Ap¬peals are made to individual and tofamily sentiments. Father andmother are put on the defensive tosavp helpless children from life’s pit-falls.”GARIBALDI TAKESFLING AT CAMPUSCURRICULUM HERELinn Garibaldi, the grand-nephewof the famous Italian general, waspledged Chi Psi yesterday.Garibaldi comes from Charlotte, N.Carolina and attended Porter MilitarySchool at Charleston, where heachieved the rank of Senior Captain,the equivalent of Major.

Undergrad CouncilTo Discuss TocquesWhether students will againwear tocques during the winter todistinguish their rank and classi¬fication at the University will bedecided Wednesday at the firstmeetirtlr of the Undergraduatecouncil.The custom of wearing thesetocques of different colors whichhas been in vogue for severalyears was not enforced last yearand consequently the winter capsdid not appear.If the Council should decide totake up the custom again thisyear, it will establish a means ofenforcing its edict. The caps willthen be put on sale by the Uni¬versity book store and all studentswill be expected to purchase themand wear them throughout thequarter.Y. ESTABLISHESNEW BULLETINAssociation To PromotePublicity on CampusIn answer to the attitude of menof the University that the Y. M. C. A.has no direct and adequate meansfor publishing accounts of its activi¬ties, a Y. Bulletin has been estab¬lished which will appear regularlythroughout the year.Members of the publicity commit¬tee of both the first and second cab¬inets of the organization are co-ope¬rating in preparing the bulletin. Itis to be distributed among fraternityhouses, men’s dormitories, the Rey¬nolds club, and bulletin boards.The Y. bulletin contains a programof events which have been plannedand are to be carried out at once.Enumerate ActivitiesThe first Y. M. C. A. open housefor 1926 will be held Thursday, Jan.7, from 4 to 6 in the south lounge ofthe Reynolds club. All men of theUniversity are welcome ot attend andmeet fellow-students.“Why I believe” is the title of aseries of discussions to be startedWednesday, Jan. 13 at 4:30, in roomA of the Reynolds club. They willbe held every Wednesday throughoutthe quarter. A new leader and a dif¬ferent subject of believe will appearat each meeting.Campus groups, fraternities, anddormitories will consider “Prohibi¬tion, will it work?” as the topic forthe discussion groups for the quarter.Whitman HailedGerman Gracchus“Walt Whitman is leading theAmericanization of Europe and inGermany his ‘Leaves of Grass’ is ac¬cepted as the ‘Bible of Democracy,’ ”Anna Jacobson of the Hunter collegefaculty asserted in speaking at agroup meeting of the Modern Langu¬age Association of America, in ses¬sion at the University last week.A great wave of Whitman enthu¬siasm has swept over Europe and es¬pecially Germany since the war, ac¬cording to Miss Jacboson, and Ger¬man poets are immitating the Amer¬ican in both style and subject. Com¬ments filled with fervor for Whitman,made by German writers and criticswere read by the speaker.Many Germans see in the famous“Fourteen Points’’ of the late Presi¬dent Woodrow Wilson, the voice ofWhitman, speaking for the cause ofliberty throughout the world, MissJacobson asserted. jO’Hara DefendsStudent AttitudeToward StudiesDefending the student attitude to¬ward scholarship which was recentlyflayed by Prof. W. J. Newlin of Am¬herst college, Frank Hurburt O’Hara,director of student activities of theUniversity declared today that Prof.Newlin’s statements applied to thefew and not to the many.“Sometimes there are students whoover-participate in activities and stu¬dents who engage in activities merelyto be in them and not because of anydefinite interest in the work itself.However there is a tendency at theUniversity to concentrate on a cer¬tain one or two activities, as exempli¬fied this quarter by the transferenceof his interests from three and one-half years of intercollegiate footballto concentration on the editorial sideof the Circle on the part of AustinI McCarty.”Mr. O’Hara refused to comment onProf. Newlin’s attack on football.The Amherst man, speaking on“Educational Relations with Alumni”before the convention of the Ameri¬can Association of University Profes¬sors, held at the University last week,denounced colleges as “football fac¬tories.”