UNIVERSITY DEBATESOXFORD TOMORROWON “PROFIT MOTIVE” **Modem Prophet**Speaks hi ChapelWells Burnette and Vernon Lyon,representing the University DebateUnion, will meet two students fromOxford University tomorrow at 4:30in an international radio debate.Percy H. Boynton, professor of Eng¬lish, will be chairman of the debate.Station WMAQ will carry the con¬test. Oxford will defend the propo¬sition, “Resolved, That the Profit,motive should be eradicated.”The NBC network, in cooperationwith the British Broadcasting Com¬pany, will broadcast the debate,which will be carried over approxi¬mately 50 stations of NBC’s chain.The Chicago team will speak fromthe radio studio in Mitchell towerand the Oxford students will talkfrom London. The debate will last30 minutes; each speaker will havesix minutes.New Plan StudentsBoth of the University debatersare new plan students. Burnette,whose home is in Pueblo, Colorado,has had several years of debatingexperience and last year led a debateteam on a barnstorming trip throughthe Southwest. He was recentlyelected secretary of the Debate Un¬ion. Lyon, who is from Vermillion,South Dakota, was state high schooldebate champion and has had previ¬ous experience in radio debating.The debate was originally schedul¬ed for November 25 on the subject,“Resolved, That Democracy has fail¬ed,” with Oxford on the negativeside, but it was postponed until Jan¬uary by NBC, with a subsequentchange in subject. This will markthe first time that the Union has en¬gaged in an international radio de¬bate.Burnette and Lyon were selectedby Dr. S. McKee Rosen from 20 stu¬dents who tried out last November.The University Debate Union willbroadcast over NBC again on Feb-(Continued on page 3)RECOVERY ACTS WILL DOMINATE1934 BUSINESS TRENDS—MEECH“Business trends for 1934 seemlikely to be dominated by Govern¬ment recovery policies and methods,”Professor S. P. Meech of the Schoolof Business told the Chicago RetailController’s Association last night(Thursday) at the Hotel LaSalle inhis discussion of “The Outlook for1934.” “While some argue that aworld ‘natural’ recovery has beenunder way since July, 1932, othersbelieve this rise in activity merelyreflects the normal or long-rungrowth of population. Implied in thislast interpretation is the underlyingsteadiness of world economic activ¬ity, the probable end of liquidationat least. If this is so, governmentrecovery plans will not have to bat¬tle the forces of world liquidation.What luck!Predict* Increased Production“Looking ahead, the first half tothree-quarters of 1934 seems des¬tined to be one of improving volumesof production, prices, trade, employ¬ment, and payrolls. The second halfor last quarter of the year is oneimpossible to forecast at present.Consideration of the major govern¬ment recovery activities forms thebasis for this conclusion. “NRA can hardly damage recov¬ery much. Its price-determinin,g,consumer-protection activities willawait adequate data and the resultsof trial and error in their use. Regu¬lation of competitive practices, revi¬sion and enforcement of codes, arelikely to be slow developments—per¬haps long-run developments. Immedi¬ate relief for small business, codemodifications to reduce territorial,inter-industry differentials alleged tobe unfair, will tend to loose competi¬tive forces, to free business fromtoo rigid regulation. “Roots", by Edith Grossberg, Is Hitof Dramatic Association PlayfestTAP DANCER“The Tap Dancer,” a noveltydance number written by WilliamCarroll, former Blackfriars’ compos¬er, will be broadcast over stationWBBM at 4:30 on Monday afternoonby Clarence Wheeler’s C. B. S. or¬chestra.Carroll has written many hits forpast Blackfriars’ shows, including“It’s Blackfriars Time Again” and“Song of the Tombs” from “Gyppedin Egypt,” and “Lovely Lady” from“Whoa Henry.” By BETTY HANSENAnother annual Playfest programwas presented in the Reynolds Clubtheater last night—with various re¬sults. Three plays, written, acted, anddirected by students, testified to thefact that student talent at the Uni¬versity is not to be underestiipated.Edith Grossberg’s play, “Roots”was undoubtedly the hit of the eve¬ning. It was a fine, sensitive portray¬al of the struggle of the youngergeneration to find a foothold in ashifting world. Terry Hirschfield andCharles Nicola were excellent in theleading roles, which they played withfinesse, skill and understanding. In¬deed, the entire cast, with one excep¬tion, succeeded admirably in main¬taining the half pathetic note of thepiece without making it dreary.Splendidly WrittenThe single exception, unfortun¬ately, was the exceedingly talentedauthor of the play, Edith Gro.ssberg.Her shriif voice, abrupt nods, andstiff, precise manner spoiled the real¬ly fine lines and obtruded a note ofstridency into the smooth melody ofthe play. Although her acting wasindeed a disappointment, Edith Grossberg deserves much praise forher splendid writing.“The Creative Urge,” by RobertSharp, is a light piece of fluff whichneither Lois Cromwell’s charm norGeorg Mann’s smooth assurancecould save. The lines were trite, thesituations good enough (they havebeen for generations), but the gen¬eral effect was polite ennui and im¬polite coughing from the audience(and particularly your critic).Like Mu*ical Comedy“Painted Mesas” by Dorris G.Fish tried hard to be dramatic, butcame dangerously near to being mus¬ical comedy. We were actually sur¬prised, at the close of Flip Ebert’sheartrending rendering of “Home onthe Range” not to see a chorus ofbooted (and spurred) beauties comedancing out.Jean Russell did well as Janet Mac¬Gregor—she even wept effectively.Ethel Ann Gordon was brittle and alittle unpleasant as Linda; shebrought a hint of hardness into apart which should have steered clearof that commodity. Steve Hawxhurstwasted his ability in a small part,while Rita Cusack was colorful asTeresita.Quartet Begins NewSeries of Concerts Broadcast PoliticalTalks for WomenWMAQ Will BroadcastContest Over Stationsof NBC NetworkDr. Reinhold NiebuhrMcNeill, Sweet,Offer Series ofReligious TalksThe Chicago Theological Seminaryand the Divinity School will presenta series of lectures on “The Makersof Christianity” on five successiveTuesday evenings from February 6to March 6.

