UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO, TUESDAY, MAY 4, 1937 Price Three Cent*Award GambrellRicketts Prize forWork on MalariaFor her demonstration that thegametocyte sta^, |pr ‘infectious”'period, of malaria is a function ofmalaria parasites themselves, and notof their host. Dr. Winton ElizabethGambrell has been awarded the How¬ard Taylor Ricketts prize by Dr. W.H. Taliaferro, dean of the Divisionof Biological Sciences, it was an¬nounced today.Dr. Gambrell, who received herdoctor’s degree in the Spring Con¬vocation of the University last March.• • • I is now an Instructor in BacteriologyFraternities on this campus are so- jcial organizations composed of stu¬dents of the University. The princi¬pal function of students of the Uni¬versity is the development of theirintellectual powers, but at the sametime they must sustain the “animal”part of the natures, i. e. they musteat, sleep, and have emotions, or feel¬ings. The prize was established in hon¬or of Dr. Howard Taylor Ricketts,University of Chicago bacteriologistwho discovered the germ of typhusfever and died a martyr to his dis¬covery while working in Mexico.Awarded annually on May 3, anni¬versary of Dr. Ricketts’ death, theprize is given to a student in the Daily Maroon Is Commendedfor NSPA First Class RatingAs social organizations, fratemi- of Pathology or Bacteri-ties are primarily concerned with thisnon-intellectual side of man. Theor¬etically then, they must not be cen¬sored for not doing something (con¬tributing to intellectual develop¬ment) which they do not attempt.However, it must be rememberedthat the good of the whole fraterni¬ty may best be achieved by achiev¬ing the good of its separate members,and they are primarily students.Therefore, fraternities should be heldanswerable for seeing that they donot obstruct the intellectual develop¬ment of their members.s « sMoreover, fraternities are so in¬timately bound up with the daily lifeof their members that the dis¬tinction between the intellectual andthe non-intellectual is an unreal one.Therefore, unless a fraternity takescollective cognizance of the intel¬lectual development of its members,it will intellectually starve themthrough neglect rather than throughintention.Fraternities fail to take their prop¬er place in the university becausethey take almost no notice of the in¬tellectual life. Their influence is notactively anti-intellectual; it is pas¬sively neglectful. A fraternity doesnot discourage a man’s intellectualendeavors; it simply supplies otherapparently innocent activities( goingto nightly shows, indulging in afriendly game of bridge or black¬jack, aimless reading, pointless con¬versation) which gradually encroachupon more and more of his free timeuntil he becomes an intellectual dul¬lard. ology for the most notable researchwork of the year.

This was due not only to the diversityof vocabulary of the speakers, the lack of uni¬form intellectual background of the audience,and the necessarily limited time which pre¬vented discussion of the really crucial issues in¬volved, but also to the refusal to appear ofthose whom The Maroon has previously char¬acterized as friends of the President s plan.(An oversimplification incidentally as thereare fundamental philosophical differences be¬tween Professors Adler, Buchanan, andSchwartz.)As Professor Keniston slyly remarked afterhearing the three speakers on “Science andPhilosophy in the Twentieth Century,” theparliament turned into a “love feast” with ev¬eryone agreeing with everyone else exceptGerard, who being first had no one to agreewith. Apparently the essential agreementamong the speakers is traceable to implicit ac¬ceptance of the truth of dilemma—either phil¬osophy is idle speculation or philosophy hasno empirical content or philosophy’s empiri¬cal content is identical with the empirical con¬tent of the natural experimental sciences.If one or all of “Hutchins’ friends” hadbeen present, the issue would have beensharpened through presentation of a meaningof philosophy (and of metaphysics as a partof philosophy) which breaks sharply with thisdilemma by asserting philosophy to have ex¬periential content of its own.Then the province of philosophy is theprovince of experience common to all men (asopposed to the province of natural science—laboratory experience or experience underspecial conditions). Philosophic propositionsare such propositions as “man under¬stands, ” “a thing acts according as it is,” etc.Metaphysical propositions are merely