Z-149 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 16, 1939 Price Three CentsCommittee TakesOver Orientation February Issue Political Unionoj False Is ^Good Reading Ulection, htraw HoldsPoUNew Board Assumes Du¬ties Formerly Held byFour Groups.Orientation of freshman and trans¬fer students is undergoing an import¬ant change. An Orientation Commit¬tee will take over the direction of thework which has previously been di¬vided among the Federation of Uni¬versity Women, the Student PublicityBoard, the Transfer Committee, andthe Men’s Orientation Committee, Itis hoped that this centralization ofauthority will do away with duplica¬tion and confusion which has resultedfrom the activities of the four groups.Agitation for the change wasstarted by the Student Social Com-mitee last fall when many freshmenand transfer students were not con¬tacted and were, therefore, left out ofFreshman Week activities.New FunctionsUnder ihe new plan, the Orienta¬tion Committee, which will be madeup of representatives of the fourgroup.s, will supervise the program,will take charge of Scholarship Dayin the Spring quarter, and will inter¬view prospective scholarship winners.It is expected that the Women’s Fed-eiation. the Men’s Orientation group,and the Student Publicity Board willcontinue as they are, but will be sub¬ject to the plans of the central com¬mittee. Transfer students’ programwill be divided between the men’s andwomen’s committees. An effort is be¬ing made to put the plan into actionby the Spring quarter.Commenting on the proposedchange, Mrs. Harvey Carr, social di¬rector of the University, asserted:"This is a forward step in coordinat¬ing what has been a loose organiza¬tion, .Amalgamation will simplify theproblem. Although each of the groupshas done its job well, greater effi¬ciency can be obtained through integ-lation.”.According to Persis-Jane Peeples,head of the Federation, “the Federa¬tion is in favor of the change so longas it can retain its present systemand organization.’’Pi Lams OfferRoom, Boardto RefugeeDonation Raises FirstW€ek*s Drive Total to$3115.l‘i Lambda Phi yesterday becamethe third fraternity to lend a handtowards shoving the Refugee Aid andWar Relief drive over the top. Attheir chapter meeting, the Pi Lams,headed by Ed Bergman, businessmanager of the Maroon, pledgedroom and board for a refugee fornext year. They also pledged $G0 incash.Their donation, which was worth$o(i(» to the Refugee Aid Committee,raised to $.3415 the amount raised bythe Drive in the first week of themove to raise $10,000. With until theend of the quarter to go, and withmost of the organizations as yet un¬touched, with faculty, fraternities,dormitories, clubs, graduate clubs,and other organizations yet to report,the Drive leaders are looking success¬ful conclusions to the campaign witha fair degree of hope.When over 500 jitterbugs attendedthe Swing Saga in Mandel Hall, yes¬terday, the Drive continued its worktowards the $10,000.Interclub MeetingCharles E. Merriam, chairman ofthe Political Science department,James L. Adams, professor of thePhilosophy and Psychology of Re¬ligion, and Arthur E. Holt, professorof Social Ethics will discuss “Protes¬tantism, Democracy and the Dicta¬tors.’’ The discussion sponsored by theInterchurch Council will take place at9‘30 in Lounge A of the ReynoldsClub. L Roselli Offers$1000 for ProofHe’s a FascistOne thousand dollars have beendeposited at International House byBruno Roselli, to be paid to any Uni¬versity student or faculty memberwho can prove that Roselli is, or everwas, a member of the Fascist Party.Roselli attempted to lecture on “Fas¬cist Italy and World Peace’’ at Inter¬national House on January 20, wasmet by student picket lines, audienceheckling and rowdyism, and accusa¬tions of being a Fascist.In a letter to The Daily MaroonRoselli enclosed a copy of a lettersent to Dr. Ernest B. Price, Directorof International House in which hesays, “I was accused both inside andoutside International House, by plac¬ard and by word of mouth, of thecrime of Fascism. In fact, I was notonly accused of it, I was convicted,without being given a hearing.Challenges Accusers“As soon as I was given an oppor¬tunity to speak, I said that I wouldgladly pay one thousand dollars toanyone w’ho could prove that I am,or that I ever was, a member of theFascist Party.“You will find enclosed herewithmy certified check for $1000 drawn tothe order of International House. Itspotential beneficiary need not be amember thereof; anyone is welcometo submit proof, within one month.’’According to Roselli, Dr. Price’s By CHARLES O’DONNELLRising, like the mythical Egyptianfire bird, from the ashes of mediocritywhere it smouldered these pastmonths, the February Pulse, out to¬day, is easily the best so far thisyear.

