UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 6, 1926 Price Five CentsWHAT OFIT?tern HOMECOMERS VIEW BIG GAME“YALE” DOWNS “HARVARD })A report has gone around that paidoperatives of the enemy have beenworking through the week in an ef¬fort to put Captain Wally Marks ofthe Maroons into such shape that hewill be unable to do himself full jus¬tice against Illinois this afternoon. Itbegan Thursday,, when Wally wasprevailed to go over to the Trianon,that shrine of the more humble de¬votees of the dance on Cottage Groveavenue. Announcements of Marks’appearance were broadcast earlier inthe week, and when Wally appearedon Mr. Andrew Karzas’ \vell-oiledfloor, he was greeted by all the bellesof Forty-seventh street and pointssouth. The Trianon “Ballroom Top¬ics” of last Sunday had this to sayabout who would be the ones to keepWally busy through the evening:“Numbers will be distributed to everylady attending, and a drawing will beheld, the lucky numbers drawn en¬titling the holders to a dance withWally. These selected ladies will alsoappear in moving pictures with Wallywhich will be taken at the ballroom.Everybody attending the ’CampusFrolics’ will get in on the movies.Here’s your chance folks—don’t for¬get next Thursday at the Trianon.”* * * *It is a matter of record that Wallysubmitted himself to the arduous pro¬gram outlined by Mr. Andrew Karzas,in conjunction with Mr. Tom Sheehy,Mr. Karzas’ estimable local agent. Hedanced with the “lucky numbers” andwas filmed with the crowd at the‘Campus Frolics.’ It was a big eve¬ning. And then, the next day—onlyyesterday, Wally came back for morepunishment. He got up in time forPhil Allen’s eleven o’clock, took hisdaily workout under the fatherly eyeof Mr. Stagg, ate his dinner at theSigma Nu house, combed his hair, andrepaired to Mr. Andrew Karzas’ Ara¬gon, shrine of the North Side slavesof la danse! At the Aragon Wallywent through with the same programas the night before. Again he dancedwith the “selected ladies,” and again hewas filmed with the “lucky numbers.”That, as I say was only last night.* * * *But there is still more. Earlier yes¬terday, before trekking to the Ara¬gon, Wally appeared around the cam¬pus in a new roadster, bearing on itsspare tire cover the legend,WALLY MARKSCaptain, Chicago Football TeamCourtesy CarPopoff MotorsIn this sumptuous vehicle Wally oc¬cupied his leisure hours. He was seenabout Cobb, and Jackson Park. When,during practice, Wally was forced toabandon his roadster, he seemed pre¬occupied, his mind somewhere else.* * * *I merely detail all these things asindicative of one fact—that it mustall be part of some preconcertedscheme on the part of the enemy tolessen Wally's mechanical advantageto Mr. Stagg and dear old Chicagothis afternoon. But after all, I sup¬pose, when a man can enjoy the ad¬vantages of a roadster and hordes ofadoring “selected ladies,” why shouldhe not do so? There are few of uspoor mortals, who looking at Wallywith his roadster and “lucky num¬bers,” can refrain from thinking in ourhearts: “There, but for the perversityof God, go I” The moral to all this, Isuppose, is: “If ya get the breaks, yaRet ’em; if ya don’t, shut up”* * * *But, as a loyal Chicago man, whodoes not forge’t the team in his night¬ly prayers, I hope that Mr. Marks’verve and efficiency are not lessenedby his recent social obligations. FROSH PERFORMWELL FOR GRADSIN ANNUAL GAMEBlue Team Scores EarlyIn Battle; OutshinesCrimson OutfitA long pass, Mendenhall to Burgessspelled defeat for the Harvard co¬horts in yesterday’s annual Freshmantilt held before a huge Homecomingcrowd. The fi nal score of 7-0 tellslittle of the type of play exhibited, asthe Crimson was at no time able topenetrate the Bulldog’s defense, whilethey offered little opposition to theBlues attack.Five minutes after play had beenstarted, and after an exchange of puntsthe Blue scored on a twenty yard passwith which the receiver galloped thesame distance to cross the goal line.Burgess then kicked the goal to endPlayer* NervousThe game was marked by frequentfumbles and penalties on both sides.Both these miscues can be traced tothe same source —nervousness. Theyearlings were too anxious in theirbig game of the season. Except forthis fault they played much like vet¬erans, showing a diversity of attack,and a style of play which would haveput teams of much greater experienceto shame.Many StarsBurgess of the Yale squad provedthe star of the game, smashing througrthe line and backing up his forwardwall with equal ability. The passingof Holahan also a Blue player, spokewell for the success of next year's var¬sity aerial attack. Other players whosho|wed up well were Riddle, Brown,Priess, Greer, and Abbott of the win¬ning team, and McCurry, Wattenbergof the losers.The Yale line proved to be excep¬tionally strong, breaking up everything which was hurled against it,while they charged so fiercely thatpractically every Crimson play wassmashed before it had fairly gainedmomentum.Harvard ThreatensHarvard’s one chance to score fail¬ed to materialize when an attemptedplace kick from the 25 yard line inthe second quarter was blocked byBrown. Yale recovered the ball andpulled well out of danger.Practically every man on the fresh¬man rooster saw action during thecourse of the afternoon as frequentsubstitutions were made on bothsides.

