Adoption of a plan for supervised, regulated rushing.METAMORPHOSISThe past year has marked a phase of college democracy un¬surpassed in extent and variety. Liberalism in educational views,freedom in the formulation of academic theories and innovationsin outlook and viewpoints have filled the pages of student papersand afforded the topic of discussion for every possible kind of uni-governing body. Somebody or something started the fireand its impetuous spread demanded conformity.The craze has not escaped us. Almost' every morning withoutfail our eyes have been confronted with headlines beginning Mr.—advocates—as a remedy. The subjects of discussion and the re*,lief measures included under that topic have made the words classi¬cal. The headline has been memorized by every editor as the in¬evitable earmark of the story that inevitably appears.Last fall the hopes ran high. A new president was approach¬ing the eve of his inauguration. Anything was exected to happenand because there is no law against expecting anything, advocationsand remedies were propounded covering every inch of^ the quad¬rangles. The athletic department needed reforming—what can auniversity claim in the way of respect if the football team is medio¬cre? The Freshman class got its share of the golden era to come—the foolishness was hypothetically done away with and the newmembers were subjected to treatment befitting their rank.At last the long expected event happened. The new presidentwas duly installed and duly proposed a system of education, which,even though it was scarcely understood or weighed by one out ofevery three students, was heartily recommended by them as a revel¬ation in educational progress. In fact the applause was so loudthat when the new president, confronted by a host of other moreimminent duties, did not and could not immediately set about re¬vamping the present system, an admirable cause was immediatelyfound for more criticism and remedying.Not to be outdone by the students, the administration took itsturn at remoulding closer to the heart’s desire. Hell-week and rush¬ing were metamorphosed in every leading college and university;student organizations were tendered a polite warning that a recast¬ing of their antiquated systems was highly desirable; the grip onstudent affairs tightened. This time the administration predicted anew lease on life.The circle narrowed. The field had its limitations after all.What had been criticized and remedied covered such extensive ter¬ritory that very little new ground was untouched. English courses,the honor system, the grading system, the humor magazines, basket¬ball teams and some slight deviations in policies formerly outlinedwere next disposed of. In the hope of covering th’e point adequatelyschool turned to school and cross-referenced until the maze is un-escapable.No doubt the motive underlying the whole situation has itsmerits. In the progress of education and the continuance of a scholas¬tic policy in any way commensurable to the current status of affairs,changes must constantly be made and systems, worthwhile in theirday, must be revamped to accommodate new conditions. Tlierelegation of a whole formula into the obsolete is even advisable attimes when it has been preserved only until an opportunity forwholesale change is deemed advisable. But the headlong practiceof abolitions and remedies has proved itself irrational and absolutely detrimental, because the remedieshave been found to work proportion¬ately so much slower than the aboli¬tions.• Perhaps in defense the criticsmaintain that a release from con¬formity and habitual ruts is beingacquired and advocated. That asoriginal method of doing leads tothe most practical results. Perhaps.But in carrying out tnls premisethey have failed to be original andhave for the greater part merely ad¬vocated and suggested what theyeasily found within their grasp inother schools. The onpginalliy hasscarcely passed the bounds of aca¬demic plagiarism.Doubtless the editors’ stereotypedheadline will be discarded beforelong. As we remarked before, themovement has its limitations.—E. A.G.Official NoticesThursday, February 20Radio lecture: “American Litera¬ture since 1890.’’ Professor PercyH.

It has occurredto the old master mind, that theseshows, coming as they do at thistime of year, represent a sort ofreport of the fiscal year at Holly¬wood. Look back and try and re¬member The Hollywood Revue,Golddiggers of Broadway, and theother large scale productions. Theproducers have thus found employ¬ment for everyone on the lot. TheShow of Shows is a Hollywooa pro¬ducer’s idea of a bonus tor tho pub¬lic. Seventy-seven stars and forall the difference it makes theremight be an equal number of danc¬ing elephants. So they took the sev¬enty-seven stars and threw them into ;a big pot and the producers gatheredaround and murmured weird incan¬tations and out jumped FranK Fay;and Beatrice Lillie. And neither oneis funny. They lost flavor in the ;canning.And then the producers saw Porgyand all the orchestrated numbers in ;The Show of Shows are done overa background of extended arms andwaving palms. They forgot that itwas the singing in Porgy that waseffective.

Ol¬son, a sphomore who has revealedconsiderable ability as a Varsity per¬former this season, gave Jack bril¬liant opposition. Only lat-c of experi¬ence prevented him from finishinghigher. As it was, he won a firstplace, finished second twice, andthird once.The Maroon gsmutasts asserted anundoubted superiority in the SideHorse, Parallel Rings, and Horizon¬tal Bar events. The best event onthe program from the standpoint ofform and skill displayed was theParallel Bars. Captain Menzies,conference champion in this event,performed beautifully both times heappeared on the Bar.Iowa tied Chicago in Tumblingand also earned its only first place inthe meet. Captain Griswold of Iowatied Menzies for first place. The iremaining two places were won by,Phillips and Olson of Chicago. |Maroon veterans accounted for the jmajor portion of Chicago’s pointsin the fencing match against North¬western.

In thelast five years, except for informalwords of commendation from indiv¬idual faculty members, the Univers¬ity has been absolutely mute.One alumnus who returned tocampus to assist the debating teamremarked voluntarily that he wasbewildered that a recognized Univer¬sity such as this should refu-e tospend one cent to foster debating. Ifproperly encouraged, it might turnout to be a paying proposition like football, or at least self-sustaining.In view of the fact that PresidentHutchins was interested in debat¬ing during his college days, tne De¬bating union hopes that he will befavorably disposed on the question.CLASSIFIED ADSFOR SALE— 1929 DeSoto con¬vertible roadster, rumble seat. $395.Originally $1050.
