Dr. Paul Hudson and a ;small Kroup of fellow-workers will jtell you that this virus, unlike thatcausinjf easier controlled diseases, is ia “filtrable virus,” for they cannotsee it, cannot stop it to examine it;ithe org’anism slips through their fin¬est filters. Its deadly effects arethe only indication of its presence.Hut these men are .striving to segre¬gate that organism, to remove itfrom the blood of infected bodies,and to grow it in tubes or other jtissue that they may study its char-1acteristics, find its weakne.sses. Only Iin this manner can they learn how jto desroy it, how to prevent its 1growth in human bodies. One mem¬ber of the staff is trying to growthis virus in live tissue—living cells jin incubators—that he may learn in jwhat way these germs develop.

Hayw'ard deals first withthe . geographic disti’ibution ofplants and their response to thefactors of environment. From thispoint the syllabus takes up the re¬lation of water and light in seedgermination, the anatomy and de¬velopment of the plant, the methodof obtaining and manufacturingfood, and the life cycle of plants.Twenty-one ExercisesThe fifty-four pages of mimeo¬graph comprising the syllabus con¬tains twenty-one exercises wiihnotes and I’eferences after each ex¬ercise.Nathaniel Kleitraan in preparingthe syllabus on physiology dealsfir.st with the framework and anat-om.y of the bodyHe has grouped his material un¬der the following heads: Protoplasm,Its Structure and Properties; Mo¬tion, Conduction, Internal Media,Circulation, Respiration, Digestionand Absorption, Heat Production,Excretion, Nuti'ition, Regulation andCoordination through the EndocrineGlands, the Senses, and Regulationand Coordination of ActivitiesThrough <he Nervous System.Under each of the main topics Dr.Kleitman ta1<es up a number of sub-topics. For instance under Respira¬tion, he deals with oxidation as asource of energy, anatomy of therespiratory system, fftie mechanicsof lung ventilation, the chemistry ofJung ventilation, regulation of res¬piration and diseases of the I’espir-atory system.The zoology syllabus prepared byAlfred Emerson contains forty-fivepages of material grouped undertwenty-nine main heads.

HowardAssistants: David C. Levin and Eugene PatrickTHE STUDENT RELIEF DRIVEThe Chapel council, a body about which little is generallyknown, has announced its intention to supplement the various formsof aid for needy students maintained on the campus. Within the nextfew weeks, an attempt will be made to raise a fund of one thou¬sand dollars, some of which will be set aside for promotion of theemployment of students who need part-time work; while the re¬mainder will be employed for direct aid to be administered to un¬fortunate students.The Daily Maroon applauds, the courage of the Chapel coun¬cil in undertaking the venture at this time, and extends its bestwishes for the success of the project. Scholarship funds for thecoming year have already been all but exhausted, money set asidefor student loans has been called upon more heavily this fall thanever before, and it is apparent, in spite of these forms of studentaid which now exist, that there will be many students forced toleave school at the close of the fall quarter, merely because of a lackof financial backing.Remarkable in that the money which is to be used for the aidof needy students is to be raised by appeal to more fortunate stu¬dents, the Chapel council’s projects deserves the respect and sup¬port of every undergraduate. The good old maxim that “charitybegins at home” can be applied with utmost force to this under¬taking. Every student who is being supported at the University byother than his own efforts owes it to his less fortunate classmatesto help the'success of the Chapel council’s relief drive.K THE GREEK COUNCIL’S BIG CHANCETonight, at the first meeting of the Interfraternity council, planswill be discussed for the regulation of rushing under the new systemto be inaugurated this year. TTe solution of this problem is the In¬terfraternity council’s big chance to