The lord mayor ofLondon was informed telegraphical¬ly by the new king, Edward VIII,formerly Prince of Wales, that hisfather was dead. This message wasthe first to be signed “Edward.”King Edward, the Duke of York,heir presumptive to the throne, andLord Wigram, King George’s secre¬tary, early today discussed funeralplans for the dead sovereign.It is probable that King George’sbody will be taken to London bytrain to lie in state at Westminsterabbey and that after funeral serv¬ices, he will be interred at Frog-more, where the family vault is lo¬cated.A short service will be held inSandringham church at noon today.The king frequently attended serv¬ices in this parish church.There is little doubt that the un¬ceasing round of events celebratingthe silver jubilee of King George’sreign last summer hastened theking’s end. It is w’ell knowm thatever since his 1928-29 illness, theking has been a semi-invalid onwhom the greatest attention andcare was lavished.STEPS TO KINGSHIPPrince of Wales MustFollow Formal Procedure(CopyriKht. 1936, by United Press)LONDON, Jan. 20 — Technicalsteps necessary before the Prince ofWales succeeds his father to becomeKing Edward VIII follow:1.

Defender of the Faith,and Emperor of India.”The Prince of Wales stepped intothe role that destiny and birth haddesigned for him.He is the most popular man amongthe 500,000,000 persons who swearallegriance to the British flag. If thew'ords of another great Briton, thelate Rudyard Kipling, Edward ofWales “could walk with kings norlose the common touch,” and it isthat attribute that endears him tohis subject.Revived EmpireBefore the World W’ar he was aiiigh spirited boy who made the worldhis playground, moving through Eu¬rope and the Americas as a pleasure-loving youth without a care in theworld. The sight of slaughter andruin on the western front made aman out of Edward of Wales, andafter the w'ar he began to live up toj the motto on his crest, “Ich Dien”—i I Serve.If Kipling was the poet of em¬pire, Edward of Wales was its sales¬man. Economists say he did more jthan any other Briton to bring the jj empire back from the brink of theI world’s worst depression. He touredI everywhere, preaching the gospel ofI “Buy British” and laying a path ofI good will on which English manu¬facturers could trod to prosperityby selling their products across thesea.

Statesmen will resist thesetemptations to demagogy’—politicianswill yield.“My third observation,” Frankconcluded, “I give with two conting¬ent qualifications. If the Rooseveltadministration intends a sweepingcentralization of power in Washing¬ton, and if the Republican party op¬poses this policy, without a programfor industrial employment stimula¬tion or stabilization or agriculturalprosperity—political future will notbe determined in 1936, no matterwhich party wins.”Italian Army Advanceson Southern FrontROME, Jan. 20—(UP)—Italy’srelentless offensive on the southernfront of Ethiopia, in which 11,000Ethiopians have been killed orwounded since January 12, continuedtoday with the Italians pursuingtheir enemy like big game.The war office announced that theRoman eagle has been pushed for¬ward nearly 145 miles from Dolo,recent scene of the most importantbattle since hostilities commenced.January 22, 1936—8:15 P.

Michigan Ave., Chicago Letters tothe EditorTHE PROGRESSIVE UNIONEditor Daily Maroon,Dear Mr. Nicholson,“Saay! That war cartoon the Chi¬cago Progressive union has on itsposters looks pretty red to me.What’s happened to the group any¬how?” And that seems to be thetypical remark regarding the Unionfor the past month. Perhaps somepast history might serve to clear upthe misconceptions current on cam¬pus in regard to the group.The Chicago Progressive unionwas organized in May, 1935 withthe avowed intention of drawing to¬gether the 80 or 85% of the studentsw’ho were liberal in their thoughtand had had little experience withactual social problems. By meansof lectures, discussion groups, andpolitical action for those who wn.shedit, the members felt they would beable to carry out their program of:1. Pre.senting all points of view’.2. Defending freedom of speech. 3,Going forward to progressive socialaction in accordance with the prin¬ciples of democracy.The attitude of the .students to-w’ards the Union was extremely in¬teresting—the ‘rights’ called it radi¬cal and the ‘lefts’ dismissed it asw’ishywashy. Actually, of course, itw’as attempting to do what the new’American Student union may do—fuse the socially conwious groups atthe University together for more effective action. The Chicago Pro-gressive union will cooperate wher¬ever possible to achieve this end.However, this fact will not meanthat the Union as such will cease tofunction. The National Forum coun-cil has prepared a series of lecturesfor the group during which manynoted speakers will appear at theuniversity. In line with our programof ‘presenting all points of view,’the Union is bringing the ChicagoRepertory Group, producers of Clif¬ford Odets’ Waiting For Lefty andthe Hearsterical Follies to Interna¬tional House on February 7 in anamusing, fast-moving revue called IfThis Be Reason.Jeanette Okner, Secretary, CPU.Phone for fresh eggs and milk-fed poultry.