Precedingthe big session, what cheer leaderscalled the biggest demonstration everseen on the University campus, sev¬eral hundred students executed asnake dance around the campus andthe University district.Thursday afternoon the Frosh andthe band practiced their cheers, whilethe Varsity practiced bucking Illinoisplays.“We have tried harder than everbefore to bring the crowds out to thepep session and to inspire the “Beat Il¬linois” spirit this last week.

It wasawarded the Shield after a committeecomposed of Vice-Pres. Woodward,Frank O’Hara, and Mrs. Merrill hadcarefully considered all of the elab¬orate decorations sported along Frat¬ernity Row.James Cusack, president of TheCouncil, highly commended the workof the committee in charge of theHouse Decorations Contest.

No wonder there issuch competition between the boys. Bill Weddell, head cheerleader, willbe unable to perform in his officialcapacity today At the pep meetingheld Thursday evening outside StaggField, Bill sprained his ankle whileleading a skyrocket yell. Although hisankle did not give any trouble for sev¬eral hours, late reports indicated thathe would be disabled for today’sgame. Weddell is the second non-combatant to be injured this week,Coach Stagg having received a “char-ley-horse” when he got mixed up ina scrimmage Wednesday. One of Wed¬dell’s assistants or some returningalumni cheerleader will take Bill’splace today. The “All-Star” touchball game, in¬troduced by the I-M Department asa part of this year’s Homecoming cel¬ebration, rivaled the Frosh “Yale-Harvard” game in interest yesterdayafternoon.The “Maroons,” coming back in thesecond half to intercept passes andturn them into scoring plays, over¬came a 6-0 lead that the “Jugglers”held all through the first period. Theywon the game by a 12 to 6 score onforward passes to Gordon and Pollard.The Jugglers also got their score ona long pass, Bartlett to Scherubal.Other stars of the g ante were JimCurtain and George Lott for the vic¬tors, and Verg Gist and Tohi Arm¬strong for the Jugglers.The players were selected from Frat-.ernity and Club League teams becauseof excellent playing during the sea¬son. The game was held on CrislerField, and was re'ereed by Bill King.All other touchball games for theday were called off in order to centerthe interest on this big affair. Accord¬ing to Gordon Wallace, IntramuralManager, the game is to be made anannual event to serve as entertain¬ment for Homecomers each year, andto give the players something to workfor during the season.Season’s ScoresChicago 12Chicago 21Chicago 0;Chicago 0;Chicago 0;Illinois 28;Illinois' 33;Illinois 13;Illiniis O;Illinois 3; Chicago; Florida 6.; Maryland 0.Penn 27.Purdue 6.Ohio StateIllinoisCoe 6.Butler 7.Iowa 6.Michigan 13.Penn 0. 18. LOYAL ALUMNI RETURN TOCHEER MIDWAY ELEVEN INTOUGH SCRAP WITH ILUNITurn Out For ClassicStruggle EighteenThousand StrongA generation of old grads—eighteenthousand of them—have come home torevoice their mouldy cheers and un¬dying, if somewhat musty, spirit forCoach Stagg’s bloody but unbowedMaroons. And that same generationhas come home not only to peer fromthe grandstand with a “....now in’95 ” but also to see how the oldschool has managed to pull alongwithout them for the past two, five,or twenty years.The campus has opened its arms toits sons and daughters, and the under¬graduates have escorted the eighteenthousand around the quadrangles,showing them with fact and fancy thatthings have changed.But they have also been shown somethings that never change,—the “oldChicago spirt,” for instance, which isthe same now “....as in ’95 ”Yesterday afternoon they witnessedFritz Crisler’s fighting Freshmen inaction, then proceeded to the Mixerat Ida Noyes hall.Last night’s ruckus started with thealumni dinner in Hutchinson com¬mons. From there the eighteen thou¬sand adjourned to Mandel hall to jointhe big pep session.After the fuss is over, the eighteenthousand will pour into various andsundry fraternity houses, club houses,theatres and other odd places—prob¬ably to tell the boys how it was“.... in ’95.”CHICAGO’S MAMMOTHDRUM MAKES FIRSTAPPEARANCE OF YEARChicago’s big brass drum makes itsfirst appearance of the season, todayat 1:10 in front of Mandel hall.On a balloon tired vehicle drawnby two men, it will take its placemidst a bevy of bandsmen in the pro¬cession from Mandel and over StaggField. E. L. Milkwick, as drummer,will do his bit by making resoundingnoises issue forth.The drum, eight feet one inch indiameter was presented to Chicago byC. D. Greenleaf of the class of eighty-nine. Two large stears from the Chi¬cago Stockyards were required tomake the heads which are of one pieceeach. Due to miscarried plans, thedrum has not been out at previousgames this year.