make a name for itself. In thepast, the body has been mainly concerned with log-rolling for theelection of a president, which president, when elected, would bemainly concerned with taking a trip to some faroff town where thenational Interfraternity council was having a convention.The council also has conducted an annual function known asthe Interfraternity ball. Aside from these activities, it has beendormant for some years past, and has apparently had little reasonfor existence. Last spring, the administration got tired of waitingfor the Interfraternity council to suggest deferred rushing, and calledthe boys together to announce that in the year 1932-33, pledgingwould take place,in. the spring.Now^S however, the council has a chance—nay, is even beingurged—toijdilsplay some initiative. It is to formulate and presentto Dean Scott (who is the University’s one-man Interfraternity coun¬cil) a definite plan for the regulation of rushing and pledging in thespring of 1933. The Daily Maroon hopes that the council willnot muff this opportunity.The Daily Maroon also earnestly recommends that when thisplan is drawn up, it includes the practice of closed bidding. Underthis scheme, each fraternity submits to the administration a list ofthe men it wants to pledge, and each freshman lists in the order ofhis preference the fraternities he wants to join. If he is bid by hisfirst choice, he is pledged by that club; failing that, he joins theone he listed second, and so on. All information is held by theauthorities in strictest confidence.Advantages of this plan over the catch-as-catch-can system,whether that system is operated in the fall, as in the past, or in thespring, as in the future, are immediately apparent. No undue pres¬sure can be brought on any rushee by any fraternity. The old prac¬tice of hot-boxing will be gone for good and all if closed biddingis adopted, and, moreover, the rushee himself gets something to sayabout the fraternity which he would prefer.Arguments which will be urged against the plan arc that thefreshman will not be able to tell which fraternities will bid him,and may not be bid by any on his list, while the fraternity will notknow, if it issues, say. twenty bids, how large a delegation it is going I to pledge. These claims lose much of their importance when it isj realized that, in practice, each rushee which a fraternity plans toI bid will be spoken to in advance of the bidding, in an effort toI sound out his fraternity preferences. In general, it is safe to assumethat an agreement will have been reached verbally between theI fraternity and the men it wishes to pledge before the bids come out.I The advantage of closed bidding is that under no conditions can' a man be forced to join an organization against his will or betterI judgment.The practice of closed bidding is in operation in many of iheI more progressive universities throughout the country. It has beeni employed here on the campus by the women’s clubs, and has provedto be eminently satisfactory. There can be no objection to the planon the ground that it is untried; and the practice of open biddinghas been tried and found wanting.Although The Daily Maroon strongly recommends the insti¬tution here of a system of closed bidding, it is more concerned tosee that some action, no matter what, is taken on the problem ofregulation of pledging by the Interfraternity council. In the past,the body has been merely an arena for small-time politicians, andnot in any sense a governing body for the Greeks. With the advent University Golf Team j NAME 19 WOMENOldest in ConferenceGolf was fostered at the Univer¬sity earlier than at any other con¬ference school, a fact weil attestedby the award of the first majorletter in that sort to a Maroonathlete.The golf team schedules sixmatches every year, three of whichare plaj’ed at home and three awayfrom the University.

Miss Gall is beinscampus organizations, the council has a quite real function to | P^’t^nce and endeavour during the ^ presented at Town Hall in Newperform.

