UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO, TUESDAY, MAY 18, 1937The Five Waiters Sign Petition^Burning= Restoration of Wage Cuts¥(Thi«, the third of a series ofopinions incited by President RobertMaynard Hutchins’ "The HigherLearning in America,” is written byFrank Meyer, graduate student offwlitical science and former presi¬dent of the student council in thelAi^idem School of Economics.)In considering the issue raised byPresident Hutchins’ book it is neces--yiry not only to look at its explicitstatements, but also to consider theun.stated assumptions which underlieit and the unstated implications ofhis proposals. It must be understoodalso that an attack on the book isneither a whole-hearted defense ofall the aspects of our present educa¬tional system which Dr. Hutchinscriticises nor a rejection of all of thetechnical and orfranizational chaniareswhich he proposes.* * *There is no basic aprreement in theworld today on basic philosophical jquestions. I need only state that onthis campus at the present moment jthere exist three .schools of thought, |which, in their interpretation of the |fundamental nature of the universe Iand the fundamental principles ofknowinjf, differ profoundly. There isthe Neo-Scholastic trend in ail its va¬rieties which springs from a clusterof personalities around the Presi¬dent; there is the Pragmatist currentwhich influences the largest propor¬tion of teaching in the University;and there is the body of Marxistthinking which has taken roots in thepast few years in the student body,though as yet it is not represented inthe faculty. In their basic positioneach differs profoundly from theothers; and their basic differenceaffects their thought in everj' field.• ♦ •The Marxist, the dialectical ma¬terialist (for which position I speak)differs from the Neo-Scholastic in abelief in the necessity of deriving allprinciples, all ‘truths,’ from naturethrough social experience which con¬tinuously changes and develops the.seprinciples. He differs from the prag¬matists, to whom however, he is muchnearer in believing that principles,true of the real world within thelimitations of any given social epoch,can and must be derived from oursocial experience. He believes thattruth is not derived from utility buthas an objective reference to a real,'material world. IThe question of who is right is notthe point at issue here; truth canonly be established through the con¬flict of social groups which hold these‘truths’ and the establishment or de¬struction of their validity in socialpractice. The issue here is whetherwhether Mr. Hutchins’ proposals areor are not directed toward makingeasier for the student the possibilityof arriving at a real understanding ofthe world, of making his choicee be¬tween these proposed ‘truths.’It is my contention that, by takingfor granted the truth of one of thesepositions as beyond dispute. TheHigher Learning in America pro¬poses a university which would ruleout all approaches which are not inagreement with Dr. Hutchins’ funda¬mental approach. He and his follow¬ers may claim (as they do) that theydemand the teaching of no particularmetaphysic. (For example. Dr. Hut¬chins has recently stated that his def¬inition of metaphysics is broadenough to include all philosphles.But, as I hope to show below, thewhole book rests upon a less uniqueand much more traditional meaningof the word ‘metaphysics.’ The wholepurpose and meaning of the book isto derive a system of education whichshall be based not upon ‘any philos¬ophy,’ but upon a metaphysics ‘sub¬ordinating’ the sciences to its prin¬ciples. If Dr. Hutchins should desireto change his definition thus, hewould have to repudiate TSTost of thebook.) The very assumption thatany metaphysic is necessary to un¬derstanding, certainly the placing ofmetaphysics as the guiding principleof the university, rules out to beginwith two philosophies with millionsof followers in the world today—thepragmatic current and dialetical ma¬terialism. . . . philosophies which do(Continued on page 3) | Feeling that the wages paid to thestudent workers in the UniversityCoffee Shop and Hutchinson Com¬mons are inadequate, 46 of the 51waiters employed in the two campuseating places have signed a petitionthat w’as presented yesterday to Wil¬liam Mather, Bursar and assistantsecretary to the Board of Trustees,a student committee.The question has become an imme¬diate problem and has been givenconsiderable thought by the studentswho drew up the petition, whichEnglishman PlansStudy of County,City AdministrationNoel F.

The petition reads asfollows:Text of Petition“Whereas food prices havegone up in the Commons since1933; and whereas wages paidstudents in the Commons havenot followed the general trendof wages throughout the coun¬try. we the undersigned studentworkers ask the restoration ofthe wage cuts that have beenmade during the depression. Werecommend:1. 60 cents an hour for parttime .students;2. $2.50 a day plus threemeals 7 days a week for fulltime employees on a 9 hour daybasis.We have appointed a commit¬tee of three men to conduct ne¬gotiations. We expect immediateaction.”No Raise Before SummerAccording to the committee whoapproached Mather yesterday, theBursar stated that it would be im¬possible to raise the wages before theSummer quarter, since that wouldne'essitate raising food prices at bothplaces. This he feels would not bewise at the present time. He alsosaid that the matter would be givendue consideration and that it wasprobable wages would be raised inthe Summer quarter. This raise,however, would be of no benefit tothe present student workers.

