WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 3, 1928 Price Five CentsAthenaeumUklitor's note—According to thepresent schedule the “Athenaeum”will alternate with “The Blind Alley”in this column on the outside page.Contributions to this department ofThe Daily Maroon are solicited fromany and all who bear a grudge againstthe universe. Today we present one ofthe most erudite pieces of literaturethat we have been pleased to publishso far. And yet we have it on goodauthority that the selection is not thework of some learned professor butthe unsophomoric comments of asophisticated sophomore. We present: FROSH MEET IN CIRCLE AT NOONWANTED; A BETTER EDUCA¬TIONAL SYSTEMBy a Voice in the Wilderness"Six months after Kradiiatinn." la¬ments Glenn Frank, president of tin-University of Wisconsin, “a disheart¬ening number of our sotis and daugh¬ters compete witlj men and womenwho never went to school in votingstra.ght tickets and surrendering to allthe sterilizing conhwinities of ourtime.”For sum a depressing state of af-iair.s there are two main cause>.First, the education most univers¬ities and colleges offer does not culti¬vate thinking minds. Granted: it mayproduce informed minds. Hut as forgraduates delighting in intellectualexercise, interested in public affairsbecause they know their imftortance,capable of applying incisive thoughtto political problems—they are hutthe rare fruit of the itreseiit educa¬tional system.Former Presidetit Masoti’s watch¬word was: “opportutiity, not compul¬sion.” But opportunity is tiot enough.The high .school, which supplies thecollege and university with most ofIts students, is and apparetitly tttusthe the rigid domittioti of the ferule,where the main pedagogical ettcour-agement studetits receive is the goad.Rut at college the goad is tntssitig.Indeed, hetweett the editcatiotial tneth-ods in college, at least of the firsttwo years, and those in high schoolthe only domittattt cleavage is theitniversity professor’s silly and iitisci-entific indifference to indifferent stu¬dents. And most of them are in<hf-ferent to intellecttial etuleavor..Vow merely because a benevolent]>hilosophy of opiiortunity is iiro-nounced, should studetits be expectedto jump hungrily to their hooks?Clearly the sort of education for whichan opportunity is offered must he re¬cast, and the opportunity made bothmore tempting, and, once grasped,more prolific in producitig thinkingminds.5^ond, students have had no prac¬tical training in democratic govern¬ment before they assume the respon¬sibilities of full citizenshij)Ixtok at our own campus. Two orthree hundred of the undergraduateelectorate vote in the elections forclass officers and members of thestudent council, while the rest remainaiiathetic. An atmosphere of stultify¬ing self-complacency deadens almostthe entire student body. To tell thetruth, most of us very mournfully rep¬resent our age if, as they say, youth'smost characteristic attitude is one ofaggressiveness toward the traditionaland the disciplinary, and of passionfor the new and the adventurous.The inertia of the student electoratecan be mainly attributed to the scarc¬ity of political issues that provokedifferences of opinion. The politics ofthe quadrangles rarely produces exi¬gencies demanding decisions import¬ant enough to split the campus. Ourpolitical horizon extends no furtherthan arrangements for the next dance;our presidents are judged by theirtalents as hosts.But if, vis-a-vis with problems thatlax the mind, the undergraduate bodyshould be encouraged to make itsown decisions and to enforce themt.pon representatives of its own, withonly negligible interference on thepart of the administration by appoint¬ments, politics at the university andcollege would become a trainingschool in political understanding, and(Conthued on page 2) SOPH HONORARYSOCIETY MEETSFOR FIRST TIMEPolicies of OrganizationOutlined at InitialGatheringThe Sojihomorc Honorary societyconducted its first meeting of the yearlast evening in the Reynolds Club.This societN' is composed of twentymembers of last year’s Freshman classselected by a committee composed ofRay Murphy, president of the Un¬dergraduate Council, George Morgen-stern, chairman of the Board of Pub¬lications, George ^toon, the .AssistantE.xaminer, Fritz Crisler, assistant .Ath¬letic director and C. .S.

