Facts Contest Arch Ward’sPosition on Question.By MARIAN CASTLEMANWhen Arch Ward of the ChicagoTribune claimed that PresidentHutchins was the "unknown spokes¬man’’ who said "You can’t play foot¬ball without being crooked,’’ it wasimmediately suspected that the BigTen Conference would take some ac¬tion to have the University deny, oraffirm the verity of the statement.According to Ward an explanationwas demanded by the Big Ten to bedelivered on or before their nextmeeting. May 25, and at that timeChicago’s membership in the Big Tenwould be challenged. The result ofthis meeting, prophecied Ward, wouldbe the forced withdrawal of the Uni¬versity from the Big Ten.Wrong InterpretationHowever, although three adminis¬tration heads of the University ad¬mitted unofficially that PresidentHutchins was very possibly the un¬known spokesman, they also feel thatthe statement, if correct, was wrong¬ly interpreted. No member of the ad¬ministration would care to support thestatement that other Big Ten schoolsare crooked, but they will admit thatfor the University to compete onequal terms with these other univer¬sities they would have to risk viola¬tion of at least one of the Big Tenrules. This situation is explained byChicago's smaller student enrollmentand the absence of a School of Phys¬ical Education.Thus what Dr. Hutchins (if it washe) meant to say was: "We, the Uni¬versity of Chicago, cannot play foot¬ball with other Big Ten schools with¬out being crooked."Who Has Last WordBut expulsion from the Big Ten be¬cause of this incident does not neces¬sarily follow, according to several ad¬ministrative members.

Rubins, John Stevens,Hart Wurzburg, Marian Castleman. Ernest LeiserNight Editors; Clark Fuller Sergei, Harry Grant .Atkinson. Jr..Morton Lee Pearce.Assistant: Richard von HimmelThe Great UnknownTruth seekers, as all of us are around ex¬amination time, we found ourselves unhappilybaffled last week-end. We were at a loss to un¬derstand what the newspapers say about theBig Ten director’s wanting to hold up ourschedule. Why did they do this; what do theyexpect to get from it? Besides, whatever pro¬gram the directors make up, it has to receivethe final approval of the faculty committee. Sofar this committee has taken no action.With all reliable sources refusing to amplifyour information we had nothing more to go onthan Major Griffith’s statement. This contain¬ed no objections to the position of the Univer¬sity trustees in withdrawing from football, orto the official statements the chairman of theBoard of Trustees and the president of theUniversity issued when this was done.What Major Griffith said the athletic direc¬tors took exception to is the statement of anunknown spokesman that “You can’t play BigTen football without being crooked as far asthe league’s rules are concerned.” Also, theyobjected to the pamphlet containing editorialopinion from all over the country in regard tothe University’s abandoning football. Thispamphlet was brought out by the Alumni Coun¬cil.These things did not clear up any of themystery in our minds about why the Big Tenshould hold up our athletic schedule. Was itbecause the Alumni Council kept its membersinformed concerning the opinions of the nationin regard to our withdrawal from football?Was it because the pamphlet reprinted an ar¬ticle citing specific cases and methods of sub¬sidization, even within the Big Ten? This ar¬ticle had already been circulated in a nationalmagazine. Do the athletic directors considerthe University responsible for anything theAlumni Council does? It seems to us that theUniversity is less responsible for the actionsof this Council than a head coach should be forthe activities of a freshman coach.Then the now classic statement of the “un¬known spokesman” gave us fresh difficulties.Do the athletic directors consider it official?They want it either proved or retracted, thenewspapers say. We think the statementmeans that it is almost impossible to play suc¬cessful Big Ten football without breaking theleague’s rules about subsidization. Does notthe article mentioned earlier present some evi¬dence for this? If the evidence is false, whydidn’t the directors object to the magazinethat published it?For all our guessing, we couldn’t decide onthe identity of the unknown. Then into thedark night of our minds came a glimmer oflight from that shining and indisputablesource of wisdom and truth. Arch Ward wrotein his column that Mr. Hutchins made thestatement at a cocktail party. Far be it fromus to look for clouds on Arch Ward’s veracity.But we feel sorry for Mr. Hutchins if he hasn’tthe freedom to express what is on his mind atcocktail parties. We would hate to have theUniversity considered responsible for anythingwe might say in a similar situation. In factwe are quite sure that we never want Mr. Wardhanging around our cocktail parties. Ihe first possibility involved recruiting by thealumni and this we emphasized. But subsidiza¬tion to the extent we needed it before footballcould become a good thing again for this uni¬versity is illegal, however politely done, so wehad no objections when our administrationchose the second alternative.Our reasons for treating football as onlyaccidental to a university led us into discus¬sions of what is essential—without which aninstitution should not be called a university.We decided this essence lay in the promotion ofintellectual virtues. The fact that some otherpeople may have found this principle true be¬fore w’e did takes nothing away from its truth.We decided that this place meets the re¬quirements for a real university more thanother large coeducational institutions do. But,of course, we couldn’t fool ourselves into be¬lieving it already ideal. Nor do w^e believe itnecessary to rid the school of any accidentaladvantages in order to make it ideal. Rather,it seems important to encourage all pleasur¬able, worthy, and appropriate accidents. Inter¬collegiate football just stopped fitting into thislast category.The tension comes from the Fiftieth An¬niversary fund-raising campaign. The Univer¬sity has to get more money if it is going tocontinue to be even as good as it is now. Thisplaces it in a bitterly ironical situation: togive itself money-getting appeal to those whoare unable to appreciate it for w^hat it is, itmay, some of its administrators seem to think,have to sacrifice a good part of its essence toaccident.The Maroon must fight such a sacrifice.First, it is not necessary — a good publicitycampaign should be able to get money frompeople who don’t think Joe College schools thebest places in the world. Second, the de-em¬phasis of the best things about this universitymight start a habit that could not be thrownoff later on.

