AsSaturday will be the inauguration ofthe thirty-eighth season the OldMan has spent as mentor of the Ma¬roons, his many friends are rootingfor his teams to make at least agood showing.Beloit StrongBeloit is a hustling outfit whichmakes its biggest foes extend themselves to win. Little is known con¬cerning their present strength savothat they defeated Northwestern col¬lege of Watertown, 25 to 0, on a slip¬pery field la.st Saturday. What theBeloit line-up is it has not been pos¬sible to learn officially, but last weekthey used Carney and Stripe, atends; Krick and Kinnel, at tackles;Shedd and Fessler, at guards; Ger-mann, at center; Baker, at quarter;Williams and Bottino, at halves, andWessenbrink at full. Most of theseplayers are lettermen from last sea¬son.

Adoption id a plan f(>r .'<nper':'ised, regulated riisiting.THE COUNCIL REBORNAt the general campus election scheduled for Friday, October1 I, the new plan of student government enacted by the Undergrad¬uate Council late last spring will receive its first trial. It will be ofinterest to note whether the campus is in general ready to receivesuch a drastic and progressive move as that of the abolition of allclass officers and formal class organization—exception being madein the case of the senior class, where tradition and expediency urgedthe retention of the nominal figure head.TTie Daily Maroon feels that the logic behind the theory issound; it hopes that in practice its soundness may be enthusiasticallydemonstrated by a large popular vote at the polls Friday. Cer¬tain it is that class organization has outlived its usefulnes at the Uni-versiy of Chicago, and its persistance in vestigial form has merelyimpeded the intelligent, co-operative direction of student affairs,“ which ostensibly is the Council’s raison d’etre. To function efficient¬ly any class organization depends solely upon a distinct class con¬sciousness. Except in the case of entering freshmen, who share inthe union of mutual green-ness, and of the graduating seniors, whohave in common a regretful farewell, classes as such are devoid ofany group sentiment. Synthetic attempts to inject some semblancesof class feeling have repeatedly failed, for example the freshman-sophomore lawn party and the freshman-sophomore pushball con¬test Two factors in our student life have combined to ma’se thisstate of affairs inevitable; the first is the presence of a number ofday students who have little or no interest in any of the extra-curri¬cular phases of college life, and the second and more importantreason is the use of the quarter system which produces so manyscholastic hybrids that even the recorder's office is puzzled at theirclassifiication.It was in frank acknowledgment of these conditions that classofficers hemselves, sitting as members on last year’s council, votedto dipense with class organization. The present system of govern¬ment is the result. Having a healthy respect for the virulence ofcampus reactionaries as well as a progressive outlook, the framersof .he constitution have devised wh'at is in essence a compromise.Presidents of the freshman and senior classes are named as actualexecutives; other members-at-large on the council are elected ona class basis but do not hold office as such.The Undergraduate Council has in the last year made note¬worthy attempts to clothe its barren frame with some show of jreal meaning and accomplishment. Last year it managed the first jsuccessful Washington Prom—speaking at least from a financialviewpoint—that has been staged in a number of years In bring¬ing the Kedoff Quartet to campus the council performed a real serv¬ice to the campus as well as filled its own hollow coffers. Sincethen the council may point to its support of the Cap and Gown, itspublication of the Freshman activities pamphlet, and its own re¬birth as something in the line of achievement. But before all ofthese accomplishments The Daily Maroon must credit the councilwith the establishment of the Board of Publications, which the Ma¬roon fought tooth and nail to nullify less than two years ago. How¬ever, lest newcomers acquire the impression that TTie Daily Ma¬roon has even been in editorial error we hasten to explain that inthat memorable fight this journal did effectually squelch the coun¬cil’s original plan to obtain control of campus publications—com¬promising, though, on the creation of the Board o Publications,which has proved to be an actual asset to campus journalism.To the old timers who remember the mud slinging of thatfamous event which crowded its way into downtown newspapers,it may seem a little odd that the lion and the lamb should lie downtogether. But there are reasons and reasons; not least among whichis the final realization that the Undergraduate Council is honestlyattempting to promote student enterprise foster th^t fabulous en¬tity, college spirit. In its efforts, particularly its present experimentof re-organization, the Council deserves the wholehearted supportof the student body.

