UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO, TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 9, 1926 Price Five CentsWHAT OFIT?ternRumors have come to me that va-riou- of the football players are con¬templating what the I. W. W. used toterm “direct action,” in the event thatcertain things in process of publica¬tion at present turn out to be evenslightly tinged with what the footballboys are pleased to consider the un¬complimentary. Who wrote thesethings, and when and where they areI scheduled to make their appearance, Ido not say. I merely state, out of myown knowledge, that the person whohad the courage to write these thingsbore no ill-will toward Mr. Stagg’sathletes, either as individuals or as atrroup. The things he chose to saywere, everything considered, writtencooly and impartially, with a strictand impersonal eye for truth. Thereis nothing ir. them that has not, farand wide, been felt or discussed be¬fore; there is nothing in them that isin the nature of a personal attackupon the individuals considered.* * * *Hence, this writer rises up andcomes to the aid of his fellow, who hashad, in the words of Mr. Bob Zup-i pke, the intestinal fortitude to comeout in print with things that every¬body feels, but few say. He declaresfor the principle that the stating ofthese things will harm no one; he feelsthat there should be no malice result¬ant from their appearance on any side.He feels that, if there are in Mr.i Stagg’s athletes, taken from certain asspects, elements of humor, they shouldnot be concealed from a campus thathas grinned when the very clubs toI which that campus as individuals be¬long have been baldly shown up forwhat they are. He takes that freespeech clause in the Constitution atiace value. He gives the football play¬ers full latitude to critize the game ofhandball that the writer of this forth¬coming expose plays. He is certainthat that gentleman would take theathletes’ criticism of his handball play¬ing in the same light that the athleteswill take their mild panning, for hefeels that the point in question is the>anie in either instance.♦ * • * *It develops that part of my remarksof Saturday regarding the social activ¬ities oi Wally Marks were incorrect,h was my impression at the time thearticle was written—Friday afternoon—that Wally would go through withhi> scheduled appearance at the Ara¬gon Ballroom. But it seems that Mr.Stagg and Wally consulted togetheron this question of policy, and the de¬cision arrived at was that Wallyshould go home and go to bed im¬mediately after the pep session in Man-del. This ^Vally faithfully did, andhis work of Saturday thus was notcompelled to suffer through any leth-argy induced from arduous nocturnaloccupations Friday at the Aragon.Subbing for Wally at the North Sideballroom was his brother, “Red,” him¬self distinguished to sopie extent asa football player at Lindblom, and his'act molded substantially in accordft’ith the justly famous Marks linea¬ments. So, you see, the Illinois agentsfailed after all in their sinister designs.* * * *I be team, I think we all agree, didV well Saturday. True, the boys"ere beaten, but that was expected:that they were not beaten by a muchb'Sger margin is cause for all the sat-'sfaction one may care to register.^r- Zuppke, berating his men after|he game, expressed the situation per¬fectly. “You big lumps,” he said, “youhad the chance to rub it into ’em good,ind you didn't do it!” That’s it ex-lct,y- They didn’t do it.

Mo¬tion pictures not only glorify inde¬cency and immorality solely by theirgraphic presentation Miss Freeman de¬clares, but also continually, conscious¬ly, and consistently presents to theyouth of the nation, pictures of licen¬tiousness and crime.In concluding. Miss Freeman de¬clares that the moral influence may bebettered, but that the possible alter¬ing of the intellectual effect is stillundecided.

Hisresignation, taking effect before the. first of the year, leaves no immediatej successor to the position that links theI campus with the outside wTorld.! “It is a great institution,” declaredPierce, “that can foster at the sametime a press agent and a medicalschool. The one represents the low¬est, the other the highest form of hu¬man endeavor. However, the one con¬tributes slightly to the growth of theother, and I regret leaving an officethat is able to give even a widow’s miteto the cause of the University.”Succeeds Smith #When Henry Justin Smith who wasj called from the news editorship of theChicago Daily News office, left theUniversity to become managing editorput; iubjsisse stq <(‘ssnyf„ ‘jaded jeqj joscarcely more than a college graduate,was given the responsibility of fillingthe veteran journalist’s campus shoes.That was December, 1925.

