Vol. 28. No. 38.Main StreetBy Milton S. MayerI have an elder brother,-Howard byname, whose God-inspired mission it isto amuse those few subscribers to theChicago Evening American who, be¬ing able to read, do not have to con¬fine themselves to the pictures. He isresponsible, for instance, for the AskMe Another?” column (or whateverthey call it) that appears daily in Mr.Hearst’s great words-of-one-syllablenewspaper. The other day Howardand I met on the street. "How areyou?” he said. “How are you? I re¬plied. “You ought to 'Iron in at homeonce in a while," saic.: Howard, andsee how things are getting on." “So 1ought,” 1 said. “Did you know thatma beat up pa for coming home drunkwithout his wages Saturday night?”“I didn’t know that,” I said, "but sheought to do it more often. It 11 do theold man good." Well, we rattled thefamily skeleton that way for a while,and then conversation began to ebb.Suddenly Howard drove into the vestpocket of pa’s last year’s blue sergeand pulled out a notebook. “By theway,” he said. “I have some prettygood questions on tap for tomorrow’s“Ask Me Another” column. "Is thatso?” I said. “In what direction doesthe Panama Canal run and whatpresident’s initials were M. F.?” How¬ard shot at me. ‘East and west andGeorge Washington,” 1 blurted out.There was a sneer on Howard's lipand contempt in his voice. “As youstand, you are a blemish on the houseof Mayer, and furthermore,” he mut¬tered darkly, tipping his last year’shat and moving on, ’ I am beginningto think that you are as ignorant asyou look.”* * *And so I am. Brother Howard wasright. Every day in every way I seemyself a vastest aggregate mass ofinsurmountable ignorance in the wholeworld.“So was it when I was a child,So is it now I am no man,So be it when I die.”I have never known with whomthe war of 1812 (if there was onethat year) was fought, nor which par¬ty favors which tariff. I am com- ’pletely in the fog regarding the Leagueof Nations, the protein value of spin¬ach, and the number of cubic feet ofdirt in a 6x6 hole in the ground. Ihave never connected with all the littlepearls of wisdom that my fellows inthe Great Human Brotherhood havepicked up simply by being on earth.For two solid years now' I have writ¬ten sports for the Associated Press,and I haven’t the dimmest idea ofwhat a touchback is. One day I wentdown to the Herald and Examiner,that symbol of all that is honorable Iin journalism, and said "I am a poorboy trying to earn my way. Howabout a job?” Tears came into thecity editor’s eyes, and he put meon the payroll. And tears have beencoming into his eyes ever since. I atnmajoring in General Literature at thisInstitution of Higher Learning, andthe only literature, general or other¬wise, that I have ever read is theprogram at the State and Congress andthe menu at Lincoln Turner Hall.* * *And so, when I wrote a couple ofpages of bilge on the women of Eu¬rope for last month’s Phoenix, I was .flailed by the masses as a man of ig¬norance and bad taste. I had alreadyprofessed my ignorance in the Phoe¬nix, as I have done here, and anyonewho reads the Phoenix has bad tastehimself, so I didn’t mind much. ButI am writing one for this month’sPhoenix saying how much I liked thedawn in the hills above Dorking Townand the hors d’oeuvre at the Restura-tion Italia in Brussels. I may be anignorant lad, but I know what I like.And no one car boot me for that—not even brother Howard.( UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 2, 1927 Price Five CentsFESTIVAL ENDS CHARITY DRIVEMASON TO OPENHOME PROBLEMCONFABJODAYGovernment OfficialsBusiness LeadersLecturePresident Max Mason will open theconference on “The Problems of theHousehold Buyer," being held underthe direction of the Home Economicsdepartment, today at 2:30 in the the¬ater of Ida Noyes hall.The gathering will include a numberof officials of the LTnited States Gov¬ernment, and some of the best know'nbusiness leaders of Chicago and near¬by territory.