Such capital¬ization seems to us to be absolutelywithout reason. Wet get along as wellwithout it. But it is a tradition forthe Germans, and they do not changethe process. Likewise, we, ourselves,have through fortuituous circum¬stances inherited most of this sys¬tem of capital letters. Die deutscheLange has too many capitals, butwhy have any capitals at all?In “A Corner for Readers,” in theMaroon of January 16, there was atreatment of how we have receivedby accident an inefficient systemwherein there are two forms forevery letter of the alphabet. Thissystem is a relic of the days beforethe printing press when monks orna¬mentally copied and re-copied exist¬ing literature.The article explains the groutwaste, estimated in millions of dol¬lars, which is entailed by havingevery linotype machine and type¬writer contain almost twice as many |figures, every child learns to writeand read twice as many letters as jnecessary, every news writer looks up |when to capitalize ‘‘school of Art.” jWere it not for this waste, therewould of course be no objection tothe system.* * *It is obvious that the passing ofcenturies may see us still using cap¬itals. It is a commonplace that tra¬dition is powerful. Most people havenever noticed that we do not needcapitals—that the only real valueof capitals is decoration. Men wantto see their names capitalized, be¬cause they always have been capi¬talized and the process seems to lendprestige. But actually, there are onlya few instances in the entire Eng¬lish language in which the substi¬tution of a minuscule, instead of acapital, as the first letter of a wordwould cause ambiguity. The.se in¬stances can b® easily remedied. Forexample, the expression, UT, forTnited Press, could be changed tou p.* *(The next paragraph will omitcapitals to illustrate their lack ofutility.)because of this inertia of man.very few atUmipts have been madetoward releasing us from the com¬plex letter system, however, we havein this university a situation aboutas favorable as can be found for theintroduction of .«impler methods, thefaculty is notable for its lack of prej¬udice. the students are constantlyimpres.sed with the benefits of a sci¬entific attitude, the daily maroonhas been a progressive newspaper, ifthe proper results were collected, an *experiment by the daily maroon onthe omission of capitals should bebeneficial to society, such a trialmight last for a week, if no difficul¬ties aro.se.# * 4iMany may think it unwise for TheDaily Maroon to meddle with suchseemingly trivial campaigns whencrucial issues are imminent. Itshould be understood that the omis¬sion of capitals would not impedethe work of the campus organ, butmight even be stimulating. The workof reporters, editors, linotypers, andproof readers .should be facilitated.P^xcept for obtaining facts concern¬ing the experiment, no extra troublewould be neces.sary. It is quite pos¬sible that important issues might de¬velop in complete independence fromthe trial. The running of the papershould be smoother, and not morecomplex.Such an experiment should incitenational intere.st.It is probable that headlines wouldretain the use of capitals, since thatmight be simpler in the short run.Other aspects of the program mightinclude criticisms by prominent fac¬ulty members. Even mathematiciansmight comment on whether theycould devise plenty of formulas with¬out the use of capitals.All this .seems possible in an en¬lightened community.—e. c. f.

