This time it is an¬other Mencken-jr., Mr. SamuelHermon, who offers us a super¬analysis of <ill the “homo campus-ana”—as he calls them—ip theirnative haunts. He takes a crackat everybody. He slaughters allthe groups, the groups that are<md the group® that “ain’t.” He,too, px)or soul, is somewhat of aliterary exhibitionist and his scath¬ing cacophony is a wail about thesuperficiality, artificiality, and allthe other “alities.” Take the floor,Sam ....

Its^ habitat is, fortunately,the peculiar institution, .VmericanCollege, where, harmless, its membersspawn, pass a short hut revolutionaryinfancy, specialize, die, metamorphizeinto—the great Me Duff family who, inCommon, for four year> was exposedto the virus learning, and passed on,unscathed.Interesting, amusing, perhaps char¬acteristic, is Homo Campusan Literati,’unjustly stigmatized under the term,intelligentsia. The archaic term, intelli¬gentsia, is unfortunate in that it sug¬gests, Intelligence, which is very rare,indeed, among Homo Campusan Lit¬erati. Much better, by far, is the pop¬ular term—"Bright Men.’’“Bright Men’’ although in thespecies, “Mn on Campus,” a standard¬ized, witless group, is closely relatedto “Big Men on Campus” which is anexceptionally vicious species. “BrightMen” handle the campus publications,gather in little, intellectual groups,play with phrases and verses, exudea characteristic wit, wander about ir¬rationally with far off looks in theireyes and pljics in their mouths, sit,sleep, and occasionally awake to makea “brilliant remark” in classrooms;and, in general, make themselves ob¬noxious. Among their most highlydeveloped sensory-motor reactions istheir ability to sneer.“Bright Men” sneer on the slight¬est occasion. One and all, they sneerat the “Pluggers,” a species whichspends long and fruitless hours pre¬paring work for classroom recitation ina futile uninspired, yet pathetic man¬ner. The “plugger,” in their estimationis in the lowest stratum of the habitat,American College, being on a par, asa dreadful bore, with the “Flushers,”individuals of the species that has spe¬cialized in talking to, flattering, ac¬companying and assumitig unjustifiedinterest in “Profs” in order to get“Grades.”Tlie sneer at “Pluggers,” “Flushers”and “Grades’ has finally evolved intoa general sneer at Phi Beta Kappa.Phihetians serve as a general source oflaughter for “Bright Men.” They for¬get that the conspicuous display of the“Key” is as much a sign of acepm-plishment, in a way, as is their ownaccomplishment of seei.ig their namesover a grandiose, witless, almost semii-moronic conglomerations of personalmental meandcrations, superficial,pseudo-philosophical poetry or hope¬less wit.

Fifty menare engaged in^ work in the depart¬ment, more than in any other activ¬ity. Fifty-eight per cent of the menenrolled in the undergraduate schoolscompeted; 11 per cent could haveparticipated, but did not; 31 per centwere prevented from entering intoactive competition because of outsidework. One hundred thirty-seven stu¬dents also competed in Intramurals.EDUCATORS ASSERTYOUNG PUPILS AREBETTER STUDENTS Mirror InitiatesSearch for Miss,Prudence Parks“Statistics show that the studentswho enter college young are betterscholars, on the average, than thosewho are older,” according to Dr.Abbott Lawrence Ixiwell, presidentof Harvard University.Dr. Forrest Kingsbury, of thePsychology Department, agrees, butadds that age is not the only cri¬terion. “It dejiends on the student,”he said. “.A fair index may begained from the capacity and habitsexhibited in the preparatory school,and from the .seriousness with whichhe regards the whole college prob¬lem.”Mr. George R. Moon, of the ex¬aminer’s office, asserts that enteringstudents of seventeen and a halfyears or less are usually best; thoseover twenty, medium; and that thosebetw'een seventeen and a half yearsand twenty are the poorest students.Club InitiatesAt W.

