THE CHICAGO MAROONVol. 3^ No. 32 Z-149 " Friday, June 2, 1944 Price Five CentsAN EDITORIALTo Our Readers:Last week, we advertised a Senate exposestory which was to appear in the pages of TheChicago Maroon, but we did not publish lastweek. There is a Senate expose. The ChicagoMaroon is in a position to produce it, but we arenot going to. However, we feel that we owe ourreaders an explanation.We have in our possession all the documentsconnected with the current controversy betweenthe President’s Office and the Senate. We haveother .factual information. Moreover, we believedthat all this documented information should beplaced at the disposal of the 600 faculty memberswho are not in the Senate or represented in anyway in the Senate. We also believed this infor¬mation should be made available to the studentsof the University in keeping with our responsi¬bility 'to supply our readers with complete andaccurate news coverage on vital University mat¬ters.However, certain unscrupulous people learnedof our plans to publish these documents. Theyimmediately informed various members of theBoard of Trustees that the President's Officeivas 7'esponsible for releasing the confidentialdocuments to us and was instigating its publi¬cation.This is a base falsehood, and in completekeeping with the sort of tactics which have beenused on campus in recent weeks. We secured allour material through our own sources, inde¬pendent of any collusion from anybody even re¬motely connected with the administrative offices. However, this hysterical rumor put a differ¬ent complexion on the situation. We had to con¬sider the undesirable effect publication wouldhave on the Board of Trustees in their delibera¬tions, we had to consider the gravity and im¬portance of the situation apart from those de¬liberations, we had to consider the implication ofinnocent people, and we concluded that whateverbenefits might be gained by our revealing thesedocuments at the present time would be morethan offset by harm done to the University.Hence our decision not to publish these docu¬ments. As for not publishing at all, that wascaused by technical difficulties with our printer.This was an independent decision free fromany pressure or threats of expulsion or supres-sion. Since I have been associated with The Chi¬cago Maroon, neither the Dean's Office nor anyother agency on campus has ever sought to ex¬ercise any powers of censorship on our paper.However, we still possess these documents. Atsome time in the future, perhaps, when the bestinterests of the University can be served, we willpublish this confidential material in the pages ofThe Chicago Maroon. At any rate, we pay morethan lip-service to the well-being of the Univer¬sity, which is more than some people can attestto.We want to thank all our supporters andreaders for their kind consideration and fore-bearance in judging our acts by the true lightin which they were committed.(Signed) Frederick I. GottesmanEditor-in-chief.'Maroon' To ContinueThroughout SummerDon't Hiss SmedleyDiscussed ByRound TableContinuing the discussion of the re¬lations between the Vatican and Mos¬cow begun two weeks ago in The Chi¬cago Maroon, Professor Francis E.McMahon, prominent Catholic mem¬ber of the faculty of the Universityof Chicago, was guest speaker on theUniversity of Chicago Round Tablelast Sunday.Waldemar Gurian, Professor of Po¬litical Science at Notre Dame, Win¬field Garrison, Professor Emeritus ofChurch History, and George Bobrin-skoy. Professor of Sanskrit and Rus¬sian Languages, both of the Univer¬sity of Chicago, also expressed theirviews concerning Russia and the Vat¬ican attitude toward Communism inreference ot the effects upon Amer¬ican Catholics.Professor McMahon, indirectlymaintaining his stand in defense ofFather Orlemanski, the Polish Priestand his controversial trip to Moscow,said, “By exaggerating the currentgrievances and differences in the po-litcal and religious spheres, we mayvery well succeed in driving Russiaback into her old ways of religiouspersecution instead of helping to bringreal religious liberty in Russia.”Professor Garrison and ProfessorBobrinskoy expijessed somewhat thesame viewpoint. The former in his be¬lief that “. . . the gesture (Orleman-ski’s trip) will be highly appreciatedby Catholics throughout the world,”and the latter, when he called thetrip^'another important link in Sta¬lin’s policy of creating good will andgood feeling among all the populacesof western and eastern Europe.”Expressing hope of some kind ofagreement between