The committee hopes toavoid the difficulty of past years whichhas resulted from signing an orches¬tra too late. By beginning negotia¬tions early, the chances of securing aname band for the February date aregreatly enhanced.In keeping with Social Committeepolicy for ’41-’42, to provide biggerand better dances and orchestras forless money, the ’42 Wash Prom willbring no increase in price of bids,but will be even larger and more en¬tertaining than last year’s. One of the worst shocksfelt in recent years was re¬corded on the University seis¬mograph in Rosenwald at12:14 yesterday afternoonaccording to Hilmut Lands-berg, associate professor olmeteorology.First reported by a seismo¬graph in England where theshock almost shattered theinstrument, the probably epi¬center was a line runningnorth and south through themiddle of the AtlanticOcean, said Landsberg, andit might have seriously af¬fected Greenland and Ice¬land.

When the party reached Orleans,the city was in chaos. “It was herethat I received my first real taste ofwar,” stated the young Czech. “Wewere bombed ten times during the dayand after the bombings, mobs pillaged, , . ^and looted the shops.

Learning, severaldays after his arrival that Bayonnewas to be in Occupied France, heagain set out, this time eastward toPau in the Pyrenees, where he re¬joined his party. After resting threeweeks, the group journeyed to Mar¬seilles in hopes of finding passagethere. Kept waiting from August toOctober for his exit visa, Hercik madegood use of his time by going north tothe town of Clermont-Ferrand, wherethe University of Strasbourg had beentransplanted. Here, he took his fifthiind last examination toward his de¬gree, and returned to Marseilles withthe intention of setting sail for Brazil.As Hercik explained, “This was ouronly chance since Spain refused to is-f^ue visas, especially to Czech andPolish people.

Scott an¬nounced yesterday that there wasno moving up of the date of frater¬nity initiation despite, the earlierpledging date. Two quarters of res¬idence are still necessary before in¬itiation. mund Levarie will be performed atthe first concert of the CollegiumMusicum.Rossi was a court musician in Vi¬enna around 1600 where his workswere highly acclaimed by the publicof his day. Since then his manuscriptshave rested in obscurity until Dr.Levarie found them in an old Vienneselibrary. Levarie started editing andtranscribing them for strings. Thissets some sort of record for longtime collaboration.In the old manuscript, music wasmarked “alcuni instrumenti,” whichmeans “for any instrument.” The newversion will soon be published by Dim-it in New York. The music is to beplayed from Dr. Levarie’s own manu¬scripts December 3 at InternationalHouse. The continuance of the meteorologyprogram in cooperation with the AirCorps, the Weather Bureau, and theCivilian Aeronautics Authority wasannounced yesterday by ProfessorCarl Rossby, head of the Meteorologydepartment.The course for the next group ofstudents will begin July 1. There willbe 25 openings for Flying Cadets and22 for those sponsored by the WeatherBureau of the CAA. The present pro¬gram has enrolled the same numberof men.Although students from both classi¬fications take the same courses theFlying Cadets receive $127.50 a month.After completing the program theyare sent to Selfridge Field in Mich¬igan to receive some flight training.They are then commissioned as sec¬ond lieutenants in the Air Corps anddo meteorological work.Receive $75 a MonthThe others receive $75 a month andhave their choice of work in theArmy, the Navy, or the Weather Bu¬reau. About 75 percent go into theNavy Rossby, said, because thatbranch of the service offers no spe¬cialized training of its own. They re¬ceive commissions as second lieuten¬ants in the army or ensigns in thenavy.Applications must be filed far inadvance for this program with thegovernment demanding certain phys¬ical requirements and the Universityacademic requirements. Science ma¬jors are preferred with a knowledge ofmathematics and physics indispensa¬ble.Dean Rossby emphasized the im¬portance of an early decision regard¬ing the progi*am to allow students totake courses in the next two quarterswhich would be particularly helpfulpreparation.

