The trips will be viaTranscontinental Western Airlines,and may be taken during Christmasvacation.The first prize will include theprice of a five-day stay in a promi¬nent hotel in New York. The secondand third prizes will be divided be¬tween a boy and a girl, in order thata member of each sex will be certainto be rewarded.Members of the Maroon editorial,business, and circulation staffs arenot eligible for the competition.Subscription books may be obtainedat the office of The Daily Maroon inLexington Hall. Each mail subscrip¬tion sold will count slightly morethan each three-dollar subscription.Committee AnnouncesTentative Schedule ofTransfer OrientationTentative program for TransferOrientation Week, which this year ex.tends from October 5 to October 16,includes a tea, two dances, and twodinners.The first event will be a tea, givenby the YWCA at Ida Noyes Hall to¬morrow. A tea dance has been plan¬ned for the following day in the IdaNoyes Theater. A dinner on October8 at Burton Court, a dance at IdaNoyes on October 15, and an enter¬tainment at the home of Dean andMrs. Charles W. Gilkey on October16, complete the program.This is the second year in whichan orientation week has been heldfor transfer students as well asfreshmen. Heads of this year’s com¬mittee are Edgar Faust and MaryLou Price, both of whom were activeduring Transfer Week last year. As¬sisting them are Jane Rinder, AdaSteele, Wanda Odele, Carolyn Wahl-strand, Wilma Fay Ecton, LouisRuthenburg, William Young, HarryHess, Bradford Browm, and RichardPrescott, all of whom have trans¬ferred from some other school to theUniversity, and hence are acquaintedwith the problems of transfer stu¬dents.The transfer week program is de¬signed to introduce the transfer stu¬dent to the campus rather than toform a complete activity schedule.Quadrangles Maintain TraditionsIn Spite of Academic RevolutionAs Roosevelt is to the New Deal,as ham is to eggs, as Scotch is tosoda, so are traditions to a campus.Though at 46 years old an upstartamong institutions of higher learn¬ing, the University already can boastsome old traditions, which carry onin the face of constant changes/ inacademic policy.Most virile of the University’s cus¬toms is the Interfraternity Sing. In¬itiated in 1911, the Sing is partici¬pated in each year by hundreds ofalumni who return during the firstweek of June. Held in HutchinsonCourt before a crowd of 10,000, thecolorful event is in part broadcast.An alumni committee presents cupsto the fraternity with best qualitysinging and to the fraternity havingthe largest number of members pres¬ ent.Not as old as the InterfraternitySing, but rivaling it for continuity,the Washington Prom each year cli¬maxes the University social calendar.Last year Dick Jurgens’ orchestraplayed at the 33rd annual affair.Duck FreshmenBiggest threat to freshmen isducking in the Botany Pond. Sincethe Buildings and Grounds depart¬ment removed logs and stones fromthe pond two years ago, its chiefhazards are water and mud.