In case anyonehas forgotten, that was when we reacted toabolition of football.That our football situation was intolerablelast quarter was a point obvious even withoutour stressing it. Showing that this sport isnot essential to a good university, we statedthat either our conditions of playing it shouldbe improved, or the game should be abandoned. Board of Control,The Daily Maroon:AN OPEN LETTER: An article in Tuesday’s Ma¬roon and the response it evoked in Wednesday’s issuedeserves further examination in order that the studentbody may have all of the facts. The Tuesday articlepurported to give information on the preliminary meet¬ing of the United Student Peace Action Committee.For the most part the information was correct. Butto the extent that it was incomplete and, uninforme<l,it was incorrect. Thus it was that the Joint letter fromBob Boyer, Harriet Augustus, and Esther Durkee wasin great measure justified, for the Maroon article mis¬represented the purpose and scope of the meeting.1. Student leaders were invited to participate in theplans for a united peace action. So were any otherswho were known to be interested in such plans. Theywere not, however, invited to represent their organiza¬tions, for it was generally felt (among members of theKOWC Committee, initiators of this meeting) thatsuch delegation usually led to partisan bickering andwould inevitably defeat the plans for a united peaceaction. Therefore, individuals were invited; on thebasis of individuals it is hoped that a unite<l peaceaction can be formed. For past experience shows thatcampus organizations usually have too little contactbetween leaders and individuals; that the only succes.s-ful way to build a peace action is through the activiza-tion of a broad group of individuals based on theirparticular desire for peace, jobs, and civil rights.2. The Maroon reported that the attempt to forma committee consisting of members from the KOWCand YCAW was voted down. This is correct. For itwas felt that such “delegation” would again lead topartisanship. But the Maroon is absolutely incorrectin reporting that “no further attempt was made toincorporate the latter group (YCAW) in the ‘unified’strike.” For a committee was set up which fairlywell succeeded in ironing out the partisan difficultiesencountered. And the proposals of that committee arebeing presented to the larger body (United StudentPeace Action Committee) tonight.3. The Maroon conveniently forgot to mention inits report of the Friday meeting that:a. Issues were presented from an analyticalpoint of view. Slogans were utilized in orderto press home with more force the immediateaims of the student body. After all, every-time you ask for peace, jobs, and civil rights,you shouldn’t have to go into a long ha-ranque and scientific demonstration to provethe need for these things!b. The entire program is a broad one coveringminimum points of agreement with allgroups. Regardless of partisanship, allgroups can function well within this frame¬work. The vital needs are American needs:PEACE, JOBS, CIVIL RIGHTS.Very Sincerely,For the Keep-Out-Of-War CongressM. L. ROBINSONTuesday’s article named certain student leaders asbeing among those invited to help work for the Con¬gress. From the letter we received from these studentswe believed they refused as individuals. While theydidn’t question the need for “peace, jobs, and civilrights’’ they seemed skeptical of the efficacy of theKeep-Out-of-the War Congress in achieving thesethings.

