Their answers are tabulat¬ed in the adjoining table; coursesaccording to the departments underwhich they are given.English Classes StimulatingThe fact that the English depart¬ment was listed as both the most andleast stimulating is in itself not start¬ling, but the significant fact shownby the survey is that of the 79alumni who considered courses inthat department most stimulating,only 29 indicated that English com¬position courses (essentially the sameas the present English 102 survey)were stimulating, while of the 69finding English courses least stim¬ulating, 39, or more than half, ob¬jected to the composition courses.The principal objections to themethods and teaching which thegraduates listed were the practice ofallowing graduate students to teachcertain introductory courses, poorpresentation and organization ofcourses, and the fact that introduc¬tory courses were often re-hashes ofprevious material. In commenting onPolitical Science 101, one graduatesaid, “This course was simply a re¬hashing of a high school 'civics^'course, and taught me practicallynothing.”Literature in VoidFurther, “English was studied asthough literature were written in a‘void’; as though life and manners,economics and scientific progress hadnothing to do with it.”“I believe that in general moreattention should be given to teach¬ing at the University of Chicago,There are a number of brilliant re¬search men with whom I have beenacquainted who in private conversa¬tion have been very stimulating, butwho have neglected to prepare theircourse work. There is among thesemen a tendency to let their teach¬ing slide, to fail to throw their in¬terest into it, and to neglect thevery important factors of compre-hensivesness and organization.”“I am an opponent of the practiceof allowing undergraduates to betaught and aided by graduate stu¬dents who regard the work as a choreand a duty—most of them are neith¬er stimulating nor well-informedthemselves for student guidance.”Survey Is PopularWhile the general survey, “Natureof the World and Man” received 21enthusiastic votes, several others ob¬jected to the survey system on thegrounds that it “was too comprehen¬sive to be gjasped readily.”“The average survey is generallyoverloaded and loses by its wealth ofunimportant matter. A well-special¬ized course will serve the purposefor any degree of decent study willcause it to embrace most of what isimportant in the period, and thereremains a solid body to hold togetherthe peripheral material.”Activities, though neglected in thesurvey, were listed by many studentsas most beneficial, “From a dollarsand cents standpoint, as I see it,Blackfriars was the most valuable‘course’ I ever studied.” Another,“Courses and professors were of lit¬tle value. Campus activities—otherthan fraternal—were stimulating,especially dramatics and close work¬ing friendship with the Maroon staffetc.” One graduate lists track, swim¬ming, and tumbling as his three mostvaluable courses.Page Two THE DAILY MAROON, THURSDAY, MAY 23, 1935(Fit? iatltj HlaronnFOUNDED IN 1901MEMBER|l\6sotiat|^ gbilegtate-5 1034 (gyif^iair&esl 1035*-•WMKN VMSCONSMThe Daily Maroon is the official student newspaper of theUniversity of Chicago, published mornings except Saturday,Sunday, and Monday during the autumn, winter, and springquarter by The Daily Maroon Company, 6831 University Avenue.Editorial office: Lexington hall.

Get yours at anydown-town news-stand today. Don’t fail to getthe real low-down on the higher-ups from onein the gutter of ignorance.We don’t know Mr. Hewitt. We don’t want toknow Mr. Hewitt, especially since he prefaces hispamphlet with paeans of praise for his ‘ super-patriotism" by Mrs. A. W. Dilling, author of thenotorious "Red Network.”If Mr. Hewitt is a super-patriot, save us, dearGod, from super-patriotism. Who is this Hewitt? ,Who owns him? Whence did he come? What;are his qualifications for disseminating such igno- ■rant, malicious lies? He has attacked men who !jhave served their country; men who have been :decorated by their country for bravery underfire; and have been honored by America for dis- |tinguished service. |This traitor is slandering patriotic Americanswho have devoted their lives to American edu¬cation and whose ancestors have guided Amer¬ica’s course and defended her shores. Thisunknown libeller spreads vilification over one ofAmerica’s greatest universities. His subversivepamphlet is poisoning the minds of honest cit- ^izens in and around Chicago. His cloak of “Sup- jer-patriotism” is the last refuge of a scoundrel Iand a coward. IBut bitter recrimination is not an antidote for |ignorance and malice. Long, loud, lusty laugh¬ter will cure this Hewitt’s accusations, founded injuvenility and prejudice. jWith that child-like faith which has so longsustained this University we believe Mr. Hewitt isprobably a nice young man with a big mand an inferiority complex.

