IMe MAHON AT U of OErpi Films ToMidway-GreatSays BentonThe acquisition of Erpi ClassroomFilms from the Western ElectricCompany was announced last week byVice President William A. Benton,chairman of the Board of the Ency¬clopedia Britannica.Organized in 1929, Erpi has formany years dominated the field ofclassroom films. Now, in its new af¬filiation with the Encyclopedia Britan¬nica and indirectly, the University ofChicago, Vice President Benton haspredicted a wide expansion in the useof classroom films in this country. Al¬though Erpi will retain the same pol¬icy and personnel, the company will,under its new ownership, branch outafter the war into the fields vacatedby the tremendous present programof Army and Navy educational films.Said Benton: “The purchase of Er¬pi Films is a natural and logical phaseof the extension of Britannica as aneducational organization allied to theUniversity. The University recogniz¬ed the importance of educationalsound films -in 1932 by-entering intocontract with Erpi Films, and ap¬proximately forty films have sincebeen made in collaboration with mem¬bers of the faculty. This new relation¬ship will enable the University to useits resources and knowledge to devel¬op an educational tool which expandsthe range of material available tothe teacher as no other device cando.”The University lias in the past madeseveral experiments in radio educa¬tion. The purchase of Erpi Films isChicago’s first venture along the thesame line in motion pictures, thoughseveral members of the Chicago facul¬ty have assisted in the preparation ofthese films. SPB Tells PlansFor Mid-FebruaryInformal DanceWashington Prom is definitely can¬celled jjor the duration, but the Stu¬dent Publicity Board made plans fora substitute at its first meeting of theyear, last Tuesday afternoon.The customary mid-February datewill be filled by an all-campus infor¬mal, dance in Ida Noyes Hall whichwill serve a dual purpose. It will in¬troduce a group of high school stu¬dents from the Chicago area to thesocial life of the University, thus dis¬pelling the old impression that this isa school lacking undergraduate ac¬tivities, and will fill an important gapin the winter quarter social program.Plans of the committee are onlytentative, and will be presented to theDean’s office on Monday. They in¬clude, as well as the dance, a receptionor “punch bowl” in the Ida Noyes li¬brary for the prospective students be¬fore the campus arrives. This wouldorient the visitors and introducethem to the members of the PublicityBoard.Bob Dille, chairman of the Board,has announced a second meetingwhich will be held Tuesday after-noons in Room A, Ida Noyes. At thismeeting the S.P.B. will discuss thecomments of the Dean’s office on itsplans. It will also begin to work outa program of teas, dances and varietyshows, many of which will be designedto appeal especially to students en¬tering the eleventh and twelfth years,the first two years of the College.Because of the wide scope of itsprogram the Board opens its member¬ship to all students interested insports, dramatics, and any other ac¬tivity which can be coordinated withthe work of the S.P.B.

This fact was released late last night to the MAROON by the Presi¬dent’s office.Professor McMahon will enter the faculty of the College of the University as assoc¬iate professor of philosophy. It was also announced that Eugene Northrup of Hotchkiss,Fritz Marti of the University of Maryland, Thomas Hall of Laurenceville, William O’Mearaof Fordham and Millard Binyan of the Illinois Institute of Technology will enter the Uni¬versity at the same time as McMahon.“ Frank McMahon has held the national spotlight for the pastmonths, ever since he was forced to resign form the faculty ofVFIt Co Notre Dame. At that time President O’Donnel of Notre Dame re¬fused to give any adequate explanation for the removal. It was uni¬versally recognized, however, that it was McMahon^s forthrightdenunciations of the Fascist and isolationist elements within thiscountry and his outstanding record as an eloquent interventionist’before the war that forced his resignation. Most immediate causefor his eviction was, probably, his declaration that General Fran¬cisco, Catholic or not, was a Fascist dictator and puppet and shouldbe dealt with by the State department as such.Whatever the reason, McMahon wasXmas PageantSunday, MondayThe sixteenth annual presentationof the Christmas Pageant in Rocke¬feller Memorial Chapel Sunday andMonday evenings at 7:30 is entitled“A Mystery for Christmas”.