Pulse is dominated byan air of charity for the Refugee AidDrive. A letter by freshman Bob Rey¬nolds stating the case against it is re¬futed by Editor Ned Rosenheim in awell-worded rebuttal.

I believe that inpolitical ideals there are cycles. Forsome time nations’ governments arereally democratic—then there is areaction. Weaknesses in the demo¬cratic structure make people turnto dictatorship.“But people cannot long endurethis slavery and they turn to demo¬cracy again. The cycle is completed.For that reason I am convinced thatthe world will turn once again todemocratic forms of government.”Revealing an excellent and force¬ful command of the English lan¬guage, Benes said that it was im¬possible to predict these cycles, sincetoo many factors had to be taken in¬to account.Czechoslovakian FutureCzechoslovakia, he insisted, has notbeen crippled industrially, and re¬gardless of the effect of the Munichagreement his nation would slowlybuild her way back to her old-timeprosiierity.Benes declined to discuss recentevents on the continent, pleading withnewshawks not to embarass the coun¬try which the late Thomas Masaryk,he, and the late Milan Stefanek help¬ed to create in the critical days fol¬lowing the war.“I am not here as politician, butas a profe.'-'sor interested only in thescientific terrain,” he declared em¬phatically.He did make one comment aboutworld affairs, and that was thatgeneral war on the continent can beavoided.“Of course I can be wrong and toooptimistic, but I am convinced no onereally wishes a war—no one at all.”University facultymen, standingabout the room, puffed up when theyoverhead Benes comment, “I havegreat admiration for the Universityof Chicago, especially for PresidentRobert M. Hutchins. I took time tostudy it, and I am convinced that ithas done excellent work for Chi¬cago and for the entire country.” Pleased on Visit“I am extremely pleased that Icould come to your city,” he said. “Itcontains thousands of Czechs whoremain loyally sympathetic to theirformer country. There are suchstrong common interests betweenAmerican Czechs and those of mycountry.“Then I can follow in the footstepsof my predecessor and teacher,Thomas Masaryk, who lectured at theUniversity 35 years ago. This is anexcellent occasion in which to paytribute.”Benes was more than gratified withthe close cooperation and loyalty ofthe American nation throughout thehistory of the Czech republic.“Your country helped mine before,during, and after the war, and hascontinued to do so,” he stated. “Infact Czechoslovakia is known as thelittle small sister republic of theUnited States.”OrchestraPlays Cantataby HindemithPaul Spiro and Roland Bailey willbe soloists in tomorrow night’s pre¬mier performance of the Hindemithcantata, “Exhortation to Youth toApply Itself Diligently to Music,”performed by the University Sym¬phony Orchestra is the first concert ofthis season.Paul Spiro, a baritone, will sing thesolo role of the “Aria” the only partof the cantata which calls for a solo¬ist. Roland Bailey, a member of theChoir, the Collegium Musicum, andthe Tower Singers, will recite themelodrama to the accompaniment of aportion of the orchestra. This part ofthe cantata tells the happy effect ofmusic on a dangerous wild beast.Most of the cantata, however, ibsung by the Choir, which is dividedinto three parts, according to the re¬quirements of the score. The orchestra is divided for the cantata also, anoin addition one chorus will be accom¬panied by the New Hammond ElectricOrgan.The concert will be given in MandelHall and will be open to the entirecampus free of charge. Carnival SpiritReigns OverYWCA PartyThe spirit of Mardi Gras arriveson campus on Friday, in the form ofa street carnival on the second andthird floors of Ida Noyes, open to theentire campus from 7:30 to 12. Thisis the first time men have been in¬vited to the annual YWCA Carnival—games of chance, skill, and strengthhave been provided especially forthem. The winner of the most gamesduring the evening will be awardeda grand prize.The hostesses will preside amidconfetti and serpentine streamers incostumes. Marjorie Woodrick, chair¬man of the entertainment, has an¬nounced that no prices will exceed5 cents. Ruth Neuendorffer is incharge of the sideshows: a puppetshow by Prudence Coulter, exhibitiondancing by Virginia Clark, a stair¬way of horrors, a gift pond and amenagerie, are included in the car¬nival. Fortune-tellers Virginia Brownand Mrs. Chitwood will tell of past,present, and future.There will also be nail-hammering,penny-shooting, board-bowling, Chi¬nese checkers, lotto, bingo, balloon¬popping, bean bags and weight guess¬ing.

