Without enteringthe maze of metaphysical argumentemployed by the president in formu¬lating his ideal, Ashin calls Hutchinsconception of the problem illusoryin its start, almost childlike in itsdi.^regard of actual relationships.President Hutchins would, it is said,revolutionize society by revolution¬izing the University of Chicago,abolish the curse of money by merelydiscrediting it, and let the "naturalcourse of events” remove the glaringinequalities in educational opportun¬ity.Analyze Detroit ElectionsOutstanding among the articles ofnational .scope is the report by Ber¬nard Brandchaft on “Detroit Elec¬tions”. On the scene during thebitter contest between Labor andCapitalist Detroit, Brandchaft con¬tributes a brilliantly written story ofwhat occurred, and what has beenUumed by labor therefrom.Also noteworthy is Paul Berg’s‘‘Japan over Shanghai” for carefulresearch. Beyond three cuts, purelyartistic work is confined to two poemsby Bob Wolf. Wolf’s work is heavilyburdened with imagery that is, to saythe most original.On the whole, however; Partisan is,for its type, exceptional in qualityand appearance.

To him it seemed orchestralin conception, although written forthe organ, and last spring he a-dapted it for full symphony orches¬tra. The University orchestra read itthrough and commented favorablyupon it, with the result that it willbe given its first public performanceFriday.Kohs, who plays tympani in theorchestra, pointed out yesterday thatthis score, unlike many other trans¬criptions of Bach, calls for no per¬cussion instrument but kettle-drums.Use of glockenspiel, triangle, snaredrum, tambourine, or castanets heconsiders unnecessarily garish andcontrary to the spirit of Bach.A chorale-prelude, he explained, isa piece for organ based upon a Luth¬eran chorale-tune, familiar to thechurch-goers of Reformation Ger¬many.Library FriendsElect Lewis asNew PresidentLloyd Lewis, sports editor anddramatic critic of the Daily News,was elected president of the Friendsof the Library of the University, M.Llewellyn Raney, director of Uni¬versity Libraries, announced yester¬day.

He said that meta¬physics was impractical, and that itcould not really teach the why ofthings as well as theology, whichhas a real contact with life.“Reason alone cannot avail,” saidthe former chairman of Yale’s edu¬cational policy committee. “It cancriticize but cannot create. It is in¬dispensable, but only in connectionwith a living faith.” |Revitalized TheologyBrown sees the unifying philosophyof the new university in a revitalizedtheology, universal in the range of its I interests and not based on any onecreed. The theology evolving as a re¬sult of the Oxford and Edinburghconferences of last summer wascited as an example of what mightbe accomplished. Dr. Brown waschairman of the Oxford conference,which represented every Protestant,Orthodox, and Anglican group in theworld.“‘The philosophy department is thelogical place for the start of thismovement,” said Brown, “but thepresent relationship is mainly a sys¬tematic ignoring of theology by phil¬osophy. Perhaps this explains theappalling lack of student interest inphilosophy today.”New UniversityInstead of merely studying • thehistory of past philosophies, the de¬partment in the new universitywould contain philosophically mindedmembers of every department. Sucha department would synthesize allthe factors making up the universityand would give at once a critical andconstructive philosophy, the theolo¬gian believes.

