He has recently been doing re-,S''arch work there on marijuana,W(>cd used to make drugs, and he isjust finishing a report based on thisstudy. More than 100 young people rep¬resenting 300,000 of Chicago’s youthleft yesterday to attend the YouthPilgrimage for Jobs and Educationin Washington, D.C., March 10, 11,and 12. Bernard Wiener, presidentof the Communist Club, is the onlydelegate from the University.The Pilgrimage, sponsored annual¬ly by the American Youth Congress,a federated organization made up of38 national youth organizations, isutilized for lobbying purposes at thetime when bills relating to youth arebefore Congress.Objectives of the Pilgrimage thisyear are the extension of NY A, pas¬sage of the AY A, adoption of theSchwellenbach-Allen resolution (guar¬anteeing WPA jobs to all people notable to find employment in privateindu.stry), passage of the Harrison-Fletcher-Black bill (for more ade¬quate education and especially equal¬ization of educational opportunitiesfor Negroes), passage of the Nye-Kvale bill, passage of the BernardCCC bill (for civilian control of CCCcamps), and opposition to all indus¬trial mobilization plans. Placing the blame for the presentworld crisis on the failure of theAllies to adopt the program of Presi¬dent Wilson following the World War,William E. Dodd, former UnitedStates ambassador to Germany, gavea slow and leisurely schoolmaster’sdiscourse to his Moody Foundationaudience last night in Mandel Hall.Stopping frequently to ask, “Was¬n’t that a blunder?”, Dodd pointedout the tariff raises as a preventiveof economic prosperity and as a barto the payment of war debts; notedthe imposition of the Versailles treatyas a harsh, war-causing document;and scored Great Britain for her fail¬ure to stop the first move of thedictator states, that of Italy intoEthiopia.Dodd stated his belief that themajority of the people in the UnitedStates were in favor of Wilson’s 14-point proposal, but that the two-thirds majority necessary to ratifytreaties in the Senate blocked itsadoption. He further remarked thatthis ruling was barrier to the demo¬cratic process, because the represen¬tatives of the smaller states couldblock the will of a large majority.Rhineland BlunderThe result of this world blunderwas, to Dodd, seen in the Frenchoccupation of the Rhineland, the pooreconomic condition of Germany, andthe French failure to reduce its arma¬ments to Germany’s quota, all ofwhich served to turn the Germandemocracy into a menacing dictator¬ship. He also named Communistpropaganda as a contributing factor,however.The ex-ambassador criticized theAmerican practice of having million¬aire ambassadors. Large contribu¬tions to campaign funds, he said, wasno proper qualification for such aposition, and these men often knowlittle of what goes on in the countrythey are supposed to report on.McCarn Gives FinalLecture on MarriageLast in a series of five lectures onpreparation for marriage, Ruth Mc¬Carn will discuss “Successful Mar¬riage” at 4:15 this afternoon in theGraduate Education lecture room.Mrs. McCarn, who is a member of theNorthwestern University counsellingservice, spoke here three weeks agoon “Whom Should I Marry?”Thd Problems of Living Committeewhich includes representatives ofASU, Interclub Council, InterchurchStudent Council, and the Jewish Stu¬dent Foundation has sponsored theseries.