proposi¬tions of this character which are most general¬ly applicable. Further one philosophical sys¬tem is better than another not only because itformulates with more precision questions whichare then turned over to the exact empirical sci¬ences (Mr. McKeon’s criterion of the worth ofa philosophy) to l^e answered, but because itspropositions convey ideas corresponding moreexactly to the nature of things and to thenature of our experience (Mr. Adler’s criterionof the worth of a philosophy.)What then is the relation of philosophy aswe have used tK<* to experimental sci¬ ence? It is clear that the relation is primarilycorrective. When Einstein inquires in purelymathematical terms whether or not the uni¬verse is infinite, philosophy steps in and says:“Aha! Mr. Einstein you have now oversteppedthe bounds of empirical science into the purelyconceptual domain of mathematics. Man canneither sense nor understand the ‘universe.’You are really talking only about numbers.”tp * if-But if you are a traditional modern man youwill say this is all speculative and trivial. Asa practical man. science is all you need. Pro¬fessor Gerard apparently expressed this viewat the symposium Wednesday when he saidthat “science gives practical values.” On thecontrary, science alone only provides means.Which is clear from the fact that cannon andcanned goods have both been gifts of scienceto Spain in 1937, And Communism and Chris¬tian Science are both “scientific.” As a mat¬ter of fact everyone acts with a philosophy,and every voluntary act presupposes a phil¬osophy. The problem, as President Hutchinsmakes clear in “The Higher Learning in Amer¬ica,” is to make philosophy explicit in such away as to cull the good from the bad. TTiiswould be done in the ideal university throughsearch for philosophic principles.To this position Professor McKeon repliesby saying that every philosophy ultimatelybreaks down as empirical knowledge; that ev¬ery philosophy is founded on belief which isunfounded in experience; that this is the fun¬damental reason for the existence of manyphilosophies. Undoubtedly true, this is mere¬ly another way of saying that man’s knowledgeis limited, and that even intelligent action maybe in error. However, in practice we mustact; our actions imply a certain philosophy; toact as intelligently as is in our power our philo¬sophy must conform as closely as possible toexperience; to find this best philosophy mustthen be one of the prime tasks of the progres¬sive university; and to this task we must nowturn. This is not to seek to teach one philo¬sophy but to seek to find one by examinationof all.—E. D. G.EPIC OF THE PRESSLast Thursday’s Bazaar, you may recall, car¬ried the story of how Jean Jacob is breaking NUtradition by invading her Interfraternity Ball withnone less than Hank Spanjer, co-chairman of theaffair. The prediction was made that NU coedswould react violently.On the same day the Daily Northwestern quer¬ied whether the local women “longed famed for theirbeauty” had slipped “beneath the level of HankSpanjer?” It went on to state that “sorority cir¬cles buzzed . . . with protests against this slightto their dignity,” and that the Maroon had calledto demand “why it was necessary for Northwesternto steal Chicago’s Queens” and that “the Universityof Chicago is really up in ffrms. Editorials and stor¬ies in the Maroon this week have blistered both MissJacobs for deserting them in their hour of need, andNorthwestern males for dealing in contraband ofsocial activities.”The grossest misstatement was that Jean wasto have “reigned” over the opening night of Black-friars, which date she broke to be present at theNU I-F Ball.The story closed with “And while Spanjer has hisdate, he also has something else. The wrath ofNorthwestern’s coeds. Will the sororities let theslight pass unnoticed? Or will they invade the Mid¬way to see Miss Jacob? And, too, will Chicagomales come to Evanston to coerce Spanjer intobreaking the date? The campus awaits.”The climax came the next morning in Hearst’s Her¬ald-Examiner, for here, under the head “New TrojanWar Looms in Chicago” appeared a full column storyincluding a picture of Jean and Spanjer.A sub-head asserted “N.U. Student ‘Kidnaps’ U,of C. Girl” and the story went on to compare the“situation between Northwestern University and theUniversity of Chicago right now’ ’ as “strikinglysimilar to that which first put the name of Helenof Troy in bright lights.”Then, the final paragraph, “Just to complicatethings, the sorority girls at Northwestern, a schoollong noted for its feminine beauty, are mutteringominously about why Spanjer had to pass them allup for a girl from the rival institution. It isn’tsettled yet.”In case you haven’t seen through the whole thing,as the papers certainly didn’t, it was just a publicitygag for Hank’s Ball. Hank never dreamed the stuntwould get out of control so far that even the A.P.would call the principals for pictures demanding“Are you hi love,” and ^Are you jtngaged?