Dar¬ling will speak on “Conservation andthe Path of Civilization.”During his career as cartoonist hebecame interested in conservation asa hobby. After his retirement fromthe newspaper world he devoted allhis time to it. He is now president ofthe General Wildlife Federation andwas chief of the Biological Surveyof the Department of Agriculturefrom 1934 to 1936.Darling got his Ph.B. at Beloit andhis Ll.D. at Drake. One of his latestschemes is to bombard unstockedmountain lakes with containers ofsmall fish. The containers on hittingthe water open and the fish are freed.Professor Charles E. Merriam willintroduce Darling. Tickets may stillbe obtained without cha?;ge at theInformation Office.Chinese LosesPetition^ Gov^tPapers^ CoatOver 100 faculty members, studentsand University ofHcials signed a peti¬tion to President Roosevelt askinghim to prohibit the sending of muni¬tions to Japan. This petition was cir¬culated by a Chinese student, YauPik Chau.Chau usually carried the petitionaround with him in his overcoat. Oneday last week he left the coat outsidethe I'oom where he ate lunch. Whenhe returned it was gone.Also in the coat were some docu¬ments from the Chinese governmentimportant to Chau and impossible forhim to renew. He would be gratefulto anyone who returns his papers tohim at Room 238 InternationalHouse. Put Polling Places inHarper, Cobb, Mandel,Bursar’s Office.Voting in the Political Union elec¬tion, which will include a straw pollof mayoralty and aldermanic can¬didates in the pending city elections,opens today at 8:30 at voting boothsset up in Mandel corridor, Cobb firstfloor. Harper Library third floorwest, and the Bursar’s office. An ex¬tra polling place will be open duringthe noon hour at Ida Noyes hall. Anystudent registered in the Universitymay vote by presenting his tuitionreceipt at any of the voting boothsbetween 8:30 and 5:30.Last year, when the Union was or¬ganized, it was patterned after theUnion at Oxford. Voting was con¬ducted by selecting 20 nominees fromeach of three parties, liberal, conser¬vative and radical, which conform tothe divisions in the British parlia¬ment. This year however. ChairmanNed Fritz felt that it would be bet¬ter for the Union to adhere moreclosely to national party lines in theUnited States. Five parties havetherefore been set up—a conservativecoalition made up of Republicans andconservative Democrats, a liberalcoalition consisting of ProgressiveRepublicans and New Deal Demo¬crats, and three radical parties,Trotskyite, Socialist and Communist.Signify PartiesInstead of naming individuals asmembers to the Union, voters willsimply signify the party to whichthey belong. Total membership of 75will be divided among the five partiesin proportion to the vote they poll intoday’s election.Party caucuses, which will meet to¬morrow, will elect members to theUnion from among those present attheir meeting. Everyone who is inter¬ested in becoming a Union membertherefore, is urged to attend the cau¬cuses. Those of the liberal and theconservative coalitions have been setfor tomorrow at 3:30 in Cobb 210 and211 respectively.At that time, party co-chairmenwill also be named. A total member¬ship meeting, tentatively scheduledfor next week, will choose Union of¬ficers, no two of whom may be mem¬bers of the same party.Benes ReceivesCivic WelcomeUpon ArrivalUniversity, City andCzech Officials GreetFormer President.Seven thousand Chicagoans roaredtheir approval and admiration whenplucky Eduard Benes, former presi¬dent of crippled C ze c h o Slovakiastepped off the train at the LaSalleStreet station yesterday afternoon tobegin his work at the University un¬der the Walgreen foundation.As the Benes party stepped off thetrain two bands struck up the Ameri¬can and Czech national anthems, andthe crowd thundered out, “Czechoslo-vakia-Benes! Bravo!”Greeted by University Vice-Presi¬dent Emery Filbey, Professors Ells¬worth Faris, Samuel N.