“When a man wins scholastic dis¬tinction he receives a Phi Beta Kappakey for which he himself pays, butthe man who wins distinction on thefootball field is given a gold football,becomes the social lion of the uni¬versity, and, if he happens to be a“Red’’ Grange, his financial successis assured.”In reply to Prof. Newlin’s declara¬tion that scholastic achievement issacrificed to activities, Mr. O’Harastated, “The question of relating cur¬ricular to extra-curricular activitiesis one to which colleges are givingconstant attention. The tendency tolink activities with classroom workhere at the University is indicatedby statistics of last year which showthat students in publications anddramatic work have an average ofvery respectable standing.”W. A. A. TO SPONSORCAMPUS CONTEST FORNEW CHICAGO SONGSW. A. A. will sponsor a college songcontest to be held Thursday, Jan. 14,in the gymnasium of Ida Noyes hall.The purpose of the contest is to com¬pose a peppy and catchy verse that cantake its place with the other Universitysongs. The need of another song haslong been felt, by the students, accord¬ing to Eleanor Fish, president of W.A. A., and it is hoped that the contestwill result in the production of a goodsong.The contest will be open to everybody,the general public included, and the win¬ner will be awarded a $5 gold piece. Inorder to prevent discrimination and anypartiality whatever, it has been decidedthat all contributions must have thename and address of the writer on thereverse side of the song sheet. No.special type of song has been specified;any college song will be eligible forcompetition. The only specification re¬quired is that the verse must be adapt¬able to music. It need not be originalor new, although those that are of thiskind will probably receive greater at¬tention and consideration, according toMiss Fish. Judges will be announcedlater.Mrs. Charles Robbins is the insti¬gator of the contest idea. She declaredthat the women of the University espe¬cially need more opportunities to gettogether and practice college songs. MAGIC THRIVESIN RELIGION OFMODERN TIMESDr. Roest, Anthropologist,Says Magic Art Is NotDisappearingA survey of the modern and primi¬tive significance of magic, producing anew definition of “white magic,” hasbeen made by Dr. Pieter Roest, in thedepartment of anthropology at the Uni¬versity.Pointing out that “magic is the artof achieving certain desired results bymeans of an established series of wordsor acts believed to owe their efficiencyto super-physical power,” Dr. Roest de¬clares that magic is certainly not dis¬appearing with the advance of moderncivilization.Flourishes in Religion“It flourishes luxuriantly in our or¬ganized religion,’’ he states, “and whileits primitive interpretation is losingground among us, theology firmly clingsto its efficiency whether intelligible ornot, and modern occultists give it anexplanation which outdoes even sciencein rationalization.”“The practical aid of white magicis not essentially different in primitivesociety from that practiced in our owncivilization. On the theoretical sideti e differences are greater, yet the mostfundamental beliefs—in super-physicialpower, and in an invisible world inwhich the spiritual beings wield thispower—are everywhere the same. Uni¬versal is also the distinction of thebeneficent from maleficent magic, al¬though the churches apply the name‘magic’ only to the latter.”Symphony ConcertHeld Today; GiveBalanced ProgramThe Chicago Symphony Orchestrawill hold its concert today at 4:15in Mandel hall. All patrons who havetickets are urged to attend, but iffor any reason this is impossible, itwill be appreciated if they will ex¬tend to friends the use of their tic¬kets or submit them to the office ofthe association to be sold again.Program1. Prelude to “Haensel and Gretel”Engelbert Humperdinck(1854-1921)Humperdinck, who, in his studentdays, seems to have won at least halfof all the musical scholarships ofEurope, was one of those modernGerman composers somewhat con¬temptuously labeled “post-Wagner-ian.” Of all of Humperdinck’s works“Haensel and Gretel” is by far thebest known. It is a fairy opera basedon a German fairy tale, and its musicis composed largely of German folksongs.Humperdinck’s last important com¬position was the musical score of“The Miracle,” shortly to be playedhere.2. Suite “Sheherezade”(Continued on page 4)FRANKENSTEIN GIVESCLARINET PROGRAM— *Alfred V. Frankenstein, a sttfdentat the University, will give a demon¬stration of the clarinet and the bassclarinet at the concert-lecture today at3:15 in Mitchell Tower.Frankenstein, who is music critic forThe Daily Maroon, is a clarinetist withthe Civic Orchestra of Chicago. His“Syncopating Saxophones,” recentlypublished treatise on modern jazz haswon commendation from prominentcritics. Freshmen RivalHeinz in Variety;57 of 'em EnterFifty-seven men and women,equipped with class tickets, pamph¬lets, books, and what not, were ob¬served yesterday seeking their wayamong the unfamiliar buildings.These fifty-seven were