Syracuse ProfessorScores *Rah-Rahism’in American Colleges“Rah-rahism” in American collegeswas the subject of much criticism byKarlin Capper-Johnson, professor ofCitizenship at Syracuse Universityand Oxford graduate recently.“Whereas American colleges gener¬ally subsidize their achievements forincreasing their annual enrollment,English colleges sponsor athletics pri¬marily for the sake of providing recre¬ation and sport for their students,”Professor Capper-Johnson said.He further maintained that in thiscountry a chosen few are permittedto compete in the athletic contestsand they are usually given scholar¬ships to secui'e their playing. “Majorathletic competitions are money mak¬ing propositions,” he said.Professor Capper-Johnson was rab¬id in his criticism of “promotion” ofpre-game enthusiasm. He pointedout that the British student attendsthe competition only because he is in¬terested in seeing a fellow studentperform. Thus, “the British attitudeis more of spontaneous approval thanone of organized pre-game propa¬ganda.”kPage Two THE'DAILY MAROON.

Propositions: Possibly these are relationships*ofI ideas. 'j Principles: We might say that these are funda-I mental propositons that are almost as unchange¬able as ideas. Other propositions are built uponthem.Theories: To describe this term adequately weshould go back to propositions. It might be saidthat there are two types of propositions: generaland factual. Propositions of fact may deal withthings and general propositions only with abstrac¬tions. We might say that theories are generalpropositions, the expediency of which are de¬termined by facts.Memorization: Constant use of the retentivepowers of the intellect.University: A community of scholars.Cf^ge: The period in which a general educa¬tion is communicated to students.No dehnitions ever apply to all the cases any¬body can invent.