Kerwyn comesfrom Baltimore. It was while he wasplaying in the South that he had ajam session with Jimmy Lunceford’sband. (Incidentally, Kerpays consid¬ers Lunceford second only to DukeEllington who in his opinion is thegreatest arranger of modem swing.)Among the well known people inthe swing world, Kerpays has jammedwith Buddy Rogers, Helen Ruth —the tenor player in Ina Ray Hut¬ton’s band, and Herbie Hemer andJimmy Dorsey at the Bon Aire. At! the Mortar Board party he played! with the mixed band of Washington; from Count Basie’s band, Elder fromi Isham Jones’, and Gus of Earl Hines’: band and the Cerides Brothers at the1 Chez Paree.I Strange as it may seem, he prefersI concert arrangements to swing, andI his favorite piece is DeBussy’s ClaireI de Lune. However he considers TatemI and Hines to be technically superior[ to most concert men, and on a pari with the best of the latter group ofI pianists. Kerpays’ pet peeve is Guyj Lombardo’s band which-he says playsI off key. He thinks that Artie Shaw isI much better than both Goodman andI Dorsey, and that Jimmy Dorsey is Riding On a RunningTwo Broken Legs.” Board WithWhen asked his opinion of theBlackfriars songs, Kerpays said thatmany of them have real merit. Uponciting the difficulty which was encoun¬tered in trying to have them pub¬lished, he remarked that that was ausual thing, however, songs whichfrequently have no popularity whenthey are written often become hitslater on. Two examples of this areBegin the Beguine and Deep Purplewhich were written five years ago andonly recently have become favorites.Both of these songs were rearrangedrecently which probably accounts forthe fact according to Kerpays who be¬lieves that the arrangement is themost important thing. This is alsotrue of bands. A good band withoutgood arrangements gets no-where, asshown by Benny Goodman’s exper¬ience. It was through arrangementsmade for him by Fletcher Hendersonthat Goodman finally reached pop¬ularity.After giving his opinion aboutthe Blackfriars’ songs, Kerpays vol¬unteered that freshman Margie Greyhas one of the best voices that he hasever heard.Kerpays’ vocabulary abounds withqueer swing terms. He says thatLunceford has a really “fly” Wnd. Helikes to jam just for the “kicks,” andhe prefers “gigs” to location jobs. Inexpressing his opinion of the MortarBoard party, he said that the “jointreally jumped”.All in all, Mr. Kerpays is a diction¬ary of swingology, and a reallyamazing personality.The best thing that today’sPolitical Union straw vote andparty selection can do is to re¬mind the campus that such anorganization still exists, and Gideonse Tattlesbetter than Tommy, while the old j Harry Gideonse, former associateDorsey Brothers’ band was superior j professor of economics and chairmanto either since they separated.Among the sweet jazz arrange¬ments he prefers Johnny Green’s“Body and Soul”, while his preferenceof hot jazz is divided between “Con¬sternation Among a Band of Indiansthat it was set up with high , upon Meeting With a Locomotive”hopes of arousing the student i and “The Perilous Predicament ofbody to intelligent discussion of of the Social Sciences survey in theCollege spoke in Washington, D.

I am not inagreement with all of them now...It is quite probable that I shall dis¬agree with some policies in the fu¬ture; for as I have told the mayor,I can only follow my own conscience.The mayor knows all this, for I havemade my position clear to him. Hehas not asked me for anything morethan that and in the light of all thishas thrown his support behind me.In a talk together, he said at theend, “One reason w’hy I want you onthe Board is because I am an Irish¬man and because I am an Irishman.I should like to see some more fightsin the council. It has been altogethertoo tame!”Board of Control,Daily Maroon:A certain group of people on thiscampus have suddenly become inter¬ested in the plight of the thousandsof American students who are in theunfortunate plight of not being ableto go to college to receive an educa¬tion. What are the reasons for thissudden interest in an admittedly de¬plorable situation?

