Wilkins ConfirmsPhysicians’ Reportin Own StatementFor the first time since the day ofDean Wilkins’ confinement at thePresbyterian hospital a representa¬tive of the student body has been per-mitted to visit with the dean. Here¬tofore all reports concerning DeanWilkins’ condition have been issuedby Drs. James and Kretschmer, whowere constantly in attendance to him,but yesterday a Daily Maroon re¬porter was accorded the privilege ofhearing welcome news from the Deanhimself.“I shall leave the hospital Fridayto go home,” he said briefly, “that isall, I guess, for the present.” Thisconversation confirms the report re¬ceived Monday from Dr. James.ELECT HEAD OFWOMEN’S D0ARDChoose Harriett Keeney ToLead Governing BodyHarriett Keeney was elected chair¬man oi the Board of Women.--’ Orunn-izations for the coming year, it wasannounced last night at a dinner giv¬en by the Board. Members of the ex¬ecutive councils of the three women’sorganizations were present. MissKeeney, who is a representative ofFederation, has been active on theBoard for two years.A discussion around the fire placein the Y. VV. C. A. room of Ida Noyeshall followed the dinner. Finances ofthe different groups comprising theBoard were discussed. According toLucy Lanion, retiring chairman of theBoard, there is a definite need for uni¬fication on matters of finance, and ofa plan whose outcome will be unity.New needs of the Board for the com¬ing year and a scheme of closer co¬operation were also discussed.SHOW DISEASES INMICE AS HEREDITARYIN MICROPHONE TALKRelating in detail the methods bywhich she conducted tests on 50,00umice and arrived at the conclusionthat the tendency to contract canceris hereditary, Miss Maud Slye of theUniversity biological laboratoriesgave the radio audience an insightinto scientific procedure in a talk lastnight from The Daily News station,WMAQ.Explaining the Mendelian theory ofheredity, which is generally acceptedby scientists, Miss Slye told how shefirst bred mice to develop purestrains. Some of the mice producedwere resistent to cancer, while otherswere susceptible.By crossing mice of these twotypes, the investigator was able todetermine how the tendency to can¬cer was inherited. Her results, sheasserted, show that the trait may liedormant in an individual for a gen¬eration and still appear in his child¬ren.Another important result of herwork is a practical elimination of thegerm theory for the origin of cancer.MIRROR ORCHESTRA MEETAll women wishing to be in theorchestra for Mirror will meet withtheir instruments tomorrow at 3:30in the theater of Ida Noyes hall. MORE CAMPUSCLUBS JOIN INACTIVITY WEEK“Every Student a Club Mem¬ber/' Is Slogan ofDriveOpen clubs on campus are still en¬gaged in the campaign for new mem¬bers.Eta Sigma Phi, undergraduateclassical club, has not been very muchconcerned with this campaign, forunder its rules all candidates mustpast certain tests before being ad¬mitted to membership.Suggestion of DeanThis campaign is the indirect re¬sult of a suggestion of Dean Wilkinsto Dean Boucher that somethingshould be done to stimulate studentinterest in campus open clubs. Al¬though this week is the official cam¬paign period, many events and pro¬grams will carry over into the nextfew weeks. The campaign was or¬ganized and started at a dinner givento the presidents and major officersof all the clubs last Thursday eve¬ning.Student BureauGives First AidFor Poor MenAre college students supplied withtoo much money? Not at the Univer¬sity, for seventy per cent of the stu¬dents earn some part of the moneythat is spent on their education.Erroneous conceptions about the fin¬ancial condition of students are duemostly to reporters’ passion for mak¬ing a good story.Various types of positions may besecured by students if they are quali¬fied for them, and can find the time.Positions as chauffeurs, nternret-ers, desk-clerks, typists, and tutorsare examples of this part-time em¬ployment.Noteworthy cases of those whofound unusual and educational em¬ployment are recorded at the employ¬ment bureau. One student found parttime work on the air mail line, andused to fly low over Hyde Park tolet his wife know’ how soon she shouldhave dinner ready. Another travel¬led over the country as a conductoron a Pullman during his vacations.Still another found a position as in¬terpreter and reader for a business‘firm which had a great deal of for¬eign correspondence.WINTER NUMBER OFFORGE APPEARS ONCAMPUS TOMORROWPoetry of Edward Sapir, associateprofessor in the department of an¬thropology, will be included in the is¬sue of the Forge, the University jour¬nal of verse, which will appear to¬morrow. “Since the amalgamationof the Circle and Phoenix,” saidGeorge Dillon, president of the Poetryclub, under whose auspices the maga¬zine is published, “the Forge is theonly literary publication on campus,and as such deserves the support ofeveryone.”Women desiring to sell the maga¬zine have been requested to meet inthe Bookstore tomorrow morning at7:45. University Prof.Seeks Cure forCancer in TestsLike father, like son.Once again the old adage ringstrue, this time in the halls of KentChemical laboratory where Prof. Wil¬liam Draper Harkins and his 20-yearold son, Harry, have undertaken anexperiment that may give to theworld a cure for nephritis, besidesthrowing light upon cancer — themystery disease of humankind.With the hope of determining thesurface tension of human blood takenfrom diseased bodies, Dr. Harkins,adviser to the Department of Chem¬istry has begun experimentation thatwill run into months, if not years.Harry, who is a graduate student,has charge of most of the laboratorywork, while his father is directing thetechnical and theoretical procedure.