No. 106.WHAT of IT?'^CCORpE HORpENSTERH UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 20, 1927I sat in Prof. Linn’s English classyesterday morning and heard thatgentleman make the heretical utter¬ance that he valued as much, and gota comparable amount of pleasurefrom a piece of poetry in the springnumber of Forge as he did from achampionship football team that hadgone through its season without be¬ing scored on. No wonder the boysand girls were taken aback: themwas strong words. There is, of coursethe idea that Mr. Linn was entirelysafe in offering to trade a cham¬pionship Chicago football team forthe piece of poetry in question, forhe won't particularly have to worryabout the opportunity ever offering STOCK FINISHESCAMPUS SEASONIN STOCK STYLEBurlesque, Tragedy Key¬notes of Final Sym¬phony BillB1 Alfred V. FrankensteinBurlesque and tragedy, mystic long¬ing for the redemption of the worldand individual pursuit of individualinspiration were the labels one couldstck on the program at the ChicagoSymphony orchestra at Mandell hallyesterday. The concert began withthe prelude to Richard Strauss’ “Gun-tram.” an opera concerned with thosemedieval mystics who dedicated theirlives to redeeming the world throughsong. The prelude convinces one thatitself. But still, the statement was | Strauss had heard the prelude tosufficiently startling.

To midnight of April 18,the rain fall reached the 3.70 point.A normal monthly record is 2.88inches.The highest April records sincethe campus station was establishedare 4.10 inches in 1921, and 4.89inches in 1920. Tomorrow Sees the DeclamodiousAdvent of Travel Phoenix, Says Ed“And how about the tone." we askedBrother Allison when he informed usthat the Old Bird was about to flapits wings again tomorrow.“Well,” he said with a contempla¬tive inflection in his sonorous con¬tralto, “I have decided to give theentire issuea declamodius tone, atone with a myriad of inflections, atone that will satiate the literary tatesof the poetic aesthete as well as theobtuse humorist. Sobriety, salubrity,and sagacity has becomethe slogan ofthis issue. It will please all.”And so we crept back into the of¬fice of The Daily Maroon and pre¬pared to herald to the campus thecoming of the “Travel” number ofThe Pheonix tomorrow.This issue of the University’s, . ' me articles lpeppy but polite periodical is dedi- are all basedin j. ~ _ 11 <<l _things in a strong way.* * * *But an examination of the poetry-Jessica Nelson North’s “The LongLeash”—bears out everything Mr.Linn had to say. Not that an ex¬amination is necessary to corrobor¬ate any judgment Mr. Linn has tomake on poetry—that would be bothpresumptuous and (in a child of yourage or mine) arrogant. But evenif the professor did not speak for it,"The Long Leash” would speak foritself. Not “itself” really, for thetitle binds together related poems, orincidents, each of which develops themotif a little farther. It is a longpoem—something over 250 lines, Ishould estimate—and one of the moststriking things about it is that allthat way there is no falling awayfrom the pitch it sets. And that’s anachievement. I read the other poemsin the magazine, the longest of themnot exceeding thirty lines, and after"The Long Leash,” good as theymost of them were, they seemed thin.They didn’t get up on a comparablyhigh level, and often enough theydidn’t maintain the level they did at¬tempt to set. Miss North’s poem re-,minded me of an estimate I heardmade Saturday night at the Sym¬phony of Sowerby’s “MedievalPoem”—that it had tremendous pow¬er in spots, that never once was itcheap, and that in no spot was itthin. All that holds for the consist¬ently maintained “Long Leash.”Of course, it’s manifestly toughfor an undergraduate to attempt anestimate of work that is turned outin his otfn community and by one ofhis own generation (Miss North is, Ithink, about eight or nine years outof coflege). For the would-be criticis hedged in by a circle of Englishliterature anthologies, and the recol¬lection of the technique of criticismthat is practiced in the nineteenthcentury poetry courses he has, as amatter of course, taken. In the circlethat these things represent, he is athome. But outside of that particularcircle of critical range, he suffers alack of confidence. When the stuff’sin the English text books, it’s to beaccepted ipso facto as all right andgood stuff, for it has already been“sanctioned,” so to sp£ak, by theHigher Authorities; otherwise itwouldn’t be in the books. But here,as I say, there’s no perspective al¬lowed a bright and shining lad that*s pretty sure he’s right, but can’tprove it. Still, I’ll stake my reputa¬tion as a moral young man that,some day, “The Long Leash” will it¬self be “taught” in some poetrycourse. Well—Mr. Linn’s done wellby “The Long Leash,” and I, if itmakes any difference, have also donewell by it. Read it yoiirself, In theForge, and I’ll be surprised if youdon’t Ju *ell by it—and it by you This was followed by Chausson'ssymphony, which, to evaluate inwords, would require long strummingof a more poetic lyre than mine. It isunfortunate that Mr. Stock was notable to use his organ ending at thisperformance.Then we were given the suite‘“Through the Locking Glass” byDeems Taylor, the freak effects ofwhich got across with the audience,even thought good percentage of itdid not know the plot of the music.This proves that Taylor knows hisbassoons. The program-music of theaverage composer when played withoutits program in front of the listen¬er is so much kartoffelsuppe, as Mr.Mencken doutbless would phrase it.I am not sure, but it seems likelythat Taylor wrote a few burlesquesin the suite. At least, the openingsnore of the “Jabberwocky” move-(Continued on page 6) Reduction in Price SetsNew RecordLadies Of LeisureReduced To WorkReports from graduates of Bar¬nard College, well-known girls’school, indicate that “ladies of leis¬ure” are becoming extinct. Of the140 members of the 1926 class,twenty-one are continuing withtheir studies preparatory to engag¬ing professional work.The remainder are now clerks,teachers, secretaries, reporters, pub¬licity agents, decorators, designers,or in some similar field. Of allthe class of almost one hundredand fifty, not one has married yet! Tickets for this year’s interclasshop are lower than ever before.An announcement of the price givenin yesterday’s Daily Maroon by theleaders that the bids would be $4.40,erroneously stated that this exceedslast year’s price. Last year thetickets for the hop sold for $5. Thereduction in price is being made bythet leaders, despite the fact that thisyears’ hop is to be held off campus forthe first time in history, at the Black-stone hotel, and that every arrange¬ment has been made to make it thebiggest hop ever held.At a meeting of the leaders yester¬day it was decided to have the hopwinter formal, in accordance with theusual custom and the majority of thecampus opinions. The leaders alsodecided to eliminate the receiving lineof patrons and patronesses partly be¬cause, of thetime it takes up andpartly because of a desire to eliminatany congestion at the entrance.The ticekts for the hop go on saletoday at the Reynolds club, the Uni¬versity bookstone, and at Ida Noyes cated in profound sympathy to all “lespauvres hommes” and the rest of uspoor collegians, who can neither af¬ford a passport to Gay Paree or aticket to this year’s Blackfriar pro¬duction, “Plastered in Paris.” A1Widdifield is guilty of a tantilizing ex¬pose of the whole comedy. GeorgeGruskin further develops the themeby an erudite discussion of “MyTravel-Trip of Europe.” Terrible Turk rises in all his fiercewrath to denounce the so-called broad¬mindedness of the so-called “good fel¬lows” on campus in an article, “Re¬volt.” Other notable contributions tothe “most meaty issue of the Phoenix”are the three pcxems by SterlingNorth, winner of the 1926 FiskePoetry Prize, six versified portraits ofcampus women and “Literary Re¬search,” by George Gruskin, and anarticle by Don Plant, former editor.Unusual artwork has been done onthe issue by Ted Young, Irma Selz,Jane Breuning, and Jack Curliss.The travel issue boasts of an articleby Miss Elizabeth Wallace, recentlyresigned head of the Social ServiceDepartment.

