Police Detain ThreeStudents For AgitationThree University students weredetained by police yesterday after¬noon for distributing seditious liter¬ature near the stockyards. The twowomen, Margaret Rice and LorraineLewis, were released after being tak¬en to the 47th Street Police station,but Bernard Wiener, the third, washeld. He refused the proffered bail inorder to keep company with a com¬panion who refused to give his name,and was entei’ed in the police recordsas John Doe. This fourth was not astudent.The foursome were distributingpamphlets urging attendance at thestate convention of the IllinoisYoung Communist League to be heldin Ashland Auditorium Friday eve¬ning to welcome returned soldiersfrom Spain.Reached by telephone last nightboth Rice and Lewis refused to sayanything of their experience or com¬ment on the manner of their arrest.William V. Morgenstern, director ofPublic Relations, and Assistant Deanof Students Leon P. Smith, were allin a dither over the affair, butclaimed ignorance of details. •J Indicting the present systemcity government on four counts,George O. Fairweather, assistantBusiness Manager of the University,last night advocated the city mana¬ger plan in a debate with Judge OscarNelson of the Superior Court, at theTemple Sholom.Fairweather stated that the citycouncil is not non-partisan, that itis built on a party system and con¬trolled by politicians, that it is toolarge and unwieldy, and that eachalderman vies with the others as aoeputy-mayor for his own ward andtherefore does not fulfill his func¬tion as a legislator,Advocates CouncilHe advocated a council of from 9to 12 members elected at large, whowould select one of their number asmayor and chairman of the council.A qualified man, expert in city ad¬ministration, who could come fromany part of the country, would thenbe chosen as city manager by thecouncil.“The present mayor,” he said,“cannot hanAe his job, because heis forced to be chief executive, cere¬monial head, head of the council andof the party, and distributor of pat¬ronage.” He called the city managerplan a tool, and compared it to thekey to a house in that it is a me¬chanism to secure more efficient gov¬ernment.Basis of OppositionNelson based his opposition on hisexperiences as an alderman. He seesno reason to change the party sys¬tem. “An alderman acts as a deputymayor by demand of his ward,” heasserted. “Everyone has a chance tovote, and therefore the system isdemocratic.” Nelson admitted theweaknesses of the present form ofcity government, but prefers it tothe dictatorship which he feels isinherent in the city manager plan.THE DAILY MAROON, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 2. 1937Without repeater tubes, which amplify voicecurrents every 50 miles, telephony over verygreat distances w^ould hardly be possible.O.

But nothing has beendone about the situation, except to irritate themanagers with jejune criticisms.The real solution is the creation of a vig¬orous co-operative movement on the campus,a movement that would provide students withbooks and food at cost. The University claimsthat it does not make a profit from the Book¬store and the Commons. The only way stu¬dents can be sure is to set up their own co¬operative organizations.The single outstandingly successful co-op¬erative venture on the campus, the KimbarkCo-operative Eating club, has succeeded inserving meals to its members for $4.50 a week,asking some few hours of work from eachmember in addition. With good management,any group of 30 odd students should be ableto do likewise- The success of co-operativestores at other campuses has been such as topromise well for the future of such a store onthis campus. ,If we ask why co-operatives have not de¬veloped here as at other schools, the first ans¬wer is that management has been poor. Thisis what crippled the Ellis Eating Co-operativeduring the first year of its operation, and whathas made the Fraternity Co-operative Pur¬chasing Agency such a farce. But the failureis partially due to the lack of attachment tothe campus in more than formal classroomsense on the part of so many students. It isdesperately hard for the best of managementto make a successful co-operative among peoplewho have no cohesion.To establish a successful co-operative oii alarge scale an extensive campaign of educationis necessary to make clear to students the ad¬vantages of the co-operative set-up. Only faithin the idea of co-operation can tide a new-bornorganization over the troubles of the first fewmonths.But a book exchange could be establishednow. Students would be willing to turn in sec¬ond hand books and wait for payment untilsale had been made. Dean Smith has said thathe would permit a room to be u.sed for sucha purpo.se, and the cost of operation could hard¬ly fail to be equal to the deduction the book¬stores now make on second hand books.Groups that could carry through such a pro¬gram are not lacking on the campus. The mostlogical is the ASU with its wide membership-Such activity is certainly more valuable to themembers and to the campus than the presentsolicitation of funds for Spain it so strenuous¬ly engages in now.Vol. 38 DECEMBER 2, 1937 No. 36 QuestandInquest iBY LAURA BERGQUISTCody would rather philo.sophize, Schoen won’t stoopto it, McNeill doesn’t think it’s in keeping with Uni¬versity Tradition, but gossip will out.FRANKELKOPPERFirst on the list of weekend nitwits .chines BillFrankel, the Phi I>elt with a Reputation. Came Inter¬fraternity Ball, came William with his date BettyTracy. The evening was so beautiful, and Betty wasso nice that he decided to hang his pin. Franticallyhe searched for it. Suddenly he remembered that hehad lent it to pinless Hugh Campbell, who wanted tohang it on Betty Kopper, Tactfully he hinted to anamazed Kopper that she’d been wearing his pin allalong and could he borrow it for a few minutes? Kop¬per said yes graciously, Tracy said no. A little abashedbut still crafty he bided his time, asking her again . . .again . . . again, four times. But Betty remained coy,free, white and 19.PECANSTRACYThe scene shifts in the exciting drama to a trainreturning from Danville after Thanksgiving. A Mansat down next to Tracy, looked, and like Frankel wasconquered. He even confided with a hint of passionin his voice that he was a pecan grower from Ala¬bama . . suggested bashfully that Betty might be a niceMrs. Pecan Grower, just think what she could do forQuad teas.Feeling very desired, Tracy turned down the Sec¬ond Golden Opportunity but couldn’t resist the third.It was Frankel back again, with his own pin clutchedfirmly in his hand which made everybody happy exceptBetty Kopper, minus the badge of her success. ButDan Burton came to the cause, offered his pin . . ,Hughie dried Kopper’s tears . . . and Tracy is nownobly offering the Pecan Grower to all unattached clubsisters.BADGERFITZGERALDSecond sucker in the Hang-Your Pin week camjiaignwas Bob F'itzgerald who announced to the Deke broth¬ers with a beautiful smile on his face that for the sec¬ond time he’s found The Girl. It isn’t the one-from-his childhood-days, nor Faraday, but a co-ed from Wis¬consin by the name of Adell. And since it’s a goodpolicy to print a lot of names in the paper (they’llalways buy an issue) and even though Deadman thinksit’s all so childish, Rill Murphy also lost hardware toTroy Parker.FLOORHUTCHINSPeople who did not hang their pins were—Ithiel deSola Poole, Frank O’Hara and William McNeill. Peo¬ple who do not want their names in the column areRobert Hutchins and Leon P.