These menwill bear the burden of checking thehidden-ball spinner offense whichLake Forest is employing this fail.Of course Coach Stagg may start thesame men in both games, which isnot improbable, for he has only fif¬teen or sixteen first-class candidates.The varsity spent yesterday after¬noon practicing pass plays, offensive¬ly and defensively, while the menwho did not get into yesterday’sscrimmage clashed Avith the fresh¬men.

The volumesdate back to the season of 1902 and02. From time to time this depart¬ment of the Maroon will endeavor topresent in these columns some choicebits for your pleasure from the issuesof twenty-six years ago. Here is theway the 1902 reporters summarizedthe situation:Oct. 3. 1902—KNOX GAME CRITICAL“Tomorrow afternoon at 3:30 onMarshall Field we play our first im¬portant game. It will be the first gamewith college color and the first Inwhich there is any doubt of our win¬ning. We should win, but tbe scrappyKnox men will give us a hard game.Last night Director Stagg received atelegram asking him to reserve a spe¬cial section for the Knox‘ rooters.They expect to bring a large number,several hundred rooters with them.This looks as if they expect to winor at least make a strong showing.They will be located in the westbleachers.“We must not be outdone in therooting, with the game on our homegrounds. Chicago rooters will gatherin the east bleachers. The rooting willbe ably led by .Mian Burns, the en¬thusiastic divinity student, who hasbeen our cheermaster for the last fewyears. Let us gather together underhis leadership and help the team win.This is the first opportunity this yearto use our voices for our Alma Mater.Every one wear plenty of color andmake the east bleachers one mass ofmaroon! Beginning Monday let uspractice rooting on the campus, at the10:30 hour, and show the new studentswhat Chicagt) spirit is, and give theman opportunity to learn the yell.“The players feel that with theKnox game out of the way thechances for a successful se’ason will beexcellent. But if we should have anymishap tomorrow it would seriouslyaffect our prospects.“At two o’clock, before the Knoxgame, the scrubs will play the SouthDivision High School team. Thescrubs will be divided into two teams,each to play one half.”Here’s another good bit:GYM NEARING COMPLETIONElegant New Building to be OpenedFebruary First—Arrival of NewMaterial Causes Work tobe Rushed“The Bartlett gymnasium will prob¬ably be ready by Feb. 1, 1903.’’ Thiswas the statement made today in theoffice of the architect of our $250,(K)()fiym to be located on Marshall Field.The massive walls completed to thesecond floor and the network of greatsteel girders within give little evidencethat the enormous work can be ac-com|)lished by that date. A delay inthe steel shipments caused a suspen¬sion of o|)erations during the summermonths. With the supply at handgangs of men are rushing the arrange¬ments of the interior framework. Fromthe air of bustle and hurry about thecontractor’s and architect’s officesthere seems reason to believe that theathlete’s new home will be ready bythe middle of the winter quarter.’’ KEEN TDK YEARMany Strong TeamsBe In BigTen ToThe relative strengths of the BigTen swimming teams will be aboutthe same as last year. .Ml of the teamshave lost valuable members, but thereare plenty of other men to fill thevacancies. Northwestern should beparticularly strong. They lost Col-bath, who with (iroh of Illinois foughtfor Big I'en diving honors. .\s (irohhas also graduated, there is opportun¬ity for other divers. I’eterson ofNorthwestern, who broke the Big Ten200-yard breast-stroke record lastyear, is back to help his team.Little and Bender, both of Iowa,’will bolster the performances of theirteam. Little this year is out for the.SO, KM) and the 440 yard swims.Chicago Has VetsChicago’s team will be about thesame as last year. (ietzofT, last year'sdiving star, and breast stroke swim¬mer, graduated, but all of the ptherimportant members of the team willbe back in force. Chicago’s water poloteam will be much stronger than thatof last year and there are enough menout for places to provide for twoteams. Szold, Chicago’s former polocaptain, will be out for the 440 andwill be on the relay.mini StrongIllinois will have an exceptionallystrong team. Holbrook and Schroder,who took fourth in the conferencebreast, will be back at their old posi¬tions.There will be a very tight race Inthe back-stroke this year, as Stephen¬son of Chicago, Marsh of Minnesotaand Hindi of Northwestern, are allexperts in the event.Little is known oT Wisconsin andMichigan teams, as yet, but as of yorethey will projiably have a considerablearray of talent.Judging from available material, allof the Big Ten schools will have ex¬cellent swimming teams, and therewill be very keen competition in allthe meets.AMERICAN LUNCHROOMGet Acquainted With OurHome Cooking5558 Ellu AvenueI Y.