“Our work along this line is notthe first of its kind,” declared theelder Harkins, “but it has never beendealt with exclusively enough tobenefit mankind.“Definite results of our calcula¬tions will merely give us an addi¬tional problem: to find a quantitythat if injected into the patient’sbodv will raise or lower the surfacetension, as the case may demand, toreach normalcy.”Research with blood affected bynephritis, or kidney trouble, has al¬ready been made, according to the sa¬vant, by Dr. E. C. Klausen of theUniversity of Buffalo, but no practi¬cal benefit has ever been derived fromthe work.I. S. A. SPONSORSOLD-FASHIONED BOXSUPPER TOMORROW. f 1 •Box suppers will be auctioned offat the I.

Thecombination of the old feudal system«and modern industrialism make pos¬sible the conditions which prevailthere, and already the competitionfrom this source has been reflectedin inactivity in the textile industry ofthe United States and England, MissStrong declared.Industry in China at present is notsubject to Chinese law, and is beyondthe control of other ’ nations, accord¬ing to Miss Strong, who averred thelaws are made and executed by smallgroups of foreigners seeking personalgain, and endangering high standardsin the United States and other nations.Russia is exerting a powerful in¬fluence in China by a sympathetic at¬titude, the speaker said, hut shefrowned upon the idea that China wil'he absorbed by Russia.

Contributors mustsign their full names to communications, but publication will, uponrequest, be anonymous.Member of the Western Conference Press AssociationTHE STAFFAllen Heald, EditorMilton Kauffman, Managing EditorThomas R. Mulroy, Business ManagerDIPLOMAS: \ BIT OF HISTORYONE account, published Wednesday of a pro¬posal to stop the giving of actual diplomasat convocation, has moved an officer of the Uni¬versity to comment thus on the proposal:To the editor:I am somewhat perplexed and also amused at theeditorial of Feb. 3 “How Will You Have Your SheepSkin?” I am at a loss to know why the question oftechnique concerning this matter should have arisen.What would be the “greater convenience” if the Presi¬dent handed a dummy to each candidate “to be ex¬changed for a diploma later”? It certainly would not beas convenient for the Recorder’s Office and I cannot seehow it would be as convenient for the candidates. As towhether or not there should be any diploma at all, thatis another question.There is a bit of history connected with this subjectwhich may be of interest. The President is not follow¬ing a “tradition” in giving to each candidate his owndiploma. He is following a carefully worked out prac¬tice. This practice like many other improvements ineducational methods is due to William Rainey Harper,the first President of the University. Many years agohe said to the writer, “We ought to arrange some wayto give each candidate his own diploma so that therewould be no need of exchanging after the degrees areconferred. Work out a plan.” The result was thatafter a few experiments the present plan was evolvedand has been in successful operation ever since. Thediplomas are arranged in alphabetical order for eachgroup and are put in cloth rolls provided with loops sothat each diploma can be pulled out promptly as thecandidate approaches the President’s chair. Correspond¬ing lists have been handed to the Head Marshal, who dis¬tributes them among his assistants, in order that thecandidates may be lined up in such a way that whenthey take their seats and from there ascend the plat¬form they will come in the same order in which thediplomas are already arranged. Just after the last rollcall the Head Marshal sends a report to me on the stageand if there are any absentees their diplomas are passedby in the distributing. Again and again we have hadcompliments from visitors from other institutions onthe smoothness of the whole proceeding and interestedinquiries as to how we do it. Repeatedly has it occurredthat in some of our largest convocations things havegone through without a single slip of any kind. This isdue to the thoughtfulness of President Harper, for whomno item was too small to be overlooked and no great de¬velopment too vast to be beyond his prophetic vision.Yours sincerely,F. J. Gurney,Assistant Recorder.DO IT NOWNOW that registration is approaching, the timeis ripe to think of sequences. These are sup¬posed to be made out by the end of the sopho¬more year, but too often they are neglected. Asa consequence, a senior is frequently taking threecourses for his major at the last moment, or isfeverishly trying to complete a necessary unit bycorrespondence.The Senior year should be one of additionalachievement beyond the requirement of a majoror minor, or it should offer an opportunity formuch-desired electives. But, above all, it should jnot be crowded with necessary courses; there (WANTED—Girls to take agencyfor smocks. Good commission. Wei-ler and Co.; Room 1009-39 So.

