Chiefspeakers will be Professor LouisWirth, on housing. Professor Wayne.McMillan on relief, and Kermit Eby,of the Chicago Teachers Union, onthe needs and rights of labor. j•Although the ASU as taken the |initiative in calling this conference,it will include representatives of themajority of student organizations oncampus, ar.d has received wide sup¬port among the faculty. Faculty mem¬bers actively sponsoring the assemblyare Mary Gilson, David Grene, Jer¬ome Kerwin, Sam Harper, ClarenceFaust, and Earle Johnson.Students Co-operateStudent leaders who have co-opeiated in planning the Conference arRichard Feise, president of the Student Non-Partisan Election Committee; Gilbert Hunter, president of thSS.A Club; Judy Forrester, chairma‘>f the ASU; Habin Perkins, president of the History Club; Joe Ep^tein, president of Avukah; BurMoyer, secretary of InterfraternitCommittee; Claud Hawley, presiden<'f the Graduate Political SciencClub; Constance Williams, of the program committee of the GraduatEconomics Seminar; Mary Sloampresident of the Negro StudentClub; Paul Berkman, president of thSociology Club; Marian Rappaporlof the ASU New Theatre GroupHenry Levine, vice-president of Kappa Sigma; Robert Mayer, secretar;of Blackfriars, and George Probst.A continuations committee, electeifi’om students present at this firsconference, will continue the work beKun here. A permanent legislativorganization on f^e campus is thgoal of planners o^ the assembly. The University Band, indispensablepart of every sports event, gives itsannual winter concert Sunday after¬noon, at 3:30 in Mandel Hall. Atthat time the members hope to provethat they can do something besidesa little filling-in during lulls in bas¬ketball and football games.Among the numbers to be playedis “Autumn,” an overture by DonaldSalathiel, a young Chicago composer.Mr. Salathiel was formerly a mem¬ber of the Minneapolis Symphony.His piece was discovered as a resultof one of the band’s innumerablefunctions which is to play unpublishedmusic and decide if it is worthy ofpublication. Harold Bachman, direc¬tor of the band, believes that Sala-thiel’s piece is one of the most sig¬nificant attempts to write fine musicin the band idiom.Play “Concertino”Another interesting number willbe “Concertino,” well known clari¬net solo by Weber. The solo part ofthis number will be played in unisonby ten members of the clarinet sec¬tion of the Band.This year the Band will attemptthe most difficult piece in its history,Tschaikowsky’s “Capriccio Italien.”The complete program includes“Proce.ssion of the Nobles” by Rim-sky-Korsakov, Concert Overture byHenry Hadley, “Zingaresca” by Cur-zon, “Trumpeters Three” by Agos-tini-Bainum, Nocturne by Griselle,Tschaikowsky’s “Capriccio Italien,”Elsa’s Procession to the Cathedralfrom W’agner’s “Lohengrin,” Sala-thiel’s Overture, Weber’s clarinet so¬lo, “Rhapsody in Rhumba” by DavidBennett, “Blossom Time” by Schu-bert-Romberg, and concluded by the“Alma Mater.”Admission to the concert will befree.Woodward IllFrederic Woodward, Vice-Presidentof the University, recently contract¬ed pneumonia while on a visit toCalifornia. .A report has been receivedthat he is greatly improved. Who Gets The Blame?The twelve gambling spots that were listed in Tuesday’sMaroon are still open and flourishing. It is just as easy to getinto them, and into the multitudes of their brothers that werenot listed, as it ever was. The proprietors are smilingly confidentthat peace and prosperity will continue to be their lot.The blame for this laxity in the face of flagrant and publi¬cized violation of anti-gambling laws lies with as neat a job ofbuck-passing as has ever been staged. All public officials ap¬proached have either laughed off the charges or ignored them.And private citizens have performed their civic duty by patron¬izing the bookies and game tables to such an extent that eyenthe high cost of protection can’t stop new spots from enteringa flourishing field of business.These are the people