Squabbleopen C'Shop This SummerWork on the Coffee Shop is going ahead at a fast clip, andtentative plans call for reopening of the campus hangout simul¬taneously with commencement of the Summer Quarter, accord¬ing to Viola Walberg, Commons and C-Shop head.A new arrangement of fixtures, with serving tables at theback of the shop, is being used tofacilitate bus service from thekitchen, eliminating the long haulsbus boys once made when thefountains were up front.Pre-War MenuMenu at the C-Shop, Miss Wal¬berg said, will be essentially thejiame as pre-war—light lunchesand malts. Difficulty in obtainingcoke syrup may put a slight damp¬er on “the pause that refreshes,”for the Lime being at least. Hoursfor the snack bar have not yetbeen definitely determined.Reinstallment of fixtures was inprogress this week. The sodafountain had been taken out ofstorage, and workmen were ^pour¬ing a concrete foundation at therear of the shop to support steamtables and fountain.Walls and ceiling of the Com¬mons annex have already been re¬decorated, and laying of new floortile commenced Tuesday.Long a Midway institution, theC-Shop early went to war and hasfor the past several years beenfeeding thousands of ASTP’s forthe army.Pick HeadsTo DirectPre-fab CityMr. and Mrs. Earl Ratzer, 114861st St., are the newly appointedrepresentatives in charge of pre¬fabs for the Dean of Student’soffice, according to an announce¬ment by Lawrence A. Kimpton.The appointment is effective June15.Chief immediate duty of thecouple, according to Ratzer, will beestablishment of nursery facilitiesfor prefab city’s growing popula¬tion of urchins. Nature and ex¬tent of facilities to be providedare as yet undetermined, and willdepend largely on decisions madeby the dean’s office, and fundsmade available for the project.Among other things, the Ratzerswill channel prefabites’ questionsand complaints to proper author¬ities* and will be instrumental insecuring certain University privi¬leges, such as use of the Ida pool,for prefab wives.News Briefs . < .Additional pre-fabricated hous¬ing units, for veterans and theirfamilies, will be ready for occu¬pancy next fall, Howard B.

Editor JoanKohn announced today. The paperwill thus return to its policy ofpublishing every quarter duringthe academic year. This policy,initiated in 1944, had to be shelvedlast year when there was an in¬sufficient number of students oncampus with free time for extra¬curricular activities.With the war’s end and the re¬turn of the University to normalpeace-time ways, the editors ofthe MAROON have decided to be¬gin their program of post-war ex¬pansion with the Summer Quar¬ter. In addition to publishing thepaper on a yearly basis, the edi¬tors of the MAROON expect toextend coverage of Universityevents even further, in order tokeep pace with- the many ex¬panded activities of the school.Since education at the Univer¬sity is on a four-quarter basis,many members of the present staffof THE CHICAGO MAROON willbe in residence this summer.These will form the nucleus of thenew staff to be created. Vacancieson the staff will be filled fromstudent applicants and from in¬coming students.In addition, many veterans willattend the University on a four-'quarter basis to make up for timelost. At the -present time sevenveterans are on the MAROONstaff. As the influx of returningveterans increases, it is expectedthat more will be added to thestaff.Since the Summer Quarter isonly ten weeks this year, THECHICAGO MAROON will appearweekly, on Friday, for each of theten weeks. Subscription price oncampus will be forty-five cents,sixty-five cents by mail. Price onthe newsstands will remain fivecents a copy.Maroon PostsAll students interested inwriting for THE CHICAGOMAROON beginning withthe Summer Quarter shouldarrange to see the ManagingEditor, William R. Wam-haugh, before the end ofthis quarter. Mr. Wambaughwill be available on Mon¬day, Wednesday, and Friday,from 12:00 m. until 1:00p.m., and on Saturday morn¬ing from 11:00 a.m. until1:00 p.m. THE CHICAGOMAROON is a recognizedstudent activity, open to allUniversity students in goodstanding, regardless of aca¬demic level. Settlement of the Ph. B. deadlock appeared to be in sightthis week as the College passed five amendments to its Feb¬ruary 6 proposal to abolish the Ph. B, degree. This action whichexpands the Bachelor of Arts program followed several weeksof discussion between the College Policy Committee and the398 StudentsTo GraduateFrom CollegeThree hundred and ninety-eightstudents, forming the largest classin its history, are tentatively sched¬uled to graduate from the Collegenext Friday in the University’s225th Convocation.Higher degrees will be conferredupon a tentative 318 divisional stu¬dents at 11 a.m.; bachelor’s degreeswill be awarded at 3 p.m. Chancel¬lor Robert M. Hutchins will pre¬sent the Convocation address andconfer degrees upon the graduatesin both ceremonies.A