DECEMBER II. 1941 Price Three CentsMAROONS DEFEATED 48-31Five Fails To RecoverFrom Slow OpeningOpen Red Cross CourseTo Campus Women InMilitary CourseThe Institute of Military Studies will open a course in first aid to allwomen next quarter, which will run concurrently with the basic trainingcourse for the men given on the same night. The class will meet every Wed¬nesday at Ida Noyes, from 7 to 10, beginning January 14 and closing March18. It will be a standard and advanced Red Cross and First Aid class.Interested women may register now at desks in Mandel corridor andCobb Hall, and also with Miss Zenkere, in Harper E54. There will be a fee ofone dollar, payable in advance.Expect Large EnrollmentMiss Zenkere, Secretary to the,Institute of Military Studies, stated thatthe new course is expected to attract a large enrollment since the war hasmade women more conscious of their role and its importance.“This is not going to be a bandage-rolling group,” she said emphatically.“It is a course in practical, advanced First Aid, and should be a part of ev¬eryone’s education, particularly now, in wartime.” Women who have beenwondering “what they can do to help” will find a knowledge of First Aidalmost a pre-requisite for war work.75 In ClassA class is being given this quarter by the Institute, on Tuesday eveningsat Ida Noyes. It has an enrollment of about 75, including several facultymembers. Since the demand for such a course has grown in the last fewweeks, this number will probably be doubled.Among those enrolled are Mrs. Bernadotte Schmitt, faculty wife, BethSmalley, secretary to the Dean of Students, Mrs. Jean Edgerton, faculty wife,Mrs. C. F. Mitchell, of the comptroller’s office, and Mrs. E. Kleiberg, of thebusiness office of the clinics.Cancel ConsiderIVacations Draft AgeAll Christmas vacations will becancelled for students in the meteor¬ology course in view of the nationalemergency. Dean Carl Rossby, Direc¬tor of the Institute of Meteorologyannounced today after a communica¬tion from Washington.In addition it was learned that “be¬cause classes must get through asquickly as possible”, the class now inprogress will conclude March 1 in¬stead of in June in order to make wayfor a second class, scheduled to beginas soon after March 1 as possible.With Rossby’s announcement, camea report that of the 125 men now en¬rolled in the course, about 100 haveasked for naval commissions, 20 forarmy commissions, with the remain¬der planning to enter the governmentweather bureaus. The belief that theJapanese conflict will consist primar¬ily of naval engagements was heldresponsible for the large increase indemands for navy commissions.The course, which is sponsored incooperation with the Air Corps, theU.S. Weather Bureau, and the CivilianAeronautics Authority has been inoperation for more than a year hereon the Quadrangles.Flying Cadets registered in thecourse receive $127.50 a month, and,after completing the program here,are sent to Selfridge Field where theyare given some flight training.

Dominic Panarese waselected the new president ofthe local chapter of Alpha PhiOmejifa, national service fra¬ternity, at a meeting of thelocal chapter late Tuesday.Joe Simmler was elected tofill the office of first vice pres¬ident, and Bill Mayer-Oakesthat of second vice president.The new officers will be in¬stalled tomorrow at the reg¬ular weekly meeting by re¬tiring president Gene Mindell.Six new members wereinitiated into the chapterTuesday. Vice-President William Benton yes¬terday released the following state¬ment concerning the possibility of thedraft age being lowered to includemen of 18 and its probable effect onUniversity students:“I have no pronounced views onlowering the draft age to 18. Thenational policy has not yet been work¬ed out and I'm not ready to hazarda guess as to how such a draft billwould be administered. During thelast war. President Wilson issued re¬peated pleas to students to stay incollege, right straight up to the pas¬sage of the 18 to 45 draft law.“I think it’s in the national interestfor students to stay in college untilthe government calls them. The pol¬icy for college students of 18 or over,in case the draft bill lowering the ageto 18 is passed, will naturally be de¬termined by the government.”War AffectsAttendance Students eligible for thedraft will knoiv their statussoon, it was revealed by Reg¬istrar E. C. Miller, today. TheSenate Committee on MilitaryAffairs sent a request for in¬formation to the SelectiveService System about the de¬ferment and 'postponement ofstudent induction.Students tvho reached the ageof tiventy-one on or prior toJuly 1, 1941 are instructed tocomplete “The Student Reporton Selective Service Status.”Reports should be compiledunder the supervision of ap¬propriate deans on the basisof enrollment in the College,a division, or professionalSchool.52 RegisterAfter DefenseCounciVs CallFifty-two men answered the Stu¬dent Defense Council’s call yesterdayfor men who have had pre-college mil¬itary training. With Registeriesplaced in Mandel Corridor, Informa¬tion Desk, Cobb Hall and the MaroonOffice, 20 women kept the stands openeight hours yesterday registeringthese men as well as signing up forthe basic military training course.Yesterday saw another hundred mensign up for the course. Phi DeltaTheta and Chi Psi being two morefraternities added to the list alreadyreleased last Tuesday. The remainderof the applications came in throughthe recruiting stations and the In¬formation desk. These stands will re¬main open for the duration of theweek.Meanwhile the Defense Councilmade plans yesterday to mobilize thecampus into a workable defense unit.A meeting was called of the executivecommittee for Friday at 12:30 in IdaNoyes by chairman Dick Himmel,when he also stated that each campusorganization is invited and urged tosend a delegate.The Council also announced at thattime that it was available to cooperate unhickyBy PHIL RIEFFSomething exploded all around theMaroons at the Fieldhouse, last night,and, before they could recover andrealize that there were baskets atboth ends of the floor, Loyola Univer¬sity’s accurate cagers had piled up aseven point lead.

