Vol. 4I.No. 39 Z-149 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO. WEDNESDAY. DECEMBER 10. 1941 Price Three CentsQuintetIn SecondGame Here HutchinsHoldingComment Organize Student DefenseCouncil; Ask For MenWith Military Training1 Loyola University, fresh from its(55-19 rout over Arkansas Monday,invades the Fieldhouse tonight forthe Maroon’s second non-conferencetussle.The Ramblers also scored a victoryin their opening game with FranklinCollege last week. Thus one of theteams must fall from the ranks of theunbeaten tonight.Dark visaged Leonard Sachs andLoyola’s captain, Mickey Rottner satin the press row at the FieldhouseSaturday watching the Maroons buryIllinois Tech 43-29. Sachs and Rott¬ner, coach and captain of the power¬ful l^yola team, were not on the.Midway to imbibe of the Chicago cul¬ture. They were sitting in the pressrow to see what they could see ofthe abilities of Fons, Nelson, Kra-kowka, Heinen, and company.Starting LineupThe Maroon and Old Gold’s startinglineup will feature John Dwan andJohn Stanton at the forwards,Michael Dougherty at center, andRottner and Robert Tietz at theguard positions. All of these men haveearned major letters in the past.Dwan is a mid-year student, com¬pleting his sophomore year in Janu¬ary 1942; Rottner is a mid-year stu¬dent completing his junior year comeJanuary; Stanton is a transfer stu¬dent from Villanova dollege, Philadel¬phia. having completed his year ofresidency at Loyola University inJanuary, 1941,Scored 25 PointaIn Loyola’s past two games the red-haired, short Rottner paced the team,scoring a mere 25 points in the.Arkansas game. He is balanced bythe gargantuan Mike Dougherty atcenter and Jack Dwan, the hook shotartist who acted as a one man teamat Senn High School, in Chicago, dur¬ing hi.s prep days.Against this formidable, and as yetunstopable, trio of scorers, Nels Nor-gren will send his array of veterans,with the possibility that a sophomoremay start. The veterans are, ofcourse. Nelson, Fons, Crosbie, Siska,(Continued on page three) It was learned yesterday thatPresident Hutchins has decidednot to issue a special statementon either his personal reactionor University policy concerningthe war. Instead, he will touchupon the latter point and per¬haps express his personal opin¬ions in his Convocation address,December 19.Aliens ReceiveRuling OnStatus CalmlyThe University, its faculty and itsstudent body, yesterday calmly receiv¬ed the news that German and Italiannationals will be subject to intern¬ment under the same rulings gov¬erning the Japanese.Although a Maroon reporter triedto gather a sampling of campus opin¬ion, it was difficult to determinewhether this calm was due to a blaseattitude brought on by the number ofstunning stories lately, or simply anescapist tendency.Many professors and students ofGerman or Italian citizenship aremembers of the University and thereis no doubt that when the internmentplan is put into effect, it will havefar-reaching consequences on theQuadrangles.During the Maroon investigation,however, it became apparent thatmany of the professors, especially, willnot be subject to the alien regulations,since in many cases they have takenout their first papers. It was learnedat the same time that the Universitywill probably release a statement onthe subject sometime during the week.Trend Features Daiches,Saroyan In OriginalsWith original works from DavidDaiches and William Carlos Williamsto .supplement the fantasy of William.Saroyan, the Trend Editors endedtheir quest for big-name material.Daiches, author of a forthcoming un¬titled book, will christen the Decem¬ber 12 release with the story of aphysician in the Scottish Highlandscalled “Dr. Rabbitt.” Williams, whowas awarded the $2,000 Dial Publish¬ing Prize for distinguished service inliterature for 1931 and holds a Guar¬antors Prize for Poetry, will enter anessay, “The Invisible University.’’First of a SeriesThe article by Carlos Williams willbe the first of a series of similar ar¬ticles examining the habits of a uni¬versity. His essay will deal with theliterary habits of a modern univer¬sity. This symposium will extendthrough the next two issues of Trendwith the forthcoming author’s nameswithheld although Editor Jack Barneshinted that they would be equally asinfluential in the world of education.The proofs back, the presses lockedand