Hans Lange ToConduct FinolMusic ProgramBy SAMUEL GOLDENWednesday evening. May 9, at 8:30p.m. a free concert will be givenin Mandel Hall by the University ofChicago Chamber Orchestra.

Perry O’Neill, who washeard earlier this year in the Villa-Lobos program, will be soloist in thiswork. The concerto is a delicate andvery appealing piece of music. Accord¬ing to Hans Lange, who will againconduct the orchestra, “All of his lifeMozart called Christian Bach thegreatest of composers. And you cantell the influence the earlier composerhad over him, for this compositionis in the style of Mozart, but onlyin its orchestration a little mjoreprimitive.” O’Neill’s adequate tech¬nical competence and Lange’s fineartistic understanding promise tomake the performance of this worka noteworthy one.The Gretry suite is a fresh, de¬lightful work which is being rehearsedwith enthusiasm by the orchestramembers. The six short dance move¬ments are colorfully entitled: DanceLeger, Contredance, Romance, DanceGeneral, Pas De Trous, and Finale(Carmagnole).The Bach Prelude, Chorale and Fu¬gue, arranged by Abert, which wasadapted for full orchestra by GeorgeDasch, is a powerful work employ¬ing an all-brass choir for the chorale.The complete effectiveness in concertof this work will be contingent onlyupon the polishing up of certain de-(Continued on page six) NOTED STARTO FEATUREPEACE RALLYMeeting to Stress ImportOf San Francisco ParleyBy RUTH WACHTENHEIMPaul Robeson, noted concertartist and star of “Othello”, willbe a guest speaker in Mandel Hallat 3:30 p.m. Monday, May 15,at an all-campus rally designedto make students aware of theimportance of the United NationsConference on International Or¬ganization at San Francisco.Other leading civic, business, andcampus leaders will also present theirviews on the significance of the de¬cisions reached at San Francisco.Participating in the plans for theevent, among other groups, are theYoung Women’s Christian Association,American Youth for Democracy, Vet¬eran’s Council, Hillel Foundation, theInter-fraternity Council and The Chi¬cago Maroon.The Committee in charge, which in¬cludes Allan Rosenblatt, arrange¬ments; Mary Alice Reed, publicity;and Jess Polacheck, speakers, issending out letters to all organiza¬tions on campus, with a request tohold membership meetings to discussthe conference.“We hope this rally will help toarouse cognizance in the students ofthe necessity for an effective peaceorganization at this time,” said MissPolacheck.“Everyone,” she continued, “is ableto voice his opinion of every part ofthe conference, advocating or disap¬proving the parley by telegraphing orwriting to the official delegates.

MerriamHits ^Doubting Thomases* WhoFear Evolution of NewDemocracy(WRITTEN EXCLUSIVELY FOR THE CHICAGO MAROON)I have been asked by The Chicago Maroon to comment onDr. Hayek’s Road to Serfdom, a book I reviewed in the Novembernumber of the American JournalDr. Hayek’s volume is introducedto his readers as “a political book.”As a student of politics and govern¬ment, I make the following comments.1. The writer persistently ignoresplanning as carried on by many Amer¬icans and British who have for yearsconducted extensive systems of plan¬ning, local, state, regional and nation¬al, public and private. The AmericanSociety of Planning Officials locatedacross the street from the Universityof Chicago at 1313 East 60th Streetand the National Planning Associa¬tion in Washington (a private organ¬ization) are excellent examples. Nordoes the writer come to grrips with thenotable plans presented in Englandby Sir William Beveridge or the bril¬liant projects of the Political andEconomic Planning group.2. The writer shows only a very in¬adequate knowledge or understanding of Sociology.of administration and management astools of government, seeming to iden¬tify them with arbitrary decision, asagainst the “rule of law” he vaguelydiscusses.3. The writer seems distrustful ofdemocratic controls in the develop¬ment of modem society. “Why theWorst Get on Top” is the title of oneof his chapters.4. Attrbuting Naziism to Germanliberalism or German social democracyis a wholly untenable interpretation ofrecent history. I heard Hitler saythat he was to save the world fromBolchevism and his main attacks weremade upon all ofrms of socialism.5.

Wihave overthrown the internationalgangsters who hid behind Fascism andNaziism, and we are about to outlawwar and unemployment. The Spencer-Hayek-Mises arguments confuse rath¬er than clarify the issues of our time,present doubts and fears rather thanreason, courage, and faith.Never were the prospects for humanfreedom as bright, never were serf¬dom and slavery so discredited asin this hour of human emancipa¬tion. Nothing can stay the sweep ofdemocracy and liberty in the genera¬tion that stretches before us.

