We went around ask¬ing everyone up there until finallya small voice said they were run bya kid named Brown. “We are writ¬ing a hot story for the Maroon,”we said to the assembled actors,writers, directors, etc. (all dis¬guised as University students).“Who is this kid named Brown?The guy who rings the bells,”someone said.That is all there is to this story.It would seem to reveal a certainlack of efficiency on your weeklyMAROON, but the mystery of thetower and its lyric outbursts ispreserved.

Krogman, noted anthropologist, resigned sud¬denly yesterday as faculty advisor to the Student Anti-Dis¬crimination committee.In a letter to the editor of THE CHICAGO MAROON,Krogman revealed that he was in fundamental disagreementwith the action program of theanti - intolerance committee. Hisresignation statement came lessthan two weeks after the ADC hadcharged that anti-Negro and anti-Oriental policies were being con¬doned by University hospitals.Krogman said he had neversought to impose his views on thecommittee, but that he acceptedthe position of advisor only withthe understanding that his experi¬ence in bio-social relations wouldserve as a basis for “understand¬ing, guidance, and interpretation”in the committee program. The“bone detective” said he did notdisagree with the aims of the com¬mittee, but that he differed funda¬mentally on its action program.“It is my belief,” he said, “thatsocial change, to be effective andenduring, must come as a resultof an educational program. Mywriting and my social thinking are,directed to that end.”The letter implied that ADChas not emphasized the educa¬tional aspects of the war on intol¬erance. Krogman said he wouldaid the committee if his experienceor services should be needed in thefuture.Meanwhile, the committee iscontinuing its investigation of ra¬cial discrimination at the Univer¬sity hospitals.

The college faculty felledanother “obstacle” last week when it abolishedthe Ph. B. degree, symbol of paradox.Too many me.nbers of the college faculty,however, have greeted the vote with a sighof relief when it should have evoked a declara¬tion of firm determination to establish ameritorious curriculum. The B. A. is nowmandatory for all students, but the B. A.curriculum is thick with the barnacles of list¬less material and shoddy teaching. A thoroughoverhauling of the B. A. courses by the collegein conjunction with the divisions would ap¬pear to be in order.The revision of the curriculum at the sametime provides an excellent opportunity for anexperiment in faculty-student relationships.At this University the richness to be gained between student and scholar has been lost,partly because of apathy on the part of stu¬dents, in the main because of the sheerlypractical difficulties of teacher and studentmeeting informally due to the lack of facil¬ities or medium. Students may be denied, andrightly, the privilege of shifting through thecatalogue in search of courses, but they areintelligent and thoughtful enough to expressopinions, to know good teaching from bad, andto be capable of criticising the curriculum.The faculty would db well to confer withstudents informally. It would lend a vitalityand strength to the University which is nowbadly lacking.At the same time it is to be hoped that thecollege faculty will thrash out the issue, noton the basis of personal or political backbiting,but in an honest and candid manner in whichtbp*individual merits of each issue are theonly consideration. No other alternativeshould be tolerated.A SuggestionThe Student Social Committee,despite the fears that it might nothave adequate funds, is renewingone of the University’s oldest andmost colorful social traditions—the Washington Prom—next week.There should be no problem offunds to any meritorious studentorganization. If the Universitybelieves student activities are goodthey should be supported in finan¬cial terms and they should not berequired ta struggle under theonus of an, inadequate bank ac¬count.A student activity card, by re¬ quiring attendance and participa¬tion, is morally reprehensible. Butthe University could easily offerevery student the opportunity topurchase an activity ticket pro¬viding for subscription to Univer¬sity publications, admission to so¬cial events and concerts, and toathletic contests. The bookletcould perhaps be offered underthe auspices of an inter-organiza¬tional council and sold in the Bur¬sar’s Office during registration.The University has been askingfor a specific suggestion on howto aid activities.This is it.A Credo for Gl'sOn every campus in the land this year, former Gl’s stream¬ing back to the classrooms are involved in a bitter ideologicalconflict over their future as former veterans. Thirteen hundredformer servicemen now at the U. of C. have come to grips withthe same moral dilemma.Briefly phrased the problem is this: Should veterans establishthemselves as a minority, pressure group, seeking every benefitand reward the nation is able to bestow upon them, or shouldthey seek to accomplish their objectives as part of the com¬munity in the realization that the ultimate safety and prosperityof veterans is dependent on the ultimate safety and prosperityof all citizens?-c ' "'Hem is that sharp: Shouldeaten student groups andey work hand-in-glove with other'stration in solving veterans prob¬er assumes an anemic or lifelessstand on the part of G1 a. If and when either the administra¬tion or student groups appear to be acting in a manner deroga¬tory to the welfare of veterans, and therefore ipso fact to theUniversity itself, veterans should speak out boldly and in nouncertain terms.They should do so in the knowledge that “an island ofhappy, educated, and prosperous veterans in the middle of asea of discontent is not possible.” ^Qlljtrmui Harnan Shop TalkAbout theMAROON(Criticism of newspapers is a fa-varite American indoor pastime.Editors of THE MAROON, not ex¬empt, are showered weekly bysuggestions and criticism.

