COUNCILSEEKS CRITICISMS OFCAMPUS INSTITUTIONSStudent Council Plans Report On University’sShortcomings As Evidenced By CommentsReceived In Chapel Next WeekTHESIS PROVESPAUL’S STENOGKNEWGREGG’SHenry O. Lloyd RevealsThat Apostle Paul HadShorthand WriterThe apostle Paul had a stenog¬rapher who took down his letters inshorthand, a recent examination ofGreek papyri, containing the orig¬inal documents of the New Testa¬ment, shows. A study of the bearingof the Greek papyri on the New Tes¬tament made at the University byHenry O. Lloyd, a graduate student,revealed this fact today.That the writing of shorthand inthose days was a definitely estab¬lished trade with a full apprentice¬ship is further shown in Mr. Lloyd’sthesis. According to a contract of155 A. D., he observes, an ex-magis¬trate of Oxyrhynchus apprenticedhis slave to a short hand writer.Just what forms these writers usedis not clear. It is certain, however, ^the investigators says, that the prin¬ciple of abbreviation in every pos¬sible circumstance was adopted, afact which has complicated the workof modem translators considerably.Stenographers HumanTo errors that often accompanydictation may be attributed manyseeming inconsistencies in the NewTestament, Mr. Lloyd points out.The stenographer or "semiographo”may have been day dreaming or plan¬ning a feast for “that evening” whilehe or she was recording the letter.Affirming that by showing dicta¬tion and shorthand to be prevalent,the papyri have considerably illum¬inated the study of Paul, Mr. Lloydcontinues: “Papyrus discoveries havethrown light upon the form in whichthe New Testament writings were(Continued on page 2)HAROLD VINAL, POETAND PATRON OF ART,TO READ HIS VERSEHarold Vinal, poet and editor of“Voices,” will talk informally andread from his verse Tuesday at 8 inthe Reynold club theater. The read,ing will be held under the auspicesof the Poetry club and tickets havebeen plmed on sale at fifty cents.“Mr. ^inal is in the city on hisfirst lectb-e trip to Chicago,” saidGeorge Dillon, president of the Poet¬ry club. “He has received a greatdeal of attention in the east, notonly because of his distinguished ser¬vices in the behalf of art in generalbut also because of the charm andindividuality of his own poetry. Mr.Vinal is known as one of the moststimulating, witty, and effective lec¬turers in literary circles,” Dillonended.PROF. T.

In the pockets ofhis clothes were the keys to hiscar and fifteen dollars in curren¬cy. When questioned later as towhether he recovered the clothesor not, McCarty answered, “Oh,shut up; I’m sour.”McCarty is not the only manwho has lost valuables in the gym¬nasium. Time and again studentswho are careless about closingtheir lockers retunr to find thattheir property has been disturbed.Inasmuch as this condtion existsand no practical means has beenfound to stop it, Mack, the lockerattendant, advises every patron ofthe gymnasium to put his things inhis locker and to lock it.PHOENIX BOARDADDS TO STAFFAdditions Made to Editorialand Business Depts.Ten undergraduates were added tothe editorial staff, and three to thebusiness staff, of the Phoenix at ameeting of that publication’s govern¬ing board yesterday afternoon.Rainey Bennett, Jane Bruening,Allen Heald, Robert Lauter, VictoriaSmith, Josephine Waters, Irma Selz,Stuart Bradley, Harriet Renick, andLou Frohlich won positions on theart and editorial divisions, whileKenneth Engel, Wilburt Frindley,and William Stevenson have beenadded to the business department.Announcement to all contributorsthat the office hours of the Phoenixboard will be from 3 to 4 every daywas made, and the deadline for thenext issue was decided upon. All ma¬terial for the January Phoenix mustbe in by Thursday, Jan. 14.Details of the “collegiate Ford”contest will be revealed in the forth¬coming issue, and the contest, forwhich prizes will be awarded in theway of inducement, will begin thefollowing month.FRIAR AUTHORS TOWRITE FIRST ACTSProspective authors of Blackfriarbooks are urged by Hamilton Cole¬man, the producer, to write their firstacts and lyrics from their scenariosand to get them ready for judging.He asked that all scenarios be shownto hirtl before detailed work on thefirst act is started.Many are competing for the honorof being the author of the play, Cole¬man declared, but there is yet timeto complete and hand in any yet un¬finished manuscripts. The judgingdate will be announced in an earlyissue of The Daily Maroon. Untilthat time prospective authors andcomposers are asked to apply them¬selves to their work.Plan Informal Teafor Entering WomenEntering women will be enter¬tained at a tea sponsored by Federa¬tion Tuesday from 4 to 6 around thefire-place in the Y.

