HE CHICAGO MAROONlol 3, No. 28 Z149 Friday, April 28, 1944 Price Five CentsKrueger, Schwab RequestSenate ReorganizationiJerome Kerwin Asks GreaterRepresentation In ElectionsA petition, advocating^ the reorp:ani-[zation of the Senate with the objectof making it truly representative ofthe university, was circulated amongfaculty members this week by May¬nard C. Krueger and Joseph J.Schwab. Eighty-one signers to thepetition were already on file Monday,but Mr. Krueger was unable to re¬lease complete information on the to¬tal number of signatures as yet.Addressing the petition to their uni¬versity colleagues, Messrs. Schwaband Krueger urged them to sign it ifthey believed the entire faculty has,at present, limited means of expres¬sion and action. They ask that theSenate request the Board of Trusteesto make it representative of the fac¬ulty and elected by it.Kerwin Election PlanA plan for the election feature ofthe Senate Reorganization Petitionhas already formulated by JeromeKerwin, professor of political science.Mr. Kerwin, who is a member of theSenate or “House of Lords” as hecalls it, asks for an election of theSenate by the entire faculty, witheligibility for office based on threeyears employment here and the fran¬chise given to all after a two yearperiod. He suggests that one Senatorrepresent fifteen members of the fac¬ulty which would result in a legisla¬tive body of fifty or sixty members.A three year term for Senators, withone-third of the body retiring everyyear, is also part of his plan. Elec¬tions would be held according to theHare System of Proportional Repre¬sentation, whereby voters cast ballotsin order of their preference and min¬ority groups are guaranteed repre¬sentation.Independent ProjectMr. Kerwin emphasized that hiselection plan is not itself embodied inthe Krueger-Schwab petition. He of¬fers it merely as a suggestion to thesefjentlemen who reported early thisWeek that mechanism for putting theirrequests into effect is still under con¬sideration.Discussing the petition, Mr. Kerwindeclared that he considered this a ma¬jor reform and that a representativebody to speak for the faculty is a nec¬essary innovation.“As a member of the House ofLords,” he exclaimed, “I feel as thoughI can speak with some authority.

Davey, who were theguests of Richard Schreiber, Dukeresident, are reported to have thor¬oughly enjoyed themselves.Another such party is to be held intwo weeks, with girls from one ofthe other dormitories, yet to be an¬nounced. groups according to their numericalprominence.The findings of the poll are as fol¬lows: 1) The great majority of thestudent body do not know what thecontroversy is all about. 2) Those whoentertained opinions unanimously feltthat the controversy caw lead to bene¬ficial results for the University, if thedifferences between the two parties tothe dispute can be reconciled by mu¬tual discussion and arbitration. 3) Thestudents are unanimous in their feel¬ing that absolutely nothing has beendone by the administration or by thefaculty to acquaint the student bcdywith the principles involved. 4) Oftho.se who had formed definite opin¬ions, the majority favor Mr. Hutchinsand his desired reforms, but they donot favor the mechanism he desires toset up to attain his ends. It is felt thatif his reforms are desirable the fac¬ulty will endorse them, but the facultyshould have the deciding power.5) There should be more equitablerepresentation in the Senate.A conspicuous lack of interest inthe controversies was displayed andseems to stem first of all from an ig¬norance of the issues involved andfrom the feelings that fights betweenMr. Hutchins and the Faculty aremore frequent than decisive. Theyhope for concrete action.Controversy,Crane Clarifies Anti-Hutchins MemorialPoint Of View: Fears For Midway's Future■VThe exact issues of the controversybetween President Robert MaynardHutchins and the Faculty of the Uni¬versity of Chicago have yet to beclarified. Last Tuesday Ronald S.Crane head of the Department ofEnglish and leader of the faculty fac¬tion attempted to do so for The Chi¬cago Maroon.Members of the Faculty, accordingto Crane, are afraid. They are afraidof the implications inherent in Presi¬dent Hutchins most recent public ut¬terances and actions. They are afraidbecause they feel that Hutchins’ pe¬culiar and, to them, objectionable con¬ception of a University has been evi¬dent for some time—can be foundvoiced quite clearly in such books asthe recent “Education For Freedom.”