Smith at a meeting lastTuesday.Allen Strachan of Detroit, organ¬izer for the Un/ited AutomobileWorkers, who presented the motion,stated that it was an unwarrantedtreatment of students “expressingtheir opinion and sympathies on theGeneral Motor strike, a matter ofpublic interest.’’ The motion wasseconded by Arthur MacDowell, Illi¬nois party chairman.The handbills, titled “Don’t Be aScab,’’ were distributed before theUniversity broadcast on the PontiacVarsity Show, in February, at theheight of the trouble at the GeneralMotors plant in Flint, Michigan,The five students connected withtheir distribution were placed on pro¬bation as a disciplinary measure.They were accused of attempting todisrupt the broadcast.

The man who is conceded to beone of the foremost preachers inthe English-speaking world. Dr. Har¬ry Emerson Fosdick of the RiversideChurch in New York City, will de¬liver the sermon at the first Chapelservice of the Spring quarter Sun¬day morning at 11 in the UniversityChapel. His subject will be “ThePeril of Privilege.’’Dr. Fosdick has long been minis¬ter of the Rockefellers, being atpresent the minister of John D.Rockefeller, Jr., who endowed theUniversity Chapel. Partly becauseof the fact that he knows the Rock¬efellers’ interest in the University,and partly because he is a goodfriend of Dean Gilkey’s, Fosdickhas preached here every year sincethe Chapel was built, except for thetwo times he was unable to comebecause of illness. This Universityis the only one at which he haspreached annually.Fosdick is the only minister inthe country who gives a radio talkevery Sunday afternoon, his pro¬gram being the National Vespers.He has spoken to more peoplehere than any other minister visitingat the Chapel. Because there arehundreds turned away every time hedelivers the sermon. Dean Gilkeyespecially urges that students andfaculty members who wish to hearhim arrive early. However, no tick¬ets will be required for attendanceat Fosdick’s talk, as has been thecase several times in the last fewyears.Playing at the vesper services tobe held Sunday afternoon at 4:30 inthe Chapel, is Frederick Marriott,University organist and carilloneur. “International Journal of SocialEthics,’’ in which six university pro¬fessors take picks on Hutchins’views on the “Higher Learning inAmerica.’’The phrase “No Friendly Voice’’by which the President characterizedpublic reception of his views in anearlier book again proves only aslight exaggeration of the profes¬sorial reaction to Hutchins’ revolu-tionarily reactionary pronounce¬ments; by a majority of four to two,contributors to the journal damnwith faint praise part or all of the“Higher Learning’s’’ dicta.These Professors ReactTaking part in the pot-pourri ofcomment are Charles E. Clark, deanof the Yale Law School; W. PrestonWarren of Furman University;Charner Perry, secretary of the De¬partment of Philosophy; BenjaminF. Wright Jr. of Harvard University;Talcott Parsons of Harvard Univer¬sity; and Richard P. McKeon, deanof the Humanities division.Of the charges made against thePresident’s scheme of higher learn¬ing in the 64 pages of the Journal’sdiscussion, the following are themost important: (1) that the pro¬posed curriculum does not preparestudents for life in contemporary5pciety; (2) that the scheme stiflesFreshman ForumHears Discussioron Court ChangeDiscussing President Roosevelt’sproposed change in the SupremeCourt, two faculty members and aprominent Chicago attorney will ad¬dress the first meeting of the Fresh¬man Forum. The meeting of theForum has been tentatively set forthe week of April 12.A paper in the Social Science Icourse dealing with this proposedchange has been assigned recentlyand the committee in charge decidedon the topic for the symposium be¬cause of several requests from stu¬dents for more information aboutthe subject. Charles Crane, RobertKronemyer, David Landau, andStanley Dodd compromise the com¬mittee.Only one speaker to be securedthis far is Julius H. Meiner, prom¬inent attorney and sponsor of theConstitutional day celebration at theChicago Stadium. For the other twospeakers the committee is contact¬ing faculty members from the SocialScience department and from theLaw School.Freshmen Vocational Survey ShowsPreference for Medical ProfessionFifty-eight percent of freshmanstudents