Harold BachmanAppointAugeiCosmic KidTo FacultyAppointment of Dr. Pierre Auger,the outstanding French scientist in thefield of cosmic ray research and oneof the leading physicists of France, tothe post of research associate in phys¬ics at the University, was announcedrecently by President Hutchins.Although only 42, Dr. Auger has al¬ready won acclaim for two discoveries,the “Auger effect”, the multiple photo¬electric effect with x-rays, and the“giant showers” of cosmic rays. Hewill continue his investigations of cos¬mic rays in his research at the Uni¬versity. Harold Bachman, Director of theUniversity of Chicago Band will directthe annual Fall Concert of that groupin Mandel Hall next Sunday, Novem¬ber 30, at 3:30.

The type of concert given onthe quadrangles is thoroughly enjoyedby the members of the band andtherefore has always proven of inter¬est to everyone.Scheduled for Sunday is a programof varied interest because it containsworks by several composers and ofseveral types. First selection to beplayed is a choral melody, Komm Sus-ser Tod by Bach which will be fol¬lowed by the Allegro Maestro fromHandel’s Water Music Suite and ar¬ranged by Don Malin.Next the band will play the Queenof Hearts, Overture by Gagnier.

WEDNESDAY. NOVEMBER 26. 1941Bazaarist Goes HawthorneLoves Great Stone FacesThe Trotskyite TrialAnd Civil LibertiesWe hope the Department of Justice will dropits case against the Socialist Workers’ Party inMinneapolis. The Socialist Workers, betterknown as Trotskyites, are charged with plottingto overthrow the United States Government.We are not members of the Socialist Work¬ers’ Party or any other radical group; we thinkthe Trotskyites are mistaken and disagree withthem on many important issues. But we alsobelieve in freedom of expression and freedomof assembly even for people who are misguidedin their political thinking.It is true that the Trotskyites advocate avague theoretical “revolution.” Is advocatingrevolution going beyond the limits of freespeech? Should the G Men arrest every mis¬guided fanatic who wants to “overthrow thegovernment?” We think these questions werebest answered by the great Justice Holmes in’his dissenting opinion on the case of Gitlow vs.New York. Holmes maintained that people whoadvocate overthrowing the government shouldbe prosecuted only when there is a “clear andpresent danger” of their proposed revolutionbecoming successful.We agree with Justice Holmes. We think oneof the greatest dangers to the American systemof government lies in prosecuting extreme butharmless radicals. Such cases are too easilyused as precedents to justify more flagrantabuses of civil liberties.If such people are sent to jail, we are onlynext door to banning the great radical classicslike the Communist Manifesto and Lenin’s“State and the Revolution”. If we imprison peo¬ple who oppose the American form of govern¬ment we are endangering those who oppose theinstitutions closely allied to traditional Amer¬icanism. We may find ourselves prosecuting so¬cialists who are opposed to the capitalist sys¬tem which in the minds of too many people issynonymous with “Americanism.”If we accept the “clear and present danger”doctrine and decide that the Trotskyites shouldnot be prosecuted if there is no possibility oftheir revolution becoming successful, then wemust ask ourselves: “Will the Trotskyites be¬come dangerous?” “Are they really any menaceto the American system?”The American newspapers, even the NewYork Times, have not covered this case ade¬quately. We have therefore had to depend onthe Nation, the New Republic, and the Amer¬ican Civil Liberties Union for most of our in¬formation. According to these sources, theTrotskyites are in no sense “a clear and presentdanger.” They are miserably small—about 2000members, divided into an almost endless num¬ber of factions and armed with two .22 caliberrifles to “overthrow the government.”We do not think the Trotskyites are nearlyas much a danger to the American form of gov¬ernment as the notorious Smith Act underwhich they are being prosecuted. This law waspassed as a rider on defense legislation to bene¬fit a group of poll tax congressmen. Since thelaws against treason are adequate to protect usfrom armed insurrections, this law can serveno useful purpose. It can serve only as a tool inthe hands of the potential American Fascistswho would like to prohibit criticism of ouroligarchic southern election laws, and make peo¬ple believe in the capitalist system on the basisof blind faith rather than reason.J.