Liccnr & Myzu Tobacco Co.)ONLY 31 MOREDAYS TILLTHEWASHINGTON PROMSwim, Cage Squads Drop WeekendEncounters; Matmen Teike WheatonIn spite of the 26 points amassedby Captain Bill Haarlow and BillLang, the Maroon basketeers wentdown before Michigan’s lofty quin¬tet, 51-33, Saturday night at AnnArbor.Chicago fell further from a possi¬bility of rising from the basement,since, with the exception of unfor¬tunate Minnesota, every Big Tenteam has won two games more thanthe Maroons, who have lost all fourconference tilts. As forecast earlyin the season, the Indiana fives arein the conference van, with theHoosiers one game ahead of theBoilermakers.Maroons Press WolverinesIn spite of the final score, the Ma¬roons kept almost up with Michiganuntil the closing minutes, the scoreat the half being 17-20. Haarlowscored consistently. His 16 points,which won high point honors, werescored from all angles—under, along¬side, and out from the basket.Michigan’s 51 points, the mostscored in recent games, were wellabove that team’s 37 point average.The Wolverines’ altitude superioritycounted heavily after Kendall Pe¬tersen was lost to the Maroons onpersonal fouls after the first ten min¬utes.Townsend Leads MichiganJohn Townsend led the victorswith his perfectly-synchronized pivotshots, scoring twelve points. Thewinners’ scoring was well distribut¬ed, many baskets being made by sub¬stitutes in the final period when theChicago varsity was tired.The Chicago guards again lackedscoring punch, inducing Coach Nel¬son Norgren to concentrate on thisfeature in practice yesterday.Amundsen, six-foot, six-inch center,also practiced shots yesterday, espe-pecially concentrating on pivot shotsafter the lesson taught by JohnTownsend Saturday.Swimmers Lose, 50-34After a closely fought battle lastSaturday in the Wildcat pool. Ma¬roon tankmen finally succumbed tothe Northwestern squad to a score of60 to 34. The Maroon water polosquad, however, downed the Purplesquad by a 6-5 score.The two outstanding mermen ofthis first Conference swim meet wereprobably Danny Zehr, Olympic backs-stroke of the Purple squad andChuck Wilson, captain of the Ma¬roons.In the first event, the 400 yd. re¬lay, Northwestern fought its way tovictory only after a dead heat bat¬tle. The official timing of this eventfor the Wildcats was 3:40.5: unof¬ficial time for the Maroon team wasvery close with 3:41. Horschke andBriggs of Northwestern placed firstand second respectively, while DickLyon garnered the third place in the200 yd. breast stroke and Bob An¬derson and George Trenary placesecond and third in the 150 back-stroke.Jay Brown of the Maroons wasthe first to splash to a first place victory in the 60 yd. free style.Zehr by clever swimming, took 1stplace honors from Wilson in the 440yd. free style. Bill Lewis gained sec¬ond place in the 100 yd. free style.The fancy diving saw Stauffer ofthe Maroons take first place andcaptain Wilson churned up 1st placehonors in the 220 yd. free styleevent.Three StraightA Maroon wrestling squad won itsthird straight meet last Friday inBartlett when it downed a Wheatonsquad 21-13. The Chicago team wonfive out of the eight matches, losingone on a forfeit.Fred Lenhardt, Maroon sophomorein the 175 pound class, broke Capt.Malmquist’s record of victories whenhe downed the Wheaton man in 9:41.Malmquist was undefeated last yearand is one of the strongest men inthe Little Nineteen.The Maroons dropped their twobouts when Currens of Wheaton wona decision from Tinker in a littleover nine minutes and when heavy¬weight Bob Wheeler of Chicago wasdefeated by Johnson.Tom Barton, Maroon 126 pounder,put a double wrist lock on Claderto take the fall in 8:29. Mike Brou-sil then won a decision from Pettof Wheaton; and Butler, wrestlingfor Chicago, took 3:35 to garner avictory over Merritt. Bob Finwall,Chicago sophomore, had a compar¬atively easy job in putting Hirsch’sshoulders to the mat in 3:48.The mat team wiU open their con¬ference competition Saturday at 8in Bartlett when it meets Minnesota. Swordsmen toHold SpecialMeet SaturdayMaroon swordsmen will have ahard time keeping their balance Sat¬urday night when they meet the Uni¬versity of Cincinatti and probablyGeorge Washington university of St.Louis in Bartlett gymnasium in a spe¬cial encounter.Coach Robert V. Merrill, who hasbeen arranging the meet, expects ahard tussle. The University of Cin¬cinnati Bearcat predicts that Cin¬cinatti will defeat either Chicago orNorthwestern in meets this week-end.On the other hand, captain Camp¬bell Wilson, who has forced Washing¬ton stars, thinks the Maroons can de¬feat them, as well as Cincinatti.Three Way EncounterThis meet, if the St. Louis teamparticipates, will be one of the mostcolorful held here in recent years.It will be the only three-way meet onthe home schedule this year, althoughChicago faces Ohio State and No¬tre Dame at South Bend in the mid¬dle of next month.The Maroons, who easily defeat¬ed Armour Institute in their open¬ing bouts January 10, boast six let-termen. In addition to Wilson areLouis Marks, Leland W inter, andGeorge Gelman, seniors, and HenryLemon and Jim Walters, juniors.Nonlettermen added to the team in¬clude Irving Richardson, Leo O’Neill,and Ned Fritz.The Cincinatti varsity includesBotterel, Weismann, Captain Libe-cap, Barrishman, Lance, and Griffin.The reason for their optimism istheir victory over Purdue last week.

