Culp immediately went to thedorms and found instead 12 fresh¬men and Chuck Percy talking in oneof the freshman’s rooms. Culp askedif they were talking alamt rushing,to which Percy replied affirmatively.Yesterday Culp suomitted his evi¬dence to Dean Randall, who made thetinal decision. Randall’s complete de¬cision was that eight of the men whowere in the room would not be able topledge Alpha Delt until June. Theywere “sewed up’’ Culp said. Thesemen, however, may pledge any otherhouse and Alpha Delt may pledge anyother men.Four of the men will be able topledge. Hecause Dick Philbrick roomswith a fraternity man, the rushingrules do not apply to him; thereforehe may pledge. Lindsay Leach andDave Smith are legacies and wouldhave pledge anyway. Randall thoughtthis sutlicient to permit them topledge. Bob Thompson, because herooms with Leach, may also pledge to¬day.Those men who may not pledge areJohn Angelo, Richard Blakeslee, Mil-ton Robinson, Jr., Ashton Roberts,Richard Reed, William Oostenburg,George Drake, and David Durkee.Hud Linden, AD Phi president,had nothing to say on the course thatthe fraternity would follow. The menwho were “.sewed up’’ and not able topledge, claim that this has unitedthem strongly and that they will con¬tinue to remain together until theycan pledge in June. . . . Dean Cracka DownNo Flowers AtSaiidC FormalRenegades FromI tela House FormLuncheon ClubThe 12 inUdlects who have forsak¬en the Beta bonds will meet this noonin the Cloister Club for the maidenmeeting of a luncheon club tentativelylitksl the Rump Club. The group thatbecame inactive yesterday has sincebeen bolstered by the addition of Wal¬ter Hippie ami Nels Fuqua. Mr. Fu-(|ua today resigned all his connec¬tions with Beta Theta Pi and can¬celled his financial subscription andexpects lo hold the position of adviserto the club. The Rumps are expectingat least one more recruit from theranks of Beta in the near future. Of¬ficial recognition of the group as acampus organization is being soughtbut no decision has been rendere<lby the Dean’s office. There are, how¬ever, no University laws to preventthe club from being recognized.Although it is of too recent birthto have definite laws, the group ex-|)ects to admit to membership gradu¬ate students and even members ofother fraternities. The only state¬ment made by I-F head Johnny Culpon the situation was that “It removesan element of revolution and changefrom the fraternity system that wasvery unhealthy.”G.A.