As a wonderful tribute to the effectiveness of their“Alma Mater” the whole stadiumful of football fans held a breath¬less silence during the singing.We are not among those who believe in advertising loyalties butsuch a song as that of the lllini breeds affection in the ranks of thesingers and respect in the masses of the listeners. It is a good song.Our repertory of songs contains none of any particular merit,and we ing them all with no particular artistry. Our own “AlmaMater,” we think, is good; but we have sung it so often that we areprejudiced in its favor. Our other songs are only fair. If someonedoes not write us a good song soon we’ll have to write one ourselves.ON SENIOR CLASS CANESTODAY’S DAILY MAROON announces that “starting Thursday,* and continuing every Thursday therafter seniors in the collegeswill carry canes as emblems of their seniority.”We know that the seniors will have their sticks with them thisThursday. We hope that they will continue to carry them on thesucceeding Thursdays. Our undergraduate colleges have beennotoriously lacking in class consciousness. The Daily Maroon ad¬vocates the development of such consciousness, not because thereis anything valuable in the mere fact of classification according tothe number of credits one has accumulated but because the consci¬ousness of belonging to a particular class will do something valuableto the members of that class. It will make classmates aware of eachother. It will give them that feeling of having something in com¬mon which makes for more and better friendships.More than most schools the University of Chicago is a sny-thesis of self-sufficient, highly individual men and women. TheDaily Maroon is proud of that fact. But individualism and “differ-entness” are not the only good things in life. Many good thingsaccrue to those who can surrender consciously to their groups, andbe loyal.This year the setting for class canes and for class consciousnessis unusually appropriate. Two years ago the Undergraduate Coun¬cil promoted a campaign for class tocques. Some people boughtthe tocques and a few actually wore them for a short while but theproject was an unqualified failure. This year there is an unusuallystrong current of school and class feeling moving the student body.We hesitate to call it “spirit” because the contemporary connota¬tions which go with that word do not do full justice to the feelingwhich prevails. But feeling there is, and a good, strong, loyal feel¬ing.We have high hopes for senior canes. After the preliminaryhooting has died down the idea is going to “take,” partly becausethere is something eminently satisfactory about carrying a canebut mostly because our seniors actually want to see a class con¬sciousness developed. SENIORS FULFILLLIFE’S AMBITION;TO CARRY CANES(Continued from page 1)a Cane week will be held at Chi¬cago. Although the official day forthe canes is Thursday, Seniors are ex¬pected to support the idea by carry¬ing them every day.Canes May VaryThe canes which will be carried donot have to be of a uniform variety.Any member of the dignified upperclass may carry a stick with a head aslarge as a bedpost if he so desires.Those who do not have canes in theirpossession now, can secure them atthe bookstore. The light canes rrtaybe bought for the price of one dollar,while those inlaid with ivory may bepurchased at a slightly higher price.To set the upper class apart fromthe lower members of this institution,the officers of the Senior clcfss andthe Undergraduate council stronglyurge that all the members of the classbe provided with their canes by Se¬nior chapel, to insure the successfulbeginning of a tradition that will beobserved by the Seniors every year.SUNDERS INSPIREDTO WRITE SONGSFOR UNIVERSITIES(Continued from page 1)ence fuss, this season the musical Mr.Sanders put these words to the tuneof “Where Did You Get Those Eyes?”Old Chicago U—Here’s a cheer for you.There’s a team that’s always in it—Finish things when they begin it.They plunge—they lunge—They hold that line.And lose or win,They finish fine.You’ve a great old bunch,And I’ve got a hunchYou will have a great eleven,In nineteen twenty-seven.So go!

With Notre Dame again appearingin the role of chief national grid titlecontender the old question of their ad¬mittance into select circle of Big Tencompetition has been revived with anew emphasis.Today it was reported that five ofthe six votes necessary for the actionwere assured when the faculty repre¬sentatives of the western conferencemet in executive Oct. 26 and 27. Formany seasons Rockne has observed allthe conference rules for his teamswhich usually can find mid-westerncompetition of interesting calibre onlyin the Big Ten.The admission of Notre Dame' istaken to carry with it the enlargementof the conference to the Big Twelve,the desirable even number of membersbeing achieved by voting in of Mich¬igan State which has been campaign¬ing in the east this fall.The campaign for admission seemedto have been ruined by the vehementcriticism made by Rockne of the of¬ficials of the Notre Dame-Northwest¬ern game two weeks ago. He main¬tained that his team was being unjust¬ly penalized on its shift play, and thatflagrant rough play by Northwesternwas going unnoticed.He publicly condemned the officialsout on the field between the halves.Northwestern’s authorities were soaroused that for a time it seemed thatNorthwestern and Notre Dame wouldnot continue to schedule games, andthat the Evanston school, one of thosein favor of the admission of NotreDame, would withdraw its support.However amicable relations have beenestablished.

Thegreater percentage of the squad outat present are Sophomores, and in¬clude some of the biggest men thathave played on a Badger team foryears. Only five men of last year’ssquad have been out for practice thisyear. One of these, Ralph Merkle,Chicago; is a senior, and the remain¬ing four are juniors.

