No. 12 UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 15, 1926 Price Five Cent*WHAT OFIT?^Geot^eMngmtemWell, the boys got their pep sesion.They had a long, hard battle to do it,but truth and justice triumphed inthe end. The faculty, you know, wasset against it. Like Comstocks pour¬ing the Demon Rum down, the sewerafter a successful raid on the villagedrug store, they have through theyears drained off all the “college” ina place that never, in its most inspiredmoments, was ever even passably col¬legiate. With the empty bottles (tocontinue my figure) lying empty andapparently harmless in the gutter, theauthorities still felt that things werenot entirely according to the (faculty)heart’s desire They wanted to getrid of the faint whiff that still clunginside the liqnor jugs? Hence the in¬terdict against pep sessions.• * • •But the boys showed fight. Theydid not sit passively back and takewhat the authorities saw fit to dishout to them. Nay! They lay backtheir ears and howled. Their cheerleaders stormed the Dean’s office.Waves of public opinion made the at¬mosphere of Cobb 204 unbearable.The Dean and the rest relented. Theyallowed the hoys their pep session.It was, the boys feel in looking back,a nice pep session. Fully a half dozentraffic rules were broken. The OldMan, trying to make a speech, wasdrowned out by hoarse throats shout¬ing his name to the heavens. Such wasthe milling over at the EnglewoodStation that some of the ath-a-leteshad a hard time getting on to thetrain in time. A nice time—very nice,and—even more—that it will put thefootball team into the right attitude,of do or die for old Chicago. This, ofcourse, is almost too much to expectfrom the pep session—nice as it was.* * * *Speaking of college life (we were,weren’t we?), I’m going down toChampaign tonight and see it in therah. (I dedicate that little quip to theblessed memory of Sew Covert, nowwearing short pants in his capacityof Field Executive for the Boy Scoutsof America—PERIOD, as Phil Allensays). For long months the chargesof Wilfrid O. Cross have been spoilingmy sleep. One of the dear old Hitch¬cock Hall boys, I could not believeall those things about the boys andgirls down at the Twin Cities. Andso, I’m going down to see for myselfif Mr. Cross was right. It’ll be Home¬coming, so I’ll have just about thebest opportunity of the year of seeingthe seamy side of things (if any). Ofcaurse, much as it grieves me, I shallbe unable to report to my followerswhat the conditions are. For to saythat I found the charges of Mr. Crossentirely unfounded would be a confes¬sion of defeat; and to say that I didn’t—that would be telling.* * * *Mr. A1 Kruez was the nemesis ofthe Maroons at Penn last year. Hemight have been again this year butfor Mr. Thayer, present captain of theQuakers. Kruez was the logical manfor captain, but since he was Kruezand a native of Manistee (Mich.) orsome other such place, and the othercandidate was Thayer, of the PHIL¬ADELPHIA THAYERS, he was didout of the job. Kruez played on Kal¬amazoo Normal, or (again) some suchplace, for a year before he went toPenn. The fact wasn’t mentioned un¬til Mr. Thayer decided he wantedto be captain. Then it was dug outof the dust, and the decree was madethat the year at Kalamazoo barredKruez from playing the full threeyears at Penn. And that, children, iswhy Thayer is captain, and also whyMr. Stagg’s boys don’t have to worryabout that rough fellow A1 KruezSaturday. NOMINATIONS GO TO COUNCILGRADS GET NEW CLUB HOUSESITUATED NEARCAMPUS; TO BECOMPLETE SOONFurnishings to be SelectedAccording to Ideasof StudentsGraduate and professional studentsare to have their own clubhouse, ac¬cording to Edgar N. Johnson of theGraduate Club Executive Committee.Their new rendezvous will be situatedbetween the Quadrangle Club and thePhi Kappa Sigma house on Univer¬sity Avenue, and will be open in thenear future for the use of these stu¬dents.The equipment for the new househas not been provided as yet.

Accordingly the Fellows Clubwill hold a meeting in Harper As¬sembly Room, Tuesday, October nine¬teenth, at twelve o’clock, noon. Themeeting will be devoted to gatheringideas for the equipping and furnish¬ing of the new house.This is the first step the Univer¬sity has taken to make the studentbody of the University socially andactively felt, according to the execu¬tive committee. With a clubhouse onthe campus it is believed that theprofessional students will play amore active role in University life.They outnumber the undergraduatesalmost two to one.The new club house was formerlythe Theological building situated onthe corner of 57th Street anfi Uni¬versity avenue. It was moved andand remodelled early this fall.

