UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO, THURSDAY, MAY 20, 1937 Price Three Cent*The Fire=^Buming= Van DevanteVs ResignationBlocks Court Bill—KerwinBy ADELE ROSE{This, the fifth of a series of opin-iom on the cui'rent educational con¬troversy, is written by William F.Ogbum, Sewell L. Avery Distinguish¬ed Sertyice professor of Sociology.)t * *A generation or so ago farmershad to come to town to get their mail.The proposal of a rural free mail de¬livery was opposed successfully foryears by the saloons. Then it wasput through and proved highly bene¬ficial. On the other hand not every in¬novation is good. Some defect ap¬pears, there is no demand, or elsethere is a better device. A reasonableattitude toward educational changelies somewhere between these two ex¬tremes.

A paintedfence, as Woodrow Wilson used to |observe, will not remain as it is forlong. It must be repainted at least to jbe stationary so to speak.With the continuance of PresidentHutchins’ admini.stration the air seeto become thicker with new ideas of “There are about ten senators," heexplained, “who would like a com¬promise, either by raising the agelimit in the bill or by an amendmentdefining the power of the court, andcan be easily persuaded to opposethe bill. The resig^iation of Van De-vanter will give these men, who areonly unenthusiastically agreeing tothe plan because of the President, a j vanter,way out of supporting him.”Check to PlanKerwin believes that Van Devan-ter probably resigned to check theplan, since he was one of the mostpersistent justices and intended tostay on the bench as long as pos¬sible. He thinks that Justice Suther¬ land will also resign in the near fu¬ture, and perhaps McReynolds sinceboth know that by their resignationthey make it more difficult to pushthe plan through. Another justicewho may resign, though not becauseof the Court battle, is Brandeis.“The appointment of a liberaljudge to take the place of Vande-Kerwin stated, “would betemporarily satisfactory. The Presi¬dent would have a certain 5 to 4majority for his present plans, butI this would not take care of perman-I ent reform.J “Present court reform is a matterof waiting until someone gets ready: to resign,” he continued, “and so! Roosevelt is insistent on the originalI plan of reform.

The faculty? Ionce knew a professor of biologywho seriously thought that at leastone half of the curriculum should bebiology. Such enthusiasts makegreat teachers, but not the wisestpersons for selecting the subjects tobe taught in a balanced curriculum.There should be some way of protect¬ing students from the complexes ofthose in power. The alumni? No, be¬cause most of the alumni with whomI have talked seem to want merelyto preser\’e the good old days of almamater as they knew it. The stu¬dents? Perhaps they do not knowenough? At Barnard College, whereI once taught, the girls spent a yearstudying the curriculum they wouldlike to have; and recommended it tothe trustees. It was published after¬ward in several journals here andabroad. It seemed to me an improve¬ment on what was then being offered.But nothing ever came of it.* * *In the core of the present educa¬tional controversy is the question ofwhat part philosophy should play.President Hutchins makes philosophythe unifying factor in the proposedUniversity.

Maroon Opens Survey toFind Extent of Crammingand Tutoring in UniversityMatheFs StatementFails to SatisfyCommons WaitersResults of last night’s meeting ofthe Hutchinson Commons waiters toconsider Bursar William Mather’s re¬ply to their petition for higherwages were not disclosed by the com¬mittee representing the students butthe committee had previously toldThe Daily Maroon that it was dissat¬isfied with the Bursar’s reply.Following a conference with theBursar yesterday afternoon the com¬mittee stated its position. “Matherhas refused to recognize the right ofthis committee to negotiate for thestudent waiters,” it declared, “andwhen we asked for an answer to ourpetition of Monday, he stated thathe regarded his statement of Tues¬day as sufficient.”Even though the University hadgranted the Commons waiters a fivecent raise in pay effective at the be¬ginning of the Summer quarter inanswer to the petition demanding a20 cent raise, the committee com¬plained that the fact that Matherhad also decreed a three to five centrise in food prices deprived them ofthe benefits of the promised raise.The committee also complained ofthe act that whereas the studentshad presented their petition to theBursar through a commitee, he hadreplied not to the committee whichwas representing the students but tothe student waiters as individuals.Across the Midway, waiters in themen’s dormitories, also working un¬der the University system, statedthat they were entirely satisfied withconditions as they ^^ow exist. —Celli Displays Splendid Technique inBallet Performance at Mandel Hallduced at Yale, and is scheduled forj-ing, as are the large observatories.production by New Hampshire stockcompanies.

