ChicagoMaroonPublication of News and OpinionsVol. 1, No, n Z-149 April 2, 1943 Price Four CentsErika Mann AddressesU of Chicago AudienceErika Mann, radio news commen¬tator and lecturer, will address ameeting in Mandel Hall, April 10, ateight o’clock. Proceeds from the lec¬ture will go to the World StudentService Fund.Miss Mann has broadcast from theBritish Isles and from 'short wavestations in the United States to Ger¬many and other German speaking por¬tions of Europe, explaining the truenature of Nazism and showing thecrimes of the Nazi leaders.The Mann family left Germany tenyears ago and became voluntary exilesas a protest against the Nazi regime.Erika Mann, daughter of ThomasMann, returned to Germany in peas¬ant disguise to rescue the manuscriptof her father’s novel, “Joseph and HisBrethren.’’In addition to her broadcasting ac¬tivities, Miss Mann is author of“School for Barbarians’’ and “TheLights Go Down’’ and co-author withher brother, Klaus Mann, of “Escapeto Life’’ and “The Other Germany.”She has contributed to “AtlanticMonthly,” “Vogue,” “The Nation,”and “Mademoiselle.”Her own satirical revue, “Pepper-mill,” in which she was author, direc¬tor, and actress, was performed in sixcountries and was produced in Amer¬ica soon after her arrival here.For the duration of the war, how¬ever, Miss Mann expects to devote asmuch time as possible to her radiobroadcasts and to helping to hastenwhat she believes will be the eventualrevolution against the present regime.Miss Mann devoutly hopes thatwhen victory has finally been wonthat the mistakes of Versailles willnot be repeated. She wants to seean organization like the League ofNations set up, and she hopes, too,that Germany will not be ruined eco¬nomically because she says that iswhat gave rise to Nazism.570 Less StudentsRegister ior SpringDespite the fact that registration ofnew students in the University of Chi¬cago (for'spring quarter) suffered a5% decrease from 4135 to 3904, it wasevident that the war had impresseditself to a considerable extent on theoverall picture. The courses takenhave adapted themselves to the needsand values of a new kind of collegeeducation.Thus the Physical Science depart¬ment,* including meteorology and elec¬tronics, enjoyed a jump of 115%. 17%more students entered the medical de¬partment.At the same time courses havingless or little to do with war and itsneeds have taken a beating. Typicalof this is the fact that the law school,already hard hit, has had to take a66% slash in enrollment.Rumors about the Business Schoolare running rampant around campus.Because this school has been largelypatronized by male students at theuniversity up to this time, it is believ¬ed that eventually the Business Schoolwill close its portals for the durationdue to decreased registration. In ad¬dition to this, it is well known that^ho Business School hafj been gradually losing its faculty. Erika MannWAC Reveals DanceFor MeteorologistsNow it can be told! The WAC,perhaps in answer to the MAROONdrive for greater campus informationon the progress of the War Activitieshas -announced, publicly,its plans for a second dance for themeterologists. The Esoterics and Mor¬tar Boards will act as hostesses atthe tea dance Sunday, April 11, at thePhi Psi house.The first in this series occurredMarch 14 w.hen Quads and Sigmasentertained. Over fifty guests ap¬peared, the Phi Psi’s cooperated will¬ingly and the USO committee of theWAC, headed by Sue Bohnen, wasduly elated. However, the whole partywas surrounded by the usual mantleof secrecy with which Mr. Schwabhas veiled all of the committee’s plans.The MAROON received such a defi¬nite refusal of any printed publicitythat the party sounded much morelike a conspiracy than a gala socialaffair.However, this party has changed instatus and is considered campus news.It was originally • planned for theAlpha Delt house, but the influx ofpool tables and other Reynolds Clubequipment made this impossible, sothe Phi Psi’s agreed to donate theirhouse again this week. The commit¬tee hopes that other fraternities willfollow this example and aid the com¬mittee in planning more parties.IMS WinnerThe first battalion, under Capt. Pat¬terson, won