BLACKFRIARS PLAY FORCAPACITY HOUSE; WILLBROADCAST PRODUCTIONCOUNCIL VOTESTWO PROPOSEDMODIFICATIONSOther Recommendations AreDeferred for 1927ConsiderationFraternity rushing is still an un¬solved problem.This fact was manifested last nightat a meeting of the Interfraternitycouncil when two modifications ofthe present regulations were adopted.The first suggestion ratified was thata man cannot be pledged until his lartsemester in high school; the second,that on the first day of the quarter,when all Spring and Summer pledgesbecome binding, each fraternity shalldistribute among the other Greek so¬cieties a list of its pledges.Graeme Stewart, of Psi Upsilon;Thomas Masters, of Delta KappaEpsilon, and Leland Neff, of PhiKappa Psi, composed the committeethat investigated rushing conditions.They proposed the two rulings thatwere adopted, and made several sug¬gestions, which may demand a re¬codification of the council’s rushingregulations.Problem* Too Vital“Some of the more radical regula¬tions that we felt were needed are toovital to be settled in the remainingfew months of this council’s exist¬ence,’’ explained Leland Neff. “Wehave laid them before the council inthe form of suggestions, to be actedupon after thorough consideration bythe 1927 Interfratemity council.”Among the recommendations madeby different members of the commit¬tee and council at large are several“deferred rushing systems,” such asa regulation against pledging before(Continued on page 5)FRESHMAN WOMEN’SSOCIETY ENTERTAINSCLASSMATES AT TEAFreshman Women’s club will behostess to all women of the fresh¬man class and their upperclass coun¬sellors at a bridge party and tea,next Friday, from 3:30 to 5:30 inIda Noyes hall. Bridge will be playedin the theatre, and tea served laterin the sun parlor.All freshman women have beenasked to bring their counsellors withthem. In case this is impossible, eachfreshman is to bring some other up¬perclass woman.“We cordially invite all women ofthe freshman clas.s to attend theparty," said Ruth Norman, presidentof the club. Every effort has beenmade to assure them a pleasantafternoon as this is the first all-classaffair sponsored by the club thisquarter.”Fifty dollars has been contributedby the Sophomore class to the Wom¬en’s rushing committee of the World’sGreatest Interscholastic. This giftwill make it possible for the womenwho are entertaining the track starsto serve refreshments after the Sen¬ior Vaudeville on the night of June4 and after the Moonlight dance inHutchinson court, June 5. Sign ofthe Sickle, the honor society for soph¬omore women, will undertake the re-onondihiHty of serving the food onboth nights. GIFFORD HITZMANAGES SINGBoynton Named AssistantBy James CusackGifford Hitz will be the Under¬graduate leader of the Interfrater¬nity sing when the thirty-two Greekletter societies meet in competitionon June 12. Hitz was appointed byJames Cusack, president of the In¬terfraternity council, at the lastmeeting of that body. Holmes Boyn¬ton will be his assistant.Since the alumni always play avery important part in the annualfunction, an alumni chairman willsoon be appointed by Cusack.The loving cup that is each yearpresented to the winner went to thePhi Delta Theta house last yearwhen the group arrived with 113contestants. Phi Kappa Psi was sec¬ond and Phi Gamma Delta third.Preparations will be started at oncefor the annual affair. The stimula¬tion of the alumni is always the bigjob of the chairman, for it is quan¬tity, not quality, that appeals to theundergraduate sing audience.Informal clothing is always wornat this annual affair and each frater¬nity sings two fraternity songs, oneas they march into Hutchison courtand the other as they stand aroundthe fountain.Although this is the twenty-secondInterscholastic track meet held at theUniversity, it is only the second timethat the women have assisted inrushing the men. “These concreteevidences of co-operation more thanconvince me of the enthusiasm withwhich both men and women are en¬tering into the spirit of the eventand I see no reason why we can’tmake this year’s meet a great suc¬cess,” said Catherine Fitzgerald,hairman of the Women’s commit¬tee. ^ Doctor BratfishTurns Surveyoras Classic Ends• “Yessir!” says Doc Bratfish, “onj this same day, when the .sun is highin the heavens, and the chimes callthe hour of twelve, I shall hie meover to the senior bench, and with mymicrometer, centimeter, chronometer,and other sundry instruments of fheexpert, and there while admiringthousands stand gasping or breathlessor something, I shall determine thenearest thing to a man in this hereUniversity.

