It pre¬sented its first student-written, stu-dent-acte<l, student-directed play.What was even more commendable,it presented a good all-student play.For writing “Front Room,” Wil¬liam Wilkerson deserves high praise.His work was a thoroughly realisticstory of conflict in a Middle-Westerntown, which although lacking artis¬tic polish, had the merits of sincerity,and an apparently perfect knowledgeof the kind of life it portrayed. Playswith a message are a difficult taskfor an experienced playwright to ex¬ecute, so Wilkerson does not deserveblame for the fact that his messagefaile<l to be perfectly clear to the au¬dience. Apparently he intended it tobe a sardonic glance at the influenceof politics, with its concomitants ofgraft and crooked political dealings,on the lives of the little people at itsmercy, but this was not made espe¬cially comprehensible.For directing the action of “FrontRoom” cleverly and for interpretingwith more than a superficial sym¬pathy, Dick Himmel certainly de¬serves praise.And by her acting as the Middle-W e s t, anglicized version of an“.4 wake and Sing” mother, GraceFarjeon one-show DA veteran provedApril 30, May 1 and 2 will bring the that she is without doubt one of theReynolds Club Bridge Tournament, top DActors, and the best and mostbacked by the fraternities and the In- understanding actre.ss in the other-terclub Council.

Sue Null and Bill Westen-berg handle their minor roles negli¬gently.*One of the two real veterans in thecast played her part amazingly well.Terry Colangelo as the family bread¬winner, had a sweet-sick role, butkept it from being nauseating withprofessional skill. The other seasonedactor, Pete Atwater, worked hard amisincerely, but failed to be convincingas the tragic character of Pa Pres¬cott, whose political ideals in hishumble situation can’t stand againstpolitical reality.Because of the acting and directing,“Front Room” is a play worth seeingas a play. This delighted the audi¬ence which came, expecting to seeingit only as an interesting experiment.Finally, assistant director MarkFisher was entertaining and quiteaudible as prompter.

Registration musttake place between April 16 and April29 at the Reynolds Club desk.Cups will be given to each memberof the winning team, and consolationcups will be awarded to the otherteam in the play-offs.This year’s tournament will be runon the match-point duplicate systemso that skill alone will be the decidingfactor. Under this system, each teamis split into pairs, and in the courseof one evening will have a chance toplay both pairs of hands on each ofthe duplicate boards.Student Forum QuitsMeetings for QuarterForum directors A1 Pitcher andJacob Ochstein announce that theregular Wednesday meeting of theStudent Forum will be discontinuedfor the remainder of the quarter forobvious reasons.“Propaganda and Newspapers” willbe presented in a Round Table by Joe.Molkup, PC Rubins, Jim Burtle, andJim Engle at the Institute for SocialScience, 708 N.