the field exercise of theInstitute of Military Studies at theend of the Winter Quarter* Lt. Col.S. Z. Eleveld, head umpire, announcedat a joint meeting of the two bat¬talions last Thursday.Both battalions were lauded fortheir aggressiveness and astuteness inapplying the principles learned in thecourse.Neither battalion was able to attainits objective. Both elected to inflictcasualties upon the enemy instead.However, the 2nd battalion, underCapt. Harry Roberts, suffered morecasualties than the Thur°dsy nightgroup, and therefore lost the fight. THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO OFFICIAL STUDENT PUBLICATION^Greeks Face Extinction!Silver Cordby S. HowardYear's Best Fraternities Folding,5 Stop Meal ServiceBy Barbara WinchesterTo prove that all campus organiza¬tions have not retired for the durationor have not died a natural death, DAis presenting “The Silver Cord” forone performance only tomorrow eve¬ning in Mandel Hall at 8:30.“The Silver Cord” was written bySidney Howard, author of the Pulit¬zer Prize winner, “They Knew WhatThey Wanted,” which starred CaroleLombard and Charles Laughton in themovie version. Howard is an Ameri¬can author and has been an editor andstaff member of Life magazine.Conflict!!“The Silver Cord” is a psychologicalstudy of a mother who has been moti¬vated throughout her life by the beliefthat motherhood is a career. Thisbelief clashes violently with her elderson’s wife and the younger’s fianceein Mrs. Phelps’ struggle to bind hersons to her even when they are grownmen.The DA board has been scurryingaround during the past month locat¬ing interested women and grabbingany remaining man who has ever hadthe faintest dramatic leanings, to workon production. Due to the efforts ofDick Peterson, production manager ofthe Board, an efficient production staffhas been assembled, and all knowndifficulties have been surmounted.Stellar CastA -stellar cast has been" TeheSTsingevery possible minute for the last fewweeks, and recent rehearsals showthat “The Silver Cord” will definitelybe one of the leading productions ofthe year. Edith Rhoads and CynthiaSibley are capably playing the leadingroles of Christina, the daughter-in-law, and Mrs. Phelps, the domineeringmother. Dick Holland, Clare Stein¬berg, and George Klumpner play thesupporting roles.Thomas Absent ButKrueger Goes OnBecause Norman Thomas did not ap¬pear at the Socialist Club rally lastTuesday night, Maynard Krueger wasforced to run the show. He touched onevery weakness in the framework ofthe war. He elaborated on the justgrievances of people, and had his au¬dience literally nodding in agreement.In speaking of the futility of the lastwar, he implied that this war will bebe futile. He spoke of the situation inIndia, of the question of the Negrodiscrimination, of growing reaction incongress and the state departmentthat the people of occupied Europe andthe colonial Nations cannot possiblytrust our war aims. He indulged ina good deal of sniping, aimed at theOWI, Roosevelt, referred to as “thegreat white father,” at the Soviet Un¬ion, which he compared to Nazi-Ger-many, at the Democratic party, andat the labor movement. His conclus¬ions were simple; that “victory” canjust as easily mean fascism for us, asnot, and that the only party whichoffers any hope to America for apeaceful, happy, etc. world after thewar is the Socialist Party.Exhibition at IdaA “Dance Symposium,” sponsoredby the Chicago Dance Council, willbe held at Ida Noyes tomorrow. Regis¬tration will start at 9:00, followed bya modern dance demonstration. Reynolds ClubShift to A D PhiHouse April 6thThe Reynolds Club has passed overinto the hands of the enemy. With thesigning of the lease between the col¬lege and the alumni of Alpha DeltaPhi fraternity Wednesday afternoon,plans for the liquidation of the Clubwere wound up for good.Thus, after close on two weeks ofnegotiation, the matter has beeen fi¬nally closed. As stated in the MA¬ROON last week the institute of me¬teorology put their finger on the Rey¬nolds Club and demanded its full fa¬cilities as space for their headquar¬ters on campus. Searching for a sub¬stitute, the administration hit on thelarge Alpha Delt