UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 29, 1926 - \o s ] - xj Record class of800 enrolls thisFall.Price Five CentsWHAT OFIT?b i •Exchanging the customary “Gladto see you back, how was the sum¬mer?” line with one of the lady re¬porters who lounge around the sump¬tuous Maroon office yesterday after¬noon, I wras told that it seemed hardto get back to the business of dailywork on the paper again after thesummer period of idleness. Thetransition from summer and its dogdays and the porch swing to fall,rushing, the paper and the rest of it,abrupt as it may seem to some peo¬ple, has not, however, especially dis¬turbed me. A tranquil soul amidstall the vicissitudes of this oftentimesgrating life, I take things much asthey come at all times. This period,incoming freshmen Think the old fratclubs (I quote that legendary cam¬pus figure, Mr. Ben Tunrner) aresomething other than they actuallyare, has not caused my collar to wilt,or my appetite to diminish.With all this as it is, I reiteratethat this transition from the idlenessof summer to the toil of autumn hasnot been especially pronounced inmy mind. Summer might just aswell be fall, for all the effect it hason my status, for always I remain adilettante in idleness with the pass¬ing of the days. Summer and winterI am constant in my laziness.Tempermentally endowed as I amwith the supreme gift of laziness, Iam spared the trouble of ever havingto readjust myself to changed condi¬tions—to work, for example, aftersummer idleness.• * •This first column of the year, Imight say, is written, A, with theview of getting acclimated to thefront page, after a long year towardthe rear end of the sheet; B, forthe purpose of seeing whether theold line of oil, good for any amountof space a year ago at such times asthe Editor, one A1 Heaid of CedarRapids, was short of other dust tothrow in the eyes of campus; and, C,with the idea of letting those unfor¬tunate souls—incoming freshmen andsuch—into whose drab souls this col¬umn has never cast its cheering light,get an insight on the lines, ideals orwhat-have-you on which it is con¬ducted. If this first day’s work suc¬ceeds in its ends, considerable bang¬ing of the typewriter will not havebeen in vain. If it doesn’t succeedin aid C, I shall law it to the generaldumbness that is common to allfreshmen (and, from the detachedview of one of my strenuons rusherfriends, to this year’s freshmen inparticular). So everything is rosyall around, despite a faint greenishtinge to the sky over Mandel.* * *This column last year specializedin nothing but its conductor’s views,if any. It was personal, and theword “I,” scattered profuselythrough its length and breadth, wasused against its conductor as thebasis for the charge that, perhaps,he thought he was pretty good. Lestthe new freshmen fall into the errorof looking at things in this sameway, I repeat on this occasion thedefense I made a year ago. Thatdefense rests on the primary prin¬ciple that a column is, if anything,no more than The revelation of thepersonality of its author, that it isa clearing ground for his personalopinions. Some readers may notagree with those opinions; they maynot like them and they may say so.Some, even, may only read the col¬umn every day for the purpose ofpicking flaws in the logic of itsauthor, of confuting him, proving himno more of an oracle than he shouldbe. Well, be this as it may. Justso long as they READ it every day,its conductor is satisfied.