Atthe next meeting Friday a definiteplan will be laid which will include awoman’s unit and a men’s unit forcivilian defense.Class attendance has apparentlybeen affected by the war tension es¬pecially Monday according to a ran¬dom sampling of the faculty.Both the Physical Science and So¬cial Science I surveys reported thatattendance in the Monday discussionsections were “down pretty badly.”Reginald Stevenson, head of the Phys¬ical Science survey, said that the 11o’clock discussion was the one mostaffected.“About as usual” said John Knoxof the Divinity School. AccountingProfessor Dickson reported almost 100per cent attendance.Einar Joranson, associate professorof medieval history, was the only fac¬ulty man who reported a dropping off.Dael Wolfe, associate professor ofpsychology, said that there was aslight decline in his class yesterdaybut didn’t know whether or not it wasgeneral for the department. No Cover,No MinimumBy DICK HIMMELWith Japan sinking ships and caus¬ing a sinking feeling in the pit ofmost people’s stomachs at the sametime, it’s kind of a good idea to geta little amusement and ward off themost common ailment these days, warjitters.First on the lists is a swell Grade“B” movie which makes “A” movieslook a little sick. It’s called “MarriedBachelor” which is a stinking title fora good show.

You gals who find RobertYoung uplifting will be uplifted.The radio still has Dinah Shore onthe air on Eddie Cantor’s show onWednesday nights and she has herown show on Sunday. The HattieCarnegie of song, is still at her bestwith “Honeysuckle Rose”.In the literary line, that friend to man and famous author Gypsy RoseLee has a piece in the forthcomingHarper’s Bazaar about a strandedburlesque troup which is worth whilereading. The “Sub Treasury of Amer¬ican Humor” is thick enough to cheermany an interval between news broad¬casts. Local Bookstores have it.Idle hours can be spent, too, inthinking up war slogans. The onlyprintable one has come from the Il¬linois campus where they are chant¬ing daily, “Set Japan on her can”.This column will be glad to hear anyother similar chips from fertile Chi¬cago minds.On the Chicago stage, “Claudia”seems to be the most durable andamusing hit of the year. “LouisianaPurchase” which is doing a goodishbusiness continues to be a mediocreshow in spite of the star galaxy.