A chastened president.7. Reform of Blackfriors.Mutatis MutandisTime changes all things, even the Universi¬ty of Chicago campus. A short four years ago,the student body was a bubbling mass of en¬thusiasm for the new plan, for a revived foot¬ball team. Fraternity doings were all-impor¬tant. The radical movement escaped the seriousconsideration of more than a handful. The cam¬pus lacked the deadly seriousness and generalpessimism for society that sets the tone todaydespite a fringe of old line students perched inthe fastnesses of fraternities, or fresh with theenthusiasm of a high school career.All this is reflected in the impetuous, bril¬liant Maroon published by John Barden, nowgraduate student of Law. To read his paper isto step into another world. There was a strangedogmatism abroad. The Maroon accused theUniversity of going back on the principles ofthe New Plan and introducing grade huntingagain when it changed the grading systemfrom the bald satisfactory and unsatisfactoryto the present letter system. The Maroon free¬ly predicted a championship football team with¬in a few years in that, the first year of Ber-wanger. The broadcast of classroom lecturescame in for much attention in the Maroon col¬umns, the doings of fraternities for even more.The activity of the two radical organizations ofthe day, the National Student League and theStudent League for Industrial Democracy, oc¬cupied an odd sixty words at the bottom of thecolumn, nothing more.But Barden is remembered not for this, butfor the incredible squall he stirred up over edu¬cational theory, a controversy which lasted twoquarters, first made the disagreement betweenPresident Hutchins and the faculty open, andgot the major portion of the campus talkingabout the philosophy of education as it hadnever talked before. His editorials became So-cratic dialogues concerning the proper ends andmeans of education- And people read them,usually misunderstood them, but got excitedabout them.Since the zest of this first dipping intothings philosophic has worn off, the studentawareness of the state of the world has dampedthe enthusiasm of the first year of the NewPlan. Today’s students are both sadder andwiser men. World events and a changed back¬ground of the majority of students account forthe change. But the old days always lookbright in retrospect.Vol. 38 DECEMBER 3, 1937 No. 37®l|c ^aily jHarooiiFOUNDED IN 1901Member Associated Collegiate PressThe Daily Maroon is the official student newspaper of the Uni¬versity of ChicaKO, published mornings except Saturday, Sunday,aad Monday during the Autumn, Winter, and Spring quarters byThe Daily Maroon Company, 5831 University avenue.

Added to this sacrilege isthe fact that Cody can’t register since he has beenwith us four years and as yet failed to fulfill his col-• lege requirements.The real reasons for his forced abdication lie deeperthan these, however. As far as his Maroon column isconcerned Cody is an unregistered student writing fora school newspaper, as the Dean’s office accu.«cs. Buthe is also a paid columnist. The .sentimental writerof Curds and Whey is an employee of the paper evenas Tailor Tom. His position on the Maroon thereforeis impregnable. But other pressures have been put onCody via Dean Smith who is acting as a front for DeanWorks. A short time ago Cody and Mr. Works attend¬ed a Chi Psi alumni banquet. Cody rose to speak onthe position of activities at the University, said thatfraternities were on the skids, that organizations likethe Chapel Union w’ere the coming thing, untactfulremarks to make to fraternity alumni ... or to DeanWorks. Though Pfanstiehl had announced that hereally wasn’t a registered student, Works huffily re¬buked both Chi Psi and Cody (almost synonomous any¬way) for allowing an unregistered student to representstudent opinion, opinion which w’as disturbing to saythe least.The young Communists also envied Cody’s position,“If the Maroon can use an outsider to express opinionsin its columns why can’t our non-college chums playtoo?’’ was the theme of their complaint. Then therewere a few professors who had become unea.^y aboutthe fame of Cody . . . seen a bad example for the young’uns in this columnist who.had-failed-to-pass-exams en¬joying campus prestige.• * *And so, though he might have battled for his rightson a technicality, Cody has decided to gracefully re¬sign from the scene of conflict. He arrived in the officeye.sterday looking utterly forlorn, A look of specula¬tion was in his eye—should he take another exam, grad¬uate from the college, return to activities? Or hauntDaily News offices for a newspaper job? The look inhis eye said that he might hop off for Timbuctoo.To his successors, whoever they may be (wouldYOU like to write a column?) he offers some .«ageadvice, garnered throughout his many years of column-ing. For though Cody is sunny and idealistic he isalso canny. “Avoid people who are always seeking freepublicity,’’ was his general run of thought “who arealways sidling up to you with the question ‘did youhear what happened to me and my gang?’ Let yourconscience be your guide . . one line of print can doa lot of damage to reputations and feelings . . . andkeep your stuff above the dirt line . . ”BITTYNOTICESAnd so we’re trying to be very noble and abovescandal today. We won’t mention that the Kappa Sigshave been languishing “For just a little, bitty notice’’about their dance on Saturday night . . Or that thefreshmen, though a bit more bashful, stomped into theoffice, hemmed, hawed, broadly hinted about a pluggerfor their shindig on the 10th. Some people have evenhelpfully suggested that a list be run of People WhoXVant Fraternity Pins but lack of space prevents listingof all names.However, let it be known that Virginia Johnsonwanted one, got it from Bob Jorenson. Betty Franksmanaged to shenangle another from Kappa Sigma,Newell Reynolds. Herb I.arson still holds out on histo the sorrow’ of Janie Anderson and Bill McNeill stillremains single, according to our day by day reports.Perhaps Jim Anderson had similar thoughts whenhe woke up from a Bi Sci lecture (replete with lanternslides) to .see a hairy ape leering at him from thescreen . . , “Where am I,’’ he bellowed. “Who is she?’’i One other incident merits attention . . . buxom BettyHurwiche, and Marion Rappaport went apart¬ment hunting last week. A deal for a cozy spot wasjust completed, the landlord beaming, till Betty re-i marked gaily that She was a Student from the Univer¬sity of Chicago. Said the ind’gnant landlord . . “Youcannot rent my apartment . , students from the Uni-j versity are Bums . . . Deadbeats . , . and besides They. Diink.’’ We may rank .second in the country but . . .I MAROONI COLORj This final item is the inspiration of Ned P’ritz.I ascinated by and perhaps envious of Mr. AstronomerI Bartky’s imitation of E.squire, he announced that yes¬terday Bartky arrived in class wearing a natty blueI suit, a chic powder blue shirt, a handsome grey and, black tie, and for accessories, a liberal sprinkling ofcolored chalk. Especially to please the Daily Maroon,j the professor on Tuesday donned maroon shirt, tie,, handkerchief, complimented it with a i-well brown suit.I What the future holds in .store, remains yet to be seen.

