And as long as we are going around dedi¬cating things, I believe I’ll dedicate my column this week to acquaint¬ing the reader with the various members of the athletic staff.First of all there is the Directorof Athletics, T. N. METCALFE.The boss spent his undergraduatedays at Oberlin College, where heparticipated in baseball, footballand track, winning national fameas a distance runner. Spendingseveral years at Oberlin as trackand football coach, he next wentto Columbia where he coachedfootball. From Columbia he wentto Minnesota as Professor of Phy¬sical Education. His next stopwas Iowa State where he held thepost of Director of Athletics from1924 to 1933. The following yearhe came to Chicago, where he hasremained as Director of Athletipand Chairman of the AthleticStaff. Metcalfe spent two yearsin the navy as officer in chargeof physical training.Next on our list is KYLE AN¬DERSON, head baseball coach andassistant director of athletics. Kyleattended the University of Chica-go where he participated in both ,j, metCALFEfootball and baseball for threeyears, captaining the baseball team in his third year. After graduationhe took on duties as freshman basketball, baseball and football coachat Chicago. In 1934 he was named head baseball coach, a post hehas held ever since. He has been assistant varsity basketball coachsince 1934, and during Norgren’s absence in the seasons of. ’43 and’44 he was head coach.NELSON N. NORGREN is another alumnus of the University ofChicago, and was without question the school’s greatest all-aroundathlete. The only man in the history of the school to win twelve lettersin three years, he participated in football, track, basketball andbaseball. He was captain of the football team and all-conferenceat one time or another in each of these sports. He coached basket¬ball at Utah for two years, and led his team to the National Col¬legiate Championship in 1922. Returning to Chicago the followingyear, he coached the MAROONS to a Big Ten championship in 1924.During his tenure at the University, Nels has been assistant footballcoach as well as basketball coach, and in 1945 the versatile Norgrencoached the varsity Tennis Squad.ERWIN BEYER was a varsitygymnast for three years, and wascaptain and Naticnal IntercollegiateAll-Around Champion his third year.He spent two years as assistant gym¬nastics coach to D. L. Hoffer, and in1940 he became head coach. Sincethat time Beyer has had outstandingsuccess with his teams, coaching manyBig Teh conference championships,and is looking forward to a big sea¬son this coming year.NED MERRIAM was track coachat Yale and Iowa State before he be¬came coach at Chicago. He partici¬pated in varsity...track and footballas an undergraduate at the Univer¬sity of Chicago, and as a youth hefan and won Olympic events for theUnited states. As a. coach, Merriamhas developed some of the most outstanding pole vaulters in the coun¬try*ALVOAR HERMANSEN has been head coach of Chicago’s fencingteam since 1934. During fhat time his teams have won six Big TenChampionships, one National Championship, and 10 Big Ten individ¬ual champions. In 1939 one of his fencers (Joe Melkup) was NationalIntercollegiate Champion. Hermansen was a United States Olympicfencing coach, and on campus he coaches soccer as well as fencing.PAUL DERR graduated from the University of Illinois, and spenta few years there as assistant football coach. He then went to Law¬rence College where he became head coach in football, track andswimming. Since coming to the University of Chicago, he has actedas director of Junior Varsity athletics, J.V. track coach, and varsityhandball and squash coach.WALLACE McGILLIVARY has been swim¬ming and water polo coach at the University forover 20 years. During that time he has had out¬standing success with his teams, particularly waterpolo in which he has had several Big Ten cham¬pionship teams.I Of all athletic teams in recent years, none hasenjoyed greater success than the Varsity Tennissquad. One reason for these successes has beenthe excellent coaching of Wally Herbert. WallyIs leaving us’ this year, and it is with the deepest re¬gret that we must say goodbye although we wishhim luck. His replacement as tennis coach willprobably be Chicago’s own CHET MCRPHT. one,y_ McGILUVRATof the Big Ten’s greatest tennis aces. He was con¬ference singles and doubles champion for three consecutive years, andheld ninth National Doubles ranking before entering service as a navyflyer. ' -JOE STAMPF was a C-Man for three years, and captain of thebasketball team. In his senior year he set a new scoring record as hetopped all Big Ten conference scorers. He is the Junior Varsity base¬ball and basketball coach, and a physical education instructor.A new face on the Chicago athletic staff this fall, is that of Oberlingraduate KEENAN BOYSHEFF. Upon graduation he went into thenavy, and on discharge he joined the University of Michigan’s athleticstaff. Now at Chicago, he will take over as Intramural Director andbadminton coach.So there, fellows and gals, is your athletic staff. They’ll needplenty of help in putting teams on the fields and courts this followingyear, so some on out and give ’em a helping hand. If you cannot par¬ticipate, come on out and cheer for them anyway.E.

