THEY CALL THIS ONETHE “FINAL” NUMBERThe last issue of the Phoenix,which will come out one weekfrom Thursday, will be known asthe “Pinal” number, which FredHandschy, editor, declares to beparticularly pertinent at examtime.The cover is by Rainey Ben¬nett. It has been characterized as“flaming” by over-awed spectatorsand the editors are well satisfied,it is asserted. #“The quality of the contribu¬tions should be as unrestrained,”said Handschy, “and as srightly asa young professor in knlcker, at apicnic, driving a Chrysler.” Asusual, the damage is two bits, andalso as usual, the fate of the is¬sue will be in the hands of campuswomen.All the talent of the campus hu¬mor artists has been brought to¬gether to make this last issue thebest of the year, according toHandschy.

Allhope for his recovery has been sur¬rendered, and every possible formof artificial stimulation is beingused to keep him alive.“There is scarcely any percep¬tible change in Mr. Eck’s condi¬tion from day to day,” states Dr.K. B. Novak. “Complicationshave not set in, but the steadyweakening discourages medical as¬sistance. Death may come at anymoment.”Although their mentor lies des¬titute in a County institution,Tom’s “boys” haven’t forgottenhim.

The prizes of $75 and $25will be awarded to the winners inthe final contest. “The final contes¬tants eliminated a big field of read¬ers,” said Mr. Nelson. Women’s organizations scheduledto occupy the horseshoe of boxes atMandel hall on the night of SeniorVaudeville will be given reservedseats on the main floor, owing to thefact that the change of date to thesame night as the presentation ofawards makes a conflict. By this settlement the horseshoe will still beoccupied by women, while the organ¬izations that had reserved boxes forFriday will be compensated by mainfloor seats.Except for this unavoidable con¬flict in the matter of boxes, arrange¬ments for the Saturday night presen¬tation of senior vaudeville have pro-ceded smoothly, according to FredHandschy, co-chairman of the vaude¬ville this year. The alumni of the University havecontributed $2,000,000 toward thedevelopment fund, it was announcedtoday. A gift of $80,000 from Rob¬ert Law Jr. ’97, of New York Cityreceived yesterday by the Universitycompleted the alumni quota. Thefund now totals $7,548,000. The to¬tal amount of gifts including restrict¬ed contributions from alumni andthe public not to be considered aspart of the development program is$11,133,644.Not'fy AlumniAlumni all over the country werenotified yesterday that the quota hadbeen reached. The announcement re¬called the inauguration of the cam¬paign among former students, whenPresident Ernest DeWitt Burton,shortly before his death, set forththe purposes and ideals of what wasto be the greater University. Thepresident, then failing in health, de¬scribed the university which is now-materializing in stone and resourceson the Midway. His speech, said tobe one of the most stirring he hadever delivered, was made to 1200alumni meeting at the FurnitureMart March 24, 1925, and wasbroadcast to thousands of old gradsthroughout the country.Answer PleaThe response to the late president’splea for funds with w’hich to carryon the work of building the greateruniversity came from 11,500 alumni.Herbert Zimmermann, vice presidentof R. R. Dofinelley and Sons, actedas general chairman. Chicago alum¬ni, under the local chairmanship ofJohn P. Mentzer, gave $1,232,000.New York City alumni oversubscribedtheir quota of $200,000. SouthernCalifornia contributed $44,660.Cleveland completed its quota of$19,880. In many cities every alum¬nus subscribed. According to theannouncement, 153 alumni, many ofthem missionaries, in thirty foreigncountries, subscribed $11,410.Robert Law*, Jr., a wealthy NewYork business man, whose gift com¬pleted the alumni quota took an ac-tice part in the affairs of the classof 1897. After leaving the Univer¬sity he went east and there continuedto manifest his interest in Universityaffairs. When he heard that the Uni¬versity needed $80,000 of alumnicontributions, he wired his gift toPresident Max Mason.(Continued on page 2)MELBOURNE BOYNTONAPPOINTED TO STAFFOF BURMA COLLEGESwedish Folk DancersEntertain Campus ClubDressed in native costumes, fiveSwedish folk dancers will entertainat the last meeting of the Scandin¬avian club tonight at 7:45 in IdaNoyes hall.