H. WilkinsTeaching is the most important ofall the wide variety of a college’s func¬tions, Ernest Hatch Wilkins, formerlydean of the University and now presi¬dent of Oberlin College, says in hisbook, the “Changing College,” whichhas just been published by the Univer¬sity Press."The quality of the teaching is themeasure of the college. If the teach¬ing is good, the college is a good col¬lege, even though its plant be inade¬quate and its athletic stars be dim. Ifthe teaching is poor, the college is apoor college, even though it lias aFreshman Week and a psychiatrist,”President Wilkins says.There is no conflict between re¬search and good teaching in the opin¬ion of the Oberlin president. “The en¬thusiasm of research tends to permeateall the related teaching field and theteacher is a better teacher because ofhis research. Moreover, youth lovespioneering. The knowledge of trueachievement engenders respect, and ifthe teacher finds it possible to admita qualified student to participate, evenhumble participation, in research, thatexperience may well become a majorforce in the building of the boy’s men¬tality.The views expressed by the Oberlinpresident are those which constitutehis program at the Ohio college.Freshman Women’sCouncil To ElectPermanent LeadersNominations and the election of per¬manent chairman secretary and treasurer of the Freshman Women’s Clubwill be held at 3 fireside tea on Tues¬day, December 6 at 3:30 in the Y.W. room of Ida Noyes hall.The council, composed of twenty-four women representing the fresh¬man class, w'ill sponsor the tea.

CAMPUS TALENTSTAGE PROGRAMAT GALAJVENTPlan Bohemian Atmo¬sphere At SaturdayNight CelebrationSettlement Night, which has beendescribed, dissected, and extoled dur¬ing these last few days will be heldtomorrow' night in a manner, accordingto the committee in charge, fully aspretentious as the advance noticeshave promised. The vaudeville acts,three hours of them starting at 7:30and running on through, have beenpolished and rehearsed until they glis¬ten with professional brilliance. Thedancing, continuous all evening, w'illbe one of the high-lights of the eve¬ning with Cope Harvey playing, andthe booths will function as booths al¬ways do, while the spirit of Bohem-ianism pervades the whole atmosphere.Closes Settlement DriveSettlement Night draws to a closethe whole Settlement drive for theUniversity’s “hou^e behind the yards.”And with the drawing of the curtain,the committee feels that it has sur¬passed any previous endeavors, accord¬ing to Holmes Boynton, general chair¬man. The results of tag day have notyet been announced, nor is it yetknown what results the personal sub¬scriptions will bring, “But,” in thewords of Russell Whitney, managerof the drive under Boynton, “The pri¬mary object of Settlement Night is notto merely raise money, but is to cre¬ate student good-will and have thestudents enjoy themselves while theyare becoming interested in the Settle¬ment project.”Everything which might contributeto the enjoyment of the evening hasbeen thought of and provided by thechairmen of Settlement Night. Thedancing is certain to be a main attrac¬tion with the orchestra which has beensecured, while for those who do notcare to dance there is a choice of vau¬deville, or an inspection tour of thebooths or perhaps both.Request Early AttendanceThe committees in charge havemade a special request that everyonearrive early so that vaudeville, dancing,everything, may get off to a good startand so that no time may be lost inreaching and sustaining the peak ofenjoyment.

