Pacifismhas been the chief protective machin¬ery of totalitarian propaganda. Theleaders of aggres.sor nations ‘black¬mailed peace’ to suit their own pur¬pose.”“Totalitarian leaders, whose oneidea and object was war, submittedtheir countries to economic war andmisinterpreted truth even to theirown peoples.

As Hamlet and Ophelia,respectively. Director Greenman and Betty Ann Evans head the group. Bothhave made names for themselves in DA productions. Greenman considersEvans the best actress on campus, with his Queen Gertrude, Gi’ace Farjeon,running an admirable second. ^Welsh in Serious RoleSupporting the leads, other Shakespeareians have been chosen not somuch for past performance as for ability recognized by the director. Well-known for his parts in comedy, Louis Welsh plays his first serious role asKing Claudius.Robert Miller, considered unquestionably the best character actor oncampus, takes the part of Polonius. The part of sincere and loyal Horatiobelongs to Jeff Mongerson.From off-campus, the Shakespeareians have imported Beloit star WilliamMinteer for the role of Laertes. At his Alma Mater he played the leads in“Winterset,” “Night Mu.st Fall,” and the killer in “Petrified Forest.” fallen from the pen of Daiches. Hismanner here is much the same as thatof his highly successful “The Noveland the Modern World.” But in thiscase, his subject matter forces him tohandle comparatively insecure figures,such as T. E. Hume, Cecil Day, Lewis,and Stephen Spender. Of course, thereare those who would call these menthe the giants of the day, yet timeagain has to answer for that.Yeats and Eliot, on the other hand,are well known as any of writersDaiches priviledged with attention inhis work on novels. The former soughtfor a philosophy to replace a lost tra¬dition, while the latter refused to be¬lieve the golden fleece had departedfrom the classics.The probable theme of this bookcould be stated as “Where do we gofrom here in our cultural omnibus.”The public through this book isbrought up to the immediate questionof what the wandering and unsettledmind of the poet will take as his task.With a question akin to the above,Daiches leaves off his writing.Mirror CallsFor MusicAnd Skitscomedyfor itsMirror, women’s musicalorganization, in preparation1940 Revue is calling for contributorsof songs, dance music, and skits.

Howard Shomer, Conscien¬tious Objector, Seized byU.S. Deputy Marshals.By DICK PHILBRICKResolute, determined to follow thedictates of his conscience, the Rev¬erend Howard Shomer, assistant tothe Dean of the Chapel, was arrestedyesterday by a United States deputymarshal for failure to register forconscription. His arrest followed Mr.Shomer’s filing of an affidavit as aconscientious objector with the reg¬istration board of Oak Park.First evidence of federal actionagainst the youthful minister was theappearance of U.S. marshals on thequadrangles yesterday morning. Hewas taken into custody about three inthe afternoon and taken to the UnitedStates Commissioner’s office for ar¬raignment.Gilkey SignsCommissioner Walker read thecharge to the prisoner and recordedthe pastor’s plea, not guilty. Bondwas fixed at $500, and arrangementswere made to have Dean Gilkey signpapers for the prisoners release at theDean’s home.Asked for the reasons for his re¬fusal to register, slender, ascetic, Mr.Shomer said that his action was theresult of “weeks of thought, medita¬tion, and prayer.” I object to the Con¬scription Act of 1940,” he continued,because “1 am against war”, and be¬cause I am “against automatic ex¬emption of ministers in the Congre¬gational and similar churches.”Laymen and Clergy“I am one of those Christians whotake very seriously what they under¬stand Jesus’ teachings about violence(Continued on page four) LargestI F BallTonightTonight the Inter-fraternity Ball,prime social event on the fall calen¬dar, will take place in the Grandball-room of the Hotel jherman.

By STUART SCHULBERGStark reality, in the person of JoeMolkup, entered usually carefree Man-del corridor at 12 noon yesterday andby the time it left, a few minutes later,Dick Himmel and the Daily Maroonwere faced with a slander suit.Assigned to make a survey of fifthcolumn activities on campus, Himmelhas been carrying out an extensiveexamination of spies, saboteurs andsuspicious characters in general onthe Midway. With a bread-and-butterletter to the German government,handed to him by an anonymous hero,Himmel set out to investigate PU’sJoe Molkup.Himmel Chats on EspionageInvestigating, or merely pondering,Himmel was discussing the matterwith a few loyal citizens in front ofthe Coffee Shop.

