DAVID STARR JORDANPresident Emeritus StanfordUniversityA university is a school with twochief missions — the development ofthe higher scholarship through origin¬al study and research in science, his-story and the arts, and for profes¬sional training in lines in which ac¬curate knowledge is applied to popu¬lar welfare and usefulness in life.Its main problems lie in the rela¬tions of these to elementary or basalinstruction and to the desire to reaprewards of scholarship by short cutswith a minimum of effort.The World War, with all its crimesand blunders, made a few truthsclear. One of these was that success,other things being equal, depends ontraining of the mind. As universitiesare established for that very purpose,the average young man and womanrushes into one of them. As a con¬sequence all that deserve the publicconfidence (and some others) havefound their number of students dou¬bled. This means a great pressureon resources, forbidding the paymentof adequate salaries to real scholarsand able teachers and also requiringthe services of many untried helperswho do their best with impossiblycrowded classes.

It measures morethan eight inches long and is nearly asgreat in diameter.Bring Tooth HereThe giant skeleton was discovereda few years ago in the old riverbed ofthe Wabash river, by O. D. Riley, afarmer who lives six miles from Shaw-neetown. When the riverbed was beingdredged, some of the bones interferedwith the work. But no one conceivedof them being anything but dead tim¬ber or bridge parts.With hook and tackle, the farmersfinally removed with considerable dif¬ficulty what they thought was a log.When recovered from the mud andcleaned up, the specimen took on newform. It measured eight and a halffeet long and thirteen inches in diam¬eter at the larger end.Tusk DiscoveredThat it wras a tusk, soon becameknown and the speciman was carefullystored in the woodshed. Corn cultiva¬tors and milk pails were cast aside.Riley resolved to be an archeologist.Dreams of a fortune haunted Rileynightly as he planned to exhibit atcounty fairs this overgrown horsewhich he had dug from his hack yard.Not only a mastodon, however, wasfound in the teposit, but also a groundsloth and a smaller mastodon, and Mr.Mac Clintock believes that possiblymore specimens will be uncovered inthe same place.The supposition is that the placewhere these bones xvere uncovered wasonce a drinking hole and that the ani¬mals were caught in the mud. As themastodon was a mammal of the Glacialage it is probable that it existed morethan a million years ago.As nearly as can be judged from thesize of the teeth, tusks and a few bonesthe animal weighed between ten andtwelve tons and stood nearly, eighteenfeet. It is thought to be the largestmastodon ever uncovered.Tryouts for positions in the chapelchoir will be held every afternoon from2 to 3:30 in the office of Mack Evans,music director, on the second floor ofMitchell Tower. Positions are open tofreshmen and sophomores, men andwomen.“To the successful candidates of thefreshman and sophomore classes thereis open the opportunity of membershipin the musical organization of the newchapel,” said Mr. Evans. “The plansand sketches of this building were fa¬mous among art students and archi¬tects long before building operationswere begun. It will he one of the fewchurches in America to have a musicalequipment that is at once traditionaland adequate.”The choir sings at all chapel serv¬ices and offers its members a small sal¬ary and a considerable amount of musi¬cal discipline and recreation, accordingto Mr. Evans. Sloths in IllinoisThe uncovering of the ground slothproves to science that the animals ofSouth America once migrated to thenorth at least as far north as Illinois.The sloth is a comparatively small butpowerful animal. One variety of themstill exists in Africa. They are butabout three feet in height but havetails that measure fifteen feet or more.Whether or not the University willfinish the excavation of the mastodonhas not yet been decided, as the projectwould require considerable financing.Furthermore the University has noplace to house a skeleton so huge.There is no museum or building atthe university which would satisfac-torilly house so large a prehistoricanimal. The disposition of the masto¬don’s skeleton has not been settled.It adds another signal victory to thelong list achieved by members of ourfaculty, however.Page Two THE DAILY MAROON, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 6, 1925oft??

