MARCH 16. 1933 Price Three C8Sleep IsMatterof Habit FACULTY FAVORNEW PERSONNELRATING SYSTEMAre students who sleep less, exer¬cise less, and smoke more, in betterhealth than those who observe thestrictest health habits?A Survey made at Cornell Uni¬versity, recently published by • Dr.Dean F. Smiley, head of the Cornellmedical department, showed statis¬tically that this is true, but Dr.Nathaniel Kleitman, associate pro¬fessor of Physiology and secretaryof the department of Physiology atthe University, questioned these con¬clusions. “The survey can mean any¬thing and proves nothing,” Dr.Kleitman said yesterday.The Cornell survey found that inthe class of 1932 only 35.7 per centwere free from chronic ailment intheir freshman year, but as seniors47.2 per cent were in perfect health.As freshmen 5.5 per cent of thechuss indicated they got insufficientsleep, but as seniors, 16.9 per centclaim in.sufficient sleep. Excessiveuse of tobacco among the freshmenwas 5.1 per cent, against 17.9 percent for seniors. The class enteredwith approximately 800 students and600 survived to the senior year.Lack of Sleep Is NotCause of III HealthThese health statistics were ex¬pected to prove that extensive useof tobacco and absence of sleep pro¬duce individuals free from anychronic ailments, whereas it prob¬ably indicates. Dr. Kleitman believes,that those in* poor health droppedout of school before they reachedtheir senior year and 22 year oldmen and women are healthy in spiteof—not because of—their sleepingpnd smoking habits. “The survey, asit stands, is simply another proof ofthe survival of the fittest,” Dr.Kleitman said.A regular contributor to thePhysiological Review and the Ameri¬can Journal of Physiology with hisrapidly progressing investigationson the physiology of sleep. Dr. Kleit¬man went on to explain some of thephenomena of sleep.The number of hours of sleepnece.ssary is something which eachindividual must find out for himself.Some healthy adults can get alongon less than eight hours; others re¬quire more than nine.“There is no set number ofhours,” Dr. Kleitman pointed out,“that can be called ‘best’ for alladults: each must find out for him-.<elf.”Regular hours for sleep are desir¬able, as the habit causes the in¬dividual to fall asleep readily at agiven time, and a definite rhythm ofefficiency is set up. For an individualwho sleeps at night, his highestpoint of efficiency will be reachedsometime between noon and 6 p. m.Whether a student should do hisstudying early in the morning orlate at night depend.s upor^ wherehis highest point of efficiency oc¬curs. The period of best perform¬ance for an individual coincides withthe time of his highest temperatureand greatest metabolism.Insomnia UsuallyCauses 111 HealthThere is no “best” position forgoing to sleep, as the average per-.son turns over ten to twenty timesa night. People who sleep off theeffects of intoxicants do not turn |over at all, and consequently awak- !en in bad condition, sometimes with ione side temporarily paralyzed. INo harmful effects come from too ;much sleep, except the habit of lazi- 'ness. “He who claims that he is !.sleeping too much,” says Dr. Kleit- iman, “is simply stating that he stays iin bed too long, and does not get iany more sleep than his body has ineed for.”Insomnia is most often caused by iworry of some sort. Anything thattends to increase nervous tension :will produce sleeplessness. Most ipeople waken at each of the ten or Itwenty times they turn over duringtheir period of sleep, but if no in¬ternal or external disturbance is evi¬dent, they will not recall any of theactually numerous awakenings.“Sometimes,” Dr. Kleitman added,“A person will think he has insomniawhen he wakes to hear the clockstrike two, then goes back to sleepagain, only to be awakened at the.«troke of five and think that he has(Continued on page 4) Instructors See Plan asUseful, Difficult toCarry OutThe recently inaugurated systemof personnel ratings, designed tosupplement the S, U, R, grades, hasbeen received with interest, and inmany cases with enthusiasm by mem¬bers of the faculty. Some w'ere dubi¬ous about the application of the rat¬ings to large classes but all appre¬ciated the scholastic significance ofthe personnel charts.William E. Scott, assistant pro¬fessor of economics and an adviserin the college, said: “The absenceof alphabetical grades necessitatesan effective supplement to the gradefor the awarding of scholarships andPhi Beta Kappa keys. The effective¬ness of these reports depends uponthe individual instructor, but theyshould prove beneficial to the ad¬visers and the instructors in boththe college and the upper cla.sses.”Highest Approval for PlanFred B. Millett. associate profe.s-sor of English, and Harold Swenson,assistant professor of Psychology,expre.ssed the highest approval forthe plan. Mr. Millett feels that anadequate picture of every studentcan be drawn from the personnel, analysis and Mr. Swenson regards it' as an excellent test of student apti-i tude. Both considered such a sys¬tem indispensible to the new grad-, ing scheme.i Leonard Cottrell, instructor inSociology, and Jerome Kerwln, as-i sociate professor of Political Sci-I ence, regard the system as useful,but they predict difficulty in apply¬ing it to their students, particularly' in large classes.I Contact in Claatroom ExamsLouis Wirth, associate professorof Sociology, believes that an in¬structor will be able to fill out thepersonnel blanks fairly and ade-! quately through contact with theI student in the classroom and byi means of his examination papers.Mrs. Mayme Logsdon, associate pro¬fessor of Mathematics, declares that! it will not be difficult to fill outblanks fairly in the case of poor stu-j dents or of exceptionally good stu¬dents, but “it is hard to judge theability of the normal students be¬cause they don’t react either way.” Admit 15 Studentsfor Spring QuarterFifteen students have been ad¬mitted to the University fromthe group of 20 high school grad¬uates who applied to enter asfreshmen Spring quarter.Last year 52 applications werereceived and 42 were accepted bythe Office of Admissions. WilliamF. Cramer, secretary of Admis¬sions, accounted for the decreasednumber of applicants on twogrounds: first, students who grad¬uated from high school in Feb¬ruary were urged to enter theUniversity then; and second, theUniversity is accepting only thehighest ranking graduates whoapply for Spring quarter admis¬sion. The others are requested towait until the Autumn quarter.FRENCH PHILOSOPHER,GERMAN ACTOR TALKIN CAMPUS LECTORES ANNUAL ALUMNIASSEMBLY BIBSSTAGG FAREWELLGraduates to Honor ‘OldMan’ Tonight atDrake HotelTw'o distinguished foreign speak¬ers will visit the University in thenear future to appear on the Uni¬versity public lecture series.