Settlement Night must be classed as “one of those events”simply because it is one. Settlement Night, it is true, has a diffi¬cult time in proving adequate to the expectations of its patrons,but we, as partially representative of those patrons, are forced toadmit that the Night not only lives up to advance predictions butusually exceeds them.Settlement Night is always painted in roseate colors. It’sgiven for “the kiddies” and its agents sound much the sameappeal that George M. Cohan made famous. That’s why the ad¬vance notices are apt to be a bit flowery, and that’s also why,when Settlement Night finally arrives and passes in better man¬ner than the most enthusiastic publicity agent has described it,we should be a bit more generous in doling out praise to the com¬mittees that ran it.Staiement Night will always be hard to put over becauseit has much to live up to. It has much to live up to because in¬herently it means much.DETAILS AS DETRIMENTSWHAT is the University’s worst course? Is there any sub¬ject being taught here which is antiquated and useless inboth content and method? Is there any whose very presentationdoes not in any way build up the scholastic reputation that theuniversity has established?Judging from the speech delivered by President Mason inwhich he rated Chicago with Harvard as the best in the country,we could not suppose that here on Campus could exist any mid-Victorian methods, any pathetic inefficiency in instruction, that ischaracteristic of the less fortunate schools of learning. Weheartily agree with President Mason in his praises, but still docast a lamenting eye on certain misfortunes within the institution.One of the most flagrant of these is the course in introduc¬tion to Shakspere. We believe it is in its childishness, in itscrudeness, in its utter ineffectiveness, a study which is no wayin harmony with our present high standards. The class sessionsseem to be one long lecture stuffed with disconnected, unrelatedtechnical and controversial points, which may have slumberedpeacefully and more appropriately in some Master’s thesis, wherein its ascetic dust they may have been saved from the fate offilling out fifty boresome minutes. The examinations mirror thestandard which is to be upheld: A knowledge of the meanings ofobsolete words and phrases should be the aim of every prospec¬tive “A” student.Shaksperes plays at relatively few times were given anyconsideration which might show the great artistic elements, thegreat understanding of human nature, the real opportunities fortrue appreciation, which lie inherently within them.We cannot imagine the real aim of this course. One thingis certain: the manner of teaching creates in the average studenta dislike and disgust for any investigation into Elizabethandrama, because of the failure to treat intelligently those elementsthat make for interest in any literature, because of the dominat¬ing emphasis on insignificant details.

Painting and sculptureare static. They define, classify andclarify. Music sweeps us with anemotional appeal that carries all be¬fore it. The major development ofmusic as we know it has only beenmade during the past three hundredyears. Of late we have witnessed astraining for novelty, as with thepresent-day jazz movement, but thi3is only a temporary phase, and willpass away. These points were em¬bodied in the lecture given by I>r.Edward Howard Griggs to a packedhouse in Fullerton hall, Art institute,last Tuesday. The speaker held hislarge audience to the end with hissubtle comparisons, and opened upa world of possibilities in the intel¬lectual and emotional enjoyment ofthe fine arts. Poetry, he said, asalso literature, was originally creat¬ed to be spoken aloud. Then, asculture spread, it was read by theindividual for his inner spiritual edi¬fication. But poetry is nothing morethan music set to words. To illus¬trate this, passages from Words¬worth’s and Shelley’s poems wereread, Shelley’s written from his is¬land exile, with its message of sad¬ness, yet filled not only with musicalcadences, hut with intellectual con¬tent as well. Dante’s description ofthe tragic love of Francesca and Pa-ola as given in Canto 5 of his “In¬ferno,” was compared to the paintingby Watts of the same subject whicnhung in the World’s Fair Fine Artsbuilding. Both painting and poemconveyed the story of eternal loveand eternal suffering, and in musicits counterpart was found in thestrains of Tristan and Isolde. Itcannot be said that any one of thearts is finer than the other. Weneed all of them to satisfy the spiritof man. Dr. Griggs gave his finallecture last Tuesday, the subject ofwhich was “Beauty and Cultureof the Spirit.” Robert Harshe,director of the Art Institute ofChicago, delivered an address atthe University of Nebraska on No¬vember 22, on the subject, “Scholar¬ships in the Fine Arts.” He receivedan honorary degree of Doctor ofFine Arts.The University press publishes afirst edition of Oliver Goldsmith’sessays.One hundred and fifty years afterhis death, a first edition of OliverGoldsmith’s essays are to be pub¬lished by the University of ChicagoPress. The “New Essays” are theresult of the scholarship and indus¬try of Professor Ronald S. Crane ofthe university’s English department,who recently discovered in Englanda prose version of the famous “De¬serted Village,” as well as fifteenhiterto unknown essays by Goldsmith.The book, the format of which is tobe similar to Goldsmith first editions,is expected to be highly prized bycollectors.Until Professor Crane found thematerial in England last summer, itwas believed that “Sweet Auburn,loveliest village of the plain,” wasnot in England, but in Ireland. Stu¬dents of English literature have heldthe opinion that the evictions of theEnglish general, Robert Napier, inthe neighborhood of Lissey, Ireland,furnished the origin of the original“Deserted Village.” Instead, theprose version shows that the essay,and the poem, written eight yearslater, were called forth by the rapidprogress of the agricultural revolu¬tion in England in the period begin¬ning in 1760.Professor Crane found the newversion of the “Deserted Village” inJune, 1762, number of an old maga¬zine, “Lloyd’s Evening Post.” Pass¬ages in the essay are not only paral¬lel to parts of the poem, but alsoto passages in Goldsmith’s novel,“The Vicar of Wakefield.” There isalso a marked resemblance to Gold¬smith’s poem. “The Traveller.” THE WEEKLY REVIEW“Wherein We Dissertate on the Theater, Art, Literature with a Few Notes for the Man About Town”Published Every Friday As a Supplement to the Daily MaroonOUR WEEKLY WORDBest SellersThe following books are re¬ported by Brentano’s as beingmost in demand the past week:FICTION“Red Sky at Morning,” by Mar¬garet Kennedy (Doubleday,Page).