CRITICISM: THE MAROON •im¬balances* its news coverage in that itgives too little space to those items inwhich ••everyone is interested’*—dances, dormitory parties, and the like.In selecting and in featuring thestories which it does, THE MA¬ROON operates on the principlethat significance and imp>ortanceare the most fundamental criteriain news display. A dance or a tea-hour is not so important as forexample a critical housing short¬age, the abolition of a degree, oran important lecture series. Thefact that Hymie Scheufinger’s or¬chestra will perform is simply notso important .as a major addressby the Chancellor. The dance storytherefore will hot be awarded thespace or display of other types ofnews.Nor are activities which affectlarger numbers of persons neces¬sarily more important. Everyoneis required to register; THE MA¬ROON does not issue an extrawhen registration dates are re¬leased.But this is not to infer that so¬cial activities will in any way beexcluded from THE MAROON. Onthe contrary, in recent weeks thepaper inaugurated a society col¬umn for the express purpose /Ofpublishing such news. THE MA¬ROON wants the list of club pled¬ges and after-game dance details,but it is not omniscient. The staffis limited and it cannot possibly“cover” a huge University campuscompletely in an eight-pageweekly.Many publicity chairmen as¬sume the position that “THE MA¬ROON should find out; if it doesn’twe’ll protest afterwards.” Such astand may be human, but it won’tget a club meeting announcementin Friday’s edition.THE MAROON invites the co¬operation of publicity represen¬tatives of all campus activities andurges that they contact the Man¬aging or News Editor early eachweek in person or by telephone.THE MAROON offices are opendaily from 1 to 5 p. m.

Student OpinionWriter Urges UCQuit the Big 10MAROON 'Equivocal' On Covenants—AYDTo the Editor of the CHICAGO MAROON:We of American Youth for Democracy welcome the anti-discrim¬ination plank in the platform of THE MAROON which reads: “Anall-out campaign by a socially conscious, politically alert studentbody to quash any racial or religious intolerance practiced in or bythe University.” Supporting this plank in its issue of January 11THE MAROON went on to say, “This warrants a full measure ofsupport.”We contrast this excellent statement of intentions with the edi¬torial of February 1, where the MAROON echoes University Vice-President Munnecke in apologizing for and in a sense justifyingrestrictive covenants (agreements limiting residential areas to whitesf.The latter editorial states: “. . . Restrictive covenants are asymptom rather than a cause of racial intolerance. We will notsolve the problem by the eradication of such agreements, desirableas such eradication may be. . . , We aie not Utopians, but until suchtime as man is sufficiently educated and enlightened to realize thathis neighbor’s color or his beliefs are not valid on moral grounds ordistinctions, the problem of intolerance will not be resolved.”This editorial betrays a lack of understanding of the relationshipbetween intolerance and discrimination, and of the causes of both.Intolerant ideas and discriminatory practices are fostered by reac¬tionary vested interests for the purpose .of pitting one group againstanother and stirring up fear and hate among the people. This givesthe reactionary interests the bargaining advantage which a unitedgroup always has over a divided one, and at the same time divertsthe people]s attention from the true causes of their insecurity, whichis the basis of their fears. Discriminatory practices are indeed oneof the^ most potent means used to foster intolerance. Restrictivecovenants segregate the Negroes from the whites, making it impos¬sible for both groups to discover their similarities and communityof interest. Restrictive covenants prevent the very education andenlightenment which the editorial says are necessary to solve theproblem. The removal of restrictive covenants is a necessary condi¬tion to the elimination of intolerance.The University has long enjoyed a reputation for liberality andleadership in social thought. But it cannot maintain such a reputa¬tion and continue to participate in restrictive covenants. There