sisf'^ Vol. 28. No. 86. UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO, TUESDAY, APRIL 16, 1929 Price Five Cent*The Blind AlleyBj Loui* H. EngelAdvertising is a great racket. Andmany are the crimes against proprietyand good taste that have been com¬mitted in its name. But of late a fewrefined souls of the caliber of Mr.Robert Fisher and his brother in Betabondage, Mr. John Rackow, have un¬dertaken to raise the cultural level ofthe American populace. The days ofthe screaming yellow-green billboardsand other aesthetic atrocities are over.Advertising is becoming high class.Delicate futurism, foreign phrases,and a great show of erudition charac¬terize the latest modern art. Youmust have noticed this trend in TheDaily Maroon, which caters only tothe better class of tradespeople and ispainstakingly selective in the matterof its advertisements (accent on thesecond syllaible).It was last summer, however, thatI had occasion to study the moat am¬bitious attempt to measure up to thehigh literary calling of modern adver¬tising that has yet come within mylimited ken. I went into a restaurantdowntown, one of a nunvber operatedby a large corporation, and 1 spentthe better part of my lunch hourstudying the literary masterpieces thatadorned the walls. During the courseof the summer I returned frequentlyto that fodder dispensary, solely forthe sake of observing the new signsthat had lieen posted, I assure you.I became so enamoured of them that1 copied a number of them on thebacks of old letters with one hand andcarried on my gastronomical activitieswith the other.Consider a few of these gems your¬self. “VV’hen your silver spoon breaksthrough the snow white mantle ofmaster-made Whipped Cream you willtingle with delight, your very soulwill purr, and like a Careless (kkI youwill float on ecstatic clouds of de¬light.” After all, that's giving whippedcream a pretty big write-ui), but manya bond clerk was bewitched by thealliteration.Again, cherry pie was advertisedthusly, “Gorgeous berries imprisonedin a rich and flaky shell—roriferouswith juices,” and peach pie supposed¬ly harbored “precious fruit withoutblemish—'bursting with juiciness.”.\nd don’t ever think they didn’t suckin plenty with them woids.But one of the most choice of alladvertisements was the one whichbore the following legend, all appro¬priately illustrated, “Our secret Artand the Process of Nature have giventhis Magnificent Ham a certainhaughty flavor, a sumptuous tender¬ness, and a lingering deliciousness.The Mildness and Beauty of thisMasterful Creation at your com¬mand.”However, all these are prosaic anddull in contrast to the chef-d’oeuvre,the masterpiece of literary master¬pieces. It was headed “SweetnessIn It’s Supreme Form!” and continu¬ed thusly, “Arizona Cactus JumboCantaloupe — (Large Half) — 25cDaintly luscious morsels of sacchari-ferous meat. Enclosed in a firm in¬flexible shell, which has been fullymatured into a pleasing and delicious‘sweet meat’ by the long,sumiy daysand cool dewy nights of ripening,making it a marvel product of theseason. Each one is guaranteed to beof a large size and almost burstingwith that rare tastiness and fine sweet¬ness only derived from seasoned can¬taloupes.”And that, gentlemen, may be termedan excellent example of how to man¬handle the king’s English. After Iread that I picked up the menu andbarged slowly out of the restaurantlike one stunned.Modern advertising is a gfeat rack¬et for a man with a copious supplyof adjectives, colorblindness, and -astrong stomach.