And if the editorial iwriters have a field-day and the cartoonists out¬do themselves and have a great time drawingdisgusting pictures of hogs and men running [around witli caps and gowns on, with all kinds of .dollar-signs floating around rather indiscrimi¬nately, then the make-up men always are verycareful to print down at the bottom of the editor¬ial page a few extremely clever and well-chosensly bits of wit and humor. This, they maintain,is psychology. The reader of the Tribune editor-al page is first confronted with a lot of bloodand thunder and enthusiastic criticisms of any¬thing and everything which has to do with gov¬ernment or Washington so that he becomes in¬dignant and can’t digest his breakfast. Thencomes the psychologj’ part of it. At the end of theeditorials, down at the bottom of the page theyput in these aforementioned extremely clever andwell-chosen bits of sly wit and humor. The edi¬torial reader is then soothed and able to keephis temper, and begins to see that after all, whatthe hell if Washington is nothing but a gang ofbums, there are two sides to everything if you’rebroodminded enough and the whole world is fullof funny things if you only look for them. Haha. The Tribune is smart in things like that.Far be it from them to antagonize their readers.First an editorial, then a joke. The New Dealis rotten. Ha ha. The NRA is a big failure. jHa ha.

Gray of the University andMiss Bearnice Leary, of the depart¬ment of Education at St. Xavier col¬lege, have produced a notable an¬alysis of the elements of difficultyand of interest in various readingmaterials in “What Makes a BookReadable.”A significant work in theoreticalmusic is a “A Theory of Modula¬tion; Eine Modulations theorie” bythe pianist and composer, ThorvaldOtterstrom. Peter Hagboldt, pro¬fessor of German, has written “Lan¬guage Learning: Some ReflectionsFrom Teaching Experience;” andfrom two members of the staff ofthe Oriental institute, Thorkild Jac¬obsen and Seton Lloyd, comes thebook, “Sennacherib’s Aqueduct atJerwan.”Book for Adult Education“What Makes a Book Readable”is written from the viewpoint of theadult and will be of particular valueto librarians, teachers and directorsof adult classes, writers, publishers,and other persons interested in adult"■"^ncaMon. According to Dr. Leary, “The authors lay no claim to havinganswered the question conclusively.They have rather aimed, first: toopen up the whole problem of read-ibility as it pertains to the reader oflimited education; second, to studyintensively one small area of read-ibility commonly designated “ease”or “difficulty;” and, finally, to sug¬gest possible applications of the find¬ings to the work of defining, select¬ing, and preparing materials for dif¬ferent reading groups,Otterstrom’s book, containing Eng¬lish and German texts in parallelcolumns, is the first mathematical in¬terpretation of modulation, and theideas presented have been enthusias¬tically accepted by authorities onmusic theory. Dr. Frederick A.Stock, conductor of the ChicagoSymphony orchestra, has called thiswork “. .. . one of the most remark¬able achievements along the lines ofanvanced and progressive thought inmusical theory.”CLASSIFIED ADSLOST.