house right acrossthe street as a substitute. The AlphaDelts, with a large mortgage on theirhouse and two-thirds of the chapterdrained by the army jumped at thechance. Negotiations were opened.Lease SignedLast Wednesday the lease of rentalwas signed. As a result the followingconstitutes the probable course ofevents within the next week.The Reynolds Club will close shopnext Tuesday, April 6th. At that sametime the army will take full posses¬sion and the Alpha Delts will vacatethe basement and first floor of theirhouse. These will be converted intopool-room and iounge respectively.Left to the brothers will be the firsttwo floors of bedrooms, one of whichmust be lost May 1st.Alpha Delta PhiThe only vestige of the old days leftin the Reynolds Club building will bethe barbershop. That and the Men’sRoom will carry on for the duration.Thus is concluded a deal that canonly work to the good of all parties.The Reynolds Club is taking over thenewest and second largest fraternityhouse on campus. The Alpha Delts cancongratulate themselves on, by quickaction, getting a better break thanmost other houses can look forward towithin the next few months.Important LossThis marks one of the most farreaching of the armies recent ap¬propriations on campus. The Reynoldsclub, long the haunt of inveterate poolsharks, ping pong players and mag¬azine scanners has played an impor¬tant part in university life for overa generation. Its loss will be keenlyfelt.Army TestsApproximately 400 young men ofdraft age took a series of tests at 9:00this morning to determine theirchances for a commission in the army.These tests were open to everybody oncampus who cared to take them. Theywere held at Lexington, Cobb, Zool¬ogy, Pathology, Abbott and OrientalInstitute. By Sheldon NewbergerFraternities, the earmark of everythriving peacetime campus, are dyingon their feet. Their members, suckedin a steady stream into service, theymake shift with slashed chapter rollsand negligible receipts. With each callof new men—E.R.C., V-7, air forceand the rest, each one reels back on itsheels and watches 10 or 12 more bro¬thers leave.This week the death of fraternitiesat Chicago recorded its first install¬ment. One of the biggest fraternitieson campus. Alpha Delta Phi, closedshop, because the Reynolds Club need¬ed its house. Deke, another of the ‘bigthree’, counted its last remaining daysof life. With their example as aprophesy other fraternities on campusstood by and wondered where theythemselves would be two or threemonths hence.Prospects VagueIn regard to the other fraternities,there is nothing specific. Most of themwill lose from one-third to one-half oftheir membership by the end of themonth. However, the general hope ishouses, at least through the springquarter and possibly all summe’’.According to Marvin Greenberger,President of Pi Lambda Phi, the Uni¬versity has promised to allow fraterni¬ties to keep their houses unless theFraternity itself asks to be taken over.Thus far, in order to meet expenses.Pi Lambda Phi has been boardingelectronic students, and has no inten¬tion, at present, of availing them¬selves of the University’s offer. PsiUpsilolT'and Phi Kappa Psi are alsohousing electronic students.No More MealsMany fraternities have stoppedserving meals, due to the ever inreas-ing loss of membership and the cor¬responding rise in prices. Among thehouses affected are Sigma Chi, DeltaUpsilon, Delta Kappa Epsilon, PhiSigma Delta, and Beta Theta Pi. ZetaBeta Tau, another fraternity affectedby these econonmy measures, has alsoreported that the University askedthem to take inventory of their house.Alumni of Delta Kappa Epsilon andUniversity officials are currently con¬ferring over the possibilities of dis¬posing of their house for the duration.According to John Leggitt, vice pres¬ident, a discussion is expected in afew days. He, personally, is pessimis¬tic concerning chances for keeping thehouse after this quarter.In all the fraternities on campusdwells the assurety that their time to(Continued on page four)Mortar Board Red CrossUnit is Opened to AllMortar Board has opened its RedCross unit uiembership this week toall women students who wish to vol¬unteer.