President Hutchins’ dis¬cussion of “Undergraduate Life” to¬day at 12 will probably fill MandelHall up to the chandeliers. Once be¬fore Hutchins addressed the studentbody in the same manner. It was fouryears ago when the proposed mergerof Northwestern and Chicago calledfor an explanation.Since the topic under considerationconcerns undergraduates a maximumnumber of the un-bachelored shouldbe present. This speech is the firstof an unembarrassed pi'obing into thehabits of the University’s lesser half.Every month the Board of Trusteeshas a topic to which it devotes twohours of its time; the next topic, tobe discussed in February, is the Four-Year and Two-Year College and Un¬dergraduate Life in general. Hutch¬ins’ address will undoubtedly givesome idea of undergraduate life asHutchins thinks it ought to be.May Explain FootballIncidently Hutchins may explainand justify the abolition of football.It has long been stated that Hutchinsloves the student body although in allofficial documents stemming from hisoffice he deplores the fact that the Uni¬versity is coming to rely more andmore on student fees. To quote the“State of the University,” September,1939, “Dependance on student fees, ifcarried far enough, may mean subserv¬ience to the whims of students andtheir parents. A university.. .whichmust determine its policies in thelight of what students ai'e assumed towant rather than what they shouldhave is much worse off than if it hadto please a legislature.”But even so Hutchins is said to lovethe students, according to traditionand Harpers Magazine, much moi’ethan he loves his faculty. Today’sspeech, lasting according to His prom¬ise less than forty-five minutes, mayby chance throw some light on whatHe thinks of the University in generaland undergraduates in particular.Physics LabThere are several vacancies inthe Physics 106 laboratory sectionwhich meets at 1:30. Studentswhose petitions for this coursehave been denied should see Dr.Harvey Lemon about registration.ResponsibilityForWarIs Partly AmericansBy HART WURZBURG“America shares in the responsi¬bility for the condition of Europeanaffairs at the present time. The dis¬astrous foreign policy pursued by theUnited States in the 1920’s will cometo be recognized by later historiansas an important cause for the pres¬ent war.”United StatesRegarding the chances of theUnited States’ being drawn into thissecond “30 year war,” QuincyWright, professor of InternationalLaw, public opinion might demandthat we go in if England and Francewere losing. He went on to say thatboth the Allies and Germany areafraid to attempt suicidal offensivesover the Maginot or Siegfried lines.Though the Allies are content to waitand blockade, Germany may find itnecessary to start an offensive in thespring.Wright went on to explain that ac¬tual fighting might take place in Bel¬gium or in Rumania and that itmight last several years. The Alliescould get supplies and troops to anyof their theaters of war now thatthe Turkish straits are opened to them, because of the agreement oflast fall.Finnish Defensive“Russia,” he said, in explanationof the Finnish offensive, may havefeared a joint attack from the Alliesand Germany which is what Ger¬many desired after the Polish con¬quest was completed.” In further ex¬planation he stated that Russia de¬sired certain strategic points on eachside of the gulf of Finland to secureLeningrad from attack.“The prestige of Russia has suf¬fered badly in the past few weeks.She has probably gone too far toback down, and therefore might wel¬come German aid in Finland,” de¬clared Wright. Up until now Russiahas shied away from a full alliancewith Germany, feeling that Germanywas stopped in the east so long asshe had her hands full in the west.However, Russia’s continuous re¬verses in Finland may have madeRussia feel the need for German aid.Move Theater“German assistance to Russiamight move the theater of warfare tothe Scandinavian peninsula.

Thecontract extends for five years.Reached by a Daily Maroon report¬er last night, Shaughnessy expressed“regret at leaving the University” butadded that “intercollegiate football ismy first love and I consider myselffortunate to be affiliated with Stan¬ford.”It was often rumored, and laterconfirmed, that on several occasionsCoach Shaughnessy had been offeredpositions at other universities duringhis seven-year reign at Chicago. How¬ever, “Shag” preferred to stay at Chi¬cago despite his losing teams becausehe believed in the University’s athleticpolicy.With the dropping of intercollegiatefootball, however, he was faced withthe prospect of directing his atten¬tions towards intramural football orfinding a position elsewhere.Shaughnessy had been in confer¬ence with Stanford officials for sever¬al days on his return to Chicago fromLos Angeles where he attended a con¬ference of football coaches. Follow¬ing his return to the Midway he wasin contact with Emery T. Filbey, vice-president of the University, presum¬ably in an attempt to withdraw fromthe University faculty so that hecaliber than we were able to offei’.”Commenting on the situation, T.Nelson Metcalf, director of athletics,said, “We are soi’ry to lose CoachShaughnessy because he was an out¬standing member of our department.However, his job is coaching foot¬ball, which he shall be able to do ata school which affords better footballcaliber than we were able to offer.”Student Forum SetsSpeaking DateStudent Forum members will par¬ticipate in two speaking engagementstoday.

