Bull Session♦ ♦ *By DANIEL GAUSS ittoroonVol. 39, No. 98. Z-149 THE DAILY MAROON, TUESDAY, APRIL 25, 1939 Price Three CentsAlexander WoollcottLectures on JournalismSocialized Medicinefirst of tiro student ar-presenting views pro and eon onf},f topic of Socialized Medicine. The(irticle favoring Socialized Medicineivill appear tomorroiv.Bv Socialized Medicine one mightmta'n ownership of medicine by ei¬ther the different states or by the fed-eial government. Since no sane manwould contemplate turning the com-plicattd medical practice over to thepoliticians of the different states, cer¬tainly by Socialized Medicine sanepeople mean ownership by the feder¬al government. Although the presentsystem of distributing medical g(wdsmust be supplemented. SocializedMedicine is poor change because thequality of medical practice will di¬minish and because Socialized Medi¬cine is incompatible with the Ameri¬can political system.« « «In the first place, the quality ofmedical practice will diminish becausethe incentive for physicians to dogood work will be lessened. For in¬stance, physicians will not feel itnecessary to make a special effort toplease their patients because, beingon a salary, not only will their liveli-ho(Hl he assured, but also becausethey will know that tenure of service,rather than quality of work will bethe primary basis for promotion.Secondly, the quality of medicalservice will go down because of thetechnical methotls essential to Social-izt<l Medicine of handling the pa¬tients. The large public clinic, whichunder this system would be thesource of all medical aid, has beenattacked by Dr. Wingate M. Johnsonin the Atlantic Monthly of March,I'.t.ll as an attempt to manufacturepatients out of a hospital just theway Chevrolets come out of the Gen¬eral Motors plant. Certainly in thepublic clinic the personal friendshipbetween physician ami patient, a fac¬tor which is more and more, with thedevelopment of modern psychiatry,lH‘ing considered invaluable in medi¬cal treatment, will be substantiallydecrease<l.* « «Furthermore, Dr. Wingate goes onto say that the giant clinics are notnie(k*<l, for, even today, a generalpractitioner can handle from 80 to 90per c<‘nt of all ailments.Even though all the.se are chargesenough against Socialize<l Meilicine,let us consider this in the light ofpolitics. Remembering that all theabove is true even if we elect asmedical administrator a perfectlygood, virtuous person—the type ofadministrative genius we are accus-tome<l to electing; imagine whatwould happen if, in this age of rack¬ets, fascism, and “strong men,” wemade a mistake and elected a “notttK) honest type of man.”* * *In the system of Socialized Me<li-cine there would be absolutely noth¬ing to stop a “not too honest type ofman” from exerting all sorts of sub-vt.^; .fM* influences on our medicalschools; for does he not employ theirgraduates? Moreover, there would benothing to gpiarantee that physicianswho published theories contrary totho.se of the state, or physicians whooven ha<l the courage to attack polit¬ical views of the state, would not be<iismissed for “inefficiency.”« * «Thirdly, the government could co¬erce physicians into spreading polit¬ical propaganda via the clinics andthe hospitals.In the fourth place, it is not at allbard to imagine a government whichcontrolled the distribution of themeriical goods of its people, refusingto give medical aid to its opponents.And these are not all, for there arecountless ways an unethical govern-nient could ruthlessly inflict pain onthe American people if it'controlledme<licine. But despite the clamoringI^or totalitarianism by the radicals,the prospect of Socialized Medicinein America is dim, for the vast ma¬jority of physicians, unwilling to giveup their professional liberty, can beto effectively block anyconstitutional amendment, somethingw’hich would be necessary before So¬cialized Medicine could be put intopractice.Since the many unbearable falla¬cies in Socialized Medicine are clear,why not correct the present evils witha simple, easily operated system ofvoluntary health insura^e. DA WorkshopPresents GhostsTomorrowNightBetty Ann Evans PlaysMrs. Alving in Ibsen’sSensational Drama.Tickets are on sale today in Man-del Corridor for the first productionof the DA Workshop. Ibsen's“Ghosts” will