/^ Bad? inaroonVol. 37. No. 92. UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO, THURSDAY. APRIL 15. 1937 Price Three Cent#European WarNot ImminentOaims Potter Strike Committeeto Petition forClass DismissalSays Germany and RussiaAre Not in Position forActual Fighting.“In spite of the predictions of sen-sation-mongering newspaper and lec¬turers, there is no imminent warthreat in Europe,” stated PittmanB. Potter, exchange professor of In- jternational Law, whose place at the jInternational Institute in Geneva is jbeing taken by Professor Quincy'Wright this quarter. jAlthough he said that it was im- |possible to predict peace indefinite-1ly because situations like the Spanish |crisis might cause sudden flare-ups iof animosity. Professor Potter re¬marked that neither Germany nor'Russia was in a position for actual jwar. “Germany is not yet economical- |ly stable, and the Russians prefer apeaceful building up of their coun¬try,” he continued. “Any nation thatmight have been considering war willbe frightened oflf by French and Brit¬ish rearmament programs.” iSpanish Situation |Commenting more especially on jthe Spanish situation. Potter said!that Baldwin’s ban on sending Brit-1ish shipping through to Bilbao doesnot necessarily mean the recognitionof Franco’s right to blockade a Span¬ish port, as the Laborites have in¬terpreted the situation. “It probablyonly signifies that he realizes thebelligerency of the rebel forces andthe danger to British ships, not di¬rect recognition as in the case ofGermany and Italy,” Potter explain¬ed.Although there is no sign of a les¬sening of control in Italy or Ger¬many, Potter pointed out definitesigns of an ebb in Fascist power inother countries. Most promising signwas the overwhelming defeat of theRexist candidate, Degrelle, in Bel¬gium, in spite of his great popular¬ity last fall. In England and Francethere is also an evident decrease inFascist power.Walter Laves of the Political Sci¬ence department bases hopes forpeace on international commerce con¬ferences which may help to relievestrain within the countries. He cit¬ed two successful conferences nowgoing on, the textiles conference inWashington and the .sugar confer¬ence in London.“To prevent war,” Laves .stated,“1 believe there are two methods thatwill be effective. The first is to re¬lieve the tensions which grow out of |insane economic policies, such as thedesire for .self-sufficiency. This maytake the form of low’er tariff agree¬ments or currency stabilization. Thesecond method is to build a peacemachinery so effective that no nationwill dare to go to war.” Petitions to have all 11 o’clockclasses dismissed on April 22 in orderto allow full participation in thepeace strike will be circulated oncampus today and tomorrow for sig¬nature by students and professors.Any students wishing to help withthe distribution may obtain the pe¬titions, which must be returned tothe Maroon office by Friday after¬noon, in Lexington Hall at any timetoday.Thirty-one organizations and eigh¬teen professors are sponsoring thestrike, according to the latest reportof the organizations committee, whichis still contacting faculty members.Any cla.sses wishing to organize arealso invited to send representativesto the meeting of the strike commit¬tee, which will take place next Mon-lay at 3 :30.Organize ClassesMembers of the organizations com¬mittee, which is headed by AnnestaFriedman, will be in charge of get¬ting ten o’clock classes organized togo to the parade in a group.Calls to the parade, containing astatement of parade policy includingopposition to the huge war budget,the Sheherd-Hill Bill for industrialmobilization in time of war, andFascism as a war-making force, willbe distributed today.