ready, the long awaited ques¬tion of the format and cover was madeknown yesterday. In size the maga¬zine will be about the same as Timewith a plain cover listing the moreimportant contributions.Two Full Page IllustrationsThere will be two full page illus¬trations in the body of the magazine.The one for Poe’s “The Tell TaleHeart’’ is as weird as the famousmurder story. Sprinkled throughout the contents will be many lesser draw¬ings and caricatures to give the mag¬azine a more humorous and liveliertouch.With a weather eye to bargain-minded students, Paul McPherson an¬nounced the special Christmas Giftsubscription rate of six issues for$1.26. If bought individually, theyear’s issues would amount to $1.50.Subscriptions will be liandled at anyof the dormitories, the Ellis Co-op,the International House, or the Trendoffice in Mitchell Tower.Haydon SpeaksAt Int. HouseEustace Haydon, head of the de¬partment of comparative religion, in¬troduces Maurice Samuel, translatorof The Nazarene, tonight at 8 in In¬ternational House auditorium. Apopular lecturer in Humanities, Hay¬don inaugurates Hillel’s lecture seriesby presenting a distinguished Hebrew-English translator.Samuel reviews The Great Hatredthis evening and is expected to seeka contemporary analysis of anti-Semitism. In addition to work of hisown, he has assisted Sholem Asch inthe latter’s translations.Admission is free to Hillel mem¬bers, 40 cents including tax, and 55cents to others. Shirley Latham Himmel Heads Four Men,Five Women On Board“To expedite the corralling of stu¬dents for civilian defense work onthe campus,’’ a Student Defense Coun¬cil has been organized at the Univer¬sity.With the announcement of theCouncil’s formulation, came word thatan executive committee, consisting offive men and five women, has alsobeen set up. Members of the councilnumber, Dick Himmel, Chairman;Shirley Borman, Secretary; ClaytonTraeger, Kenneth MacLellan, BobStierer, Jay Fox, Ann Schroeder,Shirley Latham, Jane Moran, andDA Wrestles W. ShakespeareTo Dubious Decision: MuellerThe Interclub ChristmasTea will be held in IdaNoyes this afternoon from 3to 5. This affair, in the truespirit of the season, will di¬rectly benefit the Settlement,for club girls who wish to at¬tend must present a wrappedgift for some Settlementchild before they may enterthe festivities of the day.Each gift must have an at¬tached card stating the ageof the child for whom it issuitable, exactly what thepackage contains, andwhether the gift is for a boyor a girl.Interclub Council hasplanned holiday refresh¬ments, and entertainmentwill include caroling to beled by Ardis Molliter.Elizabeth Jane Waters ischairman in charge of theafternoon, and her commit¬tee has two members. MargeDunne and Lu Hoover. By BEATA MUELLERLast night, like Jacob striving withthe angel, the Dramatic Associationwrestled with Shakespeare. I am notsure who won.I am reasonably sure that Antoniolost. Dominic Pizzuti played him as abourgeois Venetian beer baron, andnot too bright at that. Bob Hanson,Kenneth Campione, and Cal Schorerwere undistinguished and indistin¬guishable as Salanio, Salarino, andLorenzo.Grace Farjeon played a pallid andintellectual Portia, with a reverseOedipus complex for the shy andhandsome young Bassanio. The otherromantic interest came from Anne-Marie Gayer as Nerissa, who waspretty with gestures, and Rik Jacob¬son, who w'as good with a leer.Third place in the marital handicapgoes to Sue Pfaelzer’s wooden Jessicaand the above-mentioned Lorenzo, whowas one of the men wearing a yellowsuit.Newcomer Marvin Sholtz played aproud and bitter Shylock, and did avery good job if it, but the choicestElizabethan of the lot was a mannamed George Tressel, who appearedfor eight minutes as quavering, blindOld Gobbo.Frazier Rippy was Old Gobbo’s son(Continued on page four) Charlotte Ford.As the first move in their plan tocoordinate the defense effort on theQuadrangles, the Council has announc¬ed that they are setting up desks inMandel and Cobb with the intentionof registering all men who have hadhigh school ROTC training.This registration will be carried outin order to supply the Council witha list of men with rudimentary mili¬tary training with the possibility thatthey may be asked to assist in theFieldhouse basic training course. Itwas emphasized however, by the Coun¬cil yesterday that