MayerTomorrow morning at eight comesthe crack of doom. For some of usit lasts through Thursday. For someof Us it is protracted until Friday.For all of us it is the time whenthe asses, having been led to waterfor the past eleven weeks, have todrink. This final examination busi¬ness is, on the whole, bad stuff, Ithink. I think that everybody elsethinks the same way, but we are allin the grip of the “showdown” sys¬tem that asks nothing of a man butthe ability to produce in rapturousquantities on one grand field day,and then lets him slip back into theoblivion whence he arose. I don’tsuppose that anyone any longer be¬lieves that final exams reveal, or evenextort, the extent of a man’s actualknowledge of a subject. Theory cer¬tainly disputes the old tried-and-trueprinciple of passing single and finaljudgment on a man’s capacity to stay-in there and box for two hours, andpractice, insofar as I am conversantwith it, upsets it altogether. I havecrammed for two hours before anexam, say. Joe Blow has ploddedthrough the course like a trooper,studying two hours a day, and everyday during the run of the course. Be¬cause I have a retentive (for so shorta period, anyway) mind, say, I crackout an A exam. But Joe. who reallyknows the stuff cold, gets terrifiedand bewildered when the little yellowbooks file in like pall-bearers, andbusts the course. This is not hokum.It happens every quarter, and mostof us, I think, know it. Now I askyou, with Milt Gross. Is diss a sys¬tem?% w m ^Speaking (or not speaking) offield days, we have one of the bestall ready to be unleashed when, if,we come back to school. God givesto most men the choice betweenheaven and hell, but to us he givesthe World’s Greatest Interscholastic.I have nothing to .say about it, ofcourse, except to say about it, hutthe Interscholastic is the curse of theages, for my money. It is a distrac¬tion all around. It pulls the college \boys over to Bartlett, where they sitfor hours on end until sheer fatiguetakes the gleam of life from theireyes, and their tongues hang outThey miss their meals, throw awaytheir money on the hor.ses, cut theirclasses wholesalely, and drag theirskin and bones away from the finalsno longer any use to anybody, in¬cluding themselves, for the rest ofthe month, or the rest of their lives.It gives the corn-fed lads a glamor¬ous lopsided view of college, particu¬larly this college, and sends themhome poorer, wearier, and no wiser.But it hits me hardest of all. Throughthe Associated Press I serve man¬kind by sitting in a little box, ham¬mering hash on a typewriter, andat the end of each day, when thewires are closed and thf^ place isdark and Ed comes around with hisbroom and dustpan. I am still in mylittle box, hammering hash on mytypewriter, reeling out I know notwhat.* * *A man with one eye and a titledbeauty are the latest price that theair has demanded of man for hisconquest of it. The game seems tobe worth the candle, for they’re stillat it. Hew' through the brine, let theships fall where they may. The worldgasps drunken v.dth adoration at theman who made it. drunken with hor¬ror at the men who didn’t. I don’tknow. The stakes areh’t so high. Ifyou are a mailman, like Lindbergh, ora barnacle, like me, you may nothold your life at a high figure. Allright. Go to it, and this life of yoursyou will probably lose in one of thetwo least painful and protracted 1928fashions—consumption by fire orwater. Go to it, and you will possiblyenhance this life of yours to a rich¬ness defying all measure and all eter¬nity.

Matters of at¬tack and tempo have been settled sothoroughly for this quartet that theirbeginnings and endings seem a mat¬ter of reckless indifference and fav¬oring luck.Four soloists, apparently, seized bychance with one idea. That’s theroyal kind of entertainment theygave us.Page Two THE DAILY MAROON, TUESDAY.