Prominentspeakers are promised. After the rallya parade is planned for studentswhose emotions desire such an out¬let. Present plans also call for a peaceball to be held in the Reynqlds ClubFriday night. The strike is not identi¬fied with any inclividual peace mbve-ments. Tickets for the annual MaroonHutchins dinner go on general saletoday at noon. Previous to that time,admissions to the dinner, which isscheduled for Thursday night, werelimited to campus leaders.The Hutchins dinner which is fastbecoming a tradition will differ great¬ly this year from previous banquets.Instead of the President’s deliveringa prepared speech and then answer¬ing a few questions, the entire timewill be thrown open to questions bystudents. The give and take betweenHutchins and the students will giveall students a chance to demand an¬swers to any questions concerningany of Hutchins’ educational or ad¬ministrative policies.Off the RecordHutchins’ answers will be off therecord, and no report of them will ap¬pear either in the Maroon or in theother city dailies. Because of the na¬ture of the dinner, it has often beencompared to Washington’s famedGridiron dinner, where the Presidentof the United States talks off the rec¬ord to Washington newshawks.It is rumored that a number of stu¬dents are planning a direct fire ofquestions on President Hutchins’ edu¬cational policies, and they hope to usehis own dialetical procedure to makehim retract several of his statementsin “The Higher Learning in America.”Although the President will be on thespot, it was at his suggestion that theMaroon inaugurate the dinner, and hefurthermore suggested the question¬ing technique.Tickets, at one dollar, are availableat the University Information office,the Maroon office or from membersof the Maroon staff.\DA StarsLaughAt Own JokesBy SALLY ADAMSThe DA Spring Revival, “GoodbyeAgain” is a certtiin success, if the au¬dience enjoys seeing it as much as thecast enjoys rehearsing it. The Reviv¬al, which opens April 26, has been inrehearsal for the past two weeks de¬spite Blackfriar competitidn.The Tower Room has been thescene of the hilarious,, antics of thebest campus actors and the cleverestcampus comedians every night from7:30 on during rehearsal weeks. Givenat last a dramatic vehicle in whichtheir love for the lascivious is givenfree play, Hattie Paine, Grant Atkin¬son, and Dick Himmel mug every line,and add six more meanings to thesophisticated double talk alreadywritten into the show.Mr. Randall’s restraining hand onhis charges has been' light, becausethe clever com^dj^ tickles his sense ofthe inappropriate as much as it doeshis cast. The “boss’ ” directing so farhas been concerned mostly with keep¬ing unruly meanings from being readinto lines, instead of the usual dra¬matic director’s frantic efforts tomake the players mean^ something intheir dialogue.Loewenstein Talks onReconstruction PlanProfessor Karl Loewenstein of Am¬herst College will lecture today on“A Realistic Plan for the Reconstruc¬tion of Europe.” The lecture, whichis being sponsored by the Law Schooland the Political Science depart¬ment, will be given in Law North at4:30.The speaker is a German andwhile in Germany taught at the Uni¬versity of Munich in the fields of lawand political science. He began histeaching career in this country atYale, later moving to Amherst wherehe holds a full professorship. “Hit¬ler’s Germany, Nazi Background toWar,” his latest book, was publishedin November. Many of his past writ¬ings have been concerned with thequestion of civil rights in tolitarianstates.r IMPERFECT IN ORIGINAL Iron MaskElects; OxieSmells Phi DeltBy DAVID MARTIN“Sometimes,” said Oxie to your re¬porter as he stepped across 57th streetgoing South, “there’s a smell in theair and you can’t tell exactly what itis. But I hear how some of the IronMask boys up until 4:20 this morningpicking successors and I see JohnnyStevens sneak into the Maroon officeand drop the new list on the desk andcreep away looking kind of ashamed,and I think maybe that’s it. Still, Ican’t tell for sure. Who did you saywas the third Phi Delt?”“Dekes got four men, and the AlphaDelts, and Phi Delts got two — nothree — brothers in the society.

In recent monthswe have become accustomed to crazy jumblingsand switchings of ideological loyalties. Thewedding of Communism and National Social¬ism left the world too stunned and disillusion¬ed to be surprized at anything.The Political Union affair, of' course, wasonly a farce, and by the grace of that fact doesnot deserve to be taken seriousl^. Serious soulswho do not know the Union from the inside,could have easily been fooled, but if anyone didattach real significance to the incident he haspassed it off with a shrug.

By FLORIAN & RUMLAfter Their Initiationceremonies last Monday night, Chi¬cago’s Psi Us took a slight trip toNorthwestern to serenade whoeverfelt like being serenaded. As theirlustry baritone and bass voices rangout over the square, one of the silentmembers — probably Bob Reynolds —noted far in the background some ofthe finest harmonizing in history.Whereupon our boys shut their mouthsand listened. At that moment the president of NU’sI-F came up and said the Michigan glee club was hold¬ing a little function there that evening. Chicago PsiUs quickly left.Like the Marooh and Pulse, Blackfriars has to havea girl. Johnny Bex says, “Vivian Leigh—of GWTW,you know—is giving up her perform¬ance Saturday night to come to seeour show.” The Leigh OrientationCommittee will be Mortar Boards—the whole club—who expect to haveMiss Leigh over for lunch Thursday.We just saw Ira Click coming intoLexington Hall with a girl we’ve seenhim running around with lately. She,luckily, has escaped our acquaintanceso far. We don’t want to accuse Ira of anything, butshe looks as though she might be his sister.Add Famous Opinionsof Blackfriars. Said Bill Harper, Blackfriars’ young¬est star, about the Dance of Germs: “There’s nothing Ican do about it. When I’m in the mood I just sort oflet myself go. Or something.”Local Chi Psis and Phi Delts are contending strong¬ly for the number one slumming party this Saturdaynight. Chi Psis will give their perennial cushion party.We guess we don’t have to tell you anything about it.But the Phi Delts—well! They promise that Californiawill come to Chicago in the form of a Fisherman’sWharf (with or without the smell; Bex didn’t tell us).Said Bex, “That cushion stuff is all right for loving,but for a good, moral party, the Silly Strut is the finestfraternity party of the Spring Quarter.”Ernie Leiser is still going to the Chi Psi affair.Asked whether that was an extra cushion he wascarrying, Ernie said, “Cushion hell! That was mywife.”We Watchedthe Coffee Shop hounds sharpening up for the Rey¬nolds Club bridge tournament and saw the Jernberg-Warren bid six clubs—which in this case was an im¬possible contract—, then saw R.