To further the Cause, she at-temps to instruct her friends, report¬ers on arch-conservative newspapers,in the ideals of Communism. Climaxof the production comes when herreporter friends, well filled with goodcheer, come to the rescue when thespeaker for a mass-meeting of theParty cannot be found. Ensuingevents leave the heroine considerablydisillusioned.While the International House per¬formances will be its first Chicagoappearances, “A Streak of Pink” hasalready scored hits in Yale produc¬tions, and is to be played in summerstock in New Hampshire. Broadw'ayproduction is tentatively scheduledfor next winter.

The band will then present thetwo feature numbers of the program,“Manin Veen” by Haydn Wood, andthe Coronation Scene from “BorisGoudenow” by Moussorgsky. PaulLyness will conclude the programwith a trombone solo, “The Gondo¬liers,”In event of inclement weather theconcert will be given in the Reynoldsclub lounge. The series of three con¬certs will be open to the public. Talk of increasing the responsi¬bility of labor unions by incorpora¬tion since their rights have been of¬ficially recognized in the Wagner La¬bor Act mght lead to two sources ofdanger, according to Paul Douglas,professor of Economics, in spite ofthe apparent fairness of the proposal.“The present state laws concern¬ing picketing and boycotting,” Doug-last said, “are frequently so indefi¬nite and often so unsatisfactory thatin many cases heavy damage mightthus be obtained against the unionsbecause of peaceful acts, which, inthe eyes of the public and in termsof the laws of other states, wouldbe innocent and proper.”Danger from SpiesThe second danger which he pointsout is that it would be possible forspies and agents provocateurs toworm themselves into the unions, asthe investigations of the LaFollettecommittee have shown has often beenthe case.“These agents,” he continued,“might then commit the union to actswhich could later be used as a basisfor heavy damage claims and tobreak up the legitimate activities ofthe unions. On the whole, therefore,' it would seem wise at the very leastto postpone action until the presentsituation has had time to crystallizefurher.”Mary B, Gilson, assistant professorof Economics, believes that the ques¬tion of incorporation of trade unionsseems to be aside from any discus¬sion of the Wagner Act, which mere¬ly grants the workers a right whichemployers have long enjoyed.Adequate Punishments At Present“Countless cases might be cited,”she stated, “of workers who havebeen punished by jail sentences forviolence or semi-violence in connec¬tion with labor disputes, and there Award ScholarshipPrizes to JuniorCollege StudentsStudents of three Chicago juniorcolleges, Wright, Herzl, and Wood-row Wilson, won the largest numberof awards in the annual scholarshipcompetitive examinations of the Uni¬versity, results of which were an¬nounced yesterday by Dean of Stu¬dents George A.