special prayer service forgraduates and their families, theoldest traditional ceremony at theUniversity, will begin the Convo¬cation activities at 10 a.m. Sundayin Rockefeller Chapel. Charles W.Gilkey, Dean of the Chapel, willpreside over this service, and Law¬rence A. Kimpton, Dean of Stu¬dents, will serve as reader.Baccalaureate services will fol¬low at 11 a.m. with Dean Gilkeyspeaking on “Postwar Psychology:Then and Now.”Int HouseHas MusicalSundayInternational House will be thescene of a chamber music recital,Sunday, June 9, at 4:30 p.m., in theAssembly Room. A programchosen from the works of Mozart,Schubert, and Beethoven will beoffered. Compositions to be per¬formed include Mozart’s Sonatain F, K. 376, for violin and piano;Mozart’s Duo in G, K. 423, forviolin and viola; Mozart’s Sonatain B Fiat, K. 358, for piano fourhands; and Beethoven’s Quartet inE. Flat, Op. 16, for piano, violin,viola, and violoncello.In addition, Lois Shepherd,mezzo-soprano, will sing threesongs of Schubert, Heidenroeslein(“Climbing Roses”), Der Tod unddas Maedchen (“Death and theMaiden”), and Wohin (“Whith¬er?”). Instrumentalists will beDamian Carles and Laura Magi-doff, pianists; Carl Josef Oden-kirchen, violinist; Helene Mandl,violist; and Johan Ringstad, violon¬cellist. The concert is open to thepublic without charge.Cambridge AthletesWhip Oxford—atTiddledywinks!We see by the papers that theCambridge University tiddledy-wink team last week whipped theOxford tiddledy-wink team, 8-1.Previously the Cambridge tiddlersare reported to have slaughteredManchester and Liverpool Uni¬versities (same sport). Maybe ifsomebody could dig up a fewprofessional tiddledy-winkstersaround here, athletics on the Mid¬way would take a sharp upwardturn and the Maroons could startscheduling matches with somebodybeside Wheaton and Concordiaagain. Committee of the Council of theUniversity Senate.The amendments, which now goto the Council for consideration,propose:1. That a year course entitledGeneral Physics be added tothe curriculum of the Collegeas an alternative mode ofpreparation for the compre¬hensive examination in Phy¬sical Sciences 3; this newcourse to provide, in additionto preparation for the com¬prehensive examination inPhysical Sciences 3, the train¬ing in physics at the Collegelevel which may be requiredby certain divisional depart¬ments and schools in prepa¬ration for their work.2. That plans be worked out bythe staff of Humanities 3,in consultation with the staffsof foreign language coursesand with the Board of Exam¬inations, for employing lan¬guage courses as alternativemodes of preparation for thecomprehensive examinationin Humanities 3. Variantforms of the Humanities 3examination will be provided,all of them testing the samekinds of competence calledfor by the examination inHumanities 3, but drawingtheir materials from differ¬ent foreign languages.3. That a student who has beenin residence in the Collegefor three quarters and hasless than eight College com-prehensives to pass in orderto fulfill the requirementsfor the Bachelor’s degree bepermitted joint residence inthe College and in a divisionor school, with the provisionthat his program be subjectto approval by both the Deansof Students of the College andof the division or school inwhich he has joint residence.4. That the Policy Committeestudy, for the purpose ofmaking a report to the Col¬lege Faculty in the AutumnQuarter of 1946, the problemof including general historyin the fourteen comprehen-sives required for the Bach¬elor’s degree; and of provid¬ing preparation in the cur¬riculum for such an exam,5. That the College action, asatnended, become effectivefor students who enter theCollege beginning with theAutumn Quarter of 1947.Members of the Policy Com¬mittee are James C. Babcock,Ralph Buchsbaum, Merle C. Coul¬ter, Arthur Friedman, Norman F,MacLean, Maynard C. Krueger,Theodore Ashford, O. J. MatthijsJolles and Edward A. Shils; withClarence H. Faust, Dean of theCollege, or John R. Davey, Deanof Students in the College.The controversy over electivesversus compulsory courses in theCollege had raged for months be¬fore the College approved aboli¬tion of the Ph. B. and made theB. A. mandatory for all students.At this point the Council, arguingthat eliminating the degree wouldwork a hardship on students pre¬paring for advanced study in thedivisions, particularly studentswho intend to enter the scienceand medical schools, proposed ajoint committee to reconsider theprogram. Chancellor Hutchins ve¬toed the proposal, the Counciloverruled the veto, and a deadlockensued which was finally brokenby Hutchins’ veto withdrawal.' i. -J'THE CHICAGO MAROON Jwne 7, 194^X^alendar of EventsNext Week onQuadranglesItems to be included in the MAROON calendar must be received inthe MAROON office by noon, Tuesday of the week of publication.Address all notices to “The Calendar Editor.”Frickiy, June 7EXHIBITION.