is noreason to suppose, as the MAROON does, that abolition of restrictivecov^bnants would “pave the way for an early decline and perhapseven the ultimate collapse of the institution (i.e., the University)itself.” This refers presumably to the assumption that the value ofUniversity owned property and consequently its income would de¬cline if Negroes were permitted to live an it. The deterioration ofthe Negro neighborhoods is caused, not by the Negroes who livethere, but by the overcrowding which is due to restrictive covenants,and by landlords’ neglect which is made possible by these agr^e-ments, which force the Negroes to pay high prices for poor housing,since they are unable to live anywhere else. Thus an effect ofdiscrimination is used to justify its cause.The A.Y.D. opposes the equivocal position of THE MAR(X)N onthis issue. We demand that the University refuse to participate furtherin restrictive covenants.JACK KACKMAN.Executive Chairman, American Yoath for Democrary.To the Editor of THE CHICAGO MAROON:Sports may not play a very prominent role on the Chicago pro¬gram. Yet, as long as you are bringing up the issue of campus activ-ties, it might be worthwhile to take a quick look at the athleticpicture as it now exists. I don’t propose to go into the football issue,about which I know nothing. I’ll stick to the little I’ve seen in thetwo months I’ve been a*student here.Why is Chicago playing Big Ten basketball? Prestige? Hide-boundcontracts? Tradition? As anyone can see, in one visit to the fieldhouse,this Chicago team has no business playing in the sort of competitionthe Big Ten affords. And it’s not a temporary condition, either.Unless the University actively encourages outstanding athletes tomatriculate here, it will never be able to compete on equal or evenquasi-equal footing with the nine other members of the WesternConference.Why not give up the big-name Big Ten schedule and tackle teamimore in Chicago’s class? It’s not an insult to the College, nor to the(Continued on Page 5)Let’s Take the Long Way Home • • •THE CHICAGO MAROON Page iFriday, February 15, 194b’Out of the NightHorror of UndergroundTold By Students HereBy CHARLOTTE KERNWord that their mother may soon arrive from Greece tojoin them is the most exciting news Helen, 24, and HandaZacharias, 22-year-old repatriates, now students at the Uni¬versity of Chicago in the Division of the Humanities and formerpublishers of LIBERTY, the secretly mimeographed underground newspaper of Paen—thePanhellenic Union jf FightingGreek Youth—have received sincetheir return to the United Stateslast August, after a thirteen yearabsence.The sisters and their brother,John, were leaders of Paen duringthe Italian and German occupation“We didn’t have time to worry,”Helen began. “We even used fiveyear old children to carry messagesv/hen we had to. Always, we hadto scheme against the Nazis, figureout a way to eat and there wasschool work to be done.” TheZacharias girls were students ofArchaeology at the University ofAthens.Kept Up SpiritHanda continued, “We’d slip ournewspapers under people’s doorsand sometimes the door wouldswing open in our faces. We neverknew whether it would be Ger¬man or Greek to greet us!”About 600 to 1,000 newspaperswere put out daily and the equip¬ment was ancient. News via theB.B.C. from London was passed tothe girls who printed and distrib¬uted it. When news of the Allieswas very bad or ink and papersupplies were low, the girlsdressed In blue or black clothingand went out on the streets, des¬pite an eleven o'clock curfew, andpainted cheery signs on buildingsand sidewalks in order to keepthe people informed.“I wanted to bring one of mypaint splattered dresses, but mypounds had to include my books,”Handa said. The girls’ motherwho is not an American citizenyet, was not allowed to come hereat the same time with her childrenwho were born in Indianapolis,Indiana. The sisters said they hadnot expected to come to Americaso soon after the war, but werehastened in their indecision by thethreats of Greek Communists, whosaid they would hang them fromthe flagpole in front of the Uni¬versity of Athens.Tell Torture Methods“We are Nationalists,” Helenexplained, “but not Royalists.