DudleyBillings Reed became a member of the faculty.For thirty-three years the Director of StudentHealth has served the University faithfully andhonestly. The welfare of the student has alwaysbeen a cardinal plank in his program.His scheduled retirement in the near futureaffords the University an opportunity to re¬examine student health and to frame blueprintsfor an organization capable of safeguarding thewell being of a moderate sized community. Itat once presents both the administration and thestudent body with a challenge.’ Distorted MythologyFew branches of the University in recentyears have been subjected to a heavier bombard¬ment of criticism and protest than the HealthBureau. Some of it may well be justified. Butentirely too many tales have lacked factual sub¬stantiation and are the figment of highly luridand imaginative minds. A distorted and badlyconfused legend has been a bigger enemy tostudent health than its alleged lack of facilitiesor proper care.In any event it is certainly high time thatsome action be taken. It is no longer a secret toreport that an extensive and far reaching in¬vestigation has been under way for some weeks.Medical centers at other Universities have beenstudied. The University is well aware that it isshouldered with a tremendous responsibility, andas such it is preparing to reorganize this branchof the institution.There are two salient steps to be taken inmoving up the ladder to a more adequate studenthealth program. First, the selection of a newdirector should be made only after extreme carehas been taken and a thorough investigation hasbeen made. Not only is it necessary that we havea physician of high repute, but it is also of vital Healthimportance that he be an excellent administratorand that above all he be made to realize thatstudent health is at all times a service to thestudent body. A minimum of red tape and amaximum of prompt attention appears to be inorder.Students Have Duty TooOf equal significance, is the necessity forputting a clamp on the rumor foundry which hasground out so many nefarious stories. Studentsof the University must prepare to offer the newdirector an opportunity to demonstrate that hisprogram fiills the void which is so apparent.Student health is on trial. But the jurors mustbe tolerant, open minded, lacking in bias. It isincumbent upon every student of the Universityto assume a joint responsibility with the ad¬ministration—that of suggestion for improve¬ment. It is not enough to assert that a serious andhighly lamentable condition exists; it is notenough to ride along on pet gripes and unsub¬stantiated rumors. Concrete suggestions forimprovement are in demand.

The Reveille, had this tosay about it:The biggest clothes mania whichhas hit college campuses since thecoming of the saddle shoe is the bluejean, signs of which have becomemore prevalent by the day on theL.S.U. campus. Men may groan andfaculty moan but, on thick or thin,the blue jean carries on.Glerks in men^s stores have longago resigned themselves to the dim¬inutive and very feminine coed whoasks for “Boys blue jeans, please,smallest size.”Size, though, is really irrelevant.Though designers and fashion expertshave tried admirably and long topopularize fitted clothes among co¬eds, the Sloppy Joe sweater, old- fashioned nightshirt, and bright plaidshirts have proved, rather conclusive¬ly, that the gals like their relaxingduds roomy—enough for a moderatesized tractor. Therefore it mattersnot that a 32-inch waistline is gath¬ered in to enclose a 24-inch waist,and, illogically enough, that 36-inchhips are squeezed into the 35-inchmeasurement of the boys’ jeans.There is little variety in the strictcode of the “jeaners.” They wearthem always with one leg rolled, onedown, a leather belt, preferable fancy,and saddle shoes or moccasins. Drapedlike a graceful tow sack, the volum¬inous checke^:ed or plaid shirt topsoff this ensemble on chilly days.We have yet to see the cooler de¬velopment in shirts brought by thecoming summer, or even whether thefad will brave the unabating stormof masculine opposition and the Ba¬ton Rouge heat waves, but for thepresent—‘chick, ain’t we?’-New Assignment ofAST P's Here May 7Seventy-five new ASTP trainees,enrolled in the foreign area and lan¬guage courses, will arrive here May7, Gapt.