Yerkes Observatory,decided to sacrifice priceless eyes onthe altar of science.Last December gave birth to thenews that the Copernicus of the cen¬tury had become totally blind.And now we learn that Mars, thepossibly inhabited world that virtu¬ally rebounded from the earth twoyears ago, is due for another neigh¬borly visit.

These havebeen drawn from the professional schools and the dormitories. Thenew graduate club across the tennis courts from the Quadrangle clubis seeking to get the campus graduate students solidly behind it toform an organization unique in American universities. The apathywhich our numerous and scholastically distinguished graduate bodyhas proverbally shown to campus life seems about to depart.As undergraduates we welcome this awakening on the part ofour once "silent partners.” Graduate campus spirit and graduateactivities will of course be different than those in which undergrad¬uates participate. But when the most numerous group on the quad¬rangles emerges from its laboratories and libraries to enter into amore intimate companionship, to live more of a university life inthe broadest sense of that phrase, we will have an atmosphere hereunlike anything else in the country. We give the graduates our praiseand encouragement in their new undertaking.“FATHER’S DAY”npHOSANDS of fathers will be on the campus next Saturday, Oct.2 3 to look us over. They will tour the campus, see the Chicago-Purdue football game, dine together and attend a student vaudevilleprogram. They will have a first opportunity to view the Universityand its students while in action.The plan of a "Father’s Day" is a brand new one at the Uni¬versity but we think it will succeed and should succeed for it will fur¬nish an opportunity for a close contact between father and studentand between father and the University.\Dean Boucher has ventured the opinion that the fathers will goaway with greater confidence and assurance that their children arebeing well taken care ef. And after all that is worth while, for oqrfathers and should attend to making reservations for football ticketsdaughters.Though letters have been sent to the father of every under¬graduate, some 3,300 in all, the success of the plan rests largelywith the students. They should write letters of invitation to theirfathers and should attend o making reservations for football ticketsin the special block of seats set aside by Coach Stagg.We think it a good plan fraternities and clubs to arrange spe¬cial luncheons for the fathers of their members and pledges and forthe non-fraternity students to plan to take lunch with their fatherson Saturday noon. That is the only part of he day’s entertainmentthat has not been arranged by the committee in charge of the event.President Max Mason, Coach Alonzo A. Stagg and Dean-hauncey Boucher are behind the project. They see the importanceof forming closer contacts with our fathers.

The traveling and shipping public isfairly well acquainted with the movement of trains, butthe activities.of a railroad cover far more than that.For example, only about one-sixth of the railwayemployes of the country are engaged directly in trainservice. Just as in wartime the front-line trenches areoccupied by only a relatively small part of an army, soin the railway service there are several employes in sup¬port and reserve for every one who directly providestransportation by manning the trains.Most railroads of any size are organized by depart¬ments, each reporting to a vice-president or officer ofequal rank, although both the relative importance ''fthe departments and the rank of the officers in chargevary from road to road. The executive departmentordinarily consists of the president and the heads ofthe various other departments and therefore is not adistinct line of work in itself, although in recent yearsit has added to its administrative functions in manyinstances the specialized duty of developing and main¬taining pleasant relations with the public.The operating department is charged with the run¬ning of trains and the maintenance of the railroad andof its equipment.The traffic department is charged with building upand maintaining the volume of business of a railroad,and* that includes the development of the railroad'sterritory.The purchasing department must spend economicallythe millions of dollars that go into the channels of tradeannually for the materials and supplies essential to rail¬way operation and must store and distribute thesearticles in an effective manner.The accounting and treasury department keeps therecords of the railroad and takes in and pays out itsmillions of- dollars of annual receipts and expenditures.The law department safeguards the interests of therailroad in the courts and out, making sure in advancethat all the activities of the railroad conform to law andto the many intricacies of railway regulation.In addition to these ordinarily major departments,there are a good many other departments almost equallyessential to railway operation but grouped under theselarger departments for convenience in organization.Many of these minor departments provide distinct linesof work in themselves, calling for the best efforts ofskilled business and professional men and offering re¬wards commensurate with those to be found in cor¬responding lines of work outside the railroads.The work done by the various departments of a rail¬road will be explained in greater detail in succeedingadvertisements of this series.Constructive criticism and suggestions are invited.L.

