What of ItBy SIDNEY HYMANmy swan songNo child of Israel trembled moreat the foot of Mt. Sinai than I didwhen I heard that Mr. Flook of theBuildings and Grounds Committeewanted to see me. President Hutch¬ins, Deans Brumbaugh, Boucher,Works and Scott have always beenincidental factors in restraining mewithin the bounds of law and order,and I have always looked upon themas regular fellows, even as you and1. But the B. and G. Committee... . ^that was a horse of another hoof.Whenever I strayed from a con¬crete path, it was the B. and G. thatI offended. Whenever I tore up anexamination paper to strew its piecesalong a campus byway, it was theB. and G. whose sensitivities I jarred.A thumb-tack in the wall was a di¬rect stimulus to the B. and G. vaguecenter. In the eyes of the B. and G.squashing under a classroom seat apiece of gum that had reached apoint of diminishing returns was likepencilling whiskers and eye glasseson a portrait of Mona Lisa.Like all ignorant aborigines whoattempt to make their peace with thesupernatural, I created an elaborateritual whose orders I went throughevery morning lest the B. and G.<levil snap me up from behind andcrush me.IIWith my knees rattling like thebones in a dance macabre, I trem¬bled, trembled, trembled into the of¬fice of the B. and G., when the dreadsummons came. A custodian of atypewriter who some day will getmarried,—the lady, not the typewrit¬er—looked up and said, “Yea?”“I should like to see Mr. Flook.”“Name, please!”Industrial efficiency had reducedher vocabulary to a minimum of op¬erating expense. I gave her myname. In the olden days, the fullname of the Lord was uttered fromthe templb in Jerusalem by the highprie.sts on two occasions in the year,and the name caused all men to stopin their tracks. The same effect fol¬lowed when I gave the lady my name.m.After waiting until the clock spunaround four times, I was usheredinto Mr. Flook’s office. “My scalp,.Mr. Flook,” I said, as I offered it tohim courteouslyWell, I'm pleased to inform youthat Mr. Flook was very pleasant.He felt that I had been unkind toCharlie the janitor of Mandel Halland that I did not know enoughabout him to present to the campusan accurate estimate of Charlie’ssterling qualities. He told me a fewthings about Charlie that wouldmake all American mothers hopetheir sons were like Charlie insteadof like George Washington. In thecourse of our conversation, Mr.Flook, who is a member of Tau BetaPi, the national engineering honor¬ary society, let fall a remark thatwill forever endear him to me. Hesaid that there were several menworking in the service department ofthe University who had infinitelymore character in the Eddie Goestiansense, than there were men with likequalities among the members of thefaculty. Mr. Flook was saying whathe thought. We hope he thoughtwhat he said.nilWell sir, the B. and G. depaitmentbecame human in an hour's conversa¬tion. Burning grandstands, paintingsidewalks, white-washing windowsand kindred enterprises, while notencouraged by the Building andGrounds, are looked upon as inevit¬able objects on which students re¬lease excess energy. M!r. Flookwould encourage activities that areconducive to good fun. He admitsthat as compared to other univer¬sities, Chicago is as chaste as a mon¬astery. But God grace save anyonewho takes busts off pedestals, whopaints the walls of buildings—whodestroys objects that cannot be re¬placed.I’ll never ever step on the grassagain. There now, isn't this sweet?THE DAILY MAROONThis is the last issue of TheDaily Maroon for the winterquarter. The next issue will ap¬pear cn April 3, the second dayof the spring quarter.

Tickets will goon sale tomorrow at the box officein Mandel hall.Miss Goldman is in the UnitedStates on a ninety-day visit after anenforced exile of fifteen years. Shewas arrested in 1919 for protestingagainst the draft, and was deportedto Russia. Her stormy career has beenpunctuated by frequent imprison¬ments for her radical activities. Notlong ago after her arrival in NewRussia, she became disillusioned, andremaining true to her anarchisticideals, escaped to southern France.Born in Kovno, on the Russian-German border. Miss Goldman cameto America in 1886 when still achild. At twenty years old she join¬ed the anarchistic movement. Duringthe years before the war she touredthe country lecturing on anarchismand modern drama. She also tookpart in fights for free speech, andwas one of the early advocates ofbirth control.In addition to her busy life as alecturer. Miss Goldman has edited ananarchistic monthly “Mother Earth.”She has also written a number ofbooks on the subject of anarchism.FEDERATION COUNCILMEETS PROSPECTIVEFRESHMAN ADVISORSThe Federation Council, in its ef¬fort to secure upper-class counsel¬lors who are fully qualified to actas advisors to freshmen, will inter¬view all prospective candidates Mon¬day, Tuesday, and Wednesday from12 to 3 in the office of the Dean ofStudents. This is the first time thatsuch a method has been tried.In former years counsellors wereappointed by Federation on the rec¬ommendation of faculty membersand heads of student organizations.It is believed that the new methodwill be more effective in achievinga harmonious relationship betweencounsellors and freshmen.The system of having upper-class counsellors for all incomingfreshman women was establishedwith the plan of Freshman Week.Since its inception it has grown tobe the chief function of Federation,which was organized during theWorld War. ' SELECT MILITARYBALL LEADERS ONACTIVITIES’ BASISPersonality, Scholarship,Achievement Countin ChoiceAn attempt to make achievementand leadership, as well as personal¬ity, the basis for the selection ofcampus