there will be noresponsibility or anything bindingconnected with this registration, butthat it will serve merely to assist theCouncil in seeing where they stand.In addition to the registration, stu¬dents will find application blanks forthe Fieldhouse course at the Cobb andMandel desks. A $1 deposit on the $5course fee is payable and students areurged to sign up immediately to as¬sure participation during the WinterQuarter.Meanwhile, it was announced thatnext week will see a more organizedprogram, including plans to form awoman’s Red-Cross unit and begin in¬struction for air-raid wardens.Rate RoundTable TopsIn Radio PollFor the third successive year theUniversity of Chicago Round Tablebroadcast has placed first in the edu¬cational category of the ClevelandPlain Dealer radio poll.The Round Table first won thisaward in 1939, for which it receiveda Hollywood “Oscar’’ which gracesthe University’s studio. For manyyears the Round Table has not failedto place first in one of the many pollsof radio listeners, and has placed highin all polls. Earlier this year theRound 'Table was awarded first placeas the educational program “contrib¬uting most to the safeguarding of ouressential freedoms” by the Women’sNational Radio Committee.No Cover,No MinimumBy DICK HIMMELMeteorologistsBuild UnderRosenwaldBecause the only available spaceopen to the Physical Sciences Depart¬ment was in the basement of Rosen¬wald, elaborate plans have long beenunder way to utilize that area for ahydronamics laboratory. Ryerson wastoo crowded to afford room for theexperiments desired, but it was notfor this reason alone that Rosenwaldwas chosen. Certain problems ofgeology around this building are ofinterest to the staff, and will be work¬ed out there.The most complete apparatus andelaborate hydronamics laboratory inthe vicinity will be installed to facili¬tate the teaching of many difficultcourses. Students in meteorology andphysics will be trained in the princi¬ples of fluid flow and turbulent motionwith application to meteorology.Courses will start the first of theyear although they have long beencompletely ready, and would havestarted earlier if it had not been fortrouble in obtaining building mater¬ials. Two presidents are in the minds ofUniversity students today. One is thePresident of the United States, theother the President of the Universityof Chicago.Last night the President of theUnited States proved himself to be agreat man in a crisis. His speech hadno war jitters or jingoisms, but ratherit was a speech of the ideal Americanmind. A mind that was quick to showcognizance of the gravity of the situ¬ation, yet quick too to keep a cool,shrewd head about it. A mind thatwas calm enough to be practical aboutthe situation and to appeal to thereason of the American mind, ratherthan say “Your country needs younow”, then break into three rousingchoruses of the “Star Spangled Ban¬ner” and leave it go at that.As yet the other president has notspoken. He has not chosen to statehis position concerning this presentwar. What the President has said is that he will “touch upon the subjectin his convocation address of Decem¬ber 19.” I think that he will touchupon the subject sooner than that;for Mr. Hutchins is not a silent hero.Last year Mr. Hutchins showed lit¬tle hesitancy in airing his views onwar and peace from coast to coast.The student body then should feelconfident that Mr. Hutchins will talknow. That he has not been quite soquick this time can be attributed tothe gravity of the situation, and thedanger of his middle-of-the-roadposition, which now must make up itsmind to get on one shoulder of theroad or the other.That this student body demands tohear from its President now, is notunusual. That they have heard fromhim in the past without demandingit, should give them confidence thathe will not be hesitant in talking now.That Mr. Hutchins has always looked(Continued on page two)Page Two THE DAILY MAROON. WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 10. 