Why The Daily Maroonwas invited, why it w’as so cordially treated, it is difficult to ex¬plain. Perhaps that is just the quaint way of our convivial, vest¬less, mayor. The food, too, was above repoach ....Yes, we knew that the esteem of the somewhat paunchygenlteman for the University was not so great, we had heardmany tales of his contempt for our English gothic architecture,English ivy, and English sparrows. And so, in the space of2 or 3 hours, we received a definite impression of Mr. Thomp¬son. And, briefly, it was the conviction that he is a greater ignor-amous than we ever expected him to be. His speech was a politi¬cal debauch, his statements insulted the intelligence of an evenaverage Chicago citizen, but his psychology was unerring.At his right sat Judge Robert E. Crowe, nominee for re-elec¬tion as district attorney, and it was easy to see that his excel¬lency, the mayor, unfurled the crimson in the ‘America First’ ban¬ner in order that some of the tints play upon the man of thebig chin. “It was Bob, here” said the mayor with a gesture,“that helped Big Bill Thompson take the slander about GeorgeWashington out of the text books in our public schools.” (Ap¬plause).* -■!< sis sj:The group invited by Mr. Thompson represented several hun¬dred thousands of news reading Chicago citizens. There w’ere ahalf dozen prominent editors, there was the owner of a paper with“the largest Lithuanian circulation in the world (and in Chi¬cago)”, there was a famous mystery-story v'riter, there was i.bishop in the Roman Catholic church, there were political bosseswith wing-collars and gold watch chains, there were all kindsof rarae aves dipping spoons into the mayor’s delicious date torts,and punctuating his speech with outbursts of applause. And therewere many of them—when His Highness had finished—who sawhim as a patiotic zealot surrounded by a conniving ring of con¬spirators anxious to slander him in the public press.But the big event of the speech was the expression of his newappeal. He rang Jesus Christ into the argument. “McAndrewsallowed George Washington to be called a scoundrel and a traitor,”he said, laying his broad fist on the Sherman-house boards. “Any¬one who slanders our heroes slanders the things that are sacredin life.” (he lifted his eyes heavenward) “And anyone who be¬smirches the sacred things insults our Savior, Jesus Christ.”(hand-clapping on all sides).The mayor expressed himself nobly in his opening speech.“I don’t know what to talk to you people about, but I’m going totalk to you anyway,” he said. And he did.The mayor’s new dream is for a deep waterway between Chi¬cago and New Orleans. He paints the picture in glowing colors.Why not the St. Lawrence waterway through Canada? Ah, themayor is aghast at this consideration. “Could we have the eyesof John Bull watching the stars and stripes guide our freighters Wedentday, March 21Lenten Service (The Saint Mark’sSociety) : 12, Thorndike Hilton Me-moral chapel.Thursday.

Mr. ElmerGertz, however, has found some raregems in the verse of the man, andin the following column points themout. His article seems to be an at¬tempt to create a new attitude to¬ward the Richard Middleton material.I cannot accept Richard Middle¬ton’s hearty aRreement with the epi-Rrammatic dictum of Watson thatthere is no such creature as a “minorpoet.’’ It is true that the timid Tomsof critici.sm have made the classifi¬cation a reservoir for all their cow¬ardly inhibitions; but even the mostdarinp of critics knows that the coin¬er of one brilliant lyric does notthereupon become a master of poesy,he remains, if he is a Dowson, onlythe author of “Cynara,” unless hefollows up his feat with a wholebody of great poetry. Richard Mid¬dleton. I think, feared his beingclassed as a singer in the minor key.The harsh verdict of those who calledhis poetry little better than maga¬zine verse crietl for violent counter¬attack. On the one hand, he wroteagainst^ the whole philosophy of mi-nor-poetism’’; on the other, he plung¬ed an envenomed knife of starkwords into the epigastrium of onecritic. “To a Critic” begins as a mag¬nificent apology for all poets andends as spite of inordinately poortaste. 1 it for its strange in¬sight :“How shall the little breathOf man suffice to vex me,Having the thought of deathEternally to perplex me;Knowing my best endeavourShall not endure for ever?