VON DER OSTENRETURNS FROMASIA EmOITIONGerman Directs HittiteExcavations InAsia MinorAn unnoticed ancient metropolis ofAsia Minor, the first strata of whichhas been above the ground for decadeswas recently brought to light by H.H. von der Osten from the Uni-sity of Berlin and field director of theHittite ex])edition sponsored by theUniversity. On his return to campusyesterday Mr. von der Osten said;“Time alone can prove the importanceof our discovery. It is believed how¬ever that the excavations will be ofimmense value to students.”Discover RuinsThe ruins which attracted the ex¬cavators were first noticed by Mr. vonder Osten and his wife May 28, 1927,while they were on a walk after afatiguing day. On their wa^ back toYozgad they passed a site which wassimply noted on the map as a moun¬tain with nothing to indicate the im¬posing ruins of the unknown ancientcip. which crowned it.Largest Pre-Greek City“Although we were both dead tired,”Mr. von der Osten said, “my wife in¬sisted that we climb to the top and in-veMigate. Exploration proved to usthat it is the site of the largest pre-(ireek city of Asia Minor, a city thatin its day miust have been one of thecliief cultural and political centers ofthe great Hittite empire that flourish¬ed in the second millennium l^efore thet hristian era. Negro BurglarLaments FollyThe burly Negro second story manwho so nearly succeeded, yesterdayafternoon, in emptying the Acaciawardrobe of all its collegiate gar¬ments is now mournfully meditatingon his folly in a cell at the HydePark police station. Casper Corleyis his name, and he fell a victim tothe combined assault of three stu¬dents—William Gardiner, James Beckand Thomas McCleery.William Gardiner had entered thevestibule of the Acacia house toanswer a telephone when he perceivedthe six-foot thief, who had stuffedmany articles of wearing apparel ina suitcase. In the struggle whichensued, Gardiner received reinforce¬ments and the capture resulted.

This year’s general manager of Intramurals isthe gent who happens to be president of the Undergraduate Coun¬cil—Arnold Johnson. Of a consequence, one of the subordinateIntramural managers would have to be chosen.

Whynot?* >!e :)! *THE LIBRARY SITUATIONA General announcement from Mr. Raney, who is taking overthe directorship of the University Libraries following Mr.Hanson’s departure to the Vatican, reached the offices in HarperLibrar yyesterday. It announced that the only heat or light toenter Harper after 12 noon Saturday will come from the steamradiators and the sun in the heavens above. The rest of the poweris being utilized to do some sort of constructive work in the phy¬sical structure of the building.The agitation for a reform in the library situation originatedin the faculty somewhere, after both faculty and students hadendured a seeminbly irremediable state of affairs for years. TheDaily Maroon took up the torch and exchanged compliments andletters with everyone connected with the library or any one ofits books, and the upshot of the matter was that everyone ac¬knowledged that the Library Situation was a bad one, and thatwe’d all pull together and set it right.Mr. Raney was particularly cooperative and bright spirited,and it looks as though things are going to be done. Another vic-tor>’ for the public weal and the common welfare.♦ * * ♦THAT CLOSED DRIVELast spring The Daily Maroon asked whoever closed thedrive leading past the entrances to the women’s dormitories ifhe or they would not open said drive for the good of everyoneconcerned, and particularly for the beautification of the campus.The administration produced five good reasons for closingthe drive. The fundamental reason was that the sleepy or stu¬dious girls were bothered by late and early hour tourists. TheDaily Maroon answered this with the belief that the girls wouldrather be disturbed than walk from University Avenue or Fifty-Ninth Street, and that the disturbance might be eliminated byone or more “DO NOT DISTURB” signs. But that was only arecommendation.The Daily Maroon had a plea to make. It pleaded that thedrive be opened or obliterated on the grounds that as useless,forbidden ground, the drive was a scar on the face of the cam-Dus. And it was. And still is.A Sttooillfttoji^tienup anti 57th StreetOon O^den Oo^t ~ ministerSUNDAY, FEBRUARY 12, 1928I 1 A. M.—“Faith in Society."6 P.