Prepare Report forBoard of GovernorsBy EMMETT DEADMANDr. Ernest B. Price, director of In¬ternational House, was put directlyunder fire yesterday as a group ofstudents within the house chargedhim with incompetence and discrim¬ination in the handling of foreignstudents. The attack upon Price hasnot assumed any formal shape as yetbut was contained in a report madeto the American group on Mondayevening. A detailed list of the com¬plaints against him is now being pre¬pared by an unofficial student commit¬tee.Apparently the outgrowth of a longseries of tensions, the break betweenPrice and certain members of theHouse was first brought into the openon Monday evening. The Americangroup was meeting to elect a delegateto the Student Council, but when aquorum failed to materialize, it wasvoted to suspend the by-laws for thepurpose of discussing matters perti¬nent to the welfare of the House. Af¬ter inquiring if Price was present atthe meeting as director or as a mem¬ber of the American group, PurnellBenson, the student chairman, askedthat all non-members of the groupleave the room. When this failed toproduce the desired effect. TuckerDean rose to move that the meetingbe restricted to members. This mo¬tion was seconded and carried unani¬mously.Price StaysThe foreign students left the room,but Price remained. Dean then statedthat he intended that his motion beinterpreted as excluding members ofthe House staff—a direct invitationfor Price to leave.Before he left the room, however,Price made the following statementsaccording to the report of the sec¬retary: First, that the action takenby the members of the Student Coun¬cil in going to Mr. Judson (chairmanof the Board of Governors), did notrepresent the action of the Americangroup. Second, it did not represent theaction of the Student Council. Third,that it was customary for the Direc¬tor to meet with the Student Counciland that the facts about to be laid be¬fore the group were false.Titus, Benson, ReportPalakunnather Titus, Indian Divi¬nity Student, and ex-president andvice-president of the Student Council,and Purnell Benson, also an ex-vice¬president of the Council then readtheir report which Ibrought out thefacts leading up to the events of thepast few days.The official version of the report isnot to be released until it has beenpresented to the Board of Governors,but the following facts are those con¬tained in it as reported by reliablewitnesses and checked by corrobora¬ting the stories of different students.On February 18, Price wrote to theStudent Council suggesting the forma¬tion of a Director-Student CouncilConference, designed to supplementthe regular meeting and work of theCouncil. The Council accepted thisproposition and voted to plan a meet¬ing for last Sunday to discuss thefourth item suggested by Price,(Continued on page 3)Conference DelegatesPublish ResolutionsBecause of small attendance at thefinal session of the Peace Conference,continued from last Friday, delegatesvoted not to consider any more reso¬lutions but rather to publish those asyet undebated and distribute themfor discussion, provided that suffi¬cient funds can be raised. The onlyresolutions taken up at the meetingwere one on collective security andone setting up the strike committee.At a meeting of the Peace Councilexecutive committee yesterday, fi¬nancial accounts fo the conferencewere presented.Page Two THE DAILY MAROON, WEDNESDAY, MARCH 9, 1938PLATFORM1.

A chastened president.Teapot Tempests-International House flare-ups are getting to be oneof the stronger of University traditions. Founded topromote international amity, it has been found thatcrossing an ocean does not remove individual quirksor national prejudices. The result is a very delicatesituation which periodically boils over. Five yeai'sago Director Dickson was ousted after a prolongedcontroversy, and currently an effort is under way tooust his successor, Ernest B. Price.With both sides on guard, and Director Price mut¬tering “libel,” it is impossible to discover w’ho is inthe right. Most probably both sides are at fault. Theimmediate occasion of the break is the refusal to re¬new the room scholarship of a German refugee, FranzJoseph by name, who had talked of appealing to theBoard of Governors against Price. Price explains theact as due to the fact that Joseph may not be a studentnext quarter, if he passes an approaching examination.But the students leading the insurrection, prominentmembers of the elected Student Council, insist thatthis is only an occasion for the release of long-accum¬ulated resentment againt the personality of DirectorPrice. They are very vague about any specfic objec¬tions to his policies, confining themselves to the state¬ment that he lacks the personal suavity and finesseneeded in managing the House. Rumor of more spe¬cific accusations runs the gamut from that of personaldishonesty to inadequate payment of the student help.The chief of their grievances seems to be that Pricehas not paid due and proper deference to the StudentCouncil in his administration of the House.In view of the fact that some of the leaders of theanti-Price movement are of a sort chronically at logger-heads with authority of all vaj’ieties, and in the ab¬sence of specific accusations, sympathy would be withthe administration. After all it is not the easiest thingin the world to preside over a powderhouse such asany international gathering, thickly sprinkled withexiles, is bound to be.Yet Price has lost his head in this situation. Thelegalistic objections of his statement published on thefront page goes far to support the residents’ accusa¬tions of personal ineptitude.His whole behavior in the situation has been cal¬culated to strengthen his enemies indeed. His grat¬uitous speech at the meeting Monday night, his in¬sistence that “I am still director,” his almost hystericalmanner when interviewed yesterday reveal a man se¬verely strained. Perhaps he is not equal to the sit¬uation raised by the strains between the various resi¬dents of International House, but it is more than anopen question whether any man would be so.Meanwhile international amity is being left to takecare of itself, while a few residents engage in a scalphunt, and the majority stand around and gossip aboutit all. QuestandInquestBY LAURA BERGQUISTThe strain of always trying to be the first with thenews becomes pretty gosh-awful at times with compe¬tition leering from Pulse, Rosenheim and Spring onall sides. Henceforth our policy is being reversed...no more of this wild-eyed searching for scoops...wewill now be the last with the news at all costs.The weekend is now receding into the dim past, thepost-mortems have all been hashed over, but Bergquistin her own trite way will relive the agony for you.First of all the Alpha Delts had a party, afterwhich Chuck Wilson, the great big swimmer, settleddown to hanging his pin on Margaret Argol.