Rubins, John Stevens,Hart Wurzburg, Marian Castleman, Ernest LeiserNight Editor: Ernest LeiserDesign for LivingFor the six years that Beta Theta Pi wascontent to exist as an atypical organizationaloof from other fraternity movements it flour¬ished. When its uniqueness made it so notablethat it began to be considered as a model forother chapters, eleven of the brothers decidedto leave.They left because for them to become theexemplary fraternity their national organiza¬tion wants to make of them would require, theythought, sacrifice of their individuality. Thenational trustees insist that the Chicago Betasbecome models for a well-rounded modern fra¬ternity system. Yet the Betas were outstand¬ing here principally because they w'ere no partof any system. Plenty of other fraternitiesboast of promoting well-rounded lives; evenmost of the clubs were founded originally tofurther a community of intellectual interests.Only the Betas made a great show of beingdifferent.The Beta split brings up an old question ofwhether or not the fraternity system works toregiment individuals. Previously the Betaswere held up as the great example of an indi¬vidual fraternity. But then, of course, theyw^ere really outside the system. If they canmake themselves effective within the systemonly by giving up their individuality, then thischalks up one point for those who say the fra¬ternity system regiments.The Facts of LifeEveryone who reads the World’s GreatestNewspaper must be aware of how many lead¬ing university presidents consider football anintegral part of undergraduate life. And who¬ever looked at Wednesday’s Daily News musthave seen Westbrook Pegler’s advice to theUniversity to cut down on its thinking.When Mr. Hutchins speaks to us this noonabout “Undergraduate Life” we do not expecthim to agree with these attitudes. Instead, weexpect to hear just what undergraduate lifethat stubbornly stresses thinking though itdoes not include football as an integral part is.Is it any different from college or graduatelife? We hope it is nothing so narrowly unreal¬istic as to be concerned only with classroomwork. Just how large a part does schoolworkactually play in undergraduate life? What arethe other parts of this life, and how importantare they? What are the roles of activities, ath¬letics, and social groups? What relation doesundergraduate life have to the rest of academicand practical living? How far is this Universityan example of what good undergraduate lifeshould be? What can be done to make it better?Not UnderhandedPetitioning the administration to restrictattendance to University members at theBrowder meeting is an underhanded attemptby the Daily Maroon to make the meeting afailure. Communists say. The Maroon wouldlike to reassure its readers that it has no evildesigns against the meeting. Its main interestin this affair is to prevent violence, even thoughthe campus police mfght be able to turn out insufficient force to subdue rioting.If it were not for the fact that outsidersmight come with the intention of being unrulyor of provoking a disturbance the Maroonwould not care who attended. But it is neces¬sary to keep the Communists from any dangerof becoming martyrs. By admitting only mem¬bers of the University the Communists canconvince potentially violent conservatives thatthey have no intention of bringing in outsidepropagandists. Furthermore, circulating thesepetitions disproves any possible charge thatall University students are trying to spreadCommunism. Traveling BazaarBy DICK HIMMELOn the day before pledging two stories broke whichwere just about powerful enough to upset the entirefraternity rushing. First the en masse walk-out of theintellects of the Beta house, followed by the ruling ofthe Dean’s office concerning .\d Phi.Actually .\d Phi was a test for the IF Council. IFcode violations have been flagrant this year and it wasprobably the iron hand of the administration on allthe fraternities rather than just on Alpha DeltJohnny Culp, IF head, attempted to avert troublethis year by trying to push through a looser set ofrushing rules. Culp said that it was the big four thatdefeated this plan. Now', of course, it is the big fra¬ternities mainly who are violating the rules.Dean Randall’s crack at Al) l*hi. in my opinion, wastoo heavy. Had it been a house less strong than AlphaDelt, it would be enough to ruin the organization. Asit now stands, however, there are eight men who won’tbe able to pledge until June, but there is no ruling thatthey may not be a pledge in everything but name. A I)Phi officers make no statements as to whether or notthis will be done. It is, howev'er, the most logical course.The eight men are bound more strongly together nowthan before this happened.Chuck Percy, Alpha Delta rushing head, had a rightbeing in the dorms, as he is an entry head. Yet he waswilling to admit he was rushing illegally. Had hedenied he was rushing IF had no case against them.But Ad Phis were honest about it and got the axe inthe end. It was an axe enforcing rushing; not an axeaimed with malice towards a particular fraternity.The Beta walk-out was a little more dramatic anda little more disastrous, perhaps. However, I am notin an impartial position to judge whether or not thechange is good or bad. The colorful part of Beta isgone. Time and money will decide whether half ahouse can function as effectively as a whole house. Itwill decide if there will be any more days like the oldone. One thing is certain, however, the nucleus of whatthe campus hailed as “the new’ fraternity” is gone.It w’ill be for some other house to break the ground.A Lighter VeinJohnny Culp maintains the dirty rushing storyabout Coyte isn’t true, because Coyte was working onthe subway when all this was supposed to happen.Culp’s story was very effective until he told me aboutthe time at the beginning of the year that a Phi Gaminvited him over to a rushing dinner. Now I’m not sosure. I don’t believe nobody!Phi P sis who have had little public rushing trouble,really have plenty. Their dog Bruce attacks ru.shees.He bit one. This is really trouble.PatterDean Randall wants to point out he doesn’t sputterwith wrath even when people say the I). .Maroon is theDean’s official organ. He sputters with mirth, of course.All I got to say is that somebody is getting theirDeans mixed, and I think it’s Leiser. . .Ruth Brody justgave back her pledge pin to Dan Barnes. She’s sohappy about it. The new Beta is thinking of doingsomething significant with it. I know what they cando . . .