be presented in theReynolds Theatre tomorrow evening.A press preview will be given to¬night.The ticket sale has been proceedingat an unprecedented rate and thereare only a limited number of ticketsleft. The admission price is 20 cents.With the production of “Ghosts” bythe Workshop, a new chapter will bewritten in the history of Universitydramatics. Since Ibsen wrote“Ghosts,” it has received more blowsfrom the censor’s pen than any othermodern drama. However, after yearsof performances by outstanding ac¬tresses, “Ghosts” at last is performedin the larger cities without protestsfrom the “ladies aids” and the “peaceand purity” leagues. This change hasbeen due largely to the courage oftop ranking actresses in playing theleading role of Mrs. Alving. Nazimovawas the last woman to bring “Ghosts”to the stage.Evans Has LeadBetty Ann Evans, sophomore S.S.Tenacity sensation and member ofSigma, will play the part of Mrs. Al¬ving in the Workshop production, andwill attempt a characterization thatusually only the most experienced ac¬tresses try.Richard Himmel who plays the dif¬ficult role of Oswald Alving is an ex¬perienced DA’er though only a fresh¬man. Himmel appeared in the New¬comers Bill, Mirror and was a co¬author of the famed Mirror skit, “Lit¬tle Girl A Freud.”Two other freshmen in the cast,Dorothy Ganssle and Pierce Atwater,have the roles of Regina Engstrandand Jacob Engstrand. Ganssle playedin the Newcomer’s Bill and Atwaterwas in both the Newcomer’s Bill andMirror. Robert Cohn, a sophomoreand member of Mirror Cast has therole of Pastor Manders.Friars ShowBest in YearsPicturesque with its Mexican stagesets, spectacular in its original cos¬tuming and choruses, the 1939 editionof Blackfriars, “Love Over the Line,”opened Friday night to a responsiveand appreciative audience which filledMandel Hall to capacity. Concurrentwith the opening day of the show wasthe final judging of the MustacheRace which was won by Psi U favor¬ite, Jim Nash.The consensus of opinion amongBlackfriars alumni and critics con¬firmed the prediction that this year’sshow would be the best in the lastseveral years. Cecil Smith, Tribunecritic, commenting in his article, saidit was the best Friar show he hadever seen. Nelson Fuqua, perennialBlackf riar, stated that it was the bestproduction since “Plastered in Paris”in 1927. Aside from some spotty tech¬nical work, the show approached thefinesse which marks a professionalopening. It will be presented bothnext Friday and Saturday eveningand at a matinee on Saturday after¬noon.Traditionally on the same day thatthe show opens, the crowning of JimNash as mustache king climaxed atw’o week period of mustache cultureundertaken by hardy senior men. Nashwas awarded the coveted title at noonin the circle when he emerged thevictor over the other two finalists, EdBergman and Hal Bondhus. Brad ofthe Reynolds Club Barber Shop anda pseudo bearded lady who turned outto be the friar peanut vendor, FrankMeyers, did the judging. Nash re¬ceived a gold loving cup and his namenow appears on the mustache raceplacque in the barber shop. After be¬ing awarded the winner, Nash and hisfriends went wading in the BotanyPond. B&G MurdersDefenselessCampusitesBuildings and Grounds, on one ofits periodic efficiency jags, slaughter¬ed a dozen or so of Cobb hall’s resi¬dent pigeons yesterday, using, withMachiavellian counning, poisoned pea¬nuts.The pigeon population being whatit is, B and G’s gesture toward clean¬liness might have gone unnoticed ex¬cept that a streak of exhibitionismcaused it to pick high noon for themassacre.Professor A. Eustace Haydon ofthe Divinity School, a sort of localSt. Francis of Assisi, is pretty sadabout the whole thing, feeling thatalthough messy, pigeons are decora¬tive.Besides, he says, it creates an ethi¬cal problem—whether, on the onehand, to fatten more of the birds forwhat would probably only mean even¬tual violent death, or whether, on theother, to let them shift for them¬selves.Anyway, he hasn’t yet thrown awayhis bag of pigeon feed, and he stillhas peanuts for the squirrels onwhom the ax has not yet fallen.Students EnterWork in FiskePoetry ContestWith the deadline for entries forthe John Billings Fiske Poetry Prizebeing May 1, a few score of campuspoets will, as a result, be putting thefinishing touches to their