women to be the leaders andthe sponsors of the tenth annualMilitary Ball, will be made this yearby Crossed Cannon, the honor mili¬tary society, which sponsors theevent.The organization proposes to drawup a list which will include the out¬standing v/cmon of the Universitynicn reference to scholarship,achievement, and personality. Eachwoman will be given a certain num¬ber of points for each consideration,the number In each case being de¬termined by the importance of theactivity. Only women in fne juniorand senior classes will be considered.Consider ActivitiesFrom the list of approximately 25women, the 12 having the greatestnumber of points I will be chosen.The names of this group will then besubmitted to a faculty committeewhose approval will be necessary be¬fore the selection will be official.This committed Will include WilliamE. Scott, Dean of Students, Mrs.Harvey Carr, atusistant Dean of Stu¬dents, and Oeitrfide Dudley, profes¬sor of Physical Culture.Crossed Cannon has created thenew method of selection in reply tothe criticism tliat campus politicsand personality have been the dom¬inant factors in the choice. Since be¬ing selected as a st)0nsor or leader ofthe ball is considered an honor, themilitary society wishes to excludefavoritism anfi to give the meritedweight to qualities Other than per¬sonality. The latter will not be dis¬regarded, but it will be subordinatedto other attributes. Last year theselection was made solely from thephotographs submitted.

On the contrary, al¬low us to refute that accusation.i IAll science, arts, and literature have fundament¬al ideas, prihciples, and intellectual influences un¬derlying thenii' We have merely expressed, dur¬ing the quarter, V pi^eference for a kind of gen¬eral education* that would lead us to discover thoseideas, principles, and influences. In order toavoid confusiOjii lyith modern biases, we have con¬sidered that I the best way to get ideas is frommen who fitfit conceived and wrote about them.fhe validity * of' science is not attacked by thesupporters ol this kind of education, because dis¬covery and' difCUssion of ideas invites correctthinking, sttict use of reason, and logical systemsof thought-—iit 'p,word, rationality.What mor'e'li^trfcct example of complete ration¬ality can boi foUliq than the science of mathemat¬ics? How ipoiiiki I Reason be more perfectly usedthan in thelof physics?By acconblMiliiment science illustrates the ad-f ■ll!' ■ ' • Ivantages or njaffning how to reason and demon¬strates the.j^bfiy^iUties of man’s rationality. Yet,we, who W4it)it!'h!) know and understand man’srationality ^intellectual history, find ourselvesregarded as'fcikefhie^'of good science! -Perhaps wehave come into such bad regard because we sug¬gested that science and the scientific method doesnot apply to ^4^^iy^ing.Just as tl||4| ^)t|i8bning process cannot apply toall things, si| ^cientific method cannot be ex¬pected to be tne correct means of investigation inall fields of l^iinan endeavor. Education, for ex¬will never be a successful sci-ample, prob^ence. Let ua'ali^^rate.If a cert^iq tOipf is given to thirteen-year-oldchildren inlifl^ r-Oighth grade of the Winnetkaschools, it' is aSsi^ed that eighth grade childrenat University) acKool, at Bronxville, N. Y., or atany other eli||irtiUh'ity in the country will show thesame rating) qf. rf^onse. Is this process scientific?Can educdtiotiibe scientific? Probably not.If the new plan were strictly scientific, it wouldhave to start with infants and control all their ex-. Hf'iliill -.J ,periences age or two to twenty-two.Even theii,' they would have to know and takein accourt^'^^j^^ei^itary differences of each student.Such a system could not exist, and even if it did,it would '|!»rOidtrce perfect uniformity, and hence,intellectu^'stenjity.The new plan, as it now exists, has gone fartherfrom education by scientific method than anyother contemporary experiment in higher educa¬tion—a statement intended as a compliment. Afew vestiges of the method still remain, as, for in¬ stance, A, B, C, D, F measurements of studentprogress.But the new plan tends to demand its studentsto do v/hat good science would never do: pickup ’bits of practical knowledge without speculat¬ing about v/hat general idea or principle makesthat particular practical knowledge meaningful.In .rhort, the new plan has emphasized practicalthought, forgetting that speculative thought ismore adaptable to the purposes of general edu¬cation.Science, it seems, is a balance between prac¬tical and speculative thought. If the aim of spec¬ulative thought is knowledge and the aim of prac¬tical thought is control, science may be said toseek knowledge in order to control the forces ofnature.To argue about whether speculative thoughtshould precede practical thought is almost as use¬less as the famous dispute about the temporalpriority of the egg over the chicken. Since, how¬ever, theory usually precedes practice and delib¬eration logically comes before action, we havestated—and hereby state again—our preferencethat theoretical and speculative education comefirst, followed by practical education in the di¬visions.The scientific method itself prefers to beginwith hypothesis, continue with investigation, whichleads to a formulated theory, and the fourth stepis repeated testing and retesting until the theoryis either discredited or accepted.Since science agrees with us about use of hu¬man rationality, necessity of speculative thought,and logical priority of ideas. University scientistscannot be opposed by The Daily Maroon.—J.P.B.The Travelling BazaarBY CHARLES (“Scriblerus”) TYROLERALL THINGS COME TO AN ENDAll things come to an end, said he philosophi¬cally.