Yesterday while the Illini weresnapping through their signals onStagg field Zuppke said, “It will beanybody’s game.” And he said it asif he meant it.Zuppke also announced that Cap¬tain Kassel, all-conference end lastseason who has been troubled withknee injuries this year, would start.Stewart, halfback, will also start inspite of a bad shoulder. Gallivan andGreen, former running mates ofGrange, will be ready to fill in.Lineup UncertainStagg was still uncertain about hisopening lineup last night. He mightstart Marks at a full and then have theabove team play, and then again hemightn’t. In the lattef case Markswill play half in McKinney’s placewith Leyers at full. Kyle Andersonhas almost recovered from his kneeinjury received in the Purdue gameso he will probably get into the gamesooner or later.Besides the game itself there willbe some other things to entertain theeye and ear of the vest congregation.The famous Illinois band will be there—at least 160 pieces of it; and FrostyPeters, the butt of the Illinois public¬ity this year, will also be there withhis boots on.

That applies not only to thefootball game, but to the entire Homecoming program.Ever since the idea of Homecoming was first suggested we haveenthusiastically supported it . At Chicago we are used to seeingalumni return to the campus during the football season. Morethan 15,000 of those at the game this afternoon will be alumni wholive in Chicago.The other alumni are the ones for whom Homecoming is de¬signed primarily. It is an effort to bring back to the Alma Materthose who live away from the University, so that they may havetheir grand reunion with the thousands who live here, run all overthe campus once more, and see a good football game.The first part of the Homecoming program this year has beena huge success. The pep session last night drew a great crowd. Ifenthusiasm means anything the Maroons will walk off the field thisafternoon with the big end of the score.Tonight there will be a conclusion to the two day programand it will be all over until next year. This Homecoming, the sec¬ond annual Homecoming, was greater than that of last year. Nextyear it will be still greater.But before it is over get in your share of the fun . . . while youare in the stands this afternoon, forget that the dignity of Chicagoever existed . . and BEAT ILLINOIS!!SEATSTHE UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS has a habit of entertaining an^ unofficial complaint that the University of Chicago engages inthe annual viciousness of depriving them of all the good seatsand most of the total seats for the Illinois-Chicago game. But wehave heard more than that specific plaint this year; another howlof indignation has presaged the Illini arrival: we did not give themenough seats for their band. All in all, it begins to look as thoughthe Greatest State School has fallen into the ineffectual dispositionof unofficial complaining.Rumors spread to the effect that Illinois threatened a rupture ofathletic relations with us because we had limited their visiting bandto one hundred pieces. These rumors were built, perhaps, on theimagination of the press, but they were none the less unpleasant. Inlimiting the Illinois band to one hundred pieces, we were comply¬ing with the conference agreement of last spring to that effect. Whichfact clinches the argument from any point ot view.Lester F. Blair, director of the football tickets office of the Uni¬versity, informs us that 12,500 seats have been allotted to he Cham¬paign crowd. They have been given the entire e^st stand, 5,000seats in the south stand, and 1,000 seats in the west stand. Andthat is the best tha a ciy of 000,000 persons can do for a univer-siy town—any university town. The University of Illinois footballticket manager is satisfied with his allottment. And his word is of¬ficial. BIG TEN RIVALS TOCLASH TODAY(Continued from page 1)not shown any conference team thisyear. But the fray today will not