Morris Discloses Tentative Plans forFour Year College Philosophy CourseOne philosophic topic a week, tobe dealt with by lectures and discus¬sion groups would be the method ofpresentation of the proposed coursein philosophy for the Four Year col¬lege, if the ideas of the committeein charge are put into effect, accord¬ing to Charles W. Morris, associateprofessor of Philosophy, and chair¬man of the committee.“Take for example the question ofdeterminism,” he said. The proposedprocedure would start with a lectureby a visiting professor from some de¬partment who is specially qualifiedto discuss the question. Then theinstructor in charge of the coursewould comment on his lecture at asecond hour.A syllabus would assemble all therelevant material from the surveycourses which the students have beenWant to Know Something? Ask the Manat the University Information Desk“Hello, this is University Inform¬ation.”“Hello. Could you please tell mehow many ounces there are in anaverage-sized tumbler?”This is one type of question whichis daily fired at the men working be¬hind the Information desk in thePress building. There is an endlessvariety.One man asked, “Is there anythingsmaller than an atom?” Several peo¬ple have queried, “Does the Univer¬sity have a birth-control institute?”One woman wanted to sell her bodyin advance to the school of medi¬cine, because she had heard theyneeded corpses and she wanted a lit¬tle money to spend before she died.“Hello. Is there a Monahan en¬rolled at the University? I think hisfirst name begins with J,” asked athin-voiced lady. After consultingthe student directory, the informa¬tion-dispenser replied, “We have aJ, S. Monahan, Jr.^ here. Do you thinkhe could be the one?” “Well, I don’tGirls^ Dorms Split on Particaption in SitDown Strike Against Chairless DinnersThere’s Bolshevism in Beecher andfeuding in Foster these days, andeven talk of pulling down the firedoor that separates the romantic Kel-lyites from their next door neighbors.Green Hall, serenely situated in thecenter of all the hostilities, seemsto be the last stronghold of peaceand respectability among the girls’dormitories.News from the strike front inBeecher, where initiation of new hallmembers is now going on, confirmsreports that six labor representativesare organizing a sit down strikealong CIO lines, especially on initia¬tion regulations prohibiting sitting atthe table for meals. Winnie Behre,leader of the Counter-Initiation Or¬ganization, when questioned aboutstrike policy, stated, “It’s really amatter of sticking up for our prin¬ciples and refusing to do anythingunder social pressure.”Reject Social CompulsionEqually adamant on the point ofsocial compulsion was Audrey Eich-enbaum, non-striker, who, compliantwith most of the requirements of thecommittee arranging the initiationof 16 girls into Beecher Hall, refus¬ed to wear an orange ski suit on aspring day. Most complaints weresurprisingly registered bv nnti-en«- metics advocates, who were orderedto wear heavy make-up as part ofthe initiation ritual. Other initiationstunts included a burlesque show andsetting up exercises at 5 in the morn-1ing.Tippet Repulses ReporterPerturbed by growing dissension inthe ranks of hall inmates. Miss Mat-tie Tippet, head of the dormitory,told inqi]j|mng reporters that she fail¬ed to se!S*>.why the rebel forcescouldn’t cooperate and appreciatethe fact that it was all in the spiritof fun. This feeling was echoed byShirley Sondel, anti-strike initiate.“I think they’re being foolish aboutsomething that should be very muchfun and not a violation of sacredright,” she said.As an example of the far-reachingantagonisms that may be precipitat¬ed by this conflict, an inter-floor bat¬tle is brewing. This is based on thepoem written under compulsion at5:30 yesterday morning by RuthBrody, second floor conservativestriker. Her rhyme, written on thesubject of the fountain on the thirdfloor, center of initiation arrange¬ments, reads.The fountain on threeIs all wet.So arp thp ppoplp think so,” was the soft response.“You see, the Monahan I am seek¬ing is well over 35 years old.”“How much is one hundred dollarsof 1936 money worth in Greekmoney of the Fifth Century B. C.?”was the brain-tester presented byone serious fact-seeker. And per¬haps even tougher was this question,“What is the name of the professorfrom somewhere in California whohad the exhibit of the glass man inthe World’s Fair inJ933?”Just last Saturday, a fellow wnosounded cold sober called the desk toarrange for a wedding in the Chapelthat evening. Bond Chapel wouldn’tdo; it had to be the big Chapel, andthe organist and the “whole works”had to be there.Irrelevant as these questions mayseem, the fact that the Informationdesk is receiving about five hundredper day of such diversified queries,is an illustration of its broadeningfunction under the supervision ofHans O. Hoeppner, who has restyledit as the University Service Depart¬ment. In the past several years,Hoeppner has developed the bureauin operations and in humanizing in¬fluence to the place which it now oc¬cupies as communicative center ofthe University, and one of the bestand busiest college service depart¬ments in the country.Fifteen thousand dollars in lostand found articles circulate throughthe bureau annually, with everythingfrom false teeth to diamond rings and(Continued on page 3) Circus InvadesCampus at NoonSeniors Olfer Barnum’sGhost as Part of CostumeCarnival.“Peanuts! — Popcorn! — Only adime! ladies and gentlemen, the tenthpart of a dollah!” Yes, it has hap¬pened. The circus is coming to theHome of Higher Learning.