who won’t do anything about cleaningup the ward: the police, Kelly, Courtney, the solid citizens whorent their buildings to gambling syndicates, the worthies who goup and place their bets, the students whose parents unwittinglypay their way through the Johnson-Skidmore plan of education.Here is one organization that may do something about it:the University as a business force in the community, backed byresidents who mean what they say when they cry for goodgovernment.The Hyde Park police have the materials for the Maroon in¬vestigation. They have said in the past that their fingers itch tolay open a good bookie joint. They say in the present that theydon’t know anything about this and they aren’t going to investi¬gate.(Continued on Page 2)Show Disney inColor, ^The River,’Campus NewsreelThe University Newsreel, out toestablish itself as a campus institu¬tion, will pi*esent its new film, mostlyin technicolor, at five shows today inthe Oriental Institute.The program will open with WaltDisney’s color cartoon, “King Nep¬tune,” which will be followed by thecampus newsreel. Then comes thefeature picture, .“The River,” whichhas been the center of continued de¬bate throughout the country since itwas produced by the United Statesgovernment.In a recent Scribner’s article Col¬onel McCormick, publisher of theChicago Tribune, called the picturean attempt on the part of New Deal¬ers to convince the public to spendmore money.Film Has Excellent PhotographyHowever, in opposition to the film’scritics, the picture has been judgedas one of the best of 1938, from thepoint of story and photography.The campus pictures will contain“shots” of events that have takenplace around the University duringthe past quarter. The Newsreel wasgranted a special interview with Dr.Eduard Benes, and has also succeed-e<l in obtaining an alumni film onUniversity administrators and educa¬tors. Technicolor pictures of theWashington Prom will also be shown.The afternoon shows begin at 2:30and continue for three performances,and the evening pictures will startat 7:30 with a second showing at8:45. Admission is 25 cents.Kappa Sigma,Hitchcock HallAid RefugeesTwo more donations yesterdaypushed the Refugee Aid drive for¬tunes up another $350 and over the$4000 mark at the end of the secondweek.Kappa Sigma joined the train offraternities and donated to the Ref¬ugee board $25o. However, the Inter-Fraternity council voted 9-4 againsthaving a beer party for raisingfunds.Kimball Plochman at present isheading a drive in Hitchcock hall toraise $100 for the Board, and theInterclub Council has planned a Don¬key Basketball game for the samepurpose. Other campus organizationshave the Drive on the agenda, andthe coming quarter will see numer¬ous social functions specified forRefugee Aid. Name PrescottAs Professorof EducationNew Appointee Consid¬ered Leader in HisField.Considered the country’s leadingauthority on the relation of emotionto education, Daniel A. Prescott, pro¬fessor of Education at Rutgers Uni¬versity, has accepted an appoint¬ment as professor of Education here.He will spend one quarter a yearteaching, and the other three quar¬ters directing the Division on HumanGrowth and Development, a part ofthe American Council of Education’steacher-training project which will beconducted at the University.The appointment of Dr. Prescottemphasizes the shift in interest in theDepartment of Education from thestudy of techniques of teaching toinvestigation of the process of learn¬ing. Producing evidence to show howthe emotions of a child effect every¬thing he does, and how what is donein the schools affects the emotions,Prescott presents a new and impor¬tant approach to psychological as¬pects of education.Believes Emotions Can Be TrainedWith the demonstration of the re¬lation of emotions to learning, he hasstressed the need for paying atten¬tion to the role of emotions in theschool and family. Emotions can betrained, he believes, and by trainingthem education will produce well-balanced