DeVoto RevealsNeiv Side of TivainIn Moody Lecture Take ASU Posters On Russian—Finn Invasion From BoardsBy GEORGE SCHLOSS“This is a hidden chapter in the lifeof a great American artist,” beganauthor and critic Bernard de Votolast night when he lectured on “NewLight on Mark Tw'ain.”Speaking in Mandel Hall under theauspices of the William VaughnMoody lecture foundation, Mr. de Vo¬to, a well-known authority oti thegreat American humorist, revealednew and interesting information on!some hitherto unknown manuscripts.“This is the story of Twain’s hiddentransformation; the one period in hisadult life when he tried to write andfailed,” continued de Voto,Catastrophes“Beginning with the year 1890, agreat many catastrophes besetTwain: his financial ventures failed;one of his daughters was strickenwith epilepsy, and another his fav¬orite, died of meningitis on board aship which w'as taking her to her be¬loved father in London; Twain him¬self and his wife soon became inval¬ids—all in the period of a few years.Here w’as Twain a bankrupt, a fail¬ure, grief stricken and thrown fromthat high pinnacle of worldly successand fame which had been his for somany years. In the bargain he discov¬ered that he was unable to write aseasily as he had in the past. He used!his art to one end—to divert his mind jfrom all the terrible experiences of |which he had been a victim.” iAt this point in the lecture Mr. de IVoto read from one of Twain’s let-1ters, written at that time— “I work;only for surcea.se from sorrow; I have jmany unwritten books to fly to for jmy preservation.” “But he was mis-1 AD’s Win I-MFraternityCage TourneyBeat Phi Delts, 15-12;Play C.T.S., IndependentChamps, Tomorrow.Feature even on last night’s In¬tramural card was the smash bangbasketball finals between Phi Beltand Alpha Belt, in which the latterwon out, 15-12.

Then Phi Belt spurtedto nearly knot the count at half time,for they drew up to within one pointof the Alpha Belts at 8-7 as the firstbruising period ended.The second half opened with a con¬tinuation of the Phi Belt rally, whichgave them a 10-8 advantage beforeAlpha Belt could catch up at 10-all.Each team tallied once when HarryPolicing and Bev~ Wilcox each hoop¬ed their half of a double foul.

The goal was notfar concluded Mr. de Voto, “for withthe publication of ‘The MysteriousStranger’ Twain discovered his lostgift. Again it was with Tom Sawyer,his old friend Tom, but his time theirfriendship was on a different basis—their reality became dreams and theirdreams reality. Probe Nooks, Corners Of IdaNoyes For Forgotten Furniture “ASU members VOTE-Referendumon Peace and Russia’s Attack on Fin¬land”, read five posters put up byJanet Adams, liberal publicity chair¬man of the ASTT. and taken down byprd-Russian Aida Handler.These signs, designed to publicizethe coming vote on the Russo-F’nnishquestion, were posted early Mondaymorning by Miss Adams and removedless than an hour later by her polit¬ical opponent. Miss Handler.Commenting on the action MissAdams said: “I believe that if thereferendum is properly advertised,the members of the ASU will turnout to vote on the question and Rus¬sia’s invasion of Finland will be con¬demned. Taking down the posters isan attempt to keep the issues clouded,and therefore prevent the rank andfile of the ASU liberals from votingon the question. The facts must bepresented.”Lipshires SpeaksWhen asked to justify the removalof the posters, ASU chairman, SidLipshires gave the following reasonsfor the action:1) Although Miss Adams is pub¬licity chairman of the organization,all posters must be approved by ei¬ther the executive committee or itschairman (Lipshires). He disapprovedof the posters because:2) the fact that Owen Whitefieldwas to speak at the meeting was men¬tioned only in small letters, and3) the word ‘attack’ should not havebeen used to describe the Russian in¬vasion. - - -Chapel Union PlansOgden Dunes OutingStudents recovering from the strainof quarterly examinations, who wantto meet lots of nice people, or evadegoing home to their parents are in¬vited to sign up in the Chapel Officefor the spring vacation outing toOdon Bunes.

