Vol. 28. No. 116.Main StreetBy Al E. WiddifieldCome my friends . . . ’Tis not too lateto seek a- newer world. It may be tMtthe gulfs will wash us down ... Itmay be we shall touch the happy isles.Yet our purpose holds ... to sailbeyond the sunset., —Ulysses.It is a pleasant evening this. Theheat of the day has subsided and thecool of evening has come up out ofthe lake and flown through the city.Night will soon sweep down from theskies and smother all in that heavydarkness that becomes these moonlesstimes. It is peaceful, an evening forreading some pleasant verse, or thesinging of an idle song, or the discus¬sing of a lazy topic. Indeed it is notime for thinking on the sordid thingseven though the wash of easy even¬ings cannot eliminate the smudges ofreality, whatever reality is.I have a letter from some one whohas been so foolish as to read thiscolumn. It is unsigned and a bit in¬dignant. I am flattered that anyonelias taken the idle words uttered here¬in so seriously, yet the letter con¬firms some rather rancid assertationsthat were once made. The letter con¬cerns a recent column in which theSophomore was caterwauled for beingsophomoric, an incongruous thing initself. The column made some at¬tempt to describe how the prep schoollad came to college with all his re¬ligious ideals intact, probably neverhaving been disturbed or questioned.Then he became a sophomore, hadlistened to the surface callings oferudition, had become a babling radicaluntil he learned out how much he did¬n’t know, and then turned cynic and.s-keptic. They were idle words, buthere we have reaction;—* 4>My dear Mr. Widdifield:I read your recent “Main Street”dealing with the subject of campus re¬ligion with considerable interest..\llow' me as a sophomore, one ofthose ^who has a “penchant for life’smoribundities” and who bleats his“cacophony about there ain’t no God,there ain’t no Use, and there just.\in’t.” to make a few comments.Recently I conducted an investiga¬tion on a small scale concerning stu¬dent attitudes toward religion. Theinvestigation convinced me that youand a great number of others err insupposing that certain set types of re¬ligious attitude are irrevocably cor¬related with the various stages of col¬lege experience.The modern freshman does not en¬ter college with the Bible under onearm and a confession of faith underthe other. Indeed no, he is as sophis¬ticated as a great majroity of thecynical seniors. Agnosticism and nolonger anthropomorphism is his forte.Occasionally a lamb may come to theslaughter but nowadays they’re prettyfew and far between.It is another common error to sup-fiose that the sophomore is “sopho¬moric”, in the generally accepted senseof that word. The sophomoric in¬dividual is as apt to be a senior as asophomore. -Xnd that idle skepticism,that cynicism and irony which is sup¬posed to distinguish the exalted senioris indeed common property of allclasses. In fact, I even know' a num¬ber of Seniors who are excellent can¬didates for the Rotary club and theMethodist church. And so distinctionon any such grounds is illogical.One might also consider the ques¬tion of values. I sometimes doubtwhether the self-sufficient student withhis mask of contempt and dawdlingindifference is so superior to the soph¬omoric individual, as he is generallyconsidered. There is a need for soph-omorism. Perhaps you don’t realizethat there are still people on the faceof the earth today who go aroundchanting that splendid Salvation armyrefrain, “Life is real, life is earnest,and the grave is not its goal.” Per¬haps in your superiority, you don’trealize that the world is still sufferingunder a host of medieval delusions.You may look with scorn upon the• (Continued on page 2) UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO, FRIDAY.

KerwinP’or continuous sustained noise the1928 mock convention goes down un¬equalled. The Democrats in 1924at Madison Square Garden were out¬done by 500 student delegates of theUniversity. Insofar as delegates be¬cause of the bedlam were not givena thirty percent chance to place can¬didates in nomination the proceed¬ings bordered on the unreal and thefantastic. On the other hand, toomuch can not be said in praise of theofficers of the convention, theNational Committee and its assistingcommittees, and the leaders of dele¬gation and the managers in chargeof the campaigns of candidates. Theyplayed their parts with commendableenthusiasm.Choice of MajorityThe convention choice representswithout doubt the choice of the ma¬jority of the politically-minded on thecampus. The appeal of a favorite.son to local pride does not even es¬cape those being trained to viewquestions of st.nte unemotionally.This is not written in derogation ofMr. Lowden or of his supporters, forMr. Lowden is a candidate of highcl ara'‘ter g 'v-.’ -.c ability, find of un¬doubted achievenient and seorcs .-'up-ported him because of these qual-(Continued on page 4)BREAK GROUND FORJONES LABORATORYGround breaking ceremonies for theGeorge Herbert Jones Chemistry Lab¬oratory will be held next Tuesday, at12 from the steps of Kent Laboratorywhen Mr. George Henry Jones willmake the presentation of the building.Mr. Jones, director of the InlandSteel Company and president of Hill¬side Fluerspar Mines, by his gift of$665,000 made the chemistry labora¬tory possible.