Postpone Adams PoetryReading Until TomorrowThe finals of the Adams Poet¬ry Reading Contest will be heldat 4:30 tomorrow afternoon, inClassics 10, instead of today, aspreviously announced. These fin¬al readings have been postponedbecause of conflict with a facultymeeting, which had already beenscheduled for that date. Contest¬ants for the two cash prizes of$75 and $25 include Natalie Gor¬don, Joseph Hamburger, ArthurHeim, and Jane Weinreb. Removal of the brass numeral 5from the address plaque on the frontof the Oriental Institute is the lat¬est outrage in what appears to bea definite campaign against the mu¬seum. A special guard will be plac¬ed around the Big Bull if theseatrocities continue, according to theBuilding and Grounds department.Last year the Freshman Human¬ities class persisted in removing thearms from the seats in the assemblyroom of the Institute, and this yearthe freshmen were excluded fromthe library for making too muchnoise.Removal of the address plate istoo much, say the building andgrounds department.

But the things thatcommunities propose to do to them in the hysteriaof economy far surpass the wildest aberrations ofbull-market days. We hear a great deal about frills.What are frills? Teachers’ salaries appear to befrills in some cities. The health of sch'ool childrenis a frill in others. . . . The plain fact is that theschools are under attack because it is easier to getmoney from them than it is to correct the funda¬mental iniquities and antiquities of local govern,ment. Only a people that had no conception ofthe place of education in its national life couldcontemplate the ruin of the next generation asthe best remedy for governmental insolvency.”—Robert Maynard Hutchins.>(■'>{■ *“A year moratorium on higher education wouldbe declared in Oklahoma under a resolution in¬troduced into the state legislature today.

Throughout the country newspapersand politicians are demanding reductions in edu¬cational funds in order that public budgets mightbe more nearly balanced in a time of depression.And throughout the country educators are point¬ing to the fallacy of public economy achieved inthis way.President Hutchins, President Glen Frank ofthe University of Wisconsin, and other leaders inthe field of education are demanding that adequatefunds be given to the nation’s schools and col¬leges in order that these institutions can continueto carry on the work for which they were consti¬tuted. And the Chicago Tribune, in its Sundayeditorials, accuse these men of circulating unwisepropaganda "that shakes our confidence in thegood judgment of you to whom the education ofthe nation is entrusted.”Through it all the writer is unable to understandwhy special efforts have been made to save thenation’s banks, to resuscitate insurance companiesand major industrjes, and to underwrite this orthat enterprise with public loans, without any at¬tention being given to the importance of saving |the public sch'ool systems of the country, Neces- isary as it may be to protect banking and industry, !we wonder if, in the long run, it is not even more !

President Hutchins, when he re¬marks at the fallacy of economizing in educationalexpenditures while permitting wastefulness in otherless important branches of government, has point¬ed to the essential joker in the newspaper and leg¬islative campaign to reduce school budgets.Economies in the operation of public schoolsand universities are undoubtedly possible andshould be consummated. Frills should be elimin¬ated. But any scheme that proposes to curtailschool terms, close higher educational institutionsaltogether, and otherwise limit educational oppor¬tunities, is vicious and extremely short-sighted.The schools of America have often been re.ferred to as her best insurance for the protectionof American ideals and policies. Professor Strayerof Columbia University, speaking' at th'e recentmeeting of the National Education Association atMinneapolis, declared, "If we deny education,we must provide more space in jails and peniten¬tiaries. If we restrict the opportunities provided,we will invite social disaster. One cannot disas¬sociate the American school program from thefuture stability of our government. ”It is, beyond question, time that intelligent citi¬zens protest against the increasing number ofstupid proposals suggesting that the place to econ¬omize in public affairs is in school ^ budgets.—W.