A discussion group wouldserve to bring out the individual stu¬dent’s ideas on the question. Then apaper setting forth the student’s per¬sonal evaluation of the material pre¬sented and conclusions therefromwould be required. A second dis¬cussion would serve to clarify thestudent’s views in the light of theinformation imparted by all his gen¬eral education.Discussions ImportantDiscussion groups would be in thehands of regular members of thefaculty, and the staff would be -com¬parable to that of any of the surveycourses. One proposal of great in¬terest is that the staffs of each ofthe general courses would interlockand circulate from one course to an¬other over a period of years. Thusthe discussion leaders of physical sci¬ence would also in the course oftime take part in each of the othercourses so that faculty and studentsalike would have a common fund ofknowledge.Professor Morris admitted that theproblem of objectivity in teachinghas not been solved for this course.For teaching to be stimulating, theteacher must have convictions andvoice them. Yet such procedure laysone open to the charge of indoctrin¬ation, especially in a field so contro¬versial as philosophy.The solution is the painstakingpresentation of diverse points ofview, preferably by men of convic¬tion. Yet the existence of alterna¬tive points of view must be emphas¬ized, and every effort made to causethe student to do his own thinking.

Holton, be¬fore being unexpectedly called backto Hollywood, announced that thesearch for talent would be postponeduntil he could return to Chicago.Over 40 men and 6 women re¬sponded to the Twentieth Century-Fox call for talent by signing fortests this week. A number of theseaspirants have already been tested.However, those students who havenot yet been contacted by Holton willin no way lose by this delay.In the meantime Holton urges thatmore students sign for the tests.

Slim Acree, whocomes from Dover, Tennessee, a townof 700 inhabitants about fifteen milessouth of the Kentucky line. Slimsays that “you don’t never find ushavin’ any of our dances there inthe city. Everybody heads out intothe country of a week-end, to differ¬ent of the farms thereabouts. Everyweek-end, durin’ the winter months,you kin find all the folks out at somedance or other, all about the coun¬try.”Discusses ExperienceDiscussing his own experience inthe ancient art of the barn dance.Slim, throwing his leg over the armof the chair, and rubbing his beardwith his long, powerful hand, drawl¬ed, “Well it’s been so long ago thatI started that I can’t rightly remem¬ber. Must have been about ten-yearaged w'hen I first learned to dance.‘Course, it’s simple ’nough to learn,though. I ’low you college peoplewon’t have no trouble in learnin’ theropes.” .Speaking of the big southern COONfeuds, the University’s guest fromthe Tennessee hills disgustedly said,“Naw! That’s all tommy-rot—’leasin my part of the country. We hain’seen hide er hair of a feud arouthere for more’n ten year.”Turk Morrill, the other caller, ahardy, stocky fellow, says: “I learneddancing up in the Germaine Lakedistrict, about two spits from theFlambeau Indian Reservation. Thatwas about 1910 or maybe ’08. Mostof my time’s been spent in lumber-jackin’ up in the Wisconsin sticks—on the Eau Pleine, right nigh to theNorth Border.”No FeudsSpeaking of feuds in his part ofthe country, Turk, with a sly winkat Slim proudly asserted, “Thereain’t no feuds ’mongst us! We ain’thill-billies — we’re lumberjacks!”Turk first learned to call becauseof the tendency toward inebriationof the chief caller of his district,who was, nonetheless a fiddler of nosmall ability. “But each dance,” add¬ed Turk, “the jug would finally getthis fiddler and he’d keel over ’longabout eleven o’clock—so we’d draghim over to the side of the room, outof the way.