And the reason that thiscolumn is today devoted to him is thefact that although the football sea¬son has not yet begun, Kipke hasalready jiroven himself to be a suc¬cess at the job of coaching. Not onlyhas he already succeeded but at theend of this season, no matter whathis team will have done, Harry willbe having people say that at lastthings are again blooming for theMaize and Blue (Michigan’s colors).Instead of beginning his initial sea¬son at Ann .Arbor by putting on a“Lindbergh Mask” and dramaticallywhispering, “I will do my best,”Kipke walked out on the gridironthe first day of praetice, looked athis squad for a few moments andthen scurried to a dark corner ofthe gymnasium basement. In a fewminutes he returned with the fam¬ous black paint pot and proceeded tosmear the dark contents all over theStadium, gymnasium, goalposts, andpractice field. After which Kipkeblackened every bit of football equip¬ment from cleats to headgears, andhad each of the aspiring candidatestake a coaltar shower. The next af¬ternoon promptly at three o’clock,'this Northern army of cotton pick¬ers began to run up and down thefield, scoring touchdowns in the solidhope that practice makes perfect. Inthe midst of these maneuvers, Kipkeopened the gates of the Stadium andin a*lusty voice cried to the assem- 'bled newspapermen, “Black ().\4.*n- jDark Horses.”•And now the young mentor is sit¬ting in a prettier place than thewould be if he was holding a royalflush with every hand standing pat.The erstwhile wily journalists havebeen bowled over by all this blackpaint, with the result that Michiganis the “dark horse” of the Confer- ience.

THURSDAY, OCTOBER 3, 1929 Page FiveTliree Rhapsodies in RetrospectBy Arnold SchlachetThey say that if you scratch apessimist, you find a disappointedoptimist underneath. Perhaps that’sso. For if you scratch an upper¬classman of a certain sort, you’rebound to discover what was once aperfectly g^ood frosh, full of newand really vital ideas, and stuffed tohis beautiful green gills with energyand ambition. And you won’t drawmuch blood in the scratching. Yourman has let himself become some¬what anaemic in the last few years.His eyes and his brain are getting alittle bleary . . .Now why, you ask, has he slippedso? He goes abopt with what hethinks is an air of sophisticated dis¬illusionment while so-and-So, hisfellow-classmate, is editor of some¬thing, and Tom here is captain ofthis, and Dick president of that—his chance swere equal with theirs,what has he done with them? Hemay say as an excuse that oppor¬tunity didn’t knock for him, not eventhe proverbial once. Once! Theknuckles of opportunity never getsore! You get deaf first. The trou¬ble with this man is that he haslost something, and that something,is the poetic way of looking atthings.Here’s the crux (and a bromidicone): it’s all in the attitude. Youcome to college with hopes, desires,aspirations. • The novelty of thingswarm you with amazement. And I’mnot being sentimental when I saythat something glorious really takeshold of you. Perhaps it’s the AlmaMater coming across to you underthe stars at ten o’clock. Perhaps it’scompanionship. Perhaps the sight ofthe chapel tower on a gray day . . .or any rate, you know that this isyour hour, with all its wonder andloveliness, and—there’s your atti¬tude! You have what our hypo¬thetical uppercla.ssman lost, the po¬etic amazement with all things. Hehas failed, in his short years at col¬lege, to keep himself stimulated withthe world about him.Books alone can keep no one stim¬ulated for any length of time. Wecome here to study, certainly; butoutside of that, to attain a new andcompleter perspective; to makefriends; to discover ourselves. Wenever find ourselves entirely in twocovers and some hundred pages ofprint. That is what our bleary-eyed senior thought, not realizingthat you can take over intellectualitywithout having dusty intellectualityovertake you. His friends the editor iand the captain and the presidentnever experienced that cessation oiinterest, the mental lassitude (somecall it cynicism), that fell upon himlike a shower of soot. I’m not Bab-bitt sermonising to Rotarians, butill’s participation .participation inthe vital, youthful, poetic things,that will keep your mind quick andawake.For this is a young school, and itis meant for young minds, whateverage the body. .And it