A study of the interior of Ida jNoyes Hall has been undertaken this |year by the Ida Noyes Council. By idelving into all available material,'probing into every nook, corner, andeave, and unearthing much that hasbeen long-forgotten, the Council hasemerged far-the-wiser, and more thanwilling to divulge all.The study was made in order tohave correct information on hand forstudents and “sight-see-ers” who areinterested in the history, furnishings,decorations, and carving motifs of IdaNoyes Hall. Then, too, many pieces offurniture were moved £!A)out fouryears ago, and no records were madeof where they were placed. Finally,the Council felt that the studentsmerely take for granted the beauty ofthe University buildings, and thatjsuch a study would awaken interest inthe details of consti’uction and in¬terior decorations.Three CommitteesAccordingly, the 25 members of theCouncil were divided into three com¬mittees, with Mary Harvey as chair¬man of the third floor group, MaryColley of the second floor, and Clar¬issa Rahill of the first floor.Ida Noyes Hall was furnished by acommittee of University women, in¬cluding Miss Budley, Miss Langoly,Mrs. Judson, and Mrs. Flint. The Hallwas patterned and furnished as anEnglish manor house, with the furni¬ ture collected and purchased over along span of time, and belonging tono particular period or country.Mixture of StylesHence, we find a Queen Anne sec¬retary, a Jacobean chair with Span¬ish leather back, an old Gothic chest,and a huge table of carved mahoganyscattered at random throughout theHall. The carving on the stairs, thepattern on the ceiling in the foyer, theconstruction of the unique woodworkon the third floor (not a nail in thewhole structure), all are interestingitems that few people have noticed,or are informed about.After the completion of this proj¬ect, Ida Noyes will have a very ac¬curate record of the background andplacement of the furniture, rugs,paintings, and carvings in the build¬ing from basement to roof.Interview Men forWorld's Fair PostsA representative of the AmericanExpress Concession, Inc., will inter¬view University men who are interest¬ed in working as chair guides at theNew York World's Fair, in the Vo¬cational Guidance office on March 23.Students who are interested shouldsee Mr. Lowell S. Calvin, director ofVocational Guidance before the 23rd.Those who apply must be availableat the Fair grounds by May 1, nolater. The following qualificationsare necessary: height—5’ 10” to 6’2” inclusive; weight—165 to 215 in¬clusive; and age—18 to 26 inclusive. Elect Hammel HeadOf Ida CouncilMary Hammel was yesterday elect¬ed Chairman of the Ida Noyes Coun¬cil for the coming year, and MarjorieSullivan was made new Secretary.Mary is also president of Foster Hall,editorial associate of Cap and Gown,member of Y.W.C.A., and chairman ofcostumes in the recent Mirror pro¬duction.The executive committee for nextyear’s Council, also elected yesterday,will be Mimi Evans, senior represen¬tative, Key Kellam, junior represen¬tative, and Mary Colley, sophomorerepresentative.All officers were chosen from theranks of the recently-elected Councilmembers, who were, in turn, chosenafter submitting their names to anominating committee composed ofpresent senior members.The present Council consists ofMary Hammel, chairman, MarjerieSullivan, secretary, and CatherineBryburg, Mary Harvey, Lois Whiting,Mimi Evans, Muriel Frodin, BettyJane Nelson, Clarissa Rahill, KayKellam, Jean Scott, Mary Herschel,Mary Colley, Joan Duncan and Mar¬jory Goodman. 4)Letters to every qualified voterin the ASU have been sent to informthem of the referendum, so postersare unnecessary.Adams AnswersIn answer to the last three points,Miss Adams pointed out: that the im¬portance of the meeting was notbased on Mr. Whitefield’s talk, butrather on the outcome of the vote onthe amendent; that the phrase ‘Rus¬sian attack on Finland’ is used in theamendment in question; that thecards sent to the members of the ASUmention the referendum only at thebottom, and even there do not em¬phasize the vote on Russia.According to Miss Adams Russia’sinvasion will be condemned by theASU if a large percentage of themembership votes on the question,but will not be condemned if only the‘regulars’ vote. Therefore the out¬come of the vote depends on the pub¬licity given to the question.The voting will take place at 3:30Friday in Rosenwald 2, and againTuesday from 11 to 4 on the thirdfloor of Harper West.Elect Esther DurkeeNetv President ofYWCA YesterdayEsther Burkee is the new Presidentof YWCA, victorious over rival Har¬riet Augustus in the run-offelection held yesterday to break aprevious tie. Other officers, elected inthe primary, were Marjery Woodrich,vice-president; Jean Cooney, secre¬tary; and Phyllis Richards, treasurer.Voting for the new staff was heldin the lobby of Ida Noyes last Thurs¬day and yesterday, and all Y mem¬bers were eligible to cast, ballots.Other candidates running for thefour offices were Harriet Augustus,for president, Beverly Ward, for vice-president, Eva BeVol, for secretary,and Virginia Richards, for treasurer.Present officers of the Y are RuthNeuendorffer, president; DorothyEaton, vice-president; Esther Durkee,secretary; and Harriet Augustus,treasurer.The Y, comprising many commit¬tees and groups, achieves centralizeddirection through two cabinets, theFirst and the College Cabinet. It isalso aided by an Advisory Board com¬posed of faculty wives and otherwomen interested in its growth.0Page Two THE DAILY MAROON, WEDNESDAY, MARCH 6, 1940Batig JHaroottFOUNDED IN 1901MEMBER ASSOCIATED COLLEGIATE PRESSThe Daily Maroon is the official btudent newspaper of the Uni¬versity of Chicago, published mornings except Saturday, Sunday andMonday during the Autumn.

