Y. M. C. A.launches si* d*ystudent drive for$500. J m t Jllaroon The secret isout — “Here WeAre” is Mirrortitle. 1Vol. 27. No. 69. UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO, TUESDAY, JANUARY 25, 1927WHAT of IT?yeORPE MORGENSTERHIn the old days no year-book wascomplete without a picture of along-haired, bewhiskered group,sprawled symmetrically about, andgenerally representing what in thenineties passed for the height of bo-hemianism. This was the glee club.For some time hereabouts the ca:n-pus has faltered along without a gleeclub to spur new hope into its wearyheart, and urge it along the way.True, nobody in particular seemedto notice the great void in campuslife, but there is no denying it wasthere. Well, not for long more. Fox*a couple of what are popularly call¬ed “big men on campus,” finding ev¬erything that was to be done in astate of completion, and looking fornew extra-curricular activities toconquer, espied the great hole wherethe glee club ought to have been andwasn’t, and straightway set about tofill up that hole. So far they havemade notable progress, and it looksvery much like we will not sleep verymany more nights in peace andquiet* * *It is the idea of those who havereestablished the glee club to makethe organization a rather exclusivechoral society. So far only frater¬nity men have been solicited as mem¬bers, and those enrolled to sing ac¬count for some of the best bloodof the campus. If this goes muchfarther, the aloof and rigidly selectPierian Sodality at Harvard will beput so much into the dark that itwon’t, as the boys say, even be fun¬ny. The organizers of the glee club,however, although they apparentlyslight the boys over in Hitchcock,Gates and Snell Hall, have plans forthose same fellows. Indeed, the hallboys figure very largely in the gleeclub idea. Not actively, it is true,but passively. Still, they figure. Forif I grasp the idea of the glee clubcouncil of wise men, it is the planof the glee club to go about theround of the halls some night tryingout their efforts before making amore formal appearance to theworld. As one of the hall boys, I findlittle to enthrall in the prospect ofthis trial serenading. For, knowingthe personnel of the execlusive newsinging club pretty well (a numberof them, even, might be classed asbosom companions of mine), I lookforward on the evening in questionto little more than the privilege ofcasting my alarm clock and a strayboot or two out of my fourth floorwindow.* * *I he women’s clubs. I believe, areto vote this week on the question ofdeterring rushing until the rushee’sjunior year in college. This, it isthought, would do away with a gooddeal of the cuthreat tactics whichnow go to put so much spice in theclub woman’s life during the firstweek of college every year. It is.further thought that deferred pledg-''ng would give both the club and therushee a better chance of seeingwhat each was getting out of thedeal, and thus a more satisfactoryresult all around would be attained.The present state of affairs, so faras rushing situation in the clubsis concerned, is what might be calledserious. And yet, as I consider it is11(,t so bad after all. You will recallthat during the Christmas holidaysf had the privilege of staying inanville for a few days. I foundthere that Danville High School and,almost the whole social order of thef°un, was under the sway of the'gh school frats and sororities.001 Petition among the high schoolsocial organizations was necessarilyeen> in order to determine theirratings. I was told that the sorori-les commonly practiced pledginggrammar school girls Two sixth-g'uders, indeed, were than wearingpledge pins of one of the clubs.(H, if the club girls up here thinkare hadly off, let them considerthat for a while!

The whole hearted approval ofother campus leaders indicate a verysuccessful campaign.Promoters and canvassers of thedrive met at a final relay in Hutch¬inson Commons yesterday noon.

Col¬lege girls seem to be of the opin¬ion bobbed hair is not as “hot”as they first thought.

U. BOILS FASTERMore developments in the North¬western political ruckus.A petition, signed by the twenty-six sororities represented on thecampus, have agreed to vote inde¬pendently and to oppose any organ¬ized political machine. The new planwas severely criticized by class lead¬ers, one going so far as to term it“childish.” The movement was orig¬inally the idea of the Y. M. C. A.as a means of checking the growingcontrol of the fraternities overNorthwestern elections. CALIFORNIA WITSDEFEAT CAMPUSTALENTJN TRYSTAudience Votes 52-16 Decis¬ion to Team FromWestBy Robert McCormackWits against wits, words againstwords, and the University debaterslost to their opponents from the Uni¬versity of California, last night inMandel hall. The decision was 52 to16 in favor of the Westerners with23 undecided. The question was:“Resolved that the democrats idealis a mistaken sentiment.”The affirmative was upheld by Cal¬ifornia. Louis H. Heilbron spokefirst for the Golden State. He de¬clared that the democratic ideal wasbased on an incorrect assumption,there being no truly popular will ofthe people. He favored a more aris¬tocratic form of government, a ruleof experts. Heilbron and his col¬league, Philip Broughton, that mod¬ern tendencies pointed toward sucha form of government.Miss Martha McLendon, originalspeaker for the negative, endeavor¬ed to show that democratic societywas the only successful mode of life.This argument was the basis for thenegative case.Democracy Stifles GenusBroughton argued that democracyleads to the stifling of individualism,talent and genius. He contendedalso that propaganda, to a large ex¬tent, controls the policy of themasses and that aristocracy versusdemocracy is a case of qualityagainst equality.Mayer Goldberg, second speakerfor the University, held that histor¬ical evidence showed that there wasno basis for believing that an aristo¬cratic government would be a suc¬cess.Debate Style DiffersThe University debaters inclinedtoward a more serious treatment ofthe subject than did the Californianswho never neglected to give a sar¬castic or humorous turn to a state¬ment, and so won much supportfrom the audience. ’This was the University’s secondintercollegiate debate.Harvard’s LibraryOf Law* EnhancedFrom 12,000 to 15,000 volumesare added each year to what is call¬ed the greatest collection of legalmaterials in the English speakingworld, according to Professor EldonJames, librarian of Harvard law li¬brary.

