strikes — Demands UniformsSIMPLE CEREMONYAS MASON TAKESUNIVERSITY HELMOldest Campus BuildingScene of KeyPresentationDr Max Mason became Presidentof the University today. In a simpleceremony on the steps of Cobh hall.President Emeritus Harry Pratt Jud-son presented Dr. Mason with the“key to the University.” Later Presi¬dent Mason addressed the annual com¬memorative chapel service.Several hundred students and fac¬ulty members assembled in front ofthe oldest class building on the cam¬pus to meet their new president.Thomas W. Goodspeed, first secretaryof the board of trustees, told of theopening of the University 33 years agotoday, when President William RaineyHarper unlocked the door of Cobbhall, the only building on the campusat that time where classes were held.Key Presented“We will stand by you and supportyou,” said Dr. Judson as he presentedthe symbolic key to the new presi¬dent. “The faculty and students areat your command.”And then in a few brief sentencesPresident Max Mason responded.“When a member of the factulty atWisconsin I heard of the great attain¬ments of this institution. It is mar¬velous what this University has ac¬complished.“The policies of the University havebeen carefully planned, and it is mygoal to follow the path that has beenindicated by the great biuilders ofthis institution.Anticipates Work“I look forward with great pleasureto work with you who formed the in¬stitution, watched after its growth,and are helped by its guidance. Iknow that no man could be receivedwith a greater welcome than I havebeen received.”The thirty-third commemorativechapel services were held immediatelyafterwards in Mandel hall. Rev. The¬odore G. Soares, University chaplain,presided.Reviews HistoryAt the chapel exercise the newlyinstalled president said: “It has beenthe custom at these exercises to speakin some detail of the University, itsattendants and its projects.“The University opened its doorsthirty-three years ago. For one gen¬eration the University has grown andhas developed true to those high idealswhich have made the University in aw-ay unique.“The University’s policy as followedout in its courses has been to bringits students in contact with the prob¬lems of life. The University of Chi¬cago has not tended through its in¬fluence to remove from reality the stu¬dents, but rather has it trained menfor the life of the world. Today wesee on every hand evidences of theremarkable physical growth. Thoseof us v.no have been on the facultiesof other institutions have learned ofthe mental growth.“Convinced as I have been ot theunity of purpose of the University ofChicago, I have ha:d borne upon methe greatest evidences of the gener¬osity of the University. I can takeon my task of co-operation with youwith great happiness and high hopes.We are all partners of the greatestthing that life can know.” Wearing of theGreen Will beEnforced HereFreshman caps, the only officialdesignation of freshmen as a body,must be worn by all freshmen duringthe autumn quarter, according to anannouncement received yesterdayfrom the undergraduate council. Dis¬tinguished by a maroon visor and abutton of the same color, the officialcaps are on sale only at the UniversityBookstore.During freshman week the verdantheadgear were boldly sported aboutthe campus by only a few of the morereckless youngsters, but henceforth,according to Charles Anderson, presi¬dent of the undergraduate council, un¬adorned freshmen will roam the Uni¬versity at the risk of being throwninto the Botany pond by upper class-men, through whom the council willenforce this traditional practice.The price of the official caps is onedollar—fifty cents of which goes tothe undergraduate council as a taxupon all entering students. In advis¬ing the soonest possible purchase ofthe caps, the council notes that Oc¬tober usually finds the water in theBotany pond very, very cold.FACULTY HOLDSANNUAL BANQUETHomecoming Affair Plannedfor Monday at HutchinsonThe annual homecoming dinner ofthe University faculties will takeplace Monday, Oct. 5, at 6:30 in Hut¬chinson hall. “Faculty members willbe given the opportunity of greetingPresident Mason and the new mem¬bers of the staff.” said Nathaniel But¬ler, assistant to the president. “Thisdinner is always one of the most in¬formal and enjoyable events of theyear,” Mr. Butler continued.Vice-President James Hayden Tuftswill preside, and Dr. Thomas Wake¬field Goodspeed will offer the invoca¬tion. President Mason will make aninformal address, after which a rollcall of the new members will betaken. Prof. W. A. Craigie of theEnglish department, Prof. R. W. Ken-iston of the Romance department, andProf. W. W. Charters of the Collegeof Education, will be introduced.For persons who wish to reserveseats, tickets may be secured for onedollar at the box office on the eveningof the dinner.Fish that were fossils when thewhale swallowed Jonah have been dugup in the Gaspe peninsula, east of. Que¬bec, by Prof. A. S. Romer, of theUniversity paleontology department,it became known today. The speci¬mens discovered are from fifty to ahundred million years old, five timesthe age of the well known dinosaur,and probably swam the