All of this, how¬ever, is merely an annual event withthe good Mr. Thompson, but the sig¬nificant feature of this year’s cruiseis the request made yesterdaj»by themayor of the city that he be furnish¬ed with a speed boat so that he may,at intervals, venture out onto theturbulent waters and rescue benight¬ed indivaduals clinging to house topsand branches of trees, bring them onboard the Cincinnati and restore theirbelief in a Supreme Being with afew glasses of nut brown ale. Suchdoes the good Mr. Thompson pro¬pose to do, altruistic friend of suf¬fering humanity that he is.The scintillating wit and the wide¬spread knowledge of things in gen¬eral which are so characteristic ofthe good Mr. Thompson should flowas freely as the nut brown ale onthis triumphal procession. And thedevoted and staunch allies of ourmayor will laugh heartily at the jest* that will fall from his lips. It shouldbe a great time for all; at least aslong as-the nut brown ale holds out.* * * xThis tornado which hit central Il¬linois yesterday accomplished in a| few minutes damage comparable tothat caused by the overflbw of theMississippi which is still going on.The tornado; ran rampant for theshort while it was in evidence, tear¬ing roofs off houses, blowing ftreesover, and killing more than a dozenpeople. The damage caused by theMississippi flood is taking more tollj in property losses than in lives, andat that, more than a score have beenkilled while thousands have beenmade homeless. This “April showers,May flowers” business is not as ro¬mantic as it sounds.* * *Arthur Pinero’s “Trelawny of theWells” which is being shown at theBlackstone this wreek, is blessed byas excellent a cast as has beenbrought to Chicago this season.