The ob¬servatory will be under the chargeof Dr. Bartky, associate professor ofAstronomy.In addition to the telescope ameridianal transit will also be setup on the roof in a box of its own.The'observatory building will be sup¬ported by one steel beam and the twoinstruments by another so that theywon’t vibrate. Construction of thebuilding will be completed in aboutthree weeks, and it will probably beready for use during the summer.The work, except for the putting inof the steel beams, is being done en¬tirely by Buildings and Grounds. Vincenzo Celli gave aperformance at Mandel Hall lastnight. His technique is, on thewhole, splendid, especially for adancer under twenty years old. Al¬though weaknesses could be detect¬ed in his work, he took full advan¬tage of his strong points, which in¬cluded wide leaps, springs, and en¬trechats. He covered a wide rangeof ballets, from classical Italian tomodern.The first numbers seemed a bitfaltering; the technique was pre¬cise, but it was almost too delicateand fragile. The third number,“Furlana,” and “Tarantella Napoli-tana” supplied the enthusiasm, spon¬taneity, and naturalness some ofthe others lacked. Even a fall in“Furlana” did not spoil the humangayety of Signor Celli. These twonumbers, based on Italian folk-dances, were among the most effec¬tive of the evening.“Songs Without Words,” the bal¬let .without accompaniment com¬posed especially for the RenaissanceSociety, was perhaps the most out¬standing number. “This ballet waspurely an experiment or sketch,”said Celli; “I hope to develop itmore fully.” As the curtain rose on“First Love” immediate applauseBy LaVERNE RIESScreditable, greeted Signor , Celli and EloiseMoore, to whom belongs second hon¬ors of the evening for her splen¬did performances in this numberand in “The Yellow Mask,” an ori¬ental mimo drama. She is a form¬er student of the University and isthe assistant of Berta Ochsner, aprominent Chicago dancer. “FirstDeath,” the second part of the bal¬let, was even more striking thanthe first.The best toe work was display-! ed in “Pulcinella’s Snare.” Thedancers showed excellent controland precision, although at timesthey lacked coordination and finish.Other leading dancers of thecompany are Muriel Gray, who de¬serves commendation for her workwith Signor Celli in “Brown-GlassFigurines,” Helene Musil, and Gret-chen Havemann. The little girlsfrom the studio of Mabel KatherinePearse performed with ease andchild-like grace.Walker Talks BeforeConsumers’ Conference SSA Hears PuxleyLecture TomorrowJohn R.