bedecided by passes. If Purdue with itscrippled tackles can nail the big threeof the Northwestern team, Lewis.Gustafson and Baker and can throughthe strong Northwestern defense forat least one touchdown, then theymight tip the score the right way.Michigan DesperateThe Wolverines and the Badgersmeet at Ann Arbor, in the third Homecoming affair of the afternoon. Stillsmarting under the 10-0 defeat at thehands of the Navy last week, Yostsaggregation is primed to tear into theWisconsin lads and show its stuff.With their conference record stillclear the Michigan squads looks to“Bennie” Friedman and his two de¬pendable ends, Oosterbaan and Florato complete a few long passes duringthe game.In the Cardinal lineup. Burrus andStraubel veteran forwards will be miss¬ing, due to injuries received last Sat¬urday. The Badgers stopped along theroad for a secret practice and will notarrive on the scene till just beforegame time. The Cardinal game willcenter around a defense a againstFriedman and his two ends.Iowa Meets GophersOf less interest is the game betweenIowa and Minnesota at the Iowa Field.Iowa, with nothing but conference de¬feats tacked to her fair name, will tryto put across her first victory for thebenefit of a crowd of 27.000 home-comers.Although Iowa outweighs the Min¬nesotans eight pounds to the man, theGophers look like the stronger team.Seventeen on the Minnesota squadhave a year or more experience onthe 'football field. Joesting, of theGophers, is expected to rip big holesin the heavy Hawkeve team, throughwhich Peplaw and Almquist, hard run¬ning backs are expected to follow.The Gophers have brushed up theirforward pass attack and expect tocross the goal line with their new of¬fense. Byers and Kutsch of Iowa willhear the brunt of the running againstthe Gophers.Indiana and Notre Dame play an¬other of the interesting clashes today,while Ohio has a practice game sched¬uled.CHICAGO HOLDS EDGEWITH SIXTEEN WINS(Con nued from page 1)1909—Ch 14 Ill. 8.1910—Ch 0; Ill. 3.1911—Ch 24 Ill. 0.1912—Ch 10 : Ill. 0.1913—Ch 28; Ill. 7.1914—Ch 7; Ill. 21.1915—Ch 0; Ill. 0.1916—Ch 20 Ill. 7.1917—Ch 0; Ill. 0.1918—Ch 0; Ill. 29.1919—Ch 0; Ill. 10.1920—Ch 0; Ill. 3.J921— Ch 14 ; Ill. 6.1922—Ch 9; Ill. 01923—Ch 0; Ill. 7.1924—Ch 21; Ill. 21.1925—Ch 6; Ill. 13Phone Midway 2320BETTY SHOPStyles up to the MinuteDRESSES $13.75 up -MILLINERY $3.00 up1511 TAST 55th STREETEUGERIE PERMANENT WAVING ANDTHE LATEST SWIRL BOB AREBEAUTIFULLY DONEAT FRENCH BEAUTYSHOPPETelephone MIDWAY 3716FRENCH BEAUTYSHOPLa Verne T.

Both are articles oncollege morals. Daily papers fromcoast to coast have been featuring Mr.Cross. Whether he has provoked thisonslaught, or whether the onslaughtaroused him, we do not know.Cross and Aristotle AgreeOne specific question brought toour attention is "Are College StudentsBad?” Mr. Cross wags his head in theaffirmative. Aristotle, or someoneequally as ancient, is known to havelamented the days of his youth, whenyoung people had more common sense.It seems that we have inherited a badreputation, and our Illini acquaintanceis out to exaggerate.One hundred years ago, according to"The Literary Digest,” there was oneChristian Communicant on the Prince¬ton campus. The University is nowerecting a $1,700,000 chapel. The Uni¬ versity of Illinois has expended $2,-000,000 in the last few years in erect¬ing buildings and furnishing equip¬ment to aid in the advancement of thespiritual welfare of the students. Adean to head a School of Religion hasrecently been installed at the Univer¬sity of North Carolina. Is this con¬sistent with Cross’ theory? Is thismoney being spent to force religiononto young people, or because theyhave expressed a desire for expansionin this field?Quote Daily NewsAs a final argument we cite thisquotation from “The Chicago DailyNews.” “Religious life in the collegeshas never been at a higher level thanit is now, nor has it been markedpreviously by such tolerance and goodwill as prevails at present.”Y.