furnishes out¬lets for young energy. Athletics, if |you are so inclined. Or the publica- 'tions—the .Maroon; the Cap and.Gown; the Forge, for the poet, and ‘the Phoenix for the humorist. In |art, or music, or religious activity, |there is a demand for your especial iideas and for your ability. You don’tget as much out of these things as ,you put in. You get more. Enerva- ition will never come to you in allyour years at college, be they as |multitudinous as the sands. And in !addition, the young things, the poet¬ic, romantic things you do here have !theri “reminiscence value’’; for theywill be worth recalling ten, or |twenty,or fifty years pa.st their en- !actnient. After all, that is the real |value of what we do.It’s an old tune, I know, and the jharr is rather rusty now. But you’ll |find it so. By John T. BobbittNobody can give advice to Fresh¬men about the University. Most ofthem know what they want beforethey get here. And whatever it isthat they expect of the place it iscertain that they aren’t going to getit.It is impossible for anyone to telianyone else about the University,largely because the University it¬self doesn’t know what it is. It isa vast place of terribly new build¬ings and traditionless institutions. Itis made up of hundreds of groupsof people pulling a hundred differentways and few of them' know whatifs all about. Somebody is trying tomake this university one of thegreatest centers of culture and learn¬ing in the world, but if you askyour fraternity brother or the fellowacross the hall about it he won’tgive a rip so long as he is gettingwhat he wants. Somebody endowsan art school or builds a chapel;somebody furnishes money for re¬search in diseases or for a profes¬sorship in meat packing; a studentin Egypt digs up some importantbones or a professor over in Ryer-son makes a contribution to physics.The graduate students pull strings,and slave to get easy Ph. D’s.; theundergraduates fake exams, playbridge, join fraternities, get drunk,play politics, and occasionally get ed¬ucated. The whole thing is too bigfor anybody to understand.Freshmen probably already realizethat the University isn’t exactly acountry club, and they will soonlearn that life at the University hasaltout as much variety of color as thefacade of the .Art Institute. ThePlace is too big and raw to expectanything different. Nothing hasfound ijself, it is an overnight garb¬ling of all previous school traditions.Bohunks from the west side rub el¬bows with club girls from the SouthShore.College students begin with theidea of having a good time. Someexpect to get an education and otherswant it pumped in. Some have a bliss¬ful four year loaf and a great manymake it pretty hard work. But whatdo people come to the university foranyway! Partly to have a good time,partly out of habit, because it is be¬ing done. Hut there is somethingmore. It isn’t the technical trainingfor the large majority that intend tol)e business men, bond salesmen, bankclerks or pri . ate secretaries. Nordo these same people expect to spendtheir lunch hours in the marts oftrade discu.ssing Balzac, or the Quan¬tum theory.If a fellow gets nothing else outof a University, he ought to have afour year chance to chew on ideas..After graduation he’ll spend thenext hundred yeasr doing things hedoesn’t want to do or kidding him¬self into liking what he’s got to do.But for four years he can let hisimagination out at least a little bit,and dream the things he wants todream. He ought to meet a few peo¬ple he will be glad to have known,and read about a couple of guyswho had great ideas before he did.He ought to try to find out whatit’s all about. And just before hegraduates, he ought to take the wholebusiness out about three miles due By Julian J. JacksonMelancholia has come to some;elation to others; and blank indiffer¬ence to still others. The first groupis going about with a wash-boardbrow, downcast eyebrow, and loweredjaw, aptly recalling and sometimesreciting Hamlet’s overdone soliloquy.The next mentioned has turned so¬cial, blatantly singing in bold re¬frain the familiar ditty which goes,“Back To the Midway.” And the lastcategory continues to register blankindifference. College days again arewith us!!The bookstore is already attractingcampus currency: the erudites haveat this early date begun to browseabout the counters; for the last threedays