As one views the pei*-formance it is not with the criticaleye of one who demands the syn¬chronized gestures of the Scandals,nor the scandalous gyrations of thedear old State and Congressors. Itis rather a comfortable feeling, anintimate attitude, which comes asyou watch the guy who sits in frontof you in Poly Sci prance across thestage with a ravishing smile and ter¬ribly bowed legs. The boys in “Wal-lie Watch-Out” are as accurately,and as ridiculously, feminine as ever.The show has its raw spots, but asever, too, plenty of them are in thejokes. »Clyde Keutzer makes a pretty girl.If he wore those clothes on campushe could make plenty pretty men,too. And Don McGinnis—ha, ha, etc.McGinnis is unparalleled in his in¬terpretation of the kind of a girlwho flourishes in the dread kingdomof Blind Dates. Sew Covert is whatyou would expect him to be. Whenhe sets his verbal claws on the guile¬less freshman, Marvin Hintz, it’senough to stir the granite conscienceof any fraternity man-hunter.The music has tunes, and the spe¬cialty acts—well, let them try to es¬cape the relentless entertainmentchairmen of future class dinners and1marshmallow club girl roasts.W.

Marvin Hintz.a newcomer to University dramatics,will take the title role of Wallie, thetypical college boy.Best in HistoryBlackfriars of previous years whohave seen the rehearsals proclaim thescript the best in history and themusic of exceptional excellence. Thescenery, too, is attracting consider¬able attention, as it has been built atgreat expense and effort.The “Rhapsody in Blue,” ballet,it is believed, will be one of the big¬gest hits of the show. Costuming forthis specialty is pronounced superb.Glee Club Appears’For the first time, the UniversityGlee club will appear in a Blackfriarshow. Specialty numbers on a scalenever before attempted will also beamong the attractions.Under the direction of HamiltonColeman, the cast and choruses havebeen practicing for the past threeweeks, w’hile the dance acts have beenin charge of Archie Scott, a profes¬sional dancer who staged the Ha'res-foot club dance number this year.“Wallie Watch-Out” was writtenby Walker Davis and William Bager,twro students.DUAL CLASS MIXERSTAGED BY JUNIORSAND SENIORS TODAYTwo orchestras, continuous dancing,ami an innovation in management—such are the attractions offered at theJunior-Senior mixer this afternoon inthe Reynolds club between the hoursof 4 and 6Bill Hahn’s College Crew of greatcampus renown, with a membershipof seven “hot” musicians will occupyone end of the dancing floor, whileKen Ward and Ins helpers will reignsupreme at the other end.

Randolph.^ourtesy;EFFIC!ENTixTSERVICE >f ALWAYSHow Railroads Are OwnedThe Class- I railroads, constituting the bulk of rail¬way mileage of the United States, represent a proper¬ty investment on their own books of approximately$23,900.000,000, or slightly more than $200 for everyman, women and child in the country. They are tenta¬tively valued for rate-making purposes by the Inter¬state Commerce Commission at approximately $20,-500,000,ocx), but this estimate is subject to revision.The par value of the capitalization—stocks and bonds—outstanding against this investment is approximately$18,800,000,000.Title to these properties is vested in corporationsconsisting of approximately one million stockhold¬ers, and the properties are mortgaged to about anequal number of bondholders. The number of directholders of railway securities therefore is roughlyequal to the number of railway employes. Owingto the fact that raising new capital by the sale ofstock has been difficult in recent years, approxi¬mately 60 per cent of the total capitalization at pres¬ent consists of bonds.The stockholder is a partner in the business, withall the rights and risks inherent in ownership. Throughthe board of directors he selects the executives anddirects the management of his property, but he also isthe first to suffer if for any reason earnings becomeinadequate. All the costs of operation, includingwages, all the taxes, all the rents, all the interest duethe bondholders must be paid out of the railway re¬ceipts before the stockholder can participate—if any¬thing is left—by taking dividends and setting asidesomething for reinvestment in the property.The bondholder, on the other hand, has no voicein the management of the property, but he takes lessrisk. If he fails to receive his interest or his prin¬cipal when it is due, he can foreclose and collect froma sale of the property.Although there are probably ''not more than twomillion direct holders of railway securities, manyadditional millions of our population have an indirectand often unrecognzed ownership interest in therailroads. More than 50,000,000 policyholders in life in¬surance companies and more than 39,000,000 depositorsin savings banks have such an interest in the rail¬roads through the investment these institutions havemade in railway securities. Many millions of dol¬lars in the endowment funds of our leading collegesand universities are also invested in railway securities.A development in recent years encouraging to thosewho seek the improvement of the public and em¬ploye relationships of our railroads is that of increaseddirect customer and employe ownership of railwaystocks and bonds. “Main Street” is thus taking theplace in railway circles once ascribed to “Wall Street,”and the result is public ownership of our railroads inits truest and most vcidely beneficial sense.Constructive criticism and -suggestions are invited.C.