In the be¬ginning the Communists were forliberty too. It’s all mixed up andit’s hard to explain when youhaven’t gone through all the vari¬ous phases of the war.”Helen, in addition to her manyactivities, was also a lecturer inhi^ry to students during the timethat the University of Athenswas closed. Handa disclosed, “Iwas sick when Helen was doinglectures. We all had bad stomachsand eighty percent of the studentshad tuberculosis. Sometimes wewould go out and pull up bunchesof grass to eat. After four yearsof greens it's hard to eat meat. Ieven forgot the difference in tastebetween lamb and chicken.”The Bulgarians were worse intheir treatment than the Germans.They branded all the people ofMacedonia in order that they couldnot escape to the more “gentle”German rule. “But the Germanswere bad enough! The worst thingwas putting hot eggs under yourarm or pulling out fingernails.One of our students was torturedbeyond recognition,” Helen ex¬claimed.Stories Are True“They tried to take universitywomen to Germany to work in the ammunition plants and the fellowswere taken to reduce our ranks.I took my group and marcheddown to protest. They sent outfire engines and sprayed water onus and knocked us down with theforce of the water. It was Januaryand I had to walk home withsoaking clothes. Three miles wasnever so long!”Handa remembers December 7,1941, not only because Americajoined the war, but also, becauseit was the last day street cars ranin Athens. She was “booted”, offa car by a German soldier whenshe asked him to move and let herget off. Kind Greeks tossed herparcels after her.Mother Was Worried“We worried our mother somuch,” Handa remarked. “Shewould_call out in the night to usto see if we were there or offworking. It was at times like thesewhen Johnnie would be outwrecking things from the stockmarket exchange (to keep infla¬tion down) or photographing Ger¬man positions.”The Zacharias sisters are resi¬dents of Gates Hall and shocktheir friends with their under¬ground adventures. “We just don’ttalk anymore,” Helen concluded.“Nobody believes anything so hor¬rible could be anything but an¬other Greek myth. But we havetangible evidence like the awardmother got from the British Gov¬ernment for concealing a Britishsoldier. It will be good to see heragain.”Student Opinion(Continued from Page 4)players, to suggest that they’re not fit for the big-time basketball.They’re not, and they know it. So do we. Basketball is a good gameand a good spectator sport, but not as it’s played these days in theChicago fieldhouse. The quintet I’ve seen in action here is a goodone, but it’s not in a class with any other team in the Conference.Maybe it’s too late to do anything about next season’s schedule.Maybe there are sound reasons for playing Big Ten basketball. Idon’t see them. There are a lot of good colleges—such as Butler,Oberlin, Illinois Tech, Loyola, North Central, Drake, and dozensof others—with whom Chicago could compete on relatively equalterms. Some of them are on the schedule already. Some of the BigTen teams should stay on the schedule (and not necessarily theweaker ones). But it’s just plain foolish to make a fetish of playinga full Big Ten schedule in basketball.In and around Philadelphia, I covered a good many so-called“small-time” basketball games for city and college papers. They weregood games, evenly contested. Most of the smaller schools play a fewgames each season against the big universities and generally losethem by decisive margins. But they don’t play a majority of theirschedule against teams clearly out of their class.Usually small schools can’t or don’t want to proselyte players.Chicago doesn’t either. That’s the criterion on which a schedule hasto be drawn up, if the student body and the players themselves areto enjoy a truly comi)etitive, lively season in any given sport.If you wish to carry the case further, the same situation appliesto the swimming team. But it isn’t swimming against Ohio State or' - '-'here it would not, indeed could not, take better thanautomatic third places. The swimming squad doesn’t feel slightedor hurt because it’s not competing against top-flight swimming stars.The swimmers want to compete against swimmers of approximatelytheir abilities. They want meets that, even though they may not bewon, will be relatively close.Chicago has no outstanding Swimmers or basketball players. Butthe basketball schedule, as it shapes up this year, tends to kill anyincentive a team might have. This same team might be playing .750ball or better if it were playing in its own league.FRED ROSEMAN, 5625 University Ave.UC Boasts 8 NobelWinners in 54 YearsAddition of Professors EnricoFermi and Harold C.