Perhaps my personal dislikes are not souniversally held as those of Mr. Grafton and hisliberals in arms. Nevertheless they are felt withequal or even greater sincerity.First are the democracy shouters. They canbe recognized in a flash with such phrases asthese. “We are for the little people. We fightfor the guy who gets pushed around, bulldosed,and beaten over the head with a blunt instru¬ment. We are the defenders of the commonman.”To my mind words like those do nothingbetter than defeat themselves. At first theireloquence strikes most people like a pile driver.They are impressed; they feel themselves therecipients of a great message. But after a verylittle while the ordinary guy who reads the sportssection and the funny papers will say “My God,there they go again,” and turn the page. Idealsthat are in themselves fine ^nd commendablecome to bear no more weight than the commer¬cials on “Backstage Wife” and “Mary Marlin.”Next are the warlords of the microphone.They have a fine time. To them the mere processof standing at the mike and shouting maledic¬tions on the head of Hitler is a military victory.Across the nation, from the depths of a millionloudspeakers,they prophesy a day of deep dankdoom for the men of Germany. Listen to themboast of our factories, our arms.But this is not a war of revenge. Our waraims are not to crush and grind and scourge theGerman people. We must realize that now, inthese days, we of the United Nations bear aresponsibility not only to ourselves but to thatreservoir of beliefs and values we call God. Whenthis war is over we must not burn and destroy;we must bui\(d upon the foundations of decencyand forgiveness a world where such things willnot come to pass again. Those men who gloatover post-war vengeance do not recognize thatresponsibility.My third prejudice is a matter of greatsubtlety and can best be illustrated by a nationaladvertisement current in all the slick magazines.A dead soldier is represented lying on a battlefield. In the background a shattered bulwalk hasshaped itself into the rude form of a cross.Around his head a spiral of tangled barbed wireresembles nothing so much as a halo.But the soldiers of America are not saints.They are not heroes. They are doing the job ofany honorable man in times of war. For a soldierto defend the ideals he cherished, the people heloves, is not an act of heroism, it is a duty. Themen of our army fight well. For that both weand they may be proud. Men have fought thusfor America before, at Saratoga and Gettysburgand the Argonne. It is expected of them.For that reason they are not heroes, and Ithink a soldier knows that fact more than any¬body. He does not want, when this war is over,to be decked with a laurel wreath and serenadedwith brass bands. It would be far better if theysay to him “you had a job to do. You did yourjob as well as you could. Let’s forget how noblyyou won the war and start thinking how to makethe winning worth while." |A Fair Deal For UsBy Dave SmothersWar is a factor bound to cut a swathe in anyprogram of campus activities. That is what hashappened on this campus. Blackfriars, Mirror,Reynolds Club, PULSE, all have found them¬selves unable to keep going. Right, now the CHI¬CAGO MAROON finds itself approaching thesame predicament.At this date it is fighting to keep its chin abovewater and the administration of the Universityis not helping it. Our advertising and staff havebeen cut to the point where it’s a hard job to pub¬lish any sort of paper at all. We of the MAROONare doing the best job we can. Therefore it ishard to see why certain members of the facultyhave chosen this time to bear down on us as hardas possible. At various times when we have hadscarcely enough money to publish we have beenforced on the shortest notice to raise our quotaten or fifteen per cent. This issue is a case inpoint. Under circumstances such as these, it ishard to work on any basis whatsoever.A college newspaper, whatever its quality, isa basic necessity on any campus. A universityneeds means to bring the news to the studentbody and means to express the opinions of thatbody. Moreover, a paper such as the MAROON isespecially necessary in war time. For that reasonit