entering the University ofChicago in 1936 had decided whatvocations they intended to follo5s^after graduation, according to a sur¬vey just released by Robert C. Woell-ner, assistant professor of Educationand executive secretary of the Boardof Vocational Guidance and Place¬ment.The class as a whole showed a vo¬cational preference of 19.74 per centfor medicine, 16.97 per cent for edu¬cation, 14.84 per cent for naturalsciences, 13.12 per cent for business,and 11.99 per cent for law.The high rank of education as achoice was due to the interest ofwomen, who made it their firstchoice, 13.3 per cent indicating thatfield of interest. Journalism, medi¬cine, and the natural sciences werenext in preference among the wom¬en.Anlong the men, medicine led asthe choice of 15.34 per cent; withthe natural sciences, 10.84 per madeGuid-1932.cent; law, 9.79 per cent; and busi¬ness, 9.52 per cent, the next rank¬ing vocational choices.Similar surveys have beenby the Board of Vocationalance and Placement since“While lacking full significance be¬cause many students change theirvocational objectives before grad¬uation, the inventories emphasizethe necessity challenging all studentswhether or not they indicate a choiceof vocation,’’ Woellner said.The 1936 census was based on atotal of 626 freshmen reporting.This inventory, as well as those tak¬en of all other freshman classessince 1932, showed that men weremore certain of their vocational fu¬ture than women. Of the 378 menin the 1936 class, 62.9 per cent hadmade their vocational decisions and,of the 248 women, 50.4 per cent.Freshmen with prior vocationaltraining were more decisive than, those who were entering th^ Univer-)sity witliout previous tea ching.

Announcement of the discoveryof a magnificent hoard of Egyp¬tian gold in a Palestinian palace ofabout 1400 B. C. was made recent¬ly by Di\ John A. Wilson, directorof the Oriental Institute, upon re¬ceipt of a report from Gordon Loud,director of the Megiddo expedition.Full details of the discovery are stillawaited, but the report told ofEgyptian cosmetic jars, jewelry,and a fluted bowl in the shape of asea shell. Although the level of thetreasure belongs to the period be¬tween 1500 and 1350 B.C., the styleof many of the pieces suggests thatthey were made in Egypt centuriesearlier and were passed from gener¬ation to generation in the family ofa Palestinian prince.“It is premature to make anyfurther comment on the discoveries,reported until we have added in¬formation from our expedition,”said Professor Wilson. “But theplace and the time suggested by thecable give rise to interesting conjec¬tures.

Foster — Harold SwansonFriday, April 2, 1937Senior’s April FoolThe spirit of April Fool will continue itsreign on campus today at the all-Universityparty sponsored by the Senior class this after¬noon in Ida Noyes gymnaaum. Showing prom¬ise of the greatest activity of any class organ¬ization in several years, the Senior officers andcommittees are providing the campus with thefirst social function of the new quarter, and inreturn should receive the support not only ofall members of the class of '37 but of the stu¬dent body at large.Since the adoption of the new plan, class ac¬tivity has been a rather unusual phenomenonat the University. Class lines are for themost part obliterated, except on two occasionsin the student’s career — when he enters theUniversity and when he is ready to graduate.Even then these lines cannot be drawn withany degree of sharpness. Under such condi¬tions, it is small wonder that many personsbelieve that class organization and the devel¬opment of class unity and spirit are nothingbut meaningless forms of activity.In spite of those who may be thus opposedor generally indifferent to class organizationand functions, we feel definitely that there arecertain positive virtues to be found in the de¬velopment of unity among and the carrying onof activities by members of a graduatinggroup. Perhaps the least, but nevertheless ofsome importance, is the pure enjoyment thatthe members themselves derive from partici¬pating in class functions while they are still inthe University and when they return to it asalumni. Moreover, it is quite possible that asa result of class activity material benefit mayaccrue to the University in the form of a