BrUf illaroonUNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 18, 1936 Price 3 CentsLighting Inadequate Editorial survey of the library system. Ratherit will attempt to point out specificconditions in various libraries that Reveal ReeeiitDiseoveries inMedieal FieldsExperts on IlbuminationFind Substandard Inten¬sities in Libraries,By ALICE DENBY(Former Lighting Adviser, Com¬monwealth Edison Company)AS a first move in the MaroonL campaign for improving studycondition on campus, twomembers of the staff, together withR. V. Englund, commercial lightingadviser-of the Commonwealth EdisonCompany, toured the campus librar¬ies with a light meter, to test actualquantity of light. This instrument,if you are unfamiliar with it, con¬verts light into electricity throughthe medium of a photo electric cell,reversing the function of an electriclight bulb.In taking readings in late after¬noon in seven libraries, from Orien¬tal Institute through Eckhart, Cul¬ver, and Jones to the College (Cobb)library, Harper, and Law, we foundreadings as low as three foot candles.Fifteen foot candles is the minimumquantity for study light, and the rec¬ommended quantity is 35 foot can¬dles. Ordinary daylight is 200 footcandles, and sunlight registers 500.(Quantity vs. QualityThere is, however, a great differ-Students (iKseinhle for chance atbooks for overnight use in Cobb Li¬brary.ence between quantity, or intensity oflight, and quality, or lack of glare.For instance, Harper, which studentsmost complain about, we found toshow' above fkandard readings forquantity directly under the fixtures,but also the worst glare, and darkcorners w'ith substandard intensity.The Law library was another excel¬lent example of the importance ofquality, as the reading therp broughtout the importance of well-diffused“soft” light.Those who choose the darker corn¬ers in preference to sitting under thelight may take heart, since it is nat¬ural for young and strong eyes to Today The Daily Maroon turns its attention to the im¬provement of study conditions on the campus. It is obviousthat proper study conditions involve (1) proper materials forstudy; (2) proper places to study. After a survey of more thana month, The Daily Maroon is convinced that not only is theUniversity lacking in these facilities, but that a way can befound temporarily to alleviate the situation, and that a per¬manent program can and should be formulated, for the ever¬lasting benefit of our community of scholars.We wish to make clear, first of all, that the administration,from the Board of Trustees down, is not unaware of the prob¬lem. On the contrary, certain administrative officers have spentmuch of their valuable time in explaining the present situationto us, and in di.scussing ideas for its betterment. Our purpose,therefore, in presenting the matter openly, is to help clarifythe problem in the minds of all concerned, and especially, todevelop from the perennial gripes of students a more intelli¬gent discussion, which will be valuable to the administrationas it attempts to meet the problem.We present therefore in this issue, a summary of the vari¬ous aspects of the situation as we see it, with more articles tocome which will further amplify our point of view.The fields which we have attempted to investigate in rela¬tion to local study conditions are specifically: (1) lighting;(Continued on Page 2)prefer strain to more intense lightof poor quality. This does not mean,however, that measuring light is anyjoke.Conditions of StudyWhy must we take pains to havesuch good lighting conditions forstudy ? In answering this question,we note three main factors: (a)studying is largely done by artificiallight, and we have seen previouslythe tremendous difference betweenartificial and natural light; (b)studying involves seeing at a closerrange than man is naturally accus¬tomed to; (c) studying involves us¬ing the eyes intensively for long per¬iods of time.It is a matter of common knowl¬edge that countless students are forc¬ed to begin wearing glasses duringtheir college years, and it has beenfurther established by special inves¬tigation that the average time atwhich students begin wearing glassesis at the end of their second collegeyear. Certainly this situation mustbe attributed in part to bad lightingconditions in college libraries.Gothic Presents ProblemThe situation on this campus