Dean Aaron J. Brumbaugh willgive an address on the College re¬quirements, and discussion will fol¬low. The dinner will start at Hutch¬inson Commons at 6 and will befinished in time to allow students toget to the President’s reception at 8.Tickets for the dinner are 76 cents.Buffet SupperA buffet supper, scheduled for Sun¬day evening, will be accompanied bysinging and informal talks on the lessfamiliar student activities such asthe band, choir, and Chapel Council.Students will meet at the home ofDean and Mrs. Charles W. Gilkey5802 Woodlawn Avenue, and go fromthere to the Cloister Club, Ida NoyesHall.*To help freshmen become acquaint¬ed with each other, an informal freedance has been planned for tomorrowevening. It will be held in Ida Noyesgymnasium from 8 until midnight.Experience has shown that during thefirst hour the men and women standat opposite sides of the dance floorand dare each other to ask someoneto dance, despite the vehement ex¬hortations of the sweating seniors incharge of the affair. Then they aregiven numbers, paired off forcibly,and everyone enjoys himself. TonyFambro will supply music.Tours of ChicagoFor the benefit, principally of out-of-town students, a number of toursof Chicago will be held Saturday af¬ternoon. Further details about thesetrips will be given in the first regu¬lar issue of the Maroon, October 1.The usual activities dinners are al¬so scheduled for tomorrow. At thistime, speakers from each of the prin¬cipal student organizations will de¬scribe the various activities they rep¬resent and tell how freshmen mayjoin them.Welcome to the City GrayEntering Freshmen May Choosefrom List of Forty Elective StudiesEvaluation of Course De¬pends on Professor asWell as Subject Matter.All freshmen, willing or no,eventually become resigned to thefact that they must be exposed tothe dangers and advantages of thesurvey courses. Through solicitousupperclass counselors, well-meaningdeans and anxious" fraternity-clubrushers can attempt in paternalfashion to confide their personalformulas for “Getting Through theSurveys,” the courses still remain anegnima which each freshman mustsolve for himself.But in the field of elective subjects,of which there are 40, the undergrad¬uate has ample opportunity to runhaywire, to study the subject whichlies closest to his heart, and perhapsprepare himself for future study inhis chosen field. And the surprisingthing is that though deans advise andTime Schedules abound, the fresh¬man often in bewilderment finds him¬self signed up for a course entirelydistasteful to him, merely because hedidn’t know that other courses ex¬isted.Usually the entering student takestwo survey courses in his first year,in addition to English 102 and oneelective. All courses numbered inthe lOO’s are open to freshmen,usually with no prerequisite.One of the most popular sequencecourses is the English 130, 131, 132and 141 survey, which includes thestudy of Poetry, Shakespeare and achoice of Drama or Fiction. Profes¬sors can literally make or break thecourse. There is Norman Maclean, the young, vitriolic intellectual whohas become noted for his inability tobe outargued and his occasional wit¬ticisms; Walter Blair, who is infinite¬ly a more tolerant, mild manneredgentleman; James Weber Linn whohas achieved renown as a novelistand disapproval for lecturing on Linnwhen the class is scheduled as Poetry—and Mrs. Flint, known for hergraciousness and ability.Another sequence popular amongundergraduates is B-Z-P, otherwiseknown as Botany, Zoology and Physi¬ology, essential to students who planto enter the Biological Sciences. Con-(Continued on page 8)Freshmen Ungird Loins for Annual Ducking Millionaire Ben ton Drops Business toBecome Vice-President of University. . . "Wearers of the green" this year eagerly await chance to re-enact this last-year clash between freshmen andhated sophomores by the banks of Botany Pond ... Having amassed a million dollarsat the age of 36, William B. Benton,world tourist, comes to the MidwayMonday to begin his role as a publicservant—a vice-president of one ofthe major educational institutions ofthe world.Mr. Benton has spent an interest¬ing summer. In India he turnedjournalist in writing the year’s onlynewspaper interview of MahatmaGandhi. In China, be made his firstspeech on behalf of the University toPeiping alumni club. He writes thatthis was his first public talk sincethe old days when he was a colleagueof President Hutchins on the Yale de¬bating team, except for some earlyorations advertising some soap.The millionaire educator, who willjoin Frederic Woodard and EmeryFilbey on the vice-president staff ofthe University, met his wife in Singa¬pore, whence they traveled throughthe Dutch East Indies. Mr. Bentonreports that the isle of Bali impressedhim more than any other place hevisited on his world tour. It was apeaceful, beautiful spot where hecould rest up for the difficult but in¬teresting tasks he must perform asan executive of the City Gray.After returning to America lastmonth, Mr. Benton flew from SanFrancisco to Chicago, where he spentone busy day. That was not his firstvisit to these quadrangles. In thesummer of 1936 he made a study ofpublic opinion in the University forthe Board of Trustees. He also spentsix weeks here last autumn, after re¬signing as head of the Benton andBowles advertising agency of NewYork, one of the two largest radioadvertising agencies in the UnitedStates.The able and pleasant leader isnow in New York City preparing to take up residence in Chicago by thefirst of next week, bringing his wifeand six-year old son. The latter willenter the University elementaryschool this fall.One of the interesting facts in thelife of Benton is that, in spite of hisformer devotion to business life*, hesprings from an academic family. Hisfather was a professor of romancelanguages at the .University of Min¬nesota, and his mother the head of aschool in St. Louis and member of thefaculty of Barnard College in NewYork. Benton, too, has always aspiredto be a public servant.(Continued on page 5)Marco Polo ArrivesWilliam B. Benton. Takes over vice-presidency of Univer¬sity after building fortune and touring theEast . . .Page Two UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO, MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 27, 1937Nearly Two-Thirdsof the freshmen entering the University to¬day will not graduate from the University fouryears from now. About one-third will not evenreturn to the quadrangles next year. This canbe said with the finality of the actuary’s mor¬tality tables.The two who will not graduate represent atremendous failure. Some fail merely in purse,some merely find other campuses greener, butmany fail to find anything worth while at theUniversity, many fail to make satisfactory so¬cial adjustment, some simply flunk out.As to the third, many doubts may properlybe entertained as to the fulness of his educa¬tion. Some of them will be explored in thiscolumn in the future, but the main lacks maybe enumerated.The social life of the campus is distortedand puny. This is inevitable in some de^ee ina big city where amusements are individualand off-campus. But little effort has been madeto counteract the condition.There is practically no intellectual commun¬ity between the various disciplines either. Mostof the faculty could not pass the four surveycourses. That is, they have no information incommon. Still more, almost no professor iscapable of formulating any conclusions commonto all the divisions and departments of the Uni¬versity. That is, they have no ideas in common.Again, there is no community of aimsamong the students. Some are here to makemoney, some to make a living after graduation.Some are here for fun, some because their par¬ents sent them, some because it seemed theeasiest thing to do, some are concerned with anintellectual orientation in the world.The University has been called a new worldoften. It is really a great number of new worldseach engrossed in itself and its aims.To be successful in this diversity there is asimple formula, deadly hard to put into action.It is: decide what you are here for, reason outwhat is to be done to achieve your end, or ends,and then reduce the pattern of action soworked out to habit.Most students of course want intellectualtraining and more information. Equally, mostdo not have the habits to cope with the educa¬tional methods of the University and the unre¬strained personal freedom of the campus. Thereis a vast adjustment to be made in each fresh¬man’s personal habits, an adjustment whicheach must make for himself.The way is plain; but to drift along with oldhabits or form new ones incompatible with theends you consciously set yourself is easy. Yoursuccess in the University depends on the habitsyou form during the next few weeks.And the terrible ‘ part of the situation isthat your fate is already determined by yourintelligence and the habits you already have.Advice such as this may turn only an alreadyequal balance.No, your future is not necessarily rosy.MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 27, 1937W^lt Batly ^aroonFOUNDED IN 1901Member Associated Collegiate PressThe Daily Maroon is the official student newspaper of the Uni¬versity of Chicago, published mornings except Saturday, Sunday,and Monday during the Autumn, Winter, and Spring quarters byThe Daily Maroon Company, 5831 University avenue.