adults, despite the condu¬civeness of the present-day world toabnormality.F'or his work on the Division ofHuman Growth and Development,Prescott will assemble all the ma¬terials made available through re¬search on the emotional, physical,and mental development of adoles¬cents, and the inter-relationships ofthese elements. This central collec¬tion of materials, which is plannedto continue for the next three years,will be the first to unify studies onthe subject.Here during SummerPrescott, who will join the Uni¬versity faculty during the summerquarter, is 41 years old. He was astudent at Tufts College and Har¬vard University; and from 1923 to1926 he was a member of the facultyat Harvard; then he taught at theRousseau Institute in Geneva. Since1928 he has been professor of Educa¬tion at Rutgers.From 1934 to 1938 Prescott wasChairman of the Committee on Emo¬tion and the Educative Process ofthe American Council on Education.Product of his experience in this po¬sition is the book “Emotion and theEducative Process.”/mA Maroon Reporters Talkover Situation with Po¬lice Sergeant.Fifth Ward bookies and gam¬bling joints, which now defi¬nitely total 25, ran gayly wideopen late yesterday as local po¬lice Captain Raymond Crane,Mayor Kelly and State’s Attor¬ney Courtney flatly refused totake action on flagrant local lawbreaking. In fact the only noteof cleanup was sounded at thenotorious J o h n s o n-Skidmore“Club Southland” at 6245 Cot¬tage Grove where a newly cau¬tious doorman asked if prospec¬tive customers were “studentsat the University of Chicago.”The Daily Maroon first went insearch of elusive Captain RaymondCrane. “I don’t make no statements”—see” threatened the literate Captainwho hulks about six foot three. “Youknow I can’t make no statements,”he added querously and walked out ofthe station.Mayor Kelly BeamsWhile Mayor Kelly’s picture beam¬ed from all four walls, the desk ser¬geant meanwhile explained wearilythat “he was only a bird in a gildedcage.” “What’s the matter, sister, didya lose some money on the horses?”he queried suspiciously. “I supposeyou’re just a fine, upstanding citizenwho wants to see the law enforced,ain’t ya,” he chided unbelievingly.We suggested that he take a slum¬ming expedition down the blocksomeday and see the Turk-Reillysmoke shop at Lake Park or theJohnson-Skidmore gambling joint lo¬cated in an abandoned garage scarce¬ly a half a block from the police sta¬tion.Neither did Mayor Kelly take timeoff from his whitewashing campaignlong enough to chide local police—ashe did a few years ago when theWashington Park race track was los¬ing money and all city bookies closedup tight as a drum for the racingseason through direct order of themayor’s office.Courtney CommentsState’s Attorney Courtney wasequally evasive, claiming that soleresponsibility for action now belong¬ed to Police Commissioner Allman,despite the fact that he personallyhas shut down on all Rogers Parkgambling activity.State’s Attorney Courtney’s com¬ment was, “Vice conditions in thecity are Police Commissioner All¬man’s job. Why doesn’t she see him?The police captain of the district canclean it up in five minutes if hewants to.”When asked for a statement in re¬gard to Courtney's charges. Commis¬sioner Allman reported, “Mr. Court¬ney is running for public office. That’sall I have to say.”Investigation of bookie propertyownership discloses that the recordtitle of the mammoth Johnson-Skid¬more “Club Southland” at 6245 Cot¬tage Grove which has seen the riseand fall of many city administra-(Continued on page 6)Chapel Union DanceFor Refugee AidChapel Unioners and Universitystudents will swing out at anotherof the Chapel Union Barn Dances,this time in the interest of RefugeeAid, in Ida Noyes Hall tonight.By vote of the Chapel Union Boardall funds received will be divided asfollows: 10 per cent to the Germanscholarship funds, 50 per cent to theSpanish funds, and 40 per cent to theFar Eastern Student Service Fund.Everyone is asked to come in cos¬tume.