What do you mean you likeme like that ?It Ain’t So ColdWith Shaughnessy, the ten thousand dollar a yearhandball coach gone to California, it leaves the uni¬versity not only without a football team, but withouta coach if we ever expect to have a team again in thenear future. Actually it is a good deal for Shag. Hedeserves better breaks than the ordeal by Midway fire.It’s so nice and peaceful in California. I wish 1 werein California. I wish I were anywhere but here, as amatter of fact.Courtesy of DarraghThe Burton-Judson dance which is to be held Jan¬uary 27, is already a sell-out. The “Girl I Left BehindMe” contest, in which the residents enter pictures oftheir hometown girls which are judged for pulchritudeby such connoisseurs as the artist Petty, is not to beheld this year. It has always been a publicity stunt,and the publicity is not needed, so - - . The publisherof the Courtier is heart-broken. That is his greatestbid for glory.Gail Grassick, the photogenic young blond freshmanfrom Fo.ster, is beginning to think of herself as a jinx.Tuesday afternoon she was in the Bursar’s office whenit was held-up, and the next day while shopping inField’s she saw a woman commit suicide, by fallinginto a show-case next to her from the seventh-floorinterior balcony.The newly-formed University Yacht Club showedpictures of the Bermuda Races on last Wednesdayafternoon. Nobody knew just what they were about,but luckily Dick Philbrick was familiar with them, orat least acted as if he were.Pierre Palmer, assisted by residents of Blake inhis rushing of Louise Landmann, sent them a box ofcandy. Now they all love him. Speaking of Blake,when Janet John.son’.s brother came down from Purdueto visit her, the whole hall started rushing him. IKNOW!

Pepper of Pennsylvania. WithPresident Hutchins introducing himto a large gathering in Mandel Halllast night, Pepper spoke on “TheMoral Responsibility of EducatedPersons in a Democracy.” Stressingthe points that education is individu¬al self-development, and that a de¬mocracy is a society in which thepeople governed are themselves thegovernors, he went on to express theimportance of religion and loyalty toGod in respect to the function of thestate.“There are two types of states: thegodless, or that whose philosophyholds God in the center. There is nomiddle way.” He cited .Adolf Hitleras an example of that first, and Ben¬jamin Franklin, George Washington,and Abraham Lincoln as typical ofthe second, along with the hiet thatthey were probably the three great¬est men this country has produced.In addition he mentione'd their traitsof character, which far overshad¬owed the things they did. Franklinwas great with his inventions, butimmortal because of his wisdom, hu¬mility, and faith in God. And so too was St. Francis, a symbol of thegood and righteous, loyal and a ser¬vant of God.Wright—(Continued from page one)sistance that they have given Fin¬land in the form of supplies hasproven invaluable.