Construct NewSpectrographConstruction of an infra-redspectrograph which uses light withwave lengths twice as long asthose visible to the unaided eye,in photographing the spectra ofstars and planets was announcedthis week by Dr. Otto Struve, di¬rector of the Yerkes Observatoryof the University of Chicago andof McDonald Observatory of theUniversity of Texas.Use of the new spectrograph atMcDonald Observatory, by theChicago astronomy staff, has re¬vealed additional bands of carbondioxide in the spectrum of theplanet Venus and methane in thespectrum of Jupiter. The spectraof the stars are particularly inter¬esting to astronomers because ofthe presence of strong atomic ra¬diations due to the Paschen seriesof hydrogen and certain forms ofoxygen and calcium.With the new instrument, it ispossible to make exposures ofseveral hours’ duration in fulldaylight, because the blue light ofthe skies is scattered but the redwave lengths are not. The abilityto photograph the spectra in day¬light enormously increases the ef¬ficiency of telescopes.With the spectrograph, light ofthe order of one micron—wavelengths twice as long as light visi¬ble to the naked eye—can .be pho¬tographed. The invisible infra-redradiation is focused by means ofmirrors and a grating plated witha thin coating of gold. GerhardHerzberg, authority on the struc¬ture of molecules, and W, A. Hilt-ner, a.ssistant director of theYerkes and McDonald Ob.serva-tories, made the photographs ofVenus and Jupiter.The grating used was suppliedby R. W. Wood, professor of phy¬sics, Johns Hopkins University, andthe mirrors and lens were madeby Buchele, optical expert of To¬ledo.Infra-red researches will becontinued indefinitely at McDonaldObservatory and may be extend¬ed to still longer wave lengths,Prof. Struve said. The Order of the Iron Mask isagain active on the Quadranglesafter being inactive during the warfor two years. The Order wasfounded in 1896 as a junior hon¬orary society. Its object, in gen¬eral, is to be of service to theUniversity.Among the original members arePercy Eckhart, Clarence Hersh¬berger, Fred Vincent, and ArthurSears Henning.The society is currently limitedto University men who are in theirfirst year of the divisions. Al¬though selection to the Iron Maskbears no specific requirements,candidates are chosen on a basis oftheir scholastic interest, extra cur¬ricular activities, and their generalinterest in promoting the welfareof the University.The former members who arestill on campus have elected thefollowing men the Order: MarvinK.

Paintings ofPaul Klee inArt ExhibitThe prints and paintings of PaulKlee will be the content of an ex¬hibition by the Renaissance So¬ciety from June 7 through June 24in Goodspeed 108. The prints aremainly frcMn the permanent col¬lection of the Museum of ModernArt in New York, and the paint¬ings will come from private col¬lections in Chicago.Klee, though born in Switzer¬land, spent the greater part of hislife in Germany where he was amember of the faculty of Bauhausuntil Nazi interference caused thedisbanding of the school in 1933.He returned to Switzerland wherehe died in 1940.Extremely original, Klee is acreative force that is vitally im¬portant. His work has little ofdirect representation; it is ratherthe result of a fine intellect work¬ing with the discipline of abstractformalization and a fanciful imagi¬nation, creating a strange fantasticworld of people, creatures, and ob¬jects.The formal opening of the showtook place June 5 from 8 until10 o’clock. On the afternoon ofJune 7 from 3 until 5 o’clock,tea will be served and the gallerywill be open to returning alumniof the University.

Scale is athin film of metal oxidewhich forms at high tem¬peratures during fabrica¬tion or processing. It isvery abrasive to dies andother metal-formingtools, and if not com¬pletely removed causesserious flaws in the sur¬face of finished products.Several years prior toWorld War II, Du Pontchemists, engineers andmetallurgists went towork on the problem of■ developinga quick and positive descaling proc¬ess. When success came three yearslater, a secrecy order prevent^ itspublic announcement at that time—the discovery went directly intowar work.Process DevelopmentIn developing the i^ocess, a groupof Du Pont Chemists found thatsmall amounts of sodium hydride,dissolved in molten sodium hydrox¬ide, effectively removed scale with¬out attacking the base metal or em¬brittling it. However, the problemthen arose of finding an efficient andeconomic means of obtaining thesodium hydride. This was accom¬plished by developing an ingeniousapparatus for forming it directly inthe molten sodium hydroxide (TOO®F.) from metallic sodium and gaseoushydrogen.Metal chambers, open at the bot¬tom, are placed along the inside ofthe descaling tank and partly im¬mersed in the bath. Sofia sodium isintroduced into these chambers, andhydrogen gas bubbled through. Thes^um hydride formed is diffusedunifonnly throughout the moltencaustic.Practical ApplicationThe metal to be descaled is ini-mersed in the bath which contains1.5 to 2% of sodium hydride. Scaleis r^uc^ to fhe metallic state forA typical layout shewing arrangetnent of equipment for sodium hydride descaiing. The usual treatingcycle comprises sodium hydride heatment, water quench, water rinse and acid dip for brightening.the most part in from a few secondsto twenty minutes, depending on thesize and type of material.The hot metal is then quenched inwater, and the steam generated ac¬tually blasts the reduced scale fromthe imderlyin^ metal. A water rinseand a short dip in dilute acid com¬plete the process and produce a cleanbright suHace.This process has been called themost significant developinent in thecleaning of metal surfaces in decades.It is representative of what men ofDu Pont are doing to help Americanindustry to better, quicker, moreeconomical production methods.MAN-MADE SPONGES PRO¬DUCED BY DU PONT CHEMISTSAmong the most versatile membersof the family of cellulose products—whose members include rayon, cello¬phane, lacquers and plastics—is theS3mthetic sponge.Du Pont cellulose sponges havemany of the attributes of the kindtl^t grow in the sea, t>lus several ad¬ditional advantages. For example,quality can be kept uniform; textureand hole-size can be predetermined;they can be cut to handy shapes, andthey may be sterilized by boiling.The complicated 10-day manufac¬turing process starts when visco^ isproduct by adding carbon disul¬ phide to alkali cellulose (from woodor cotton), and dissolving the mix¬ture in water and mild alkali. Toproduce holes, crystals of the desiredsize are introduce. Heating in a saltsolution hardens the viscose and dis¬solves out the crystals. Washing,centrifuging and oven-drying com¬plete the operation.rQuestions College Men askabout working with Du Pont A''DOES THE DU PONT COMPANYEMPLOY ENGINEERS?"There are many diverse opportunitiesat Du Pout for engineers. Principalrequirements are for chemical andmechanical engineers, but opportuni¬ties also exist for industrial, civil, elec¬trical, metallurgical, textile, petro¬leum and others. Practically all typesof engineering are included in thework of the manufacturing depart¬ments and the central EngineeringDepartment. Openings for qualifiedengineers exist at times in aU of thesedepartments.More fads about Du PotU- -UftM tt **Cival«Nle if AHWrita,** MwHhyt,? P. M.

