He has issue<ino reply to these, and the committeehopes to obtain some statement fromhim a.s a result of the third..■\lthough the committee has notht^en officially organized us yet, severalpeople have already expressed theirdesire to work with the committee,which is to bo entirely independentof all other campus organizations2\mong these people are the names ofAllen Graves, Ann Hartzler, Kine- reth Dushkin, Nancy Lesser, WebbFiser, Jim Burtle, Dink MacLellan,Ray Wittcoff, Stuart Schuiberg, DickHimmel, Elizabeth Jane Waters, Rich¬ard Philbrick, Bill Bell and RobertStierer.First of the petitions presented toDouglas came from residents of Win-netka and the north side, and the sec¬ond was brought forward by eightywomen from various parts of the cityand state. Although there have beenmany ami varied reasons given bythe signers of the petitions for theirchoice of Douglas jUs a Senatorialcandidate, chief among these is theknowledge of Douglas’ excellent rec¬ord as alderman of the fifth ward andthe fact that he is an unusual combi¬nation of honesty and efficiency, witha broad and democratic viewpoint.An Open Letter ToAlderman Douglas‘T|Mr. Douglas:Last week you said that C. Wayland Brooks is unsuited forthe United States Senate, that he is not representing the people ofIllinois, and that his policies are against the best interests of thenation. The question then arises: who will challenge Brooks’ placein the Senate? We believe you are by far the most able of the men¬tioned possible candidates in the next general election.A senator should have a clear understanding of the issuesfacing his country; an integrity that is not easily shaken by pre¬judice or personal ambition; an ability to convince others that hisviews are right; and a loyalty to the nation that goes beyond partyloyalties. “It is the privilege of every Univer¬sity of Chicago student to undergo afree examination at Student Health ifhe so wishes,” declared Dr. DudleyReed yesterday, answering the , Ma¬roon’s suggestion that students checkon their physical conditions in orderto gain a better understanding of theirdraft status.At the same time. Dr. Reed men¬tioned that Student Health had al¬ready done “some examining” of menwho were curious to see how theystood in relation to the standards ap¬plied by the army physicians. In con¬nection with this, Reed explained thatthe Student Health doctors did notknow the army’s exact physical re¬quirements, but they were neverthe¬less able to give prospective drafteesan idea at least as to their generalconditions.In addition to the general examina¬tions given, Dn Reed added that manystudents in particular, had requestedeye checkups, since visual defects wereresponsible for more rejections thanany other single ailment.Finally, the Student Health Direc¬tor warned that a wave of studentsdesiring these examinations would ser¬iously tax the department’s staff, buthe extended an invitation to any stu¬dent who was sincerely interested inavailing himself of their facilities.Banter ProsAnd Cons OfFraternitiesDiscussing “Should Freshmen Re¬main Independent?,” the University ofChicago’s Student Forum will presenttheir initial roundtable of the year onnear and touchy questions, today, at3:30, in Lexington Five. John Mc¬Bride, a Beta, and Peggy Zimmer, anEsoteric, will handle the club and fra¬ternity opinion, with Don Dewey andVelma Whitgrove speaking for the In¬dependent viewpoint.As soon as the open discussion hasended, the f’orum will turn to theirown organizational matters when theyassign civic and intercollegiate speak- ,ing engagements to qualified S.F. |members. i Thornton WilderThorton Wilder*s "Our Town" willbe shown at Intematiorval House to¬day at 4:30 and 8:30. A faculty mem¬ber, Mr. Wilder won the Pulitzer Prizefor the play from which the movieis adapted.The movie stars Wiliam Holden,Martha Scott, tvith Frank Cravendoing the narrating. The March ofTime, "New England's 8,000,000Yankees", will be presented on thesame program.Opera HourBased on the actual escapades ofa nineteenth century prince, Verdi’s“Masked Ball” will be the first ofthe current operas to be reviewedby Cecil Smith at the Music De¬partment’s Opera Hours.Verdi who was sympathetic to therevolutionary Risorgimento in It¬aly, naturally wrote many storieswhich were enticement to uprisingsand was doing all right until thisone hit too close to hdme. He there¬fore promptly changed its localeto Boston, Massachusetts, thus au¬thoring one of the most apallingsituations in operatic plot, a typicalItalian intrigue set in conventionalNew England.Opera Hours will continue overfive consecutive Wednesdays, start¬ing tomorrow in the Reynolds Clublounge at 4:30. Planning an All-Campus Day thatwill supplant the annual HomecomingWeek-end, the Student Social Commit¬tee, Skull and Crescent and Iron Maskhonor societies, the Dramatic Associa¬tion are combining their talents forFriday, November 14.Beginning at noon with the annualireshman-sophomore tug-of-war strug¬gle and the ensuing Botany PondDunk, the gala day highlights VictoryVanities in the afternoon.Band in ProgramIntroducing a new feature in theannual Vanities skits.