Why is every copy ofthe American Photoplay taken per¬manently? The periodical depart¬ment in Harper library subscribes to3500 magazines, but about twentyof these which are used most fre¬quently are taken and never return¬ed.The number that disappear is verysmall compared to the number re¬ceived, but it is the time and effortrequired to replace them that makestheir disappearance a problem. Theissue of the Dial for July, 1924, isstill missing in spite of the work ofseveral agencies in tracing a copy.Some bound volumes have been cutand tom, and these may never beable to be replaced.When a fifteen cent magazine dis¬appears it sometimes costs the librarymore than five times its original costto replace it. An order for a period¬ical has to be checked by five clerksbefore it reaches the dealer. Whena magazine is received it goesthrough five other clerks. All thiscauses expenses and trouble thatwould be unnecessary if the readerswere more social in their attitudes,according to the librarian.By Lucille Price-BenedictWe who have all, at one time oranother suffered at the hands of evil¬meaning sympathetic relatives, re¬joice that Miss Macaplay in her“Crewe Train'” makes them thetarget of her sparkling satire.

Her indolent happiness wasdoomed by an outrageous promoterwho started a bus line to Andorra,and thus opened a way for relativesto follow. Five of them arrived onthe first bus, and Mr. Dobie died ofthe shock. They were kind-heartedrelatives and realized at once thatsomething had to be done about Den¬ham, so they took her to London.What London did to Denham, andDenham did to London, and how :senougm to fill anyone with mirth.This is Rose Macaulay at her best.“The Unearthly”Robert Hicjien’s “The Unearthly”falls far below the market by “TheGarden of Allah.”' Imogen Lowrie,a gay, selfish, young intellectual wastoying with the idea of marryingHugo Dennistone, who boasted six-feet of handsome body, but a smallpercentage of brain capacity.

In despair she turned toPeter for help, and thru his influenceshe evolved out of her troubles aconventional “new woman.” Theproblem of whether Imogen shouldmarry Hugo or not is stretched outto such length that it becomes dulland stupid.“Daphne Bruno”“Daphne Bruno” is another storythat is too long winded. Mr. Ray¬mond could have told his tale in onevolume by omitting non-essentials.However, “Daphne Bruno” does havethe virtue of sustaining the reader’sinterest straight to the end.

The actor de¬serves to be especially commended forhis remarkable skill in developing hischaracters.' “It's Not Done”William C.

John has an abundantsupply of animal spirits, but hewants them satisfied in a romanticand delicate manner. His wife onthe other hand can only respond to“cave-man’’ treatment.

The Phi Gams usually havegood parties, and we see no reason tobelieve this one will be an exception.We remember a hard times party lastfall that was a wow.Friday the fifteenth is also thedate of a dinner given by the Inter¬national Students Association.Since the football game is at Pennthis week, there will probably befewer teas. However Delta Sigmahas registered a radio tea Saturday,and several more of these are ex¬pected. Listening to a football gameover the radio has at least one ad¬vantage.

