Fouryears ago the issue—Facts vs. Ideas—occupied a lofty theoretical plane.Today the problem is of much moreimmediate and vital importance. Inkeeping with the times, it is a ques¬tion affecting the masses—that of in¬adequate social life and widespreadpersonal maladjustments among stu¬dents.Of course the problem is not a newone, nor has it been overlooked inthe past by keen campus observers.Yet its emergence into general con¬sciousness came only last spring, asa result of a study of the number andvariety of psychopathic cases in thestudent body and the championingof the cause of the “forgotten stu¬dent" by Marie Berger at The DailyMaroon banquet.President Hutchins acknowledgesthe existence of the problem, butstates that it gives him no cause forconcern. With some justification, heapparently feels that his is theresponsibility for the intellectualhealth and progress of the Univer¬sity; he has the Deans of Students,the social advisors, the athletic de¬partment, and the medical staff towatch over the social, moral, physi¬cal, and psychological well-being ofthe students. To borrow the phrase ofanother president, "It’s not his baby."But whosesoever baby it may be,those authorities must deal with ahighly abnormal situation. There isa distinct possibility that this “ba¬by” may develop into a grotesquelittle creature with a huge cranium,spindly arms and legs, utterly devoidof ordinary impulses and feelings,and not knowing the warmth andpleasure of human contacts.* « *By facing the issue squarely, by(Continued on page S)With A’s quite noticeably broad¬ened and a very marked earnestnessof purpose, Chester Wilmot, Austra¬lian debater and student extrordinaireyesterday afternoon was trying tofind out from the Maroon’s editor thefundamental differences between theUniversity of Chicago and other uni¬versities and, incidentally, expressinga few of his own opinions.“Never,” he said, “have I seen aUniversity whose course of studyoffered half so much to the studentor was nearly so efficient in diveisi-fying a student’s interests as thesurvey courses which are offeredhere. This University is, so far as Iknow, unique in the presentation ofthis system, and I believe it is byfar the finest I have yet encountered.I shall certainly advocate its intro¬duction into the universities of mycountry.”Friend Develops PneumoniaWilmot left Austrialia a fewmonths ago with another student totravel through this country and thenEngland; his friend developed pneu¬monia in California and had to beleft behind, so Wilmot has been vis¬iting the leading western collegesGerman Club Opens ^Foreign Movie SeriesAs a preliminary to their regularmeeting this Friday, members of theDeutsche Gesellschaft will show twotravelogues of the cities of Bremenand Dresden at 4:15 in the Assemblyroom of the Graduate EducationBuilding. The films will be open tothe public.E. E. Freienmuth von Helms of thedepartment of German, who is spon¬sor of the club this year, stated thatthe club has planned to show similarGerman pictures throughout the year.After the films, the club will holdits regular meeting at Ida Noyeshall. Coffee will be served. Forman Tells ofFar East Crisisin InterviewPoints Out Difficulty ofInvolving Britain,France, or U. S.“If the deliberate machine gunningof the British ambassador and thekilling of five British soldiers did notcause Britain to declare war, it willtake a great deal to involve theUnited States, Great Britain orFrance in the Far Eastern conflict,”declared Harrison Forman, “March ofTime” cameraman, who has recentlyreturned from the hostilities in Shan¬ghai, in an interview after his lectureon “Technical Direction of HollywoodFilms” and the showing of his news¬reels of the Sino-Japanese war.Forman, who visited the ranks ofboth the Chinese and Japanese arm¬ies, had ample opportunity to com¬pare them. In his opinion “the Jap¬anese are well trained to fight, totake orders, and to carry them out,while the Chinese, though fighting fortheir homes and more fierce in theirattacks, aren’t well trained and have¬n’t the proper equipment.” Becauseof these deficiencies the Chinese arebeing defeated.United States in ChinaForman believes that the UnitedStates will not fight in China to pro-ect its foreign trade. He bases thisassumption on the fact that Amer¬ican business does not have tremen¬dous investments in China. In fact,the American capital involved is only250 million dollars which is mainly in¬vested in oil and public utilities.American business men in China,however, are hoping for support toprotect their interests in the Interna¬tional Settlement.The power of the Panchen Lama ininfluencing the outcome in the Eastis a little discussed matter, and For¬man revealed the circumstances sur¬rounding this important factor. Themain religion of Manchuria is Bud¬dhism. Its supreme head is the DalarLama whose immediate subordinate(Continued