Education is so easyto get nowadays; too much openeagerness about it is in ratherbad taste. In actuality, thethings that really make Lincolngreat are going out of style evenat this school.Whether or not Lincoln fits inwith the “smarter” Universityideals, he satisfies those of thenation. While campus heroesmay be big frogs in their ownlittle ponds, no superficial JoeCollege boy is ever going to at¬tain the stature of the Lincolnmythology. If students here,with opportunities Lincolnnever knew, scorn the same in¬tensity that makes Lincolngreat, then they not only rejectthe ideals of the nation; theyshow themselves lacking thecourage to actualize the bestthings in themselves. Evans playing Nora the show should!be terrific.Papa Hutchinscame back from his southern tourin the interests of the Fiftieth Anni-In The Golden AgeIf there is ever an Americanmythology, Abraham Lincolnwill be one of its greatest heroes.The figure of the poor farm boywho became President of theUnited States during one of itstensest crises has grown into alegend for thousands of citizens.For them, the birthday cele¬brated earlier this week symbo¬lized far more than a good ex¬cuse for a long week-end holi¬day.Much of the Lincoln mythol¬ogy stresses the rise of a log-cabin boy to the highest officein the land. Romantic stories, al¬most without end, tell how Lin¬coln freed the slaves and savedthe Union. These are usually in¬terspersed with so many littleanecdotes about his kindnessand humanitarianism that onehardly sees how he had time tosqueeze in his freeing and sav¬ing functions what with con¬stantly pardoning sentinels whoslept on duty, and chatting withth' ^v mothers and sisters.This romantic approach to thelife of a man who carried re¬sponsibility for the bloody, na¬tion-racking Civil War disgustssome sensitive souls. More real¬istically, they point out thathundreds of American liveswere lost in this war; that theSouth was ruined; that the Ne¬gro problem remained unsolved;that President Lincoln oftenseemed more fumbling than ef¬ficient.But there is one quality aboveall others in Abraham Lincoln’scharacter that commands admi¬ration even from realistic sensi¬tivities. He is this country’soutstanding example of a self-educated man. By the effort ofhis own will and with the aid ofa few “great books” he was ableto prepare himself for a legaland political career, and to pro¬duce some of the greatest ofAmerican prose masterpieces.His will and ability to actualizehis human potentialities despitegreat obstacles make him a heroto the American people.His will and ability shouldmake Lincoln an example toUniversity students, also. IfLincoln were to come to the Uni¬versity of Chicago today, heprobably would be looked uponas “queer” by the fashionable.In spite of his success at makingmen like him, his driving pur¬pose, his intensity about learn¬ing would be likely to make thesophisticated regard him withraised eyebrows.

He did not wantto “let the cat out of the bag”. Itwas indicated that perhaps the talkmay in some respect touch upon thelife of the Father of Our Country,whose birthday is the following day.Another aspect making the assemblyappear in an intere.sting light is thefact that .secret societies are barredfrom the life of secondary schools.It may be rather interesting to seewhat Dean Smith has to say on thatsubject.ComprehensivesScheduled ForMay 29-June 11The Four-Year College office an¬nounced recently the dates for allcomprehensive examinations to begiven next Spring.

After histalk he expects to participate in thegeneral dancing in the theatre.When Brown called on Dr. Reece,the latter presented the Senior Classwith a copy of T. V.

So that the mainbody of the Council should not haveto bother with details, an assemblycommittee was appointed consistingof Barbara Deutsch, John Morrison,and Adele Whittaker.The fourth article of the new con¬stitution was approved; this articlepertains to the officers of the Counciland their duties.

