Very often therewill be a five or ten minute pause be¬tween programs. Since “time” isnot sold, there is no attempt to con¬serve" it or work on schedule.Dean Spencer also spent some time■with British Railroad officials andlabor leaders studying their method ish universities, including Oxford,Cambridge, and Edinburgh. He didnot spend sufficient time there, how¬ever, to form any opinions regardingEnglish undergraduates beyond theindifferent admission that they ap¬peared quite comparable to theirAmerican contemporaries.Although he will not teach thisquarter, Spencer will resume his du¬ties as dean of the School of Busj- ceeded in ‘buying off’ Italy. Neith¬er Italy nor Germany is readyfor war, and if Italy were to pledgeneutrality. Hitler, without Musso¬lini’s backing, would not be anxiousto take drastic steps.Obviously the Fascists have madelittle progress during the last fewweeks. It is possible that the diffi¬culty is lack of support from the outtside, but in Mr. Wright’s opinion, themore the Fascists advance and con¬quer territory, the more widelyspread their meager forces are. Andif, as is now becoming certain, theloyalists are predominantly the fav¬orites of the majority of people, theFascists find it hard to hold the con¬quered territory in submission andcontinue to conquer more.Russia has been taking a quieterattitude during the crisis than eitherGermany or Italy, but it isn’t becauseshe isn’t interested. Rather, it is hergeographical position which makes itharder for Russia to assist com¬rades in Spain. However, the chancesare that she would not be adverse to a neutrality policy if only her Fasc¬ist opponents would do the same.British opinion appears to be pret¬ty well divided, but England wishes,to keep the turmoil from spreading tothe rest of the world. In this sheis supported by the people of France,(Continued on page 3) For the first time in several years,the band has organized its member¬ship, choosing Hilmar Luckhardt,graduate student in the Music de¬partment, as president. Since theband already has a business organ¬ization, the function of the new ex¬ecutive committee will be mainly totake charge of social affairs.Vice-president is Arthur Rabe, andWilliam Shanner is secretary-treas¬urer. William Rubach, as, historian,will keep records of band engage¬ments and publicity notices. To fillthe two remaining places on the ex¬ecutive committee the group haschosen Robert Mohlman and JohnDearhan, not a student at the Uni¬versity.

For 12 years Dr. Warder C. Al-lee, professor of Zoology, has beenworking on the manuscripts of twobooks, one a translation of a Ger¬man text and the other a revision of“The Nature of the World and ofMan.” Dr. Allee is engaged on atranslation of the book “Tiergeo-graphie” by Dr. Richard Hesse, form¬erly at the University of Bonn andnow a professor at the University ofBerlin, The American edition is tobe called “An Ecological AnimalGeography.” Dr. Allee and CarlSmith of the Field Museum, who isassociated with Dr, Allee on thiswork have made a “good” translationof the text, and have also edited it.The American edition has one-thirdof the text changed from the orig¬inal.Dr. Hesse worked on the manu¬script for 12 years. Almost immedi¬ately after the book was publishedin 1924 Dr. Allee and Mr. Smith be¬gan work on the translation. Thus,the American edition represents a means of preventing the spread ofan epidemic of influenza.The epidemic, now quite generalin Chicago, has not affected many inthe University community. Dr. Reedstated that Christmas vacation, al¬lowing so many to leave the city,stopped thd" spread of flu among thestudents. There are only about fourpersons a day visiting the clinics fortreatments. Ten students, sufferingfrom this illness, are at the presenttime registered in Billings Hospital.To avoid the flu and colds theaverage person will have to limitsome of his activities. Dr. Reed ad¬vises that students avoid crowdedpublic places, including restaurants,dance halls, and theaters. The per¬son should get adequate sleep andnot overwork himself.Contact with all people with coldsshould be avoided, and visits to thosesuffering with cold and influenzashould be stopped. The doctorwarned that everyoiTe should avoidputting needless things to their noseand lips, since the germs that causecolds can exist on small objects likepencils and erasers. In general, thehands should be kept from the mouthas much as possible because theycome in contact with so many objectthat have germs on them.Those desiring further informationof the tournanient should consult the j quarter of a century of worktournament card in the ping pong j The book is to be used in the Uni¬room, (CnntinuAd «n paare 2'i Maroon PositionsAny student interested in secur¬ing a position on the Maroon edi¬torial staff will be interviewed byJohn Morris, associate editor, inthe Maroon office in LexingtonHall next* Tuesday afternoon, 3:30.Page Two THE DAILY MAROON, FRIDAY, JANUARY 8, 1937iiaroanFOUNDED IN 1901Member Associated Collegiate PressThe Daily Maroon is the oflficial student newspaper of theUniversity of Chicago, published mornings except Saturday, Sun¬day, and Monday during the Autumn, Winter, and Spring quartersby The Daily Maroon Company, 5831 University avenue.

