BURNETTEItaly Blasts Hopefor Four PowerNavalAgreementLONDON, Feb. 27—(UP)—Facedwith Italy’s refusal to sign a navaltreaty with powers enforcing Leagueof Nations economic sanctions againsther. Great Britain tonight proposed anew plan for salvagii.g the Naval Lim¬itations conference.Instead of pursuing apparentlyhopeless efforts to conclude a multi¬lateral treaty British conferencequarters indicated intention of con¬cluding identical bilateral agreementswith each naval power.The United States will be invited toinitial a separate accord with Britainwhile Germany, Russia, France andItaly will be asked to enter similarbilateral pacts.Provided that all pacts are nego¬tiated another general conferencewould be convened in the autumn tosign a general six years treaty effec¬tive January 1, 1937.Follows CompromisesThe proposed bilateral draft treat¬ies follow the lines of already accept¬able compromises providing for anannual exchange of building programswith fixed limits for the tonnage andarmament of each type of ship.Proposed is a building holiday forail types between 8,000 and 10,000tons and escape clauses to meet pos¬sible defiance of these limits by non¬treaty powers.It was believed the British sugges¬tion stands an even chance of meet¬ing a favorable reception in Washing¬ton.Although placing the British in akey position internationally as thepower with which all other nationswould initial the agreement it was be¬lieved the project diminishes Euro¬pean political obstacles now blockingb general accord.At the same time it would avoidU.

In addition tocomposing both words and music, thewriter, Martha Chauvet, is going tosing the song in the revue.Roy Soderlind, a sophomore, hascontributed two .songs to the produc¬tion, “The Girl I Want,” and “Sing aSong”. The former will be sung bySoderlind himself, and the latter bythe entire chorus.A special feature of the show willbe a septet called “Tallyho,” the lyr¬ics to which were written by NormanBridge Eaton.

The presentation is open to thepublic. Subjective poetry with a genuineappeal to the individual some daymight be classified as a part of the“Ransom school” of critical thoughtjudging from the defense that JohnCrowe Ransom, poet, critic, andguest Moody Lecturer from Vander¬bilt university, gave last night forthis style of literary art as opposedto the popular classical school whichsets up standards based on generalityand universality. Ransom lectured inMandel hall on the subject, “Poetryas a Form of Knowledge.”In strange contrast. Ransom readin conclusion three of his own selec¬tions which wavered between the twocategories of poetical thought, butdefinitely did not entirely fall into thebalance in his favor. These poems,“Captain Carpenter,” “Janet’s Awak¬ening,” and “Prelude to an Evening,”he admitted were not written to fol¬low his critical trend of thought.To make a poem genuine, the Van¬derbilt professor of English insistedthat the subject matter must dwellwithin the bounds on reason using ex¬amples that could be recorded as trueto life. For example, in poetry achild of ten months should be treatedas he is, a non-intelligent being, nota thinking intelligent-acting individ¬ual.“Too often, he continued, “a poetgratifies himself with subjective ex-Distribute Tags forPeace Conferenceon Campus TodayIt’s tag day for peace.As a publicity-money-making stunt,the Arrangements committee for theSecond Annual Peace conference isdistributing on the quadrangles todaytags bearing the legend “Attend thePeace Conference.” Proceeds fromthe sale will go toward financing theconference.Seminars to be held the second dayof the conference will take place in IdaNoyes during the afternon from 1to 3 and 3:30 to 5.