Presents Questionnaire toAll Students TomorrowMorning.To determine the extent of cram¬ming and tutoring in the University,The Daily Maroon is beginning anintensive survey. Opening the sur¬vey will be a brief questionnaire,attached to copies of the campusnewspaper tomorrow morning.This questionnaire, ascertaining bymeans of five questions how muchthe student crams and whether hehires a tutor, will be absolutely im¬personal. No names will be desired.Results will be announced Tuesday,after which further revelations willbe made throughout next week.The purpose of this survey is topresent to Maroon readers, to the ad¬ministration, and to the Board ofExaminations an accurate account ofcramming and tutoring here. Onephase of the survey will be compari¬son with other institutions through¬out the country. It is intended thatthe information accumulated willprove valuable to educators planningthe future of the University and ofother schools.Boxes will be placed at all regularMaroon sales stations tomorrowmorning to receive the answeredquestionnaires. In addition to ques¬tionnaires clipped to the copies ofthe newspaper, extra ones will beplaced in dormitories and centralgathering places like Cobb Hall, inorder that the response may be broadand representative.Following the results of this poll.The Daily Maroon will proceed topresent physiological and psy¬chological facts about cramming,professorial opinions, facts about thesale of past comprehensive examina¬tions,'an expose of tutoring here, theaforementioned comparison withother schools, and numerous otherangles to be announced later.In the survey, cramming will bedefined ad intensive, short-term studyof new or practically new materialas the final examinations approach.Hard review is not considered ascramming, but reading from bookswhich were formerly neglected orskipped through is called cramming.While the survey will consider thedisadvantages of cramming to health,the main point of the drive will con¬cern the editorial disadvantageswhich cramming and certain types oftutoring bring.Open Dance WillFollow Alpha DeliPlays SaturdayContinuing a tradition of 12years’ standing. Alpha Delta Phiwill present a group of short, one-act plays Friday and Saturday eve¬nings at 8 in the theater of theReynolds Club.

There hasbeen much comment and doubt among ussince Mr. Mather yesterday issued an officialstatement refusing an immediate increase inwages to students employed as waiters in theUniversity Commons and Coffee Shop. Thefive cent raise that has been promised with thestart of the summer quarter, an increase from35 to 40 cents in cash, and 40 to 45 cents inmeal tickets, has been conditioned by thestatement that "the adjustment will require anincrease in meal prices to the student of fromthree cents to five cents per day." And we’vebeen handing our tuition to the bursar, ourpin money to the Bookstore, and our pock¬ets are pretty empty. Still, we have to eat.A further increase in food prices on cam¬pus worried us. After asking a few reputedlyresponsible people for some figures yesterday,we applied some simple arithmetic. And wegive Mr, Mather and the Commons Depart¬ment the benefits of our doubts. TTie paren¬theses arc the doubts. The figures are unoffi¬cial, but seem convincing.First, there are about 60 student waitersemployed in these two foodshops on part timework. (Monday’s petition was signed by 46of the 5 1 waiters employed.) These studentswork approximately three hours per day. (TTieaverage, we are told is two and a half.) Anincrease in five cents per hour would amountto nine dollars per day for the 60 studentsemployed.Second, about 1200 students are accommo¬dated daily in the Coffee Shop and Commons.