More andmore people have become aware of the striking inconsist¬ency involved in the practice of racial and religious dis¬crimination by schools which are supposedly preparing stu¬dents for life in a democracy. Students attend anthropologyand sociology classes and are told that prejudice is purehumbug; at the same time the very higher institutions oflearning in which these classes are given see fit to establisha quota system for the admission of students.Numerous articles have appeared in the last few yearsdocumenting this case against American colleges.In the October ’45 American Mercury Frank Kingdonnamed Columbia as having one “of the medical schoolswhich have a rigid quota system,” and he stated that “theenibllment of Jewish students here (at the Columbia medschool) dropped from 46.92 per cent in 1920 to 6.4 per centIn 1940.”Indeed, a few years ago Columbia suffered the ignominyof being dragged into court for allegedly discriminatingagainst Negroes in its medical school.Finally, as a crowning touch, there was an article in lastDecember’s issue of Junior Achievement written by theeditor of the Spectator (Columbia’s daily paper) to givehigh school pupils an insight into Columbia. In boastingthat only one out of five applicants are admitted to thecollege, the editor explained that the national origin ofapplicants is taken into account, so that the student bodycould be truly representative.Some may say that we have no business writing to you,that those who yell the most against discrimination onlyaggravate conditions. We don’t subscribe to this opinion.General, because we think that in a democracy inequalityshould be exposed and attacked by everyone. We have been'fighting against discrimination on our own campus, anda clear-cut, bold pronouncement by you would strengthenand encourage us and all others who are waging this battle.We are writing to you now, before you are installed aspresident, to let you know that you DO have support fromstudents in any steps you may take against the discrimina¬tory policies in effect at Columbia. Obviously, you will besubjected to great pressure. Columbia is one of the oldestschools in the country, and absorbed prejudices and tradi¬tions are the most difficult to break down. But they can,and must be, destroyed. General, if we are to take “educa¬tion” in its original meaning ... to leacj out. You will reallybe educating if you can lead people out of the abysmalignorance of prejudice.Your record in the Army indicates that you realized thatit’s not enough to fight blindly, you have to fight FORsomething.

Hutch¬ins statement said, in effect, thatfrats and football were only de¬vices to make education more pal¬atable to tho.se who don’t belongin college. The exchange papers,from other campuses that sub¬scribe to a wire .service, handledthe Hutchins statement in variousways ranging from the tongue incheek front page box of the Dailymini to the Iowa State Dailywhich editorialized at length un¬der a head that said simply“Hutchin’s Folly.”The other publicity agent forthe University, Mortimer Adler,almost made it across the boardon the Luce agenda—with his103 Great Ideas Index—missingonly the ARCHITECTURALFORUM and, thus far, FOR¬TUNE. We suspect that the in¬congruity of the administrationbuilding in its modified gothicsurroundings will come in for aspread fn the former while thelatter will conduct a poll on‘‘Why I won’t send my boy tothe University of Chicago.” Theusual clippings from Adler’s 103idea catalog are still dribblingin. The Hearst Daily Mirror, aswas reported in last week’sMAROON, decided that theywould not send their offspringto Chicago (Thank God) whilea letter appearing in LIFEmagazine came to the same eon-clusion via a different route.Any day now a movement par¬alleling the various women’spacifist organizations that ex¬isted prior to the last war willsoon spring up with slogans suchas: ”18 Titles of Freud?—Wewon’t send our sons and daugh-’ters to Chicago” . . ,The recent edict from Moscowasserting that the big three inRussion music; Shostakovitch,Prokofiev and Katchaturian, havebeen chewed out for composingbourgeois music raised a few eye¬brows on campus. We don’t knowwhat constitutes a piece of bour¬geois music, but we do know that,in our glandularly uncritical opin¬ion, that Katchaturian was begin¬ning to write unmusical music.The committee probably got peevedwhen Fred Waring added the Sa¬ber Dance to his repotire.Stagnation is setting in.