GoldingAssistant: Harris BeckProofreaders: Jack Cornelius and Nicholas TappFriday, January 8, 1937A Trend in Policy: the ASUCampus liberals gathered recently at thenational convention of the American StudentUnion to discuss common problems withmembers of the national organization and ofother chapters throughout the country. TheChicago chapter was officially recognized asone of the best and the largest in point of size—having 412 registered members.At the meetings a number of changes weremade in various aspects of the national plat¬form, mainly changes in the stress placedupon different aspects of the organization.From a group devoted principally to the dis¬cussion of problems of academic freedom, thefight against war and fascism,^ and. liberalthinking in general, the organization will tryto become a militant though not an obstruc¬tionist organization devoted to the cause oflabor and pacifism. As a result the group re¬affirmed its stand on the Oxford Oath andalso paradoxically active support in everyway possible of the Spanish loyalists.With regard to the labor plank there ismuch to be said. Although the ASU is quickto point out that they are not condemning the“good points” of the platform of the Ameri¬can Federation of Labor, they do say thatthey believe that ’John L. Lewis’ Committeefor Industrial Organization is the true solu¬tion, and will go as far as to lend unofficialsupport to that organiaztion’s troubles withthe Chicago steel mills.Since it is conceded by many important au¬thorities that John L. Lewis’ work is aimedtoward the presidential candidacy in 1940, ona farmer-labor ticket, the only conclusionthat can be drawn is that the ASU is tend¬ing in the direction of the old SLID andNSL — toward political partisanship — andthus defeating one of the purposes for whichthe group, at least at the University, was con¬ceived—to provide a center for the discussionfor all persons of liberal sentiments. To fur¬ther bear out this point one might mentionthe fact that the organization voted in con¬vention to consider support of a Farmer-La¬bor party that should one be organized andempowered its national executive committeeThe ABC’sStare Decisis in the LawThe law is progressive and expanding, adapt¬ing itself to the new relations and interests whichare constantly springing up in the progress of so¬ciety. But this progress must be by analogy towhat is already settled.j —Quotation from Chief Justice Greene on fron¬tispiece of Corpus Juris Secundum. to investigate the possibility of this duringthe next year.The other plank with which many liberal¬thinking persons may take issue is the oneregarding the Spanish civil war. Active sup¬port of the loyalist battalipns is asked, to bedemonstrated by contributions of clothes andmoney. In a society which feels that the onlyway to avoid war is to sever all connectionswith warring parties, this part of the plat¬form directly contradicts one of the idealsof the ASU—the outlawry of war in all itsforms.There is no need here to take issue withthe Oxford Oath as many pages have beenwritten concerning it. But how can a groupwhich will not support its own country intime of war put itself on record in support ofone of the parties to a civil war?The American Student Union desires toperform services, to promote progress in ed¬ucation and in society; but its stand onlabor and the Spanish war it appears to beoutlawing from its ranks that group whichmight be known as the “indifferent middle,”to which many of the 412 members claim tobelong.As a remedy, we suggest that the Chicagochapter of the American Student disaffiliateitself from the national organization andturn its attention to research and discussionof liberal thoughts and ideas. Let it have alabor section devoted to the study of laborproblems but not direct participation in thetroubes of labor. Let them have liberal be¬liefs but not become political partisans un¬til some force looms upon the horizon whichmight fbreaten their freedom.Thus we sum up by saying that we com¬mend the American Student Union for itswork in attempting to introduce liberal ideasinto the education of American youth and forits sponsorship of leftist theater. Lookingforward to the future we can see for it onlythe fate of the political groups which it dis¬placed, narrow-minded partisanship in left-wing politics. Until there is a need for mili¬tant organization, college students should de¬vote themseves to their principal occupation—getting an education.—E. S.