should not only be left alone but helped asmuch as possible. And hdp is one thing of whichthe MAROON is getting none.This is not the case of other colleges all overthe country. There campus newspapers have notbeen forced to retreat from a daily to a weeklystanding. There they have been helped and nothindered in their efforts to keep alive under, thepressure of war time. Indiana, Michigan, Purdue,Illinois, Kansas—colleges all over the countrystill enjoy a good, adequate newspaper. Chicagodeserves the same.The MAROON is not begging for help. What itis asking for is a chance to keep going. With oth¬er campus activities falling by the dozen we be¬lieve the MAROON is one thing that should notgo. Our paper holds a definite place in a campusconverted for war. The student body of Chicagodeserves a better MAROON and we of the MA¬ROON deserve a better deal. As things stand atpresent, neither party will get either.Old Enough To Voteby Jessie PolachekLast week a few enterprising young folkswent around asking the general population toI sponsor a telegram to the.Illinois State Legisla¬ture urging the passage of the bill to lower thevoting age to 18 years. Surprisingly enough, sothese people thought, many responded to theeffect that “18 year olds don’t know enough tovote.”Today the 18 year vote is a realistic possi¬bility. No one can deny that young people aremore mature and responsible than they have everbeen in the history of the world. Our generationis a generation of war-workers, students, sol¬diers. The argument that 18 year olds do notknow enough to vote is an old one. It is thesame argument that was used to block the 15thamendment, the 19th amendment, the anti-polltax bill. It is the old argument against democ¬racy, that the people are ignorant and child-like,that they need a wise, fatherly protector on theorder of Alexander Hamilton, to make all deci¬sions for them.These 18, 19, and 20 year old infants are verymuch a part of the war effort. They should havethe power to determine certain measures regard¬ing it. Picture the attitude of U of C studentshad they been able to vote in the last election.The election would have been transformed froma pleasant academic game to a life and deathquestion. And ask yourself this question; arenot college students intelligent enough to vote?Is not a lathe operator responsible enough tovote? Does not a marine, torpedoed twice in thePacific, know something about the war, no mat¬ter what his age?

ScottRogers deserted the Wisconsin womenLetter ToThe EditorTo the Editors of theCHICAGO MAROON:Gentlemen:You have to date devoted severalcaustic columns to the discussion oflack of news from the War ActivitiesCommittee. Your principle message tothe world seems to be that the WAC,as a major campus organization, hassome sort of moral obligation to hirethe Maroon as press agent. The activ¬ities of the Committee are proceedingthrough the efforts of its members.They are proceeding far more effec¬tively than those of the former WarCouncil, which was more generouswith its publicity.The new Committee feels that fonn-er efforts were hampered by confusingI publicity as an end. of success rather! than as one of the means. You canstop totin’ your gun against Mr.Schwab. The members of the WACare perfectly free to release news oftheir activities, when "they feel suchpublicity as offered is of advantage.One week before the Maroon firstspanked the organization appeared astory giving the details of the RedCross drive for funds. As other proj¬ects are formulated, it can be expect¬ed that their details will be similarlyreleased.In your .plea for news from theWAC, you overlook the fact that whenyou do get a story, you beat up theorganization, give abundant publicityto its mofe unfortunate aspect^, andthen are only too eager to print theobituary. .SincerelyCarolyn Friedman.When the MAROON expressed itsrather low opinion of the WAC it didso after a long effort to discover itstrue 'nature.

Don’t delay. rived at the decision that the WACvalued its maiden modesty much toohighly.The WAC, as we have indicated,owes a responsibility to the campus.That responsibility consists of givinga thorough account of its activities tothe campus.

