J , f'4 :■ ■’ - ■■■ ■ . ■ ■ - /r'...... JTHE O^ICASO MAROONmm a fli ^mijk JtKt^ IR;*This Is Our Credo... itJournalists the world over live in an ivorylower of tradition which dictates that, in his first"edition, each new editor of a newspaper shalllimise his green eye-shade and inform his public,Iwith the most glittering generalities and in themist grandiose manner possible, of the platformand policy he intends to follow. The public towhom it is directed, however, has been pamperedon a “news in capsule form'* diet and hence hascome to expect a brisk, alliterative, jingle-likemotto which can be flung into any fray in whichthe newspaper may engage.We of the University of Chicago have longJived in an ivory tower across the street fromthe newshbunds, and it is from this ivory towerthat we have insisted that there is a limit to tra¬dition and that there is far more to a policy thancryptic punch-words. We of The Maroon believethat no policy is ew enunciated by one whomarches up and down the highways and bywaysand spouts from the rooftop to all who pass thathe is either liberal or conservative, pleasantlypink or Flaming Fascist. Concrete policies areonly those seen in a consistent, concerted line ofaction as presented over a long period of time inan honest and fortl^right manner.And it is thus that we believe that one is ask¬ing the impossible in seeking a lengthy and in¬volved pronouncement of policy, for we are notcrystal ball gazers who can confidently forecastevery possible contingency, nor are we so set, sostatic that we shall never alter our views or ourposition.We believe, however, that a candid statementof The Maroon*s position as a newspaper on theattnpus is due to all concerned.We believe that we have a definite responsi¬bility to the student body of the University. Itis not only to tell the news in the most compre¬hensive and objective manner possible, but it isto further serve as a guide to opinion, as a rep¬resentative “sounding board," if you vsl^ill, of themost astute reading clientele of any college pub¬lication today. We shall never be satisfied withmerely printing the news.The Maroon is one of the few newspapers inthe land which is not an adjunct of a journalismschool. It is further one of a handful of publi¬cations completely free of faculty interferenceand administration censorship; We are proud ofthat record and we shall attempt to maintain it. We believe furthermore that we must be dras¬tically independent, free from bias and pettyprejudices, a member of no party but sympathet¬ic to all. We shall never be dominated by anypressure group or petty clique. Our columnswill always be open to comment and opinion fromevery faction, from every individual on the cam¬pus.We shall be constructive critics in that weshall praise the good, denounce that which we re¬gard as unjust and contrary to the well beingof the University as a whole.We shall promote every worthwhile studentactivity to the greatest possible extent, fromthe religious groups to athletics, from politicalclubs to the dormitory program. We believe fur¬thermore that the gap between The College andThe Divisions must be bridged and that the in¬ternal discord within The College itself must bere-solved. To this end, the columns of The Ma^roon shall henceforth be open to The College andto The Divisions alike.And yet not everything of vital concern tothe University occurs within the narrow confinesof the Quadrangles. Events of the greatest sig¬nificance to higher education and to Universitystudents as participants in this education areconstantly taking place. Too often, in our narrowand petty fashion we bury our heads in the sandand sidestep these events. We of The Maroonhave no sympathy with such ostriches. We shallliterally lift the latch in our news and editorialcolumns alike to such material and we shall al¬ways welcome the comments of others on theQuadrangles, faculty and students alike, on suchmatters which are of timely import.There is no room on this campus for flabbyor fragile thinking. On these Quadrangles arecollected some of the most brilliant and penetrat¬ing minds in the world of learning, scholars andstudents alike. They have a right to expect hon¬esty and a firm and a positive stand on vital is¬sues. As such we shall never hesitate to criticizeeven those who are shielded by the veil ofauthority.In our turn we do not expect to be spared crit¬icism. But we believe that criticism levelledagainst us should be at all times honest, openlystated, justifiable, and constructive. We shallalways welcome such an analysis.This then is our credo.At Orchestra HallChoir ShowsMusicianships Our University of Chicago Choirgave a performance of three excerptsfrom the St, Matthew Passion, byBach, last Thursday with the ChicagoSjrmphony, and they may be justlyproud of their work.The audience was charmed by thewonderful blending of the choir withorchestra in the first excerpt, OMan Bewail Thy Sin So Great, Thea eapella chorale, When I Too Am de¬parting, was sung with good balanceand fine, powerful feeling. Final of¬fering was the last double chorus InDeepest Grief. This is a very full,profound work, and the execution wasof a high quality. The most outstand¬ing feature of the choir’s singing wasthe high standard of musicianship,and here the effects of Mr. Schrothare most evident. It would be an ex¬aggeration to call the performancep^eet, but those aspects which werel^ist successful, the occasional ladk ofbalance between the men’s and wom¬en’s, and ineptness of voice qualityare largely to be attributed to theeffect of war and its subsequent msm-power shortage, S.G.