He would removeintercollegiate athletics, the influenceof which is largely corrective. Hewould substitute a aeries of informaldiscussion groups, in which activitywould be chiefly intellectual. Hewould make of us all queer, stifled■ walking intellects.”Now I wish to suggest a remedywhich is intended to strike at theroot of the difficulties. It not onlyposes more serious financial prob¬lems, but it involves a reversal ofboth administrative policy and thepresent developmental trend in thestudent community. It is simply ane.xtension of the club and fraternity-systems to include a large majorityf the undergraduate body.* • *Following in part the example of.Northwestern University, the Uni¬versity could take over existing fra¬ternity hou.ses and thus make possi¬ble the economies of -combined opera¬tion and expert management. Fra¬ternal groups could then pay theUniversity reasonable rental andmeal charges, or the individual mem¬bers could pay fees comparable totho.se now charged by the variousflormitories. Following the exampleof Duke University, the Universitycould assign quarters in the men’sand women’s dormitories to existingj.nd new clubs and to new fraterni¬ties which could be organized. Citym'^nbers could pay for meals takenat the University plus a nominal feefor u.se of the facilities of the houses<^r dormitories. Initiation fees couldbe abolished and relations with na¬tional organizations adjusted so thatpayments to them might be mater¬ially reduced. Re.strictions on fresh¬man membership and residence infraternity quarters could be removed.• « «Imagine a campus that is even 75percent organized. All-campus socialevents would no longer be a prob¬lem. The intramural program wouldno longer be a pi*oblem. Formationof such an activitiy as the PdliticalUnion, or the holding of inter-groupintellectual discussions and open for¬ums, would no longer be a problem.Participation of largo numbers ofstudents in every phase of Universityactivity would be virtually assuredthrough their membership in frater¬nities and clubs.The University would no longerseem drab, colorless, and impersonal.No longer would psychological malad¬justments among students be an im¬portant problem. Achievement of anintegrated social system would re¬new the vitality of undergraduatelife. Visions of the grotesque littlemonster with the huge cranium, thatqueer, stifled “walking intellect,”would finally be laid to rest.THE NEWSTUDENTDIRECTORYCONTAININGNamesClattiflcalionUniversity AddressesPhone NumbersHome AdressesFraternity orClub Aiiiliationsof All Students.35cFREE WITH YOUR SUBSCRIPTIONTO THE1938 Cap and GownOn sale at the Cap & Gown office.Toilor Tom.