“If Hutchins’ doctrines are carriedto their logical conclusion,” saidCrane, “liberal education will breakdown into nothing more than indoc¬trination. All through the Presidents’teachings there is a philosophy whichI cannot describe in any way but as Ronald S. Crane |Sponsor of Faculty Memorial |anti-modern.” ]The controversy with the Facultyhas a long history. It was present. but was not brought to a head. Ac¬cording to Crane, the Faculty chose toset their first line of real dissensionon the occasion of Hutchins’ speechon January 6. It was then that Hutch¬ins’ proposed that Faculty rank beabolished, salaries adjusted on a newbasis, and a inner school established.All the Faulty wants from Hutch¬ins in this respect, according to Crane,is that he first persuades the Facultyof the rightness of his actions beforehe puts them into effect. “It’s notvery likely that we would raise toomany obstacles in his way,” saidCrane, “but its certain that theremust be much more persuading thanthere has been in the past. The Presi¬dent, as a teacher, is an amateur. Itis true that an amateur has certainadvantages, he can see things thatmen in the field cannot. Nevertheless,where the interests of the Universityare involved, the faculty senate musthave the final veto.”Crane questioned Hutchins’ recently(See “Crane,” page 3)Pai$e Two •#»p THE CHICAGO MAROON90 CLO.

Bob Sorenson, president of theclub, said that the program includesan explanation of .the work of theF.B.I., a discussion on groups accusedof being native Fascists in the city,and a lecture to be given by a womanfrom the French underground.1914 New Deal Viewed“Woodrow Wilson and the NewFreedom” was the topic chosen lastMonday by Professor Charles E.

The choir carried itspart very well; but it decidedly lacksexpression. Considering, however,their performance, this is somethingwhich need not be pressed.The Faure Requiem is, of the us¬ually performed Requiems, the leastdramatic and the least contrapuntal.The crowning glory of the MozartRequiem is the rich contrapuntalwriting of the Kyrie and the Quamolim Abrahae. The Verdi Requiem,for all its resemblance to the com¬poser’s operas, realizes^ best of allthe essentially dramatic character ofthe ma.ss.

Hespoke of the social trends which aretaking place in the United States andin the Soviet Union ap examples. Theactual differences are a matter of vo¬cabulary and method, not of the endsdesired.

Such a plan, he believes,will result in a pack of “rhetorical”teachers: men trained in the art ofvoicing knowledge but not in acquir¬ing it.” Teaching is a matter of in¬quiry and research,” said Crane. “Agood teacher is liable to ask questionshe does not know the answer to:a rhetorical teacher will give answershe does not know the questions to.He repeats concepts discovered in thewritings of great minds, but he doesnot know how to proceed in the fieldof individual research and discoveryhimself.” It is this* kind of teacherCrane fears will result from Hutch¬ins’ plan.But what is the basic cause of thefaculty’s case against Hutchins? Itis the fear that the University willbecome the instrument of a singlephilosophy. “In all Hutchins’ utter¬ances,” said Crane, “there is a com¬munistic-socialistic ideology of avague sort.”Faculty members seem to fegr thatHutchins’ reclassification of the facul¬ty, his training of teachers, his firsttentative steps into directed researchwill lead to a University dedicatedto a single philosophy. The first pointin their current memorial, as para¬phrased in last week’s Maroon isthat “the University shall not be com¬mitted to any special philosophy.”faulty members are determined tohave a greater part to say in thedetermination of the policy of theUniversity in the future. “No matterwhat happens,” said Crane, “we aredetermined not to return to the sta¬tus quo.” Med. School ToPublish FirstYear BookFor the first time in its historythe University of Chicago MedicalSchool is publishing a yearbook. Itspurpose is two-fold: to record theactivities of a typical medical classfrom Freshman year through grad¬uation ; and to provide a link betweenthe alumni and the U. of C. MedicalSchool. The yearbook, it is hoped,will be a powerful coordinating in¬strument between students, facultyand alumni of the medical school.Scheduled to come out in Septem¬ber, the book will be staffed by An¬drew Canzontti, as Editor-in-Chief;Mel Newman and Dave Rubinfineas Assistant Editors; and GeorgeNardi as Photography Editor. Assist¬ing Nardi in photography will be PaulWolf and A1 Robertson. The businessaffairs of the annual will be man¬aged by A1 Rider, David Hellyer, andBino Marchello.All phases of the activities in MedSchool will be covered by the annual.Through |)hotographs, short stories,caricatures, and special features, thelife of the University of Chicago med¬ical students will be interestingly de¬picted.