classgift. Finally, by welding the members of theclass together while they are still in school aThe ABC’sLove, Passion, and Infatuation“ail societies recognize that there are occasionaiyioient emotionai attachments between persons ofopposite sex, but our present American culture ispractically the only one which has attempted tocapitalize these and make them the basis of mar¬riage. Most groups regard them as unfortunate andpoint out the victims of such attachments as horribleexamples. Their rarity in most societies suggeststhat they are psychological abnormalities to whichour own culture has attached extraordinary valuejust as other cultures have attached extreme valuesto other abnormalities.^ \ LintoD,^ Th^ivd^ of Man. firm basis is formed for a strong alumni groupto function after graduation.It is both natural and desirable that everystudent should develop an emotional attach¬ment to his University which remains even af¬ter he has departed from the campus scene.Every University graduate wants to return oc¬casionally to his Alma Mater, and to meetagain his one-time fellow students. He alsowants to be able to directly contribute to thefuture welfare of his University. An activealumni organization within the class providesa basis for common interest on the part of itsmembers, centers this interest in the Univer¬sity, and can easily be productive of valuablepromotional support for the University.There are, of course, many students whohave other permanent ties with the University,which take concrete form from time to timein their attendance at fraternity and club func¬tions or at athletic reunions. TTiere are a greatmany others, however, for whom a class or¬ganization represents the only tangible basisfor alumni allegiance and loyalty. It is forthese students, whom we can best term the in¬dependents, that class functions are especiallyprovided-and to whom they are most import¬ant. They are the ones who should be mosteager in their support.—J. A. K.The Travelling BazaarTAILOR TOM’S FIELD DAYAfter catching on himself. Tailor Tom had a lit¬tle picnic all his own at his news emporium in frontof Cobb yesterday. The Maroon’s April foolishnessgave him license to vend his wares with such criesas, “EXTRA, EXTRA! HUTCHINS APPOINTEDTO SUPREME COURT,’’ thereby making suckersout of many credulous souls who really should haveknown better, but didn’t despite their “higher learn¬ing.”There was the sweet young thing who exclaimed,“Isn’t that swell?”There was the man who came running from halfa block away upon hearing Tom’s cry, eagerly thrust¬ing his three cents into Tom’s outstretched mit inhis impatience to get the news.There was the Phi Psi brother who quiered, “Don’tyou think Hutchins is a little foolish to take thejob?”There was the cousin of the managing editor whosaid “terrible,” and wanted her pennies back.There was James Weber Linn, who remarkedthat he could tell the date simply by looking at TheDaily Maroon half a block away.There was C. Sharpless Hickman, who was forcedto take back the nasty things he had said about theMaroon in Echo.There were any number of people who uttered un-printables.* * *SPEAKING OF HOAXESThe Princeton Tiger, humor mag of that cam¬pus, recently reopened its old feud with the DailyPrincetonian by inviting 1700 students, faculty, andalumni to a cocktail party from 12 to 4 in the Prince-tonian’s offices. The Princetonian countered byposting obituary notices bemoaning “the loss of ourlate colleague.

The soda-jerking art is performed entirely by hand, but themilk-shaking art is performed with the aid of thatdemon, electricity. The aim of the soda-jerker artis a complete fizzle, but the aim of the milk-shakingart is complete solidity, although an alternative aimseems to be the complete disguise of the original in¬gredients, which are certain well known animal prod¬ucts.A correlary of the milk-shaking art is the art ofmilk-shake inhaling, which if successful is known asdrinking, but if unsuccessful is not mentioned inpolite society. The locale of this art is what is knownas a booth, not unlike a horse stall, but of which theoccupants are often more human. Along with thebooth goesa female servant known as a waitress,whose function is to make the recipient wait patient¬ly by teasing him with water and cookies.