A. Michelson, noted Uni¬versity physicist, who has returned “ingood health and high spirits” from asummer in which he was occupied withthe measurement of the speed of lighton Mt. Wilson in Pasadena, Cal., an¬nounced this morning that the famousMichelson-Morley experiment of 1883,upon the negative results of whichEinstein based his celebrated theoryof relativity, would be repeated.on Mt.Wilson next December.The famous scientist said, also, thathe had obtained very satisfactory re¬sults in his work this summer, meas¬uring the speed of light as it traveled,reflected back and forth by means ofa set of mirrors, from Mt. Wilson toMt. San Antonio* twenty-two milesaway. While Prof. Michelson is notready to .announce his results, it is ex¬pected that they will reveal a muchhigher precision in the measurementof light’s speed than has ever beforebeen recorded.Perfect ApparatusExperts are now at work in Pasa¬dena to perfect the interferometerwhich the scientist will use when hewill conduct once more the world-famous experiment which “involvesthe problem of measuring the speedof the earth and with it the wholesolar system through space.” The ap¬paratus will be the same type as thatused in the original experiment. How¬ever, certain improvements will beadded to insure greater accuracy. Thetheory and apparatus utilized in thisexperiment are rather complicated,and at best, only a vague idea of theirsignificance and operation can be setforth in non-technical language.Expound ProblemsBriefly, -the problem may be stateda* follows. The sun, as it movesthrough space, is carrying the earthand the whole solar system with it.Prof. Michelson argued that by meansof light, this motion could be deter¬mined.It was supposed that the measure¬ment of the velocity of light in thedirection of this motion would be dif¬ferent from corresponding measure¬ment at right angles. The interfer¬ometer was devised in order to meas¬ure this difference, if it really existed.The Michelson - Morley experimentshowed, however, contrary to previousideas, that the velocity of light is al¬ways the same in all directions. Toexplain this, Einstein conceived thetheory of relativity.Test CaseRecently, however, Prof. Dayton C.Miller of the Case school in Clevelandapparently arrived at a positive resultwhich, if confirmed, would be in con¬tradiction with Einstein's theory ofrelativity. Prof. Michelson’s proposedexperiment next December will eitherrepeat the negative result he got someyears ago or will confirm the positiveresult of Dr. Miller.The purpose of the inteferometerdevised for the old Michelson-Morleyexperiment is to divide a ray of lightinto two parts, one of which travels atright angle to the other. A piece ofglass thinly coated with silver set atan angle of 45 degrees to the lightallows some of the light to go straightthrough, but reflects the rest at aright angle.This instrument later proved ofvalue in a considerable number ofother investigations. Among these wasthe establishment of the m^ter interms of light waves, undertaken byDr. Michelson in France at the re¬quest of the International Bureau ofweights and measures; and the ether-drift experiment of 1924-25, whichstudied the effect of the rotation ofthe earth on the velocity of light.“C” Handbook IsReady TomorrowThe “C” Handbook, a necessity toevery student, containing'all inform¬ation pertaining to campus life willbe ready for distribution tomorrowmorning, according to Mr. MiltonMcLane, Y. M. C. A. director. Theymay be purchased at the UniversityBookstore. Local StudentIs New NationalRifle Champion;Although not generally known, itis none the less true that the longrange rifle championship of theUnited States is held by an under¬graduate of the University. Theundergraduate’s name is RussellWiles, and although he only gainedthis distinction this summer he isused to championships and things ofthat sort, for in 1923, at the age of17, he was highest manon the UnitedStates rifle team which won interna¬tional matches with England, Can¬ada, and Australia.This summer drastic tryouts wereheld for the American team whichfinally lost to England in the inter¬national tournament. Sixty men wereat last eliminated, leaving the besttwenty-five to represent the UnitedStates. Wiles stood fifth on theAmerican list.Wiles is a sophomore at the Uni¬versity this fall and is pledged toPhi Gamma Delta.MACK EVANS SEEKSSTUDENTS TO FILLPOSITIONS IN CHOIRPlaceS are open in the UniversityChoir in all voices for both men andwomen: second bassos are especiallywelcome: the ability to read is desir¬able but not essential, and previousvocal training is not required. Enter¬ing freshmen, who have four yearshere, are particularly welcome.The University Choir offers itsmembers a modest amount of pay, anda considerable amount of musicalpleasure and discipline. Among its“extra” performances for the year tocome is listed a projected schedule ofbi-weekly broadcasting at the solicita¬tion cf one of the largest Chicago sta¬tions.Freshmen entering the choir are ofespecial value to the organization be¬cause of the longer service they cangive. They can secure for themselvesthe advantage of singing most of thattime in the new chapel, already one ofthe architectural landmarks of thecountry.Applicants may see me in MitchellTower, second floor, from 10:00 to12:00 and from 2:00 to 3:00 any schoolday. The first rehearsal is held tomor¬row evening at 7:00 in MitchellTower.

