According to a mem¬ber of the F;0.R. interviewed by theMaroon, “someone evidently reportedthe handbills to the police as possibleseditious literature. The police re¬ferred the matter to the FBI, readingthe handbill to them over the tele¬phone. Then FBI called the DistrictAttorney. Finally they decided itwasn’t seditious, but found they couldbook them on a technicality, becausethe handbills were a little oversize.”Hyde Park police said yesterdayover the telephone that the two menwere booked for “distributing hand-bills in violation of a city ordinance.”Noel Coward’s “Blithe Spirit.” Shehas been doing much to help WarStamps sales since she has been inthe city.

By WERNER BAUMJohn Crosby, member of Psi Up-silon, Iron Mask and the swimmingteam, last night was chosen Presidentof the Inter-fraternity Council forthe coming year.Others chosen to the inner councilare Ed Nelson, Phi Kappa Psi, Vice-President, Wally Kemetick, Delta Up-silon. Treasurer, Mort Pierce, PhiSigma Delta, Secretary and DickRead, Alpha Delta Phi, I-F Ball Chair¬man. These men were chosen by theoutgoing inner council headed by Clay¬ton Traeger.To Meet With ScottAt the same time Traeger announc¬ed that presidents of the severalhouses would meet with AssistantDean of Students William E. ScottThursday at 3 to hear the administra¬tion’s opinions on proposals recentlysubmitted by the Council.In regard to the recent social pro¬bation action. Dean Scott yesterdayexpressed the hope: “That fraterni¬ties will realize that the issue of non-compliance with University rules isone different from the question ofwhether or not freshmen should livein fraternity houses,”The Dean explained that the fra¬ternities had repeatedly been remind¬ed of the existence of the freshmanrule. By checking on the residencesof freshmen, deliberate violations ofthe regulation were discovered.Possible Rule RevisionsDean Scott went on to state that:“The whole matter of regulations inregard to fraternities is now underconsideration and possible revisionsmay be announced this Thursday,”The Dean stated that earlier rushingand earlier pledging will probably bepermitted.The taking over of Burton-Judsonwill not affect the freshmen seriously,according to Scott. Hitchcock Hallwill be set up as a freshman dormi¬tory next year. This will permit fresh¬men to eat at least two meals a dayat fraternity houses.Beta Theta Pi, Psi Upsilon, KappaSigma and Delta Upsilon, now onprobation, will retain that status untilthe day of the Interfraternity Sing.They will be permitted to participatein this and will be permitted to holdsocial functions on the week-end ofthe Sing.Dean Scott stated that he was notcertain that all guilty parties had beendiscovered but that the Universitywould conduct no further investiga¬tion.He warned, i^owever, that: “If dis¬covered in the future, guilty partieswill be in a more precarious positionMrs. MacNairDies FridayMrs. Florence Wheelock AyscoughMacNair, wife of Harley F. MacNair,University Professor of Far EasternHistory and Institutions, died Fridayat the Chicago Osteopathic Hospital.Born in Shanghai in 187 8, Mrs.MacNair was considered an authorityon Chinese art and poetry. Sometimelecturer on Chinese literature at theUniversity, she was president of theAmerican Friends of China and anhonorary librarian of the North ChinaBritish Royal Asiatic Society.Senrices were held yesterday at theFirst Unitarian Church, 67th andWoodlawn. Students completing the new pro¬gram of general education of the Uni¬versity will receive either the Bach¬elor of Arts or the Bachelor of Philos¬ophy degrees. President Robert M.Hutehins announced yesterday.The Bachelor of Arts degree willbe awarded students taking a basiccourse developed by the College fac¬ulty, Students who take a modifiedform of the basic course, in which twoelective sequences of a year each aresubstituted for two of the - generalcourses of the A.B. curriculum, will begranted the Bachelor of Philosophydegree.Because of the war emergency, andthe classification in terms of tradi¬tional degrees of many of the trainingschedules sponsored by the Army andNavy, such as the Navy’s “V” enlist¬ment, students in these groups mayfor the time being work on the tradi¬tional degree basis.Transfer students from other insti¬tutions will be given an option duringthe next several years of working onthe old or the new degree basis. Thisoption is granted because the Univer¬sity must continue instruction permit¬ting students now registered to com¬plete their work for the traditionalBachelor’s degree.The new degree program, except forwar emergency, will become fully op¬erative in 1945-46. Students whosework is interrupted- by Ihe war willbe reinstated under their present pro¬grams when they return to the Uni¬versity.Unless they are enlisted under thedeferred training programs of theArmy or Navy, high school graduateswho enter the University this summerquarter will be under the new plan.