After having to stop everynow and then to put the wheels back on the trail¬er, they finally arrived at Miami Beach.

All went well until the boys wereexposed to the charms of a siren known as CherokeeSal, discovered in a night club colorfully known asthe La Paloma. True love eventually triumphed,however, when Stauffer found a beautiful little 18year old who affectionately referred to Goodstein as“Moaten” and Hopkins as “Shoaty.” From then onall was peaceful.

Professor Willough¬by’s book is the cycle of text illus¬trations treating in detail of decora¬tive text, ornament, evangelist por¬traiture, and the technique of illum¬ination. It also is a study of theseparate Karahissar text illustra¬tions.“The Four Gospels of Karahissar”is an important medieval Greek man¬uscript containing the most sacredportions of the Holy Scripture. Itwas made for a ruler who used suchcodices as bribes in internationalpolicy, but for more than three hun¬dred years was a religious object.A Russian diplomat discovered it and ;took it to Russia where it is now in !the State Public Library at Lenin- jgrad.The “Manual of Style” was writ-1ten thirty years ago by the first;proofreader of the University Pressfor his own guidance and was later |published in 1906 under Louis W’arm-1ing, assistant to the General Editor, jSince then it has become the bible 'of proofreaders and advertising men, iand is considered the best authority Iin its field. jHutchins(Continued from page 1)judged ruled that Mr. Manuel re-1main at large because he had per-1formed no “overt act” against Dr. |Hutchins. |A week later came a commence¬ment address for a local school,where the president spoke.

I was sur-! prised, as must everyone be who is' aware of its absence. Perhaps thelibrarians did not want his book. Itis inconceivable that the machineryfor buying and cataloguing new bookscould be so inefficient as to cau.se sucha long delay. Maybe it has been de¬cided by whoever makes such de¬cisions that the book should not be inour libraries because of its beingpublished by the Yale Press (thatmay be part of “the educationalfunction of New England”).They may think it isn’t worth the itwo bucks for which it sells. Itshould be pretty powerful stuff tomerit two cents for each half-filledpage of large printing. I am remindedof one of the Victory Vanities skitsdepicting Pres.

JANUARY 8, 1937 Page ThreePla/sThe Thing♦ «By jAMES BERNARD« * *The policy of drama critics, musiccommentators and such in collegenewspapers throughout the countryhas been one of technical criticism,panning, and the like. A student indrama has applied to the editorialdepartment and asked for a job aslearned interpreter of downtown en¬tertainment. He becomes a memberof the editorial staff and gives erud¬ite interpretations of the season’s per¬formances and he considers himselfa successful writer if he carries hisreaders with him into the land ofdestructive criticism, of pseudo-non¬sensical metaphorical nothings. Para¬graph after paragraph has beenwritten about meaningless impressionsmade while sitting in the “Fifth Row('enter.”This writer is considered a normalindividual with commonplace reac¬tions to the world of music, drama,cinema, night life and entertainmentof all sorts. My qualifications arelisted as follows: At nine your re¬porter won a guessing contest at Ra-vinia Park by picking the most num¬ber of correct classical excerptsplayed by the Chicago Symphony Or¬chestra that memorable Wednesdayafternoon. In the field of dramayour writer has been a constant at¬tendee of Shubert, Erlanger, Audi¬torium productions since a mere totand has done quite a bit of readingin that field. Everybody goes to themovies. The night spots have beenfrequently visited and enjoyed. Andfor the other entertainment, well,he’s been around. So now that every¬thing is clear, this writer will em¬bark on a task of keeping the cam¬pus informed on worthwhile eventsin the amusement world—Here goes:Several theaters in the loop arecurrently turning away crowds sincethe attractions they are presentingare of unusual merit. The most elab¬orate and talked about performancein the loop is the new edition of theFollies starring Fannie Brice, the be¬loved mimic and creator of the fam¬ous radio character, “Snooks”. Aninteresting story concerning Zieg-field and his choosing oF the greatMiss Brice is indicative of her gen¬ial personality.In the earlier days, when the twen¬ty-nine year old series of Follies wasjust beginning, Ziegfield was his owntalent scout. When he heard of per¬formers of outstanding ability, hewatched their acts and if he likedthem, would go to their dressingrooms to make an offer.It was in this manner that he se¬lected Fannie Brice when she was inburlesque. “When he first wiredme,” Miss Brice said, “I couldn’t be¬lieve the telegram came from him. 1thought, it was a joke, so I ignoredit. Several days later when I metBert Cooper, a booking agent, hesaid:‘Say, Fannie, didn’t you get a tele-Frolic Theatre55»h b ELLIS AVE.TODAY“Stage Struck”Dick Powell and Joan BlondellSATURDAC“Pepper” ^Jane Withers and Irvin S.