If you area student of the short story, it willinterest you. All the stories in Mr.O’Brien’s collection are competent toamuse the reader, and are good ex¬amples of what points of techniqueare necessary to make a yarn sell.The five Irish stories, I found, helda much higher average both in styleand meat than the English. One ofthem, “Rebels They Were Called,”was the only story in the book thatcould lay any claim to distinction.Several of the British tales weremere propaganda in defense of oneclass or another. This fact is inter¬esting as a reflection of the present-day thought in England, but propa¬ganda has a disastrous effect on thestory telling.Accustomed as we are to the mod¬ern manner of such artists as thelate Kathrine Mansfield, SherwoodAnderson, and Ernest Hemingway, inwhich a man’s thoughts for an houror a day, a single and isolated phy-(Cnntinned on nag*1 Concerning Bruce Barton’s ChristianBy Gene WeaferWhen a young sinner reaches thegloriously inquisitive and d*fiant agein which he sneaks out behind thebarn to take a courageous drag on thecorn silk, to recite tohis friends thatnaughty song spicedwith the word ‘damn’or to investigatesome of the more in¬triguing mysteries oflife, he approachesthat inevitable stageof self-realizationluring which he pos¬sesses a lurking sus-. Bruce Bartonpicion that there isn’t any Santa Claus.He may rush with the question toMamma or wisely keep the secret tohimself.Barton Becomes MammaIf we are to assume the authentic¬ity of a letter, packed with a thou¬sand doubts, written by a businessman to the famous author, Bruce Bar¬ton, a great spiritual awakening hascome about among the Babbitts ortheir fellow superiors. The merchanthas paused in his manufacture ofroach powder, handy appliances, orwhat not, to consider the importanceof God and Immortality and Religionin the light of the Christian concept.Barton has calmed the great restless¬ ness by crooning with great soothing¬ness the comforting words that thegreat and noble platitudes are, as faras his far seeing mind can tell, true.He has written, with only a gestureat open mindedness, the book “WhatCan a Man Believe,” and has assumedthe position in the limelight as Mam¬ma.Perhaps a GrandstanderPappa Public might present a newfur coat, perhaps be as generous ashe was last time with “The Man No¬body Knows” which was unprecedent¬ed in sale and popularity. Whateverhis ultimate purpose, unwarranted op¬timism beams out in every conclu¬sion. Surely his wishy-washy lack offrankness puts him in the same classwith the Y. M. C. A. leader or thesecretary of the Ladies’’ Auxiliary.He is not scientifically inquisitive, butpurposely dogmatic.Book Is ConsolingI cannot call this book a sincerepiece of thinking. It is an emotionaloutburst—a song with the rythm andbalance and swing like that whichthrobs from the pages of an obligingnewspaper, a song with the suggestivewords born of the cleverness of a stu¬dent of human nature. As though outof the depths of a dreary night, it flowsconsoling the mind of the weary wornwith doubt, and lull and soothes, softand slow, soft and slow.WHAT'S DOING ON CAMPUSElisibeth TaylorThe other day the news came aroundthat some one had been reading thiscolumn. In the rosey after glow wewould like to say to any reading nowthat any additions or details of partiesare always welcome. It is impossibleto get in touch with all of the peopleentertaining and often the most in¬teresting features of a dance are leftout. If it wouldn't be too much