ManagerThomas Field Copy ManagerJack Pincus Classified ManagerPhilip Kaus Circulation ManagerThe Band SituationThis column is devoted today to readers of The Daily Maroonwho express their opinions on the band situation.The Editor,The Daily Maroon,The University of Chicago,Chicago, Illinois.Dear Sir:Both your editorial in the “Maroon” of Thursday and the ar¬ticle in Friday morning’s Tribune dealing with the dressing up of theband and the revolt in that organization respectively, have hit me ata time when the subject of the band’s appearance was taking muchof my time and thought.We loyal Chicagoans have everything in the world to be proudof. But to ask us to assume a braggadocia attitude in respect to ourband, especially after having seen and heard the incomparableorange-plumed Illini, the military Purdue, the strutting scarlet andgrey clad Buckeyes, or even the purple-caped Northwesterners, thatis certainly stretching a point.For the last two or three years there have been endless discus¬sions as to methods of remedying the disreputable appearance of ourband. But yet, it would seem, nothing has been done. The under¬graduates on the campus have had their opportunity to help andhave not responded very encouragingly. Why not, then, give thealumni a chance to prove their loyalty and appreciation of all Chi¬cago does? Briefly, this is the plan that I would suggest:At the earliest possible game, Ohio State preferably, have theband parade in front of the entire west stands bearing a sign askingloyal supporters of Chicago to contribute to a band fund or newequipment. Have the cheer-leaders announce that during the inter¬val between the halves a collection will be taken up in the weststands. And then during the intermission provide a bevy of our re¬nowned beautiful co-eds to comb the grads and old-timers loose oftheir much-needed shekels—not pledges but real hard cash.I am sure that no one will refuse this worth-while plea, and too,I feel confident that the west stands alone will yield between five andten thousand dollars in one attempt. In the main the occupants ofthis section are, like myself, season ticket holders who have a deepinterest in Chicago affairs. 1 know that they will respond to such adegree that there will be a goodly sum left after new uniforms areprovided, to allow for ample remuneration for the loyal members ofthe band. Thus, and thus only would there be an incentive for mento play in the band. Let us pay the men and give them proper equip¬ment and they will surely consider it a privilege and an honor to play,and in this way we will get all the finest musicians to become mem¬bers of our organization. There are plenty of these available for serv¬ice but who refuse to be seen in the atrocious uniforms provided.Why not try something like this? Let us put Chicago’s band whereit belongs—on a par with that of Illinois. Or better yet, let us makeChicago the incomparable.Yours for Chicago dominance,L. S. SHAPIRO, ’25.The Daily Maroon,Faculty Exchange,I read with a great deal of regret the article relative to the“strike” of the University Band. I say REGRET, because it is aregrettable occurence that an organization of the type of our bandshould have to strike in order to have their modest demands filled.When I was on the staff of “The Daily Maroon” during myFreshman and Sophomore years I often “covered” the band as apart of my daily assignments.

By all means let ussupport the band in its step for better uniforms—it will bring up themorale of the body, and the students will not be ashamed to say“That’s OUR band,” but before the band comes on the field it willsay, “WATCH OUT for our band!”Say it with uniforms!A.

Fro.H P*u WellHowever the first year men havesome mean passers, whom the varsitymust check if they expect to make anyheadway against the Ohio State over¬head attack Saturday. Mooney of Loy¬ola, Gentile of Tilden, Dunn of St.Paul, Gist of Hyde Park, Leyers ofLindblom, and Klein of Senn are fairlyadept at hurling and receiving the pig¬skin. and may cause the varsity sometrouble as Chicago was noticeablywe'.lf against a forward pass attacklast year.Vanity Line HeavyThe freshman line is no match forsuch hefty lineman'as Henderson, Hob-scheid, Neff, Pokrass, Wolf, and Red¬den, so that scrimmage with the greencappers will not test the power of theMaroon offense.If the Maroons can effectively smoth¬er the freshman overhead attack, theyshould hold the combination of Marekto Cunningham or Bell to Cunninghamto a minimum yardage.Mooney Leads PuntersLast year the combination of Cun¬ningham to Klee and Klee to Cun¬ningham nearly destroyed the Maroontitle hopes. This year the Maroons willbe set for any passing plays that DocWilce can devise, besides counteringwith an equally proficient passing at¬tack with Wallie Marks and ChuckDuval hurling the oval.

No glar¬ing faults were in evidence, but pol¬ish in several departments of thegame were lacking. However, for thefirst game of the season, these bits oflack co-ordination were at a mini¬mum.

Only two men, Timme and Stan Rouse showed up asexpected. The former has not lostthe line smashing ability that helpedto vanquish Princeton in ’21 and Stanshowed a nifty cut back on off tackleplays.