F’rinstance—the stone faces to be found slightlyabove the sight line on practically any of the Indianalimestone structures between 57th, 59th, Ellis, and Uni¬versity. There are particularly choice examples on Man-del Hall. On the right side of the stage door is a medie¬val-looking lady with a dribble on her chin. This samedribble has been there since the fall of 1938, and wethink that it would be nice if Buildings and Groundswiped it off for her. To the left and above the droolinglady are four or five varieties of face, all registeringdifferent stages of nausea. On the south side of Wie-boldt arch are the Culture Twins, known familiarlyto us as Stop and Go. “Go” has Greek above his headand is making a beckoning sort of gesture. “Stop” hasLatin above his head and is holding his hand in a posi¬tion closely approximating that of a traffic cop at Stateand Madison. Every morning we say hello to thetwins and every evening we say goodbye—it justdoesn’t seem right to ignore them.The Snows of Yesteryear DepartmentAsh Taylor, the blond venus of the Alpha Delt house,is currently dismembering cadavers at Northwesternmedical school.

So-called “dir¬ty” rushing reached the matter-of-fact stage during the last days ofrushing and the “extra legal code” ofmutual blindness to rushing infrac¬tions among fraternity men was againin force as in other years.I do not condemn “dirty” rushing.The fault does not lie with the fra¬ternity men. Rushing is friendly as¬sociation leading to real friendshipswhich is the basic reason for mostfreshmen joining a particular fra¬ternity. The present Rushing Codeconstitutes an unnatural limitation onthese friendly associations amongfraternity men and freshmen.I propose that the Rushing Code beabolished except for the new rulingwhich prohibits week night rushingin the men’s dorms.When I suggested this to CharlesPercy last spring he felt that it wouldresult in the wealthiest fraternitiespledging the highest calibre of menand staggering rushing expenses forall fraternities. I do not see any suchdanger. The number of freshmen whowould be influenced by expensive rush¬ing parties in addition to the ordinaryrushing functions would be negligible.Moreover the kind of freshman whow'ould be influenced by such a displayis hardly the type most fraternitieswould care to have as a member. Anyfreshman who stops to think mustrealize that if he joins a fraternitywith an expensive rushing programthat he will have to bear this financialburden himself later on.I believe that the new ruling in re¬gard to evening rushing in the men’sdorms is a step forward. The AutumnQuarter is a critical period in a fresh¬man’s life and anything that can bedone to assure a better start scho¬lastically is well worth the effort.Chester C. Hand.