The registration has beengratifyingly large, for this is the firsttime that such a scheme has beentried on such an extensive scale, ac¬cording to Dean Shailer Mathews ofthe Divinity school.The classes are: Early Christianityand Graeco-Roman Society, AssistantProfessor D. W.

Bond.The second collegiate career ofMl*. Gurney, who w’as graduatedfrom the University of Michigan in1880, began on Monday, October 1.the opening of the fall quarter.In enrolling as a student on thecampus Mr. Gurney has stated thathe will be enabled to study foreignlanguages which he will find use¬ful in his contemplated trip to Eu¬rope and the East. By this actionhe will still have some associationwith the University which he hasserved for thirty-five years.Mr, Gurney was automatically re¬tired as an official because of hisage. “It is the duty of the younger gen¬eration to carry out the high ideals,broad ethical standards and sound re¬ligious principles with which thefounders of the University sought toimbue the institution,” said Dr.Charles W. Gilkcy in his address atthe tliirty-sixth annual commemora¬tive service of the first Universitychapel at the new chapel yesterday.Cobb First ChapelThe first chapel service of the Uni¬versity was held in Cobb Hall in1892 under the guidance of the lateWilliam Rainey Harper, our firstI president of the University.

TRAINED HORSESBROUGHT IN FORR. O. T. C. POLOCampus Reverts toPre-Telephone DaysPatience and hiking abilit}* are theprerequisites of the University stu¬dent of today. Gone is the telephone,the necessary luxury of present timeactivity. Communication can no long¬er be secured by entering a telephonebooth, giving a number, and w*aitinga long, long time until the numbercomes through.The University is isolated amid awhirlpool of t iodern civilization. Stu¬dents waste prodigious amounts ofnickels before they notice the “Out ofOrder” signs on the phones. Theyare forced to hike painstakingly overthe campus for any bit of infor:iia-tion they may seek.NAll this inconvenience is due to acable that burnt out at the switch¬board yesterday. With two trained polo horses re¬cruited from the Oak Brook Polo clubalready in the stables of the military.science department, six more cavalryhorses are expected to arrive earlynext week from the University of Wis¬consin, according to Maj.

Okl acquaintances have been jrenewed, freshmen have been initiated into the ways of the Uni- Iversity, the outside reading for courses is hanging like the sword 'of Damocles over the heads of the students, the room-mate’s col- |lection of ties has been thoroughly inspected, the football sea- json is on us, and vacation is a thing of reminiscence.The standard query of “Have a good vacation?” reveals thatthe ways and activities of college students in the dear ol’ sum¬mertime were numerous and varied. Many contributed to thesocial uplift of the nation by forcing, in quantities greater than ,ever before. Fuller brushes, Saturday Evening Post subscriptions, |road maps, and vacuum cleaners on innocent and non-sales-resist-ing housewives. Others made it their business to convince pros¬ects that certain real estate lots were veritable gold mines wheth¬er or not they felt convinced of the fact themselves. Still others,of huskier frames and tougher lungs, wielded ice tongs, took upthe pick and shovel to dig a foundation ground for a movie houseor a beauty cream manufacturing plant. Individuals more for- |tunate by circumstances merely sat on the club’s front porch sip- iping lemonade and playing tennis at alternate intervals through- ;out the sunny months. Few, almost e.xclusively graduate stu¬dents plodding towards a degree and its ultimate remuneration,did research work in different parts of the globe.But for the most art the scene was one of a mad rush fromthe college campuses into the whirl of the economic system wheremotives solely mercenary and commercial guided the activities ofc.f the youth just released from the bonds of learning. Forgottenw'ere Heine, Plato and Hegel trampled upon were the vexing prob¬lems of philosophy and science in this mad gold rush of the springof ’28. And the same rush, the same quest will be repeated in thespring of ’29, and, we dare say, for many more springs to come.It is the practical, hard-headed material attitude that hasevolved from the self-dependent, rural times of pre-Civil WarAmerica until it is now an outstanding national characteristci. Itseems impossible to reconcile the scholarly life of the Universityand its values with the present economic order and its solitaryend. Knowledge so far as it helps in the breaking down of salesresistance and the gathering of gold is the only worthwhile knowl¬edge in the work-a-day world. Knowledge is not an end in itselfor a way of appreciation of a fuller, more aesthetic existence,but a means to an end, wealth. And to this end everything pyra¬mids; all else must be excluded in its achievement.Even V> the Amerif^an rollege man, with very few excep¬tions, the pursuit of knowledge and the delights of aekheticismfade into the past never to be recurred upon graduation. He livesthe finer life for four periods of nine months each and then com¬pletely relinquishes it.But, as we said, school has again started in earnest; vaca¬tion is a thing of reminiscence; and we face nine months more ofHeine, Plato and Hegel.

