Vol. 4i. No. 24 / Z-149 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO, TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 5, 1940 Price Three CentsRadicalGroupsDeclineScience and Society and So¬cialist Club Only Ones Left.Radical proups on this campus havebeen declining in the past two years,aceordinp to records in the dean’s of¬fice.The only radical orpranizations thathave rejristered this quarter are theSocialist Club (Labor and SocialistInternational), and the Science andSociety Club, which is a Marxist studyjrroup. The Communist Club is notrecorded for the first time in manyyears and there is no record on theTrotskyites for the past two years.No Third InternationalNone of the Communists who repis-tered durinj' the Sprinjr Quarter wouldcommit themselves as to whether theThird Internationalists would organ¬ize this year; therfore they have dis-han<led.The Communists lost much of theirsupport when Germany signed a peacepact with the Soviet Union, since theirmain ar^rument was based on the the-si.s that the only alternative to a^*vancinpT Fascism was Communism.Undoubtedly the central reason forthe radical dt'cline is due to the pros-^ure put upon them by Americanismp'roups iH'cau.se of the increasinj? em¬phasis upon patriotism during thepresent and ever increasinp war sit¬uation.Trotskyites Charge Dictator Methodsithiel Pool, leader, of the Trotsky¬ites, states that the rea.son the Trots-kyite group is disbanding is becausethey are definitely against war. andcompulsory military conscription, andfor an organization to maintain suchprinciples at this time is not feasible."Dictatorship methods” are being usedto stifle organizations of this type,according to Pool.Both the Trotskyites and the Com¬munists advocate the violent over¬throw of the existing government andreplacing it with Socialism. This hasalway.s been meat for the American¬ism groups, and will no doubt con¬tinue to be so.Hold EvensongServices InChapel NightlyKvensong, a new Chapel service ar¬ranged especially for students will beheld for the first time this afternoonfrom .'ir.'lO to 5:45 in the chancel ofRockefeller Memorial Chapel. Theservice will be continued every after¬noon from Tuesday through Fridayfor the balance of this quarter.Evensong, which is planned to be arestful period for meditation and woi’-ship at the t'nd^of the day, will con¬sist of organ music, a hymn, and read¬ings and responses as well as a periodof meditation. Dean Gilkey of theChapel and Howard Schomer, head ofChapel Union, will each lead oneservice a week. Rabbi Pekarsky, Al¬fred Painter and Donald Baldwin,other members of the Chapel staffwill also be leaders.Readings and prayers will be chosenfrom the Christian and Jewish litur-gies by a student committee whichwill also plan the service.Registration Rises1.5% Over Last YearOn the basis of registrations at theond of the third week of the quarter,7055 students are enrolled in the uni¬versity, an increase of 1.6 per centover last year. Of these, 3423 areRraduate students, 3430 are under-Kraduates, and 802 are students-at-l^rge.Registration in the College, not in¬cluding first two years of the Four-Year-College, dropped 2.9 per cent,but the number of students in the Di¬visions showed an increase of. 4.8 percent. The Maroon's ChoiceAmericans have a chance today to exercise their right of freechoice. This is no ordinary election—by now it is a platitude toremind citizens of that.Not only is this an epoch-making election, but also it is anelection in which it is much more difficult than usual to exercisethe right of free choice intelligently. Both candidates for Presi¬dent have serious flaws, but both have glimmerings of greatness.Some decision, of course, must be made. We feel, therefore,that the Maroon may at least be able to summarize a few of thevital issues and to point to which of the candidates offers a morereasonable answer to them.Foreign PolicyThe issue that is generally giv^en precedence is that of foreignpolicy.We think that Cordell Hull’s conduct of our international rela¬tions has been masterly—we know of no secretary of state in ourhistory who has displayed as mature judgment or as sound knowl¬edge of diplomacy.Republicans of the New York Times-Daily News ilk thinkthat Willkie would continue the same foreign program. If he did,however, a majority of his party leaders would repudiate himand he would be unable to effect any sort of consistent or coherentpolicy toward the nations with which the United States must deal.W’illkie has yet to make clear his attitude towards the rela¬tions between the United States and the Latin American nations.Roosevelt, while imputing to them a democracy which we canscarcely discover even with the closest observation, has adopteda realistic attitude which will make more than anything else forthe hemispheric defense which is necessary today.Social ReformsThe second broad issue that has provided a basis for heateddi.scussion