They were all con¬structive programs for the achieve¬ment of that thing we need the most—peace. It seems to me that theeditorial article of March 1 struckthe heart of the problem when itstated, with a remarkable luciditythat “peace cannot be achieved shortof the entire reorganization of so¬ciety.”The whole problem of war andpeace seems to me that of sanity ormadness. It is a problem which canonly be solved by intelligence andsanity. The demand for grey-matterand sanity in a complex and changingcivilization like ours, increases in ageometrical ratio, w’hile the supply in¬creases only in arithmetical ratio.This lag may prove to be disastrous.Human beings should be inoculatedagainst stupidity and collective mad¬ness. Inoculations of grey-matter in¬to human beings is imminent. Todaywe need two things to solve problemslike war. First we need social intel¬ligence. It’s high time that we shouldintroduce some reason into our socialorganizations.The other thing we need is toler¬ance. We shall not have peace in asociety of nations where some peopleare infected by racial mysticism andnational solipsism. We shall havepeace when we shall recognize Manas the Alpha and Omega of our so¬ciety. The triumph of a peaceful andtolerant society depends on the recog¬nition of the innate value of humanbeings, regardless of race, nationality Fraternities-(Continued from page 1)Zeta Beta Tau — President, LewisHamity; Vice-president, James Gold¬smith; Secretary, Harry Levi; Treas¬urer, Saul Weisman; Steward, CharlesStern, Assistant Treasurer, IrvinRosen.Kappa Sigma — President, BurtMoyer; Vice-president, Robert Moyer;Second Vice-president, Davis Pratt;Secretary, Elton Ham; Treasurer,Leonard Hoffman.Delta Kappa Epsilon — President,Art Goes; Secretary, Steve Woods;Corresponding secretary, Paul Tatge;Treasurer, Harold La Belle; Steward.Cliff Gramer; Social Chairman, LouisMiller; Rushing Chairman, ClarenceSills.Phi Delta Theta — President, Rich¬ard Ferguson; Vice-president, RobertBigelow; Secretary, Gorden Murry;Treasurer, Clyde Croft; Steward,David Tinker.Delta Upsilon — President, FletcherTaylor; Vice-president, Robert Jones;Treasurer, Robert Drury; Secretary,Edward Gustafson; Steward, RichardHood.Sigma Chi — President, DeanLinger; Vice-president, John Young;Treasurer, John Culp; Secretary,George Fogle; Corresponding secre¬tary, Alfred Falsem; Historian, LorinKing.Phi Beta Delta — President, Leon¬ard Graff; Vice-president, Jerome Kat-zen; Tx’easurer, Bernard Sloan; Stew¬ard, David Levitan; Secretary, Bert-rum Warshaw; Marshall, ArthurPrimack.and opinions.George B.

