Rubins, John Stevens.Hart Wurzburg, Marian Castleman. Ernest LeiserNight Editor: Marian CastlemanAssistant: Mary GrahamBefore Our EyesBy an ironical coincidence the speaker inChapel this Sunday talked about racial rela¬tionships. Leslie Hill, Negro author and presi¬dent of the state teachers’ college in Cheyney,Pennslyvania, gave the address. He told of theloss to the general welfare when contributionsof the Negro population must be cut off. Onlya broad general education and culture, he said,can remove the barriers that make us depriveourselves of Negro contributions.Probably the speaker considered his audi¬ence the type to whom his appeal could bemade effectively. He pointed out the fact thatthe Negro problem would be a troubling of thenational conscience as long as it lasted. Heshowed how foreign dictators taunt us withthis plight whenever the United States makesovertures for peace, or rebukes them for theirinjustices. For the solution, he looked to thecarrying of truth and spiritual courage intohuman relationships. “The educated man,” hesaid hopefully, “doesn’t judge by superficiali¬ties. To preserve democracy there must be amighty contribution of educated men to the ral¬lying of public opinion.”Whether or not he knew that a certaingroup of supposedly educated people here hadshown recently that they considered super¬ficialities almost sacred, the speaker directedhis final appeal to the students at St. Johns,the college where the ideals of this Universitycome closest to being realized in actual prac-ice. He looked to them, as truly educated men,to have enough truth and courage to help thisrallying of public opinion.Tonight, and every night the Interfrater¬nity Council meets, a group of University menwill have the opportunity to show they haven’tforgotten their duty as educated men. By in¬viting Kappa Alpha Psi to take part in the In¬ter-fraternity Sing the Council can take a verysmall though significant part towards breakingdown superficial barriers. Such invitation canbe made by majority vote.Looking ForwardOne of the obstacles to the extreme theoriz¬ings of educationalists who insist you can learnonly by doing is the problem of preparationfor marriage.Marriage is a social relationship which al¬most everybody, even almost every Universityintellectual, is involved in at one time or other.As long as this relationship is so tremendously jimportant, it seems rather amazing that almosteverybody, even almost every University in¬tellectual, enters it rather ignorantly.Too much time and emotion is lost whenpeople try to learn about marriage by doing;too many pathetic errors occur. Much unhap¬piness could'be avoided if people were better in¬formed in advance of the social and biologicalproblems marriage involves. The schools neg¬lect their duty in failing to educate for thisbasic part of life.Until that enlightened time in the futurewhen all secondary school pupils are given thisinformation in their classrooms, a series ofmarriage lectures such as the one beginning to¬day will not only be a good idea, but a vitallynecessary one for the well-being of this country.New Spirit?The conduct of the crowds at the basket¬ball games this season seems to indicate thatenthusiasm and sportsmanship are incompati¬ble at this great intellectual institution.In the early part of the season the specta¬tors conducted themselves as adults, but didso without letting the team know that therewas anybody in the stands. Last weekend thereverse was true. We were glad to see thatenthusiasm reached a new high, but ashamedto note that it did so at the expense of goodsportsmanship. There were several instancesof unnecessary jeering at the officials and heck¬ling the opponents when they were taking freethrows. :>/.A*V. This is not the type of conduct that makesone proud of his alma mater. Spirit is essential,but not at the expense of fair play.i J.

PECKWith two musical entertainmentsfor the week, the University makes agood showing. Last night the Col¬legium Musicum appeared for thefirst of its concerts of this term, andnext Sunday afternoon, the Bandgives its annual mid-winter concert.The latter, free in Mandel, includessome excellent band music, but muchwill appear about this later.♦ ♦ ♦Peter and the Wolf, written byProkofieff, conducted by Stock, andnarrated by Paul Leyssac, Danish-French actor, musician and writer, isthe centerpiece for the Symphony’sThursday-Friday series. It is Chi¬cago’s introduction to the work, butif one can remember the LieutenantKije of the same composer given lastsummer at the Ravinia Festival, hewill recognize the genre.The music was originally writtenfor children and appropriately tellsan absurd tale with great wit and nolittle lyrical ability. It is told thatwhen Prokofieff came away from aBoston Symphony concert disgustedat the audience’s reception of his se¬rious work, he said: “Boston cannotunderstand great music; so I will givethem children’s music.’’ Next time hegave them Peter and the Wolf, andthey lapped it up. But that is only astory'.Saint-Saens’ Carnival of the Ani¬mals and a bit of Glinka fill the bill.Symphony cellist, Edmund Kurtz,gave an outstanding performance ofTchaikowsky’s Variations on a RococoTheme. He made his instrument singthrough the romantic sections of theworq, but even his great technicaltalent could not hide the inherentpoverty of the thematic material andthe inventions.Conductor Lange gave a renditionof the Berlioz Symphonic Fantastiquewhich was full of fire, and if the finalewas a bit brassy, that was the French¬man’s fault. The scene aux champscame out with well directed pastoralliteralism. (It is a bit ironic to notethat this scene at Sceaux is nowadaysusually filled with very lower middleclass promenaders.)m * *Thaddeus Kozuch, Chicago 26 yearold pianist, seems to be of the classto compete with the best in the coun¬try. His concert in the Musical ArtsSeries last Tuesday night was jam¬med so much that many sat on thestage of Orchestra Hall. Liszt’sFunerailles was played with a forceof sentiment that avoided successfullyall touches of “schmaltz’’, and theChopin Etudes were subtle and sodrily played as to produce a sensa¬tion of great chic. Unlike many A-mericans, Kozuch had a true feelingfor the lyricism of Frenchman Pou¬lt ic. Harper Calls SovietAttack A MistakeExplains Failure of Brit*ish-Soviet Negotiations.“By attacking Finland the Soviet jUnion miscalculated both politically ;and militarily’’—this was the con- jelusion on the Russo-Finnish warwhich Samuel N. Harper, professorof Russian Languages, presented tothe members of the Ellis StudentClub last night.Harper offered explanations forthe failure of the British-Soviet ne¬gotiations, the non-aggression pactwith Germany, the Russian occupa¬tion of what was formerly Poland,and the war with Finland in thelight of the recent history of the So¬viet Union.According to Harper, a differentattitude toward cooperating withFrance and England first began todevelop over the Spanish civil warwhen the Soviet demanded that thename of a certain nation (probablyItaly) practicing piracy be revealed.This demand interfered with Cham¬berlain’s appeasement policy andpartly as a result, Chamberlain andBonnet, left the Soviet Union out ofthe Munich agreement “because itwould refuse to go in for appease¬ment.’’Harper maintained that after theMunich agreement, “mutual suspicioncaused the breakdown of the negotia¬tions between France and Englandand Russia.” Russia thought that"the British-F’rench game was to letGermany push eastward” while theBritish and French were afraid ofSoviet designs on the territory ofnearby states.The speaker held that the Russianoccupation of part of Poland was tobe expected from a Soviet policythat had been previously announced— "If we see any armed forces com¬ing toward our territory, we willjump our frontier and meet them”.Closing with a somewhat pessimis¬tic viewpoint. Harper said that whilein all probability there is no militaryalliance between Germany and theSoviet Union, there is “a possibilitythat France and Great Britain mayface a real military combination.”Scouts Consider Dope“Dope” will be the subject underdiscussion tonight at the ScoutingClub Smoker, where Tarina PrasodSinda, formerly of the League ofNations Narcotic Control will speak.All Campus men are invited to come.The Smoker will be in ReynoldsLounge A at 8 P.M.