is adifficult one to cope with. The en¬gineering and architectural prob¬lems presented by Gothic buildingsare difficult ones to solve. For in¬stance, the little matter of the stonetracery in the tops of the Gothicwindows is very important when con¬sidering lighting, for this shuts offa large quantity of light. Most of thebuildings were constructed at a timewhen lighting engineering did noteven 'appi'oach being a science.The task of designing utilitarianlighting fixtures which will also fit in Bending loiv over books in the Ros-enwald library, with substandardlight intensity.with the chosen architectural schemeof the quadrangles is indeed difficult.It is my firm belief, however, thatthis goal can be accomplished.In future articles I shall furtherdemonstrate the importance of goodlighting, its effect on student ef¬fectiveness and health, and presenta detailed plan for better H'^Ltingfacilities in the libraries.Noise andCrowdingNot as important as lighting fromthe standpoint of permanent damageto health, but no less important thanlighting from the standpoint of studyefficiency are quiet and lack of crowd¬ing as criteria of library success.Since unlike bad lighting, noise andcrowding cannot be scientificallymeasured, this article will not be inthe nature of a complete objectiveFeature Football, Politics, Art inPhoenix Issue Appearing TodayBy JULIAN A. KISERPerhaps because of the paucity oftalent on the campus, the editors ofPhoenix themselves go to town in theNovember issue out today, pinch-hitting with at least two articles cal¬culated to create a considerable stiron the quadrangles. They are morethan likely to realize their aim.In keeping with the season, thegirdiron sport occupies a leadingplace in their attention. Part-timestudent Pete Dasnick makes his firstappearance as a Phoenix cover artistwith an attractive, cleverly executeddecoration appropriate to both thefootball and “Thanksgiving” seasons.Hyman and Reese collaborate on thefeatured article, “Virtue at AnyPrice,” a frank, thorough going anal¬ysis of the football situation on theMidway with four courses of actionsuggested as possible modifications ofthe University’s athletic policy. Theyclose with an emphatic statement ad¬vocating the most radical of theseprojected plans—that of ultimatecomplete withdrawl from the BigTen.Attacks Oxford OathHyman, apparently in an argumen¬tative mood this month, transfers histalents from football to politics inthe article, “Oath against Oath,' which he makes out a strong caseagainst the Oxford pledge. Timingit, as he has done, to come just beforethe ASU’s all-campus peace confer-♦^nce, he is certain to provoke a goodmany heated replies from our moreardent pacifists.

Hollow wooden floorscomplain creakingly whenever stu¬dents enter the side libraries.It is thus obvious that though noiseis man-made, the College librarynoise problem cannot be cured with¬out radical change in the presentquarters in Cobb. A librarian gave ashis unofficial opinion that the onlyway to remedy the noise problem isthrough provision of a student loungewhere College students can discussproblems, or references, or currentevents, or dates. More important asimmediate steps would seem to be(1) to place survey course offices out¬side the library; (2) to place rubbercarpeting over the entire libraryfloor; (3) to eliminate some of thechairs in the library so that fewerpersons could study or loaf there;(4) to treat talkers more strictly. Butcertainly the present College libraryhas outlived its usefulness; a newmodern library must be provided inthe near future. This need is recog¬nized by the University in its planfor a proposed College building to behoused near the Men’s ResidenceHalls and proposed Women’s Resi¬dence Halls on the south side of theMidway. To date lack of funds hasprevented the development.Law School LibraryThe Law library on the top floorof the Law School building is anotherwhere the noise pi’obJem has becomeacute. According to a law student,the principal source of noise is talk¬ing, permitted by the student helpwhich this year has replaced a per¬manent staff of librarians.In the main Harper reading room,talking is only a lesser source of ir-(Continued on page 3)Paris Returns AfterTwo Months’ IllnessEllsworth Faris, chairman of thedepartment of Sociology, has re¬turned to the campus after an illnessof several months.