Thereis not enough originality in a greatdeal of our American art,” said Mr.Taft. “It is a jumble of motifs bor¬rowed from the past, having no spe¬cial connection with our modern life.While these things meant much tothe people who created them, theymean nothing to us. When the Goth¬ic style was in full bloom, one of itscharacteristics was that the orna¬mental details of a building were tak¬en from the flowers of that region.The people put themselves and theirlives into their art. That is part ofthe definition of Gothic art today.Modern art has lost that knack. Ourpeople simply copy those old detailsas the Romanesque style copiedthings from other work. Our mindsare not active. Americans do notuse the things about them.“An enterprising architect willtake the significant* decorations fromsome old tomb and put them on agreat business block in an Americancity. So you see copies of skulls ofcattle, garlands, and festoons on mod¬ern buildings. I believe there is onebuilding in New York where they ac¬tually have, as a part of the decora¬tions the lachrymal urns to hold thetears of the mourners.”In speaking of the progress towardbetter art work Mr. Taft said,* “Inmy life I have noticed a wonderfulprogress. There is a very greatly in¬creased interest in these things.There is talent budding in everyschool. All that we need is the en¬couragement that comes from appre¬ciation, and there will be no end ofgood art production in this country.Our young people need the encour¬agement to back their talent.“I deplore the fact,” he said,speaking of opportunities for art ap¬preciation, “that there is very littleto inspire art even in our largercommunities. I want to see a greattemple of art at our State Universitywhich is a place where young peoplecome to live for four years, theireyes open to all kinds of wonders ofscience and literature. The same istrue of Chicago. We have advan¬tages here, and things are developingbut we have little of beauty to of¬fer the eager-eyed young people whoare looking for inspiration to lastall their lives.”MIDWAY BOOTERY936 E. 55th StreetUniversitySpecial offer tostudents10% DiscountWe Carry a Complete Line of High Grade Shoes.R ROSENSTOCIC, Prop.OFF THE SHELF ON THE BOARDSBy William Jost, Jr.In view of the despotic autocracyof comedy-drama, comedy and musi¬cal revue and the humiliating sub¬jugation of intelligent emotionaldrama it is no small wonder that thecinema generates hourly, the LittleTheater group weekly and the fire¬place library monthly.An even more astouding surprisehowever is the fact that thesecomedy-dramas, comedies and danc¬ing revues are able and cunningenough to keep the proletariat publicso long amused. Even the most petu¬lant critic of the current theatre con¬cedes the premise that one of everythree plays is so enthralling as tocause the auditor to forget that hewanted to leave early to catch thelast express.The Poor Nut“The Poor Nut” is one suchcomedy. Elliot Nugent, a graduate’of Ohio State, if I am informed cor¬rectly, with assistance of Nugent Sr.wrote the libretic and has done withit, as good, perhaps a triffle betterthan if it had been written by a popu¬lar magazine fiction writer. The partbetter is that portion pertaining tothe rushing of John Miller by the PsiSigma boys. You see, the play spinsaround the locale of Ohio State Uni¬versity, the track team, the bookstore and the fraternity lounge andall else that John Allison imparted toyou in The PhoenixAs a pioneering college play, cut¬ting down the underbrush and blaz¬ing the trees of what will later cometo be known as the “Do’s and Don’tsof College Plays” it registers quitewell. Thefce lies within the lines allthe wise college wrinkles which arenever said by college men, but whichpeople still believe college men crackand so most every one laughs up¬roariously. There stands in the struc¬ture of the play all the incidents andscenes of university life which onemay discern in the cinema and ingaudy embellished periodicals, but thesimple souled theatre goer believes heis being led in on the ground floor ofcollege and sits tense and overawed.Nugent is capital as the “Poor Nut”,and Norma Lee as the winsome he¬roine, and Betty Garde as the vixen.For the sake of seeing the theatricalmirror of the p< pular conception of“college”, for the enjoyment to be de¬rived from Mr. Nugent, the playmerits your attendance.“First Love”What Fay Bainter and Bruce Mc¬Rae try to make of this Shubert pro¬duction in the Selwyn is somethingquite like a vodvil skit, somethingalmost consanguineous to a “La Pari-essien.” It is so edifiyng, so enlight¬ening, that had a novice nun witnes¬sed the performance, she would atonce praise the blessing giver for having so heartlessly deprived theworld from more plays like this. AndI am not so sure but what the mostcalloused night-lifer, would have as¬sented to her thanksgiving. In short,if all the theatres in town were pad¬locked, save the Selwyn. Your bestbet would be the movies. The origi¬nal play “Pile ou Face” comes fromthe illustrious Louis Vemeuil, but Irather suspect—and with hope—thatthe adaptation has been shamelesslydistorted.The fundamental principle, spins’round a dishinerited musician andhis consort who live together in ut¬ter poverty. They are given two op¬portunities for wealth; he to marryhis father’s partner’s daughter, andshe, the chance to obtain all shewants from a wealthy baron for whatshe terms the “selling” of herself.The play terminates in all the goodtaste of a Rex Beach novel. Thehero clasps the heroine to his breastand sneers derisively at his forebear;who pleads for the son’s forgivenesswith the family jewels and the bankroll in either fist.You have heard of Fay Bainter and”possibly have had the pleasure ofauditing some of her performances.She is cunning, dainty and exceeding¬ly adept at frisking and skipping andis miracuously adroit. She amuseswith skill and entertains with capa¬bility. Mr. McRae turns in for themost part a sonorous exhibition anddoes whatever he can to build up, byhis own efforts^* flimsy, wabbly play,which has for its sole excuse for exis-tance, a good idea and an unoccupiedtheatre.“The Coconuts”The Erlanger Theater broke itsshell the other evening with the open¬ing of this new vehicle for th/e MarxBrothers. The Erlanger is jyst theold Palace renamed, but “The Coco¬nuts” is a new play for the funni¬est frolickers on the stage, each re¬plated with a bag ef new tricks.There are, I suspect, actors toho areregarded by some evaluators of the.theatre superior to these buffons, butfor me, that evaluator errs.Wheiy they were here in “I’ll SayShe Is,” a year or so ago, they en¬joyed a stay of several months andtheir Chicago habitat now may be de¬termined only by their will powerover Broadway homesickness.