in the campaign, and the one on which it should prob¬ably be decided, is that of social reforms and economic prosperity.While vve cannot approve of the figures that Roosevelt andthe New Dealers have quoted, showing increased employment inthe last few months, we feel that the New Deal has accomplisheda substantial degree of economic recovery. Disregarding the em¬ployment gains made because of the defense program, there stillhave been between 8,000,000 and 9,000,000 new jobs found sinceRoosevelt came in. The 9,000,000 still unemployed, we are afraid,would not have found jobs under any other sort of administration.Deeper and more basic economic deficiencies have made it impos¬sible to achieve a perfect adjustment of the American economy.Destructive Criticism Onl>On the other hand, we have failed, after careful scrutiny tofind in any of Willkie’s speeches anything which indicates that hewould be able to find any permanent solution of the economic illswhich face us. His criticism of New Deal blunders has been inmany cases accurate, biting, and effective, but he has failed com¬pletely to offer anything else but a program of passivity to replaceit. He has admitted his own inadequacy by the contradiction inwhich he upholds the important New Deal reforms, while claiminga desire to })lacate business. Apparently he fails to realize that itis the reforms themselves which have been the chief cause ofbusiness hostility, whether the economic leaders admit it or not. Draft Numbers NotMixed Thoroughly SayBartky^ StoufferWalter Bartky.. .stirring things up.Burton-JudsonElects EightBoard MembersThe Burton-Judson DormitoryCouncil, student governing board, waselected last Thursday. The results ofthe election were announced at theHallowe’en Party held last Fridayevening in Burton Dining room.The eight members chosen, fromeach of the undergraduate classes andfrom the ranks of graduate students,were: Graduates, Dick Parker andMonrad Paulson; Seniors, Jay Bart¬lett, Bill Malinowski and Bud Stein-bach; Juniors, .Joel Abrahamson;Sophomores, Vem Waples; and Fresh¬men, Norman Barker. At the firstmeeting Sunday evening Bill Malin¬owski was chosen as president of theCouncil, Bud Steinbach as Treasurer,and Jay Bartlett as Secretary. Goldfish Bowl Failed to Pro¬vide Adequate Mixing Facil¬ities.By DAN WINOGRADAccording to a story in the ChicagoTribune last Saturday, the draft lot¬tery was so drawn that no man canknow today, the day of election, whenhe will be called for training. Thestory is based on the findings of Uni¬versity mathematicians that too manyhigh numbers came up in the earlydrawing.Walter Bartky, associate professorof astronomy, and Samuel Stouffer,professor of sociology, are the menwho analyzed the lottery for the Trib¬une. Bartky said that apparently thecapsules were not mixed thoroughly.He thinks proper precautions werenot taken—that a .goldfish bowl didnot provide adequate mixing facili¬ties. He did not mention the politicalimplications pointed out by the Trib¬une. Bartky has further stated thatpure chance still determined eachman’s individual number.Accidental ErrorStatistician Harold Gosnell, ques¬tioned by the Maroon, stated that ifan error occurred, it was accidental,and not deliberate. He thinks theremay have been a mechanical mistakein mixing. Gosnell said he is ac¬quainted with some of the men whowere in charge of the lottery, and isquite certain that there was no at¬tempt to “fix” the lottery on theirpart.Kenneth Sears of the Law Schoolsaid he had not made a study of thelegal aspects of the supposed flaw,but that he feels it is more a politicalthan a legal problem. Similar senti¬ments were expressed by another Uni¬versity statistician who said he wouldbe glad to examine the arguments onthe question after the election.Purnell Benson, graduate student,is reported to have first noticed tl!eexcess of high numbers contained inthe first capsules drawn.National Defensei A third question is the organization of our national defenseefforts. It seems unlikely that Willkie could proceed with muchmore rapidity than the New Deal has so far. Obviously it takestime to set the gears of so ponderous a machine as the UnitedStates in mesh. Quite as obviously, there have been flaws in defensepreparation. But, we think that in his appointment of such menas Knudsen, Nelson, Stettinius, and Henderson to head the defenseefforts, Roosevelt has acted wisely. Knudsen has quite often ex¬pressed the opinion that the defense program is proceeding withsufficient speed. As a business man, and a technician, he wouldcertainly object if it were, as is claimed, bogging down.Third Term 1The fourth vital issue of the campaign, and the Chicago Trib¬une’s favorite, is the Third Term. Actually we think this is thelast important of the major controversial points in this election.The authorities quoted so often, Washington and Jefferson, wereliving in a different sort of world, under entirely different politicalconditions.