I Science Academy MembersDiscuss Progress inDisease Fighting.Numerous revelations in sciencewere made public today during thesessions held in. Eckhart Hall andThe Oriental Institute as the Na¬tional Academy of Sciences wentthrough the second day of its three-day meeting here.An explanation of the mechanismby which the body fights lobar pneu¬monia was made by Dr. 0, Robert¬son, professor of Medicine, No ex¬planation of the mechanism for re¬covery from pneumonia has beenavailable before the scientist’s dis¬closure that large phagocyte cells“eat” up the pneumonococcus micro¬organism.Induce Spinal MeningitisProgress in the study of anotherdread disease was made by Dr. C.Miller, associate professor of Medi¬cine, who has developed a methodfor producing the infection of spinalmeningitis experimentally. He hasdemonstrated that ten organisms ofa virulent strain of the meningococ¬ci are sufficient to kill a mouse. This'work now opens the way to experi¬menters for the study of serums toexterminate the organisms.Dr. M. Henke, associate professorof Physiological Chemistry, disclosedthat the stomach is only ten per centefficient as a machine for producinghydrochloric acid, while the pancreasis no better in producing pancreaticjuice. From Dr. L. Dragstedt, pro¬fessor of Surgery, comes a more en¬couraging story of the pancreas.This scientist, who has achievedworld fame through his discovery ofa new hormone in the pancreas,brings to humanity the discovery ofanother hormone which will be of in¬estimable value in assisting diabeticpatients to return to a more normallife.Discredit Rickets CureProving that salts of citric and tar-tartic acid, while as effective as cod-liver oil in curing rickets, would haveto be used in such large quantities asto be impractical. Dr, B. Hamilton,professor of Pediatrics, threw awrench into the plans of manufac¬turers to use these chemicals insteadof codliver oil.An old belief has been given Scien¬tific credence by Dr. VV. Peterson ofthe University of Illinois College ofMedicine, who has proven that themonth of birth of a person does con¬tribute to his mental and physicalcapabilities. Dr. Peterson has shownthat the weather conditions at thetime of embryonic development de¬termine, to a large extent, how' theembryo will develop.Shedding light on the story of theearth’s development, a report of an(Continued on Page 2)Present AnnualFreshman Plays inReynolds TheaterThe annual Freshman plays will bepresented by the Dramatic associa¬tion tomorrow night in the Reynoldsclub theatre at 8:30.

Themajor obstacles are principally a physical heri¬tage of a plant designed more with an eye toarchitectural grandeur than to student use,and a much depleted University income. Toovercome these two obstacles involves exten¬sive long range planning and careful budget¬ing. We find a concrete sign of hope in the evi¬dent intention and ability of the administrationto do both.As for the more immediate obstacles to thebetterment of study conditions on campus, webelieve them to be for the most part thingswhich long ago would have been attended tohad they been brought to the attention of theproper authorities—minor grievances whichindividually considered are not worth complain¬ing about, but collectively considered deserveimmediate attention.Proper lighting in the libraries is the mat¬ter which .seems to us most deserving of imme¬diate attention. Lighting engineering has madegreat strides in recent years, and so has thestudy of the problems of vision. Students havelong unwittingly suffered from poor lighting.It is therefore time that they ask that the dis¬coveries of recent years be used for their ben¬efit.Another matter which seems to us to needimmediate clarification is the University’s pol¬icy of buying books. It is not for us to decidewhich lines this policy must follow; we simplypoint out that the policy is now confused, andthat this confusion results in considerable grief.Noise and crowding are as much, or more,the fault of the .students as they are of the sys¬tem, and to them we addre.ss a plea for betterobservance of the rules, and of the rights offellow students. Inasmuch, however, as thisplea that it do something to make such a pleais largely futile, we return to the administra¬tion with a plea that it do .something to makesuch a plea unnecessary. , J.G.M.The ABCsPhysiologists and BolsheviksPhysiologists.. .were incredibly akin to the Bol¬shevik rulers of Soviet Russia.. .Their aims and idealswere magnificent.. .but their methods were often dis¬tressing, not only to the subjects of their experiments...but to sentimental observers of their doings...Inboth cases (their) goal is the betterment of humanity,than which there could be no loftier aspiration. It maybe objected that vivisection of living animals is a .sadand dreadful thing, and it is true that the lot of kulaksand others who have opposed the Soviet experiment isnot a happy one, but again, in both cases, the sufferinginflicted is done with a noble purpose.Walter Duranty, / Write as I