This extinctanimal possessed the cloven hoof and teeth of a nature which indicatesthat it belongs to the group of grass-eaters.Found in GroupsThe collection consists of one complete skeleton and parts of three others which were found grouped to¬gether as though in the time of astorm they had felt that there wassafety in numbers and had huddled to¬gether for protection, only to betrapped and left to perish. “It is notuncommon to find groups of mammalstogether,” said Dr. Miller, “for evi¬dences of whole herds of buffalo andthousands of other animals have fre¬quently been found in the depths ofhills and cliffs. When this occurs, it isthe assumption that they were prob¬ably suddenly overtaken by some dis¬aster.”"The quest for ancient mammals ismainly a gamble.” Dr. Miller contin¬ued. “for it is impossible to determinedefinitely where they are to be found.But, knowing that there is somethingsomewhere in the cliffs, the excitingsearch is begun. When a choice loca¬tion is found the explorer is rewarded,otherwise his efforts have been futile.But it is all a part of an interestingadventure.”Dr. Miller is now putting togethera skull and jaw of one of the fossils,and as soon as the whole collectionhas been arranged as found in its an¬cient tomb, it will occupy a place ofprominence among the other curios ofWalker Museum.Off The ShelfFrom the shelf this week, we havepicked three recent novels, none of whichhas attracted the interest which seemsits due. The three authors, P. C. Wren,F. M. Ford, and James Stevens who arealready known in modern fiction havepresented three unusual themes, Frenchsecret service, the late war, and woods¬men.“A MAN COULD STAND UP”“A Man Could Stand Up,” the last ofa series of the late war stories writtenby Ford Madox Ford, FLnglish critic andnovelist, refleflets the times in the mosteffective manner of modern writers. Thisvery trite theme seemingly more andmore remote from the immediate prob¬lems of life, has been handled in a stilldifferent way by the author.It is a well-written exposition of thewar of attrition and portrays admira¬bly and not very bloodily, the undesir¬able mental reactions of modern scien¬tific warfare on the mind of a man inaction. If the purpose of the authoris to discourage the glory idea of war,be has achieved it by the farcical rep¬resentations of the rag-time army dur¬ing “the eternal hours when Time it¬self stayed still as the true image ofbloody war.”The successful unravelling of matri¬monial difficulties and a clandestinelove affair involving the hero and aphysiqal instructress who does notknow she is in love, brings in the nec¬essary appeal.“BEAU SABREUR”To the rather jaded reader who islooking for something different in amystery story, “Beau Sabreur,” by P.C. Wren comes as a welcome relief.Those who read “Beau Geste” by thesame author need no introduction tohis plote woven around the FrenchForeign Legion in northern Africa.(Continued on page 4) Two PoemsWALLED GARDENS SULPHUR SMOKEBy Hildegarde Crosby By Leonore OvittA garden within walls you are— That woman'sc hair, once red,1 came to court you from afar.

She tried to chokeThe fire that lay within her.And now, remainsBlue, billowing sulphur smoke,Still warm, and quite unsafeTo stroke.Glinka’s OvertureBeginning of NewSymphony ConcertBy Pearl BloomfieldLast Tuesday the second of the Chi¬cago Symphony Orchestra concertswas given in Mandel hall. The concertopened with the program’s oldest com¬poser: Glinka. The number was theoverture to “Russian and Ludmilla.”The choice of this number was appro¬priate introduction to the following:Rachmaninoff, Strauss, and Sibelius.The rendition by the orchestra of theGlinka number brought out all the ori¬ental color and rich charm of thepiece. The effective contrast of thecomposer’s native folk-songs with mel¬odies and themes from the Persian, theTratar and the Turkish, and beauti¬fully played.0 Glinka’s OvertureOf course,- Rachmaninoff’s Sym-phon y(No. 2. F' Minor) was themainstay of the program. The othermusic, charming and delectable as itis, was purely incidental. Even Si¬belius’ tone poem. "Finlandia,” beauti¬ful and comparatively superficial, wasrendered superflous by contrast. Notthat 1 didn’t enjoy it—but after read¬ing Keats "The Cotter’s SaturdayNight” does seem a little light.Glinka is charming, of course. Mr.Evans, in his lecture preceding theconcert, mentioned the great deal ofcolor which the composer has con¬densed into remarkably simple music.One can’t help liking Glinka, even aft¬er hearing the great masters of “ori¬ental” music — Rimsky-Korsakow,Mussorgsky and Borodin.Rachmaninoff’s SymphonyThe Symphony, No. 2, in FI Minor,was Rachmaninoff’s contribution tothe program. Having never beforeheard the Symphony, my reaction toit was decidedly complicated. As awhole, the number was long-drawn-out, heavy, yet interspersed with bitsof sheer delight. The first movement,although it gets nowhere in particu¬lar, is, as Mr. Mack Evans says, “abeautiful tapestry of sound uponwhich bits of colorful music arethrown.” The harmony is rich butoverdone. Based almost entirely upona simple double-trill theme of four orfive notes, the symphony develop intovarying shades of rhythm and key; atone time the trill theme grades intoan exciting and somewhat startlingcrescendo. The clarinet solo in thesecond movement was one of the mostbeautiful I have ever heard. To sum¬marize, the Symphony /is one thatarouses a keen desire for further ac¬quaintance.Concluding MusicThe last two numbers seemed, afterthe Rachmaninoff Symphony, a bit su¬perfluous. The orchestra and the audi¬ence were both too fatigued to ap¬preciate the imperious, victorious andwearying Strauss “Intermezzo,” andeven the “Finlandia” tone poem bySibelius was uninspired. However, theaudience’s reaction to the last twonumbers was undoubtedly influencedby the newness of the second selec¬tion, the Rachmaninoff Symphony. BY BILL JOSTThe