UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO, THURSDAY, JANUARY 7, 1937 Price Three CentsSocial Servicelibrary lOpensin Harper MilNew Room Designed to Re¬lieve Congestion in So¬cial Science Ell.Relieving the congestion in thepreviously over-crowded Social Sci¬ence reading room and library, a newlibrary has been opened exclusivelyfor students of Social Service Admin¬istration in Harper Mil.This brings the total number ofUniversity libraries to 27.Formerly a lecture hall, HarperMU has been fitted with bookshelves,and linoleum laid on the floor by theBuPidings and Grounds department.Capacity of 88The new SSA room is able to han¬dle S8 .students. Jit present tempo¬rary tables are in use, but these will.soon be replaced by furniture nowunder construction, according toI.lewellyn M. Raney, director of Uni¬versity Libraries.This library was formerly includedin the Social Science library. In es¬tablishing the SSA room, 2,500 bookswere moved out of the Social Sciencereading room, thus affording neededshelf space in the reading room.Open hours of the SSA library willbe the .same as those in effect in Har¬per library—8 a.m. to 10 p.m. week¬days, and 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Satur¬days.Centralizes ReferencesIn the opinion of a competent au¬thority, the new library “greatly re¬lieves the congestion that was pre.sentin the Social Science reading room,and affords a much more centralizedsource for books needed in the SocialService Administration courses. How¬ever, since the room will be usedlargely by graduate students for ref¬erence work, the pre.sent accommo¬dations will probably prove inade-(|uate liecause of the large space usedby such students and their papers.”.\ccording to the librarians, fewstudents have taken advantage of thenew library as yet, but H is expectedthat as students in the Social Serv¬ice Administration become aware ofthe new facilities, more will take ad¬vantage of them. Announce Meetingof Applicants forMaroon PositionsToday, The Daily Maroon issues afinal call for staff members, and anystudent who enjoys writing, or feelsthat he would be interested in any ofthe technical work which surroundsnewspaper editing, will be interview¬ed by John Morris, associate editor,in the Maroon office in LexingtonHall after 3:30 today.Because this year’s editorial staffis small, newcomers will have an ex¬cellent chance for advancement andwill be ranked on an equal basis withthe veteran reporters.Six junior positions on the Maroonare already filled. These six are incharge of the main divisions of cam¬pus news, and under them are edi¬torial assistants and reporters. Underthe system which has been put intoeffect, the calibre of work done bya freshman determines whether he isa reporter or editorial assistant.Sophomores are eligible for juniorpositions, and this year those who arejust reporting for work may achieveone of these. Likewise, sophomoresmay be named to the board of con¬trol for next year if they provethemselves capable. Maroons LoseCage Contestto HilltoppersSokody Leads Marquetteto 23-15 Victory in SlowContest.By “HANK” GROSSMANIn a let-down from the brilliantshowing against Notre Dame, theMaroon five was downed, 23-15, byMarquette university last night inthe Fieldhouse.The first half saw Marquette graba lead when the game was eight min¬utes old. Chicago closed in duringthe final moments of the half, andthe score was 13-8.The Hilltoppers came back in thesecond period and increased theirlead steadily, largely aided by thesharp-shooting of Paul Sokody, whochalked up eleven points in the scor¬ing column, and was Marquette’sspark on offense.Chicago Scores FirstMaurie Rossin, stellar guard of theMidway outfit, opened the scoring bysinking a follow-up shot in the open¬ing seconds of play.

The I-F Council feels that atthis time, when there is intense riv¬alry among the various houses forthe favor of the freshmen, that sucha meeting will do much to keep rush¬ing on a fair basis and to keep thefraternities on friendly terms. Thisis the first time that the Council hasattempted to get the men togetherand to give them last minute instruc¬tions before rushing week.Robert Bethke, who is in charge ofthe affair, has asked that all housesthat are holding chapter meetings onthis night arrange to have their meet¬ings over by 9 so that fraternity menwill be able to attend.A program is being arranged whichwill include refreshments and enter-ment. Ample facilities will be sup¬plied for bridge, ping pong, billiardsand other parlor games.