Every actor or actressof national and international reputa¬ tion not working in some other playseems to have been obtained for thisone, which is, incidentally, as good asits cast.#John Drew and Effie Shannon bothexpressed their belief that officialcensorship would never work, in aninterview yesterday, giving as theonly plausible-alternative, a commit¬tee composed of laymen, actors andmanagers. And this, they said, might•work.* * * *An interesting side-light on theSacco-Vanzetti case is the opinionsof ten of the men on the originaljury which condemned the two mento death six years ago as to whetherthey still believe the two to be guilty, jSix of them are still of the same !opinion, holding that both men areguilty of the murder of a paymasterand a guard in an attempted robberyand four refused to comment. Theforeman of the jury has died withinthe six years and the other membercould pot be located.All of the men who expressed anopinion, also commended JudgeThayer on his excellent handling ofthe case. It is the method employedby Judge Thayer which has becomesuch a discussed subject throughoutcivilized nations, and it is on thisthat any hope for Sacco or Vanzet-ti hinges.

YARROW WARNS US/T'HE REVEREND PHILIP YARROW, Superintendent of theIllinois State Vigilance Association, came to the campus theother day and told us all about it. He told us, among otherthings, that we lived in a vice-ridden city, that our generation wasworse than it’s supposed to be (by newspaper writers of a sort),that his work is hard, at times exceedingly unpleasant, but quitenecessary.Mr. Yarrow showed a splendid fervor. .He spoke with thezeal of a Messiah, seeming to feel that his work is really necessaryfor the salvation of our society. His speech was vigorous, showeda complete lack of humor, and was very interesting.After the lecture Mr. Yarrow became involved in an argu¬ment over sex morality, in which he trotted out a lot of old saws.He contradicted himself several times and then retired, chest out,his self-assurance unimpaired.If recent learning has proved anything, it has proved thatthe system of suppression which Mr. Yarrow advocates is worsethan useless. A more rational system of combating obscenity isknown to be possible, and is in fact in use. The Man of God canno longer control people by rattling the flaming sword. Intelli¬gence is about to assume its proper role in affairs of this sort.And, of course, some of us are not quite sure of the very moralityof arbitrary attempts to influence human conduct.A CLUB SING?T ATELY we’ve done nothing but connect every campus occur-rence and local disturbance with the recent advent of Spring.Today we have a new one, as the gentleman who was addicted totelling stories remarked.The neighboring frat clubs have started to tune up for theInterfraternity Sing, that grand old Spring festival which roundsout the quarter annually, and are gripping the neighbors bywheedling out the variegated collection of verses and bars andnotes that pass for fraternity songs.We are quite hardened to the Sing #nd have even grown toenjoy its grand turnout of long lost alumni and chapter renegades.In fact, we have grown so enthusiastic about the proposition thatwe will risk suggesting that our noble women, who represent anumber of clubs, get together and organize a rival sing or asupplementary sing. There are enough alumnae and women ineach club to form a decent sized group and there are enough peo¬ple interested in seeing the women on parade to make the inter¬club sing an interesting feature of the new Pan-Hellenic Sing.Add a few years of good old reliable tradition and the solu¬tion is complete. Stir well before mixing, if weak, use one ortwo Maroon editorials and a bright red poster, then take thewhole thing at one dose and wait to see what happens.This is a Maroon brain child and just because of a professionalpride, we’d like to see the thing tried. *' *tit* HIi* V•I WillntMii1,1 I.JHfuM-Hfi »i. i i■ 1 U N fi & £ V £ L A T I O N A U SALON — LB T £ M P S PARIS"M-m-m, so that’s the new car.