Organist PlaysSunday in SecondOf Concert SeriesRenaissance Society Spon¬sors Germani, ItalianArtist.Fernando Germani, brilliant youngRoman organist, will present a con¬cert Sunday at 3:30 in Mandel hall,playing the Hammond electric organ.The concert, under the auspices of theRenaissance Society, is the secondsponsored by this organization thisquarter, the first having featuredSerge Prokofieff, eminent Russianpianist and composer.The program Germani will play, asreleased yesterday by Mrs. Eleanor C.Morse, executive .secretary of theRenaissance Society, is as follows:Vivaldi’s Concerto in D Minor, inthree movements—Allegro, Adagio,and Presto; Corelli’s Sarabande; NoelX, by Daquin; Three Choral Preludesof Bach, and Bach’s Toccata andFugue in D Minor. After the inter¬mission, Germani will play Widor’sToccata from the Fifth Symphony;an anonymous aria; Gigiie, by Bossi;Spanish Song, by Torres; the delicate“Girl with the Flaxen Hair,” of De¬bussy; and Manari’s “Etude de Con¬cert.”Leading MusicianGermani, not yet 30, is hailed asone of the leading musicians of Eu¬rope. He began his career at an earlyage, for when he was three years oldhe was taken in hand, at the St.Cecilia Academy in Rome, by SignarBajardi, who was so fa.scinated by thechild’s interest in music that he de¬cided to teach him personally.Among Germani’s other teacherswere Manari, who taught him organ,and who dedicated to him the "Etudede Concert,” which Germani is play¬ing Sunday; and Ottorino Respighi,who taught him composition. As astudent, Germani was so accomplishedin piano, composition, and organ, thatit was not until he was 20 that hechose the organ as his special instru¬ment.Tickets for Sunday’s concert, priceilfrom 50 cents to $1.50, are on sale atthe University Information Office andin the Renaissance Society Office, 205Wieboldt hall.Streams is found only in dam])placesexcept in the desertwhich is dry.Streams is full of spla.sheswhich can be seenwhen rocks is thrown in.If I was goin’ to be a stream,I’d rather be a puddle,Wouldn’t you?Vol 38 MARCH 9, 19^8 No. 80^ailyFOUNDED IN 1901MEMBER ASSOCIATED COLLEGIATEPRESSThe Daily Maroon ia the official studentnewspaper of the University of ChicaKo,published morninKs except Saturday, Sun¬day, and Monday during the Autumn,Winter and Spring quarters by The DailyMaroon Company, 683J University avenue.Telephones: Local 357, and Hyde Park9221 and 9222.After 6 :30 phone in stories to mir print¬ers, The Chief Printing company, 1920Monterey Ave. Telephone Cedarcrest 8311.The University of Chicago assumes noresponsibility for any statements appear¬ing in The Daily Maroon, or for any con¬tract entered into by The Daily Maroon.The Daily Maroon expressly reservesthe rights of publication of any materialappearing in this paper.

HisFalstaff, too, is undiluted Shakespeare,acted with enough verve to bring thecharacter to vivid life, and playedwith a masterly consideration for thesubtle comedy values. He siilutters,roars, prevaricates, and jests in themost rollicking Elizabethan manner,embodying in his fat form and spark¬ling eyes Falstaff’s practical, earthymaterialism and indomitable wit.• ♦ ♦To the boisterous tavern and road.scenes, this production adds the in¬comparable recruiting scene from“Henry IV’, Part 2,” which give Mr.Evans’ characterization a wider scope,and introduced two more fine comiccharacters, Shallow and Silence.“Henry IV’” is by no means thesumptuous production that “RichardII” is, nor is the more serious politicalaspect here presented with such grip¬ping power. This is due partly to thevery nature of the play, whose appealto modern audiences is overwhelming¬ly through the comic scenes, andpartly to the fact that the actors havenot, as a whole, yet become perfectlyidentified with their roles. Outstand¬ing in this sphere of the play is Wes¬ley Addy’s enactment of Hotspur, es¬pecially in the charming .scenes withhis wife Kate, where he all but over¬shoots his mark and wins so much ofthe audience’s sympathy that his fallassumes almost tragic proportions,and is not, as was undoubtedly the in¬tention of the original, overshadow'edby the victory of P^ngland over therebels.Kimbark Theatre6240 KIMBARK AVENUETODAYMARCH 8 - 9BRET HARTE'S"LUCK OF ROARING CAMP"—PLUS—FRED STONE IN"HIDEAWAY"1miiimTHE DAILY MAROON, WEDNESDAY, MARCH 9, 1938 Page ThretScholarship Withdrawal RaisesProtests, But Not Real IssueQ.