H. B. GORDONCountee Cullen cannot be classedas a race poet in the same sense asJames Weldon Johnson and Langs¬ton Hughes. Their writings, on thewhole, class them as folks poets striv¬ing to give adequate expression tothe Negro temperament and spiritu¬ality — those broad characteristicsconsidered racial. Both Johnson andHughes are interested in the elemen¬tal Negro, believing that in him arefound the true African heritage andage-long modifications untouched bythe newer civilization.The adaptation of these racial in¬heritances to .\merican white civili¬zation following emancipation broughtforth the exotic and fiery imagination,the high-strung emotions suppressedby a sudden change from a free stateto an iron-fast rigidity, and all theinfinite simplicity of sentiment in theNegro. Johnson gathered the fieryelemental fantasies of the Negro min¬ister, and bodied them in pure Englishdiction and free verse retaining thespirituality and wealth of imagery.God's Trombones, Langston Hughes,using both dialect and idioms, flingsforth the emotional spirit in weirdpatterns of jazz. Each poet objectively expresses general observedcharacteristics; each is singing for arace.Countee Cullen is singing forCountee, because he feels the need ofexpression. He fashions songs fromhis own soul, out of his experiences,songs of universal subjects: “Loversof Earth,” “Conrad,” “Keats,” “Ad¬vices to Beauty,” “Pagan Prayer,”“Judas Iscariot,” and because fatehas made him a Negro, he sings of his“Heritage” and his “Shroud of Color.”Due should approach Countee Cul¬len, first, as an English lyrist. Hisexcellent diction gives fullest expres¬sion to the sematic qualities of thelanguage. The conventional patternsare adequate for his purjwse; for inthe main his works are confined tothe lyric forms: sonnets, odes, elegies,threnodies. There is a classical re¬straint which gives him poise evenwhen his wildest passions are allowedthe flow of freedom in his rhythms:from “An Old Story”:“ ‘I must be ready when he comes,’she said,‘Besieger of the heart, the longadored;.4nd I shall know him by his regaltread,And by the grace peculiar to mylord.Upon my mouth his lips shall be asword;Splendid is he by whom this breastshall fall,This hive of honey burst, this fruitbe cored.’So l)eauty that would be a willingthrallKept vigil, eyes aglow, ear tuned tohear his call.”When Cullen does handle Negrothemes, he makes them a part of him-.self; he is an individualistic lyrist.Only because he has a poetical tem¬perament—which may be racial—does he give us such poignant, beau¬tiful pieces as “To a Brown GirlDead”:“With two white roses on her breasts,White candles at head and feet.Dark Madonna of the grave she rests;Lord Death has found her sweet.“Her mother pawned her weddingringTo lay her out in white;She’d be so proud she’d dance andsingTo see herself tonight.”Compare with the above the lastverse of the “Colored Blues Singer”by Cullen:“Somewhere Jeritza breaks her heartOn symbols Verdi wrote;You tear the strings of your soulapart.Blood dripping note by note.”Could not the same comparison ofa blues singer and an opera star be(Continued on page 4) Best SellersFICTION' Another novel has forged itsway into the battle-scarred ranksof the best-sellers.

(Boni) $2.50.Mr. Wilder’s second novel is worthyof the high acclaim it has l)een re¬ceiving at the hands of the criticsand the thousands of book readerswho are responsible for it beingplaced among the best sellers. It isa novel of careful and definite con¬struction. Its plan is as obvious asthe girders on a bridge. The back¬bone of the weird tale rests upon theshoulders of Father Juniper, whoopens the book by seeing the mysticbridge of San Luis Rey fall with fivepersons on it. “Was it an accident,or was it Providence?” the old monkasked himself. He searches out thelives of those five who were plungedto their death in the canyon, the livesof Uncle Pio, of Esteban, of Pepito,and then he left his strange tractsto be condemned a heretic and leanupon a flame in the square of Lima.It is a strange story, a story thatshows how these five lost lives inter¬mingled, how their fabrics werewoven with the drabs and grays offutility, how it must have been anact of Providence that led them forthupon the bridge that day, and with asingle stroke of an unseen haqd castthem forth into the abyss below whichwas the abyss of death,was the abyss of eternity.Thornton Wilder has told a storyin a simple way, which in itself isan earmark of a great novel. Onecan read it at a single sitting, andhe could have understood the quiet,even diction at the age of ten. Thereare no flourishes, there is little ob¬vious passion. There is an overtonethat is rich, and a coloring that isdeep and mature.. It is a tale ofpeople, not of situation. Its ges¬ture is futility, and its influence spir¬itual. We salute Mr.* Wilder as oneof our brilliant new novelists.—.4. IP.THE LAST POST, by Ford MadoxFord.By Iris GoodmanTo the people back home who suf¬fered privation only to the extent ofmeatless days and eatless days,stories that treat any angle of thewar were hailed eagerly. Thus theex-soldiers enriched by their experi¬ences abroad, contributed a vastamount of literature to the alreadyover-crowded field of letters.Regardless of this overcrowded¬ness, “The Last Post,” by FordMadox Ford will find a prominentplace. Hailed by the Literary Guildas the best book of the month, it isonly necessary, after a careful read¬ing of the book, to justify the choiceof their famous editorial board,headed by Carl Van Doren.“The Last Post” deals with the oldorder of the English nobility givingway to the middle-class rise.