“I do but live my day.s—.A.nd though my .song bo lonelyI need no critic’s bays,Being a poet, only.The dog may eat his vomit,I get no .sorrow from it.”Middleton was just twenty-ninewhen, seventeen years ago. he senthis bearded self on the (i**eat .Ad¬venture. . .Although he had alwaysmaintained that lack of pelf doesnot explain the suicide of John Da¬vidson or the soul-starvation of oth¬er poets, indubitably it was that lackwhich di.sgusted him to self-destruc¬tion. Unlike Chatterton, he does notneed that dramatic end to enshrinehis poetry, for in itself much of hisW’ork will live with the finest of ourtimes.If poetry is that which sings, thenMiddleton’s work is great. If poetryis more than that elementary thing;if it is an embodiment of thoughtand sound and image which arouseswhirligigs of emotion, then Middle-ton remains great.Your true appraisal of poetic gen¬ius is exemplifying: it is one part thereviewer and nine parts the poet.The reviewer interjects a remarknow and then, merely connecting hisextracts from the poet, as does—letus cite the work nearest at hand—Clarence Harrow in his “essay” onOmar, If the work will live, it sel¬dom needs any more formal intro¬duction. If it will not live, a well-worded examination of its will notblind true lovers. Were I to havefollow'ed this ideal formula, I wouldhave given “The Bathing Boy” infull, and my review would have avery evident completeness.Who can deny the deathless charmof its perfect lines? It has naturalimagery to delight the exacting godsand a velvety sensuousness equal toKeats. (I hasten to add that I amnot alone in this perhaps extravagantprise.) When I read the poem, Isaw the Bathing Boy in naked glory,about to dive with the grace of abronze godling, and I heard the nottoo firm waters splash, while the fir¬mament turned baby blue under thepotency of divine words. Present,too, was an awed sylvan goddess, too,too captivated to think unholythoughts.And “The Last Serenade” is per¬haps as great.

THE QUARTER’S WORKWith the publication of the ar¬ticles on these pages we clear ourdesks of contributions to Mr.Mr. Nicholas John Matsoukas’ATHENAEUM. We feel that thespace and consideration given tothe “open forum” idea has beenwarranted by the interest the con¬tributors and readers have shown.There has, of course, been somefeeble stuff printed under the ban¬ner of the Athenaeum. At othertimes there have been flickeringsof brilliant writing and soundlogic. It is the belief of The DailyMaroon that we should have a reg¬ular space open to those with nopublications affiliations and inthat capacity we intend ’ to con¬tinue the Athenaeum for anotherquarter.loyal best friend of the poet, regardsit as Middleton’s poem of poems. Forquite, cumulative, deep undertone, it,too, stands eager comparison withKeats, although in verbal felicity andin its thought current it may be a.stretch below. Few verses in ourlanguage exceed its concluding ones;“This is the end of all things, thoushalt cease,O i heart, thy timeless journey foblowed far.For all thy days shall be inviolatepeaceAnd all thy starry nights shallknow one starIrradiarit and serene; and thou, ohmind,j Weary of thy long questionings,I shall proveServant of my enchanted life andI findIn all thy ways the wi.sdom thatis love.“The World is drunk with night, there gather slow,From some remoter heaven totempt my bloodThe mutable stars processional, andlo!On all the hills the moonlight is inflood;But I am wakeful yet. Oh song, as¬cendSwift to her ears and bid herdreams depart.Tonight the sombre years shall haveend.Tonight, tonight shall bring her tomy heart!”Earlier in the poem, he says:“This my songShall bring her down to my insurg¬ent breastWhere the blood burns that hasbeen cool too long,”And he refers“To the far gate of heaven, wherethe tideFlings wrack of worlds upon thereverberate shore.” These two poems, “The BathingBoy” and “The Last Serenade,” areimmeasurably superior to all elseMiddleton produced. More frequent¬ly than now and then, he capturedeftective phrases ana auicet move¬ments; but there is no completepoem to rank with the superalivetwo. Hence he yet remains a despised“minor poet.” Middleton was not aflawless poet; even “The Last Ser¬enade” has one or two upsettingphrases and slips are present every¬where in his work. “To Althea wholoves me not” angers one by its clos¬ing line:“Damn you, in some queer way I love you still!” Oh, that Middletonhad remained still for the once! Theline is too feeble to be sophomoriceven. It has the unreal flippancy thatsuggests the columnist. At times, too,Middleton’s words are dissonant; but,in all, he was an excellent technician,better than, let us say, Blake in thatslight respect. But