IdaNoyes Hall will be the scene of thisupper class cabareting and it will con¬tinue from 8:30 to 11:45 (PM).This dance really promises to be atreat as brothers Sonnenschien andYasus really have outdone all possi¬bilities on all angles. Food, entertain¬ment, and the regular school crowdcertainly can duplicate the Girls’ Clubsuccess of last month. Both facultyand parent representatives will act aschaperons and keep their elderly eyeson campus cut-ups.“Phi-Bete” members have alwaysbeen counted on, in past years, fordances that are successes, and thispromises to be no exception. The dec¬orations are something secret (andmystic) as are the waiters—and pos¬sibly the vocalist, but the ten pieceorchestra is a “newie” and from allreports can hold its own with thetrippin’ of the light fantastic of theFour-Year College group. HollandSubmits1940 CorrelatorBudget —Last week the editor of the WeeMyreceived a letter from Wesley Hol¬land, Correlator editor, containingthe information that the budget ofthe 1940 Correlator had been present¬ed to the administration for approval.Mr. Holland, when approached, saidthat as yet no word has been receivedfrom Dean Randall of the acceptanceof the budget, but that “the possi¬bilities of its approval were veryhigh.” The details of the budget werenot divulged by the editor who saidthat they concerned only the mem¬bers of the business staff, in otherwords, “none of our business.” Onlyone thing definite could be discovered:the council will allow the Correlatorno more money, so they must staywithin their budget.The book is coming along well andis almost finished. Most of the write¬ups are finished and almost all ofthe pictures have been taken. Thephotography editor said that what hesaw of the senior class pictures be¬fore W. Holland sent them to theprinters appeared to be very good.About the only pictures remaining tobe taken are the athletic pictures. Thereporter tried to worm the color ofthe Correlator cover out of the editorbut it seems that like the budget, ithas yet to be decided.Student BodyVotes TuesdayOn GraduationDean Zens Smith has announcedhis intention of holding a ballot tofind out from the student body howthey feel about the subect of gradu¬ation. The vote will be held Tuesday,February 20. The voting will be donein the R.W.C. classes held on that day.All those students who are in theR.W.C. honor section, will get achance to vote in their classes on Mon¬day. Any student who is not enrolledin an R.W.C. class, may receive nisballot from the office.The question to be voted upon iswhether those who are intending tocontinue in the Feur-Year Collegewould like a graduation at the end oftheir 14th year. As the matter nowstands, the 1940 and 1941 classes willgraduate at the end of their 12th year.In view of this, there is doubt inthe mind of the administration, as towhether these two classes will alsowish to have graduation exercises atthe end of the 14th year. The voteis to settle the question.ANNOUNCEMENTSFour-Year College Clubs will meeton Thursday, February 29, at 2:30p.m. Classes will meet on Monday,Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday.Clubs will meet in the previously an¬nounced places.* ♦ *There will be a Four-Year CollegeAssembly on Wednesday, February21, at 9:00 in room 126, GraduateEducation.

Successful ActorsLauded by FYCKIECritics on PlaysBy KATE SENIORand NANCY EMMERICHAt la.st the long-awaited D. A. pro¬ductions have been presented andeach one with its individual merits.It has proved very successful indeed.At the beginning of “Corridors ofthe Soul,” which was surrealistic inan understandable way, Frazier Rippyexplained the soul’s and the selvesthereof to his student audience. SueBohnen was a fine choice for a rea¬sonable and haughty character, Rich¬ard Schindler’s ability was somewhathampered by a part that called forone long climax; however, at the endhe loosened considerably and becamevery convincing. Due credit goes toBeryl Brand, who gave a 100% ex¬cellent rendition of the wife as seenby the emotional self.The next play was a brilliant suc-ces, by far the best of the evening.It depicted a small-town family whichcomes to grief when it is in too muchof a hurry to divide up a dead grand-father’ s possessions, and KennethAxelson was very convincing as thegrandfather. Sylvia Bernsen actedthe twelve-year-old brat accordinglywhile Bob Frazier did surprisinglywell as the hen-pecked husband. Fra¬zier Rippy did as well as his partallowed, but it was an anti-climax tothe one in the preceding play.The last play and also the least,was the most serious one on the pro¬gram. If it hadn’t been for poor act¬ing on the part of