Further, the trivium wheth¬er called that or not is valuable asordering the curriculum of the indi¬vidual student as giving him a“knowledge of how problems wheth¬er of life or of science or of art havebeen treated and with some insighttherefore into how problems may betreated.” Finally Hutchins expresslypermits history in the “good” curri¬culum.(2) The majority contends thatthe President’s curriculum is bad,as hampering scholarship. Thus saysClark: “.. .the scholar must conformnot to the demands which his ownmind makes of him but to that meta-pysics, that view of the good life,which the university authorities setbefore him.” To which McKeonagain replies: “...It would seemthat just as the opponents of meta¬physics attack as metaphysics pre¬cisely what Mr. Hutchins means bya lack of metaphysics, so the moreenergetic and systematic of the anti-metaphysical philosophers today areengaged in inquiries that fall underthe head of what he calls metapys-ics.”(3) Like John Dewey, Dean Clarkasserts that the Hutchins view iscompatible only with absolutism.“If we are to have rational unity inour universities of today, it can beachieved only by religious or politi-foot by replying: “This is indeed theultimate dilemma of our education:philosophy versus politics as the con¬trolling gruide of life and aine quanon of higher education.. .Politicsimplicitly conceived is the gaining ofadvantages for one's self or groupthrough influence...

APRIL 2, 1937 Page TlireaPlay sThe Thing« * «By jAMES BERNARDOne of the pleasantest bits of newswe’ve heard lately is the announce¬ment of a new series of records, pub¬lished under the name of Mills Mas¬ter Records by Brunswick. The par¬ticular point which thrilled us was theinclusion of Duke Ellington’s orches¬tra on the list of releases whichshould be on sale any minute now.Goodman fans never seem to needmuch advice as to what to buy, sincemost of them are to be found hang;ing around music stores waiting tosnap up the very latest works whichthe master turns out. Let us justmention, in pasing, what a first-raterecord the quartet’s “Running Wild’’is.We have recently run across a ladywhose supply of swing erudition is,to .«ay the least, terrific. We’re talk¬ing about Miss Lillian Tobler whoheads the swing music department atAdam Schaff, 319 South Wabash. Thefirst thing we liked about Miss Tob¬ler was her complete appreciation ofJimmy Lunceford, whom the “highercritics’’ have consistently underrat¬ed. Then, while we comfortably sat atthe counter, she obligingly played ev¬erything we wanted and told us agood many things we hadn’t knownbefore.Speaking of Lunceford, his “Slum¬ming on Park Avenue’’ and “He ain’tGot Rhythm,’’ made for Decca justbefore his present European trip, areexcellent. Other nice Deccas includethe Adrian Rollini Trio, with vibra-harp, guitar and string bass turningout two records of jam “Rebound’’and “Jitters.’’ Also on Decca arethe releases of Stephane Grappellyan his Hot Four. These four stringmen are first rate and the aforemen¬tioned Miss Tobler was one of thefirst to recognizze just how goodthey are. Django Reinhard is asfine a guitarist as we’ve ever heard.Mildred Bailey has left town butyou can get a pretty fine momenta ofher on Vocalion 3449, “Trust in Me’’and “My Last Affair’’ are the num¬bers, and “Mildred Bailey’s Orches¬tra ’’ turns out to feature the hottrumpet of our old friend Roy Eld-ridge of the Three Deuces and theUniversity of Chicago. IncidentallyRoy and his band have done severalrecords for Vocalion, including “Af¬ter You’ve Gone,’’ and “FloridaStomp.’’ Before we forget, too, let usremind you about another Bailey rec¬ord you may have missed, but should¬n’t have. On Vocalion 3378 she singsher great “Long About Midnight’’with “More Than You Know’’ on thereverse side. Her band this timeturns out to be the Goodman-Wilsonbunch, with Teddy at the piano, as- jsisted by Cozy Cole, Harry Finkle-man, John Kirby, et al.Bob Crosby, whose great Dixelandis packing them in at the CongressCa.sino, to hear Kay Weber, Ray Bau-duc, Nappy Lamarr and the rest ofhis top-notch band, will give two con¬certs in town this month. One willbe a testimonial to the ailing Joe Sul¬livan, the other for the benefit of theChicago Cradle Society.THREE MONTHS* COURSEFOt COUIGI STUOeNTS AND GBAOUATMA thoromgk, inUnaw*, atmcgraphie eoun»-tt^rting jimHary 1, April 1, July 1, Octobrr 1.Imiarmting DookUt sent/ng, mthout obUgsttom—writa or phone.