It is in the form of a tele¬graphic track meet for the Confer¬ence frosh squads, to take place onMay 20, 21, and 22.Add* IncentiveThere has been a long felt needfor such an affair, for it brings intocompetition the yearling runners,otherwise barred from intercollegiatecompetition and gives them an addedincentive to apply themselves to thefirst year training. There have beenseveral dual meets held in this wayand have proved very successful, butthis is the first time that a largescale affair has been attempted.May Not EnterAccording to Lonnie Stagg, it isuncertain whether the Maroon Froshwill be entered in the meet, due tolack of a suitable place to practiceand hold the races, caused by thebuilding of the new stadium. He issure that his team would have a verygood chance to cop first honors, itbeing one of the best in the Confer¬ence. All other Big Ten schools haveentered the meet except the Univer¬sity of Michigan, who is holding aninterscholastic meet on the days ofthe Frosh meet, and have a similarhandicap to that of the locals.This meet is an unique idea forsuch an affair as it does not involveany loss of time due to travel. Another step in arranging for theSecond Annual Spring Festival, thebig climax to Intramural Sports forthe year, was taken yesterday when en¬try blanks were sent out to all or¬ganizations, inviting them to compete.The meet takes place May 27th and28th.Announce RulesEligibility rules for the carnival v*rrealso announced yesterday. All fresh¬men and varsity candidates for base¬ball, tennis,, golf, and track are barred.Any man who has won points in anintercollegiate track contest is noteligible for this meet. All green shirtsand numeral men of this year’s FroshTrack squad are in-eligible, as are allfull numeral trackmen of this yearand the one preceding. In spite ofthese very inclusive rules, a very largenumber of entries is anticipated.It is not known yet whether themeet may be held on Stagg Field, butit is hoped. According to Weddell, man¬ager of the Carnival, it will be knownnext week, when the construction ofthe new stadium will have progressedenough to tell whether the old trackcan be used. If the intensive buildingprogram makes it impossible to em¬ploy Stagg Field, the Festival will beheld at the V. M. C. A. track.Card Eleven EventsEleven events are included on theblanks mailed out yesterday. They arcas follows: 50 yd. dash. 100 yd. dash,220 yd. dash, 440 yd. run, 880 yd. run,mile run, 120 yd. low hurdles. 12 lb.shot, broad jump, running high jump,half-mile relay.Each contestant is limited to twoevents, and an organization must com¬pete in at least seven fvents to obtainextra points. Both of these rules areaimed to get as many men out forthe spring classic as is possible.Five Winning PlacesIn order to offer a wide field, everyevent is to include five winning places,points to count five, four, three, twoand one. Medals are to be awardedfor all five places, first getting gold,second silver, and third, fourth andfifth bronze.Outstanding organizations for firsthonors are Kappa Sigma, Delta SigmaPhi, Phi Kappa Psi, and Alpha TauOmega.