Stagj? putvarsity backs through an intensivedrill on new plays yesterday, Line-coach H. O. Page sent both firststring and substitute linementhrough a gruelling session ofblocking, tackling, and charging. Af¬ter an hour of dummy practice, thereserve line scrimmaged the fresh¬men, who managed to score threetouchdowns.It was obvious that the objectivesfor the week will be two: develop¬ment of reserve line strength thatcan be used in case one or more ofthe stanch regulars who playedthroughout Saturday’s struggle areinjured; and synchronisation of moreor less intricate plays with which tobaffle the Yale defense.The injury-ineligibility situationseems to be definitely in hand now,with Stagg. Sahlin, Wien and Sum¬mers. who had slight bruises orwrenches from early season scrim¬mage and the Michigan game, tak¬ing strenuous daily workouts, andwith Temple eligible..lames Weber Linn, professor ofEnglish, who was a member of thevarsity football squad for severalyears, predicted yesterday that"(’hicago will score two touchdownsto one for Yale” and hoped “thatthere will be lots more”, afterwatching passing and puntingpractice.Practice Place-KickingZimmer, Wallace, Birney andToigo spent a preliminary half hourin getting off punts, while Zenner,Sahlin and Johnson were polishingup their piace-kicking technique.Wien and Hamberg have also shownproficiency in booting the pigskinbetween the bars, especially the lat¬ter, who scored the Maroons’ firstpoint-after-touchdown in two yearson Saturday.Yale and Chicago have agreed toa non-scouting arrangement, a factwhich heightens the possibility forsurprise and deception in their en¬counter this Saturday. The Prince-ton-Chicago encounter two yearsago, likewise a non-scouting affair,went to the Maroons, 15-7.On successive Saturdays, the Yaleteam has met Maine and Georgia,and the results have varied as wide¬ly as the location of these twoschools. The Bulldogs, the footballexperts averred, “were held” byMaine to a 19-0 win, and the fol¬lowing week “held” Georgia to a26-7 defeat. Albie Booth, 160pound quarterback, most highlypublicized and at the same time thefleetest and most elusive collegefootball player in America, flashedone 75-yard run from kickoff againstGeorgia, only to be stopped by AusieDowns, star southern back from Chi¬cago. “Watch Booth” will probablybe the Maroon slogan next Satur¬day.The Maroons, however, boast atleast three backs who are capable ofsharing Booth’s spotlight. Bob Wal¬lace, blond fullback and a sprinterduring the winter and spring track Every Freshman Week bringswith it a recurrence of an infinitenumber of problems which have re¬mained unsolved for years in theattempt to adjust, in one shortweek, a group of several hundredfreshmen to a University atmo¬sphere with which they are compar¬atively unfamiliar. One of themost acute of these problems hasbeen that of social mal-adjustment.It is only fair to allow that nomatter how’ much effort is made,some freshmen will remain in thatstate of mal-adjustment either bytheir own volition, or by the diffi¬culty they may have as individualsin adapting themselves to a new en¬vironment. Nevertheless, it is ap¬palling how many freshmen are notI incorporated into the University, soj that as a result they remain aloof,untouched, and at odds with theworld and themselves. They belongneither to the University nor totheir former home life, and. findtheir state comparable with that of“the man without a ountry.”I With the introdution of the newplan of deferred rushing which isI now maintained among the clubs; and which is to be adopted by the' fraternities a year hence, the situa-‘ tion has only become more complexI for there are fewer students whoi will be secured by those groups dur-: ing the next two years to conformj to the particular club or fraternity' pattern which goes with the pledgepin.j A new social program for Fresh¬man Week should be in order. It is, not that the freshmen desire theI well-scorned “rah-rah-ism” of otherj Universities, punctuated with “hel¬lo weeks” and similar obvious prac¬tices traditional upon some cam.puses, but simply that they sincere¬ly desire the devising of some in¬formal, respectable method by whichthey may meet people.At the present time the “mixer.s”have been relied upon to fill thisneed, but there are flaws which im¬mediately appear. In the firstplace, only a limited group actuallymix at these affairs. Surely stu¬dents would not attend these dancesif they did not expect an enjoyablehour or two of recreation. The factthat