on page 2)and taking on their debating teamssingle handed. He says the westerncause of the subordination of “Umph”or pep and not enough earnestness”to suit him. This University, he says,has been a very welcome change be¬cause of the subordinationof “Umph”to a seriousness of purpose in moststudies and activities. He is prettysure he will like this campus betterthan any he’ll visit in the future,notwithstanding the fact that next onhis list of hosts is Harvard. He isafraid he will find that institution“perhaps a bit too conservative” andtraditionally quiescent.Australian Student UnionPresident of the Australian Stu¬dent Union (this organization hasnothing in common with the Ameri¬can one of the same title) whichmakes him virtually president of thesix leading Australian universities,he reports that one of the main prob-blems on the campuses of his coun¬try, as it is on this one, is the ques¬tion of social organization and theuniting of the various groups andtypes of people into a congenial,more ^r less closely knit, society.Mueller Lectures toBar Association TodayCharles J. Mueller, noted criminaltrial lawyer, will present the thirdlecture of the Bar Association’s se¬ries today at 3:30 when he will talkon “Practical Aspects of CriminalEvidence.”The lecture, to be held in LawSouth, is free to Bar Associationmembers, while 25 cents will becharged all non-members.The problem of introducing ballis¬tics, dictaphones, fingerprints, hand¬writing, and the third degree, intoevidence in a trial will be fully dis¬cussed by Mueller, Art Sachs, secre¬tary of the association said yester¬day. Opening its present season, theDramatic Association presented lastnight Victor Wolfson’s pleasantlyinane comedy, “Excursion,” at theReynolds club theatre. The play, un¬distinguished as a whole, gains asort of appeal by dint of an unusuallyeven and sensibly selected cast.Star of the production is againRobert Wagoner, who, as the unbe¬lievably sentimental captain of a Con¬ey Island excursion boat, while not assteadily confident in his technique ason many past occasions, does exhibitcharacteristically forceful and metic¬ulous powers of interpretation. It isalmost solely the salutary effect ofhis acting that steers the perform¬ance toward the convincing side. For“Excursion” disguises the ancientidea of presenting a cross-section ofdiverse human types under stressonly by the thin device of an excurs¬ion boat whose captain, on its lasttrip, decides to give his passengersa real treat and heads for an islandin the romantic regions of the Carib¬bean. All the traditional charactertypes are present and speak steroty-pical lines, with varying degrees ofeffectiveness. There are frequentstrongly reminiscent but theatricallytelling climaxes, best of which isEdith Hansen’s very professional fitof hysteria.Veterans StarAmong the well-defined groups ofparsonages, by far the most distinc¬tive is the disillusioned shop girl con-Hutchinson Talksto ConservativesProfessor William T. Hutchinsonlast night told the delegates to theconvention of the Conservative partyof the Political Union that they musttalk more and make themselves arti¬culate if they are to make their ideaseffective in the political arena.Tracing the course of conservativegroups down through American his¬tory, and pointing out that tradition¬ally they had been the majoritygroups who only needed to vote andnot to talk, Hutchinson pointed outthat since 1933 this situation had beenreversed. He defined a conservativeby using the etymological history ofthe word. “A conservative,” he said,“is one who seeks to conserve throughhistory those values which haveproved of benefit to society.”Carlson Also SpeaksAnton J. Carlson, professor ofPhysiology also spoke to the conven¬tion. He told of his life experiences,and called attention to what Swe¬den had been able to accomplishthrough the normal processes ofdemocratic government. Speaking forthe student body, Cy Rutherberg ex¬horted the delegates to get out andwork up a large conservative vote atthe election next Tuesday. He saidthey should combat what he called“the prevalent idea that there are on¬ly radicals on this campus.”Paul Henkel presided. The smallnumber present at the convention in¬dicated a present lack of organiza¬tion among the conservatives, but thedelegates were quite unanimous intheir belief next Tuesday will see alarge vote for their party.August Tyler Talkson China and WarAugust Tyler, young editor of the“Socialist Call,” will speak Friday at3:30 in Social Science 122 under theauspices of the Socialist Club (notthe Trotskyites). His subject is“China and the Next War.”Representatives of the two Social¬ist Clubs, meeting today with DeanLeon Smith, decided to differentiatethemselves as above for advertisingthe meeting Friday. They are toconsult their groups and meet withSmith again by Wednesday to deter¬mine