The workwas taken up at the conclusion ofexcavations in Fulton county, resultsof which were included in “Redi.scov-ering Illinois,” co-authored by Fay-Cooper Cole, chairman of the depart¬ment of Anthropology, and ThorneI'euel, director of the Illinois StateMu.seum.Skeletal remains from Kincaid aregenerally in poor condition, sincewater from periodic floods has proveddeleterious to the bones, but the de¬partment has brought back to theUniversity a number of good potteryand other specimens.Botanical material found has beenshipped to the University of Michi¬gan where botanist.s are analyzing it (Continued from page 1)namely “The Machinery of Interna¬tional House.” Price answered theCouncil, stating that their proposalwas unsatisfactory and that the firstitem he suggested, “The Ideology ofInternational House,” should be thetopic of discussion.Withdraw ScholarshipAt this point several members ofthe Executive Committee decided toapproach the Board of Governors.Among them was Franz Joseph, vice-president of the Council and a Ger-man-Jewish refugee. The next dayJoseph’s room-scholarship was with¬drawn. It was this that led to thereading of the report and the filingof additional protests with Judson.When asked about the withdrawalof this scholarship yesterday. Pricereplied that it had been necessary torefuse Joseph an extension becau.sehe was getting his law degree at thisWinter’s convocation and was nolonger a student and therefore noteligible for aid.This part of the report was givenby Purnell Benson, and a second sec¬tion was then given by Titus inwhich he asserted although the lossof the room scholarship was the im¬mediate issue, it reflected the gener¬ally un.satisfactory conditions prevail¬ing in the House. The group thenproceeded to go on record as backingBenson’s and Titus’ reports. The votewas 53 in favor of doing so, noneagainst, with 2 not voting. This w'asonly the action of the Americangroup, and not the Student Council,it is to be ob.served, but the unanimityof the opinion was reflected in thegenerality of the gossip current in thehalls of the House yesterday.In an adjoining column will befound a statement prepared for theMaroon by Dr. Price as the officialviewpoint of the administration ofthe House on the affair. Judson, thechairman of the Board of Governors,is out of town until Thursday, so theattitude of this body cannot be deter¬mined until then.Price Answers QuestionsIn an interview late yesterday af¬ternoon, Price replied directly to .sev¬eral questions put to him regardingthe alleged incidents which had beenreported by various members of theHouse. The questions and his answersfollow, ,to ascertain any climatic changeswhich may have taken place in thelast several hundred years in South¬ern Illinois.Dendrochronologists, under the di¬rection of Dr. Florence Hawley, are.studying the timbers which often ac¬company skeletons and pottery in vil¬lage site.s, in order to determine, byfinding the ages of the trees fromwhich the wood comes, the period ofthe other material unearthed.Kenwood GardenLunch5511 KENWOOD AVE.PHONE PLAZA 1530—HOME cooking-club BREAKFAST10c • 15c • 20c - 25cLUNCHEON and DINNERS25c • 30c - 35c • 40cALL DINNERS INCLUDESOUP—SALAD—POTATOESVEGETABLE—DESSERTCOFFEE—TEA—MILK10 PER CENT DISCOUNTON $2 MEAL TICKETSSUNDAY DINNERS 40cGIVE US A TRIAL A. It cannot be until he meets therequirements of being a registeredstudent. I made the concession of al¬lowing him to stay on as a transientuntil he could make an adjustmentelsewhere. This is the limit of mydiscretionary power.Q. Did Benson and Titus have theright to go to Judson?A. They had the right as individualmembers of the House, but there isno record of the Council’s or any othergroup’s delegating them to do so.They have had neither the couragenor the backbone to make any chargesdirectly to me and until they do so, Icannot officially recognize rumors asreal complaints.Q. It is asserted by Titus that thereal reason for the action is yourpersonal incompetence as reflected inthe general discontent within theHouse. What comment do you wishto make on this?A. Out of the approximately 100foreign students now living in Inter-j national House, I have personally seenand talked over personal problemswith nearly every one. W'hen we giveaid to an individual, out of respectfor the feelings of that individual, wekeep the matters personal and con¬fidential. But I may say that nearlyevery foreign student in this househas received through me as its di¬rector not only personal advice on avariety of subjects but also financialassistance. No bona fide foreign stu¬dent of good character and scholar¬ship has ever yet been denied aid.”There is a tentative meeting of theStudent Council set for today whenI the formal report to be presented toDr. Judson and to be released to allmembers of the House will be dis¬cussed.The conflict between the studentsand Price will undoubtedly continue,as the two candidates for president ofthe Student Council to replace MajidKhaddurri are Benson and Titus, whohave been the leaders in the move¬ment to censure the Director.THE BEST TAILORINGCO.D.