Besides being affiliated withthe National Y.W.C.A. they belong tothe World’s Student Christian Federa¬tion.-Financial Report-Emphasizes Double Financial'^Squeeze^^ Facing UniversityNow financial problems facing theprivately endowed universities andcolleges of the country are emphasizedin the annual financial report of theUniversity issued Saturday by HarveyC. Daines, comptroller.The University is still strugglingwith the major readjustments necessi¬tated by the depression-born declinein return from investments. It is nowconfronted with another major“.squeeze”, a reduction in student rev¬enues through operation of the Se¬lective Service Act and other defenseniea.sures, and the rising operatingcosts for supplies and non-academicwages and salaries.“That an enhancement of dividendson stock holdings will counterbalancethe effect of this double ‘squeeze’ isdubious, due to restrictions on cor¬porate earnings through governmentprice control and high income and ex¬cess profit taxes,” Mr. Daines says.“This added pressure on a budgetwhich has been highly compressed formore than a decade suggests a mostprecarious future.”The report which covers the fiscalyear 1940-1941 ending June 30, 1941shows the gross operating income ofthe University aggregated $10, 929,256for the year, against gross expendi¬tures of $10,826,767; the $102,489 ex¬cess was restricted income. But thegross income included consumable giftsof $1,675,477, or 14.3%, of which $979,-507 consisted of special gifts receivedin prior years which were applied tosupport the 1940-41 operations.Rate of return on the average bal¬ances of endowment funds was 4.24%compared with 4.17% in 1939-40 and6.2%, in 1929-30.Mr. Daines points out that “thisreduction of 1.96% is equivalent to adecline of 32% in rate of return or $1,435,819 in annual income if appliedto the present endowment.”At the close of the fiscal year thetotal assets owned amounted to $128,-781,040, an enhancement of $1,175,422during the year. Of the total, $73,320,-043 was in endowment, an increase of$750,855, and $44,619,015 had been in¬vested in plant and equipment. Thebalance is distributed under the cat¬egories of general, loan, and annuityfunds.Market value of all investmentswas 3.9% less than the book value of$76,932,176. The diversification of in¬vestment was as follows: Bonds,27.9% preferred stocks, 9.8%; com¬mon stocks, 28.1%; real estate, mort¬gages, and real estate contracts,33.7%; sundry, .5%.During the year, gifts paid in forall purposes amounted to $3,307,498of which $1,843,334 was for endow-men, $456,652 was unrestricted, andthe balance restricted in some man¬ner. During the two years ended June30, 1941, the University receivedpledges of $8,671,307, of which $5,-504,012 was credited to the FiftiethAnniversary Fund. Contributions oftrustees during this period amountedto $1,800,405. j During the last fiscal year 11,897students were enrolled, an increase of2% over the previous year. The rev¬enue from students totaled $2,533,460,or 23% of the aggregate income fromall sources. But beginning with July1, 1941, a decline in registration hasoccurred, largely the result of thedraft and other defense activities.This decline in number of students,which has occurred in practically allAmerican colleges and universities,will seriously affect academic budgets,Mr. Daines points out.“One bright light looms in the tan¬gible evidences of loyalty and appreci¬ation manifested during the observ¬ance of the Fiftieth Anniversary, thegenerous responses of the citizens ofChicago and the alumni have beenmost gratifying. The University isgrateful indeed for this munificent andwholehearted support.“What the University now needsand will continue to need is a host ofloyal friends who will support itthrough regular annual giving. Toprovide the greatest benefit, such con¬tributions should not be restricted.“The major problem now confront¬ing the University is not expansionbut the maintenance of its activitiesat their present level of excellence.rilTEREDSMOKING GENUINE nnm for medico msPMDtED ONLY IN THIS RED G BUCK BOX >66 Baffle Filter whirl-cools smoke; traps juices, flakesand nicotine in pipes, cigarette and cigar holders.nNKST BmAR MONBY CAN BUY MackieDrinksHereRobert M.

Tom Mahoney, fleet In¬dian halfback, made the decisive playin the closing minutes of the gamewhen he eluded the entire Devil teamand ran 65 yards down the watery fieldfor the winning touchdown. HenryMelin converted by catching a passfrom Bob Riley in the end zone.Making the first touchdown midwaythrough the first half, Mahoney of theIndians went over on a line buck. Hethen made the conversion on an endrun. The first Devil score was madeon a long pass from Duke Harlan toGeorge Balia who ran 10 yards intothe end zone for the score. The Devilswent into the lead when Harlan dropkicked for the conversion.Melin Receives in the End ZoneComing back immediately to de¬molish the Devils’ lead. Hank Melincaught a pass from Bob Riley in theend zone. Harlan made use of hisunique ability to evade would-be tack-lers by running 40 yards down thefield for the marker. Melin, behind abeautiful running interference, ran 30yards to a touchdown, to again put histeam in front of the Satan aggrega¬tion. Mahoney aided the cause by con¬verting on a line buck.Fighting desperately, the Red Dev¬ils moved up the field slowly, finallybringing the ball up to the Indians’two yard stripe. Gene Johnson scoredthe touchdown on a plunge throughcenter to tie the ball game.Frantically fighting against the rac¬ing scourge of time, the Indians re¬ceived the ball on the kickoff from-the Red Devils on their own 15 yardline. With the sidelines hushed on thenext play, Tom Mahoney broke loosefor his deciding run down the fieldthat brought the second annual cham¬pionship to the Indian team.Devils Handicapped by MudThe Red Devils, who were onlybeaten once in the tournament series,were visibly handicapped by the mud¬dy condition of the field. Added tothis, they were also at a disadvantagefrom the standpoint of weight. BobCummins, Satan 210 pound back-fieldman, who had been their main¬stay during the tournament series,has been unable to play for the pastfew weeks because of a broken thumb.Ever since his absence from the line¬up, the team has not shown the ag¬gressiveness that was characteristic ofit.Ray Randall Jack Fansmeet the athleteSWIMMERSCoach McGillvray has called ameeting of the members of theswimmi||flR|pam for this afternoon.All varsity members are asked tobe in coach’s office, Bartlett Pool,at 4:30.Indoor TrackMen Preparestarts practicing Latest promise of a successfultrack season is the recent appoint¬ment of Joe Novak as assistant totrack coach Ned Merriam.

