Adoption of a plan for supervised, regulated rushing.A KEY PLAN IN A KEY INSTITUTIONThe logical system through which such a modification might berealized is the comprehensive examination plan so often suggestedbut never attempted. It was just an ideal that had been toyed withfor several scholastic generations.During the incumbency of Max Mason steps were actuallytaken to make the adjustment preparatory to this plan. The presi¬dent's resignation left the idea dormant until the inauguration ofMr. Hutchins.TTe course is being adopted steadily by other major univer¬sities. Certainly the inaugural ideal of establishing the Universityas a key institution must include such a reorganization.The system provides for comprehensive examinations given,first, at the end of the junior college period. The student may com¬plete this period of incubation at any time he feels competent totake the examination. He enters the senior college, qualified by in¬dividual achievement. Then he chooses one of two courses opento him. He may elect to finish his studies through a regulated spe¬cialized sequence and giaduate at the completion of the requirednumber of majors. He receives the ordinary degree. Or he maydecide to do honors work in the department, supplemented, ofcourse by background courses. He may decide to finish at any timethat he feels qualified to take the final honors examination. Hefinishes on the basis of work.This would lead to the abolition of such meaningless addendaas grades and compulsory class attendance. What it might lead to,along with the more intelligent system of study, is a closer rapportbetween instructor and student which both have felt lacking.We forsee only one difficulty to this system, one that mighteasily be overcome through psychological reorientation. It mightseem incongruous that a student by mere dint of grinding and ex¬haustive preparation should finish a college course and obtain col¬lege credit for perhaps two years’ work. But then such personsmay have the capacity to absorb experience more fully. Time meansnothing. And others will doubtless remain at school much longer.If only for the elimination of the promiscuouf) graduation of acolony of sub-intellectuals, this system would ser^'e its purpose.

Thebiggest shock came when the MaroonTrack Team which was slated to winin the Quadrangular pulled throughor shall we say, staggered in witha measly fourth.Coach Norgren’s down troddenbasketeers displaying a miserable of¬fensive against Indiana took theshort end of the 28 to 16 score.The Maroon defense was a brightspot in the play and at the half Chi¬cago trailed by four points, the scorebeing 14 to 10. Captain McCrackenfattened his individual scoring rec¬ord when the Maroon five started tosleep in the second period and letthe Hoosier center take a couple ofeasy shots. Stephenson did well inscoring five gift throws and one fieldgoal.The Maroon tankmen recordedtheir first conference victory by tak¬ing Purdue to the tune of 46 to 29.In addition the water polo team ofCoach McGillivray’s swamped theBoilermakers by the count of 11 to0. Coach Hoffer’s ambitious gymteam started the ball rolling towarda conference championship when itdefeated Ohio State 1243 to 1107.Captain Menzies showed his allaround ability by taking four first jplaces and one second. The secondwas in the rings in which the bril¬liant sophomore and teammate Olsonled the way.The Maroon fericing team underCoach Merrill took the week endmeet from Ohio State. The Chicago jfoilers literally swamped the Buck¬eye representatives, taking sixteen |out of the seventeen matches. The jmen who participated for Chicago jwere Walsh, Friedman, Wallace,! Bickley, Goldberg, Sacerdoite, andVan Derhoef.In the Track meet Coach Mer-riam’s men just weren’t right. Itmay seem to be an easy way to getout of explaining the reason for theirpoor showing but when stellar per¬formers such as Root, East and Hay-don fail to qualify in their respec¬tive events, what more can be said.The two mile relay composed ofSchulz, Teitelman, Lettes and Brain-ard was easily the class of the meetand yet they took the dust of North¬western. Buck Weaver, who hasbeen doing 47 feet consistentlycould barely heave the ball 42 feetagainst Behr of Wisconsin. The re¬sult was Wisconsin first, Northwes¬tern, second, Ohio State third, andChicago fourth.The Maroon mermen looked pret¬ty good against the swimmers fromPurdue. They took the 160 yardrelay, the 220 breast, 150 backstroke, and 300 yard medley. Al¬though the first places were dividedbetween the two schools Chicago hadthe advantage becau.se of herstrength in the places.Ping Pong Under Way jAs the Ping Pong tournamentgains momentum, the matches havebeen more and more fiercely con¬tested. One of the outstanding par¬ticipants, Joseph E. West, erstwhile!champion of Camp Wooster and the ^pride of Pi Lambda Phi, was elim- jinated today by the demon D. U. jartist. Robert Purcell.W«8t fought a plucky, even bril-iliant game, countering ferocious |back-hands and wicked serves with'his famous phantom cut, but in theend, though in the shadow of vic-|tory, he went down to defeat. This|was in all probability the most ex-'citing game of the day. i Beginning and intermediate sec¬tions of women’s basketball will com¬pete in inter-hour tournaments be¬ginning at 3:45 on March 4 and 6.The finals of both tournaments willbe played off on Basketball Day,March 11.The intermediate tournamentscheduled for March 4 at 3:45 willstart with games between the 10o’clock Reds and the 9 o’clock Blues,the 3:15 Tippers and the 1:30 Reds,the 10 o’clock Blues and the 3:15Bad Weathers, and the Red Devilsand Chameleons of the 9 and 10o’clock sections respectively.