GleasonEditorial Consultant Abe Krash RepresentativeGovernmentEndangeredRepresentative government inthis country is going to breakdown unless it is streamlined andreorganized to meet today’s com¬plex problems, Robert M. LaFol-lette, Jr., United States Senatorfrom Wisconsin, declared Sundayon the University of ChicagoRound Table broadcast.“Our present system,’’ LaFol-lette continued, “is not organizedfor the speed and efficiency whichare necessary to meet the urgencyof the problems facing post-warAmerica.’*“Representative government,’’he said, “can do the job, however,if Congress is streamlined; if jointresponsibility and collaboration be¬tween the executive and Congressis established; and if we strength¬en representation and the re¬sponsibility of the people.’’Participating with Senator La-Follette in the Round Table dis¬cussion of “Can RepresentativeGovernment Do the Job?” wereThomas K. Finletter, lawyer andauthor, and Walter Johnson of the*department of history of the Uni¬versity.Finleter and Johnson agreedwith LaFollette that representativegovernment can do the job onlyif it keeps itself up-to-date on theproblems which this country faces.Johnson pointed out that “hesita¬tion in a time of crisis” in meetingtoday’s problems becomes a “trag¬edy.” Our antiquated machineryin the atomic age, he said, has re¬sulted in an almost complete “shut¬down” at the present time. It isthus time, he added, to considerseriously the alternatives and an¬swers to dictatorship.Finletter argued that the prob¬lems America faces are so greatthat changes in the present govern¬mental structure must be “drastic”if these problems are to be met.“Our present governmentalstructure,” Finletter said, “was de¬signed for the nineteenth centuryand was based on a theory of bal¬anced inaction. It jumped alongby spurts of great action followedby periods of complete inaction.But representative government to¬day is being challenged by the ex¬ecutive power of dictatorship. Wehave to remake our government sothat we get the action necessarybut on the responsibility of thepeople and not of a dictator.”“I believe that we have to havestrong executive power,” he said,“but it must be a steady powerand one in which Congress has fi¬nal authority. We must iron outthe peaks and valleys of executivepower which are now caused bythe failure of ‘balanced inaction’to work in an emergency. In sucha crisis, the executive assumesstrong power, but, as the crisiseases, Congress steps in and re¬asserts itself. This is an institu¬tional problem and not simply afailure to act.”Senator LaFollette argued thatthe “peaks and valleys” of execu¬tive power and the present gapsbetween the executive and legis¬lative branches of governmentcould be minimized by adopting,through a simple vote of Congress,a program of streamlining.“As a result of long committeestudy on this problem,” he said,“I have introduced a bill proposingdefinite changes, and I will makea last-ditch fight to have it comeup in the present session.”“The proposals,” he said, “seekto set-up a joint legislative-execu¬tive council which would establishjoint responsibility of both Con¬gress and the President for a jointprogram of action and collabora¬tion. Among other things, thewhole committee system must bestreamlined; committees would bestaffed; and research facilities forevaluation of legislative proposalswould be set up. These are thefirst steps toward making our gov¬ernment work.”Finletter argued that these stepsshould be taken and supportedbut that more study must be de¬voted to other ways of making re¬presentative government work.EDITORIAL ASSISTANTSBarbara Barke Don Bushnell.