There are two columns on each side of thedoors, and about 20 in the paper. It was built for theFair of ’93, and still stands up, but nobody knows how.Rumor says it was condemned years ago, w’hich doesn’tbother anyone but the cockroaches. Girls who worklate at night in The Hall say these cockroaches are twofeet long and shake the building. They stamp. Theyrun around and look worried and every once in a whileBuilding and Grounds department comes over and in¬stalls new timbers under the floor. Then the cockroachesare happy for a while, and spend their spare time inpropogation, which they are good at.Right smack in the middle of Lexington Hall is theUniversity Bakery. The bakery has intimidated thecockroaches, and they don’t come in there. The bakeryis right down the hall from The Maroon offices, whichmight explain why there is so little dough and so muchcrust in The Maroon.Come over for tea sometime,MINGLE, DAMMIT.

I don’t think itdid much good.Harry and Bob and Marty won’t ask you to minglelike that, but they have declared all rules of introduc¬tion off for the next few days. Take advantage of itand make a hundred friends. It’ll be the best chanceyou get for a long time. Buildings and Grounds FreshensUniversity for Autumn QuarterGrooming of University buildingsfor the new quarter is well underway, with a staff of nearly 500 menbusily employed, according to LymanR. Flook, superintendent of Buildingsand Grounds.The major improvement will be therepartitioning of the Law schoolbasement whereby five new smallconference and class rooms have beenbui’.t to relieve the pressure on theover-crowded building.In addition the new pavement be¬side the Coffee Shop, gift of lastyear’s graduates has been finished.The progrram of replacement of ce¬ment walks by slabs of cut sandstoneon the quadrangles was continued bythe construction of a new walk be¬side the Classics building. The Uni¬versity high school office was also re¬modeled. ^The heaviest job for September ismaintenance work. Extensive paint¬ing, and plastering has been done,though less than last year in an ef¬fort to recover from the dilapidationof the depression.Progress Rapidly on GoodspeedThe two big construction jobs ofthe past half year progressed satis¬ factorily, though shortage of menheld up the Public AdministrationClearing House during the earlysummer, according to Flook. The re¬construction of Goodspeed Hall tomake it a new art building has goneon so fast that the building will'beopen for occupancy about Christmas,according to present plans. ThePACH will take another two monthsor so before completion.Register for Jobsat Placement BureauLocated in room 216 of Cobb Hall,the Board of Vocational Guidance andPlacement helps students find employ¬ment during the term and during thesummer, as well as permanent posi¬tions in the fields of business, indus¬try, end teaching, after graduation.Students in need of this servicemay register with the Board duringthe interviewing hours of 9:30 to 12and 2 to 3.