*' Lettersto the EditorTROTSKYITE TALKSDear Editor:I have been a member of the ASUsince its inception but have neverbelonged to the Socialist or Commun¬ist Club. However, I cannot helpexpressing an opinion on the con¬spicuous anti-Trotskyite gesturesmade by the latter group. May Itherefore address the members ofthe Communist Club.You maintain that “Trotskyism”which on campus is represented bymany members of the Socialist Clubis harmful to social progress and“renders objective aid to fascism.”Whether this is so or not is not myconcern now. If your sincerity ispresumed, and I think it should be,you should be granted the right toyour own opinions and to the expres¬sion thereof.But what are the methods youhave chosen to convince the campusof the logical and empirical correct¬ness of your position? You have heldlectures on the Moscow trials. Thatis very fine. But what happened atthese lectures? The question periodwas con.siderably emasculated byhaving the questions written out or/and answered at the option of theCommunist speaker. Opportunitywas refused to the opposition to makeeven a five-minute statement of theirposition, although there was no at¬tempt to disprove their claim thatthis time had been promised thembefore the meeting. Such high hand¬ed and undemocratic procedures onthe part of a minority group whichhas long protested like treatment ofitself on the part of others, is utter¬ly incomprehensible. That this shouldbe done by those whose newest andmost popular slogans are “For de¬mocracy” and “Communism is 20thCentury Americanism” is further in¬explicable.Moreover, when you, the Com¬munist Club members were cordiallyinvited, then re-invited and finallychallenged by the Socialist Club youdebate the issue so vital to both or¬ganizations, you refused, as if youwere being asked to share some fasc-' ist torture chamber rather than anacademic rostrum.In ASU committee meetings someof your members have befogged is¬sues by labelling socialist proponentsof certain programs “Fascist Agents”rather than discussing the merits oftheir proposals. In your peace strikeliterature, in every possible situation,you have resorted to such verbal ex-1 pectorations as expose nothing so jmuch as your own frenzy.The most recent gesture was thelittle notation you went out of yourway to make at the bottom of theleaflet advertising your lecture onDialectical Materialism this Monday.! It read: “Out of consideration forj B and G please do not litter the cam¬pus by throwing this around a» if itwere a Trotskyite leaflet.” (Boldfacemine).As humor this is flat. As face it isworthless. What then can be the pur¬pose of this constant villification?But if this is not the role you wishto play, if instead you would repre¬sent yourself as an organization witha “scientific” program and goal, allparts of which are open to examina¬tion and discussion, an organizationwith dignity and intellectual integ¬rity you must reconsider this shabbytactic of backbiting.This you owe not only to yourself,but also to all the progressive organ¬izations on campus, whom this boom¬erang slander has injured.An honest response is awaited withgreat interest.S.A.F. thought—or the lack of it—on thiscampus.One cannot disagree with Mr. Bar¬den’s comments on the status of theconservative mind on the campus.The conservative student reads littleand thinks less. He scorns noveltybecause he does not understand; and,like the practical man, proceeds topractice the errors of his ancestors.The new plan of the University doesnot concern him. His attitude onthis matter is completely rational, forthe plan in its most significant as¬pects will not affect him. He will notpermit the higher learning to im¬pinge upon his equanimity.We can find no fault with Bardenfor insisting that students ought toread, especially before they condemn.Barden is fully within his rightswhen he urges students to read Mr.Hutchins before they register theirapproval on opposition. It seems thatMr. Hutchins is well on the way tobe