However, the Naziswould have a hard time holding it.If this were to happen, the positionof the United States might be similarto the position of England duringthe Napoleonic Wars.

He slithers thru the howl¬ing gale, and digging himself an iglooin a deep drift, he settles down for theseige—but not from the Russians.This gentleman is trying to memorizeShakespeare’s “Comedy of Errors,” soimpelled by the futile Russian hordes.TragedyThere are tragedies aplenty.You’ll find them near and far.Such as losing one’s best woman.Or wrecking the family car.The losing of a fortuneThe result of speculations.Or the sorrow of the women,.\s war kill the men of nationsThe marital problems many.And crime turning cities rife.Or the slip of a banana peelAlmost resulting in a life.But the biggest one of all.Enough to crack the brain..,Is after you have run a mileAND THEN YOU MISS YOURTRAIN!THE STEAMSHOVEL(Digs up all the dirt)Among the Xmas presents (this iwas cut out last week) were: 1. HowieBrown giving Marylin Sill his Hi-Ypin. He sent it to her on a little dog(not a real one.) She was pleased andat last sight was seen wearing it; 2,Sandy Maremont’s gift of Pinocchio(the dummy) to Betty Gillet. Thefirst mentioned was a pin on a pup,while no. 2 was no pin, but a puppet.Double cross of the New Year, andno. 2 of the school year was performedrecently by a new accepter of a Hi-Ypin. She had not had her pin overlylong, when this girl asked, not thefellow whose pin she was wearing butanother fellow to the G.A.A. Hardlycricket, we think. Chap number onewas sport enough to offer his car tochap two, an innocent bystander, whorefused it, but is going to the dance.An over amorous PIayfester at thetryouts was so carried away by hopesand visions of kissing a girl on thestage, that when one came near himto talk to him, he firmly (in front ofGod and everybody) planted a kisson her cheek. An electric shock(caused by shuffling on the carpets)served to bring this young gent downto earth. He was horrified at hisdeed, done in a moment of absentmindedness. The man in questionswears it was accidental (the girlsays what?) and had he not beenshocked (electrically, not morally)he would have continued on hisway, unconscious of his act.Pip, pip.The Goon.

This weekmarks the end of the first half of thetime during which they are affection¬ately (?) known as “neophytes.” In¬cidentally, some of you fellow-suffer¬ers (and others) might find time todonate some of your affection to areal sufferer. Bob Friedrichs.Before the formal initiation, theneophytes must endure another weekduring which it is probable, yea,guaranteed, that you, innocent (?)neophyte, will acquire multos blackmarks.In case you don’t know, or haven’thad the experience of finding out,the neophytes are required to obeyall Hi-Y members between classes,anji after school, up to 5 o’clock.These black marks may be eradi¬cated by doing worthwhile schoolprojects for a time determined by thenumber of black marks one has tohis discredit. The two weeks of tor¬ture will be culminated by an initia¬tion dinner, after which the neophyteswill be full-fledged members of Hi-Y.G.C. CommitteeSponsors VisitTo Settlement“There will be a tour through thesettlement on Thursday, January18th” announced Doris Goodman. Abus will leave the Kenwood entranceof Belfield at 3:45 on that day. Any¬one interested in the Settlement isurged to let Doris know before 3:30on the preceding Tuesday. Therewill be a 25c charge for transporta¬tion (round trip) and the bus willreturn the students by 5:45.Out at the Settlement there will bea lecture. An added attraction willbe the serving of refreshments tothose present.It really should be interesting tolearn about the many advantagesoffered to less fortunate people. Con¬tributions from FYC students helpmake this necessary aid possible. Plans Changed; TwoPlays By F.Y.C. Group,One By D.A.Tryouts for the plays to be pre¬sented under the direction of the D.A.,were held last Monday afteimoon inMitchell tower.As the number of boys with actingpossibilities is limited, it was decidedthat Playfesters would present twoone-act plays, and the D.A. one play.Under consideration for the presentare Eorienor’s drama “Corridors ofthe Soul;” “How he Lied to Her Hus¬band” by Shaw and Haughton’s “TheDear Departed,” both comedies.The tryouts consisted of the im¬promptu interpretation of various se¬lections. Three members of the D.A.judged the renditions and chose sever¬al students for further work. These“elite” were then asked to do addi¬tional interpretations, and were in¬formed they would be notified ifchosen to play a part.SnowballsSnowballsSnowballsWith the coming of the usual Jan¬uary thaws the temptation to throwsnowballs is a strong one.

