I feel -confident that it willcompare favorably with any play wehave thus far attempted.”The scenery, which has been de¬veloped by George Downing, is com¬plete. Some very unique and suc¬cessful effects have been attempted.Particularly striking is the furniturewhich typifies the interior of an Eng¬lish house of the aristocratic class.Lighting effects have been carried out.by Eugene McCoy, who comes to theDramatic association with a recordof previous successes in this line.Chic Coctumery“The costumes will be modern andvery chic,” said Madge Woodward,costume director. “Those of the men jespecially, will have a decided Eng-,lish touch.”Robert Carr, who has been ap¬pointed head usher for the Fridaynight performance, has completedhis plans.

Miss Chalmers Relates Librarian’sWoes and the Evolution of EllBy Mary Winner HughesE-1I—the bane of students and thecause of grey-headed Librarians!E-ll, behind whose counter, shelfabove shelf of the most fascinatinglynecessary books lurks! Listen to thetale of its evolution!“Originally all reserve books wereparked primly behind the desk ofW-31,” said Miss Gertrude Chalmers,Librarian of E-ll, “and were givenout for the mere asking. Soon, how¬ever, the body of reserves grew likea Florida land project, so that itbecame necessary to move them inback of the place where the referencedesks now stand, and to install openshelves and a counter. Thus the an¬cestor of E-ll opened for business!”But the cry was still more books, sothe ancestor must needs pick up itsshelves and walk again. This timeit moved down to E-20, in the roomnow used as the Library girls’ lunchroom and some innovations wereadded. The door was cut in two sothat books could be poked over ontoa table, and the students were toldto “fait un cour” if they wanted serv¬ice. The result was lines half waydown the steps, and much more con¬fusion.So a time clock was parked con¬veniently, a fence with a turn-styleat one end and a charging table at the other was planted, and studentsinvited to enter the open shelves andpick out their books under watchfuleyes. They did, with the result thatat the end of the quarter, five hun¬dred books had disappeared—vanish¬ed—flew the coop. Then did the Li¬brarians shake their entirely greyedheads, and vote to close the stacksbehind a counter.So that is the way it stands today—this E-ll in Harper.A book may be drawn for threehours, and returned down a shute,where it is immediately stamped byan attendant, with the aid of a timeclock.(Continued on page 2)RELEGATE SENIORBENCH TO MUSTYCORNER NEAR COBBELECT TEN TOPHI BETA KAPPANumber Is On Par WithThat of Other YearsTTith the close of the autumn quar¬ter ten students have been elected tothe Beta of Illinois chapter of PhiBeta Kappa, honorary scholastic frat¬ernity.Bernard Ginsberg, AntoinetteMarie Killen, Clara May McFrancis,Louis Scala, Beatrice Watson andWinifred Ellen Williams have beenelected to the fraternity, with onlytwenty-seven majors and will forma part of the undergraduate Phi BetaKappa society.Four who will receive this dis¬tinction at graduation are LouiseAlexandria Anderson, Leonard Car-don, Ernest Hocking Runyon, Ben¬jamin Morrow Washer.These newly elected members willbe initiated Thursday, Dec. 17, at4:15 in Classics 21. This numbercompares favorably with that of thewinter quarter elections of otheryears, according to Miss Gladys Wal¬ker of the Bureau of Records, andmeets th eaverage of those years.Election to Phi Beta Kappa isrecognized as one of the highest na¬tional honors that can come to anyundergraduate student at the univer¬sities and colleges throughout theUnited States. Time was, though in the past, to besure, when the Senior Bench occu¬pied a dignified position in SleepyHollow, and was the scene of a tra¬ditional weekly sing when at 10o'clock every Thursday evening, justbefore the ringing of the chimes,members of a certain student clubgathered at the Senior Bench, sangthe Alma Mater, gave Chicago yellsand dispersed again. During the warthis custom was tactily suspended,to be resumed when the “fellows”came back.And now the Senior Bench—thepride of all seniors and the awe ofall freshme'n, has been relegated to awindy, snowy corner between Cobbhall and the men’s dormitories.Recently there have been rumorsof a new project, in which the SeniorBench will be reinstated in a newplace of honor. Why not, it has beensuggested, turn the little grassy plotjust south of the new Divinity Schoolinto a Hill of Dreams presided overby the Senior Bench?—a spot whereall students can gather, not to takethe place of Sleepy Hollow, but onewhere all may congregate for socialchatter or perhaps now and then asing?PLAN “SATURNALIA,”ANNUAL ETA SIGMAPHI ROMAN FESTIVALSaturnalia, the annual festival ofEta Sigma Phi, undergraduate classi¬cal club, will be given Friday nightat 8 in the theatre of Ida Noyeshall.