The cere¬mony there harks back to the days ofearly Greece. On the third night ofthe freshmen’s first week on campus,they all gather at the site of the firstUniversity building, which is alsowhere the first settlers of the citycamped.A speech is made to the freshmen,telling of the customs and traditionsof the University, after which a fireis lighted in a firebasket “by one ofthe honorary senior women. This istransferred to an honorary seniorman and carried into the stadium.

These figures far surpass anythat the administration had hoped forand show that the New Plan has bee.uconsidered by, and met with the ap¬proval of, many educators in theUnited States.The proposed Four Year Collegeunit, which was drawn up by a com¬mittee of College and UniversityHigh School teachers under the chair¬manship of Aaron J.

Rockefellerwho appears most prominentlythroughout the whole period. The oldChicago University, started in 1857,died from financial exhaustion in1886. Six years later Rockefeller do¬nated $600,000 to a fund for thefounding of a new University of Chi¬cago. The University was founded asa Baptist institution, and RockefellerAndrew J. McLaughlin. , . Pulitzer prize winner in history for hisstudy of American constitutional history ... the world’s store of knowledge—aplan which has been adhered to, moreor less faithfully, ever since. Theoriginal plan divided the Universityinto three general divisions; the Uni¬versity proper, the University Exten¬sion, and the University publicationw^ork. The “University proper” wasto include Academies, Colleges, Affi¬liated Colleges, and Schools. The“Colleges” consisted of the Collegesof Liberal Arts, Science, Literature,and Practical Arts. The “Schools”were to include those in graduatew’ork, divinity, law, engineering, ped¬agogy, fine arts, and music. The “Ex¬tension,” like the present UniversityCollege, presented lecture courses inthe evening, a night school, and a cor¬respondence school.In order to carry out his plan. Dr.Harper gathered about him many ofthe foremost educators and scholarsof the day. By paying an extremelyhigh salary (for those days) of$7,000 to his chief professors, he ob¬tained the services of nine collegepresidents, and such famous men asThomas C. Chamberlin, the brilliantgeologist whose son is prominent inthe present geology department; Al-i ibert A. Michelson, Nobel prize phy-^sicist; Ernest De Witt Burton, a bib¬lical scholar who later became thirdpresident; Eliakim H. Moore, mathe¬matician; John Coulter, botanist andfather of the Merle Coulter all pres-sent Biological Science students know; and Charles 0. Whitman, bi¬ologist.Field Donates LandProperty of the University in 1892was rather meagre. Marshall Fieldhad given ten acres of undrained,swampy land near Ellis Avenue be¬tween 56th and 57th street, on whichAlbert A. Michelsonj . . .

Even at that early date,however, an extensive plan was madefor future addition of buildings tokeep pace with curricular advance¬ments.From 1892 on, donations of wealthyindividuals have allowed the buildingplan to proceed in accordance withthe founders’ expectations. Altogeth¬er, considerably more than ten thou¬sand donations were received by theclose of the first quarter century ofthe University’s existence. The mostprominent benefactor was John D.Rockefeller, who gave a total of morethan $78,500,000 during his lifetime.Other major contributors include Ju¬lius Rosenwald, Martin Ryerson, Ho¬bart Williams, Marshall Field, HelenCulver, Mrs. Emmons Blaine, and— —I ■■ II in r"oh, yes!—Charles Walgreen.-Dr. Harper lived only long enoughto see his school start its great periodof expansion.