Please. The Travelling BazaarConducted by GEORGE FELSENTHALTHE PAUSE THAT REFRESHESDuring the stress and fierce competition of a BigTen grid battle come those humorous moments that givea welcome change to spectators and players alike. Sucha one was the Chicago kickoff after the touchdown Sat¬urday with about seven seconds left to play. Thespectacle of the kicker kicking the ball holder insteadof the ball is always good for a laugh. Almost asgood, in fact, as an official getting mixed up in a playand emerging with much dirt and a slight limp.There are lots of little incidents, too, that are notknown to the spectator. There is the report of a littlehorse-play in the Wisconsin game, for instance. Thosewho travelled with the team to Wisconsin will recallthe little note in the program telling about the largenumber of Dekes playing for the Maroons. It alsoseemed that most of the Badger athletes were Dekes.After a play in which he had carried the ball, SollieSherman was the first to get up. As he got to his feet,he reached down and gave the tackier a lift, saying,“Get up, Deke.”“Are you a Deke, too?” asked the Wisconsin player.“Sure, we all are,” replied Solly.MORE OF SAMEThen there is the story that reached us throughDon Elliott who got it through Bill Bosworth who play.snext to “Tubby” Wright in the line. In the Ohio Stategame “Tubby” was playing against the ugliest pugimaginable. For some time they glared at each otheras they came face to face waiting for the snap of theball. Finally, the ugly one looked up at Wright andexclaimed, “Jeez, but you’re an ugly guy.”STATE’S RIGHTS VIOLATIONSAfter all- of their hullabaloo about state’s rightsduring the election, the Worlds Greatest Newspaperseems to have forgotten all about it since. Saturdayevening Emmett Deadman and a friend from Virginiacalled up the Trib to find out some scores that theymissed on the radio. They asked about Pitt-Nebraskaand w'ere given the score. Then, to satisfy the Vir¬ginian, Deadman asked for the score of the VirginiaPolytechnic Institute-Virginia game. There was aslight pause, and then the cheery voice answered, “I’msorry we don’t keep track of high school games.”HIGHER EDUCATIONAll quarter he had been sitting midway in the backof the room during History 261 without adding muchbesides his presence to the class. And then one day inthe discussion of the prevalence of miracle stories inthe middle he arose to explain why so few people be¬lieve in miracles now as contrasted to mediaeval times.“Now,” he said, “we all have an education while thenvery few people had any learning. We all have a lib¬eral education; they didn’t know nothing.”.MYSTERIESThey continue to grow'—the campus mysteries.There’s the recent one pertaining to the second Com¬munist flag found on the pole early one morning. Noone knows who put it up, but the pole had to be takendown to get the flag down, the halyard being twisted.Then there’s the problem of who hit Essex Kendall.And now' we have it from good sources that a new“ghost” has been disturbing Beecher hall residents.This time he appears on the sidewalk in front of thehall, and all the efforts of the campus cops have been tono avail. What this campus needs is a good five-cent de¬tective.CORRESPONDENCE IN HUMANITIESWon’t you please turn around and just flash theboys at least one smile ? It is so seldom that we seeanything like you around that we may seem very queer,but can you blame a bunch of boys whose aestheticsenses have been starved by the typical Chicago goon?Maybe you could even consent to answer this andlet us know what your name is. If given the telephonenumber we can guarantee dates for the next twomonths.Please meet me! I am the boy on the end of thefourth row.

From the opening kick-off tothe final touchdown by svelte Remy Meyer, collegespirit prevailed.

A familiarcouple at the game was smooth, sophisticated, lovableNed Fritz and “secret passion” Jean Ann Volpel.Adorable Sam Whiteside, a real candidate for Fresh¬man queen, led Chicago’s delightful team in an unusualand charming group of plays. Ned Fritz another realcandidate for Freshman Queen, sat on the sidelines andcheered and cheered, yessir.George Antonie and Bob Fitzgerald, two delightfulJuniors who are becoming more charming as each weekslips by, seemed quite happy with cute, pert little Huff¬man in their arms. Gracious and charming, Huffmanis a real candidate for Freshman Queen.Some shining lights were adorable, adorable, ador¬able, cute, curly-haired Freddy Lehnhardt, who com¬bined with the ball to make punting well worth watch¬ing, and fascinating Sollie Sherman, and Harvey Law-son. Dark and handsome, adorable Lew Hamity wasmaking passes at pert Ken Petersen. They make analmost too, too perfect couple on the field and we thinksomething may come of this.

Chivalrous Chicagomanaged to throw away enough points to allow it’s Pinbearer, buxom Indiana (a real candidate for you knowwhat) to win the game.After all this festivity the campus is really ready tolook forward to the Illinois game.

