Chairman of the Depart¬ment of Anthropology, announceda spokesman this week. All IFCmein hers, he continued, feel thatthe sore spot of discrimination isnot an expression of their truefeelini>s.Members Support PolicyThe new action, first of severalreform measures decided on byIP'C in consultation with its ad¬visor, has the full support of allmembers, sparked by the influxof l eturning veterans who broughtwith them new and broader viewsacquired as a result of their war¬time experiences, he went on.Revoke Spring ClauseLast Spring’s revision of theInter-Fraternity Council’s constitu¬tion revoked a clause prohibitingany fraternity from joining unlessit had a house.(This clause had effectivelyprevented the admission of anyNegro fraternity, since these donot maintain houses on campus asa result of restrictive covenantsin the University area.)This action, however, failed tohrim; about the desired effect ofbroadening the scope of IFC^ mem¬bership. The latest move on thepart of Council leaders is aimed atachieving this result through ac¬tively inviting participation by allexisting fraternities and by allsocial fraternities which may begranted charters in the future.Your Opinion?In a drive to determinecampus opinion on libraryconditions at the Univer¬sity, the Inter-organizationalCouncil has placed sugges¬tion boxes at key spots onthe Quadrangles. Sugges¬tions have poured in, theCommittee reports, and thosewhich seem most pertinentwill be acted upon. Mean¬while, the Committee urgesthose who have not contrib¬uted suggestions to do so.

Metcalf Rips MAROONEditorial—"Tactless"By DICK FINEA proposal to replace Chicago in the Big Ten conference be¬cause of the “athletic ineptness” of the Maroons will be enter¬tained at a conference meeting in Chicago March 8 and 9, theUnited Press association reported this week.Chicago’s presence in the league, it is contended, ’throws thechampionship race out of bal¬ance and makes a fair settlementof the championship impossible.Chicago founded the Big Ten andconference rules prohibit suspen¬sion of a member except for majorrule violations.Metcalf Criticizes EditorialMeantime, labeling it ‘ as bothtactless and in error, T. NelsonMetcalf, head of the University ofChicago athletic department, in aninterview with this reporter sever-ly criticized an editorial which ap¬peared in last week’s MAROON.The editorial, written by MAROONeditor Abe Krash, advocated thatChicago drop out of the WesternConference in athletics.Metcalf objected not so much tothe general conclusion of the edi¬torial with which he implied hefelt a certain amount of sympathy,but rather to some of the chargesKrash made in regard to subsidiza¬tion of athletes at other institutionsin the Big Ten.Krash stated last week that Chi¬cago’s poor showing in intercollegi¬ate competition could be traced toiii poiicy of honesty in dealingwith incoming athletes. Otherschools, including those of theWestern Conference, he contended,attract a great number of provedathletes by offering them scholar¬ships, soft jobs, and other benefits.Terming these statements com¬pletely erroneous and all too aptto impair relations between Chi¬cago and other schools in the con¬ference, Metcalf insisted that theBig Ten has led all other collegesin keeping out the professionalathlete. It forbids athletic scholar¬ships as well as out-right subsidi¬zation, and it maintains an alert detective force to see that theserules are not violated.Claims Big Ten HonestRather than relaxing its vigi¬lance, the Western Conference, ac¬cording to Metcalf, is actually be¬coming more stringent. Since 1944the rule forbidding college coachesto approach high school stars hasbeen rigidly enforced.The head of the physical edu¬cation department blames Chi¬cago’s hapless position in athleticson two factors, neither of whichhas anything to do with “profes¬sional athletes.”U.