the permanent names of thetwo organizations.After the split with the SocialistParty, the Trotskyite faction adoptedthe national title, “Socialist Party(left wing).” Nothing has been saidas to whether the proposed namingwill follow the national one or not. tingent headed by Adele Woodward,whose performance is one of earthyvitality. Mary Paul Rix, another ofthe group, manages some good actingin spite of her manifest concern withthe elementary problems of posture.Completing this group is MaxineRappaport, pert and vivacious.But sharing first rank acting hon¬ors with Wagoner, another D A fam¬iliar, Jean Russell, gives the part ofthe shipowner’s daughter with left¬ist tendencies a pulsing warmth andvibrancy. The only other distinguish¬ed member of the cast, Alice Meyer,presents the extremely rare phenom¬enon of an adult who can convincinglyimpersonate a child.The general impression is that theproduction gives hope of future playsin which last night’s scattered excel¬lences will be integrated into a moreimpressive whole, instead of provid¬ing D A’s season with a truly aus¬picious opening.Discuss Far East atJSF Meeting TodayThe Jewish Student Foundationwill turn to Far Eastern conditionswhen Dr. Walter Fischel addressesthe members on “International Situ¬ation in the Levant” tonight at 8 inIda Noyes library.Dr. Fischel is professor of OrientalStudies at the Hebrew University inJerusalem, and is considered an emi¬nent authority on Oriental politics.Also planned for this week is thesecond fireside of the year whichwill be held tomorrow evening in thereception room of the InternationalHouse. Judge Michael Feinberg ofthe Chicago Municipal Court will leada discussion of “Marriage and Di¬vorce.”As a large part of Judge Feinberg’swork has consisted of hearing divorcecases, this discussion promises to bean illuminating one.Both of the functions are open toeveryone interested. Refreshmentswill be served after the meetings.The first two introductory volumesare to be called “The Foundations ofthe Unity of Science.” They will con¬sist of 20 pamphlets each of whichwill be about 70 pages long and willdeal with one aspect of science, the20 covering in a broad manner theentire field. Each succeeding sectionof the Encyclopedia will also coverthe same field but in greater detail.Present plans for the second unit,which will be issued if the first issuccessful, call for six volumes.Neurath DirectorProfessors Morris and Carnap ofthe Philosophy department are asso¬ciate editors of the Encyclopedia, theDirector of which is Otto Neurath ofthe Mundaneum Institute in TheHague. Other members of the com¬mittee of organization are PhilippFrank, Prague; Joergen Joergenson,Copenhagen; and Louis Rougier,Cairo.Five University professors willcontribute monographs to the firsttwo volumes of the forthcoming In¬ternational Encyclopedia of UnifiedScience. They are professors RudolfCarnap, C. W. Moris, Louis Wirth,Manuel Andrade and Leonard Bloom¬field.The Encyclopedia as a whole is theoutgrowth of a long movement to¬ward the unification of science, andwas born in a series of InternationalCongresses held annually to furtherthis movement. Its purpose is to de¬velop a logic of science, and counter¬act the extreme specialization of thesciences.Stresses Logical StructureAccording to advance notices: “Itstask will not be to present the de¬tailed structure of the special sciencesbut rather to stress the logical struc¬ture of the special sciences consider¬ed in relation to one another. TheEncyclopedia will therefore be con¬cerned with the development of aunified scientific language . . . withquestions of scientific procedure, andwith the sense in which science formsa unified whole.” Series of PoliticalUnion ConventionsSplit in Party PreventsUnity Among Sectionsof Group.Ending a series of three conven¬tions the Radical wing of the PoliticalUnion will meet today at 3:30 in Kentauditorium in a campus-wide gather¬ing of Communists, Trotskyites, So¬cialists, and independent radicals.The convention, under the directionof Frank Meyer and Dick Lindheim,will follow much the same lines asthe first two conventions, that of theConservatives and that of the Liber¬als.A keynote speech will attempt todraw the Radicals together in broadand general terms. Then there will bea discussion of the Radical platformsby the different sections in the group.Lack United OutlookBecause of these factions withinthe Radical group, they will not beable to achieve a united outlook uponvarious problems as have the othertwo parties.However, they will in the var¬ious divisions, be able to take a muchmore definite stand on any questions,in view of their different platformswithin the Radical party itself.There will be an important meet¬ing of the organizing committee ofthe Political Union at 2:30 today inthe Daily Maroon oflBce. They willcomplete their final discussion