Apparently Crockerdoes do something besides turn the records at the dormdances, and Darragh isn’t quite as depraved as wethought. We wonder if that issue went through themail to the Alumni. Or if they were sent Spicy Detec¬tive stories instead. Ojcie—(Continued from page one)team outfielder and Maroon reporter,are going to represent Psi U. Nowthey’re good boys but not as good asthe Phi Delts, because the Phi Deltsgot three men. Now in the HCAA weonce had a case where some of theboys pulled a filibuster and black¬balled every other nomination untiltheir men were elected. I wonder,” hesaid as he scratched a match on a55th lamp-post and relit his pipe,“how it works in Iron Mask.Yay, Phi Delta!Anyway the Phi Delts elected JimTedrow, DA production manager, ChetHand of the .Maroon and PublicityBoard, and Ray Oakley also of thePublicity Board and a member of DA.Ray Oakley is a Phi Delt they tell me.“The Dekes will have Clayton Trae-ger, Bob Torburn, Dave Siebert, andRobert C.

Match WithWestern StateThe Maroon team plays its firstmeet of the year against WesternState Teachers college on the MidwayFriday afternoon at 2 o’clock.Although the Kalamazoo team alsohas lost its top player, Milton Ruehl,the squad is strong, and the seasonopener may indicate weakne.ss in theChicago squad, which lost John Kriet-enstein as well as the Murphys, sing¬les ami doubles champions of the BigTen, and ranked among the country’sleading doubles teams.Charles Shostrom, whose brotherJohn was Big Ten singles championin 19.38 jirobably will play in the No.1 position for the Maroon team in theWestern State meet, although posi¬tions will not finally be allocated untilafter Coach Walter Hebert’s intra¬squad playoffs next week.Shostrom, Big Ten champion in theNo. 3 flight last year, eventually maybe displaced by either Art Jorgensen,No. 4 Big Ten champion, or CalvinSawyier, promising sophomore, whowas No. 2 in western junior competi¬tion.Jorgensen, also a member of theMaroon basketball team, w'on the No.4 title in last year’s Big Ten meet andhis steady game has improved in prac¬tice this year. Sawyier, potentiallythe most skilful member of the squad,probably requires a year of Confer¬ence competition before he fulfils hispossibilities.Jim Atkins, big Texan who won theBig Ten No. 6 title for Chicago lastyear, will not compete in the VV’esternState meet, but he is slated to playeither No. 3 or No. 4 for the Maroonteam if he can clear an ineligibilitywhich now blocks his way.Ranked behind Atkins are BenumFox, of Oak Park, and Bob Lifton,who attended Austin high school, bothcapable players, who will play No. 5and No. 6 if Atkins becomes eligible.Dick Norian, a member of the Chi¬cago “B” team last year, is the mostlikely candidate to fill the No. 6 spotin Atkins’ absence.

Mr.Shaw, a high school principal, afterseeing the English folk dancer Elize-beth Burchenal, became so interestedin this type of dance that he made astudy of the Western cowboy andMexican dances.