Leonard SchermerThursday, April 15 1937Scrap the Rushing RulesFraternity men and their organizations havebeen taking quite a beating lately. First, theset-up of the Interfraternity Committee wasseverely criticized by a letter-writer to TheMaroon. Then, a Maroon columnist, althoughhe started out to condemn only the activitiesof the so-called fraternity “scum,” ended bydescribing the general run of fraternity men inparticularly uncomplimentary terms. Finally,a sub-committee of the Board on the Coordi¬nation of Student Interests reported that anychange in the period of intensive rushing andpledging from the Winter to the Autumn quar¬ter would be considered undesirable.It is fairly simple to answer a great manyof the objections and arguments raised in thefirst two instances. Certain of the argumentsadvanced by the faculty committee can alsobe refuted, but to do so would be to make arather futile gesture. Nevertheless, the actionof the administration is by far the most im¬portant of the three, and establishes what musthenceforth be regarded as a fundamental crit¬erion to be followed in the shaping of any fu¬ture interfraternity policies.To put the recommendations of the Univer¬sity into effect, and, at the same time, to safe¬guard the interests of the fraternities, a radicalchange in the rushing code is necessary. Inattempting to shape a new policy concerning( rushing, we must recognize the existence oft. two basic conditions. These are: (1) thatno set of sanctions has yet been devised whichhas guaranteed reasonable observance of therushing rules, and (2) that the University de¬sires the fraternities to develop a plan whichwould not necessitate the establishment ofrules “that make for almost complete separa¬tion socially between . . , fraternity membersand freshmen.”It cannot be denied that the rules to preventillegal rushing, as they have operated the, past few years, are little short of farcical. Be¬yond that, however, we believe that no set ofsanctions can be designed which will put teethinto rules having the objectives of the presentcode. In the first place, it is extremely diffi¬cult to set adequate and effective penalties forviolations of the rules. In the past they havebeen either too mild to deter the fraternitiesfrom illegal activities or too severe to havethem applied by the Interfraternity Committeeand the Dean s office. The suggestion of amonetary penalty, in the nature of a fine, hasbeen offered but never tried, and does, atleast, provide some possibilities.STAFF PHOTOGRAPHEBSDavid Eisendrath Donml Holmqr But this is the least of the problem. Tliecrux of the difficulty lies in the fact that nomethod of determining offenders—that is, notuntil it is too late to punish them—has beendiscovered. The present scheme of havingviolators reported by other houses obviouslydoes not work. The Dean’s office is unwillingto assume responsibility for the observanceand enforcement of the rules. The only al¬ternative is to set up the Interfraternity Com¬mittee as a police force with the task of catch¬ing and punishing all violators. Objections tothis are, first, that the committee is too limitedin both man-power and time to be at allthorough in carrying out such a task, and sec¬ond, that the members of the committee, be¬ing fraternity men themselves, would be hesi¬tant to assume such a role, especially in viewof the difficulty of maintaining an impartialattitude under the circumstances.To eliminate these problems, and to complywith the wishes of the University, the only so¬lution, in our opinion, lies in scrapping thepresent rushing rules and the objectives theyseek to attain. We favor a plan placing norestrictions whatsoever on the number or na¬ture of the contacts between fraternity menor freshmen, and allowing fraternities toschedule rushing functions whenever andwherever they please. The only limitations onthe freedom allowed to the fraternities in thismatter should be the prohibition of rushingfunctions (but not of contacts between frater¬nity men and freshmen) during OrientationWeek and the observance of one day of sil¬ence, with no contacts between fraternity menand freshmen allowed, just preceding the dateof pledging. The Interfraternity Committeeshould be given complete power and respon¬sibility to see that these few restrictions areobserved and to impose substantial fines aspenalties in case they are violated. Limitedfinancial resources of the fraternities would, un¬der this policy, be as effective as anything elsein preventing excess rushing prior to the pe¬riod just preceding pledging.