The first, andmost unsatisfactory, is the lecture;which requires nothing from the stu¬dent. A variant of the lecture sys¬tem, the discussion group, is better;at least the student is active in check¬ing his theoretical suppositions.An ordinary laboratory course often 1arouses no more real understanding!of the material than a lecture, sincethe students accept the procedures)and facts as uncritically as in a lec-jture. The be.st method is a combina-|tion of laboratory and discussionwork. The students, after a discus-1sion taking them as far as they havefactual knowledge, raise questionsthat they must answer by their own'experimentation. They must decide jwhat the yare looking for and work,out for themselves the procedure tobe used. “This is the essence of.science—research.” )Election of Officers |Preceding the lecture, Lloyd Jameswas elected chairman of the ASU,,Vera Ellman membership .secretary,and Evelyn Chertow executive secre¬tary. Delegates to the Peace Councilchosen at the meeting are Sara LeeBloom and Victory HimmeLstein. Peace Program Like Roosevelt’sUsed to Get Us into War”-RippgPresident Roosevelt’s pleas for in¬ternational peace programs are strik¬ingly similar to the pleas used bythose who got the United States intothe World War, J. Fred Rippy, pro¬fessor of American History told asocial science audience at the Uni¬versity yesterday afternoon.“Between August, 1936, and theend of April, 1937, the isolationistswere in the ascendancy in the UnitedStates. Although not unwilling tohave this country participate activelyin plans for preventing the indepen¬dent American states from engagingin wars among themselves, they e-vinced a storm-cellar attitude towardpotential wars in Europe,” Profes¬sor Rippy continued.He declared that when both the in¬terests and the ideals of a nation con¬verge, as the interests of munitionmakers and other exporters and theideals of the preservers of democracyconverged in 1917, and when theseideals are inflated and exalted to thestatus of cosmic conceptions, andwhen these roncepts are deemed tobe threatened, Americans, like mostmen, are ready to fight.Contending that this happened tothe United States between 1914 and1917, and may happen again, he said:“The idealists have continued towork. They are insisting that weparticipate in the League sanctions.” Discuss All-CampusActivities DancePolitical Union PartiesBattle to CompleteNomination QuotasWith the Liberals in the rear, thebattle continues to fill the 75 seats inthe Political Union as the variousparties strive to complete their nom¬inations quotas.Because of their demand for fivesignatures on each petition with no¬body being allowed to sign morethan once, the liberals need a totalof 350 names to reach their goal of70 nominees, which is double theseats they are to have. They meetthis afternoon at 3:30 in the Maroonoffice.The Radicals are in the lead innumber of petitions completed. Theirpresent allotment includes 15 Com¬munists, 10 left-wing Socialists, 6Socialists, and 10 independent radi¬cals. This means only 200 signatures,with duplication allowed.

Breckinridge, it seems,has been out of town for about twoweeks now. Carry says.The suggested reforms, drawn uplast week by the Superiors, providefirst that each member of the Boardof Superiors would be given a vote,instead of having the abbot controlhalf the total, as he does now.The second measure to democratizethe Order has the Scribe, now ap¬pointed by the incoming Prior apd^Abbot, elected by a vote of the castand members of the business staff.The last provision prohibits the ab¬bot from also being treasurer, andstates that the Hospitaller would beelected by the combined cast andchorus. Ties in votes of the Board ofSuperiors would be settled by theTrustees.The announcement of Anderson’sappointment follows last week’s rec¬ommendation by the Board of Super¬iors. Anderson, dispossessed juniormanager of last years show, “OneFoot in the Aisle,” will fill the posi¬tion vacated by Carey who advancedto the office of abbott when Callahanfailed to return to school.Plans for the proposed constitu¬tional changes were drawn up byBurnett, Carey and Leo O’Neill, hos¬pitaller.Morrison, Peace Supporter, Speakson Church in Relation to Warly been chosen to deliver the Armis-tatively planning a beer party before 1 tice Sunday sermon,the campaign finishes.