We hearthem lecture once a day; we confer with them perhaps twicea quarter; and in most cases that is the extent of our contact. Wemeet on the street, greet each other politely, and walk on. Some¬times, indeed, we have long conversations, and learn to look moredeeply into this subject or that; and we remember such talks. Butthey are rare.We might learn, in private, informal talks with our professors, manythings that our education now lacks. We could learn some of thetruths that lie beyond lecture notes and reading references. Wecould learn just how big a thing knowledge is, and how little of itone man or one age can master. We could learn how real arethe facts, the laws, and the theories that we recite, and how closethey are to life itself, ^e could learn to study our history, ourpolitical economy, our literature, ‘‘from the viewpoint of eternity.”The professor might teach us such lessons as these, outside of class.But we ignore each other.Both we and the professor have our reasons for this segraga-tion. For one thing, we are busy. He has his research; we haveour activities. We have little time left for each other. But we havetime to talk with our fraternity brothers after lunch; and he hastime for a half-hour’s chat at the club. Something else keeps usapart. We are afraid of ridicule. Our friends will watch us fol¬low Prof. Coggins into his office. “Charley,” they will say, ‘‘isworking the old man for a B.” And other professors will watch, too.‘‘Coggins is playing to the gallery,” they will whisper. They maywell watch for such vices; for the flattering student and the dem¬agogue professor are enemies of education. Only genuine interestmust prompt the conversation between professor and pupil. Butwe need that interest, and that conversation.The student must forget that he is busy. He always has timeto learn something; otherwise college is not the place for him.Both student and professor must forget their hashfulness. Theymust be willing to risk some ridicule. With these obstacles out ofthe way. They can find opportunities to talk things over. Perhapsthe fraternity houses can entertain professors at dinner; perhapsthe Quadrangle club can entertain students. At any rate, thereare walks in Jackson Park. Socrates had no better salon. (Continued from page 1)Recounting the building progressof the University, the announcementfurther revealed that more than$9,000,000 worth of building pro¬jects were either under contract orcompleted. These include, the state¬ment continued, the school of medi¬cine, $4,500,000, the University chap¬el, $1,700,000, the theology building,$600,000 the Joseph Bond chapel,$150,000, the Rawson laboratory ofmedicine and surgery, $500,000, theWieboldt hall for the study of mod¬em languages, $500,000, and theWhitman laboratory for investiga¬tions in. the science of zoology.Expressing the gratitude felt bythe University for alumni contribu¬tions, President Max Mason said:“By the addition of two milliondollars to the endowment, the alum¬ni have made a great step in the pro¬gram of increased excellence of per¬formance at the University of Chi¬cago. Those who know the Univer¬ sity best have shown their faith inits ideals by a generosity carried inmany cases to the point of real sacri¬fice. Their action is an inspirationto all of us in our effort to meet theresponsibilities and opportunitieswhich confront the University.”GREEK ADORN HOUSESTODAY(Continued from page 1)fore the athletes arrive.

Last of all, there is the“committee of prominent men” (yes,there are prominent men), foundedon the platform that ‘the school hassomething to sell, therefore, we willsell it’. Certainly all this is a no¬table display of efficiency. It ought,one would think, to get the boys.The Rushing Commission, how¬ever, believes in making things safe—in not only doing things up brown,but in frying them to a crisp.

In Mexico, romantic land of pretty senoritasand languorous minstrelsy, practical Americanengineers have harnessed streams so that moun¬tains may be leveled.The winding thirty-mile Maltrata incline on theroad from Vera Cruz to Mexico City is now elec¬trified. Ten electric locomotives replace twenty-three steam engines. The electrics haul twice thetonnage of the steam locomotives—and in halfthe time, with obvious benefits to traveler, rail¬roader, and shipper.Yet Maltrata is but an example of electricalprogress. For electricity is conquering the gradesof railroads and of industry alike, the world over.Impressive, no doubt, but still modest whencompared with the possibilities of electricity inyears to come.