hazard of play producing—likethat of playing the thirty-to-one shotacross the board—would set one tobelieve the vehicle is of sturdy stuff,that it will meet, if not the approvalof critics, at least some especial cate¬gory of humanity. Play producing,when this asurance has not beenmade, endangers the reputation ofthe players, the coffers of the produc¬er, and above all, the even down de¬cadent, deteriorating, Theatre Ithas not been ever set down in per¬centage and fractions, who the great¬est losers of a bad production are*but in all cases the Theatre loses;and in the citation of “BubblingOver,” the Theatre loses far morethan ever the producer and the prin¬ciples have to lose. That a fine livelyand amusing play could not havebeen devised from “Brewsters Mil¬lions” casts a slur, splashes a bloton the ’scutcheon of dramatic art...In some pieces it might be said thatthe pjrinciples deter from the successof it; such is not the case in “Bub¬bling Over.” Mr. Cecil Lean andMiss Mayfield’s speech brings to thestage something so out of the ordi¬nary, the common-place, that the au¬dience begins to smile with approval and in some cases to laugh even whenMiss Mayfield appears, before shehas given any indication that she isto speak. This without doubt is atest of complete success. It is as thoone would think of Ted Lewis everytime one sees a high hat; think ofFrank L. Smith ever ytime one seesa dollar bill. The vaudeville team ofLean and Mayfield brought with themseveral sketches and repartee dia¬logues from the circuit and bringwith the thanksgiving of the au¬dience. Rranker Woods, as the but¬ler, is a comic fellow you may haveseen in and about musical comediesand if Mr. Woods finds an able tutorand adviser you may see more of him.The dancing team of Thalia Zanonand Alberto de Lina, who do thosetangoes, Valencias et cetera made sopopularly notorious by the late Ital¬ian cinema luminary, add the oneother color of brilliance to the pro¬duction.As an interpretation for the stageof “Brewster’s Millions,” the pieceflops, as entertainment it flops and asa good investment for those so inter¬ested, I am made to believe by itssudden departure, is has disastrouslyflopped. Man Behind Plow KnowsMore Than Horse—CriticDon’t Try to Read Everything—Let the Professionals AssistYou in Selecting Your Mental Food.By MARY JEAN ALDENWe are told that the best way to keep up-to-the-minute in modemfiction is to keep a little behind it. The person who breaks his neck (soto speak) to read every well-advertised novel that comes out soon getsdowdy in his literary conversation. The safe and sane way to travel isto wait quietly and patiently until the best critics have given you the coldfacts regarding which of the forty well-advertised novels are best. Youmay have four on this list, maybe more, probably less.The millennium has not yet arrived when all the novels heraldedin the fly leaves of The American Mercury are worth the paper theyare printed on. That day is yet a longMunicipalMiniatureTheatre MovementHelped by CampusTwelve Year Old Child ShamesCollegians In Literary CriticismsBy Robert TiekenA few days ago in casually glancingthrough a current number 'of VanityFair I noticed the heading “A Child’sImpressions of Lewis, Mencken, Cabell,Arlen, and Others.” Remembering Bar¬ry and his enthusiasm for girl prodigyof some years ago and, how terriblethe venture turned out, I stopped andread the article expecting to be highlyamused. Instead I was first amazed andthen highly interested. I debated withher on some points, acknowledged oth¬ers, and in fact read the article with asmuch enjoyment and profit as would bepossible in reading any of the most rec¬ognized of literary critics writing forour most intellectual magazines. I turnedback to the editor’s note at the beginningof the article to reassure myself aboutthe child part. There in large print wasthe statement that the girl was twelveyears old and that she was doing a seriesof articles for the same publication.I have read the majority of the cur¬rent book reviews that appear in themagazines and the newspapers. I havebeen a patient listener at a great manypseudo-literary discussions. I have meta great many people that have read agreat deal and are willing to talk aboutwhat they have read. But never have Iheard of a person who has at the ageof twelve read with the voracity thatthis young woman has, and, grantingthat she could possibly read them, hav¬ing good eyesight and learned her let¬ters, I have never heard of a person thathas read with such intelligence at such an uncanny age. Nor have I never heardof very many who have read with suchintelligence at any age.For example to quote “At the age ofnine I had head all of Dickens, Thack-ery, Scott, and Shakespeare at tenI had read Hary’s ‘Tess of the D’Uber-villes’ and ‘Jude and Obscure,’ Butler’s‘The Way of All Flesh,’ a good dealof Leonard Merrick whom I admiredtremendously, ‘The Captain’s Doll’ by D.H. Lawrence, practically all of De Mau¬passant, Balzac and Dumas, much ofFlaubert, all of Ibsen’s plays, and thecurrent American and English novels.”Qr “There seems to be a great dearthof genius in America... .though there ismuch talent—for we have Fannie Hurst,Edna Ferber, Margaret Wilson, CarlVan Vechten, Theodore Dreiser, Sin¬clair Lewis, Leonard Cline, Ruth Suck-ow, Sherwood Anderson and others.”These quotations but enumerate a fewof the things she has read. Then thereis her criticism: Cabell and occasionallyFannie Hurst writing for sheer love ofbeauty words, and ideas; Mencken, Lew¬is, Hecht and Van Vechten destrunion¬ist with no building tendencies; DosPassos, bitter, lengthy, and incoherent.These of course are but generalities andwe know little about them can say thesame but she does not stop there butproceeds to analize each one carefullyand as though that were not enoughthrows in a few extras. This I mustremind you again was written by atwelve year old girl. By George WestermanChicago has been heralded as thecenter of the so-called “Little TheaterMovement.” This movement was cli¬maxed when the Kenneth SawyerGoodman theater was completed inGrant Park. Students on the campushave been turning more and more tothe little theater for entertainment. Atfirst it was mere curiosity that prompt¬ed this attention. The Bohemian sec¬tion of the city on the near north side“slummin g” district harbors someseven “hole-in-the-wall” stages. The.dramatic offerings of these miniatureplayhouses have been free from theblue pencil of the censor and outsidethe scathing sarcasm of the critic. Ithas been with an*amused attitude thatstudents and people-about-town haveregarded these cock-pits of ham acting.