• About this issue, therefore, we are content to accept thepartisan, but nevertheless accurate statement of Paul Douglas thata third term for political power, when it is separated from econom¬ic power is less dangerous to democratic liberties than a first termfor political power, when it is combined with tremendous economicstrength.Obviously, it would be impossible in an 800 word editorial tocomplete an exhaustive survey of the issues at stake today. Itshould be unnecessary to warn individuals of University intelli¬gence to ignore petty personal statements slandering either of thecandidate’s personal character.Ask QuestionsBuFwe should like to urge all of those who are' casting theirvote at the polls today to consider again the honestly importantissues at stake. Can Willkie, even if elected, and even if perfectlysincere, succeed in maintaining the gains made under the New Dealagainst the opposition of the majority of his own party? Can heestablish a consistent foreign policy when his own party is sodivided over his most imminently important of issues? Does hehave a definite plan of action in these days when action must beclearly directed?We think the answers to all these questions are quite positive¬ly, “No!’’ We therefore urge the re-election of Franklin D. Roose¬velt, the best man for the job, and it is a job that today demandsall the skill available. E. S. L. The duties of the council includehandling of all social functions andpresenting student opinions to facultyentry heads. At the meeting Sunday,plans were laid for Homecoming dec¬orations, and for a booth at the Carni¬val. Plans for the Winter Formalwere also started.Ellis Co-op HasFire in Ice Box—Man Bites DogA thick cloud of smoke and anaroma of something burning greetedthe members of the Ellis co-op Sat¬urday night, ten minutes before a galaparty was scheduled to begin. Sincethe “fire” was not on the program forthe evening, one of the more ambi¬tious co-opers called a fire engine, toextinguish what was thought to be aconflagration in the basement. Afteran extensive search, the firemenfound no fire but a burnt out refrig¬erator motor from which the smokewas issuing. No serious damage wasdone.And through it all, with stoic calm,one of the Freshmen members of theco-op sat on the front porch trying tolight a jack-o-lantern. “Who caresabout a fire,” he said, “We want toget the house ready for the party.” ^/nf. House Presents."Grand Illusion"Starring Erich von Stroheim andJean Gabin, the French film “GrandIllusion” returns today to the Inter¬national House screen.

Ed Nelson dressed as Mr.The decision that is to be made by a major¬ity of the freshman class at the end of thisweek is of major importance. It is of such im¬portance because it will be the chief factor indetermining the friendships that are to beformed during the undergraduate career of theclass of ’44. Consequently in making this de¬cision freshmen should use the greatest possiblediscrimination. They must, for their own good,sift the advantages and disadvantages of thevarious houses with a minimum of prejudice.They should decide rationally whether anyhouse offers them enough advantages to makeit worthwhile joining a fraternity.Sources of MisinformationThere are four conspicuous sources of mis¬information regarding any given fraternity.They are the fraternity itself, other fraterni¬ties, rushees, and alumni.Deliberate misstatements about one’s ownfraternity are extremely rare at Chicago, butthere are many cases of vague remarks aboutsuch things as financial obligations that aretrue, but have false implications. Any seriousstatement made by a fraternity man about theadvantages of his organization, should be thor¬oughly understood by the freshmen beforejudgment is passed. For example, it would beunwise for a rushee, who needs to work in orderto pledge, to assume that he will have a jobwaiting on table just because an active has'mentioned that “... there are several waiters’jobs that are always taken by the brothers.”Misrepresent PictureSimilarly, fraternity men seldom tell definitelies about another house, but they are oftenguilty of misrepresenting the picture. A re¬mark like “They’re all millionaires. You wouldnever fit in over there,” should be checked onby consulting with members of the house inquestion, and deciding for oneself as to whetherhe would ‘fit in,’ In spite of the dictates oftradition, there is no such thing as a ‘fraternitytype,’ and the question of fitting in should becompletely determined by the regard a rusheehas for the men in the chapter.Likwise misinformation from other rusheesis usually not intentional. A man who has madehis decision early is eager to pass on favorableinformation about the house of his choice, andthe opposite about other fraternities, regard¬less of the accuracy of this information.Disregard Alumni Esquire avec ping pong balls under his eyes, squiredJoan Sill ....