TUESDAY. APRIL 28. 1942Wake Up.It's SpringSpring is here. The Maroon hasbeen saying so editorially ever sincethe tennis courts became popular againand people started studying on thegrass, but no one has mentioned whatan unusual spring it is.Coffee Shop cynics might say springhasn’t changed any this year exceptfor the sudden return to childhood ofcertain students when they get theirhands on whitewash. If the same cyn¬ics were'really thinking deeply, theywould probably go so far as to re¬member that this is the first springthat cokes have been a little hard toget and that tires are even morescarce.Paint on the “C” bench and rootbeer for lunch are, unfortunately, theonly things many of us ever getaround to noticing. One small bombdropped conveniently in the Circlesome day at noon would be about theonly thing that would wake some of usup to the fact that America is still atwar. We may go to first aid lessons ordash around being efficient as air raidwardens if someone prods us into it,but we don’t let our patriotism inter¬fere with our smug little thinkingprocesses.Unlike Mr. Douglas, most of us can’tjoin the Marines but can give the wara little thought and not just pass itoff as somebody else’s war. There isno point in bashing our heads againststonewalls if we are unable to do any¬thing “big,” but we can take time offto think seriously about the war. Astiff upper lip and a bright cheerysmile are all well and good, if theperson making the facial contortionsknows why he is making them thisspring.B. C.By BEATA MUELLERUlysses and Life ...Ulysses Lee has a quarrel with Life.Two penny postcards joined togetherare stuck in every copy, and Ulyssesmaintained that when he turned thepages these postcards made them flipback again. Annoyed by this, he wrotea letter to the editors of Life, request¬ing that they send him his copy with¬out the postcards. “Mr. Lee,” theywrote back, “you are a reasonableman, and must realize that we needthese postcards to get subscriptions.”Mr. Lee wrote back to the editors tosay that he did not feel that his be¬ing a reasonable man or not being areasonable man had anything to dowith the matter; that further he didnot feel that the situation was quiteimmutable; that if Life had a millionsubscribers as indicated, there must bea million copies they could send totheir million subscribers without post¬cards asking for subscriptions; andthat, by God, they had better sendhim his copy without a postcard ask¬ing him for a subscription, if theyexpected him to be able to turn thepages. To this there was obviously noreply; the next copy came withoutcomment and without postcard.Spring Brings Pins ...Ruth Early, on the other hand, hasno quarrel with life at all, having beenrecently pinned. She has a G-man, anF.B.I. badge, and a certificate declar¬ing her “thoroughly investigated.”The G-man, we might add, comes fromIowa, is an authority on pigs, andworks in the Vice Squad of the Fed¬eral Bureau of Investigation.Unauthorized by the Federal Gov¬ernment, but just as serious, is thepinning of Marge Grieder by SigmaChi Jim Foreman. So much for thedepartment of Vital Statistics.Clean-Up Corner...On esthetic grounds we feel forcedto admonish M Fritz, who gets hisfeet under other peoples kitchen sinksand kicks their garbage cans over.This is no way for a literary man tobehave.On moral grounds we ought to com¬mend Leonid Hurwicz, who has de¬cided to return his half of the Uni¬versity’s mathematics books to Eck-hart Library where they came from.“Their filing system is so much betterthan mine,” he said.And on political grounds we willlaud Skull and Crescent. Somebodyhas to. BullSessionBy SID ROLFEThomas Wolfe’s anguished outcriesagainst the inevitable passing of Time,against man’s inability to hold timefor even a brief moment are not new,but at this moment, if American stu¬dents could look to the activities ofstudent movements in America sincethe last war and could distill fromthem, especially from those of thepast decade, any message, it mightwell be “Understand”! To know ev¬erything, w’hile understanding noth¬ing, is to be predestined to futilityand to defeat.Why Organizations FailedShort months ago it seemed as ifthe apathy to world affairs, apparenton our campus, and on many cam¬puses, where formerly students,realizing that they would some daybe the directors of the world’s des¬tiny, had sought actively to under¬stand and better the world, was anominous portent.Now the silence, in retrospect, doesnot seem so ominous; it is breaking—and not too late. We can now realizewhy our student organizations failedso utterly after the war came. Theiressential focus, in later years, was onRussia. The A.S.U. was first split be¬cause Trotskyites and Communistsfought bitterly for leadership on aplane foreign to the