The Women'sSelf- Governing Association,which is supposed to set andmaintain standards for the coedshoused on campus, originallymoved up week-epd hours to oneo’clock but then restored the oldtwo o'clock permissions. Lastweek, however, accompanied bycomments of “undemocratic"from the Daily Northwestern,the faculty Committee on Stu¬dent Personnel, revoked the stu-ed the one o'clock permissions.Among the other doings on theNorth Side was a lecture given Wed¬nesday by Colonel T. V. Smith, onleave from bhicago’s Philosophy De¬partment, and just returned fromItaly, where he was head of the edu¬cational program of Cie AHG. Smithis the co-author, with David Grene,of the well known From Descartesto Kant. Innuendoes Friday, April 6. 1945by ArmstrongNEWS ITEM: University of Chicago women are ’’socially imma.tnre and present a sloppy physical appearance” a member of the ASTPstationed on the campus said last week in a letter to the editor, puhlishedby the Geisha Gasette^ ASTP journal on the campus.The writer, styling himself ’’Disappointed Dan” said that his com¬pany, composed of many former college men, had been stathmed on thecampus for six weeks and had ”an ample opportunity to become acquaint¬ed with that species of fauna known as the U. of C. co-ed.” ”It’s been arather disappmnting and deluding experience,” he added.’’We have met eo^s from various sections of the country. Thnncame Chicago! And our first experience with blue jeans rolled up to thehips and sweaters drooping down to meet them.”’’Aside from lack of propriety and sense of taste with regard toclothing and manners, they seem to possess few of the graceful andcharming qualities usually ai^uainted with women of culture.”Letters to the EditorAYD Sides With Maroon StandOn Federal Aid To Colleges(Columns of The Maroon are open to student comment in the form ofLetters to the Editor, Letters on questions of interest to the student bodywill be published verbatim. All letters should be mailed to **Letters to TheEditor” Chicago Maroon, and nmy be sent via faculty exchange. Unsignedcorrespondence cannot he puhlished hut names will be withheld upon request.)To the Editor:We would like to express our hearty agreement with thestand taken in the editorial of last week (March 23), concerninglederal aid to higher education.All post-war plans based on agreatly expanded economy call fora much larger number of people thanare now available or which can beproduced by American schools withtheir present facilities. The fact thattoo many capable people have beendeprived of higher education has con¬tributed to our present labor shor¬tage. The G.I. Bill of Rights providesan excellent basis for democratic edu¬cation, i.e., regardless of race, sex oreconomic status. The idea of an “aris¬tocracy of education” belongs to theMiddle Ages.^ There is a great need for a free-four-year college in Chicago. In con¬nection with this there is legislationpending in Springfield which if passedwould allow the city to operate suchan institution. In Congress, too, billsare pending which concern aid to col¬leges. Information on this mattershould be presented to ,the people toenable them to express themselvesconstructively and to get the billspassed in the best possible form.We are launching such a campaignin the sincere hope that it will aidin achieveing this.Very truly yours,American Youth fer Demoeraey To the Editor;Several weeks ago you pub¬lished a letter from some iratestudent suggesting that HarperLibrary’s signs should read, “WeSteal.” I’d like to extend this con¬demnation to Wieboldt and theCommons, perhaps having thesign read “Abandon books, allago, I bought an English book,ye that enter here.” Several daysleft it outside tiie Commons ateleven thirty, and at twelve itwas gone.I realize that Wieboldt and Com¬mons warn you and assume no re-sponsibiilty, but where can a studentleave his books during the lunchhour? Off campus students have loc¬kers, which leaves the rest of us preyto the itching fingers of some minor-league Mephistopheles.Isn’t is possible for some checksystem to be installed at the Com¬mons where books would be watch^?At