The progressive advance made in educa¬tional policies since the introduction of theChicago plan is matched by no parallel in theold systems still prevalent in the Universityfoodshops—Commons, the Coffee Shop, andthe Ida Noyes Cloister Club,During the past three quarters a number ofstudents have collected menus, comparedprices, and investigated wages of these threeinstitutions in an attempt to explain the com-partively high prices charged and the salariespaid to student help. All information gather¬ed seems to point to the fact that these cam¬pus enterprises are being run, not as serviceinstitutions for the convenience of the studentand faculty bodies, but on a profit basis, how¬ever slight it may be.Food prices in neighborhood restaurantsand drugstores range considerably lower thanUniversity rates. Standard articles, such ascoffee, milk, soup, sandwiches, and specialstudent luncheons, with due consideration toquantity and quality offered, are sold severalcents cheaper in the majority of local storesthan they are here,The explanation given for the difference hasbeen the expense of heating and lighting forthe Commons, Cloister Club and Coffee Shoprooms, the better quality of the food served,the contributions to the sinking fund, and theexpense of keeping an open shop on holidaysand weekends. But there has been little saidof the fact that all campus food, including the-w, dormitory rations, is bought together in bulkquantities, and is therefore purchased at a con¬siderably cheaper rate. There is no checkingservice on holidays, there are fewer employeesat work, and a reserve fund for repairs shouldnot necessitate a rise in prices, at the expenseof the consumer.Late yesterday afternoon a committee rep¬resenting the student employees of the Com¬mons and the Coffee Shop (Cloister Club wasnot included) presented a petition to Mr.Mather, a petition signed by 46 of the 5 1 stu¬dent employees, asking for an increase inwages to 60 cents an hour. At present, stu¬dents earn 40 cents an hour in meal tickets,or 35 cents an hour in cash. According tothe delegation. Mr. Mather stated that an in¬crease in the wage rate would necessitate a corresponding increase in food prices, whichwould affect the student body at large.Therefore, if the matter became an urgent is¬sue, it might be wiser and more economical toreplace student workers with outside help.An immediate answer has been postponeduntil a further investigation is made.We did a bit of investigating ourselves, longbefore the student petition was drawn up.Along with the current rise in food prices,there has been an advance in many items onthe University menus. Students are gettingless food for their meal checks than they didseveral months ago. Several employees whoworked as waiters and busboys six and sevenyears ago claim that there has been a I 0 percent cut in wages, which at that time were50 cents an hour in cash.Commons directors have admitted thatthere has been an increase in the volume ofbusiness in recent years. TTie Commons de¬partment is needed on this campus. Certainlywith efficient management and administrationprice levels could be better controlled. Weask for decent meals at reasonable prices, thatthe University foodshops be put entirely ona service or cooperative basis, and that stu¬dent employees be granted a reasonable payincrease on a cash rate.Surely, that is not too distant a goal to setfor next year.—B.

And lestthere should be any mistake, let mequote several passages from TheHigher Learning in America: ... .♦ * *First his definition of metaphysics:“In metaphysics, we are seeking thecauses of things as they are. It is thehighest science, the first science, and,as first, universal. It considers be¬ing as being, both what it is and theattributes which belong to it as be¬ing.’’ pp. 98-9.And again:‘Education implies teaching.Teaching implies knowledge. Knowl¬edge is truth. The‘truth is every¬where the same. Hence educationshould be everywhere the same.’’(footnote to this, as from an indis¬putable authority, is from St. Thomas.Aquinas) p. 66.“By constructing a university inthis way it can be made intelligible..Metaphysics, the study of first prin¬ciples, pervades the whole. . . . De¬pendent on this and subordinate toit are the social and natural sciences.In due subordination to the teachingof these we include historical andcurrent empirical material.’’ (my em¬phasis—F. M.) p. 108.and a little higher up on the same|>age :“The natural sciences derive theirprinciples from the philosophy of na¬ture which in turn depends on meta¬physics.’’But what then becomes of thosewho feel that there are no first prin¬ciples of this sort from which all elseis derived—that the Middle Ages andAncient Greece were far behind our(still very far from complete) un¬derstanding of the constantly grow¬ing and changing principles whichaid us in understanding and master¬ing reality—that the only philosophywhatever it may be, worth having isthat which which is derived preciselyfrom the latest discoveries which in¬corporate all previous discoveries,those discoveries which Dr. Hutchinswould have us study only insofar asthey (p. 108) “serve to illustrate,exemplify or confirm these prin¬ciples.’’ What become* of the studyof those observations which serve todiscover new principles, to expand,correct or destroy old ones? The factthat Dr. Hutchins would allow theseobservations to be made and studiedin technical institutes does not alterthe question. We are concerned herewith the university proper, and theeffect on the university of the in¬terdiction of the study of these ob¬servations and of education basedupon that study.