canonized as a classic, and to rivalShakespeare as the man who is mosttalked of and so little read. Bardenis also correct when he says that Mr.Hutchins has no intention of makingCatholicism or Neo-Thomism supremeon the campus. Those who havebeen at the symposium last Wednes¬day night will recall that ProfessorsMorris and McKeon have made sim¬ilar denials in regards to Mr. Hutch¬ins’ intention. Moreover, those whowould take the unusual course ofreading Mr. Hutchins will come tothe same conclusion.Barden, however, in this enthsiasmfor his subject has been somewhat.severe in his criticism of the progre.s-sive wing of the student body, i wasalso surprised to find that the con¬structive activities of the AmericanStudent Union have received no men¬tion in his communication. This isall the more surprising as Bardenhas generally been .sympathetic withthe objectives of the ASU. Barden,I suspect, had embarked on a fault¬finding venture and .so omitted theconstructive features of the left wingposition.When I arrived upon thi.s campusI was surprised to learn that therewas a conflict between so calledAristotelians and the left wing group.The Aristotelians claimed that theradicals do not think; and the rad¬icals charged that the Aristoteliansdo not act. So far as 1 am awarethere is no single homogeneous groupon this campus organized as the Mili¬tant Order of Aristotle or St.Thomas, whose function is to ferretout the heresies of the Left, or toheap confusion upon the radicals byasking impertinent, if not irrelevantquestions. The radicals, however,point out that the exclusive preoccu¬pation with Aristotle and St. Thomashas negatized student interest in thecontemporary social scene, in thestruggle for civil liberties and in thefight against fascism now menacingthe entire civilized world. If thisview is correct the difficulty is notwith metaphysics as such but withthe disproportionate time given to it.How one may properly adjust histime between contemplation and so¬cial action cannot be answered withease.Neither is intelligence or organiz¬ing ability lacking in the Left wing movement. The various symposiumsor discussions the radicals have spon¬sored—whether on the question ofpeace, the Supreme Court, or Span¬ish Democracy—have proved thatthe radicals possess an admirablesensitivity to social issues and a com¬mendable ability to give these issueswell organized expression on thecampus. Without their awarenessand vitality the intellectual life onthe campus would easily become in¬nocuous and barren. Whether or notyou like their answers you cannot ig-n>)re their questions. Their questionsare a challenge to the Right and musthe sincerely met.The Marxist on this campus is afunctionalist through and through.He has taken to heart a Marxian re¬minder to distinguish between an in¬stitution and the ideology by whichit seeks to justify itself. All intel¬lectual systems, however abstruse,must be judged by the institutionsinto which they are embodied and bythe human agencies which controlthese institutions. . Thus the state isviewed not as an organic or as an ab¬solute sovereignity in which aremerged the common interests of thepeople. The problem of the state isresolved into a question for politicalpower to control the system of pro¬duction and distribution. The Marx¬ist judges religion not by its brevi¬aries or devotional tracts but by theinstitutional powers religion wieldsin the formulation of social policy.If the religious issue has once beensettled at Nicea it is now being re¬tried on the battlefields of Spain.He is fully aware of the importancewhich fascism attaches to the ideol¬ogical framework built about its so¬cial and economic system. Mussolinirevises his corporative state everythree or four months; Hitler’s co¬horts regularly produce new myths tofeed a hungry population; andFranco imports Moors to save Chris¬tianity in Spain. The Marxist’ssearch for social evaluation of allsystems has a measure of truth thatcannot be ignored. He claims thathe who preaches reaction in the nameof Aristotle or St. Thomas eitherdamns himself or the system that hasgiven him a vicious intellectual arm¬ory.Aaron Levy.DREXEL THEATRE8S8 E. 63rdTues., Wed., Thurs.“GIRL OVERBOARD”“STAR OF MIDNIGHT”Warner Bros.LEXINGTON THEATRE1162 £. 63rd St.Last Time Today“GREEN LIGHr’“THE HOLY TERROR”Wednesday and Thursday“PAROLE RACKET”“SING ME A LOVE SONG’BOMBARDING BARDENEditor,The Daily Maroon:I am not in a position to speak of¬ficially or unofficially for any stu¬dent group.