DeAMICISAn exhibition of paintings and watercolors by three out¬standing American artists is on current display in GoodspeedHall.These paintings by Maurice Prendergast and watercolorsby Charles Demuth and Carl Kahler provide a selection ofsubjects that will appeal to all artlovers. Ranging from extremeabstraction to precise representa¬tion, this exhibition offers a va¬riation of style, color, methods andtechniques that is seldom found ina single showing.The works of Prendergast, bor¬rowed from the Kraushaar Galler¬ies of New York, include paintingsof people out-of-doors and at play,and paintings of the many placeshe visited. His travels were ex¬tensive and he shows great skillin picturing the peoples and coun¬tries. He spent several years inVenice and consequently his de¬scription of the waterways and thegondolas of that city is effective.Genius in WatercolorPrendergast’s use of oil is pleas¬ant, but only in his watercolor canone get the true genius of thisartist. His depiction of movingfigures is suggestive of volumeand activity, but somehow Pren¬dergast loses the vitality necessaryto figures by the consistent useof short, heavy strokes. Too manyof his paintings at once irritatethe eye.The watercolors of Charles De¬muth are abstract in a sense, forhe uses his own ideas for repre¬sentation, creating both realisticand idealistic moods. One of hispaintings is a vaudeville singer.On this canvas he uriconsciouslyimparts the futility and helpless¬ness of the performer. His bestworks are of still life, but one can¬not help smiling at his abundantuse of eggplants for study. He in¬fuses his vegetable and plant pic¬tures with depth of color, givingthem a lifelike appearance inthree dimensions.Kahler Shows Modern TendenciesCarl Kahler, a Chicago product,shows more modern tendenciesthan either Demuth or Prender¬gast. His works are both abstractand representative, but it is ob¬vious that Kahler is most pro¬ficient in his use of colors. Hisdepth and clear lines, togetherwith the beautiful use of blends,are impressive. If and When . . .Pre-Fobs AreStill 'Coming'still looking for a place to live,Mr. Ex-GI? The University maysoon have a possible answer toyour housing woes if Old Sol andthe routing agents will cooperate.One hundred ninety pre-fabri-cated homes are being built espe¬cially for UC veterans and will beerected probably by the spring ’quarter at 60th and Drexel, 59thand Maryland, and at 60th andGreenwood.The weather and inability tochart travel schedules for trucksdelivering the homes has tempo¬rarily stymied the project. Butofficials congidently believe thegreen light will be flashed soon.Houses Completely EquippedThe dwellings are governmentsurplus structures, to be obtainedfrom ordnance works at Badger,Wis., and Richmond, Ind. Of pre¬fabricated plywood construction,they are one and two bedroom-kitchen - bathroom units. Theyhave electricity, running water,cooking facilities, and coal andoil heat. Though they are quitesmall, they should be an improve¬ment over park benches, store¬rooms, and the like.At present the plots are still be¬ing laid out, but it is believed thatthe first units will arrive nextwfeek. It is very uncertain whenthey will be ready for occupancydue to possible labor jdifficulties.The units are to be shipped bytrucks which are too large to passunder viaducts, thus necessitatinglong and devious shipping routes.However it should not take toolong.There is one slight hitch to allthis. You will need a wife andsome little ones to be eligible forone of the homes. So, if you wanta room badly enough. . . .William WambaughThe Critic's Corner . . .Ralph Kirkpatrick, harpsichordist, and Alexander Schneider,violinist, gave another proof of artistic integrity in their polishedbalanced, and carefully matched performances together lastFriday in Mandel Hall. Opening the second of their two appear¬ances with Mozart’s Sonata in FMajor, K. 376, they wore theirway meticulously and almostfaultlessly through the work. Un¬happily, in the middle movement,the andante, the violin with itsacompanying figure blanketed theharpsichord stating the first sub¬ject.Darius Milhaud’s new Sonatafor violin and harpsichord provedto be a work of true French deli-cacy^^ breathed through with thespirit of Gallic irony. The work,though well conceived in terms oftwo such delicate instruments, hadin its finale something pungentand biting which renders Milhaudprovocative of repeated hearings;Schneider played Mozart’s Con¬certo No. 5 in A Major, K. 219,as his solo, with the UniversityChamber Orchestra conducted byHans Lange. He gave a straight¬forward interpretation of this run-of - the - mill work. Kirkpatrickplayed a spritely performance ofHaydn’s Harpsichord Concerto inD. His performance was more in¬spired than Schneider’s; it hadmany moments when it sparkled.It was helped because some of theorchestra was on pitch most of thetime, whereas in the Mozart thelapses from pitch were continuousand