Routineoffice work, circulation, and adver¬tising all require the attention ofmany members of the business staff,and among those concerned withthese three spheres are many fresh¬men* Freshmen need not confinetheir activities to one of the businessdepartments alone, but in some caseswill be allowed to sell advertisingand work in the circulation depart¬ment at the same time.Further Information may be ob¬tained at the Maroon office in Ellishall.ASSOCIATE EDITORSOF YEARBOOK MEETPreliminary plans for the 1927Cap and Gown will be made by asso¬ciate editors of the publication whenthey meet at 2:30 o’clock Thursdayafternoon in the Cap and Gown of¬fice, according to announcement bythe editor, Richard Scholz, issuedyesterday. “BLUFF” INDICATIVEOF INTELLIGENCE,SAYS TEXAS PROF.Bluffing grades almost imperceptibly,into intelligence, and must be takeninto consideration by the psychologistin seeking to measure the mentality ofa man or woman, according to Prof.F. A. C. Perrin, of the University ofTexas, who delivered lectures on per¬sonality at the University last summer.The familiar intelligence tests, Prof.Perrin went on to say, measure a sortof intelligence, but do not truly depictthe “total person.”The basic fact which impresses usin a study of the actions of a humanindividual in a group,” he asserted, “isthe seeking for adjustment, not in thenarrow biological sense only, but in the sense of seeking after prestige, orsocial success, or a better salary. Andwe have to define intelligence as theability to make these social adjust¬ments.”“When a student who is afraid offlunking a course goes complaining tothe instructor, and, if a woman, per¬haps cries, he is exercising a form ofintelligence,” Mr. Perrin declared,“andsuch things are not without effect.”Real or assumed anger, gestures,and all other means brought into playin seeking the “adjustment” desired,must be considered in evaluating “so¬cial intelligence” according to thispsychologist, and the individual’s con¬duct in the ball room or dining roomis as much a gaujfe of this intelligenceas his conduct in the classroom. rDo MEN Like It?'We’llSay They Do!”4-Course Dinner, 75c Steak Dinner Every Night, #1As Many Hot Biscuits as You Can EatTHE GARGOYLE 5704 Dorchester AvenueMAKE YOUR CAMPUS STOREYOUR HICAGO STORE— FOR —New and Second Hand In Text, Medicine, Law,Discriminating Se lection of ReferenceBooks, and General LiteratureGYM GOODSB e properlyequipped withSweat ShirtsSupportersTrunksSocksShoesAbo ask to see our new SWEAT COATSU. of C.

The Daily Maroon, as the representative^ * and the spokesman of the student body welcomes you into thelife of the university community. The members of the Daily Maroonstaff, in particular, greet you as fellow students.You have chosen the University of Chicago for your school.Almost necessarily, you come to it with a completely inadequateunderstanding of its distinctive features. Many of you chose it forthe most trivial of reasons. Few of you had even a glimmer of anidea about what it would do to you. But all of you felt that somegood would come of your decision. We think you were right.You have been anticipating for many weeks the plunge intothis University life, the new environment, the complete shifting ofthe scenery, the suddenly widened range of interests, the fresh sti¬mulations, the new loyalties. There is an element, too, of wonder inthis anticipation. We think that there is something wonderful aboutthe University.You have chosen a school which is wonderful in its genuineness.The superficialities common to the campus of many schools are herereduced to a minimum. The collegiate shout and the collegiatesneer, amusing enough, both of them, are by-products of adoles¬cence, and the University of Chicago is not adolescent in spirit.. Itsunderlying spirit is rather one of genuine good-fellowship, temperedby seriousness of purpose, and one of genuine dignity, tempered byintelligent liberality.We congratulate you. We hope that you have come here withideals, with a capacity for friendship, and with an appetite for theausterity that makes for hard study and vigorous thinking. And wewish you a happy and successful year.