WillkkToward More FraternityA genuine move towards democracy and free¬dom became part of campus history this week,when the I-F Council voted unanimously toadmit all fraternities at the University to mem¬bership. It is assumed that the one Negrogroup—Kappa Alpha Psi—will accept the res¬olution, apply for membership, and soon besitting at I-F sessions with its white fraters.^If KAP bacomes a member of I-F Council,fhe fraternity men on campus will soon findthemselves very much Involved in what wecoll the "problem of democracy" (whichshould not be called a problem since thereIs really so little of it). Basically, It Is therespect and decency man has for man. Theorganized brotherhood of fraternity has bythis move recognized the brotherhood of man,although there is no one who feels this to beo step towards black membership In whitefraternity, or white membership in black.The ten white groups in I-F Council all havefraternity houses; Kappa Alpha Psi has none,nor will it have so long as the Chicago legalcode permits that Negroes be excluded fromresidence in "white" areas-^areas which by re¬strictive landowner covenants cover four-fifthsof the city, and which are tacitly upheld by thelargest holder of real estate on the south side,the University of Chicago.The fen white groups In I-F Council mayhold their dances at any city hotel, almostall of which bar Negroes. One thinks, too,of the many Inter-fraternity affairs to whichNegroes have hitherto been excluded by rea¬son of non-membership. What will happen now that I-F has made its decision is onlythe beginning, not the end, of that decision.The I-F Council may be taking a bigger steptowards democracy than it realizes. We hopethat they intend to follow through. Too longthe Negro has been on the serving end of thepunch bowl, and it may be difficult for somefraters to accept him wearing the same kind ofevening clothes and being the same kind of aman.Porhaps, however, I-F Council has simplymade a gesture, to mollify post-war reactionto the "un-democracy" of fraternities. Per¬haps I-F members feel that the Negro willnaturally fall into his "place" and will beaccepted as a gentleman only long enoughto make a gentleman's agreement not to ap¬pear at parties or dances, and to show upmerely for photographs of I-F board. Wheth¬er this Is a gesture or a real, palpable thingis known to no one—not to I-F, nor its mem¬bers nor to the men of KAP who will join ingood faith, faith being all they have had un¬til now. .But the will is here, and the I-F Council hasmade a sincere attempt to do the right thing.Democracy has been placed thereby on theforge, and it will be shaped by the hammeringsof Time. To the fellows of I-F Council whoare making democracy red-hot, alert to thehammer, we give you our highest hopes anddeepest gratitude. In an organization of broth¬ers you are making a real and a dynamic broth¬erhood. We will hope that you stand hard byyour decision—together!A Problem of EmphasisThe new emancipation proclaimed by the University for po¬litical clubs and Professor Wilton Krogman’s sudden resigna¬tion as adviser to the Anti-Discrimination Committee have pro¬jected campus liberal groups back into the spotlight. In recentweeks there has been a "boomlet" in the activities of the under¬graduate politicos. They have united in supporting labor; they pick¬eted rabble-rouser Gerald L. K. Smith; they have launched severalseminars on campus, open to all students, on social and political issues.The University’s pronouncement of a "hands off policy” should begreeted with approval. It is long overdue. Political clubs cannot existunder heavy-handed censorship which demands an accounting of everymove. The University does not have the prerogative to exercise suchcensorship over any student activity.Political clubs confront a much more fundamental dilemma, how¬ever; should they concentrate their fire on campus issues or should theybe concerned with problems in the community? As students their fun¬damental concern is with the campus, but as citizens or prospectivevoters, students have a responsibility and an obligation to the com¬munity. Campus political clubs have attempted, although not too suc¬cessfully, to synthesize both.The emphasis has been overwhelmingly on external questions, butthere are campus issues which cry out for intelligent consideration andwhich demand the initiative and ingenuity of politically-adroit students.Proximity is an asset. Campus liberal groups would do well to takea more active hand in burning campus questions, while maintainingsensitivity to the significant political, social, and economic questionsof our time.Qlljtraij0 liarnnnThe University of Chicago Official Student Newspaper1945 ACP All-AmericanPublished every Friday during the academic year by THE CHICAGOMAROON, an independent student organization of the University of Chicago.Abe Krash, Editor-in-Chief(On Temporary Leave of Absence)Ward J.

Cecil Smith said that Irecommended that the Universitysack Hans Lange and hire DesireDefauw in his place. What I real¬ly said was ". . . the Universitywould do well to employ some oneother than Hans Lange as con¬ductor of the University orches¬tras.” I did not endorse M. Defauwfor the position. Mr. Smith hasconfused the above statement withtwo subsequent facts in thecolumn: (1) Desire Defauw, theUniversity’s Adviser in Music, hasnever been invited to conduct theUniversity orchestra; (2) his pred¬ecessor in the same capacity, Fred¬erick Stock, appeared frequentlywith the University orchestra.To Mr. Odenkirchen I say thatI should be happy to write reviewsof the type he desires, should hebe able to convince the editors ofthe MAROON that the averagelength of a music review shouldbe not 400, but 4,000 words. I haveoften felt the need of space for de¬tailed analysis, particularly of ad¬vanced works like Hindemith’sLudus Tonalis. Such space is notto be had in an eight page paper.The London Times is the onlypaper I know whose critical col¬umns can be as long as necessary.I must often sacrifice qualifyingwords to brevity. I admire amateureffort greatly; in the orchestra’srecent debacle, however, there wasinvolved an appearance on a pro¬fessional program as accompani¬ment to professional artists.