troubledo try to get some of the plans overto the office so you can get some realpublicity on the next rout. The or¬chestra, noted guests, unusual decor¬ations or costumes are all tidbits thata column thrives on. Due to Thanks¬giving we have a few choice partiesleft over from last week. The PhiDelta Upsilons gave a hard times par¬ty at ti e University Hall. Mr. andMrs. W. E. Ganson, Mr. and Mrs. Ar¬thur Holt, Mr. and Mrs. Trout cha¬peroned. Hard-times parties have beenvery popular this fall and they all seemto have been most successful. The D.K. E. gave a charming house dancelast Friday and Mr. and Mrs. Wil¬liam Gannill and Mr. and Mrs. DavidMeachum chaperoned. The Southernclub entertained last week with abridge and dance. It was chaperonedby Mr. and Mrs.-Jackson. In lookingover the records we were pleased tonotice the Sigma club was registered for a house dance. Aside from thisevery thing seemed all right. Mr. andMrs. Bartlett Ford chaperoned.The settlement tea was planned forWednesday but due to some confusionat the Phi Psi house it was changedto Friday. These teas should be verywell received and we trust this wasa huge success. Thursday, the Psy¬chology club has signed for a partyand it will be very good we think.Friday marks the Three Way Par¬ty. This is always a big social eventand the general feeling is of pride ifyou’re going. There are many changesthis year as it is being held off cam¬pus for the first time and is a dinnerdance instead of a progressive party.Of course you have heard the musicin Spike Hamilton’s Opera club or¬chestra and the place iho Opera club.In short when bigger and better par¬ties are given Dke. Alpha Delt, andPsi U will give them. The Wyvernsare giving their fall dance at the Wom¬en’s athletic club this week-end. Pro¬files of the pledges are going to be aninteresting novelty. Mr. and Mrs.Lewis and Mr. and Mrs. Pattersonwill chaperon. The Phi Gamma Deltaare planning a house dance with MrsFylefield and Mrs. F. E. Law chap¬eroning and the Phi Kappa Psis aregiving a parents banquet Settlementnight.“Outbreak ” at the GoodmanBy George Leo GruskinThe Godman Memorial Theatre isharboring “Outbreak,” a fine new playof Vedrenne’s, acted—as the programsays—for the first time on any stage.It is a story of people confronted withthe end of the world. An old EnglishLord is holding a houseparty in honorof his son’s engagement. The fiancee’sformer sweetheart and his mistress arealso invited. One the first night, justbefore supper, the Aristocrat and theVicar of the parish discuss the prob¬lem of how they would act if theyhad but a month to live—what wouldhappen to the world if the future wereirretrievably certain—and soon all ofthe guests have taken a turn at thegeneral discussion. After supper, whilelistening to tR« radio, a peculiar whi#t ling tone is heard through the loud¬speaker, and the regular program isinterrupted by a voice from the otherside that tells them the end of theworld is six days off. They think it isa hoax, until they cut the w’ires lead¬ing to the set and the voice still per¬sists. Little doubt of the voice’s ac¬tuality is left in their minds when it islearned that the same message washeard all over the world; that eachperson received it in his own language!The rest of the play is concerned withthe si xdavs and what happens (andwhat!).Whitford Kane, of course, gives asplendid performance as the vicar andLucille Colbert, Roman Bohnen, Rich¬ard Steele, Bob Miles and Rita An-tci%y arc almost as good.