works. Theprize, $100, is open to students in anyschool or college of the Universityexcepting previous winners of theprize.There is good reason for eliminat¬ing previous winners, for, with fewexceptions, they have gone on togreener fields. Of the fifteen victors,six have published volumes of poetry.Of these six three have alreadyachieved enviable literary reputations:Elizabeth Madox Roberts, George HillDillon, and Sterling North. ElizabethMadox Roberts, winner in 1921, had arecent best seller in “Black Is My TrueLove’s Hair,” although an earlierbook, “Time of Man” is said to begreater and a truly significant addi¬tion to American literature. GeorgeHill Dillon, now editor of PoetryMagazine, often attended meetingsof the now defunct Poetry Club, andwon the prize in 1925. He has pub¬lished two volumes of verse, “Boy inthe Wind” and “Flowering Storm,”and has collaborated with Edna St.Vincent Millay. Sterling North, vic¬tor in 1926, is literary editor of theChicago Daily News and has writtena novel, “Ploughing on Sunday.” Thewinner in 1922 and 1923 (prior to theruling that previous winners could notcompete) was Bertha Ten EychJames who is now Mrs. Daniel Cat-ton Rich, wife of the director of theArt Institute. She has published twovolumes of verse.On four occasions no prize has beenawarded, in 1924, 1928, 1932, and1938. The judges, some of whomhave been previous prize winners, aredetermined to reward only top-notchpoetry, and so far they have beensuccessful. As a result Fiske prizewinners stand head and shouldersover traditional college poetry prizewinners.More recent victors are not yetwell-known literary figures as yet,but this does not necessarily indicatepaucity of talent. It takes time toforge ahead, and the Fiske prize isa relatively recent award.The prize-winning poems varygreatly in subject, form, and style.There is drama: “Lyrical Passagesfrom a Play Entitled Kleis,” by Pris¬cilla Elmer won in 1935. F'ree verseis used in most of the poems, butThomas Howell’s “Sonnets” won in1936. The offerings vary in lengthbut most of them are cycles includ¬ing several related poems ratherthan one short poem.Possible contributors to this year’scontest are Ann Orvis, of Pulse fame;David Sachs, the youngest contrib¬utor to Poetry Magazine; WilliamEarle, editor of the Daily Maroonliterary supplement; Macha Rosen-(Continued on page 2) Collegium MusicumPresents BachCantatas SundayIn the fourth public concert sinceits founding last fall, the CollegiumMusicum is presenting two Bach can¬tatas Sunday evening at 8:15 inJoseph Bond Chapel.

Noted Author to Speakat Mandel Beginning:May 3.With 30 years of experience as ajournalist behind him, AlexanderWoollcott will “throw some light up¬on the fascination, the freedom andthe increasing impotence of thepress,” in six lectures on journalism,beginning Wednesday, May 3, and andcontinuing May 5, 10, 12, 16 and 19.Woollcott’s talks are scheduled for8:30 in Leon Mandel hall. Series tick¬ets are free of charge, and may be ob¬tained at the Information Office be¬ginning Friday.

He has been dramatic critic ofthree New York papers, the Times,the Herald, and the World.“AUF Journalism”During the World War, he spenttw'o years as an enlisted man in theAEF, including one year on the edi¬torial council of “The Stars andStripes,” the AEF’s paper.For two years, he appeared on theradio as the Town Crier. At one timeduring that period. Professor T. V.Smith achieved minor fame becausehe had a drawl enough like Wooll¬cott’s so that they were frequentlymistaken for each other. Smith madea joint appearance with Woollcott onthe Town Crier program, and the tworead a scene from Julius Caesar.“While Rome Burns”In addition to writing a number ofbooks, including the best-sellers,“While Rome Burns” and the twoWoollcott Readers, Woollcott has con¬tributed prolifically to maga3;iDes.,andnewspapers.He spoke at the University in 1936,talking extemporaneously to an au¬dience that packed Mandel hall.During his stay, Woollcott willprobably meet with private campusgroups, although no definite appoint¬ments have as yet been made.Discuss Co-opsat ConferenceActing to promote greater unityamong cooperative student groups,representatives of university cooper¬atives attended the Mid-West studentcooperative conference at Hull housethis week end.