The program is hazy—the committee a bitbefuddled—but you can’t let the Betas run away withthat sort of thing, you know.All of which is interesting if true.It TakesALL KINDS OF PEOPLEThe boys at the house call him “Stinky Davis” and“Goon number 1.” Six feet tall, a high-pitched voice,a nose larger than the ordinary, and those colored shirtshis mother buys him. That is Davis Pratt.You will rind someone like him at every fraternityhouse. A fellow who, in the midst of the cliques,grudges, and jealousies that happen in the he.st offraternities, remains untouched. A fellow whom every¬body likfjs. Rut, the natural male reaction, derisiveterms.A member of Kappa Sigma, Dave follows in thefootsteps of his older brother, John Pratt, the youngsurrealist artist. However, Dave’s only exhibits sofar have been limited to the long Blackfriars’ banners,which hung between the Campus trees on the front ofthe fiat houses last spring.In addition, Dave was the guiding light in decora¬ting the Kappa Sig house for their “Christmas pm-ly”last May, and he, also, is in charge of the “HauntedHouse” open Campus party to be held this Saturdaynight.Becau.se he is too lazy to commute, Dave worksnights in a balloon factory, in order to pay for anancient Ford sedan. His only public appearance hasbeen in the “Mirror Chorus” of Blackfriars in hisfreshman year, his only vice is bow ties, and his maininterest is Chi Rho Betty Smith.

W. H. Johnson,Superintendent Board of Education:Inasmuch as there seems to bemuch confusion as to the exact na¬ture of your proposed plan for voca¬tional training, we believe that youmight wish to clarify the issue.Since you are a Ph. D. of thisUniversity, you will agree, we arecertain, that there is no better placefor unbiased di.scussion than theUniversity campus. To this end we and is now completing a more in¬tensive survey of 125 sub-commun¬ities.Several important and interestingfacts have been brought out. One-fourth of all cases admitted to thehospitals were suffering from schizo¬phrenia, or a condition of split per¬sonality characterized by illusionsand fantasies. On further investiga¬tion, it was also shown that casesfrom different areas (rooming house,first immigrant, etc.) suffered fromdistinctly separate types of the dis¬ease.Schizophrenic YouthsDunham, in one of his studies,found that schizophrenic youths (thebreak-down generally occurs from 17to 25) were very seldom juvenile de¬linquents. Conscientious, sincere-minded persons, they lacked the abil¬ity to mix and form a part of agroup. As a result they had explodedinternally because they could not re¬lease themselves through externalcontacts.Alcoholic psycho.ses were foundlargely in rooming house and first;immigrant areas. General paralysis,'or its end stage, syphilis, occurs forthe most part in rooming-house and iother non-family regions. YELLO-X«]Wompanion SetsNo other Christmas present for $Sequals this value!