The studentwill begin to read the Hsiao Chingdirectly, making use of a unique sys¬tem of explanatory notes in whichthe full definition of each characteris given each of the first five timesit occurs. At the fifth occurrence, the.student is given a card showing thecharacter.When multiple definitions are given,as is common, it is left to the studentto make his own interpretation. InChinese the same character is oftenused interchangeably as adjective, ad¬ verb, noun, or a preposition.Trace EtymologiesWith the first occurrence of eachcharacter, its pictographic evolutionand etymology is traced if possible.Special uses and historical referencesare also explained in brief notes. Al¬though definitions are at first givenin English, these will later be ren¬dered in Chinese.According to Creel, the text of theHsiao Ching provides an excellentintroduction to later classical litera¬ture, and includes only 450 differentcharacters, with a high incidence ofrepetition.The first volume of the contem¬plated series will include the HsiaoChing, with notes and collateral read¬ing exercises. It will be accompaniedby an introduction designed to ac¬quaint the beginner with the natureand history of the Chinese writingsystem.Dr. Creel is assisted by Richard C.Rudolph and Chang Tsung-ch’ien, re¬search associates in the project.MAKE THE WOMENBEAUTIFUL!GARDENIASORCHIDSCORSAGESBeach Flower Shop1549 Hyde Park Blvd.Fairfax 4200Hurry!

No actionpurporting to have been taken at thatmeeting is therefore valid, as repre¬senting the action of the StudentCouncil or its Executive Committee.I have not seen the minutes of ameeting of the Student Council re¬ported to have been held on March5, but it has been reported to me bymembers of the Council present atthat meeting that no action wastaken to accept a report reported tohave been made by two members ofthe Student Council concerning a callwhich they are said to have madeupon the President of the Board ofGovernors, in their capacity as in¬dividual members of the House, (nothaving received from the StudentCouncil or the Executive Committeeany authority to represent the Coun¬cil or the Executive Committee inmaking such a call). It has beenfurther reported to me that no action■was taken by the Council on the basisof this report nor were any membersof the Council authorized to take anyaction in pursuance thereof.The permission of the Director wasrequested and granted for the use ofthe Home Room on March 7 for thepurpose of holding an election to filla vacancy in the represtntation onthe Student Council of the AmericanGroup. The By-Laws of the Student Council provide that “when a nation¬al group consists of more than onehundred members, fifteen per centof the total membership of that groupshall constitute a quorum.” Of the421 members of the American Group,something less than fifty attendedand the Chairman announced thatthere was no quorum present.Roberts’ rules of order providethat “the only business that can betransacted in the absence of a quor¬um is to take measures to obtain aquorum, to fix the time at which toadjourn, and to adjourn, or to takea recess.” These rules also providethat “no motion is in order that con¬flicts with the .... By-Laws, and ifsuch a motion is adopted, even by aunanimous vote, it is null and void..A By-law providing for the suspen¬sion by general consent of an articleof the Constitution would be null andvoid...rules that protect absenteescannot be suspended informally bygeneral consent or formally by unani¬mous vote, as the absentees have notgiven their consent.” Therefore, thegroup meeting on March 7 was un¬able to transact any business in theabsence of a quorum, and its actionin voting to suspend the By-Laws forthe purposes of the meeting was nulland void; therefore, any action takenby that group other than to adjournhas no force as representing the Stu¬dent Council, its Executive Commit¬tee, the American Group, or Inter¬national House.Ernest B.

Amund¬sen looks much better than he did lastyear, with more speed and better con¬trol, but his improvement may be bal¬anced by Mastrofsky’s inability toget into shape until later in the sea¬son.Veteran CatcherArt Dean is the only veteran catch¬er on the squad, and he may have tofight to keep his post if Marty Leav-Make Hockey Official;Award Letters in ’39Official next year, Daniel Hoffer’shockey team, with a scrapping nucleusof 15 men, plans to give the Univer¬sity another winning team in a so-called “minor” sport.“But it isn’t a minor sport,” saidHoffer. “Rather, it w'ill be just whatthe players want to make it—de¬pending upon how hard they work.And hockey is no sissy game: atIllinois we played against their foot¬ball backfield.