waters of theearth many decades before the ap¬pearance of animals on land.The excavator unearthed the fos¬sil of the French fin fish with some ofits muscle still attached to the bone. NO BAND SUITSNO PARADE SAYMUSICIANS HERERely on Students To Sup¬port Drastic Actionof BandChicago’s famous bass drum, thelargest in the Conference, and theboast of Chicago’s stands, will not betrundeled on the field tomorrow whenthe Kentucky Colonels invade Staggfield. For there will be no Chicagoband parade on Stagg field Saturday.The bandsmen have revolted; they re¬fuse to march out to compete withrival bands in the cast off uniformsof the Military department. They de¬mand new and snappy uniforms tooutfit the band as they bfelieve itshould be.Mr. Wilson, director of the band,declared yesterday that his men re¬fused to march before the stands inthe sloppy uniforms that the band hadto wear last year. He reminded thereporter of the disgraceful march thatopened the season la«t year, when theband marched in civilian clothes, tothe discredit of the University.“It is up to the student body,” saidMr. Wilson. “The band will not beoutfitted as it should be until the stu¬dents have expressed their opinion ofsuch a step so strongly that the actionhas to be taken. We are relying onthe students to support the band inthis issue.”English ScholarStarts AmericanDictionary HereWith the aim of compiling a dic¬tionary of the English language fromthe American standpoint, Prof. Wil¬liam A. Craigie, editor of the Oxforddictionary and professor of Englishat Oxford University, has come tothe University and will corroboratewith Prof. John Mathews Manley,chairman of the department of Eng¬lish at the University,Prof. Craigie has found that wordsthat had dropped out of usage in theeighteenth century were later discov¬ered in the works of American writer?.The task will be to trace the originof words that have been in use InAmerica since the sixteenth century.In this work the aid of volunteer stu-rdents is being solicited. Workers in iall parts of the country are beingsought to aid in research work. Manyof these will come from among stu¬dents who are seeking higher degreesThis discovery, characterized as rareby Prof. Romer, is explained as dueto the fact that the fish probably diedup in a mud flat before it was cov¬ered by centuries of debris and be¬fore it had a chance to rot. A rela¬tive of this species still lives in Af¬rica, Prof. Romer declared.The collection includes about twodozen complete skeletons and fiftypartial ones totaling in weight about500 pounds. In size the specimensvary from one inch total length to afoot skull length. Shipment has beenordered from Canada to the Univer¬sity.Professor A. S. Romer UnearthsAncient Fish Fossils in Canada Whererin the News Editor TellsThe Frosh What It’s All AboutBy W. G. WILLIAMSONEducators throughout the countryare making great efforts to find thereasons for the failure of so manyfreshmen to make a success of theirfirst year. The failure of the Amer¬ican freshman is largely attributed tochange in environment although thereare many reasons proffered.The average frosh leaving for col¬lege lacks that “I own the world”attitude that saturates the sophomoreand upperclassman. He is bashful,lacks a yellow slicker, fails to flirtwith every pretty girl and his luggagecarries no university sticker. And ashe looks at the jewelled badges of theGreeks his own prep school pin looksstrangely inadequate. The fact is heis unprepared.Many of the less mature boys ex¬pect to find college a place where stu¬dents give yells between classes, winevery athletic contest, rescue the kid¬naped quarterback from the opposingschool thirty minutes before the cru¬cial game and an instutition whereevery neophyte must win his blackand blue stripes. In fact they are tooinnocent.The guileless underclassman hasread all of the lurid literature aboutcollege debauches. Every sophomoreis expected to carry a flask and everyco-ed seemingly carries a cigarettecase. Graceful necking at eighty milesan hour is a prerequisite. The inno¬cent abroad is necessarily disillus¬ioned.There is little doubt but that a fra¬ternity is a great aid socially and scho¬lastically to the freshman. Manyfriends are made with a pledge but¬ton. And the group spirit that per¬vades every Greek house helps toinstill a do-or-die feeling in the mat¬ter of scholarship. The fact is thereis no fraternity quite as good as yourown and it is the exceptional manthat will not fight with pigskin andpen for his brothers. And after col¬lege days are past fraternity connec¬tions continue as one of the better in¬fluences in life. The colony of Greeksnow numbers approximately 609,000.After Freshman Week the Maroonfrosh now undoubtedly realise theseriousness of school. Schcomes first, your fraternitysecond and pleasure third. T1short college years are theyour life. Get into a campusrespect the traditions of thesity now entering its thirtyffourthyear and make friends.WAR DEPARTMENTSLASHES STUDENTENROLLMENTov¬aryBy order of the United Stateernment enrollment in thescience department of the Urii r$$itywill be limited this year to twfc hun¬dred and twenty-five.