He was askedfor an interview; he was askedfor an answer. Neither has beengranted. Now he states thatbookie-raiding is not within hisprovince.The buildings housing thegambling joints are owned notby A1 Capone and his henchmenbut by respectable citizens.The places themselves arepatronized by the good peopleof Hyde Park and Woodlawnwho are yet able to keep tonguesout of cheeks when they demandgood government for Chicago.The students appreciate thefact that the Maroon printed forthem a directory of the bestspots in the neighborhood, andcontinue to push ethics into theback of their minds the whilethey pay to keep crime and cor¬ruption in the city.There is still the law, how¬ever, and there is still a stronggroup of good citizens in theward who want to see this sec¬tion of the city cleaned up. TheUniversity business office, if itchooses, can be the mobilizingpoint in the drive to apply thelaw. The business heads of theUniversity may conceivablywant to keep silence until theprimaries are over, for fear ofbeing accused of political parti¬sanship. But the primaries areover by the middle of next week,and then their influence inneighborhood property ownersgroups can make itself felt, andto good effect.This is a good time to makea test case of the sincerity ofthe city officials. Charity maymake us say that before theprimaries Kelly and Courtneycan’t afford to offend the boysthey play around with. Afterthe primaries, however, it canonly be a matter of pocket-liningif they refuse to act.A strong protest from theUniversity business office, sentwith the cooperation of theproperty owners’ organizations,can turn the trick or once andfor all expose the motives ofChicago politicians. After theelection there is no longer anyexcuse for inaction.We hope to hear from Busi¬ness Manager Harrell nextWedne.sday. By ERNEST LEISERAided by the frivolous if unseemlyantics of Prom Leader Deadman, theGWP was a conspicuous success. Themodernistic decorations failed to con¬ceal the fact that Bartlett Gym wasBartlett Gym, but Lunceford wasI good and everybody was feeling mel-[ low and tolerant, so no one noticedthe girders showing through, or thebulky spotlights which shed gentlelight and made even University ofChicago women look enhancing.According to unreliable sources,chum Deadman was stewed.

Off campusthis production is practically un¬known. It is a fairly accurate state¬ment to say that the only outsiderswho attend Mirror are the very goodfriends and the long suffering rela¬tives of students who are performing.Student attendance is likewise small.Why? The unfortunate truth is thatMirror is not known as a good show.Mirror’s failure to be a hit is notdue to lack of talent. There are manymen and women on this campus whopossess the ability and the trainingnecessary to make this production asuccess. Probably the best knownamong these is Grant Atkinson. At¬kinson is doing an almost superhumanjob in this year’s Mirror. He has writ¬ten his own skit, composed the Musicfor it, the Trotsky Trot, and is doingthe acting and dancing. No doubt At¬kinson will be the hit of the show,but can he be expected to carry it?Among others less well known, butalso possessing ability ai'e VirginiaClark, Marjorie Whitney, and Jos¬ephine Kelley, who are not wellknown because they did not have thenecessary pull in the past to securespecialty numbers.* * nCertain plausible suggestions havebeen made as to a way of betteringMirror.1. Primarily, politics and favoritismshould be cast aside. This is quite abig order for an activity which hasalmost from its birth, been run onsuch a basis. Two classic examples ofsuch favoritism are well illustratedboth in the cases of Grant Atkinsonand John McWhorter. Atkinsonmakes no secret of the fact that inthe past he was accepted for Mirrornot because of his obvious talent butbecause he had pull.2. As a student show, why not have\ student direction ? For the dancingI end of Mirror at least, this suggestion■ is possible. There are men and wom¬en on this campus who have bothtraining and experience in teaching.This phase of the production couldbe turned over to them. With aboardof dance directors many of the un¬fortunate incidents which havedogged the training of the dancersthis year could be prevented. One di¬rector is not sufficient as has beenproved by this year’s experience. MissDavies came to us with a reputationof being a fine dancer. However, thefact that she had not previously ar¬ranged the ensemble numbers, thusc.susing repeated changes, and herrecent illness, have resulted in sucha mess, that members of the chorusare dropping out because they aredisgusted and feel that they are wast¬ing their time.♦ ♦ *3. Divide the chorus into two sec¬tions comprised of those who havehad training and those who have not.In its present form it is unfair to bothgroups. Those who have had trainingare not allowed to demonstrate it,whereas those who have had none areshown at a disadvantage. This divi¬sion can be successfully accomplishedthrough allowing those who aretrained to do advanced work, and theothers to do show girl routines.4. Have more specialty numbers.And have the girls to do them. Mirroris a women’s production and it wouldseem fair to allow women to do thesenumbers, rather than to exclude themso that men might have the starringparts in the show.6. Have a theme running througnthe whole production. It will helpmaintain interest and will also pre¬vent the rush which invariably occurswhen skits are brought in during thelast few weeks before production.All in all, this article may soundlike a series of gripes. It was not in¬tended as such but as constimctivecriticism, and was submitted in an ef¬fort to bring about a better show—a show as successful as the talentson our campus indicate that it shouldbe. . Marshall Mason Knappen, assistantprofessor of English History has writ¬ten a book on “Tudor Puritanism’’released this week by the UniversityPress. In this work Knappen dealswith the 16th century, semi-medievalphase of Puritanism which he tellsus is very different from the sectar¬ian, nationalistic and less pacifisticPuritanism of the 17th century. ToKnappen a “Puritan’’ means thoseEnglish Protestants who actively fa¬vored a reformation beyond thatwhich the king was willing to coun¬tenance.The study is divided into two sec¬tions: (1) The party history and pol¬itical theory and (2) the intellectual,social and cultural aspects, the latterincludes examinations of the spirit,theology, ideal and social outlook of | the group and an explanation of thePuritan doctrine of authority.Interested in IdealismThe study is related to the author’sinterest in idealism as a whole andhis view of its place in a well orderedsociety.