The pity of it all, or per¬haps the only hope in it, is that this notion is offeredto us by honest liberals.It is too much. This saying that give us strengthand we’ll give a knock-out blow to Hitlerism. But thereal trouble I find is that we intend to offer a dem¬ocratic offensive—gloriously dynamic—only after wehave short-cutted our way past present fascism. Wethink little of the minds of people after they have beensubjected to years of the Machiavellian principle. Whymust our peace come after a tremendous period of hateand fear surpassing, technologically at least, the DarkAges?Democratic MethodI have passionate belief in the democratic methodof social change. But I cannot help but feel that hateonly begets more hate in after years as well as in theactual conflict. If we must go this way than I shall goon my way alone, for this war is wrong and more cer¬tainly wrong will be the products of this war.A LetterI have in my possession a letter written by a mem¬ber of the British Navy showing clear-cut that war “isthe bloodiest and foulest thing going. It does not mat¬ter to which side you belong.” The punch line comes asW says “and yet I for one do not want to pipe‘Cease Fire!’ until there is not another Hun left.” He’s-a—Cambridge graduate and not a crackpot. W isjust reacting normally to war’s constant—hate.I hope we have just distribution of wealth and op¬portunity, international amity, and world governmentafter is it all over. But the nature of war—which isconstant—shall determine the nature of the peace.We’re barking up the wrong tree.By Frank Wallick“The true goal we seek is far above and beyondthe ugly field of battle. When we resort to force, asnow we must, we are determined that this force shallbe directed toward ultimate good as well as againstimmediate evil.” So spoke the President of the UnitedStates Tuesday evening, and I believe he has best an¬swered the above argument against war.Another DoctrineThe above writer says that war is “bloody andfoul”, and I say that I and the rest of humanity agreewith him. The people of this earth do not want war.The people do want the opportunity to live their livesas decent human beings, with freedom of expression andfreedom from fear and want.But in our world today there exists another doc¬trine. This doctrine would give to only a few peoplesthe right to economic security, the right to live ashuman beings. It teaches them that they are a “su¬perior race” and as the “superior race” that they havethe right to hold other men as merely instruments tocarry out dreams of power and plenty for themselves.To accomplish the enslavement of the world, perhapsthey would not necessarily like to engage in bloodywarfare. I am certain that they would not object if theworld would passively let itself be enslaved.We Are Given No ChoiceHowever we are not so easily beaten. We have ataste of freedom, of decent living, of economic security.It has taken us centuries to attain what we have, andwe will not give it up passively in exchange for miseryand fear and oppression under the heel of one man.You say that because war is bloody and foul, be¬cause war breeds hatred, it cannot be used as a weaponto secure peace and freedom for the people of thisearth. We know the dangers of fighting evil with evil,but today we are not given a choice as to how to fightfascism. I am certain that if Hitler would have beenwilling to fight this war at a conference table, wewould have been among the first to use the same meth¬od. Today we are given the choice of either passivelysurrendering to fascism or of resisting it in the methodsused by the aggressors.Two Battles To FightThe mistakes of the Versailles Treaty helped leadthe German people to follow anyone who promised themhope and security for the future, regardless of the cost.Realizing that this unjust treaty resulted from thehatred bred by the last war, we know that we have two By MINNA SACHS“/f’a not the men on campus who are worrying aboutgetting into uniform, it’s the women".

WOMEN IN UNIFORM Corps/Story of the day ......concerns Wellington Jones, professor of geography.Mr. Jones was peacefully driving down WoodlawnAvenue when he chanced to pass the Phi Psi house.Suddenly Jones was virtually attacked by a yellowFord, which steamed down Woodlawn at the rate of amile a minute. Well, our erstwhile professor’s ire wasaroused and he decided no model A would ever outdohim, so he followed big Hank Heinichen all over theMidway and the University district. Heinichen finallysettled in the Circle and went to return a book. Uponreturning to his car, he found a miniature dynamo whoasked angrily, “Where’s your driver’s license? I sup¬pose you managed to steal one along the way. If I evercatch you driving a oar again, I will take you in themiddle of the Circle and beat you up. I can do it too.“Well, maybe the Circle isn’t such a good place. Iwill take you in the Phi Psi house and lick the pantsoff you. Now beat it.” Heinichen who is probably twiceJones’ size meekly pulled away at a slightly decreasedspeed—averaging approximately 4 miles per hour.In addition to this, Wellington Jones is in quite astate about his course in geography which deals withthe Pacific. “Fifty men used to be there, fifty men.Now, when it's good, when it's relevant, when theyneed it, six and a half men, six and a half men".

