The re¬maining fourth w’ore divided betw'eenapproval and indifference in theirattitudes toward such practices.”•Although the verdict as to doublefeatures was not decisive, studentswere definite in the type of featurepicture they enjoyed. “Comedy,”“musical,” and “drama” were theclasses esteemed highest.

William Spencer yesterday. _ _Faculty members Brown and Deanhave already left the University towork in the Office of Production Man¬agement while a third man is flirtingwith the same office.Indirect as well as direct influenceof government jobs was cited by DeanSpencer as a problem. A Universitygraduate teaching at DePaul Uni¬versity left for a defense post, andDePaul hired a man who had beenacting as an assistant in the BusinessSchool here.Not as BadThe situation is not as bad as itwas the first world war, however,Dean Spencer said. Although it hada faculty of only 10 people all of themsave the one woman on the staff weredoing government woi'k. Tl^ schoolwas using a part-time teaching pro¬gram with membei's of the Economicsdepai'tment and men fi'om the Uni¬versity business staff.Although the eni'ollment in theschool dropped 17 per cent this yearthis has no effect upon the budget.Actually, the school is making moneybecause of the special National De¬fense course being offered to govern¬ment-sponsored people, who are pre¬paring for executive positions indefense industries. The $110 tuitionfor these students is being paid bythe government.Several Projects Under WayProfessor Theodore Yntema was do¬ing government work during thesummer but is now doing some workfor a private concern, said Dean Spen¬cer. Similarly, other faculty membersare doing part-time work for eithergovernmental'or private projects.“We intend to be tioing business,however, as long as xve have any stu¬dents,” Dean Spencer assui'ed studentsand prospective students.Paul McPherson, publicity direc¬tor of Trend .Magazine, announcedtoday that subscriptions are nowbeing taken at the rate of $1.2.5 forsix issues.

