Vol. 41. No. 64 Z-149 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO. WEDNESDAY. FEBRUARY 5. 1941 Price Three CentsSchumanSchismA BULL SESSIONBy Bernard SchachtmanProfessor Schuman’s return tocampus for a lecture has indeedproved enlightening to those whoknew him from the contents of hisbook, “International Politics.” Sincethe writing of that book, the goodProfessor has himself experienced a“schism of the soul,” a psychologicalstate which he so readily attributesto those who disagree with him.He tells us that there is nothingwe can do or say about our gettinginto the war; “there is nothing youcan do.” Compare his statement of1937: “This destiny is not indeed ‘in¬evitable,’ for it will be a consequenceof human action, and action can bemodified and redirected.” Not oneword does he say about strengtheningour own democracy. Instead he ac¬knowledges his disbelief in the validityof the struggle of the poor againstthe rich. He advocates a dictatorshipfor this country to compete with’ theAxis powers. Has he forgottenFrance?Schuman ConfusedSchuman’s every word betrays theutter confusion and hopeless incom¬patibilities that reign in his mind.In one breath, he tells us that theTory leadership of England, symbol¬ized by Winston Churchill, knows thatthere will be “socialism” at the endof this war, but it will be ;he socialismadministered by the rich; it will be“socialism” for them, by them, andof them. In short, it will be the kindof “socialism” that has healed thebreach between the rich and poor inGermany, Italy, and Japan; the kindof “socialism” that Hitler, with tnehelp of Chamberlain, Lord Halifax,the Cliveden Set, and Samuel Hoare,among others, has succeeded in ram¬ming down the throats of the peoplesof Europe.In another breath, however, thelearned Professor tells us that theonly way for America to guaranteethat she will be part of a socialistworld, at the end of this war, a worldthat will respect freedom, and humandignity, is by throwing in our lotwith those same men who would liketo see “Halifaxian socialism” reign¬ing at the end of this war. WouldSchuman honestly have us believe thatthe only way to get the “good” social¬ism is by joining with a group ofmen who have built their own destruc¬tion, who hold in subjection millionsof peoples in their vast colonial em¬pires, who appease Spain, Japan, andthe lesser known Hitlers? Does thefate of true democracy rest in thehands of such people? If the speakermeans to say that, then his own wordsare the most severe indictment of thedisastrous policy which he advocates.Peak of InconsistenciesThe peak of the Professor’s incon¬sistencies is reached' when he de¬mands a new attitude on the part ofdemocracies, a new program to offerto the conquered peoples, and a rem¬edying of the evils of the British Em¬pire as a pre-requisite to any possiblevictory. Where is this new attitude?The British government has refusedto define its war aims. The People’sConvention has been ridiculed by theTory government. Do the people ofIndia, Jamaica, the British WestIndies think that the fight of the pres¬ent English government is for de¬mocracy? Did China’s millions thinkthat when the Burma road was closed?Would the sharecroppers, the Okies,the Negroes, the unemployed thinkthat they wre fighting for democracyif we entered the war? The answeris unequivocally no! Not until aPeople’s government is instituted inBritain, will the war beoome a warof the English people, a war for de¬mocracy.Schuman Indicts HimselfThis is not the policy that Schumanadvocated in 1936. It is the policywhich has resulted from the “schism”in his soul. In the earlier position layhis wisdom; in this new position lieshis folly. I reiterate, his own words arethe most severe indictment of his po¬sition. EvaluateReadingPeriodDeans Russell, BrumbaughDirect Questionnaire Survey.Is the reading period really worth¬while? Do the students use the extratime to good advantage? Should itbe longer or shorter? These questionswill be answered by students in a fewweeks when the results of a survey inquestionnaire form are released.The survey, under the direction ofDeans John Dale Russell and AaronBrumbaugh, will for the first timesince its inception at the