Dean Smithfelt that a paid leader would be moresucce.ssful. He said that he thoughtthis would attach more responsibilityto the position and do more towardsmaking the orchestra worth while.The Department of .Music is on thelookout for someone to direct and hasalready received one application.The actual numlH*r of students in¬terested is not known.

To accomplish this it isnot necessary to spend $2000,liowever it seems necessary thatthe lay-out of the Correlator bealtered slightly. Last summerthe plans of this year’s publi¬cation were already concludedwhen the Four-Year College unitwas announced and only withthe greatest sacrifices would ithave been possible to revise thebook.The main improvement seem¬ingly could be gained in reduc¬ing expenses. Our Correlatorcould very easily be a cheaperhook. As it was last year andthe years before that it had asnobbish, extravagant appear¬ance. By keeping the book insimpler and more sincere formsthe cost could be greatly re¬duced. A Chicago private .school(and no doubt many others)put out a much appreciated pub¬lication for $500. Why shouldthis school spend twice theamount ?Since a yearbook is to surveythe year’s activities it shouldlittingly also contain a verylirief outline of the most impor¬tant courses, just stating whatmaterial w’as covered and whotaught it.Of course all pictures printedshould he good; good enough to^^'t enjoyment from them for alifetime. It seems hardly neces¬sary to have so very manygroup pictures as has been trueof recent publication. If everystudent’s picture appears one ortwo times the purpose has beenfullfilled.We do not know what thisyear’s publication will be likeand are therefore speaking onlyof the past efforts. We also re¬alize that tradition must be con¬formed to even if the book asa whole is an original effort,and are therefore not criticizingthe Correlator staff of 1939-40.There are however manysmall details which would im¬prove the appearance and im¬pression of the volume as awhole. We hope that future Cor¬relator staffs will realize that agood yearbook is not necessarilyan expensive one, but one thatsatisfies the student body and,of all, is sincere.BasketballGame TonightTonight at Bartlett Gym at 7:00U.

