“COMPLETECAMPUSCOVERAGE” m Begin final vreek ofCharity Drive.Vol. 28. No. 36. UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO. WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 5, 1928 Price Five CentsEditor's note: No comment need¬ed. This author may sign himself"Ignorans" but pseudonyms and ti¬tles can’t hide genuine merit. "Ig-norans” knows his onions. And welike this column even if you don’t.NOT CHANGING THE SUBJECTBy IgnoransHad I not the evidence beforeme in black and white, I should nothave believed that such pre-adoles¬cents as Virus Homo, West SideBlues, and the rest could be found inthe University. Not since I was sixyears old have I felt the aversion tothe opposite sex that seems to poisontheir circulation. Not since I wasseventeen have the cares of theworld lain so heavily on my shoul¬ders. May I dismiss these apostlesof perversion thus summarily, andspeak of something perhaps not moreimportant, but at least different.Twenty-five hundred years agoHomer wrote of Zeus’s revels withthe ladies of earth. They tell us thatwas wicked. Later when Jehovah didlikewise, it was, so they tell us, the“immaculate conception.” Homerspoke of the Olympian council oftwelve. That, too, was pagan. Therereally are only four gods,—the Fa¬ther, the Son, the Holy Ghost, andthe Devil. Of course we have out¬grown all of that by now. Our so¬ciology professors assure i;s thatthe whole thing is merely a “socialphenomenon.”Some poet spoke majestically ofbeing the master of his fate, thecaptain of his soul. Now they tell usthat we have no soul, and if we didhave, we are certainly not mastersof it. We thought we were the cen¬ter of the universe. Now they tellus we are only a passing phase onthe periphery, just a monkey that gotkicked out of one tree and couldn’tfind another.They tell us to be patient. Wemust have the tools wherewith toformulate an answer. But life isshort. We do not care a damn (apol¬ogies to whoever thinks one neces¬sary) about 1776, H2S04, the bin¬omial theorem, or any other of themiscellaneous abracadabra of a lib¬eral education, except in so far asthey can be shown to be necessarymeans toward our desired end,—namely, that we shall come to knowwhat this odd life is all about. Toolsto be sure. But let them be tools,not mere baggage.They tell us that men have soughtin vain, these thousands of years,for the answer to this riddle weare so rashly challenging. But topoint out the difficulty does not min¬imize the need. We are still,—Godknows why, when they discourage usso much, when they try so hard topacify us with a teething-ring ofcommonplaces,—we are still ideal¬ists. We still hope to end the search,and find, at the foot of the rainbow,the gold of assurance and stability.They tell us that as we grow old¬er, we shall “find ourselves”—thatwe shall find the truth as it existsfor us. That irritates us most ofall. When they cannot tell us whatwe want to know, we cannot believethey have found anything better thana rut. “Setting down” seems to benot the achievement of the end, buta cowardly abandonment of thesearch. Perhaps that explains whywhen somebody does try to tell uswhat a man can believe, we pay noattention. We fear that he knows nomore about it than we do,—and that,of course, is nothing. Yet we, as Isaid, still have our ideals.But in the meantime,—to returnto my opening motif,—let us nothold the world too heavily on oure^houlders. There are things thatmake life not altogether unbearable.There is the vine of forgetfulnessand peace; there is the touch oftrembling lips as the moon slantsacrosal a woman’s upturned face;there are sunny autumn mornings inJackson Park; rain on Lake Michi-iran; and the Alma Mater at teno’clock. Even the prospect of a win¬ter in Chicago has its compensations. DR. ALEXANDER A.

University ClinicsBusy with StudentsWith between sixty and eightystudents a day applying for treat¬ment at the University StudentHealth service, the medical staffhas reached its highest activitysince the opening of the depart¬ment a year and a half ago.Twenty students have been con¬fined to the hospital and threecases have been diagnosed as in¬fluenza.Colds are the chief complaint,according to Dr. Emmet Bay, as¬sistant in the department.

FrankensteinThere are symphonies, and thenmore symphonies, and then there isTHE symphony, by Cesar Franck.This piece came yesterday deftlyplaced in Mr. Stock’s program ofelaborate contrasts at Mandel hall.The program began with Bhch, Schu¬mann, contrasting Bach with his con¬temporary, Handel, said the musicof the second was triumphal, themusic of the first elemental. And sowith the prelude, chorale and fugueMr. Stock played.The symphony was followed byStrauss’ rondo, “Til Eulenspiegel,”a musical evocation of the elephan¬tine peasant humor of old time tales.There was the scherzo from Mendel¬ssohn’s “Midsummer Night’s Dream”music—will o’ the wisp stuff, neatlynocturnal and romantic. And theprogrram concluded with two move¬ments of Rimski-Korsakov’s “Span¬ish Caprice,” a glorious burst ofsimple minded joy in rhythms, dancetunes, and the things that can bedone to a symphony orchestra.But the symphony of CesarFranck eludes all such epithets—doubtless because it contains all thethe qualities assignable to Bach, orMendelssohn or Rimski-Korsakov,(and has none of the dry, calculat¬ing braininess of Richard Strauss'and then goes on.