Because the Army is taking over the ReynoldsClub, the coaches yesterday packed up their belongings and' wearily shuffled over to their new quarters in the North Standsof Stagg Field.The athletic office Hegira began back in 1941. At that timethe Navy requested the use of their spacious and cozy head¬quarters at Bartlett Gymnasium. The department split. Thewrestling, gymnastic, squash, rifle and fencing groups establish¬ed offices in the West Stands of Stagg Field, where most of theteam-practice facilities are. The tennis, baseball, basketball,swimming and track departments were set up in the comfortablebut limited quarters on the third floor of the Reynolds club.Then came the Army.So now half the staff will be found in the desolate “Warm¬ing Room” in the North Stands, connected to the outside worldonly by Alexander Bell's little invention. They can feel fairlysafe there, for even if the Marines tried to find them, they wouldneed experienced guides, three months’ provisions, and two ofthem would probably become lost in the labyrinths.Philosophically we sigh, “C’est la guerre!”Theimer andDaly to LeadGreen NetmenEarl Theimer and Grover Daly, bothfrom last year’s “B” squad, will formthe nucleus of this year’s tennis team,announced Coach Wally Hebert as heviewed with puzzled apprehension thecoming season.Except for Bob Tully, who was onthe “B” squad two years ago, theremainder of the team will be com¬posed of newcomers, mainly freshmen.With only a little more than twoweeks before the scheduled openerhere with Illinois Tech Phil Glotzer,Frank Trovillian and Lou Deitelbaumare fighting for a place on the squadagainst Dick Fine, Emil Ritter, DickWhiting and Henry Reinhart.“Our only hope is that other BigTen teams have been hit as hard aswe have,” sighed Hebert.Illinois has lost Benny Migdow,freshman star from Crane Tech andNU has l6st Bobby Jake to UncleSam, to give you an idea what thecoach means.Schedule for the coming season:April 20—Illinois Tech21—Wheaton24—Wisconsin26J—Northwestern29—Notre Dame.30—MinnesotaMay 1—at Wisconsin3—at Illinois6—Michigan8—Ohio State10—at Northwestern13-14-15—Conference Meet atNorthwesternBOOKSTo Guide YouAVIATION DICTIONARYby Assen Jordonoff $3.50A PILOT’S METEOROLOGYby C.

In addition, Ralph Bennett, oneof our meteorology cadets, was secondin the 600 yard run, and Hal Gordonwas third in the same event. McCaafinished second in the 300 yard dash tocomplete the Maroon winners.Chicago was without the services ofWhitey Hlad, who at the time was inLafayette, Ind., acquiring the 60 yardhigh hurdles championship and run¬ner-up honors in the low hurdles inthe Purdue relays. Fencing—Marjorie Bohnhoff, Caroline Allenand Kitty Wilson will represent theUofC at the Women’s Illinois Divi¬sional Foil Championship to be heldin the West Stands Sunday at 11:30a.m.In the Men’s meet held here lastSunday, Art Cohen, Maroon Big Tenfoils champion, was defeated by twomembers pf the Lake Shore AthleticClub and finished third. Leon Strauss finished sixth and Bob Wiley waseliminated in the preliminaries.UP Plans "Tovarich"Although dispossessed from thearmy-snatched Reynolds Club theatre,UP is hatching a new production,Tovarich, last for the duration withmany men in it, which is scheduled tobe produced April 16 and 17 in MandelHall. The UofC baseball season makes itsbow tomorrow as the Maroons meet aNavy nine composed of men in theNaval Signal Corps and Radio Schoolat 3 p.m. at Greenwood Field.Although the game will only be ascrimmage workout, it will enableCoach Kyle Anderson to discover whathe has on hand. As yet, positions arevery undecided, but the team is begin¬ning to shape up.Bob Nelson, Dick Reynolds and BillCorsen will probably do the pitchingtomorrow. First base is wide open,with about four boys competing forthe position. Ed Cooperrider and NickMelas are at second, Paul Homer hasa hold on shortstop and Bill Lukeyand a kid named Servies round out apartial list of infielders.

Vera Griffin, who is one ofthe four WAVES stationed on theUniversity campus. The initials standfor Storekeeper 3rd Class, the ratingwhich the girls received after a fourmonths course at the Storekeepers’School located at Indiana University.Miss Griffin, herself as refreshing asan ocean breeze, added that she andthe other WAVES here feel that it’sgreat to be in the Navy and that theirjobs are fascinating.