Robert Nystromand general insipidness, the playmight have been good.Scholarship DriversSuccess Told atG.C. Board MeetingThe meeting began at 4:00, andjudging from the number of boardmembers in absentia, the coffers ofthe Girl’s Club will be greatly in¬creased with absence dues next week.The Junior Mothers’-Daughters’ teawas discussed. Due to the shortage oftime, a speaker may not be found.However, other entertainment ispromised.Luise Marks reported that the to¬tal sum of $121.32 had been collectedfrom the scholarship drive, $96.00coming from the FYC, and the re¬mainder from the campus.Luise wishes to thank all the schol¬arship “Drivers”, the faculty and thestudents of the FYC for the fine co¬operation in making the drive such asuccess.M:irilyn Sill, secretary, suggestedtl .it a picnic for the girls of the FYCand their dates should be given nextspring. This was enthusiastically re¬ceived and final plans will be dis¬cussed when there is a quorum.After a few minor matters weretaken up, the meeting was adjournedat approximately 4:45.G.A.A. Board VotesOn Annual Banquet;Plans Dime DinnerDiscussion of the G. A. A. boardhas recently centered around the an¬nual banquet. Some say it is a wasteof time since half of the girls don’tcome, but on a vote taken it seemedthat more were in favor of having it.The Dime Dinner was also dis¬cussed and it was suggested that skitsbe put on by able members of theG. A. A. or some tap routines con¬scripted from the tap class.In the line of after-school activities,basket-ball and badminton have beengoing on but more girls should comeout. Bowling is to start in the verynear future.Although the Pegasus Club is notto meet this quarter, those girls inter¬ested in riding will have their chanceto ride this Friday. A group of girlswill meet at the Midway stables. Thefee will be one dollar per person. Allthose who are interested should signup with Alice Butlar immediately.fage Four THE DAILY MAROON, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 16, 1940.

MickelNight Editor: Bob SchwartzGraduationThe view point of the studentbody will be determined nextTuesday in respect to a 14th yeargraduation. The question centersaround the following points.While the classes were underthe previous high school sys¬tem, it was natural that a gradu¬ation should be held at the endof the 12th year. Now, how¬ever, the high school ends withthe 10th grade and the Four-year College is set apart as aseparate unit. Does it not fol¬low that a graduation should beheld at the end of each curricu¬lum? During the period inwhich the new system is beingestablished, the administrationhas promised a graduation atthe end of 12th grade, that isfor the class of 1940 and theclasses of 1941. Whether or notthese two grades want a gradu¬ation also at the end of their14th year, that is at the end ofthe Four-Year curriculum, iswhat the students themselveswill help to decide in the poll onTuesday.ProThis is a progressive school.We ourselves should be progres¬sive. The Four-Year College isan experiment. It is obviousthat we, being a part of it,should contribute to its success.By having a graduation in an¬other two years, at the end ofthe 14th grade, we will not mer¬ely be participating in anotherceremony, but we will be settingprecedent for those classes thatare to follow.The Four-Year College is en¬deavoring to establish itself inthe minds of people as a sepa¬rate educational unit. We mustthink not only of ourselves, the11th and 12th grade, but alsoof those classes that are to fol¬low. It would seem absurd tointerrupt the Four-Year cur¬riculum with a graduation.ConWe are told that we will grad¬uate at the end of our 12th year.This is what we have been ex¬pecting and looking forward to.Why should we again spendmoney for another practicallymeaningless ceremony?Although this is a Four-YearCollege there are many pupilswho will leave this school afterthe 12th grade (about half);they won’t need a graduation.Those who stay beyond this willvery likely finish the Universitythrough the 16th grade and agraduation in the midst of theircurriculum would be meaning¬less. HE AD-LITESCertainly the confusion wouldgreat if this year’s 10thgrade and its successors did notgraduate from high school. Thiswould require a double gradua¬tion in the Four-Year Collegefor still more years than may benecessary.S.H.B.R.R.S. Betty AndersonThe theme of this piece is “Smalltown girl makes good!” (And How!)She came to this big, bad, bold cityyears ago from a town called Aspin-wald, Penn,, several miles from an¬other place I’ve never heard of. Sheis much devoted to the place, goingback all vacations to see her mother’sfamily and, we