I agreed to discuss on an in¬tellectual level the philosophies ofrationalism and empiricism. I refuseto waste my vacation time quarrel¬ing over the “sins of The Daily Ma¬roon.’’2. I have challenged you or any ofthe students who wrote the criticismsof the new plan to a public debateon those statements which they madeon their articles last Thursday. I saidnothing about “causes and cures ofstudent opinion, precepts of journal¬ism, Francis Bacon, William James,or John Dewey.”If the students who so vehement¬ly criticized the new plan syllabi areafraid to publicly stand by theirstatements at a time when the restof the student body can be presentand at a place where fairness to eachside can be maintained, they mustbe very uncertain themselves of thevalidity of their criticism.The discusion during vacation isfine. But it must be based on thecompeting philosophies we each up¬hold.The debate to which I challengedyou is on an entirely different sub¬ject than philisophy. I challengedyou to uphold before the studentbody the criticisms of the new planwhich you made.If you are now afraid to take upthis challenge, we can all judge howvalid those criticisms must have been.Marie Berger.We will meet you in debate in thelecture room of the Oriental Instituteat 8, Thursday evening, April 6.Meanwhile, we look forward to thephilosophic discussion Wednesday,March 28.—ed.DREXEL THEATRRgS* E. *Sr«lFriday—.Sprnrrr Trscy snd LorettaYouns in “MAN’S CASTLE.”Sat.—Jamee Carney in “LADY KIL¬LER.”Sun. & Mon.—"THE MEANEST GALIN TOWN ” with Zazu PitU.THtll MONTHS' COURSIPOI OOUMt STUM NTS AND OIAOUATM> 1,moserlUSINESS COLLEGEPAUi MOtis.Aggadar CStwasa M Sdkaa/OrwSmOm •ah', airy W sCarWaay Dmgftiiwfc|gCsarssf»aa <a imm.m$.MIddgas A»a.,Qilcaao.*oa^tM 4MFSy MODERN MOTOR COACHTAKE that Easter trip by BuslEnjoy Spring highways, luxuriousmodem coaches.

Ofcourse a great deal of the successof next year’s team will depend onBill Haarlow’s ability to weather thecurrent crop of examinations. Therehas been some rumor that in caseBill doesn’t negotiate the exams hemay go elsewhere to complete hiseducation. ... but Haarlow seems tohave swung into the spirit of the newplan and is doing good work scholas¬tically.With Captain Tom Flinn, BillLang, Gordon Peterson. Leo Oppen-heim. Bob Pyle, and Bob Eldred re¬turning next season Coach Norgrenappears on the road to building areal team for next year. Bill Langwill probably be one of the outstand¬ing guards next year. . . .and it sur¬prises us that he did not receive jmore recognition this season.♦ * *Here’s the type of story we like 'to read. Floyd Kern, Washington ;University basketball captain, held idown the bench the greater part ofthe season. Kern couldn’t get going 'in practice but in the final game of ithe year against Butler he was sent ,into the game. Kern ran wild, scor- ;ing eighteen points in the last fiveminutes and turned the Butler run¬away into a real battle. Butler, Mis¬souri Valley champs, just managedto nose out Washington. . . .we don’tknow if Kern said “I told you so”to his coach but he might have said,“Well, what do you think\now?”* * *Marquette university basketeers,in selecting an all-opponent team,placed Bill Haarlow on the second, team. Lang and Peterson were giv-I en honorable mention in the Hilltop-pers’ all-opponent selections. The ,first team was composed of Voegele, !I Notre Dame and Buysse, MichiganState, forwards; Krause, Notre Dame,center; Beitner, Ohio State, andPoser, Wisconsin, guards. Krausewas the No. 1 opponent.* * *Frank Schmidt, Ohio State’s new jgrid boss, once taught dancing. iTwenty-five years ago Schmidt !taught aesthetic dancing to girls’ iphysical ed classes. However Schmidt Iis a versatile gentleman, and direct- Ited the municipal band of his home jtown, doubling in brass or cornet, jtrombone or bass horn in addition to j; his dancing class. While coaching at |high school he discovered some of his Ij football players loafing in the eve- jI nings so he organized singing class- Ies for his unoccupied gridmen. Yes isir, Frank Schmidt is a versatile gen- |I tleman. i Total intramural athletic organiza¬tion point standings for the year, in-! eluding revisions for the winter; quarter, were released yesterday by; Walter Hebert, faculty manager ofj intramural athletics.The new standings disclose thatPhi B. D. remains in the lead of theI race for the permanent trophy.