You lament the fact that.some of your members are beingleft out in the cold outside theWash Prom because the males oncampus seem to be ‘‘too timid toask a girl.” To me this i.s just another variation of the storythat while men invent such thingsas Bendixes, mangles, vacuumcleaners, dishwashers, etc. to makehousekeeping easier for womenthe women still want a man toturn on the switch.Finances is cruxConversely, w’hat talk or crltl,cism I have heard around BJ andelsewhere is not about the short¬age of females or the fear of them,but rather about the little matterof iinances. In my case, for in¬stance, I am a lowly college stu¬dent, who at present is attempt¬ing to ward off the slow advanceof insolvency till Uncle Sam getsaround to paying me my incometax refund (in the near future, Ihope). However, you females areolder than I, and you would prob¬ably go out with older studentswho are largely in the divi'iions.In spite of several married maleshere, there are atill several leftfrom the present 2-1, man-womanratio on campus, but a good shareof these are ex-GI’s who don'thavfe a lot of money to throwaround. In my estimation theWash Prom will cost a bare mini¬mum of $10-15 per couple by thetime bids, corsage, and in manyca.ses food and transportation be¬fore and/or after the dance arepaid for. Maybe I’m mercenaiT,but even in the.se days, ‘‘that ain'thay.” True, this only happens oncea year, but so do income tax re¬funds, etc.Need Wosh Prom?You gals seem in favor of maleshaving female companionship, butIs the Wash Prom the prime requi¬site for such? The music will nodoubt be good, and you may alsobe thinking of the ad in the last ^MAROON which ran “If NatureWon't the Washington Prom Will,”whatever that implies. By divulg¬ing ages in your letter, I can >eethat some of you appear to begrowing fearful of eternal spin-sterhood, which predicament youthink the Wash Prom might evenhelp to alleviate. From some of theideas you reveal in your letter. Ithink that from now on, single ,males, rather than females, yillneed a Pinkerton escort ‘ acro.ssthe dark campus” till leap yearis over.No, I don’t think I’ll be going tothe prom, at least not according topresent speculations.

Februofy 20, 1948 THE CHICAGO MAROONMore MailTo the Editor:wish to protest the impro-nriety on your part in printing, inlast week’s MAROON, an unsignedletter which viciously and violentlyslung assorted invectives at acouple of instructors in the Col¬lege. Without wishing to deal witheither the Coach Norgren matteror the actual abilities of the‘in¬structors in question, we would likeio point out that there are certainlimits of decency for criticism ingeneral and for criticism of facultyby students in particular. We feelthat it is the MAROON’s respon¬sibility to observe these limits,even if its correspondents do noCThere is a certain type of re¬spectfulness that should charac¬terize the attitude of any studentto any faculty member. The com¬munication of knowledge is ofcourse a two-way process, but thepersonal relationship between theteacher and student is at the heartot a university and must not beshattered by reckless, insultingcomments in as public a place asthe campus newspaper.’ The letterof course made not even the vagu¬est of efforts to really discuss thecharges it made, and although the language used was sufficientlypolysyllabic to indicate some in¬telligence on the part of the au¬thor, the facility with which firstMr. Zink, then Mr. Isenberg, andfinally David Hume were broughtunder the lash shows a markedunawareness of what is proper insuch matters. All the more reasonfor the editor to have refused toprint the letter. As it is, however,the damage is considerable andirreparable; we hope it will notbe permitted again in the future.Howard KaminskyF. G. Steinert Charles BoxenbaumTo the Editor:'That insulting letter by a name¬less author, concerning Mr. Lsen-berg, the basketball team andother subjects should not go un¬answered.We are Physical Science majorsand know little of the inner work¬ings of the Humanities Depart¬ment. But having had Mr. Isen¬berg as a Humanities 2 instructorand as an advisor, we offer thefollowing comment:First: the letter had no con¬structive criticisms, much name calling, and a few vague referencesto .some academic dispute whichthe author apparently reduced toarguing by insult.Second: our experiences withMr. Isenberg have shown us thathe is a very fair and reasonableman. He has been an able discus¬sion leader, and an advisor sin¬cerely interested in the welfare ofthose students whom he advises.P'inally: We suggest to the Ma¬roon that in the future when in¬fantile letters of that sort appear:the author’s names be publishedalong with their letters, so theymay be held accountable for theirwords.C.