GOLDINGTHE DAILY MAROON, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 2S, 1936Page TwoDeputies PassFranco-SovietMilitary PactTreaty Tightens Ring ofAnti-Nazi Nations Sur¬rounding Germany.PARIS, Feb. 27—(UP)—The Fran¬co-Soviet mutual assistance pact,strongest link in the military chainbeing forged around Nazi Germany,was ratified 353 to 164 by the Cham¬ber of Deputies tonight.The treaty provides for immediatemutual military assistance in case ofan unprovoked attack upon the Euro¬pean territory of either power. Eachnation reserves the right to deter¬mine whether the attack w’as un¬provoked.Two main provisions of the treaty,however, are:1. Assistance only within the frame¬work of the League of Nations cove¬nant.2. Conformity with the Locarnotreaty, in which France, Britain,Germany, Belgium and Italy mutuallyguaranteed the peace of WesternEurope.Defensive UnionThe treaty makes Russia andFrance the pillars of a defensive unionincluding Rumania, Jugoslavia,Czechoslovakia, Turkey, Bulgaria andGreece. All together, these states arecapable of mobilizing 30,000,000 sol¬diers and 8,000 fighting planes.The final speech prior to ratificationwas made by former air MinisterPierre Cot, who said the French Gen¬eral Staff is convinced of the tremen¬dous strength of the Russian armyand that the red air force is the“strongest in the world.”Cot asserted that Russia has 3,000modern first line planes, while im¬provement plans for the French airforce call for France to have only1,000 such planes.Russians PowerfulCot pointed out that a Soviet squad¬ron of 97 planes recently succeededin transporting an entire infantry de¬tachment—a feat which no other airforce so far has achieved.In a previous meeting with the cab¬inet, Premier Albert Sarraut had de¬cided to ask a vote of confidence forhis govemmentj on the ratificationissue. However, the Chamber sud¬denly and unexpectedly voted rati¬fication.Sarraut was seated on the govern¬ment bench in the Chamber when thetreaty was ratified. After the votehe jumped to his feet and demandedthe action be annulled and that a newvote including the question of confi¬dence be taken. The president ofChamber, Deputy Bouisson, ruled anew vote was impossible.Left wing deputies, who had op¬posed ratification and were anxiousto bring the Sarraut government toa test, stormed angrily out of theChamber and through the corridors.FOUNDED IN 1901MemberUnited Press AssociationAssociated Collegiate PressThe Daily Maroon is the official studentnewspaper of the University of Chicago,published mornings except Saturday, Sun¬day, and Monday during the autumn,winter and spring quarters by The DailyMaroon Company, 6831 University avenue.Telephones: Local 46 and Hyde Park 9221and 9222.The University of Chicago assumes noresponsibility for any statements appear¬ing in The Daily Maroon, or for any con¬tract entered into by The Daily Maroon.All opinions in The Daily Maroon arestudent opinions, and are not necessarilythe views of the University administra¬tion.The Daily Maroon expressly reservesthe rights of publication of any materialappearing in this paper.

Italian Army SeizesStrategic Gaela Passon Northern FrontASMARA, ITALIAN ERITREA.Friday, Feb. 28—(UP)—Troops ofthe Third Italian Army corps have ex¬tended their hold on the strategicallyimportant Gaela Valley by occupyinga pass 13 miles west of Gaela village,it was announced officially early to¬day.The pass dominates several caravantrails in the southern Tembien sec¬tion, leading to the important Ethio¬pian base at Socota.The pass w'as occupied by camel-mounted columns, seeking further en¬circlement of troops commanded byRas Kassa Sebat and Ras Siyoum,still entrenched in the western sectionof the Tembien region.Occupation of the pass also shutsoff the possibility of the Ethiopiansestablishing further lines of communi¬cation with Socota.Simultaneously, it was announced,troops of the first army corps ad¬vanced slightly beyond the occupiedzone around Enderta, captured twoweeks ago after the most sanguinarybattle of the war in which 20,000Ethiopians were killed or wounded.The advance was towards AmbaAlagi, Ethiopian mountain stronghold.Congress SendsBill to PresidentMacNair ViewsJapanese Coupas War Threat(Continued from page 1)nineteenth century and until 1931,European civilization was relied on.