Dr.'Sapir said that his research in lin¬guistics had convinced him of theidentity of the language spoken bycertain Indian tribes with that of theprimitive Chinese.The similarity of the two tonguesand the linguistic distribution oftribes virtually scattered at randomover the Americas have convincedDr. Sapir that these groups musthave entered this continent as awedge from Asia. Comparing theprimitive Chinese, Siamese andTibetian, all in the same languagecategory, with the language of the“Nadene group” in North America,Dr. Sapir has found the same pecu¬liarities of phonetics, vocabulary andgrammatical structure on both sidesof the Pacific.Finds SimilaritiesParadoxically, the anthropologistpoints out, the American Indiangroups are found in all parts of theNorth American continent fromnorthern Mexico to the southernboundary of Alaska well distributedamong other Indian tribes whose lon-guage and customs are entirely dif¬ferent. With minor changes, hesaid, the Navajo of New Mexicosneaks the language of the Sarcee inAlberta and the linguistic stock ofthe Tlingit just south of the Esquim¬aux in Alaska is much the same asthat of the Hupa in California.It is probable, according to DrSapir, that the migration of Asiatics WHY DO STUDENTSFLUNK V—SCIENCEEXPOUNDS THEORYWhy do students flunk?

Jennette Hayward, chair¬man of the social committee, is nowat work on the arrangements for theFreshman Frolic which is given everyautumn. Changes in the personnel of boththe editorial and business depart¬ments of the Cap and Gown resultedyesterday in the appointment of JohnMeyer an editor and John Hopkinsand Elmer Grage as business man¬agers. Gifford Hitz, who remains onthe staff, also from last year, is tobe managing editor.Charles Eckstein, who was electedchairman of the editorial board lastspring, left the position vacant, dueto his ineligibility. There will be apossibility of his returning to thestaff next quarter. George Robbin,who was elected business managerlast Spring, is not in residence thisquarter.At a meeting of the staff yesterdayit was decided that the editorialboard should be abolished and thatMeyer should act in the capacity ofeditor. Meyer will therefore havecharge of the editorial staff for thisyear, and Grage and Hopkins willhave charge of the business depart¬ment.The business staff will commencework at once, according to Hopkins,and any freshmen interested inworking in this department shouldreport immediately. Meyer has alsocalled a meeting for all Sophomoreassociate editors Friday at 3:30 infront of Cobb hall.Mr. Frank H. O’Hara, director ofstudent activities, issued the follow¬ing statement yesterday concerningthe changes in the staff:“There is every indication that theslight changes will in no way lessenthe strength of the Cap and Gownstaff. The men and women of thestaff are starting with encouragingaccord, and with definite plans foran excellent book.” Leaping from cliff to cliff in thedizzy heights of the Rock} mountainswas the recreation last summer ofProf. Paul Miller of the departmentof geology.During the past three months hehas been on a research expeditionin Wyoming, Nebraska and SouthDakota. This is the eighteenth con¬secutive year that Prof. Miller hasbeen west in search of fossils to addto the University collection.Prof. Miller speaks lightly of hi9harrowing experiences during thetrip. “Falls are a part of the day’swork,” he said. “A research explor¬er must not mind them.” He receivedno broken bones as a result of hishazardous pastime but was consider¬ably shaken up at one time when injumping from one rock to anotherhe slipped and fell sprawling a shortdistance down a rocky slope. Luck¬ ily he merely bruised his hip.Stored in his laboratory in WalkerMuseum are the results of the ex¬pedition. According to Prof. Miller,enough specimens were secured tokeep him busy mounting for the nexttwo or three years. The specimensare carefully wrapped and paddedwith cloth at the place of discoveryunless they are imbedded in solidrock. In the latter case they mustbe extracted very carefully andmounted on a stand of a rock coloredfoundation.Prof. Miller said, cheerfully, thathe never expected bo be caught up inhis mounting work. At almost anyhour of the day he may be foundsorting and fitting the bones of someprehistoric animal onto a partiallycompleted skeleton. “There are al¬ways more specimens than can bemounted,” he declared.Promise of NewUniforms BreaksMusicians’ StrikeNo decision was reached in a con¬ference today, concerning a suitabletonic for discussion at the comingdebate with Cambridge on Nov. 23,although preference was shown forthe four questions submitted by theCambridge debaters. It was decidedthat one these questions would beused, all of them being acceptableones. They are as follows:“Resolved, that the future of thehuman race depends more on thesciences than on the arts and human¬ities.