However, it does not reflect too fa¬vorably on these educators to remember thatwhat they now feel is a “blockbuster” of an idea,was once scoffed at as the infantile muttering ofan arch-radical.It is about time that the academic world real¬ize the value of the many experiments in educa¬tion pioneered by the University of Chicago. Wecan also add the humble suggestion that if otheruniversities wish to discover other “blockbust¬ers” they may benefit greatly by reading any ofthe past issues of the University of Chicago“ANNOUNCEMENTS.” In fact, much may belearned by understanding the true nature of thecurrent controversies of the University as a de¬sire to make progress, instead of misinterpretingthe statements of the protagonists and the re¬marks of irresponsibles.The Golden MeanCritics alien to large educational institutionsin general have long sung the old refrain thatsuch centers of learning breed an attitude ofimpersonality between professors and students.These critics contend that large universitiesmust inevitably forfeit the personal interest andwelfare of their students to the greater task offurnishing mass education.To them only the small colleges are capableof accenting personal education. These are thesanctuaries of learning where classes approachthe size of round tables, where the professorsassume a paternal attitude. Here the student’s“confidant” becomes his guardian by day andhis shadow by night.This contrast of educational systems oscil¬lates from one extreme to the other. The studentwho is confounded by impersonality of expansiveinstitutions will likewise shrink from the homeyatmosphere of little colleges. He is bewilderedindeed.But the midpoint in this educational arc iswhere the advantages of a large university arecombined with a deference for the individualstudent. Such is the position of The Universityof Chicago.

These facultymembers counsel students but do not have sur-veilance over them.We hope the acerbity of these critics towarduniversities will be mitigated as other institu¬tions adopt a schedule similar to the one here atThe University embodying personal educationwith general education. This plan was a progres¬sive step several years ago, and now is being em¬ulated by other institutions. Among some unfortunate families,there is a strong desire to shelterfrom the gaze of the community theabnormality with which a child maybe afflicted. Other families are notquite as sensitive and they make pub¬lic the fact that a member is institu¬tionalized because of a mental condi¬tion. Still others' are stupid enoughto allow such pitiful creatures to roamfree and add to the total of the help¬less and criminal. The Polish govern¬ment-in-exile must be placed in thelast category as a free-roaming men¬tal case.The recent dispatch from Londontelling of the sentencing of thirtyJewish deserters from the Polish Ar¬my is an accurate example of the ir¬responsibility and international imbe¬cility of these Polish “statesmen” held•up to public gaze. It is difficult enoughto reconcile anti-Semitism and Negro¬phobia in our own country with theself-proclaimed ideals of our greatDemocracy at war, but there is abso¬lutely no reason to tolerate similarbigotry in a small group of men whoare living on the charity of one nationwithout being the legitimate represen¬tatives of another nation. Whateverpower these Polish diplomats possess,is held merely by courtesy of the gov¬ernments of the United Nations.This same group of men were no¬torious as arch-reactionary national¬ists and eager proponents of Polishanti-Semitism long before the war.Their underlings have continued theirundemocratic philosophies in the Po¬lish army, which also exists by cour¬tesy only. The thirty prisoners’ onlycomplaint was that they were subjectto such mistreatment because oftheir religion, that they were compell¬ed to make the arduous journey toEngland in the hope of being able toenlist in the British army to continuej the fight against the common enemy* under more democratic conditions.Again, diplomatic courtesy interven¬ed, and the unfortunate soldiers wereturned over to the Polish authoritiesI in London. In a sudden burst of gener¬osity, all thirty were offered theirfreedom if they would be willing L)return to the Polish army, but all re¬fused.It is extremely regrettable that thepresent