Moscow and theVatican, McMahon concluded the dis¬cussion by stating, “I am very op¬timistic about the religious future inRussia. Policies of religious freedomcannot be rushed through overnight,but the evolution of events points thatway.The Orientation Committee an¬nounces that, due to re-organization^ and a subsequent late start, they willbe unable to announce the names ofthe new’counsellors this quarter. TheCounsellors will be chosen at the be¬ginning, of the summer quarter, and Scholarship Awarded ToM. Kerwin, High Man AtMeteorology GraduationPvt. Michel W. Kerwin of OakPark, highest in the class of 108 pre¬meteorologists graduated Saturday,May 20 from the University of Chica¬go Institute of Meteorology, wasgranted a $300 post-war scholarshipto the University.The scholarship was awarded atcommencement exercises held in Rock¬efeller Memorial Chapel, with ErnestC. Colwell, Vice-President of the Uni¬versity, presenting certificates ofproficiency to the graduates. Speakersincluded Walter Bartky, Dean of Stu¬dents in the Division of the PhysicalSciences, and Col. John G. Salzman,District Supervisor for the Air ForcesMaterial Command.None of the graduates of this sec¬ond and last class of AAF pre-me¬teorologists trained by the Universityare to go into advanced Meteorology,as the Army has discontinued the pro¬gram. The majority of trainees, how¬ever, will be sent to Canada to take aspecial radar course.Athletic Association HoldsAnnual Alumnae BanquetJune 8, 6 p.m. is the date^ setfor the annual alumnae banquet givenby the Women’s Athletic Association,more familiarly known as the W.A.A.This year the banquet is being held inthe Cloisters at Ida Noyes in the formof a buffet supper, and afterwardsawards for outstanding athletic abil¬ity will be presented, and entertain¬ment will be offered. Faculty, students,employees, and anyone interested inathletics are invited. Tickets are $1.00,and may be secured at the Ida Noyesoffice. This summer, for the first time inits history, or in the history of its.predecessors, The Chicago Maroon willcontinue publication on its regularschedule throughout the summerquarter. After suspending publicationnext week on account of comprehen-sives, the paper will appear everyFriday throughout the quarter. Thisunprecedented action will be taken be¬cause a large number of students nowin residence will remain on campus,there will be an entering class of sev¬eral hundred, and there will be a largenumber of summer school students.The subscription rates for the sum¬mer quarter will be fifty cents fortwelve issues obtained on campus andsixty-five cents for twelve copies byHonor Students GetNeff, Norton PrizesThe Theodore Lee Neff Prize pre¬sented annually for excellence in thestudy of French language and litera¬ture has been given this year to Dor¬othy Lazarus, a first-year student inthe Division of the Humanities, ac¬cording to an announcement by Deanof Students A. J. Brumbaugh. Theprize, which amounts to forty dollars,was awarded upon the recommenda¬tion of the Department of RomanceLanguages.Dean Brumbaugh has also announc¬ed the award of the twenty-five dollarElizabeth R.

The com¬bined group, under the direction ofHans Lange, began the evening witha short rehearsal of some of the workspresented at their concerts this sea¬son. She remainder of the evening wasplanned by the orchestra’s ‘factotum’,Arpad Elo, who had arranged a con¬ducting contest, a lung-power contest(on the baritone saxophone), refresh¬ments, and dancing.Judges for the conducting contestincluded Messrs. Lange, H. V. Talley,and Clarke Kessler, who awarded abaton to James Thompson, first prizewinner, and a book on conducting anda cigar to the runners-up.Guests for the evening included Mr.and Mrs. Lange, John Weioher, Chi- 116 StudentsWin EntranceScholarshipsScholarships valued at $100,000were awarded recently to 116 stu¬dents throughout the nation. Thescholarships, covering from one tofour years in the College of the Uni¬versity of Chicago, were awarded onthe basis of aptitude tests given lastmonth to 500 Chicagoans and to stu¬dents in 123 other cities.Forty-five of the scholarships weregranted to students completing theirsophomore year of high school, withthe rest being distributed among stu¬dents eligible for the second and thirdyears of the College. Youngest of thewinners is 13-year old David D. Mooreof Chicago, a sophomore at MorganPark High School, who received a$1200 award.A 17-year-old inventor, Joseph FordBennett of Toledo, Ohio, received a$1,000 Gridley scholarship.