University,attempt to evaluate the reading pe¬riod. E. P. Bertin, graduate student insocial science is handling the detailsand distributing the questionnaires.Credit RedfieldRobert Redfield, Dean of the Divi¬sion of Social Sciences, has beencredited with introducing the readingperiod to the campus. Similar to theplan in vogue at Oxford, it differs inlength and number of the periods andin spacing in regard to the lecture pe¬riod.Among the more important aspectsof the eleven-part questionnaire, arequestions to determine the advantagesand disadvantages, most desirablelength, and an analysis of how stu¬dents spend their time during the pe¬riod. One of the last and most im¬portant questions is that which askswhether the period Justifies itself andshould therefore be continued or not.Mr. Bertin hopes to get an adequatesample of graduate and undergraduateopinion and has therefore distributedthe questionnaire to slightly morethan 60 per cent of the students. Students-HutchinsDine in Men’sResidence HallContrary to an announcement madeon the tickets, the Maroon Hutchinsdinner will be given in Burton CourtDining Room. The dinner is about theonly opportunity the great majority ofstudents have to get acquainted withthe President. He will stick to thetradition of answering questions askedby students rather than giving a setspeech.In past dinners Hutchins has beenasked pointed questions about hisviews on education, politics, Thomism,and a wide variety of other subjects.Tickets to the dinner will be pricedat 75c, or 40c in meal tickets or dormtransfers and 30c in cash. The ticketsare selling rapidly and since seatingcapacity is limited, everyone is urgedto get his ticket early. Tickets maybe purchased from Maroon staff mem¬bers or at the Information Office.lnter>CtubAll clubs who have not receivedtheir Interclub bids, please bringthe money for them to Miss Kid-well’s office in Ida Noyes between3:30 and 4:30 today.

Hunger^ Gustafson^Palmer Head PaperIra Glick. . . lost in shuffleItaly As A Nation Is In GravePeril; May Collapse—Halperin“The shock of the war can scarcelyfail to be disastrous to Italy, no mat¬ter what is the outcome,” predicted S.Halperin in an address to the Historysociety Tuesday evening.“If the Italian masses get the ideathat Germany is not going to win andwin soon, the Italian peasants willsuffer a serious collapse of morale,”he stated. “Italian defeats and the ef¬fects of those defeats on Italian mor¬ale have been greatly overemphasizedin unreliable newspaper accounts, but there will, nevertheless, be a collapseof Italian spirit if the British remainundefeated by next fall.”Independent ItalyItaly, so vulnerable economically,should have stayed aloof from thewar, Halperin feels. As a non-belliger¬ent she would have been better ableto bargain with Hitler, who will needher resources to carry out his plansfor world domination, and in additioncould have gained generous colonialgrants from both France and Eng¬land, he believes. Drastic Shakeup Follows Rul¬ing of Dean's Office; Pulse-men Out.By RICHARD PHILBRICKThe Daily Chicagoan is dead; longlive the Daily Chicagoan! Thus, onemight sum up the situation in whichthe short-lived campus newspapernow finds itself. For, the Daily Chi¬cagoan which made its first appear¬ance three weeks ago is now a com¬pletely dormant organization to bescrapped as soon as its books areclosed.But a new Daily Chicagoan isscheduled to make its first appearanceon the quadrangles Friday. Unlike theformer Chicagoan, the new paper willbe completely dissociated from PulseMagazine in its organizational struc¬ture. The new-born news organ may,however, use the Pulse office tempo¬rarily.Rex BexAccording to his own admission,John Bex, former Maroon Businessmanager is “the power behind thethrone” in the new publication, butbecause of Deans’ office restrictions,he holds no official position in its or¬ganization. As Ned Munger, editor ofthe embryo Chicagoan expressed Bex’spart in the enterprise, he is its “god¬father.”Dean Randall approved a budgetand constitution for the new paperyesterday, Munger disclosed. The Chi¬cagoan’s staff will include, in additionto Munger, Fred Gustafson as Busi¬ness Manager, Robert McKinsey