Polish government-in-exiledoes not include among its personnelan internationally known pianist tcwin the popular support of the worldin a fashion similar to the last govern¬ment-in-exile.Bill ErlandsonJazz CocktailsDuring the past month two majordance bands have broken up and oneor two have been in the process ofbeing started. Benny Goodman, aftera rift with his booking agent, M.C.A.decided to call it quits and Alvino theguitarist tossed in the towel because jof the man power shortage. In themeantime, Goodman’s pianist JessStacey and his wife Lee Wiley, whorecently put out a record album ofRogers and Hart show songs had bigi plans in mind of a band of their own.Artie Shaw, with a navy discharge,secretly looked around the west coast jj for men for his new outfit. j LettersFor the past several months theMaroon has been devoting a greatmany columns to discussions of mu¬sical import. The height of flippancyand dilletantism were reached hrm*ever, in the issue of April 7. This iC:is not an isolated example for theseattitudes have long made themselvesfelt in columns allegedly containingmature discussion and criticism.In the two non-reportorial musicalitems in that issue, stupidity, assin-ity, misrepresentation of fact andsloppy thinking are found to the ex¬clusion of all else. “W.W.” all but dis¬misses consideration of a serious at¬tempt at the creation of a work ofart because of lack of concession onthe part of the composer to “tradi¬tional ideas of the development ofthe symphony.” It has nowhere beenestablished, or even maintained, thatthe “traditional ideas of development”have anything to do with the aestheticvalues of music. I doubt, further, that“W.W.” can present or find anywheri'a presentation of these “traditionalideas.” From C. P. E. Bach, throughthe classicists, Beethoven and theRomanticists, and on through thePost-Romanticists, and the “Modern¬ists,” the “.symphony” has had asmany forms—and more—as compos¬ers ... To each of the musical“greats”, “traditional ideas” representonly a point of departure, at best.Each emphasized different elements,abandoning others . . .. . . does “W.W.” believe that thir¬teen lines suffice as even cursorycriticism. Mr. Rodzinski spent morethan sixty-odd minutes with the Shos-takovitch Eighth, and undoubtedlyfound it .slightly more rewarding thandid “W.W.” The fact that “W.W.”did find the time spent to be “largelywasted effort” is a reflection on himrather than on the Symphony. Notthat the Symphony’s merits cannotstand a great deal of di.scussion, butwho is “W.W.” to discuss it? Such adiscussion, let alone an evaluation, re¬quire more background than “W.W.”can muster, I’m sure. Any ar,gument.<involving freedom of the press canbe countered with arguments for therespect and understanding of thatfreedom; and any arguments that“W.W.” may present concerning “notknowing anything about art butknowing what he likes,” brings tomind only the fact that a cow alsofinds itself in that happy situation . . .(signed) Arnola Miller(Ed.

Much has happened tothe plot and characters of “Government Girl” since itsserial days in the Ladies’ Home Journal. Smokey Allard,the Washington white collar girl (played by Olivia deHaviland) has been completely changed from a clever,independent, poised and rather arrogant sophisticate toa slapstick comedienne. She is cute, she is pretty, but sheis thoroughly miscast or misdirected or both. SonnyTufts as Ed Browne, her boss and head of Aircraft,which is investigated by Olivia’s boyfriend, slick JessBarker, is still a production wizard, but puts somethingextra in the part, a sort of dreamy stupidity, which isvery fetching. “Government Girl” is sort of muddled, butfun to watch.Life Lines John Harmon Pag# Rv#Smedley and George“What can I do for you?” asked thehumanitarian as he puffed noisily onhis curved pipe.“Well,” said Smedley. “I just want¬ed to see a humanitarian. Do they allhave brush cuts like that?”“It’s not necessary, but it helps,”said the humanitarian. “No one canget in your hair that way.”This sounded pretty good to boththe boy and George the Goat. Smed¬ley was about to question him furtherwhen the door was flung open.“My goodness,” said Smedley. “Isthis the route to a Turkish bath?”