Corrof Milwaukee, Wis., is founder andco-production manager of a companyhandling war contracts in electricalwork. Corr, recipient of a $300 schol¬arship, will be eligible to enter thethird year of the College.In keeping with the Chicago plan,these scholarship awards were madeon the basis of the aptitudes of thestudents, and not what mass of unre¬lated facts they had succeeded inmemorizing.iVine Faculty MenNamed Among 1000Top' U,S. ScientistsAmerican Men of Science, the au¬thoritative Who’s Who in the scientificfield, this year designated nine pro¬fessors of the University “starred menof science,” bringing the number ofmembers of the faculty thus honoredto seventy-six. Naming a scientist tothis group places him with the topone thousand scientists in the country.Dr. Oswald H. Robertson, Profes¬sor of Medicine, was starred as thediscoverer of certain vapors useful inkilling air-borne bacteria. He is nowworking with the vapors as a meansfor preventing acute respiratory in¬fection in the armed forces.Another of those starred is WiltonM. Krogman, Professor of Anthropol¬ogy, who is internationally known forhis interpretation of the racial historyof the Near East and for his researchinto the physical growth and develop¬ment of the school-age child. Dr. Krog¬man was recently made research as¬sociate in physical anthropology forthe Chicago Natural History Museum.Other members of the faculty hon¬ored are: Carey Croneis and WilliamC. Crumbein, Professors of Geology;William Bloom, Chairman of the De¬partment of Anatomy; Warren C.Johnson, Professor of Chemistry; Dr.Franklin C.

Every literate Amer¬ican found something to say about it,but the two outstanding works werePaine’s Common Sense and Frankin’ssatirical articles. The Mexican Waronly produced Lowell’s First BigelowPapers.The Civil War came at a time whenmost of the great American writerswere active and, among them, Haw¬thorne was the only one to stay neutral. The best-known work of this period is Uncle Tom's Cabin, which has,and probably continues to survivemuch better works. Nothing muchwas produced before World War Iand II but Englislv writers were veryactive.The second period of the Revolu¬tionary War gave us Paine’s PresentCrisis. Probably the greatest warpoetry. Whitman’s Drumtaps, Mem¬ories of President Lincoln, and MyBlie Ontario Shore, was writtenabout and during the Civil War. Theystand so far above the rest becausethey do not share its exaggeration,sentimentality, and unsubtlety, andbecause they represent some of Whit¬man’s finest work. The Civil War alsodeveloped war humorists like Petrole¬um V. Nasby and Artemus Ward, whohad no precedent.In 1898 war correspondents likeRichard Harding Davis and StephenCrane rose to their full importance.Most of what was written during the* World War was so sentimental thatit was bound to seem distasteful afterthe war, when the emotions subsidedThe Revolutionary and the CiviWar have provided the backgrouiKfor many books. At first, little waswritten about the Revolution, but in1820 Cooper’s The Spy started theflow which continues to our day.The Civil War has been used evenmore often.

You can go in,” saidMr. Bean Gee. “It’s all right, Mac.”“O.K.” said the man called Mac.“You ain’t a reporter from that col¬lege paper, are you?”“Oh, no,” said Smedle''.“Well, we’ve had trouble withthem.”“You bet,” piped up a janitor. “Icaught one in the projection booth.”“You did?” asked the Secretary. “Icaught one trying to crawl throughthe slot of the projection booth.”“Was he a pretty good looking fel¬low with a funny haircut?” asked thejanitor.“I don’t know,” said the Secretary.“When I saw him he was caught headhrst in the slot and I pulled him out.I didn’t get a good look at his face.” “He told me he was in here tostudy,” said the janitor.“Told me the same thing. And thensaid he didn’t care if the Senate diemeet here. They wouldn’t bother himwhile he was studying. What nerve!”said the Secretary.“Well they’re out now,” said Mac,the plainclothesman. And I’ve search¬ed the joint for microphones and dic¬taphones.” He turned to George. “Soyou’re the President’s goat, eh? Well,I hope they get you soon. I’m on dutyhere to keep order and, although I gettime and a half for listening to theseguys speak, it ain’t worth it.”Just then the members began filingin, helping each other to their seats.The President came in and sat downfront. He stared somewhat strangelyat Smedley and George, and then turn¬ed about and looked defiantly at theSenators. Several of them suddenlyremembered previous engagementsand left. The meeting then began.Through the smoke, Smedley saw aman begin to read the minutes of theprevious meeting. The members shift¬ed somewhat nervously in their seats.When the minutes were finished,they were hastily approved, and thenthey set to the task at hand. Georgeedged nervously as several of thetogaed senators looked hungrily athim. Just then a small, round man be¬gan reading from a six page paper,“The Senate of the University ofChicago is moved to deep concern forthe well-being of the University, andespecially the maintenance of itsGIRLS!Have You Seen OurSMART NEW SUMMER STYLESRadiant BlousesCool Summer ShortsCasual SkirtsLight Weight BagsThe Captivating Colors and Floral Designs AreA Spring Tonic to Your WardrobeCome In And Look Them OverTHE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGOBOOK STORE5802 Ellis Avenue character as a free institution ofhigher learning, by various recentacts and declarations of the President,notably his address on January 12,1944, at the Faculty-Trustee dinner,and his subsequent statements of hisviews to individual members of thefaculty.”The President turned to Smedley.