TUESDAY, MAY 4. 1937 Page Hiree -i '“There” Reorganization of Geology DepartmentFollows Hutchins^ Plan of Education Ricketts(Continued from page 1)By DENNIS McEVOY'« * *Our little Japanese friend did notgo back to Japan to see his belovedcherry blossoms—he went to theflower show instead. And this morn¬ing he returned to Chicago with a bigsmile and a promise to stay for somelime.Togo is his name. He stands aboutone foot higher than a yardstick andwears horn rimmed glasses so thickthat you never know whether he islooking at you or the horizon. Withhim were the inevitable briefcase andcamera that the Japanese love sowell; in fact, this is a good way totell them from Chinese.We drove to the Circle and joineda crowd of students who were tak¬ing sun baths on the grass. Aftermaking a few comments on the re¬turn of spring, Togo spoke for awhile on Sakura Odori, a dance tocherry blossoms which is now goingon all over his native land. Withmisty eye he told of hundreds of jbeautiful geishas in bright colored jkimonos dancing to the tune of weird jdrums and even weirder string in-1.struments. He almost wept as he de- i.scribed the scene. . . dancers swaying jrhythmically down flower lined laneswhose scene was so strong that thevery air, the trees seemed heavy withthe fragrance. And he broke downcompletely as he spoke of a land-.scape dotted with submerged ricefields whose shimmering surfaces re¬flected the snow covered peak ofFujiyama. . .his enchanted mountain.He was attracting attention withhis oratory and impa.ssioned gestures.so we shunted him oflf onto a siderail dealing with the religious life ofthe University. Said Togo, wipinghi.s reddened eyes:“I have been hearing lately ofquestions which are rocking your uni¬versity to its very Baptist core.Strange tales they are, tales ofwhether scientists should acknowl¬edge the exi.stence of metaphysics ornot. These questions are trivial. Farmore important is a function of anyuniversity or educational institutionand this function is what p oo,thmpand this function is what f)eople now¬adays laughingly refer to as “charac¬ter building.” The importance of thisfunction has been forgotten.When President Hutchins told agraduating class that he was worriedabout their morals, he was not think¬ing of an occa.sional alcoholic eve¬ning. Behind this statement lay arealization that learning in a Univer¬sity was purely for a gainful end andthat this end, per se, was not to bedesired. The accumulation of factsI believe, and “learning” how tothink, whatever that nebulous termmeans, are secondary (but not unim¬portant) to the acquisition of an ethi¬cal code.Catholics will go to church on Sun¬day and slit a competitor’s throat onMonday morning. This is hardlycricket. Religious ethics must bemade business ethics and one solu¬tion is political reform which can onlybe of a violent nature. For any com¬plete reform must involve violence—pulling out by the roots always in¬volves greater effort than choppingdown.But there is yet another solutionand that is the teaching of religion inschools not in the form of logic-tight,theological platitudes but with great¬er emphasis on ethics; not the teach¬ing of any particular religion, for allstudents of ethnology have said es¬sentially the same thing—Christ,Buddha, Mohammet, Lao Tsu,Chuang Tsu, Confucius, et al. I, forone, am not concerned about a tri-anglar blur who watches my everymove. But I am interested in fur¬thering harmonious relationshipsamong men.This is not a scientific analysis ofthe problem because emotionally I Comingicloser to the theory of gen-1eral education and orientation ofknowledge than any one of the pres¬ent College survey courses exceptHumanities, the Geology departmentchallenges every other department ofthe University in its recent shake-up of its College sequnce. Geology101, 102, 103, announced last week,which will go into effect next fall.Beyond a doubt the movement isdirectly in line with President Hut¬chins’ attempt to limit the moderntrend toward complete specializationin higher education. In the wordsof William C. Krumbein, instructorin Geology, “We are presenting heretwo courses which are not in anysense simply for the purpose of pre¬senting a technical introduction to adivision. The Geology department isgiving two courses which are entire¬ties in themselves, and which may betaken to advantage by any studentwhether or not he intends to special¬ize in Geology.” In these courses Geo¬logy is presented in relation to thephysical sciences, the biological sci¬ences, and the social sciences, andtherefore may be of value to any stu¬dent in these divisions.For Social Science StudentsGeology 101 A, 102A, 103A, thefirst of the two courses which re¬place the former college sequence, isdesigned to meet the needs of stu¬dents interested primarily in the phy¬sical sciences, and to some extent stu¬dents in the social sciences. The firstquarter’s work concerns rocks, min¬erals, and geological processes, andis designed to acquaint the student with his physical environment. Thesecond quarter’s, work includes a con¬sideration of the major economic re¬sources of the world-ores and fuels,and their geologic occurence and ex¬ploitation. In the Spring quarterthe student will become acquaintedwith the principles of historical geol¬ogy, and will learn of the geologicalevents of the past which helped toshape the earth into its present sur¬face configuration.The second course. Geology 10IB,102B, 103B, is designed to meet theneeds of students interested primar¬ily in the biological sciences, and tosome extent in the social sciences, es¬pecially anthropology.Consider Geologic ForcesThe first quarter’s work includesa consideration of geologic processesand the forces that shaped the pres¬ent surface of the earth. In theWinter quarter the student will be¬come acquainted with the early his¬tory of the earth, with special refer¬ence to ancient fauna and flora,treated morphologically and ecologfi-cally. Finally, in the Spring quarterthe later history of the earth willbe presented, during which the ver¬tebrates rose to dominance; here theevolutionary thread will be wovenin as an essential part of the story,and the early development of manwill be traced.In both sequences the aim of thecourses is to afford the student anopportunity fto become acquaintedwith the physical environment, andwith the forces that have shaped theenvironment through past ages. Gambrell’s work showed otherwise,to some cause in the human host.Much of Dr. Gambrell’s study wasmade possible by the use of a strainof avian malaria in the Ricketts, lab¬oratory. Avian malaria lacks com¬pletely the gametocyte stage and canbe propagated only by means oftransfer of blood from one animal toanother. This avian strain was usedfor purposes of comparison with thestrain which does have the game¬tocyte stage.PLEDGINGQuadrangler announces the pledg¬ing of Ruth Hauser, of Milwaukee,Wisconsin.