FRIDAY. FEBRUARY 24, 1939Letters to theEditorKditor of the Daily Maroon,Sir:I do not recall ever before writingyou requesting the use of your col¬umns, nor would I do so now did notPaul Douglas’ aldermanic candidacypresent an issue of such great impor¬tance that I feel all publicity shouldbe given it; also that any hostility tohim and his program be brought intothe open and examined. In some quar¬ters this hostility clearly exists. Howextensive it is I have no means ofknowing but that it should exist atall in the University community isnot only regretable but surprising. Apeculiar combination of political ri¬valries and conflicts makes it possiblein the coming election for a unitedbody of progressive citizens, disre¬garding party affiliations, to elect asalderman a man whose training and«)ualities are such as to be almostunique in a candidate for such an of¬fice. But instead of whole-heartedlywelcoming the opportunity, men andwomen of the University communityare divided in their opinions. Opposi¬tion to Mr. Douglas which I haveheard expressed is based upon twocharges: (1) That he dLsapproves ofthose neighborhood agreements bywhich property owners restrict cer¬tain districts to white residents andowners; (2) That he supports Mayor Kelly. Let me examine both briefly.(1) The City Council has no powereither to approve or disapprove re¬strictive agreements voluntarily en¬tered into by property owners. Thecourts have decided that the State hasjurisdiction in such matters. What¬ever Mr. Douglas’ views—and theyare realistic—he could not, even if hewould, as alderman, alter the presentsituation except in one importantparticular. Those who have listenedto his program know that he has aconstructive plan for housing reformin the crowded west end of the ward,which if put into effect would ease asituation potentially dangerous andwhich if uncorrected may lead to aloss of property values in the Univer¬sity neighborhood. Those who are in¬fluenced by the whispering campaignagainst Mr. Douglas owe it to them¬selves to attend one of his meetings,listen to his program, and questionhim.(2) Mayor Kelly has, for politicalreasons, decided to support Mr. Doug¬las’ candidacy rather than enter acandidate of his own who might failof election. Mr. Kelly supports Mr.Douglas, but Mr. Douglas does notsupport Mr. Kelly, as the latter verywell knows. The Mayor’s machinewishes to defeat Lindheimer andCourtney. This split in the Democrat¬ic ranks is the independent voter’sopportunity, one not often his and ofwhich he should avail himself. Mr.Douglas has, I am told, spokenagainst Courtney, though he did notdo so on the occasion on which I heardhim speak. It is surely, however, his Page Three.‘BOY, THIS PIPE TASTES G-R-E-A-TfILTIRIP SMOKINGinOODUIORTH’SONE CENTSALEIFirst item regular price — second 1 cent!Typing Paper - Bond Envelopes - White Napldns4x6 Index Cards • Pencils • Photo AlbumsStationery, plain and with U. oi C.