MARCH 16, 1940Gastroscope Pre-ViewAids 225 SpecialistsInstrument Reduces Neces-8ity of Operation in Stom*ach Cases.By the end of 1940, more than 226American-trained specialists will beequipped to examine patients’ stom¬achs without resorting to surgery, Dr.Arthur C. Bachmeyer, director of theUniversity of Chicago Clinics, reveal¬ed in an interview yesterday.Dr. Bachmeyer’s comment came onthe sixth anniversary of the intro¬duction of the invention, the flexiblegastroscope, into this country by Dr.Rudolf Schindler.Ten years ago, regular visual ex¬aminations of the interior of a pa¬tient’s stomach would have been im¬possible unless the patient underwentan abdominal operation.New Stomach TubeToday, the small flexible tube—lessthan a yard long and encasing a com¬plex system of fine optical lensessmaller than a dime—is making suchexaminations readily possible in leading hospitals throughout the country.Dr. Schindler joined the Universityof Chicago faculty in 1934. Since per¬fection of the device, hailed by spe¬cialists as the most important develop¬ment in the technique of examiningthe stomach since the perfection ofthe X-ray, 200 physicians have beentrained at the University in its usein diseases of the stomach and in¬testinal tract.The gastroscope is a small tubeabout 30 inches long and smaller indiameter than a man’s little finger,which encases a series of 48 lenses,each of which must be optically per¬fect. The tube can be bent to an an¬gle of 30 degrees and still present aclear picture of the object. Also with¬in this small space are an air passage,allowing the examiner to inflate thestomach for examination; and wirescarrying current to the tiny electricbulb at the head of the tube.Only Few MinutesDr. Schindler has so far perfectedthe technique of gastroscopy that theentire examination takes only a fewminutes, said Dr. Bachmeyer.Such a diagnosis permits more in¬telligent treatment. The use of therubber tip on the device has addedsafety. Not one fatality has occurredsince it has been used.The new device makes possible theroutine diagnosed and treatment ofchronic gastritis, which for more thanthirty years baffled scientists becauseit was impossible to diagnose.“Occasionally patients who aretired, nervous, and weak have beendiagnosed as suffering from a mentaldisorder known as phychoneurosis,”Dr. Bachmeyer explained. “Use of thegastroscope has at times shown thatsuch patients in many cases are reallysuffering from a chronic inflammationof the delicate mucous membranewhich lines the stomach.”Use in CancerThe gastroscope is of major impor¬tance in dignosing cancer in its earlystages, according to Dr. Bachmeyer.It reveals the cancerous tissue trans¬mitting not only the color and shapeof the lesion but its texture as well.The gastroscope has also revealedthat there are many different types ofgastric cancer. Dr. Bachmeyer said.If present hopes are confirmed, thedevice will further aid medical scienceby making classification of these typespossible, and thus facilitating theirtreatment.The gastroscope has also .disclosedthe close connection between diseasesof the blood and stomach inflamma¬tions, the director said.Post •'<»rative patients who developnew Sj. jms following operationsmay be shown by the gastroscope ac¬tually to be suffering from renewedinflammation or ulceration, he said.The patients are thus demonstrablysuffering from physical and not men¬tal disorders.Does Not Replace X-rayThe gastroscope, though invaluable,does not replace the X-ray, Dr. Bach¬meyer emphasized.

Dr. Schindler began exper¬imenting with the instrument lookir/gfor some better method of stomachexamination when he was a physicianin a hospital in Munich, Germany. Hehad heard of a rigid gastroscope andprocured one, but decided after a shorttime that such a device was far toodangerous for regular clinical use.With the assistance of a lens maker,he developed the flexible gastroscope,with lenses placed in the tube at shortintervals. Two years following hisdiscovery he was named to his presentpost in the University of Chicagomedical school.

Harry Grant ,.Vtkinson, Jr..Morton Lee Pearce.Assistant: Richard von HimmelThe Great UnknownTruth seekers, as all of us are around ex¬amination time, vi^e found ourselves unhappilybaffled last week-end. We were at a loss to un¬derstand what the newspapers say about theBig Ten director’s wanting to hold up ourschedule. Why did they do this; what do theyexpect to get from it? Besides, whatever pro¬gram the directors make up, it has to receivethe final approval of the faculty cornmittee. Sofar this committee has taken no action. |With all reliable sources refusing to amplify Iour information we had nothing more to go onthan Major Griffith’s statement. This contain-1ed no objections to the position of the Univer-1sity trustees in withdrawing from football, orto the official statements the chairman of theBoard of Trustees and the president of theUniversity issued when this was done.What Major Griffith said the athletic direc¬tors took exception to is the statement of anunknown spokesman that “You can’t play BigTen football without being crooked as far asthe league’s rules are concerned.” Also, theyobjected to the pamphlet containing editorialopinion from all over the country in regard tothe University’s abandoning football. Thispamphlet was brought out by the Alumni Coun¬cil. iThese things did not clear up any of themystery in our minds about why the Big Tenshould hold up our athletic schedule. Was itbecause the Alumni Council kept its membersinformed concerning the opinions of the nationin regard to our withdrawal from football?Was it because the pamphlet reprinted an ar¬ticle citing specific cases and methods of sub¬sidization, even within the Big Ten? This ar¬ticle had already been circulated in a nationalmagazine. Do the athletic directors considerthe University responsible for anything theAlumni Council does? It seems to us that the!University is less responsible for the actionsof this Council than a head coach should be forthe activities of a freshman coach.Then the now classic statement of the “un¬known spokesman” gave us fresh difficulties.Do the athletic directors consider it official?They want it either proved or retracted, thenewspapers say. We think the statementmeans that it is almost impossible to play suc¬cessful Big Ten football without