Krash, veteran of six in¬tramural basketball games with some exposure to a liberal educationconsiders himself an authority on matters pertaining to physical edu¬cation, a position that takes most men a lifetime to acquire. He alsoposes as a unique type of detective as he has arrived at numerousconclusions and generalizations without presenting one shred of evidence. In short, irresponsible Abe has delivered a lot of high .‘^ound'ing words, much personal opinion, and very few facts, resulting in aneditorial that may cause the University much embarrassmentThe Western Conference consists of ten of the nation’s outstandingschools—schools that do not exist as mere adjuncts to stadia or field-houses—schools that do not rise or fall with championship team? asKrash would lead us to believe, but schools whose primary purpo-^e isthat of education. The athletic directors of these schools are not crooksbut high minded men who believe in intercollegiate athletics as aneducational experience second to none found in classrooms 01 text¬books. The conference has been the strongest In the nation in safe-guarding the principles of amateurism on which the game was foundedNevertheless some greedy individuals have worked their way into theorganization. These men, whose characters are not foreign to otherfields of endeavor, looked on .sport from the commercial aspect. Toassume that they are in the majority is to go beyond the truth.There are some basic differences between Chicago and the other RigTen schools. Eight conference schools are state institutions, tuition isnegligible. All of the schools offer a degree in physical education Allof the schools are very large. In addition, all of the schools offer honorscholarships, which preclude academic failures from varsity competi¬tion. Under this system a proportional number of athletes arc at¬tracted. These men have varying interests; some may come from boilerfactories or coal mines—then it is fine that they will get a chance atan education. A few of them may be dummies staying in school be¬cause of athletic prowess alone—these are to be weeded out. In gen¬eral, however, varsity competition in the conference breeds a finei in¬dividual than the type Abe Krash portrays in his editorial.At Chicago one will find an entirely different situation. Tuition isnot negligible, the school is relatively small and there is no ciegreeoffered in physical education. Honor scholarships at Chicago are basedon academic excellence only, and give NO consideration to an indi¬vidual’s character, personality, or outside interests so important in thedevelopment of a well rounded individual. After Stagg’s departurethe caliber of Midway athletic teams deteriorated until at the outbreakof the war they had collapsed almost completely. During this declinesimultaneous changes were taking place in the University; changesthat so altered the complexion of our campus that Krash’s words"Once it became evident that championship team^ could not be as¬sembled from a normal student body, amateur athletics became asham,” ring false. What is normal about the student body at Chicago?As a whole it is a most abnormal group, and until the Honor Scholar¬ships are returned to their former basis it will remain so.If you think that Chicago could compete outside of the conference,let me remind you that fully manned teams are necessary to competeanywhere, and at Chicago, the swimming team must forfeit meets be¬cause of insufficient manpower, the wrestling team can never be sureuntil minutes before a meet whether or not it will have enough mento compete in all the matches, and the basketball squad played partof this season’s schedule with only seven men. This situation deservesmore than cynical comments from the editors and sports staff of theMAROON. Nor will the situation improve until some constructivesteps are taken. With the exception of veterans, few well rounded in¬dividuals are entering the College today. Prospective students arebeing frightened off by student.s who are more interested in picketingand rabble rousing than in their school and the normal activities con¬nected with it. Older students, disgusted by the situation, stay cmlybecause of he congested school situation. No, let us not try to salveour feelings by tearing down the other schools of the conference, butlet us analyze the situation at our own school carefully and determinethe real reasons why our teams are no longer outstanding, alwayskeeping in mind that valuable competitive experience and not cham¬pionships is our primary concern.

In 1943 the University was given ownership of theublication as a gift from Sears, Roebuck and Company.**The Encyclopaedia Britannica was founded by a “society of gen-tlemen** in Edinburgh, Scotland in1768 which makes it older than theUnited States. Three years laterthe first edition of Britannica, inthree calf-bound volumes, waspublished. In later years periodic j Britannica ordered paintings fromeditions were published in dhe well known artists to illustrate aBritish Isles until 1902 of contemporary American paint¬ings ever assembled.” One hun¬dred and sixteen paintings werechosen to represent the field, withan interesting history.

They are nowtouring museums throughout thecountry.Now, with the Britannica notonly renowned in educational cir¬cles, but also a going businessconcern, it and its parent educa¬tional institution look forward toyears of advance towards the goalepitomized in the phrase printedin every volume: “Let knowledgegrow from more to more, and thusin ibewhen thecompany was acquired by Ameri¬cans. In 1920 Sears acquired theproperty and retained it until this'lime. Now, as a 24-volume set ofmore than 161 miles of words,Britannica has been an increasing¬ly profitable venture.Faculty is Advisory StaffWhile the University ownsBritannica now, it takes no activepart in the operation of the com¬pany.