WilliamGrody, Ernest Leiser, David Martin, AliceMeyer, Robert Sedlak, Charles O’DonnellBUSINESS ASSOCIATESRichard Caple, Richard Glasser, RolandRichman, David Salzberg,Harry ToppingNight Editor: Ernest LeiserTwo AnswersTwo important questions re¬garding the tuition changeshave been answered by Presi¬dent Hutchins. The first askswhether the privilege of courseauditing without extra assess¬ments will be continued. Thesecond seeks to find out wheth¬er the tuition changes are stillin a flexible state, open to revi¬sion by student action.The first question is answeredwith an unequivocal yes. Of thesecond, it can at least be saidthat the extra fees were still ina fluid state as recently as lastThursday, when charges for ex¬tra courses. College comprehen-sives without benefit of courseregistration, and unregisteredcourses for divisional compre-hensives were changed to a uni¬form $15 level.Any change which decreasesthe fees for extra courses is adesirable one, but there is noaltruistic change of principle be¬hind this revision. The sameamount of money, approximate¬ly $50,000, is still expected fromthe extra assessment for cour¬ses, and the shift of emphasison to the divisional level doesnot mean that the administra¬tion’s principle has changed.That principle states, “Wecharge for services rendered,”and conveniently forgets to men¬tion the many University stu¬dents who, as rational humanbeings, have decided that theynever want to use a Universitygymnasium, or go near the Un¬iversity’s health service. Thefact that they do not protestpaying the same fees paid bystudents who use them constant¬ly testifies to the fact that theydo not subscribe to this prin¬ciple; they are willing to pay asmall fee so that the studentswho want to use all the Univer¬sity’s facilities will not have topay a high fee. The same feel¬ing applies to educational facil¬ities, the feefing that all stu¬dents would prefer to pay asmall fee so that those who takefull advantage of their opportu¬nity to learn will not have to betaxed heavily.Two more questions on theeffects of the tuition situationare nearing an answer. For sev¬eral weeks undergraduates havetimidly supposed that they werealone in opposition to the chang¬es, thinking that graduate stu¬dents never took more thanthree courses. Now the risinggraduate interest and represen¬tation on the student commit¬tee to protest the changes isproving that graduates alsowant tax-free opportunity totake all that they can manage.The second is the question ofthe lower income groups. Mem- “Internal Weakness ThreatTo America”--Rockefellerbers of the administration saythat they prefer the presentsystem. Members of the commit¬tee say that they do not, andare conducting a survey of NYAstudents to find out.When all these questions areanswered, the most importantone still remains. Is the Univer¬sity going to continue to raisefees when it feels that it can,or will the success of its endow¬ment drive, supposed to showresults in a few years, induce itto drop fees back to the lowestpossible level? If it reveals thatplans to raise student fees area temporary stop-gap only,to be removed as soon as possiblethere will be more possibilitythat students will accept themwillingly.TravellingBazaarThough We Note With Dismaythe trend toward specialization, wecouldn’t help but be impressed by thejob offer which reached the Maroonoffice yesterday. Opportunity is knock¬ing for anyone who will call Oakland5880. A local Goldfish Corporation isall set to employ an ambitious, well-educated young college student whohas six or seven weeks to spare inthe near future. Pay includes a de¬cent salary, travelling expenses, andan unlimited supply of goldfish forswallowing purposes.We only hope that the public, ner¬vous and tense after six weeks ofwar scare, w’ill refuse to be high-pressured into a fish-swallowing fren¬zy as it was hoodwinked by jitter-bugging and charm bracelets. Theonly salvation for the University liesin the fact that if the President couldturn down an engineering school, hewon’t easily be cajoled into establish¬ing a Preparatory School for YoungGoldfish Enthusiasts.Dartmouth Transfer, Psi UJim Nash stole the mustache racefrom under the noses of cocky Chi¬cago bigwigs last Friday with a cropwhich would awe a Fuller brush man.So sturdy was the crop of Nashbristles that even an electric razoreventually gave up in despair. Nash,however, finally managed to whittlethe mustache down from its villain¬like proportions to a neat small patch.With a lock of hair over his left eye,he became the second Fuehrer a laHitler in the Great Fraternity.