The representa-1 Thition in the new Union will showhow many students are activelyinterested in the various partyprograms. And the second istration, which is performing thevery task which they profess theywant performed. Their statementsseem to be contradicted by their ac-s u d d e n humanitarianismwould seem therefore to be a conven¬ient shelter to hide their real reasonsfor opposition to the Refugee Aid.W'hat could be the real reason ? Thereare several possibilities. One possi-change is that if the people who j bility is that these students feel thatare working on the electionmean what they say, there willbe some important revisions inthe Political Union’s policies.Henry Luccock, for example,says that there has been toomuch stress on speakers in the ' only one oppressed faction is beingaided, and they have no desire to aidthis faction. This is certainly a weakreason for supposedly “enlightened”university students, and furthermoreis false since aid will be distributedequally between Catholics, Protes-past, and not enough emphasison developing a good discussion tants, and Jews. Perhaps the reasonfor opposition to Refugee Aid is lackof interest in the plight of these op-among the members on the issue i pressed peoples. It is oneof the evening. Charles Cranesays that there has been toomuch secrecy, and too littledemocracy of organization. Headvocates opening the executivecommittee meetings to theUnion membership, so that theycan have some say in what isgoing on in selection of topicsand speakers. Others are con¬cerned about the ritualistic or¬der of business in the Union,limiting discussion with rules s preroga¬tive to have no interest in this de¬plorable situation, but lack of interestis no reason for opposing the plan,and furthermore it should not be hid-without any fuss. An over for¬malized organization cannot livelong at the University. A groupwhich bases its appeal on speak¬ers cannot hope to compete withother University attractions.But for a good discussion ses¬sion, intelligently run, there iswhich choke off a good fight at j a place on campus. Board of Control,Daily Maroon:Henry Luccock, in his statement ofthe Conservative platform in lastweek’s Maroon, like so many peoplewho cannot adequately rationalizetheir emotions, argues with wordswhose meanings he does not into atall. I refer to phrases like “ASUdomination of the Daily Maroon”, “ahotbed of pink leftism”, “The prom¬inent position taken by radical organ¬izations”, the domination of campuspolitical life by “the Popular FrontMachine”.Mr. Luccock says the President“has accepted the Comm.unist beliefthat the end justifies the means”. Ifhe believed the end justifies themeans he could become violent, anduse unlawful means to achieve hisends. Despite the AAA and NIRA, Ithink it is clear that the Presidentdoes not believe the end justifies themeans. Is Roosevelt’s “progressive”political machine corrupt and “reac¬tionary”? Has the merit system beenregarded in “the most brazen con¬tempt . . . since Andrew Jackson”, oris is just the Chicago Tribune which.says so?

Is it true that balancing thebudget and “permitting the businessman to expand” will “thereby in¬crease the national income and reducethe relief rolls”? Mr. Luccock has notdemonstrated the validity of hispoints. He did no more than re-hashthe old stock phrases which meansalmost nothing.The last point is this: Mr. Luccockwrites that ‘ ‘The Republican plat¬form of 1940 may advocate preserva¬tion of most of the New Deal reformswith some revision and consolida¬tion.” “Republicanism does not neces-•sarily mean reaction. But it doesmean ‘time out’.” This quotation ispretty full of vulnerable spots, butthe one I wish to attack is the in¬definiteness of the platform. It seemsto me that the most important thingfor a member of a political party, orrather for the party itself, should bethe platform; yet here is a platformwhich “may” do thus and so, and ifit does, the “thus and so” is NewDealish anyway.

Benes, however,can be sure of a strictly student au¬dience since even faculty memberswere refused tickets and every stu¬dent was required to identify himselfvia a tuition receipt which wasstami>ed “Benes” in order to prevent“repeating.”The first of the series of ten lec¬tures will be given next Monday at4::>0 in Mandel.

Mayoralty Candidates Attack ILindheimerSchool System at Meeting Runs for Office Roselli—(Continued from page 1)The school question was the mainsubject for controversy last nightwhen the four mayoralty candidatesspoke in Mandell Hall at a specialelection meeting sponsored by theHyde Park League of Women Votersand the Daily Maroon.As William Hale Thompson de¬fended the school administrationwhich existed during his term of of¬fice, Dwight Green attacked MayorKelly, “the only candidate now in aposition to improve the system,” fornot having requested the resignationof the superintendent of schools.Kelly, speaking last on the programand not having heard the previousspeakers, declared his inability to dis¬charge the Board or Superintendentbut announced that seven members ofhis proposed advisory board would beannounced today.Courtney SpeaksThe remaining candidate, ThomasJ. Courtney stated that machinepolitics are responsible for the corruptschool system and the only way toFive DebateUnion MembersTravelThe fact that five Debate Unionmembers are now off on two sep¬arate trips is evidence of the wide¬spread interest the Union’s RoundTable method has aroused at otherschools throughout the country. Oneteam composed of Bud Briggs, LauraLandman, and Don Ridge has beensingled out of approximately 40 or50 other debate teams travelingaround the country by Lincoln Uni¬versity at Jefferson City, Missouri,to make am all-expenses-paid appear¬ance before the school. There willbe two engagements, one before stu¬dents, and the other a public meet¬ing which will be broadcast.In their three-day series of en¬gagements beginning yesterday andending today, they also plan to visitWashington University in St. Louis,Missouri, where they will speak notonly before the University, but be¬fore the Normandy High School toillustrate the Round Table technique,and before prominent business andprofessional groups in the city aswell. The topic under discussion willbe “Higher Education.”Ralph Cottam and Alex Sommer-ville constitute the other DebateUnion team which is simultaneouslyappearing at Bradley Politechnic Col¬lege in Illinois in a three-day seriesof programs which are also on"Higher Education.”This engagement is partly due tofact that Bradley’s debating coach isE. Bryant, a Chicago graduate.Yesterday the team worked withBradley’s speakers on the RoundTable method for the following twodays’ programs.