—J. A. K.The Travelling BazaarTHORNTON GOES BIG TIMEThornton Wilder, so the New York Times reports,has abandoned the writing of novels and will hence¬forth confine his efforts to the production of playsfor Broadway. Two years ago he told a reporter,“All my life I have written plays and torn themup.” We wonder if he will now attempt to find thepieces.m *L o57TH STREET TRAGEDY“Jimmy” is dead and buried. Jimmy’s real namewas Demetrios Mourmouris, and for 20 years he hasbefriended the often impoverished artists and writ¬ers of the 57th street colony, and University studentsof the vicinity.The Plaza restaurant at 57th and Harper, or “Jim-mys Pub,” as it is more familiarly called, is by nomeans pretentious. Down one side runs a simplecounter with white stools. The other is lined withsmall, bare tables.But to Jimmy’s came both the cream and thecrumbs of the neighborhood intellects, and Jimmywas equally friendly to all. It wasn’t that Jimmywent out of the way to draw in trade. It was justthat people felt at home there. They used to comeand sit and talk for hours. Thornton Wilder wouldlinger three hours over a single glass of beer. If anartist or writer had hard luck for a time Jimmywould ungrudgingly put the bill “on the cuff.”John Drury, Chicago’s unofficial guide to the city,who lives just around the corner from Jimmy’s, saidof the little Greek restauranteur: “No one else seem¬ed to have the personality and genial manner thathe had. People admired him for his) frankness andcheerfulness, and because he was easy to deal with.The neighborhood will miss him.”* * *MORAL IMPASSEBetas Winston Ashley and Wally Maceo, the for¬mer a poet, the latter a Cuban, went down to theThree Deuces the other night and got rather inti¬mately acquainted with Gladys Palmer, dusky enter¬tainer. Gladys even hinted that she would be gladto come out and entertain the boys sometime—for15 bucks. The house is split on the issue, and aspecial chapter meeting will be held to heal theschism.* * *COULTER SINGEDAn English 102 student, given an assignment towrite an extended definition, chose “photosynthesis”and copied his definition, word for word, from Merle(Coulter’s “The Plant Kingdom.”Back came the paper with severe criticisms oflogic, clearness, parallelism, and general construc¬tion, although grammar was untouched.

Morris, is rather unforgiv¬ably severe in his castigation of fra¬ternity men in Wednesday’s Maroon,Since he does say, however, that fra¬ternity men, on the average, areprobably no worse than other grroupson campus, he must have an extreme¬ly low opinion of the student bodyas a whole.No doubt, Mr. Morris regards him¬self as one of the exceptional “fra¬ternity individuals” rather than atypical “fraternity man.” He doesnot, furthermore, exclude any par¬ticular fraternities from the vituper¬ation of his sweeping generalizations.His own fraternity, therefore, is ap¬parently not to be differentiatedfrom the rest.I am inclined to wonder just whyMr. Morris is wasting his time as amember of a fraternity or as a par¬ticipant in student activities that donot necessitate his “rising above thedead level of mediocrity.” Perhaps itis because he is so bored with him¬self that he does not know what elseto do.

APRIL 15, 1937CerebralSalvage i jaekson Makes Construction PlansI for Public Administration CenterFrom j. C. M.« * *Yesterday’s article in this columnperformed at least one function. Itprovoked no end of discussion. Wewent around all day with an uncom¬fortable sort of feeling—a feelingthat there was no telling when some¬body was going to walk by withoutsaying hello.The most expressible reaction thatit provoked was “Well, what are yougoing to do about it?” This ratherstunned us at first, far after all, it isnot the function of a drama critic towrite plays.But after thinking it over awhilewe thought that there were some peo¬ple on this campus who- might pro¬vide a partial answer—namely, theBetas. • ♦ •Four years ago a small group ofenthusiastic freshmen started to meetduring the noon hour in a room onthe third floor of the Reynolds Club.At first they had big ideas for organ¬izing the freshman class, but laterthey simmered down to a pure dis-cus.>sion club, calling themselvesKnights of the Table Round, whichshortened to Kappa Tau Rho.They were a varied lot, includinga 16 year old dance orchestra lead¬er, a coming poet from Oklahoma, aninsistant Irishman who loved wrest¬ling and Schopenhauer, an ardentEpiscopalian who could reel off pagesof the Book of Common Prayer, a 15year old philosopher who was al¬ready reading Aristotle.