“He should have made the first sen¬tence shorter. Too long and hard tofollow.”“Why so he should have,” saidSmedley. After reading through sixpages of secret material that had al¬ready been published in the collegepaper, the man sat down.Just then another man arose, “I ob¬ject to having my name on there!”he shouted. “They handed me thiswhen I was delivering a baby. I signedit to get them out of the way. I wantmy name off there.”“I object,” said the little rotind man.“This is a free country, isn’t it?”shouted the objecting Doctor-Senator.“I move that we take a vote of confi¬dence in the President.”Then pandemonium broke loose.Shouts, catcalls, screams of rageabusive language filled the air of theaugust chamber.“Goodness,” murmured Smedley, ashe covered George’s ears with hishands.The little round man saw danger inthis and began to jump about nervous¬ly, first on one foot and then the oth¬er. “I move that we include in my me¬morial,” he said between jumps, “thatthe approval of this criticism of thePresident should not be interpretedas a lack of confidence in his leader¬ship.” He then stopped hopping andsat down. Just then another memberarose and seconded the motion.Smedley tuimed to George. “Well,as the President’s goat that puts youin a funny position. They kick thedickens out of you but then add theydon’t want to hurt you.”The toga-clad little round man wasagain on his feet. Between hops, heshoited, “I move we refer this to theBoard of Trusties.”The secretary for the Secretarythen passed out the ballots. Smedleynoticed the little round man who hadread the six pages edge nervously inhis seat. Then he got up and ran forthe door. Smedley and George follow¬ed him closely. They crashed throughthe reporters and then ran downstairs.George, seeing the clothes of the Sena¬tor, hesitated to follow him.“It’s all right,” said Smedley. “He’sa man. All Senators wear thoseskirts.” They went inside, followed bythe reporters; but the man paid no at¬tention to them.When they returned to the meeting.See Smedley . . . Page 5 Documentary Films FeatureModemArt, ^KameradschafFP«9» ThrMThe Documentary Film Group pre¬sented a series of short subjects con¬cerning art in modern films last Tues¬day evening. The first of the groupwas a Walt Disney production, “Southof the Border”, demonstrating themanner in which the famous cartoonproducer and his troupe traveledthrough South America sketching andstudying the people and surroundings.This film was followed by severalshorts showing novel ways that moviesare being handled with trick photog¬raphy, animation, etc. An artist namedMcClaren has innovated a method fordrawing directly on the film, whichhas been used in ingenious patrioticdisplays sponsored by the CanadianFilm Board.A newsreel of Hitler reviewing histroops was shown, with trick workmaking it seem as if the soldiers weredoing the very British LambethWalk. A puppetoon and a few ab¬stract reels were the concluding fea¬tures of the display.The next Film Group presentationwill be a Japanese film with Englishtitles. . . • B.R.'Among propaganda pictures goodones are even rarer than among othertypes. “Kameradschaft,” presented bythe Documentary Film Group May 23,is an interesting picture. Its mainfault is a general confusion. The pic¬ture was, in large part filmed under¬ground, in realistic darkness. Al¬though I do not like those Hollywoodoperas in which darkened scenes aresuddenly and unexplainably illuminat¬ed to show the lovely limbs of BettyGrable, I found it most annoying notto be able to tell who the characterwas, much less whether he was dead,injured, or in the grip of some vio¬lent emotion. Since it is ratherimportant to be able to tell whois French and who is German,a great deal is lost that way. Themain part of the picture has littledialogue, which may be just as well.To add realism the characters speakin their own languages; and, whateveradvantage may have been derivedfrom this, was more than compensatedfor by the fact that only the most ex¬pert linguist failed to have his attention diverted from the action. Thiswas of little importance in this par¬ticular presentation; since at timesthe sound was so bad that, far fromunderstanding what was said, it washard to decide which language wast)eing used. Seldom have I seen Eng¬lish titles used more destructively.All this criticism seems to indicatethat the picture was bad; but, quite tothe contrary, only the fact that it fellso very short of what it was tryingto achieve makes its mistakes so ob¬vious. It had some of the finest pho¬tography I have ever seen; and con¬trary to most conscious “Art”, itblended into the action.