painful to the ear.The University Orchestra hasbeen sinking lower for the last two years; but last Friday’s perform¬ance was the lowest point it hasstruck, since 1944. At no time ineither Haydn or Mozart did thehorns produce two consecutivenotes on pitch, nor were the tonesproduced satisfactorily. The oboeswere seldom much better. Thestrings, which managed to stay onpitch in Haydn, were off pitchmost of the time in Mozart. Theorchestral attack was sloppy andrough, intonation was crude andharsh.It seems to me, in view of theresults achieved, that the Univer¬sity would do well to employ someone other than Hans Lange as con¬ductor of the University orches¬tras. Lange does not seem to in¬spire confidence in the studentsnor to be cn rapport with them.One may also ask why DesireDefauw, the Symphony’s MusicalDirector, has never been invitedto lead the University Orchestra,although he is listed as the Uni¬versity’s Adviser in Music. Hispredecessor, Frederick Stock, inthe same capacity, was quiteubiquitous on University orches¬tral programs. One wonderswhether the students in the or¬chestra are not the victims of thefeud raging elsewhere betweenDefauw supporters and the Lange-ites.THE CHICAGO MAROONPage 8 Friday, February 15, 1948David Sander on:VETERANSOmar Bradley DefendedAs Honest and CapableVeterans' AdministratorIn rapid-fire succession last week, John Stelle,National Commander of the American Legion calledon Congress to oust Gen. Omar Bradley from hispost as head of the Veterans Administration; a_Legion Post immediately called for the, ousting ofStelle; every other recognized veterans organizationcame forward to back Bradley; and a new suspectin the Degnan case took quick precedence overthis news on the front page.The Veterans Administration is both doctor andnurse to our sick and wounded; it is that agencythat determines our pensions and sends us ourchecks: it will be our Rock and our Salvation inill-health for the rest of our lives. We ought toknow the facts: is the VA doing its job or isn’tit? Last week fifteen million veterans looked anx¬iously for an answer.Almost since its inception after the last war, theVA was a political catch-all for graft, a roost forsyndics, a favorite bureau for crats. For nearlytwenty-five years this community of national un¬health was permitted to exist unchallenged, notablyby the American Legion which was only too wellaware of the bad conditions but declined to admittJiem publicly. Why? Probably because for twenty-five years the legion w'as able to “use” the VAfor its own purposes and to control its policy. Hada cleanup been made and a new regime installed—as would inevitably happen when the fa^'ts wereexposed—the Legion was threatened that it will loseits hold on this important ‘auxiliary.”» In 1945 the upset came, and journalistic hell broke loose. After newspapers and the newerveterans groups had blasted at the rotten founda¬tions of the VA, only'then did the Legion makeits “unfavorable report.” When Hines was replacedby Omar Bradley, in September of 1945, the Legionsmiled brightly . . . and waited. Would Bradleyfall “into line” or would he be independent?Omar Bradley inherited one of the nations big¬gest headaches. The small and decrepit facilitiesof the VA had not been enlarged since the end ofthe last war. The staff was grossly undermannedeven for paperwork, and there were almost nodoctors and psychiatrists to be found. In Septem¬ber—four months ago—Bradley set to work. Ittakes time, and Bradley says so himself, but inthose four months he has enlarged the VA enor¬mously and is still increasing its size and effective¬ness. Bradley’s biggest job was to correct the mis¬takes made before him, errors which the veteransorganizations had done nothing to correct. It isonly since January that he has been able to callhis work “real progress.” This is not History—this is one month ago.Last week the Legion felt its postwar strengthwaning, and decided that it ought to Act. John, Stelle, former Lt.-Governor of Illinois, wanted alarge veterans hospital at Decatur. Bi'adley saidNo. Stelle, sensing a showdown, decided to takethe first step, and the errors of his step are clearnow even to him.Bradley is not a “company man”, Bradley is asincere and honest worker with a tremendous pub¬lic responsibility; and Legion or no Legion, hewants to get his job done properly and well.One can go through the entire list of veteransorganizations: not one agrees with Stelle of theLegion. The VFW and the important newer groupshave vociferously upheld Bradley’s position. Itis doubtful whether even the Legion—now veryquiet—agrees with Stelle; certainly its rank-and-file doesn’t.General Omar Bradley was a fine soldier; hehas proved an able and emmineptly satisfactoryhead of our Veterans Administration. Let us givehim our complete and whole-hearted co-operationin the work that lies before him, work that willcontinue in fairness, excellence and independence. Most U. of C.