breaking theleague’s rules about subsidization. Does notthe article mentioned earlier present some evi¬dence for this? If the evidence is false, whydidn’t the directors object to the magazinethat published it?For all our guessing, we couldn’t decide onthe identity of the unknown. Then into thedark night of our minds came a glimmer oflight from that shining and indisputablesource of wisdom and truth. Arch Ward wrotein his column that Mr. Hutchins made thestatement at a cocktail party. Far be it fromus to look for clouds on Arch Ward’s veracity.But we feel sorry for Mr. Hutchins if he hasn’tthe freedom to express what is on his mind atcocktail parties. We would hate to have theUniversity considered responsible for anythingwe might say in a similar situation. In factwe are quite sure that we never want Mr. Wardhanging around our cocktail parties.Tomorrow and TomorrowThe issue discussed above recalls the excite¬ment that began this quarter. In case anyonehas forgotten, that was when we reacted toabolition of football.That our football situation was intolerablelast quarter was a point obvious even withoutour stressing it. Showing that this sport isnot essential to a good university, we statedthat either our conditions of playing it shouldbe improved, or the game should be abandoned. THE DAILY MAROON, FRIDAY, MARCH 15, 1940Ihe first possibility involved recruiting by thealumni and this we emphasized. But subsidiza¬tion to the extent we needed it before footballcould become a good thing again for this uni¬versity is illegal, however politely done, so wehad no objections when our ^ministrationchose the second alternative.Our reasons for treating football as onlyaccidental to a university led us into discus¬sions of what is essential—without which aninstitution should not be called a university.We decided this essence lay in the promotion ofintellectual virtues. The fact that some otherpeople may have found this principle true be¬fore we did takes nothing away from its truth.We decided that this place meets the re¬quirements for a real university more thanother large coeducational institutions do. But,of course, we couldn’t fool ourselves into be¬lieving it already ideal. Nor do we believe itnecessary to rid the school of any accidentaladvantages in order to make it ideal. Rather,it seems important to encourage all pleasur¬able, worthy, and appropriate accidents. Inter¬collegiate football just stopped fitting into thislast category.The tension comes from the Fiftieth An¬niversary fund-raising campaign. The Univer¬sity has to get more money if it is going tocontinue to be even as good as it is now. Thisplaces it in a bitterly ironical situation: togive itself money-getting appeal to those whoare unable to appreciate it for what it is, itmay, some of its administrators seem to think,have to sacrifice a good part of its essence toaccident.The Maroon must fight such a sacrifice.First, it is not necessary — a good publicitycampaign should be able to get money frompeople who don’t think Joe College schools thebest places in the world. Second, the de-em¬phasis of the best things about this universitymight start a habit that could not be thrownoff later on.Letters To The EditorBoard of Control,The Daily Maroon:AN OPEN LETTER: An article in Tuesday’s Ma¬roon and the response it evoked in Wednesday’s issuedeserves further examination in order that the studentbody may have all of the facts. The Tuesday articlepurported to give information on the preliminary meet¬ing of the United Student Peace .Action Committee.For the most part the information was correct. Rutto the extent that it was incomplete and uninforme<l,it was incorrect. Thus it was that the joint letter fromBob Boyer, Harriet Augustus, and Esther Durkee wasin great measure justified, for the Maroon article mis¬represented the purpose and scope of the meeting.1. Student leaders were invited to participate in theplans for a united peace action. So were any otherswho were known to be interested in such plans. Theywere not, however, invited to represent their organiza¬tions, for it was generally felt (among members of theKOWC Committee, initiators of this meeting) thatsuch delegation usually led to partisan bickering andwould inevitably defeat the plans for a united peaceaction. Therefore, individuals were invited; on thebasis of individuals it is hoped that a united peaceaction can be formed. For past experience shows thatcampus organizations usually have too little contactbetween leaders and individuals; that the only succes.s-ful way to build a peace action is through the activiza-tion of a broad group of individuals based on theirparticular desire for peace, jobs, and civil rights.2. The Maroon reported that the attempt to forma committee consisting of members from the KOWCand YCAW was voted down. This is correct. For itwas felt that such “delegation” would again lead topartisanship. But the Maroon is absolutely incorrectin reporting that “no further attempt was made toincorporate the latter group (YCAW) in the ‘unified’strike.” For a committee was set up which fairlywell succeeded in ironing out the partisan difficultie.sencountered. And the proposals of that committee arebeing presented to the larger body (United StudentPeace Action Committee) tonight.3. The Maroon conveniently forgot to mention inits report of the Friday meeting that:a. Issues were presented from an analyticalpoint of view. Slogans were utilized in orderto press home with more force the immediateaims of the student body. After all, every-time you ask for peace, jobs, and civil rights,you shouldn’t have to go into a long ha-ranque and scientific demonstration to provethe need for these things!b. The entire program is a broad one coveringminimum points of agreement with allgroups. Regardless of partisanship, allgroups can function well within this frame¬work. The vital needs are American needs:PEACE, JOBS, CIVIL RIGHTS.Very Sincerely,For the Keep-Out-Of-War CongressM. L. ROBINSONTuesday’s article named certain student leaders asbeinrj among those invited to help ivork for the Con¬gress. From the letter we received from these studentswe believed they refused as individuals. While theydidn’t question the need for "peace, jobs, and civilrights” they seemed skeptical of the efficacy of theKeep-Out-of-the War Congress in achieving thesethings.

