UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO, TUESDAY, JANUARY II, 1927WHAT of IT?IMoKte MOUGENSTERJJ[he Development Fund (whateverthat is) is, I Hear, coming along nice-lv There are something like seven¬teen millions in the pockets of themoguls of the school, and tl ere is con¬siderable rubbing of hands over thefact. Hardly an hour rolls by butsomebody shells over a few morepieces of S’iver. and a new architect’s, |an is called for. Buildings willshortly go up on all ♦he spots onwhich there are none now. The var¬sity tennis courts, historic site of theannual Conference meet, will shortlyhe ploughed up, and foundations fora new Administration building begun.Already the cough of the cement mix¬er is sounding from over in the vicin¬ity of Phil Allen’s fast rising ModernLanguages building. Sleepy Hollowhas fallen before the advance of new¬er and better theological buildings. Intheir mind’s eye, the master minds ofthe school envision a long line ofglass and stone on the south side ofthe Midway. The City Grey is *astbecoming something more than a linefrom a song.* * *All this, if you are one of the Big¬ger and Better boys, or if you havethe romantic mind that is entrancedhy sheer power and permanence (rep¬resented by the great new buildings),is fine. It is moving, breath-takingin its significance. But. as in every¬thing. there is another side to things.Why sink all the money in buildingsand ivy? How about a few men? Un¬derstand that this is no crab againstthe existing personnel of the teach¬ing staff. Far from it. There aremen here in school today teachinganyone who cares to listen who, ifthey had walked the streets of Athensin the old golden days would havehad their crowds flocking around themlistening to their words of simple wis¬dom, just as surely as Socrates had his.No, this is no complaint against thestaff—it is a complaint against itsnumbers. There are not enough greatmen; there are not enough of the oth¬er class of teachers, who make up insoundness what they lack in brilliance,either. Phigams at HomeWith DiphtheriaThe poor, homeless Phi Gams!Jack Kinsey went out and caughtdiphtheria the other day, althoughhe didn't know it for a week, andIhe consequence is that the Wood-lawn Avenue boys are on the pointof looking for room and board,cheap.Kinsey remained in his room lastweek, thinking he hail a cold. Butas the cold didn't disappear oneof them finally called a doctor.They will probably be quarantin¬ed for a week.REED GETS NEWBLACKFRIAR JOBMusic Librarian Is Added toShow StaffCreation of a new Blackfriars job,music librarian, and the appointmentof Norman Reed to 'the position wasannounced yesterday by Abbot PhilWatrous. The job ranks with any ofthe other staff positions, and is one ofconsiderable importance in the man¬agement of the show.Reed will have charge of the scoreof the show' this spring, as well asthose of past shows. It will be withinthe province of his office to have themusic and words to the Friars songwhere they are needed at the propertime, and to have charge of the fileand handling of the music for theshow.The new appointee to the Friarsstaff has had considerable experiencewith Blackfriars productions and withmusic,I he consequence is that classes arcwoefully overcrowded. Things tend tobecome like the hogwash at the StateUniversity. Individualities are lost inthe mob. The old small classes, wherethe professor knew a few of the fel¬lows he was teaching, are gone. Stu¬dents in some courses have to sitwhere they can—on desks or the floor—or lean where they can, if they can-no find sitting room. Clothes have tobe parked on the floor, in lieu of abetter place. The mobs arc enormous.Mr. P. S. Allen has about 150 in histiermanics course, Mr. James WeberLinn an equal number in his Englishpoetry section, Mr. Walter Sargentclose to 100 in his Modern Art class,and Mr. Fay Cooper Cole another 100in his Ethnology course. There areplenty of other courses that run justas high.* * *i hese classes are large, and nodoubt of it. Some will argue that theyare not as large proportionately asthose in other Big Ten and stateschools, but that is beside the ques¬tion. It was originally the idea of theUniversity to have small classes. The' lassies building, for instance, wasbuilt with this idea in mind. Subse¬quently, however, partitions betweenrooms had to be knocked out and ihelecture halls enlarged to meet the sit¬uation of ever-growing classes. Byflow some of these classes have grownout of all bounds, increased until theyare almost out of control. The quiet,scholarly atmosphere is fast disappear-ing. and in' its place is coming in thebasement Boston Store sale rush. Asthe lawgivers used to say in the daysof vampire bicycle riders, “Something°bght to be done about this!” WALES MAY VISITUNIVERSITY NEXTAUTUMN, REPORTStudents at the University mayhave another chance to see the so-much-talked about Prince of Wales,whom thousands of curious youthsturned out to see on his visit to theUniversity last year.