Most of them wouldhave expired under the new regulations, had the war continuedanother year.Not only returning University men but veterans eager toexperience all the joys of campus life have swelled the ranks offraternities. This renewed vigor has been reflected in such acti¬vities as I-F’s athletic program. Denied the use of certain Uni¬versity athletic facilities in favor of an anemic intramuralschedule, the fraternity league has surmounted this obstacleto afford its members an active schedule.A University vice-president has said that students who haveno confidence in the administration have no business coming toschool here. Yet one has only to look at the program of extra¬curricular activities, ineffective at the College level, non-ex¬istent at the divisional level. In spite of a succession of‘‘studies,” “reports,” and “recommendations,” the administra¬tion has done nothing to effect a well-rounded program ofstudent extra-curricular activities and recreations. If there isa want of confidence in the administration, the administrationhas only its own do-nothing policy to blame.It is in this situation that the fraternities can demonstratetheir value to our student community. Let the fraternities nowcome forward as the activators and leaders in a program ofextra-curricular activities. At the same time, moreover, thefraternities should enter the intellectual sphere, which they havetoo little cultivated in the past. The fraternities must reinforcetheir claim to leadership by demonstrating outstanding mentaland artistic qualities. This does not mean a revival of Black-friars: it might mean “Mourning Becomes Electra.”Naturally one cannot expect the fraternities to assume theentire burden. They must have co-operation from other studentleaders. In view, too, of the administrative attitude towardsthem, one cannot blame the fraternities’ reluctance to pull theadministration’s chestnuts from the bonfire. It would indeed beironical were the administration’s faces to be saved by thestudent group it most abhors.Some fraternities, however, are like the Bourbons: theynever learn anything and they never forget anything. Therecent submersion of a rival fraternity man’s car in BotanyPond was not only childish, it was impolitic. The tendency ofcertain fraternities to rush ex-officers .and to ignore veteranswho were enlisted men may appeal to some fraternities’ senseof the fitness of carrying the military caste system into peace¬time. To the campus at large it cannot but be abhorrent.The post-war fraternity movement on this campus now hastwo strikes against it. One more blunder like these two will befatal. The I-F Council should immediately demand the deliveryof the persons responsible for the car sinking to the Dean’soffice by their fraternity. Those fraternities which do not sharethe caste beliefs of certain would-be leading fraternities shouldtake steps to disassociate themselves immediately from thosewho feel that a veteran’s contribution in the late struggle is notimportant, provided he was a gentleman by act of Congress.Fraternities at this moment are suspect. They face a forkedroad: one path leads to recognition and a place in this campus*activities. The other leads to extinction. Their fate is in theirown hands. Aftermath ♦ . .“And don’t worry about me, Mom , ,, I’m sitting on top olthe world.”Student FederalistsState PrinciplesIn the realization that another war means the death of our civiliza¬tion, we of the University of Chicago Student Federalist Chapter hav«established this organization as a basis for action toward the only al¬ternative to war, world government.In accordance with the stated policy of this group, our immediahobjective is the initiation by the United Stales of action toward a ie>vised United Nations which will embody the minimum requirement!of World Government. These requirements are not meant to b<exhaustive.1. Each country will surrender to the world government its mtanias well as its right to wage war.2. The world government will be so constituted as to permit neilheisecession nor the expulsion of any individual nation or group onations.3. Certain economic conce.ssions will be required from membtnations for the new common good.4. Insofar as national forms of government, political and economiido not interfere with the application of the above principles, the;will not be violated.5. There will be world legislative, executive and judiciary powers bmake, administer and adjudicate the laws necessary for the fulfitment of those provisions; there will be a world police foreadequate to enforce the laws.6. The world government, in exercising its powers, will have jurisdiction directly over the individual citizen.Student Federalists, The University of ChicagoHere and There(Ed.

Attack and intonation werefirst-rate, rhythm and dynamicswere secure and responsive. Theaddress of the group was remark¬able, particularly in the Bartok.Considering that every note ona wind instrument is a risk, thenearly flawless execution of thethree pieces for brass instrumentswas nothing shc^t of miraculous.Mr. Kessler obviously had laboredJong and arduou.sly with his groupof players to wright the meticu¬lous performance he elicited. Thehorns should be hailed for theirsignally good job.The Holborne piece, performedearlier this season in a concertof outdoor music for brass instru¬ments, is a gay, ingratiating bit, well in keeping with its title.Bruckner, having labored long asan organist, wrought a choralelike, heavy work. The work, how¬ever, was an added bit of evidencethat the greatest of the post-ro¬mantic symphonists deserves great¬er championing than he notv re¬ceives.Haydn’s “London” Symphonyhas a slow movement of beautynobly worthy to range withBeethoven’s last adagios. Beauti¬fully performed, it missed perfec¬tion because of rasping in thestrings. Beethoven’s tender trib¬ute to the memory of his friend,Baroness Eleanora Pasqualati, wasspoilt at its most crucial point bythis same harshness of tone.Written in 1814, three years afterthe death of the Baroness, thework is reflective, rather than sor¬rowful; gentle in its restraint, notsomber and turbulent. While theperformance was stodgy and in-affective, not all the blame forthis rests on poor performance.Part of the blame falls upon Mr.Lange who exhibited a peculiarand mechanical interpretation ofthe score. The subtilty and gracewith which Defaw interpreted thescore last season were lackinghere.The University Chorus, alreadya well-knit body in its first season,sang deftly and with some attemptat interpretation in its solo group.Its performance of Brahms’ heav¬en-storming work, however, wasanything but: numbers were toosmall to be audible clearly attimes above the orchestra. Whatcould be heard seemed to havegood tone production and care¬ful musicianship. Next timeBrahms is attempted, however,please use at least four times asmany singers, Mr. Garrels, or elsestick to Lassus.