I Select Freshmen,Sophomores forPublicity BoardThere will be a meeting of allfreshmen and sophomores interestedin obtaining positions on the StudentPublicity Board Tuesday at 2:30 inCobb 110, Harry Snodgress, chair¬man, announced last night.The organization, known last yearas the “Leaders of ’41,” wants “menand women with ideas and ingenuityfor obtaining outstanding high schoolseniors for next year’s freshmanclass,” according to a statementmade by Snodgress. The purpose ofthe meeting Tuesday is to outline the aims of the group for the comingyear, and all those interested will beinterviewed on the following Wed¬nesday.Last year the Student PublicityBoard, under the leadership of un¬dergraduate Ed Bell and graduateKeith Parsons, contributed a greatdeal toward obtaining the presentfreshman class.However, Parsons is not on theBoard this year, due partly to a rul¬ing of the North Central Associationthat there can be no salaried publi¬city heads in any school in this sec¬tion. Snodgress pointed out that thisruling places the responsibility forsecuring a good freshman class fornext year on the shoulders of theundergraduate student body, and atthe same time adds great importanceto an already flourishing activity.

SHARPLESS HICKMANThat remark of Mr. Gary CooperDeeds—to the effect that if operadidn’t pay, why not put on some¬thing that did—has yet to becomemore than a sneering fable to hardheaded managers who consider theirseason a success if in the course ofseven weeks they have lost no morethan $50,000. Well, down at theCivic Opera House the sun is shin¬ing through the fog and it evenseems that $25,000 loss is possiblethis year—which has publicist Fierocheering so much that he is positive¬ly stingy w’ith his passes—and thatmeans any opera is a success!* * *The line-up for the last two weeksshows that Paul Longone is not re¬laxing—and certainly that line atthe box office isn’t either. High¬lights will be tonight’s “Die Walk-ure” with Flagstad, Melchior, Hoff¬man (who is simply mignificent asWotan), List and Traubel; Monday’s“Der Rosenkavalier” with the incom¬parable Lotte Lehmann supported byEmmanuel List as the laughableBaron Ocha; a repeat (on Dec. 13) ofthe overwhelming Melchior-Flagstad“Tristan und Isold”, and a Dec. 11th“Lohengrin” with Rethberg and La-holm, the new Swedish Wagneriantenor.♦ ♦ ♦Those who heard Wednesday’s“Tristan” know now why New York¬ers have raved for two years overFlagstad. The only word for her per¬formance is godlike. The effortlesssoaring quality of her singing in themost difficult of soprano roles com¬plements the heroic nobility of hercharacterization. Emotional thoughher dramatic delineation is, it ismore than compensated by the almostchilling ecstasy of her vocal perform¬ance. To say that she, single-handedhas made Wagner the most popularopera composer of our day is to payher a tribute never before awarded toany single singer’s efforts. Those whodecry the appalling lack of stagetechnique and poor acting on theopera stage have never sat and for¬gotten stage and hall and self as dothose who, under Mme. Flagstad’sunutterable spell, are swept away toa land that seldom exists other thanin the soul. Today on theQuadranglesFRIDAYMEETINGS“Over A-Hundred” Bowling Club.Ida Noyes at 12.Delta Sigma Pi.