must admit it, a cer¬tain Sam, who is not our uncle. Ineed not describe her, need I? A lus¬cious bit of femininity, 5’3y2” tall, 120lbs. blonde hair, blue eyes! You allmust know’ her! Her favorite color isblue, (to match her eyes) and thethings she could eat all day, all week,all year, are carmel-pecan-nut rolls.Along the line of sports she likesbowling best, and once bowled 139.Another thing she seems to have beenquite adept in is flirting. She claimsshe has forgotten how' since herFreshman year. (That’s just one w’om-an’s opinion.) However, there’s oneconsolation in that: any eyes shemakes now are real. To get back tointra-curricular activities, she likesHumanities best of all her subjects,it being “interesting, fascinating, in¬structive.” She also takes Color andComp, and likes art. She specializesin portraits, working mostly in char¬coal, using shadow and light for theinterest. This year she is Chairmanof the Costume Committee for Play-festers, (whose latest productions Ihope you have all seen.) She has twopet peeves. Here they are in order ofpeevishness: 1. Being called “Gol¬die”. 2. Being called “Blondie”.(You’re correspondent’s pet peeve:Betty biting her nails, again.) An in¬teresting fact: she has gone all theway through school, from 1st gradeto date through Sullivan and U. High,with Marney Bradley and Rich¬ard Mugalian. She loves to dance, anddoes it extremely well. She wants togo to Purdue and study Home Eco¬nomics. (Hmm.) She doesn’t like theSouth Side sense of humor, (can thisbe a hint to some of us ?) and alwayshas a warm spot in her heart for kindpersons who will give her rides to the“L” station from school. (Need I tellyou, this is a definite hint?)SPORTSCORNERBy BOB SCHWARTZTo the Sports Corner:The Rifle Team has not receivedits due attention from the Weekly.Its members have shown real abilitybut due to the price of ammunitionhave not been able to practice as longas they would wish to. What thisteam needs from the school is finan¬cial help (this is for ammunition). Inmy opinion the Weekly can help toobtain this financial aid by giving theteam its share of publicity. In otherwords—bring the team into theSports Page more often!If the team could practice moreoften it could become as near to per¬fect as is reasonable to expect. WhileI do not object to spending the moneyfor practice ammunition I know thatmany do.If you of the paper will give uspublicity, the students will come outto our meets, and the school will sup¬port our team. In other words: TheRifle Team Wants Publicity.An Anonymous Sharpshooter. Vytold YasusHeres’ a gentleman who’s a realsport! He’s not afraid to take a lotof chances—, so long as there’s a per¬centage in it for him.self. He comesfrom St. Rita’s High school, whei’ehe was president of the class in hisFreshman and Sophomore years, andas such influenced greatly the votingin Student Council. This year he isSecretary of Hi-Y and Vice-Presidentand Treasurer of Phi Beta Sigma. Hewas a member of the Sportsman Clubboth of the years he has been here,but this year it seems he joined justfor the picture. Last year he got aletter for both indoor and outdoortrack, (speedy is the world for Vy¬told!), “was the star of intra-muralfootball”, and as center forward forthe soccer team, he “made more goalsthan anyone else.” He admits he’s adismal failure at basketball, but thenhe isn’t “any worse than any of therest of the guys.” (This is positivelyonly the interviewee’s opinion.) Heused to collect stamps, had amassedabout 5,000 when he got mad one dayand gave them all away to his cous¬ins. He also collects silver dollars, butw’ouldn’t reveal the amount of thefortune tucked away in an old sock.He hunts quail, uniquement pour lesport. (Ugh!) The only things hedoesn’t like about the FYC are Ec.Soc., Phy Sci., Humanities, etc., etc.In fact the only subject he at alllikes is Miss Acker. Er—, I meant, ofcourse, RWC.Thys straunge rede spake he.Whose name was writ in crownedA’s. Yes, he’s the guy whoisn’t afraid of anything, even theComps. He’s going to continue at theU. of C., and his ambitions are to geta bigger allowance, and to get a newcar, 1940 Buick, 4 door, torpedo body,grey and blue two toned, . (Let’sjust let him dream on.) “Successbreeds success”, and he’s been one ofthe most successful. He also believesin “It pays to advertise.” He says“Come to the Phi Bete Dance. It willbe one of the biggest, best, most ter¬rific dances in all history. .”Bi-Sikers lo VisitIce Mounds;All Invited!It is not too late for Four-Year Col¬lege students who have never had theopportunity to enjoy the out-of-doorswith our school Biology club to takepart in the remaining outings.