“Resolved, that this house pities itsgrandchildren.” Cambridge will takethe negative on the first, the affirm¬ative on the second, or the negativeon either of the following:“Resolved, that democracy is afailure,” and “Resolved, that all mi¬gration barriers between countriesshould be rerv,,,,,ed ” Chinese Art CourseOpened to StudentsRegistration in the course on Chin¬ese art offered by the University Col¬lege has not been closed as yet toUniversity students, according to apamphlet recently received on thesubject The class will take up thestudy of Chinese painting and otherart as revealed in representativemasterpieces and native literarysources. A brief outline of the his¬torical development of Oriental artwill also be included in the course,according to Miss Lucy Driscoll whowill instruct the class.The class will meet every Thurs¬day from 4:15 to 6:15 at UniversityCollege, 116 South Michigan Boule¬vard. Again the University band willparade Stagg field for they are tohave some brand new uniforms.Coach A. A. Stagg is chairman ofa committee to select sixty new bandsuits. It is probable that the uni¬forms will be of Maroon color andcut after the style of English officers’coats.Mr. Wilson, directo. of the band,states that the campus musicians willbe marching on the field by the firstof November.The Athletic department hasagreed to finance the buying of thenew suits. Members of the band de¬clare they are glad that the strikeis over. They are now working tomake the organization one of the bestin the conference. Frank O’HaraHeads Hitchcock;Adopts New PlanBy appointment of President MaxMason, Mr. Frank Hurbert O’Hara,director of student activities, will behead of Hitchcock hall, beginningthis quarter. He and his mother,Mrs. Thomas O’Hara, will make theirhome in a suite of rooms in the hall.The selection of Mr. O’Hara marksthe return to the plan advocated byth'1 founder of the hall, Mrs. Hitch-cu«!k. She planned that the hallshould be under the supervision ofboth a man and a woman who wouldlive in the hall and thereby come inclose contact with the students.Dr. Charles A. Parker and his sis¬ter, Mr. and Mrs. David S. Robert¬son, Mr. J. Spencer Dickerson andhis daughter and Dean and Mrs.William H Spencer were those whoconducted the hall as she hadplanned. Later the system was dis¬continued. Dean Lloyd Mints wasMr. O’Hara’s immediate predecessor.Another change in the operation of1the hall has !>een the division intograduate and undergraduate depart¬ments. Sections four and five arenow devoted entirely to undergradu¬ates. fAssisting the new proctors of thehall are, Mr. Royal Montgomery whowas the active head of Blake hall lastyear, Mr. Jerome Kerwin, Mr. A. G.Pierrot and Mr. Glenn Harding. TWENTY FRESHMENWIN SCHOLARSHIPS UPPERCLASSES TONOMINATE HEADSAT CHAPEL HOURFreshmen to be GovernedBy New CouncilOrganizationMiss Marion Richeson WinsHighest AwardTwenty freshmen at the Univer¬sity were today awarded scholarshipscarrying full tuition for the sopho¬more year on the basis of excellencein the work of the first year in col¬lege. The awards were made tothose having the highest averages inthe class. Miss Marion Richeson,who had the highest average, wasawarded the Lillian Gertrude Selzscholarship, which grants full annualtuition fees plus twenty-five dollarsin cash.The students to whom the scholar¬ships were granted, according to anannouncement by Dean Ernest HatchWilkins, are: Lawrence Apitz, ArchieBlake, Leo Brown, Jeanette Child,Ruth Egdorf, Eli Fink, Edna Gross,Gertrude Holmes, Martha Ireland,Walter Kincaid, Marumoto Masaji,Katherine Miller, Edgar Reinke,Peter Roonzedale, Emelyn Rowell,Kathryn Schultz, Charlotte Spen-koch, Eleanor Wilkins, and HerbertWolfe. Religion will give way to politics inthe next two weeks when the nom¬ination and election of officers of theupper three