Immediatelyfollowing the rally, a survey com¬mittee of about 150 volunteers andpress men will start through thezoned Hyde Park area.As in the past, AVC expects tofind much housing available, butunusable because of the zoninglaw. The next step will be a let¬ter to the mayor demanding tem¬porary waiving of the housing zonelaws in effect in Hyde Park. Theletter will be followed with hous¬ing demonstrations all during theweek to be climaxed by a mam¬moth housing rally on Saturday,October 18.“Door Bells’* SuccessfulThe political committee re¬ported that the AVC program of ‘every veteran a voter,* was asuccess because of the persistentdoor-bell ringing efforts of themembership (now some 600). Thedoor bell program was inaugu¬rated through cooperation with theVeterans Committee for Rowanand Douglas, and the use of theAVC cell system, similar to thepreeinct system of the city.A report by the co-op commit¬tee stated that a co-op was beingpurchased for the use of 16 fam¬ilies, and that more co-ops wouldbe developed as soon as a suit¬able number of veterans indicatedtheir desire to participate.Propose Vet Art ShowAnnouncements were made ofa proposed veteran’s art show tobe held in the near future, withAVC as sponsor; a free notarypublic service for all veteranswho appear at the AVC office; andfree help to any of the 26 veteranswho did pay for their extrd dormi¬tory fees in Burton-Judson, and ;are now trying to get a refund 'on this payment.Wind is lar more importantthan temperature to the coolingof the body, according to the En¬cyclopaedia Britannica.

Stories inPrize CollectionNew Plastic Resists Heat, Acids, Electricity'^Teflon,'^ Product of GroupResearch, Is Solving Diffi¬cult Problems in Radar,Television and IndustryA group of Du Pont research menwere looking for a new refrigerant ofa particular type. These men foundwhat they were after; but, as so oftenhas been the case, they found some¬thing more—this time an industrialplastic whose unique qualities makeit invaluable in many fields.During the study, the chemist incharge proposed a route to the s)m-thesis of HCFjCFjCl via tetrafluoro-ethylene, CF2=CF2. In working withthe latter, a chemically reactive gasboiling at -76.3C./760 mm., it waslearned that it polymerized to forma resin having imusual properties.After evaluation by organic andphysical chemists, physicists andelectrical experts, a suitable processfor the difficult manufacture of thisproduct was worked out by the chem¬ists in collaboration with chemicaland mechanical engineers.Structure and Properties’Teflon” is made by polymerizinggaseous tetrofluoroethylene to givea solid, granular polymer:Controlled at this one panel is sH the equipment forproducing the polymer from which Is made "Teflon." The fluorine atoms in the moleculeimpart exceptional properties of re¬sistance to heat and chemicals.’Teflon” has unusual heat resist¬ance. Having no true melting point,’Teflon” decomposes slowly to givethe gaseous monomer and a fewOifher gaseous fluorine derivatives ataround 400°C. Under certain condi¬tions small ainoimts of fluorine-con-taming gases have been observed attemperatures above 230°C. Becauseof its heat resistance, gaskets andwire insulation for jet engines arenow made of this plastic. It is alsoused in aircraft ignition systems nearsparkplugs and in high-temperatureheating systems.The chemical resistance of ’Tef¬lon” is such that it withstands theattack of all materials except moltenalkali metals. Boiling in acid (aquaregia, hydrofluoric acid or fumingnitric acid) will not change its weight or properties. For this reason it mayhave wide use in such applications astubing and piping for chemical plantsand acid-distillation equipment.Because the dielectric loss factoris extremely low, even at frequenciesup to 3000 megacycles, it is an ex¬cellent insulating material for cur¬rents of ultra-high frequency. Itsheat-resisting and aging qualitiessuggest immediate uses as a dielectricin coaxial cables for color television,and in radar and power fields.Forms of 'Teflon^ AvailableBy use of special techniques the newplastic can be extruded as rods,tubes or wire coating. In general, itsextrusion rates are low in compari¬son to other thermoplastics becauseof its resistance to softening.‘ More facts about ’’Teflon” are inDu Pont Plastics Technical ServiceBulletin No. 13.