Instead of turningShand over to the police, the brothersmake him a proposition, upon whichthe rest of the story hinges. If thebrothers supply Shand with an educa¬tion for five years, he will consent tomarry Maggie at the end of that time,providing that she is. willing to do this.In other words, Maggie has her owninitiative in the matter, Shand hasnone; however, he accepts.Needless to say, after five years, wefind Shand a great success, havingbeen elected a member of parliament,due 'mainly to the assistance of Mag¬gie. Though decrying the fact thatshe lacks charm, Maggie refuses togive up John and they both gothrough with the bargain—in otherwords, are married. Shand, thoughhis thick Scottish head won’t realizethe fact, owes all his success in hisfirst parltament speeches to his wife.He suddenly conceives a great passionfor a certain Lady Sybil, and is forcedby fate to reveal this love to hiswife.The rest of the story concerns bravelittle Maggie’s clever and successfulefforts to win back her “little boy,” asshe calls John. The play ends hap¬pily with John realizing that he wasnot quite as strong a man as hethought. In all, the play was an en¬tertaining bit of work, with all the ac¬tors doing their parts very well, withthe exception of Lady Sybik. Onewould have to. go a long way to find abetter Maggie for Sir james Barrie’sstory than Helen Hayes and the sameis true of Kenneth MacKenna. Theplay ends with Maggie getting thefirst laugh put of John with her finalInes: “John, Eve was not made outof Adam’s rib, but out of his funnybone.” Wisconsin StripersMajor In Geology“Honest, Mr. Warden, I don’tneed no cap. I’m a collich fctoynow.” So speaks one of the ninetyprisoners who, it was recently an¬nounced, have been enrolled in thecorrespondence school of the Uni¬versity of Wisconsin.Stripes are said to have becomethe rage on the university cam¬pus as a result of the announce¬ment, and the fraternities ar? de¬clared to be vieing with one an¬other in their attempts to pledgethe new students. Unluckily thestate prison is not located in £ookcounty and regrets had to be sentto most of the rushing-party in¬vitations. It is understood thatrock-breaking is to give P. C.credit.The Pigeon at the GoodmanWhitford Kane proves the merit ofhis heretofore alleged dramatic art byhis performance as The Pigeon in theshow by that name at the KennethSawyer Goodman theater. In fact,Mr. Kane usurps the whole play by hisoutstanding color. The play itself isnothing to be heralded as an innovat¬ing victory for the boards. It offers agoodly number of character rolls, butthere is nothing that grips or carrieson in a suspence producing manner.Timson, the cockney cabby, plays hisrole in a professional manner; in fact,the acting of the entire repertorygroup is meritorius.Lonesome Like, a warming up skitpresented before The Pigeon, is also avery entertaining dramatic bit. Mr.Kane again plays the stellar role. NEGRO DEATH RATEWILL KEEP UP UNTILCONDITIONS CHANGEContributors to Social ServiceReview Deplore DeathRate IncreaseChicago’s negro death rate, morethan twice as great as that for theentire city, will continue without im¬provement until public opinion de¬mands provision of agencies of healthfor the negro sections, Dr. H. L.Harris Jr., concludes in a contribu¬tion to the Social Service Review, anew journal just issued by the Uni¬versity Press.In his study of the health facilitiesfor the negro section Dr. Harris findsa lack of hospitals, day nurseries,clinics, infant welfare stations,parks, and other agencies which areof value in lowering death rates.Though Chicago in 1925 had thelowest death rate of any city of amillion or more, with 11.5 deaths perthousand, the negro death rate was22.5, a rate exceeded only by two ofthe most unhealthy cities of theworld, Bombay and Calcutta. Thenegro infant mortality rate was 118per thousand as compared with thewhite rate of 71; negro deaths fromtuberculosis and syphilis were sixtimes those of the whites; pneu¬monia rates were three times great¬er.The Social Service Review, ofwhich the managing editors areEdith Abbott, Dean of the GraduateSchool of Social Service Administra¬tion, and Sophonisba P.