Rockefeller madeprovision in 1010 for the chapelwhich bears his name, he envis¬ioned it as “a dorainent featureof the University group.” His con¬cept was given form by the arch¬itect, Bertram G. Goodhue, andtoday not only dominates the cam¬pus but has become one of the“sights” of Chicago.The chapel, although of thegeneral design of European Goth¬ic cathedrals, was original withthe architect. If you’re interestedin figures, the chapel is an irreg¬ular cruciform building 265 feetlong and 120 feet wide. Thewalls are solid masonry and thefoundation piers extend to bed-,rock, 80 feet below the floor levelFor the benefit of Phy. Sci. stu¬dents who are invariably askedthis question, we include the factthat the tower is 207 feet high.Rich With SculptureIt has been ' said that no re¬ligious building in America is sorichly adorned with sculpture.Twenty-four free-standing and 53demi-figures relieve the generalseverity of the outside walls. Thesculpture, in general, is symbolicin character, designed to portraythe religious continuity of the pastwith the present. Subjects chosen,therefore, are drawn in part frommodern life, as well as from theBible and ancient times. In addi¬tion to the figures, many inscrip¬tions, chiefly from the King JamesVersion of the Bible, decorate thechapel walls.Inside, perhaps the most strik¬ing features are the high vaultedceiling of Gastavino tile, and thetall clerestory windows filled withsoftly tinted glass. The very sizeof the building is enough to in¬spire awe in the beholder. Thevisitor’s footsteps resound on thestone floors of the empty build¬ing, and it seems almost a sacri¬lege to talk above a whisper.The chapel normally seats about1,900, but on special occasions,such as Easter Sunday, or whenChancellor Hutchins speaks, 400extra chairs are placed in thechancel to accommodate thecrowds.Services of Many FaithsThe Sunday services are con¬ducted by the Rev. Charles W.Gilkey, Dean of the UniversityChapel. Outstanding representa¬tives of various faiths, however,including lay leaders as well asclergymen, are invited as speak-'crs. The speakers are chosen byth6 Board of Social Service andReligion, which has general over-for such choice items of her reper¬toire of the *20’s as “My HandyMan” and “Shake That Thing.”« « «Darnell Howard and a smallNew Orleans combination willii(M)re delightful to diaeovcT; open next Tuesday night at theClub Silhouette on Howard street.

It is the only rulingboard in the University which hasstudents as half its members.The Gothic beauty of the chapelhas attracted many visitors duringthe years. Before gas rationing,during the summer, up to 1,000people daily passed through thedoors. Even today, 20 to 50 vis¬itors take the regular Sunday tourof the carillon.Carillon of 72 BellsThe famous 72 bell carillon inthe tower was donated by John D.Rockefeller Jr. as a memorial tohis wife. The carillon is unsur¬passed as to number of bells andquality of tone. The largest bell,which strikes the hour, weighs36,926 lbs,, almost 1814 tons. Byway of contrast, the smallest bellweighs only 1014 lbs. The bellsare arranged in three stories inthe tower, and are reached by anarrow winding staircase of 272steps. Anyone who hqs taken atour of the carillon will testifythat it’s a long way up. There’san extensive view from the top,however, which seems worth theclimb.You’ve probably heard the bellssound the hour and th*e quarterhours, but perhaps you didn’trealize you were hearing Wagner’s“Parsifal Chime.” Four bells inthe carillnn snnnd . autOTYiatirallyevery 15 miutes. Carillon recitals are given by Frederick Marriottand occasional guest carillonneurson Sundays at 4 p.m. and Wednes¬days at 4:30 p.m.Presidents Buried ThereAt the end of the chancel, be¬hind the reredos in the northwall, niches have been built forthe ashes of the University pres¬idents and their wives. Threepresidents are now buried there.The chapel has two choirs, un¬der the d i r e ct i o n of GerhardSchroth. The new chancel choiris composed entirely of collegestudents, while the gallery choiris made up of divisional students,alumni, and a few interested out¬siders. The chancel' choir hasabout 45 voices, the gallery choirabout 65.