Berger,who was slated to head the Committeeduring the entire year, has found thatthe accelerated program of the medicalschool leaves little time for extra-cur¬ricular activities.Bayard has served on the Orienta¬tion Committee since his entrance inthe University three years ago. He isa junior, pre-medical student, a mem¬ber of Owl and Serpent, and Psi Up-silon fraternity.Orientation Committee has alreadyplanned a program for students en¬tering in the winter quarter and mid¬year classes on February 3. A one dayprogram of meetings, lectures, andcampus tours will be held on February1 for an unusually large number ofstudents. Although this is a shorterorientation period than has prevailedfor the mid-year classes before, it willbe more extensive.No counselors will be appointed forthe entering men, because of theshortage of upperclassmen on theCommittee.The MAROON staff announcesthat this will be the last issue ofthe autumn quarter.

When the gargantuan actorlimped to the front of the stage lastweek the audience expected a rhetor¬ical tirade in the best Welles radiostyle. What it got was a mixture ofexhibitionism and sincerity, one of rawself-exploitation and genuine enthu¬siasm. Welles did not make a formalspeech but conducted his meeting inforum style. Speaking without notes,he succeeded, through showmanship,in stamping the audience with the im¬print of his own personality.

The Universityof Chicago is renown for scholastic excellenceand liberal ideals. Last night, when PresidentHutchins announced the addition of Francis Mc¬Mahon to this university, that reputation wentup ten notches in the eyes of the entire nation.The faculty of this University has long heldthe distinction, not only of scholastic excellence,but of a steadfast idealism they have never beenafraid to express. Mr. McMahon possesses thosequalities. It was because of his reputation and ac¬tivity as a liberal and anti-fascist that he wasforced to leave the University of Notre Dame.And it is because of these attributes, togetherwith his undoubted professorial ability, that hehas been asked to join this University's faculty.Frank McMahon has, for many years, been aleader, not only among the liberals of this coun¬try, but of that wide group of Roman Catholicswho have stood, in the face of some of their ownBishops, against the Fascist despotisms of Ger¬many, Italy, and Spain. Perhaps, if his work hadnot been so effective, McMahon might still beholding down his job at South Bend. That wasnot, however, the case. The University of NotreDame, observing his growing reputation and out¬spokenness, was afraid. Father O'Donnel com¬plained that McMahon's views ‘might be inter¬preted as those of the University." He demandedthat McMahon be forced to submit all his speech¬es to administrative inspection before they couldbe given. McMahon resigned.If the educational system of this country isfounded on anything, it is the right of teachers tospeak their own views and not those held bywhatever authorities they may happen to beworking for. Notre Dame, although in all likeli¬hood unconsciously, violated that fundamentalpremise. The University of Chicago, through itsaction last night, has maintained the doctrine offreedom of speech, not only for newspapers andpoliticians, but for teachers as well.This Week on CampusDecember 10, Friday—Composers* Concert, Mandel Hall, 8:00 p.m.University Chamber Orchestra, Hans Lange con¬ductor.Last issue of Maroon until January 7.Coke and snack bars closed winter quarter.December 11, Saturday—Calvert Club Banquet at St. Thomas the ApostleSchool, 5467 So.