hundreds of students do attendis an indication of interest; but thefact that many must be bored uponarriving and leave with a feeling ofdisappointment indicates that a lackhas not been filled. Second, there islittle attempt made to introduce thefreshmen to each other. It is asurprising fact that freshmen real¬ly are bashful, even though theymake a gallant effort to cover upwith a nice air of sophistication.There is little help given those whoseasons, has speed and some decep¬tion, while Vin Sahlin, shifty half¬back whom the “Old Man” hasdubbed “the General”, has an un¬canny ability to pick holes in theopposing line. Pete Zimmer, pow¬erful running, passing and kickinghalfback, is not only fast, but alsopossesses the weight and staminato shake off tacklers.The game Saturday will be broad¬cast by Hal Totten, Quin Ryan andPat Flanagan, among others. Sta¬tions who have announced their in¬tention of covering Yale’s first west-tern inva.sion are: WBBM, WMAQ,WGN, WENR (NBC), and KYW.PROFESSOR or STUDENTYou’ll enjoy the quiet home-like atmosphere of theWoodlawn Apartments5238-40 Woodlawn Avenue1-2 rooms completelyfurnished including maid serviceTwo students at the same rate are too retiring to make acquaint¬ances.A number of hostesses presidedover the first mixer, and with theadditional help of the Aides andMarshalLs, the evening was gener¬ally turned into a success. Had thepractise been continued by provid¬ing a group of hosts and hostess-esat the succeeding affairs, a solutionto a large share of the social prob¬lem might have been met. The Up-perclass Counsellors who were pro¬vided by the Federation of Univer¬sity Women might have assisted,also, in introducing the freshmen,had they been allowed an opportun¬ity to act in an official capacity;but, being unknown to the fresh¬men men, their intrusion wouldhave been resented and probablyavoided.Were a little inquiry made of theprivate opinions of upperclassmenand freshmen, some valuable sug¬gestions could undoubtedly be ob¬tained. But the careful considera¬tion of those who plan the socialprogram for next year, in view ofthe current situation which has aris¬en from the sweeping changes inthe University curriculum and thealteration of the rushing system,should produce a better relation be¬tween the entering student and theUniversity environment, and amore certain elimination of socialmaladjustment.

Duchess of Tuscany....Lea PenmanVettora, Bianca’s BrotherKemble KnightJulia Catherine LaceyCelio Malespini Gregory RobinsPiere Buonaventuri ..Howard BaileyLong ago in \'enice. Bianca Cap¬pello twisted into her life the thinthreads of an ambition which grew in¬to a noose and hanged her. It is aformula all too familiar to those whohave weighed their fortunes on thescales of power for generations inmany realms.Elizabethan, Stuart, and Augustantragedy have brought to the theatre icountless examples of unhappy usurp-;ers who ignored the usual laws of ex¬istence to hold a sceptre: and theyhave found, one and all. that the sym¬bol of power maimed the hands Avhich jheld it. Throughout the history ofdrama, authors in search of plots have,hied themselves to the boneyard oftarnished majesty and there havefound unpublicized corpses needing!only the glitter of stage jewelry and 'the crimson robes of state, to retrievetheir decadent vitality.Under the pen of John Shirley, iXichnlas Rowe and Thomas South-;erne—despicable cardinals, ambitiousstepmothers and Jane Shores have aris-en from the dead to stalk the stage, |amid the blood and thunder of his- jtoric melodrama: and now CliffordBax digs up Bianca Capello. But in ,doing so. he falls into the old error ofhis many predecessors, and mistakestheatrical grandeur for majestic trag¬edy.* ♦ *“The Venetian” is nothing but apretty tableau. Directed by Miss^Van Volkenburg, the players take thestage in trailing gowns, and read the jlines which unfold the tragic fate ofthe ambitious heroine and the dukewhose faith in her was absolute. It isa plot capable of Shakespearian pro¬portions: but in its present form, itwaddles about like an elegantly dress¬ed fat lady.There is no hint of tragedy in theheavy mechanical action of “The Ven¬etian”. Tragedy, after all. unfoldswith the development of a great char¬acter. There is nothing great 4n thecharacter of Bianca. She enters thescene as a wife, pleading for the lifeof a husband for whom she had given |up all material comforts. .