(Figures estimated to us place the numberserved in Commons at 850 and 1000, andthose at the Coffee Shop, at 600.)Mr. Mather stated that a raise in wageswould necessitate a rise in meal prices to thestudent of from three cents to five cents a day."Meal prices" is taken to refer to the threemeals an average student living on campuseats, hence we arbitrarily set the price of thosemeals at one dollar; though some studentsspend less. We are told that the Coffee Shoptakes in about $150 per day, and that theCommons average lies between $350 and$375, a total of about $500. Substracting $100from that (for the benefit of the doubt), andtaking four percent of the remaining $400(since the price increase on food will be fromthree to five cents per day), we have an addi¬tional $ 16 added to food prices.In short, the increase as estimated will equalseven dollars more than th^ nnii nff«*red to stu dent employees. With the deduction fromthat surplus for the raise in wages to otherCommons employees, there stiH remains a sur¬plus.Tire increases established by the CommonsDepartment have been based on the assump¬tion that there will be no further rise in thecost of food. Therefore, the surplus is not in¬tended to be used for higher wholesale prices,but will day by day accumulate into a so-calledprofit.And that is the reason for our own doubts.We don’t believe that the University is justifiedin entering a business for a profit. We demandstudent cafeterias run on a service bask.We would also like to take this opportunityto ask Mr. Mather to affirm or scotch certainrumors concerning the operation of the Com¬mons. We hear that the University chargesthe management of the Commons a monthlyrent, which is based on several items, includ¬ing such necessities as heat, light, gas, windowwashing (though the Commons windows werenot made to be and have never been washed),maintenance, and also a rather sizable propor¬tion attributed to "interest on the capital in¬vestment." We also hear that HutchinsonCommons was given to the University as anoutright free gift. If so, where is the Univer¬sity’s "capital investment ’ on which suchcharges might be based?We think it particularly important that suchrumors be scotched, if unture, because theyare being used to explain the "small profitmargin” to which Mr. Mather and the Depart¬ment point with pride. You see, Mr. Mather,if operating expenses can be inflated enoughby exorbitant rent, the books will eventuallybalance to the extent of demonstrating thatthe University is not just barely making endsmeet on the restaurant side, but is actually be¬ing no end altruistic in losing money in its at¬tempt to maintain "the established policy ofserving students with a high quality of foodat the lowest possible cost.”—B. R.The Travelling Bazaar At OtherSchools* q *Bp HARRIS BECK* * •The other morning the men of theUniversity of Texas woke up to findthemselves in a terrible predicament—if such luck can be called a pre¬dicament. They discovered that 300of the 2.500 women on campus hadat some time or other in their careersbeen selected as the most beautifulof some thing or other. 12% of theco-eds walking around on the cam¬pus were eligible for that awe in¬spiring and date getting title. Onecan only sigh and offer condolencesto any editor or business manageron that campus who would attemptto assume the role of a modernParis and seek out the “most beau¬tiful” of the “Most Beautiful.”The Eastern Intercollegiate ChinGolf Tournament was recently heldat the studios of station WOR inNew York City.

Sometimes they are dif-,ferent to the point of being deadly, which is perhapsnot so different after all, but the Phi Delts may becredited with quite a few entirely praiseworthy orig-*inal ideas. One of the best was the barn dance,held there a couple of years ago, with extremely real-'istic settings, even to the point of rural love in ahaystack.Which brings us to the point, which is simply thatjthe boys will prolong the tradition next Saturdaynight with an “Ozark Toddler’s Strut.” Just whatthis means we don’t know, but the girls will becalled for by a hay wagon and taken for a ride,,which ought to be quite something.* * 9PRESIDENTIAL PROFANITYUnfortunately the juicy remarks which President'Hutchins made last ni^t at the Maroon banquet'must go unquoted in the public press, although theywill undoubtedly go misquoted from many a mouth 1for some time to come.But even though we must not touch the President’spublic utterances on the occasion, we cannot re-;strain the temptation to report his muttered words iwhen Frank Meyer jumped up to question him. ^Scarcely audible, the President mumbled, “Oh God!”« * *UNDERGROUND DOINGS' It is rumored that big news may soon break inthe campus publications field, and by this we do notmean just the customary annual elections of officers.9 9 9CHATThe world center of astronomy may have shiftedto Chicago, as Sir Arthur Elddington recently re¬marked.