1941By RUTH WEHLANAtropine... atropine, who’s got the atropine ? Sensational events are happening allover the world, and we can’t see any of them. If we are a little slow to say“Hello” to anybody, it isn’t that we don’t love you; it’s just that we can’t tellone person from another. It seems to be a Bazaar-writer’s traditipn to haveat least one column a year written through the haze of drops-in-the-eyes.Far be it from us to depart from convention.Do you remember the ad we ran, signed “Club Girl”, soliciting a dateto the IF Ball? Glen Moran answered, but he received no reply until afterIF, when “Club Girl” wrote him a note explaining that she had got cold feetat the zero hour. Feverish correspondence has been going on ever since andMoran developing a fine neurosis, he’s that curious. Maybe this is the be¬ginning of a beautiful romance, that is, if Moran ever finds out who “ClubGirl” is. All we know is that she has brown eyes.PartyThe most exciting party of the week-end was hosted by Roy Larson atJane Tallman’s 57th Street hang-out.Frank H. Etherton, looking just likeQueen Bess in flowing robes, clutched abottle Gordon’s Silver Wedding “gin¬ger ale.’- Everybody else clutched picnicsof beer. People kept coming in and go¬ing out, so enumeration of guests mustbe somewhat sketchy. We are certain ofthe\ uninterrupted presence of MaggieMagerstadt, Dick Jacob, Guy Centner, theaforementioned Tallman and Larson, andButch, the cat. A1 Dreyfuss, Clarissa Ra-hill, Betty Chapman and a gentleman ofcolor named Ganymede, were there inter¬mittently. Ganymede brought many bot¬tles and was paid for his pains with thethree inches of liquid remaining inFrank’s bottle. What’s more, he drainedit in one gulp. It was a fine party.Kith and Kin •With the drums of war beating loud and fast, everyone is beginning to..jvx>nder about his kith and kin in the service. The last we heard. Bill Brecken-ridge and A1 Vanderhof were both in Hawaii. We sincerely hope that theyand anyone else we know are safe. Things like Traveling Bazaars and campusactivities seem a little frivolous just now, but we can’t do»much good sittingaround worrying. The most impressive wartime sight we have seen is theMurphy twins in their sailor suits—very handsome indeed. We understandthat Dan Barnes, Dick Orr, and Jack Dryden intend to enlist in the NavalAir Corps, if they haven’t already done so.JeanTo speak of more cheerful things, how do you like the new waitress atHanley’s? Her name is Jean and she is a veritable dynamo. Now that draftcards must be shown to get a drink, Jean takes it upon herself to make surethat no ill will results from the new situation. “Don’t be hurt”, she says, “Iknow you’re old enough, but rules are rules.” She then proves that thereis no personal element involved by rushing around supplying dishes of pop¬corn.Correcting a statement made in our last Bazaar, we should like to saythat Mamie, of the Coffee Shop, was declassed. She is not a waitress, but afountain girl. Beside that, she .wears dangling earrings in her pierced ears,which puts her in a class by herself.ReprintOur thought for the day appeared in the Bazaar, November 2, 1939. Un¬fortunately, by-lines were scarce in those days, so the author of this im¬mortal doggerel must remain forever unknown.“With phrases vitriolicAnd a mind most diabolicI could write a daily column that was slightlyunder par;But 'twould take a mind ethereal 'And an act of God materialTo write a decent Traveling Bazaar.”Al Dreyfuss Ceiling ZeroiBy BILL LETWINIn yesterday's Maroon ap¬peared an article headed: *‘Stu-dent Feeling Serious". All de¬pends what ‘serious means. If itmeans fellows are crying all overthe place, I don't believe it. I seemore people laughing. A refugeeprofessor tells me that in Francewhen war was declared the peo¬ple came into the streets andstarted singing the “Marseilles".Look at the American reactionand you say that forty millionFreshmen were underdoing it.Everybody develops a little sto¬ry. One fellow was walking downthe street, he says, when a speckof dirt flew in his eyes. Liftingthe end of his eyebroiv, he wassurrounded by three G-men whotook him in for an enemy alien.Jap ScalpsA friend of mine meets me onthe street. He asks me hoiv mycollection of Jap-scalps is com¬ing. After I catch the idea, I tellhim I've a dozen already.“Only a dozen?", he asks in adisappointed tone. “Why, I'vegot over a hundred already!”“Well, you .see I 2vas prettybusy Sunday .so I haven't hadmore than oyie day to work onit."“Oh," he replies, “I've been allover town getting them."