M. INTRAMURAL BASKETBALL TOURNEYENTERS HNAL ROUND; LAST YEAR’SHNAUST HAYE CHANCE FOR TITLESPLASHKCoach Percy McGillivrayThis U the second of a seriesof articles on the swimmingteam. The next will appear inan early issue.To begin with, Wendell Stephen¬son, captain of the varsity swim¬ming team never said that intercol¬legiate competition was a “drudge”—and this despite the popular flurrythat the alleged statement causedon campus. The correction was amisquotation made in an interview.What he really said was, “Intercol¬legiate competition distorts the pur¬pose of athletics to a definite goalthe victors laurels, rather than pro¬viding a continuous pleasure in thesport for the sport’s sake. The funI get out of swimming,’ he said, “isthe end, and whether I win or losedoes not matter.” When I go intoa meet I fight my hardest, but I de¬rive no more thrill from defeatingan opponent in a meet than I dowhen I beat my old time when swim- jming against myself. While this isnot perhaps as harsh as the originalvery journalistic version of whatwas said, it is still an extraorinarystatement coming from the pilot ofthe Varsity team, but it is charac¬teristic of the man.Stephenson entered the Universityfrom Shenley High School in Pitts¬burgh, where he was interscholasticbackstroke champion of WesternPennsylvania. His prep-school ca¬reer was an eventful one. He was anogicer in the Saudent Council, Pres¬ident of the Senior Class, and amember of the dramatics group.

William Tilden,Frank Hunter and Johnny Doegwere placed higher than Lott.Lott and Doeg were ranked firstin the national doubles. Lott hasbeen placed in the first ten nowfor several years and in recentyears has ranked among the firstfive players. Competition will be keep withouta doubt, as six of the seven leaguewinners came through the seasonwithout a loss.

He started out as a Fresh¬man, winning his numerals. In thefirst year in the “Big Splash,” he'won a fourth in the conference back-stroke, and was a member of themedley relay team which placed 3rdiin the championship meet of 1928.When a Junior, he won his major“C”, after having been a member of [the all-conference water-polo teamof 1929 and having showed himselfin a diversity of ways to be a most:valuable asset to the team. It wasduring 1929 that he was unanimously elected captain.He won first place in five out offive dual meets, in the 150 yard jbackstroke, his specialty. So far, |he has received one defeat out of ^11 starts in dual meets. !

This, Dean Boucher believes,can best be w’orked out through theuse of an examining board, such asused at Harvard. The comprehen-sives might be a sequence of exams,involving several types. Two typesare in use at present, the so-called“true and false” examinations andthe essay type. Dean Boucher sug¬gested a third type, namely an indi¬vidual research problem.Under a system where the com¬prehensive system was fully workedout, the transition from Junior toSenior college would depend uponthe student’s ability to pass the ex¬amination. This would mean that heremain in the Junior college until hehad met the requirements.THROW UGHT ONPROM HISTORY(Continued from page 1) jserious detriment to parties had been |by the presence of President and;the rumor that the faculty was ad-jverse to dancing, a thory disproved iMrs. Harper, and of Deans Frank jAbbott, Thomas Chamberlin, HarryPratt Judson, William D.