* * sHowever it is hidden amid fre¬quently revised definitions and sim¬ple-seeming flight from a ‘disorderedand money-ridden age,’ Dr. Hutchins’basic premise is not contained in hismany valid criticisms of the age andits educaton. The basic premise re¬mains the statement that truth iseverywhere the same. Even if weadmit this for the sake of avoidingargument, one thing is surely obvi¬ous, that though it might possiblybe everywhere the same, there is inthe world today gi'eat disagreementon what it is.Since this is the case, how can afree university be built around theteaching of metaphysics? Let us takeonly one example of the difficulties which arise. Hutchins would elimin¬ate from the study of the naturaland social sciences all observationswhich are not ‘subordinated’ to thefirst principles taught by metaphys¬ics. Does this not mean a return tothe hair-splitting days of the MiddleAges when thought was largely de¬voted to reconciling discovered factswith established principles?The need of a synthesis in the mod¬ern world, which Dr. Hutchinsraises, we all feel. But how can theuniversity supply it in the strife-tornworld of today? Hutchins wantscarte-blanche to impose his synthesison the mind of the student. But whyshould the student be presented withthis synthe.sis ready made? Thereare many more. Marxism has a so¬cial and historical one. The prag¬matists feel that any synthesis is amatter of utility. The student has tofind his own synthesis in the struggleof life. All the university can do isto equip him to make his choice, tohelp him solve his problems by show¬ing him all the conflicts in society asclearly as possible—all the rival‘truths’ as clearly as possible—andleaving it to him to make his choice.Specific proposals have to be dis¬cussed and considered. I do not pro¬pose to bring forward my own petproposals here. But two generalprinciples can be indicated.* )(iThe first depends in the end uponthe teacher. It is the necessity thatthe university reflect and bring tothe student an awareness of theproblems of the world outside, anawareness of the problems he willhave to meet as citizen and scientist..And this in turn depends upon thegreatest measure of democratic con¬trol by teachers and students in aprivately endowed institution; byteachers, students and the public inpublic institutions. It is a shameand a scandal that the ultimate fateof Mr. Hutchins’ views depends littleupon the faculty and less upon thestudent.s—unless they find ways ofmaking their pressure felt in otherways than through the official chan¬nels of university government.The difficulty in putting forwardsweeping proposals for change is that1 feel they depend mainly uponchanges in the outside world. Thatthere are many organizationalchanges that can be made now noone can deny. Their charactershould, however, be subordinate tothe main principles outlined aboveregarding the content of education.The main question today is that allthose who reject dogmatism and au¬thority which holds itself above em¬pirical challenge should make theirvoice heard, so that we shall preservein our education the principles thatnothing shall stand in the way of sci¬entific inquiry and the fearless revi¬sion of all ideas which are not in ac¬cord with the facts of the real world.We are faced not with the choiceof a philosophical point of view, butwith the danger of imposition uponthe university of one authoritarianpoint of view and the consequent dis¬appearance of real science, fearlessinquiry, and with it all true educa¬tion. Newman, Freeman, HolzingerPublish fSew Study on Twins ^international House Presents ShowingsI of Famous German Educational FilmThe latest of the books from theUniversity Press, “Twins—A Studyof Heredity and Environment’’ byHoratio H. Newman, professor ofZoology, Frank N. Freeman, profes¬sor of Educational Psychology, andKarl J. Holzinger, professor of Stat¬istics, is one of the most importantbooks have been published this yearby the Press. The volume is consid¬ered one of the most outstandingcontributions to the scientific studyof the effects of environment andheredity on twins that has ever beenI published.j For the past ten years these three1 men, from their varied viewpoints,' have pried into the mental and phys-I ical similarities of identical twins; reared together and apart, and haveI emerged with a study that moreclosely approaches an accurate deter¬mination of the relative shares ofheredity and environment in deter¬mining human difference than hashitherto been possible. Their conclu¬sions favor neither an exti’eme her-editarian nor an extreme environ¬mentalist point of view both factorsbeing presented in proportion to theirrelative differences in any particularsetup.A unique and important phase ofthe book consists of the nineteen casestudies of identical pairs of twinswho were separated in infancy andreared apart. Only one previouscase of this sort had ever been re¬corded. They proceed to show thathuman intelligence is not definitelyfixed at birth by genetic factors but may be distinctly influenced by suchenvironmental factors as education,social position, and home life.Not only can intelligence be influ¬enced by environment, but personal¬ity traits such as temperamental andemotional attitudes are affected byenvironment to an even more mark¬ed degree. But heredity is dominantin all physical characteristics exceptthe obvious one of body weight.During the course of the study theinvestigators measured and testedone hundred pairs of fraternal twins,who develop from two eggs andtherefore have only the same similar¬ity of heredity as do siblings; andone hundred pairs of identical twins,who develop from a .single egg, andhave the same heredity. These setsof twins were reared together, sothat for each set the