Apparently they havethe good-will of no one; seeminglythey would appear to be looked downupon.

The songs, | (ierkjes> a majority on the council wejests and reference I have cited aremerely evidences of the esteem, theranking in the popular mind, which thesubjects of them enjoy. If the, folkof the market-place (or of other fra¬ternities) did not think that the clubswhose lowliness they shout about insong and story amounted to somethingthey most emphatically would notbother themselves with those clubs.No. sir; they would sing songs aboutsome other organizations instead. Toback up the point I make, I cite thatexhibition of the more or less unvar¬nished truth that appeared early thisyear in The Phoenix under the cap¬tion, "The Truth About the EatingClubs.” Logically, those frats and clubsexposed in that article should have feltthe righteous indignation that anyonewho has not heard the bitter truthabout him—after there had existedall around the tacit understanding thatthat truth would not be spoken, howmuch it might be FELT. Yet thiswas not the case. Indeed, I heard allaround great indignation expressed bymembers of the men’s and women’sorganizations that were not mention¬ed in the expose over the fact thatthey were not given the same consider¬ation as those listed in the article hadbeen. They felt piqued, even slighted.If you doubt the truth of my generalassertion regarding this odd mannerof gaining prestige, just check up onhow many low songs are sung aboutNu Eta Epsilon, or how many talesof scandal related about dear old1 beta Tan Kappa, and see for your¬self.1 here has from time to time beena request forwarded in to me from the"u.er office that this column occasion¬ally engage itself with little items ofinterest concerning various people—that it be more or less of a column of"hat we call “personals.” The ideais fundamentally a good one, and Iam rather sorry that it has receivedso little attention up to now. But fromnow on, there will, as occasion re-quires, be just such a collection ofnews notes printed here.

Jr. ..Sophomore AssistantDonald Gallagher Sophomore AssistantJach McBrady .Sophomore AssistantWallace Nelson Sophomore AssistantTWO MENI AST FRIDAY EVENING the senior class had a dinner, a very** good dinner, incidentally, at which two men did most of thetalking. These two men, both of them intimately associated withthe University, represented two vostly different kinds of life. One ofthem was Walter Steffen, one of the greatst athletes of his time, anall-American half-back and at present coach of the only team whichbeat Notre Dame this year and a judge in the Superior Court of CookCounty—very much a regular fellow and very much a man of affairs.The other was Walter Dorn, dean in the undergraduate schools, in¬structor of history and scholar.Judge Steffen was well received. He reminisced with the broadand easy humor familiar to after-dinner speakers. He spoke of classrushes, doings at the Botany Pond, football and honesty, as it isrelated to monetary success. Dean Dorn was received somewhatmore mechanically. He started apologetically, but followed up withsomething startling. He began to read a formal paper in defenseof the humanities as fields of interest. The paper was written andread with enthusiasm, and shot through with an effective, if aca¬demic type of humor. But the dinner group was non-plussed. Un¬fortunately, American college groups are not accustomed to hearingformal papers read at their meetings. And many of the listeners,we suspected, were in a quandary about just what is included inthe humanities. The Dean sensed the situation and brought hispaper to a premature close, to the regret of many in whom he strucka spark of interest.The two types of talking, and the two types of life representedby these two men find their ready counterparts here on the campus.Too often, men can be classed either as “regular guys” or as “book¬worms.” Both types of living are crammed full of interest, and havein them most of the possibilities for the conduct of a good life.We believe that the ideal college man, insofar as there can be anideal college man, should combine these kinds of life in his ownlife, in the fullest measure. He should have a genuine love of foot¬ball, plus a genuine feeling for the intellectual adventure. He shouldbe “smooth” and yet be critical. Above all, the scope of thingswhich he appreciates should comprise the interest of both the DeanDorn and the Judge Steffen kinds of life.WORK, FOR THE NIGHT IS COMING!TWOODROW WILSON, when president of Princeton, told the fol-* lowing story, with a moral which is now applicable.The college was struggling in the throes of an arduous evange¬lical campaign. It was ten days before the final examinations. Therevival was gradually approaching its climatic din. Aroused by agreat religious zeal, the students were ransacking dormitories andclub-houses, dragging forth Christians, atheists, agnostics, Moham¬medans, Swedenborgians, theosophists and other species of col¬legians. Suddenly they paused before a door, bearing a placard onwhich was neatly printed: “Don’t bother me. I am a Christian, andam preparing for the finals as all good Christians should.”So now with all other campus activities and interests. Eachstudent should placard his door with the legend: “Don’t bother me.My activity now is final examinations.” PROF. TAEUSCHOF IOWA, GIVESADVICE ON COALPhilosophic Advice OfferedIn Article ByExpertPhilosophic aid in solving some ofthe problems of the retail coal dealerhas been offered by Carl F. Taeusch,professor of philosophy at the Uni¬versity of Iowa, who is the author ofa feature article in a national coaltrade journal.Thirty-eight thousand coal dealersin the United States is an over supply,believes Professor Taeusch, who hasmade extensive study of the work andis the author of a book on businessand professional ethics. Influx of newmembers in any group jeopardizes thestandards and coal associations shouldtake steps to restrict membership.Powerful GroupThe power of an organization wasstrssed by the Iowa philosopher in sta¬ting that coal dealers attempt to ac¬complish results through individualrather than organization effort. In¬creased service and less talking is an¬other remedy pointed out by Profes¬sor Taeusch.“Coal dealers should standardize andname the grades of coal, should adhereto these standards and names andshould have a powerful enough organ¬ization to make all dealers do like¬wise,” says Professor Taeusch.Construct CodeElimination of slip-shod businessmethods and gambling conditions wasseen as a panacea for some of theevils now present in the trade. “Con¬struct a definite instead of a generalcode of ethics and follow that code,”advises the Iowa educator.A FREE TRIP TOEUROPEor cash commissionsThe leading student tour organiza¬tion of America desires an agent onthis campus for the sale of its stud¬ent tours.