MARCH 16, 1940Gastroscope Pre-ViewAids 225 Specialists Page ThreeInstrument Reduces Neces¬sity of Operation in Stom¬ach Cases.By the end of 1940, more than 225American-trained specialists will beequipped to examine patients’ stom¬achs without resorting to surgery, Dr.Arthur C. Bachmeyer, director of theUniversity of Chicago Clinics, reveal¬ed in an interview yesterday.Dr. Bachmeyer’s comment came onthe sixth anniversary of the intro¬duction of the invention, the flexiblegastroscope, into this country by Dr.Kudolf Schindler.Ten years ago, regular visual ex¬aminations of the interior of a pa¬tient’s stomach would have been im¬possible unless the patient underwentan abdominal operation.New Stomach TubeToday, the small flexible tube—lessthan a yard long and encasing a com¬plex system of fine optical lensessmaller than a dime—is making suchexaminations readily possible in leading hospitals throughout the country.Dr. Schindler joined the Universityof Chicago faculty in 1934. Since per¬fection of the device, hailed by spe¬cialists as the most important develop¬ment in the technique of examiningthe stomach since the perfection ofthe X-ray, 200 physicians have beentrained at the University in its usein diseases of the stomach and in¬testinal tract.The gastroscope is a small tubeabout 30 inches long and smaller indiameter than a man’s little finger,which encases a series of 48 lenses,each of which must be optically per¬fect. The tube can be bent to an an¬gle of 30 degrees and still present aclear picture of the object. Also with¬in this small space are an air passage,allowing the examiner to inflate thestomach for examination; and wirescarrying current to the tiny electricbulb at the head of the tube.Only Few MinutesDr. Schindler has so far perfectedthe technique of gastroscopy that theentire examination takes only a fewminutes, said Dr. Bachmeyer.Such a diagnosis permits more in¬telligent treatment. The use of therubber tip on the device has addedsafety. Not one fatality has occurredsince it has been used.The new device makes possible theroutine diagnosed and treatment ofchronic gastritis, which for more thanthirty years baflfled scientists becauseit was impossible to diagnose.“Occasionally patients who aretired, nervous, and weak have beendiagnosed as suffering from a mentaldisorder know-n as phychoneurosis,”Dr. Bachmeyer explained. “Use of thegastroscope has at times shown thatsuch patients in many cases are reallysuffering from a chronic inflammationof the delicate mucous membranewhich lines the stomach.”Use in CancerThe gastroscope is of major impor¬tance in dignosing cancer in its earlystages, according to Dr. Bachmeyer.It reveals the cancerous tissue trans¬mitting not only the color and shapeof the lesion but its texture as well.The gastroscope has also revealedthat there are many different types ofgastric cancer. Dr. Bachmeyer said.If present hopes are confirmed, thedevice will further aid medical scienceby making classification of these typespossible, and thus facilitating theirtreatment.The gastroscope has also .disclosedthe close connection between diseasesof the blood and stomach inflamma¬tions, the director said.Post-operative patients who developnew symptoms following operationsmay be shown by the gastroscope ac¬tually to be suffering from renewedinflammation or ulceration, he said.The patients are thus (temonstrablysuffering from physical and not men¬tal disorders.Does Not Replace X-rayThe gastroscope, though invaluable,does not replace the X-ray, Dr. Bach¬meyer emphasized.