What to do? they askMacGillivray, might as well get soak¬ed right and take a dip! And so itgoes. Men who had neglected theirsilk tank suits for white flannelsand tennis shoes, return humbly to thedomain of the swim coach.Luckily the rain spell came downon Thursday afternoon Water p dopractice takes place on Tuesdays and Thursdays—the infiu of old men glad-ened the coach, instilled new pep intonew players—more water splashed onthe sidings.What’s all this about? Just tryingto tell you how news of a neglectedworld finally arrived at the sport desk.For the first time since spring weath¬er with its tulips, moonlight nites—andlack of stories. Moon Stephenson andHarry Shlaes were glad to receivenews from a winter sport department.Well, to go on—MacGillivray hasbeen planning to insure his chancesof capturing the Water Polo cham¬pionship of next winter, and with thehelp of a few enthusiasts some sort ofscrimmage has been devised—takingplace on the two days mentioned. Al¬most all the veterans are hack withnv^nimn of f'aptasn Petrolowitz, v>howill cxchaitge his (polo suit for a Cap and Gown quite soon. JerryGreenberg, Lane, White, Krogli. Gor¬don, Jelinek and a few others havebeen up to their old tricks, lead bythe expert advice of the Coach andCaptain-elect Parker Hall.Drill New MenWhat’s more a few promising no¬vices at the art of handling the watersoaked pill are slowly being put inshape to stand the gaff of varsity playnext season. Bob Fcris. who has beenappointed “guardian of the scoringgate” has in a few weeks’ time, de¬veloped into a player of true worth.Mighty few goals have slipped pastBob in the last practices; yes. it seemsas if grounds for worry about rein¬forcement are false. “Plenty ot timeleft, and plenty of chances,” says Mac,"come on out and try ymu luck, shim¬mers.” Bill Weddell, newly elected headcheer leader, and his assistant, John¬ny Gerhardt are already making plansfor carrying out their duties next fall.In order to get good results and amaximum volume in the yelling it isnecessary to have the rooters concen¬trated in one part of the stands, andit is along this line that the new yellmasters are directing their early ef¬forts. In former years the spread-outgrouping of the student spectators hasseriously handicapped the cooperativeyelling, and in the building of the newstadium Weddell and Gerhardt see achance for remedying the situation.All Students TogetherThe way it is planned now, the stu¬dent section will occupy several rowsalong the entire West Stands. Wed¬dell hopes to cnange this plan by con¬centrating the entire student sectionin the center of this stand. Such aplan would greatly add to the effective¬ness of the rooting, and would affordthe new leaders a decided improve¬ment over the conditions of formeryears.In addition to this, the noted im¬provement in the Chicago Band willplay a great part in the yelling ofnext year. According to Weddell, ev¬ery effort is being made to securethe best of cooperation between thehand and the rooters. Especially willthat be true in the singing.In order to get started on the workimmediately, Weddell is planning ameeting for next Wednesday. “Thismeeting is for the purpose of gettinga line on the outstanding candidatesfor this fall,” said Weddell, “and alsoto make initial plans for the cheer-loading in the new stadium. The newNorth Stand with its capacity of 17,-000 should produce three times asmuch vocal support as the old WestStand, and we are out of it.”AWARD TROPHY TOBEST GRID PLAYEREvanston. Ill..

LEAVE TONIGHT AT TEN O'CLOCKFOR OHIO STATE; BURG EXPECTEDTO COP HIGH JUMP FOR MAROONSCaptain Cusack, McKinney Are Strong Points in LocalAttack; Chances Are Slim for Coppingthe MeetBy Bob SternWhat the Maroon track team andits loyal adherents look forward to inthe Outdoor Conference, will may, ina way, he accurately forecasted tomor¬row, when the third annual quadran-gler meet between Wisconsin, OhioState, Northwestern, and Chicago willbe held. The affair is to be held atColumbus on the Ohio State Field andit appears that it will he the meetthat will hold the greatest general in¬terest for conference sponsors over theweek-end.Chances Not GoodChicago’s chances in the meet arenot rated very high; in fact the ex¬pectation is that the Maroon team willprobably be on the small end of thescore sheet when the totals are givenout. Nevertheless Coach Stagg issending the strongest team that couldhe recruited from his squad and theywill certainly show well in some ofthe individual events. Not much isexpected from the team as a whole forone very sufficient reason—the factthat the home team has been so ter¬rifically handicapped bv the lack ofa track to condition on.Wisconsin is granted a big edge onfirst nlace in the meet. The Badveroutfit has already won the controversythree times and they arc out this yearto make it four in a row. With suchmen as McGinnis in the hurdles, Ken¬nedy in the middle distances, andSchracder in the weights they have allthe material in the world with whichto gain the highly necessary firsts. TheWisconsin team lias been a whirlwindwinner this year. In the