WEDNESDAY. DECEMBER 3. 1941The Lewis Bogey AndThe Anti-Labor LawsThe reactionary leaders in congress are using the John L.Lewis bogey as an excuse for anti-labor legislation. The poll taxcongressmen are defending anti-strike legislation with “John L.Lewis is power hungry,” “John L. Lewis is mifair to defense,” and“John L. Lewis wants to be a dictator.”We also think John L. Lewis has put his desire for personalpower above the general welfare. But Lewis and American laborare not synonymous. It would be just as fair to pass anti-industrylegislation because not all manufacturers cooperated with the de¬fense program.Lewis HatredThe proposed laws to prevent strikes are not being judgedaccording to how they will speed up the defense program withoutdestroying the bargaining rights of unions. These laws are beingpushed through congress on a wave of Lewis hatred. Scarcely anycongressman seems aware of the far reaching results that willfollow from such legislation.Most of the so-called anti-strike laws provide for: (1) a cool¬ing off period before strikes can be called in defense industries,(2) compulsory arbitration of labor disputes, (3) Abolition ofjurisdictional or organizational strikes, and (4) a vote of theworkers in a union or a plant before a strike can be called.Cooling Off PeriodOf these four proposals the cooling off period is probably themost defensible. If both sides in a labor dispute would take about30 days to consider the cost of a strike, many strikes would besettled without loss in defense production.Compulsory arbitration of labor disputes means that the gov¬ernment will have to fix wages and decide on working conditionsin industry. If strikes are prohibited and arbitration substitutedalmost every union leader in the country will demand an increasein wages. The union leaders know that having demands arbitratedis easier than having to strike for them. They will have every¬thing to gain and nothing to lose in asking for arbitration.In making these arbitration decisions the government will facethe responsibility of trying to fix practically all wage scales andforcing men to work if they dislike the wages the government dic¬tates for them. In making these tremendous decisions, the gov¬ernment will work against the independence of both capital andlabor. Yet paradoxically enough some of the men who have mostardently opposed government interference in private industry arenow overwhelmingly behind a compulsory arbitration proposalthat will give the government power to decide wage policies forindustry. The reactionaries seem to be legislating their ownsuicide.Jurisdictional StrikesProhibiting organizational and jurisdictional strikes playsinto the hands of too many employers who would set up rival com¬pany dominated “independent unions” and then blame legitimateunions for causing jurisdictional strikes. Every strike would bpcalled a jurisdictional strike.The proposed strike vote law is probably most dangerous todefense because it gives the impression of being fair. But the pro¬ponents of such a law assume that the workers in unions neverwant to strike. Such an assumption is not true; in some instancesthe workers want strikes more than the union leaders. If theworkers in a plant voted for a strike under government supervisionthey would feel that their strike had legal significance.They would feel that the government was backing the strikebecause the members of the union voted for it in an election undergovernment supervision. If workers have such an attitude, settle¬ment of a strike becomes much more difficult. A strike election lawwould boomerang back in the face of the administration.Few Misguided LeadersAnti-strike legislation will antagonize labor into calling morestrikes than it will prevent. If government expects the cooperationof labor in the defense program it must not punish every unionfor the mistakes of a few misguided labor leaders. Congress shouldgive labor legislation the same consideration that it is giving tolaws regulating industry. The so-called labor problem can be solvedonly when our legislators have an understanding of the deepercauses of labor unrest. It is foolish to suppose that we can endstrikes and labor disputes by merely passing laws against them.Aiuioimce Best SellersBest Sellers as reported by the Uni¬versity of Chicago Bookstore.FictionSaratoga Trunk, FerberTaptola's Brave Regiment, NathanThe Sun is My Undoing, SteenThe Hills Beyond, WolfeKeys of the Kingdom, Croneri G-String Murder, LeeWild is the River, BromfieldNon-fictionThat Day Alone, Van PaessenYour Income TaxOpinions of Oliver Allston, BrooksMusic on Record, HagginTreasury of Gilbert and SullivanLanguage in Action, Hayakawa By MIMI DAYTONThe Quadrangles ..... .homosapicns and homosaps . . .bravado and sniveling cowardice...intrigue . . . politics . . . honesty...naivete . . . men.. .women.. .63rdStreet.. .beer.. .tobacco . . . smoke.. .dim yellow lights burning all nightin musty halls.. .people.. .frauds andintellectuals moldering in the stacks.. .adolescents maturing in the C Shopover a hand of bridge.. .club girlsgiggling into their'cokes.. .fraternitymen sloching over milk shakes . . .Frank Hickman Etherton and NelsFuqua.. .pepper pot jealousies.. .thesigh...the eye . . . the leer...IntHouse, temple to false principles, tofrauds and Freud.. .Ellis Coop, thegreat American way...Burton Court,the collegiate tradition.. .Kelly Hall,harpies and doves...We're Happy About...Midge Hibbard’s cheerfulness . . .Sig Grande’s mahogany voice . . .Betty Berry’s continental savoire-faire.. .Helen Weisselberg’s shy so¬phistication . . .

That schedulecomprises, for each school, home-and-home series with six Conference teamsand single games with the remainingthree Conference teams. The threeteams to be met in a single game willhe rotated annually.The Conference rule which limitsschedules to 20 games in all duringthe season has been lifted to permitcontests with service teams at Greathakes Naval Training Station andt hanute Field, Rantoul, Ill., both ofwhich will include former Conferencestars on their rosters.Pre-season reports indicate an in¬crease in team strength throughoutthe Conference, with outstandingstrength promised p^i-ticularly in thefirst division.

Norgren’s Fifty-first An¬niversary Edition of a Maroon basket¬ball team bows into a new seasonSaturday, Dec. 6, when it faces IllinoisTech, formerly Armour Tech, in theFieldhouse. The Techawks have al¬ready had their inaugural tilt, comingout with a 41-16 win over the Amer¬ican College of Physical Education.The Maroon starting line-up is stillundecided, but Jack Fons, and EdNelson are certain of starting berths.George Wagenberg, the steady, vet¬eran guard, will not be in the line-upbecause of academic difficulty.Sophs May PlayNorgren has a choice of sending inexperienced men of the Jimmy Cros-bie, George Krokowka vintage, or hecan use the Illinois Tech game to seewhat sophomores have on the floor.The Maroon quintet, however, ispointing for a good start this season,and Norgren will probably start anall veteran brigade.Of all the sophomores, Bernie Hein-en is the most promising.