average Amer¬ican student. Later, the Russo-Ger¬man pact, the stupidity of the Com¬munist Party and its reflection in itsyouth groups, completed the decay ofthe A.S.U.Time For DiscussionThe two year period of the waste¬land, the silent campus, the befud¬dled, uninformed student, and thelack of organized student action andopinion that followed the necessarydeath of the A.S.U. are uncomfort¬ably reminiscent of the silence of theGerman campuses of 1933, the Span¬ish of 1938, the Czech of 1939, theFrench of 1940, etc. ad nauseum.Nqw the time is again ripe for ex¬tra-curricular politically oriented ac¬tivity that will afford the Universitystudent a place to integrate, to syn¬thesize, to exchange the specializedconcepts he grasps in the classroomfor discussion oriented primarily toAmerican needs, including America,as part of an international organiza¬tion.“Students,” says David Daiches,“need all of the University educationthey can get.” And the type of edu¬cation students needs most is simplynot available in specialized classroomsand labs. It is the education of under-Registrants—(Continued from page one)Samuel Harper, son of the firstpresident of the University, was alsoamong Chicago notables to register.Harper is Professor of Russian Lan¬guages and Institutions at the Uni¬versity.It is estimated that several hundredother University officials and teachersregistered yesterday, many at otherdraft boards throughout the city.All non-service men between theages of 45 and 64 were required toregister. For the most part, yester¬day’s registrants will not see activeduty, though some may be drafted forjobs essential to the war, or to oc¬cupy civilian defense positions.War CouncilGives Free LectureThe Student War Council will spon¬sor a free lecture in Mandel Hallnext Monday, April 4, at 9, in thename of the Ambulance Drive. Noadmission will be charged, but Ambu¬lance Banks will be placed throughoutthe Hall for those who wish to con¬tribute.This is the largest undertaking ofthe Ambulance Drive Committee, andit is hoped that it will prove a success¬ful reminder to the campus as awhole that the drive is still goingforward. Bob Bean has been in chargeof plans for the lecture, and he hasannounced that the campus has beenmost responsive thus far. All the clubsand fraternities have agreed to dis¬band their meetings early to come tothe meeting. From an editorial called “FORPEACE WITH ITALY” printed in theChicago Daily News...“...it might he sound diplo¬macy to make an offer of a sep¬arate peace to Italy.“With Germany, and Japan^peace, short of complete and un¬conditional surrender, is ofcourse inconceivable. But Italyis different.“.. .only by a separate peace,concluded as quickly as possible,can Mussolini hope to have ei¬ther himself or whatever is leftof his regime.“The Italians are an intelli¬gent people. Every one of them,from Mussolini down, mustknow that* the Axis cannot winthis war.“The peace offer to Italy...should be made quickly “For War With ItalyItaly is not different. Italy isFascist, and the Daily News of¬fers peace to Italy.So, for a small delicious time,the Daily News may stand, itshead bent in proper modesty,fussing with the thongs of theirmedal, and listen proudly to thecitation speech that comes withthe tendering of the highesthonor Fascist Italy can bestowupon its servants.After the symbolic medal hasbeen presented, the symbolicspeech might open:“For distinguished service toworld Fascism, the ChicagoDaily News is presented withthe...Now the band strikes up.

Althoughno other American college or univer¬sity has adopted such a revolutionaryplan, many of them have rearrangedcurricula to allow for graduation inthree years instead of the customaryfour. Most of them have enlargedtechnical courses and introduced pre¬military courses, similar to Chicago’sBasic Military 'Training Course. Theresult of this has been increased em¬phasis on the so-called essential sub¬jects and a corresponding decrease ofemphasis on the Liberal Arts.Aid Armed ForcesIn addition to this many schoolshave been cooperating with the Armyand Navy, some by providing quartersfor the men in service and others bygiving.training to officers in such sub¬jects as mathematics, meteorology andengineering. The university of Chi¬cago has been offering such aid to thearmed forces.Prominent among the schools en¬gaged in such work is NorthwesternUniversity which has just dedicateda new $5,000,000 technical institutewhich has already started on extensive NUSwampsGolf TeamThe Maroon Golf squad dropped itsopener, 23-1, to Northwestern in amatch played on the Olympia FieldsCountry Club course Saturday.Bill Harris was the only Maroon tobreak into the scoring column, garner¬ing point in his singles match withGreer of Northwestern and pairingwith Capt.