When thecornerstone of the Albert Merritt Billings Memorial hospital settlesinto place the people of the University may rejoice in the realizationof another dream. The University’s history has been a successionof similar realizations; but today’s event is peculiarly significant.The medical group on the Midway is the most imposing singleproject yet undertaken by the University. The five buildings nowunder construction will be the core of the complete medical groupeventually to occupy the whole double block between Ellis andDrexel avenues, and between 58th and 59th streets. The new group !will have one-third as many cubic feet of volume as all the restof the University. It will be dominated by two towers eighteenfeet higher than the towers of Harper Library.Students now entering the medical school will complete theircourse on the Quadrangles, instead of transferring to Rush Medicalcollege at the halfway point. Clinics and laboratories for the coursewill be at hand here; the allied departments of chemistry, physics,zoology, botany, etc., will be at the medical student’s service. Theschool on the West Side will be used for advanced work and re¬search.This increased co-operation of departments and schools has longbeen the hope of the University's leaders. Therefore they exult,and the whole University exults, to see these new buildings risingand taking shape, literally against the hope-filled western skies, tobe a lasting source of service to the world.THE WOMEN’S COUNCILThe new council recently formed to take the place of the Deanof Women assumed its duties yesterday. Fifteen women holdingexecutive positions, and an executive committee of three have beenappointed to deal with problems formerly under the jurisdictionof Miss Marion Talbot, retired dean of women.The necessity for the present re-organization of the post has beenevident for a number of years. The duties of the dean of women,comparatively few at the beginning of the University’s history, havegrown in number and complexity. What was comparatively a simplematter of administration thirty-three years ago has now become atask necessitating the attention of many. During her years of servicewith the University, Miss Talbot managed to take in her capablecharge the new duties, educational, social and athletic that arose,and gave to all, the engrossing and careful attention they required.But when Miss Talbot retired last spring, the question was raisedwhether at this time some step might be taken to conserve the valu¬able organization she had worked out, and to secure a wider par¬ticipation by women members of the faculty in dealing with thevarious problems affecting women students. It is believed thatthe council plan is the answer.SALUTATORYOn an October day, a generation ago, a group of men in cap andgown stood on the steps of Cobb hall. A few bystanders watchedthem—no great throng. A few words were said—no ponderousaddress. Then one of the men took a key and unlocked the door.The University of Chicago had begun.Yesterday, on the thirty-third anniversary of that day, men incap and gown again stood on the steps of Cobb hall. The crowdwas not much greater than the earlier one; the speeches were nolonger. The University of Chicago began its second generation asquietly as its first.One who was lately a stranger, took the key and unlocked thedoor.The Daily Maroon welcomes him, a9 he unlocked the door ofCobb, with few words. Much has been printed already about MaxMason; this column will not add more.I THE DAILY MAROON, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 2, 1925CHICAGO ETHICAL SOCIETYA non-sectarian religious society to foster the knowledge, loveand practice of the right.THE STUDEBAKER THEATRE418 S.

He has been working on pow¬erful line plays, much like the playswhich brought the downfall of Illinoislast year, but which presents pros¬pects of being even more successful.He also has been working on the de¬velopment of the forward pass, a fac¬tor of attack which Stagg teams havelacked during the past two years.Plungers PowerfulThe men who have been used tocarry the ball on the powerful linebucking plays are such performers asFrancis, McCarty, Timme and Marks.Against even the regular line com¬posed of men like Captain Henderson,Hobseheid, Hibben, Moore and Neff,Stagg’s crashers rarely fail to gain,clipping off from five to ten yards onevery attempt.To make these plays successful, thelinemen have been working hard onblocking and opening holes under thedirection of Coach Joe Pondelik, forperfect co-ordination in line play isfully as necessary as any other factor.Kentucky Line HeavyKentucky’s heavy line will be aworthy test for these new Maroonplays—for Kentucky will send north aline weighing fully as much on theaverage as any line in the conference.From tackle to tackle, the KentuckyJin wighs on an average 190 pounds,though they are a trifle weak in thematter of substitutes.Charley Duval, forward passer, whohas been having many of his passesintercepted in practice of late becausehe tosses them too low and in toostraight a line, tried to get them high-up, and thus avert some possibilitiesof interception. Stagg also had Kern¬wein and Marks tossing the passes.The eligibility of members of thefootball squad will be announced to¬morrow, though there is no expecta¬tion that any of the more importantgridders will fall from grace with theauthorities.Kernwein in Practice.Graham Kernwein has been prac¬ticing punting for the past week, andhas developed a strong and accuratetoe, kicking the ball consistentlyaround fifty yards.The