The peace-makers havecome like so many carrion overthe bodies of the dead and endedby sowing the next war.Whether or not the reader agreeswith Wofford’s thesis that the wayto prevent the next war is by afederal union of all sovereign na¬tions, one must admire the directand forthright manner in whichhis thesis is set forth and devel¬oped. Here is one young man whohas clearly thought out and for¬mulated for himself a program, afaith, almost a plan of life. At atime when so many people ofWofford’s age and older are sunkin confusion and muddied think¬ing, it is refreshing to have aclearly voiced opinion.There are ineptitudes in theyoung man’s thinking. Like manyof his generation Wofford has fal¬len under the messianic spell ofFranklin Roosevelt. AlthoughRoosevelt towered above all otherleaders in the recent war, and al¬though we may achieve a man ofsuch outstanding leadership butonce in a century, neverthelessmuch of the burden must neces¬sarily, and does, fall upon theshoulders of men of lesser stature,who are nevertheless, men of abil¬ity.

Merrill, As- ficient leadership equal to solvingthe problems of today.Wofford writes,- “I was six whenRoosevelt first became President.He was the only President I couldremember. From my first recol¬lection he was in the headlines,his was the picture on the wall,his the name in the newscasts, histhe voice over the radio.“When he was elected for thesecond time I was in grade school.He was elected for his third termwhile I was training in the Army.My generation knew him well,for we had always known him,but we did not realize how welluntil he died.”This is the key to the thinkingof many groups of young peoplethroughout the world today. Theyare looking for a leader to bringorder into the chaos which existsaround them and within them. Itis exactly this same state of feel¬ing which led to the rise of theBlack Shirts, the Brown Shirts,and all the other ‘ movementswhich plagued post-World IEurope. We are accustomed tothink of the leaders of these move¬ments as middle-aged. We shouldremember that, when these move¬ments sprang into being, the found¬ers were just the age of most ofour returning veterans.Looking abroad, Wofford admitsthat many problems beset thefounding of a world federal gov¬ernment. He sees the United Statesand Soviet Russia as the two bigobstacles. He does not care for theidea of founding a nuclear worldstate, to consist of the westerndemocracies—to which other na¬tions might be added as they be¬come willing to accept the prin¬ciples of world union. Woffordfeels that the entire world mustenter into this organization atonce.Although he refers frequentlyto the leaders of the world unionmovement as followers in thefootsteps of the Federalists of1787, Hamilton, Washington, andFranklin, he overlooks the factthat it was necessary for thesemen to compromise again andagain in order to achieve the fed¬eral union they so ardently de¬sired. Even when completed thatsame federal union did not re¬ceive acceptance by all the thir¬teen sovereign states. RhodeIsland remained outside the newunion until 1790, a year after thenew government had begun func¬tioning. Nevertheless, the Fed¬eralists were willing to acceptfewer than all the states for astart., This book, in spite of shortcom¬ings, one might almost call a po¬litical testament. Elsewhere in to¬day’s paper the reader will find adeclaration of principles by theUniversity chapter of the StudentFederalist organization whichWofford founded. In view of thisgrowing movement, this bookrepresents a growing current ofthought which must enter into anyconsideration of our thinking uponthe question of UN and worldgovernment. —W.R.W,sistant Professor of French, serv¬ing as secretary.Toward that end the group plansto use its influence “to inspire andlead our metroi>olitan communityin an effective program of aid toEuropean scholarship.

How this last groupcame into the job, no one knows;but one analyst, who spent threeyears writing his PhD on the sta¬tistical correlation of the DeathRate of Unemployed Male PretzelBenders in Afghanistan with thesale of New bicycle pumps inChile*, states that the latter groupfits in because the job pays well.At any rate, the proctor is theone who discovers, as on a recentEnglish Comp, such pertinent dataas the facts that in the morningsection, 12.1 per cent of the stu¬dents wore green ties, while in theafternoon, 17.4 per cent of theseties had purple polka dots.

There we went througiithe usual field problems to pre¬pare us for further combat.Visit With Italian FarmerOne evening a few of us manneda mock observation p>ost high on alonely hill near an Italian farm¬house. As the night was cold, wetook turns hovering over the fireinside and trying to converse withthe family, who had graciouslygiven us the seats closest to theflames.The family consisted of an elder¬ly man and his wife and severalwomen relatives. Their son hadserved in the Italian army and hadbeen captured in Tunisia by ourtroops.