only a small expense to the school,a great many students would saveenough money to pay the new tui¬tion boost. While all book-loversshould be encouraged, let them buildtheir library on a firmer founda¬tion than stolen books-—especiallymy books.Donn FiseherFriday, April 6, 1945 THE CHICAGO MAROON PageMerriam to Launch Walgreen Series Next ThursdayFamed Political Scientist To"Perfection/Says ReviewerOf SchnabelBy Samuel GoldenIt is not an easy task to sitdown and type out a review of aSchnabel concert. If Fm honestwith myself, I will think, “Whatis there to say? The man is per¬fection himself, anything I saycan only detract from what wasexpressed in the music.’* Butwhat are the evidences of thisman’s greatness, which everyonein Mandel Hall surely felt?They can best be described as theyappeared in Beethoven’s Thirty-threeVariations on a Waltz by A* Diabelli,Opus 120, which comprised the con¬cluding half of the concert. Thesevariations cover a wide range of dif¬ferent moods; together they are morein the nature of a well-unified con¬cert than a single piece. It is asthough Beethoven had, using the Dia¬belli waltz as the barest formal out¬line, allowed his mind to dwell uponmany different past impressions, andset these down into music. Sometimesone variation grows out of another,at other times successive movementsare of a completely contrasting cha¬racter. Isn’t this njuch like the wayour imaginations work, in bringingtogether impressions of greater orlesser logical association? It wouldbe of little purpose to point out anymovements as especially good; thoughsome are naturally more appealingthan others, they are all of a highstandard of emotional “realness”. Onehas the feeling that every one isin its proper place, and that nonecould be altered without destroyinga part of the effect.The art of Beethoven is evident;the art of Schnabel is in relivingwith perfect authenticity this emo¬tional experience of the composer.Mr. Schnabel plays effortlessly, star¬ing into space dreamily, as thoughhe were listening with uninhibitedappreciation while his fingers, ap¬parently unconnected to the erst ofhis body, play the music of Beetho¬ven as it was meant to be played.It would almost be an insult tothe man’s artistic sense to make apurely technical analysis of his per¬formance. Within every phrase thereare definite tempo changes, unnoticedbecause they definitely belong in themusic; a near infinity of subtletiesof dynamics and even tone color aregiven out in Mr. Schnabel’s inter¬pretation. How true it must appearthat the whole of the music of awork cannot be^ represented an theprinted page!roupDocumentary GLists Fiction FilmsFor Sprng Quarter"Crime and Punishment,” the first•f the Spring Quarter series of fic¬tion films sponsored by the Documen¬tary Film Group, will be shown Tues¬day evening at 8 p.m. in Social Sci¬ence 122.

Merriam, regarded as America’s foremost politicalscientist, will begin a series of six lectures for the Walgreen Foundationnext Thursday and will analyse government and the economic order inthe United States in one of the most significant lecture series ever tobe presented on the Quadrangles.Merriam, Morton D. Hull Distin¬guished Service Professor Emeritusof Political Science, proposes to “shedmore light on the line between econo¬mics and government thru semantics,psychology, and the differences ofpublic and private government.His lectures areanother in theWalgreen founda¬tion series, es¬tablished in 1936 asa gift of the fam¬ily of the lateCharles R. Wal¬green, drug storetycoon, and thelectures and func-Merriam tions of the foun¬dation are all directed toward thefurtherance of the study and inter¬pretation of American institutions.Thus the title of Merriam’s lectures:“Government and the Economic Or-Jndy DownsServin' It HotFirst surprise of the week comeswith viewing Warner Brothers short.Jamming the Blues at the State-LakeTheater. At last we have Hollywoodshowing some semblance of maturityand appreciation in its approach tojazz. Under the direction of GjonMili and Norman Granz the photog¬raphy is startling, the music authen¬tic, the whole presentation