Inthe mob scenes, which are handledexpertly, the crowd is the unit, notthe background for the main charac¬ter and each member is true to type.The theme, that workers have onlytwo enemies, “Gas and War,” is re¬vealed in a speech at the very end. Itwould be interesting to know just howmuch of a hand the German Propa¬ganda Bureau had in its making. Thepicture, of course, came at a timewhen many Germans had just recentlyleft the Marxist fold, and it is possi¬ble that they were trying to stressthe socialist side of National-Social¬ism. All in all the picture is wellworth seeing, not only because its ac¬tion is absorbing, but because tecli-nically and politically its implicationsare important. . . .

KruegerThis little volume gives to the pub¬ic four lectures which Mr. Merriamgave at Indiana University last year.The first lecture gives its title to thebook. The second is a treatment ofsovereignty, once the queen of theoreti¬cal discussions, now neglected by gen¬eral consent. The last two i lecturesdeal with recent changes in the mean¬ing of organization, with particularreference to democratic society.It seems to me that political scien¬tists generally have concerned them¬selves too exclusively with the struc¬ture and function of the state. Theyhave studied the political process inmunicipal and state and national governmental fields, and more recently inthe field ..of international relations.When they became aware of the pol¬itics of labor, industry, public util¬ities, .agriculture, ef cetera, theystudied these elements as “pressuregroups,” that is,„as^, agencies participating in and influencing the actionsof governments.'^s,,We have become generally awarethat there is .“politics” (in its vulgarmeaning) in" the NAM, the .UAWMontgomery Ward, the University ofChicago.! Now comes Mr. Merriamwho* insists that these are govern¬ments—private governments; and.that the. distinctions between publicandi private government are usuallyexaggerated. As one who has had-dif¬ficulty learning whether he was jailedby public or private government in aPennsylvania coal and iron town, Iapplaud this formulation.-• V .:''A ' .

The French 106 class has been clamoringto be allowed to meet on the C-bench; today Mr. Row¬land answered the plea with, “Yes...and you can getlots of red chalk and do your dictees on the sidewalk.”Box Officeer houses as well. There was a time when they could get Smithaway with this attitude, but not anymore. At the pres-' — ^—ent time every fraternity on campus is at the mercy ofthe University. The College, as it was instituted lastyear, and drawing as it does from the last two years ofhigh-school, can well be the death knell of the Greeksif the University so desires it. The Dean, of coarse, couldnever allow the students in the first two years to joinfraternities and the “graduate” students who have threeyears' work on their Master’s Degree to face will havelittle time for extra-curricular activities. In short, ac¬tive fraternity support, unless the various alumni assume a little of the responsibility, will have to comefrom the last two years of the College. This means thatthe fraternities will be forced to do in two years whatused to be a full four year job.But this is only one horn of the Greek dilemma. Sincethe University has started the house system, they haveentered into competition with fraternities. These houseshave come to be more than just dormitories and they arenot limited to only the first half of the college. In thepast, the various fraternity houses had only each otheras rivals; they now must tilt against the University it¬self.The obvious answer to the problem seems to be jointhouse action through Inter-Fratemity Council, but I cansee few sparks of hope there. The council unfortunatelyappears to be interested in the immediate rather thanthe remote causes of their unpleasant situation. It willdoubtless consider this article an attack upon the wholefraternity system, which I insist it is not, but rather anexamination of the root of the system's current troubles.I am not attempting to offer a solution, but believethat significant action can be taken only of the entirescope of the problem is apparent both in the short andlong run perspectives. I do not think that the Inter-Fra¬temity Council is going to accomplish anything con¬structive by merely extolling the virtues and merits offraternities to their critics and ignoring their defects.This attitude grows increasingly silly as the new Collegeplan gains momentum