Rubins, John Stevens.Hart Wurzburg, Marian Castleman, Ernest LeiserNight Editor—John StevensAssistant—Dick LevinOn the FrontiersOne of the most distressing problems Uni¬versity graduates must face is what will hap¬pen to them when they get out? What willthey do when they exchange the quadrpglesfor other areas of living? A recent editorialin the Daily News, as well as the nearness ofgraduation for this year’s seniors brings thisproblem to the fore again. Just what is influ¬ence of a college education after the four yearterm is completed?In one sense, the answer is very simple. Ifthe students have gone to a good school, andgraduates of this school have, then they shouldbe prepared for fuller happier living even out¬side in the practical world. If they have at¬tempted to get themselves properly educatedthey will be more aware of the parts of theworld they live in, and of relationships of theseparts. They should be prepared to make gooduse of their leisure time; to enjoy themselvesbetter than people who have not had generaleducation; to be more intelligent and give more- * consideration to political problems. Theyr should be interesting people to know. Whenuniversity graduates cannot live up to this de¬scription it is because of improper training,faulty submission to it, or both.But this gives little concrete solution tothe most tormenting of the difficulties that liein wait for college graduates. For these ans¬wers to be complete would presuppose a typeof society other than that we live in.The first thing expected of most graduatesis that they start earning their own living. Itis very important to point out here the obvi¬ous fact that this problem is nowise peculiarto students. Work is something expected of al¬most everybody. Those who are fortunateenough not to have to bother about this usual¬ly do not concern themselves with the prob¬lem.In one way, students coming out of collegeand finding no eager demand for their servicesshould be better prepared to withstand thissituation than other young people who havehad little general education but are in the samepredicament. Though the college graduate maybe untrained vocationally or even professional¬ly, his understanding should be developed suf-"I ficiently for him to learn a vocation easily atsome other than an intellectual institution, orto start training for a profession. In this way hemay preserve the benefits of education in hislife, and yet not starve to death or become aparasite. The pity of all this comes from thefact that so few people get a good general edu¬cation in college: so many are tremendouslyshocked when they discover that their fouryears of “higher education” have left themout on a limb as far as job-getting is concerned.This often results in the idea that colleges areneither pleasant nor profitable in their effectson youth.['V, solution to this problem seems relative¬ly easy to find. Let students go to colleges toget educated, to universities to pursue truth,to trade schools, professional institutions, andapprenticeship to get jobs.Only verbally, however, is the problem solv¬ed Any attempt to carry out this solutionactually would bring to the front all the preiu-dice.s and muddled emotions about educationm their full hue and cry. And,'as things arenow, only great effort can prevent this solu¬tion from being impossible.The difficulties go back to the fact that in the past Americans have been noted for theirenthusiasm for education. Nowhere else in theworld are so many children sent to college. Butalthough education has been in our ideals, wehave not been clear about what our idealsmean. The fact that recent years have broughta reaction against advances which are termed“fads and frills” in education show that Presi¬dent Hutchins may have been right in thestatement the News editorial took exceptionto: “the love of money and the desire for free¬dom to make it and equality to pursue it arethe current ideals of the United States.” Ifthis is so, any educational system which doesnot directly prepare for money getting is outof step with current ideals.The days of the old frontiers are gone. Thedays when education was one of our ideals asa means to equal opportunity for financial suc¬cess have passed. Now^adays good educationusually delays financial success and makes itseem less important. But the same spirit ofprogress that made our older ideals and push¬ed back the old frontiers should work now tobring the ideals up to date. The training thatmakes for good living is more important thanwhat promotes money getting. To put this newidea into our ideals will require new pioneers.Maybe those few fortunate students who don’thave to worry about the problem of making aliving will find some practical work cut out forthem in fighting for the new cause.Traveling BazaarBy DICK HIMMEL"Who