APRIL 28. 1942Army Announces NewFlying RequirementsTo meet increasing needs of theArmy Air Forces for air crews to manfighting planes and supporting groundcrews, the War Department today an¬nounced a plan to recruit men in thecolleges and universities of the Na¬tion for future requirements of theArmy flying services.*The plan calls for the procurementof Aviation Cadets through prelim¬inary enlistment as privates in theAir Force Enlisted Reserve. The pro¬gram will provide opportunities forenlistment on a deferred service basisso that the aviation cadet candidatesmay continue their education until ac¬tually required for Army training.Students enlisted ‘ in the EnlistedReserve, of course, are subject to callto active duty at any time. The plan,however, is to defer them, permittingfurther scholastic training providedthey maintain a satisfactory scholas¬tic standard.Students whose courses of studygive them the special instruction nec¬essary for meteorologry and communi¬cations will be permitted to continuetheir schooling to enable them to qual¬ify as officers.General Arnold, Commanding Gen¬eral of the Army Air Forces, has re¬quested that colleges and universitiesappoint a Faculty Air Forces Advisorto provide a definite contact betweenthe representatives of the Army andthe college personnel.“This representative,” General Ar¬nold said, “will be kept fully informedof plans and changes in plans, andwith him, the representatives of theArmy will establish a relationship which will facilitate the exchange ofinformation and advice. He will aid toavoid disruption of college activitiesand will bring to the Army’s attentionthe problems that will arise becauseof local conditions.”Florence AdamsContest May 5Preliminaries for the annual Flor¬ence Jane Adams Reading Contest,which awards prizes of $75, $50, and$25, will be held May 5, at 4, in BondChapel, the English Office announcedyesterday.Though an unlimited number of un¬dergraduates may participate, all con¬testants must have been in residencefor six quarters and must be register¬ed in at least two courses this quarter.According to the stipulations of thecontest’s founder, selections must benon-dramatic verse and read with bookin hand. Highly dramatic “recitations”are frowned upon. The time limit isfour minutes, and no former winnermay participate.From the preliminaries, six finalistswill be chosen to compete at 4, May 8,in Bond Chapel.All students must secure the ap¬proval of Professor O’Hara for theirreadings at Ingleside 310, 11:00-11:45,Wednesday and Friday (by appoint¬ment). Registration must be in twodays before the contest begins.Chapel Union IssuesA ^Private Maroon”“Something new was added” to thelist of campus publications whenChapel Union last week put out a“Private Maroon” for University ofChicago men in all branches of the'service.The first issue of the news letterwas sent to fifty %ien whose nameswere given to the committee in chargeby fraternities. Co-ops, and otherorganizations.Included in the five-page “PrivateMa’-oon” is an excerpt from PresidentHutchins’ Chapel address stating theideals and principles to which thepeople of the United States must sub¬scribe if we are to win the peace aswell as the war, an “Easter Prayer”by Dean Gilkey, and miscellaneousnews of the quadrangles. Probably themost entertaining^^atures are pas¬sages from lette^Pwritten by the,service men themsmes. Among themis one from Walt Wolff concerningthe fair sex in Iceland, some lines onhow it feels not to be a general byCody Pfanstiehl, a letter from PearlHarbor, and others from ConnieReinig, Alan McClimon, and Cy Mar-din.Though plans are underway to re¬place the temporary committee ofeighteen with an organized staff.Chapel Union will undertake the proj¬ect only until the administration be¬gins action on the matter. Meanwhilethe publication committee would liketo establish commmunication with asmany University men in the service as possible. All those who know ofsuch students are asked to send theirnames and addresses to the “PrivateMaroon,” Rockefeller Chapel Officethrough the Faculty Exchange.Twelve NewSettlementBoard MembersThe Settlement Board, headed by,Janet Wagner, recently elected twelvenew members. They are Carol Bur¬gess, Bill Dodds, Jim Wenger, HelenBunn, Betty Berthold, Larry Brown,Ann Gardiner, Carla Peterson, FrankWalick, Betty MacNeil, Pep Paulson,and Donald Dewey.The next activity to be sponsoredby the Board will be their annual tagdays. May 6 and 7. All proceeds willgo to the University