Girls included in this cate¬gory must be in their respectivehouses at 12 midnight five nightsa week and at 2 a.m. on the othertwo nights, and all men who re¬turn to Burton-Judson Court after10:30 p.m. Sunday through Thurs¬day nights and after 1 a.m. Sat¬urday and Sunday mornings mustindicate the time of their return ona printed form.The introduction of hours forall third and fourth year girls inresidence in a University dormi¬tory may be explained, accordingto Mr. John Wilkinson, directorof the University House system, inthe light of the problems thatarose under previous systems.When there were no definitehours for the third and fourthyear house members, no under¬standing as to when the girls mustbe in could be arrived at, becausethe standards among differenthouses varied, and it was accord¬ing to these standards that re¬strictions were imposed. The newplan intends to provide uniform¬ity so that the past discrepancieswill be avoided.The situation in Burton-Judsonrequires a different solution be¬cause of its internal structure andthe diversity of age among thestudents. Central control is imprac¬tical, and the presence of olderveterans who should not be sub¬ject to these regulations necessi¬tates handling of the problem onan individual basis by the headsof the respective entries.SA Sales UpThe Student Asociation yester¬day reported that over 1,250 ac¬tivities tickets have been sold andthat the drive to sell 1,700 is go-in forward with increasing vigor.Dietz Schulze, member of theassociation’s board of managers,announced that wives of veteranswho purchase the $3 ticket will beadmitted free to all C-dances andPlayers’ Guild productions. Thisrepresents a further saving, toveterans, of $4 in addition to the$7 saved per quarter by all stu¬dents who purchase the ticket.The activities ticket entitlesholders to all issues of the MA¬ROON, Pulse, Chicago Review.University Observer, Quadran¬gles, and admittance to all Play¬ers’ Guild productions and C-dances.The human heart beats 100,000times a day, pumping more than10,000 quarts of blood, according tothe Enclopaedia Britannica.

There’s a six-piece comboat the Wheel, which goes for goodharmony, instrumental co-opera¬tion and good technique, ratherthan the often-used jam session,solo kind of combo stuff.Although I’m not queer fordrums, the high point of the even¬ing was steady, high-pointeddrumming by Wilbur AnthonySmith, Jr., who, thank the Lord,shortens his name to Buddy.Equally good, but not always onthe same level, was a Kirby-likebassist, introduced to me as “Hog,”because his mother named himClarence Mason.During the first number or two,I went wild over Nick Cooper’strumpet, which demonstrated thetechnique you’ll never forget. Itreminded me a little of B. G.’stechnique on clary. But after awhile, Nick got a little over-techniqued; you might almost sayhe was showing off. He got overa very good solo on “Summer¬time,” which was impressive, buta little tiring. Cooper also doesthe rather spectacular three hornharmonies for his trumpet, theleader’s trombone and the alto saxof the combo.Speaking of the leader, he’s“Streamline” Ewing, the one-handed trombonist, who takesrather meaningless solos. But“Streamline” comes into his ownwhen he goes into the horn trio.McKinley Eastern, who was fill¬ing in for Chauncey Jarrett onalto, was under a handicap be¬cause of the same. He had a mel¬low tone, a little too imitative ofHodges, with ideas a little tooreminiscient of the “Hawk.”On piano. Buddy Rodgers, whose real first' name is Wiley,did a clean job of chording, whichthey tell me is what makes a goodjazz pianist. However, I likesomething a little more thanchords in my piano solos.Went down to the Hurricane,where I heard re-bop, LesterYoung. There must be some basisfor his harrponic difficulties, butwithout an equal amount of thestuff, that Lester takes, I can’tseem to'see it. Filling in for l^es-ter were a local combo, who takelong solos on trumpet and piano,even drum, while Lester weavesfrom side to side on the stage.Apologies to all re-bop fans, but Icouldn’t stay longer than half a set.'PhUharmonicJazz' Here“Jazz at the Philharmonic,” atwo and one-half hour orchestralperformance of blues, jazz andswing, will be presented at theOpera House at 8:30 p.m. Octo¬ber 24. ^The orchestra is composed ofrecording artists and directed byNorman Granz, noted jazz critic.This is the second time the pro¬gram has been presented here.Feature attractions for the eve¬ning will include saxophone solosby two of the nation’s top artists,Coleman Hawkins and IllinoisJacquet.