And by the same token freshmen who wait two weeksbefore subscribing to The Daily Maroon are invariably numberedamong the ‘‘I didn't get a good start’s.”The Daily Maroon is almost as essential to the freshman as histext books. It is the only reliable daily medium for all of the newson a great University campus. It covers every class of student andactivity accurately. The Daily Maroon is a source of rapidly growing interest because it was founded solidly twenty-four years ago.New features, new policies, new staff members, indicate thatthe student newspaper will not be an idle boast this year. And inas¬much as we labor five days every week to give you a comprehensiveand interesting news coverage and since we believe that nothing suc¬ceeds like success we stand unqualifiedly in back of our product. Andwe hope that you will recognize our faith; that you will sincerelypraise or censure at will, but most of all that you will give us a light¬ing chance to demonstrate our worth by subscribing.WHAT OF IT?/^HANGE is progress.We think we have made a discovery but we don’t know whatyou think.

No, sir, Georgie was city bred—and prep school besides.Dawns Monday, Freshman Mon¬day. Dean So-and-So had said this,and the President himself had saidthat.

I’m Bill Bolls,from McHoehandleville, southernpart of the state—how are thefolks?”And so on.But not for Georgie. Georgieblew into the fire and untenanted air,and saw the campus for himself.Days, and nights, passed, andGeorgie eluded the upperclassmen.Tried out for The Daily Maroon, thetrack team, an interview with thePresident,—but they were all toococky, somehow; they all wanted toshow him how. And so on.Georgie was graduated a Bachelorof Philosophy four year later. Hewas surrounded after convocation byhis mother, father, and one survivinggrandmother.About fifty years later Georgiedied. They say he had to pull thelid down on his own coffin.And so it goes, and goes, and goes.And there is a moral which only wewise men, upperclassmen, know:Heed the wise men, youngsters; theyhave only evil to teach you. but with¬out that evil you will be—likeGeorgie—Bachelors of Philosophy,and, in time, so much clay.THE SHANTYFor five years the favorite gathering place'for University Stu¬dents who crave HOME COOKING.Crisp, Golden Brown Honey Fluff WafflesDelicious Sandwiches, Salads, Pies, etc.Both table d’ hote and a la carte serviceFrom 7:30 a. m. to 8 p. m.1309 East 57th Street“A Homey Place for Homey People” CLOTHESReady-madeAnd Cut to OrderESTABLISHED ENGLISH UNIVERSITYSTYLES, TAILORED OVER YOUTHFULCHARTS SOLELY FOR DISTINGUISHEDSERVICE IN THE UNITED STATES.^Kortev HouseSuits and Overcoats*40, *45, *50WALLY’SJust saw the old kid over at the Eversharpcounter.

Its coming isknown as an opposition, and the op¬position about to take place will bemore favorable than the one in 1924,astronomers say.The planet will be nearest theearth, according to Prof. E. B. Frost Maroon Adds UniquePetition to ArchivesA recent addition to the Maroonarchives is a petition dated May 8,1906, signed by 260 students callingthe atention of the University officersto the necessity for reorganization ofThe Daily Maroon.R.

Prof. Ross will bring the in¬strument back to the Yerkes obser¬vatory for use during the Mars op¬position.Explain TheoryExplaining the theory upon whichthe apparatus is based Prof. Frostsays, “Important observations weremade at the Lick observatory ofMars, and seemed to show a largerdiameter and different appearance offor it will be the Polar cap with violet rays than learned about Mars in 1924 was the pi 4M |TW|VpI?QITVresult of careful measurements of 1 Lilli Ul 11 I LAJ11 1the thermal radiation from the plan¬ets made at the Lowell observatoryat Flagstaff, Ariz., by Messrs. Co-blentz and Lampland and at the Mt.Wilson .observatory by Messrs. Pettitand Nicholson. Perfect accordancecould not be expected for such dif¬ficult observations, but they indicatedthat there was a great range of tem¬perature on the planet between dayand night, amounting at times to 200degrees above zero. It was alsofound that more heat came from thedarker portions of the planet, hither¬to believed by some to be water orswamps, than from the brighter orred parts commonly supposed to bedesert sands. This is contrary toexpectations and is not yet explained.It seems that the temperature onthe planet’s surface at midday maybe well above the freezing point ofwater, but except in the portionwarmed by the mid-night sun, thetemperature at night would be des¬perately low. This suggests thateven lichens or the hardiest mosswould find difficulty to live and growunder such adverse conditions.” COLLEGE PUBLICLECTURE SERIESNew Campus Courses to beGiven at DowntownColleges ics department, and Prof. Julius Steig-litz of the Chemistry department.Tickets for the whole series or sin¬gle lectures may be obtained throughthe University College, 116 So.