If the show of that titlecontinues the liveliness and zest itdisplayed last night, the remainingthree performances will be the em¬bodiment of activity and pep.This original presentation is be¬coming a tradition, offered by theWomen’s Athletic Association andthe Men’s Union on that campus.Nothing quite of this nature can befound or is a part of our own localefforts.The Mirror is recently past; butmen are still essentially “guest art¬ists.” Blackfriars is coming; but thatgroup retains its original characterof a men’s organization. The Dra¬matic Association produces work ofa different nature. But that is thecontrast between Northwestern andChicago; their show, if given on ourcampus, would be as incongruous asany of ours if taken to Evanston.And so, we just exchange local at¬mosphere, and become Northwest¬ern-minded, and enjoy their own sa¬tires of Northwestern’s well-knownpublicity methods. Even Chicagostudents can appreciate their fun¬poking at the failure of the get-proteges-on-this-eampus-and-we’ll-be-nationally-publicized campaignlaunched last fall. The irony andtake-offs on the football team—withPug Rentner prominent in the cast—rings the bell with any other con¬ference school.The music is remarkable, the bookclever. Staging is far from amateur¬ish, and at times tremendously ef¬fective. The orchestra, though toolarge for the auditorium, worth list¬ening to. As for dancing—we maybe prejudiced, but, somehow, weliked the Mirror ballet and tappersbetter. The cast is exceedinglylarge, yet this does not lend awk¬wardness, and the performance runs.smoothly and fast. There is a danceteam which nearly stops the show—a team almost‘as professional asthat of “Cat and The Fiddle.”The plot shifts deftly from thepresident-faculty conference todrum up publicity, to the registra¬tion of a princess. With this incen¬tive, the entire action unravels, thesororities tear each other to shreds,there’s love and romance betweenthe princess and a commoner (acampus big-shot), there are newspa¬per photographers always in evi¬dence. Fraternity life, activities,politics, the Junior prom all come infor their share of attention. TheWAA-MU is inherently collegiate.At times the atmosphere shifts toinclude what smacks of modern bur¬lesque shows; the inclusion lends anote of crudity that raises a Chicagoeye-brow. But on the whole, theproduction is surprisingly finished,thoroughly enjoyable.The locpl campus will probably no¬tice an exodus tomorrow eveningwhen the WAA-MU show declares“Hats Off” for “Chicago Night.” SOCETY GIVES PRIZEFOR REST ESSAY ONSOUTH OR CIVIL WAR■'.

The annual meetwill be held tomorrow evening atBartlett natatorium. Competitionwill be held over a short course forthe first time since 1930.The Wolverines, who are defend¬ing champions, are do'ped to repeattheir triumph of last year. They areslated to take the 220 yard freestyle on the basis of performancesby Captain John Schmieler, whoholds the present record. The ver¬satile Schmieler, who is also the 200yard breast stroke champion, willnot compete in this event since he ismore valuable to his team in the re¬lays.Chrstie. who took third in theOlympics, is favored to break the440-yard free style record. The 300yard medley relay and the 400 yardrelay, which is a new event, are alsoconceded to Michigan.A record-shattering race in the100 yard free style event is expect¬ed to find Art Highland, Wildcatphenomenon, first in a star field in¬cluding Flachmann of Illinois, Ren¬ner of Michigan, and Ketola of Min¬nesota. Don Horne of Northwestern,conference record holder in 200yard breast stroke, will have to seta new mark in order to beat outLemak of the Wolverines, William¬son, mini star, and Andre of theGophers.Conference records can be madeonly at the annual championshipmeet, either in the preliminaries orin the finals. Captain Wrighte Leads GymTeam Despite Knee InjuryGeorge Wrighte, a junior in theUnivei*sity, is the mainstay of CoachDan Hoffer’s perennial championshipgymnastics and tumbling team. Cap¬tain of this year’s squad, he hasbeen a consistent point-winner forthe Bartlett team in its march itoward the Conference crown dur¬ing his two years of Big Ten com¬petition.Handicapped by a bad knee in¬jury, suffered during last year’s sea¬son, he nevertheless has overcomethis obstinate difficulty to place in ■events not requiring much leg work.Wrighte’s events are: side horse,parallel bars, flying rings, and hori¬zontal ,bar. Restricted to four eventsin Conference competition, he nev¬ertheless is proficient as an all-around performer. Until his kneewas injured he placed high in tumb¬ling events.In the dual meet with Wisconsinlast week-end he took three firstplaces, in side horse, and paralleland horizontal bars. He was out¬standing in the triangular meet withIllinois and Minnesota.Before coming to the UniversityWrighte was all-around city gymnas¬tics and tumbling champion.