Zach was born in a covered wagonenroute from Texas to Pueblo, Colorado. The heralding of his arrival causedPoppa Bates, in a flurry of apprehensive excitement, to rein the oxen to theside of the wagon path, and a subsequent three-day delay.From the gentle nurturing of Pueblo steel mills and public schools, he setout at the age of 18; for the golden East, At twenty-three, he came to thegreat metropolis of Chicago, which unfortunately was sooty. And so in Marchof 1913 the green pastures of the University of Chicago beckoned and throughthe influence of a friend, Zack procured employment in Blaine.MANY FORMER SMOKERS OFEXPENSIVE PIPES NOW PREFERJxjewoR w ^ ^ ^MEDICO T-tAYO NLY filter combininginterior and cellopfa 6S baffleane exte¬rior, keeps nicotine, juices, flakesout of mouthrNo breaking in.'No tongue bite^,Breaks ^up hotsmoke, hence'mild, healthyGENUINE FILTERSFOR MEDICO FIFESFMKEOONir MINISNEO a RUCK ROXFor YourCOLLEGENIGHTENJOYMENT★EVERY FRIDAYProfessional Floor ShowsGay College ShowDancing ivith Ted Weems★Get Half Rate Student Tickets atPress Building or Maroon OfficeEDGEWATERBEACH HOTEL5300 Block Sheridan Road/l^r Page Six THE DAILY MAROON, FRIDAY, MSim VaUey Holds SkiMeet During VacationOpen New Lift to Top ofBaldy Mountain for Tourney.By R. C. POAMWith a new ski lift on Baldy Moun¬tain opening up more exciting ski ter¬rain, Sun Valley announces the Wom¬an’s East-West Ski Meet, on March 16and 17, and the National Downhill,Slalom and Combined Championshipsheld on the 22, 23 and 24 in conjunc¬tion with the fourth annual competi¬tion for the Harriman trophy. Plansfor these two outstanding ski meetsof the spring, sponsored by Mrs. Dud¬ley Wolfe thru the Sun Valley SkiClub are about complete.Dick Durrance, secretary of the SkiClub, and himself twice winner of theHarriman trophy, believes that althothe war may cut foreign participationin the meet, special invitations to theoutstanding skiers of the country willbring the entrys up, and again provethat the “Sun Valley Open Ski Meethas become the classic downhill andslalom event of the country, and hasattracted more famous skiers, bothfrom America and abroad, than anyother ski event.”Among those expected to partici¬pate are Alf Engen, last year’s win¬ner of the national cross-country andjumping championships one of thecountry’s outstanding jumpers.Durrance will compete again thisyear, and since last year’s w inner,Peter Radacher, won’t be able to,competitors will have to battle hardto beat him in his try for permanentpossession of the cup.Friedl Pfeifer, 1936 winner of thefamed Arlberg Kandaher and presentU. S, Open Slalom champion, is alsoexpected to defend his title. Othersthat will compete are Don Fraser, U.S. Olympic skier and Pacific North¬west Combined championship winnerin 1938; Harold Hillman, of Hanover,New Hampshire, 1939 winner of theVermont downhill and slalom cham¬pionships; Ted Hunter, of Hanover,former Dartmouth skier and memberof the ’36 Olympic squad; Fred Iselm,Ski Club de Chammonix, France, sla¬lom winner in the InternationalDownhill and Slalom at Cisco, Cali¬fornia in 1939; Alfred D. Lindley, ofMinneapolis, winner of the combinedCentral Ski Association champion¬ships at Bush Lake in 1939 andOlympic veteran.An invitation had been extended tothe famous Toni Matt, who won thedownhill in this event last year, andit i.** hoped he will be able ta compete.Others expe.«.ied are Carl Neu, oftbyt University of W'ashington, twicewinner of the slalom event in the SunValley Intercollegiate Ski meets;Walter Prager, of the Dartmouth Out¬ing Club, who won the Alberg Kanda¬har in 1930 and ’33 and who placedsecond in the four events combined inlast year’s Sun Valley Open; JohnLitchfield, of the Sun Valley SkiSchool staff, an outstanding jumper;Percy Rideout, of Dartmouth, winnerof the combined Intercollegiate cham¬pionships last year; Steve Bradley, ofMadison, Wis., first winner of theBradley Plate, the beautiful trophyawarded each year to the winner ofthe four-event combined in the SunValley Intercollegiate Meet.A serious threat even to such stel¬lar competition as this will be 18 yearold Bobby Blatt of Palo Alto, Cali¬fornia, who stole the show at the re¬cent Sun Valley Interstate Ski Meetby winning the downhill and slalomevents hands down from some of theoutstanding skiers of the west.Women entrants will be Marian“Sis” McKean, Clarita Heath of Pas¬adena, Calif., winner of the Far WestKandahar at Yosemite last spring,Betty Woolsey, Gertrude Wepsala,Grace Carter, Lindley and GretchenFraser, Pacific Northwest Championin downhill and slalom.An interesting note to watch in thetournament will be the times scoredby Friedl Pfeifer and Marian McKeanin the slalom events. Last year, “Sis”McKean ran the slalom course in buta fraction of a second slower thanPfeifer, but a penalty lowered herranking. This year, if she can dupli¬cate the feat, without the