MissBrice signed with Ziegfield at $75.00a week the first year and $100.00 thenext. Then she wore out eight dup¬licate contracts folding and unfold¬ing them to show Ziegfield’s signatureto every one she knew on Broadway.* ♦ *Last night the Chicago Symphonygave an unusual reading of the fam¬ous Richard Strauss tone poem, “EinHeldenleben,” the life of a heroclimaxing in tremendous chords de¬noting the passing of the soldier toanother world. This bit of programmusic was given an inspired per¬formance since the occasion of itsbeing played was the annual Theo-I dore Thomas memorial. The concertI is repeated this afternoon.! The two musical events of mosti note in the near future will be thej Rachmaninoff Concert on the 17th! and the Trude Schoop Comic balletj^on the same date. Trude Schoop re-i turns with an entirely new reper-|toire, and to lovers of ballet as wellas those who wish to spend a delight-! ful Sunday afternoon, a visit to theStudebaker theater will be one thatwill be long remembered.* * A! The gentleman whose records are; included in every complete albumI of popular music, the creator of thefoxtrot “Blue Danube,” is bringingi to the Congress Casino his inimit-I able rhythms and arrangements onthe 27th of this month. That gen-Itleman is Ray Noble, the mustachedj young master of jazz, and his band.The price is none too little but withan evening at the Congress and No-, ble, a ten dollar bill is well invested.Wright Today on theQuadrangles(Continued from page 1)who also want to let Spain settle herown troubles and then recognize thewinner.Prv lessor Wright expressed doubtthat (he American shipment of arm¬aments to Spain will cause trouble.He poiiits out that Mexico has donethe same without difficulty. Thoughit wouldn’t cause much trouble inone instance, if repeated, it mightlead to a great deal of diplomatichedging.“This indicates the need of con¬siderable executive discretion inmatters of neutrality,” statedWright. “A neutrality situation canno more be handled by Congress ora group of legislators than by man¬datory legislation.” He also pointsout that in this instance Americanlegislation has been directed towardone particular case and consequentlyis the better policy.TheHITCHINGPOSTOpen 24 Hours a DayWAFFLECHEESEBURGERCREAM OMELETSTEAK1552 E. 57fh StreetN.