was the viciousthat wrote this,” Nels F'uqua cooed to Mr.Randall at a Mirror rehearsal, nodding at the publica¬tions skit. Pappy Randall smiled pleasantly. Poised hislips for speech and cooed back, “I was!”Johnny Bex is. . .high pressured as all stuff. He promoted all theWash Prom doodad including the digging excursionexecuted by Maroon friend Crane, who didn’t even geta freeish bid out of the deal. At any rate big Johnnydecided to apply his high pressure to his private lifeand see if he couldn’t swing a deal, putting a new twiston the old pin game.Twenty-two days—count them—twenty-two beforehis home tov.n beauty’s birthday, he started sending asingle rose a day with one word on the attached card.Put together the cards spelled anything but mother.They spelled in poetic language, “How about you andme, babe?” On the 22nd day, the day of her birthday,his friend received her single ros?. Attached was apin. A fraternity pin. It worked, which shows whata college education can do for a boy.Jim Tedrow is a. . .fine stage hand. He worked hard on Mirror. Butten minutes after the curtain fell for the last timeSaturday night, the wonderful caricature of Barrymorewhich was in the last skit was in the Phi Delt house,amusing Phi Delt visitors and friends... .other stage hands worked hard on the show andthought they deserved a little fun last night. Oneparticularly assiduous working Kappa Sig’s job was tothrow a sandbag at me in “Espionage,” carefully miss¬ing me. Saturday night he thought was his night. In¬stead of a sandbag he had a flour bag. Instead ofmissing me, he planned to hit me.In the beginning of the skit somehow a wild waveof suspicion crept over me. I said the line which wasthe cue for the sandbag. Ducked back about two feet.I saw a large cloud of white. There at my feet was abag of flour broken messily all over the stage. Un¬sullied I smiled sweetly and said my line, “Seagulls,”sneered viciously and smugly into the wings. The skitwent on.The nice stage hand got his chance, though. He hadto clean up the mess he had made. Ho hum! THE MEN'S STORE, MONROE AT WABASHDisc and DescantHere are a couple of releases which ought to exciterecord collectors. The Collectors’ Record Shop in NewYork, which specializes in repressings of old and rare! records, has issued two early recordings, one by thefamous baritone, Antonio Scotti, singing two ariasfrom Bellini’s “Sonnambula” and Verdi’s “Aida,” anEdison cylinder made about 1905; the other recordpresents Joseph Jefferson, American actor (1829-1905), who achieved his greatest success in his por¬trayal of Rip Van Winkle. This is a repressing of aColumbia cylinder record made about 1900, and pre¬sents Joe Jefferson in the Mountain Scene and the Re¬turn Home Scene from his own adaptation of Irving’sstory. Both records are remarkably clear (CRS Nos.4 and 5). The Jefferson record will be played at thisFriday’s meeting of the English Club at Ida Noyes.With plenty of gusto, the Chicago Symphony underthe direction of Frederick Stock gives an exciting in¬terpretation to Tchaikovsky’s Nutcracker Suite (Co¬lumbia Set M-395). The Rus.sian and Chinese dancesare rousing, impetuous performances, as they shouldbe, and there is a true foreign flavor to the Trepakand Danse Arabe.The Boston Symphony Orchestra under Serge Kous-sevitzky delivers one of the best renditions of Beeth¬oven’s Symphony No. 2 that I’ve yet heard (VictorAlbum M-625). The recording is excellent—so clearthat you can pick out and follow each individual in¬strument, if you want to be really analytic about it.

It tells of theeffects of the Nazi regime on childwelfare in Germany. The book wasthe result of the joint investigationsof Walter Friedlander, lecturer in theschool of Social Service Administra¬tion at the University, and Earl Mey¬ers, late of the Tulane social servicefaculty.The monograph traces the workthat had been done in Germany be¬fore the Nazi regime in the fields ofpublic assistance and child care. Itpoints out that German social servicework served as a model for the work¬ers of other countries, and traces thereasons why.It then analyzes the effects of Hit¬lerism on social service, tracing care¬fully the “disastrous effects of thenew system in Germany on the insti¬tutions and agencies that had been socarefully developed” before 1933,even under the cruel limitations ofpost-war conditions.North AmericanReview EssayContest ClosesA prize of $150 is offered by theCommittee for Cultural Freedom, inconjunction with the North AmericanReview, for the best essay on the sub¬ject, “The Challenge to CulturalFreedom.” The essay must be sub¬mitted by an undergraduate of 25years of age or under, in any Ameri¬can college or university.Manuscripts must not exceed 3,000words and must be in the office of theCommittee on or before April 15,1940.