As time went on andthe teacher molded Rennie into pat- jterns first created by the diamondsharp burin of de Maupassant, moreand more excitement reigned in theEnglish department. Here, said theteacher, is an artist. A real, genuineand glorious artist. Never have 11seen his equal. ' Lettersto the EditorAnd one day Rennie was asked tostay after class. After having mark¬er. Style, grammar, composition, ia large A and two plusses, the teach-'er turned to Renny and in an excitedvoice exclaimed:"My boy, I can teach you no long¬er. Style, grammar, compo.sition,everthing is perfect. Come into theEnglish department. Learn of the oldmasters although I doubt if they canteach you much. Give up chemistry.Write, write, write! My boy, (hisvoice broke here) you will be a sec¬ond de Maupassant!"In vain did this boy plead thatchemistry was his first and only love.Pressure was exerted on him. Atnight, when his fraternity was gath¬ered around a roaring fire andshadows were dancing on the ceilinglike whirling dervishes, his "broth¬ers" would counsel him with solemnvoices to give up chemistry and turnhis hand to a field which would makeboth him and the fraternity of whichhe was a part go down in history. Af¬ter weeks of cajolery, pleading andoratory on "fraternity duties,” hesuccumbed. Rennie entered the Eng¬lish department and found peace and"brotherly” slaps on the back.After a brilliant career in English,Rennie graduated. By that time hehad convinced himself that he was tobecome the second de Maupassant.His old English teacher saw him offon the train to New York with tearsin his eyes and a farewell present ofThe Master’s short stories.In New York, Rennie wrote andwrote. Day after day, night afternight, he pounded his tpyewriter un¬ceasingly. He took time off only toopen his mail which always containedanother rejection slip. He paperedthe wails of his room with them—they wore all colors, blue, green,etc. When his money ran out, hislandlady, a little perturbed at theidea of having a corpse on her hands,especially a starved one, offered hima job. But no, he was a second deMaupassant. Clean dishes? NeverlRather starve I And the lanlady let itgo at that. In the fall of that year,he was moved, typewriter and all,into the very middle of an unfriendlystreet.In some strange manner, he exist¬ed long enough to accept a job wkha publishing company and to changehis views of things literary. Writingcompositions and selling stories weretwo different things, he reasoned.And one summer’s day found himheaded back to Chicago to resumestudies in chemistry and rekindle thetorch he had dreamed of in his youth.He arrived at LaSalle street sta¬tion and feeling thirsty crossed thestreet to Joe’s bar for a beer. He Editor,The Daily Maroon:In the "Cerebral Salvage" columnin Friday’s Maroon, John Morrisdiscusses an existing situation con¬cerning the use of Ida Noyes Hallwhich, at least to my way of think¬ing, constitutes another barrier .to¬wards building the more unified andintegrated social life on this campusthat John is advocating.Scores of separate fraternities,clubs, dormitories, and InternationalHouse groups combined with the lo¬cation of the University in a largecity with many students living farfrom the quadrangles, all conscious¬ly or unconsciously tend toward ereating social segmentalization. Buteven more basic is the fact thatthere does not exist on this campus(excepting the scarcely adequateCoffee Shop) any one place that canbe called a center of student sociallife, any place where all students,both masculine and feminine, canmeet informally, where new ac¬quaintances may be made, wheregreater social unification and solid-arity will be encouraged.Many other, universities providefor all this in their Student Unionbuildings. The nearest approach toanything similar to be found here isReynolds club for men and IdaNoyes Hall for women, with their di¬vision on the line of sex which hasgrown up by tradition rather than bylogic and which seems slightly out ofkeeping with the concept of a coed¬ucational school. Moreover, neitherof these places can be called trulycenters of social interest for eithermen or women as a whole, being in¬habited almost solely by certain defi¬nite groups, often not even composedof University students, with nothinglike a broad cross section of campuslife represented.On behalf of the management ofIda Noyes, it must be said thata few, though in many cases some¬what feeble and unsuccessful, at¬tempts were made this year to pro¬vide a program of open activities forboth men and women. However,even these attempts, due to otherpoor planning and entirely toomuch dependence upon a sadly lack¬ing student initiative, have come tobe participated in almost entirely bycertain small, fixed groups. For ex¬ample, a program of social dancemixers twice a week at noon was be¬gun, but due to a poor use of avail¬able facilities, poorer music, and alack of advertising, they also sooncame to be attended by only a fewstudents, and finally to fold up en¬tirely.The establishment of one or twodefinite centers of campus social lifecan be brought about only by a defi¬nite and positive program. Ida NoyesHall and Reynolds Club betweenthem already possesses the necessaryphysical facilities to enable the es¬tablishment of something at leastanalygous to the students unions ofother schools. The elimination ofthe distinction between Reynolds andIda Noyes as men and women’s club¬houses and