And in doing so,it should determine finally the general fitness of the Ch'apel as aplace to have such happenings; happenings, that is, that involvemusical presentation and listening.Since the Kedroff Quartet sang here last winter, the opinionsadvanced concerning the Chapel as Mandel Hall’s successor in hous¬ing the Symphony, the Kedroff, and the like, have been of rathera "thumbs down ” nature. There are none, as far as we know, whobear any greivance against the Chapel insofar as its structure andits architecture are concerned. The obejets are quite practical. Theycenter about the main theme of “I can’t hear them” or “there’ssomething wrong with the acoustics,’’ with nothing but admirationfor the surroundings as a spiritual enhancement. But the objectionshave been thriving.The Kedroff Quartet, of course, cannot, with its four voices,give much insight as to what the Symphony Orchestra, with itstwenty some instruments, will prove to be in the Chapel. And theconcert this afternoon will therefore be the first full test of theChapel as a possible locus for future concerts. It is undoubtedlylogically fitted for the role in every other way; and Mandel Hallhas long demonstrated its lackings, save for Blackfriars, Mirror, lec¬tures, and the public speaking classes. Good fortune in its hour oftrial.THE PROPHET SANS HONORRobert Frost, whom Sidney Cox calls the "ordinary man andwhom John Dollard calls the "prosperous farmer from New Hamp¬shire,” visited the University last week and gave a lecture, afterwhich he left. But yesterday, the very pleasant news emerged thathe left something behind him as well; namely, fifty dollars which,with Mrs. William Vaughn Moody, he has donated to The Forgeto be used as a poetry prize and to be known as the Frost-Moodyprize.Prizes can be, and often are, bad institutions as far as fosteringthe writing of poetry is concerned. But that is only when they limitthe applicants to poems of nine and three-tenths lines and so forth,or impose restrictions on the sort of material to be used. Mr. Frostand Mrs. Moody, very wisely, have avoided such boundaries; andthe prize, at their request, will be awarded by the editors of TheForge to the contributor to The Forge who seems most to merit it.We have been continually reminded, in regard to The Forge,of the fact that the ‘‘prophet is seldom honored in his own coun¬try.” For while The Forge has attained to a high ranking elsewhereand numbers its contributors and subscribers from most portions ofAmerica, it has bene accorded a singularly taciturn reception here¬abouts. But figures speak louder than words. And, accordingto the editors of The Forge, their new donation raises the total oftheir prizes to one hundred and seventy-five dollars.

They achieve tiiat end in threeways: first, by rendering an essential service insupplying satisfactory transportation; second, bycarrying out their ordinary civic obligations, suchas paying taxes; third, by contributing in a spe¬cial manner toward agricultural and industrialadvancement. In the latter effort they displaygood business judgment, for whatever enrichesa railroad’s territory eventually redounds to thebenefit of the railroad itself.The railroad is one of the foremost allies oflocal civic, agricultural and industrial groups inpromoting community progress. Its orgariza-tion commonly includes experts in both industryand agriculture, who travel over the railroad’sterritory seeking opportunities to improve localproducing and manufacturing conditions.Farmers are aided through group meetings,illustrated lectures, soil surveys, arrangementsfor trains of fertilizer, promotion of dairy cam¬paigns, field instruction in vegetable raising, theencouragement of poultry raising, the running ofspecial trains with educational exnibits, and soon, each railroad’s contribution being governedby the particular requirements of its territory.To aid in the advantageous location of indus¬tries, a railroad will ordinarily have on file sur¬veys of communities along its lines covering pop¬ulation, transportation lines, availability of rawmaterials, electric and water power service, rateson gas and electricity, water supply, labor andhousing conditions, taxes, resources and depositsof banks, fire protection, schools, churches, rec¬reation facilities, available sites and industries al¬ready located.Con.structive criticism and suggestions are in¬vited.L.

And as the turn¬stiles click 10,000—20,000—30,000,—40,000—S. R. O. (Standing roomonly), this little man who can’t eventhrow a baseball laughs out loud.The day is done—the sun nas set.The game has been won—the gamewas lost. The crowds are gone.Wrigley field is eerie among theshadows of a late twilight. The veryspirit of man seems to have set withthe bright r.?in.And now we are in the Cub’straining quarters. The great prophetHornsby is lying on a table, wearyand worn from a terrific battle. Themaoseur firmly massages the musclesof the high priest as he lays thereexhausted and sad. Around him liethe leaser priests on similar tables,Wilsoa, Grim, Stephenson, Root,English and Hartnett. All of themare tired. All of them prefer totake it easy, until bed time. And aswe stand and watch this gloomyscene, our very soul is lifted by thethoughts of how these men have sac¬rificed and fought for the sport theylove, we know that the crowds thatadore them should do so, and we aresure that these men will be well re¬paid for their gallant efforts.And just as the sun pops out ofsight, this serene scene is broken bya loud laugh. A huge raucous laugh¬ter that bespeaks of huge enjoymentof something extremely funny. Welook out there on the field and bythe light of a street lamp a fewhundred feet away we see WilliamWrigley pushing a loaded wheelbar¬row marked “Receipts.” And even aswe watch the Chewing Gum manstops, throws back his head andtosses another great big laugh upat the moon which seems to be ap¬preciating the deep humour.And as we sink down and ourvoice breaks into hysterical laughter,—well, maybe the prophet Hornsbyand his les.ser priests will be repaidin heaven.

