The temple dates fromthe time of the Hebrew exodus intoPalestine. It is especially noteworthyfor the fact that in these records hasbeen found the first mention ofEurope as a factor in history.

BOUCHER Green Cap Candidates InstructedBy Leaders At Circle MeetingKERR LECTURESON SCHOLARSHIP Further plans for the Green Cap Hon¬or Society were outlined at the secondmeeting of Freshman aspirants in theCircle yesterday afternon. According tostatements by “Bucky” Harris and Der-wood Lockhard these include special in¬signia for wear at the games and onthe campus, special events at the games,and other duties.The Freshmen were informed thateach one is to wear a green cap, towhich there must lie attached a greenstreamer. This streamer must be keptparallel to the ground. Each one is alsorequired to put his name on the capfor the convenience of those in charge.Purposes OutlinedThe two purposes of the group, asoutlined by Derwood Lockard in anopening talk, are to organize a keycheering section for the games, and toget up a stunt for the Wisconsin game. ■ Green cap aspirants are to be arranged| in a “C” at all football games, each) with a white cap and shoulder cover.The men will march onto the field be¬fore the game and lead in the cneeiing.Bill Wedell gave the meeting a shortworkout , on a new yell and outlinedthe cheering plans for Saturday’sgame. “Wave the Flag" was also sung.To Buy “C” BooksBy way of closing instructions thefreshmen were instructed to eachbuy a “C” book and have it learnedby next Wednesday.

The modern student indulgesin an extravagant period ofthoughtless fun while the parentsslave.Professor Brownell chiefly lam¬ents the fact that the good timescannot last all of the student’slife. He doubts greatly the goodintentions of most of the studentsfilling the colleges but thinks thatthey are there largely for socialpurposes. The student’s ambitionseems largely to lean toward ameans of preventing studies frominterfering with the fun.GIVE STUDENTSMEDICAL SERVICE JEFFREY LEAVESENDOWMENT FORMECHANIC ARTSSeventy-five Per Centof Estate LeftIn TrustSeventy-five per cent of the es¬tate of Edward T.

And so when we beheld a smudge of greenholding forth on the “C” bench, our first impression was one ofapproval of the new color scheme and our aesthetic sense wasagreeably stimulated. When, however, we drew closer, it becomeapparent to our shocked eyes that the smudge was not there foraesthetic approval, and when we finally realized that the smudgespelled out “Class of ’31“ our spirits dropped to rock bottom.Now it is no original thought to place class numbers in prom¬inent places and the degree of good taste is as low as the original¬ity. It is to be deplored, not because the offense is great but be¬cause it tokens a freshman class, highly heralded in this case, un-knowledged in the ways of a University that harbors gentlemen,and the fact stands that the idea is conceived in vanity and per¬petrated in sheer ignorance of gentlemanly behavior. It’s a thingthat most classes outgrow and a thing that this class, judgingfrom impressions received from other channels, is rather ashamedof. But, for all that, we regret the slip.THE TRAGEDY OF THE INTELLIGENTSIAOD makes all things good; man meddles with them and theyv-J become evil. He forces one soil to yield the products of an¬other, one tree to bear another’s fruit. He destroys and defacesone tree to bear another’s fruit. He destroys and defaces allthings; he loves all that is deformed and monstrous; he will havenothing as nature made it, not even man himself .... Yet thingswould be worse without this edivtation. and mankind cannnot bemade by halves.”Thus spake Jean Jaques Rousseau in the turbulent years ofthe eighteenth century. And he disturbed all France.The Daily Maroon does not in any way intend to take excep¬tion to those dynamic words of the memorable Jean Jaques. Weare only going to wonder if “things would be worse without thiseducation.”For we have been thinking of our Intelligentsia, our cogn<~;_zenti, our literati, our what-not. We have always had them—asilent, rebellious, verbose, liquidly literary clique who have beenthe envy of the unwashed. We are wont to believe that such aclique is absent from the quadrangles today, even though thereare a few of those ardent purposeless souls who liniger languor¬ously in Ellis hall with a copy of Huysman, Dostoyevsky, Diderot,or Immanuel Kant under their arm.But in the main part, we are curious about what has becomeof those imposing figures who swathed themselves in such aCirculation Manager,The Daily Maroon,University of Chicago.Dear Sir:Enclosed find check—money-order for subscription toThe Daily Maroon for year—quarter.Subscription rates:$3.00 per year—$4.50 mailed.$1.50 per year—$2.50 mailed. swank cloak of insoucient and cyni-cized sophistication.What has become of our intelli¬gentsia?Have they gone out to writeplays for the Moscow Art Theater?Have they added reams and reams ofrich literature to the world’s libra¬ry?

Indeed,whereas some years back Chicagowas considered a vital factor in ev¬ery Big Ten championship race, nowthe Maroon eleven is beginning tobe regarded as something mightyakin to “a set-up” by schools forwhom “the” game of the season wasthe Chicago game. This season,from all indications, will be but arepition of the preceding two, anda glance at the freshman squad nowworking out on Stagg field does notreassure one that things will be bet¬ter in 1928.o o oIt is, of course, downright sillyto presume that athletic prestigewhich has been more than a quarterof a century in the building willtumble because of a couple of not-so-good seasons but there is duecaues for alarm when the futurepromises no change for the betterand no steps are taken to remedy acontinuous yearly slump.It is not an easy matter to en- state institutions. In the secondplace, the tuition is enough to makea prospective entran pause beforesigning an application for admit¬tance. In the third place, the strictadmittance requirements which aregrowing more rigid each year arequite a factor in depriving CoachesStagg, Norgren, Crisler et all ofmaterial which could make athletichistory for dear old Chicago.And lastly, there is altogether toolittle encouraging of prep athletesto attend this school, and whatthere is is not of the right kind.Encouragement is a mild word forthe high pressure methods employedby schools now graced with goodathletic teams.