Third in succes¬sion to the throne, the scion ofthe Danish royal house whichrules Greece came not as a prince,however, but as a scholar. Ananthropologist of note, specializingin the Near East and Tibet, he isin the U. S. to visit educators inthat field.Colwell welcomes princeNeedless to say, the title ofprince is “open sesame” to thedoors of almost any university; aprince who is a scientist is doublywelcome. In the words of Presi¬dent Colwell, “the University ishonored by your visit.”He arrived at President Colwell'soffice at 11:30 a.m., where, afterMr. Colwell had greeted him, theMAROON button-holed him for abrief interview. Naturally, thedominant question in our mindwas: “How about a statement onthe Greek political situation?” ThePrince affably declined to answerthat, asserting that his visit wasnot official—that he was seekinga respite from the burden of po¬litical activity. He merely cameto America to pursue his studiesand travel a bit.He is a "liberal"The Prince did make one com¬ment about politics, however; hesaid that he found politics in theU. S. “liberal, which is pleasant.”His impression of the U. S. is oneof “overwhelming vastness andrichness.” Not surprising com¬ments when one considers thepresent state of Greece.After the interview, the Prince,in company with President Col¬well and Sol Tax, Assistant Pro¬fessor of Anthropology who hadarranged a “shop talk” luncheonin his honor, left for the Quad¬rangle Club.Latest 'Pulse'quite repulsiveBy JOHN STONEPulse, complete with sterile and stale vulgarities, hasmoved this week to even soggier glories.Functioning apparently on the theory that all creativewriting done by students serves some mystic higher pur¬pose, Pulse presents impotent attempts at satire and vari¬ous posturings of literary effect. The stories are juvenile;the poetry something less than inspired.Pulse’s critical writers, however,deserve something better. Thewell - written dead - serious essaysmerit far more emphasis thanPulse’s adolescent literati andblighte'd wits. At least four articles,those by Engberg, Steiner, Kil¬patrick and Moskowitz, are suf¬ficiently informative and stimu¬lating to be really first rate.Ed Engberg in his streamlinedmanner raises the whole problemof contemporary journalism. Eng¬berg’s thorough comprehension ofhis subject and his broad outlookmake “Presstitution” the most ex¬pert and satisfying piece in themagazine. It is certainly unhappythat Pulse does not live up to sucha standard.Steiner prose rewardingFrancis George Steiner’s usualscholarly and meticulous prose isrewarding. C. E. Kilpatrick’s col¬umns on Andre Gide are informal,easy and pleasant.And we can only cry our “sec¬onds” to Milton Moskowitz' welldocumented attack on J. DonaldAdams of the Times.UMT piece bodAs for the other articles—well,let’s be polite. The UMT piece,with its exaggerated sincerity anddogmatism, was as tiresome as an English 2 paper. And we cannotbut suspect that Eugene RivardDuFresne has the feel of the soap¬box under his feet.The editors of Pulse undoubtedlyface their problems. Whether thereis such a dearth of student talentto make impossible a consistentlygood issue, we do not know. Forthe few good articles, though, thereis much copy which should neverhave seen print.Bock cover goodThe overall picture of Pulse issuggestive of little but unevenness.If Pulse has moved away from the“college humour” sheet, at themoment it seems to be vibratingbetween something like GoodHousekeeping’s naivete and a re¬juvenated Review. We suspect theultimate vision of Pulse is the NewYorker, or some such. But what¬ever Pulse’s goal, and we do notpretend to have extrasensory pre-ception, it doesn’t seem to havequite made it.Despite the surreal implicationsof the cover, a reasonable editorial,and a charming color plate of RiseStevens on the back, Pulse offerslittle more than a few good writersand boredom.Bartenders to news editors, Milton Hindus, Asst.