“Then that," I reply, “ex¬plains a lot of it too. I’ve beengetting them as they came by."Not Japanese PeopleI'm very happy about onething. All this goes on withoutany resentment against individ¬ual Japs. Nobody around here isgoing to fall for the hate-the-Japline when they drag it out. Peo¬ple know that the Japanese gov¬ernment, and whoever is behindit, is responsible for the War.They know that War is no morea pet project of the Japanesepeople than it is of the Americanpeople. They understand aboutthe Japanese what the Englishgovernment has forgotten aboutthe Germans; that they as agroup, as distinct from theirgovernment bear us no hatred.Paleoj^raph 201Naturally no one, and partic¬ularly none of the men students,can feel nonchalant about thewhole thing. Even if you don'tget so excited aboui the thingthat you go out to bomb thenearest Jap embassy, a lot ofthings begin to look different.Your Paper for Paleography 201doesn't seem so significant, ifyou know that you might never(Continued on page four)Campaign For NamesFrom High SchoolsIn an active campaign to secure thenames of high school seniors the Stu¬dent Publicity Board successfully em¬ployed this year the method ofcanvassing the student body, with theresult that two hundred and fifty-onenames were obtained.Cards, which were distributed atthe Humanities and Social Sciencelectures and made available for de¬posit in the ballot box of Cobb Halllibrary, showed that the majority ofnames given were those of studentsliving in the Chicago area.No Cover—(Continued from page one)students in the eye and answeredtheir demands should be indicationenough that he won’t welch now. Thestudents of this University have aright to know what their Presidentis thinking at this moment. They mustbe answered sooner than the 19th, andhave the subject more than “touchedupon”. If the little yellow pixies havenot knocked him from his seat andmade him a different man, “Hutch”will come through. : ; By Degrees —McElroy Brous^esIn 1917 MaroonsBy GEORGE McELROYIf you happen to be a graduate stu¬dent with a stack permit, and you findthat you can't concentrate on Brown¬ing and have developed a violent lackof interest in Beaumont and Fletchersince last Sifnday, one thing you cando is to browse through some old vol¬umes in the stacks which have sudden¬ly become terribly fascinating—vol¬umes of the Maroon, of the Tribune,the University Magazine labeled“1917.” You find yourself trying toreconstruct the feelings of those peo¬ple back then, wondering whether thisis just the same thing over again orwhether something has happened tous in the meantime.In many ways the parallels are al¬most amusing. There had been thesame background of argument for andagainst going in—only they called theopposition “pacifists” then. AnotherSenator La Follette had led them, andbeen told that his speeches soundedas though they came from Germany.A group of pacifists had stormed Sen¬ator Lodge in his den, and the 68-year-old Senator had floored one with aswift right cross. There had been anarmed-ship bill, hut in 1917 Fightin’Bob and his “Little group of willfulmen” had kilkHl it by their dastardly—or heroic—filibuster.Threatened Railroad StrikeThere had been a threatened rail¬road strike, called off at the personalappeal of the president. The Tribuneobjected to an administration whichhad brought us to the brink of warwithout preparing us for it—only thistime the objection was only to thelack of preparation.On campus, an Officers’ TrainingCorps had been organized for a fewmonths, but the enrollment hadn’tbeen high. The mid-West in generalwas much more pacifi.stic than theEast—the New York Yale Alumni hadpassed a resolution recognizing a stateof war two months before congressdid. Observers said that the facultywas much more war-minded than thestudents; they had already passed aresolution calling for universal mili¬tary service. The Maroon editorialshad been fairly belligerent, but theywere evidently trying to whip up en¬thusiasm on an indifferent campus.First Came Gradually;Second a ShockBut the more you read, the moreyou notice the differences. In the firstplace, this war came as a shock. Theother one we got into gradually, choos¬ing our own time. It’s all the differ¬ence between coming out at the gongfor a fight you’ve been training forand expecting, and being cracked frombehind in a dark alley. You neverquite expect that kind of thing, evenif you know you’re in a tough neigh¬borhood and carrying the payroll.'There were no WAR EXTRAS; thelead story in the Maroon on April 6FOUNDED IN 190?The Daily Maroon U the official studentnewspaper of the University of Chicago, pub¬lished morninirs except Saturday, Sunday, andMonday during the Autumn, Winter, andSpring quarters by The Daily Maroon Com¬pany, 58S1 University Avenue.