“Since 1931, reaction has occurred inthe other direction. Everything bestis to be found in Japan, the divinecreation of the gods. Japanese thinkthey have assimilated all \Ve.stern cul¬ture has to offer, and that they pos¬sess the highest civilization.” Thisculture consciousness of the Japanesepeople has been particularly notice¬able since Japan’s withdrawal fromthe League of Nations in 1932 and1933.Group Conflict“A third basic principle of Japanesehistory manifest in the present crisisis conflict between the military andthe civilian groups. In general themilitary groups are for expansion,and desire a Japanese Empire whichwill include Russian territory east ofLake Baikal, English Asiatic posses¬sions, and the Philippines. Absorptionof the Philippines during the next tenyears will be easy now that the Unit¬ed States has abdicated formal pos¬session.” The civilian element, on theother hand, included the lately assas¬sinated premier, though he was anaval man and believed in gradual andgenerally peaceful progression andexpansion. “In the latter part of thenineteenth century and up to 1931,civilian factions were growing morepowerful at the expense of the mili¬tary,” continued Professor MacNair,a situation which was upset by thearmy invasion of Manchuria, whichprobably occurred without consent ofthe civilian cabinet. “The militarysince that time has demanded a freehand on the continent and amplefunds, and refusal of these led to theassassinations of 1932 and this pa.stweek.” If the Japanese military hasnow gained complete control, theremay be belligerent attacks on eitherEngland, Russia, or the United States,as all have been attacked orally inthe past.Professor MacNair indicated thata really fundamental problem in¬volved is Japan’s population pressure.“Having a natural increase of 800,000per year, and claiming to have reachedthe best use of land already possessed,she is faced with a great problem.There are three possible solutions:emigration, which other nations willnot permit; industrialization, whichwas commenced during the world war,and which permits a larger ratio ofpopulation to land, but which is op¬posed by the militarists; and conquest,the method of the militarists, who,fanatically proclaiming the divinityof the Emperor, hope possibly to ex¬tend his rule over the entire world.” (Continued from page 1)the government’s ideas about preserv¬ing soil fertility.The practical effect of this powerwill be to control crop production on anational scale in accordance with theNew Deal’s program for raising farmprices and purchasing power.Under the AAA Wallace enteredinto written contracts with farmerscalling for specified sums in consider¬ation for specified acreage reduction.The new law gives him discretion asto payments without contracts.Wallace has not yet announced ex¬actly on what basis he will make pay¬ments. His department has beenworking at top speed to perfect ad¬ministrative details of the program.An announcement is expected soon.Indications point strongly towardestablishment of definite percentagesfor cuts in the national crop, withfarmers expected to conform.Thus if Wallace decides the cottoncrop should be cut 25 per cent, a100-acre cotton farmer would be ex¬pected to plant only 75 acres if hehopes to get government benefits; ifa 20 per cent reduction is fixed forwheat, the farmer with 100 acres inwheat normally would grow only 80this year.Italians Refuse to Treatwith Sanctionist Powers(Continued from page 1)ed after Italy’s refusal to enter a fourpower pact at this time, thus blast¬ing all hope for a general accord.Although the Italian delegates in¬tend to remain in London for a fewdays, their active participation in fur¬ther naval negotiations is consideredterminated.BY POPULAR DEMAND . . .OrchestraL HallSundayMarch 1st3:30 P.

The French uprising was thecreation of the masses who acted interms of liberal symbols. Althoughless clear at the moment, the Japanesemovement is the work of militantminorities who function in terms ofnational symbols. Liberalism meansdemocracy; militant nationalismmeans fascism; they can mean noth¬ing else.It has been known for some timethat Japan was a fascist state. Re¬cent events have demonstrated theworking of that fascism. And yetreports of conditions are stated interms of a movement (French revolu¬tion) that elicits from us favorableemotional responses. We do not meanto imply that there is any organizedattempt to gloss over the Japan up¬rising (for we realize that Japanis considered as the rival in the Paci¬fic by our state department and cham¬ber of commerce alike); but we dowonder why it is that more has notbeen said about present day Japanas an illustration of the fascist philo¬sophy—why newspapers have notpresented the thing as a warning tothe people of the United States toshun the road of fascism and resistwith all the fury that hate can in¬spire any act that tends to lead tofascism.Can it be that the newspapers, intheir zeal to suppress what they callcommunism, have already become sotolerant of fascist philosophy thatthey do not care to attack it? Itis this that horrifies us.R. W.