World Playhouse.There are some who claim thatthe Italian Renaissance camesome time around the end of theMiddle Ages. It is my contentionthat it started when Sergio Amideibegan to make films.Experience ropid revivalSeldom, perhaps never in his¬tory, has such a rapid revival fol¬lowed so absolute a death asItalian culture experienced dur¬ing the years of fascism.Those who hold the opinion thata work of art is somehow spoiledby contact with everyday life, thatit gains in excellence as it ap¬proaches a fleshless algebra, thatit should serve only as an anodynefor the “pain of living,” will findthis state of affairs totally incom¬prehensible. They will not only beunable to see why a revival hascome at this time, but they cannoteven see why art died underfascism.Art fights FoscismBut when a man sees in an art-form a weapon with which to fightfor his freedom, it is different. Isit not easy to picture a genius ofthe calibre of Amidei perceivingthe damage done to his homelandby fascism and finding that someof the coils of the serpent retainedlife, forging steel for its final de¬struction? The entire plot of Shoc- shine is concerned with the distor¬tion the web of authority works onhuman life and human aspirations.The two boys, Pasqua’ andGiuse’, have one simple but loftyambition: to own a horse. Onefeels so free, powerful, and adulton a horse! To get the money tobuy one, they act as agents for ablack market operator. Caught,they are held in an overcrowdedprison for a wholly mechanicaltrial, and sentenced. Trapped inan irrational world in which onlyadults seem to be able to maketheir way, they fall out, pitted oneagainst the other by the evil forcesaround them. The film ends as oneof the boys kills his companionfrom jealousy engendered by theseforces.Actors ore reolistsThe child actors are completelyrealistic. There is nothing in thefilm that has not been a part oftheir daily Ijves. It is in the abilityto take the materials of daily lifeand to abstract significantly fromthem that the genius of Amideilies.GRAPES OF WRATH.

There is verylittle in the music that holds theinterest.Borfok's composition over-longBela Bartok’s first quartet fol¬lowed. Before Bartok’s death hisgeneral reputation was small. To¬day the other extreme hsis beenreached. The musical canonizationof Bartok, however, affords littlereason for the performance of hisFirst Quartet. The compositionseemed inordinately long. Perhapsone might draw a parallel to mar¬ried life and say that it wasn’tlong; it just seemed long.The quartet was Bartok’s firstand, as is so often the case withearly works, did not approach thestandards of the later output Thestrong harmonies and character¬istic string writing of Bartok’smature works were not present. This column is just going to look at all thisfrom a distance and choose what to us seems mostinteresting and prevocative.Lately Carl Sandburg listed his favorite recentreading for the Sunday book supplement of the NewYork Herald 'Tribune. At the top of his list of sixbooks was The Neon Wilderness by Nelson Algren.(Doubleday & Co., $2.50.)The Neon Wilderness, a book of short stories, isa worthy successor to Nelson Algren’s remarkablenovel. Never Come Morning, which caused ErnestHemingway to evaluate Algren with Faulkner as thetwo best living American writers. A copy of NeverCome Morning, published in 1942, still bannedfrom public libraries, still attacked by prudes andhypocrites, is impossible to find. Recently an oldbeat-up copy, discovered in a used book store, soldfor tv/ice its original price. In this novel Algren dealtwith the people in the Polish neighborhood of Chi¬cago, with more understanding, control of language,and unity of theme than its better-known forerun¬ner Studs Longan by James Farrell.When Never Come Morning came out it took abeating—it got lost between the full page ads sell¬ing the “Gus the Greats” and “Forever Ambers” of'41. The publication of “The Neon Wilderness” givesmany more readers the chance to get a solid look atAlgren’.s writing.In The Neon Wilderness we see the same Algren,pessimistic to a degree, and yet inherently contra¬ dicting this pessimism with