Twentycents is also necessary to pay fortransportation. Please notify BobPlatt or Duval JaroS if you intend tocome.To the Sharpshooter:I shall try to get the paper to giveyou publicity. I believe the reasonthat you have not received it in thepast was that you have only had two Nu.sbaum again leading Gronert tothe finish line with the time of 1:16.0.The 220 yard freestyle was taken bya fast Township man, Hazelhur.st,with the time of 2:41.4. Bunny Jaffemade a strong bid for second placebut missed it by an inch or so.Sid Epstein was defeated for thefirst time this season in his specialty,the hundred yard backstroke. Theevent was taken by O’Connel ofTownship with the fast time of 1:10.2,Sid taking second place.Another first place came in the div¬ing when Robertson defeated Gilley ofTownship, last year’s South SuburbanChampion by three tenths of a point.The medley relay team again won itsevent but not so easily as usual. Mostof the credit goes to Johnny Feilerwho swam freestyle, overcoming asubstantial lead to win by a slightmargin.The sprint relay which we lost, wasthe deciding factor in the meet. Itsseven points made the difference ofa win or loss for U-High.NEXT SWIMMING MEET WITHMORGAN PARK—AT BARTLETTGYM POOL—TUESDAY, FEB. 20,—4:00. EVERY ONE OUT TO WATCHTHE TEAM WIN THIS RETURNMEET!!! O’Brien and FriedmanPlace First and SecondIn Shot Put EventOnce again the senior track teamlost, this time to Schurz by a scoreof 62 2/3 to 24 1/3. The first pointto be scored for U. High was gainedin the mile run, where McConnelltook third in a hard race. Next, Greencame in second in the high hurdlesand third in the lows. Followingthese, victory was announced in theshot put, where our star O’Briencame in first and Friedmann came insecond. Shortly afterward the finalsof the high jump came in, givingMetcalf a three-way tie for secondplace. Sergei was the next to comein, gaining a second place in the 440-yard run. Following this race Him-melblau took a second and Stoll tooka third in the 880-yard run. Mean¬while the pole vaulting took place,and Flook came in w’ith a solid sec¬ond place.When looking at the score, onemight think that U. High must havea terrible team, but this isn’t true.For many of our men, most of themthe best in their field, had been out<lue to sickness, etc. But at the nextmeet, a triangular meet among Aus¬tin, Englewood, and U. High, manyof them will bo back. By the way,while on the subject of the nextmeet, w’hat’s wrong in coming out andwatching it? The event will be atthe Fieldhouse, as usual, and will takeplace at 10:00 Saturday morning,h^ebruary 17.SUMMARYrz DefeatsJunior TraekiiieiiBy Score of 412/3.131/3Schurz High School defeated ourjunior track team last Saturdaymorning by a score of 41 2/3 to 131/3.John Newell took U-High’s onlyfirst place in the 660 yard run. Heran a nice race, gauging his finalsprint very well so as to pass up hisopponents whom he had trailed forthe first two laps.Bob Jamieson and George Lind-holm took second and third places re¬spectively in the shot-put. Jamieson al¬so tied for third place in the high jump.As can be seen, the junior track teamis suffering from the same trouble asthe senior squad. Several good menwere unable to compete because ofsickness. However, it is hoped thatnext Saturday morning when thesquad will meet Austin and Engle¬wood, there