The Chicago Maroon.EditorialA Community of ScholarsThe charge probably most often levelled against the Uni¬versity is “lack of school spirit’* and extra-curricular activity.There is no community among the students here, and such asexists is chaotic and without purpose.This accusal smacks of a lar^e measure of truth. For toomany the University is a “street-car” school consisting of text¬books, professors, notebooks, and the thought processes pro¬voked thereby—a place where courses are ground out anddegrees won.If Chicago is to become, in a larger sense, a “community ofscholars,” this situation must be corrected. With the war overand former students and veterans swelling enrollment to alltime peaks, the time is ripe for improvement. Indeed there arestrong indications that this is already under way.AVC and the Student Federalists have proven themselvesas active and purposeful student groups. Inter-Org, notwith¬standing its present state, continues as a promissory note withan indefinite maturity date, and with proper leadership will soonprovide the foundation for representative student govermnent.The Student Association, by providing lot sale of publications,plays and dances at a discount of more than 50 per cent, hasstimulated student support of these activities.The rest is up to the students themselves, as individuals andcitizens of the University community. Good citizens of anycommunity play more than a passive role in its affairs. Thestudent body at Chicago will develop into a real communityto the extent that its members play an active role in extra¬curricular functions on campus. 'TheBookCornerTHE DISCOVERY OF INDIA. ByJawabarlal Nehru. New York: JohnDay. 1946. 581 pp. $5.00.Reviewed byRICHARD R. ROBERTSJewaharlal Nehru is a man notlikely to be highly regarded bymany of us living in parts of theworld where the one outstandingmeasuring-stick of greatness andability is power — power aptlydemonstrated by real accomplish¬ments. Few Americans would denythat skyscrapers, fast cars, beauti¬ful women, high rank, big estates,large bank accounts, and posses¬sions of this order are the tangiblethings whose owners win respectand awe in our civilization. Themen who build, command, striveand win are our folk-heroes. Ourideals are materialistic, and who¬ever refuses obeisance to themmay be suspected of weakness,dementia or perversity.But the white man’s world is notthe only world. The Discovery ofIndia is Jawaharlal Nehru’s fascin¬ ating and highly intelligent pictureof another world, today a vast anddreamy civilization, but one whichis a quiet reservoir of static powerbeyond most Western comprehen¬sion.Written in PrisonNehru wrote the book in Ah-madnagar Fort prison during fivemonths, April to September, 1944.He was fortunate in being sur¬rounded by brilliant colleagueswho represented the top layer ofmodern Indian philosophy, scholar¬ship, and politics. In the fivemonths of writing, Nehru blendedhistory with deep criticism.Face to face with the povertyand degradation of modern India,steeped in the memory of a richand diverse past, Nehru turnedover in his mind the question ofIndia’s destiny. He asked himself:‘what is the land, what has it been,why has it lost its strength andwhere in India can the stirring ofvitality be found?’ “The futurethat took shape in my mind,” hewrote, “was one of intimate co¬operation, politically, economically,culturally, between India and theother countries of the world.”India Permeated with PastA noble ideal, the creative idealalways found in nascent hatinnal- ■A Debate-FraternitiesPro-ConBy a Fraternity ManThe fraternities have alwaysheld a leading position on the U.of C. campus, and with the returnof the veterans, their leadershipin student activities has becomeeven stronger. Student participa¬tion in campus activities such asthe Student Settlement Board andstudent publications stems chieflyfrom fraternity men and clubwomen. Varsity athletics havebeen supported mainly^ by thefraternities; other activities suchas Student Federalists, AVC, Play¬ers Guild and the music organiza¬tions have a high percentage offraternity participation.The lack of adequate social ac¬tivity on the campus as a wholehas long been lamented by bofhthe student body and the adminis¬tration. The fraternities havedone their best to fill this void bydeveloping a very comprehensivesocial program for the comingyear. The last “C” Dance of thesummer quarter which was spon¬sored by the Inter-FraternityCouncil (the proceeds of whichhelped to pay a considerable partof the expenses of the U. of C.’sdelegate to the Prague Interna¬tional Student Conference) is agood example of the fraternities’efforts along these lines.Lower Living, ExpensesThe advantages in belonging toa fraternity are manifest. Theexperience and insight gained inliving and co-operating with agroup of fellow students in an or¬ganization of this nature is a valu¬able part of a college education.The living expenses in a houseare materially lower than in thedormitories, and the return for adollar paid in to a fraternitykitchen is much geater than thatpaid in to the local restaurants,as the fraternity houses are, oper¬ated on a non-profit basis.The scholastic advantages ofliving with men who are taking orhave taken courses in one’s fieldof study, the opportunity to par¬ticipate in fraternity intramuralathletic teams during all seasonsof the year, and the lasting friend¬ships formed with the other mem¬bers of the active chapter andwith the alumni are also amongthe benefits of fraternity mem¬bership.Right of SelectionThe major criticism of frater¬nities has been the discriminationinvolved in the selection of newinitiates. Fraternities, as do allgroups or organizations, exercisesome degree of selection of theirmembers, since it is everyone’sright to select his friends androommates.The purpose of fraternities isnot to carry on political activity,but to provide for the welfare andpromote the friendship of thebrothers. This does not precludefraternity men from a wide ac¬quaintance on campus, as isevinced by their extensive partici¬pation in student activities.Fraternities play a vital role infurnishing student leaders, and thebenefits of membership are con¬ducive to a well-rounded collegelife.ism, if anything in nationalism haspositive cultural values. In find¬ing the answers to his questions,Nehru saw the panorama of a cul¬ture knitted by inner coherencyand yet comprising vast variety,moreover, a culture that has devel¬oped and held its place on earth formore than six thousand years.Babylon, Persia, Macedon, Rome,Byzantium, the Ottoman Realm-are all mighty empires which haverisen, flourished and declined,leaving few living traces of theircultural essence in the lands oftheir origin. The life of modernIndia is permeated with the cultur¬al gifts of the past. In this liesIndia’s greatness and her weakness,for the aggressive values and ef¬ficient methods of the WesternWorld aro formidahlo tool® of ron- By An IndependentSeveral weeks ago a young girlon the campus was asking, “Howlong do you think it will be beforethe fraternities get going strongagain?” She asked rather dream¬ily, and beyond doubt there werehappy visions floating before herpretty blue eyes of past events—of the charms and joys of lifeamong fraternity boys, their fash¬ions and graces, the subtleties ofmanner and outlook, and their con¬vertibles, the current lack of whichshe found disconcerting. She wenton talking in the same vein forseveral minutes, and made it plainthat her own life would not beentirely cleared of war’s drab in¬fluence until the aristocratic waysof the American collegiate ancienregime were resumed with fullforce.The wistful longing of this onelittle girl is only part of a greatsentimental urge looking towardre-establishment of the often cau¬tious, sometimes bitter, discrim¬ination and germinating class war¬fare that reached high tide duringthe latter ’30’s and in the yearsjust before the war.Self-Constituted “Nobility’*Like most members of a self-constituted “nobility,” the frater¬nity boys will argue that their or¬ganizations have no predatory in¬tentions, that they are not designedwith an eye to monopolizing theuniversity’s social life. The “or¬ganized” boys are merely cream,in the nature of things, finding itsway to the top of the bottle. Theirmutual interests seem to dictatesolidarity. For pleasure as well asfor more serious activity, they findstrength in union, spreading theirlore of superior social wisdomamong select novices, alerting thegroup for victory in the scramble' for honor, power and pleasure.And even though these survivalsfrom the days of Old Siwash are“as American as apple pie,” theirtracks are strewn with rancor, forwhile they are excellent training-camps for social conquest, they