The dance committeehas arranged a unique floor show forthe occasion and will feature twobands. Hank Senny and his orchestrahave been signed, another local bandis being contacted. Senny’s aggrega¬tion has been playing at the SouthShore Country Club and at variousloop night-spots. The tv*-o bands willshare the spotlights in both the gym¬nasium and Cloister Club, interchang¬ing during the evening.Board To Choose ^^Best-Dressed^^;Winner Gets Gown For I-F BallYou have a combination of these qualities. We know your in¬dubitable reputation as a scholar. You will be able to assemble andinterpret information, to distinguish the important from the un¬important, and to separate bias and propaganda from factual ma¬terial. The problems of the present crises may seem difficult enough,but the problems of reconstruction after this war will require allthe scholarship that w'e can muster into public life. We need lead¬ers who can make the senate less a group of politicians and more agroup of men who try to analyze and understand issues.Broadest Meaning of HonestyWe know that you have been honest in the broadest meaningof honesty. Your record as alderman shows that you are not afraidto stand alone as a one man minority. When your opponents wereunscrupulous, you used only fair and decent methods. Instead ofbeing evasive you have said “no” to people when they asked forthings you could not give them. We have liked the way you havealways been ready to admit your mistakes; how you held townmeetings in an effort not only to accept but to urge criticism fromyour constituents.You are not only right thinking and straight thinking; you areable to persuade others that you are right. In the classroom and inpublic speeches you have been able to demonstrate clearly proposi¬tions that most other men could translate only into vague ideas.You have an unusual ability to illustrate complicated problems inlanguage everyone can understand. You can sell your ideas.Loyalty to the Nation iWe think you can keep your loyalty to the nation above any Isuperficial party loyalties. We know that you are now independentand we are sure that if you run on the Democratic ticket that youwill have not only the support of Democrats but also of thousands(Continued on page two) j Clayton Traeger, Dink MacLellan,Igor Lynch, Art Bethke, and DickHimmel, Chicago’s Earl Carrolls, haveformed a board to choose “the bestdressed girl on campus” for CarsonPirie, Scott & Company.Their final choice will have an eve¬ning gown designed especially for herby the downtown store with the ideain mind of her wearing it to the I-FBall and Autumn Formal.Jean Roff Although there’s been no word asto who has the inside track at themoment, the Maroon has spotted RuthMortenson, Jean Roff, Sally Adams,Shirlee Smith, Chloe Roth, Sybil Fer-riter, and Mike Rathje and considersthem the likeliest candidates.Since the contest will close Friday,the board will have to come to a quickdecision.