Kentcky team which will in¬vade the midway has a very cleverbackfield machine which will thor¬oughly test the strength of the Chi¬cago line.The southern team is coached byFred Murphy, a graduate of Yale whofor three years coached Northwestern.During the time he was in, Chicago,the north shore school had one ofthe strongest teams in the Big Ten.Jenkins, left halfback, js one of theoutstanding stars on the southernteam. He is a real triple threat man,and is considered one of the most dan¬gerous open field runners in the southThe Kentucky team is expected toarrive today and practice on StaggField in the afternoon.Tomorrow morning two specialtrains will arrive from Lexington% bringing over 1,500 rooters and the■University of Kentucky band. Maroon Ball Team InMidst of JapInvasionChicago’s baseball team, which ison its fourth tour of the Orient, isnow in the bidst of a series withthe leading colleges of Japan. TheChicago teams toured Japan »n1910, 1915 and 1920, playing Wa-seda, Keio and other Oriental uni¬versities.The Maroons left Chicago late inAugust after a summer of practice.Coach Nelson H. Norgren was incharge of the party. Marks, pitch¬er and outfielder, was the only reg¬ular who did not make the trip ashe is on the football squad.The Maroons’ trip was very suc¬cessful, winning six out of sevengames played including a 4 to 3win over the University of Cali¬fornia. They also won two out ofthe four games they played duringtheir week in Hawaii.The team is expected to returnabout the end cf December.PENN PREPARESFOR MAROONINVASIONWhen the Chicago team travels toPhiladelphia on Oct. 24, it will be thefirst meeting of the Maroons and theQuakers in a quarter of a century.Although the local squad was de¬feated by the easterners at that time,western football had made greatstrides in the intervening years andfootball fans are waiting to see if Chi¬cago can down its old rival.As both Chicago and Pennsylvaniaare regarded as leaders in their re¬spective sections the game on Oct. 24takes on importance other than merelybeing intersectional. Last year Chi¬cago was the undefeated Big Tenchampion while Penn was one of thethree undefeated eastern elevens.Dartmouth, another team the Maroonswill face this season, also passedthrough its schedules unscathed.Fight BrownPenn is pointing for the Yale gamewhich falls on the Saturday beforethe Maroons invade the Quaker field.Previous to this they will battle Brownwho always puts out a strong team.Although Ohio State and Northwest¬ern will battle the Maroons before thePenn game the Staggmen will directtheir efforts to the big intersectionalbattle so they should profit on thepoint of condition.Another big intersectional battle willbe the Dartmouth-Chicago game onNov. 14. This will be the big gameof the home season and reservationsare already forthcoming. Stagg’sheavy schedule has the Maroons atUrbana on Nov. 7, so the gridders willface a superhuman problem in con¬ditioning. Due to its tie with Yalelast season the Big Green is consid¬ered the equal of Penn. This will givethe fans unable to journey to Penn¬sylvania the thrill of an all-importantsectional setto.Dope forecasters have it that Chi¬cago is on equal footing with both ofthese teams and Big Ten followersare firm in the belief that Stagg’ssquad will emerge victorious in bothgames.FORD BARGAIN!1924 Ford Touring, less thana year old with over-sized cordtires, wheel and wheel-lock, newbrake bands and other accessor¬ies, $275.

Last year both the eastern andwestern collegiate champions bowedbefore VanVactor, whose graduationlast year makes it uncertain as tothe outcome of the oncoming meetswith the strong Wisconsin, Purdue,Ohio State and Illinois teams.Chicago will meet Penn State atPhiladelphia and the Navy team atBartlett gym.

In former yearsthis has always been a hard game forOhio and it is understood that CoachWilce intends to inject his fullstrength into the fray.The Scarlet and Gray will face thekick-off Saturday minus the servicesof ten veterans of last season. Theloss of Captain “Tee” Young at cen¬ter, presented a great problem untilthe return of Klein, a letter man of1922, who at present has cinched thepivot job. The graduation of fourguards has caused the line coaches alot of worry and this looks like theweak spot on the team at present.Hess, Kreglow and Myers look likethe best of the lot at present and allwill get their chance Saturday. Jen¬kins, regular tackle of last year, willhold down his old berth on one sideof the line while Nichols, another vet¬eran, who broke his leg early last sea¬son, will attempt a comeback at theother tackle. Captain Cunningham,who was almost unanimous choice forAll-Western last year will perform atone flank. Gorrill and “Red” Seiffer,a basket ball guard, are fighting neckand neck for the other end with Gor¬rill holding the advantage at the pres¬ent writing. The backfield at presentlooms strong with quarterback beingthe only position in doubt. The grad¬uation of Jake Cameran left a big holeand Wilce has not as yet found a sat¬isfactory successor, but Bpll, a soph¬omore, who showed up well with theFrosh squad last year, will undoubt¬edly cal signals against Wesleyan Sat¬urday. Coaches Paul Huntington and A. A.Stagg Jr., yesterday divided the hugefrosh squad into six teams and thenobserved the yearlings go throughtheir paces. Many rough edges willhave to be polished off if the first yearmen are to give the varsity any sortof competition in scrimmage.A few candidates however, caughtthe eyes of the coaches by showingthat they were familiar with the pig¬skin.