up¬on the Union’s constitution, whichhas already been drawn up, andthey will also draw up the finaldetails of the Political Union elec¬tion to be held next Tuesday.Representation RegulatedThe Radicals in their seats in thePolitical Union will be limited to 20.Among themselves they have drawnup the following quotas for their bal¬lot which includes 16 Communists, 10left-wing Socialists, 5 Socialists, and10 independent Radicals.The next step in the Political Un¬ion’s development will be their firstbusiness meeting in which the execu¬tive committee will be selected.Neurath, Carnap and Morris willjointly write the first of the 20pamphlets, which will discuss “TheUnity of Science.” Morris contributesthe second monograph, on the“Theory of Signs,” and Carnap thethird, on “Mathematics and Logic.”Wirth of the University treats of the“Sociology of Science,” in the secondvolume, and two members of theLinguistics department, Bloomfieldand Andrade, discuss “General Lin¬guistics.”The introductory unit of the Ency¬clopedia will be published by the Uni¬versity Press probably next year, if250 advance subscriptions are sold.An order for 100 copies was recentlyreceived from a Japanese publisherand there seems little doubt that theminimum will be met.Award Maroon Prizeat Music SessionA compact but enthusiastic audi¬ence greeted Kay Kyser, his band,and Jo Andrews, tap dancer, yester¬day afternoon in Mandel hall at theModern Music session.Proceeds from the performance willbe used to establish a music scholar¬ship.During the show John Van deWater, junior member of Delta Kap¬pa Epsilon, was awarded grand prizein The Daily Maroon subscriptioncontest. He will fly to New York byTWA during the Christmas holidays,and stay for five days with all ex¬penses paid.Betty Kopper places second, withDon Seivermain third. Each will flyto New York and back with expensespaid by The Maroon.Faraday Benedict and Edward Berg¬man received albums of Kay Kyserrecords for Quadrengler and PiLambda Phi respectively, as rewardfor selling the largest amount of tick¬ets to the Modern Music Session.Australian Debater Praises SurveyCourses and Attitude of Students University Professors Contributeto Unified Science EncyclopediaPage Two THE DAILY MAROON, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 18, 1937PLATFORM1.

Reform of Blackfriors.Pulse FlareupWithin the last week the campus has wit¬nessed two instances of the collision of personsdevoted to ideas first, institutions a poor sec¬ond. The result has been the split of the ASUlast Friday and the split of the Board of Con¬trol of Pulse Tuesday night.Pulse started out as the brainchild of JohnMorris. He set out to establish a new thing incollege journalism, a newsmagazine that wouldprint the news behind the news, and incident¬ally w’ould prepare his w'ay for a job with Time.His significant assistants were Bud James andBob Speer, radicals and hot heads, brilliantwriters but poor reporters.Friction as to how’ stories should be writtenwas present from the start, Morris doing hisbest to restrain the impetuosity of his chiefassistants. Tuesday, heat grew' to a new' high,Morris threatened resignation if his version ofa story was not run, Speer, Beck and Eichen-baum took his challenge, James not being pres¬ent at the decision, and forced him out.What does this revolution mean for the fu¬ture of Pulse? The temperament of the re¬maining members is such that new's with aminimum of coloring is impossible. They areout to leave no sacred cow's on the campus andno toes unstepped on. This intention meansthat the original idea of impartial new's report¬ing has been abandoned; the new's section w'illbecome an essay section on the state of thecampus. It is easily foreseen that the sourcesof new's will largely dry up, since nobody wantsthe facts he supplies used in a tirade. Pulse wall,in other w'ords, become a frankly partisansheet.News is never neutral. There is a steadygradation from news story to expose, and PulseW'ill definitely go to the latter extreme fromnow' on.This is a lamentable prospect. A news¬magazine has a real function on the campus-It can report news more fully and in betterstyle than can a daily paper. It can conductsurveys and provide an outlet for local literarytalent as a paper cannot. It can reflect thewhole campus as a partisan sheet cannot. Itcan gain general support from the .students asas partisan sheet cannot.What is to be done? It is obvious that therupture is the result of strained tempers onboth sides. The Pulse boys had been up allnight for several nights before the presentbreak w’as brought about. The sensible thingto do is for both sides to swallow' their prideenough to take Morris back on the magazineand proceed to establish some clear method ofdetermining policy rather than asking unani¬mity. The pride is not w'orth the fall thatMorris’ departure will mean.

