After undergoing a sim¬ilar experience Saturday eveningagainst Indiana, the Maroons musthave felt right at home when CaptainHapac started to engage in conversa¬tion with Colin Handlen with a littleover a minute left to play and thecount knotted at 40 all.Hapac was standing about threefeet from the center line, some 40 feetfrom the backboard. He stood thereholding on to the ball until about fiveseconds remained to play. He thenshot. He made it, and the gun wentoff almost immediately after thislittle effort.Prior to this ending, the game wasevenly fought, the half-time score be¬ing 22 to 22.

How any one could think any¬thing else after dancing to the super¬smooth strains of Jimmy Dorsey onthe wonderful . . .” ad naseum.His proof consists mainly of ahatch of credit" and debit sheets. Theseshow 388 couples attended. $100 is theprofit. Jimmy Dorsey was remuner-iited to the extent of $1000 and theSouth Shore Athletic Club cost $176.“We think its the greatest prombecause the profit is the largest ofany other, after you figure that morepeople attended and that more waspaid for the orchestra than ever be¬fore. It’s all a matter of proportion,if you get what I mean” purusedJohnny in a most lucid manner.To those sweethearts that aided theprom committee, John, in his ca¬ pacity as promotion man, would likemuchly to extend thanks. Especiallydoes he want to put a discarded gar¬denia in the button hole of PresidentHutchins for accepting a bid to theannual affair.“Salesmen like A1 Gentzler, PhiPsi, who sold 28 bids, Jimmy Murr,Phi Delt, 22, and Earl Mich, 17 werethe best on the sales force,” the quin-tesence of effervescence added.Katz AddressesBar AssociationLaw LectureLaw School students will have anopportunity to meet Mr. Francis X.Busch this evening, for the prom¬inent trial lawyer speaks at 8 in theLaw School lounge on “The TrialI^iwyer and Office Lawyer.” His hear-will be given a chance to ques¬tion him and to discuss the topic ofhis talk.

Rubins, John Stevens,Hart Wurzburg, Marian Castleman, Ernest Leiser them to consider whether they want the workthat goes along with them; whether they wantto make responsibility for carrying on somestudent activity the primary interest of theirlast undergraduate year, or whether they preferto play or study instead. As long as the con¬vention of giving heavy activities jobs to can¬didates for the Bachelor’s degree persists,juniors ought to start thinking about thischoice as soon as possibilities arise.Traveling BazaarNight Editor: Chet HandAssistant: Don McKnightSignifying What?That time of year when juniors began striv¬ing for new and effective ways of demonstrat¬ing their grace and dignity as well as for show¬ing how indispensable their services are totheir organizations; the time when seniors aretempted to permit themselves a slight relapsefrom stateliness, care, and responsibility beforethey settle down to studying is with us again.The season for thinking about who next year s“leaders” will be is coming fast.What makes a good activities leader is aquestion rather difficult to answer. Why any¬one should seriously desire to lead activities isanother matter, its answers may be unpleasant.Embryo BMOCs and BWOCs may have ig¬noble motives. Mistakenly, they may believethat a big job on campus will impress people.So it may impress a few. But the audience atthis kind of school won’t be large enough tosatisfy a truly ambitious person; and most ofthe audience won’t be admirers anyway.Chances are that the only ones really interest-ad in who the “leaders” are will be other lead¬ers, others who want to be leaders, and otherswho want to blame leaders or get somethingfrom them. Campus glory here is mostly amatter of wishful thinking. Off-campus glorymay have more value—Luella’s mother mightbe quite proud of her little girl if Luella be¬comes president of the Monday Morning PoetrySociety, a college aide, copy editor of the DailyMaroon, or any combination of these three.Perhaps a prospective employer who didn’tknow how things are around here might be ledinto believing that copy-reading for the Ma¬roon would make little Luella well qualified forchecking his files and emptying his waste¬baskets. But people who accept big activity.'obs for purely selfish reasons are as likely asnot to be frustrated.Maybe the ambitious boys and girls wantto lead their activities because they are honest¬ly interested in the work their organizationsare doing. They may want to see this workcarried on, perhaps more efficiently; they maywant to learn more about it; they might behaving too much fun at it to want to stop. Ifso, they run the risk of being disillusioned.Responsibility for any large campus organi¬zation involves much hard and often unpleas¬ant work. Good labor may often be unrecog¬nized, the bad will almost certainly be blamed.Good or bad, it will probably lead to using fel¬low-university members as means, to judgingthem according to what the organization canget out of them. When this year’s leaders picknext year’s crop they will be evaluating themin such a fashion. Treatment of human beingsin this way may help students to get on moreshrewdly in the world; but it is not likely tomake the world better; nor is it the kind oftraining a progressive University should be ex¬pected to provide. Its consequence is cynicism,which at a youthful stage, is usually cheap.For strong souls this may be good discipline,but it takes a strong soul to survive it withnot too much tarnish.Perhaps some may think the preceding re¬marks overstate the seriousness of activitiesresults. These remarks assume that the lead¬ers will have a fair degree of concern abouttheir jobs. But after all, students who acceptresponsibility for something, no longer are par¬ticipating in that thing merely for the fun ofit; they have to see that whatever their organi¬zation is supposed to do gets done. And if no¬body else will do it, they should have to do itthemselves. It may be possible for them to per¬form tho.se tasks without letting the work pene¬trate their inner consciousnesses, but it is moreprobable that even the sleepiest of “leaders”IS subconsciously developing habits. The hab¬its may be bad.The people who want next year’s local laur¬els know who they are.