Letters tothe EditorGOD’S DUCKSLetter to the Editor,Dear Mr. Nicholson;One of God’s gentlemen who liveson the southwest corner of 57thstreet and Woodlawn avenue need notbe told that while there are manyreferences in the Bible to Jesus’lambs, there are no references toJesus’ ducks. Perhaps this unhappycircumstance can be changed at thenext convention of theologians. Forthe nonce, would the gentleman ofGod please display Christian virtueby clearing his walks of snow (whichlater melts into water) that some ofthe lambs might endure for a whilelonger this vale of sorrow. We lambsft.ee enough perils in life without theimminent risk of drowning as we walkby said residence.On behalf of Local 467, LambUnion, I inscribe myself.Yours for a better world,Sidney Hyman.Students to OpenSecond CooperativeVenture on CampusBecause of the success of their firstcooperative enterprise, K i m b a r khouse at 58th and Kimbark avenue,William Moore, a student of the Chi¬cago Theological seminary, and agroup of others are preparing to openanother institution of the same typeat the beginning of next quarter.

Sharpless HickmanGeorge Gershwin has composed for“Porgy and Bess” a score that is thelogical outcome of the musical trendhe has exhibited during the past 15years. Those who expect anythingdifferent from his earlier works asfar as melodic or orchestral conser¬vatism goes will be horribly disap¬pointed by “Porgy.” It is definitely ajazz opera, and at times its hideouscacaphony transcends the bounds ofeasy auditory assimilation. Primarilyrhythmic rather than melodic; per¬sistently, rather than consistently, per¬cussive; it goes, like Vachel Lind¬say’s poem:“ ’Rattle-rattle, rattle-rattle,Bing.Boomlay, boomlay, boomlay, BOOM,’A roaring, epic, rag-time tuneFrom the mouth of the CongoTo the mountains of the Moon...”But Gershwin’s music for “Porgy,”while having the terrifying disson¬ance of the intensified jazz idiom, alsohas the primitive Negroid melodicfervor that is so epitomized by “TheCongo.”Three people will see three differ¬ent things in “Porgy.” Those lookingfor music as it is represented by eventhe most modern of operas will findthis one gruesomely distasteful. Thoselooking for a representation in musicof the Negro spirit will find in thisthe most understanding musico-dram-atic exposition of Negro life; an operawhose mixture of the jazz idiom withmelody has been done by a person whohas projected himself, as far as pos¬sible, into the state of mind of thedown-south Negro, and seen theirmixture of music and rythm in dailylife.The third person, who goes to eval¬uate each of these qualities againstthe other, will find that, all in all,the opera marks a definite step for¬ward on the road of union betweenmusic and drama. I can see no singlefactor to uphold the opinion of thosewho feel the music does not fit thespirit of Heyward’s drama. Gershwinhas inimitably adapted the “shouting”and the polyphonic rhythmic prayer ofthe Gullah negro into his score in sucha way as to intensify the dramaticforce.But Gershwin’s melodies, while fulland free, are broken by spoken de¬clamation and though this undoubt¬edly aids the dramatic quality, it alsointerferes destructively with thesometimes sophisticated melodic line.Overpowering in its intrusion on thethematic thread is the torturing effectof thundered tympani and tootedtrombone. It is because of these over¬exercised Gershwin eccentricities thatthis opera cannot be hailed as a trulygreat contribution to American (orany other) operatic literature. Andthough ear-splitting percussion andbrass may be justified by their charac¬teristic place in Negro music, never¬theless, to quote the words of my Yalecolleague, no score should be “stuffedwith meaningless elaboration of in¬tricate jazz rhythms at the expense ofthe melodic line.”Blake hall party, YWCA room from4 to 10.Mortar Board tea.