February 15, 1940 THE CHICAGO MAROON Page tFineTimeIt appears that'several schoolsn the Big Ten have lately becomeigitated over the problem of GoodSportsmanship. There seems to bei movement spreading through the•onference to “do something” about No Winter for BdseballeirsBy DICK FINEIn the spring a young man’sfancy does not ligntiy turn tothoughts of baseball, according toJ. Kyle Anderson. It happens inthe winter.It started this year for the U.of C. men way back last monthwhen Coach Anderson issued thefirst call for varsity baseballaspirants to work out daily in thefield House, me fancy turnedmore and more with each succeed¬ing day of practice; several of the boys already threatened theweather man with bodily harm ifhe doesn’t produce an early spring.In the meantime the ball play¬ers must content themselves withsmashing down the walls of theField House every afternoon. Thebuilding is large enough to permiteverything but shagging fly balls,and a daily drill usually consists ofinfield practice, batting practice,and assorted pepper games.Though the 1946 schedule hasno games booked before the ^irst of April, Coach Anderson alreadyhas a pretty fair idea as to thekind of team Chicago will field.When talking about some of theboys oft the team, J. K. lights uplike a tilted pin-ball machine.Asked for a specific statementabout the squad, Anderson said,“We may not set the world onfire, but if the fellows really worktogether like a team, we’re apt tosurprise some of our opponents nolittle bit.”In former years anyone wno could show a varsity letter receiv¬ed for baseball was an almost auto*matic cinch to make the teamagain. This year some of thoseletter-men may well sit out theseason on the bench. Their com¬petition will serve to keep the restof the fellows on their toes atall times.Elecause of the pre-fabs beingconstructed on Greenwood Field,former home of the .Chicago dia¬mond, this year’s games will beplayed in Washington Park.U. High Bids forLeague Cage TitleBy FRED HARTSTONEWhen North Park squares off against Todd in the FieldPToiise next Wednesday at 7 p.m., the twelfth annual renewalof the Private School Basketball Tournament will be officiallystarted. University High drew a bye in the first round anddoes not play until Thursday afternoon.There will be three games the ' ^the examples of poor sportsman¬ship that have reputedly croppedup recently.The most amusing part of thewhole thing is that the movementstarted at the University of Iowa.Chicago fans who saw the Maroon-Hawkeye clash in the Field Housea few weeks ago will undertsandthe humor in the situation. It issmall wonder that anyone who hasbeen watching Iowa play all yearshould become concerned over theproblem of sportsmanship.Those in back of the Movementhave offered several proposalswhich they feel will promote GoodSportsmanship. The one they fancymost would set up a Good Sports¬manship trophy to be awarded tothe school most deserving it.Just how the right school is tobe picked is a point about whichthey aren’t quite ^sure. A commit¬tee would be appointed to pickthe most worthy school. This com¬mittee is to be made up of students,athletes, officials, coaches, phil¬osophers and all Hottentots whodrink milk.It’s not that we don’t believe inGood Sportsmanship; no good sportshould be without it. it's justthat our disillusionment cameearly in life; few championshipteams we know of got there be¬cause of what the poets call “fairplay.” Meade TrailsUndefeatedDodd SquadMeade House becam^ sole pos¬sessor of second place in the Col¬lege Intramural League by defeat-^g Coulter Tuesday night, 21-15.In the opening contest first-placeDodd trounced Mathews, 30-11.The inconsistent Coulter squad,a pre-season favorite, lacked muchof the precise power that sparked‘its recent record performanceagainst Chamberlain. The fast,shifty Meade attack proved toomuch for this edition of the “Coul-terrors” and provided a constantlead throughout the game.“The “Meadeors” gave BobRudolph ample opportunity toscore 12 points from center andwrest the lead from Coulter’sKarler in the race for individualscoring hondrs. Karler scored 6points and now trails Rudolph,41 to 46.The schedule for next week:TUESDAY:Linn vs. MeadeDodd vs. SalisburyTHURSDAY: ✓ J.