According to George C. Wie-mer, president of the class, a reportwill be made on the collection of theclass dues. Members of the councilwill also make definite arrangementsfor the Junior prom and the classmixer.The Junior class is planning onextensive activity for next quarterdue to the necessitated postponing ofthe mixer this term,” said Wiemerlast night. I COUNCIL PICKSCHAIRMEN FORSTUDENT DRIVERevive Wearing of ClassToques; Extend CoffeeShop HoursCo-chairmen of the Student Friend¬ship committee, named by the Un¬dergraduate council yesterday, areHarry May and Jeanette Hayward.These students will direct the drivewhich is conducted annually on cam¬pus to secure funds for the assistanceof needy students attending foreigncolleges and universities.Class toques, indicating by colorto which class the wearer belongs,will appear on the campus at theopening of the winter quarter. Theywill be worn by both men and women.This question was also settled by thecouncil at the meeting yesterday.Colors for the four classes have notyet been designated, but will probablybe announced soon, Charles Ander¬son, president of the council, stated.Revive ToquesLast year the proposal that toquesof various colors indicative of cl§issstanding be worn on the campus wasconsidered and approved but neveractually carried out. It is the inten¬tion of the council that the rule beenforced this winter.Small campus groups may nowhave luncheon meetings in Hutchin¬son Commons at the rate of fiftycents a plate, as a result of a con¬ference between the managementand the Student council, Andersonannounces. This rate will apply forparties of from fifteen to thirty, andthe raised section at the end of thedining hall will be screened off freeof charge, he states.Open Coffee ShopThe coffee shop at the Commonswill be open evening in the future,the council announces. This matterwas taken up with the management,and the coffee shop will now giveservice between 5 and 10 o’clock,in addition to the regular hours.Receive ReportsReports from various studentboards, such as the Board of Publica¬tions, will be received at the meetingof the council next week, it wasstated.Council members feel that thewearing of toques which indicate astudent’s class, will help to createa class spirit among members of thefour groups, and will be beneficial inother ways.The two decisions made in regardto the operation of\he Commons willbe of great convenience to students,especially groups desiring to holdluncheon meetings, it is felt.SEVERAL NEW BOOKSADDED TO CLASSICSRENTAL COLLECTION“The Practise and Science ofDrawing” by Harold Speed, “BritishPolitics in Transition” by Sait-Bar-rows, and “A Literary History ofAmerica” by Barrett-Wendell areamong the new books recently se¬cured by the classics rental library.Other new books are also nowavailable. “The Sailor’s Return” byDavid Garnett is the story of anEnglish sailor of the nineteenth cen¬tury who marries an African negressof high social position and bringsher back with him to England. “TheVatican Swindle” by Andre Guide,considered by Ernest Boyd, “a curi¬ous compound of detective fiction,social satire, fantastic comedy, andpicturesque adventure.” “Catherinethe Great” by Katherine Anthony, abiography based largely on materialfrom suppressed letters and diaries ofthe empress. “The A B C of Rela¬tivity” by Bertrand Russell, one ofHarper’s Modern Science series. “TheBook about Little Brother,” trans¬lated from the Swedish of Gustaf Gei-jerstam by Edwin Bjorkman.Page Two THE DAILY MAROON, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 10, 1925atop Batlg fUaroottFOUNDED IN 1901THE OFFICIAL 8TUDENT NEWSPAPER OF THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGOPublished morning*, except Saturday.