Now Hardy has gone;and I suppose most of us who havemet him have the odd feling that wehave been addressed by the imme¬morial English Landscape, and thatfor once it was not impersonal; ithad a wise and kindly face, its greatage had a touch of youthful fun inits blue eyes and it responded quitesimply and as though it had knownus for a long time. The strange no¬tion fades again as though we hadbeen deceiving ourselves. Hardy hasgone. But a faith is left with usthat in the perplexing and oftensorry scheme of things beauty, whichis truth, is abiding; we can believethere is something in what is merelylovely and of good report which issuperior to time and change.

Rather, it’s not as goodas it well might be and the fact thatwe had to sit through five acts of ef¬fort which was obviously not at allgood effort, and which the actors musthave known wasn’t good effort, andwhich they didn’t attempt to makegood effort, nijade us a little mad. Forall that, though, it’s never dull.1 won’t attempt to tell you the in¬tricacies of the play, since I’m nonetoo sure myself. The plot is of a youngmen with a had case of “hyper-in¬tegrity” and ardent belief in the “claimof the ideal,” and the woeful resultsbrought about by his attempts to bringothers to his beliefs. The young man,played by Roman Bohnen, is an ex¬ceedingly exasperating person, whichis what Ibsen meant him to be, butI'm not sure whether it’s his actingor lack of acting that makes him so.Gregers Werle, who is the exasper¬ating young man in the play, despiseshis father because of certain infidel¬ities or poor husbandship, and at¬tributes his “poor dear mother’s” un¬timely death to the cruel thought ofthose infidelities. Hence, after takinga highly mjelodramatic leave of thefather, who bites his lips and breatheshis breaths as the true villain should,Gregers sets out with the glorious mis¬sion of bringing about a reformationin the married life of his close friend,Hialmar. 'I'his he does by exposinga few dead and buried sins of the pastand when it’s all over the friend hasrenounced his wife, the daughter ofthe friend has killed herself, and Greg¬ers has fulfilled his mission of found¬ing the marriage on truth and knowl¬edge.Of course, the whole symbolism isin the story of the wild duck of Hial-mar’s daughter, Hedvig, which wasshot, .retrieved, saved and forced tolive in a garret as a family pet. Youget your answer to your natural“should it have been saved?” whenyou see the havoc Gregers ca.’ses,shooting and trying to save the humanwild ducks. Transpose, and you haveyour moral. Mr. Ibsen did a good jobin writing the play, I think, but Mr.VVhitford Kane and his troupe are notquite so good in acting it.Ashton Steven’s wife, KatherineKrug, was pretty fair as the daughter,although 1 don’t think Henrik Ibsenwould have wanted her to interpret thel)art in quite as peculiar a manner asshe did. Kllen Root, in a small towm,was excellent hut got no great chanceto really test her worth, and Whit-ford Kane, in none too large a part,was far short of his usual standard.•As a final word, I wish that theywould get a good make-up man.(Continued from col. 2)economic, which was previouslyknown only through the politicalnews of Associated Press service.Through his subjective presentationof his characters we feel vividly theirattitudes tow'ard the war, towardEngland, toward each other, and thew’hole systeni of decadent moralsamong the nobility.While the style of the author is al¬most lyrical in parts, it is hard tounderstand because of its obscurity.Clarity I regard as one of the virtuesof waiting and this Mr. Ford dis¬tinctly avoids in the effort to presentmore effectively the mood.But this is not a serious criticismsince Carlyle and other famous men,too, obscured their thoughts beneaththe onslaught of words.

Tilden isdefending champion. Senn’s power isevidenced by the fact that it coppedthe senior division city tank title. Til¬den. although strengthened by the ad¬dition of good men from its champion¬ship junior team, will be slightly hand¬icapped by ineligibility. Despite lackof competition up to the present time,Evanston is feared because its prac¬ tice records show that there are manyindividual stars on the team.Battle In MedleyThere will l)e a good battle in themedley relay between Tilden andRoosevelt. Both teams claim havingwon the event in the 1. A.