arenot good schools for democracy.Stumbling Block to ImprovementThe University of Chicago cur¬rently has a mission of increasingthe balance and understanding ofmen and women primed to carryon the fight for a healthier societyand a more intelligent world. Thefight will be difficult enough inthe face of over-heavy enrollments,without encouraging the pettysquabbles and social skirmishes ofOld Siwash. Until now, fraternitieshave stayed in the background.Let them remain there, and letlittle social conquistators and gayblades find ther way to someminor university where Old Si¬wash is a living reality and thecarefree joys of college life aretaken as seriously as they are inAndy Hardy pictures.quest. The world is ruled by thepowerful, and the spiritual valuesof India have little likelihood ofovercoming the political and mil¬itary power of her overlords. Butcan these same spiritual valuesovercome the inertia of the evilfeatures of India’s civilization?Claims British RepressiveIt was not “the England ofShakepeare and Milton, of noblespeech and writing and brave deedsof political revolution and thestruggle for freedom, of scienceand technical progress,” whichheld sway in India through mostof British imperial history; it wasthe England of “brutal behavior,of entrenched feudalism and re¬action.” He concludes, in sp.eakingof these developments, that “it isnot inconceivable that if Britainhad not undertaken this great bur¬den in India and, as she tells us,endeavored for so long to teach usthe difficult art of self-govern¬ment, of which we had been soignorant, India might not only havebeen freer and more prosperousbut also far more advanced inscience and art and all that makeslife worth living ” Officers of the Chicago chapterof the Inter-collegiate Zionist Fed.eration of America were electedat the first meeting of the quarterOctober 2.

The entire entering class holds little morethan one hundred fifty women in the upper levelo fthe college, less than half of whom would normal¬ly join a club.

A kindof minor revolt against affiliation got underwayin Foster during Orientation Week and is still goingstrong; all of which will effectivly cut down thealready small number of rushable women. SicTransit, etc. . . . DONSuch disenchantment is certainly net apparent on shields.the fraternity scene. Maybe it takes a helluva lotmore than what the fraternity have to offer (which includes livingaccommodations, by the way) to disenchant the ex-G.I.’s, but anywaythey’re flocking some pretty definite ideas. Take, for instance, thecharacter who showed up at a Sunday night open house and sathimself down to be amused. “And what are you interested in?”gladhanded an active rusher. The G.I. set his jaw tightly. “AlphaDelta Phi” he said, and he wasn’t sitting in the Alpha Delt house.And to make a short story longer, we have it on good authoritythat the Alpha Delta are going to blackball him on sight.ADVENTURES OF A COVER GIRL DEPT.: Our own Mary With-ington who went and got her face on Life Magazine the same day itappeared on the Maroon’a Marshall Fiend Co. ad, has turned a deafear to Hollywood.

THE CHICAGO MAROONART AND SCIENCEWe live in a fast-moving world, one in which even refrigeratorsmust seem to be going some place in a hurry. Functionalism, theelimination of unnecessary appendages, has become a guiding prin¬ciple in our lives. Now the functional beauty of body structure hasbeen pointed out dramatically in THE HUMAN EAR IN ANA¬TOMICAL’ TRANSPARENCIES by Gladys McHugh of the Uni¬versity of Chicago Clinics. As a motor or a line of poetry may run“sweetly” so also it may be seen from these drawings that the earis sweet, with all parts functioning smoothly and with ho frictionor lost motion. In this and in THE HUMAN EYE IN ANATOM¬ICAL TRANSPARENCIES a new method of three-dimentionalillustrating is presented, a method which is so good that one marvels,as always when things are both new and good, that it was nevertried before.OTHER SCIENCE BOOKSBrown; MUST DESTRUCTION BE OUR DESTINY?Carter: SIN >ND SCIENCEGomow; ATOMIC ENERGY IN COSMIC AND HUMANLIFEGarrett; MAN—THE MAKERGutftrie; HISTORY OF MEDICINEHogben: SCIENCE FOR THE CITIZENMoulton; AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF SCIENCEHewmork; DICTIONARY OF SCIENCE AND TECH¬NOLOGY—THE ATOMIC REYOLUTIOHUNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO BOOKSTORE5802 ELLIS AYENUE.