asCirculation Manager, and Stuart Pal¬mer as News Editor. Leonard Shanewill serve as Sports Editor. The paperwill, according to present plans, ap¬pear weekly.International PeaceReigns At CarnivalStudents of thirty nationalities willpresent the seventh annual Interna¬tional Night Carnival at InternationalHouse on February 14 and 15. Morethan 2,600 guests are expected to at¬tend the affair.Friday evening, February 14, aScandinavian Smorgasbord dinner willbe served from 6:30 to 8 P.M. Satur¬day at the same hours a Czechoslo¬vakian dinner will be included. Theprograms and exhibits will open at7:30 P.M. on both nights.Originally a small stage presenta¬tion depicting the nationalities resi¬dent in the House, the affair hasgrown into a two-day celebration inwhich all the dining halls and loungesof the International House are dec¬orated for the occasion.Manhattan LatinsLatin American Countries will berepresented by a Pirate Inn whoseprogram will include music and danc¬ing typical of lands and people “Southof the Border” and below the equator.Visitors will be able to sip Tiarkishcoffee in “The Bosphorus”, a littleshop built as a replica of those foundDorm Men SponsorTea Dance SundayBurton-Judson will continue itsSunday Tea Dance tradition with arecord dance in .'he Judson loungeSunday afternoon. Strictly a date af¬fair, the weekly tea dance attractsmany of the campus glamour women,as well as the entire staff of Men’sStudent Service Staff. The danceshave a large attendance, and are oneof the most popular of the dormitory’ssocial functions. Dancing is from3:30 till six, with music furnished bythe record collections of residents. in the Near East, while Hawaiian girlswill act as hostesses in another room,decorated as the beach at Waikiki andcomplete with palm trees and guitars.Art pieces from the Orient will beavailable in the Chinese Bazaar, runby Chinese students.CordialFrench and British students arecombining to produce a music-hallvariety show titled “The Cordiale En¬tente”.A colorful parade of nations willbring the two-day festival to a closeon Saturday evening, February 16.The Carnival is sponsored by theStudent Council of InternationalHouse. Proceeds will support the Stu¬dent Council Scholarship Fund. Mar¬ian Hayes, social chairman of thecouncil, and Patrick Mclntee, generalmanager, will be in charge of theCarnival.Profs DiscussLaski's BookHarold Laski’s recent book, “WhereDo We Go From Here?”, will be dis¬cussed by Gerhard Meyer, Universityeconomics instructor and member ofthe Social Democratic federation inGermany until 1933; Oskar Lange, as¬sociate professor of Economics, andformer leader of the Polish Socialistparty; and Maynard Krueger, as¬sociate professor of economics, andrecent candidate for vice-president ofthe United States on the Socialistparty ticket, tomorrow night at 7:30in Social Science 105.Mr. Laski’s book considers the po¬sition of the labor party in GreatBritain during the present crisis. Aft¬er the discussion, members of theaudience will ask questions. Italy’s inability to stand the ex¬pense of the armament race, her in¬sufficient fuel supply, and Mussolini’serror in not using his fleet againstthe British at the outset of the warhave all contributed to the poor mil¬itary showing, but Mussolini’s failureto bring about a metamorphosis inItalian character Is at the very bot¬tom of the matter. After 18 years’ ef¬fort to effect this change, the Italianis still too intelligent, individual,’andskeptical to make a good soldier, Hal¬perin declared.Death for Italy“If Germany .wins, Italy’s nation¬ality will be completely destroyed andremain destroyed for generations tocome,” he predicted. “She will be re¬duced to one of the bread baskets forGermany’s industrial machine.”An allied victory, even if followedby economic assistance or establish¬ment of international free trade,would make Italy a second-rate power(Continued on page four)RehearsalsFor ^^CircW^Proceed ApaceAlthough plagued by the illness ofseveral members of the cast, re¬hearsals of DA Workshop’s latestventure, “The Circle” are progressingsatisfactorily.Grace Farjeon, a former studentof the drama on the Quadangles andnow a senior in Humanities, is di¬recting the play.