AGAINST PURPLE PLAYSMaroons Build Defense to Meet SlashingDrives of Baker, Lewis and OtherNorthwestern Backs Off-TackleUndaunted by the rain yesterdayevening the Maroons had a heavy ses¬sion of practice under the new northstand. The drill centered mostly onoffensive and defensive line work withsome consideration given to defensiveaerial attack tactics. The freshmenshowed the Varsity several of North¬western’s dangerous line plays and theteam struggled strenuously to elimin¬ate their obvious defects. Northwest¬ern is noted especially for their off-tackle and aerial plays and Chicagowill need a great deal of hard train¬ing to be in shape for the game nextweek.Neff suffered from a slight sprainand a bruised shoulder Saturday, KenRouse was afflicted with a bruised hip,and Stan Rouse strained his ankleagain. None of the injuries were seri¬ous and all the men will be in thegame next week unless something un¬foreseen happens in practice during theweek. stead of doing so held Illinois to onetouchdown, which at that, was gainedby a sixty yard run. This shows thatChicago is improving and each weekstrengthens some old weak point.There is always the possibility of theunderdog upsetting all the “dope” andNorthwestern must realize that theMaroons will only too quickly snap upany loose ends and perhaps turn thetide of the entire conference affairs.PREP MEN TO HOLDMEET AT MILL CITYTHE SHANTYIs giving specialATTENTION TOProperly balanced Dinners ata moderate Price.Both ala carte and table d’hoteservice from 7:30 A.

Organizedbacking for the venture has been se¬cured in the Student Council of NewYork, a federation of student clubs andgovernmefts. The call has gone outto other colleges asking student or¬ganizations to volunteer in choosing anational committee for carrying onthe project. Interested student organ¬izations anywhere in the UnitedStates are invited to send delegates toa conference to be held November 26,at Columbia University, New York.The first delegation, last summer,was arranged by Miss Elizabeth VanAlstyne of Barnard Clolege.The Student Council of New YorkCity is the outcome of a successionof conferences on international ques¬tions. In a preliminary to the Prince¬ton Conference, December 11, 1925,New York liberal clubs, student prob¬lems clubs and student governmentspassed a resolution recommending apermanent organization which shouldcall together the students of NewYork City colleges whenever theywished to assemble.i * A series of conference followed dur¬ing the college season of 1925-26. AtTeachers College a mass meeting to.discuss the tense Chinese situation.This meeting elected a student delega¬tion which visited Washington, to in¬terview President Coolidge, SecretaryKellogg, Senator Borah and others onAmerica’s policy toward China. Whenthese students returned the studentsfrom various colleges reassembled tohear the outcome of the trip.As a result of these meeting an in¬formal committee representing New7York City colleges planned a studentmass meeting on the Passaic strike a';which money was raised for striker'srelief.The way was then paved for a per¬manent organization. Early this fallthe final step was taken. The StudentCouncil of New York City was organ¬ized with the following purpose: “Tounite the students of the New Yorkcolleges to interest them in local, na¬tional and international problems to.quicken response to the needs of hu¬manity and to secure an expression ofstudent opinion on all subjects of vi¬tal interest.”By calling a November Conferencethe Student Council hopes to launchits first big undertaking with an earlystart. A letter has gone out to manycolleges urging student cooperation.“The delegation,” the Council an¬nounces, “will be limited to a careful¬ly selected representative group of un¬dergraduates, graduate students, andrecent graduates who are vitally inter¬ested in the Soviet social and politicalexperiment. Students or organizationsare urged to send delegates. Individ¬uals are also eligible for membership.”The Student Council of New Yorkhas offices at 289 Fourth Avenue, NewYork City. (Continued from page 1)work, W. R. Jenkins, alumni secretary,said, “Bill Lyman and the Homecom¬ing Committee deserve the heartiestcongratulations in the time and effortexpended by them in the details forthe Homecoming Celebration.” M r .Jenkins also states that, inasmuch asall of the events were held on Satur¬day, the procedure adopted this seasonwras in the nature of an experiment andwas highly successful. Friday celebra¬tion will continue to be a part of theprogram.Vice-President Woodward in com¬menting upon the occasion declares:“Any occasion which gives the alumnian incentive to return to the Quad¬rangles is to be encouraged. It is tooearly to say wdiether the event shouldbe repeated on the same line next yearor not!”Homecoming figures show that fromtwelve to fifteen states were represent¬ed at the alumni banquet which at¬tracted many from great distances.Over 15,000 alumni attended the re¬union, and the oldest graduate presentwras from the class of '86.