Theonly notice of the declaration was in“The Whistle,” ancestor of the Ba¬zaar, which nominated appropriatepeople for appropriate jobs—440champ Binga Diamond for the “Re-treat Department,” the tallest redheadfor “flagpole,” some personal friend for“deckhand on a submarine.” In factyou soon realize they didn’t take thewar too seriously. The Tribune wasclamoring for an AEF, but most peo¬ple thought we’d probably fight thewar with our navy and our industries,plus the regular army and nationalguard if necessary.Talked in Terms of CrusadeOn the other hand people talked—one wonders if they thought—in termsof a crusade. The pacifists were brand¬ed as “moral cowards.” The revolutionin Russia w as cause for great rejoicing,for it made the goal ambiguous. Twodays after the declaration there wasa mass-meeting in Mandel to “Wel¬come Russia to the ranks of the de¬mocracies,” w’hich adopted a resolu¬tion, addressed to foreign ministerMiliukov, onetime professor, declar¬ing that:“The moderation, patience, andunity that characterize the new orderwhich has been established will puar-Antee its permanent success”.

WEDNESDAY. DECEMBER 10. 1941 Page Three 'Sports Desk ReceivesExcellent AnalysisWerner A. Baum ^Sports EditorThe Daily MaroonDear Werner,(Writer’s note: Rudolph has been manfully striving by diligent diagnosisfo discover the etioloffy of athletic disinterestedness of University of Chicagoftudents. With the able assistance of three other permanent lodgers at theflujus Dawes Hotel for Men, he has become enciente with ideas on the subject.Jt required a gallon (SOc, no tax) of Peoria Street Invigorator for FailingThinkers’’ to get him to write this so-called article.)* * *The outstanding personality trend at the University is an antagonismto idealism—a refusal to be impressed by anybody or anything, particularlyanything as earthy as athletics. This unhealthy commitment evidences studentmaladjustment which perhaps is unavoidable at Chicago. The fresh¬man, for instance, is always a disorientatetj and bewildered soul. The onlything he knows for sure is that Mr. Maynard Mutchins is a world’s immortal.Hearing on all sides that he is in for a stiff course, the freshman chooses tobend over a book instead of a hurdle and he races for Harper rather thanfor Bartlett.The sophomore is a mental groper who has heard and read so much thathe is lost in dialectic and can’t be sure of anything. Out of this feeling ofworthlessness and uncertainty comes a strong inferiority complex. To re¬lieve this he adopts a pose of cynicism and superiority which precludes anyattention to track or 6eld.From Authentic SourcesThe junior is in a fair way to find himself but has heard from authenticsources that one in need of exercise “lies down until the feeling passes.’’Confident of the correctness of this formula he lies down. Very few athleticfeats arc performed in this position.The senior is temporarily adjusted but is heavily burdened with academictasks, graduation looms, and beyond that lurks a vicious world with which hesoon must come to grips. Hurdles, javelins, and iron balls find no place in hisralrulations.Better BalancedIt is more probable that the athletes at Chicago are better balanced,mentally and physically, than arc non-athletes.Whether it be cause and effect or whether it be fortuitous it is interest¬ing to note that of' those 1,23.3 men who earned major C's in the past 50years only 90 have passed away, (Seven killed in war not included). Therehas not been a death in their ranks for 12 years. Certainly this is a record togladden the hearts of those sodden specialists who burrow in the depressingrealm of vital statistics. It may likewise attest that the athletes are superiormen..'Vspires to Illustrious MannerThe student body, despite a very plain midwestern background, seems toaspire to the illustrious manner. Many are socially inferior and lack facilityfor enlarging their social horizons by beneficial social contacts. For lack ofsatisfying .social contacts and healthy modes of social expression theyevolve into self-.satisfied introverts. Athletics constitute a healthy mode ofself-expression. The athlete is free of cgocentricity and delusions of grandeur.Ho goes forth before the eyes of men to win or lose as the case may be.Happy when he wins, taking it with goodly grace when he loses, and throughit all retaining the self respect of one who does his best at what is given himto do. He knows that in athletics the individual means little—the team’s thething.