Such a plan is now under con¬struction. All women of the Uni¬versity have been urged to come, asa general opinion on the subject isdesired.A committee, repfresentative ofboth faculty and student body hasbeen at work since last fall on thesubject.“One recognized advantage of theproposed plan,” said Eleanor Rice,chairman of the Federation council,“would be a more equal basis ofchoice. Under the present systemsome women who enter college with¬out connections on campus are neverreached by clubs. Women wouldhave an opportunity to know theclubs, and the clubs would have anopportunity to know the womenthrough two years of independentwork on campus.” ,Election results will be announcedat this meeting, the last to be con¬ducted by the out-going cabinet. TEN CHAIRMENCHOSEN; STARTWORK AT ONCECommittee Heads Meet To¬day To FormulateWorking PlansTen committee chairmen havebeen appointed by Henry Sackett,head of the interscholastic basketballtournament to be held March 30 toApril 3, to handle all the details ofthe meet in cooperation with him.The ten men selected and their re¬spective committees are as follows:James Webster, Housing; James Cu¬sack, Rushing; Charles Cowan, Re¬ception; Edward Noyes, Entertain¬ment; Joe Gubbins, Announcements;Walter G.

Mulroy, Business ManagerMilton Kauffman, Managing EditorAllen Heald, EditorWHEELSCOLLEGE, without doubt, is too much of a machine. We losesight of learning (or are in danger of losing sight of it) in a sys¬tematic chaos of reading-reports, attendance-records, course-books,and grade-curves. We are over-organized. We do things on sched¬ule; and in underscoring schedule we almost cross out do. Our in¬struments are getting the better of us.The remedy, many critics tell us, is easy. Remove the ma¬chinery, they cry; then the problem can be handled. Abolish grades;let us attend lectures or not, as we please; let nothing be com¬pulsory. Let alma mater cease to be a governess.These are reasonable measures. They would by no meanswork the havoc that many officials fear. Seniors at Harvard arenot required to attend chapel, nor to take military drill, nor to an¬swer to a class roll-call; and the Harvard seniors, so far as we canlearn, still view life soundly and play their part well.But are these reforms the real need? Does it matter muchwhether chapel—and lecture—attendance are compulsory or not,so long as chapel and lectures remain what they are? The realquestion is not, Shall there be a grade-curve? but, What shall welearn?We are told thatWilliams was old WilliamsWhen Amherst was a pup;And Williams will be WilliamsWhen Amherst has grown up.So Chicago will be Chicago, even though we be required toprepare reading-reports on an adding machine; and Chicago willstill be Chicago, though the bureau of records be guillotined onEllis avenue, while a student mass-meeting chants the Marseillaise.If a professor stimulates his pupils, it makes little difference whetherhe calls the roll or not. If a chapel service has a real religious mean¬ing, we do not shake our heads and ask, “Compulsory?”To some extent this machinery helps us. Grade-points, read¬ing-reports, and schedules are a part of the language we speak. Toget along without them would require an effort, and a waste ofenergy. Society demands some routine. We must organize evento get rid of organization.To some extent the machinery defeats its purpose, and robsus. We are tempted to think of knowledge, of life, of reality itself,in terms of major and minor sequences. We become literal. Truthbecomes a matter of question and answer, of induction and syl¬logism.This worship of form has its effect even on our bolder spirits.The critics of the machine still revere it. The machine, they con¬tend, must no longer be a god; therefore it must be a devil. Againstcourse-books, blackboards, and library-fines, we must make holywar. These things are the arch-evil; we must stamp them out.Routine is no arcn-evil, any more than it is a supreme good.It is a tool, to be used where it can help, to be ignored where it mayhinder. Just where it can help, and where hinder, are questions thatwe may leave to wise officials—officials with determination in theirlips, but an occasional twinkle in their eyes. The real problem iselsewhere.Lectures that invite us to study and achieve; problems thatdemand hard and honest work; life presented in its awful reality—college must give us these things. To many, the University givesthem. To many, she does not. There is the problem. There letour critics attack.(This is not the end of an editorial; it is the beginning of one.Any diligent reader knows that, already. Where is this fault, wemgiht ask; where is the weakness that holds the universities backfrom their real job of inspiration? And having found the flaw,what shall we do with it? That editorial—-or ratheT, those editorialsshall not write today.) College and EducationHarvard and Princeton TryTo Stimulate theStudentBy John Patrick Howe“The young people of today regardcollege as a Cook’s tour of the his¬torical regions of education.’’ Pro¬fessor Linn, in the current edition ofthe Phoenix, adds this caustic remarkto the ever-increasing anthology ofcaustic remarks about students. Theobvious answer to these professorialepigrams is simple enough: “Youmade the system. If college studentsare intellectual weaklings you had bet¬ter do something to improve the pro¬cess of educating them.”Fortunately, responsible educatorsare not content merely to lampoonthe products of their own classrooms.They realize that while the majorityof college students have a passive,even a defensive attitude toward theirstudies the situation is not altogetherhopeless. The tutorial system, thehonors course system and the com¬prehensive examination systems re¬cently inaugurated at various easterncolleges are designed to remedy thisevil and to make education a persona!matter, dependent upon the initiativeof the student.Particularly noteworthy is the pre¬ceptorial or tutorial system now inforce at Harvard, Princeton, Bowdoinand other eastern institutions. Oxfordfurnished the model. Its purpose isto stimulate student initiative in study¬ing and to give everyone individual at¬tention by bringing students into in¬timate contact with faculty members.At Harvard the system is not ex¬tensively used. Every week each stu¬dent is given half an hour individualattention by one of the faculty tutors,who thrashes out his problems withhim, makes suggestions about study¬ing, guides him in reading and triesto instill enthusiasm into him. Inso¬far as it has been used it is anacknowledged success.At Princeton the theory is carriedout more fully. Classes which form¬erly met three times a week now meetonly twice, the third hour being de¬voted to conferences. Each class isdivided into conference groups. Eachgroup numbers from four to sevenmen. They meet in the room of thepreceptor or tutor once a week foreach course and discuss the subject inthe manner of a conversation ratherthan in the manner of a class. Tv)encourage intimacy smoking is per¬mitted and tea is sometimes served.Conversation is general, each studentdiscussing his own difficulties, report¬ing on his special study, airing hisown theories and criticising those ofhis neighbors. The preceptor guidesthe flow of conversation, gives addi¬tional factual material and makes sug¬gestions as to advanced reading.The preceptorial system is effective,it works. There is a saying that“Princeton men know how to solveproblems.” The reason that it has notbeen more widely accepted as thestandard system for American collegesis that the cost is almost prohibitive.Even Princeton, wealthy as it is, isfaced with the alternative of reducingthe scope of the system or hiring pre¬ceptors who are younger and less dif¬ficult than the present staff.At any rate the movement is a stepforward. It is probable that in thenear future other schools will adoptsome feasible form of the system, atleast for such departments as thoseincluded in the social science group.■ ■*■»■"■■■■ i«'"—DANCE PROGRAMSJEWELRY - STATIONERYDesigned and Produced ByThe FRATERNITY Shop14 W.