Dr. Herring,just returned from investigation of conditions there, will speak.A resoluton may be passed and sent to Washington and Mexico.If well attended, this meeting will add something new andsignificant to the history of student activity in this country withregard to national and international affairs, not because the pro¬posed meeting is anything stupendous, but because, until now,students in this country have remained almost totally indifferentto political matters.In Germany the 1848 movement for national unification pro¬ceeded, in large part, from the universities. In France and inRussia students have taken a large hand in political affairs. InJapan they have, as a class, effectively opposed militarism andmilitary training in the colleges. In China the student has alwaysbeen looked to as the leader, and today, through the influence ofstudents—many of them from this campus—the Dragon no long¬er sleeps. But in the United -States the university is considereda sort of high chair, from which proceed only styles in slang anddress. On all other matters students must, as proper children,be seen but not heard.For this attitude the students must take a large share ofthe blame. “What do you think of the Mexico situation?” weasked a graduate student. “Well, you know,” he said, “I’m play¬ing on the Divinity basketball team, and I really haven’t time tokeep up on things.” If we are used for cannon fodder we can¬not make the plea of victims of the last war that the older gen¬eration got us into this.”If the students of this university, nearly half of whom arecollege graduates, cannot spare a few minutes occasionally to con¬sider questions which mean life or death for the human race, thenthe costly maintenance of such an institution as this is of doubt¬ful value. At any rate, the meeting this afternoon will be aninteresting barometer, if not a chapter, in social history.VTHE LIBRARIES/TVHE DAILY MAROON of last Friday contained a brief articleon the University libraries. The University libraries are ex¬cellent. And no doubt the library officials could display formid¬able figures showing the heavy volume of business which they do.This is all very commendable. Perhaps the foremost duty ofa University, once it has given its students inspiration is to pro¬vide them with the material to satisfy their new interests. Thedifficulty is that the University fails to open the eyes of nine-teriths of the undergraduate body; it fails to give them inspira¬tion. Undergraduates use the libraries for required work only,and then only sketchily. ' We have never known one to approachthe libraries voluntarily. THE DAILY MAROON, TUESDAY, JANUARY 25, 1927In BriefBy Dexter W. Master*Judge Ben J3. Lindsay, nationallyknown juvenile judge and an author¬ity on child welfare, was ousted,temporarily at least, as judge of theDenver Juvenile court by a decisionof the Supreme Court of that stateyesterday. Lindsey termed the deci¬sion “the most astounding thing Ihave ever heard” and announced hisintent to continue in office, sayinghe had not had a chance to answerthe testimony against him.The decision is a trifle late. Roy¬al Graham, Lindsey’s opponent inthe 1924 election who brought pro¬ceedings against him saying that hisvictory was not legal, i; dead. TheDenver District court ruled at thetime of the contest proceedings thatLindsey’s victory was as legal as anyelection, which might be construed asevading the issue but which, never¬theless, ought to settle the case. Andnow, like the basebell scandals, theaffair is unearthed again.The ousting of Lindsay leaves thejuvenile judgeship of Denver vacantand while it does not remove thejudge from the sphere of influencewhich he has been wont to occupyin the entire country, does deprivehim of the natural medium for thatinfluence. I do not think, however,that the decision will have as greatweight as the Supreme court mightwish it to have. Judge Lindsay isalmost an institution in Denver andinstitutions, like habits, are notabolished so easily.* * *The good-will flyers of the UnitedStates yesterday became separatedagain. This is nothing new; it is, infact, almost a regular occurence, al¬though mere separations may alter¬nate with more drastic happenings,at times approximating sudden ces¬sation of the entire expedition. Nat¬urally, we wonder if it’s worth it.The flyers are given great ova¬tions wherever they stop, but thatj can hardly be construed as indicativej of the mind of the country or coun-i tries visited towards America, and| small matter. The theory Is, ofcourse, above reproach but I do not. think the time or conditions to beI suitable at present.* * *The rising wave of Chinese na¬tionalism which thus far has hadthings more or less its own way,struck a snag yesterday when Japanand England put their past threatsinto action and made military move¬ments that give promise of beingmore than precautionary measures, athey are diplomatically described.The British sent three companies toShanghai and the Japanese dispatch¬ed four destroyers to undeterminedpoints in China. What they will dowhen they get there is another ques¬tion.Aj;Shi rtwil/ijdtion it.