Editor,The Daily Maroon:On Monday, March 29th, DeanSmith, acting for the University,placed five students on probationfor distributing leaflets condemningsupport of the Pontiac Company’sVarsity Show. The reason for thisaction was that the students violat¬ed a University regulation prohibit¬ing leaflet distribution on campuswithout University permission.This University regulation wasobviously created for the reason thatthere exists on the U. of C. campussuch organizations as the A.S.U.,the Communist Club, the SocialistClub, the Peace Council, etc., whichdepend, to a large extent, on thedistribution of literature to putforth their views. Not always do theviews of the University coincide withthose of certain campus organiza¬tions, and when this state occurs, itbecomes quite obvious as to whichside of the proverbial fence theUniversity rests its cumbersomeweight.A thing we must remember is thattear gas, rubber hose, clubs, thugs,etc., that go to make up the gentleart of strikebreaking, are not pro¬cedures listed by Emily Post, andin answering them it is .sometimesawkward and impotent to do so witha cup of tea in one hand and acookie in the other.In the particular case now at hand,we have more in the balance thanjust the question of legality or il¬legality. Beneath this flimsy chem¬ise of debatable legality lie the fardeeper and more significant issuesof organized and unorganized labor,of the tie-up between student andlabor, of the whole concept of aca¬demic freedom.The workers of General MotorsCorp. were out on strike when thePontiac Show was staged. Theseworkers, under the guarantee of theWagner Labor Law, were fightingfor recognition of their union, were fighting for better pay, better livingconditions. The strongest, and only,method the workers have of fightingthe gigantic capitalist machine is toorganize, to gain popular support fortheir cause. The validity of theworkers’ right to fi^t for betterliving conditions and against theirexploitation by the “economic roy¬alists’’ cannot be denied. When thefive students distributed leafletsproclaiming “Don’t Be a Scab!’’,they wiere supporting the striking)workers. Those students, includingeditors of The Daily Maroon, whotook offense at this action, were sup¬porting, wittingly or unwittingly,the strikebreaking, labor-exploitingtactics of General Motors.The future of democracy in thiscountry is in the hands of the labormovement. Without organized laborbehind us, we stand helpless beforethe bloody and barbtarian axe ofFascism. Every weapon, every meth¬od, every action that the studentcan summon and utilize in order tohelp and strengthen the workingclass must be used immediately andeffectively if we are to avoid thefate of Germany and Italy.Paul Berg.Make New’ Chang-esin Spring ScheduleCourses Added:Mathematics 103b, Plane Anal.Geometry, 9:00, Niven, Eckhart207; Physics 347, Spectometry II,Arr., Monk; Oriental History 348,Topics in the History of ChineseCivilization, Arr., Creel; Anthropol¬ogy 312, Field Studies in Anthropol-ogy, Arr., Warner.

Thurstone, professorin psychology, has just finished ad¬ministering a test to a group of Uni¬versity students, by means of whichhe attempted to isolate and identifya few of the primary mental abilitiesof individuals with the use of newstatistical methods. To date the re¬sults have not been tabulated, but Dr.Thurstone has issued a report to eachof the examinees on the method thatwill be employed in grading the pa¬pers.According to the report, each in¬dividual was tested for the presenceof these factors: Factor P, quick per¬ception of visual or verbal detail; N,facility with simple numerical work;F, recall of words; W, ability to dealreadily and quickly with verbal ma¬terial; V, visualizing ablity; M, mem¬ory factor; I, ability to discover somerule or principle out of a situation;R, arithmetical reasoning; D, deduc¬tive reasoning. The students whotook the examination, and others,may arrange indivmual conferenceabout this report with Robert C.Woellner, Director of the Bureau ofVocational Guidance and Placement.Woellner characterizes the experi¬ment as being of great interest, andrich in potential value.However, it should be understood,according to the report, that in spiteof a lack of certain of the fundamen¬tal requirements decreed for a defin¬ite profession or occupation, by dintof exceptional self-development, anindividual can successfully forge hisway into the occupational group thatappeals to him.