The finalscore showed 89 points for theMaroons while the other twoteams trailed far behind with 26and 16 respectively.The cinder-men go after theirsecond straight win when they runIowa at Iowa City this Saturday.The Hawkeye squad has been con¬siderably strenghtened by the re¬turn of Lee Farmer who scored8014 points for Iowa in J942. Inthat year he won the 60-yd. dashin the Big Ten indoor meet in:06.3 and set an indoor recordwhich stiU stands in the broadjump with a leap of 23' 914".The only serious resistance thatthe U. of C. boys encounteredSaturday was in the field eventswhere Morton of North Centralhurled the 16-lb. shot 40' 5" for afirst, and Hemmer’s pole-vault of11 feet was sufficient to take 5points.

Proceeds go to the Red Cross.Ten Teams En|,eredThere are ten teams entered inthis year’s tournament; NorthPark, Todd, University High,Latin, Harvard, Christian, Con¬cordia, F. Parker, Luther, andWheaton.If we may take the word ofCoach Joe Stampf, the tournamentpromises to be a real thriller. Theten teams are evenly matched,and any one of them is capableof copping the first place cupwith a close fight in the offingfor the other three. Stampf givesLuther the not as most likelywinner with North Park, this year’sregular schedule champion, a tightsecond. .Jay-Vees Given ChanceThe- local junior-varsity, whichplaced fourth in the league stand¬ings this year as well as taking thesame position in the last tourna¬ment, figures to be right up amongthe leaders, since it defeated Luth¬er in regular competition.Coach Stampf has hopes that theField House will become thepermanent home of the tourna¬ment. The turn-out last year re¬sulted, for the first time, in a sub¬stantial profit which ended as agift to the Red Cross in the.amountof $500 dollars. It is hoped that asizable fund will be realized thisyear also.An interesting sidelight: themeet will actually be two meets;Chicago and C.T.C. are entered ina nation-wide telegraphic meet.The times of the individual raceswill be telegraphed to the Midwestsection headquarters at Purduewhere they will be compared withother college meet results. Win-StarvedQuintet OffTo MichiganBy MURRAY HARDINGJudging by the score of the lasttwo games, the Maroons are eitherbecoming stronger defensively, ortheir opposition is giving every¬one in the stands a chance to play.A happy average of only 49 pointshas been attained by Minnesotaand Ohio State in the most recentChicago games (a far cry, onenotes, from 66.7 per game).Unfortunately, the Maroons’ av¬erage has not increased propor¬tionately, nor has their shootingpercentage been headline material.The most recent figures revealthat Chicago hit on only 8 out of56 trys from the field against OhioState, for a rather poor averageof .143.Freeark Scores 12Ray Freeark racked up 12 ofChicago’s 25 points in that,game.That is the highest individual to¬tal reached by any Maroon sinceDeGraw’s phenomenal total of 18in the first Minnesota game. Otheramazing aspects of the battle in¬clude the fact that Chicago usednine players in the contest. Thereweren’t even nine men out topractice two weeks ago, countingthe spectators.Maroons Meet MichiganThe Maroons travel yp to AnnArbor today for their second gamewith the Wolverines.