The day of the ‘college humor’magazine is past. A purely liter¬ary magazine cannot secure the masscirculation necessary to support it.Specialized technical reviews, wheth¬er economic or ‘philosophical,’ failfor the same reason. What we pro¬pose is a magazine that will reflectthe entire campus and appeal to thegreat body of the students. To ac¬complish the purpose, we will includea section of six to eight pages whichmight be called a ‘news review’. Forthis section we plan, without aping,the ‘Time’ technique, emphasizingwill be added from time to time.The committee on campus prob¬lems will investigate University con¬ditions and recommend improve¬ments to the ASU which will enlistthe cooperation of the entire studentbody in securing reforms when nec¬essary.Another committee will do re¬search on the American Youth Act,and their findings will be used in de¬termining ASU policy. The laborcommittee will investigate the C.I.O.and try to understand labor prob¬lems in Chicago and how the studentmovement Cjan best cooperate withlabor.Other committees will be the pub¬licity, social and international prob¬lems committee. The last will be es¬pecially concerned with Spain atpresent.The arts committee will sponsor amovement such as that of the New j personalities and the behind-the-Arts League, to incorporate all lib¬eral arts groups on campus, and pro¬vide a common center for all thoseinterested in the liberal arts.One of the important objectives ofthe executive committee is the estab- ilishment of a permanent ASU officeon campus.James Weber LinnAdds to Rebuttedon Education Issuepend upon my proposals, one ofwhich is an extended department.Oxford, however,” he added with asmile, “doesn’t even know my plans.”Professor Radcliffe-Brown’s ap¬pointment is an indication that Ox¬ford wants to extend its work in thefield, since not even one-fourth of thefaculty in an English university is collected to send representatives toWashington this spring when theAmerican Youth Act comes up beforeCongress.The Settlement Board, ruling bodyof the Settlement, will hold its reg¬ular monthly meeting Monday eve¬ning in the Common Room of Has¬kell Hall. By ELROY GOLDINGTo add his bit to the educationalcontroversy which in the last twomonths has brought forth PresidentRobert M. Hutchins’ unconventionaltheses on University education, Yalelaw dean Charles Clark’s rebuttal ofhis star pupil, and a magazine crit¬ique by John Dewey on the Univer¬sity’s president views, James WeberLinn, professor of English, publishedhis “Notes on a Textbook,” in theDecember issue of the UniversityAlumni magazine.With a blithe unawareness that toquote out of context is the greatestsin of the c ommentator. ProfessorLinn quotes short passages fromHutchins’ book, “The Higher Learn¬ing in America,” and appends hispencilled comments. “Teddy” pre¬faces his remarks by saying that heagrees with whatever parts of thebook are not commented on.

Grossman, Saul WeismanThursday, January 7, 1937Upset Social Science SchedulesMany students in the Social Science divisionare finding it impossible to adequately pre¬pare for the divisional examination, and manyhave found their selection of courses sudden¬ly restricted.According to present plans this examinationis offered not at the end of the spring quarteras has been the custom in the past, but at theend of the winter quarter. The test is not givenagain until the end of the summer term. Thischange was announced fully two months aftermost, students had registered last fall, and ef¬fectively upsets many persons’ course of studyfor the school year as outlined by them at thetime of their registration.Previously it has been common practice totake the divisional examination at the end ofthe Junior year, and the departmental at theend of the Senior year. Accordingly, the ma¬jority of students registered last fall with thisplan in mind, arranging their courses to coverthe necessary five units in three quarters.But last quarter, two months deep in theirstudies, the students found that the examina¬tion had been moved one quarter nearer.Therefore the course or courses they plannedto take in the spring must likewise be movedup three months. After consulting the win¬ter quarter time schedule they are more thanlikely to find this impossible.They must therefore drop an elective or adepartmental course, thereby further upset¬ting their study outline, or register in theHome Study department, thereby adding acourse or study the unit without benefit ofclassroom lectures.