DRAMATS HOLDFIRST TRYOUTSFOR PLAY FESTShort Plays Comprise Pro¬gram To Be PresentedFor SettlementPlans for the University’s annual“Winter Play Fest” which is giveneach year for the benefit of the Uni¬versity settlement are now beingmade. The program will, as usual,consist of short plays written bystudents, and presented under theauspices of the University Dramaticassociation.This production is the association’sbiggest attempt of the year, accord¬ing to George Bates, president. It istherefore necessary that the studentbody of the university give its heart-est co-operation.Set Tryout DateTryouts for the Play Fest will be¬gin Tuesday at 3:30 and all candi¬dates must be on hand. Accordingto Margaret Joseph, all those inter¬ested in setting and costuming aswell as acting should be present atthis time.To Know. PeopleLive With Them,Dr. Cole AdvisesTo write a book on a country ofwhich one knows only the rudimen¬tary customs is an impossible task,according to Dr. Fay Cooper Cole,associate professor in the depart¬ment of Anthropology.“A person from Mars withoutknowledge of the earth might inter¬pret the most ordinary actions ofpersons here very differently fromthe way he would if he knew all ofthe facts of the case. For instance,the inhabitant of Mars might attenda church on earth, and because thepeople were kneeling, infer when hevisited a gymnasium that it was an¬other church.” So said Dr. Cole aswe approached him for an interview.“That is the reason why we anthrop-oligists live with the persons of acountry, to obtain a better concep¬tion of the conditions under whichthey live.”Mr. Cole has spent some time inAsia and the Philippines obtaining in¬formation for books. He has also col¬lected specimens as illustrations forthe Field Museum of Natural Sci¬ence.CONTINUE NEW SET'OF RADIO LECTURESThat education should be for char¬acter rather than the mere collectionof information and that this is themodern tendency in all scientificteaching is the opinion of Prof. W.W. Charters, of the school of educa¬tion. Consequently he is not sureof the respective merits of the smallcollege and great modern university.This at least is the gist of thelecture which Prof. Charters will de¬liver from Mitchell Tower at 9o’clock next Tuesday night. Prof.Charter’s title will be, “Educationand Personality.”The second of the series of radiolectures which Prof. Percy HolmesBoynton is supervising will be de¬livered next Thursday night. Thelecturer will be Prof. C. E. Merriam,head of the department of politicalscience. This series on “AmericanLife” will be continued for severalmore weeks.