By Dexter Wright Masters'I'here is a picturesque history be¬hind the man who, widely acclaimedin the east, comes to Mandel hall ne.xtTuesday to present his singing enter¬tainment. For Jack Niles, first Lieu¬tenant in the United States .\ir Ser¬vice through the World War, had asnarrow escape from death in that wayas any of the million some that wentacross. Alnd if something hadn’t gonewrong in the normal order of things,it would have been, in the vernacular,“curtains for Jack.” But, and thisis the picturesqueness of it, somethingdid, and Jack Niles came out of thewar as whole as when he went into itand with the greatest collection war-front songs ever compiled.Crashes Ten Thousand FeetAs to the escape. Lieutenant Nileswas cruising about some fen thousandfeet above ground when his plane wentout of control, into a nose dive, andcrashed to ground a few momentslater, depositing Niles sans breath andall but sans life. Totally paralyzedand unable to make a move or asound, he was taken to the morgue asdead and thrown on a heap of bodiesto await burial. It was by the sheer¬est piece of luck that the life in himwas discovered and then not until hehad lain for three days on the pile ofbodies, conscious all of the time butunable to move or speak. After hewas found and operated upon and puton the way to recovery, he lay foreight months on a hospital cot re¬couperating, and it was during thoseeight months that he compiled thesongs he had gathered from the Amer¬ican soldiers, white and negro, allthrough France; the unique melodiesthat show the peculiar trend of thesoldier’s mind and his battle-front psy¬chology. These are the songs whichLieutenant Niles sings and plays inhis entertainment. And the songs aresecond only, in their picturesqueness,to the man who presents them.Visiting ProfessorDiscusses “WomenOf Middle Ages”Thomas Frederick Tout, professorof history in Manchester University,Manchester, England, will lecture on“The Position of Women in the LaterMiddle .‘\ges” today at 4:30 in HarperMil.

Theshow, written by George Morgensternand Milton Mayer, and under the gen¬eral supervision of Derwood Lockard,has undergone several changes duringthree rehearsals this past week direc¬ted by Bartlett Cormack, who stayedthe extra week to smooth over therough places.Plot Same“Although the plot and the settingof the show are the same as theywere last week, many changes havebeen made to assure us of a finishedproduction,” Derwood Lockard, Ab¬bot of Blackfriars, stated. “The crit¬icism of Percy Holmes Boynton,which appeared Wednesday of thisweek, was gladly received by the *whole show, and by the directors inparticular. The places in the secondact, which he said had lagged, havebeen carefully worked over and pol¬ished to produce the finished produc¬tion desired.Lines Changed“Many lines have been changed be¬cause they didn’t get across or wereunnecessary, and several have beenadded. Some of the dances which ap¬peared quite weak, have been carefullyrehearsed. 'I'he music, which wascriticized because it was not evidentenough, will receive a more prominentplace than it did at the first perform¬ances.“'fhe first week,” Lockard conclud¬ed, “was an experiment to try outthe different gags on the audience.Those that were well received havebeen retained, and those v^hich did nottake have been omitted. Now, for theremaining performances, the produc¬tion is one quite finished and polish¬ed.”Entertain Cast'I'lic action of the show takes placetwenty years from now with a “Bus¬iness Administratiun” uinder discus¬sion during a great deal of the action.'Fhe jiroduction represents an attemptof the students to show what theythink the University could do forthem.

Although a mystery to most students theHonor commission fills an important niche on the campus. Tr>’-ing and sentencing cheaters is an obnoxious but highly necessaryfunction. There are many who think that honesty in exams is apurely personal matter, that the student punishes himself whenhe cheats, and that therefore the Honor commission is a busy¬body organization, unnecessarj' to the University. In a sensethey are right, but the commission is not so much a judge of rightor wrong from an ethical point of view, it operates more frompractical reasons. Cheating must be reduced because it is un¬fair to the students who are honest, because it tends toward in¬accurate grades, because the University does not want to award a |xiegree unless it is honestly earned. jThe Honor commission is obviously very necessary to the |University, and does its work pretty well on the whole. We feel,!however, that its effectiveness could be greatly increased with :more faculty cooperation and publicity, both in the promotion ofhonor consciousness and in the publishing of cases.MAIN STREET(Continued on page 4)rabid “sophomore" who attacks allthe moronic institutions that e.xist to¬day,—and perhaps rightly, but I aminclined to believe that there is somevalue in radiating a little of our owneiilightment..\ Sophomore. a)BK Official CollegeF^TEPNITYcJewelrjBad^s-Jlin^s~}^hteltiesWARREN PIPER AGO31 N.

Ithas happened in years w’hen greatissues have cut across party lines.Although this year no such thing willhappen, there is, nevertheless, theissue of prohibition which in all like¬lihood will break down party lines inthe election. Governor Smith ranexceedingly well under the circum¬stances. and the one hundred andtwelve votes given him are a tributeto his record as Governor and hispopularity as a candidate. The sad plight of the old LaFollette liberalsin 1928 in the nation was re/lectedin the mock convention where nobetter substitute for the dynamicBob LaFollette. Sr. could be foundthan Senator Borah.The platform was conservative thistime. It would in no way disturbthe mental equilibrium of Morgan,Stewart, Mellon, et al, nor could itunsettle the placidity of our ChiefMagistrate. The plank on prohibitionhad the merit of being novel and sat¬isfying to those who would preferto view this great issue objectively.It would not satisfy an ardent prohib¬itionist w’ho regards the eighteenthamendment and the Volstead Act asaccomplishments, the results of whichmust be accepted on faith.