Jack Dwanmissed two attempts from the charitycircle, and Fons and Nelson put inthree points, apiece, to climb into achallenging S3-20 spot. Tietz, a dead¬ly free-throw artist, netted two ofhis eight specialty shots as comparedwith three points by sophomore Dan¬ny Fogle.Even TermsWith the Maroons staying on eventerms during the half, but still at a12 point disadvantage, 36-23, Dough¬erty made a free toss but Crosbietipped in a missed Maroon long shotto put the count at 36-25.The stormy weather broke out inCagers:Foul MoreBy BOB LAWSONIt is obvious from watching lastnight’s game with Loyola that the•Maroons are playing a strange typeof basketball. They foul but no oneexcept the officials are upset about it;certainly the opposition is not.In discussing fouling, a realisticattitude is needed. Certainly, deliber¬ate illegalities have no place in col¬legiate sports. That is a fine idealisticand theoretical statement. It is un¬fortunate that athletes don’t alsobelieve in it.Foul for KeepsNo one can watch even five minutesof a collegiate basketball game with¬out being aware of the deliberatefouling. But when the other teamsfoul, they foul for keeps. One of thetop-notch coaches in the country ad¬vises his team that if they see theyare going to foul to make it worththeir while.Joe Stampf was one of the mostidealized players in the country lastyear. Everyone felt sorry for him be¬cause he was being fouled so obviouslyand so often. But Stampf was prob¬ably the dirtiest player to play in theFieldhouse. He fouled consistently inevery game; half of the time the manhe fouled was the one penalized. Thereis certainly a moral in that tale.Need More OakleysWhat Chicago lacks in ability, itshould make up in fouling. Bob Oak¬ley is a good example of the type ofplayer the Maroons need. Perhaps hedocs not foul intentionally, but he is•> rough type of player who can holdhis own against even teams like Illi¬nois and Minnesota who play basket-hall as though it were football.The team must face the situationrealistically. There is no place formoralistic platitudes if the Universityi'^ to play Big Ten basketball. Mostof the Western Conference schoolsplay a much rougher game than doesboyola.Fouls HelpThis is by no means an admonitionto rely purely on rough tactics to win,but they certainly help. A couple ofwell-placed hips in the belly or elbowsin the Adam’s apple would havebroken up Loyola’s pick-off plays ef¬fectively last night. Similar tacticswould have destroyed much of MikeDougherty’s effectiveness on reboundshots. It took Mickey Rottner a fewminutes to reorganize himself afterhe spit out his front tooth, followinga collision with an elbow.Chicago does foul; their total of 26personals last night proves that. Buttheir fouls consist mostly of holdingonto an opposing player’s shirt orhacking slightly. The opponents mustbe made wary of guarding too closely;they must be made to realize thatChicago basketball players do notread Emily Post aS' a guide to actionon the basketball court. its full fury, with Siska, Nelson,Krakowka, and the Rambler, Stanton,out of the tilt on fouls.Rottner shook off Dan Fogle anddrove the length of the floor for astep-in tally, and putted another threepoints in before Heinen scored on afree throw. Dougherty, now taking along delayed beating in the center’scircle, hooked for two, and Bob Oak¬ley balanced it with another success¬ful shot.Exchange Free ThrowsHowie Husum, Maroon forward,and Tietz, the master of Joe Stampf’sold trade, exchanged free throws andFons made his last basket to makethe tabulators read 46-31 with only aminute left for the aggressive Nor-gren group to manufacture a miracle.Despite a desperate fight by thehost five, Rottner and Dougherty ac¬counted for an extra free throw andbasket, respectively, to write finis tothe Maroon upsurge at 48-31. O — ins’SPORTSWith WERNER BAUMSports EditorCongratulationsCongratulations, fellows! On what?On 26 personal fouls. You were inthere fighting every minute and that’swhat we need.The tally sheet reads as follows:Fons 2, Nelson 4, Crosbie 3, Kra¬kowka 4, Oakley 2, Husum 3, Hei¬nen, Lifton, Zimmerman and Fogel,one each.You outfought the Ramblers everyminute. They won because (1) theyhave an excellent team; much betterthan many of the Big Ten fives whichyou must face during the coming sea¬son; (2) Too many of the personalswere on Bob Tietz, Loyola’s sharp¬shooting guard, who made eight giftshots while missing only two; (3) You’re still “off the beam.” A little'more time and you’ll find the range;(4) The back-board play under theopponents’ basket is poor. You wouldhave sunk a lot more points, had youcaptured some of the rebounds; (5)From the beginning you were out-jumped every time. Dougherty andDwan were too tall.The score during the second halfof the game read 26-21, and thisagainst a superior team. Keep thisup and we’re a cinch to win a coupleof conference games.Jack Fons deserves special com¬mendation for his excellent job ofguarding red-headed Mike Rottner.Only last Monday Rottner scored 26points against Arkansas. Jack madehim pass the ball during the entirefirst half and the Loyola captain washeld to a meager six points by thevirtue of two baskets and two freethrows.