ATTACKSOLD FALLACIESBoynton Discusses Isolationand Manifest Destiny“Out of the first wave of nationalenthusiasm following the AmericanRevolution arose two particular con¬victions which have had a demoral¬izing effect to the present day,’’ as¬serted Trof. J*ercy Holmes Boynton,in a radio lecture last night. “Onefallacy concerns the magnificent iso¬lation of the United States, and theother its manifest destiny which re¬lieves the citizen from responsibilitytoward the government.”Tracing the development of the at¬titude that the affairs of Europe areof no concern in this country, Prof.Boynton asserted that George Wash¬ington’s warning against entanglingalliances was meant to apply to adefinite contemporary political prob¬lem.Despite policies of isolation, Amer¬ica had often become embroiled withEuropean countries, Prof. Boyntonsaid.HOME WORKER SEEKSRECRUITS ON CAMPUSMiss Laura Parker, the executivesupervisor of work among the “farmand cannery migrants” of Delaware,Maryland, and eastern Pennsylvaniawill be a guest of the Y. W. C. A.on Tuesday. Miss Parker wishes tomeet and talk with any campus wom¬en who may be interested in paidsummer work among these people inthe Y. W. office on the second floorin Ida Noyes hall.For the last five years, undergrad¬uates from eastern and middle west¬ern schools have been doing this typeof work.The work which Miss Parker super¬vises is of the home missionary type,in which workers care for and edu¬cates the younger children of the*foreign families who emigrate withthe crop seasons and are engaged inharvesting and canning.Prof. Hering to Talkon ‘Christian Science’“Christian Science and the World’sRedemption,” will be the subject ofa lecture to be delivered under theauspices of the Christian Science So¬ciety by Prof. Hermann S. |fe»ing,C. S. B., of Boston, Mass., Mondayat 4:30 in Mandell hall. ’* /Prof. Hering is a member if fieBoard of Lectureship of The MotherChurch, The First Church of Christ,Scientist in Boston, Mass. When interviewed on the planof the Undergraduate council toquestion the seniors on four years'mpressions and suggestions, Pres-dent Max Mason and Dean ErnestHatch Wilkins, Dean of the Col-’eees, concurred in their beliefthat the project could result in noiarm, and would doubtless be of'reat benefit to the University.They feel that the cooperationvhich is necessary for develop-nent must begin with the studentndv.“Although I have not been informetof the details of this plan,” statedPresident Mason, “any project thattends toward betterment through co¬operation meets with my sympathy.We are all pardners here, and a betterschool can be developed only when thetrustees, faculty, and students worktogether. Sirne the student body isfundamental in the betterment of theUniversity, I heartily endorse anymove for co-operation that the stu¬dents may make.”Supporting President Mason’s atti-tudetude toward the proposed project,Dean Ernest Hatch Wilkins declared,“I see nothing but good in the workwhich the Undergraduate Council isabout to undertake. If any branchof the school needs criticism, and weknow that we have not reached per¬fection, there are none better able toexpress an opinion than those whohave been on campus for four years.”TIME EXTENDED FORSUBMITTING GORDONCONTEST SPEECHESExtension of the time limit untilMonday noon, Jan. 11, for the prep¬aration of orations for the annualAnna A.

His death,however, only served to set aflamethe Filipino revolution, then in its in-.piency, and ultimately led to ifinal overthrow of the Spanish rubn the Orient. When members of the senior classcome to chapel one week from Thurs¬day they will be given an opportun¬ity to express their critical opinionon any department or institution ofthe University and its function. Thisis the plan of the Undergraduatecouncil as presented and suggested byCharles Anderson.College problems will be intim¬ately treated on the slip, which willbe passed among the seniors, by crit¬icisms which will be based on threeyears association with the University.Sort OpinionsAfter the individual opinions h^ebeen collected by the council theywill be sorted departmentally. Thosedealing with the English departmentwill be turned over to its head;those with the school of education tothe head of that department, andso on.Those criticisms which do not havedefinite bearing on anjrju(|jv}di|^l de¬partment will be turned over to twen¬ty student committees appointed bythe council. After all results havebeen examined, digested, and com¬piled, a report will be made by thecouncil which should sound the key¬note of the University’s chief short¬comings, if there are any.Want Comments“The fundamental objective of thescheme,’’ said Charles Anderson, au¬thor of the idea, “is to obtain afrank impressionistic opinion of theUniversity from the senior’s point ofview. The greater the number ofcomments.the more we shall be pleas¬ed. Every bit of criticisms will hecarefully indexed be it constructiveor destructive.”“This will mark a new epoch ofactivity in the annals of the Under¬graduate Council,” said GeorgeWiemer, president of the Juniorclass, and member of the council, lastnight.ANNOUNCE JUDGESFOR SONG CONTESTAnnouncement has been made ofthe three judges for the W.