Although it is certainthat he took up the subject, it is not so clear justwhere he finally left it.In so far as he appraised the University’sattitude toward football and the scope of itsnew program, the writer met every require¬ment of objective reporting. The Maroons, hesaid, will play half a dozen games with nearbycolleges. All students including freshmen andgraduates will be eligible. There will be nospring practice; practice in the fall will belimited to a few hours a week, and admissionto the games will be free. All this was absolutelycorrect. Also he accurately summed up Mr.Hutchins’ attitude in the sentence, “Footballshould never be allowed to obscure the realpurpose of higher education.”But every good reporter occassionally pinesfor release from the 'daily hum-drum of re¬cording facts—pines for a chance to express afew^ original ideas. And so with this particularreporter, who after doing a fine job of reporting,unfortunately chose to reason.If Mr. Hutchins is right about football, hebegan, need it be the only student activity tobe put in its place? “There are a lot of otherswhich consume just as much time and return nomore in intellectual and moral values.” Amongthese other activities, he mentions comic operas,college annuals and college dailies. Like foot¬ball they have originated out of the desire ofyoung people to do something they like to doand for which they have some talent. But whatmore do they contribute to higher education.“College dailies go on, year after year, forreasons which no man knows and nobodytroubles to ask.”True, there are a lot of student activitieswhich consume time and return little or nothingin intellectual and moral values. But we reservethe possibility that some do contribute in vary¬ing degrees to the purposes of higher education.Certainly it is not hard to see a difference, inpoint of intellectual value, between partici¬pating in a football team and in such an organi¬zation as Student Forum. And regarding theusefulness of student newspapers, perhaps ifthe reporter could tell why his own daily goeson, year after year, for reasons which no manknows, he would have the answer.But the primary point, which he has over¬looked completely, is the fact that football, here,has now, simply been placed on an equal planewith all other student activities. Other activi¬ties are not emphasized by the University, andthe de-emphasis of football is only consistentwith this policy. How should other activities,which already are de-emphasized, be “put intheir place”?The reporter closed his reasoning by bril¬liantly noting a paradox: Supposedly radicalyouth, although “determined to destroy thesocial institutions which hold civilization to¬gether,” has a “slavish devotion to their ownnot too admirable or useful student institu¬tions.”Could a few of our institutions possibly beadmirable? If so, perhaps only they actuallyhold our slavish devotion.W. B. H. The Traveling BazaarBy DICK HIMMELPins and Needles....

It will be along while before she snaps out of it. But the man willbe waiting. He still would rather chase than be chased.His sense of responsibility got the best of him.

College heart affairsare sometimes much too serious and much to dangerous.Maybe the rest cure for the breakdown will straightenout the girl. It is a long hard battle for her to win. Amidway melodrama.Young Man In A HurryBy DONALD CRONSORAs the University’s music program swings into highgear. Dr. Siegmund Levarie, one of the guiding brainsof the music department, comes into his deserved statusin the University’s news. Dr. Levarie, always good copybecause of his good looks, now proves his musicalmettle by his importance in two musical performancesto be presented this week. With the performance of the19th century German operetta “The Armorer” comingup Sunday and an important concert by the CollegiumMusicuum on Wednesday, Dr. Levarie is as busy as acellist playing the Brahms Opus Number 111.Dr. Levarie is a native of Vienna, a city famous forits musical genuises. His education was received at theGymnasium in his native city and at NorthwesternUniversity. Following his extensive schooling in music,he busied himself by editing the sonatas of SalomoneRossi, a very early Italian composer, whose works areof great interest to musicologists, and by conducting inVienna.He is now recognized as an authority on pre-Bachmusic.Because of his Viennese background, Dr. Levarie isvery well suited to his responsibilities as musical di¬rector for Lortzing’s Operetta, “The Armorer,” to beproduced in Mandel Hall Feb. 9 and 10. This gay3-act composition, which is an excellent example ofthe sort of light opera popular in Germany for the lastcentury, is right up his alley.However, in spite of his ability in producing thisopera, which would rival the best of Gilbert and Sulli¬van for pure charm and grace of melody, Dr. Levarieis also very capable in performing the music of the pre-Bach era, which is the caviar of musical gourmets.This he conclusively proves in the frequent concerts ofthe Collegium Musicuum, an organization which is oneof Levarie’s brain children. The music played by theCollegium is almost entirely of the Bach and pre-Bachvariety. For example, the next Collegium concert, onWednesday, contains, in addition to works by Bach andMozart, works by such great and unknown composersas Schuetz, and Gabrieli.To jump from Bach Wednesday to light opera onFriday is no mean trick; however, Siegmund Levarieis just the man who can do it.