undergraduate classeswill displace the regular weeklychapel service, it was announced lateyesterday by Charles Anderson, pres¬ident of the Undergraduate council,after a meeting of that body held inthe afternoon.Inaugurating a new policy for thegoverning of the Freshman class, theCouncil has decided to appoint fouror five members from the first yearclass who, together with two or moreofficers from the upper classes, willform a council which will take theplace of class officers until Dec. 1when the Freshmen will be allowedto make their owp selection of lead¬ers.Graham Hagey, retiring presidentof the class of 1926, has been ap¬pointed to take charge of the chapelmeetings for the next two weekswhen nominations will be made andelections held.The Hare system of preferentialvoting, which was in use last year,will be again employed in determin¬ing the final choice of the class. Aninnovation decided upon by the coun¬cil was the rotating of names on bal¬lots.When a'student does not know anyof the candidates on the ballot it isfound that he is inclined to vote forthe first one on the list.Representation of the Freshmanclass on the Undergraduate councilwill come through the upper classofficers who will serve on the Fresh¬man council, instead of through itspresident. The presidents of allclasses are made members ofCouncil automatically. theCALL FOR PLEDGE LISTSAll fraternities must have theirpledge lists ready this afternoon.

ManagerThomas Field Copy ManagerJack Pincus Classified ManagerPhilip Kaus Circulation ManagerTHIS QUARTER’S PLEDGINGTonight at twelve o’clock all autumn quarter pledging will cease;those entering Freshmen remaining unpledged will not be pledgeduntil the beginning of the Witer quarter, if at all. It seems fittingthat comment on the new rules should be made at this time.In the first place, the spirit of friendly rivalry which fired thefraternities during this last two weeks was very different from thespirit which it was feared would animate this rushing season. Inyesterday’s Maroon, Robert Carr, the president of the Inter-Fia-ternity council, said that no cases of pledge tampering have beenreported to him. This indicates that the fraternities have done th^irbest to co-operate loyally under a system that almost none of themwere in favor of a few short months ago.The noticeable number of “legacies” entering school this fall isa sign of the increasing age of the University. We constitute thesecond genreation of students. Some of us are the sons and daugh¬ters of persons who attended this school in the very early days.Tire University is attaining an appreciable age.The pledging which was done here during the inter-scholastictrack meet last spring has yielded a very good return. The menthere pledged have returned forty strong. This is a splendid recordwhen compared with the two obtained by this method in the pre¬ceding four years.The pledging rules now in force will probably be used for manyyears, as they act to the benefit of everybody. Modifications willbe introduced from time to time we have no doubt, but the spiritand to a large extent the letter of the present system will be retained.THE FRATERNITY FUNCTIONDo Greek-letter organziations form a part of university life thatshould be scorned and driven to the depths of oblivion, or do they,by strict adherence to their creeds, contribute something of intrinsicworth to be esteemed by those who take their vows? Not longago there appeared in a magazine the creed of one of the nationalorganizations represented at Indiana University. Tire creed, in part,is as follows:“To lend to those less fortunate a helping hand; . . . to be toothers what we would they would be to us; to keep our lives gentle,merciful and just; to walk in the way of honor, guarding the purityof our thoughts and deeds; being steadfast in every duty, small orlarge; . . . striving to esteem the inner man above culture, wealthor pedigree; ... to serve in the light of truth, avoiding egotism,narrowness and scorn . . .” TWENTY RECENTNOVELS ADDED TORENTAL LIBRARY TRACE ORIGIN OF AMERICANINDIAN TO ANCIENT ASIA“A maiden fair handles with careA husband of spun-glass,In a risky tale as rare and frailAs a Dresden demi-tasse.”So the Chicago Daily News de¬scribes the theme of Elinor Wylie’snew novel, “The Venetian GlassNephew,” one of the books recentlyadded to the rental library.