Chiefconcern of the Millers is the ado¬lescent Richard, who reads OscarWilde and Swinburne, much totheir distress. Some of this poetryhe managed to smuggle to his ladyfriend, Muriel, whose irate fatherhas discovered it. He insists thatthe two break off their friendship,and when Richard hears of this,he is of course desolate. With ro¬mantic abandon the boy goes outwith some loose women and comeshome riotously drunk. Happily,though, Muriel has not forsakenhim, and Mr. Miller finally helpsRichard straighten out his a flairs.To Act and Also Direct FatalIt’s no easy thing to act in aplay and direct it at the same lime,as Mr. Peisner tried to do, and in“Ah Wilderness” it proves fatal.When Mr. Peisner is not acting, thesigns of Mr. Peisner, director, aremuch in evidence, as they certainlyought to be. It isn’t that terriblybad performances were turned in,but that the people on stage man¬aged to make^ themselves just asdull as they could. The audiencedidn’t have much trouble fallinginto the general inertia.Mir. Peisner was an unassumingfather, who didn’t appear to havecommand of the situation when heshould have had. His interpreta¬tion was neither well-developednor real. Honore Singer, as hiswife, laboring as she was under,difficult circumstances, gave afteffective performance. James Hol¬land worked hard as Richard andtried to carry the burden of theevening, but couldn’t quite make it.He did a good job, but he had thewrong kind of support.Harroom Scene GoodOut of the^family daze the pres¬ence of Helen Auerbach as Mildre'dwas a welcome relief, Ronald Reif¬ler, Sonia Friedman, Merwyn Hay¬cock and Doris Natthews all gotalong well, and if they were un¬comfortable, they took pains tohide it. The barroom scene for¬tunately had some life, for whichwe can thank Sylvia Farnham, SidLevy, and Harold Donahue.As for the rest of the actors, suf¬fice to say that they need somemonths work in the ExperimentalTheatre before they can wiselyhazard another major production.The CritieW Corner.,(Continued from Page 4)larly in contrast to more brilliantevents like the all-Stravinsky pro¬gram of two seasons back.The music conformed to theSoviet dictum that song is whatmakes music “approachable byand comprehensible to the broadmasses of our (i.e., Soviet) audi¬ences,” In brief, it was banal, triv¬ial, vulgar^ and vulgar-minded,exactly what happens when artintended for mass-consumption isencased in a barbarian straitjacket. Those who thought theyhad heard Kabalevsky’s sixth prel¬ude before, have; it is Moussorg-sky’s “Great Gate at Kiev” setforth in the light of day, boldlyand without apology.

One would stand where the frontplatform of the trolley stopped and one nearthe rear, and they would call to each other either“OK Here” or “Nope” depending on what they sawinside. The fourth car to come along got an “OKHere” from both boys, yelling with glee they chargedup the steps and sailed off with it. I heard the boystelling the conductor: “We wasn’t gonna ride in nostreetcar with a nigger motorman.”A friend of mine was playing the piano softly inthe Ida Noyes Lounge one evening in February be¬tween the two great birthdays of that month. Sev¬eral pretty girls came in and began setting up card-tables and chattering about the Inter-Club bridgenight for which they were preparing the room. Incame several more girls carrying a cardboard statueof Lincoln and one of Washington, and set them onthe big table next to some cookie plates. They lookedswell, the girls said, all gathering around, and es¬pecially the one of Lincoln was well painted, even toinscriptions written underneath.My friend stopped playing the piano to ask one ofthe girls: “Lincoln, eh? Then these are the clubstliat admit members on their merit, regardless oftheir color?” “Oh, no” the club girls chorused. Andone of them said “You know, there’s a University ■ruling against it!” (There is no such ruling.—D.S.)My friend, so he tells me, took off his veteransbutton and put it in his pocket. “It looked soiled”he said. And on the way out, he noticed the wordson the Lincoln Statue: With Malice Toward None . ..This column last week devoted itself to a dispar¬agement of Clubs; that was Friday. On Sunday not a single Clubgirl showed up for the Veterans dancein Ida Noyes, at which during the previous fourweeks they had been willing and capable hostesses.This is no coincidence, especially since the writer ofthis column was until last week the chairman of thegroup sponsoring the dances.These three tales rankle in my breast; all threedisturbed me very much. They are, each of them,part of our interest in the Veteran and his Post-WaiAmerica. First, the little boys: they unearthed afeeling that lies deep and fallow in the rich bottom¬land of America’s consciousness (and conscience).Second, the bridge-party: it is the blossoming ofwhat might be hoped did not have roots in our Uni¬versity. Third, the frailty of a Club-girl attitude: itnot only lights the wires that hold our Club-manni¬kin stuffed and shining in the store-window, but itilluminates as well the Homecoming of the Hero, thebitter apple in Ma’s homemade apple picShould a veterans column be used for thesethings? If it devotes its space to the homily of GItalk and who got what decorations and the totalnumber of flying-hours our student-fliers flew, isthis its real purpose? I think not; rather, it must bethe attitude of veterans toward the society intowhich they are returned. And this column is writtenwith that intent, representing no other veteran thanmyself, knowing full well that there is not anotherveteran I can speak for, save by discussing stuff likethe GI Bill of Rights, which I will not do.What little or much of ourselves we were forced togive, we gave up toward our country, and not to-w’ard ourselves, or so I say. And that giving wastoward—didn’t you see the posters?