Sharpless HickmanWith three plays running concur¬rently, the theatre season is alreadystarted on a scale greater than thatof any year since the depression.In “Brother Rat,” producer GeorgeAbbott has brought a hilarious pic¬ture of college life to the SelwynTheatre. The play was turned downby several New York producers be¬fore Abbott took it up and saw itthn)ugh a successful season in NewYork and three American and oneEuropean road-companies.The plot revolves around the lifeof “Brother Rats” at the VirginiaMilitary Institute. (At VMI a rat is a freshman, while a brother rat isany cadet past his first year.) Thevillain of the piece is old man disci¬pline; the hero, the conventional andauthority-defying cadets, Bing, Billyand Dan.The characters are modern collegi¬ans; strangers neither to sex prob¬lems nor petty politics—and withoutany intellectual concern to spoil theirfun.* * *The plot is complicated, hinging onthe complications from the fact thatBing’s wife is to have a baby—though according to academy rulescadets can’t have wives, much lessbabies. Many are the devices usedby the cadets to keep themselvesfrom being found out. Their effortsget them in deeper and deeper untilthe Colonel’s daughter and herfriend appear as rescuers. The pre¬dicaments of the characters and theirdevices for keeping out of trouble putthe audience into gales of laughter.The performance is good; thecharacters are well cast for the lighteffervescent farce. The parts of thethree cadets are taken by Paul Ed¬wards as Bing, Edwin Phillips asBilly and Tom Ewall as Dan.

Strom as Joyce (the Colonel’s daugh¬ter), Marie Drown as Claire, thestudious chemist.In addition to the ninth month ofKaufman-Hart’s riot, “You Can’tTake It With You,” the other playon the boards is “The Women,” anintrigue of infidelities in the restora¬tion tradition. It is an unusual pro¬duction; about 40 women comprisethe entire cast. Writtenby a woman,Clare Booth, it is an unmerciful sa-tir on the anything but fair sex.* * *Apt to be overlooked in the morassof comedies (see above) on the met¬ropolitan boards, is the evening ofshort' plays being presented at thedilapidated Princess Theatre by theWPA group. Genuinely entertaining,and definitely meritorious consider¬ing the production difficulties arisingfrom the use of this theatre, thesefour one-act plays bring back graci¬ously the small evening in the inti¬mate theatre.

His latestbid for fame is “The Higher Learn¬ing in a Democracy,” in which heattacks President Hutchins and hisschool of thought.

His policy is to emphasize theoffense, rather than the defense, andto play a wide-open game. Duringthe winter months. Coach Shaughnes¬sy defends his reputation as the besthandball player on the campus.Speaking of football naturallybrings to mind the first and fore¬most sports enthusiast on the facul¬ty, James Weber (Teddy) Linn, pro¬fessor of English. A graduate of theearly days of the University, hepublished the novel “This Was Life,”depicting the undergraduate life ofthe campus three decades ago. Thiswas followed last year by “WindsOver the Campus,” which illustratedsimilarly, campus life of the present.His chief pride is the breadth of hisacquaintance among the undergradu¬ate body.Adler and AristotleMortimer J. Adler, at the oppositepole among the faculty, is famed forhis fluency and subtlety in debate,and heads the vigorous neo-scholasticmovement among the intellectuals ofthe campus. A close personal friendof President Hutchins, Professor Ad¬ler is a great admirer of the philos¬ ophy of Thomas Aquinas, and seeksto create among his students an ap¬preciation of the intellectual virtuesas defined by Aristotle and Thomas.Hutchins and Adler lead a weeklyclass discussion of the great worksof philosophy, which is open to stu¬dents on the divisional level.Frank Hurburt O’Hara, associateprofessor of English, is the guidinggenius of the dramatic activity ofthe campus.