FRITZ« 4t * Maroon Cagers Open BigTen Race Against IndianaPoints to watch in the conferencebasketball opener against Indianatomorrow evening will be the speedof Ken Gunning and Verne Huffman,star Hoosier co-captains, and duel atcenter between Chicago’s lankySwede, Paul Amundsen, and Indi¬ana’s veteran center, Ted Fechtman.The stocky Gunning breaks aroundthe floor until his guard is left be¬hind, and when he dashes for thebasket he seldom misses a shot. Huff¬man, voted the most valuable foot¬ball player in the Big Ten this year,and awarded the annual trophy forbeing the best all-around athlete atIndiana, booms under the basket likea steam engine, using his weight togreat advantage.When Amundsen and Fechtmanmet on the hardwood last year, theMaroon controlled the tip-off, butthe Hoosier excelled in floor play,drawing “Ammy” out into mid-courtand then racing toward the basketwith greater speed than “PonderousPaul” could muster, Amundsen seemsto be faster now than he was lastyear, covering the length of thecourt in three strides, so the centerduel may be very close.>l>The basketeers went through afree-throw drill yesterday, in an ef¬fort to raise the percentage of con¬versions when the referee grantscharity tosses. Johnny Eggemeyerled the squad with a record of 14successes in 16 attempts. OnlyMaurie Rossin and Ken Petersenwere below the 50 per cent mark.* ♦ *Whether Bob Fitzgerald will startat guard, as usual, or at forwai'd inplace of Cassels is still a question inCoach Norgi’en’s mind. “Fitz’s” scor¬ing ability must be utilized, and ifPetersen fills his shoes at guard, theMaroons will gain valuable extraheight. Another question concerningthe team since yesterday is whereJerry Jeremy obtained those brightred trunks which he took to practice. Visitors, Led By Gunningand Huffman, Have Un¬defeated Record.STARTING LINEUPSChicagoCasselsEggemeyerAmundsenRossinFitzgerald IndianaGunningJohnsonFechtmanHuffmanAndresTomorrow night, after a semi-suc¬cessful practice season, the Maroonsinaugurate their conference basket¬ball schedule when they engage In¬diana in the Fieldhouse at 8. ThenMonday, the Midway quintet testsMinnesota in the Gophers’ first con¬ference game, to be played at Min¬neapolis.The Hoosiers, co-titleholders withPurdue, have come up again thisyear with a team typical of those thathave been developed in Bloomingtonin recent years. Led by co-captainsVernon Huffman and Keith Gunning,Indiana has remained undefeatedthroughout a difficult warm-upschedule. They also conquered theirfirst conference foe, when theytrimmed Iowa earlier in the week,28-24.Coach Dean lost only two menthrough graduation, and their posi¬tions have been ably filled by sopho¬mores Johnson and Andres. Thenuclei of the present outfit are thecaptains, both of whom saw serviceon the football team. Vernon Huff¬man, the All-American eager, waswidely recognized as an All-Americanhalfback as well. Gunning, is slatedfor an all-conference forward post,having finished just behind Kesslerand Haarlow in the scoring columnslast year.At center, has been Fred Fecht¬man, 6 foot, seven inch pivot man,who is rated as one of the most cap¬able and agile men in his position.Indiana, however, does not base it.«title aspirations on the play of fivemen. According to coaches Norgrenand Anderson of Chicago, their sec¬ond string outfit has performed ascapably as the starters.The Hoosiers have in past perform¬ ances, shown that they are sharp-! shooters from anywhere on the floorland if not crowded every inch of theway will unleash shots from any po¬sition within reasonable distance ofthe free throw circle. For that rea¬son the Maroon forwards are goingto have a job on their hands.The Maroons’ disappointing dis¬play Wednesday night has served toinspire the boys, and Norgren ex¬pects a more alert bunch on the floortomorrow. Jack Mullins, sophomoreforward injured in the Notre Damegame, will not appear in the lineup.His position will once more be occu¬pied by another sophomore. Bob Cas¬sels. Paired with him will be JohnEggemeyer whose high scoring abil¬ity was effectively checked by theMarquette guards. Paul Amundsen,starting center, after turning in somefine performances did not appear asaggressive as in the past, but Norgrenis confident the lanky lad will oncemore continue to improve. Theguards will be Maurie Rossin,through whom Indiana can not ex¬pect to penetrate for many points;and Bob Fitzgerald, who if giventime to take any sort of aim is like-Jy to connect for a number of ba.sk-ets. Ken Petersen will switch withthe latter two.The Maroons will leave for Min¬neapolis Sunday, where Monday theywill meet the Minnesota outfit, whichhas had about the same luck as Chi¬cago. They opened their season witha series of unimpressive victories oversmall schools, but in the past fort¬night have appeared to be a smooth¬er working team. If the Midwaysquad can reach the heights they at¬tained in the Irish battle, this gamewill be one of the most interestingof the season from the point of viewof the University five. Intramural FencingStarts Thursdayin Bartlett GymIntramurals in fencing will beginThursday in Bartlett gymnasium, Al¬var A. Hermanson, fencing coach, an¬nounced yesterday.Competition in foils will be thefirst event on the schedule, and afew bouts will be staged on theopening day. After the champ in thisdivision has been (downed, aspirantsto the epee and saber titles will havetheir innings. These matches willnot be held until later in the month,however.To a large degree the competitorswill consist of the members of thepresent freshman squad; hut the en¬tries aren’t limited to this group.Any person not. engaging in bouts onbehalf of the varsity is eligible tobecome a contestant.Awards are offered as follows:medals for individual winners in eachof the three divisions, and a cup forthe all-around individual champion.Coach Hermanson indicated thatthis year’s contests, will be of great¬er interest than those st^ed forsome years past, because of the un¬usually rapid development or thefrosh. No experience is necessary tobecome a candidate for the freshmar♦^eam, and many of this season’s out¬fit never saw the foil and mask before entering the University.