These two games played onSaturday and Monday evenings closedthe first half of the conference card,and left the Maroons firmly ensconcedin the cellar position with a record ofsix losses and no wins.The emergence of two new playersIn the starting lineup heralded theimprovement which the cagers havebeen making steadily since the Mar¬quette game in Milwaukee. WithJack Fons and Chuck Wagenbergadding speed and drive to the Chicagofive, the team played the best ballthey have displayed thus far this sea¬son.Schick ScoresIn the Saturday game against OhioState the presence of center JohnnySchick was mainly responsible for theOhio win. Schick poured in ten fieldgoals and three free throws for atotal of twenty-three points.In the holiday game the home teamplayed the league-leaders better thaneven for the first ten minutes. TheBoilermakers went out in front whenthe score was tied at seven all andwere never headed as Tierney, Blank-en, Beretta and Yeager scored fromall angles, chiefly under the basket,to bring the half time score to 33 to16.The Purdue hoys played the ballvery closely, hawking at all opportuni¬ties. They employed fast-breaking of¬fense and close guarding tactics tostay out in front.I-M Track PrelimsHeld ThursdayOne of the two leading events onthe Intramural calendar is the an¬nual track meet, which is scheduledfor Thursday and Friday. Competi¬tion is largely on a team basis, butall undergraduates and fraternitymen are invited to participate.Thursday will see the prelims inthe 60, 220, and 440 yard dashes, thehalf mile run, and the half mile re¬lay, as well as the broad jump.

Out of 11 firsts theytook all but two, those going to Chi¬cago and Purdue.The only event in which Chicagowas even adequately represented wasthe 60 yard dash in which Davenporttook first, Beatty took fourth andHirsch took sixth. Jimmy Ray wasable to tie for second place in thehigh jump with Wisconsin’s Foster.Pucksters WinContinuing its unbeaten intercol¬legiate record, the Maroon hockeyclub trimmed Armour 3-1 Fridaynight on their home rink. Playingcoach Vern “Rabbit” Moore wasthoroughly dissatisfied with theteam’s showing, despite the fact thatthey won the game, however, for heattributed the victory to the Tech-haw’ks’ utter lack of reserve mate¬rial. Foil Men PaceFencers in WinsOver Notre DamePaced by a red hot foil team whichfound itself for the first time thisseason, the Maroon fencing teameked out a 15-12 win over a fightingsquad from Notre Dame Saturday atBartlett Gym. The midway forcesdropped the epee and sabre events,but took the foil by a score of eightto one, as Alex George and MatGladstone came through without los¬ing.The South Benders were led hyJack Smalley, who doubled up in epeeand sabre to win all six of his con¬tests in these two weapons. Bill Sayiaalso doubled for the Irish, workingin foil and epee. In the duellingsword event, the Maroons took butthree of the nine bouts, as LoyalTingley, Herb Ruben and Ben Pritzeach took one win. The former two jdropped two decisions as did Norton IGinshurg. The sabre team lost for jthe first time this season, five tofour. Don McDonald and Paul Seiver ;winning two out of three as Dick ]Glasser dropped three bouts. Wrestlers LoseTo NebraskaNebraska wrestlers conquered theChicago grunt and groan men 6-3 ina meet held in Bartlett Gym Friday.Chicago men who won their bouts, allby decisions, were Weiss, Stone, andMoore. Moore tried for a fall butwas unable to make it as his manput up only a defensive fight.The most outstanding reason forthe Chicago defeat seemed to be thatthey were in poorer shape than werethe Nebraska men, possibly becauseof a letdown after the Northwesternmeet.