Dick Levin, Dick HimmelThe ObjectorMr. Shomer’s case will doubtless stir up someexcitement and controversy. He will be pointedout as a “draft dodger.” For the newspapershe will make a good story. Some will criticizehim. A few will make of him a martyr.We must admire Mr. Shomer for his courageand for the strength with which he attemptsto remain consistent with his convictions. Toaim jingoistic taunts such as “coward” or“slacker” at Mr. Shomer would be contemptibleand ridiculous. For he is a religious man, andhis act was brave and sincere. Possibly he wasmistaken, but certainly far from cowardly.His Ideals are RightTaken alone and distilled from all the corrup¬tion of their environment, Mr. Shomer’s prin¬ciples regarding war and violence are undoubt¬edly right. Most of us would believe in them, andno one could deny that they are the principlestaught by Christ. Most of us however are un¬christian enough to balk at Christ’s doctrineof turning the other cheek. Perhaps for thatreason then we have no right to judge the mansince we have to judge from the level of ourown viewpoint which probably isn’t so elevated |as Mr. Shomer’s. INonetheless, taking the merits of this case [alone, aside from any theological or philisophi-cal principles involved, Mr. Shomer’s position,to us, seems mistaken. According to our un¬derstanding of the conscription bill, all menwithin the specified age group were required toregister only as a preliminary step in the draftprocedure. Only after all men were thus regis¬tered and classified, could exemptions and de¬ferments possibly be made. But registrationdid not amount to being drafted.Theory of Law UnsoundFurthermore it does not seem that soundpolitical theory would countenance the policyof desregarding laws simply because we do notagree with them. Such a policy may soundproper to the revolutionary or the anarchist,but in a working democracy, laws properly mayonly be repealed, not disobeyed. In our govern¬ment, mechanisms exist for protesting lawsand requesting their repeal, such as referen¬dum, and appeals to reprentatives. But as longas laws stand approved by the majority, for the isake of order they should be regarded by all.Of course, Mr. Shomer declares that he wish¬es to go on trial for the sake of testing this lawin the light of the constitution. This is very well.If he chooses to risk himself and suffer the con¬sequences for a cause he believes in, it is hisright. However we seriously doubt his judge¬ment if he believes that the Supreme Courtwill concur in his opinion.Incon.sistent PositionMr. Shomer declares himself a licensed minis¬ter, and therefore exempt from the law any¬way. As we have pointed out, however, he wasnot thereby exempt from registering. But inthe face of this declaration, he goes on to statethat his religion cannot accept the distinctionbetween clergymen and laymen made by theact. Yet he used this distinction partly asgrounds for not registering.We know Mr. Shomer was sincere and bravein his motivations. We can only blame him foreither being misinformed, badly inconsistent,or both.W. B. H.

Theends included picking a fight with the Maroon to getpublicity for himself, in which he was singularly un¬successful, and running a .series of Sunday afternoontea-dances with phonograph records which were sentto him free of charge in return for the advertisingwhich he gave them in a review-column.The dances were evidently to ease a conscience, be¬cause instead of turning the records over to the Dormi¬tory library as he should have, he added them to hisown collection which numbered several hundred beforehe left this university for M. I. T,Council ActsThe Council decided to do something about that habitlast week. Henceforth all tea-danc(»s must go throughthe Council’s hands, and all records sent to the Courtierwill go to the library.Members of the Courts are justly proud of the cupwhich they won for the best Homecoming decorations.The decoration consisted of a “cake” which stood twoand a half stories high with its three layers. The 50candles which it held were over a yard tall each.A survey is to be taken of all the older members ofBurton-Judson to find out just what their interests are.Armed with this information, the Dorm Council willplan a program of activities more to their mature liking.Heretofore the functions have pandered more to the |tastes of the freshmen.P.

The Gopherslounted on a pass from Stein to Con¬nie Kontos and the 70-yard fourthquarter ramble. The extra point, whichproved to be the winning marpin, wasalso scored by Stein.Devils Score FirstThe first Red Devil score came aft¬er eifrht minutes of play.

They were scheduled againstBrown University at Providence, R.Lin the first of what was to have beena home and home arrangement.Now Chicago footballers play onlyin their own back-yard, and seem tohave more fun at that.Speaking of football, we’ve beenwondering why some enterprisingsports scribe with a fresh supply ofadjectives hasn’t pulled out the stop¬gaps and pounded out what we thinkis the grid melodrammer of the year.Shaughnessy—Cinderella ManWe mean the tale of Coach ClarkShaughnessy—Cinderella Man of 1940—who shook the cold ashes of Midwayfootball from his person and wentwest to win fame and a New Year’sDay lease on the sumptuous RoseBowl palace. Maybe the boys are wait¬ing for Shaughnessy’s Stanford squadto cinch things in their breather Sat¬urday, but most of them already con¬cede Stanford the west coast bid.The last years of Shaughnessy’sreign on the Midway must have beenheart-breaking for him. He was a manwhose hobby as well as career wasfootball, .\nother coach might havestressed fundamentals and defensiveplay a bit more than did Clark, andthus cut ofT^a few of tho.se 308 pointsthat opponents rolled up against theMaroons last year.Shag Played to WinBut he had to play to win. Therewas always a chance—even if a smallone—to .score a touchdown or two,Clark rea.soned. And perhaps he knewthat defensive work day after dayisn’t much fun for the boys who makeup a team.There was that strange Thursdaynight before the Ohio State gamewhen Shaughnessy strolled over totwo campus correspondents watchingpractice. The Maroons were lining upin new and tricky formations,“You won’t send anything in yourstories about these new plays?’’Shaughnessy asked.We agreed,“They would be all set for us, if you Idi<l,” he explained.That Saturday, if you remember,the .score was: Ohio State, 61; Chica¬go, 0.That’s why we’re glad to see thesquare-jawed grid coach on his wayto the Rose Bowl.