Its presidentA has roused it to action on his All-For-Chicago project.The plan is this; The council asks the seniors for suggestions. Itasks them what their problems are, what complaints they have, whatwork it ought to undertake. The Better Yet c^finpaign used the samescheme, with success.We have plenty of problems to report, plenty of complaints tothrow into the ballot box next Thursday noon, plenty of knots forthe council to untie. Some of us would like to see changes in thecoaching system. Many of us have fault to find with the coursesin physical culture. The University libraries have their shortcom¬ings. The honor system sometimes fails to work. The activities willget their share of knocks.The All-For-Chicago project will state such problems in a con¬crete form. It will give a picture of our difficulties as we ourselvessee them. It will put the questions direct.The council will have at hand data that councils have not hadbefore. With that material, it can build up a program. CHICAGO ETHICAL SOCIETY"JKJSFSM'’tNSfck"af?T«DMStfrT™lTE» ri'h'-418 S. Michigan Ave.Sundav. Jan. 10th, at *1 a. m.MR. HORACE J.

From 7:15 un¬til 10:15 the three small courts werein constant use, and with severalgames going on at once, accompaniedby the yelling of the spectators andwhistles of the referees, the old gymwas shaking worse than a dance hallcrowded with C harlestoners.However, an interesting scene waspresented with so varied an assembly.There were, for example, all colors ofthe rainbow, to say nothing of all theletters in the Greek Alphabet repre¬sented there on the outfits worn bythe jwarm of athletes. There was ondisplay almost every stive of basket¬ball, as played from coast to coast.There were close games for the spec¬tators who did not care who won. andthere were run-away games for thosewho did care.Good sportsmanship and hard play¬ing characterized every contest, andthe alibies offered by the loosers weregood ones. It was a highly successfulbeginning for what is predicted byGordon Wallace, Intramural man¬ager for basketball, to be one of thebest features on the Intramural pro¬gram.Several teams looked very good intheir play last night, among them theA. T. O’s, Dekes, Phi Gams, Phi Psis,Phi Sigs arjl others, but early gamesdo not indicate very accurately whatthe final rating will be after the menget in condition and the teams gettheir team work perfected. There wereno upsets last evening as there wasno dope to start with. Nobody, noteven the players themselves, knew justwhat there chances were, but now thatthe teams have made their debut andshowed whfl they have, the old dopebucket will soon be put into use.Deke-Alpha DeltSo far the best game of the eveningwas played by the Dekes who copnedfrom the Alpha Delts by a score of 27to 21.

Crimson Editorial Rouses IreOf Some, Approval Of OthersBy Victor RoterusSince the Harvard Crimson’s veryoutspoken and direct article on foot¬ball reform appeared some weeks ago,the leading dailies of the east havehurriedly gone on record as eitherapproving of or opposing the drasticproposals offered by that college or¬gan.The editorial was the result of theyelps of football reform agitators whowere more than usually audible andin evidence during the past year. Un¬like the rumblings of previous yearswhen the attack was aimed at bru-talism, the protests of these untiringadvocators ahd been directed at themenace and evils of professionalismWHAT of IT?tyceoape Hoa.GBW9Ttgg“I have been around here longenough,” writes Maroon Toque, “toappreciate the justice of your remarkson the productivity of the Chicago in¬terscholastics in the way of athletes. 1can. with some stretch of imagination,conjure up the names of some Maroonathletes who were lured into schoolby the strong-arm boys during someone of the interscholastics, but the listis not so long. <>n the other hand,the percentages of prep stars whoeluded the wiles of our most repre¬sentative collegians and went some¬where else to school looms up ratherhugely.“During the holidays I had occasionto talk to one of the boys who was aclassmate of mine in high school, andwho is now attempting. Mr. Zuppkenotwithstanding, to develop into oneof those $100,000 football players atthe University of Illinois. He wastelling me of the Illini freshman squad,and from all accounts it is a whale.The freshman captain this fall, oneI imm of * I win balls.