It11)9,de nie ashamed for him tothink he found it necessary to de¬mean his own army before a re¬presentative of the forces whichhad defeated it.And yet, he was not entirely in¬sincere, nor entirely convincedthat Italy had been at fault. Hiscriticism implied no censure of theaims of the Fascist state underMussolini. And the form his ex¬pression took seemed to springfrom old thoughts and impres¬sions.I speculated on what this man’slife must have been like whenFascism was at the height of itspower. Perhaps he had been con¬vinced that Fascism was the sal¬vation of Italy, but not wholly con¬vinced. Rather, it seems to me, hemust have tried to ignore its evilswhere they did not directly affecthimself.Farmer Was ConfusedAnd when those evils did cometo his attention, he probably com¬plained but did nothing aboutthem, partly because to do any¬thing was dangerous, and partlybecause he was confused—didn’tknow what was wrong or how togo about changing it.The Fascist state is the anti¬thesis of the Democratic. We valuehighly our right to criticize ourgovernment, to complain of condi¬tions we find contrary to our in¬terest, and to take whatever actionwithin the law we deem necessaryto correct those conditions.We go further—we say it is thedut> of every citizen in a demo¬cracy to take some share in de¬ termining the policies of the gov¬ernment under which he lives.That was one thing that thisItalian farmer, through ignorance,fear and apathy, had not done.”It Can Happen Here”Because hundreds of thousandsof other Italians similarly hadfailed to concern themselves withtheir government, they had livedfor years under an oppressive re¬gime, suffered a crushing mili¬tary defeat in a war they hadhelped to cause, saw their coun¬try the battlefield of foreign troops,and themselves impoverished be¬yond hope of early recovery.In a veterans’ organization, GI’shave an excellent opportunity toinform thernselves by discussion,and lend their weight in the strug¬gle to keep America on the roadto greater democracy and pros¬perity^ To those -who are stillconsidering whether or not to join,I extend an invitation to come tothe next meeting of the campuschapter of the American Veterans’Committee.“These are the times that trymen’s souls.” Let us not by ourapathy, deserve the fate that be¬fell the Italian farmer.GI Bill BoardAll allotment books mustbe turned in to the Officeof Advisor to Veterans bytomorrow (Saturday, June8), for audit.* * «Veterans are reminded thatno more than one order forbooks or equipment may beturned in to the Advisor’soffice per quarter. QI of Week ♦ ♦ ♦PAUL DOUGLAS Will Be Firsf ChicagoAppearance Since 1942By IRVING SCOTTMajor Paul Douglas, former economics professor here, whoentered the marines four years ago as a private, at the age of50, and was twice wounded in action, will make his first Chi¬cago appearance since 1942 at Orchestra Hall on June 13 at 8:30p.m. in a home coming lecture sponsored by the Catholic LaborAlliance, it was announced thisweek.Douglas, a national authority onwages, unemployment and labor-management relationships, will dis¬cuss unity in the world today, un¬der the title, “A House Undivided.”The sponsoring organization ismade up of men and women ofvarious creeds and racial groupsworking for a more democratic so¬cial order.Elected ’ alderman of the 5th(University of Chicago) ward inOffer Opportunity to AidLiberated Peoples AbroadBy RALPH WOODA new nation-wide organization. The Synergic Association,upon the formation of a Chicago headquarters last week, re¬ceived a unanimous pledge of support from the campus chapterof the American Veteran’s Committee in the furtherance of itsaim to assist UNNRA in feeding starving people abroad.Synergic’s member^ip is madeup of scientists, artists and businessmen who have banded together asa non-profit corporation to extendagricultural, nutritional and sani¬tary aid to the liberated peoplesof the world.At the present time the new or¬ganization manufactures and offersfor sale at cost two items packagedfor shipment overseas. The pack¬ages include several bottles ofhigh-potency vitamin food capsulesdesigned for persons who havebeen under a deficient diet, and anagricultural kit of five packagesof vitalized seed. Five pounds ofconcentrated fertilizer are also in¬cluded.Information concerning member¬ship in The Synergic Associationmay be obtained at the AVC of¬fice in the Reynolds club. Con¬tributions from members are allo¬cated to whatever country mem¬bers designate.Million Vets ExpectedTo Seek Aerial TrainingAviation leaders estimate that a million veterans of WorldWar II will seek some form of aviation training through the freecourses offered in the GI Bill of Rights.This attitude, which seems amply substantiated by the in¬quiries which lately have swamped the Veterans Administrationin Washington, womes both theveterans branch and aviationexecutives.Before the war aviation schoolswere few in number, and in coursesavailable. During the war theschools grew to great size andmany new ones were started. In¬structors received more roundedknowledge of how to teach eagerscholars.Even so, there is a dearth oftraining facilities for veterans whoalready have applied, not to men¬tion the thousands expected to filein the next year or so. Since thisis a rush that may exist only acomparatively short time—veter¬ans must begin their educationwithin four years after discharge—and training facilities call forlarge amounts of equipment, theschools are reluctant to expand be¬yond what might be indicated asnormal growth.There are only 550 schools in thecountry approved by the CivilAeronautics Administration, manyof them quite small. These willaccommodate only a fraction of the present applicants, and CAA ap¬proval standards are so high fewnew schools will be able to meetthe requirements.—^The Collegiate Veteran Army AbandonsGardiner PlansBy RALPH WOODThe campus AVC collaboratingwith the Hyde Park Chapter re¬ceived a worthy reward for tlietremendous pressure they broughtto bear upon the Gardiner Hos¬pital disposal plan of the Army,when Mayor Kelly, shortly afterthe Mandel Hall Housing Rally,Tuesday, announced that the Armyhad abandoned plans to make theHospital into Army offices.The mayor announced that theHospital will now be turned overto the FPHA for disposal either ashousing for 300 veterans familiesor as a new South Side Hospital.In the meantime, the Army isplanning to move its local head-quarter^ to Omaha.Dr. Lise Meitner HereDr. Lise Meitner, the mathema¬tician who was driven from Ger¬many during the war and whoforwarded atomic research inAmerica, lectured on campus thisweek.

