MEYERTALKS TO FIRSTMEETING OF NSLThe campustr chapter of the Na¬tional Student league will open thisquarter’s activities with a meetingon Thursday, October 11, at 4 inroom 302 of the Social Science build¬ing. Frank S. Meyer, formerly ofPrinceton university and more re¬cently of the London School of Eco¬nomics, will add»’ess the meeting.As president of the students’ unionof the London School of Economics,Mr. Meyer incurred the displeasureof the authorities because of theleading part he took in fighting in¬creasing encroachments on students’rights in the school. He was finallyexpelled because of vigorous opposi¬tion to an order proclaiming a gen¬eral censorship of all literature soldwithin the school, and was asked toreturn to the United States by theEnglish government.Student bodies of manv univer¬sities actively protested i»is expul¬sion, and such eminent men as thedean of Canterbury, Bertrand Rus¬sell and J.

E. Emerson,professor of Zoology, there just isn’tany nearby place that is free fromthe little pests, more scientificallydesignated as being the order Hemip-tera and the sub-order Hemiptera,not to mention the family Aphididae.How soon will wc get relief fromthe winged insects? we asked Pro¬fessor Emerson. “Well, it might bea week—but then again, since theflight is so heavy, it might be onlythree or four more days!”“Why are there so many around,though?” we ventured to ask. Theanswer is that the insects are mem¬bers Off a family which sucks tlu,juices of one plant and then mi¬grates to another host at a certainseason of the year. And this happensto be that time!Other than its annoying quality,the bug is noted for its cyclic repro¬duction, which means that sexualgenerations are alternated withparthenogetic generations. But nomatter what the type used in propa¬gation the creatures are in the publiceye in spite of their multi-syllabichabits.UNIVERSiry PRESSPUBIISHES13 BOOKSBYFKCDLTrAOTflORSSponsor AnnualFreshman FrolicTomorrow NightThe 22nd annual Freshman Frolic,sponsored by the Y.

NicholsonAssistants: Stern and CutrightTuesday, October 9, 1934IS IT WORTH IT?(Reprinted from The Daily lllini)There are a number of students arriving on cam¬pus a week before registration who are not con¬cerned with fraternity or sorority rushing. Thesestudents are looking for jobs to earn their way atthe University. Some will secure satisfactoryplaces in which they will earn their room or boardwhile others will not be so fortunate.As these ambitious youths strive to help them¬selves many ask the question, “Is it worth it?”During the period when college education wasrestricted to the privileged minority, the childrenof wealthy parents, higher education was consid¬ered the lone key to success. Later, state univer¬sities afforded the children of the working man anopportunity to attend college. They found thatfour years of study gave them a tremendous ad¬vantage over a high school graduate in obtaininga position with a fair income, and statistics still in¬dicate that if the universty graduate does get a jobhe advances more rapidly and farther than theindividual whose education is completed in thesecondary schools.However, during the present period of job scar¬city, students consider the cultural values of edu¬cation as much as they do the job-getting advan¬tages. It is in considering the latter factor thatthe question of “Is it worth it?” is brought for¬ward.Dwight F. Bracken, director of the bureau ofemployment, who is the working student’s great¬est aid, does not agree with the common beliefthat the student who “works his way” gets morefrom his university education. He is of the opin¬ion that the working student misses a great dealin his college career because he finds it difficult toparticipate in student activities. This loss is quiteobvious and it is a great one.The natural conclusion would be that since theworking student is not diverted from study by out¬side activity he would make better grades. How¬ever, even if the general grades of the workingstudent are higher in some cases there is no defin¬ite indication that he receives more benefit fromhis study. Professors and instructors sometimessay the working student solicits their sympathy tosecure grades. Many students who are forced toneglect their assignments because of having towork at night or at other times which may inter¬fere with their study schedule, seek to avoidgrades by appealing to the leniency of their in¬structors. In instances of this type the workingstudent is the loser.These are the losses of the student who has tosupport himself. What are his gains?Probably the greatest gain that can be namedis the preparation and training he receives forcompetition in the outside world. It is er.sily seen \THE DAILY MAROON. TUESDAY. OCTOBER 9. 1934that the working student is striving against heavyodds while he is attending school and this will un¬doubtedly strengthen and develop his abilities toa far greater extent than the student who receiveshis allowance from home.The working student receives admiration, re¬spect, and understanding, and he needs all threebecause they may help to answer the question,"Is it worth it?”ANOTHER QUERYThe above editorial from The Daily lllini rais¬es questions peculiarly pertinent to the University.Fhe large number of students making tremendoussacrifices to obtain a degree may well ponder if!t is worth it. The very fact that they are hereis proof that they believe it is, but we are curiousto know their reasons. The Daily Maroon wouldlike to hear from such students and urges themto write us. While the question is interestingphilosophically, and many think they know theanswer, we believe that the reasons advanced bythose who know the problem from experience willbe more provocative.—H. P.