gratifying-ly serious.The picture fades in on a curl ofcigarette smoke crossing a mysteriousblack circle, which evolves into thetop of Lester Young’s hat. Eight mensit on a barren, shadowed stage, ex¬changing choruses of the blues.A striking female strolls across theforeground, to reappear presently,blurring in through a shutter effect,to sing Sunny Side of the Street. Shesings, as all the musicians play, in arelaxed and expressive manner. Withthe change of mood the background islightened and two silhouetted figuresare introduced who work through afew rather abstract “jitterbug” steps.Here we have the only evidence of thedanger imminent in such an ambitiousproduction—a lack of essential unitybetween photography and music.There was some slight slip betweenthe photographing of the scene andthe recording of the sound track; thedancers are perfoming from anothersphere with complete disregard forwhat the musicians are playing.The last number is a fast jumptune. Joe Jones replaces Big Sid Cat-let on drums, and all ride like mad. Atthe very end there seems to be thedanger of reverting from the inti¬mate jam style to big band riffs, butthe danger is never realized.Orchids to Hollywood for the cour¬age and integrity it displays in Jam¬ming the Blues. There’s no compro¬mising on jazz—not even on the pointof presenting a mixed band (althoughthe photography is so that this factis almost unnoticed.) There was athrill in noting the reaction of thetheater audience, who by their ap¬plause at the finish and their excla¬mations throughout the picture dem¬onstrated their appreciation of theunique, intelli(jent presentation of anunappreciated American art. der in the United States.” The under¬graduate and graduate students ofthe University are expected to be theprinciple beneficiaries of the fund.The annual program is formulated bythe executive secretary of the foun¬dation and is then submitted to thePresident and one of the vice-presi¬dents of the University for theirsanction.During the coming six weeks, onThursday afternoons at 3 p.m. inRoom 122,- Social Science researchbuilding, the spring quarter serieswill be presented as part of the course“American Political Theories” whichis offered on Tuesdays and Thurs¬days from 2 to 4 p.m.In his lectures Merriam will combinehistory, economics, and government ina “theory practice” revue of the ori¬gins of the present order of govern¬ment in the United States. The se¬cond and third in his talks are plannedto set forth, by discussion, the am¬biguity, if there is such, in the terms“equality, freedom”, and “security”.Dr. Merriam intends also to showthat there are certain important factsin history we must first know beforethe “political and power” strugglesand questions of our day and agecan be solved.Ini the fourth and fifth lecturesof the group, the clear understand¬ing of the words “socialism” and“individualism”; our differences andlimitations; the proposed plans; andthe prospects that we can look for¬ward to are to be treated as a build¬up for the findings and conclusionof the lecture.In the first World War he waschairman of the Aviation ExaminingBoard and later directed Allied pro¬paganda in Italy. He is the authorof a score of books on political theo¬ry, political education, and relatedfields. Among his works is a volumeentitled “What Is Democracy”,which is a Foundation Study Publica¬tion of a former series of lectures.Book StuffFast CompilesPaine^s WorksThe Selected Work of Tom Paineby Howard Fast.Howard Fast has chosen an excel¬lent and timely topic for his new bookand presents it well. Much of thewriting of Tom Paine will bear re¬reading today—as much for idea con¬tent as historiacl value. The sincerityof a writer who believed in freedomand the Rights of Man and the sim¬plicity with which he presented themost intricate political ideas to “theman on the street” of RevolutionaryAmerica makes his work as importantand as readable today as it was 160years ago.Mr. Fast ties the “Works” togetherwith short biographical sketches,which show us the man Tom Paineand his motives and give a betterunderstanding of the original material.M.