It is expect¬ed that ninety or more Frosh willhave reported by the end of theweek. They will be under the tute¬lage of Coaches Huntington, StaggJr., and Fisher. Ends and BacksCaptain Big TenFive of this year’s Big Ten cap¬tains are players of the end posi¬tion, while the other five are back-field stars. Smith of Iowa, Kas¬sel of Illinois, Hogan of Purdue,Wheeler of Minnesota and Sibleyof Indiana are all wing men ofmerit, while Marks of Chicago,FYiedmand of Michigan, Harmonof Wisconsin, Karow of Ohio, andBaker of Northwestern are backs.There is nothing unusual aboutthe selection of so many backfieldmen, as that is a yearly occur¬rence. The development of thepassing game in modern footballcircles has brought the end posi¬tion to the front and made it ri¬val the backfield in honors, whichprobably accounts for the selec¬tion of so many wing men on thisyear’s teams.STAGG LEADS INUNSHARED TITLESOnly One Tie In SevenChampionshipsChicago has won seven ConferenceChampionships in the history of BigTen football, the percentage basis be¬ing employed to compute the stand¬ing of the teams for eath year from1896 down to the present time. TheMaroons of ’99, ’05, ’07, ’08, *13, ’22,and ’24 were the title winners, andall but one of these teams had a clearstake to the championship. In 1922a very strong Midway eleven sharedthe title with two other undefeatedteams—Iowa and Michigan.Michigan and Minnesota are strongrivals for title honors. Although theWolverines have a record of nineclaims to the championship, no lessthan six of these nine titles have beenshared with other teams by virtue ofties in the standings for those years.Likewise, the Gophers have beenforced to share a number of theirtitles with other elevens. Out ofeight claims to the Championship,only two have been “all-Gopher,” theremaining six being ties with otherteams.This analysis shows Chicago to beway in the lead in the number ofclear cut and unshared claims to thetitle. Wisconsin, Illinois, Ohio andIllinois have one or more clear-titledchampionships, while Northwesternboasts one triple tied claim to thehonor. Purdue and Indiana have nochampionship years listed amongtheir respective pigskin accomplish¬ments.Band to Performat Florida GameRehearsal of the University bandwill start October 1, at 4:45. Theband will make its first appearancethis year at the Florida game.Last year the band was enlargedand presented with new uniforms.

The newnorth stand at Stagg Field is nearlycompleted, and by Friday the work¬ingmen should pack up their tools.Perhaps the most important featureof Chicago’s new stadium is the addi¬tion of nearly double the number ofgood seats. It is anticipated thatpractically all the season ticket hold¬ers will be seated in this new northstand as it holds more than 23,000people. As it is, nearly one halfthis great structure has been reservedfor public season ticket holders.On the south, temporary seats havebeen erected, while the wooden standshave been moved to a position over¬looking the east end of the field, mak¬ing the total capacity for the Flor¬ida game about 50,000. Later on ex¬tra seats will be erected for the Il¬linois and Wisconsin games makingit possible for 55,000 people to crowdwithin the gates of Stagg Field be¬fore the end of the season.The new press stand located on the| top of the now north stand affordspress accommodations for nearlydouble the number of reporters whowere accommodated last year.