He was scheduled to maketwo more in Detroit the next day.Having given up the greater part ofhis theatrical career, Welles told hisaudience he was touring the countrytrying to convert the ideals of theFree World Committee, “political andeconomic democracy” into a popularmovement. He spoke of organizing acollegiate youth movement of thesame dimensions of those of Chinaand Central Europe. The audience,which had come primarily to see Or¬son Welles and, possibly, his wife,wound up the evening ready to followbrother Orson in a stirring renditionof “Onward Christian Soldiers”.I Welles described his work in theFree World Committee as two fold.That of getting “to the people whodon’t care and the people who carebut are inclined to think the causealready lost.”“We want to reorganize,” saidWelles, “the youth groups of thiscountry. We don’t want any melodra¬matic secret society but rather peoplewho are willing to do what they canin their own community. Every mem¬ber of the Free World Committeemust be an active member.”Orson Welles did not, however, con¬fine himself to the purposes of his or¬ganization. He declared himself readyand willing to answer any questionsthe audience cared to put to him. Inthe course of the evening he covereda tremendously large field.Of American Fascism he said: “Thefoundation of fascism is disunity andI’ve never seen such vicious disunitysince the war’s commencement as thatwhich exists right now. It is possiblein this very city to read a newspaperwhich goes out of its way to slanderour allies, racial groups and labor un¬ions. I see in our present administra¬tion the collapse of the liberals andthe ascension of the right wing.Though the American people will nev¬er consciously submit to Fascism theycan be fooled. They will fight and fightto the death when their liberty is tak¬en: they may be fooled but they willfight.”Of the world after the war: “Wemust either give the soldiers jobs orgive them hate. The industrialists ofthis country will unions, Jews, Ne¬groes, even capital itself to hate.”Welles came to the campus with theintention of laying a foundation forthe Free World Committee on thecampus.^ Dr. Potters ReportsPreventive For TuberculosisSuccessful Trys With VaccineRecent research conducted at theUniversity has increased the long hop¬ed for possibility that tuberculosismay be prevented by vaccination.Reported on by Dr. Truman SquirePotter of the University of ChicagoLaboratory of Preventive Medicine,the new method makes use of theprinciple that the tubercle bacillusmay be subdued by interference withits own respiration. In other wordstuberculosis may be prevented by avaccine, or antigen, of bacilli com¬pletely asphyxiated through lack ofoxygen. The bacteria are killed bysuffocation.In his latest experiment Dr. Potterattempted to immunize rabbits againsttuberculosis through the asphyxiatedbacterial vaccine. Immunity was thentested through intravenous inocula¬tion with large doses of virulent ba¬cilli.Thirty-three rabbits were given the vaccine, while thirty-three others, notimmunized, were used for controlsAll rabbits were then subjected to thetubercle bacilli. At the end of the ex¬periment only four of the immunizedrabbits showed minimal lesions, whiletwenty-five of the non-immunizedgroup, including three that died,showed frequntly severe lesions.Dr. Potter has been associated withthe University of Chicago since 1916,when he entered as an undergraduate.He was graduated from medicalschool in 1926 and was appointed amember of the faculty in 1929, in theDivision of Biological Sciences. Thedoctor, whose status is research as¬sociate in preventive medicine, hasbeen publishing results of his researchon the tubercle bacillus since 1931. Hehas achieved considerable supportfrom the Seymore Coman FellowshipFund and the Tuberculosis Institute ofChicago. Navy Men WinAgain 32-26Last Tuesday evening in Ida Noyesgym, a high-powered Navy AerologyOfficers cage squad scored an unim¬pressive victory over the Army Meteo¬rology officers. The final score wasNavy 32, Army 26.Showing none of the sparkle thatdistinguished them in their tilt withthe Radio and Signal School a weekbefore, the Navy men managed tohold their own against a slow-start¬ing Army five.For two quarters the Navy men out¬played their opponents and led all theway, the first quarter score showingNavy 10, Army 0; the half breakingat Navy 19, Army 9. In the third quar¬ter the Aerology officers lost controland watched their opponents shoot towithin three points of tieing the score.At that point, unable to maintain thepace, the cadets yielded to a rallyingNavy quintet and trailed at the endof the third quarter, 27 to 20. In thefinal period the Navy made five points,while Army rolled up six.High point scorers were Lancaster,who looped eight for the Navy, andIrons who tossed in six for the Meteo¬rologists.