Presses ForImmediate ActionAgainst Axis Stock Guest At FirstSymphony ConcertPressing for immediate military ac¬tion against all the Axis powers, theUniversity’s chapter of the AmericanStudent Union passed a resolution lateTuesday night calling for an imme¬diate declaration of war on Germanyand Italy.Drawn\up by the Union’s executivecommittee, and revised before a pub¬lic meeting of 25 people, the resolu¬tion reads:“America has been attacked.“The University of Chicago chapterof the American Student Union placesitself, with the rest of the Americanpeople, unequivocally behind the Pres¬ident and Congress in the present waremergency and will do everything inour power to assure a democraticvictory.“The A.S.U. has opposed Japaneseaggression since 1936 and now thatAmerica itself is the victim of thataggressive policy, we will continueour fight against Fascism.“The A.S.U. recognizes that Tokiois an integral part of the Rome-Berlinaxis and that we cannot isolate tKefight against the whole axis. There¬fore, we call for continued Lend-Lease aid to the Allies and for animmediate declaration of war on Ger¬many and Italy.“We support Dean Brumbaugh’sstatement to the effect that thereShowing the definite influence ofTrend in its vastly increased literarysection, a 40-page Pulse is out today.Those who like strong doses of mod¬ernism, badly imitated, will like theliterary material.Two features make this magazine^tstanding. The vast amount of ex¬cellent photographs and the ignoringof the war make it ideal.Three columns are introduced.“Scratch the Surface” is a gossipcolumn, admittedly vicious, and de¬votes its space to attacking TravelingBazaar writers. Int House is a spe¬cial interest column. Fieldhouse,sports column, is poor and shows littlepromise. The gossip column shouldprove interesting.The news stories are competentlywritten and good coverage is given.Especially good is the story on thesplitting of the French 101-2-3 com¬prehensive.Particularly ironic is the article onmodem poetry by Hope Raymond inwhich the modem style is vigorouslyattacked. Most of the poetry in themagazine is stream-of-consciousness.One entitled, “Dream Sleep” by Dun¬lap Oleson is a standout, if only be¬cause of ^ts gmesome nature.Gerald Hill’s “I, Jane Rolney” is a should be no discrimination againstthe Japanese students.

To increase physical strengthand vigor.2. To help some young person tostrange story. It is intensely andemotionally written. It’s difficult toevaluate the quality of the story be¬cause of the obvious sincerity of thewriter.One of the best features is a poem,“Biological” by Marie Boroff, a hu¬morous epic about Biological Sciences.It is cleverly done.Two new books, one a posthumousvolume by Grace Abbott, the other byHugh Knowlton have just rolled offthe University Press. Miss Abbott’sbook “From Relief to Social Secur¬ity,” is a collection of addresses andpapers on the development of the newpublic welfare services and their ad¬ministration.The late Miss Abbott was the onlysocial worker at the head of an im¬portant ^federal bureau when the' col¬lapse of ’29 came.

The majority of the clothes have beensent to Britain but in the future a larger share will be used in the UnitedStates.More than 1200 pairs of stockings have been knit by the unit as well as280 pairs of children’s stockings. Surgical dressings, which were one of theinitial projects of the unit, have reached a total of 2100 already completed.Over 400 children’s and women’s dresses have been made in the last fewmonths.The traditional grey flannel is not used by the unit for any of thegarments. The children’s snowsuits are all made of green tweed while thedresses are made of blue wool. The sweaters, little boys’ suits, mittens, andscarves are knit of different colored yarn rather than the usual khaki wool.Finest Needle WorkOf all the articles made by the group the pink and blue layettes showperhaps the finest needlework. Special care is taken that all the garmentswill be as attractive as possible as the Red Cross has found that in bombedareas eye-appealing garments are appreciated for their psychological effects.When the Red Cross itself can not supply them with trimmings for theclothes the International House unit donates the colored thread, buttons, andbright handkerchiefs.Although the unit is a clearing house for neighborhood Red Cross workthe majority of the 400 workers have university affiliations.