Of the Big Tenschools in the district, only three haveentry blanks on file, includingIndiana, Northwestern and OhioState. Notre Dame also has enteredher flashy top-form five in the inter¬national event.♦ * *Out of the fracas of University ofWisconsin athletics comes an efforttoward clearing the tangle. Accord¬ing to indications made by Wisconsinpapers, Guy Sundt will succeed Dr.Meanwell as the Badger’s athleticdirector while Pat Holmes, athleticdirector at the Oak Park High School,is doped to succeed Spears as headfootball coach. The appointment ofSundt according to all sources hasappeased all the w'arring factions atthe Wisconsin school and he lookswith favor upon the selection ofHolmes as coach. Neither can be offi¬cially elected until early in Marchwhen the board of regents of theUniversity meets again.♦ ♦ ♦In the winter pre-season practices, |Maroon diamond men have beenrather fortunate in the matter of de¬moralizing pre-season injuries. For jthe past eight weeks, the nine hasbeen training carefully and has elim¬inated practically all indications of“dead arms” and “charleyhorses”. A1Hoffman, a highly promising lefthanded twdrler, is laid up temporari- ‘ly with an infected foot and FrankVanek, last season’s utility infielder,has lost some practice sessions becauseof an injured arm. Other than thatthe whole squad has kept the injurychart clean and is looking forward tospring outdoor practices which willbegin early next quarter with the firstgame on the card turning up on April10 with Armour.« * «Tank Coach McGillivray faced some¬thing of a problem last week afterthe Maroon-Wildcat water polo tangle.After tying the Purple squad in Bart¬lett pool, the Maroons played twoovertime periods in an unsuccessfuleffort to break the deadlock. Then Mc¬Gillivray brought out the rule booksince some of the Maroon tankers hadideas about the Washington prom.However, the rule book only in¬creased his difficulties, for therein wasfound, “No water polo game shall endwith a tied score. Extra periods shall jbe played until one of the teams'wins.” But, “In case of a tie at the |end of the game, no more than two jovertime periods shall be played”, jsort of complicated things. Result: jthe game will be replayed here onMarch 4 and the Maroon swimmersgot to the Washington prom.4c « )|cAdd quandaries—During all thesub-zero weather skating has consti¬tuted a major part of the University’sextra-curricular exercise. Everythingwent smoothly until the weather mandeclared a dividend along with somewarm weather. After the Wednesdaythaw, the athletic department weresomewhat surprised to find that thewater pipes leading to the rinks werefrozen during the warm weather. Yes¬terday the pipes were dug up andthawed out but the department is stillwondering.« # *According to Mark Peterman, coachof the 193.') state prep championshipSpringfield cagers, prediction of theoutcome of any of the state tourna¬ments is practically impossible. Theconsistent unevenness of Illinois prepteams during the present cage seasonadded to the fact that most of themhave been “inners” and “outers” allduring the campaign makes the out¬come of the .state tourneys uncertain.And in the selection of the new threesecond rule, he also adds that it hasmade more difference to high schoolsquads than to college cagers, sincefor one reason that college floors aremore or less uniform and high schoolcourts are not. The adoption of therule also adds to the value of thehome floor to any team. ThincladsMeetPurdue SquadSeek First Conference WinTomorrow • After Hawk-eye Loss.Seeking their first win of the con¬ference season. Maroon trackmen playhost to Purdue tomorrow at the fieldhouse. The Midway team stands agood chance of balancing the one lossto Iowa with a victory over the Boil¬ermakers according to Coach NedMerriam.High point man for the Maroonsshould be either John Beal or JayBerwanger. Both of these men