At birth theyoung opossum, which is about thesize of a match head, crawls into apouch provided by the mother. It staysin this pouch from 60 to 90 days at¬tached to mammary glands. For thisreason, Moore has found it possible togive hormone substances to the youngopossum by applying the hormones tothe outer skin with a brush.Operate MotherWith other animals in the samestage of development, it would be im¬possible to apply these hormones tothe young without performing an op¬eration on the mother. Through thisuse of the opossum in experiments,Moore has made a number of discov¬eries relative to the effects of hor¬mones on sexual differentiation.Thjirty-five men and women, theyoungest member of the group morethan three-score-and-ten years old, lastla!=t week celebrated an unusualgolden anniversary.Among the most enthusiastic alum¬ni as well as Hie oldest celebratingthe University’s fiftieth anniversarythis year, the thirty-five are the liv¬ing representatives of approximately:U2, who exactly fifty years ago todaywere rescued by the University ofChicago from a plight somewhatsimilar to that of the “man withouta country." On February 1, 1891, theyceased to be “alumni without a uni¬versity."The 312 were graduates of the OldUniversity of Chicago, which, besetby financial troubles, closed its doorsin June, 1886, after twenty-eightyears of educational service. For thenext five years these graduates werealumni of an extinct institution, dwel¬lers in an educational no-man’s-land.Then, February 1, 1891, the trus-tee.s of the University of Chicago, inthe process of being founded by John1>. Rockefeller and the citizens ofChicago, passed a resolution takingthe Old University’s alumni into thefold. The resolution read as follows:“Resolved, that in view of the re¬lation of the new University of Chi¬cago to the institution that formerlybore that name, we hereby confirmand reenact the degrees of B. A. andR. S. conferred by the former Uni¬versity of Chicago and we invite thegraduates to consider themselvesalumni of this University and to co¬operate with us in building it intogreatness.” Nippon StudentsFavor Suki-Yaki PartiesBy JIM MACLEARFew of the organizations on thequadrangles are more intriguing andyet less known than the Japanese stu¬dent Association. Organized 15 yearsago by the then leading Japanese per¬sonalities, the group has continued asan informal, social “get-together" forstudents of Japanese ancestry.The club’s favorite type of meetingis its Suki-yaki Party. At this affair,the main dish is prepared right atthe dining table after the manner of“crepe suzettes." This function is per¬formed with the aid of a gas burner,chopsticks, beef, onions, celery, rice,and soy bean sauce. After the meal,the students dance or occasionallysing Japanees folk songs and playnative games.Membership is limited to studentsof Japanese ancestry and about 75 percent of the members are Americanbom. As Frank Majamoto, Presidentexplained, “Almost without exception,the students come from Los Angelesand Hawaii. The remaining 25 percent from Japan are drawn here bythe theological schools and by famousdepartments, such as the Physics De¬partment.”Sponsored by Dr. Kato, hematol¬ogist at Billings Hospital, the clubonce had a larger membership. Due tothe decrease in enrollment of Japanesestudents since 1930, however, the or¬ganization now contains only 15 mem¬bers.illlllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllillllllllllllllllllililillllllllllllllllHBuy yourMAROONSUBSCRIPTIONand Vote in theMardi Gras Contest$1.75 Letters tothe EditorBoard of Control,The Daily Maroon;A column by Perez de Sola Zagorinappeared in your January 30th issue,arguing against House Bill 1776 andAid to England on such grounds asthat the negro is discriminated againstin the U. S. Army. I will not discussmost of the statements in the column;but one I feel must be refuted. Perezde Sola Zagorin seeks to saddle