the powerful creationof live, whole, three-dimensional people. Algren lis¬tens to people talk, lives close to them, understandsthe essence of their existence and comes out withstories full of compassion and with undertones ofpoetry. His fiyest stories in this collection comparewith the best in Maxim Gorky and with sections ofhis own Never Come Morning.There is “A Bottle of Milk for Mother,” a storyabout Bruno Left Bicek of the Polish Warriors andthe Racine Street Police. There is “Please Don’t TalkAbout Me When I’m Gone.” It starts—“You knowwhat I was thinkin’ when that crowd moved back alittle to make room for me to get into the wagon?I was thinkin’, my whole life it’s the first time any¬one made room for me. ...” There are other stories—“How the Devil Came Down Division Street,” “ALot You Got to Holler,” “He Couldn’t Boogie-WoogieWorth a Damn.” These are stories that in no waymake speeches or get maudlin. The things they saygrow straight out of the people in them. Except forthe first story, which I don’t believe is one, everystory is finished and well executed.Algren, possibly better than anyone else rightnow, combines and creates one thing out of“It’s a Barnum and Bailey worldJust as phony as it can be ”and Whitman’s“I feel I am of them—I belong to those convicts and prostitutes myself.And henceforth I will not deny them—For how can I deny myself?”Nelson Algren is a faithful Midwesterner. Neitherthe fleshpots of Hollywood nor of New York havelured him—he’s a Chicago West-Sider and likely tostay that way. After stretcher-bearing in Franceand Germany through some of the worst action inthe past war, Algren is back in Chicago working ona new novel. I say, do yourself a favor, read him.It won’t faintly resemble the Saturday EveningPost.By Norman Springer.position not only brought them^ . closer to the audience, but, becausehe work was interesting from qj acoustics of the hall, vastlyone point of view. One could seefrom what the qualities of Bar-tok.’s later works developed. Theinterest in the horizontal, for ex¬ample, was to be found in theearly work.Beethoven concludes progromThe program concluded with theperformance of Beethoven’s Opus95 Quartet. The music playedearlier on the program emphasizedthe admirable qualities of thiswork.The Roth Quartet Introducedsomething new tor which they are-to be applauded. Rather than per¬form on the stage they playedfrom the small raised platform infront of the stage. This change of improved the quality of tone. It ishoped that this change will be¬come the custom.

The way that Nels handleshis team would be rather laugh¬able if it weren’t for the disap¬pointment it brings to many play¬ers. In his case, the lack of fairplay comes from either poor pow¬ers of observation or lethargy. Asthe MAROON pointed out, many debategood players go out for the teambut are unwilling to stick aroundfor a few years in order to getnoticed, and so decide to quit. Tothose who do stick around, Nels’personality has hardly a steadyingeffect. Although normally pos¬sessed of a fabulous phlegm, dur¬ing the games he takes on a nerv¬ous excitement which he usuallyrelays to the players in the formof biting criticism.I have discussed Chicago basket¬ball with two former students atthis school one is now an instruc¬tor) and they tell me that Norgrenwas not very highly esteemed intheir day, either, and that thesame sort of gripes were then cur¬rent among the athletes.Policy encourogesIt occurs to me that to men ofthis stamp, the security of nlwayshaving their jobs dispite poor rec¬ords just encourages their short¬comings. I believe that a coachshould have security, but before acoach is selected his ethics, as wellas his knowledge of the game,should be proven to be of a highorder, and his job should dependon these qualities rather than awon-less record. With this sort ofpolicy in operation, I’m sure thatthere will be rewarding athleticexperiences for those who enioythem, under our framework of de¬emphasis.FAVORITE fORG ...CHICHGO rORSTThe Maroons are all assembled with their glasses raised for a toastto the C that rings from the towers of Rockefellerto the Harper stacks.