First it was only a shelf behind the general circula¬tion desk; that was not enough. Later it became a roomful ofshelves, with turnstiles for entering and departing students; that wasunsatisfactory. Today it has chutes, windows, and attendants, in¬stead of turnstiles; but its patrons still complain.They have trouble getting the books they want; and having gotthem, they can not keep them long enough. E-1 1 has too few copiesof a book to supply the classes that use the book. Four or fivecopies are usually its maximum for a given book. Yet a dozen stu¬dents often need the book simultaneously. The time limit is short—too short in many cases—but still the situation is not remedied.The Board of Libraries realizes this fault, but can not remedy it.The Board of Libraries has a problem of its own. If it spends moneyfor more copies of old books, it has less money for new ones. If itbuys five extra copies of Hobbs' “American History, it must denyitself the books by Jiggs, Stokes, Higgins, Wiggins, and Dobbs onthe same subject. The ideal library would have ail of these, and thefive extra Hobbses besides. But our library appropriations are toosmall. Something must be sacrificed.The Board has sought to meet the problem by maintaining a rentallibrary in the Classics building. Such a library, being self-supporting,can supply as many copies of a book as its patrons need—if its pat¬rons pay the bill. The Board can then use its appropriations to buynew books, to fill gaps in its catalogue.So long as the libraries' funds are meagre, such an arrangementseems the best solution. If you can not get the book you want atE-ll, if you must use it longer than the two-and-a-half hour limit, goto the rental library at Classics. Its hours are inconvenient; but itsprices are not exorbitant, and it can give you the book you want.Under the circumstances, the rental library is your best bet.(This is the first of a series of articles abetu the library system,and the problems of the E-ll book-service in particular.)W; REINSTATE THE BENCHrAY back when there was a Sleepy Hollow in the place wherethe Theology buildings are rapidly being completed, there wasalso a Senior bench. Usually some dignified seniors were to be seenthere, with a marked air of prestige and superiority.Now supriority is a senior’s prerogative, and it should be possiblefor him to sit on his class bench and show himself to any who happento pass. Therefore it would be indeed an excellent act for some oneto remove it from the corner of Cobb where it has been dumped likeso much junk, and to place it in a more prominent spot. Perhapsthe grassy spot between the chapel and Classics would do.seniors must be allowed their dignity. theOUR PIONEER FRESHMENTNOES the present Freshman class lack spirit?The fact that eighty-one men, members of the first year class,were eligible for initiation into the Green Cap club last night showsplainly their enthusiasm.These members of the organization, under the leadership of abledirectors, are launching into the University an honorary society whichwill consist of only those men in the Freshman class who comply withthe requirements laid down by the association. From this group willbe chosen executives and leaders of succeeding classes.Last night these men elected officers to lead them in their initialyear. Last night these men exchanged for their green ribbons, em-ok Membership which will become the standard badge for theCap club.biGr 1 to us, as well as the inconvenience alate l’eturn of books causes otherstudents, they would solemnly vowto bring books back at the appointedtime!” and deliver.

As a craftsman—a worker who usesbrains—he is well worth his daily wage. But as acommon laborer, matching brawn against motor¬ized power, he is an expensive luxury.In most long-establishedindustries the GeneralElectric Company hasbrought about importantchangesmakmgfoi betterproducts with minimumh uman labor ami expense.And in many new indus¬tries the G-E engineershave played a piominentpart from the very begin¬ning. With a fifty-horsepower motor, for instance, oneman can do the work cf 400 common laborers. Heis paid far more for his brains than his brawn.The great need of this and future generations isfor men who can plan and direct. There is amplemotorized machinery for all requirements of pro¬duction and construction.