He secured a strong policequard from the Iraq government andtraveled widely through the regionsbetween the Tigris and Euphratesrivers, where native unrest as a re¬sult of post-war troubles still ren¬ders travel precarious.

Dr. Maximow hadbeen suffering from angina pectorisfor the last three years.“Great Los*”—LongHis associates at the Universitylamented Dr. Maximow’s death as agreat scientific loss. “It is a greatpity that Dr. Maximow could nothave lived for another five years atleast,^’ said Dr. Esmond R. Long.“The effort of twenty-five years wasjust coming to fruition and he need¬ed only a little longer to bring allhis work to a significant conclusion.”Dr. Maximow was one of the lead¬ing authorities of the world on bloodand connection tissues, and his writ¬ings had been incorporated in thestandard text books. He was bornat St. Petersburg, Russia, January22, 1874. In 1899 he received theM. D. degree from the Imperial Mil¬itary Academy of Medicine, St. Pe¬tersburg, and was given a D.

Adoption of a deferred fraternity and club rushing plan.LOOKING BACKWith the heat and excitement of the presidential election longago subsided, it is possible to view its significances from a per¬spective.The excitement was quick in dying down; complacency beganits inroads at about 10 o’clock the evening of election day whenradio returns assured Mr. Hoover of the presidency. By the nextmorning the people of the land had settled down to normalcy again;all was well, the destiny of the country was in the safe hands ofthe Republican party; prosperity and the Volstead Act would per¬sist.The returns of the election must be gratifying to the Repub¬lican party. Not merely because their candidate was successfulthis particular time—the returns indicated much more significantand sweeping truths than that to the Grand Old Party. The electionwas not a referendum on issues; it was an indorsement solely of theRepublican Party wth its single slogan and issue called prosperity.It indicated that the voting power of the country still believes thatwhile the Republican party is in rule God will smile on the land;and that so long as wecan meet our installment payments the prob¬lems of life are solved.We look forward to long Republican rule. The attitude of thetypical American is that rule by Republicans is an unwritten Iawof the land. There are no issues when a Republican is up; electionis merely a time for a declaration of faith. Republicanism and pros¬perity have become synonymous in the American mind. There seemsbut one obstacle to everlasting government by Republicans; and thatis the return of hard times. Then and then only will the Republicanship of state, built exclusively from the staves of prosperity, rock orpossibly overturn altogether.The complete demoralization of the Democratic party in thelate election was to be expected. It has been in the present centurymerely a body of discordant elements who have not had anythingmore in common with one another than with the Republicans. Lackof singleness of purpose has proven impracticable to party polit'cs,and the break-up of the heretofore Solid South was the dying gaspof the party of Cleveland.With the house of Democratism—only a temporary habitationanyway—blown from over their heads, what a certain element wholined themselves with Smith in the recent election will do is prob¬lematical. This is an element that the Republican party can neverabsorb; disliking, as that element does, the smug and stifling com¬placency and conservatism of that party, and believing, as it does,that prosperity is not the only good thing in life, that it is open toquestion whether prosperity is a Republican brew, and that it is alsodoubtful whether prosperity will be preserved by Republicanism.This element migh* form a new party. But its chances of suocess measured in the terms of a majority electoral vote will remainmighty slim until something of economic significance occurs to sug¬gest to the wide ballot-signing public that the contention that Re¬publicanism and Prosperity go hand in hand might be, after all,merely a myth. To expect that this voting public might eventuallybecome bored with the single and restricted diet of Prosperity andwant something more is dreaming of a most extravagant sort.

Chang-non and Kaplan, veterans from lastyears’ team, are almost certain tostart at forward posts. At the guardsfour good men are contesting forregular berths, these being Abbott,Blattburg, Fish and Cassle.

A.A. and team work can be taken asregrular physical education class forcredit. This yard’s senior squad haswon the championship in the inter¬class swimming competition for threesuccessive years and with a few ofits old stars back, will probably makea strong bid for a fourth win. Withan unusual amount of good materialamong the underclassmen, however,the season promises some keen inter¬class competition. Tarpon club meet¬ings and open hour swimming havebrought some likely candidates tothe surface and freshmen, sopho¬mores, juniors and seniors are urged jto register for advanced swimming.