“Desire Under the Elms” made therounds long before it appeared up¬town. “The God of Vengeance” hasbeen staged a number of times.Status ChangesWithin the last two years, however,the status of the “little theater” hasbeen in a slow process of meamorpho-sis. “The Little Theatre Monthly,” apublication of some quality and char¬acter, has urged along the movement,and, to some extent, legitimized it.In a recent article entitled “TheLittle Theatre—What It Is,” by Mr.S. M. Tucker, he bemoans the fact thatcurrent dramatic literature dealingwith the stage has entirely ignoredthe movement. He cites the fact thecolleges and universities have launchedtheir dramatic societies in the “littletheatre” channels as a promising stepin the future of the little theatre.Freer Than Commercial StageThese unquenchable advocates of theminiature stage seem to believe thatdramatics are given a freer, more nat¬ural opportunity to develop when notcommercialized and forced into thestilted moulds formed by proletariandemand.In Chicago the best example of themore-or-less Bohemian type of “littletheatre” is the Little Theatre Club at1359 North Clark Street, The Duo-Arttheatre on Delaware "street, the Radi¬cal Book Shop Repertory theatre,and the orgiastic den of Jack Jones’at the famous Dill Pickle Club. Theinterest shown by curious campus menand women have even led to a littletheatre at a place called The Grotto atCottage Grove and 57th. What willthe next step be?Bohemian MovementsAccording to Mr. Tucker, the au¬thor of the aforementioned article, weare about to witness a great develop¬ment of the amateur theatre. This, ofcourse, would be all to the good, aseven the professionals admit, that thecommercialized stage is rapidly “goingto the dogs.” And who, pray, will pickup the torch when the big playhousesdowntown are completely given overto burlesque shows (of a new sort)if not the simple amateur? way off.But out of the last batch of forty orfifty novels the following seemed tohave been given the O. K. of thecritics:The fifth of the Carl Van Vechtennovels (we mention him first becausehe is a graduate of the University ofChicago) is hailed as “the smart novel”of the season. “Nigger Heaven”(Knopf) takes its name from the sec¬tion of New York city where thenegro rules supreme, commonly knownas the Harlem. The lives and prob¬lems of the inhabitants are writtenover the entire 284 pages. Hero andheroine are so-called “new negroes”which means that they are educated,intelligent, yet sharing the emotionsof the race. The novel is by no meansconfined to their strata but runs thegamut from low to high life. The YaleReview says it is “pointed, if not pro¬found.”Edna Ferber’s Show Boat”Ferber’sThere is also Miss Ednawell-heralded “Show Boat” on ourlist. It is, so to speak, the “book ofthe hour.” Our remote friend, Mr.Charles Dickens, would probably fallinto the mood of the book were he torise from his tomb. The critics (andthere are a great many) seem to agreeon the fact that this book is MissFerber’s best yet. It is full of spiritedhumor, understanding, and sympathy.It is not yet a best seller, but give ittime. Doubleday did a very neat andattractive job with the make-up. Thecover jacket is especially attractive indesign.Next on our list is Miss Sinclair’s“Far End” (Macmillan). It is an at¬tempt at something new in which shehas left out a certain tone of reality inher characters Because of this newself-imposed style and objective MissSinclair is said to lose the illuminatingparenthetic flashes which are an im¬portant part of her former novels.Those three books seem to be thethree big books out of the recent batchof novels. There are those unfortunatenovels that slink along on a rear by->ways unnoticed until the author iseither dead or too old to appreciatethe popularity when it does come. Itis with those novels that our theoryas to how to keep up-to-the-minutegoes weak. The busy American read¬er, as a rule, puts himself at the mercyof the critics and the tastes of the book¬buying public. It is the college studentwith his oft-heralded-little-experienced-'hours-of-leisure who should wanderabout on these remote byways insearch of the sheep that slip the foldin the night.This method of keeping up-to-the-minute has been severely criticized bythose who advocate research and ob¬servation. They declare that such amethod straight-jackets any tendencytoward observation. “We should de¬velop a sense of what is good andwhat is bad in literature. After all,something which has been black-balledby the stereotyped critical world maybe to you of the season’s best.” Oursystem is for the college student whohas no time for much reading and yetwishes to keep up-to-the-minute.v •funnri B^uta*****^^.*.. m M B mom mMPage Four THE DAILY MAROON, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 6, 1926CRITIC INVENTS NEWLITERARY ANALYTICSIt has been the desire of scientific,furrowed-brow men of experimentationto invent a formula which, when appliedto Katherine Mansfield’s “Miss Brill,’’will bring out in dazzling results thecharacteristics in percentages and frac¬tion of Miss Mansfield’s style....LOST—Wedding ring, white gold,five chipped diamonds.