Rockefel¬ler did not discuss the question offascism, which his sponsors withouthis knowledge had added to the titleof the discussion.Prophets^ KingsLive Again InChamberlin BookAlthough prophets and kings havebeen dead for too many centuries tobe accepted as anything but legend bymost of us, there are many rich,human stories behind the religiousteachings in the Old Testament.Georgia L. Chamberlin, in her book“Making the Bible Live” brings thosesame prophets and kings to lifelife again.There were political and social cri¬ses in those days which were just asvital and overwhelming to the peoplewho lived then as the ones of todayare to us. Miss Chamberlin recon¬structs the life of the times as back¬ground for the prophecies and proph¬et such as Hosea, Amos, and Isaiah,explaining these men and their ut¬terances psychologically — what themen meant by their fiery words andhow their symbolism might have beeninterpreted by the people of the time.Moral ValuesMiss Chamberlin not only discussesthe values of these teachings to thepeople of that era, but also theirvalue to those of today, besides howthey may be used in modern religiouseducation. The moral principles ofyesterday apply as much to the pres¬ent time as they did in the past.Affiliated with the University since1892, when the Harpers brought herhere. Miss Chamberlin studied withShaler Matthews, grand old man ofthe Divinity School, for many years.From 1890 to 1935 she was secretaryof the American Institute of SacredLiterature, a part of the University.A colorful figure. Miss Chamberlinworked with the University Pressfrom 1908 until 1923, promoting thesale of sacred literature. Until 1923she was an instructor at the down¬town college. In addition to workingwith Shaler Matthews, she alsoworked with Dr. Wm. Harper andErnest Burton in Semantics.Recently, Miss Chamberlin was ahouse guest of Mrs. Harper, whosefriend she has been since long beforeshe came to the University.Student ForumHolds Banquet *Count Alfred Korzybski, head ofthe Institute, of General Semanticswill speak before a Student Forumbanquet, open to the campus, in theCoffee Shop Friday evening, April28, at 6:00. Korzybski, author of“Science and Sanity”, will give a onehour talk on the subject of generalsemantics, followed by a period forwritten questions.The Institute of General Semanticsat 1330 East 56 street was foundedin 1938 with an endowment fromCornelius Crane for the purpose ofteaching semantics to educators andto cure certain types of maladjust¬ment through the use of general se¬mantics.The banquet is styled by the Forumas the climax to a year of hard workin which it has put on over 150 pro¬grams for a variety of audiences inChicago and the Middle West.Tickets at 55 cents may be obtainedfrom Pierre Palmer, Hitchcock Hallor at the Information Desk.In the Big Ten Debate tournamentheld over the weekend at Northwest¬ern, Student Forum contestants,Marshall Hanley, Joe Sondheimer,James Engle and Maurice Reishtein,won two out of eight matches, an im¬provement over last year when Chi¬cago won but one match. Workers Ask QuestionsFollowing Rockefeller’s 20-minutetalk came a question period of whichvarious advocates of technocracy,Henry Georgism, and Marxism, tookadvantage to speak themselves. Inanswer to a defiant question, “WhoOwns America?” Rockefeller explainedthe way in which the nation is jointlyowned by millions of its citizens.Anxious for experience on the pub¬lic platform. Rockefeller has givenseveral such talks in Chicago thisseason. Recently he has spoken atThe Hobo College, The WestsideWorkers’ Forum, and before severalchurch groups. Next Saturday eve¬ning he will speak over the radio forThe Mont Parnasses Forum on thequestion of pump priming.SAE Revives;Initiate SixSigma Alpha Epsilon which wentoff campus in 1935 initiated six menat their National headquarters in theLavere Memorial Tempel, Evanston,Saturday afternoon to restart theUniversity chapter.Those initiated were John Howen-stein, Oklahoma City; Robert Mason,Muskegan, Michigan; David Feyler,Cincinnatti; Warren Maynes, Middle-ton, Massachusetts; Carl Pritchell,Niantic, Illinois; and Dale Scott,Oklahoma City.