In view of the factthat interest in Philosophy has ma¬terially increased among UniversityStudents in the last five years, andbecau.se of the further fact that manywork' in Philosophy are on reservebecause of the limited number avail¬able, much larger quarters than thepiesent mouse-trap room on the fifthfloor of Harper are needed, if stu¬dents are to study with elbow room.In Wieboldt Hall the library servesas a main passageway between Har¬per and Classics. The simple mat¬ter of laying a rubber mat down thecentral aisle would make for peaceof mind on the part of .students.PsychologyThe Psychology library is housedin one of the University’s ancientbuildings at 5732 Ellis Avenue. K.S. Yum, librarian in charge of thePsychology library, stated the ob¬vious: "Whenever someone walks upthe stairs, it is possible to hear himin the library.” Here again the per¬manent need is for a new psychologyhuililing and library; the temporaryneed is for a carpet on the stairs.The moral of this article is neitherclear nor complete. However, severalthings are plain.(1) There should be some sort ofa committee to investigate presentconditions of noi.se and crowding inCniver.'ity libraries.(2) Wherever possible, minor re¬forms making for major improve¬ments in efficiency should be made im¬mediately.(•d) .\ long range program shouldhe devi.sed aiming at elimination ofnoi.se and crowding conditions in Uni¬versity libraries.Service IsImportantService i.' a much used and muchmisused word. Used- as in the BoyScout motto “I serve” and as in thechain store cliche ‘‘Service with aSmile." .Misused insofar as to mo.stlieople the w'ord service implies novery clear idea.Nevertheless in analyzing the Uni¬versity libraries we have to considerthe intangible ‘‘.ser\’ice” as a veryreal criterion of success or failure.L’nder service we can include suchitems as the provision of adequatenumlrers of books, the provision ofthe right books, and the provision ofsmooth running mechanism for thedistribution of books. In analyzingthe library system as a collection ofbooks that are used, it will developthat the problem is less one of mak-in>i: specific changes in individual li¬braries than one of organizing theentire library system in a more ef¬ficient manner.College Library FailsIn service the College library againhas an unenviably bad reputation.I niversity women sleep over a lot ofknowledge, since part of the 10,000books assigned to the Cobb libraryoverflow from its shelves into thebasements of the adjoining women’s‘lormitories. In the library there areb5 to 11,5 copies of each of the read¬ings in the survey courses, a not un¬reasonable number in view of thefact that on an average day circula¬tion is about 800, one-third of whichi-" overnight. The biggest complaintthat students make is against themanner of circulating books over¬night.As much as an hour ahead of timeon Fridays students begin lining upoutside the College library door, wait¬ing for reserve books which are re-lea.sed for week-end use at 4:30.Lines are practically unsupervised.Students in line early preserve placesfor friends who arrive later—andwhy not? If they don’t cheat, theywill be cheated. The crucial time,between 4:10 and 4:30, sees the linet'xpand to three or four times its or¬iginal thickness, but its length under¬goes little change.Remedies ProposedThere are at least two ways inwhich the situation could be remediedwith little expenditure of time andmoney. Stretching a rope or putting a rail down the length of the thirdfloor corridor of Cobb hall would con¬fine the line to a single file; a regis¬ter of students in the order in whichthey appear would prevent all cheat¬ing.The book-crowding situation in theCollege library, unlike the inefficientmethod of reserve book distribution,is pretty representative of the Uni¬versity library system as a whole.The Psychology librarian reportsKifc dentroijinif glare front thedesks of the Graduate Educationallihrarg,that some books are ‘‘kept down¬stairs stored in cartons;” a studentassistant in the Billings library re¬ports that there is ‘‘not adequatespace for books so the library is forc¬ed to keep those books not in currentuse in the Biological library,” theyearly report of the Biological li¬brary states that reading and stackroom facilities are inadequate for thenumber of books kept there and largenumbers of volumes are badly in needof repairs, .