I thoughtI had the mumps. The doctor looked at me with his desk lamp,took my temperature and announced that, as far as he could tell, Idid not have the mumps. I was reassured, but remembered after¬wards that the learned gentleman told me neither what the irrita¬tion might be, nor what I should do. I did, as the story always goes,come down with mumps, exposing, after my interview, at leastfifteen unsuspecting people.I could go on being bitter by telling of my past experiences with studenthealth. There is no point in that, and besides, it is too near Gomprehensivesto have such lugubrious humor pushed in anyone’s ear.Sometime, however, Billings might find it edifying to take a poll and seeexactly what the current opinions are about the available service. Withsuch a compact course of study as is presented to us, the moderately intelligentstudent can’t afford to be sick. Not even the most wealthy among us canafford to pay a health fee of $9 a year for inadequate, inefficient, anddangerous attention in return. But it is not just my tales of woe, or thoseof my friends. The whole campus is alive with indignation and disgust.One wonders when the authorities, who ever they may be, will recognizethis long standing joker.Thank goodness I live off campus, and have other doctors whom I canconsult. I feel sorry for those out of town students who have no otherGhicago connections. As far as I am concerned, a trip to Billings is awell paved road to disaster.In hopes that this may form a policy, I remain,B. J. S.(signature withheld on request)* * *Her Realism ^Unreal’, He SaysTo the Editor:At the present time there is a tendency to adopt a “realistic” point ofview on foreign policy questions. This tendency is unfortunately limited bymany, amongst them Miss Lurie, author of one of last week’s letters in thiscolumn. Their realism stops just short of the plans for the future, the natureof the peace. According to Miss Lurie, when we discuss the domestic policiesof President Truman and the San Francisco Conference, we are to have“Faith”. I presume that when we discuss Darlanism, the Curzon Line, andthe Greeks killed in Athens by Allied bullets, we must be realistic. Wemight say of these Greeks killed in Athens that they had attained Miss Lurie’s“lasting peace—through the cooperation of the leading powers involved”, butwe should be somewhat suspicious of the justice of that action, not “cautious”,“suspicious”.That was the British in Greece, though. Roosevelt was different. Allvery well, but: “The (Roosevelt) Administration has made many protesta¬tions of noble aims in foreign policy, but when the moment came to act onthem it has hesitated and compromised. Its foreign policy has not been tosupport the American principles of Freedom. It has dealt with fascist ele¬ments in conquered countries, it has disregarded the will of the people inthese countries;—. It has been canny and personal and subjective. It hascalled this policy expediency. But since the policy has produced little butdislike, distrust and loss of prestige for the United States without achievingthe intended poitical aims, it has not even been expedient.” These wordswere not the words of some revolutionist hiding behind a cop^ of Capital,nor of the Chicago Tribune. These are the words of the late Wendell Wilkie,who was one of the leading exponents of American Liberalism. They are theexpression of his “disappointment” after the national conventions of last year.That, however, was in 1944. The San Francisco Conference is in 1946.Lasting Peace on the march.

They are solely responsible for the beauty ofthe campus, and incidentally, for blocking off your favorite pathswith those perennial wire fences.With the coming of warm weather,the department began its annualspring house-cleaning. Under the di¬rection of Lyman R. Flook, Superinten¬dent of Buildings and Grounds, andHead Landscape Gardener Carl F.Mack, the men employed on thegrounds lifted their rakes out of cam¬phor and began cleaning up the lit¬ter of winter. This spring activity,now in progress, includes the seedingof approximately 100 acres of theUniversity ground. About 3000 lbs. ofgrass seed will be sown' this year.Because the soil is not too rich, anytramping across the new grass isinjurious. The department set outfive “Please” signs, but apparentlythey had little effect, since four werestolen, and students continue to tra¬vel their old paths.Keeping up the appearance of thecampus is no part-time job. With al¬most 25 blocks to cover, even the or¬dinary tasks of sprinkling and mow¬ing the grass take a little time. B & Gnow shares a motor-driven mowingmachine with the athletic departmentthree days a week, but they’d ra¬ther not think about what will hap¬pen when that breaks down.Trimming and pruning the treesand shrubs, anti-insect spraying, andreplacing shrubs are the not-so-ob- vious, but nevertheless,, important,duties of the department.One of the major headaches of theB & G is the constant littering of thecampus with newspapers, candy wrap¬pers, crumpled cigarette wrappers,and loose paper of all kinds—par¬ticularly in front of the UniversityBookstore.To supply replacements for shrubsand various plants as needed and toexperiment with new plants beforeplacing them out on the campus.Buildings and Grounds maintains itsown greenhouse in the area of BarnesLaboratory, and a nursery of aboutan acre on Cottage Grove Ave., near57th St. The Department also hasabout three acres in a nursery al¬most thirty miles west of the Uni¬versity.B. & G. launched a general pro¬gram of improvement in 1930.