Nor does opposi¬tion to Courtney mean an endorse¬ment of Kelly. Mr. Douglas is a freeman. He may, indeed, think MayorKelly the lesser of two evils. The vot¬ers of Chicago are too often con¬fronted with such a choice and leftthe alternative either of not voting orof voting for a candidate of whomthey disapprove but whose rival theylike even less. It would be unfortun¬ate if the citizens of this ward wereto let the confusion incident to ma¬chine rivalries blind them to the op¬portunity they now have of electingan alderman independent of both fac¬tions and bringing to the City Coun¬cil a knowledge of housing, taxationproblems, and labor conflicts whichthat body greatly needs.I hesitate to voice what I fear isthe unacknowledged basis for an op¬position which snatches at one or an¬other pretext to oppose Mr. Douglas.His views on labor are known to beliberal. He' believes in solving theconflicts of labor and property in ademocratic and enlightened way.There are many timorous people whofeel that every concession to labor un¬ions and every improvement in thelot of working men is a blow to thesecurity of property. Tbe history oflabor conflicts and labor legislationdoes not justify this fear, but thereit is. The support of Courtney bymany respectable citizens is due tohis seeming services to property. Butthe interests of property are not real¬ly served by Memorial Day massa¬cres; and a District Attorney whofails to prosecute those responsiblefor them is no true friend to law andorder, to human rights, nor even tothe stability of property and thecapitalistic system. A Universitycommunity, of all communities, shouldnot be deceived by the cross purposesand confused alignments of the pres¬ent campaign. A vote for Courtneyor against Douglas is impossible toanyone of democratic principles whoexamines the issues. Consider theimplications of voting for anyoneother than Douglas. For the alterna¬tives to Courtney there is, of course,little to be said, but it is neverthe¬less true that some evils are greaterthan others. Such is Courtney.In closing I would remind you thatMr. Douglas was persuaded reluct¬antly to become a candidate for elec¬tion. He does so at the sacrifice ofwork more interesting to him and atthe cost of time for research andwriting. If elected he will experiencechiefly ingratitude and abuse. Forhis own happiness and peace of mindI rather hope he fails to be elected.But the University community willshow itself easily gulled by the pol¬iticians if it fails to put Mr. Douglasto work in the City Council.I remainYours sincerely,Carl H. Grabo.Board of Control,Daily Maroon:Although I am quite certain thatthe beliefs you expresed in your mostrecent blast at the social committeeare sincere expressions of what youthink is right, I should like to takethis opportunity to argue the cause ofthe committee. The views as expressedin this letter are purely of a personalnature—I speak only for myself—notthe entire committee.May I first correct the erroneousimpressions that has been created inregard to Bob Eckhouse and hisviews. As a fraternity brother andnow an off campus associate of“Eck,” I believe that I am in a posi¬tion to explain his views as well asany of his former campus associates.Looking back into history let us viewthe Student Social Committe beforeEckhouse took charge. Its duties andfunctions had always consisted offirst—running a dinner and twodances during freshman week, thenYOU ARE INVITED!!HEARMAYOR KELLYand Other Leading Candidatesc-Discuss Campaign IssuesHOTEL SHORELANDFriday, Feb. 24th - 8 p. m.Sfh Ward Regular Democratic OrganizationDavid Eichner — Ward Committeeman1503 East 55th Street — Dorchester 4711...rs. .Mayer Edword J, Kelt/ the Washington Prom and finallyleaders’ day in the spring.The campus seemed ready for a newsocial set-up, but Eck had alreadywatched the workings of the Commit¬tee and reasoned thusly. He knew thetime and effort required to run suchan event as the Prom and had exper¬ienced an additional taste of hardwork in promoting the first C-Esta.He felt that although the campuscertainly had need of more thandances to satisfy socially inclined in¬dependents, the Social Committee hadno time to devote to additional work.At that time he conceived the idea ofa Reynolds Club Council which todayfunctions adequately in handlingproblems of independent males oncampus. The Student Social Commit¬tee, as in the past, feels that its placeon campus is confined to the promo¬tion of dances designed as the mostsuccessful from of get-togethers”.Furthermore, it has and will continueto be the most efficient body in thatline of promotion on campus. Aselsewhere in a democracy, the entirecampus should and does function asa group of independent units. Hencethe success of the Reynolds Club-IdaNoyes-Chapel Union-YWCA-etc.Independents, fraternity men, andclub people can all find diversified en¬tertainment and diversion to theirhearts content in the many groupsnamed above and more. At the sametime, these groups offer opportunityfor independent participation — en¬forced attendance at the functions ofcentralized planners which would bethe only entertainment offered underthe straight federated plan. Hencethe Student Social Committee is hon¬est and sincere in its belief that ithas found its rightful place in campusactivities. In the best interests of allconcerned it prefers to maintain astatus quo until such time that theUniversity authorities see the needfor federation that opponents of thecommittee seem to see.In conclusion I offer this personal conviction, that the Student SocialCommittee has a valuable function oncampus. The C-dances were an im¬portant orientation factor this year asare nearly all of the Committee’saforementioned activities.In the sincere hope that you willdiscontinue your policy of muckrak¬ing and thus allow the Committee tocontinue its valuable work unimpeded.Jimmy Goldsmith.Board of Control,Daily Maroon:I wish to express my disapproval ofthe University Newsreel showing“The River” in Oriental Institute Fri¬day. I express the opinion of ColonelMcCormick and many students whenI say that this film is a glorificationof the New Deal “Spending Spree”as exemplified by the power projectswhich have been and are being builtin this country.It is a shining example of the prop-agandistic methods of the presentgovernment for urging the voters tospend larger sums of money than areessentially necessary.