THEDAILYMAROONDAILY MAROON SPORTSTUESDAY, OCTOBER 9. 1934 Page ThreeShaughnessy Works Squadinto Shape for Michigan;Teams Are Well MatchedBalfanz Adds Strengthto Eleven by RecentEligibilityApparently more evenly matchedthan they have been in the last dec¬ade, a Maroon team that is stead¬ily advancing, and a Michigan teamthat has not developed as rapidly aswas expected, should provide a greatgame on Stagg field Saturday after¬noon.Ralph Balfanz, powerTul endfrom Aboline, Texas who was declar¬ed eligible Saturday after passingan examination in Social Science I,reported for practice yesterday andbegan work in learning his plays.The defeat of Michigan by Mich¬igan State last Saturday has buoyedthe hopes of the rank and file ofthe .Maroon followers, but it hasbrought no joy to the Universitycoaching staff. Coach Clark Shaugh¬nessy, who scouted the game, can.see only a spur to the Michigan ef¬fort resulting from Saturday’s set¬back.State Deserved Wio“Michigan State had a fa.st andsmart team that deserved to win,’’Shaughnessy said yesterday. Michi¬gan lias a potentially strong outfitof powerful individuals, but CoachKipke apparently didn’t have time toget his new combination organizedto meet the strong game that Mich¬igan State offered. His team alsoobviously suffered from the disabil¬ity of Regfcczi and the absence ofRenner. But all I got out of thegame was the idea that Michigan willbe much better coordinated by Sat¬urday and will make faster progressthis week because of the disappoint¬ing start.’’The .Michigan State game demon¬strated that the theory on whichShaughnessy has been working formore than a week was the right one,for .Michigan State’s speed and opengame beat the Wolverines. Shaugh¬nessy devoted all of last week to de¬veloping his open game, in the hopeof breaking some of his fast menloose under cloak of a deceptive setof plays.The Maroon insistence on speedmeans a big opportunity for NedBartlett, the sophomore sprinter wholooked highly effective in his debutgainst Carroll. Bartlett does nothave the cleverness of Jay Ber-wanger, but he does have speed thatgets him away on wide plays.Skoning in BackfieldThe other important developmentin the backfield may be the displace¬ment of Rainwater Wells by War¬ren Skoning, the hard blocking soph¬omore from Elgin. Wells has notbeen giving a particularly lively per¬formance in the backfield, whileSkoning has been working hard andgetting better every day. The soph¬omore has replaced Wells in thecombination during the last two daysof practice.In order to use iBartlett’s speedmost effectively. Jay Berwanger,who has learned three positions inthe backfield, may go to fullback,with Bartlett taking over the lefthalfback position. Bartlett may notstart the game, however, for Shaugh¬nessy seems to incline toward usinghim some time after the game getsstarted, dropping him in when theoffensive situation looks most prom¬ising.The eligibility of Balfanz will notbe of much importance in the Mich¬igan game. Balfanz does not knowthe Maroon plays and he is not incondition. In another three weeks,when he can be fitted in, he will beof real value at end.CLASSIFIED ADSPractical and academic training inRUSSIAN .by expert. Also tutor of French, Ger¬man, Latin. D. B.

The Corn-to a nationalAnn Arbor, Michigan (Special) —Chicago will be far from the door¬mat that it proved to be when Mich¬igan won 28 to 0 a year ago. Scout¬ing reports furnished by Coach RayCourtright rate the Maroons as adistinctly better team, a team cap¬able of giving any eleven in theConference a battle. Jay Berwanger,flying halfback, and Captain Pat¬terson, center, are the big guns ofthe Maroon eleven and their posi¬tions will be given special attentionby the Wolverines during practicesessions of this week.It is probable that the team facingthe University will be much the sameas that which lined up against Mich¬igan State Saturday. John Regeczi’sbeing back should bolster the attackconsiderably and relieve Kipke’smind entirely on the question ofpunting.Indications are that the team willbe followed by a large number ofstudents and local alumni who willsee the game and take a last lookat the W’orld’s Fair. The team willleave here late Thursday and willwork out in Chicago Friday. tween the halves of the Michigan j. and since we are making somelong-distance prediction, we pickIowa to blast Ohio State’s undefeat¬ed record—which the Buckeyes willhave acquired by that time andgame will be one of the best whichhas been organized at the Universityin recent years.The songs which will be playedby the band will include “Our Chi¬cago,’’ “March of the Maroons,’’ and“Flag of Maroon.’’ Whether “Wavethe Flag’’ or “Chicago Loyalty’’ willbe the most played Maroon song thisyear will depend on their respectivepopularity, for it was definitely stat¬ed by Howard Mort, director of theband, that both songs will be onthe music stands at ail times.One of this year’s innovations willbe two drum majors, both of whomwill cavoort before the band in theirmarches next Saturday.

They sought exam¬ination in much the same way thatwe seek medical advice. Four monthsof research by four experts werespent in collecting the material andnine months of review and studywere devoted to the data.The analy.sis finds that the typicalRotarian is a busine.ss man, in theemployer rather than the employeclass, whose firm has a national ratner than a local market. Among otheithings, he is a church member, ahigh school graduate, a native bornof native parents, and his interestsare city-wide and national as opposedto sectional or international. In num¬bers, he is overwhelmingly Republi¬can and conservative.