Coach Stagg haspersonally supervised the construc¬tion work which has to date beencompleted. When plans for the newstadium with its mammoth grandstandwere drawn up he was confrontedwith the difficulty of providing a newtrack for future cinder meets. Theold path had to he torn away and notenough space was left for a neW eastand west track with the old-circularWhereupon Coach Stagg sought theaid of three architects and evolved anew idea in running track construc¬tion. The track decided upon willhave a three-phase instead of a two-phase curve at each and thus thequarter will be squeezed into a spacehardly large enough for a fifth of amile of the old-circular path.So that Chicago, in the spring, willhave an entirely new track prastige,and the Unversity of Chicago TrackInterscholastic will be a real Chicagointerscholastic and not simply a GrantPark event.I niversity students, especially thosewho are not returning home for the* hristmas holidays, have been invitedto frolic at a Christmas Kve party tohe held at the Trianon ballroom, 62ndand Cottage Grove Avenue, ohe weekfrom Friday.f ree tickets to the party will be dis¬tributed through the courtesy ofMessrs.

Professor Nutting pointshas this feeling eve nt>ouph his out-out that the American negro alwaysward manner may be insolent andself-assuring.In Professor Nutting’s classes, ne¬groes from the West Indies have done“A” work, similar to that of whitescholars but an American colored manhas never reached that pinnacle inzoology studyr at the University ofIowa.Improvement is going forward con¬stantly', says Professor Nutting, whobelieves that n tme the Amercan ne¬gro will ose much of his inferioritycomplex. Then his intellectual naturewill develop until it is on a par withthat of his West Indian brother. 8Purdue CagersIn Opening Tilt(Continued from page 3)Wilcox at floor guard and Kentmer, amember of last year’s squad who wona minor letter at backguard.