because this very plan throws thedefects of the fraternity system (as currently practicedon this campus) into sharper focus.If the national organizations of many of the houseswere more fully co^izant of the difficulties under whichtheir chapters were functioning here. I'm sure many ofthem would themselves advocate removal of those chap¬ters from the campus.Well, there it is. The very grim future of the fra¬ternities lies in their own hands, which are not too strongat the moment. Personally, 1 should hate to see fratemities leave; but, if they remain unadapted to the presentCollege “set-up,” I believe it would be better to havethem leave of their own volition riither than suffer theindignity of being asked to leave by the University.Wyvem askes a slight retraction on the Inter-ClubSing story which appeared in the last column...Thevoice trainer they hired was not a professional but oneof tlTe graduate students who had had amateur experiencein the proper grouping of voices...D.S.

It used to be a simple storyabout forty nasty thieves who werefoiled, boiled in their own oil by aclever slave girl owned by one Ali• Baba. In the gorgeous technicolor» movie the thieves are forty charming^ Robin Hoods who haunt Merrie Bag-dhad, robbing the undeserving richand considerately showering gold on the underprivilegedpoor. They are even more concerned with running theevil Mongols out of the City and setting up their lead¬er, Ali Baba (Jon Hall), on the throne of Baghdad. Nat¬urally he is the REAL caliph. Maria Montez has thefeminine led, but our luscious Maria is no slave girl.She has been elevated to the rank of Lady Amara. TheMontez trips around ice-cream cone-colored palaces infilmy pink things, snarls at the Mongol Khan in an un¬identifiable accent, changes her clothes frequently andstars in the two hit scenes of the picture, (1) a sensation¬al bubble bath and (2) playing peekaboo in the bull-rushes of a woodland pond with Jon Hall, but somehownot looking quite as biblical as Moses.Skipping through most of whatever plot there is, thefinal scene commences as hundreds of pantalooned ex¬tras draw their scimitars and rush the Khan’s palace.Of course. It is inevitble. From there the ending is ob¬vious.One of the most delightful things about these tech¬nicolor costume piece movies is that nobody is requiredto act. Therefore nobody does. The script may be allbotched up, the dialogue a mess, but pantaloons in tech¬nicolor will save the day.. .perhaps. If a cinema fanis not too discriminating, it will.♦ * * William Wamhaugh Pege FiveBACH TO BAXThere has come an inquiry from a j ment, Jupiter, The Bringer of Jollity,gentle reader, asking what can be had makes a gay conclusion. The choiceof modern music on records thatworth having. The answer to that ineludes everything but the kitchen sink—and that could be had in Victor’;recording of Schonberg’s Gurre-Lied~er, no longer available. To start withAmericans, there are Roy HarrisSymphony No. S and Howard Hanson’s Romantic Symphony. The Harris Symphony is a bit austere, somewhat cerebral, and rather acid: Hanson’s Romantic Symphony is lush, sentimental; a sort of latter-day Rachmaninoff Second Symphony.Of English works there are two re¬cent recordings, both of which woulcprovide a lift for jaded musical appetites. Gustav Holst’s The Planets,Suite has had the first four movementsrecorded in a version by Sir ErnestMacMillan and the Toronto Symphony,recently released by Victor. The workis good program music: the first move¬ment, Mars, The Bringer of War, hasone of the loudest climaxes evercaught on records; the fourth move-UP IN ARMS ... is mad, wonderful, amazing. It isan uproarious, sure-fire musical comedy about a hypo¬chondriac elevator boy in a hospital who is drafted.Danny Kaye, the elevator boy, who carries his tonicsand pills in a little suitcase everywhere he goes is a hi¬larious comedian. Yet strangely he is modest and unas¬suming; sure of himself, yet not a showoff. He is in¬volved in a romance muddle, similar to that of a “Mid¬summer Night’s Dream.” Nurse Dinah Shore is passion¬ately enamoured of him, but both he and his roommate,Dana Andrews, are in love with nurse Constance Dowl¬ing, who returns the affections of Andrews. When boththe boys are drafted, the nurses join up and everybodyis shipped overseas, where Kaye blunders into becominga hero. Spaced appropriately are his zany songs—whichare more correctly termed acrobatic feats. He practical¬ly works himself into a frenzy on “Melody in 4F”. Smedley . . .