SettlementHouse behind the stock yards. TheSettlement needs funds more thanever this year, since, because of thewar, they have been badly neglected.People fail to realize that the Settle¬ment has a definite place in the wareffort. It is that of keeping up themorale of those less fortunate thanwe. If they are not fed, clothed, andgiven recreational opportunities, theirunrest would be a serious obstacle inthe path to victory.Cross Country—(Continued from pa'ge three)schools especially have felt this as isevidenced by the fact that in the Mid¬west an average of 10 percent de¬crease in registration has been noted.Contrasted to this Eastern and South¬ern colleges, strongest in favor- ofhelping the democracies before thewar, have shown an average decreaseof only 6 percent since the war. Theseresults cannot be considered conclu¬sive, however, until the beginning ofa new academic year.At the University of North Carolinaplans are being made for the com¬missioning of the “Annapolis of theAir”, next May 16. The first cadetswill arrive at the end of that monthand completion of most of the build¬ings is expected by the 1st of June.In addition to all this assistance be¬ing gi^n by American colleges to thewar effort, many public and privatepreparatory schools are helping bypreparing students either throughR.O.T.C. for military service, orthrough technical courses for vitalwork in science and industry. Salome onCo-op BillWith Dolores Webster playing thetitle role, the Co-Op Players will giveOscar Wilde’s “Salome” May 2, 3,and 4 at the Hyde Park NeighborhoodClub. In addition, the Players willalso do Machiavelli’s, “Mandrake.”The story is a modified version ofI the biblical account of Salome’s ef-j forts to get the head of St. John. InI the Wilde play, Salome convinces! Herod by her dance of the sevenveils that John should die. Eventually,she herself is killed.A favorite with Co-Op audiences.Miss Webster starred in “The Inform¬er.” The Herod of the play, JohnRehr, is a DAer. Haskell Lazere playsJokanaan, while Gloria Edwards isHerodias. Hendrik Jacobson is direct-^ ing the play. Five Former Students(iet Silver WingsBasementsLead to Blues-Boogie WoogieIf (Congreve is right, the charms ofmusic are sufficient to soothe even theUniversity student’s savage breast.For the price of a beer you can bewell-soothed in diverse basements.Of these basements, one of the bestis the 12 O’clock Club on W’abash andOhio, an ex-speakeasy with red plushwalls, a drunk named Dooley, and apiano player called John. John canmake boogie-woogie like PinetopSmith and blues like Buddy Johnson.He plays the piano and sings gently“I ain’t got no future, but 0, Lord,what a past—If the blues don’t getme, no tollin’ how long I’ll last.” Inthe small hours of the morning, hecan sometimes be wheedled to do“church songs—” the stem “Go Down,Moses” and the longing “Look DownThat Lonesome Road.”Another soothing cellar is the 909-Club on North Rush Street, a smalldark place with a wooden eagle overthe bar. Roy, the piano player, is afat man, somewhat bald, with a per¬petual cigaret stub in a holder hang¬ing from one corner of his mouth.“My doctor told me to get away fromcigarettes,” he apologized. He playsanything, but specializes in cake walks—“Georgia Camp Meeting” and “Smo-kie Okes,” performed energetically.Not strictly a basement, but an oldframe house is Art Koch’s Bavaria onDempster Street out west of Evan¬ston. Art, reported variously to havebeen an accompanist for Fritz Kreis-ler and to have been a protege of De¬bussy, plays the piano himself, us¬ually classical music, clowns with thewaiters, drinks beer with the custom¬ers. The Bavaria after the secondvisit ceases to be a night club and be¬comes like home. You will greet thewaiters by their first names, and the26 girl by hers. The waiters and the26 girl will probably reciprocate. Ifyou like to waltz and you aren’t proud,you will like going home to* the Ba¬varia.Alumni of Du Sable High andrepresentatives of Chapel Union,Y.W.C.A., F.O.R., Socialist Club,and Negro Student’s Club will dis¬cuss “The Negro In The War Ef¬fort” in Rockefeller Chapel Officeat 7:30 ^night.Read Swedenborg's"DIVINEPROVIDENCE"lOc in paperat University and otherbookstores Bi-Weekly OCDGturse in KentA school for all civilian defenseworkers in this neighborhood is beingrun every Tuesday and 'Thursdaynight in Kent by the Office of CivilianDefense.About four hundred persons haveenrolled for the course, which is re¬quired for all civilian defense work¬ers.