This adjunct to Billingscan care for 68 children, 16 of whomare from 14 to 21 years of age.Patients are operated on in the hos¬pital. and as soon as they have suffi¬ciently recovered, may be sent to theCountry Home for Crippled Children.This home, which was recently do¬nated to the university, is located inPrince Crossing, West Chicago. Mostof the children are under the care ofthe hospital for a number of years,since operation frequently does notcure the patient, and a series mustbe undergone before he has complete¬ly recovered. Occasionally a childdoes not return home for three orfour years. During this time he al¬ternates between the hospital and theCountry Home.Most Cases Curable.\11 types of cases are treated, andmost of them are either entirely orpartially curable. The majority ofchildren operated on are either con¬genitally crippled, or crippled byautomobile accidents or by tubercu¬losis of the spine or infantile paral¬ysis. Often the children get on theirfeet after several years, and are thenconfronted with the question of whatto do after they leave the care of thehospital. This problem is most acute Billingsbetween the ages of 14 to 21.The Board of Education now pro¬vides teachers for the educational pro¬gram. The staff has been confrontedwith the problem of spending a yearcuring a patient and then having toturn him out of the hospital a uselessmember of society, with little chanceof procuring employment. The stateprovides no vocational guidance planfor a destitute and crippled child, al¬though it requires that he conform toeducational laws of school attend¬ance, if possible, until he is 16 yearsold.The medical staff of the hospital isnow trying to devise a vocationalguidance plan. Under the direction ofDr. Sleight, professor of psychiatry,a program is being devised which willinclude intelligence tests, interest andaptitude tests, and tests of physicaland intellectual ability. These willprovide a recomendation on the basisof which social workers or vocationalcounselors may make workable plans,and arrange for the necessary train¬ing.Ellis Co-op OperatesDuring SummerThe Ellis Student Club has decidedto stay open during the Summer quar¬ter. According to Bob Stokely, thework manager, the organization willbe run on a consumer co-operativebasis. Because it was thought thata majority of the members over thesummer will not be interested inworking, the co-op has decided to em¬ploy outside help. Stokely says thatthe co-operative will appreciate hear¬ing from anyone who is interestedin joining for next quarter so that itcan anticipate the size of the sum¬mer membership.IT'S TENNISTlMEl!And it's time to get a new racket, with plenty ofzip to make things lively for your friendly rival.Here are some fine values that will improve yourgame and moke you glad you came."Beasley". . . .