Increased University effort toward studentadjustment.2. Abolition of intercollegiate athletics.3. Establishment of Political Union.4. Revision of the College plan.5. A chastened President.6. Reform of Blackfriors.Campus CommunityThe real question that critics of the Ma¬roon’s stand on student social adjustment andathletics have raised, though obliquely, iswhether it is possible to create a vigorous stu¬dent life on campus, situated as it is in themidst of a big city.Answering this question in the negative, ourcritics then accuse the Maroon of destroying ahalf successful order in order to reach after achimera. This is the rational heart of criticism,usually heavily obscured in their presentation.The question of the possibility is one theMaroon has not considered. We have assumedthat social reconstruction was possible, or atleast that the chance of success was sufficientlygreat to warrant the abandonment of the pres¬ent weak social focus athletics provide.The choice between sitting tight in despairor of setting out in hope is one temperamentwill decide. A few considerations, though, maybe brought to support the latter. There is noquestion but that there is a vast pressure forpersonal friendship and acquaintance amongpersons on the campus. The problem is one offinding a channel for release of the potentialfellowship.Eating together, privacy, creation of groupsymbols could do this, that is, the groups pro¬posed by the Maroon could do this, if studentscould be brought to attend them. But couldthey? Spontaneous groups do arise even onthis campus, though usually around an out¬standing personality or high school nucleus.The group that refounded Beta Theta Pi threeyears ago was such a group, under the geniusof Norman Maclean. “Queer ducks” were effect¬ively assimilated in this case. Groups like theMaroons have worked in the past. The questionis whether they will work for a large propor¬tion of the students. Nothing but the attemptcan prove that.Meanwhile there are partial measures thatsuggest themselves. The entries in the men’sdormitories could be made social units by theencouragement of organized activities apartfrom the intramural teams that some now putin the field. College discussion groups could bemade less formal, more valuable, by the substi¬tution of a roundtable for the formal class-Vol. 38 NOVEMBER 5. 1937 No. 23®l|e ^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.

Gideonse Finds Platforms forPolitical Union Are “Sour Lemons”Currently holding the place ofhonor in Associate Professor of Econ¬omics H. D. Gideonse’s private tar¬get practice “Editing the News,’’ arethe platforms of the several partiesof the Political Union, as the editor“squeezes a Maroon lemon’’ and ex¬tracts “ enough juice to squirt ineverybody’s eyes.’’First in Line of FireFirst in the line of fire is the Lib¬eral platform, which advocates “strin¬gent government regulations of bus¬iness... government ownership ofpublic utilities.. .abolition of theelection of judges... ’* Also it standsstaunchly for the conservation of civ¬il liberties. “In this type of ‘Liberal’program,’’ asks Gideonse, “aren’t‘civil liberties’ a ’cultural lag’?’’Referring to the Radical Party—whose internal dissensions are latestmanifested in the three way split—as 'a “holding company for the 57 var¬ieties of collectivism,’’ the editor ofthe news next falls upon the Com¬munist platform, charging ChicagoTribune tactics. “The Communistshave always believed that socialismcan only be achieved by leading, sup- ■porting, and deepening every pro- Jgressive action of the masses,’’ theprogram modestly states. Their fur¬thering of progressive action in Ger- |many and France, points out Gideon-1se, has taken the form of supportingFascist sabotage against Socialism.Gideonse Crushes SocialistsTurning to the Socialists, Gideonsecrushes them with the charge ofgood, old fashioned Communism. Hissummary of the Left Wing platformis equally brief. Says the platform,“Forward to the revolutionaryFourth International.’’ Says Gideon¬se, “A REAL progressive will betempted to wait for the FIFTH.’’Finally comes that quintessence ofcompromise, the Conservative plat¬form, which upholds on one hand thequarantee of a minimum standard ofliving and on the other freedom ofcontract and economy in government(“We’ll see what that word meansafter we get through defining thatminimum standard of living,’’ saysGideonse ( and which is equally loudin its approval of political isolation and in its cry for more foreign trade’The program further states that “thepresent constitution and particularlythe powers of the Supreme Courtshall be maintained without furtherchange.’’ This, at least, is 100 percent conservatism,” Gideonse re¬marks. “Freeze the status quo andassume that the founding fatherswere just kidding when they put inthe amending clause.” Which, yourreporter notes, is interesting to com¬pare with the Liberal policy of re¬taining the present “democraticstructure of the United States gov¬ernment’’ by accepting the amendingclause and assuming that the founding fathers were kidding about theConstitution.SPECIAL STUDENTLUNCHEON25cREGULAR LUNCHEON35cEVENING DINNERS40cDELICIOUS FOODWE ESPECIALLY CATER TO CLUBPARTIESFREE USE OF CARD ROOMMIRA MARDINING ROOM6212 Woodlawn Ave.BARGAINS IN USED BOOKSThe Colony Book Shop1540 E. 57th St DOR. 6992Hours: 11 A.

FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 6, 1937Lettersto the EditorEditor,The Daily Maroon:In a recent editorial you expresseddissatisfaction with the Liberal plat¬form drawn up for the Political Un¬ion, and, while your criticism of itsvafrueness and indecisiveness was jus¬tified, I think that you, as well as theliberals who drew it up, failed to seethat it is the real nature of theliberal position which causes suchhelpless platforms.There are many varieties of liber¬als, but they may be classified underthree heads—those who think thatthere is a fundamental maladjustmentbetween presentday life and our poli¬tical-economic organisation, but whoare not sure what the correct organi¬zation would be, those who believethat there is grave maladjustmentbut that the best means of reorgani¬zation is gradual change, part bypart, of the present system, and thosewho believe that the present organi¬zation merely lags a little behind theneeds of present-day life, and needsto be brought up-to-date and keptflexible so that it will stay that way.These positions obviously stretch allthe way from enlightened conserva¬tism to radicalism, and the only pro¬positions that would be acceptable tosuch a range of people would be neg¬ative ones, such as free speech, flex¬ible governmental systems, and paci¬fism. In a country such as ours, wherethere is a great degree of freedomand some popular control of govern¬ment the liberals have little opportun¬ity for immediate action on anyimportant issue, though in a dictator¬ship they can quite happily join revo¬lutionary parties.It would seem that if the PoliticalUnion really wishes to get liberals in¬terested in it, at least three differentliberal platforms should be drawn up.George McElroy.YWCA Group MeetsTo Decide Peace StanceThe Public Affairs Group of theYWCA will hold a meeting this af¬ternoon in Room B of Ida Noyes hallto determine the stand it will takeTuesday at the All-Campus PeaceCouncil, Barbara Allee, chairman ofthe group, announced yesterday.The YWCA organization will sendtwo delegates to the Peace Councilwhich is preparing an Armistice Daydemonstration.SPeCtAL INTENSIVt COUtSffsoa coiiioi STuoiNTt AMa •■Aa<ur«moseriUSINISS COILIOIrauiMoait. j.A.PiiaMS.