The Ameri¬can Indians have no literature andit is therefore necessary to recordthe language from oral interviews.The scholar must be familiar not onlywith all the dialects and changeswhich have rendered the Nadenegroup almost obscure, but with thehundreds of Chinese characterswhich go to form the tone and mean¬ing of the Oriental language.SCORE CLUB NAMESOCT. 30 AS DATEFOR ANNUAL DANCEOFFICIAL NOTICESCongregational Club will welcomenew students of that denomination a';a party to be held at 8 in the Com¬mons room of the Chicago TheologicalSeminary, 1164 East 58th Street.Gerald Birney Smith, professor ofChristian doctrine, will address theDivinity chapel today at noon in Has¬kell Assembly room.

Y.Truly, the ideals set forth in this creed, which doubtless are char¬acteristic of all organization doctrines, are commendable guides toconduct. We believe fraternities and sororities manifest an influencethat serves to strengthen the ties of friendship. They induce theirmembers to develop a greater zeal for their univrsity and helpthem prepare to take a more active part in the affairs of the com¬munity in which they may live after graduation. They exhort theirmembers to choose wisdom above everything else, and some ofthem maintain so-called ‘‘study tables” in an attempt to win thecoveted scholarship cup offered by the Panhellenic councils.There are some of the aims of Greek-letter organizations as wesee them. To be sure, some of them stray from the path of theircreeds, occasionally. But, for the most part, fraternities and sorori¬ties exert an influence that is worth being upheld.—The IndianaDaily Student.

FROSH USE OHIO STATE ATTACK INSCRIMMAGE WITH REGULARS; MAKEFEW GAINS THROUGH MAROON LINE“Bus” Dunn Is Outstanding Ground Gainer On YearlingTeam; Kemwein Shows Great Form in Inter¬cepting and Blocking PassesUsing an entire set of Ohio plays,the freshman team made its initialstand against the Varsity last night.The Frosh, almost 20 pounds to aman lighter, than the upper classmenshowed a surprising degree of classfor so early in the season. The plays jwere executed well and several timesthe yearling plunges pierced the Var¬sity forward wall for substantialgains. The pass attack failed to liveup to predictions, due mainly to thework^of the first string-backs.Baker Good at CenterThe Varsity lined up with Bakerat center, Pokrass and Hibben atguards, Hobschied and Hendersonat tackles and Lampe and McDon¬ough on the flanks. Abbott was atquarter with Kernwein, McCarty andMarks making up the backfield. Theline held the Frosh backs pretty well,although a couple of times the firstyear men managed to make firstdowns on a fake through the line.The work of Maker at center wasvery good. Several times he man¬aged to break through and throw therunner for a loss. Marty Pokrass was getting into all the plays as wasSam Hibben. Hobscheid at the startappeared a little stale but as thescrimage warmed up he smashed intoplays with his usual regularity.Henderson was getting tackle after| tackle and not an inch was madethrough him. The wing men alsolooked good, especially Lampe, whoseems to have returned to his 1923form. He will undoubtedly be oneof the premier ends of the confer¬ence this year.The backfield did not have muchchance to show their wares as theOld Man confined the scrimmage todefensive work. Howefver, in themater of defense attack against theforward pass, the work of GrahamKernwein stood out. Time aftertime Coach Huntington instructedhis men to hurl the oval in his direc¬tion only to have Kernwein knockdown the pass or to jump high in theair and intercept it. His work prom¬ises to stamp him as one of the out¬standing backs of the west this year.Marks and McCarty also showedgood defensive ability."It’s twice as fast as writing longhand’’Students say this because with a little practicethey soon become speedy writei s.