P.“Love of Money** in EducationReprinted from The Daily KansanIn times of anxiety and discontent, whendiscontent has engendered the belief that greatand widespread economic and social changesare needed, there is a risk that men or Statesmay act hastily, rushing to new schemes whichseem promising chiefly because they are new.People catch at expedients that have a super¬ficial air of practicality, and forget the generaltheory upon which practical plans should bebased. It is education and its proper applica¬tion that people should look to.Modern education should have three chiefited the ancient view that the chief aim of in¬struction is to prepare the few wise and goodfor the government of the State. It is not up¬on this world but also upon the material thingsof this world, power and acquisition of terri¬tory, industrial production, commerce, finance,wealth and prosperity in all its forms, that themodern eye is fixed.Modern education shuold have three chiefaims:One aim is to fit the student to be at least ex¬plorers, even if not discoverers, in the fields ofscience and learning.A second is to fit them to be leaders in thefield of action, leaders not only by their initia¬tive and their diligence, but also by the powerand the habit of turning a full stream ofthought and knowledge upon whatever workthey have to do.•A third is to give them the taste for andthe habit of enjoying, intellectual pleasures.Many moralists, ancient and modern, havegiven pleasure a bad name because they sawthat the most alluring and powerfully seduc¬tive pleasures, pleasures which appeal to allstudents alike, were indulged in to excess, andbecame a source of evil. But all students willhave pleasure and ought to have pleasure. Thebest way of drawing them off from the moredangerous pleasures is to teach them to enjoythe better kinds. Moreover the quieter pleas¬ures of the intellect mean rest and greater fit¬ness for resuming work.At the present time, however, there is areal danger—in some quarters at least — ofunduly emphasizing the specifically vocation¬al, or ‘.‘practical” side of education. The manof affairs knows little or nothing of youngminds and their limitations, or the education¬al values of the various studies in a school cur¬riculum. He is prone to choose subjects chieflyor solely because of their immediate practicalutility. Thus in his view the chief reason forlearning a modern language is that businesscommunications will thereby be facilitated.Strong pressure is being brought to bear tocommercialize American education, to makeit subservient to wealth and convert the stu¬dents into a money-making mob. A nationcannot last as a money-making mob. It can¬not with impunity—it cannot with existence—go on despising literature, despising science,despising nature, despising compassion, andconcentrating its soul on pence.The Travelling BazaarBy FRANCES POWERCOFFEE SHOPPERHello darlings!

Mathews of the Amer¬ican Dictionary Staff has completeda study of some peculiarities ofSouthern speech, as well as findingsome unusual information on theorigin of the word “Midw'ay.”Emphasizing that the retention ofold forms and pronuncations is amarked characteristic of southernspeech, Mathews offers several ex¬amples of these usages. For instance,there is the Southern use of theword “carry” in such expressions as“to carry the horse to water” whichis a survival of “carry” in a sensethat is now obsolete except in theSouth. Widely current before andduring Shakespere’s time, the ex¬pression made its way into the KingJames version of the Bible.Lady Carries HorseLater in 1758, Samuel Johnson,the noted lexicographer, mentioned alady who had “carried her horse athousand miles in a thousand hours.” for its beginning. At the time theWorld’s Columbian Exposition heldthe attention of the nation, the Mid¬way of today was properly known a.«the “Midway Plaisance.” Surrendedby the lighter amusements of theFair, the “Midway Plaisance” grad¬ually acquired the connotation of “anavenue in the middle of or connect¬ing two portions of an exhibition orfair.”Buffalo Bill Cody and his Indianshad an encampment where Billingshospital now overlooks Ellis avenue.All the gayety and frivolity of the’90’s has come to be associated withthe word “Midway” in modern wordusage, the word “Plaisance” havingbeen dropped for the sake of brevity.University WelcomesTwo German VisitorsTwo distinguished guests fromGermany will be at the Universityduring the month of February.