BINDERSPage Four THE DAILY MAROON, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 5, 1937CampusScience* * *By ROBERT KYHLChemists early learned that eachelement had a characteristic constantatomic weight, i. e. the weight of oneatom of the element. The chemiststhus formed a table of atomicweights of the elements. The meas¬urements made in the preparation ofthe atomic weights were made onlarge numbers of atoms, billions ofbillions of them. As, a result, theatomic weights are averages. Thechemists were struck by the factthat an unusually large number ofthe elements had atomic weightswhich were exact multiples of thatof the lightest element, hydrogen.This led naturally to the hypothesisthat all elements were built up of afundamental block of matter, thenucleus of the hydrogen atom for ex¬ample. Those elements which did notfit this picture must then be averagesof two or more kinds of atoms of thesame chemical properties but of dif¬ferent weights, all integral multiplesof the weight of hydrogen. The differ¬ent weights of the same elementswere called “isotopes.’’Since isotopes have almost exactlythe same chemical and physicalproperties, it is exceedingly difficultto separate them for measurement orexperiment. A familiar example ofsuccessful separation is the case of“heavy water,” and “heavy hydro¬gen” produced from it, but that isanother story. Another way out is toweigh the atoms separately. This wasfirst done with gaseous atoms inelectric discharge tubes, but therange and accuracy of the measure¬ments were limited.Dempster MakesAdvances - •In 1935 this field made its largestadvance when Dr. Arthur JeffreyDempster, of the department of Phys¬ics on this campus, developed hismass spectrograph. Briefly, the ap¬paratus consists of a device for pro¬ducing separate charged atoms, amethod of focusing streams of theseatoms,.and a photographic plate forrecording the results. The ions of thematerial to be examined are formedin an electric arc. They are acceler¬ated to a high speed by fallingthrough a potential of 20,000 volts.The focusing is produced by electricand magnetic fields. Here lies thecritical point of the ' machine, foreach isotope is focused at a differentspot. The atoms then fall on thephotographic plate and are imbeddedin it. All this takes place in a highvacuum.The results of Dr. Dempster’s workhave already been far reaching. Hehas measured the exact atomicweight of isotopes of many elements.. Dr. Dempster has steadily increas¬ed the accuracy of his work until atthe present he can separate massesdiffering by one part in 50,000. Thismeans that he can weigh matter toa millionth of a millionth of amillionth of an ounce.Mass SpectroscopyBecomes ImportantWith this increasing accuracy,mass spectroscopy is becoming ofprime importance to the subject ofnuclear physics which has developedwithin the last few years. Thoughisotopes have the same chemical andphysical properties, they may differradically in reactions in which thenucleus of the atom is broken intoparts and thrown to the four winds,so to speak. Furthermore, the atomicweights differ slightly from the or¬derly values earlier imagined. Thesedifferences may be translated interms of energy content and stabilityof the atom. The relationship betweenmatter and energy probably does noteven surprise you any more. In con¬nection with this. Dr. Demspter ismaking accurate comparisons of theweights of atoms. In this work, twoatoms focus at the same point if oneis twice as heavy as the other butChicagoEthical SocietySTUDEBAKER THEATRESunday, Nov. 7th, at 11 ajn.Dr. HORACE J.

The groupstudies offer a program which singledepartments casnot give, such asthose involving a study of differentliteratures.The background for admission tothis curriclum consists of work infour fields of the Humanities, includ¬ing three courses in each. Under thecommittee one course is given, a se¬quence in the history of culture.also has twice the electrical charge.Last spring Dr. Dempster collectedon his photographic plate the sevenisotopes -of the radioactive elementSamarium. In half an hour he re-posited only a few thousand atoms ofelement. He then clamped his plateto another and left the two to lie forfour months. The second plate re¬cords radio-activity in the atoms onthe first plate and can tell which ofthe seven isotopes of Samarium areradio-active. In this way the first ex¬periment has been made on isotopeswhich cannot be separated by chemi¬cal means. Dr. Dempster reports thispreliminary experiment successfulafter examining his first plates thisfall.In the near future. Dr. Dempstersays, isotopes may be subjected tobombardment techniques of the sub¬atomic physicists, while they lie’separated on the photographic platesof the mass spectrograph.GRAND OPERAHOUSE119 N.

The can¬didates for the varsity will meet inthe Field House each afternoon. Dur¬ing these practice sessions they willwork on fundamental floor-work, andattempt to build up a speedy cage ag¬gregation to represent the Maroonsin the Big Ten.The Chicago basketeers will havemore strong reserve power to drawfrom this season, and they hope toavenge the numerous conference de¬feats that mar their past records.Varsity ReturnsAmong the candidates will be sev¬eral strong sophomore contenders forvarsity posts plus the entire varsitysquad from last season. Many of theboys have been working out each af¬ternoon by tuning up their basketeyes, and conditioning soft muscles.Numerous freshmen have been haunt¬ing the Field House hardwood forthe past few weeks, but formal prac¬tice for the them will not begin untilthe opening of the winter quarter.The elimination of the center jumpin the forthcoming season’s ruies isexpected to speed up the gjime con¬siderably, and also result in moreminutes of actual play. In the pastyears, from six to nine minutes havebeen lost lining up for the centef jump. In the closing minutes of closegames many teams have been protect¬ing their leads by taking time in lin¬ing up. This rule will also offset theadvantage held by a team with an ex¬tremely tall center. However, heightwill still be an advantage in playingrebounds, and building a good de¬fense, which will be needed to holdthe faster attack.DePaul GoodDePaul, who will face the Maroonquintet in the curtain-raiser of thecage season, is not expected to be asstrong as last year. It has lost all ofits past regulars through graduation.Last season Chicago lost numerousgames through lack of experience.With the experience already gainedby most of the current season’s can¬didates, the season outlook is muchbrighter.Among the returning men who arealready working out everyday are:Bigelow and Lounsberry, sophomorecandidates for the center post; Rich¬ardson, Isaacson, Topping, Stanley,Allen, Meyer, Wallace, all sopho¬mores; and Rossin, Durbin, Castle,Mahoney, and Jeremy from last sea¬son’s squad.