Virgilio Lazzari and Vit¬torio Trevisan will offer their side¬splitting comedy in two other impor¬tant parts.Mary Garden’s first reappearanceof the season in Tuesday night’s“Monna Vanna” will also bring for¬ward for the first time this winterFernand Ansseau, the noted Belgiantenor, and Vanni-Marcoux, the ac¬complished Franco-Italian baritone.This will be the first Chicago per¬formance of the Maeterlinck-Fevriermusic drama in which these threefamous principals have appeared to¬gether, and Roberto Moranzoni willconduct the work for the first time.Edouard Cotreuil and ortheis willcomplete the cast. “Mbnna Vanna”has not been sung at the Auditori¬um since the season of 1923-24.The special Friday evening per¬formance of “Carmen” will bringone of the most popular works in thorepertoire to its first hearing of theseason. The performances of MissGarden and Mr. Ansseau in this“perfect opera,” as it has beencalled, have always evoked wave aft¬er wave of excitement, when givenat the Auditorium. About BooksAnd PeopleBy Sterling NorthTHE END OF THE WORLDQuite unexpectedly as VasserotThe Armless ambidextrian was light¬ingA match between his great and sec¬ond toeAnd Ralph the lion was engaged inbitingThe neck of Madame Sossman whilethe drumThe drum pointed and Teeny wasabout to coughIn walse time swinging Jocko by thethumb—Quite unexpectedly the top blew off:And there, there overhead, therethere hung overThose thousands of white faces,those dazed eyesThere in the starless dark thepoise, the loveri There with vast wings across thecancelled skiesThere in the sudden blackness theblack pallOf nothing, nothing, nothing—noth¬ing at all.This and a dozen other poems ofArchibald MacLeish suggests the oneunexploited realm left the creativeimagination. I do not mean thecircus nor even the chaotic sense ofmeasureless darkness, I mean the in¬numerable borderline emotions hith¬erto avoided because of the extremedifficulty encountered in their re¬production. I do not deny that arather close approach has been madeto these emotions in every art form.Tragedy and Comedy have beenmixed almost since the recognitionof either. The sinister and the hu¬morous, the ironic and the sad, areforever being introduced into a sin¬gle piece of work, but the admixturein the past has invariably been ac¬complished by applying quantities ofeach of the primary colors and leav¬ing any blending to chance.When Charles Chaplin succeeds inmaking the sad seem funny and thefunny seem sad that approaches whatI mean. When Anita Loose in “Gen¬tlemen Prefer Blondes,” intends tobe funny and succeeds in beingsomething better, that is what Imean. When Fannie Hurst in “Apas-sionatta” attempts to be somethingbetter and merely succeeds in beingfunny, that is not what I mean. Buteach of these has a sufficiently firmfoundation on either side of the tran¬sitional emotion. The story in whicnCharles Chaplin is able to producethe two emotions is a story with ele¬ments of each.Now conceive such a perfect blend¬ing, or rather such a perfect choiceof intermediate tone, that you canno longer distinguish the emotionsyou experience on reading as tran¬sitional emotions, but instead classifythem as new emotions, unexploredand unknown, and you have some ofthe work of Ernest Hemmingwayand of E. E. Cummings. I will notquarrel with those who say that thishumor is to produce the sinister, orthat this occasional slap-stick (onthe part of E. E. Cummings) is toproduce the tragic; but I feel surethat every now and again the resulttranscends the mere use of one emo¬tion as a means to produce another,and arrives, perhaps through chance,at a mood bearing no imemdiate re¬lation to any other mood.As I was saying, this is an unex¬ploited realm. These emotions existin such narrow dimensions that theydemand the most exquisite balanceon the part of the artist. A singlefalse note and the effect is irretriev¬ably lost. For the most part they liebetween the comic and the tragic.They are too subtle for popular con¬sumption. The writer who attemptstheir creation runs the risk of beingaccused of writing dull comedy orhalf baked tragedy. But their im¬portance and the excitement withwhich a young writer perceives theireffects is worth the risk.Page Four THE DAILY MAROON, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 2, 1927We Specialize in Good FoodFor College FolksCome and Try ItTHE NEW COLLEGE INN1021 E. 61 st StreetWITCHKITCHINN6325 Woodlawn Ave.GOOD FOODServed in a place that s“different.”Table D’hote Luncheon 40cDinner 75cSandwiches, Cakes, Pies Edgeworthis alwaysgoodon the draw©'Xphmm QjOtxjujJca^TOWERTHEATRE63‘ 6-’BLACKSTOMEV I PM-CONTINUOUS-UPWl5 — Big Vaudeville Acts — 5andLATEST FEATUREPHOTOPLAYSNew Price CutWEEKNIGUT BARGAIN PRICESlOOO 2000balcony seats main floor seats35< 50< BILLIARDSCIGARETTESCIGARS — PIPESICE CREAM — CANDIESMALTED MILKS gzC £STAGGFIELDr<VChristmas Giftsfor Men V55TH STREETYour tight hat won’t interferewith the right glassesThe snug fit of the new cloche abso¬lutely dictates White Gold rimless glasseswhich don’t bind or cut at the templesor the ears.