Douglas Will Follow OnlyOwn Conscience if Elected{J'his is the second in a series of ar¬ticles presenting the views of the candi¬dates in the campaign for alderman ofthe Fifth Ward.)“I have always been an independ¬ent in city politics and I shall con¬tinue to be one. I have made no com¬mittments to any political faction andI shall not make any. If I am electedto the city council, I shall follow on¬ly my own conscience and shall notaccept dictation from any group crindividual.”This was the statement of Paul A.Douglas, professor of economics,when questioned about his platform.Concerning the actual platform thereare seven reforms that Douglas prom¬ises in the ward and eight issues thathe holds vital to the city at large.Open Ward OfficePromising to represent every resi¬dent of the ward, Douglas intends toset up an office in both the east andwest sections of the ward and keepregular office hours.He will also set up an advisorycommittee representing the variouscivic, religious, fraternal and neigh-bo r h o o d groups in the wai*d,will develop additional recreation- |al facilities, improve the cleaningI of streets and alleys and reduce theI smoke, work for the creation of aj civic center in every ward where citi¬zens may transact their official busi¬ness, and seek to decentralize munici-' pal governmen t as much as possible“so that our citizens may activelyparticipate in and not merely consentto government.”Regarding the city issues Douglasintends to work for an honest andprogressive city government with ap¬pointments and promotions to be madeon merit. Attacking the school sys¬tem he believes in the reduction ofthe size of classes and restoration ofthe 10 month school term, the cuttingof maintenance costs, the restorationof salary cuts and the placing of thebusiness manager and attorney underthe control of the Superintendent.In addition Douglas plans to workfor city government cooperation inmodel housing projects, adequate re¬lief under efficient administration,development of a more effective trans¬portation system, abolition of officiallawlessness, and creation of a CityBoard of Mediation and Arbitrationto reduce labor disputes and strikesand support of all measures for stim¬ulating productive business.Douglas EndsCampaign withParade MondayRoundtable DiscussesNeutrality ActAn analysis of the potentialities ofAmei’ica’s Neutrality act will be madeon this Sunday’s Round Table by Car-roll Binder, Foreign Editor of theChicago Daily News; Clifton Utley,director of the Chicago Council onForeign Relations; and Walter H.