Today state laws require allpharmacists to be registered, and before they are grantedlicenses they must pass rigid examinations—examinationsthat require careful training.

Spanish Aid CommitteePresents Sound Film,“Heart of Spain,” TodayUnder the auspices of the newlyformed University of Chicago Com¬mittee for Medical Aid to Spain thesound film, “Heart of Spain,” will bepresented this afternoon at 3:30 inKent auditorium. Proclaimed by theNew Masses as “30 minutes of pic¬torial dynamite from Spain,” it illus¬trates the work of the Canadian BloodTransfusion In.stitute, which isaveshundreds of lives by transfusingblood that has been refrigeratorstored.It shows the daily life of the Span¬ish people as well as the air raids andbombardments. George 0. Pershing,a relative of General Per.shing andField Secretary of the Medical Bur¬eau to Aid Spanish Democracy, istraveling with the film and will lec¬ture. Speaking in New York City’sTown Hall, Pershing declared, “Thesuccessful defense by the people ofSpain against their Fascist enemieswill assure us of the continued safetyof our own democratic principles ofgovernment. The greatest danger inthe world today is Fascism and Amer¬ica is the apple of its eye.”During the noon hour an ambulancefrom Hollywood similar to the onethe committee hopes to purchase andsend to Spain will cruise the campus. Lipson Cites Placard AsEvidence; Pagels De¬fends Position.Freshman Groupof YWCA HoldsMeeting TodayThe freshman group of the YWCAwill hold a tea at 3:30 today in theAlumnae room at Ida Noyes, BettySmith, chairman, announced yestei^day. As its name implies, the groupis an organization interested inorienting freshman women to theYWCA, and this afternoon it willdiscuss its program for the year.As upperclass women who were ac¬tive in the freshman group last yearbut who have not indicated their in¬terest in it this year must sign newmembership cards, it is particularlyimportant for them to attend. Fresh¬man women are also invited.The music group is sponsoring a“night at the opera” next week, itwas announced yesterday. Universitywomen who are interested in goingshould leave their names in theYWCA office on the second floor ofIda Noyes before tomorrow. A laterannouncement will be made of theexact night, the opera, and the priceof tickets.The book group meets tomorrow at3:30 in the WAA room at Ida Noyesto discuss James Hilton’s work, “WeAre Not Alone.” Officials of thegroup urge members to bring theirknitting so they can keep needles andtongues clacking at the same time. The charge that there is an officialmember of the Nazi party residing inInternational House, and the admis¬sion of that charge by the person ac¬cused, topped a stormy meeting atInternational House last night.The meeting was the first of a se¬ries of round-table discussions dealingwith the foreign policy of various na¬tions, la.st night’s being concernedwith that of Germany.The accusations made by one of thespeakers, Leslie Lipson, an English¬man, arose from a placard put up onone of the bulletin boards last week.The sign urged all those interestedin the policies of New Germany anddesiring to .see German movies, toget in touch with H. J. Pagels, a newmember of the House. It was signed“P.G.,” which means, jn German,“member of the house.”Point to NaziThe first two speakers at the meet¬ing were George Messmer and VolkerRoch-Weser, both Germans. Lipson,who gave the third and final talk ofthe evening, finished his address withthe irrelevant but dramatic accusa¬tion that there was a Nazi living inthe house.In the discussion which followed,Pagels took floor frankly admit¬ting that he was the “black sheep”referred to, and proceeded to defendthe Nazi foreign policy. He made thefollowing three points: first, when theconditions on which a treaty is basedchange, the whole treaty changes.Germany was willing to make a newtreaty, but the other countries re¬fused to cooperate. Second, Germanyrefused to submit anything to arbi-1‘ation because all the judges on in¬ternational courts were her formerenemies, and hence were biased a-gainst her. Third, he denied thatthere existed pri'iciples of interna¬tional law.“I’m glad and I’m proud that I’ma Nazi,” he declared during his talk,and received the largest round of ap¬plause of the evening.He explicitly stated that the viewshe presented were his own and notthose of official Nazi Germany. Exhibition of AbstractPainting Opens Todayin Wieboldt GalleryBy IRVING JANISFor its second exhibition of thequarter, the Renaissance Gallery ofthe University is showing the workof two abstract painters, Josef Albersand E. Misztrik De Monda. The ex¬hibit opens today and will continueuntil November 30.The work of the two artists rep¬resents to an extent two dominanttendencies in contemporary abstractpainting. Josef Albers, a product ofthe German Bauhaus, evidences atendency toward complete restrictionof technical means. His paintings areof very simple design, restricted to afew geometrical forms and pure col¬ors. In this respect he allies himselfwith a large group of modern paint¬ers best exemplified by the neo-plasti-cists.De Monda’s work, like Albers’, iscompletely non-representational. How¬ever, the former’s work is of an en¬tirely different character. De Mondaexploits all of the technical elementsof abstract painting, using brilliantcolor harmonies, original forms,(slightly reminiscent of the surreal¬ist abstract W'ork of Miro) and inter¬esting texture effects. His works,when viewed as a whole, indicate thegreat virtuosity of the painter, andserve as a vivid contrast to the rela¬tively barren work of Albers.