Presi¬dent Roosevelt with responsibility forthe embargo against Loyalist Spain,and, hence, with the triumph of Fas¬cism there. This is false.I myself worked for Spain, servingas chairman of the Louisville Com¬mittee to Aid Spanish Democracy in1936 and 1937. I know—if Perez deSola Zagorin does not—who i» thiscountry betrayed Spanish democracy.It was the reactionary church groups,the “Business-as-usual" elements, themuddled liberals, the pacifists, thekindly souls who couldn’t think a warin Spain could be our business, and ahandful of pee-wee radicals who pre¬ferred to see Fascism triumph than tohave it defeated by anyone but them¬selves. The same type of people nowoppose House Bill 1776 and aid toEngland. They will betray Englishpeople as they betrayed the Spanish.The Communists, who were with usin 1936, are now with them. Theyhave switched sides because Stalin hasstruck a dirty and cynical deal of ap¬peasement with Nazidom. But theyare not in the majority in America,and fortunately American youth isneither so stupid nor so cowardly asPerez de Sola Zagorin believes.Laurence Lee Howellllllllllllllillll Board of Control,The Daily Maroon:If there is anything I find more ob¬noxious than a practical joker, it isan addle-pated letter writer whomakes life uncomfortable for the peo¬ple who handle letters to the editor.Yet, rather unknowingly, I blunderedbadly yesterday, in handing you a let¬ter of criticism on your editorial standover the late Hutchins speech. I wishto apologize for a most inopportunetrick. That letter was written to passaway some sick hours while inforce-ably in bed.It in no way embodied my person¬al opinions, but was really a mimicryof a typical letter to the editor fromsome crank reader or vacous thinkingstudent. I was, in a crude way, pull¬ing your leg. I never suspected thatyou w’ould take the letter seriously.I know I deserve the scathing treat¬ment you handed out in the editorial,which, by the way, I thought stunk.I am disheartened to see you con¬sider that travesty of logic as myserious views on the internationalsubject. Forgive my bad humour. Iassure you I shall trespass no moreon the toes of the letters to the edi¬tor department. Just for the records,I wish to say that I am in Hutchins’camp on this subject. The constructiveword I can add is that a good manyof us should be grateful that thereare thinkers like Hutchins who arearound to do our thinking for us.Regretfully yours.Bob Reynolds(We, too, thought the editorial wasstinkg, so very stinky. We are gladto know that our contributor didn'tbelieve what he said. All is forgiven.E. S. L.)Chapel UnionBegins DriveTo Raise $385Although money may be the root ofall evil. Chapel Union still finds it anecessary item. Under the leadershipof Bill Brilliant, the Chapel UnionFinance Committee has begun a driveto raise $385 with which to carry onthe CU program for the coming year.Pledge cards are being distributed to600 students who have shown an in¬terest in the organization.Chapel Union directs its activties toward understanding world problems and is also interested in campusproblems. It sponsors small discussiongroups and larger Sunday night meet¬ings before which many prominentmen have spoken.Washington PromMort Pierce, Bob Bean, Bill Oos-tenburg, and any dormitory sopho¬mores interested in working asticket salesmen, should report tothe Trophy Room of Bortlett Gymat 3:16 this afternoon. Sophomorepublicity men should report at thesame time. Statistics Show That BaptistUniversity Really PresbyterianIn spite of the fact that the Uni¬versity of Chicago was founded as aBaptist university, statistics from theDean’s office of the Divinity Schoolrevealed that Baptist students are infifth place in a representation of dif¬ferent denominatoins in the school.Students of Baptist affiliation num¬bered 15 in the Autumn quarter’s en¬rollment of 157, while the best rep¬resented group was the Disciples with30, followed, in