penalty, thespectators will get an added thrill.All divisions of the National SkiAssociation will be represented, andthe probable site of the races will be9,200 foot Baldy Mountain, which of¬fers some of the finest ski runs inAmerica. The contestants and specta¬tors will have the benefit of the quar- *ter million dollar electric chair ski jlift to the summit of Baldy Mountain,the longest ski lift in America.The race is scheduled to be run on a timber trail which in two miles,drops to the base of the mountain,some 3,000 feet below. The trail dif¬fers from most in that undergrowthand small trees have been clearedfrom the course fifty feet beyond theusual distance giving the racer thechoice of either swinging down inlinked turns, or of cutting straightthrough the open timber. The top por¬tion of the run, known as the “WarmSprings Run”, will be studded withslalom flags, to guide the racers alongthe best route and to add to theirsafety. Eight control gates wereplaced here last year.After the control gates comes asteep pitch or “still-hang”, which is300 feet long. Once over this portion,the course becomes one long series ofsweeping turns, providing the finestkind of downhill skiing. Abruptly atthe finish, there is a sharp curve tothe right and a smooth straightschuss.Since last year’s winner of the Har¬riman cup, Peter Radacher, will notbe competing this year, contestantswill have to battle hard to down DickDurrance, who is anxious to score histhird victory and win permanent pos¬session of the trophy.Because of the large crowd of spec¬tators on hand to watch both theWomen’s East-West Ski Meet and theNational Championships, in all prob¬ability jump exhibitions will be stagedby the better of the jumpers amongthe competitors for the audiences’amusement. Hold Annual IdaNoyes Student ArtShotv This QuarterThe Annual Student Art Show e>hibited at Ida Noyes Hall will thiyear run from April 14 to 20.

The picture of the toughish-wonderful Tallman looks like acomposite study of Katherine Hepburn and the Virgin Mary. Not that it’sCap and Gown’s fault, but the Tallman spectacle is worth the price of C and Gadmission.The marriage of.. .true art hits the campus hard soon when Clark Sergei, DArty directorand blonde Meg Hamilton get hitched.

Most readers know too, the Maroon has pro- Iduced a Spanish war baby which they covet with all their soul and 40 cents a ,month. The baby is in a camp in France and does nice things for its herma-phroflitic parent, the Maroon.Temporary hitch in the baby’s future safety appeared yesterday whenthe “Spanish Refugee Relief Campaign” which sponsors the whole orphanplan sent the Maroon a pretty booklet describing the whole of its activities.Everything was very impressive except the clothing committee. It seems thechairman of the clothing committee is Gypsy Rose Lee. “Gadzooks,” said theMaroon, “our baby must be cold.” jFrom S— to.. .soul is the tragic path of Pulse covers. But nice soul it is, too, and itbelongs to Beverly Ward.

If I didn’t know better, I’d think from the Pulse cover that La Wardis bald like a billiard ball. Oh, well you can’t have a soul and hair, too.Nomination for...the ideal couple of the year is Lenny Turovlin and Virginia Brown,too bad.Embryo Lawyers Search in Vain forLoop-Holes in Bar ConstitutionBy RICHARD PHILBRICKEven embryo lawyers working enmasse sometimes run into unsur-mountable legal difficulties, or so itwould appear. Members of the LawSchool Bar Association could not finda loop-hole in the constitution oftheir organization which would per¬mit them to hold their annual elec¬tion of officers during the third weekof March, and it had to be postponed.What, A Legal Snag?The difficulties first arose whenthe question came up of whether athird year student on the School’sfour year study plan could be a can¬didate for president of the Associa¬tion. According to the pertinentclause of the Association’s constitu¬tion, only Seniors, meaning studentsin their last year, could be candidatesfor the presidency. This venerabledocument was drawn up before fouryear students were admitted to theschool, and many members felt it should be reinterpreted.A meeting was therefore held atwhich a motion was passed to so in¬terpret the clause in question thatsuch a candidacy would be allowed.But it was not to be settled as easilyas that, for more informed legalminds opposed the motion saying thatit was itself illegal, and their opinionprevailed.Election ManeuveringThe frustrated members of the as¬sociation who supported the measurethen brought out the clause in theconstitution which says that the elec¬tion must be held in April, anyway.Then while they laughed in theircooky-dusters, it was decided to post¬pone the election to a later date andmeanwhile draw up a new constitu¬tion, submit it to the dean, and getreinstated as a recognized campus or¬ganization.To pariphrase someone.