—what Ameri¬ca might become, not what she was. It was not tokeep “them” from coming over here, either, el.se whydid we wait until attack before we moved? No,rather for the continued chance to change, to be¬come, in opposition to what we already knew existedas final “over there.”And so we can look at the little boys on the street¬car and say: America must change this; it is a“white” problem—it is my problem and yours. Wecan look at the bridge-party and say to the veteranwith his discharge pin looking soiled: Your war wasso that we—all of us—can change this; keep the faithyou once had; we have not failed you—yet.And to the Clubgirl who is anti-everything exceptantipasto, we can smile—and walk away.Veterans Needed forBlood Pressure TestBig Ten Meet(Continued from Page 1)not proportionally—most of thatincrease has been in the graduateschools where interest in athleticsis not as high, and where new en-rollees are not permitted to com¬pete in their first year in attend¬ance.No Phys. Ed. BlamedSecondly, Chicago has no schoolof physical education to attract theathletically-minded fellow. Met¬calf pointed out that well over halfthe letter-winners at other collegeswere enrolled in such schools.Students Voice OpinionsDesiring to obtain the views ofstudents around the campus, theMaroon conducted a poll asking thequestion: Should the University ofChicago drop out of the Big Ten?Opinions were voiced on both theaffirmative and the negative.Robert Vaughan, College: “Yes.The University of Chicago teamscannot compete with the schoolsthat have put college basketball ona professional basis, and scholasticrequirements here are not conduc¬ive tit full-time participation in acommercial scheme of that sort.”Dennis Currie, College: “Athletesaren’t drawn to the University ofChicago. We should keep basket¬ball, but on an intramural basis,or in a league in which our teammight be able to rise from thebottom.”Charles H. Swift, DivinitySchool: “If the U. of C. does nomore to advance athletics than itis doing at present, then it shoulddrop Big Ten competition. How¬ever, if the University realized thatsports are an important part of thetotal college set-up, and undertookto give them proper backing, thereis no reason why it could not pro¬duce teams that would stand highin Big Ten ratings.”Stanley Warsaw, Business school:“Certainly not! A winning or los¬ing team is not the basis for con¬ference competition. The playersare consistently doing their best,and they deserve the chance ofplaying Big Ten ball. Droppingbasketball would inevitably lead tothe abandoning of all other con¬ference athletics—and that wouldcertainly be too bad.”Jerry Solomon, Business School:“No. The Chicago team showeddefinite improvement as the seasonprogressed. Now that the JuniorVarsity means something, Chicagocan and will develop its own play¬ers and will not need to subsidize.”Ruth Browning, College: “No.We have not yet recovered fromthe effects of the war. This seasoncan’t tell the tale. Why not givepur team a fair chance next year?” Research to determine whetheror not there is any difference be¬tween the blood pressure findingsof combat veterans and non-com¬bat veterans will be instituted nextweek. Started by a former Armydoctor who became interested inthe problem of blood pressure un¬der combat conditions during his15 months in the ETC, the workwill continue until every campusveteran who volunteers for theone-hour test has been tested.Some veterans will be contactedby letter, but any veteran on cam¬pus may make an appointment fora blood pressure test. Veteransare urged, the letter says, to helpin this work. This may be done bytelephoning the Medical Clinic atBillings Hospital and making aone-hour appointment for any ofthe next several Wednesday af¬ternoons or Saturday mornings.The testing will be done indi¬vidually and no names will be re¬corded w’ith the results. A simpleblood-pressure reading will betaken ,and some few questions willbe asked. If any difference in theblood pressure findings is found,it may be possible to offer certainsuggestions to veterans in general to prevent any increase in this al¬teration that might come about inlater years.The Medical Clinic is on thesecond floor at Billings; the tele¬phone is MIDway 0800, Exten¬sion 575.Keppler Club LeaderNew officers to serve for thebalance of the year were electedby the International RelationsClub at a recent meeting..