The Daily Maroon is about to make oneof those drastic changes of policy which upsettradition and the socialite order.We will no longer accept tickets to affairswhich are given for charity I But there are con¬ditions to our policy of non-acceptance.' First, we reserve the right to judge whether ornot a story is news or mere publicity. It is a dutyof The Daily Maroon to print all the news oc-\ curring on the campus. It is not a duty of The' Daily Maroon to furnish publicity for the purposeof augmenting ticket sales to affairs promoted bycampus organizations. Nor is The Daily Maroon‘ the particular publicity agent of anyone.Second, when it can be demonstrated that anorganization is promoting an affair in the genuine' interests of charity, they will not be able to per¬suade us to accept complimentary tickets, if theaim of charity is used as a blind, we will guaran¬tee to do our best to rid the campus of that par-^ ticular organization.Third, if the organization bestows any compli-^ mentary tickets upon anyone without attemptingto force six of them upon The Daily Maroon, weshall be very rigid in our distinction between whatis news and what is publicity. The Dean of Stu¬dents office will referee on the definition of whatis complimentary.The shades of past Boards of Controls willquiver in agony when they learn of the philan¬thropic tendencies of their weak successors onThe Daily Maroon who have added Charity ,toFaith and Hope.Come Brothers Thompson, Ridenour, andGreenwald!

The other day Age and Experience accost¬ed us: "Youag man,” said he, “People should letyou alone. You are just at the age when you knowyou are right. Nobody should destroy your il¬lusion, because it’s absurdly precious and may lastall of two or three more years.”Truly, this impression is unfortunate. We donot know we are right. We don’t even think weare right. At optimistic moments we sometimeshope so. We have taken a provocative attitudeand have aimed at good-humored controversy.Whenever we give the impression of knowinganything it may be accounted for by an uncon¬trollable defense mechanism.

Both Chicago andWheaton, which belongs to the LittleNineteen college group, have lost toNorth Central this season. However,Nels Norgren’s men have progressedmuch since that defeat. Moreover,only one regular, I’eterson, was play¬ing at that time.Wheaton LineupWheaton will start Bass and Law¬rence at the forwards, Glover at cen¬ter, and Newsom and (iray at theguards. The quintet has won ten outof sixteen games played this year,i aptain Frank Lawrence and Roberti.rlover are the five's best scorers, av¬eraging ten points a combat. Gray,husky guard also is a strong threat,having shown his scoring ability bymaking 11 points against North Cen¬tral.

No admis¬sion will be charged.Although they beat George Wil¬liams last year, Coach Dan Hoffer'smuaclenieii may experience some dif¬ficulty in repeating this year. WhileGeorge Williams has most of lastyear’s team hack, the Maroons are notrated as strong as last year. Thiscoupled with the fact that W'illiamsoutpointed Northwestern a short timeago indicates that the spectators willsee an interesting duel Saturday.All members of the Maroon teamwill see action except Ted Kolb, whowill not be able to enter the tumblingevent because of an injured back. Cap¬tain George Wrighte, conference all-around champ, will compete in allfive events.MAROON POLO TEAMMEETS BLACK HORSETRIO AT RIDING CLUBSportFlashesCalifornia, Hare Wa 'Cork“Catting tha Air”—The Landing Saorara—Eleven Relay*—-By TOM BARTON- Beginning their long home standat the Chicago Riding club, the Ma¬roon polo team will play the BlackHor.se Troop trio at 8:15 tomorrowevening.

BURG AND BROOKSWILL COMPETE INTRACK MEET TODAY.''Kiiton Burg, an Olympic Games per¬former. and John Brooks, a confer¬ence champion, will compete this af¬ternoon in the annual Freshman-Varsity meet at 4:30 in the fieldhouse.These two former Maroon starsshe uld do much to improve the cali¬ber of competition which promises tobe the best in recent years. Burg, a6' 6" high jumper, will compete inthat event, while Brooks, who hasleaped over 25 feet will broad jump,run the low hurdles and the 60 yarddash.The yearlings will be handicappedby the loss of their star niiler, John¬son. who has been ill, and also thelack of any high jumper of merit.Nevertheless, a close meet is in pros-l)cct with the varsity team a slightfavorite. The final outcome may de¬pend upon the relay which will heeither one mile or three-quarters of amile in length. Smith, Dystrup, Sills,and I’erlis will probably run for thevarsity while the green shirt entrieswill most likely be chosen from amongJones, Lindenberg, Ramsey. Beal andWebster. Captain Cullen would com¬pete in this event were he in shape,but his injured leg is still holding liimi back and it will he quite a while be¬fore he engages in any races.track record was broken Wed- Schwartz Visits !