(Continued from page three)the votes were counted. The chairmanannounced the results. “The motion torefer the six pages to the Board ofTrusties with the added statementthat this in no way expresses a confi¬dence or a lack of confidence in thePresident has been passed by a voteof 84 to 42.” The results were greet¬ed with tremendous applause froml>oth sides.Just then a small gentleman got up.“I move that we consider the Blackreport for Senate reorganization.”When the motion was seconded he be¬gan to read,“On December 31, 1942, Presidentiutchins circulated to the membersof the Senate a communication fromthe Board of Trusties. In this com¬munication were set forth certain rec-omendations of the President for aca¬demic reorganization ...”“Goodness,” said Smedley, “Arethey going to read that whole thingaloud when everybody has a copy, in-'eluding the exhibits?”After what seemed ages, the mansat down. A senator arose, “I move werefer this back to the committee,” heshouted through the smoke. There wasa second made, a vote taken, and thenthey no longer had to think about this.“Goodness,” said Smedley. “I don’tKnow ^y I ever came in here. I don’tthink the results are worth the subter¬fuge.”A man from the back arose. “Imove that we consider the Zephyrpetition.” This was seconded and theauthor began reading,“The undersigned wish to place thefollowing resolution before the Uni¬versity Senate:1. Before accepting the proposalcontained in a resolution recently cir¬culated among members of the Senatethat the departments as they now ex¬ist be sanctioned as true guardians ofacademic freedom and integritythroughout the University, the Senateis asked to appoint a committee toinvestigate whether all departmentsare actually administered accordingto these standards...” lies between this abridged version andthe composer’s version on Columbia,which contains all seven movements.Of the two versions, the Victor is themore recent recording and there is nota great deal of difference between thetwo interpretations. On the otherhand, Columbia offers the composer’sown concept of the work. The onlydrawback is for the lazy—Columbiadoes not press the set in automaticsequence.The other outstanding English workis Ralph Vaughan William’s A Lon¬don Symphony, with Eugene Goosensand the Cincinnati Symphony. Thework is fairly conventional, and soare most of the harmonies. Here andthere, however, some of the weirdcombinations, which later were todrive some critics to the funny farmwhen they appeared in the F MinorSymphony, can be noticed. The hun¬ger march in the last movement is agood example of William’s writing ofan effective passage with an economyof means. If one had to choose onlyone work from among all the modems,would suggest that either the Holstor the Vaughan Williams are strongpossibilities.The primitive vs. decadent contro¬versy which split this campus threeyears ago never could decide aboutHolst’s work, so I suggest The Planetsto the prhnitivists and the neutral:A London Symphony for the decadentsand again, the neutrals.In the realm of experimental music,there is a certain amount of freechoice which can be exercised. Thereis the Sibelius Seventh Symphony,which is best in the Beecham-NewYork Philharmonic verson. This work,written in 1925, is an attempt—and asuccessful one—to create a one-move¬ment symphony. On the exotic sideis Milhaud’s Les Choephoroes, a set¬ting of passages from Aeschylus’ lA-'yation-Bearers, done to the accompani¬ment of primitive voodo rhythms andAfrican chants. This is a most effec¬tive capturing of the spirit of a workin terms of quite a different culture.If the reader feels he simply mustlave a work by Shostakovitch in thehouse, then I suggest either the firstor sixth symphonies—Rodzinski on theFirst and Stokowski on the Sixth. ThePiano Concerto is a somewhat form-les thing, with dashes of writing ofthe type that goes with nickelodeonthrillers.—W.W.Smedley noticed the President smil¬ed at this last. When the man hadfinished, the Senators agreed to referthis to the Committee on UniversityPolicy.The next business was the proposalfor the new degree program in theSchool of Social Service Administra¬ tion.“Here’s where you get it, George,”said Smedley. However, just ‘then aSenator arose and moved they referthis to Committee.The chairman looked at a list andthen at his watch. “We are out ofcommittees and we haven’t time toappoint another if we want to gethome to supper. You’ll have to voteon this.” They then voted it throughquickly and ^he meeting adjournedafter they all agreed on an ambiguousstatement to be given the press.The President smilingly rushed outahead of the Senators. Smedley andGeorge followed him to his officewhere he picked up the phone andshouted, “Hello Maude! I’m glad Iwon.”