areentered in three events. John willrun both the low and high hurdles andwill participate in the high jump.Jay will represent Chicago in theshotput and the 60-yard dash. Mer¬riam has not yet decided whether toenter Berwanger in the polevault ornot.Hurdle FavoriteIn the 70-yard hurdles, Beal is thefavorite to win for Chicago. Purdueis not expected to give him muchcompetition. However, the race shouldbe featured by a close finish betweenBeal and Newman, Chicago’s otherentry in the hurdles. Just the otherday Newman tied Beal’s time in thehighs when he made :"09.1 in practice.The meet record in the 440 of :50.8is expected to fall. Both Ellinwoodand Halcrow of the Maroons havealready bettered that mark. Ellin¬wood along with Tipshus will alsobe entered in the half mile.! The Maroon height men in the polevault will be Steele, Abel, and Ball¬inger besides Berwanger. Kovak andBeal are the high jumpers whileLeach and Smith will run the 2-milegrind. Tentatively, the mile relayteam will consist of Wasem, John¬stone, Webster, and Halcrow.Phi Gams Win TeamChampionship in I-MWrestling TournamentAlthough the finals of the 165 poundand heavyweight divisions of the in¬tramural wrestling meet have yet tobe completed, when the finals in theother classes were finished yesterdayafternoon Phi Gamma Delta was sofar ahead in team scoring that theteam championship was awarded onthe basis of their 33 points gainedthroughout the meet.The best bout of the afternoon wasnot one of the final matches, but thesemi-final scrap between big MerritBush and Clarence Wright, varsitytackle. With more than 400 poundsof brawn in the ring at once, specta¬tors saw a battle as Wright finallymanaged to pin his larger opponent.In the first three weight divisionsDunn, unattached; Foord, Psi U.; andCollias defeated their opponents tobecome intramural title-holders intheir respective weight classes. BobKessel, Phi B.D., was too experiencedfor Seren, unattached, in the 145 lb.bracket and downed him in the finals.Delaney, Phi Delt, was too fast forhis opponent in the 155 lb. class, butcould only win on a decision. In the175 lb. division Dick Englehart, PhiGam. downed Dick Ferguson, PhiDelt on a fall.Monday the finals in the 165 lb.class will be held between Tully, Al¬pha Delt, and Whitney, Phi Delt.Wright, Psi U. and Thomas, Deke, willfight it out in the heavyweight divi¬sion.Psi U Engages D.

Comparative scoresshow that the Delta U’s have advan¬ced to the finals by close games buthave exhibited a fine team play. ThePsi U’s have the edge when individ¬ual players are taken into account,but may be stopped by the strongD.U. defense.

However, he willhave to score 22 points to do it. Hehas scored 102 points in nine gamesand Kessler has scored 124 points inten tilts.Gordon Petersen has been showingup well at center in scrimmagesagainst the freshmen this week, andwill get the call to oppose Ed Stege,big Badger pivot man w’ho scored thewinning basket against the Maroonslast month.Ken Petersen, robust defensive ace,will attempt to improve his basket¬making against the Wisconsin team.Morrie Rossin, swift little guard, willfill the other post, in the absence ofthe injured Bob Fitzgerald.Matmen Engagemini inToughestMeet TomorrowThe hardest meet of the seasonlooms before the Maroon wrestlingsquad when it meets Illinois at Ur-bana tomorrow. Conference championslast year, the Illini have a team ofveterans which includes three 1935Big Ten champions.The Chicago team, w’eak in thelighter weight divisions, will have aterrific task to down Blum in the 118lb. weight class and Patitunsky, pres¬ent 126 lb. title holder. It will be upto the heavier Maroon men to win atleast three falls to upset the strongIllinois squad and win the meet.Bob FinXvall will be meeting someof his hardest competition this yearas he grapples with the Orange andBlue 145 pounder, Mclvoy, who wasconference champ last year but