WhenI the program was originated it wasI not planned that fraternities shouldI enter teams for the sake of points—; points which would help them win aj trophy with which they could makeI their house look prettier and withj which, incidentally, they might cap¬ture an additional freshman the nextyear.Win by FlipYet, the fraternities do enter teamswithout the actual thought of competi¬tion in mind. Many a time the intra¬mural manager of my house has stoodup and said; “We won the ‘X’ teammatch with Mu Beta Schmu by theflip of a coin.”I don’t know how often this hap¬pens in other houses. The conditionmay not be universal but definitelydoes exist. Evidently neither frater¬nity was worried about: “providingevery student with an opportunity toparticipate in the type of play thatwill do him the most good.”Similar is the set-up under whichfraternities attempt to manipulate theopponent into the position where hemust forfeit because the required timelimit has expired.“Highest Reward”Having just read Plato on justice,it is very tempting to draw an anal¬ogy between this situation and Glau-con’s idea that the highest rewardgoes to those who appear just but areactually unjust. The only point opento discussion is what we mean by“highest reward.”The University feels that the ex¬perience and exercise gained in com¬petition are the “highest reward”.But it is quite apparent that thetrophies mean more to our selectundergraduate student body.

The guest speaker for the eve¬ning will be Henry L. McCarthy, Re¬gional Director of the Social SecurityBoard. Mr. McCarty will speak on“Current Problems in Social Welfare.”This part of the program will befollowed by the election of the officersfor the Winter Quarter. There will beno preliminary sale of tickets and thedinner will be served cafeteria-style.All members are urged to be presentat this last meeting of the AutumnQuarter.YW Speaks OfHuman Values ference from home cooking and thewide divergency of tastes that mustbe satisfied, “If you don’t like car¬rots, you’re going to say that thecarrots are lousy.”Answers ComplaintsDiscussing the complaints aboutthe quality of the maid service, Mrs.Drake said, “Most of the girls don’trealize that we have one employeefor every five girls. The service wegive is terrific.”The reason for the amount of helprequired lies in the physical lay-out ofthe halls, she explained. Whereas themen’s halls need only one person onthe switchboard, the women musthave four a day. The men’s hallsserve as many people in one room asthe women’s halls do in four, whichcomplicates the serving problem.Referring to the item listed in theannual report published recently inthe Maroon which showed a total of41 cents per day spent on raw foodper resident, she termed it mislead¬ing. The meals of the employees werededucted from the total cost of foodand classified under the item for labor,she explained.Agrees With HarrellMrs. Drake agreed that there wasroom for objection to the physicalaspects of the dormitories. She dis¬closed, however, as did William Har¬rell, business manager of the Univer-'sity, who was interviewed on thesame subject last week, that manyrepairs and redecorating projects hadbeen made which the girls could notnotice.“I wish the girls would report theirobjections to me,” she said, “That’smy job.

Distinguishing theplay from most sttige presentationsis its unusual manner of presentation,known as the intimate theatre style,in which the players are surroundedon all four sides by the audience.The intimate theatre style was firstmade popular by Noel Coward. In theoriginal, stage sets of this type ex¬tended into the audience in the man¬ner of an Elizabethan theatre.However, “By Request” is intimatetheatre with a new angle. For in addi¬tion to the above mentioned, the audi¬ence is provided with a host who seatsthem, introduces the play, servescoffee between acts and bids them apleasant good evening afterward.The idea certainly seems to be pop¬ular on campus as can be seen fromthe group reservations. Tuesday isreserved for Hillel; Wednesday,spoken for by the Methodist StudentLeague and Westminister; ChapelUnion has Thursday.The University Players warns thatthere will be a shortage of seats onall nights except Friday.