the ticking of the typewritersin the Maroon office has been dis¬turbing the girls of Beecher and alsotheir sisters in Foster when the windblows due East. Before long we ex¬pect to hear that the Coffee Shop hasserved its first badly brewed cup ofI coffee of the current season, to sayi nothing of its Yankee tea; for noth¬ing can be said of it—at least good.We have been crowded onto the side¬walks by the inevitable roadster;their three-tone scale horns havestrained our meatus, external and in¬ternal. During the week we havebeen meekly stormed by Freshmenlooking for Mandel although headedfor Cobb. The workmen are rushingabout in their last minutes to makethe new chemistry building ready forpollution. We have already foundout the snap courses to be offeredthis quarter, and have been stayingup nights trying to make their hoursdove-tail with our extra-curricularpleasures—off campus. We cland¬estinely peeked through the gate tosee the football team vigorouslymanhandling each other, and therewas Stagg pensively directing theworks just as he did thirty-eightyears ago—only, I imagine, he wasless pensive then. The Senior Don j.Tuans have been reported scouting iabout the quadrangle, looking in atMandel, and following tourist groups jfor a knock-out Freshman find.Pledge buttons have sprouted over¬night in every third Freshman’s but- ,ton hole; they almost know the rah- ,rah handshake. jYes.

He’ll never need it again.In .America, youth lasts exactlyfour years. .At the University re¬straints and inhibitions are at lowebb. A fellow challenges everythingin life from God to prohibition with¬out bothering about consequences. Itis a time for big ideas that almostcome true. If a fellow can get thisout of four years he is a great man.If he keeps on doing it after hegraduates he is insane.GARRICKPOPULAR MATS. WED. & SAT.CHARLES HOPKINS, presentsA. A.

Michelson, head of thePhysics department at the Univer- |sity, has turned attention to one of ithe greatest physicists of all times, jAs the man who has most accurately {measuieu the speed of light, and the |.American to receive the Nobel |prize in science, his name has been jranked by distinguished scientific jsocieties with that of Sir Isaac New- Iton, first formulator of the laws of |gravitation, and Albert Einstein, au- |thor of the famous laws of relativ- jity. IBuilds Own Apparatus IMichelson was not particularly in- iterested in science when, two yearsafter his graduation from Annapolis,he was appointed instructor in phys¬ ics at the Na al Academy. At thattime appropriations for materialswere low so he spent ten dollars ofhis own money to construct an ap¬paratus to measure the speed of lightin a class room demonstration. Tohis great surprise he was able tomake the measurement with greateraccuracy than had ever before beenachieved.At one time Michelson explainedhis frequent repetition of the speedof light experiment by telling an in¬quiring colleague “I do it becauseit is so much fun.”“Quite apart from direct benefitsto humanity, it seems to me thatscientific research should be regard¬ed as a painter regards his art, a poethis poems, a composer his music. It would be quite unfair to ask of thesean apology for their efforts, and thekind of benefit which I should mostappreciate from research in pure sci¬ence is much more allied to suchnon-material results—results whichhelp to increase the pleasure of usall to matter-of-fact existence, andwhich help to teach man his truerelation to his surroundings,—^hisplace in Nature.”Professor Michelson has unusuallyvaried interests, and to all these hecarries the same spirit of excellenceand ability that distinguishes hisscientific work. He is the equal ofany of his faculty colleagues at bil¬liards, chess, or bridge, and even at7,5 is better than an average tennisplayer. He plays a violin with ex¬ceptional skill, and is also an artistof merit. An exhibition of hissketches and water colors was heldlast winter at the University.-ILSTUDENT SUPPLIESTypewritersAll Makes — Standard and PortableFor Sale or For RentAsk for Our Easy Payment PlanTYPEWRITERS REPAIREDGym SuppliesShirts, Trunks, Socks and ShoesStationeryBrief Cases, Fountain Pens, Slickers, DeskBlotters, Laundry Cases, Reading LampsBooksText Books — College Law and MedicalSecond HandThe Latest New Books—Fiction andnon-FictionWoodworth’s Book StoreOPEN 8 A.