(Kds, note: The writer, who signs himself Rudolph Randolph, is anojiy-vwus to me. His letter, including his spelling of our President’s name itt pre¬sented herewith because we feel that it is one of the most intelligent, accurateanalyses ever made of Chicago’s athletic situation.) \ Basketball Team Faces LoyolaIn Second Home Game Tonight(Continued from page one)and Krakowka. Heinen may start,however, at guard in 'place ofKrakowka.Seventh in SeriesThe game is the seventh in theseries between the schools, inaugu¬rated in 1935. To date the Maroonshave won two games while droppingfour and scoring 189 points to Loyola’s202. Last year the score read 47-27in favor of Lennie Sachs’ men.This year again, Loyola has a defi¬nite edge on the Maroons on paper.Dougherty, the Rambler center, istwo inches taller than Siska, is threeyears older and has an 18 lb. weightadvantage.At the. forwards, heights will bepractically equal and while Nelson andDwan weigh the same, Fons tips thescales at 190 to Stanton’s 180. BothChicago guards outstrip their oppon¬ents in height.FreshmanProspectsPracticing daily in the Fieldhouseunder the tutelage of aging Nels Nor-Rren, i.s another freshman basketballteam. These are the men who next.vear will have to step up to the varsi¬ty to strengthen a team which willbe none too strong.Lou Nagy, Harold Ellman, ArmondLillian, Joe Cullen, Morrie Goldstineand Harvey Carden are the outstand¬ing prospects.Nagy, a guard, hails from Ham-niond Tech. He w'as co-captain of hishigh school team. Ellman is a trans¬fer student from De Paul where he'^’on his numerals last year. Big,^nigged and an excellent shot he playsat one of the forward spots.Played at Harper HighLillian hails from the home of JohnJorgensen, last year’s freshman star.He was a regular guard on the Har¬per High five. Cullen also played prepball in the Chicago circuit as a centeron the Hirsch High School five. Be¬sides playing the pivot position, hespecializes in passing the ball.OoldcStine is another transfer stu¬dent. He comes from Wright JuniorCollege where he played at center andJtuard. Carden hails from Omaha,Nebraska. A fast forward, he is ex¬pected to go places for'the Maroons.Good ProspectsPossibilities and potentialities are**pparent in the play of Paul Homer,Louis Rothstein, Jack Ballard andJack Lyding.Homer and Rothstein are bothguards. Homer came to the Univer-sHy from Chicago’s near north-westside, gaining his prep experience at'^en Steuben High School. Rothstein,an Afcellent defensive player, is a Meet TheAthleteii i^i iii^GEORGE KRAKOWKA“Carthage High is not a bigschool,’’ said George Krakowka, “butthey have wonderful teams there.”Wiry George, star of the baseball,basketball, and football teams is ina good position to make such a state¬ment. But athletics were not the onlyforte of Krakowka at the Great BendN.Y. school, for he was Valedictorianof the class and won a scholarship tothe University on the basis of hisfine academic record.George played center on the bas¬ketball team which was undefeatedfor two years, tackle on the regionalchampion football squad, and outfieldon another championship baseballteam. Now a junior, he found footballwaning at the Midway when he ar¬rived as a freshman, but found ex¬pression in basketball and intra-muraltrack, tennis, and touchball. For awhile he dabbled in water-polo butgave it up a year later to concentrateon basketball, which sport now findshim a first string guard on this year’squintet. Due to conflicting compre¬hensive exams he has been unable toplay baseball for three years butplans to test his throwing arm oncemore in the outfield come spring.George is far from a “tramp ath¬lete.” His “A” average has earnedhim a scholarship throughout his un¬dergraduate career and he plans toenter the medical school next fall.Affable and easy-going, George is aproduct of Kyle Anderson’s work atthe