\t the first isign of his stupidity, she is transform-;ed into a medieval gold digger w’ho jdoes not stop at prodding human flesh Iwith her pick. |There is no character development iin her chance of mind. She is essen¬tially a self-willed person, with noneof the milk of human kindness thatcrept into the determination of a LadyMacbeth. Fortunately, in the personof Margaret Rawlings, Bianca takeson an appearance of vivid humanity;but that is only because Miss Raw¬lings has a voice that makes her per¬formance operatic. The same is trueof Wilfred Walter, who does his pol¬ished best with the character of theduke.* * *.'\nv nicrit that “The Venetian” piayhold lies in this Walter-Rawlings ^duet. The actual play is an overstuff-jed. plushy affair that sits on the stage,like an antique sofa and tries to bepretentious without cause. It looks un- jconrfoi table and its grandeur is some-jhow very hollow. jSound and fury signify little. The iessence of tragedy lies far beneath the ^garish glory of a red robe. j (Continued from pag^e 1)food are necessary for its growth.Each worker in this little grouphas a special task in carrying onthis study. Each one knows thatupon the accuracy of his work depends the success of the efforts ofall the others—and the success ofthe campaign against this disease.Here is a case of teamwork trans¬ported to the laboratory. 'Speed Is VitalAnd do not think of these re¬search men as leisurely, plodding in¬dividuals puttering about a testtube or a microscope! For Dr. Sut¬ton pointed out that they work un¬der the realization that if they canshorten their period of experimen¬tation by one year, thousands oflives will be saved—lives which arebeing lost every day that this dis¬ease continues unchecked Yet they jmust not hurry. And they, as allscientific experimenters, must workknowing that 80 per cent of theireffort is wasted, and that it is im¬possible to predict what 20 per centof their studies will bear fruit.Meanwhile, each man pushes alittle further out into the unknown iterritory that must be crossed in all jsuch discovery. He uses the inform- iation and materials of the pioneer ^that preceeded him. and in turh icontributes his own share tb the !slowly accumulating store of knowl- iedge. {But there is other work going on iin Ricketts laboratory. In 'fan^ther 'room. Dr. Clay C. Huff is studying ,the tropical disease of malaria, ex- jamining this illness in many^ biTjitthat he has about his laboratory)translating his findings into ierm^ ofhuman sicknesses. He has tnAhll’ ikinds of mosquitos breeding on nis 'shelves, and he is learning why cer- itain kinds transmit this dreadfultropical malady. Dr. Taliaferro is;also interested in tropical diseases, i and each year he has visited south¬ern regions, bringiny back his find¬ings and materials for study andsolution on this campus.The few men that have been men¬tioned are but characteristic of thework of the Hygiene and Bacteriol¬ogy department and research staffof Ricketts, under the direction ofits chairman. Dr. Edwin O. Jordan,who is himself a noted authority onfood poisoning and influenza.Two Animal RoomsNot the least interesting sectionsof this building are the animalrooms, in w'hich are kept the cagesof monkeys, guinea-pigs, mice andother animals used in these experi¬ments. Carefully cared for, theircages clean and comfortable, theseanimals comprise a miniature zoo inthe heart of the University campus!The purpose they serve as experi- !mental subjects for this w’ork is a vi- jtal one, indeed! And the writer learn- ;ed why it is that guinea-pigs are al-;ways the universally used and pop¬ularly known subjects for such ex¬perimentation. In the words of Dr.Birkeland, “they stay put!” Aguinea-pig does not dash and friskabout as white mice, for instaace, areapt to do.The story of Ricketts laboratory,but hastily sketched here, would beentirely incomplete without refer¬ence to the man whose name itbears. Howard Taylor Ricketts, as¬sistant profe.ssor in Pathology atthe University, had a career mark¬ed by enthusiasm and ability inmedical research. That career wascut short in 1910 by typhus fevercontracted during his investigationsof that disease in the City of Mex¬ico. Ricketts laboratory is a struc¬ture built to commemorate andpersonify through the work of itspresent staff the courage and .sacri¬fice of this early University .scient-,i.st.TWENTY-EIGHT YEARS AGOOctober 14, 1903With the completion of Barnettgymnasium, two new Universityteams are to be organized, a bas¬ketball and a gymnasium team.These sports will be representativeof the University in the same waythat football, baseball and traqfi jare.