It is far cry fromthe days when all school businesscould be transacted in Cobb Hall, thewell-battered pioneer of Universitybuildings which still stands as thelandmark-center of College life.Traditionally the official hangout ofcollege students, Cobb is ready againthis fall decked out in a new coat ofpaint to welcome another freshmanclass. From the famed “C” bench atits front entrance to the Alumniheadquarters on its topmost fioor,Cobb probably is steeped in Traditionand Custom more than any otherbuilding. The first floor accommo¬dates the Dean of the Physical Sci¬ences, the Student Promotion office,the ^gistrar’s office, Social Service.Administration headquarters and theOffice of Admissions.Climbing the well-worn steps to thesecond fioor, one encounters the officesof the Dean of the College, an impor¬tant man in any undergraduate’s life,the Humanities, Social Science andBiological division deans and theBoard of Vocational Guidance andPlacement, which is merely anothername for the student employmentagency.Cobb LibraryCobb library, which occupies thegreater part of the third fioor, haslong ago become the mecca of collegestudents since it contains all the re¬quired readings of the Humanitiesand Social Science survey courses onits shelves, in addition to housing theHumanities and Social Science offices(in other words, the headquarters forsurvey discussion leaders.)The fourth floor consists mainly ofAlumni Council offices, the Universityof Chicago Alumni magazine andmodern language reading room.The largest, most complete libraryon campus, however, is lodged in thetwin towered building facing the Mid¬way, named after William RaineyHarper, first president of the Univer¬sity. First floor west tower is hal¬lowed by the presence of PresidentHutchins’ office.On the same floor, behind artisticdoorways can be found the SocialScience reading room, offices of ther)ean of Faculties, the Board of Trus¬tees and the Publicity Office. All inall, first floor Harper unquestionablybelongs to the Administration. As¬cending by elevator (there really isone) to the third floor, you stop atthe Harper main reading room, whichis the antithesis of Cobb.

One ofthe country’s best Lincoln relic col-lections can also be found in Harper,as well as a museum devoted to thesanctification of Napoleon.Julius Rosenwald Hall gains dis¬tinction primarily as the headquar¬ters of the Geology and Geographydepartments, and as the main Chica¬go branch of the United Statesweather bureau. Weather predictionsfor the day may be read on the largemap situated on the main floor. Alibrary which has earned an enviablereputation as a crypt of silence, de¬voted to scientific literature, is lo¬cated on the second floor.Across the circle, another scientificstronghold housed in one of the new¬est and most modern buildings oficampus, Bernard Eckhardt hall whichcontains the Mathematics, Physicsand Astronomy departments. On themain floor, a spacious, up-to-date lec¬ture hall is devoted to lectures in thePhysical Science survey course whilethe second floor lodges a popular,comfortable reading room, repletewith a library of 55,000 scientificvolumes, individual study rooms, andcomfortable chairs.Directly north of Eckart standsLeon Mandel Hall, home of dramaticproductions, symphony concerts, bene¬fit performances and survey lectures.From the entrance of Mandel, zeal¬ously guarded by an officer duringclass time, extends a cloister to thebase of Mitchell Tower, the loiteringplace of many students between class¬es and after school. Modeled afterthe tower of Magdalen, Oxford, Mit¬chell Tower rises serenely above Uni¬versity Avenue. Its chimes, whichare in part a contribution of AmosAlonzo Stagg, Chicago’s grand oldman of football, are played at 10:06every evening, as an athlete’s curfew,in accordance with his stipulation.SELWYNSS fcVo'l ™w PlayingTHE LAUGH HIT EVERYBODY LOVESIA fir A RAP ARRATTBROTHERRATtt JOHN MBMKI JR.anp HID >■# A COLLEGEf COMEDYEVES. 5$e to S1.7S MATS.

Students defic¬ient in language credits or those whoneed the subject for entrance to adivision are usually advised to includeat least a year of language on theirschedules.To those inclined toward science ormedicine, General Chemistry, 104,106 and 120 or 130 will prove essenti¬al. Prerequisites include either highschool physics or the Physical Sciencesurvey course. Versatile ProfessorSchlesinger, who has achieved recog¬nition as author, chemist and histori¬an, teaches the class during firstquarter.General Physics, like chemistry al¬so requires at least a year of thestudy in high school or the PhysicalScience survey and is enhanced bythe professorship of Harvey Lemon,genial, ruddy faced scholar with asense of humor. Mathematics, Geol¬ogy and Geography are still othersubjects in the Physical Scienceswhich can be approached by enteringfreshmen.In the realm of culture can bementioned the Movements of Thoughtsurvey which is merely anothername for an elementary study ofphilosophy. The course is gracedwith the presence of T. V. Smith, whoin his spare time manages to speakover radio systems and occupy alegislator’s chair at Springfield, andconsequently never seems to havequite finished preparing his lectures.'Though the Music and Art depart¬ments are decidedly not the Universi¬ty’s most esteemed departments, theydc offer elementary courses in theappreciation of music—a historicalintroduction to art, though the artcourse is reputed to be badly organ¬ized.With such a vast array of subjectsto choose from, the freshman surelywill find some sphere of knowledgewhich interests him and helps to pavethe way to Higher Learning.