Prospects for a Maroon vic¬tory are practically nil and the bestthat is hoped for is a good struggleon the part of the Chicago tank¬men.The Gopher swimmers last yearcaptured the conference meet andare picked by almost everyone to re¬peat this year. The team is made upof former veterans and one new man,Bennett, who is said to be muchfaster than Richter, 1926 captain,whom he replaced. The Minnesotaswimming team, according to CoachMacGillivray, is the greatest aggre¬gation of its kind ever assembled byany college or club because it hasstars in almost every event insteadof one or two.Good proof of the capabilities ofthe Gopher tankers is the news thatlast week in the medley rNay theMinnesota team shattered the oldconference record of 3:23 by eightseconds.

Farrell,Varsity track coach at Michigan.In addition to having won recog¬nition in team competition almost jevery year, the Wolverines have sue- jceeded in winning at least one firstplace in every event except the milerun, the latter event having provena consistent jinx throughout theyears.“The dashes seem to have beenthe most outstanding event for Wol¬verine trackmen,” Farrell continued,“and Michigan has scored heavily inthese short races. Johnson set thepace by winning three indoor 50-yard dashes, and it is probable thathe would have repeated in the out¬door races, had he not been con¬fined to other events in which hewas an exceptional performer.Hubbard, world’s record holder inthe broad jump, was’ also an out¬standing speedster, and proved hisworth by twice winning the outdoordash. Whitman, a team mate of Hub¬bard, accounted for one indoor andone outdoor victory, while Simmonswas the remaining Wolverine to wina dash event, his victory coming inthe indoor meet.IF YOU ARE HUNGRYCall at5650 ELLIS AVE.Home Cooking 35cso'cHf-CAGO/TOWER65RD AND BLACKSTONE(9^ocAmv.(SAAjCAjaJcVAUDEVILLE^OND THE BESTFEATUREPHOTOPLAYSComplete ChangeOf Program EverySunday & ThursdayBARGAIN HAIIV A™LTSMATINEES Vt\ I LI 3(WJUST THE PLACE TO SPENDAN AFTERNOON OR EVENING MARKS OPENINGWORK ON ANNUALCARNIVAL EVENTPrepare Early For FinalsOf Big WinterProgramAs a climax to the winter sportsprogram the I-M Division offers theWinter Athletic Carnival.

McRoy and Col¬lins showed well in the first meet.The basketeers went down to abewildered 36-18 defeat at the handsof the Purdue team. The main causeof the setback was a series of ninebaskets by Wheeler a formerly medi¬ocre Boilermaker lad, who for somereason or other had at least one eyeglued on the loop.A bit of nervousness in their firstmeet of the year lost the fencers awin in their affair with the Milwau¬kee *Y’ foilsman.

He isdoing this work in the oldest andmost historic house in Chicago, thelittle bowlegged, cross-eyed RelicHouse that was built right after thegreat Chicagd fire, at the junctionof Clark Street, Ogcjen Avenue, Lin¬coln Park West and Center Street.The walls of the little house arebuilt of charred stones and in themis immured every sort of relic: ironpipes, beer bottles, horseshoes, petri¬fied tree trunks, and bits and mor¬sels of all sorts of objects are to beseen projecting.Bruin Aids TooLevin is working with Louis Bruin.Thesetwo young artists have rescuedthe puppet from the vaudeville stageand put him back where he reallybelongs—among the fine arts. Greatand serious dramas of the past andpresent are being performed by themarionettes. It has been said thatplays of the unreal are cast withpuppets that are unreal; each dollis a character made expressly for thepart it must play; each play is pre¬sented with perfect, harmoniousblending of stage setting with mar¬ionettes figures, of color, and light¬ing schemes with the character ofthe drama.The two young artists are tryingto produce a perfect theatre effect:a small studio, a few guests in theaudience, a place of leisure and in¬formality. The play is presented ina perfctly balancd fashion. No ‘star’actor obtrudes his personality, nohuman elements spoils the illusion.•ERNST ROOtlY■5609-HARPER-AVE-•PHONE=HyC£-P/m-82a2-• ARTIS!-fflOTOGRflPfCftCOWHEY’S55th St. at Ellis Ave.Everything in thelatest collegehaberdasheryand smokers*articles.