sequence, by the Pres¬byterian’s 27, the Methodist’s 26, and17 Congregationalists.19 DenominationsAltogether there are 19 denomina¬tions represented in the DivinitySchool. Of the more interesting ofthese, the United Church of Canada’sfive delegates is perhaps the most im¬portant. Others of special interest in¬clude there Mennonites, two of theBrethren faith, one Universalist, oneof the Church of Nazarene, and onestudent of Jewish belief.Enrolled in the Divinity courses arealso ten Unitarians, five Lutherans,three of the Reformed Church, two of Interdenominational connections, oneEpiscopalian, two Evangelical churchmembers, and one of the CommunityChurch. There are also six studentswhose church preference is unknown.The wide variation in church repre¬sentation speaks well for the Univer¬sity’s Divinity School, since it pro¬claims to be a school of sufficient scopeand universality to interest not onlystudents of its own denomination butstudents of many other sects as well.TYPEWRITERS AH MakesSOLDTRADEDREPAIREDRENTEDPortable or LargeCash or TermsWOODWORTH'SBOOK STORE1311 E. 57th St. Open EveningsNear Kimbark Ave. Dorchester 4800EDWARD MEYERS& COMPANY1448 East 55th StreetNear Blackstone Ave.February, the little month thatbrings you big savings in—GLAMOURS FORMALS andDINNER DRESSESFrom $895'XmySmTalk about a swell tiwt...just sink jout teeth ratesmooth DOUBLEMINT 6«MI nKewing satisiaction,Yes, lot real che 9 deliciousjust sink ® Velvety-smooth,Chewingoi reireshing ^ ^“-sirrisr«-I,,,, several packages today • • .Buy seve everyday.enjoy dehcionsDOuwj"Page Four THE DAILY MAROON. WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 5. 1941THE DAILY MAROON SPORTSAs I WasSaying-By BOB LAWSONDespite the outcome of the schedulesof any of the athletic teams this yea ,the future looks much brighter insports at Chicago than it has in sometime.Almost every squad numbers amongits members outstanding sophomoresin varying numbers. Basketball, ten¬nis, track, swimming, and water polo,are all blessed in this respect.Randall and BaugherThe two brightest lights in the classof 1943 are Ray Randall and BillBaugher. Randall runs the mile andhalf-mile, and Baugher is a sprint staron the swimming team.Against Purdue Saturday Randallcaptured both of his events. His milewas particularly impressive as he rana 4:28.8, fast time for a sophomore inany school and very fast for a sophomore at Chicago.Millrose Mile 4:14This time compares favorably withthat of Leslie MacMitchell’s that wonthe Millrose games Saturday over suchstars as Chuck Fenske, Walter Mehl,and Luigi Beccali. MacMitchell’s timewas around 4:14, and all these menare established starts in the mile andhave been running quite a bit longerthan Randall. It is not at all impos¬sible that Randall may become a top-notch miler although his small statureis a handicap.Baugher was high scorer in theswimming meet against MinnesotaSaturday with nine points on a first,second, and third place. Earlier in theseason he defeated Harold Henning inthe 100-yard free style race. Henningis recognized as one of the best sprintmen in this section of the country.Other TrackmenIn addition to Randall Coach NedMerriam has several good second-yearmen. Bob Kincheloe, who won the polevault, finished third in the 70-yard lowhurdles, and led off on the mile-relayteam against Purdue should be a con¬sistent point-getter for the next threeyears. Dick Blakeslee and Doc Kan-ause in the 440, Jim Cox in the two-mile, A1 Conroy in the high jump.Bud Long in the dashes, and TrudyDahlberg in the mile, are all verypromising.In basketball Fred Shaver leads agroup which includes long-shot ace,Ed Nelson, scrappy George Krakowka,little George Wilkerson, and lankyFrank Siska. If Shaver could softenhis passes up a little and learn tohang onto his teammates’ passes bet¬ter, he would take his place among thebest in the Conference in time.Mullen in FencingJay Mullen, Bob