We feelthat this has been justified inthe past year. It cannot, however,be justified over longer periodsof time.“Burden Shared”“From now on,” Simpson warnedhis audience, “the burden mustbe shared and predominantlycarried by intelligent citizens ofthe United States. The close co¬operation of the scientists with thepublic in the future is assured.”“What I am saying is, then,that the scientists are returningto the laboratories once again, andthey will work there effectivelyso long as they have, the freedomrequired to carry on original re¬search. This return to the labora¬tory does not imply completeevacuation of the scientists fromthe political scene, but rather a leveling off of activities to a levelthat we can maintain over aperiod of years.”“Scientists have acquired a newinformed outlook on the problemsthat we helped create for • theworld,” Simpson declared. “Theyare anxious to en*courage theUnited Nations Educational, Scien¬tific and Cultural Organization inpromoting its international pro¬gram throughout the world. Theywill also give their services to anyatomic energy development com¬mittee which might arise out ofthe international discussions be¬ing considered at present. Theyare anxious to contribute to thesuccess of any international lab¬oratories which might be spon¬sored jointly by the nations ofthe world.”Seieaee Contributions“Scientists have made contribu¬tions to civilization which caneither result in its continuedgrowth or in its eventual destruc¬tion. The scientists’ responsibili¬ties, therefore, lie in the area ofinforqiing their governments and'ftie economic, political and socialscientists of the implications ofthe application that new basicdiscoveries may have on the na¬tional and international welfare.“With the acceptance of themost challenging question of ourtime by the scientists,” Simpsonconcluded, “they cannot help butraise the serious query of _ whatis the citizen, interested in main¬taining peace, going to do aboutthe atomic energy problem.” BlitheandBrittleBy BARKE and BUSHNELLWe are here to present you,readers of the Chicago MA¬ROON, with something slightlydifferent in the way of a column.Not so much in the sense (we hope)that you will find it barren of namesand subtle humor but different inthat we will not be concerned pri¬marily with Greek letter men orclub girls. We are interested, sur¬prisingly enough, in what Hutch¬ins has proclaimed the “dormprogram,” the commuters, the vet¬erans in the prefab cities, andnew students.

With as little as possiblebarred from our snooping (orscooping) we present our cpl-umn—The biggest event of last week,aside from the beginning ofclasses, was naturally the C-Dance. Given by our own newand improved Student Social com¬mittee, there was to be seen agood floor show (worked into en¬tertainment order by ED ARM¬STRONG), a large stag line grow¬ing impatient at the absence ofdateless women, a bruising crowd,and myriads of new faces likethose of MISS SARAH RUTHCOOK, new assistant director ofstudent activities, LEO POVER-MAN and blond friend MARGECURRAN. BOB BELL, CHARLESCUSTARD, BOB O’FIELD, DONKAYE, and many more—only it’sdifficult to match new faces withfigures at this early stage.Standing in the lines at tneBookstore, Harper M-15, the Cof¬fee-Shop, the Housing Bureau, etc.,we noticed people active a fewyears back in the U. of C.—KennySears, Jean Hirsch, Elliott Ep¬stein, Art Lambert, Bill Mullens,Mike Clark, Bill Ballard, DavidCates, Steve Plank, and Bill Mil¬ler. Among the crowds seated inthe new bleachers erected at the“big hole” we found more oldstudents gaping at the progress ofbrawn . and brain—Jim Griffeth,Bud Blumburg, Bob Meismer, TomJohnson, Dave Bushnell, LyleHanson, and Johnny Huntley.For you activity-starved indi¬viduals who’ve read this far, here’sa conglomeration of coming eventsand projects.

His mean birth and in¬significant beginnings, his militaryexploits, financial genius, andtragic end make for fascinatingreading. Driven by the ambitionto achieve personal success forhimself and national well-being .for America, he never hesitatedto use the surest means availableto achieve these ends. As a con¬sequence Hamilton’s politics giverise to many controversies. Some¬one has said that all people canbe divided into two groups, thosewho are glad the French Revolu¬tion occurred, and those who aresorry it happened; similarly, theycan be divided between thosewho admire Hamilton and thosewho con.sider his actions and in¬fluence to have been dangerous.The present biography is skill-, fully written and well documented,I but will probably make no con-I verts in either camp.