Fathom Causes Of Expansion OfKleptominia Among College BoysCollegiate Kleptomania—a con¬tagion that infects every colony of stu¬dents. That is the assertion made by-students at Ohio State university, andthe observation of collegians every¬where. Is it because of the carelessindifference that goes hand in handwith every group of undergraduates,a part of the toxin that brings aboutsuicide and the other digressions thathave been so much in the news lime¬light of late?Somewhere in the make-up of thecollege student' of today is a strainof blood that comes from other days.It conies, perhaps, from Robin Hoodand his jolly robbers, from CaptainKidd or other plundering pirates ofthe main, or from the brigand bandsthat once swept the plains of Europeand Northern Africa, pillaging as theywent.The urge to plunder, to assume pos¬session of trinkets belonging to others,or, to use the harsher word, to steal,seems to be inbred in college stu¬dents. Unlike their brigand and pirateancestors, they steal, not for theirgain in a monetary way, but just forthe zest of it and in the spirit of asouvenir collector.And so it is that restaurants in theuniversity district find their silverwaremysteriously disapeparing, their teapots vanishing into thin air, theirdrinking glasses vaporizing almost be¬fore their eyes, their sugar bowls dis¬solving into the mists of invisibility,and their saltshakers evanescing intonothingness. Restaurant keepers, ofcourse, are aware of this necromanypracticed by the students, but arepowerless before it because is not thehand quicker than the eye?Restaurant keepers are not the onlyones to suffer from these depredations,although doubtles they are the heaviestsufferers. Other places are plunderedand other things made away with. Thevariety o farticles acquired by the stu¬dent collectors is astounding. Theyrange, aside from those already men¬tioned, from street car signs to booksand spittoons.Bold strokes of petty piracy aremade occasionally. One hears vaguebut frequent rumors that a hugeGrecian urn, a stone object d’art oftremendous weight, has mysteriouslydisappeared from the lobby of a down¬town hotel and reappeared in a fra¬ternity house as a mastodontic ashtray. 'Likewise heavy iron cannon¬balls that long rested beside the can¬non in front of Memorial hall, havevanished, presumably to be metamor¬phosed into oversize paper weights.Another bold stroke has been to ap¬propriate a theatre sign in broad day¬light. Apparently usefulness is nota matter of consideration to collectors.To be fair to both men students andco-eds it must be acknowledged thatneither sex monopolizes the souvenircollecting, although the men are byfar the most active. But did we notsee a co-ed, emulating the Spartan ladof old times who hid a stolen wolfunder his coat only to have it gnawhis vitals, emerge from a sandwichshop with a hot teapot under hercoat?As an extraordinary circumstance of collegiate kleptomania we mightcite the example of the football teamfrom Ohio State that made a trip tothe coast a number of years ago. Onthe return trip meals were served atstation restaurants while the trainwaited. When the special train arrivedat Chicago, representatives of thechain of restaurants boarded it andcollected a sheet full of silverware.And so the collegiate kleptomaniacscollect and collect, pilfer, pillage, andplunder, and there is none clever orheartless enough to say them nay.CLASSICAL SOCIETYBREAKS TRADITIONIN SOCIAL PLANS(Continued from page 1)held Saturday, April 29, in IdaNoyes hall may be obtained for fiftycents from members of the organ¬ization.

Today, al¬ways barring the usual rain, the var¬sity and the squad in general willmix with an alumni-faculty nine,while tomorrow the Royal InsuranceCompany’s athletes will furnish theopposition.

A. U., which permit the barto fall off either way instead of onlvone way, as in the old type of stand¬ards. The new type of standards pre¬vent a jumper holding on the bar withhis shoulder or elbow after he hascleared it as was done by many of theexcellent high jumpers of the pastfew years.The Kansas relays high jump rec¬ord is 6 feet 5 1-8 inches, made TomPoor of the University of Kansas in1925, the year after he competed onthe United States Olympic team. Penstone was elected captain ofnext year’s wrestling team at theannual dinner. He tops the scales at158 lbs. and has made a fair showingin the weight class in which the bestBig Ten grapplers are found. Hisbest bouts this year were againstFurness of Illinois and Howard ofNorthwestern. Both of these ended indraws.One Year LeftLike most of the men on CoachVorres’ team Penstone was handi¬capped by absence of high schooltraining. He has been out for twoyears and has one more year of com¬petition. He will be at the head of arather inexperienced group of wrest¬lers.

There are twosuch athletes in the Conference thisyear, Capt. Charles McGinnis of Wis¬consin and Capt. Phillip Northrup ofMichigan, both seniors.McGinnis, a great athlete in hissophomore and junior years has de¬veloped into one of the greatest all-around stars ever seen in the Con¬ference. In the Big Ten indoor meethe took three first places and he v.ronthe all-around test at the Illinois re¬lays.McGinnis comes from Milwaukee;Northrup is a Detroit product.

E. Jones will take the bulk of themen to the Ohio classic.As the pole vault and the javelinthrow are two major events for Wis¬consin, Coach Jones expects to sendhis ace, Capt. Charles McGinnis, andRobert L. Kreuz to Kansas to repre¬sent the Cardinals. At present noother events will bear Badger repre¬sentation at Kansas, since it is theaim of the Wisconsin team to againcapture the honors won at Columbuslast year.At the Ohio relay meet, thechances for Jones’ men are excep¬tionally bright. Although Capt.McGinnis will not be with his teamto top them off as high point man, ashe has done in every meet this year,the other Card performers shouldfigure in the money. In the one andtwo mile relay events, Wisconsin iswell represented. The personnel ofthe two mile squad consists of RayErickson, who has run well the en¬tire season, Payne, Stowe, andDugan, all men who can be countedupon for a brilliant race. In the onemile, Dugan, Stowe, Kanalz, Cham¬berlain, and Smith will be entered.The half mile also shows promisewith Stowe, Dugan, Smith and Shawcomposing the team.In the distance medal relay, CoachJones has entered a combinationcomposed of all stellar performers inDugan, Erickson, Payne, Petaja, andBullamore.