Let him decide what he wants tospecialize in; and begin taking the course now.Thus he will avoid the oppression so often feltby the senior. Certain courses are not offeredevery quarter, or even every year, and in orderto make these available, the student should havehis work definitely planned out. If his sequenceis drudgery, he can finish that drudgery early,and have some time free for electives. Do it now.SOCIAL SPHERE''I'HERE perhaps has not been an equal to theexcitement pervading the campus today, theday of the President’s reception. One thousandundergraduates are planning to attend the func¬tion, which has long been spoken of as one ofthe few social presentations of the season.This reception, held for President and Mrs.Max Mason, will occur this evening at seven-thirtyin Mandel Hall and Hutchinson Commons. It isto be formally opened by an address delivered bythe President and one delivered by the Vice-President, Mr. Woodward, in Mandel Hall. Afterthis opening the guests will go to HutchinsonCommons where they will be received by thePresident and Mrs. Mason, Vice-President andMrs. Woodward, Mr. and Mrs. Robert V. Mer¬rill, and Charles Anderson, president of the Un¬dergraduate council.This reception marks so significant a factor inour sphere because of the very nature of its pur¬pose, to introduce the undergraduate students tothe President and the newly appointed Vice-President; its significance is also marked by thefact that it is an original affair, this marking thefirst reception of its kind for the University.Preceding this reception on Wednesday thegirl’s dormitories have planned to present as isthe custom in every Winter Quarter an Inter-HallVaudeville in Ida Noyes theatre at three-thirty.Each Dormitory presents a stunt, skit, or play astheir fancy chooses. Kathleen Brimrose is man¬aging the production for this year.VOX POPThe Daily Maroon,Dear Sirs:Who is responsible for the vile publicity ac¬corded the triple-A students of last quarter? Hehas been guilty of laying bare confidential mat¬ters. Were those people listed, consulted, andasked beforehand if they wanted their grades be¬trayed all over the campus? They were not. Doyou publish the list of F or E students? It is notless of a stigma to be known as an A student thanan E student.Moreover, every one knows that grades are notuniform: one instructor's A is another’s B; thatfor work one loves one may get an A; that onedoesn’t necessarily get an A every quarter. Infact, in this last connection it is not too much toassume that many, though they are now classedas A students may never before have receivedthree A s, though they may have done the samecaliber of work.Was this publicity intended to impress some¬one? The students themselves? What folly toawaken in them a bloated spirit of intellectualsuperiority when perhaps they are of only averageintelligence (it’s possible) 1If you don’t do another thing, gentlemen of theMaroon, please give this to him who has betrayedconfidential records.Irately yours,A.

WithMcDonough still ailing with a twistedankle and Hoerger not yet fully re¬covered from a slight illness, theMaroon defense suffers considerably.Now La Ion Farwell, the former HydePark star and reserve guard, is con¬valescing from a few stitches in hisjaw which were necessary as a resultof colliding with Wallie Marks’ elbowduring scrimmage last Monday night.Need SubsThat the Maroons are in need ofcapable reserves should any of theMaroons be eliminated via the foulroute is obvious. Last Saturdaynight, against the Buckeyes, withAlyea out of the fray after fourfouls, the team was in an embarras¬sing dilemna. For this reason Nor-gren is devoting much energy towardpolishing off the playing of the sec¬ond team. Games with the Badgersare always bitterly contested andfouls may early eliminate the bestplayers of both teams so that theburden will fall on the backs of thereserves.Meanwell's cagers come here aftera layoff of nearly three weeks, andaccording to all reports from Madi¬son, they have reached peak form.Behr, one of the highest scorers ofthe Big Ten is a “bear” on the flooras well as in shooting. His diminu¬tive teammate Andrews is a streakof greased lightning and a tiger roll¬ed into one.Sophs GoodThe sophomores of Meanwell’s creware so good that even Capt. Brooks fis a sub. Hotchkiss plays forward or ‘center. The guards Powell, Merkle, |and Bamum are three husky guards Ithat may or may not make the shoot- Iing of the Maroons any poorer. Onthe whole, it looks like a tough week¬end for the Norgrenites. But thensinco the locals beat them decisivelyon their own floor, they should logic¬ally win with the advantage of thehome floor. But, unfortunately bas¬ketball isn't logical, as has been re¬peatedly demonstrated throughoutthe present season.