My friend didnot expect that Mr. Timm’s jerseywould be enshrined in the Illinoistrophy case (a la Grange) upon grad¬uation, but all the same he said thatthe Twin balls Tornado (I am an¬ticipating the Herald-Examiner) willdo until something better turns tip."Memory harks back to a day inMay last spring, that day, to be prices,on which the Stagg National Inter¬scholastic I rack Meet was being held*here for the laudable purpose of broad¬ening the mind of the growing highschool athletes of the nation, strength¬ening the great principles of amateursport in this glorious country, etc.,etc. And, as I recollects one Timm ofTwin Falls, Idaho, was running hith¬er and yon, getting in a dish here, ahurdle there, and generally occupyinghimself to the business of bringinghonor and glory to dear old TwinFalls High.“True, after all that strenuous work,he failed to place in anything, but just(Continued on page 4) and at the commercialism or footballhysteria so prevalent during themonths of October and November.Some of the features included inthe now-famous editorial were:1. That all students who want toplay football be assigned to classteams.2. That all October games be mere¬ly intramural or interclass games.3. That three intercollegiate gamesbe played the following month againstonly such schools that are carryingout a similar program.4. That an endowment be made tosupport these games, thus relievingfootball from paying the entire costof the athletic program.5. That all coaches be also alumni.6. That scouting be prohibited.7. That these should be no generalsale of tickets and only undergradu¬ates and alumni shall be invited to at¬tend the games.8. That unnecessary newspaper pub¬licity and the picking of all-star teamsbe discouraged.The New York Times declared con¬cerning the article: “The remediesproposed strike at the root of the evil.”The New York World said in regardto the proposals: “They are shrewdand they are genuine.” The BostonAmerican, however, treats the discus¬sion lightly: “After all. whaever Har¬vard does, football will still be thegreatest game in the world.” TheProvidence News is cynical: “Weshall not trust very strongly in Har¬vard's leadership of the cause until ai-til after a season when the Cambridgemen shall have defeated Princeton bytwenty and Yale by forty points.”BEGIN CLASSES FORWOMEN FENCERS ONMONDAY AFTERNOONWomen’s fencing classes will beginMonday at 3:30 in the corrective gym¬nasium of Ida Noyes hall. It is an in¬novation for women, as previous tothe winter quarter the art of fencingwas taught only to men.Classes will be held twice a week,on Mondays and Thursdays. All thosewomen who are interested in this sportmust pay the required fee. which isfive dollars for ten lessons, beforeMonday afternoon. The checks shouldbe made payable to Dr. Alvan Hen-nanson and placed in an envelope ad¬dressed to Harriet Ray, representa¬tive of minor sports on the W. A.A. board. They may be left with Mrs.Wheelan in the check-room of IdaNoyes hall.The required costume consists of along-sleeved middy, bloomers, rubber-soled shoes, and old street gloves. Anattempt is being made to interest thewomen of the'University in athleticsby offering sports of an unusual sorts.It is hoped that the results of thiseffort will aid in eliminating the pre-valing idea that "gym" is a necessaryevil.** *<DBK¥ Official CollegeFEATEBNITYJewelryBodges-Pings-NoveltiesWARREN PIPER &CO.31 N.

