They call them the Tekes,and they are not to be confused withthe Dekes, or you can confuse themif you wish.For some time now they haven’thad a greMt deal to offer the campusin general, but they seem always tohave enough members to go along,surviving in one fashion or another.This would seem to indicate thatthere must be some kind of a bondthat the brothers feel, and that theyprobably enjoy one another’s com¬pany.Lately they have come across anew service that they can render tothe community. It’s hard to tellwhether this “new found service” isa result of wishing to attach them¬selves to something in lieu of cam¬pus activities, or whether they act¬ually believe all of it. Let me quotefrom another of those “omniscientsheets.”“The men in the house have gath¬ered together a “gang” of boys(largely from broken homes) be¬tween the ages of ten and twelve and Participate mProjectsBy RALPH W. NICHOLSONMore than 200 research projectsare now being carried on by the fac¬ulty and students of the School ofBusiness. A large part of the workis in connection with the present gov-ermental machinery set up under theadministration’s recovery program.Several men in the school are de¬voting most of their time to workin connection with the effects of thepresent administration on business.Dean William H.

I ha, alwady daae considerablework at the capital. When on cam-boys have formed a club and usethe fraternity house as a clubhouse.The main purpose of getting thegang together and bringing them intothe house is to provide for them anenvironment and a background ofexperiece that they can’t get at homeand can’t get on the .streets.“We furnish these boys the oppor¬tunity to keep off the streets and outof petty stealing by supervising theirplay. W'e help them do things to¬gether, letting them use the base¬ment room for meetings.“According to the Tekes, f*atern-,ities have a fine opportunity now towork for and achieve the soci:d idealsthey are supposed to stand for. Thisis one activity that justifies the ex¬istence of fraternities and does creditto them, since they are contributingto the patching up of our badly-creaking social structure. (I’m pret¬ty sorry about that last, I know itsounds pretty high; this is beingcopied verbatim).”Then they go on in, a bit highervein, as to the fraternities liftingthemselves to a higher level that willdo credit to them as an institution.It finally begins to sound like a crossbetween Charlie Greenleaf and JohnBarden each raving to the other thatsomething must stop.However, it is true that the boysover there are accomplishing some¬thing and should be congratulated.It is a slightly clouded point as towhether they are doing this out ofthe goodness of their hearts, orwhether they think that they mightfind a couple of prospective rushmenin the bunch. If the latter is true,I think it only right and proper thatthe Interfraternity Council be in¬formed as to what is going on. Fur¬thermore, I think they ought to do.something about it.

Since 1911 he hasbeen the head of the Department ofPhilosophy of the College of the Cityof New York.Charles W. Gilkey, dean of theChapel, and a friend of Mr. Over-street for many years, said of him,“He is the best known interpreterof philosojfhy, and his books arewidely read for an understanding ofthe subject and its relation to life.”Last February Mr. Overstreet.-poke at a Sunday service in theChapel on “Unfinished Business: OurPresent America Concern,” to oneof the largest congregations of theyear.