will be a much betterturn-out of competitors and specta¬tors.Pole Vault —forfeited to SchurzShot-Put —won by Stabovitz (S) : secondJamieson (U-H); third, Lindholm (U-H) :distance 39’ 3/4"Low Hurdles -won by Gusey (S) : second, Jur-in (S) ; third Frost (S) ; time 8:360-yd Dash won hy Scsrwall (S); second, Sul¬livan (S); third, Ohrn (S) ; time 7:0660-yd Run—won by Newell (U-H): second,Smith (S); third, Janislowski (S) ; time1 ^38.6Hiifh .lump tie for first by Juin (S) andWriKht (U-H): tie for third, Parfit (S),Sullivan (S) and Jamieson (U-H).Relay won by Schurz : time 50.9Totals -Schurz, 41 2-3: U-High, 13 1-3.

Thelights had been the victims of Chica¬go Latin. The locker room after thegame was not the scene of kidding,and jokes as it usually is. The fel¬lows couldn’t get over the fact thatthey had just lost their third leaguegame by one point. Only FrancisParker has beaten them by morethan a single basket.U. High went out on the floor withhigh spirits. At last they were goingto play on a floor that was a decentsize. But little did they know thattheir shooting would be poor. Thefirst quarter ended with the unbe¬lievable score of four to one; theboys from Latin leading. The halfended with Latin outscoring us tento five.CORRELATOR ANNOUNCEMENTThere are a few remaining grouppictures to be taken Wednesday, Feb.21.

U.High outscored the other team eightpoints to four. With two minutes re¬maining in the game, Solomon sunk abasket putting U. High in the lead,13-12, Latin immediately followedwith the last points of the game. U.High made a desperate but futile tryin the last minute. Two or three shotsjust missed by inches. So ended athrilling rough and tough lightweightgame by the score of 14-13.Our team played poor ball, as thelow score indicated U. High missedeleven out of eighteen throws, a verypoor record. The leading scorers wereDuval Jaros, who came through withfive points, closely followed by thefour points marked up for Jerry Sol¬omon. Our lights hope to do muchbetter in our coming home games./■i;, i J •li 1,"^' I 7 lil^'*Hiir'I* i •THE DAILY MAROON.

In thissecond tilt, Chicago was the team withfew reserves, for the Tech studentbody turned out some hundred strongto support their squad of fifteen play¬ers.The high point of the game wasthe third period, in which the Tech-hawks rallied to overcome a 3-1 leadwhich Chicago had piled up in theother two chapters and forge into thelead 4-3. At this, the Armour fansmade more noise than has been heardin the vicinity of the North Standsfor some time, but the Maroon puck-sters rallied and rapped in two goalsin the closing eight minutes of thefray to come out on top.Chicago opened the scoring early inthe first period when Moore flippedin a loose puck from in front of theTech net. Bob Ferguson and IrvBrecher received assists on the play.A few minutes later Chicago made it2-0 when Ken Cornwall took a passfrom Les Dean for the score.Armour TalliesThe second period saw Armourbreak the scoring ice when McKechniegot by the Maroon defense to makean unassisted goal. Cornwall scoreda third one for the Midwaymen onassists by Dean and Paul Jones,though; so Chicago was in front 3-1as the period ended.After the ice had been cleared, Ar¬mour came back with three phenome¬nal goals, the first by Crawford, thesecond by Watson and the last byRyan.