QuadranglesMiscellany . . .The Evils of TobaccoEven if one doesn’t believe in the evil effects of nicotine, onestill has to consider the nuisance value of the comments of otherson the use of the weed. One of our friends, a young thing oftwenty who ordinarily gets half her fare back on street cars, hastaken to smoking a very ladylike pipe. She reports that everyother person she meets has attempted to advise her as to whattype of tobacco to use. Small boys have been following her downthe street and chiding her in dulcet tones that smoking isn’t goodfor her. But the crowning blow was the morning a queenlywoman passed her on the street, looked her up and down, andshuddered, “Now I’ve seen everything V*Elistory Repeats ItselfSeveral years ago at a tenth grade dance, a stink bomb was tossed atthe dancers and caused no end of trouble. It is reported that Harold A. An¬derson (now Marshal of the University) complained to the students that a“stench missile” had been thrown. And now we hear that some happy soal(s)at Burton-Judson tossed one of the afore-mentioned articles down in thecourt. One of our better known deans went oVer and with a blush on histrembling chin remarked* “I heah that some one has been throwing—er—-stench missiles.” In time this euphemism should become a University tra¬dition.Easter Sunday, April Fool’s Day TooSome well-meaning soul on Easter wandered happily into Gates Hall andblithely inquired whether it was Bond Chapel. This seems to be the first timethat saintliness has been imputed to the denizens of Gates. The Universityof Washington came out with something that the Maroon might have done—a beautifully integrated April Fool’s Day paper. We note that 13,000 menwill be sent to the Washington campus to alleviate the shortage—and in orderto take care of the 13,000 men a marriage course will be repeated (probablyon the principle that if at first you don’t succeed, etc.).Bombs Away!The University of Chicago seems to be inaugurating an oflScial coursefor would-be bombardiers. For several weeks we have been chronicling theassortment of articles which have been dropped from (usually) the top floorof Beecher. The latest: our esteemed (apparently—^he’s been singled outoften) Counsellor to Student Publications was strolling over to the Maroonelections last Friday and narrowly escaped with his life when a publicity-hungry female in Beecher tossed down a roll of john paper. This seems tobe adding insult to injury after last week’s paper bag filled with water.PersonalPatty Meyers definitely is not engaged—so don’t believe all the rumorsyou read in this column.. .Betty Early got herself hitched to Lieutenant SidCrys^ George Schroeder has given his pin to an off-campus queen ...

Contributions of green eye-shades are being solicited forthe benfit of Abe Krash, new Maroon editor.More Burton-JudsonMaureen Daly has been taken to heart by some of the literates at Burton-Judson. They have christened the heads “creeps” and assistant heads“droops” (as well as sundry other names unprintable). Someone has beenspreading a false rumor to the effect that there are no elevators in the 200Entry because the inmates always use their wings whenever practicable.Sweet Talk of SpringtimeDown at Morton’s the other night a handholding couple were having anearnest conversation. As the love light gleamed in their eyes, he was heardto say with great emotion, “You know, you’re talking in syllogisms.” Lastyear many eyebrows were raised when people saw a sign at the Commonsurging all students interested in employment to “See Miss Giltnor on theGround Floor.”-This year it was changed slightly to a mere “See Miss Giltnor”and now an interested person has written after those words “On the Floor?” “’Ia"Tbimder Rocfe,” English Film^Asks Hope For World^s Future“Thunder Rock”, the new film at the Playhouse, could be classed as prop¬aganda, not because it converts to free-love or nationalism, but because itasks for faith in the future of the world. But then again, classifying moviesas comedy, western, or propaganda material assumes the use of certaincinematic clichees which exclude originality, to a great extent. “ThunderRock” is an original attempt, and it deserves better treatment.The plot, adapted from a not toosuccessful play, concerns a youngjournalist who, after failing to makeEngland aware of the Fascist men¬ace, retires to a light house, escap¬ing from a world he cannot help.To amuse himself, he constructs animaginary society of six persons heknows were drowned in 1849. Theytoo, it seems, were all running awayfrom problems they could not face. As these images return to the dead,after telling their stories, the mangains faith and the courage to fightagain. This sounds remarkably trite,but plot synopses have a way ofdoing that.Since this is an English film, theactors are unfamiliar, except for Mi¬chael Redgrave, who does a good job-as the light-house keeper. The others,phantoms included, were excellent^^•9* Sh THE CHICAGO MAROON Friday. April 6.

It was Bokman’s first time inthe 1000 as was it the first time forRust in the 600.With the close of the regular in¬door track season, Coach Merriamwill now turn his attention to theoutdoor season.

Bob Lichtman at first, DickHolstrom at third and Bob Sidham atthe catcher post are all V12 studentsand represent the only experiencedmen on whom Weisman can count.By taking advantage of thegood weather during the past twoweeks, the Maroons have beenrounding into, shape. The numberof discharged service men on thesquad and the consequent increasein the average age of the teamhas been very heartening to An¬derson. Several of the men haveseen action on service teams buchas Camp Grant, Fort Sheridan>Great Lakes, etc.Kurt Smith, stocky third baseman,was a regular on the strong CampGrant team last summer and Knapp,Peliotes, Cimerblatt and Harrisonhave^ also played with governmentteams.