environmentalconditions were very similar.The study is unique among suchefforts, not only because of the num¬ber of pairs of twins studied, but inthe large representation of separatedidentical twins. One argument whichbrought nine of the separated twinsto Chicago was the offer of an all¬expense trip to A Century of Prog¬ress. The identical twinship was es¬tablished in each case by detailed andrigorous measurement.F^or identical twins reared togetherthe co-eff’cient for the Binet I. Q.test is about .91, whereas in the sepa¬rated identical twins, the coefficientdrops to about .67. In other words,environment produces an increaseddifference of 24 per cent. Illustrating the use of film en¬tertainment in educational work, thepre-Nazi German film, “Emil unddie Detektive,’’ adapted from afamous children’s tale by ErichKaestner, will be shown at Interna¬tional House four times today.The German counterpart of Amer¬ica’s “Tom Spwyer’’ and France’s“Sans Famille,’’ “Emil und die De¬tektive’’ is the most famous chil¬dren’s story of Germany, has beentranslated into many languages, andis required reading for over half ofthe college and secondary elementaryGerman classes in this country.Shown at International Housethree times previously, twice in 1934and once in 1935, today’s showingstake on special interest to Univer¬sity students in that this new edi¬tion of “Emil’’ has been titled byWilliam Kurath of the German de¬partment.Spon.sored by Mr. Kurath, in co¬operation with the InternationalFilm Bureau, distributors of thefilm, today’s showings form an ef¬fort to demonstrate to the city’steachers of German the advantagesof “painless” instruction in lan¬guages. Using elementary Germaneasily understood by the averagestudent who has had but one yearof German, “Emil” has been supple¬mented by Dr. Kurath’s English sub¬titles, and for instructional purposeswill, in future classrooms showings,be supplemented by Dr. Kurath’snew edition of the book, keyed to themotion picture.Students of German will be espe¬cially interested to learn that theGerman department has arrangedthat those seeing the film for in¬ struction purposes may attend twoshowings for the price of one. Show¬ings are being held at 3:30 and5:00 in the afternoon; at 7:30 and9:00 in the evening.The story of a young boy who isrobbed of his money while journey¬ing to Berlin, “Emil” tells how theboy, with the aid of several young ac¬quaintances whom he meets in Ber¬lin, tracks down the thief and re¬covers his money. Directed by Ger¬hard Lamprecht, photographed byWerner Brandes, with an originalscore by Allan Gray, “Emil und dieDetektive” is an hilarious story ofthe “Penrod and Sam” type.TENNISSociologist Sees Future GovernmentPlanning Based on New Technology ] Most complete stock is here.

Ogburn, Sewell L. AveryDistinguished Service Professor ofSociology, said that the present trendis towards government investigationof technological improvements withthe view of planning for their bet¬ter coordination in the community.Ogburn is completing work on asurvey, “Technological Trends andTheir Social Implications,” for theNational Resources committee, whichis headed by Harold F. Ickes, secre¬tary of the Interior. The pamphletwill appear sometime this month.Comments On Trade“The effects on international tradeand nationalism of such experimentsas those in Italy, where wool fibersare being produced from milk casein,and in Germany, where synthetic cot¬ton is produced from wood, are ob¬vious,” Ogburn stated. “In Europetoday gasoline is being manufacturedfrom coal, a fact which will have un¬doubted effects on tariffs, the de¬mand for raw materials, and conse¬quently on the war problem.“As soon as the cotton picker ofthe Rust brothers is fully perfectedand put on a mass production basis,”he continued, “unemployment will becaused in the South. Assimilation willnot be immediate, it will probablytake ten years before there is anysemblance of order in the social lifeof the Southern negro and white la¬borer.“They may move to the New Eng¬land manufacturing areas, predictedOgburn, “or another technologicalimprovement, artificial climate, maymake it possible for them to workin newly established Southern fac¬tories. Air conditioning, the mostrecently perfected phase of artificial climate, will make the tropics moreliveable and permit industral devel¬opment in the South.”Ogburn said that a bill is pendingin Congress to institute some form ofa sociological planning board, and thesurvey was planned to show the needof such a group, since cultural ad¬justment usually lags far behindtechnological change.Another development which maylead to social change is the increas¬ed use of trailers, which may soonhave a large percentage of the pop¬ulation using them for purposes be¬sides vacation trips. They will prob¬ably be adapted to the needs of ped¬dlers, politicians, and casual labor¬ers, and may even be used as per¬manent residences by older peoplewho need no permanent address.Steep flight air-craft, which canland on a space as small as a roof¬top, are being perfected. The latestexperiment is to take off the wingsand use just a rotor for propulsion,and attempts are being made to havecollapsible rotoi’s so that the machinemay be used as an automobile onland. These planes would be for pri¬vate use only, since they can neither'fast enough nor heavy enough forcommercial work.Television will put the theatre inthe home, according to Ogburn, andwill cause a demand for artistic tal¬ent in acting and singing that is un¬paralleled at present.DREXEL THEATRE858 E. 63rdToday and Tomorrow*The Soldier and the Lady*“Hips, Hips, Hooray!” TheHITCHINGPOSTOpen 24 Hours a DayWAFFLECHEESEBURGERCREAM OMELETSTEAK1552 E. 57th StreetN.