It is comprehensiveand includes American art from the turn ofthe century to the present day.The Britannica is owned by the University.Members of the University art department havebeen closely associated with the exhibit.All phases of contempbrary American life arerepresented.

Prominent among these were the PureFood and Drug Act, outlawing impure foods and drugs^ the Inter¬state Commerce Act, outlawing interstate commerce, the ElkinsAct, outlawing Elkins, etc.Also prominent was the conflictover the tariff. The pretexts used bythe tariff advocates (pretexionists)were that the tariff:1. Raised the level of employment.2. Promoted domestic prosperity.3. Protected the common man.Their opponents, the free traders,denounced these aims, maintainingthat elimination of the tariff would:1. Protect the common man.2. Promote domestic prosperity.3. Raise the level of employment.The controversy raging about theseconflicting ideas flamed for yearsuntil it was finally suppressed, there¬by becoming America’s most^ famousmute question.Prominent in this and other ques¬tions was the silver tongued and sil¬ ver minded orator, William JenningsBryan.

Ml.B’iday, May 4, 1945jaekHUlTime InLast week’s editorial by AbeKrash, Maroon editor and ourimmediate boss, should afford usmaterial for weeks to come.There is nothing we would ratherdo than argue the case for ath¬letics at the University of Chi¬cago. In fact, since Saturdayabout all we’ve been doing istalking about the general view¬point of the student on campusin connection with athletics.Mr. Krash had some very goodpoints in his composition. We whole¬heartedly agree with him when hesays that it is the job of those whoare interested in sports to sell sports.But when Mr. Krash says that thePresident has nothing against ath¬letics and that the administrationmade their stand "crystal clear,” weare forced to take issue with him.Again when the editorial statesthat there is a necessity to demon¬strate that a full and well roundedsports program is an integral partof a college curriculum, we are hardput to demonstrate such a necessity.It has always been our opinion thateven the administration has at leastpartially agreed on the need for phy¬sical education. Without health, andhealth goes hand in hand with phy¬sical education, even the most bril¬liant student will have difficultymaintaining the constant pressure sonecessary in the college curriculumof today. Without a healthy body,how can any earnest man or womanhope to accomplish whatever goals hesets for himself?If Mr. Krash had taken a littlemore time to study our recent at¬tempts, he might have noted that atno time have we asked for a "grid¬iron with classrooms attached there¬to.” Nor have we ever asked for sub¬sidization or proletyzation. In fact,this column has never asked for thereturn of inter-collegiate football.We have tried to bring home the factthat the ‘cold-shoulder’ which Presi¬dent Hutchins and many of the fac¬ulty have given athletics has almostproved its death blow.There, in one sentence, is what tous, is the only logical explanation forthe poor showings Chicago has madein recent years. If Mr. Hutchins, orDean Maclean, or Dean Faust, orDean Kimpton would unbend enoughto admit that physical education canhelp make a better student, theremight be a slight chance that Chicagocould somehow pull out of its pres¬ent athletic doldrums.We’d like to hear from both sidesof the fence on this question. It istime that this situation be broughtout into the open and examined byall concerned. Either a positive ornegative statement from any of theDeans or the President would be wel¬come. With such a statement, Chi¬cago would know whether to proceedwith everything possible, or whetherUniversity athletics should give upthe ghost quietly.3 Intramural SoftballLeagues ScheduledOpening its 1946 Reason, intra¬mural softball at the University ofChicago will get under way as soonas the weather permits.

High athlete and captainof the Junior team, wl^o himselfearned more than twice the total ofthe South Shore team. Bob’s wins inthe 50, the 100, the 220, the low hur¬dles, the high jump, and the broadjump, seconds in the shotput and dis¬cus, and anchor lap of the winningJunor relay added up to 33^ points.Other winning performances in theJunior division were turned in byCharlie Forck in the 660 and CharlieHuggins in the discus.High-point man in the Senior wasBob Petty, who won the discus, tooksecond in the shotput, the 100, the 220,and ran in the 880 relay. Dave Hallcontributed 13 points by virtue ofwins in the 440 and 880 and a secondin the broad jump, and Captain BobCollins anchored the Senior relayteam, in addition to winning the highand low hurdles. Other Senior win¬ners included "Skinny” Hanson andFrank Mangin, who dead-heated inthe mile, Dave Weaver in the highjump, Don Bushnell in the broadjump, and Chuck Ferris in the polevault.An indication of the team strengthmay be seen in the number of sweepsthat the Juniors and Seniors turnedin.