In the East six ofthe New York papers carried the As¬sociated Press story of the Christmasissue of The Daily Maroon, and pa¬pers as far west as Bellingham, Wash¬ington, considered the story worthyof space.

Burgess, who has beenappoined a member of the Mayor’sCrime Commission is instructor of so¬ciology and co-author of several bookson the same subjects.Mr. Burgess received his A. B. de¬gree at Kingfisher College in 1908,and his Ph.D., in 1913. From 1912-13, he was an instructor at Toledo Uni¬versity. For the next two years hewas on the faculty of the Universityof Kansas as assistant professor ofsociology. Parole Chief SelectsCommittee ForImprovementSociologist Here Since 1921Mr. Burgess has written an “Intro¬duction to the Science of Sociology”and “The City” both published by theU. of C. Press, and written by Mr.Burgess as co-author with Robert E.Parke, professor of sociology at theUniversity of Chicago.Child Should NotSpend Days WithParents— Prof.“Every child should be away fromits parents for a few hours every day.”That is the opinion of Dr. Bird T.Baldwin, director of the University ofIowa child welfare research station.However, Dr. Frank N. Freeman ofthe School of Education and acknowl¬edged as one of the country’s leadingexperts in child welfare believes thatthis statement is too sweeping andmust be subject to modification. “Thecharacter of the home environment,the age of the child, and its charactermust all be taken into consideration,”commented Dr. Freeman.Dr. Freeman agrees with Dr. Bald¬win in that association with otherchildren will enable the child to developself-control, self-reliance and respectfor the rights of others.Miss Helen B. Tupper, one of thesupervisors of the University Co¬operative Nursery School in comment¬ing on Dr. Baldwin’s statement said:“From my'observation of three yearold children in nursery school, I findthat companions of similar age are vir¬tual necessities in the life of a child.”Marian McFadden,Former Undergrad,Stars in ‘Aladdin’Finding dramatics, especially of thesort that entertain children, of moreinterest than campus life, Marian Mc¬Fadden, a former student of the Uni¬versity and a member of Esoteric hasleft school for work in this field.

Thefirst performance was January 8.News Comes FirstThe Daily Maroon is readprimarily for its interestingand concise coverage of cam¬pus news. This fact was as¬certained when 125 campusleaders were questioned bythe newswriting class of Mr.Frank H. O’Hara. 107 ofthe 125 read the news beforeturning to the many inter¬esting features.News has been so allotedto campus organizations andsocieties during the Winterquarter, that each successivenewspaper will be doubly in¬teresting. And our policyeliminates all publicitypuffs. Ernest W. Burgess, associated pro¬fessor of sociology at the University,has been appointed by Hinton G. Cla-baugh, head of the pardon and par¬ole board, through the recom¬mendation of President Max Ma¬son, as a member of a committeeof three who are to study crim¬inal and parole conditions in Il¬linois. The other two who are to joinMr. Burgess in supervising this studyare Andrew A. Bfuce of NorthwesternUniversity and Dean Albert J. Harnoof the University of Illinois.Decide Details SoonAt the first meeting of the com¬mittee held Saturday, January 8, Mr.Burgess and the others discussed onlythe general principles of their sub¬ject. At the next meeting to be heldin about two weeks, the men will getdown to the main details.Nearly all of the work will be basedon written records. For this purposenearly six thousand cases, taken froma study of Joliet, Pontiac, and otherpenitentiaries, .will be consulted. “Noresearch work in any of the penal in¬stitutions will be done, unless actuallynecessary,” Mr. Burgess declared.There is also doubt as to the lengthof time that will be required for thisstudy, although definite plans willprobably be made in a few weeks,which will give some idea of amountof work to be done.CAMPUS WOMEN CANRUN CARS BETTERTHAN COLLEAGUESAs an automobile driver the cam¬pus women is a better insurance riskthan her male college mate.