the new en¬tering freshmen, coming in the wakeof over nine hundred registered forthe autumn quarter.Owing to the smallness of thenumber matriculating, no elaborateplans or systems were used to receivethe newcomers formally. Signs ap¬peared on the campus, directing thenew students to the various buildings.Very little trouble was encounteredin either Examiner’s or Recorder’soffice. The Information and Cashier’soffices were kept busy all day.ANNUAL SALESDRIVEOPENEDNew Partial Payment PlanFor YearbookThe second Cap and Gown salesdrive of the current year began yes¬terday, according to John Hopkins,business manager of the annual. Theprice for this quarter will be $4.50,which will be payable in two install¬ments, one dollar down and the bal¬ance when the book is delivered. Thispartial payment plan is new this yearand is expected to increase the salesconsiderably.All the campus women’s clubs haveentered a contest for the best sellingrecord of the quarter. Almost allclub members are now authorized tosell subscriptions, and the rivalry be¬tween the clubs is keen. The sub¬scriptions are on sale in the cloak¬room of Ida Noyes, the checkroomof the Reynolds club, and at the Capand Gown office. Any member of thestaff can furnish information as tosubscriptions.According to Hopkins, the editorialwork of the Cap and Gown is beingdone thoroughly, and as rapidly as isconsistent with care. The staff thinksthat this year’s book will live up tothe standard set by the volumes ofprevious years.“If the University is to win the cupfor which Northwestern and Illinoisare also competing, every member ofthe undergraduate body must backthe Cap and Gown staff by buyinghis or her copy of the annual,” saidHopkini.Sun Spots NowVisible to EyeSpots on the sun, one group about112,000 miles long, and the otherabout 85,000 are today visible to thenaked eye, through a smoked glass,Prof. Edwin B. Frost, director of theYerkes observatory of the Universityreports. The same groups were vis¬ible around Thanksgiving time, thesun having made one rotation in themeantime.The phenomenon is accompaniedby the northern lights, flashes fromthe aurora having been observed atthe Yerkes observatory. Daily ap¬pearances of the northern lights, veryearly in the morning, are reported byProf. Frost. He says that there havebeen more and larger sun spots inthe last two months than have beenexpected, as it is only two years sincethe minimum, when they were scarceand small. No appreciable effect onthe weather has yet been recognizedwith definiteness at the observatory. | SERIOUS TONEOF UNIVERSITYCITEDJY PRES.Pres. Mason Interviewed ByReporter On Workof Quarter“My most prominent impression hasbeen of the underlying seriousness oftone of the University and its studentbody. I don’t mean by this solemnity,but those of the students whom I havemet seem to he unusually alive to thereal value of University training. I re¬gret that my acquaintance with the stu¬dent body and the work of the quad¬rangles is still extremely inadequate.”Thus spoke President Mason of theUniversity as he reviewed his experi¬ences during his first quarter. After abusy day of conferences about all sortsof things the reporter caught him ashe was leaving the loop offices of theUniversity Development Committee.Work Under Handicap“I feel that the things which the Uni¬versity has been working toward are go¬ing to have a profound influence in thefuture. The remarkable work of theUniversity has in many cases been doneunder extreme handicaps. We all aremost keenly alive to the fact that thecoming year will give us an answer oneway or another to the question of in¬creased endowment, which is absolutelyvitai to the maintenance of the Chicagostandard of excellence.”Wants to Know StudentsPresident Mason, when asked for hisimpression of the student body, said:“When the rush of this campaign isover I want to know more of the stu¬dents—where they live and how—I wantto enjoy them—to know something oftheir organization. I have a strongfeeling that the enormous benefits ofcollege life lie in the group activities ofthe undergraduate body. I look forwardwith intense pleasure to the time whenI will know more of the students per¬sonally.”“MR. PIM PASSES BY”PRESENTED TO CLUBBY CAMPUS PLAYERS“Mr. Pirn Passes By,” the comedythat proved so popular on the campusof the University, will be presentedtomorrow morning at 10:30 in theFine Arts building under the auspicesof the University Woman’s club.

"You see, they only gave me anumber. Nineteen-twenty-six, I believe.”“Ah, yes,” we said. “We’ve heard of you.”He was pleased. “Everybody knows me," he cried. ‘ You know,they treat me splendidly here.