last meet theyabsolutely swamped Minnesota by thescore of 84 to 50.Burg to Win JumpChicago’s hopes rest with three men,Burg, Capt. Cusack, and McKinney.Burg is doped to win the high jump,hut only after a battle with McGin¬nis and Anson of Ohio. He also maytake places in the ptde vault and tiiebroad jump. McKinney’s all aroundwork, is expected to bring in the mostMaroon markers. However he is go¬ing to have tough sledding in thehurdles when he meets the formidableSPRING I-M SPORTSRAPIDLY COMING TOSUCCESSFUL CLOSEThe intramural handball singlestournament is gradually nearing itsclose with the semifinal round alreadyreached. Most of the players whoreached the semifinal round in thedoubles tournament have showngreat skill in the singles. In thesemifinals are Christianson, PhiKappa Sigma; Goodman and Silver-man, doubles title-holders; Watkow-ski, Elson, Henrickson, and Geisman.Tennis also is rapidly nearing thesemifinal round with the third roundrapidly being played off. The golftournament is attracting some strongentries, among whom are McKinley,former Englewood star. With play¬ground ball almost near the semifin¬als, everything is in readiness to havethe winner determined in time forthe June carnival when the prizesand medals will be awarded to thelucky contestants.In former years the only Springintramural sport of any importanceat all was the playground ball tour¬ney, but this year many others areholding places in the interest of thestudents. Guthrie of Ohio and the ever per¬nicious McGinnis. Guthrie in his lastfew starts has smashed every knownconference hurdles record and if Mc¬Kinney even runs him a close racehis reputation as a harrier topper willbe made.Capt. Jimmy Cusack and Martin ofWisconsin are scheduled to be the starperformers in the feature race of theday—the half mile. Martin has twicebeaten Jimmy, and this time he is allset to heat him or break in the at¬tempt But in the Illinois relays Mar¬tin won the event in 1:55, in the Kan¬sas relays he made under 1 :55, and heis conceded to he the best half milerin the conference. All of which is go¬ing to make it exceedingly difficultfor the Maroon Captain to v in out.Leave TonightThe rest of the personnel of theChicago team consist of Mickelberry,to run in the dashes, Hitz, Dugan andHegovich to compete in the distanceruns, Hobscheid. Rouse. Schabinger.and Olwin to throw the weights, andMorrison to run with McKinney in thehurdles. Thiese men will leave at10:00 (Chicago time) tonight from thePennsylvania station.Ohio undoubtedly will score heav¬ily in the huddles and dash events.Guthrie of course will he the pointman in th^ hurdles, while Irwin andGrimm are the Buckeye dash stars.Ansin in the high jump and Gabalacin the hammer are their best field men.Purple WeakNorthwestern has a few possiblepoint getters in addition to Martin. Al¬though Martin in the 440 and 880is the main-stay of the Furple, thereare several good men in the weightsat the Evanston school. Bagge, Green-burg, and Nessler are all good menat the shot. Also there are Furreyin the mile.

Miss Houghteling hassubmitted the complete results of theinvestigation to the University in athesis for the degree of doctor of phil¬osophy.The inquiry was undertaken as atest for the standards represented inthe model budget used by the ChicagoCouncil of Social Agencies in givingassistance to needy families; to deter¬mine whether that standard is higherthan actual living conditions amongthe families of unskilled and semi¬skilled workers who do not dependupon charity. Slightly more than halfof the families investigated are ableto maintain the Council’s standard.Miss Houghteling concludes.Insufficient IncomesIn 50.9 per cent of the families sur¬veyed the chiei wage earners receivedless than $1,400 in 1924—the year in¬vestigated—and the remainder, ex¬cluding a small percentage not re¬ported, were paid $1,400 or more. Theincome from a specific occupation of tile principal breadwinner was insuf¬ficient to maintian suitable standardsin about two-thirds of the cases, ac¬cording to Miss Houghteling, hut in¬come from other sources increased iiietotal sum available to many families.The standards fixed by the Coun¬cil’s model budget are reasonable, theinvestigator concludes, writing that“the families living on a lower stand¬ard than that provided by the bud¬get estimate fail utterly to provide astndard of living that will make pos¬sible a high standard of physical,mental and moral health and efficiencyfor adults, the full physical and men¬tal growth and development for chil¬dren. and provision for their moral ,w elfare.”5 per cent Use LampsElectricity is used lor lighting by j70.7 per cent of the families investi¬gated. while 25.7 per cent use gas, and5.6 per cent rely upon lamps for light,the report shows.The percentage of families of the 1class dealt with which go into debt is iabout equal to the number which save !money, according to tables in the re¬port, showing that 31.1 per cent hadsavings, while 32.1 per cent reporteddebts.Few BathroomsBathrooms are lacking for 56.6 percent of the families according to oneof the tables.