Sophomore AssitantRobert Klein Sophomore AssistantMyron Fulrath Sophomore AssistantJack Me Brady Sophomore AssistantWallace Nelson Sophomore Assistant In BriefBy Dexter W. MastersPresident Coolidge, in his messageto congress yesterday explaining thestand he would take in the current Nic¬aragua situation, intimated that Mex¬ico was seriously concerned in thebusiness. What is more, the presi¬dent’s address had a strong tone ofaggressiveness running through it thatforecasts action on the part of UnitedStates should Mexico become too openin her dealings.The president’s message dealt, fo.the most part, however, with a de¬fense of America’s actions thus far anda clear statement of the policy to hepursued in the future. He describedthis policy very simply, showing i.!merely as one of adequate protectionof American life and property in thewar areas and a fulfillment of the re¬sponsibility under which the eountr'- jis placed.The main point to he noted is thatthe president's words show interven¬tion in Nicaragua’s internal affairs tobe farthest from any desire of theAmerican government.The burning of the Laurier Palace,a theater in Montreal, and the result¬ing panic in which seventy-six chil¬dren were killed, show that fire pre¬ventative actions are of little availagainst fear. Of the seventy-six. onlyfive were killed as the direct resultof burns. The remainder were eitherasphyxiated or crushed and couldhave been saved,had the audience rec¬ognized conditions as they were.PRACTICALITYT3R0FESS0R FREDERICK BURGESS, of the Department ofA Sociology, has been appointed a member of Mayor Dever’snew Crime Commission. Another instance of the growing tend¬ency among civic and industrial leaders to call in University menfor the solution of practical problems.It has been a favorite cry of University critics that there istoojittle contact between college and the “real world,” that thecolleges need the tempering influence of the “facts” and that theworld needs the universality of perspective which the collegescan provid. There is something of naivete about the charge, butenough of truth to make it interesting.The Daily Maroon would be last to minimize the importanceof pure scholarship, or pure science. But it is also the last tosay that the accumulated wisdom and technique of the univer¬sities should be kept within the narrow boundaries of the campus.The University of Chicago in particular should seek a moreintimate relationship with the City of Chicago, if for no otherreason than that the University must depend on the City forsupport and growth in the future.EDITORIAL POLICYWHEN YOU OPENED your Daily Maroon one day last weekfound a new column on the editorial page entitled “WorldNews Digest.” Thus for the first time in the history of this pub¬lication was news from beyond the campus handled.Holding fast to that moderation and gentlemantly temperwhich has made the modern Maroon, Mr. Masters will refuse todiscuss Mrs. McPherson’s tribulations, nor will Hollywood bementioned by name. Contemporary politics and economics, themost important of the subjects which crowd the down-towndailies will be treated, but we do not expect to see Master wanderbeyond that point.The gentlemen who settle these matters of policy for theDaily Maroon, realizing that the average undergraduate is soabsorbed in his studies and in the contemplative, other-worldlylife of the scholar that he has no time or desire to find out whatis going on in the world around him, thought that they might dosomething to improve the situation. Hence Mr. Master’s new job.Whether or not Master’s daily effort will remedy the situa¬tion remains to be seen. But at least it is a pleasant, hopeful sen¬sation to know that the paper is interested in the solution of morethan University problems, interested in those matters whichtrouble the minds of experts of the higher, pedagogy.BETTERTHE CHRISTMAS EDITION of the Daily Maroon — twothousand copies — was sold out at nine o’clock on the morn¬ing the paper was issued. Such an overwhelming and somewhatunexpected response on the part of the campus at large has putnew enthusiasm into the hearts of the Daily Maroon staff. Anewspaper is made just as much by the interest of its readers asthe efforts of its editors. There is enough intelligence and un¬tapped interest on our campus to provide a field for the best col¬lege newspaper in the country. The staff has set that ideal as itsgoal.Next week there will be a subscription drive to increase thecirculation of the Daily Maroon. The campus must do its partin achieving this best Maroon. Chicago’s council committee on the jcity’s transporta^g u, received vester- (day two ordinance i offered as soln-tions to the traction problem. It seems jvery probable, since the street-car con¬tracts expire in twenty-one days, thatfuture transportation in the city willbe managed jn accordance with one ofthese plans.The first one. made public at yes¬terday’s session of the committee forthe first time, proposes to consolidatethe surface and the elevated lines intoone company upon which action atemporary franchise would be granted.The alternative, based on the Uismanplan and providing for a twenty-yearsolidate surface, elevated, and bus*;franchise to that group, would con-lines and would include subways whenand if they are built. Transfers issuedon one line, under this plan, wouldbe acceptable on any other.The last mentioned provides for acommission of five members to reg¬ulate and operate it and, what is mostimportant, it stipulates that this com¬mission shall be composed of city op¬eratives and not state. All of whichis in more or less accord with Gov¬ernor Small’s address at Sprinfieldlast week. The governor demanded aChicago referendum on all tractionquestions brought up in the house,but the proposed method accomplish¬es the same results with less effort.The governor is, I repeat, a good poli¬tician if nothing else.American rights are being jeopard¬ized, along with those of most otherforeigners in the present Chinese up¬risings. -Although no definite aggres¬sions have occurred, foreigners havebeen driven out of Hankow and a rath¬er clearly-defined movement at ridding]the entire country has taken shape.The French official quarters, in thelight of the most recent revolts, havestarted a move towards united actionof the powers. If the situation be¬comes much more serious, it appearsvery probable that, the United Stateswill be involved in another, thoughsmaller, war.NEED WOMEN REPORTERSto in _____Women interested in reportingsports news for the Daily Maroon re¬port to Betty McGee at the Daily Ma¬roon office today between 2:30 and3:30.Typewriters rented, sold, exchanged.Woodworth’s Book Store, 1311 East57th St.nftvl rUNIVERSITY LUNCH5706 Ellis Ave.Try Our Minute Service Lunch35cChop Suey & Chow MeinOur Specialty JANUARY PHOENIXTO REVEAL ELLISHALL “LOW-DOWN”—When the Phoenix conies out withits long heralded “True Story” num-manager of the True Story idea.White, literary inan-about-campus, willbe turned upon the publications headsin Ellis Hall.