Author of the pop¬ular book, “I’ll Take the High Road,”which appeared last year (and was re¬printed in part in the January “Read¬er’s Digest”) he declines to picturehimself as a helmeted hero of theskies, but “bookish, bespectacled, un¬able even to hold a teacup withoutrattling it,” and often heckled, as hechariots through the skies, by a per-sisten inner voice which chides“Come, come, Langewiesche, you knowdamn well you ought to be sitting insome library. What are you doingup here?” But Langewiesche goes onflying, with refreshing results fromboth a mental and literary stand¬point. James Wellard, editor of theQuarterly, who was a student herewith him in 1934, skillfully thumbnail-sketches him for his readers.FrontispieceFrontispiece of the magazine isMaude Phelps Hutchins’ painting“Girl with Violin,” posed by Franja,the artist’s daughter. Two paintingsby Mrs. Hutchins entitled “TanagraHead” and “Nude,” and two headsculptures, of Gertrude Lawrence andof Franja, are also pictured.A book review of “Labour and De¬mocracy in the United States” byKenneth White; an article on “TheThreat of a Stable World” by LewisMumford, and one on war reconstruc¬tion by J. B. Condliffe; several pagesof pictures of the recent “Interna-tional Night” at the House, and as¬sorted chatter and news items com¬plete the spring issue. By MARIAN C.VSTLEM \NAlthough the Student Art Show inIda Noyes this week has provokedmore discussion and publicity thanany previous show, the whole tenorof the show is more conservativethan in 1939 or 1938. Fewer entrieswere hung and several traditionallandscapes, among them the firstprize winner, were in evidence.Judges UnanimousThe judges, Mrs. Robert S. Mulli-ken, Mr. Norman L. Rice of the ArtInstitute, and Mr. Robert Jay Wolfiof the Bauhaus School of Design a-greed unanimously on “The Tree” byTheodore Klitzke as deserving of the$10 prize money. Both this and Mr.Klitzke’s other work, a seaeoast,showed painstaking work, good or¬ganization, and a pleasing tone. Theseaeoast seemed better than “TheTree” for, though neither scene wasespecially original, the “lone bare treeon a broad landscape” idea has beenbadly overworked in recent years. Inaddition, the use of color in “TheTree” seemed blatant without ade¬quate excuse.Griff Williams toLead Conga NumberGriff Williams, popular maestrowho has been sponsoring the “SearchFor Talent” Contest on Friday Eve¬nings at the Stevens Hotel, has in¬novated a novel idea featuring thatpopular dance “The Conga.” Greatsport is had by all when Griff himselfleaves the bandstand and starts lead¬ing the entire crowd.A gay student floor snow, and thespecial rates that students are enti¬tled to, plus the fact that the StevensHotel is so close to campus, all havehelped to make College Night at theContinental Room extremely popular.Student courtesy cards are now avail¬able at the Maroon Office, Both second prize winners, JoshuaHolland’s “Balancing the Budget”and Martha Maurer’s “Bowl” wereequally deserving. The bowl wasbeautifully executed, with a restrain¬ed Indian motif on the glazed inside.“Balancing the Budget” is an excel¬lent water color marked hy simpleorganization and a soft light lendinga quiet atmosphere to the entire pic¬ture.Four third prizes were awarded. Sonia Weiner’s “Landscape withBarn” is naively done in clear colors.“Portrait,” by Herbert Grossberg, ismade emotionally exciting by an un¬usual use of color, especially green,but it suffers from indistinctness. Al¬bert Busch’s lithograph, “Melvin,”is also vague, probably because it isso dark, but it, too, has interestingundertones and organization. “MotherKnitting,” by David Soyler, lastyear’s winner, is a noteworthy penand ink composition done easily andwith economy.Other compositions in the show^w'hieh are worthy of note are DavidSeyler’s “Portrait” (his self-portraitin oils won first prize in last year’sshow), Holland’s “Self-Portrait” donealmost as well as his prize-winning“Balancing the Budget.” ClassifiedWANTED STUDENTS; Who have contact, iFinancial or Law office., to .eH o^‘* ^cialized printing .ervicea; you opeaaccount; we do the 'cat — generoiM ^continuona commiaaiona.