Mur¬phy; Illinois Lacks Cap¬tain Nisbet.Chicaffo stock took a nosedive onthe athletic exchange again yester¬day when it was announced that ChetMurphy was down with the mumpsand would be unable to play againstIllinois at Champaign next Monday.On the other hand, the Illini are ham¬pered just as much if not more, be¬cause of the loss of their captain.Tommy Nisbet.Coach Nels Norgren observed yes¬terday that Nisbet’s absence wouldbe most keenly felt on the Illinoisoffense, becau.se he was an important(Og in the Orange and Blue fastbreak, which brought disaster to theMaroons earlier in the year. Whenasked if he would go out on the limbwith regard to the forthcoming en¬counter, Norgren remarked, “I don’tsee any reason for it; Illinois beat usby ten points on our own floor, andto say that we will beat them ontheirs would be foolish.” On theother hand, he did not believe thatChicago was out of the game already.He went on to say, “We’ll certainlydo our best, and try to keep theirsharpshooters bottled up.”Stresse.s OffenseNorgren plans to stress offenseduring the practice sessions whichremain, in the hope of keeping theball down at the Orange and Blueend of the floor as much as possible.In connection with offense, he isspecially urging the team to followtheir shots. Several times duringyesterday’s practice he stopped every¬thing to tell a player to “cut m therefast; don’t just trot in; as soon asyou shoot, break for the basket.” Itis his plan to have Stampf, Louns-bury, and Meyer, his three tallestmen under the basket, most of thetime to take the rebounds and keeppossession of the ball..Meyer has tentatively replaced BobCassels at the forward post, becau.seCaptain Bob has not lived up to ex¬pectations this year. Norgren attri¬butes Cassels’ unimpressive showingto the fact that he started late in theseason and was unable to catch upwith the rest of the team, who hadlH*en working out since the middle ofthe Autumn quarter. In place of ChetMurphy will be Ralph Richardson,who was a regular guard before the•Murphs came along to take over theback-court posts.Optimistic about WisconsinWith regard to the Wisconsingame the Saturday following the en¬counter with the Illini, Coach Nor¬gren was more optimistic. He saidthat although the Badgers had afairly good team, they were not bol¬stered by any outstanding sharp¬shooters, as are most of the otherteams in the Big Ten. Since the Ma¬roons took the measure of Wisconsinby ten points up at Madison, Norgrenthought that Chicago had a verygood chance of coming out on top inthe second encounter. The Purduegame is a thing which he thinks hewill be better able to answer afterthe Illinois game, since the Orangeand Blue pounded the Boilermakerspretty thoroughly the other night,even without Nisbet.Vlarooii PuckstersWallop Eagles 7-3In their second game of the sea.son,the Chicago hockey team, an unoffi¬cial outfit composed of men all theway from graduates to freshmen,overcame the Chicago Eagles 7-3 onthe North Stands rink last night. Allof the Maroon scoring was done bytwo players: Bill Randall and CraigMclvor, who tallied four and threegoals respectively.At the end of the first period, Chi¬cago was out in front, having led allthe way by a 4-2 score. The Ma¬roons kept the puck in their oppo¬nents’ territory most of the timeduring t’ue first few moments of thesecond sessioity but were unable todrive it home largely because of thefine playing of the-Eagles’ goalie,Smith, who made numerous spectac¬ular saves from all angiC3.

Chicagohas good men in nearly every event,but a relay meet requires three orfour men in each, and since the teamwith the best average wins, the lastman is just as important as the first.And until now a grand total of fourmen have won all Chicago’s points inthe 440,880, mile, and two-mile, whilenone of the other events are over¬manned.Planning to “shoot his wad” in themiddle distances Merriam is enteringAbrahamson, Powell, and Merriam,the best trio of milers to representChicago in many years in the mileteam race. They should all run about4:30, and though both of the otherteams are strong in this event, theymight pull an upset. They will bejoined by Herschel in the two-mile re¬lay, which ought to be another goodrace. The two-mile team race andthe mile relay will practically bydefault, since this leaves only oneregular two-miler and no real quar-ter-miler.Draft Remy MeyerRemy Meyer has been drafted fromthe basketball team to run the highhurdle relay with Wasem, Ray, andParsons, while Wasem, Ray, Daven¬port, and Morton form the low hur¬dle team, making two pretty respect¬able outfits. In the pole vault Da¬vidson should continue to better 13’,and though Wisconsin’s Padway willundoubtedly go higher, Chicago mighttake the event if Cassels and Eric-son are in form. In the high jump,Chicago has two potential six-footjumpers in Mafit and Ray, whileCassius should not lower the aver¬age too far.Anything can happen in the shotput, since Hugh Rendleman has asore arm and Hamity and Fink aregoing to compete without havingworked out at all this year. But Chi¬cago should take the broad jump,with Davenport, Ray, and Wasemgood for a better than 21’ average.In the sprint, Davenport and Hirschwill be supplemented by either Rayor W"asem.