Thereare still 1,300 veterans on cam¬pus. Our duty seems clear. AVCowes it to itself to get as many ofthese men and women as is pos¬sible into the organization for science, waspositive action implementing theAVC statement of intentions.”New Constitution AdoptedA new constitution, adopted af¬ter a two hour discussion, is pat¬terned after the national charterwhich stresses the following goals:action on thorough social and eco¬nomic security for all, active par¬ticipation of the United Statesin the United Nations Organiza¬tion and furtherance of worldpeace.Student Opinion(Continued from Page 4)and thereby starves himself to death in the process. What he needsis a healthy diet, not complete abstinence.Even your assumption with regard to universities that producewinning teams is hardly accurate. Most of these universities drawtheir material from their schools of physical education. These schoolstrain coaches and athletic instructors, the very largest percentage ofwhom find their way into the school system of the country to play animportant part in the education of our youth. Most of them do not be¬come professional performers. Giving them scholarships for excellencein their line is hardly different than doing so in any other field. I findit hard to believe that paying our scholars 80 cents an hour for readingaloud copy to be checked against proofs at the University Press variesmuch from the type of job which the typical collegiate athlete is as¬sumed to hold down. It is not even inconceivable that he might dojust as well at such a job as our people, the principal skill involvedbeing a rudimentary knowledge of the alphabet.Be that as it may, most athletes will probably bear you out to theextent that it is almost impossible to devote time to intercollegiateathletics and maintain a standard of excellence academically at thesame time. It seems, however, that in dropping her Big Ten program,Chicago has dropped campus activities as well.The emphasis on study means that more than likely most studentswill have to take their exercise when their studies will permit them.After all, your program which is assumed will take over with the com¬plete elimination of Chicago from Big Ten competition, is designed forthe mass- of your professional athletes, not the few. Yet if you willexamine the .yellow sheet “Sports Opportunities for Men” and pokeyour nose inside Bartlett gym as many times a week as some of usdo, you will find the situation is discouraging.Open hours on the swimming pool amount to an hour and a halfeach day, those times being at meal times. You can play basketball,of course—except that the three courts (30 men could play here) usual¬ly are not available as there are six men receiving instruction in bad¬minton, or the high school has a game or is practicing for one, orthese same youngsters are having a wrestling meet. You might punchthe bag—except that none of the punching bags have swivels. Andthe badminton players usually find themselves in a tangle with a bas¬ketball—or a volley ball, aand vice versa. This deplorable situationwhich pervades all sports I have investigated, I presume extends toothers. If it doesn’t, it is certainly deplorable on their account alone.What seems incredible is that the prevalent conception of sporthere seems to be that it is found m classes. I should prefer that theemphasis be to encourage sport to be played as a ganve not engaged inacademically, and not organized so as to discourage those who wantto play but have limited time. Classes for a few, by their obstructionof facilities, prevent the majority from getting their exercise whenthey can.I suggest you devote your energies to sponsoring campus athleticsactively and with deliberate intent to produce results. Mr. Hutchinswill take care of providing the setting by eliminating Chicago fromWestern Conference athletics. ROBERT L.

Thejoint’ll be jumping with them thistime next week.All eyes in the Mid-West are al¬ready turning towards the Big TenIndoor Track Meet to be heldMarch 8-9 in the Chicago FieldHouse and what a sight is in storefor them! For the first time infour years the caliber of the track-sters competing is up to that ofpre-war years; notice has alreadybeen served on the men who keepthe record books to hold theirerasers ready for action.Ever since it was erected, ex¬cept for 1941, Chicago’s FieldHouse has been the home of thisannual affair. The,U, of C. trackis generally regarded as one of thefastest indoor dirt tracks in thecountry, and this alone usually in¬sures record - shattering perform¬ances.Though the experts have al¬ready conceded the team title toeither Michigan — last year’schamps—or Illinois, there is stilla good deal of red-hot competitionamong individual performers.As usual much speculation cen¬ters around the dashes where akid named Lloyd LaBeach fromJamaica, British West Indies, hasbeen burning up the cinders in the60-yd. sprint. He has aleady beenclocked at :06.2, just one tenth ofa second off the world’s record.Other stars of nation-wide repu¬tation include the amazing DwightEddleman of Illinois who consist¬ently high-jumps 6-6; Billy Mooreof Northwestern who vrill be aim¬ing at 14 feet in the p61e-vault;Bill Bangert of Purdue who brokethe conference record earlier thisyear with a shot put of 52 feet 4Hinches; and George Walker of Illi¬nois, defending champ in the highand low hurdles.Not to be forgotten are Michi¬gan’s famous Hume twins. Bob andRoss, who have Just returned tocompetition. Either of them is cap¬able of bettering the mile record.This list doesn’t begin to nameall of the top-flight contenders,nor can the written word describethe performances these athletesare capable of. There’s only onething to do, and that’s come outnext week and see for yourself. Maroons DoBetter OutOf Big TenOverlooked for the most part inall the discussions about Chicago’s60 consecutive conference losses isthe much happier record the Ma¬roons compiled in non - leaguegames this past season.Though Coach Norgren’s mendropped their last 12 games—allto Big Ten opponents—they arethe possessors of a six-won. two-lost record in non-conferencecompetition.Best Showing at OhioPlaying all but three Big Tenschools—Northwestern, Purdue,and Wisconsin—the Maroons nevercame closer than 21 points inmatching their opponents’ total.The worst defeat of the year wassuffered at the hands of Illinois,85-24. Oddly enough Chicago madeits best showings against OhioState, Western Conference cham¬pions.In the twelve game schedule theMidway squad averaged 31 pointsper game to its opponents’ 64.Leading individual scorer wasCaptain Freddy DeGraw, who to¬taled 108 points, a nine F>oint av¬erage. Fred’s 18 tallies againstMinnesota represented the top in¬dividual performance of any squadmember.Split With IIPre-conference games were anentirely different story. In win¬ning six of its eight games, Chi¬cago had a 42-point average com¬pared to its opponents’ 40. TheMaroons’ two losses were to Illi¬nois Institute, whom they hadpreviously defeated, and to Law¬rence College. IM Cage Kings ♦ ♦ ,DODD HOUSE SQUADBack row, left to right.