SternFrom a perusal of the rest of theRiK Ten results on Saturday, namelyIndiana’s achievements against StateNormal and Wabash—it becomes evi¬dent that the Western Conference isabout to lose its perennial pancake.That happy ex-Maroon, Pat Page, isdriving the Hoosiers out of the rutwith no easy lash and the Hoosiersare responding. Indiana may still bea bit away from the top but the dis¬tance is steadily growing less. Pageclaims that from now' on any teamwill be able to take pride in lickinghis crew, instead of just speaking ofthe achievement in an offhand fashion.The stpiad at Rloomington will bestronger tlian in 1^27. It is to beremembered that Indiana had a handin the ehampionshii» decision lastyear, liy virtue of their 14 to 14 affairwith Minnesota, tiuis depriving the(iophers of their first place claim.Thus it is not surprising that Page’siKiys have gained lots of confidenceand eagernes>. Those two tpialitieshave, in the pa.st, carried many amediocre team fiirther than anyonehad the right to exi'ect. 1 he replace¬ments for this year are quite a ruggedassortment, also, and tlie varsity menare, per usual, more experienced.On the other hand there is the bone¬breaking schedule that the lUiosiershave taken on. Michigan, Illinois, and()hio State are all October oppon¬ents, Minnesota, Northwestern, and1‘urdue come in Ni'vember, .and ()kl;i-homa, the team which wrought suchhavoc here last year, faces the Pagemen on. this coming Saturdy, Com¬parison .shows that Indiana h.as by farthe hardest assignment of an> mid-western school, always, of course, ex¬cepting Notre lime.The men in MartHUi who take theheld against Wyoming and the hope¬ful Lake Forest outfit this week willmost certainly be an entirely differentacting outfit from the ( hicago squadthat took part in last .Saturday’s fes¬tival even if not more than about h.ilfof the training that they are gettingsinks in—for Coach istagg and his as-scKiates have certaiulx been usingultra-high-pressure methods these lasttwo afternoons.rile t'arolina and Kipon affairsserveil their purpo.se well and the firsthand information that was derivedfrom the observations of the coachessituated at various points of vantage isenabling. .Mr. Stagg to apiily some ex¬pert condensed instruction to thepoints of apparanet weakness. Over inone corner of the field the linemen ofthe outfit have had constant drill inthe arts of blocking and sweepingcertain spaces clear of opposition.Their worst feature to date has beentheir seeming inability to clear theway for the backfield, which in itsown right, is sufficiently fleet butwhich can hardly be expected to »loa'y decent running over ground clut-ttred up with unoccupied opposition.S >, in their given corner of the fieldtl'e linesmen are doing iiuite a bitof heavy drill.Also for both sessions to date theOld Iv'ai has kept two teams at workon passt.^. If a team gets so that itcan coordinate on expertly intricatepasses it stands to reason that whenit comes to line plays or straight endruns that team will certainly knowwhat to do. riiis much talked of‘liolish’ is rather an important featurein grid competition.