At the present bothteams have won both games played,and comparative scores offer no helpin predicting the eventual winner.Phi Psi, a dark horse this year, beata ragged Alpha Tau Omegafive 34-5; then the Phi Delis con¬quered the same aggregation 47-12.Psi Upsilon, 1935 champions, dom¬inate the Beta League. By scores of47-6 and 41-7 they have marched through the Zeta Beta Tau and PhiKappa Sigma teams. They shouldhave little trouble in heading theleague, unless stopped by the PttiSigma Delta quintet, a fast, smooth¬working aggregation that has down¬ed the Phi Kappa Sigma team 38-12.Phi Gams LeadThe championship of the Gammaleague is a matter of doubt. Atpresent Phi Gamma Delta is in firstplace, but either a rejuvenated Del¬ta Kappa Epsilon five or a SigmaChi team may come up from behindto cop the championship. The Sig¬ma Chi’s have won both of theirgames so far, and the Dekes have lostby very small margins.League StandingsAlpha leavnc w IPhi Kappa Psi -2 0Phi DelU TheU 2 0Delta Upsilon 2 0Alpha DelU Phi 0 2Alpha Tau OmeKS 0 2Kappa SiKina 0 2Beta leairue w IPsi Upsilon _...2 0Phi Sinma DelU 2 0Chi Psi 2 0ZeU BeU Tau 0 2Phi Kappa Siinna 0 2Beta TheU Pi 0 2Gamma Icairae w IPhi Gamma DelU 2 0Siirma Chi 2 0Phi Beta DelU 0 1Pi Lambda Phi - —.0 1DelU Kappa Upsilon 0 2Zeta leame w IPhi BeU DelU ‘‘B’’ 2 0Phi Kappa Psi "B" 1 0Phi SiKma DelU “B’ 1 1DelU Kappa Epsilon “B” 0 1DelU Upsilon "B” 0 2Sirma leacue w IPsi Upsilon "B" 2 0Phi DelU TheU "B” 1 0Chi Psi “B" 1 0SiKma Chi ''B” 0 2Alpha DelU Phi "B” 0 2“C” Dielsion w IPsi Upsilon “C" 1 0Phi SiKma DelU “C“ 0 1Phi DelU TheU "C” Haarlow LeadsConference forScoring HonorsAfter marking up sixteen pointsin the Michigan tilt at Ann Arborlast Saturday, Captain Bill Haarlowof the Maroons seems to bid fair torepeat his feat of last year—that oftaking the Big Ten’s crown for highindividual scoring honors.Haarlow pressed Warren Whit-linger, Ohio State’s stellar forw’ardfor the week’s high after the In¬diana meeting last week with Whit-linger topping him only by twopoints. With Haarlow’s sixteenmarkers in the Wolverine game, hemanaged to eke out a four point leadover Whitlinger, who collected onlyeleven points in the Hawkeye meet¬ing.Bill Lang, the Maroon’s hard fight¬ing forward, jumped into the highscorers’ column after the Michiganmeeting by collecting an additionalten points.