The Student Partisan, campus mag-gazine supporting world labor, peace,and anti-fascist movements from aconfirmedly pro-action stand, willmake its first appearance this yearWednesday, November 17, having ap¬peared once previously last Spring.It is expected to appear as a semi¬quarterly thereafter.Headed by Mack Rosenthal, MarkAshin and Paul Berg, Student Parti¬san defines its position as “one whichrejects those approaches to the prob¬lems of society which drives us to¬ward a centrist, fence-straddling posi¬tion half-way between extremes, orthat lifts us to the sterile heights ofOlympian impartiality.”Claiming that students must “takea clear-cut position on all issues con¬fronting them,” Partisan will be, inthe words of its editors, “opinionatedfor action.” Articles of a theoreticalnature, artistic, and literary work,will form the chief centent of themagazine.The contributing staff includesThomas Howells, Steven Stepanchev,and Harold Kaplan. The businessstaff is headed by Elizabeth Butler,Annette Ivry, and Morris Kricevsky.All persons interested in writingfor future issues of the StudentPartisan may turn their work in toFaculty Exchange No. 77, or arrangefor a talk with one of the editors. By LAURA BERGQUISTThree out of eight Nu Pi Sigmaswere conspicuous by their absencelast June convocation. Five out ofeleven Owl and Serpent bigwigs alsodidn’t attend. At least four consecu¬tive business managers of The DailyMaroon have failed to reap theirBachelor’s. These are among thefacts which have come to light in anextensive survey of activities com¬pleted for publication this week.Aside from their expenditures forfraternities, clubs and athletics.University students dug deep intotheir pockets last year to the tune of$47,473.06 to keep activities alive.Approximately 1500 students felt itworthwhile enough to ally themselveswith 40 organizations, in other wordsa third of the undergraduate bodyplanned to devote a portion of itstime, money *or interest to thingsother than academic.200 Rise to TopBut of these 1500, the usual selectgroup of about 200 rose to the top torun the affairs of undergraduate life,to spend anywhere from 2 to 8 hoursdaily at their activity. These were the200 who achieved local fame, whoreaped the rewards of activity lifeand under the hierarchal-appointivesystem of the University were in aposition to control the fates of thosebelow them.

The meetingmarks the first attempt by the SocialCommittee to organize the entire cam¬pus into a social entity.The delegates and the Committeewill also consider making a semi-per¬manent body of the group to discussstudent social affairs. “It is for thisreason that all activities are urgedto have representatives present,” saidEckhouse.