Wilson a new twosome . . .Louis on LynchingPressure from alumni who have only casual,if any, association with the active chapter isabsurd. A freshman should never join a fra¬ternity because of its fine alumni members, un¬less he is joining for the mere purpose of get¬ting some job after graduation. The men whowill be in the chapter when the rushee is inschool are the men who should influence hischoice. On the same point national reputationand legacy ties should be of negligible impor¬tance.Unless it is absolutely necessary, a fresh¬man should not choose a fraternity on the basisof its cost. He should investigate prices care¬fully, but the slight differences between housesof the same calibre should have little influence.Friendship cannot be measured in dollars andcents, and friendship is the main objective of afraternity.Co-operateFinally, a freshman should realize that heis undertaking certain obligations when he joinsa fraternity. He should be prepared to co-oper¬ate in many varied enterprises with his futurebrothers throughout his university career. Mr. Kenneth Sears, professor in the Law School,sits in a book-lined office in the stacks and thinks. Andwhen a Maroon reporter visited him yesterday, he wasthinking that Boxer Joe Louis’ claims that Mr. Willkiecould solve the lynching problem were no more thanthe nervous words of a worried Republican.“If anyone can induce Congress to pass the Anti-Lynching Bill, the President, with his large Southex'nfollowing, is the man,” said Professor Sears in x’eplyto Louis’ statement that Willkie would be more success¬ful with the bill than FDR has been.According to the Law School professor, the situa¬tion is next to hopeless, however, since the Southernstates are determined to prevent the passing of the bill.The importance of the decision must not beforgotten. A freshman who selects on the basisof unfounded prejudice, kinship ties, nationalreputation, or promises extracted during theearly part of the year, is nothing short of fool¬ish. The choice should be determined solely bythe character of the men who will become hisbrothers.J. P. S.

NOVEMBER 5, 1940 Page ThreeTHE DAILY MAROON SPORTSAs I WasSaying-By BOB LAWSONThe Western Conference footballrace is still wide open despite North¬western’s 13 to 12 defeat at the handsof Minnesota Saturday. Michiganmeets both teams on successive week-oiuls and anything can still happen.On the basis of the Northwestern-Minnesota game, however, I’ll stillstring along with Michigan to cop thetitle and probably remain undefeated.With Forest Evashevski startingagainst Minnesota Saturday Michiganshould win. Evashev.ski was supposedto miss the Gopher game because of afhipped collar bone, but the doctorshave decided that the injury was notreceived in the Pennsylvania game butis an old one, and, therefore, he willbe able to play.Best GameThe Minnesota-Michigan gameshould be one of the best of the year.The Wolverines lack line replace¬ments, and the Golden Gophers lackbackfield replacements which justabout evens them up.The Michigan backfield of Evaskev-ski. Tommy Harmon, Norm Call, andbob Westfall is a better one than Min-ne.sota can offer of Bobbv Paffrath,Ceorge Franck, Bruce Smith, and BobSw ieger. This is casting no aspersionson the Minnesota backfield which is atine one but is merely giving the Wol¬verine backfield its just due.Both teams have great lines withMinnesota having much better re¬placements. Michigan’s pair of ends,F.d Frutig and John Nicholson, arebetter than any Minnesota can offer.A1 Wistert of Michigan will probablybe the best tackle on the field but.Minnesota has more tackles to offer.The guards are about even, and the(Joiihers have an edge at center.Fine CoachesRoth Fritz Crisler and Bernie Bier-man are fine coaches and have builttheir attacks around the materialwhich they have. Harmon is naturallythe spearhead of the Michigan of¬fense, while Bierman is building hisusual power plays around Smith andFranck.This week Harmon will find himselfin a duel, not with one man, but two.Roth Smith and Franck are greatbacks and can give any line in thecountry an unpleasant afternoon.Place a line averaging 210 pounds be¬tween the tackles in front of them,and you have sheer dynamite.Taking all these things into consid¬eration, I’ll still take Michigan as longas Kvaskevski is able to play. Takeaway this quarterback and the wholesituation has an entirely different as¬pect. Jailbirds Win 25-12Over Geology in l-MEmploying a wide-open passing andrunning game. Jailbirds staged a last-half rally to down Geology, 25-12. Inother games, Judson Court slapped a30-0 licking on Burton 800, and C.T. S. shut out Meadeville, 37-0.For the whole first half.