\mong librarians ques¬tioned in the Biological Sciences di¬vision, the Lying-in Hospital librar¬ian alone reports ‘‘ample room forbooks and a large reading room toseat people using books.”With alarming unanimity the li¬brarian of the Social Sciences readingrooms states that the library is verycrowded for shelf space, the librarianof the Commerce and Administra¬tion library in Harper maintains thatthere is need for more space in whichto store books, and the librarian inRosenwald maintains that an eleva¬tor is needed so that books whichare now kept on the fifth floor mightbe more readily accessible.Seemingly the worst instance ofbook crowding with resulting delayin procuring books is found in theHarper stacks. At the time of itserection Harper Memorial librarywas thought “ample” for present andfuture book needs of the University;it is now very much “overcrowded”.The two floors of stacks under Har¬per have been filled; stacks have beenextended under the Social Sciencesbuilding and under Wieboldt Hall.Since each three-foot shelf accoma-dates 30 books and since at latest re¬port there are 406,681 volumes in themain Harper library collection, theremust be at least eight miles of bookshelves in the Memorial structure.No wonder it takes ten minutes toget a book from the stacks.Examination ofLibrary PolicyWe have now come to a cx’ucialquestion in the examination of Uni¬versity libraries—the question ofbook-buying policy itself.Book-buying Is the responsibility ofthe University library board, com¬posed of 30 departmental advisers,divisional representatives, the Direc¬tor of Libraries, the President of theUniversity, the Dean of Faculties, theDean of Students, and the Registrar.Meeting once a year, members of theLibrary board are given, in open sea¬son, copies of book budgets of thepreceding year as a basis from whichto construct the budget for the com¬ing year. Each departmental libraryrepresentative presents his requestfor funds and justifies his expendi¬tures before all other library repre¬sentatives. Library director Raneythen summarizes proceedings, andthe departmental book budgets areapproved. However, once depart¬mental book budgets are approved,departments may spend as they likefor books, provided they keep withintheir respective budgets.Certain ProblemsTaking the library system as awhole certain problems emerge inconnection with book-buying.(1) Shall the libraries provide text¬books or shall they provide books ofpermanent value?—scholarly, spec¬ialized works useful mainly for high¬er research.According to Raney departmentsvary widely in their policy on thisquestion. The Biological Sciences di¬vision and the Physical Sciences di¬vision are much better about supply¬ing texts to their students than arethe Social Sciences division and theHumanities Division. He attributesthis to their being accustomed to or¬ THE DAILY MAROON, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 18, 1936dering laboratory materials for justas many students as there are incourses.Confirms StatementsRaney’s statements are confirmedby various samples we made in li¬braries. Take for example the ratherplaintive statement made by the li¬brarian in the Divinity school library:“We have few or no texts bu tstressbooks of permanent value. The trou¬ble is students just ask us for booksassigned by professors. They don’tuse a great many of the really betterbooks.”Interesting, but it would seem to bebetter if a policy of text-book pur¬chase were devised for the Universitylibrary system as a whole.(2) Shall we emphasize the librar¬ies as a museum of antiquities orshall we emphasize the libraries asan epitome of knowledge it is im¬portant to know?Heterogeny DiscoveredAnd here we have the most miscel¬laneous results when we try to findout what is the function of the Uni¬versity library system. For examplethe Divinity School librarian againreports possession of a set of rareBibles, and a whole roomful of Bibleswritten in Greek, Latin, Hebrew,German, Dutch, French, and otherforeign languages. Many of thesedate from the beginning of printing.The Rare Book room of Harper li¬brary is an interesting and evergrowing museum of valuable books.Harper houses collections of Lincoln-iana and Napoleonana. Among thespecific miscellaneous collectionsowned by the University librariesare “1600 Almanache and Taschen-bucher,” photostats of all knownmanuscripts of Chaucer’s “Canter¬bury Tales,” the George Morris Eck¬els collection of Cromwelliana, Steph¬en A. Douglas papers, ‘The ElijahGrant Communistic Colony letters,”the “Nicholas Bacon collection ofEnglish manor rolls,” the “Lincke li¬brary of German subliterary fiction,1790-1850,” the “Reuben T. Durrettcollection of Kentucky history, bio¬graphy, and newspapers,” the “Willi¬am Huber Jr. collection of music,”the E. V. L. Brown collection of op-thalmology,” large collections of pub¬lic documents, etc.Need for PolicyObviously it is not desirable to re¬ject gifts, however miscellaneous incharacter they may be. It is desir¬able however to devise and maintaina consistent policy toward the ac¬quisition of museum pieces.In conclusion, what we advocatefirst and last is a library inventoryhaving in mind the immediate ac¬complishment of minor reforms, andthe development of a workable planfor the future by a centralized li¬brary committee not hampered by thelimitations of the departmental sys¬tem.MORNING-AHEirClEARED IN SECONDSIWorks in ueonds.