I alsofrown upon the methods by which hehas undertaken to answer his critics;he exhibits a deep-rooted intellectualsnobbery.It is clear from reading his edi¬torials that McNeill’s opposition tointercollegiate athletics is merely ameans to an end. The end is a Uni¬versity sponsored system of discus¬sion groups, which would seek to em¬brace the vast numbers of studentsuntouched by fraternities, clubs,activities, and political organizations.The means secures for him the finan¬cial wherewithal.McNeill has advanced only tworeasons in support of the abolition ofintercollegiate athletics. The first isthat the amount of money expendedon them by the University is out ofproportion to the number of studentsengaging in them. The second is thatthe amount of time and energy givenby the participants seriously inter¬feres with their real purpose in be¬ing at the University, which is to getan education.But what kind of arguments arethese? The former could equally wellapply to the amount of money spenton the elaborate equipment used inthe Physics department. The lattercould just as well be said about ev¬ery important extra-curricular activi¬ty. Neither statement constitutes avalid objection unless it also can beshown that the net effect of inter¬collegiate athletics on the welfare ofthe University, the student body as awhole, and the particular students in¬volved, is destructive rather thanconstructive.This McNeill has attempted to doby effectively answering three argu¬ments that have been raised so farin defense of intercollegiate athletics.These arc, namely, that such sportsare necessary to attract the propernumber and kind of students to theUniversity, that they are necessaryto preserve alumni support of theUniversity, and that they are neces¬sary to stimulate the development ofgreater intramural participation. Thislist does not include, however, whatI think is the strongest argument infavor of intercollegiate athletics.Considering the fact that the sea¬son in each sport lasts only one-thirdof the school year, and consideringthe flexibility of the University’ssystem of awarding academic credit,the physical development engenderedand the mental practice involved infacing the exigencies of competitionseem well worth the sacrifices of timeand energy made by the participantsthemselves. Considering the fact thatgate receipts probably come close tocovering expenditures on intercolle¬giate teams, and considering the cur¬rent deemphasis on football and othersports, intercollegiate athletics seemto detract little, if any, from thewelfare and reputation of the Uni¬versity as an educational institution.There remains only the third cate¬gory, the student body as a whole, tobo considered. Yet it is precisely thisgroup—the hundreds, or perhapsthousands, who regularly attend ath¬letic contests—whom McNeill hasignored and upon whom intercol¬legiate athletics have their most sti¬mulating and wholesome effect.For attendance at football, basket¬ball, and baseball games provides formany students one of their few emo¬tional outlets from the strain of longhours of intellectual endeavor. It isone of the few times when they cangive full rein to pent-up feelings,when they can stop playing the rolecf bi'ight, young guinea pigs, whenthey can identify themselves withsomething about the University thatis lively and spirited. Intercollegiateathletics are perhaps the only mani¬festation of “college life” which iscolorful without at the same time be¬ing utterly inane. Although the stu¬dent may be fully appreciative of theacademic standing of the University,his loyalty and support of its ath¬letic teams invariably carves for it adeeper and more lasting place in hisaffections.The opponents of intercollegiateathletics cannot answer by sayingthat students should find their emo¬tional outlet elsewhere. “Where?”we ask them. The thrill of being arooter at a college game may bevicarious, but it is nevertheless real.Would McNeill’s proposed system ofdiscussion groups supply the samethrill? Some students do indeed find their outlet in intraniural sports, inextra-curricular activities, or in so¬cial life, but it is a matter of practi¬cal demonstration that the vast major¬ity of undergraduates do not availthemselves of these opportunities ordo not find them sufficient. Intercol¬legiate athletics do not supply thewhole answer to the problem, butthey do provide one additional avenueof relief. Finally, we defy McNeill toreply to this by saying that all thosewho enjoy attending football gamesare not the right kind of students tohave at the University.No, let us not abandon intercol¬legiate athletics. There is already toomuch about the University that isdrab and colorless. There is too muchabout the University that makes onepicture that grotesque little creaturewhose only conspicious characteristicis his huge cranium. Intercollegiateathletics, applied in moderate doses,act as a valuable humanizing correc¬tive, preventing the spread of thispathological condition. {This is the first intelligent coun¬ter-argument we have encounteried.Football is a significant social focusfor the campus—1300 C-books havebeen sold Jto students and faculty—but can hardly remain so with losingteams. Surely the social relations ofa crowd at a game are less satisfac¬tory than those of intimate face toface talk, less suited to a university.—ed.)SPECIAL INTENSIVESHORTHANDfor COLLEGE UNDERGRADUATESStarts Octobor 1, Joauary 1.AprU 1.