The colloquial term usuallyapplied to such a situation is “steam¬roller.” There was neither an elec¬tion nor the semblance of one.2. Naturally enough, a group offreshmen sufficiently wide-eyed torecognize this steamroller for whatit was, promptly registered a com¬plaint with Dean Smith. The Deanarranged a meeting in his office atwhich both factions were present.The agreement reached follows:3. The nominating committee waswithdrat^^n. The Social Committee,which had been appointed by DeanSmith early in the autumn quarter,was to set up election machinery assoon as an organization petition of200 names had been deposited withthe Dean. (At this writing, it is un¬derstood that the requisite numberof organization petitions have beensubmitted.)The Social Committee met severalweeks prior to the end of the au¬tumn quarter and was decided.1. that nominating to the Fresh¬man Executive Council would be byl)etition and that twenty signatureswould be required on each petition.(This Executive Council will sup¬plant the traditional cla.ss officers.)2. that this Executive Councilwill consist of nine members, ofwhich no more than .six will be ofeither sex.Many petitions have been circulat¬ed. The deadline for petition sub¬mission has not yet been set. All thatnow remain.s to be done is the settingof this deadline date and the elec¬tion runoff.Ray Welch. that is not too conspicuously Ger¬man. This course Germany hasadopted. But this prolongs the strug¬gle, giving democracy a chance toawaken from her slumbers, and per-I haps extends it so far into the futurej that the danger of Spain becoming a1 world battle front will again arise.j What must we yearn from this sit-} uation? Does it not warn us that wemust consider Spain’s defense ourown responsibility? If Spain is lostto democracy, Germany’s position isconsolidated, France mutt look to therear, and world war is at our door¬step—a direct threat to every nationand to every human-being whetherthey will or no. If we prolong thepresent stalemate and the existenceof a potential double front in Eu¬rope, Germany is in a bad spot—andtherefore we delay the coming of theworld war. If we help to win a Peo¬ple’s victory in Spain, Germany’s po¬sition is precarious. All the aid thatHitler has pumped into Spain will bea dead loss and he won’t, be anystronger for that. The double frontwill have become a reality. Wartakes more steps into the future andperhaps even disappears as fascistaggressors feel the paresis of inse¬curity. Deprived of giving the Italianand the German people the one lastthing it has to give-~I refer to war,fascism will begin to feel the in¬creasing internal threats of its fee¬ble economic basis; perhaps then thereal voice of Germany will be heard,(with full apologies to the Friendsof New Germany.) While fascismweakens from within, other benefitsaccrue. The farther into the distancewar is pushed, the greater is the op¬portunity for the unprotected peo¬ples of the earth tp build strong anti¬fascist People’s Fronts. This will befurther undermining of fasciststrength. If Hitler and his alliespush ahead regardless, their militaryposition will be weak, their chancesof success will be small, their armiesmight return home defeated.We cannot let precious momentsslip by if there is any truth in thisglance into the future. Let us rallyto the defense of the heroic Spanishpeople; Hitler will receive the tid¬ings; not with scorn and threat ofvengeance, but with fear.Miriam Fine.

Hereafter color motion pic¬tures will be employed in someschools to show technique of the sur¬geon.How can the process be filmed?Simple. Dr. R. Plato Schwartz, ofthe University of Rochester, explainsthat the photographer, by using colorfilm sensitized to artificial light andby using a telephoto lens, can nowtake pictures over the surgeon’sshoulder—pictures that will repro-di|ce the operation in true color and,also essential, in the right size andperspective.Dr. Schwartz anticipates univer¬sal use of this novel teaching meth¬od within a short time. One of theadvantages he points out is that un¬usual surgical cases can be project¬ed many times for instructing, lec¬ture purposes, and case histories.* * *Some years ago at the Universityof' Notre Dame, quarterbacks usedto whip their Irish elevens into form¬ation by yelling signals in Italianand Polish.