HEAD-LITESNancy Miller Swimmers DefeatMorgan Park^ 60-11FYC BeatsWheaton 11-5;1st In Two Years Nushaum Wins BreastStroke Race; Next MeetTuesdayDear Public,We have here before us this dayone, Nancy Miller. She first came be¬fore this public (the U.High public)in her sophomore year at the tenderage of —(?)—. Before this she hadattended Faulkner School for girls.If you follow the trail closely youwill find her becoming a member ofthe Art Club. The trail seems to stopthere, but this, her senior year, shebranched out and became House Com¬mittee chairman of the Girls’ Club.Which puts her in the category ofthe regular Wednesday afternoon at¬tendants of the Girls’ Club BoardMeetings.Her main interests are horses and“Kinch.” (“Kinch” to the uninitiatedis—oh, well, stay uninitiated.) Herhobbies are the same. (Especially“Kinch”).Officially she thinks the best dancesof U.High (and the FYC) are theGirls’ Club dances. Unofficially shethinks it was the Hi-Y Ranch Party.(Author’s note: Of course the Girls’Club Leap Year Prom will by far sur¬pass any previous dances given in thisschool.—Propaganda.)Arlington Hall, a Junior College inArlington, West Virginia, is whereshe expects to continue her education.Her ambition is self-censored butaside from that she is considering in¬terior decorating.As for the Weekly, she likes it,though she would like to have moreof a dirt column. (R.R.S. and J.R.take notice.)Sidney EpsteinAfter graduation from the JohnMarshall Grammar School, Mr. Sid¬ney Epstein entered U. High as afreshman. His first year was takenup mainly by swimming, track andGlee Club; second year: swimming,track, and Glee Club ; third year:swimming, track and Glee Club.(Sounds like “make a gallopinghorse”). Aside from the above-men¬tioned, Sid was a member of theMath. Club for two years and theEngineering Club for one year. Thisyear he is activities editor of theCorrelator. He is now a member ofPhi Beta Sigma after having been onthe Phi Bete Honor Roll in his under¬class days.He likes everything about thisschool except people who don’t cometo swimming meets. His interests areswimming and swearing (I am quot¬ing verbatum). He intends to go toIllinois where he plans to take upCivil Engineering.Although he was born in Chicagohe thinks that the Senior AlumniDance is the best this school has everhad. (We’ll blame this incongruityon the printer.)Thank heavens he thinks theWeekly Suplement is as good as theMidway ever was. As a miscellaneousitem, he has in his possession (Hon¬estly gotten) 2 sets of numerals, 1minor letter and 5 or 6 major let¬ters. Wow! U-High won a basketballgame. They whipped the Wheatonlights 11-5. Perhaps they shouldhang their heads in shame for nothaving given this performance ear¬lier in the season, but gosh, they hadto start sometime.Things looked pretty black at theend of the first quarter with Wheatonleading 3-0, but the the second quar¬ter a new team and new spirit hadtheir effect and the score at the halfwas 7-3 in favor of U-High. In thesecond half the ponies scored fourpoints to Wheaton’s two so that thefinal score stood at 11-5.They have the makings of a goodteam. Just how good will be shownin tonight’s game with Harvard.Girl JournalistTells All - WOW!!Schoolgirl’s JournalJan. 10, 1940...Dear Dairy, thishas been a pretty exciting week atthe Four Year College. Heard allabout what everyone did over the holi¬days. First came that great shindig,the Senior-Alumni Dance, at which(despite the extreme eagerness of thewaiters) everyone says everyone hada good time. And all the boys seemedquite enraptured by “that” singer...After that came New Years Eve. (Ofcourse, everyone hung up his stock¬ing for Christmas, but who believes inSanta Claus, anyhow?).. .The intel¬ligentsia of the school was well rep¬resented at the opera, both in the au¬dience (Gerry Berg and so forth) andbehind the curtain by those super“.soupers,” Westfall, Both, Gillfillanand Wright. Ye editor of this old ragclaims he slept peacefully, but, whoknows?...Who were those handsomesoldiers Crawford and her friend wereout with, I wonder ?.. .Then came.school and many sleepy-eyed peoplewere seen in the halls, and some notseen. Among those not seen wereHartman (must have been fun inGeorgia, eh,) McHie, and Myers. . .Ifyou’ve seen people (male) doing queerthings round about here, its those Hi-Y pledges. Saw Ted Friedman pro¬posing to someone (unusual) outsideBelfield, Wednesday. I suppose it waspart of the initiation (I wonder...)...Did B. Anderson’s face get red inHumanities when Miss Campbellasked Vee what “true love” was...Walking back from Classics todayheard one bright student remark, “Itsounds so much better to cut a classthan to ditch one. Cutting sounds likean operation, but ditching is just plainW.P.A.”.. .Overheard in one Humani¬ties class, “Jean has a pretty goodfigure—but!” (the teacher meant met¬aphor, figui'e of speech).. .Has any¬one noticed the dazzle on Lynn Harri¬son’s third finger, left hand.

Jan.16th at 4:00.SPORTSCORNERBy BOB SCHWARTZIt seems incredible that the FYCshould allow a player to participatein inter-scholastic sports without theknowledge and consent of his par¬ents. For example let us take thecase of Jim Doe, an actual characterwith a fictitious name.“Doe signed his parents’ permis¬sion blank himself,” is the statementof manager Portis. He has been per¬mitted to participate in severalgames. Now I am not saying that hisparents do not want him to play orthat Doe is not a valuable memberof the team but that I believe hisparents should know of participationand should sign the permission blank.Aside from his obligation to his Mr. DerrAnnauncesTrack ScheduleThe schedule for the track teamwas made known this week by Mr.Derr. The intra-squad meet, to beheld next Wed.-Fri., is spread outover three days so that the boys maycompete in more events than theycould otherwise.