An jabundance of fine material can befound in the school but because ofisome complication of the higher-ups;there is no team. It seems that theUniversity authorities have neglectedto authorize it, so everything is tiedup.Maroon Splashes Dr. Chamberlain is confident thathe can form a team this year thatranks with the best. TlA* coach him¬self is certainly of the best, and hestates that he knows just where tofind his men. So—if permission isforthcoming and if it comes in timethe Universty will he represented bya crack aggregation. With the winter season rapidly ap¬proaching the Maroon track teamturned out for the first time Monday.Although there are several places tobe filled due to the graduation ofRussell. McFarland, Freida andBourke the prospects are excellentand a great team is probable.Five Letter Men BackOf the letter men who are backCaptain Cusack is perhaps the best.He won the conference half mile lastyear and should be able to repeat thisyear. He is also a miler. John Spencea quarter miler also looks good asdoes Bert McKinney speed merchantand hurdler. Kernwein who is anatural 220 man will perform in thequarter as his distance is not run inthe indoor season . He should be agreat point getter for the Maroons.Hobscheid is a good man in theweights and it has also been an¬nounced that Bub Henderson, gridcaptain, will attempt to put the shot.Jack Cusack PromisingThere are several men from lastyear’s frosh team who are out andwho make good varsity material.Jack Cusack looks promising in thedistance runs. In the half mile thereare Den Kelso and Stewart Spense.Weddel and Metzenburg are showingtheir skill in the hurdles.The indoor season will begin some¬time soon after the first of the yearand end with the annual indoor con¬ference meet. At the present theMaroon prospects are among the bestof the conference.K. Mygdal, star breaststroker ofthe Varsity tank men, will havethings his own way this season in hisevent. The most dangerous breast- jstroke men of the conference have igraduated and the men replacing .them are far below Mygdal’s caliber, jThe sophomore swimmer has plenty jhigh school experience on which to'rely and shows promise of capturing jfirst place at the majority of themeets. Twelve challenges from the east,the north, the south, the west, arepigeon-holed in his desk—unanswer¬ed. “How can we answer challengesif we have no team,’’ says Chamber¬lain. Last year’s crew’ of sharp-shoot¬ers is practically intact. Their sched¬ule held eight contests and they wonevery one. So from all indicationsthe beginning of the spring quarterwill find a championship Chicago rifleteam in the field. LEARN TO DANCE NOW.TERESA DOLAN DANCINGSCHOOL1208 E. 63 rd ,yt- Nr.

The railroads came into being September27, 1825, just when the industrial revolution broughtalxmt by the introduction of steam power was demandingspeed and capacity in the assembly materials and distribu¬tion of products. Because the railroads filled this press¬ing need—and filled it well—they grew remarkably.Within a century the world’s mileage of railway lineincraesed from the original twenty-five to more than700,000. Today there are enough miles of line to circlethe earth at the equator nearly thirty times. There isapproximately one mile of line for every eighty squaremiles of the land area of the globe or for every 2,400members of the human race.This hundred-year expansion in mileage of tha rail¬roads has been paralleled by vast improvements in thecapacity and comfort of their equipment. Only three-quarters of a century ago, for example, freight cars had acapacity of about twelve tons. The track was built ofiron and small crossties, and in many cases it was laidon the bare earth, without ballast or other foundation.Couplings were made with link and pin, and brakes wereset by hand. Passenger trains consisted of small uncom¬fortable coaches, lighted by oil lamps, heated by stovesand drawn by small locomotives. Schedules were de¬parted from frequently.Today freight cars carry upward of fifty tons, and amodern freight locomotive is capable of pulling eighty ormore loaded freight cars with ease. Heavy steel rail andstone ballast have taken the place of the “two streaks ofdust” of the early railroads. Automatic signals protecttravelers and employes. Air-brakes put trains, underabsolute control. A modern passenger train can be ahome or more than a home on wheels—with porch, parlor,library, bedroom, dining room, kitchen, bathroom, office,barber shop and elothes-pressing establishment, the wholeassembly of conveniences pulled along, electrically lightedand steam heated by a modern power plant of its own.Schedules are maintained with remarkable exactness.Inasmuch as the trend of railway development in thesecond century seems likely to differ from that which wasfollowed in the first, a distinction should be kept in mindbetw'een miles of line and miles of track. Miles of line,such as the figures above refer to, consist of only the firstmain track of the railroads. Supplementary to these andincluded with them in the general description of miles oftrack are the second, third and fourth or more tracks,sidings, team tracks, industry tracks, and so on—all of theincidental trackage necessary to successful railway opera¬tion. In the United States the ratio of miles of line tomiles of track is approximately as five is to eight. Onanything like a comparable basis, therefore, the mileageof railway track the world over would be in excess of amillion miles.The first century of the railroads was marked by apioneering spirit which caused miles of line to increaserapidly as expansion into new territory was demanded.With a few notable exceptions, this need for expansionof line no longer exists, and the railroads enter theirsecond century engaged primarily in building a plant forimproved service* upon the foundation their first centurylaid out. Today they are engaged primarily in buildingn»w rniUs of track instead .of new miles of line. Theold railwav problem of expansion into new territory hasbeen succeeded by a problem of cxnar.sion in capacitywithin the territory already served, and the railroads aremeeting tbnt problem just as courageously today as theydid the earlier problem of nuking tint new line to keeppace with the advance of frontiers.Constructive criticism and suggestions are invited.C.