Thirty-one firing points, j19 at a distance of 100 yards fromthe targets, and 12 that are 50 yards jfrom the targets. Everything has jbeen cleared from the middle of the !floor of the huge building with theexception of the basketball floor.The firing points consist of araised platform, a foot in height,covered by a grym mat. All 31 arestretched out along the East end of Ithe Fieldhouse in one straight line.!The 19 center points are to be used |for the 100 yard distance and the iflanking points, six on each side,:are for the fifty yard shooters. The jline of fire runs directly across the |stadium, the targets being at the!West end of the arena. The fifty jyard targets are located halfway be- {tween the 100 yarders and the fir-'ing points. iBattery of Lights 'A battery of 200 electric lights has ;been set up to provide illuminationfor the shooters. Only 120 will beused, the rest being there in caseof an emergency. The front lineof “foot lights” is placed two feetin front of the targets. The bulbsare protected from bullets by atwo-by-four plank, and a thin sheetof steel. These bulbs are the 60Watt type.The second line of lights is placedbetween the official target at whichthe shooter aims and the “backing”target, which is plain white paper.This white paper reflects the lightthrough the holes made in the fronttarget by the shooter and enableshim to sight his shots fx’om the fir¬ing line.Hang Huge CurtainsThe large windows at the Westend of the stadium, immediately be¬hind the targets, have been cover¬ed by huge curtains, shutting outall light that might interfere with the shooters sight. Besides the lightsshowing on the targets, no otherligts will be on except for a fewsmaller ones in back of the marks¬men.The target racks were made bythe members of the Rifle club. Theymade two sets, one to be equippedwith new targets, while the otherwas being fired upon. The Pit De¬tail, 12 men, attend to this phaseof operation. They work in a steel-walled booth set to one side of theline of fire.Nineteen one-quarter inch i^heetsof steel are being used to stop thebullets after they hit the targets.These plates are set at a forty-fiveangle to the ground. The bullets, uponhitting them, deflect into the ground.The “pit” is made from the sametype of steel plate.Erect Spectators’ StandsAbout twenty feet in back of thefiring line, stands have been erect¬ed for spectators. No spectator isallowed to approach the firing line.Next to the stands is the Chief RangeOfficer’s tower. The Public Addresssystem is operated from this point.The range officer gives his commandsto the shooters over the P. A. sys¬tem. Telephones will connect thetower to the pit, enabling the rangeofficer to tell the members of thepit detail directly when to go outon the range and change targets.The basketball clock will be utilizedfor the timing.Warner Bros.LEXINGTON THEATRE1162 E. 63rd St.Today and Tomorrow**Lloyds of London” • '“Mind Your Own Business”Hanley’sBuffet1512 E. 55th St.IF YOU WANT COLLEGESONGS—IF YOU WANT “COLLEG¬IATE” ATMOSPHERE—IF YOU WANT TO SEEYOUR CAMPUS FRIENDS—YOU ARE ASSURED OFSUCH AN EVENING ATHANLEY’SOver forty years of congenialservice ARE THESETHEBEST-DRESSEDONCAMPUS? ? ?Cast your vote for the beat dressed man and i dressed man is «.best dressed women today in the Maroon andPhoenix Offices. ■ The best dressed woman is -At This You Can Join inShooting TomorrowYou too may shoot at the Riflemeet.So that spectators may get wellinto the spirit of things Carl Hen-rikson, of the Business school, whois manager of the affair, has fur¬nished, for you to use, for tencents, a lot of pistols, which aren’tpowerful, but shoot.And, of course, there isn’t anyadmission price to the whole affair.weather the large gym in Ida Noyeswill be used).