M. to 8 P. M.— Six-Man LeagueIn Close RaceBy Werner BaumThe six-man football race is rapidlyreaching a thrilling climax. If wemay borrow Mr. Gallup’s terminologyon the Presidential battle, “It lookslike a photo-finish.”The Red Devils and Bears havefour games remaining, the Gophersand Unexpecteds have five.The Red Devils are now leading theleague, but from their last two ap¬pearances it looks as if they havepassed their peak. The Unexpecteds,running true to their name, are dom¬inating the scene at present andlook like the team to beat. This aft¬ernoon’s game between the Red Devilsand Unexpecteds is a decisive one. Ifthe Unexpecteds win, they will takeover first place and should hang ontoit. If the Red Devils bounce back andwin this afternoon they may go on andnot lose another contest.Gophers Still InThe Gophers should not be countedout of the race. They will have oneregular game and one re-play withthe Unexpecteds, and they may upsetthe cart and come out on top.The Unexpecteds have a tough weekahead of them. They play the RedDevils today, the Gophers Thursday,and the re-play between the Unex-l)ecteds and Gophers may be held Sat¬urday. If the Unexpecteds win thesethree games, they are definitely in.The Bears, although out of the racefor first place, may also change thepicture. They played a good game lastThursday, Each of the teams mustmeet the Bears once more and if theBear pass-receivers learn how tocatch a pass, an upset may result.UnexpectedsIf the Unexpecteds come out on top,as expected, they can thank a cer¬tain Mr. Fitzgerald whose fifty yarddashes have scored most of theirtouchdowns, with or without block¬ing. If the Red Devils or Gopherswin it will be due to their powerfulpassing attacks. Stein has been throw¬ing the ball for the Gophers andBauman and Gruhn have done mostof the catching. Balia has done mostof the pitching for the Red Devils.Bostick and Harlan have done greatrunning jobs for the Gophers and Red U. of C. Ski Club OrganizesAre you interested in skiing?

Groupsthat come to power in this way, hesaid, will tend to be anti-foreign andanti-semitic.Gottschalk said that while manywriters were “too optimistic” in esti¬mating the difficulties of Hitler in¬vading America, he believed thatgreater Hangers lay in the internalrepercussions that a Nazi victorywould have in America. “It may notbe necessary for (^niany to conquerthe United States by physical force,Want Glamour?Pulse SponsorsCharm SchoolCarnegie told the world “How toWin Friends”, Adler told “How toRead”, and now Pulse is going to tellthe University women how to“Charm”, through standard charmerslike Katherine Aldrich, Judith Allen,^ and Arleen Whelan, stars of stageand screen now appearing at localtheaters.Plans announced by Rick Jacobsonof Pulse, will have these actresses atthe University tomorrow.

McQueeny yester¬day in giving instructions to 90 Uni¬versity men who are acting as pollwatchers today under the sponsorshipof a number of Chicago civic leagues,one of which is the Chicago Bar As¬sociation.j Mr. McQueeny, who is representa¬tive for these groups, pointed out thatthe precinct workers will not noticean individual if they think that he isI dumb. Thus if a person is inconspicu-j ous, he will have a better opportunityto detect vote frauds.Watch “Hinky Dink’s” WardThe men are working in precinctsthat have reputations for fraudulentvoting—Jake Arvey’s 24th Ward,“Hinky Dink” McKenna's 1st Ward,as well as the West Madison Streetarea and the Nor^ Clark street dis¬trict.Each of the men were given Roose¬velt buttons to wear while watchingthe polls, since most of the votefrauds in these districts are instigatedby the Democrats, and by wearing thepins they can establish friendly rela¬tions with the New Deal party andconsequently be in a better positionto notice fraudulent procedure, saidMr. McQueeny.The watchers were instructed notto participate in election procedure inany way, even if they see vote steal¬ing. Their job, Mr. McQueeny pointedout, was to stay in the backgroundand notice everything that occurs, andmention any frauds in a long reportwhich must be submitted to him. if the Nazis conquer England,” hesaid.If the war in Europe becomes astalemate, he said, we can expect thatthe plight of the Jews in the Germancontrolled parts of Europe will bevery difficult. The Jews instead of be¬ing exterminated more likely would bekept alive to serve as possible hos¬tages or as forced labor.Forum AnalysesDebate ProblemWith Bob Landry and MauriceStrantz as guinea pigs. Professor N.C. Leites will lead a unique experi¬ment in Student Forum’s meeting thisafternoon at 3:30 in Lexington 5.The purpose of the experiment is togive a practical demonstration of howto solve a problem through rationalanalysis. The problem will be “Aid tothe Allies?”To that end, Landry, who is for aidto Great Britain, will analyze the ar¬guments against helping the Allies.Strantz, who is against giving aid,will state the claims of the “pro”side. The idea, presumably, is that inthis way only the bare, uncoloredfacts will be given. It will then be upto Professor Leites to tear apart botharguments, eliminate the non-essen¬tials, and present what he considersthe true “facts” of ea4h side, in orderthat valid conclusions may be drawn.This meeting is open to the public andaudience participation will be invited.