TUESDAY, MAY 18, 1937Maroon Nine Splits Serieswith Indiana, 14-6, 3-4Defeat Hoosiers to EndSeason with Eight Loses,Three Wins.Yesterday afternoon the Maroonbaseball team topped off their sea¬son by handing the Indiana Hoosierstheir first conference loss. Scoring12 runs in the first four inningsChicago coasted to a 14-6 victory.In the game with Indiana Satur¬day, the Hoosiers chalked up a 4-3•win.Law’son started on the mound forChicago but in the second afterwalking three men in a row -was re¬placed by Amundsen. I>efty thenwent out to right field and replacedRoy Soderlind. Amundsen hui-led forthe next five innings and was pulledat the beginning of the eighth afterIndiana scored three runs. Reynoldsfinished the game on the mound forChicago.Maroons Score in FirstThe Maroons started their scor¬ing spree in the first inning, whenLaw’son with tw’o men on baseknocked a home run into deep leftfield. In the third and eighth inningsLaw’Son also drove in runs, once witha double and again with a long fly.After scoring four runs in thethird and five runs in the fourth.Hosier, leading Indiana moundsmanwho has a record of five consecutivewins on the mound, •was relieved ofmound duties by Greiger, Hoosier re¬lief hurler.Maroon batsmen found Greiger fortwo hits and two runs. The Hoosierserred many times while Chicagoplayed heads up baseball and usedtheir breaks. Season totals for theMaroons are eight losses and threewins.Since the Northwestern game hasbeen called off this was the last ap¬pearance of the Maroon baseballsquad this year. Four seniors, Ber¬nard, Schuessler, Captain Shipwayand Gillerlain, wearing the Chicagouniform for the last time were givena great hand at their last appear¬ance at the plate. Gillerlain toppedoff his baseball career by knockinga double in the ninth. Captain Ship¬way played a great game, comingthrough in the pinches wuth hits andshrewdly calling signals. Track TeamDrops Meet toBoilermakershHalcrow Again Stars inRelay; Also Wins 220and 440.The Maroon track team brought anunsuccessful season of dual meets toa close Saturday when they bowed tosuperior Purdue team 73-58. Onlythe Big Ten championships remainbefore the tracksters will hang uptheir spikes until next year.Although Chicago lost, one of itsmen contributed the outstanding per¬formance of the day. Starting the fi¬nal quarter of the mile relay 20 yardsbehind, George Halcrow ran the an¬chor run in 47.8 seconds to cross thetape a few inches ahead of his Pur¬due rival.Halcrow further contributed to the iMaroon cause by winning both the '440 yd. run and the 220 yd. dash. ;However, his time of 50.9 in the;former was slower than that of his jperformance in the relay. jHurdlers Unimpressive |Frick showed his superiority in the |century run when he competed the jdash in the fast time of 10.1. For jthe first time this season the hurdlersfell down and could place no betterthan third in the low hurdles andsecond in the high hurdles.Chicago was also able to obtainvictories in three other events. Gor¬don tied Williamson of the Boiler¬maker team with a leap of 5 feet 10inches in the high jump. Kobak’smark of 22 feet 4% inches in thebroad jump was sufficient to gainhim five points and victory in theevent and LaBelled hurled the discus124 feet 7 inches for the last Ma¬roon victory.The distance runs as well as thejavelin and shot put throws were al¬most completely dominated by thePurdue team and it was theirstrength in these events that enabledthem to win the meet. Linksmen Turn inPoor Scores forTournament PlayResults tabulated after the comple¬tion of the first 36 holes of the BigTen golf championship tournamentfound the Maroon representatives farbelow the leaders. Although com¬plete results were not available lastnight.

Lewis combined scores of88, 87 to finish with a 174 total.Jack Gilbert covered the first eigh¬teen holes in 88 while Bill Webbeturned in an 87; their afternoonround results were unobtainable.At the half way mark Richardsonof Northwestern had found the Kil-deer golf course to his liking andfinished with 74’s for a score of 148and led the field. He was tied byBill Ploetza who had scores of 73-75—148.