New Chute StopsMaiming of BooksAt Harper E-l 1R-ll books will have better care,will be rebound less often and will bein better condition generally in con¬sequence of the enlarged chute for thereturn of books which was just com¬pleted, according to Mr. E. A. Henry,head of the Readers’ department ofthe University libraries.The improved return chute was builtto facilitate handling books on thepart both of students and library em¬ployees. With the old return system,no more than about a dozen bookscould be placed in the chute at thesame time, said Mr. Henry. A pass¬ing student, in a lutrry to get hishook back on time, would thrust itagainst the line already filling theopening and this final push would beenough to break the binding of sev¬eral of the books. Some of the smallerand lighter books would fall to thefloor because nothing had been con¬structed to keep them on ‘the table atthe base of the chute.Four times as many books may nowbe accommodated by the remodeledchute. This, said Mr. Henry, meansless harsh treatment for them, and apreservation of the •bindings. A rail¬ing has also been built to preventboojes from falling from the table ifthey have been thrown down with toomuch force. ban heights.Louise Cross Makes AnalysisBy comparison with findings of Eu¬ropean archeologists and study of thevarious types of flint in the collection.Miss Cross has been able to concludethat the University’s collection “showsat least some upper palaeolithic as wellas undoubted lower palaeolithic char¬acteristics,” and that “it is of extremeantiquity.” Moreover, marked similar¬ity has been found between the Egyp¬tian flints and those discovered in Eu¬rope by scholars in Continental fields.The former have characteristics iden¬tical with those of the European Chel-lean, and Moustercian epochs.Miss Cross continues: “In EgyptDr. Breasted has gone over the avail¬able material, and lias published theresults in his articles on ‘Origins ofCivilization’. The same flints were evi¬dently washed down from the heightsand deposited before the Nile beganto fall in its level and to develop fromthe lacarstrinc stage into river withsufficient current for cutting down thepresent river terraces. They are em¬bedded in great numbers in the rockof the upper river terraces, which washard enough in the Eleventh dynasty(2160 to 2000 B. C.), to be excavatedfor tombs.Flints Indicative of Culture“Even if the cutting did not occuruntil the second interglacial period ofEurope—based on prabable relationsbetween the pluvial of Africa and theglacial of Europe—these flints are con¬siderably older, and must antedateany certain dating of European arti-facts.^ELECT EIGHT WOMENTO MAROON STAFF College football lik* ultra-modernwars may be waged in the laboratorywith the aid of test tubes and micro¬scopes, if the highly unique ideas buzz¬ing in the brain of Simon Benson, newUniversity athletic train.er, work outinto facts. Benson, who in additionto his capacities as a guide to Maroonathletes, has the added distinction ofbeing a chemist, plans to work out1some of bis theories in th,. trainingquarters.He is interested mainly in the actionof ultra-violet rays on the human bodyand he intends to find out exactly howthe?- work and why. He intends tostudy the treatment he gives the Ma¬roon warrior with the ultra-violet rayequipment in Bartlett gymnasium andthen report his findings to the chem¬istry laboratory. Wherever the resultshold possibilities of improving the con¬dition of the body, they will lie applied♦o the athlete. Thus both pure scienceand applied science will benefit. Ben¬son points out.VMany of the beneficial effects ofultra-violet rays are known to science,but there is much to be uncovered,”says Benson. “The training quarterswhere individuals are treated dailywith therapeutic light afford an excel¬lent laboratory in which to carry on in¬vestigations. I am interested specifi¬cally in the action of light on food;to what -extent it will produce vita-nili'es and so forth.“If the studies turn out successfully(and all scientific matters are extremely problematical), we shall attempt toapply what we have learned to athletictraining, thereby allowing athletes tobenefit from the theoretical problemsof pure science, and as light ha,s beenshown to have a very pronounced ef¬fect on certain foods, it is obvious thatthe two subjects have a very definiterelationship and that one can supple¬ment the other.”It is believed that Benson is thefirst theoretical scientist to he addedto a university athletic staff.

FROSH HEATEDLYDISCUSS FORCEDM. S. IN FORUM‘Compulsory military training atthe University of Chicago was theproposition which precipitated aheated discussion at a meeting ofthe Freshman Forum in Cobb hallyesterday afternoon. The prepon¬derance of opinion among thosewho spoke was opposed to such asystem.Those who favored military train¬ing advocated it as a defense againstpossible attack, an opinion whichwas opposed by the argument thatsuch prepardness will encouragewar. and that the means to insureagainst future conflicts is to avoidarmaments.Those who spoke generally con¬ceded that there are other nationsin the world with greater arma¬ments than the United States, butthose opposed to military trainingdeclared that this nation is in nodanger of attack, and should not in¬crease its prepardness by compul¬sory training.The discussion wandered from di¬rectly local consideration of thesubject, and centered rather aboutthe proposition of military trainingand prepardness in general.PHI PSIS ARE' GREEK HOSTSSelect RecipientsOf Henry Strong ~Scholarship AwardThree sophomore women have beenelected to the staff of The Daily Ma¬roon as sophomore editors.