* « «To shorten the long story, the boysgot hooked up with humanities’ Nor¬man Maclean. Maclean was a Beta;the Beta chapter here was shot; theBeta alumni had money and werewilling to spend it; so they offeredthe boys the house on easy cashterms.The alumni had different ideasconcerning the conduct of the chap¬ter, but the boys eased them aroundby tactical moves, and started out ona new fraternal tack. Instead ofkeeping meetings secret, they lettheir pledges in, eventually almostabandoned ritual entirely. Althoughthere was opposition, they openedtheir membership to Jews.But most sinificant, they regular¬ly began to do things together thatfraternal groups had not regularlydone in the past. They brought infaculty members for luncheon andevening discussions, and the discus¬sions often lasted for hours. Theyentertained visiting celebrities. Theywent to plays and programs, and for¬eign restaurants, and special church.services—even to Maxwell street.And they talked and talked—about arange of subjects twice as extensiveas that of most fraternal bull ses¬sions.* * *The new order also brought its dif¬ficulties. High strung personalitiesare apt to have sharp, sometimes ir¬reconcilable conflicts. Many of theBetas had high strung personalities.Consequently, some wandered off,temporarily, or for good. Further¬more, they did not do equally well inall directions. Participation in in¬tramurals and activities has beennothing to brag about, though im¬proving.As we have said before, we do notbelieve the Beta experiment providesmore than a partial answer becausewe do not believe they represent atypical cross section of the studentbody. But last January they pledg¬ed 12 men—almost as many as anynotice. Construction plans for the PublicAdministration Center on 60th streetand Kenwood, to be completed by thebeginning of next year, were dis¬closed yesterday by Emery Jackson,University architect.The frontage along 60th street isto be 152 feet, and the building willextend 83 feet along Kenwood. Theblueprints drawn up by Jackson incollaboration with Zantzinger andBorie of Philadelphia call for a rec¬tangular form with east and westwings on the South. The latter havebeen constructed with an eye to fu¬ture expansion, as the possibility isafforded for their extension. Likeother campus structures, the exteriorwill be of Bedford stone and the ar¬chitectural style simplified Gothic.Resume ConstructionBegun last month, this project isthe first campus construction sinceProtest AgainstDeferred Rushingfor Women^s ClubsClub women today voiced strongfeelings of dissatisfaction with thenew set of rushing rules. Approvedyesterday by Dean of StudentsGeorge A. Works, the rules will shiftclub pledging to the winter quarter.This shift has been termed a “re¬gression” by club girls who recall therules of several years ago, when therushing period was done in the win¬ter quarter.Betty Quinn, Sigma, yesterdaystated that she could see no addedadvantages to deferred rushing andcould foresee many disadvantages.Stressing the fact that winter pledg¬ing will probably mean fewerpledges, Quinn explained that shefelt that many of the club orienta¬tion advantages would be lost. Vir¬ginia Clark, a member of Esoteric,said that undue emphasis would beplaced on rushing. “Clubs help withacademic work,” said Clark, “it wouldbe too bad to prolong the peldgingperiod.”Mary Adele Crosby stated that themembers of Quadrangler are un¬animously against the proposedchanges, which will tend to take timeof both club girls and future pledgesfrom their studies. “Instead of de¬ferring the period,” said Laura Berg-quist, “it will prolong it. Added ex¬penses are bounif to be incurred.”Said Doris Gentzler, a member"of ChiRho Sigma, “The system was discard¬ed because it was considered inef¬ficient. There is bound to be toomuch rushing if pledging is put offa quarter.” Genevieve Fish, also amember of Chi Rho Sigma remarks,“I think it is a very bad idea. Themajority of the women have made uptheir minds long before the pledgingperiod is reached.” the completion of InternationalHouse in 1932, and will be the Uni¬versity’s first air-conditioned build¬ing.Four stories in height, the topthree floors of the building will bedevoted to office space for the 14association of public administrationofficials which are to occupy thebuilding. Following the plan usual¬ly adopted in the construction of anoffice building, office space will re¬main unpartitioned until the needsof the occupants are known. Plan ofthe main floor is as follows: north¬west corner—large reception room;northeast corner—library; off theeast-west corridor—large adminis¬trators conference room. Officespace will fill the remainder of thefloor.Special Mailing RoomThe basement will house a largemailing and mimeograph room, a re¬ceiving room with hydraulic lifts, anda section for mechanical equipment.The center will be elevated on aterrace in order to be on a level withneighboring off-campus buildings, asalso it will be in harmony with thepublic structures on the East—St.Paul’s Universalist Church and theOrthogenic School, the latter a Uni¬versity-affiliated institution.