“Oh no, my boy,” said the humani¬tarian. “Those aren’t bathrobes.They’re togas. You see, these men aresenators.” —“Oh,” said Smedley who had al¬ways thought senators were men whowore broad brimmed hats and sub¬marine ties. “And what do theywant?” Smedley Meets A Humanitarian“Oh they want me to publicly de¬clare I’ll join their party. It happensevery day,” explained the humani¬tarian. “They’ll begin in a minute.It’s just like a scene out of Plautus.”Chamber ConcertCloses SuccessfulMandel Series‘Why, Daddy?” The Philharmonic String Quartet,assisted by Margery Mayer, mezzo-so¬prano; flutist Ernest Liegl; and clar¬inettist Robert Lindemann; broughtthe current series of Chamber Con¬certs to a successful close last Fridayevening in Mandel Hall.The work of major interest wasPaul Hindemith’s songcycle, Die jungeMagd: these .\re not show pieces andcontained none of the obvious vocalembellishments; they afforded Mar¬gery Mayer, however, a great oppor¬tunity to display her remarkablerange and rich tonal quality. The en¬semble conducted by Hans Lange,created a skillfully woven background;and from the opening measures of thefirst poem to the final fermata of thesixth, the pensive and dreary moodwas realized. A device that heightenedthe effect, although not included inthe score by Hindemith, was the soundof the distant Mitchell Tower Carillonduring the pause between the firstand second songs.For the Mozart Flute Quartet,which opened the program, all praisebelongs to Mr. Liegl and his MagicFlute, to borrow a phrase from Mo¬zart’s own opera. The listener felt,however, that, if the lucid tone of Mr.Liegl’s flute carried him to etherealheights, Mr. Weicher’s violin broughthim back to earth. In the adagio thepizzicato background sounded more asif one were pulling teeth rather thanplucking strings.Even though in some sections oftheir part of the program, the VerdiQuartet and the Schubert Movement,the Philharmonic Quartet failed toachieve technical fluency, they alwaysmanaged to capture the spirit of theworks.The Verdi Quartet, written betweenAida and the Requiem, although itprovided four stringed instrumentswith plenty to do, proved to be justanother collection of barrel organ dit¬ties.—R. E. George sniffed in a somewhat dis¬gusted manner (for he had little usefor the finer things in life). In fact,he was not half so impressed as Smed¬ley when the senior senator beganspeaking:“We suspect there is somethingsinisterIn a President who tries to bePrime Minister.”There was a look of goatish disgustwhen the chorus added:“Crescat Scientia Vita Excolatur.Conjunge Erudite Nobis Frater!No translation please!We prefer the Latin Wheeze!”Smedley looked for a change in theexpression of the humanitarian, butthere was not a slight difference evenwhen the senator began again:“We have come to seek your aid.Get your robe. Join the picketsparade!We’ll humble Touchie but keephim residentFor what’s a school without aPresident?”George the Goat began to edgre asthe chorus added:“Whatever he says, just answer NO.Frater Ave! Status Quo.”The chorus, after saying this, ad¬vanced toward the humanitarian withpens in one hand and petitions in theother. Just then the followers ofTouchie came trooping through thedoor led by three men bearing a ban¬ner with the letters O-I-I on it andplaying on strange instruments calledRecorders. They too were armed withpens and petitions. Then the senatorsseized one of the arms of the humani¬tarian while the followers of Touchieseized the other. The room was filledwith shouts of “join us, pull togetherboys, come over on our side” whichwere finally topped by the humani¬tarian’s “banana earle.”“Goodness,” said Smedley as he andGeorge escaped between the legs of afat senator, “That’s a terrible thingto do a humanitarian.”(Next week: Smedley Visits aLibrary)Petition . . .(Continued from page 1)use these methods in the university?”Another member oi' the Senate, op¬posed to the petition, is quoted as say¬ing, “I don’t understand how a bodyof 165 people, who have risen fromthe ranks, could fail to be representa¬tive of the entire university.”Besides Mr. Kerwin, two other fullprofessors, W. Bartky and A. E. Hay-don, are listed among the 81 originalsigners of the petition.Page Six THE CHICAGO MAROONMaroon Sportmen Win In Tennis, Lose InTrack, Tie In Baseball During Crowded WeekBaseball . . .Coming up from behind in the ninthinning, the Maroon baseball teamscored three runs to tie the.