MARCH 15, 1940How To TellTree’s Age IsDiscussedHutchins Is Host to Busi¬ness Leaders Who HearExperts.The science of dating: prehistoricIndian cultures by analyzing tree-rings will be discussed at a luncheontoday at 12:30 at International Houseby a dozen business leaders and Uni¬versity of Chicago representatives.President Robert M. Hutchins will bethe host.Tree-ring dating is employed by theUniversity anthropologists in classify¬ing remains of Indian villages andmounds in analyzing the formation ofthe rings on the timbers found in thesites.Prompted by the need for exactdating in studying the past, Univer¬sity of Chicago scientists severalyears ago began the compilation of a“master chart" for the Middle Miss¬issippi region which shows thebreadth of circular growth of treesfor a period of almost two thousandyears.With their master chart now com¬piled, the scientists can authoritative¬ly analyze the timber and tell theyear the tree sprouted, when it wascut, and the year it was used in theIndian’s huts.The luncheon Friday will be fol¬lowed by a showing of a movie, “Bot¬toms Up,” depicting the progress ofa University of Chicago excavationon the Kincaid site near Paducah, Ky.,where the scientists excavated andclassified more than 100,000 objects,traces of an Indian culture whichflourished centuries before white menpenetrated into the region. Some ofthe businessmen-guests have partic¬ipated in this work.Guests at the luncheon will include:General Charles G. Dawes, chairmanof the board. City National Bank andTrust Company of Chicago, JudgeEvan Evans of the U. S. Circuit Courtof Appeals, Herbert Friedman, attor¬ney, Thomas Heed, chairman of theboard, Edward Hines Lumber Com¬pany, Eli Lilly, president, Eli Lilly &Co., Paul Russell, Edward L. Ryer-son, Jr., and Harold H. Swift, trus¬tees of the University, and Fay-Coop¬er Cole, Emery T. Filbey, Ralph W.Tyler, and John A. Wilson of the Uni¬versity of Chicago faculty. Letters To The EditorBoard of Control,The Daily Maroon:In spite of the fact that the Maroonis inaccurate, unrepresentative, andundeservedly vain, I feel that it isyour duty to print this letter praisingour campus newsmagazine. The edi¬tors of Pulse have come forward in aperfectly unbiased fashion to defendthe much-maligned, lily-white Stu¬dent Social Committee. They haveclearly shown that the SSC has beentreated unjustly at least three timesthis year.First of all, in regard to the Christ¬mas Carnival, Pulse made the amaz¬ing scoop (which was printed in lastmonth’s issue too) that the Maroonhad “garnished the total profits, gaveno credit whatsoever to the SSCwhich obtained the room and the or¬chestra." The truth is that there wasan agreement to the effect that theMaroon should garnish all profits,and the Maroon’s chairman really gotthe orchestra, but it was certainly lowof the ‘Daily sheet’ not to give morecredit to the SSC for obtaining theroom. It’s so hard to arrange for adance in Ida Noyes.Then poor oppressed “Reynoldsreceived further setbacks. Inthe fall Iron Mask Homecoming Dancehe and John Stevens laid the arrange¬ments before Dean Randall, reachedan agreement.” Of course, the orig¬inal agreement, to the effect that thework and profits would be shared onthe same basis as they were the yearbefore, was reached last spring. ThenReynolds succeeded in having theagreement changed slightly (so thatIron Mask received under $40, insteadof approximately $90, as they wouldhave under the original agreement).Then that heel Stevens starts cryingin his beer, yelping, etc. Can youimagine such poor sportsmanship asgriping about that square deal, es¬pecially at the expense of Bob Rey¬nolds who has so many worries?“To insure that no future commit¬tee would become a tool of one pow¬erful fraternity faction, . . . the SSCvoted that only one man from a houseshould retain a post on the futureSSC." It’s a good thing they madethis rule in time, for Schmus and Huf-faker were on the verge of dominatingthe seven-man committee. Also justbecause these two had worked harderthan any other juniors is no reasonfor putting them both on the commit¬tee. Thank goodness, there is one publi¬cation left on campus that fairlytreats both sides of a story. I’ll betPulse talked to both Bob Reynoldsand the Chairman of the SSC beforewriting their article.Yours,John Stevens.P.S. ‘Schmus’ is not spelled‘Schmoos’.ClassifiedFOR RENT — Desirable 2 room apt., nicelyfurnished and decorated.