Studebaker, United StatesCommissioner of Education, andhead of President Roosevelt’s Fed¬eral Board of Vocational Educa¬tion, declared, “The college daily orweekly, whichever the case may be,plays a large and important partin the education of the general stu¬dent* body. The recent honor ratingawarded The Daily Maroon by theNational Scholastic Press Associa¬tion places that paper among themost outstanding of the college pub¬lications. I extend my sincere con¬gratulations.”Oliver Owen Kuhn, managing ed¬itor of the Washington Daily Star, the Capital City’s leading newspa¬per, and President of the Associat¬ed Press Managing Editors Asso¬ciation, stated, “The recent honor'accorded The Daily Maroon, of theUniversity of Chicago, is indeedgood news. A first class honor^rating by the National Scholastic''Press Association is something ofwhich boht the University and thestaff of The Daily Maroon may wellbe proud. I extend my hearty felic¬itations.”The Daily Maroon was also re¬cently awarded a first class honorrating by the Associated CollegiatePress Association. While this dis¬tinction is not as high as “All-Amercan,” it nevertheless placesThe Daily Maroon in a class withsuch papers as the Columbia Spec¬tator and others.University Journals Cater to WideClientele of Intellectual Readers(Conthtued from Thursday)A medium for the interchange ofideas for the last forty years.

Chamberlin, professor ofGeology.The Journal of Religion, a non¬sectarian periodical, promotes theunderstanding of religion in all itsphases. It provides an unprejudicedcritical account of modern religiousactivities and their interpretation byindividual character. Special articles f religious leaders of all denominationsare run at intervals on ethicalthought in various countries and onthe advances of moral theory andpractice. In its current issue, itthrashes out the Chicago Plan andPresident Hutchins’ views on educa¬tional problems. Its editors are T.V. Smith, professor of Philosophy,and Charner Marquis Perry, assist¬ant profes.sor of Philosophy.Doubly distinguished, because ofits appearance as the first Univer¬sity Journal in December of 1892and because of its excellent discus¬sions The Journal of Political Econ¬omy has a wide circulation amongsocial scientists and the laymen whotake an interest in questions of cur¬rent importance. Its editors, JacobViner, and Frank H. Knight, profes¬sors of Economics, with the cooper¬ation of the other members of thedepartment of Economics presentdiscussions of these questions whichalso involve fundamental and en¬during issues such as monetaryproblems, business fluctuations, la¬bor problems, the relation of gov¬ernment to industry, and commer¬cial policy.Th-e Journal of Geology, which in1893 was the second Journal to beestablished by the University, makesavailable the latest results of geo¬logical investigation. It includes inits subject matter the evolution ofthe earth, the many variations in itssurface, the effects of wind, rain,and other weather conditions—in factall physical changes which occur inthe earth.