The interesting thing aboutthis ball club is that five Crane Col¬lege cage captains are representedon it. The type of play used by theDeltas is almost professional.

The Swimming team has complet¬ed a season which cannot be calledbad. They did not win the confer-eence championship, but camethrough the dual meets in pretty fair.style. Now that this year’s competi¬tion is over the squad will begin in¬tensive training for the coming sea¬son of events.The team will not have with them,however, some of the mainstays ofthe squad who will be lost by grad¬uation. Captain Spence will be oneof these men to go. He has finisheda fine career as a breast stroker. Agreat loss will also be felt by the de¬parture of Szold, the captain of thewater polo outfit. He has done somemighty fine work in the free styleevents for the Maroons. Getzov, an¬other breast stroke man, will alsoleave at the end of this quarter.Coach McGillivray can, neverthe-1less, rely a good deal on the regu- jlars w'ho remain. Among these jsplashers are Oker, free style, Stev-'en.son, back, Moore, free style, and ^McMillan, free style. jThere is aLso a new supply of,material coming from the freshmen 'who are now working into prettygood shape. McMahon, breast. Gold-'berg, breast, Kirkland, dash, and |Rittenhouse, w’ater polo and back. Iare all men who look especiallypromising in their respective events. ;There are also a good many others jwho can be depended upon to show iup in readinc.ss for each part of the icompetition. IFancy Diving is the only event |that is sadly in need of material, iDuring this last season there was a jvacancy that had to be filled by aman who was not an expert in the jart, and unless some fine prospect jturns up, Mr. McGillivray will haveto start to train some willing aspir-1ants from the ground up to fill the 'position. Chicago will meet the cream of themiddle west this Saturday when hertrack team participates in the annualKansas relay meet held at the Uni¬versity of Kansas, Lawrence, Kansas.Once more the Maroon relay teams,which have raised havoc with onemile, two mile and distance medleymarks recently, in the Texas, Illinoisand Southern Methodist meets, willcontend in an assemblage of trackstars.Coach Ned Merriam will include inthe squad leaving Chicago Fridayevening, the same eight men whomade the southern trip. Root andEast will make the trip according tolatest reports. Three field men,Boesel in the hammer and discus,Weaver in the shot and hammer, andFrey in the high jump wil|( also leaveon the Saute Fe when it heads forKansas.Although Chicago is the favorite inthe distance medley, Illinois and IowaState have entered aggregations,which are expected to make the Ma¬roon cinder burners step. Putnam ofIowa, who has done a 4:22 mile, isanchor man for the Hawkeye baton-eers. Yet Chicago’s relay is practical¬ly invincible with Livingston doing the440, Williams the half mile, WexmantttT'three quarters and Letts the Mile.In the mile relay Northwestern andMissouri loom as the most formidablecontenders. Gist, Schulz, Haydonand Livingston are members of theMaroon mile relay. These boys areslated to break the record at Kansaswhich at present is 3:20. In the TexasRelays they negotiated the mile in3:18 2-10 thereby shattering the longstanding mark there. Northwesternmust be reckoned with by virtue ofhaving Rut Walters in the quartet.If Coach Merriam decides to runthe two mile relay team it will standa fine chance of placing up in front.“W'ith favoraI)le conditions,” remarkedNed, “the team is capable of doing a7:50.” A little calculation will re¬veal that there are four men wearingthe Maroon who can do the half milein less than 1 minute and 58 seconds.
