The 'optimism is due to theshowing the Maroons made againstpre-conference opponents. The Nor-gren team won three games and losttwo, but their performance in thelast game was a hundred per centbetter than their initial scrimmage^against Lake Forest.Indiana No SetupThe only fly in the ointmenthowever, is the obvious fact that In¬diana is neither Lake Forest orWesleyan, which means that the Ma¬roons are in for a busy evening.The Hoosiers have not given indica¬tions of being among the betterconference teams this season, butthey possess prowess.

The difficulty lies not somuch in the actual writing, as it lies in the selection of appropriatesubject matter. We suppose that college life is fraught with almostan infinity of questions worthy of editorial lament, but we are, afterall, not clairvoyant and having once exhausted that barren back¬ground which is our own, we must necessarily fall back onto thoseomnipresent topics of student activities.What The Daily Maroon would like to have is a number ofeditorial contributions in criticism of those angles of college life ofwhich we are profoundly ignorant. e say in criticism, andthis upon advice of Prof. James Weber Linn, who in his capacity ofcolyum conductor in the Herald and Examiner, remarked recentlythat those articles of his which were written in the spirit of criticismand prejudice were more successful than the insipid and inconse- jquential variety. The former were at least productive of a stormof protest, the latter passed into the files unheralded and unsung. 'The Daily Maroon cannot suffer such ignominy. iWe seek an editorial board—a board which we understandwe are at present its spurious chairman. Today we have the first ,of the converts. If you have objections, prejudices, or biases we iinvite you to air your grievances herewith”, always provided thatthey be editorially substantial and consistent with our glorifiedpolicies (see above).SUN SHINES ETERNALLYDuring and following the last heavy snow storm the condition |of Chicago streets was deplorable. For a city which advertises its jcivic pride far and wide and a city which is the second largest in Jthe country, the icy rutted boulevards and hub scraping side streets ipresented a condition strangely reminiscent of the days of Father IDearborn. }This state of affairs was especially notable in the vicinity of the 'University. Cars were blocked two and three deep at corners, andalong Fifty Seventh Street one was continually having to stop andassist some motorist out of a rut. Students were delayed in gettingto important examinations, for no appreciable progress could bemade through the drifts. And yet, when they picked up th'e citypaper they were informed that outside of the loop the sun wasall the help that could be relied upon to clear the roads. The sun!Eskimos can rely on the sun, and they have to pay no taxes.It is true that last month’s snowfall was unusually heavy, butas an excuse that should fall rather flat for there are several cities,notably in Canada where open streets are kept during much severerwinters. The remedy is after all very simple. If the city fatherswould but be a bit more careful of their reckless expenditures inbuying themselves cars, etc., and provided funds to equip all citytrucks with plows so that the moment any sign of a heavy fall wasapparent the streets could be kept clear during the time of the fall.It is true that the city should be severely censured for its ineffi¬ciency, but at the same time the University should be conunendedfor their splendid work in keeping the walks cleared so that campustraffic continued at nearly normal rate. Graduates Drink atFirst Winter Social—But It’s Only Tea!Having sworn off drink with theadvent of the New Year, the Grad¬uate students are going to “Sip” teahereafter. .And the first of the teas 'for all graduates will be held this Sun¬day afternoon from 4 until 6 in the ;Graduate club house,, as announced by iHarold Brooks Steen, [(resident of theGraduate Council.Ruth Garrick.

B.Tomorrow night Maroon follow¬ers will get the low-down on thetrue strength of the Chicago five.Coach Norgren used most of thepre-season games in trying to getthe best working combination andthe result of his investigation willbe on the floor pitted against thebest that Coach Ward Lambert hasto offer. The five practice gamc’.sin which the Maroons participatedsaw a constant shifting of the lineupin an attempt to find the most cap¬able center. Bunge was tried at thetip-off post and proved to be ratherslow. Next Boesel was used at the Ijump but his passing was inaccurate !and his floor w'ork erratic. jCaptain Changnon, whose shoot- jing skill is relied upon for the Ma- |roon offensive was transferred tocenter and Stephenson the diminu¬tive but shifty player took Chang-non's place at forward. This wijemove saw a remarkable improve¬ment in the showing of the teamas witnessed in the Carleton game.As for the guard positions, the Ma¬roon mentor is not greatly concern¬ed, for he has an abundance of goodmaterial. Fi.sh showed his poten¬tialities in the Ohio Wesleyan gameand Ashley a fleet and agile drib- jbier and an uncanny passer was sentinto the Carleton game to tighten ,the defense and his performance Iwas a pleasant sight to the specta- |tors at the game. He isn’t a goal ^making arti.st but the man ha guards jfinds it mighty hard to get free. 'The city newspaper reporters pre¬dict a successful sea.son for the Ma- jroon five.

Marshall Fish hasalso demonstrated on occasions thathe knows where the basket is. Cap¬tain Changnon is more dependableon close in shots. Little Paul Steph¬enson is another deadly, under thebasket man. The chief worry con¬fronting Coach Norgren is the pos¬sibility that some of these men maycontract stage fright, which is notunusual.Branch McCracken, captain ofthe visiting team, has been a head¬liner in conference baskebtall fortwo years. McCracken will have afour inch height advantage overCaptain Changnon. McCracken is abrilliant player, and with his heighthas made himself w’ell nigh invalu¬able to the Indiana cause. Chicagowill be out to stop McCracken, ifpossible.Strickland is another Indiana manwho will have to be closely watched.The others are not well known butno doubt are capable men.Track enthusiasts may find some¬thing to cheer about when the sea¬son gets under way in the nearfuture, for the Maroon team showssigns of becoming a threat in BigNine circles. In the 50 yard dash,Captain Norm Root looms as theman to contest supremacy in tliisevent with perhaps the best sprinterin the Conference today, EddieTolan of Michigan. If you havewatched him work out. you can’thelp but notice that his starts aretimed perfectly, and his getawaysmake other sprinters seem slow.Harold Hayaon competes for hisla.st year in track and he faces thetask of defending his Conferencehigh hurdling title. Admittedly thetimber topping talent in the BigNine will be exceptionally good, butfrom the way Hal has been perform¬ing in the greyhound event, he bidsfair to cause Messrs. Sentman andRoekaway a bit of grief. Anotherman. Dale Letts, who as a soph¬omore placed in the Conference milemay look back on the year 1930 asa banner one in his athletic career.A conservative forecast is that hewill genotiate his lavorite distancem under 4:23 this season. He hasrecovered from a minor injury whichbothered him about Christmas butnow he is prepared to take on allcomers.CLASSIFIED ADSFOR SALE—Underwood StandardTypewriter, $25.

CharlieChaplin hates organized charitybecause he was once in a badlyrun orphans’ home, and D.

In "Street Scene” the logicis inevitable and sentimentality isconspicuous by its absence.• # «AM I saying that "Street Scene”« is finer than “Lear,” finerthan ‘Les Miserables”? Well,yes, I am, in this respeci of im¬ pending horror. "Street Scene”has almost no poetry, to be sure,or perhaps I mean beauty. Butwho nowadays wants beauty, inthe theater?