Gideonse after acidlypointing out that Mr. Moley, expert in munici¬pal government, has no business expressing opin¬ions in the field of economics, has expressed insomewhat denunciatory fashion his views in thefield of education, (see "Editing the News" in theCollege library at Cobb hall).A pragmatist by inclination, admission, and en¬vironment, ^4r. Cjideonse should believe in thefundamental concept of change or flux. Yet heis hostile to change or flux in the new plan. Heis even hostile to anyone who suggests change inhope of producing thought.While we are quite unable to imagine Mr.Gideonse content with anything that exists, hehas surprised us by closely approaching somno¬lent contentment with the new plan.Like Mr. Gideonse, we admire the stimulatingeffects of the new plan and believe it to be thebest existing educational plan in this country. Ifwe remember correctly, lectures by Mr. Gideonsewere the most provocatively stimulating factor inthe whole new plan set-up. Indeed, if one couldremember interpretations of economic facts andideas by Mr. Gideonse long enough, one couldpass comprehensive examinations without diffi¬culty.Yet, despite our admiration of both new planand Mr. Gideonse, we do not hesitate to criticizeeither, since we do not allow our criticisms toaffect our original admiration.We have occasionally used the terms, idea andconcept, interchangeably and have assumed thatthey are immutable abstractions of the intellect.Mr. Gideonse has bulletinized his extremedoubts about our knowledge of the meaning of“idea” on his Cobb library bulletin which re¬flects scintillating clashes of Moley, N, R. A..Roosevelt, Hearst, Tribune, and Maroon biasesagainst Gideonse-bias. The first poor group, ofcourse, have reached dismal depths of ignoranceand foolishness, while the latter represents equal¬ly dismal heights of pragmatic, pure reason.Further, Mr. Gideonse has deftly raised thequestion about the immutability of ideas.Admitting that there is reason to doubt any¬thing and even greater reason to doubt anythingappearing in the Maroon, we take Mr. Gideonseto that worst possible authority from our point■of view—pragmatic, anti-intellectual WilliamTames, founder of the school to which Mr. Gid-■eonse subscribes, In James’ "Psychology" we|6nd this: . *[ ^‘Concepts ^^oirm one dess of entities that can¬not change. The'very conception of flux itselfIS an absolute cBpngeless meaning in the mind:it signifies that one thing, flux, immovably.

Since James’ philosophy seemsto be Mr. Gideonse’s also, we take pleasure inputting him in the same hole just to watch himget out of it.But this is not all we have against the views ofEconomist Gideonse on education. 'Admitting that the new plan does not cover allfields of knowledge, Mr. Gideonse adds, ‘‘Neitherdo the classics.’’ ' ' ■In reply, we merely ask Mr. Gideonse to namea single field that in its fundamental principlesand ideas, cannot be found among the qne hun¬dred books called the classics. Upon receipt ofthe name, we will undertake to find the book,author, and page numbers which deal with theprinciples of that field.Again, Mr. Gideonse has said the translationsare second-hand, incorrect, and inaccurate, whichis precisely what we said was the condition ofmodern text-books and lecturers.If we agree with Mr. Gideonse, we merelymove the condition of modern authorities onemore step toward complete imperfection, for howmany of them can read Hebrew, Greek, Latin,French, Spanish, and German?The re-edition of Maroon editorials by Eco¬nomist Gideonse was more caustic than plausible;we have attempted to refute those which nearestapproached plausibility.It was splendid .that Mr, Gideonse intimatedin ‘‘Editing the News’’ that action explains andhence precedes thought. Action before thoughtwas never so admirably and painfully demonstrat¬ed as in "Editing the News". Mr. Gideonse isalways to be admired for his consistency andpractice of what he preaches.Nevertheless, we have the greatest good willtoward Mr. Gideonse, and we wish him the bestof luck in his fight, side by side with the ChicagTribune, against the N. R, A. on the points: regi¬mentation of public opinion, non-toleration. Fed¬eral control and indoctrination, and monetarypolicies.—J, P.

At midnight a buffetsupper will be served. Matrimony as a course will prob¬ably never be included in the Uni¬versity curricula, said Herbert Blum¬er, associate professor of Sociology,in commenting upon the new’ courseat Columbia, which is required of allI sophomores, for a “freer conception' of the relation of the sexes, unhind¬ered by law or religion.”Such a course would result in a; rarity of divorces among the alumni,by giving the “scientific procedure”in the event “another woman” entersthe picture as well as the propermental attitude to be assumed whenhubby comes home late to find ..themeal has grown cold. So believesSamuel Stouffer, assistant professorof the University of Wisconsin’s so¬ciology dpartment and former pupilof Professor Blumer.But Mr. Blumer thinks that di¬vorces are a natural outcome of im¬proper mating and as such are nec¬essary. In addition, he maintainsthat the teacher of such a coursewould be difficult to find for hewould require unusual specificationsas to subject knowledge and person¬ality.