their designation simplyas student clubhouses, although hav¬ing separate programs of activities,will lielp in solving the problem. Un¬ doubtedly the believers in the tradi¬tional distinctions will be opposed toany such change, but when thesetraditional segregations become in¬imical to a greater student welfareand solidarity it would seem logicalthat they should be abolished by theUniversity administration. However,even within the present set-up, aconsiderably grreater cooperation, in¬tegration, and reciprocal use of facil¬ities between the two clubhousesmight aid at least somewhat inbringing the desired end.In addition to this, there wouldhave to be a definite and positive at¬tempt to get students into the habitof using the newly-offered facilities.Such a program might well be un¬dertaken by a greatly augmentedand revitalized Student Social Com¬mittee with the active cooperation ofthe Dean’s office, and The DailyMaroon. Such a movement will notSpontaneously start itself.To be effective, an undertakingof this nature would mean more thanthe sponsoring of a few dances toadvertise a football game. It mightwell mean the establishment of moreand better-planned dances, sports,and open activities daily during thenoon-hours and in the early evening,when students have a few minutesto spare, the opening of a portion ofthe Cloister Club for refreshmentsthroughout the day and evening asJohn suggests, a more informal fur¬nishing of Ida Noyes Hall and,above all, the more effective utiliza¬tion in the interests of the stu¬dent body as a whole of its vast,empty, formal rooms and halls.It might well mean many otherchanges which are as yet untried.But above all, it can mean the es¬tablishment of a new effective cen¬ter of campus socidi^ life bringingwith it a greater solidarity and unityamong the some 6,000 scattered stu¬dents of this University.Rex Horton. The Fire■Burning(Continued from page 1)tion. What education is most worthhaving? He decided that it was notphilosophy, but education abouthealth. It was perhaps on the testof usefulness that there was a waveof social science teaching in the col¬leges, succeeding the influx of thenatural sciences in the curriculum inthe Nineteenth Century. Naturally Iam strongly in favor of the continu¬ance of this wave.There are some who apparentlythink that it does not make much dif¬ference what one studies so long asit is difficult and high standards aremaintained; for one thus trains theintellect, which like a sharp tool willcut anywhere. Others like myselfsay one should learn what is useful,and whether it is difficult or not isbeside the point, since the formaltraining of the intellect' is not gen¬erally transferrable; which bringsus to the final topic of the currentdiscussion.Intellect versus Personality. Thereis in Hutchins’ proposals much em¬phasis upon the idea that the func¬tion of the college is to train the in¬tellect. This seems to be wholly ad¬mirable. I recall the advice an oldtimer gave me on hearing my firsteffort at public speaking. He said,"that was an excellent speech, Og-burn, but you must always rememberthat they feed out of a low trough.”The swill that is poured into the lowtroughs is part of the cult of the low¬brow that seems to be correlatedwith mass production. Amid all theballyhoo about football, dances, fra¬ternities, amateur dramatics, astrong clear call on behalf of the in¬tellect is certainly refreshing. somewhat the emotional slant of themind. But is not the best check, asthe history of science seems to show,the piling up of fact and evidence?The debonair intellect is beautiful inliterature, but may it not come togrief in business, where the checkof commercial failure is ever pres¬ent? Responsibility reins in thewayward intellect in the practicalworld, but is adequate responsibilityeasy to find in the resources of theproposed college training? Not un¬less training in facts is used as acheck.The other reservation concerns tho^object of education. Is it to train theintellect or the personality? I believethat proposed schemes of reorganiza¬tion here overlook the importance ofpersonality-training in college. His¬torically the personality has beenlargely trained by the family, thechurch and the community. But asthese institutions decline they throwthe burden of developing the person¬ality on the schools, whether theywant to assume the responsibility ornot. I imagine few school headswould want to proclaim to the worldthat their schools are assuming re-I sponsibility for training the person-I ality. But the social forces are thatI way whether we like it or not. They! affect the primary schools most, butcan higher education escape? I havetalked to scores of parents aboutwhere they should send their childrento college. I do not seem to recallany who showed much concern overwhere was the best place to train theintellect. But without exception,they were concerned over where thepersonality would be best trained.They want to know whether Middle-town college, for instance, is so largethat their offspring may be lost inthe crowd, whether the fraternity sit¬uation is wholesome, what the com¬petition will be in making the team,what class of students go there, etc.,etc. Page HureeOffer Aids forPart-Time Work;Service Is StudiedAs an aid to students desiring part>time work, the Bureau of Vocation¬al Guidance and Placement suppliesbooklets to serve as guides in twoprincipal fields of student occupa¬tion.