During the pastfour years he has lived with theTlingit Indians in Alaska and withthe Banyankole tribe in Africa.Sent by the department of Anthro¬pology to study economic conditions,Oberg lived with the Alaskan Indiansfor a year. He later used his findingsas the information for a thesis.Not content with studying only onetribe, Oberg paused in England for12 months to study under Malinowk-ski, world-famous anthropologist, be¬fore pushing on to the interior ofAfrica. Here he lived with nine otherwhite men from the British armyamong 280,000 Indians.English influence has been at workamong the tribe since the turn of thecentury and, according to Oberg, hasproduced some results. The people,however, are still backward in manyof their traits, notably, the livingconditions. Education, though, has ad¬vanced through the introduction ofmission schools.Cattle disease has been wiped out.One-fifth of the population has beenconverted to Christianity throughthe teachings of outsiders.Being an experienced big gamehunter, Mr. Oberg decided to takeadvantage of the abundant supply of animals in the district. Although it jtook him three months before he jbagged his first lion, he did not ex¬perience much difficulty in killingsix elephants. Accoi'ding to law hehad to stop at this number. Waterbuffalo were also popular targets ofthe bullets even though a buffalokilled one of Oberg’s natives.Notable among his findings wasthe fact that the tribe is divided in¬to two classes. The Bohema or cattlepeople, though outnumbered ten toone are the controlling factor andwere up to a short time ago the onlyones who could hold a position ofresponsibility.Lower Cla.ssesThe lower classes which might becompared to the serfs of the MiddleAges were agricultural people. Theyrestricted their diet to products ofthe soil while the Bohema ate onlymilk and meat which they obtainedfrom their cattle.Uganda is located on a plateauwith grassland predominant. Al¬though the climate was cool and com¬fortable, the white men were con¬siderably annoyed by the presence ofants and termites in their food,clothes and bed. However, there waslittle that could be done to changethe condition.At present Oberg is busy writingan account of his stay with theIndians.

W. McGillivray hasspent a lot of his time at the poolin Bartlett Gym clocking the hope¬ful splash artists. The tournamentwill be held December 9.So far, the leading fraternity teamis the Phi Kappa Sigs whose medleyrelay team has turned in the goodqualifying time of 1:33.8. It also hassuch individual stars as Wells, whohas turned in the unusual time of:19.8 in the 40 yard plunge, and hasanother potential scoring threat inBlonn who swam the 100 yard backstroke in the lowest qualifying timeto date, 1:25.1.Tully of Alpha Delta Phi has turn¬ed in the good intramural time of1:38.4 for the 100 yard breast strokeevent.Another remarkable :19.8 time "forthe 40 was turned in by Libby of thePsi U delegation. He was closelyfollowed by H under, an unattachedswimmer, with a time of :19.9. Be¬cause of the large number of entriesin this event, there will almost cer¬tainly be two heats which will in¬crease the stiffness of the competi¬tion.A scoring system of 5-4-3-2-1 forindividual events, and 10-8-6-4-2 forthe relays has been decided upon.Phi Kappa Sig’s chief rivals forthe IM swimming crown include thelast year’s champions, Phi DeltaTheta, the Psi Us, and the Pi Lams.So far, comparatively few timeshave been turned in, but as qualifi¬cation time draws to a close, moreambitious natators are expected tocrowd the pool in Bartlett. Individ¬uals may compete in three events, achange from last year’s rules so thatthe contest will be wide open, withindividual stars playing a greaterpart.According to Coach McGillivraylettermen, freshmen of varsity cali¬bre, and varsity candidates are in¬eligible for intramural swimming.Hold Fly CastingTournament; Invite |Students to JoinAll members of the University areinvited to participate in the game ofbait and fly tournament casting,which is now being sponsored by theIllinois Casting club in co-operationwith the Athletic department of theUniversity.No charge of any kind is demand¬ed and the members of the IllinoisCasting club have volunteered freeinstruction to anyone desiring aid.Such a sport as casting demandsthe utmost of skill and accuracy,and needless to say, has proved aninteresting hobby for men, women,and children.“The Illinois Ca.sting club willgladly conduct a tournament restrict¬ed to fishing tackle, provided enoughinterest is shown,” wrote Mr. NoelM.

How¬ever, many other aggressive playerswill furnish them hard competitionand will supply the Maroons withplenty of reserve strength when thegoing gets tough. Among these menare Harry Topping, an outstandingoffensive .sophomore, Jerry Jeremy, agood defensive guard, and HowardDurbin, and Ralph Richard.son, who.sesize makes them capable defensivemen.