At present you are inagreement with the administra¬tion but we think that during asix year term in the senate youwill be a satellite of no one. Weknow you will always be trulyindependent insofar as you willreach decisions on the basis ofjudgement rather than mereparty loyalty.But Mr. Douglas, the primary■"^^ctions are not far away. Ifyou are to get the Democraticnomination, the people mustknow you better than they knowyou now. If you announce your¬self as a candidate in the Demo-•cratic primaries, the people willbe much more interested in youthan otherwise. We know that itwill not be an easy election; youmay have demagogy, machinepolitics, and perhaps the World’sNoisiest Newspaper against you.But the chances of winning theelection are good enough so thatit is a battle worth fighting.Poverty StrickenIThis is a time when the na-ttion has great leadership in theexecutive branch of the govern¬ment but is poverty stricken forleaders in Congress. If we areever to have leaders who pridethemselves for honesty and un¬derstanding of issues, ratherthan for abilities in political ma¬nipulation, men like you must bewilling to stand for election evenwhen the odds appear againstthem. We ask you, Mr. Douglas,to offer your leadership to thepeople.Holmes SermonJohn Haynes Holmes whose sermon,“The Unknown Soldier,” caused morecomment then any other sermon givenin the Chapel has repeated his firsttriumph. His address last Sunday onthe subject, “Ai’e We In The Hands ofFate,” has aroused the interest of theentire University and its community.Thus far, reprints of Dr, Holmes’sermon are not available; for thisleading preacher left the city shortlyafter his address and left no copyhere. The University is making all ef¬forts to hasten contact with Dr.Holmes in order to gain his permis¬sion to distribute copies of this stir¬ring sermon.

That will be enough.” The Folk-culture of Yiicatan was good enoughso that I read it straight through,once lightly. If you’re not an anthro¬pologist, you may not be interestedin the theory, but the description willhold you. And then since it’s Red-field’s idea to set up no clear schismin this book between theory and ob¬servation, the theory will come in.little words, short sentences, and infactual context, and thus be quite pain¬less.Wide AppealConsidering its probable value asa text in social anthropology, the bookhas an exceptionally wide range of ap¬peal. Economists will be interested inthe “making milpah” argicultural sys¬tem, in the chapter on Money, Landand AVork; Divinity students in thesection on relipon; and so on—Youdon’t have to be any. kind of special¬ist to read and like the chapters Med¬icine and Magic, and Holy Day toHoliday. Short of anecdotes, the lat¬ter is as good as anything Heiserwrote about the Phillipino feasta andfestivals. About all the Folk Cultureneeds is an addendum on Mathemat¬ics in the Yucatan and it would coverthe university. No, I take that back. There is onestrong exception. This is not a workon Mayan history, nor is any attempt“made to analyse the culture . , , intothe details of its historical compon¬ents.”The w'ork is based on studies offour communities in the Yucatan pe¬ninsula of Mexico. The communitiesare a city, a town, a peasant village,and a familial village. ProfessorI Redfield is interested in indicatingthe corelation of the environment ofthe community to the culture pertain¬ing in it, as w’ell as to the changes inthat culture. Special questions treat¬ed in connection with this problemare the interaction between the twohereditary cultures; the Spanish andthe Mayan ?*and the relative organiza¬tion or dis-organization of the famil.v.No Single CauseThe principle tentative generaliza¬tions which Redfield is willing to makeare that “in the absence of moneyeconomy, isolated, homogenous soci¬eties tend to have well organize<l cul¬tures and to be sacred and collectivis-tic.” Apparently there is no singlenecessary cause for secularization andindividualization, but increase in con¬tacts, and development of importantcommerce and a money economy, maybe sufficient causes.we snooped in enough corners tofind out that Hal Harwood was therewith Mary Lou Rowland . . .

That, while our in¬dustrial autocracy is being diminished,many of us will suffer in the processof social change—is, unfortunately,unavoidable. That this limitation ofproperty rights, this government so¬cialization, will be called “communis¬tic”—is inevitable and relatively true.But that this era of framework of ourAmerican laws and according to the“true”, the “essential” meaning of de¬mocracy.

Hutchins, will agree, I am sure,to this statement.The only danger that remains,therefore, is the foreign victory ofnazi forces; such a victory would giveas much of a sanction to the opera¬tion of our own insidious fascisticparty at home as a democratic victorywould give us freedom to continue theintelligent revision of those defects inour system that man the natural vir¬tues of the country to which we havepledged “our lives, our fortunes, andour sacred honour.”Yours,David Louis PosnerKenyon College ’43The Daily Maroon business staffwill meet today at 3:30 in theMaroon office.