FRIDAY, JANUARY 26, 1934The GreeksHave a Word—By HARRY MORRISON—SIGMA NUProbably the most talked of fra¬ternity among the other fraternitiesis Sigma Nu, Gamma Rho chapter,University of Chicago. Everyonefrom the Hitchcock janitor to the w.k. glassblower in the basement ofKent has probably at one time oranother expressed the opinion thatSigma Nu would go off campus, hadgone off campus, or should go offcampus. Thi» stuff is not true and hasno foundation. It seems that the boyshave been content to have their funand not create a rumpus, and so allthe smart people who have ideasthought them dead.They have the best financial struc¬ture of any fraternity I’ve visitedyet, and I’ve seen all but three ofthem. It works something like this:Every member pays one dollar amonth to a fund which goes to thenational organization. This has re¬sulted in the creation of a fund,which by this time has reached some$3,000,000, by means of which thelocal groups may finance theirhouses. As a result, of the 99 chap¬ters, 86 own their own houses.The national offices hold the verysmall mortgage on the house, andthe boys pay $100 a month to theirdowntown offices. This takes careof the interest on the mortgage,taxes, and repairs to the house, andleaves only coal and food bills as ex¬tras to be paid. One of the nicestthings about this system is that it isawfully safe.While we’re on the dough and tokeep from writing it in Chinese,which would not only be hard to dobut somewhat unintellijnble, let ussay that to live in the house and getall the privileges accorded to suchmembers, the fee is $46. It costs $17a month to live outside the house;the initiation fee is $45, and thepledge fee, $6.HISTORY AND THE IDEASigma Nu is a very strong nationalfraternity. It’s well known and re¬spected. The first chapter was found¬ed in 1869 at Virginia Military In¬stitute and the local chapter in 1904There are 99 chapters and I declineto say whether or not I consider thisto be over-expansion.There are two things about theirorganization which might be interest¬ing. In the first place, they have analumni group that has succeeded inplacing a number of their men ingood positions after graduation. Thisgroup brings speakers out to thechapter- house once in a while, andthe men are subjected to lectureswhich they say they like. This samegrroup has, at the instigation of thenational organization, placed proc¬tors at each chapter house to help themen with their work. They claimthat this has worked well so farACTIVITIESThis is the part that could verywell be left out, because as far asactivities go Sigma Nu closely re¬sembles a blank paper. They have thecaptain of the fencing team, whichis swell, and another fencer who, according to the captain, is a regular.They have a first lieutenant in theR. 0. T. C., and a guy they said wasgoing out for baseball. Julian, thecaptain of the fencing team, saidthat, “Hinchcliffe, besides being agood track man, would be a debater,if he didn’t talk so much.”That ends their activities. It ijieansthat they’re woefully weak and doingpractically nothing in the realm ofundergraduate activities. Out of 1active members, there are 5 men whoseem to be remotely interested in ac- |tivities. and these are all athletic ex¬cept the guy who does a' little play¬ing around in Dramatics.PHANTASMAGORICALThere was a rather amusing littleletter to the editor which didn’t suc¬ceed in worrying anyone. This can¬not be said of all the letters to theeditor, some of which made me think,and others of which made me thinkit would be nice if uninterested peo¬ple would mind their own business.The one about phantasmagorical ourdear editor answered very weaklyand not Very much to the point. Ithappens that the w'ord was used ad¬visedly and with a full knowledge ofits meaning. It was not used, assome persons have suggested, in aweak hope that I might find out justwhat it did mean. I saw Bud Hough¬ton this morning and he said that theletter had not been written by anEpicurean and, furthermore, phan¬tasmagorical was just what the Epi¬cureans have always attempted tobe. That made me feel warm allover.

But the few whichdo remain prove beyond a shadow of doubt thatthey owe their existence to something besides mean¬ingless sentiment.So that when, in this iconoclastic era of blase un¬dergraduates, we find a tradition as vigorously aliveand flourishing as the Washington Prom, we aremoved to stop and consider a moment whether ornot there isn’t some deep-seated and extremely validreason for its existence. We shall soon discover thereIS just such a reason. The Prom has, for a genera¬tion or so, furnished an apex for the University s ocialcalendar—a focus point toward which the eyes of thecampus turn with undiminished enthusiasm year af¬ter year.THIS YEAR IS NO EXCEPTION.