WINDOWSA Sketch by Peter PanThe dark street pursued it’s lazy waythrough the canyon of brownstone hous¬es, and as I wandered aimlessly along,I looked up at the windows and ponderedon what each hid behind it's inscrutablestare.Here is a dark, cynical window, witha crack like a twisted smile, and graycobwebs tracing fine wrinkles across it’ssinister countenance. There will be in¬trigue behind that window—I thought—a band of theives, murder, perhaps. 1shuddered, and went on.And here is a happy window, a fatmotherly one, with a complacent beamon it’s face. There is peace behind thatone—I said—there will be a table laidwith a red and white checked cloth; andthere will be a tired laborer sitting downto a bowl of steaming -soup—children,probably—fat rosy '•heeked children.I mused for a time about the soupand the children, and when at length Ilooked up, I was opposite a tall angularhouse whose descript shutters creakedin the wind. From a jagged opening ina lower shutter I caught the halfhearted gleam of a gas-jet. Ugh—Ithought—there will be poverty and sor¬didness. A window, perhaps, livingalone, or an old maid—On a sudden im¬pulse I crossed the street and rang thebell.The door swung open, and I con¬fronted a buxom woman tagged by tworosy cheeked children, tongues in cheeks,great eyes staring at me. The gas-jetflickered in the sudden gust of wind—my eyes went past it, down the hall.At the far end, an overalled man wasrising to shut the door; I had a suddenglimpse of a red and white checkedtable — a steaming bowl—before heslammed it shut with a word to thewoman before me to hurry.Well—she queried—impatiently.I beg your pardon—I stammered—Ihave the wrong house. And as I wentdown the stairs—sentimental fool—Ithought—and aloud—sentimental fool. Asmall breeze caught the words, andflung them at the windows.Sentimental fool—they echoed.I went on, through the canyon of in¬scrutable windows.FOR RENT—Room, use of kitchen¬ette and bath.

The methods, the patterns con¬trived by Miss Rickert have to do withthe Imagery, the Words, Thought Pat¬terns, Rhythm, Tone Patterns arid theVisual Devices which comprise each andevery-poetry and prose selection Ifat length each department were to beelucidated and given to assiduous ex¬planation, another replica of the bookwould be necessary. Miss Rickert, infine , has put her findings in conciseterminology, yet in such jargon to beunderstood by the most pragmatic pro¬letarian. In the laying on of the pat¬tern of Words, there are several meth¬ods of excavating the inner secrets otthe author’s style. Word proportion,word length, extent of vocabulary, asso-ciational values of words and phrasingcomprise the word mold. For example,Miss Mansfield's excerpt is diagnosedas to the proportion of different syllabiclengths and to the succession of differentsyllabic lengths. The result of a MissMansfield’s investigation and survey ofeven the most infinitesimal paragraphwill discern her individual style and ifwhen applied to an uncircumscribed ex¬cerpt showing the same results, the iden¬tity of the authorship of the doubtedexcerpt may thus be ascribed to MissMansfield.... In this manner books otunknown or doubted authorship, as theShakespear and Marlow mooted plays,can be definately conceded to the authen¬tic author... .Miss Rickert’s form islikewise applicable to an investigation of,say, the writings of William Sharp andhis nom de plume, “Fiona MasLeod”....CLASSIFIEDROOM FOR RENT—1300 E. 56thcorner Kimbark.