Phi Beta Deltahas kept itself on a par with its sis¬ter clubs in every detail but this. Itis one of the smallest clubs on cam¬pus, having ten members who try tokeep themselves active in as manycampus organizations as possible.Phi Beta Delta was begun in 1898 bysix girls who wanted to become mem¬bers of an organization which wouldpromote fellowship and friendship.Upon failing to find a group thatseemed satisfactory to them, thesegirls founded their own club and puta clause in the constitution limitingthe number of members allowed.This year, plans for the season havebeen made to include short talks byfaculty members. In addition to thisinnovation, there will be the annualtea dances, formals, and other socialget-togethers. Campus activities whichinterest the club members most arethe orchestra, the choir, the Univer¬sity Players, and the Daily Maroon.An active alumnae chapter gives an¬nual luncheons, teas, and dinners inthe name of Phi Beta Delta. This clubhas a right to be very proud of itsalumnae, for one of this group isworking at Johns Hopkins while an¬other is President of Chicago Teach¬er’s College.Phi Beta Delta has dues of $7.50 a Sets for Anna Christie, which ap¬pears in the Reynolds Club Theatreon November 11 and 12, will be thefirst radical experiment in settingsthat the D.A. has tried since “UncleVanya.”'The settings, instead of beingsquarely towards the audience, as isusual, will be at an angle, using themovie technique of oblique camerashots. For example, in the third andfourth acts, which take place incabin of a ship, the audience ordinar¬ily faces straight towards the door ofthe cabin and the portholes. In theD.A. production of Anna Christie, thecorner of the cabin is directly in frontof the audience, and the door andportholes are to one side.Production and design managerDick Himmel designed these obliquesets, and Marilyn Robb executed thedesigns and painted them. Bob Sti-erer and Frank Cliffe are in chargeof the mechanical side of production.The previous experiment in modernsetings, in Tchekhov’s “Uncle Van¬ya”, was what is technically known as“dynamic” setting, where the sets areflush, but are painted angularly togive the effect of motion. In the pro¬duction of “Anna Christie”, the aimis not so much an impression of mo¬tion as of realism, hence the differenttype of sets.Ruth Ahlquist will play the titlerole of Anna Christie in next week’sproduction, and will be supported byEdde Armstrong, Bob Miller, BettyAnn Evans, Bill Dodds, Stuart Schul-berg.

NOVEMBER 4. 1941ADOPT NORTHWESTERNBy DEMAREST POLACHEK(Eds. note: The writer, who raised the issue under discussion in lastThursday’s issue of Pulse, is sports editor of that publication.)Fellow sports editor Werner Baum, who Is a fraternity man, and whodoes not write a record column, climbed on the band-wagon on Friday last. Hecommented on the yarn headed Nostalgia in the latest Pulse thusly: “It doesn’tsound so bad but seems impractical to say the least. Northwestern doesn’tplay football for humanitarian reasons. As all other large schools, it claimsto play football for the benefit of the athletes with the income of the games asa factor also to be considered.”Passing over the fact that Werner (he calls me Demy) saw fit to quoteone paragraph from a six-hundred word story, I herewith present evidence tosupport the suggestion which was offered. The capacity of Dyche Stadium,where NU home games are played is 47,000. Attendance figures for homegames this season are as follows: Wisconsin: 40,000; Kansas State: 45,000 (in¬cluding 15,000 school children deadheads); 47,000 for Michigan; and advanceestimates of 47,000 for Notre Dame and 35,000 each for Illinois and Indiana.That means the entire Maroon undei’graduate body would have been able toattend all but two of the games on the home schedule, granting the absurdfact that all of them would have had the time, money and inclination to travelout to Evanston.^ Could Increase Seating CapacityAnd the capacity figure mentioned is capacity in Dyche stadium as it nowis. The figure could be changed to 60,000 without a very large expenditure ofcash, if the potential audiences at games were that large. Would Northwesternenlarge the seating plant if they could sell that many more tickets? Wake meup in the night watches and ask me.As to Northwestern reaction, I quote from an editorial in the Daily North¬western of Friday: “We welcome any new adherents to our cheering section.”Boy! Put another egg in Mr. Baum’s beer.Touching lightly on the alternate suggestion promulgated by the Associ¬ated Press of adopting the Chicago Bears, I would state that I agree withWerner that the idea is impractical, but for different reasons. The pros maketheir salary from the gate. Asking for cutrates from the play-for-pay boyssmacks of scabbing on a legitimate concern. Those who want to see the per¬fection that is pro football should pay the price.On the other hand Northwestern University is an eleemosynary institu¬tion, as is Chicago. It is run for the benefit of students. If an equitable ar¬rangement benefiting both the students and administration of Northwesternand the students of Chicago can be made, without damaging either the aca¬demic principles or the duly established regulations of the University of Chi¬cago, why should not such an arrangement be made ? It would leave all partiesahead, than which no bargain could be better.FOURSOMEJACKET • WAISTCOAT • TROUSERS • SLACKS$ 3750COMPLETESMART • PRACTICAL • ECONOMICALStyled by Finchley in the brisk and gracefulmanner essential to garments destined for cor^rect but vigorous week-end and country usageor rugged campus wear.