Michigan Ave.lOS ANGELESi 756 S. BroadwayaPage Four THE DAILY MAROON, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 16, 1939DAILY MAROON SPORTSOracleBy JOEAgain this year, as in the past,Chicago’s basketball team has lookedgood early in the season, but hasfailed to come through and improveas the season has progressed. Notlong ago, the News referred to theMaroons as “probably the most im¬proved team in the conference”; theywould not venture to make the samestatement a second time, in view ofthe poor showing of the Midwaymenin recent games.It is hardly fair to say that theteam is not good—what they lack isthat intangible certain somethingwhich enables a team to stage a rallylate in a game and pull it out of thefire at the eleventh hour. Some call itpunch; others call it spirit, but in thelast analysis, what the boys need isconfidence. If they were to go out onthe floor early in the game with acertain calm determination that theywould win, no matter what, and thattheir shots would go in, somehow orother, their chances of victory wouldbe greatly enhanced.Instead, however, the team is toldthat they have to get out there andfight every minute, that their shotshave to go in; in short, they are keyedup to a point where they are unre¬liable, nervous, and easily demoral¬ized. Any kind of a bad break can up¬set such an unstable team, and thegame is as good as lost.Another department of the game inwhich the Maroons don’t seem tomeasure up is in getting the reboundsfrom their opponents’ backboards.The reason? They are taught to lookwith holy terror on any team whichuses any kind of a fast break. Con¬sequently, instead of having three orfour men up under the basket follow¬ing up a shot, they are lucky if thereis one Chicago man in there fightingfor a follow-up shot. This type ofplay is what has been termed “yellowbasketball”. In all athletics, it is gen¬erally conceded that the best defenseis a good offense; so why give theball to the other team every time Chi¬cago takes a shot?Even in the days of the great BillHaarlow, one of the most outstandingbasketball players of all time, Chica¬go’s teams were not particularly out¬standing. True, they won more gamesthan they do now, but with such aplayer as Haarlow, adequately as¬sisted as he was by his teammates, itseems very strange that the Maroonsnever distinguished themselves on thebasketball court.The supporters of losing teams areinclined to blame their favorites’lackof success on some external factor,such as the referee. Chicago is noexception in this respect; it is reallya disgusting exhibition of poorsportsmanship for an outsider to goto and particularly to listen to oneof Chicago’s games. The refereesdon’t need any help; surely, they makemistakes, but the reason they arehired is that they know the rules ofthe game, and any comments fromthe “peanut gallery” are poor taste,and, above all, useless. More oftenthan not, the officials are only antag¬onized by superfluous comments fromthe stands. Alpha Belt PlacesThree Teams inIM PlayoffsTennis Team MakesSouthern TripFor the first time in the history oftennis teams at the University of Chi¬cago the Maroon racket-wielders willmake a trip outside of Big Ten ter¬ritory when they head for the sunnysouthland in March.

Season TonightChicago’s hockey team will playthe Long Arrows amateur sextetfrom the southwest side, tonight atnine, whether the weathei’ is favor¬able or not. From all indications,however, nothing short of a tornadowill keep the anxious players fromengaging in their favorite sport. Toomuch heat prevented the two teamsfrom playing last Monday. Admissionis free on presentation of the skat¬ing ticket.The probable lineup is as follows:left wing—Vernon Moore; right wing— George Sharpe; center — LoaneRandall; left defense—Bill Elliot;right defense—C. Mclvor and goalie—Bon Ferguson or Bill Pfender.Bernstein and Blumenthal will sub¬stitute at left defense and right de¬fense, respectively. Three substitutelines will agument the regular for¬ward trio. They are: Evans, Princeand Bean—Foster, Raymond andMaynes—Steinbecke, Lytle and Palm¬er. The starting lineup is composed ofveterans from last year with the ex¬ception of Loane Randal, centerSince hockey demands the utmost inphysical exertion, it is safe to sivthat every player will get in thegame. Most of the pucksters work outdaily and seem anxious to improvetheir style. However, there is stillplenty of room for any freshman, un¬dergraduate student or any graduatestudent to turn out and make theteam.Last year the hockey players wontwo informal games, that is, gamesin which freshmen and graduate stu¬dents are allowed to play along withvarsity.