Afew more applications are expected tobe turned in before the deadline atfive o'clock today, after which no en¬tries will be accepted.The preliminaries will he held onthe 6th and 7th at 3:30, while thefinals will be held on the 8th at 7:15.The events will include the 40, 100 and220 yard free style dashes; the 60yard backstroke; fancy high dive andthe relay. The relay will be 160 yardswith each man swimming 40 yards.As an added attraction Hyde Park,Lindblom, Englewood, Tilden andSenn will compete in a relay race.These high school teams are aboutthe best in the city and the victor iscertain to finish high up in the citystanding. Still another feature will bea relay between graduate teams of theUniversity.The “Britons” copped the title lastyear with Chi Psi a strong Isecond.This year the competition promises tobe exceedingly keen with such swim¬mers as iLockwood, Tucker, Ferris,Hagey and Stewart entered The 40and 100 yard dashes will be fiercelycontested between Lockwood, Ferris,and numerous others. Tucker shouldmake an excellent showing in thebackstroke events.Practically every fraternity has en¬tered a team and with numerous otherorganizations competing, the Carnival jpromises to be an all school affair. In¬terest has always been high before theSwimming fest and this year is wellup to standard. The intramural de¬partment is working steadily to seethat the huge throng, which is ex¬pected to witness the event, is welltaken care of. Showing a great improvement inoffense and defense, the Phi Psis wonthe right to play for the I. M. touch-ball championship by defeating PhiDelta Theta in a one-sided semi-finalcontest 24-0.Victors FastThe speed of the winners was thedeciding factor in the victory, andmade it possible for them to break upthe previous air-tight defense of thePhi Delts. Gist, of basketball andtrack fame, by his long runs and pret¬ty coaches, proved the star of the af¬ternoon. He accounted for three ofthe winning touchdowns, and bore thebrunt of the running and passing at¬tack. Farwell and Budd also come infor their share in the victory. Farwei:did plenty of work on the receivingend, while Budd intercepted a pass fora score in the final period.The Phi Delts, showing plenty offight, made several good gains onpasses, but were unable to comethrough when yards were most needed.Berniger played the best game forthe losers, while Johnson did goodwork in intercepting Phi Psi passes.Phi Psi will meet Psi U, championsfor the last two seasons this afternoonon field 3, 60th and Woodlawn, at 3:00for first place honors.

(Continued from page 3)chological crisis or a sudden emo¬tional gesture serves as a story onthe strength of its power to suggest;we tend to forget that there is sucha thing in short story writing as com¬plete development and finished form.Wilbur Daniel Steele has held to theold manner, and his “Man Who SawThrough Heaven” is a splendid pieceof work. He follows the charactershe tells us about, from the sugges¬tion of the event he is to record, tothe final moment. The movement isswift and every emphasis made is asure touch in preparation for thecrash to come, and he has a magnifi¬cent way of bringing the climaxdown on your head when you leastexpect it. “Bubbles,” with its learyovertures of honor, takes the breathout of you. Two or three of thestories have a poetic rhythm thatgives them the moving power of aballad. Steele is surely a master.One can hardly compare the workof Steele and Hemingway. Steeletells stories; Hemingway records lifeas he sees it—snatches up a man ora section of his own experience andasks you to look. “Men WithoutWomen” is not journalistic, asHecht’s “1001 Afternoons” are, andavoids the romantic coloring of An¬derson’s “Horses and Men.” It isphotographic and yet given true lifeand power by the hard, unsenti¬mental sympathy of the writer. Everycharacter is presented with a trueand honest tolerance. He does notjudge his'characters. They are notset befoi’e you as moral, immoral,or unmoral.