“Goodness,” said Smedley as he andGeorge hurried home for supper. “Iguess Dad is right. All Senators arealike. The only place they, really getdown to business is in the Men’sRoom.”(Next week Smedley Visits a Fra-ternty House cr a Vice-Presidentialcandidate—if he’s in.)Sb the CHICAGO MAROONAthletic Department Plans NewAll-University Sports ProgramClose on the heels of the announce¬ment that the University would nothave sufficient men to go into BigTen competition comes the news thatthe Athletic Department is workingon extensive plans for greater sportsparticipation for all University mennext year.Referred to by J. Kyle Anderson,Acting Dtrector of Physical. Educa¬tion, as a “kind of survey course insports,” the general Physical Educa¬tion Program for Men has a threefoldobjective: (1) familiarity with thetechniques of several different com¬petitive sports; (2) physical condi¬tioning; and (3) the training in thoseattitudes taught by athletic competi¬tion that may be carried on into thesocial life of the students when theyhave taken their places in the businessor professional life of their communi¬ties.At the present time, only the broadgeneral outlines of the new athleticprogram have been formulated, andMr. Anderson said that he and hisstaff expect to spend the entire sum¬mer in preparing for next year's ath¬letic activity. Although the emphasisnext year will not be on the prepara¬tion for ‘varsity’ competition, it isanticipated that teams will representthe University against other Big Tenschools on a non-conference-cham-pionship-play basis, if there should beenough candidates for the teams.A combined effort on the part of theAthletic Department and the Office ofthe Dean of Students will be madeto attract the attention of all menstudents of the University to the op-“FREE MEN IN A FREE COMMUNITY—THAT IS THE END OF LIBERAL EDUCA-TION."—Robert Hutchins.What is the true purpose of educa¬tion?

Although the new program willbe comprehensive in scope, and willinvolve considerable stability of rou¬tine, in line with its new course-likecharacter, all University men will befree to elect the times and days onwhich to participate in athletic activ¬ities of their own choosing.While team-play of the basketballand baseball type will naturally begiven considerable emphasis, great¬er stress will be laid on two-mancompetitive sports such as tennis,squash, handball, boxing, and wres¬tling, as well as on golf, fencing, andswimming. In addition to these sports,the Staff of the Athletic Departmentstands ready, to offer instruction inany other sport for which there isenough student demand.Those individuals electing the for¬mal course will be required to selectan indoor and an outdoor sport in'which to acquire proficiency and atthe end of the course will be judgedon their achievements in their chosen activities. The main criteria for eval¬uating progress will be the student’sown particular mental and physicalequipment for athletic competition.Although the abnormal conditionsbrought about by the war hamper at¬tempts to reach a large portion ofthe student body—those people whocommute, who do not belong to fra¬ternities, or who do not live in dormi¬tories—a concerted publicity programwill be inaugurated in which all stu¬dent activity groups will be asked toparticipate to bring the full details ofthe new program before all men stu¬dents.As was pointed out above, the pres¬ent plans are very general and theAthletic Department has by no meanscompleted the groundwork for the newventure.When the final plans have beendrawn, and the Athletic Departmentis ready to initiate the program.

The Chinesewere driven out of their more moderncities and lost most of their suppliesas well as half their doctors. This leftthem with 11,000 doctors to care for540 million people. Dr. Lim helped toorganize the training program formedical officers. People, some of whomwere at high school level, were given athree month course, after which theywere sent out as practically full-fledg¬ed doctors. The idea of giving thema microscopic medical course wassoon discarded in favor of revolution¬ary methods. Completely scientifle ob¬jectivity took the place of conventionalprofessional ethics.