Doe should consider thestatus of the school. He not only hasput the team in a position of havingillegal players but also has made theschool liable to lawsuit in case of se¬rous injury to himself.Another thing about this wholesetup which interests me is that themanager has knowledge of Doe’s case(as exhibited by the above state¬ment) but did nothing about it!(Now I want it made clear that fic¬titious Doe is not the only case butthat many others are in the sameboat as he.) The two coaches of thelightweight team (Bill and ChesterMurphy) apparently knew nothingof Doe’s case for if they did I amsure that they would have taken ac¬tion. If however, they must learn ofsuch cases through the FYC Weeklylet them now read and learn!The basketball team deserves to becongratulated upon the tremendousvictory won at Wheaton. This, thefirst win in two years was termi¬nated by a score of 11-5 in favor ofthe lightweights.Blatz and Siebens BeersV‘.-' ^ ^j'•. -.-/‘Me, too.” ■ ;■ Coach Norgrcn commented cau¬tiously; / ■ -“We are trying to diversify ourscoi ing power.

While many studentsincluding the writer still bemoan theloss of football on the Midway, it isprobable that Chicago’s loss will be¬come Stanford’s gain.“Shag” will be on the spot, so tospeak, in his new job. He must proveto the public that he was not respon¬sible for ; Chicago’s losses. In otherwords, provided with the material, hemust produce winning teams to dem¬onstrate his worth.But to those who have worked un¬der him and to those teachers of thesport .who know him, his task does notseem difficult. On more than , oneoccasion Clark Shaughnessy has beenmentioned as one of theioutstandingcoaches of the country by the men whocoach football in-America. Only a fewyears ago he,was asked to accept theposition of head football coach at alarge; eastern school and declined. Onanother occasion a coach of one; of theleading professional teams stated that“Clark Shaughnessy is the one coachI wouldn’t wantito face in an 'All-Stargame.” ' “ - - ”Even the players that worked un¬der him on his losing teams had re¬spect for his coaching. Chicago’s; foot¬ball‘team was, often put sunder firebut it was., rare when Shaughnessyw'as blamed for the defeats.Certainly the'man must have aknowledge of the game if ,he com¬mands the respect and admiration thatseems , to be attached i to his name.Certainly his past record before hecame to Chicago indicates that he hashad his share of winning games: Atboth Tulane and Loyola he wa? ableto produce victorious combinations.Coach Shaughnessy, we are sorryto see you leave , the University of' Chicago but we ‘ express our bestwishes to you for a successful careerat Stanford.

Putme down for winning.” ! ' . .. Guard Ralphs Richardson adde<lhis usual loquacious manner: though his shoulder will probablyheal sufficiently for him to partic¬ipate in the meet, Shanken’s effic¬iency will be impaired, inasmuch asan arm injury is one of the mostdisastrous known to gymnasts ,Whether or not Shanken is at hispeak, the meet will be an interestingone. Earl and his brother Courtneyhave been working out for the all-around event along with GlennPierre. A1 Robertson is doing thetumbling. WRESTLINGWith the return of three more oflast year’s veterans, the outlook forthe wrestling team is brighter thanit has been. John Bushy, Wallie Young,and Bob Brown are those who havebeen released from the bonds of in¬eligibility or illness. All three areneeded because of the number of newmen on the team. The more experi¬enced men to balance off this inex¬perience, the better the team’s recordwill be.Tomorrow afternoon at 2 the teammeets Bradley Tech there, and thenmoves over to take on Normal at 8that night. Both schools have beendefeated by conference teams; Brad¬ley by Northwestern and Normal byWisconsin.