Chicago Avc.1510 Hyde Park Bird.501 Davb Street, Evanston Gerard DiscoversElectric Pulsationsin Nervous TissueBy HOWARD WICHMAN“The findings are leading, in myopinion, to a major revolution in ourideas of the physiology of the ner-R. W. Gerard, associate professor ofvous system... ”, recently wrote Dr.Physiology. He had ripped his wayinto the innermost parts of the hu¬man brain and had found a controll¬ing force—brain waves!Whenever nervous tissue is stimu¬lated a cycle of electrical impulsescan be measured. Dr. Gerard hadfound that even in the brain cells ofunstimulated persons a steady cycleof electrical impulses appears. Thus,he upsets the estblished theory ofmost other physiologists who hadmaintained that only active cells hada cycle of electricity; Dr. Gerard hadproven that all cells have this cycle.Believes in CoordinatorHe believes that a mechanism forcoordinating the electrical rhythm inlocal masses of cells must exist, andfurthermore, that a more distant-act¬ing mechanism controlling dominanceand subordination between masses ofcells must exist also.Research of the brain is one of themost difficult studies to pursue. Ap¬paratus fine enough to register a mil¬lionth of a volt must be used. Despitethe indirect nature of the study, how¬ever, this famous physiologist hasbeen able to trace the stimulus of asingle hair on an animal’s foot up tothat part of the brain reacting tosuch a stimulus.Commonplace ApplicationsThese studies may lead to a morespeculative opinion on the causes ofsuch phenomena as an audience ceas¬ing its applause as one, a school ofminnows turning as one, or a flightof birds flying as one. Perhaps, thesestudies may even throw light on thefamous mental telepathy experimentsat Duke University.For the last ten years Dr. Gerardhas been studying the subtler phasesof the nervous system. During thistime he has worked with three NobelPrize winners at the University Col¬lege in London, at the Kaiser Wil¬helm Institute in Berlin, and atTam-bridge University.Working in Europe for the Rocke¬feller Foundation in 1934-6, he con¬ducted a survey on research in thenervous system. In the course of hisresearches. Dr. Gerard has had oc¬casion to confer with Freud and Pav¬lov among other distinguished biolo¬gists. His work bridges the gap Be¬tween phsychology and physiology. Greek £etiers* * * ♦By CODY PFANSTIEHLEAR Alan :You wanted to know about open houses.Since these are to be weekly events from now till pledging (whichcomes late in January), I think we’d better dwell for a moment on theirpurpose, amenities, and procedure.We may define an open house as a voluntary mshing function open toany interested freshman or independent students regardless of invitation.By a mutual agreement only a few houses may open their doors onprescribed Sundays. Look in Today on the Quadrangles in each precedingFriday’s Maroon for the Sunday list. Or, if you have the Interfraternitycouncil’s book about fraternities, you may look up the date in the scheduleincluded there. If you haven’t a book come to the Maroon office and I’ll giveyou one with the compliments of the Council.Each house sends out invitations—occasionally as many as 200, depend¬ing on the policy of the individual fraternity. The purpose of invitations istwofold: assurance of adequate attendance to give the house a well-filled ap.pearance; and a means of continuing personal contact with a freshman—to keep the fraternity name in his mind.Unless otherwise indicated, the invitations need not be answered.But let us say you did not receive an invitation to Alpha Epsilon, andyou would like to investigate that crowd. All right—look up the Sundaywhen they’re open, and go and investigate! Alpha Epsilon will be doublypleased. They didn’t know about you, and here you’ve showed a real desireto become acquainted.And if you received an invitation and your bosom friend Pete didn’t,don’t be afraid to bring Pete with you when you make the rounds. Morethan anything, the fraternities want to find out who your friends are, notonly because they may want to pledge them, but also because they are anindication of your taste and wants.And there’s nothing a fraternity likes to do better than pledge a whole“crowd” at once. Makes for a congenial class.No matter what your invitation says, you don’t have to stay at onehouse for the whole afternoon and evening. I’d advi.se you to circulatepretty freely during these early periods. Get a sort of a birds’-eye view,and then start narrowing them down.But Alan—worse than anything, don’t just pop in and })op out again.No one gets to know anybody in a “hello-goodbye” visit.Be sure you have their name straight before you go in. Have it wellin mind, for all evening you’ll be hitching personalities to it, building up apicture synonamous with that name.If they’re well organized they’ll have a man at the door to meet you.Give him your name, and he’ll tell you his. After that—well, each house doesit differently. Some just sit. Some have games. Most everybody eats, andeverybody talks and talks and talks. That’s what the whole thing’s for.Eisendrath DisplaysPhoto in ExhibitionThe Third International Leica Ex¬hibition is at the Blackstone hotelthis week. Of special interest to Uni¬versity Students is a picture by Ma¬roon Staff Photographer David Eis¬endrath.