NORGRENITES OUTTO MAKE UP FORHAWKEYE DEFEATMaroons Meet NorthwesternOn Enemy FloorTomorrowThere’s always one way left toatone for a basketball defeat and thatis to win one. That is probably thecourse of action that the Maroons willdecide upon when they will grace thePatten floor up at Evanston, Wednes¬day. Northwestern who lost to Illi¬nois while the Maroons were bow¬ing to Iowa might decide similarly butthat is another story.Teams EqualThe two teams to date look aboutequal with the Wildcats having theadvantage due to a home floor. North¬western usually has a bang-up offensewith a weak defense, while the Ma¬roons stress defense. So far Fisherand Rusch, who were teammates atFargo, N. D., have been doing mostof the basket heaving for the northshore team. Levison and Johnson,football men, have been trying to frus¬trate the opponents’ attempts at bas¬kets with more or less success. LankyGlcichmann runs about in the otherforward position.There are plenty of seats left forthe game so there will be no necessityfor going early to avoid the proverbialrush.SP0RT0L0GYBy Tom StephensonBEFORE disposing of the factsand figures of last Saturday’s thrill¬ing conference opener with Iowa byputting them on the shelf as “just an¬other game” in Maroon basketballhistory, I would like to statisticize alittle:CHICAGO tried something like 65shots from the floor as compared with40 attempts made by the visitors, butless hurrying and closer ranging bythe Hawkeye shooters gave them a 7to 4 advantage on the shots whichwere successful.KAPLAN, who led the Maroonscorers with two buckets and a likenumber of free throws, attempted 18field and 2 gift shots. Zimmermantried for 17 goals and for one freethrow, getting one of each. CaptainSackett registered his lone counterfrom nine attempts, getting no chanc¬es for free shots. Hoerger had 10 un¬successful trys for field goals butconnected on 2 out of 6 gift throws.McDonough went scoreless for theevening with 8 attempts from the•CRNSr-ROOtiV■5309-t1flRPE:R-flVE:-•PHONG WOC-PflRK-0262-■im-moioGRflprtft floor and four from the foul line. Gisttried three long shots but failed, andFarwell made no attempts at scor¬ing.IT was remarked after the gamethat the Maroons might have won thegame had they made their freethrows, but the figures show theIowans to have been less fortunatethan the locals in the gift column,the Norgrenites scoring 5 out of 13,the Barryites 5 out of 16 chances.THAT the game was one of de¬fensive prowess on the part of bothteams is shown by a comparison withthe scores of other conference con¬tests of the year. The 1913 scorewas the only one of the five confer¬ence tilts played last Saturday inwhich both teams were held below the20 mark.THE ejection of Sackett and Mc¬Donough from the game on the foullimit, and the large number of per¬sonals marked up against each team(13 for Chicago, 11 for Iowa) fur-(Continued on page 4)The Frolic TheatreDRUG STOREAdjacent to Frolic TheatreCigarettes Fountain ServiceTd.

Onehad perfected a variation of a wrest¬lers’ wrist-lock, the sight of whichwould have made Coach Vorres’ facelight up with joy, while the other cul¬prit had the nasty but amusing habitof inserting his right thumb betwixtthe shoulder strap of the jersey ofhis opponent and the adjacent epid¬ermis of same and then proceeding totug in the opposite direction towardswhich his opponent was inclined toambulate.”THANKS, Mr. Cohen.