Im¬portant factors which contributed toits fame include the Oriental Insti¬tute, considered to be the greatestarcheological organization in theworld; a new planetesimal hypothesisof the origin of the earth; the devel¬opment of a new’ anaesthetic which isnow used throughout the world; andpreliminary research which paved theway for the discovery of insulin.Founder of the science of sociologyand possessed of perhaps the best so¬cial science division of any school inthe country, the University has co¬operated with several semi-govern-mental bureaus dealing writh prob¬lems of public administration.Many of the new bureaus of thefederal government draw Chicagog^raduates to fill responsible positions.President Roosevelt’s famous (shallwe say notorious?) adviser, BenjaminCohen, who with the jovial Thomas(Tommy the Cork) Corcoran is re-puted to be responsible for many ofRoosevelt’s legfislative proposals, is analumnus.Distinguished ProfessorsUnique among universities, Chicagohas on its faculty five Charles L.Hutchinson Distinguished ServiceProfessors: Norman L. Bowser, ageologist, who begins work here this year; Rudolph Carnap, one of Ameri¬ca’s few recognized philosophers; Ar¬thur H. Compton, Nobel prize physi¬cist; Leonard E. Dickson, mathema¬tician; and Werner W. Jaeger, classi¬cist. It is interesting to note that noother university in the United Stateshas more than two faculty membershonored thus.In the course of 45 years, the Uni¬versity has set up and become inte¬grated with professional schools, Bill¬ings Hospital, the laboratory schools,Arthur H.

Spon¬sored by Blackfriars as an annualpromotion stunt during the twoweeks of the Spring quarver beforethe opening of the men’s musicalcomedy, the contest is judged by“Brad,” Reynolds club head barber,who shaves clean all entrants at thebeginning of the contest and caliperstheir bush at the end of the fortnighta high school, and an elementaryschool. It has often been said thatit is possible for a person to spendall of his life on the Campus and yetlive an almost normal life. He wouldbe born in Billings Hospital, enterthe elementary school and proceed upthe scale of University schools untilhe became a very erudite old man.We trust that the Board of Trusteeswould allow him to be buried in theChapel yard!Thus our school has risen from theashes of bankrupt Chicago Universityto an outstanding educational institu¬tion with an endowment of more thanone hundred million dollars. Eventhis incomplete record of its achieve¬ments shows that the University stillpromises to continue on the pathmarked out for it by its first presi¬dent. marathon.Chimes Ring CurfewAmos Alonzo Stagg, “grand oldman” of University football, donatedthe money which bought the chimesof Mitchell Tower, stipulating thateach night at 10:06 the chimes shouldring athlete’s curfew with the play¬ing of the Alma Mater. Curfew stillrings, but most of today’s athletesare deaf. However, at football gamesand other events, all students invari¬ably rise at the playing of the AlmaMater.Since the class of 1903 gave theUniversity “C” bench opposite themain entrance to Cobb hall, there hasarisen the tradition that only seniors,C men, and those they invite may sitin the stone semi-circle. Breach of this regulation will bring a freshmana prompt submersion.No “Frats”University students pride them¬selves that in accord with the spiritof the College plan they are muchmore mature than students else¬where. Accordingly there are no“frats” or “co-eds” at the University,although “necking” is the same hereas at any other institution of higherlearning. Called “the University ofChicago” or ‘?the University,” theschool is never “Chicago University."It is with sadness that old timersregard the decline of one of the Uni¬versity’s oldest symbolisms, that noone shall step on the great brass sealembedded in the floor of MitchellTower.FOUNTAIN LUNCHEONUniversity Pharmacy, Inc.1321 East 57th StreetHYDE PARE 0331TOILETRIES - DRUGS - PRESCRIPTIONSIn THE SATURDAY EVENING POST thiS WeekBuildings—(Continued from page 7)the manufacturing and publishing ofbooks and journals, retailing text¬books and supplies through the book¬store, and purchasing books for li¬braries.Noted throughout the world as acenter of archeological study, the Ori¬ental Institute, now renamed Breast¬ed Hall after its distinguished found¬er, stands as the world’s first labora¬tory to study mankind and the riseUniversity Chapel. . .