They arescheduled to meet Notre Dame heretomorrow in a practice tilt before thetwo conference games with IndianaFriday and Saturday.The first game at Lafayette startedoff well, as Art Lopatka mowed downthe Boilermakers in order in the firstinning, but he got into real hot wat¬er in the second frame, when wild¬ness, three hits, and several question¬able decisions combined to give Pur¬due a commanding five run lead,which they never relinquished.Mackiewicz, HitsMackiewicz, Purdue cleanup man,was first up, and finally managed toget a hit after being, as Marooncatcher Marty Levit put it, “struckout three times.” Two free tickets tofirst and a pair of bingles gave theBlack and Gold four runs, and, to topit all off, Denny Cowan, Chicagoshortstop, playing his first Big Tengame, dropped what looked like aneasy pop fly and allowed another tal¬ly to cross the plate.But Coach Kyle Anderson’s charg¬es weren’t down for the count yet;they came back with one run in thethird on two bases on balls and a hitby right fielder Frank Feeney. The Irally was squelched, however, when jcc^captain Remy Meyer grounded out Iwith men on second and third and !two down. jPurdue went down one, two, three,in their half of the third, but Chica¬ go was out for blood, as Frank Me-Cracken worked Bailey, Purdue pitch¬er, for a pass, and Lopatka lined aclean double to right center to scorehim. Cowan brought Lopatka homewith a Texas leaguer to right whichrolled past the fielder.5-3 Till EighthThe score remained 5-3 until theeighth, when Purdue really got toArt, who by this time was thor¬oughly disgusted, both with himselfand with the umpires, one of whomis a member of the faculty down atLafayette. The Black and Gold slug¬gers nicked Art for three hits anda walk one right after the other, andbrought their total up to eight runsto clinch the game, 8-3.In the second tilt, which did notget under way until the sun was areal problem to the respective leftfielders, was nip and tuck all the way,but Purdue nosed out the Midway-men, 2-1. Chicago got off to an earlylead as Gramer walked, stole second,and came home on Meyer’s single.Maroon hurler Bob Reynolds pitchedno-hit ball for five innings, but War-go, his rival on the mound, won hisown ball game with two timely hits,one in the sixth and another in theseventh frame.The Maroons had a man on secondwith only one down in the last inning,but Bob Brinker, pinch hitting forReynolds, missed the hit and run sig¬nal, and the chance was lost.omen’s Net MeetBecause of the inclement weatherlast week, there has been a delayin registration for the Racket Clubtennis tournament. Therefore, regis¬tration instead of closing April 21 as j SquadOpens SeasonWith 5-1 WinPlaying their first match of theseason last Saturday the “B” tennissquad administered a decisive defeatto the North Central netmen. Win¬ning 5-1, the Maroon players won allthe singles and dropped only onedoubles match. The match was playedin the Fieldhouse because the varsitycourts were too wet for competition.First points for “our side” weregarnered when Bob Reynolds in thenumber one berth stopped his oppo¬nent, 6-1, 6-4. In a more strenuousmatch that went to three sets veteranDick Norian took a love set awayfrom the North Central man aftersplitting the first two frames; score:6-1, 6-8, 6-0.Johnny Stevens added his matchresult to the growing Maroon scorewith a straight set win, and Koganblanked his man, 6-0, 6-2, to concludethe cleanup in the singles division.The first and only setback of the daycame when the first Maroon tandemthat paired Norian with Reynoldsdropped a tough decision to a scrap¬py North central doubles team witha 7-5, 10-8 score. The second doublescombination of Daniels and Cranewon the last event of the scheduledmatches when their tourney went tothree sets before being won by theChicago men.previously announced, will remainopen this week for those girls whoare still anvious to participate.Tournament play will definitely be¬gin Monday, May 1. So far aboutfifteen girls have signed up on thebulletin board in the big gym in IdaNoyes Hall and there is promise thatit will turn out to be a successfulevent. Western StateDowns Ma roonThinclads, 64-6^By winning the last event of themeet Western State of Kalamazoo de¬feated the Maroon thinclads 64-62.The 220 yard low hurdles was thedeciding race and when Wasem andParsons finished second and third, re¬spectively, the meet was lost.Because of a wet track many of thetimes were slower than those madelast week against De Kalb. After run¬ning a close second in a 22.9 220 yarddash last week Davenport came insecond again in a slower race againstKalamazoo. Even Cassels, thoughwinning in the pole vault, could notget up any higher than 12 feet 6inches, a full foot lower than theheight he made in the previous meet.Rendleman W’ins TwiceRendleman repeated in the shot putwith a throw just a few inches lessthan his winning distance last week.He also won the discus throw bytossing the platter 133 feet 9 inches.Herschel, placed third in the javelinthrow.Powell won the 440 and placed be¬hind Merriam in the 880.