Meet TheAthleteJack FonsQuiet and conscientious are two ad¬jectives rarely applied to an athletebut Jack Fons can be called both. Tall,dark, mild-mannered Fons is actingcaptain of the basketball team andmainstay of the baseball team. No onewould think of calling him a “natural”athlete but his three year record forthe Maroon and his sojourn in highschool stand in mute testimony to hisachievements.In Hirsch High School his SouthSide scoring record paced the basket¬ball team to the semi-finals of the cityleague while he led the baseball ninein batting and played a consistent, ifnot sparkling, outfield. He found ithard to choose between Wisconsin andChicago after graduating but finallypicked the Midway as the best placeto get a general education and pursuehis favorite study, chemistry.Letters as a SophomoreIn his sophomore year, Fons madehis old English C in basketball andplayed third base for the last five en¬counters of the baseball team. Lastyear Fons grew to the height of 6feet 2 which increased his effective¬ness on the basketball court to the ex¬tent of finishing second only to JoeStampf’s record-breaking total score.But more valuable to the teaip thanhis individual scoring was the all-around aggressiveness and steady playthat marked him as one of the fewbright rays in an otherwise gloomyseason.Enthusiastic About TeamFons is more than enthusia.sticabout the prospects for this yearsfive. The return of forwards Ed Nel¬son and himself promise an improvedscoring punch along with the sopho¬mores who acquitted themselves wellin their role as scrubs. When askedabout prospects for the coming base¬ball team, Fons could not be reachedfor comment.Bruce Smith Stamp! PlaysOn All-StarsJoe Stampf, captain of last year’sMaroon five is scheduled to make hislast appearance as a collegiate in thegame between the College All-Starsand the Oshkosh National BasketballLeague champions Friday evening.The contest will take place in the Chi¬cago Stadium before a crowd of 22,-000.Playng center for the Maroons,Stampf, a member of Sigma Chi, wonthe Big Ten scoring title last season.In the game Joe will be playing withGene Englund of Wisconsin, his clos¬est competitor in the scoring race.Stampf was originally scheduledfor a starting position but blisterswhich have developed on his feet inthe last few days may keep him onthe sidelines at the opening whisttle.Featured with the All-Star gamewill be a tussle between the ChicagoBruins and the famous New YorkRenaissance. Tickets are selling from$.55 up.Cagers EmployNew System Joe Stampf. . All-Conference Star Asserting, “We may, just may, leadthe second division this year,” tall,intensive Jack Fons threw a ray ofhope into the basketball outlook forthe impending season when interview¬ed just aftter he withdrew from aheated scrimmage with the freshmenyesterday. Acting Captain Jack Fonsstated that the cagers are employinga new system which calls for offens¬ive tactics on the defensive and whichhe expects to make possible the inter¬ception of more than a modicum ofthe opponent’s passes.In the heated scrimmage yesterdayboth the freshmen and the varsitydisplayed gameness and fight, but al¬so more than a little ragged play,neither team sinking more than avery small portion of their attemptedshots at the basket.The freshmen during the early min¬utes of the scrimmage threw up aneffective defense under the hoop, butlater the varsity began pouring themin with not too much effort. As onesideline commentator said, “thefirst freshman five is a potent con¬gregation, but the squad is lacking incapable reserves.” First year men Ell-man and Nagy are both smooth ballhandlers and should prove bother¬some to the varsity boys in practicesessions.All-StarsBernie Bierman, coach of Min¬nesota’s Golden Gophers, againchampions of the Western Confer¬ence, has announced his choice ofthe 1941 All-Conference team:L.E.