But there are two reservationswhich should be made upon the un¬bridled “intellectualism” of "TheHigher Learning.” One concerns thetraining of the intellect outside thefield of art, literature and certaincorrelated interests. In other fieldsdoes not the training of the intellectbecome a training in science? Canthe intellect be properly schooledwithout a lot of emphasis on facts?The big idea here is that the intel¬lect is not an independent faculty,as current proposals' would some¬times lead us to believe. Its connec¬tion with the emotions is so closethat a sharp intellect is often like afast vehicle with bias driving at thewheel. So the intellect may come tothe mirror of the day dreams of thewishful thinker. Paranoiacs may beas logical as professors of logic. Intel¬lect is a dangerous tool in the handsof prejudice. Debate helps to check The extra-curricular activities aretremendously important. At Prince¬ton the "college life” was so richlydeveloped that it could be arguedthat a boy could get a very valuableeducation, so far as his personalitywas concerned, if there were no |teachers and the library was closed. Can the extra-curricular activities ofstudents be left alone, forgotten?Rather do they not, in an urban col¬lege, require unusual attention?But however these various policiesmay be decided, it is most importantthat the students of the Universityof Chicago express their voice onthem as these policies are shaped.The editors of The Daily Maroon de¬serve high credit for opening its col¬umns for such a forum.=♦< >>> ->■>» >P‘ *>pi >•» >>ANNUM Bj walked through swinging doors intoI a .smoking room whose long polished! bar reflected only the face of Joe’snew bartender.

I expect Norm Bickel tostart our victory string by retaininghis Big Ten singles crown.” Withthese parting words, Coach WalterHebert and the powerful Maroon ten¬nis squad left yesterday for Ann Ar¬bor, Michigan where they will opentheir attack on the Conference nethonors this afternoon.Captain Norbert Burgess, in ashort and emphatic statement, said,“W’e wrill win the title.” Max David¬son, assistant coach, was much moreinclined to comment. In the opinionof Hebert’s “Man Friday,” w'ho onlya few years back was a Maroon starhimself, “On paper we have thestrongest team in the history of theschool. Only a catastrophe can keepus from winning the meet.”Record Favors MaroonsThese are strong words but thedual meet record of the Chicagosquad bears them out.

Although they were com¬peting against some of the best per¬formers in the South, the Chicagomen, Davenport, Sponsel, and Was-em, scored points in six events.John Davenport was the first tocontribute to the Maroon total whenhe placed first in the broad jump. Inaddition, he finished third in the 100meter run, participating against suchnotable runners as Collier, Indiana’scaptain, and Walker of Georgia. Hefinished the day by making the fourthbest time in the 200 meter stretch.Representing Chicago in the 400meter run was Sponsel who managedto place third. The other freshmancompeting, Wasem, trailed Calde-meyer of Indiana in the high hurd¬les to capture second spot. Wasemalso made the second highest jumpof the day and placed third in the200 meter low hurdles.These promising results togetherwith the excellent showing made bythe freshmen prospects during prac¬tice indicate that the Maroon squadmay be able to make a more impres¬sive mark in Big Ten circles nextyear. At present many of the firstyear men are capable of defeatingvarsity men.Coach Ned Merriam is counting onDavenport and Lawrence Hirsch towin points in the dashes as both havedone :9.9 for the century.