whomay be declared ineligible be’fore themeet with Chicago. Carter Butler, 155pounder, is doped to win his matchwith Citron of Illinois, but so far thisyear Butler has been nervous in thering.Fred Lehnhardt will find himselfpitted against his toughest opponentof the year when he faces Max Sil-verstein in the light heavyweight di¬vision. The Chicago sophomore hasgiven a good account of himself in hisbouts this season but will have allhe can do to handle last year’s bigconference champion.If the other matmen can break evenin their bouts, Chicago will stand achance for victory. The Chicagowrestlers scheduled to compete in themeet are: Tinker, 118 lb.; Barton, 126lb.; Bernhardt or Hughes, 135 lb.;Anderson, 165 lb.; and Giles, heavy¬weight. Fencers FacePowerful IlliniHome Squad Seeks Winto Clinch Big Ten Fenc¬ing Title.Eight Maroon fencers, leading theBig Ten, fence Illinois in the last dualmeet of the season at the fieldhouse,Saturday afternon at 2:30. A victorywill clinch the conference title.Captain Campbell Wilson will leadthe foilsmen, including Leland Winterand Jim Walters. Henry Lemon andGeorge Gelman will wield the epee,and Louis Marks, Irving Richardson,and Ned Fritz will flash the sabreblades.A victory over the Illini, last year’sconference champions, would be a fit¬ting conclusion for Wilson, VV’inter,Gelman, and Marks, seniors. Wilsonis the chief hope for Chicago. Heis undefeated in conference competi¬tion this season.Chiprin UndefeatedIllinois’ captain, Bill Chiprin, isWilson’s big barrier. He is Big Tenfoils champion, and is also undefeatedthis year. Silverman, Fishback, Kap-lin, and Green are other Illinoisswordsmen.Winter has won ten of his twelvefoil bouts this year, and Walters hasalso won a majority; therefore Chi¬cago hopes to lead in the foil event.In epee. Lemon has lost only onebout. Gelman has won two-thirds ofhis tilts, including one over Gillies,conference champion in epee.Marks has an enviable record insabre, having swept his last fourbouts. Richardson has won half hissabre conflicts, and Fritz has wonboth of his.The opponents stand second in theconference, and have three bouts, in¬cluding this one, in which to raisetheir average. But the Maroon leadwill be insurpassable if Chicago winsthis, its fifth straight and last meet.Yearling Cage SquadLooks Promising asPractice Nears CloseWith only one more week of fresh¬man basketball practice remainingCoach Kyle Anderson has alreadywhipped together a fast team thathas produced several good prospectsfor next year’s varsity squad. Thisyearling squad has turned out to bea good combination of speed coupledwith height.Among the six footers of the com¬ing Maroons stars of the future areDick Lounsbury and Marsh Burch.Bob Cassels is just under the six footmark. Jack Mullins and Paul Can¬non are not as tall as the others butmake up for this with plenty of speed.Lounsbury is especially good on theoffensive being a sure shot with eitherhand. Marsh, who is a streak on hisfeet feet, fits righf in with CoachNorgren’s fast breaking system.Small but speedy is Mullins who maybecome the successor of Bill Lang.On the defensive side of the game.Cannon and Cassels are especiallynoted for their ability. However theplayers who have been improving rap¬idly and are getting better with eachscrimmage are Richardson, Mahoney,Frick, Bondhus, Lytle, and Miriam. End First Round inTable Tennis MeetWith the first round of the tabletennis tourney completed, the seededplayers are still all holding their own.However in two matches, the favor¬ites were pressed all the way. Thesecond round ends Monday.J. Krietenstein was forced the limitin both of his games against A. Kav-var. In each game the score was 21-18. 0. Entin had little trouble in his first game wilh J. Meyers but thelatter made a strong bid in the sec¬ond tilt only to be nosed out 21-19.G. Jacobs, T. Weiss, H. Greenberg,E. Cannon, and G.