Nelson Metcalf, director of athletics.With this announcement University students are assured anopportunity to compete in whatever sports they most desire dur¬ing the months most suited to out¬door activities.Bali Team ActiveHeadlining the varsity team pro¬gram, the baseball squad promisesto be even more active than it wasduring this past Spring Quarter.A schedule is being drawn upwhich calls for two games a weekagainst whatever kind of competi¬tion can be found. This will in¬clude colleges, industrial squads,and independent teams.With many of the regular var¬sity ball players out of school forthe summer, a number of new menare needed. Those interested shouldcontact Joe Stampf of the physicaleducation staff w’ho will be hand¬ling the team this summer in placeof J. Kyle Anderson.Net Competition PlannedInformal varsity competitionmay also be the order of the day,or rather the quarter, for tennisenthusiasts. Until a few years ago,Chicago used to compete duringthe summer months with clubteams throughout the city. If astrong enough squad can be organ¬ized this summer, the competitionmay be resumed.For those who fancy intra-muralathletics there is to be a soft-ballleague, a tennis tournament, andseveral golf outings.Plans for golfers call for twotwi-light affairs from 5 to 8 p.m.at Jackson Park on July 10 andAugust 9, and two afternoon fes¬tivities at Cog Hill on July 15 andAugust 12.Dates for soft-ball and tenniswill be announced later.Classes to Be HeldNor does this complete the ath¬letic departments plans for the en¬suing three months. Regularclasses will be held in swimming,tennis, and golf. Also the swim¬ming pool in Bartlett will be openregttlar hours and tennis courts onthe campus will be kept up by theUniversity. Incidentally, reserva¬tions for the courts can be madeahead of time in the athletic de¬partment offices.Sports opportunities for womenire not being neglected either.Classes and intra-mural competi¬tion both are being planned. De¬tails may be secured from theWomen’s athletic offices in IdaNoyes Hall. The Big Ten and the Universityof Chicago came to a parting of theways last Saturday afternoon. Itwas appropriate that on the sameday. Western Conference officialsshould be meeting to discuss prob¬lems of the league.The problems that arose fromthat meeting gave meiuiing to Chi¬cago’s decision of a few monthsago to withdraw from the Confer¬ence because of its inability tocompete with schools which havemade athletics “Big Business.”It seems that even jvith the Ma¬roons out, the league is still divid¬ed into two groups—the “haves”and the “have nots.* The “haves”are those schools with a footballstadium that seats at least 80,000.The “have nots,” Indiana, Purdue,and Iowa, possess stadiums with asmaller capacity.Because football must show re¬sults in the form of cash receiptsin order to justify itself, the latterthree schools found it next to im¬possible to work out a satisfactoryhome schedule with the larger in¬stitutions. It doesn’t pay Ohio orMichigan to play before a paltry35,000 people when they could bedrawing twice that number.• V VIncidentally at the same meet¬ing last W'eek, Big Ten big-wigsturned down the applications ofboth Michigan State and Pittsburghas replacements for the Universityof Chicago.The chances are that as Chicagobowed out, the Big Ten died for¬ever but was replaeed by the BigNine. Even nine members makeschedule making a luretty diffi¬cult task, and ten would be justthat much .harder. ’So at last the Chicago Tribunewill be factually correct when itrefers to the Western Conferenceas the Big Nine.Illinois Captures FourBig Ten ChampionshipsBy winning Big Ten titles in track and tennis last week theUniversity of Illinois finished 1945-46 Conference competitionwith four championships to lead Ohio State and Wisconsin withtwo each and Michigan and Indiana with one apiece.Michigan’s Record IntactThe mini had champions in wrestling and indoor tract inaddition to their spring victories.» — ;—; ;Wisconsin won basketball and, also won national distinction bycross-country, Ohio State took has- i sweeping its competition with theket ball and swimming while In¬diana won its first football crown,anif Michigan kept intact a recordof at least one title during its Con¬ference membership since 1900,with an upset victory in golf.In national competition duringthe year, Ohio State w'on anN.C.A.A. title for the Big Ten with best oarsmen of the East and willseek to repeat in later competitionwith Western crews on PugetSound.Herb McKinley.of Illinois wonmajor honors as an individual byequalling the Conference andAmerican records for the quarterdominance of the swimming cham- 'niile indoors in :48.1 and by break-pionships.