The price of 35 cents (not twobits as previously announced) canhardly prevent such a small buildingfrom being overflowed.The version presented will be exact,with full choir, small chamber or¬chestra, harpsichordist, and organist.It will be even requested that thecongregation join in the chorales, aswas done in the eighteenth century.Fortunately unlike the otherwi.segreat performances of Koussevitskywith Harvard and Radcliffe choirs,this production will not contain anypseudo-dramatic rearrangements.The work needs about as much in¬troduction as the “Divine Comedy”,but it might not be out of place tomention that it has much more per-.sonal religious expression than itsmore well-known and more augustfellow “The Passion According to St.Matthew”. The drama as told by St.John is more interspersed with ex¬pressions of sorrow and devotion onthe part of individuals, which mightbe called lyrical if their passion werenot so great.Vladimir Horowitz is the drawingcard at the Symphony’s Thursday-Friday series.

Thus the AD’s willof necessity cop the majority of pointsawarded for the pin busting loop.That development places even moreemphasis on the I-M basketball play¬offs which got under way last week.Wally Hebert, who is in charge of theIntramural department, rates PhiDelt and ADPhi the two leading con¬tenders for the cage laurels. “It’s toobad they both were in the sameleague,” he remarked shortly afterthe Phi Delts had nosed out the AD’sto win their league.Tonight’s playoff tilt matches PhiPsi, present I-M leader, with PhiGam. Both outfits are teams to watch;Phi Psi won the Alpha league, but He¬bert did not feel that they showed asmuch power as either Psi U or PhiDelt, who w'on the other two leagues.The winner of tonight’s scrap is slatedto meet Phi Delt, who got a firstround bye, and so are automaticallyin the semifinals. Psi U also rated apass in round one; they are to meetAlpha Delt in the other semifinal tilt,for ADPhi moved into the bracketwhen they took over the Dekes lastTuesday.Delta Kappa Epsilon, thanks large¬ly to its class of ’43 has made a val¬iant comeback this quarter, havingwon the track meet and the wrestlingcompetition. As yet no statistics areavailable as to the standings of thevarious teams, but in view of their“also ran” rating last Quarter, it isunlikely that they will be able tocrack the first division, for they havealready been eliminated from the bas¬ketball tourney .In preparation for their playoffgames, several of the ranking fra¬ternities combines are tackling out¬side teams in practice games. LastSaturday, immediately precedingtheir record-breaking beer bust, thePhi Delts took on the Intramuralchamps from George Williams Collegeand took it on the chin, 39-36. To¬night Alpha Delta Phi will match its“A” and “B” quintets with the pow¬erful Hanley’s All-Stars combine,which features the Murphy twins.