The Maroons were handicappedby he fact that Hoerger, McConnel,and Macklind were unable to play be¬cause of the trip to Japan with thebaseball team.Maroons Nosed OutAmes came here Dec. 30 and nosedout the Maroons 22 to 21 in one of themost thrilling contests seen on Bartlettfloor in years. I long shot in the finalsecond of play decided the closelycontested tilt. The Maroons were lead¬ing 20 to 16 with three minutes ofplay when the Iowa State forwardspeppered the basket with lucky longshots, and annexed a victory.Jan. -k the powerful Drake teamcame here and handed Xorgren’s pro¬teges their third straight setback tothe tune of 27 to 20. The Bulldogs,conquerors of Illinois, have one of thespeediest and most polished teams inthe west.Led by Chuck F.verctt, who CoachRuby of Illinois has declared to he oneof the best basketball players he hasever seen, the lowans ran up a totalof 16 points in the first while theMaroons were held to a lone basket.The half ended 16 to 4.Locals RallyThe second half was an entirely dif¬ferent story. The Maroons got goingand with Alyea and Zimmerman sink¬ing long shots and Wallie Marks andSackett contributtug spectacular one-handed shots the Maroons almost out¬stripped their rivals, but the heavyscore against them was to big to over¬come. The Maroons showed a skillfulhandling of the ball and a tighterdefehse in the second half.Saturday, Sam Barry’s highly-toutedHawkeye five will meet the Maroonsin the first conference game for bothteams at Bartlett Gym. The Hawkeyeshave lost but one practice tilt thus farand that to Notre Dame by one point.Iowa boasts a veteran team and onpast performances have a decided edgeon the Midwayites. It is possiblethat George iLott, who is ineligible,may become eligible in time for theIowa tilt.Lott May PlayTf the tennis star will not be able toplay, Norgren will undoubtedly startthe same team that opened againstDrake, which includes Alyea at center,Marks and Zimmerman at the for¬wards, and McDonough and Hoergerthe two husky sophomore stars atthe guards. McDonough is troubledwith a bad foot and an injury to hishand, and if he is unable to play,Marks will shift over to guard withSackett functioning at forward.

That loyalty to the school,and the earnestness with which John¬ny trained the men who have wornthe Maroon during the twenty yearsthat he has been at the University, wonfor him warm spots deep in the heartsof this and many previous generationsof Chicago athletes.Johnny Johnson was hugely inter¬ested in his work: he was hugely in¬terested in tbe welfare of the men whowere under his care; he was as hugelydevoted to the University of Chicago.His studious application to. his jobmade him the best equipped trainerof college athletes in America, and putChicago in the lead in installing mod¬ern training facilities.Johnny was as attentive to the moraland spiritual health of his men as hewas to their physical well being.Johnny was born in Wisconsin neara helf century ago, coming to the Uni¬versity a score of years ago.

N. A. Rimski-Korsakov(1844-1908)Rimski-Korsakov, who, thanks toPaul Whiteman, is known throughoutthe length and breadth of the land a3the composer o'7 “The Song of India,’’wrote “Shehertzade,” a suite illustra¬tive of the Arabian Nights stories, in1888. He gave each movement ofthe suite a title. Those titles are:1. The Sea and Sinbad’s Ship.2. The Young Prince and YoungPrincess.3. The Narrative of the KalendarPrince.4. The Festival et Bagdad. TheSea. The Ship Goes to Pieces on aRock Surmounted by a Bronze Horse.Rimski-Korsakov later withdrewthese titles, so their use here is en¬tirely unofficial. The suite is tied to¬gether by the use of a motto theme,played generally as a cadenza in asolo violin, which signifies Shehere-zade telling her wonderful tales.The first theme of the second move¬ment, the theme of the young princeand young princess, was used in theBlackfrairs’ show of 1921 (“TheMachinations of Max”) in a song ofa serving maid.3. Waltz Triste Jean Sibelius(1865-)The name of Jean Sibelius is notso well known to American audiencesas it should be. Sibelius, probablythe greatest of all Finnish composers,is beyond doubt one of the five lead¬ing composers of the present day.His six symphonies and his manysymphonic poems, (most of whichare based on Finnish sagas) are, inthe words of an English authority:“sometimes weird and wild, some¬times of a mysterious, penetratingsweetness, often majestic, bold, andinfinitely sad.”Sibelius is known best here as the composer of the rhapsody “Finlan¬dia,” the symphonic poem “The Swanof Tuonela,” and this little waltz,which was written for a performanceof a play, “Kuolema,” by Arvid Jaer-nevelt.4. March of the Little Fauns, fromthe Ballet “Cydalise and theSatyr” Gabriel Pierne(18631)Pierne is a pupil of Cesar Franckand Massenet. He has distinguishedhimself as an organist, conductor,and a composer of true French tasteand style, and poetic inspiration.5. Selections from “The Damna¬tion of Faust” .... Hector Berlioz(1803-1869)Hector Berlioz was probably thegreatest musical genius that Franceever had. Berlioz was an habitualupsetter of traditions, an experi¬menter whose experiments producedthe modern orchestra, a writer of gorgeous literary style, and a musi¬cal mind to whom it seemed mostnatural and simple that, when a re¬quiem was to be sung, that it be sungby several thousand voices, accom¬panied by four brass bands, each ina corner of the concert hall, the syn¬chronized performance of the bandsan<L chorus requiring the services ofno less than eight conductors at once.RARE OPPORTUNITYAnyone having a Parker Duofoldpen may have it inspected today atthe University Bookstore.
