Big Greek GangGives Whistlers’Club Huge RushCollegiate prestige has been addedto the present embryonic Whistle club,conceived and begun by Terrible Turk('Leo Stone) who conducts the featurecolumn on the rear page of TheDaily Maroon, with the offer of incor¬poration with a national fraternity, infact it is even whispered abput afnpngthe aesthetes that the new mark of dis¬tinction on campus may he the goldemblem—bull's head and shovel—ofthe organization. jIt seems that a national columnisticfraternity called Mu Alpha, whose Al¬pha chapter is at Northwestern univer¬sity, has invited the Whistlers clubto fall into line as the Epsilon chapterof Mu Alpha.Whether or not Mr. Stone will ac¬cept the proffered bag of gold em¬blem and add national prestige to hisnow rather exclusive group is. at thepresent time, a matter of conjecture.“The offer is attractive,” said Ter¬rible Turk last night. “It would meanthat we would publish a line book;that the column would be merely an. .-ithpiece for a national fraternity.It depends on how the Whistlers Clubprogresses. We will make the de¬cision next quarter.”Three contributions must be pub¬lished in the Whistle before a personin declared eligible for the WhistlersClub. This is the same arrangementthat governs the personnel of Mu Al¬pha fraternity at Northwestern. Thename of their column is Acorns. Lit¬erary pursuits and miscellaneousacrobatics with the bull are the frat¬ernal objectives.So time will tell just what is tobecome of the ardent Whistlers whohave been tempted by the melodicvoice of the Greek bard.

Every other school of any size in the midwest had a fullteam at Champaign. Many of those schools are as small or smallerthan Chicago. It is inconceivable that track material of those col¬leges is so far superior to that which comes here to school that Chi¬cago should be able to enter runners in competition with them in theratio of three men to their twenty or so.Of course, Capt. Jim Cusack was sick, and as that wrecked what¬ever chance there was of placing in the relays, there really wasn tmuch use in sending down a big squad of men who would be prettycertain not to place. Still, one would think that there should bemore than three men on the team capable of competing up to thestandards of other American college track men. Apparently therewere not, for only three were sent—and two of those largely becausethey were seniors.The Maroon pointed out recently that Chicago track was de¬finitely on the down grade. It made at that time several sugges¬tions that it believed would help to remedy the existing situation. Itsuggested that Mr. Stagg confine himself to acting as Director ofAthletics and head football coach, two duties which, with all hisother interests, would appear to be capable of occupying all histime. It hinted at a more specialized coaching staff for track ath¬letics. It suggested a full-time coach for track.The Maroon renews those suggestions. It feels that a systemwhich can develop only three athletes capable of representing aschool of the size of Chicago in an intercollegiate track meet needsto be remedied.

While itis evident that there is nothing tohinder the exceptionally capable stu¬dents from doing advanced work ontheir own initiative there is enoughtruth in the criticism to warrant actionon the part of the college rules-makers.The first remedy has been to makeclass work so stringent that the in¬tellectually impossible arc forced outand the mediocre are assure, if notof a growth of “intellectual brawn andmuscle.” of a plentiful supply of “men¬tal fat.” But the remedy has its evilstoo. The exceptional students are soswamped with the work of preparingpapers and reports and recitations andexaminations that they have no timefor developing initiative in study. Theylose the fine individuality of whichtheir intelligence makes them capable;they are ground out of the collegemachine with standard “educations.”The "honors course system” for ex¬ceptional students has been the solu¬tion for this problem. Yale. Swarth-more, Smith, Columbia and other east¬ern schools have adopted some formof the system with gratifying results.The details of the plan vary in the va¬rious schools but the general plan isas follows:Students who have proved them¬selves in the first two years of collegework to he unusually intelligent andindustrious are allowed, if they choose,to do all their work on their own in¬itiative. They are permitted to study whatever subjects they like, with the| exception that they must elect a ma¬jor subject in which they are ex¬pected to become proficient. TheyI study when and where they like, goto what classes they think will be prof¬itable and in general arc freed fromall the restrictions to which ordinarystudents are subject. The only di¬rection which they receive is thatwhich they seek voluntarily in con¬ference with faculty members. At theend of these last two years of personalstudy they are given a searching, com¬prehensive examination in all the sub¬jects which they elected. The exam¬ination is not one of details hut oneof principles, of the relations and ap¬plications of these principles, and ingeneral of .the student’s ability tothink.The reception which students havegiven these courses has not been whol¬ly enthusiastic. Previous to 1900 asystem similar to the honors coursesystem was tried at the Universityof Michigan and in ten years lessthan o|ie hundred decrees weregranted under its provisions. Most“exceptional” students and certainlyall mediocre students prefer to mem¬orize a few facts for a few months,take an examination, and then forgetthe subject forever. The recent tend¬ency among students, however, hasbeen to choose the honors system inpreference to the straight course sys¬tem, which indicates a growing appre¬ciation of the merits of honors courses.It is safe to predict that this systemwill play a large part in the growthand improvement of education meth¬ods.Students’ Laundry20% Discount With This AdUNIVERSITYHAND LAUNDRY1031 E. 55th Stroot CAMPUS NURSERY RHYMEMary had a college man,His cheeks were white as snow,And everywhere that Mary wentThis man was sure to go.He followed her back home one night,Which was against the rule;But Mary said, “He may be rich—And I’m nobody’s fool!”So Mary built her castles high;She dreamed of untold wealth.But he was just a college man.And all HE had was health.Till one day Mary saw the truthAnd gave her man the gate;But he’s amassed a fortune nowBy selling Real Estate!THE MIRROR cast has been in¬vited over to the Alpha Delt Houseafter the last performance, Satur¬day evening.

Theywere started by Dr. Falk at Yale uni¬versity and concluded at the Univer¬sity.Having obtained a fresh supply ofpneumonia germs from patients in theCook county hospital, Dr. Falk andhis assistants proceeded to develop amethod of measuring the killing pow¬er of the germs. A substitute for manhad to he found. From a large num¬ber of experiments it was finally dis¬covered that if the germs were grownin a certain specified way they wouldkill white mice in much the same man¬ner in which they cause the death ofhuman beings.The next step was to measure howmuch killing power was required ineach culture to kill white mice andthen to measure the readiness withwhich the germs were clotted togetheror agglutinated by a serum. It wasfound that the most potent germs re¬sist clotting the most easily. On thebasis of previous knowledge (hat clot¬ting is determined by electrical volt¬age between germs and the solutionin which they are suspended, the in¬vestigators built an apparatus formeasuring this voltage.Then they demonstrated by parallelexperiments that the measurement ofvoltage on the germs in more rapidand simpler than measurement withanimals, thus making a discovery andimproving on it at almost the sametime.The University workers have devel¬oped. in addition, methods of changingthe virulence of pneumonia germs, in¬creasing or decreasing it at will. Thechanges in the germs can he kept con¬stant or can he wiped out again, de¬pending on the purposes of the ex¬periment.