University High School.Ballard and Lyding come fromIndiana Harbor and Hyde Park HighSchools respectively. Gymnasts PlanCo-ed ShowBy PHIL RIEFFTo lovers of the drama, the duelbetween the Universities of Chicagoand Loyola, in the Fieldhouse,Wednesday, is but a supporting fea¬ture to the main event of the evening.For, excluding Canada Lee’s nightlyperformance at the Studebaker The¬atre, the greatest piece of acting theplay-goers of Chicago will see in alltheir lives, perhaps, is the role CoachLenny Sachs plays on the Loyolabench whenever his quintet is on afioor.Never will you see such frustratedfury, such repressed anger, such vio¬lent spasms of fear (again excludingCanada Lee’s portrayal of RichardWright’s “Native Son”) as you willsee when Sachs beats, cojoles, pleads,threatens, frightens his five slavesinto winning form throughout anyLoyola game.Rules With Iron HandSachs, his dark face twisting intoDr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde contortions,runs his team from the bench withan iron .hand. One of the ablestcoaches in the history of the game,Sachs has fashioned basketball starsout of team managers, and self-styledbasketball stars into team managers.He makes his men, or breaks them inthe making.All Loyola cagers are “Sachsgiven.” The old phrase “there, butfor the grace of Godf goes God” fitshis position at Loyola perfectly.Advises From BenchHe advises his team from the benchin the heat of battle, and can barelyrestrain himself from getting up andscoring the points himself.Whenever I cover a game with Loy¬ola as one of the combatants, I geta box seat right behind Sachs andkeep a careful account of his incom¬parable histrionics. The great actorsare not all on the stage.If the Maroon had the money, anda cameraman, and a camera, I wouldhave a series of slow motion shotstaken of Sachs in action. The dia¬logue would have to be unpublished.Sachs is a violent man. He does noteven belong to the League of Decency.Psi Upsilon and a member of theReynolds Club Council. In additionto his academic and social life, hefinds time to defray his tuition bybeing the treasurer of the Psi U houseand working in the West Stands onSaturdays.Modest and unassuming, it washard enough to get Krakowka to talkabout himself but an even harder taskto get a prospectus for the comingcourt season. “What with Nelson,Fons, Wagenburg, and Siska, weshould have a pretty fair season. Butshucks, don’t talk about me. I’m reallynot an athlete.”Meets Here —Western Conference officialsawarded two championship meetsto the Midway in their conferenceheld in the Hotel Sherman over thepast week-end.The indoor track meet is to beheld here on March 6 and 7 andthe wrestling meet will be held inBartlett on March 13 and 14.The coaches also recommendedthat the outdoor track meet be heldon Stagg Field but the Universityhad to turn down the offer due tocity tax complications which wouldarise were the meet to be held here.Northwestern University was final¬ly chosen as the site. For the first time in Maroon athletichistory, a co-ed gymnastic exhibitionwill be given. Coach Beyer is doubt¬ful concerning the actual date of theshow but hopes that it will be assoon after the Northwestern basket¬ball game as possible. Two of thefeatured performers will be BeverlyBlanksten and Joan Hammel. “Neitherof these girls required much coach¬ing,” explained Beyer. “They came tome as seasoned acrobats.”The problem of keeping the rest¬less fans in their seats after watch¬ing a two-hour game was a knottyone. The gym coach hoped to getaround 4chis by presenting a previewshow at the half to give the audiencean idea of what to expect for themain presentation after the game. Heplans to have pictures of the per¬formers at the entrance to the FieldHouse to further publicize the event.Stars to CompeteBeyer’s list at present include suchnotables among the Maroon gymnas¬tics as the Shanken Twins, Jim De-gan, George Tyson, Stanley Petura,Hal Hum, A1 Ross, Don Robertson,and Art Code. These athletes, alongwith the women, will do individualstatues, duo statues, and larger groupposes.A feature of the show will be aninnovation borrowed from the Danishform of exercise. It will be a groupdance with unison rhythm and will beBeyer’s piece de resistance. NGW under-armCream DeodorantsafelyStops Perspiration1. Does not rot dresses or men’sshirts.