Bickel cameback strongly and went ahead bywinning four games in a row ashis stroke steadied. Here the tinyWestern State Captain smashedthrough to another game on Norm’sservice and then proceeded to losehis own as the University star lead5-3. Then Bickel’s game fell apartagain and Fisher stood in his backcourt to tie the set 5-5 on solid de¬fensive play. Once again the Ma¬roon number-one man tightened towin a love game but Fisher, be¬hind 6-5, could not be denied andwon his own service, won Bickel’sservice, and then his own again totriumph in game, set, and match,4-6, 6-4, 8-6. For the deciding poinljFisher served, sprinted to the net,and smashed Norm’s return throughthe opposite side of the court,before Bickel could make a move inthat direction.In the remaining matches Chica¬go did not lose a set as Bill Mur¬phy, Captain Burgess, Chet Murphy,Shostrom, and Krietenstein won inthat order. Bickel and Burgess,the two Murphys, and Shostrom andKrietenstein swept through the vic¬tory in the doubles matches.Clean SlateWithout losing a single set in 30,the Maroon tennis team kept itsconference slate clean last week¬end as it whipped Indians 6-0 inthe fieldhouse on Friday and thentraveled to Champaign on Saturdaymorning to white-wash the Illini9-0.The University team’s line-upagainst Indiana consisted of Bickelin the first spot followed by BillMurphy, Captain Burgess, and ChetMurphy. Bickel and Burgess playedthe first doubles match and Shos¬trom teamed with Krietenstein in thesecond battle.Against Illinois Shos^.rom wasadded to the line-up in fifth spotand Krietenstein completed thesquad.

Michigan Are., Chicago By SEYMOUR MILLERWhen LaVerne Noyes gave IdaNoyes hall to the University, hethought he was dedicating a club¬house for women. If Mr. Noyes evervisited the building now he woulddoubtless be rather surprised at thenumber of males that infest theplace.No one is quite sure how this sit¬uation arose. It seems, however,that when the department of Physi¬cal Education for women began hold¬ing mixed dancing classes some yearsago, the men out-numbered the wom¬en 2 or 3 to 1. Some of the latter,of a practical turn of mind no doubt,conceived the idea of admitting themen to the other activities at IdaNoyes.This was done and those males whocouldn’t find the type of recreationthey desired at Bartlett, the Rey¬nolds Club or Hanley’s came up toIda Noyes to keep the girls from get¬ting lonely. In such large numbersdid they swarm in that they crowdedthe women out of the gymnasium,took possession of the game-rooms,filled the social rooms and overflow¬ed across the indoor playing fields.To prevent the women from beingdispossessed entirely, special hourshave been set aside when only theymay enjoy the privileges of the hall.One effect of the situation may beto force the weaker sex to turn tosports like wrestling and football,since equipment in the other sports isseldom obtainable. Particularly indemand are roller skates, badmintonrackets, table tennis equipment andhop-skip-and-jump courts.Finds Game of “Jacks”Another favorite sport of thestronger sex is jacks. The reportercame upon an exciting game in oneof the rooms and picked up a fewpointers. According to the expertsthere are two main forms, the simpleflip and the Western twist. In theformer style the ball is thrown up¬wards, the hand is turned quickly topick up the jacks, then turned backin time to catch the ball. The West¬ ern flip is very similar except thatafter the jacks are grasped the handcontinues in its twist, and describesa complete circle. Thus the ball iscaught with the arm in a twisted po¬sition. While this is a more difficultmethod and involves greater physicalstrain than the other it has the im¬portant advantage of saving a frac¬tion of a second.“Some people think that jacks isa sissy’s game,” remarked one stal¬wart son of Adam, ‘but I assure youthat it isn’t. It requires more coor¬dination and timing than any othergame I know, plus a strong wrist andforearm. I exercise my arm everyday to keep in trim.” To prove hispoint he showed the reporter one too-avid player who had pulled a musclein his arm.And what do the girls think aboutthe matter? “Well,” sighed one,“we’ve lost a lot of our faith in thevirility and masculinity of the malesex,” As an afterthought she added,“But we console ourselves with thethought that, as Tiny Tim or some¬one said, a man’s a man for a’ o’that’.” pulled with the man on third scoringafter a wild throw to second rolledinto the outfield,Lawson, Gillerlain, and Shipwayall banged out several good hits dur¬ing the games. Roy Soderlind whohas been in a batting slump, thoughgetting no hits, finally began to sockthe horsehide again and should becounted on for several hits in theNorthwestern game.Predicts PickupConcerning future hopes of theteam. Coach Anderson state “Thoughwe have lost four games and probablycan’t win the conference, we are go¬ing to start winning ball games andstop other teams from coming outon top.” Yesterday the baseball play¬ers had an intra squad game.In the game with the PalmerHouse team Saturday, the secondteam came out on the losing end by9-2.