Morry Neiman does a goodjob on the third sack and rates wellas a batter.Mattrofsky GoodIn the reserve-freshman game lastweek Coach Norgren used threepitchers to win in seven innings 8to 7.Lead hurler was Joseph Mastrof-sky who pitched five innings of fineball. Big Paul Amundsen took overthe job in the sixth but showed hehad little control on the ball, walk¬ing 4. Roy Soderland then came overfrom first base and finished out thegame.Mastrofsky should do well as apitcher. He has a fine control on theball and enough speed to make himhard to hit. Amundsen has the pow¬er, but finds a good deal of troublein applying it at the right places, con¬tinuously throwing high.Arthur Dean carries most of thecatching, and may rate a varsity posi¬tion in times to come.Freshmen baseball practice of¬ficially ends tomorrow afternoon. We quote from the PrincetonAlumni weekly, May 10, 1935, “Atleast some alumni will regret thesigning of a home-and-home footballagreement with Chicago for 1937and 1938. Their opinion, perhaps aminority opinion, is that intersection¬al games tend too much toward thebarnstorming expeditions whichPrincetonians have been prompt tocondemn when the principals repre¬sented other institutions. Hus feel¬ing has nothing to do with Prince¬ton's regard for Chicago, which ishigh.” That last sentence takes thesting out of the intimation that anintersectional game with Chicagomight be a barnstorming tour....but we hesitate to believe that theeditor of the Princeton AlumniWeekly was speaking for anythingBIG TEN COACHESMEET TOMORROWAT ANN ARBOREight Women SwimWay to Honor TeamEight women won their w’ay tothe University honor swimming teamas a result of the women’s meet fin¬ished Tuesday. Elizabeth Scott, Pat¬ricia Weeks, Gregory Pennybaker,Emily Peterson, and Louise Hannahcomprise the team, with Alice De-Blois, Ruth Eddy, and Helen Staun¬ton as substitutes.The sophomore team won the meetwith a total of 9014 points. Division¬al ,swimmers placed second.

Big Ten coaches assemble at AnnArbor tomorrow for the quarterly jmeeting of the conference coaches, jThe current meeting ■will be held in iconjunction with the Western Con- jference Track and Field Champion- iships tomorrow and Saturday.Football coach Clark D. Shaugh- inessy, Ned Merriam, track coach, jand T. N. Metcalf, director of iAthletics, will compose the Chicago :delegation. The chief matter to bediscussed will be the drafting of the1937 football schedules. It is defin¬itely understood that Chicago andMichigan will renew grid relationsin 1937 and 1938.It is expected that the gi-oup willconsider future plans for the Big |Ten. Proselyting fall into this cate¬gory of subjects that may be dis¬cussed. Some of the Big Ten insti¬tutions feel that others in the Con¬ference have gone too far in the col¬lecting of football athletes.Women’s Golf MeetAll women golfers are invited tocompete in an all-University tourna¬ment at Cog Hill Monday.

While some of theundergraduates of the Easternschool may be dis-interested or evenexpressly dis-like any travellinggames, we have yet to see membersof the athletic teams themselves ex¬press too-much dissatisfaction at theprospect of a trip, particularly afootball trip with the attendant galaatmosphere of a fall grid game. Thealumni groups like to have memoriesrecalled, and if even for just an af¬ternoon, mid-western alumni of theNew Jersey university can see theirteam, the “barnstorming” venturewill not be in vain. MAROON BALL SQUADSTILL HAS A CHANCEFOR PART OF TITLEAfter dropping the heartbreakerto Northwestern Tuesday, hopes ofthe varsity baseball team for a con¬ference championship this year tooka decided drop. But the team stillhas a chance for a part of the title.While the fans were getting theirthrills at Greenwood field Tuesday,the mini were being upset by Pur¬due at Lafayette. This means thatIllinois is not in possession of a clearchampionship, for if the Maroons con¬quer the Wildcats at Evanston onFriday they will be tied with Illinois.Ohio State ProblemBut there is another complicationwhich bobs up. Ohio State has along conference schedule this year,twelve games in all being carded.Having four more to play, if theywin all of their games they will bein the clear for a crown. They havealready played eight, and have wonfive.Minne.sota, who have been cloud¬ing the .scene with a record of threewins to two losse.s, have only onemore game to play, and will not beable to equal the Illini record.PATRONIZETHE DAILY MAROON ADVERTISERS* i