The dropin crowds at home games is familiarto all followers of the Maroon’s foot¬ball fortunes.Figures on the share of the visitorin gate receipts at the largest gameof the year for the past 8 seasonsshows a decrease from $70,000 in1928 at the Illinois game to the $12,-274 that the Boilermakers took homewith them after the game last year.The biggest take so far this year is$5,000, Purdue’s share of the game amonth ago, but the Illinois game thisSaturday is expected to raise thistotal nearer that of last year.In 1929 Princeton took $40,123 asits share in the gate; next year Yalereversed the trend with a $43,747nest egg. The effect of the depres¬sion shows in the decline to $21,674as Illinois’ share in the receipts in1934; and the decline to $12,274 lastyear.* « «Last year the athletic departmentcost the University about $55,000.Total gate receipts were $79,086, butthis figure represents a decline ofnearly half from the year before,when the Maroons took in $134,956.51. These figures include all sports.The explanation of this tremendousdecline is that in 1934-5 the footballteam had several games with bigteams away, where great crowdscame out to see the home team per¬form.* • «After the Illinois game last Satur¬day Coach Francis Schmidt of theOhio State Buckeyes said that Chi¬cago should take Illinois in season’sfinal game this week-end, accordingto an item in the Daily Illini. Thegame against the Buckeyes showedthe Illini strong on defense, espe¬cially passes, but weak on offense.Football captain is a better scorepredicter than dramatic critic if theresult of last week’s rival predictionsis conclusive. Whiteside picked thewinner in ten of the twelve games;Hickman missed three. On points,Whiteside was 186 wide of the actu¬al scores, Hickman 193, 15}4 and 16points per game respectively.« 4> *The bare expanse of Stagg field |walls have been relieved by the;planting of trees during the past'week or two. It is reported that the |reason the long years of unsightly jbareness was that Amos AlonzoStagg objected to the planting oftrees around the stadium lest raga¬muffins by climbing them could seethe game.

The first of these. Bud Jordan,has played reg^ilar guard on the Ma¬roon team for three years, and isamong the outstanding guards in theBig Ten.Jordan possesses the ideal build fora guard. He stands five feet, teninches, and weighs in the neighbor¬hood of 185 pounds. Although ratherstockily built. Bud is very fast, andpossesses excellent coordination.Flays Running GuardOn offense, Jordan plays the keyposition of running guard. On allrunning plays except plunges he mustpull out of the line and run inter¬ference, and on all passes he mustpull back and protect the passer. Inorder to play this position well aguard must be fast and powerful,and have a mastery of open fieldblocking as well as straight linecharging.Jordan’s defensive play consistsusually of the submarining style ofdriving under the opposing line tostop plunges. However, he alwaysplays the alert line game, often knif¬ing through the opposing line tomake tackles back of the line ofscrimmage.Bud hails from LaGrange, Illinois,which has also been the home of twoother of the last three Maroon cap¬tains, Elmore Patterson, and PeteZimmer. In addition to being foot¬ball captain, Jordan is a member ofOwl and Serpent, senior men’s hon¬orary society, and Delta Kappa Epsi¬lon. He is majoring in chemistry.Thanksgiving Day Dinner$1.00-$1.50Turkey — DuckChicken -- SteakFishService Noon to 8 P.M.For Reservations Phone Hyde Park 9287G.