The Iowanswho defeated the Norgrenites in theopener of the season, enter the gamewith the dope behind them; but thesurprise making Maroons may pullout another Big Ten victory beforethe evening is over.They have won five and lost fourtilts thus far, while the Maroonshave done just the opposite. The lo¬cals will attempt to make their rating.500 while the Hawkeye five arehoping for a win to make it fourstraight and a chance for a Confer¬ence championship. After theirinitial win over the locals, they fellinto a slump and lost three straight.Then they recovered and are nowplaying in top form.Van Deusen StarVan Deusen, star of the Jowasquad, is expected to come throughwith his quota of markers and Cap¬tain McConnell, with his long armsand lanky form, will perform at hispost of left guard with his usualagility. Another man who the Nor¬grenites fear especially is Phillips,a substitute forward, who won thegame against them in tlie initial con¬test in the last fewr minutes of play.Alyea, Zimmerman and Sackett jwill probably perform for the Ma¬roons.

The Bad¬gers have been weakened greatly bythe loss of their captain, Huxley, buthave some solace in the work of a newcomer, Beckley.The latter performed superbly atMinnesota last week winning first inthe rings, parallel bars, and tumblingevents. The Maroons have a finelybalanced squad and will force theremnants of the Cardinal’s tumblersand swingers to the limits to win.Purdue has taken the measure of bothteams but their margin over the Mid¬way team was by a meagre margin oftwenty points. “It’s a Hard, Cruel Life on theRolling Terra Firma ”—GophersBy Victor RoterusWhen, on next Wednesday even¬ing, Coach Harold Taylor’s North¬men will have completed their bas¬ketball game, for better or worse,wiith Norgren’s doughty Maroons,and will have settled themselvescomfortably, or otherwise, in thesleeper of some ^rain bound -forMinneapolis they will have traversedsome 8,000 miles of area during thecourse of the present hoop season.This, it is averred, exceeds byhundreds of miles the mileage con¬sumed by any other Big Ten athleticgroup. During their ambitious nego¬tiating the Gophers have also beenforced to spend twenty-two nightsaway from the classroom, the library,the laboratory and the campus ingeneral.Speakers and less-daring expound¬ers, namely writers, have sawed con¬siderable air and consumed muchspace in pointing out the education¬al advantages of travel. Coach Tay¬lor would not work himself into aheat in contesting this argument, butas for the effect of travel on a win¬ning basketball team he could riseto the heights of eloquency. For, sofar, the Northerners have lost everygame played on a foreign floor, andthe games have numbered five.The trouble is, Taylor explains,that the boys composing the quintetare of the home loving kind, unusedto the exacting exigencies of a low¬er or upper berth. They are nearlyall Minneapolis youths who, while inhigh school, merely boarded a street¬car to fulfill an athletic engagementwith another institutions.SOPH WOMEN CAPTUREINTER - CLASS SPLASH;SENIORS ARE SECONDThe women’s Sophomore swim¬ming team won the inter-class meetheld Wednesday, Feb. 24, with atotal score of 31 1-2 points.

This makes Green sure of theinter-hall championship, which theyhave also held for the past two years.They have not lost a game yet andwill play their last one next Wednes¬day when the finals are to be runoff.

Ihave indicated that subject in pencilon the column I am inclosing.” Therethis anonymous well-wisher haddrawn neat little circles around allthe “I’s” in my column. There wereno less than twenty-one of them.Here was matter for consideration.My customary ease of mind wasfurther disturbed when some timelater I met one of my acquaintances.“Yo ushould be at Illinois,” he greet¬ed me, “for you are the biggest ‘I”man in history.” That was a metfndig. I also got another letter in thesecond post touching upon this verymatter. “I counted thirty-two “I’s”in your column this morning,” readthis second message. “Undoubtedly,you and Heywood Broun are the twomost conceited columnists on earth.”That was a little better.