The restof the half was a see-saw battle allover the field with both teams threat¬ening consistently on .spectacular for¬ward passing and running plays.Wild Second PeriodThe last half of the contest waseven wilder, with Phi Delt threaten¬ing all the way. The deciding touch¬down came after Phi Delt had march¬ed to the Phi Gam two yard line.Adam Kosaez intercepted a Phi Deltaerial and dashed ninety-eight yardsto a touchdown, with Crisco Wilcoxtrailing by three feet all the way.Kosaez has been timed at 9.9 for thehundred in full football equipment.Outstanding players for Phi Deltwere Crisco Wilcox and Ray Oakleywho did a splendid job of pass-re¬ceiving. Lopatka, Donian, and Kosaezwere strongest for Phi Gam, but everyplayer on both teams played brilliant¬ly.

We invite such contributionsin the hope that all viewpoints mayfind expression.—Ed)If there ever was a time when theUniversity of Chicago was a force inthe defense of democracy, that time ispast. For although we spend muchtime in imposing discussions of de¬mocracy, the chasm is constantlywidening between the higher learningand the lives of the ordinary peoplewho form the bulwark of democracyand its real strength.And this is really nothing to won¬der at, since we are cursed here witha stagnant, unrelated intellectualismand an abstract, unimplemented ideal¬ism which cope with nothing.Thomists, Joyboys and PositivistsThis can be seen in the lineup ofintellectual positions here at the pres¬ent time. On the one side are the neo-Thomists who give us empty meta¬physical and theological propositionsto uphold in order to defend democ¬racy; on the other side, we see thelogical positivists who make a newtheology of logical positivism, andwho wander blindly in a forest offrames of reference. And betweenthese is the stultifying indifference ofthe club and fraternity people andtheir imitators.But, ought we, after all, look foranything better, when the keynotefor all of this is given by PresidentHutchins himself. The president isgood at talk, but that is as far as itgoes. It sounded fine to hear him sayin his 60th inaugural address that tothe fascists way of thinking, the Uni¬versity opposed freedom, truth, andjustice.Mr. Hutchins Couldn’t SayBut the president doesn’t seem toknow that freedom exists only in theparticular act of liberation, truth in_the concetely determined fact, justicein the specific judgement. If he hadrealized this, his words would havebeen rich with meaning, for he wouldhave continued by saying, “Yes, theUniversity stands for freedom andtruth and justice. Therefore, as theuniversity’s spokesman, I say, let usend segregation of negroes in thearmy, let us maintain peace, and thecivil rights of minority parties, let uspass the anti-lynch bill and abolishthe poll tax. This is how we fight fordemocracy at the University of Chi¬cago.” But Mr. Hutchins couldn’t saythese things, for such words demandreal responsibility and lay the basisfor action.Positivists Could Not ResistFascismUntil the logical positivists realizethat certain frames of reference areof greater importance than others, orthat peace and jobs and civil rightsare more significant than the formalmode of speech, they will remain in¬capable of fighting democracy’s bat¬tle. This was shown in the past whenthe Unity of Science movement couldnot stand against the advance of fas¬cism, and its proponents dispersed andexiled. That should have taught themthat democracy needs specific meansdirected toward specific ends.Until we attain the courage to per¬form the concrete deed here and now,and to bridge the gap between theidea and the reality we will remainpowerless to resist fascism, or to keepAmerica at peace, or to defend ef¬fectively American democracy.Molkup—(Continued from page one)cited the fact that Molkup’s good namehas been scratched from countless din¬ner parties and engagements, as anindication of the harm of Himmel’sclaims..Maroon Will FightDeciding to fight back, Himmel andthe Maroon chose the firm of Hawkins& Mohlman to defend them in the case.With Judge Ulysses S.

TheCourier.They stressed the point that at threetimes the library has helped the com¬munity as well as the Quadrangles.It has amassed government documentson a comprehensive scale and estab¬lished a major micro-photographiclaboratory which enables documentsand newspapers to be preserved saf¬ely with little space. It has also builta representative map collection.No large collection is found west ofthe Alleghenies. The library, there¬fore, having a group of 110,000 maps,has set a goal of 400,000. All of theimportant collections are now found inWashington, 1). C., with the ArmyWar College possessing 1,000,000 mapsand the Library of Congress, 871,000different maps. The end of the incu¬bator period has passed, stressed thepamphlet, and the library now hasneed for floor space and area forpreparation, consultation, and exploit¬ation and for a buying sum.Hoover ReliefRefugee Aid is helping in pub¬licizing Hoover’s Food relief drive.Anyone interested in aiding in thisdrive should get in touch withGeorge Denemark at 637 BurtonCourt.BOWMAN RADIORECORDS, SHEET MUSICandEXPERT RADIO REPAIRING827 Eost 79Hi St.Triangle 8070For His Christmas GiftPIPESTOBACCOPOUCHESHUMIDORSPIPE RACKSCIGARETTE CASESCampus Tobacconists1324 E. 57th St.Fairfax 1892 We Deliver Dynamic EconomyNecessary SaysPaul G.