No InterestIn Tuesday’s issue of The Daily Maroon an editorial appearedlamenting the lack of interest in the spring sports award banquet.Further, it was stated that unless some interest in the event wereshown it would be discontinued. In spite of this seemingly signi¬ficant threat, only one person wrote the Maroon asking the con¬tinuance of the banquet.Is this an index of the student interest in, and support of, ath¬letics? Have athletics fallen to so low a level of esteem that noteven the athletes themselves care whether or not their ability isrecognized and honored by the student body? Apparently so.If this banqut is to be kept an annual affair, it can be doneonly with an indication of support from the student body; other¬wise it will be abandoned—one more step toward athletic obscurityfor the University.The Daily Maroon provides an opportunity for students toexpress an opinion on the question and the response to this appealwill probably influence the athletic department in its decision. Thereare too many “breakfast-table” gripers who continually complainabout the sad state of affairs, yet never do anything constructive.The teams may be bad, but the support they get is worse.—E.

The score stood at 6-5 whenthey quit with D U on the short endbut not yet retired. The high scor¬ing gave rise to fear that the changeto slow pitching this year wouldprove unwise. Since the first game,however, was not marked by suchheavy hitting, it was probably dueto sloppy fielding or poor weather.The postponed games may be runoff Friday afternoon. Tennis Team Finishes First WeekOutside; Prepares for WisconsinAlthough forced inside by the rain iyesterday, the varsity tennis team jhas been smoothing out its attackwith daily outdoor practice duringthe past week. With an exception¬ally strong team, they are aiming atthe National Collegiate as well as theBig Ten title.Since the start of the outdoor prac¬tice, the Maroon players have con¬centrated on doubles, being deniedthis practice in the fieldhouse becauseof the Junior Davis cup tournament.Each dual meet this season will con¬sist of six singles and three doublesmatches.When the team opens its seasonagainst Wisconsin on the 23, Nor¬man Bickel will be number 1 man onthe team and will be followed by BillMurphy, Captain Norbert Burgess,Chester Murphy, John Shostrom, andeither Russell Baird, Sol Friedman,John Krietenstein, Herbert Mertz orMuch About NothingYes, we're imitating Lloyd Lewisin printing this column. What’s more,we think it’s a good idea. The troublewith The Daily Maroon sports pageis that there never were enoughteams doing anything to write about,and now the athletic department hascut down the schedules of those thatwere doing something.Therefore, this column is dedicatedto filling up space. If you don’t thinkit will ever have anything in it, don’tread it. You wouldn’t appreciate itanyway.For those of you who are some-thing-or-other enough to be interest¬ed in the Maroon teams, it’s differ¬ent. This column will include every- ithing from what T. Nelson Metcalf is |thinking about to what the athletes ido in their spare time. It may even 'have some news in it occasionally.* ♦ ♦In 1870, a baseball team won for [the University of Wisconsin its first!silver trophy, a cup offered for com- ipetition at the state fair. Sad to re- ilate, the players were not motivated jby the higher things in life. With¬out shedding a single tear of affec-tion, they headed for the nearest jhock shop. There because of the high |price of silver (See Social Science I :syllabus) they disposed of it for $45 |and pocketed $5 apiece for their ef- iforts. Asked to comment on this, 1somebody said, “It might have been iunethical, but it was five bucks.” James Ware in the number 6 spot,Coach Hebert said.The Wisconsin team won two ofits six dual meets a year ago andfinished fourth in point standing inthe Big Ten conference. The Uni¬versity team went through its dualmeet schedule last season without de¬feat but was nosed out of the con¬ference title by a single point, afterannexing the singles and doubleschampionships.Golf Team HoldsTryouts for Meetwith Notre Dame University WomenSeek Court Skillin Ida Noyes GymEager girls in a variety of sizes,types, and kinds of gym apparelbut with a common interest are pa¬tiently devoting three hours a weekto the monotonous task of hitting atennis ball against backboard.In this manner they hope to per¬fect the essential technique that willenable them to change their practiceground from the cold atmosphere ofthe main gym of Ida Noyes to somedusty tennis court with a hot sunbeating down upon them.Miss Marguerite Kidwell, the in¬structor, states that the interest intennis seems to be unusually highthis year.