Then, sudden-I.v, it is iieported that 5',000 Nazishave landed in Spain. This frugalitymingled with sudden spurts of gen¬erosity looks very much like: 1. adesire on the part of Germany andItaly to keep themselves as strong aspos.sible because of the war clouds onthe horizon (shipments of arms andplanes weaken a country consider-5‘bly), and 2. sudden fits of despera¬tion. But why has Germany becomedesperate? Consider this: can Ger¬many, with her bluster about the So¬viet Union, afford to have Spain asthe battle front in the very possiblyapproaching war?

But this isdebilitating—how will Germany beable to defeat Russia with one grandcoup if she has been dissipating herstrength? This desperation was madeobvious in the sudden overt Ger-man-Japanese alliance which onlyserved to alarm the British, a powerthat had been drifting, torn betweenimperial interest (which would bringalliance with anti-war Spain) and aconservative government at home(which seems to prefer alliance withthe land-hungry Fascists).Germany had and has every rea¬son to believe that overt and power¬ful aid to Franco will bring theNorth and the West thundering uponher, and will hopelessly alienatesome of the more “neutral” powers.The former would leave her in thedilemma of the double front; thelatter is obviously undesirable.

By EDWARD C. FRITZ* ♦ ♦In the Maroon locker room lastnight, after Marquette’s calm cagershad demonstrated how to think on abasketball floor, Bob Fitzgerald wasdisappointedly asking Coach NelsNorgn'cr* what had been the troublewith the home time.■“Just a little flat-footed, ‘Fitz’,”was the coach’s sympathetic reply.“That’s all right, now. Let’s startthinking about Saturday night.’’* * ♦Thus “Gentleman Norg’’ dismissedone of Bob’s worries and added an¬other w’orry in its place. The sec¬ond worry is the bigger, because thegame Saturday night happens to bewith Indiana, co-champions of theBig Ten and one of the most high¬ly-rated quintets in the nation thisseason.Not only do the Maroons begintheir conference schedule againstone of the most difficult teams, butlater they must also face all theother top teams in the conference ex¬cept Purdue and uncertain Iowa. It istoo bad that Wisconsin is the thirdconference quintet Chicago does notplay this season. We are hoping fora good conference record, but itwould be pleasant to have a less for¬midable team like Wisconsin on ourschedule. Look at what the Badg¬ers did for us in football.* ♦ ♦The loss to Marquette last nightshould not be disheartening in viewof the fact that the Hilltoppers havea powerful defense which keeps al¬most all their opponents out in themiddle of the floor. Such a defensemakes the opposing team look worsethan it really is.And, by the way, we think thatbasketball is about the hardest sportfor a man to look good in. Everyplay is so swift and so hair-brainedthat mistakes ’ are Inevitable, andwhen they occur they are usuallyobvious.♦ * *An interesting side light of thegame last night was the look on PaulAmundsen’s face when a fast-break¬ing Marquette forward, heading un¬impeded toward the Maroon basket,suddenly pas.sed the sphere to theunexpecting Chicagoan. The elong¬ated Amundsen just stood thereamazed for several moments with theball idle in his big hands. Marquette(Continued from page 1)However, the only ones able to takeball. The officials were lenient withthe players, but did call a few fouls.I advantage of it were Fitzgci’ald ofI the Norgrenites and O’Keefe for! Coach Chandler’s boys.The successful fi’ee throw avei'agej of both teams was low. Marquettej connected for five out of eleven, and, the Maroons could do not better.Amundsen was responsible for fourof Chicago’s failures.Jack Mullins, diminutive forwardwho was injured in the game withthe Irish, was not in uniform; andBob Cassels, who started in his place,filled his shoes ably.Lack AggressivenessThe alertness and fight that hascharacterized the play of the Chicagoteam in the last two games was miss¬ing. The sloppy passing displayedby them in the beginning of the sea¬son was once more present; and theboys were slow on the recovery andas a result repeatedly lost fKe ball.However, there was one good pointin the play of the home team, thatbeing the continuance of their stel¬lar defense. When the Maroon’seyes are up to normal, they shouldbe good enough to trim a team theyhave held to 23 points.