Blake is almost aworld-poet, despite mechanical defi¬ciencies, while Middleton is not. Someof Blake’s rhymes are wretched andyet they are scarcely remarked on,so great is the god.Middleton wrote prose, too, thatArthur Machen and others have prais¬ed: fantasies, children’s tales, someessays, many of them excellent. Hisvolume called “Monologues’! is rep¬resentative, and noteworthy becauseof several bits in it on poetry. Hiscanons of poetical criticism are aph¬oristic and keen. A veiled study ofA. E. Houseman (“The Poet WhoWas”) soars to brilliancy, and theconclusion of “How to be a Poet” is great. After the “How” is disposedof, Middleton asks the “Why,” andthe language has the poigancy of asweated emotion that has been“lived.”Like most of my favorites, Middle-ton passed through life with thecrown of unappreciation. Throughthe efforts of PYank Harris, his poet¬ry was published in “Vanity J'air,”“The English Review” and “TheAcademy,” but during his life-timethere was not a book to his name.Harris spent a year in a futile at¬tempt to beguile someone into ven¬turing a volume, but it was not un¬til self-destruction entered earthendrama that Fisher Unwin put out afew volumes. Eyen today so vast alibrary as that of the University ofChicago—seven hundred thousandbooks here, I am told—has not avolume by Middleton, not even“Poems and Songs.” I dislike thethought that the creator of “TheBathing Boy” and “The Last Seren¬ade,” many-carat jewels in the tiaraof Dame Poesy, will become sub¬merged with all the sad host of “in¬heritors of unfulfilled renown.” Iscarcely think such will be his fate,though the printing prerses flood theworld with a million, million volumesand Mr. Haldeman-Julius enters thepenny field with anthologies of allthe verse from the Psalmist to JerryHammerandsickle. It is a more pleas¬ant to cherish the belief that thebest of even a “minor poet” will sur¬vive.Masters Vies WithLoos In Tivoli BillThe Tivoli theatre at Sixty-thirdand Cottage Grove is putting on thisweek an interesting program featur¬ing on the screen “Gentlemen PreferBlondes,” The main attraction of thestage show is to be Frankie Masters’orchestra in “Blue Plate,”All ivEi; ?cow?.herever you go—on campusground — at football game — insnappy roadster—no matter whatoutdoor activity—there you will seeSawyer’s Sliekers — the unfailingchoice of collegiate style settersthroughout the country.

Walter H. Hebert,Winter Sports ManagerIntramurals during the WinterQuarter exceeded our greatest ex¬pectations. The Fourth Annual Car¬nival which climaxed the quarterwas the greatest show the depart¬ment has ever produced. It surelywas an all campus event and the at¬tendance was even more than we an¬ticipated. It unquestionably showedthat Intramurals is one of the big¬gest campus activities. The basket¬ball tournaments and the minorsports were conducted successfully,interest was high and competitionkeen.Figures Don’t LieDuring the quarter 1267 men com¬peted in the various events, an in¬crease of 300 over last quarter’s par¬ticipation and 260 over last year’sfor the winter quarter.

PAULPage Eight THE DAILY MAROON, TUESDAY, MARCH 20, 1928 /CRIBBING is a pursuit tliat ha*been grossly neglected on this cam¬pus. People around here don't seemto realize their neglect. rhey go toexaminations carrying only the barenecessities—fountain-pen, blotter, andexamlbook—trusting implicity in thefactual reservoir of their minds. Oc¬casionally some freshman, new to ourtraditions, appears at a history examfurtively hiding a tiny list of datesin his vest-pocket. But once he ar¬rives in the frigid atmosphere of theexamination-room, his nerve leaveshim and the tiny list is kept to thevest-pocket—save, perhaps, when itis used as a receptacle for chewed-outchewing-gum at the end of the firsthour of nervous chewing.THE decline of crilibmg can possi¬bly be attributed to variations in styleover the past fifteen years. Men usedto wear starched collars and cuffs withample space for lightly-penciled nota¬tions. Women trod the verdant sodencase anteriorly in .great, puffedshirt-waists that could easily containwhat few textbooks and referencesmight have been needed to cover ex¬amination-questions. These days, how¬ever, the fraternity-hoys wash theirwrists and roll their sleeves; and thedormitory-damsels’ sheer dresseswon’t even stand an extra inner lin¬ing of fine tissue paper, let alone agood-sized informative texthiiok.NOT so many summers ago. wewere in a graduate math course thatwas full of high-school teachers onvacation.