Frontrow: Morrison, Harding, Bechtolt, Anderson, Moreira.Gophers, Iowa TopChicago TrackstersBy FRED HARTSTONEChicago’s track squad dropped its fourth decision' in fivemeets last Saturday at the Field House, placing last in a trian¬gular meet. Minnesota was the easy victor, racking up eightfirsts and a grand total of 65 points, while Iowa scored 34 andthe Maroons 31.When the U. of C. relay teamplaced a poor third in the milerelay Chicago lost its chance ofrevenging a defeat at the handsof the Hawkeyes received lastweek.The mile race provided the chiefthrill of the afternoon. Adams ofChicago was about 15 yasds to therear of Wilder of Minnesota at thestart of the gun lap and then letgo with a spectacular “kick,” pick¬ing up Wilder as they entered thehome stretch and then going on towin the race handily in 4:36.6.Chicago’s other victories came in the two-mile and the 880-yd.sprint. Mulcahy, who placed thirdin the mile, won the former eventeasily in the slow time of 10:31.3,and Bokman turned in a fine per¬formance to win the 880-yd. sprintin 2:02.9.Wally Franke picked up severalpoints for the Maroon cindermen,placing third in both the 60-yd.dash and the 70-yd. low hurdlesand running fourth in the 70-yd.high hurdles. Weaver took a sec¬ond in the high jump by clear¬ing 5.10. Mead SecondAs TitlistsGo UnbeatenClimaxing an undefeated sea¬son, Dodd House of Judson Courtsqueezed past Vincent, 25-20, lastTuesday afternoon to win the un¬disputed Intra-mural House Bas¬ketball League championship for1946.The same afternoon Mathewsupset Salisbury, 22-17, to giveonce-beaten Mead an unconiestedright to second place.The champs unwittingly assuredthemselves of a share in the titleby beating Mead in the first gameof the season. The raggedness inthe play of both teams during thatgame is attested to by the low 19-14 score.Though Schallman and Bechtoltled the Dodd scorers during mostof the year, the team showed agood deal more balance than anyof its opponents. Any member ofthe squad was a scoring threatnear the basket. Much of thecredit for the team’s success mustgo to Bob Anderson who used hisexperience to control the pace ofeach game, and to Coach WallyHebert.Standings of the teams are asfollows:Standings of the teams are as follows:Three Qrapplers Still UnbeatenLast Saturday the Maroon wres¬tlers put on a repeat performanceof their opening match and sodropped their second meet withNorthwestern by a score of 25-11.However, their season’s record isthe best of any compiled by a Chi¬cago team this year — two winsagainst four losses.The grapplers face stiff compe¬tition this week as they meetWheaton, to whom they have al¬ ready lost, and a very strong Iowateam tomorrow, at Iowa. Accord¬ing to the Hawkeye coach, MikeHoward, Iowa’s team may turn outto be the finest in the Universityof Iowa’s history.With the exception of its threelightweight wrestlers, the Chicagoteam was completely helpless inthe Northwestern match, i^ufferingfive fast falls. Both Melas andPalmer, in the 121-lb. class and the 128-lb. class, respectively,gained decisive decisions, and Wal-ford in the 135-lb. division threwhis man in 3.15.The above three men are stillundefeated this season but willface a severe test in the Iowatussle which should provide a fairmeasure of just how far they willgo in the Big Ten meet to be heldnext week.