Hull, Carl Drag-sted, Taylor Morris, and Bob Kraybillhave all fenced in competition so far,and Mullen, in particular, shows signsof being a really good epee man.Wally Kemetick and Bill Self areboth in good positions to take theirplaces among the star tennis playersthat Wally Hebert has coached.In water polo there are Jim Mathe-son, Harry Fisher, and Jack Ragle tofurther the tradition of outstandingChicago poloists.Beyer Conducts GymClass in BartlettFitness for living in a democracy—that’s the main goal toward whichErwin Beyer, gymnastics instructor,is leading the workout class that meetsin Bartlett Gym daily from Mondaythrough Friday at 12:10.The group works on vaulting tech¬nique, elementary tumbling, generalgymnastics, some rhythm calisthenics,and a general calisthenic drill thatreaches every major muscle in thebody. The group works in cooperationwith the Ski Club, and has incorpor¬ated several skiing moves into the ex-There are about 26 men in the class,many coming out only for two or threedays a week. The schedule is flexibleso that a person that cannot comeevery day because of his academic pro¬gram, may come every other day andstill not miss out on the activities. Joe Stampf Regains Scoring EyeDespite 58-36 Defeat By IowaLast night’s 58-36 defeat by Iowa isnot news, for defeat is never news tothe long suffering Maroon followers.Chicago’s basketball faithful havebeen, by now, thoroughly inured to themisery that makes its home in theFieldhouse.The sole cheerful note in the peren¬nial Norgren torch song was the re¬establishment of Captain Joe Stampfto his accustomed role as the face-saver for the home quint. Off form inhis last three starts, lank, bespectacledJoseph counted 14 points against theHawkey es.Vic Siegal,‘the short, tricky Iowabucket-monger, topped Stampf’s per¬formance by 6 points, as he paced hiscohorts to victory by accounting for 20of the Hawks 58 tallies. The crowdof 9,800 saw a comparatively closefirst half, with Chicago keeping with¬in hailing distance on sane, wellplaced shots. Half-time’s whistle blewwith the score reading 27-15.The total jumped to 33-27 early inthe second period. Jack Fons, the wellbuilt Maroon junior forward, workeda six point flurry into the Iowa bas¬ket to put a definitely doubtful tingeto the game. But Iowa imperturbablypulled away from the Chicago effortimmediately afterward to put the con¬test in the records as the fourth bigC conference loss.The Iowa win puts Rollie Williams’men in a threatening position in themuddled Big Ten war. Williams hasfound a team on his hands that hasproved that its pre-season record wasno accident. The Hawkeyes are ex¬periencing an unforeseen renaissanceof basketball, and have comfortablysituated themselves in third place forthe time being. Delta UA WinsDelta BannerThe Delta U A team won the DeltaLeague championship last night whenthey nosed out the Phi Sig As 17-16in the last moment of play. Curlscored the winning basket.Although Randa of the Delta U Asscored the first two baskets of thegame. Phi Sig A tied the score at 7-7at the half. In the second half, thePhi Sig boys went ahead 13-9. DeltaU A tied the score, was put behind byPierce’s shot, and tied the score again.Curl’s bucket in the last JO secondswon for them.The Phi Psi B squad failed to scorein the second half, but beat the PhiSig B team anyway, 11-10. The PhiSig Bs scored 3 points in the first half,and 7 in the second.Halperin-(Continued from page one)unable to stand the expense of theinevitable armament race. If there isrestriction of trade as there was in1919, Italy will follow Germany’scourse, but on a scale “that even themost Wellsian type of imagination canscarcely foresee.” Murray of the Burton 600 crewscored 20 points to tie for the eve¬ning’s highest scoring position withBoyd of the Deke Bs, while his teamdefeated the Meteorologists, 39-12.The Deke Bs ran over the Pi LamBs 66-3 in the most one-sided game ofthe night.