The University of Illinoisplaced second with 37 points.Maloney and Hunter of Notre Dametied for first place followed by threeIllinois runners. These teams are rat¬ed by Coach Ned Merriam as the fi¬nest he has seen for some time. Sur¬prising too, according to the coach, isthe fact that a large percentage ofboth teams were sophomores.Not Full TeamHampered by illness in W’inkleman’sfamily and Harwood’s injured foot,the University of Chicago did not havea full team of five men at the meet,and hence was not eligible for a teamrating. John Leggitt, Bud Tozer, Har¬ry Roberts, and Bud Moran competedwith Leggitt and Tozer coming inabout the middle of the field.The next Cross Country Meet on theschedule for Merriam’s Harriers is theDaily Times Invitational Meet to berun November 11 at Waveland Parkunder the auspices of the A.A.U.

O — ingSPORTSWith WERNER BAUMSports EditorLet’s Forget ItIn an adjoining column is an articleby Demarest Polachek who last weekraised the issue of adopting North¬western as our “football alma mater.”After today there will be no furtherdiscussion of the matter on the Ma¬roon’s sport page unless student in¬terest warrants it.It is our opinion that the ideashould be junked for several ratherobvious reasons. Already the Univer¬sity has received unfavorable pub¬licity due to the matter. Ideas of thisnature are too often misinterpreted.Friday’s issue of the Daily North¬western says: “The Chicago students,it seems, are a little tired of watch¬ing their six-man teams push eachother about and they are clamoringfor ‘football as it should be playedand as Northwestern plays it.’ ” Northwestern were to reduce the priceof tickets for University studentsthere would not be many who wouldtake advantage of the offer.Many OpportunitiesMany students forget that, if theyare interested, there are many inter¬collegiate and other contests on theMidway which are well worth watch-ing. Attendance at most Chicago ath¬letic events is at a minimum. For thelayman it is much easier to watch asix-man game than an eleven-mangame. The only feature not present inthe six-man game is the psychologicalelement brought about by ma.«:s ac¬tion; the cheering of the crowd, theplaying of the band and the antics ofthe glamour girls who strut up anddown the field between halves. If thi.sis what students are looking for. letthem transfer to Northwestern, or anyother school for that matter, wherethey can be whole-hearted abviut thething and don’t have to do it in a half¬way fashion.Football vs. EducationAs a University official, to whom Italked about the matter, said: “Youknow, maybe it isn’t such a bad idea.We can go up to Evanston and getsome of their football. And then, may¬be, to make it even, they can comedown here and get some of our educa¬tion,”Chicago students are not tired ofwatching the six-man game. And Chi¬cago students are not clamoring forfootball. Pulse’s sports editor, by nomeans, represents the campus. All in¬dications are that student opinion is,in general, neutral to football. Thisis one of the reasons for droppingthe suggestion.
