Asa resident of the fourth floor of Kelly,I object to the unjustified, lurid andunsavory impression given by theopener: "A male sightseer was spotted inthe girls’ bathroom.” The term “sight¬seer” is not clarified until the end ofthe article. The whole slant of the arti¬cle reflects on the caliber of the houseand the responsibility of the house su¬pervisors, both of which are actuallyexcellent. The person In the basementwho told Taylor he could go upstairsundoubtedly thought he meant the firstfloor, which is open to men. A girl Isquoted as saying “I knew he was a man,but I didn’t think anything of it,”which also gives a bad impression whenthe MAROON fails to report her subse¬quent explanation of why she didn’tthink anything of It — the fact thatfathers are sometimes permitted to visittheir daughters’ rooms, and men. maycarry heavy articles for girls and theymight have mistakenly gone to thewrong room.Some people connected with theMAROON have described this article asan obvious Joke, but I feel that noteveryone who read it was well enoughacquainted with the facts to regard it assuch. The MAROON has turned thisincident into a sensation to liven thefront page without regard for the rep¬utations or feelings of members of thehouse.Carol Casper FOR MY VALENTINEA Book of PoetrySonnets from the Portuguese $ 2.00Love Poems of Six Centuries 3.50Harmonium—by Wallace Stevens 3.00Collected Poems, 1917-1952—by Archibald 4.00(Nat'l.

In other colonial countriesin the process of being freed hestated that this atmosphere is notpresent.“Changes induced by an out¬side agency are much less readilyabsorbed than in our civilization,”Grunebaoum said, because everyaction in Moslem life is regulatedby or derived from the Koran ortraditions which have been de¬rived from actions of the prophet. In the question period that fol¬lowed many of the questions dealtwith North Africa as Dr. Grune¬baoum had recently returnedfrom there.Tunisia, Grunebaoum consid¬ered to be more developed thanMorocco. In the latter all themodern settlements are Frenchor French induced. Tunisia ismore unified than Morocco, morecompact, and more homogenous.There are very few differencesamong the people, whereas hefelt that in southern Morocco na¬tionalism is more superficial thanit is in northern Morocco. Itwould be unpleasant for Moroccoif the French pulled out, he said;this is not so with Tunisia."Represents educationthat continues,"says GEORGE GALLUPFounder of Hie American Institute of Public Opinion; formerlyProfessor, Pulitzer School of Journalism, Columbia U."A serious weakness of the Americaneducational system is the missing linkbetween what we are taught in school andwhat we learn after leaving school.

The translation is the work of Associate Professor GerhardtMeyer, and was made with the assistance of Ned Polsky, a former student.Buechner, known in this country for his Danton’s Death and Wozzeck, the latter of whichformed the book for AlbanBerg’s opera, died in 1838 atthe age of twenty-three.Leonce and Lena, originally writ¬ten for a contest, arrived too lateand was returned unopened. Theauthor worked on it, off and on,for the last few months of hislife, but never completed it. Afterhis death, two quite different ver¬sions were published, and practicehas long been to combine the twoin workable form.Painful scholarship and com¬parison with the best extantGerman editions have gone intothis translation; above all, itattempts, more than its pred¬ecessor (Geoffrey Donlops’,1927, the only other Englishtranslation), to be as faithfulas possible to the original and to preserve Buechner’s poeticimagery.A comic-phantasy, the play art¬fully combines many contrastingelements. Leonce and Lena is acomedy of moods rather than ofaction and character develop¬ment, and one-sided emphasis onone single aspect does injustice tothe whole, that tends to grow outof its substantive as well as stylis¬tic contrasts. Yet it contains,in its central action, a characterdevelopment and a correspondingtheme or message: how the empti¬ness and hidden despair of a lifecharacterized-by blase melancholyis filled and overcome by the ex¬perience of genuine love.Professor Meyer, in a talk tothe actors involved, had this tosay: “There are contrasting ele¬ ments, like sharp political sa¬tire juxtaposed with near-tragicmonologues and dialogues ofself-scrutiny and with lyric,dream-like scenes of mutualrecognition and love, and these,as well as realism mixed withfairy-tale and comedia del'arteelements, tend both to strength¬en or to support each other andalso to question, restrain andsuspend each other. These qual¬ities, which make it one of themost playful of German com¬edies, may be interpreted as theauthor’s attempt to overcomein himself the deep pessimismof which his other works andhis letters give such a powerfulpicture, or to overcome ele¬ments of late decay-romanti-see “Buechner," page 7 Collegium Musicumpresents goodconcertLast Friday evening in Mandel Hall, the Collegium Musi¬cum, assisted by the University of Chicago Choir and con¬ducted by Richard Vikstrom, presented its first concert of theyear with a program consisting of the Symphony in E flatMajor of Karl Stamitz, theHaendel Concerto for Oboe,and Bach’s Cantat* 140,Wachet auf (Sleepers Awake).Vikstrom approached the lightbut pleasant music of Stamitzwith a rhythmic emphasis thatproved well fitted to the work.Probably the orchestra itselfcould have stood somewhat morerehearsal, for, particularly in theviolins where it would be mostnoticeable, there was some lackof precision, although the bodymaintained a fairly good tonethroughout.The Handel work was playedwith much competence both byconductor and oboeist.

After 50Years ofExperienceThe film opens with a pic¬torial narration of da Vinci’slife by means of some beauti¬fully composed shots of Italianlandscape and architecture and,although the approach is essen¬tially the hackneyed one of thetravelogue, the sequences are sostructured that, by their verybeauty and the mood they evoke,they transcend the effect of atravelogue with ease.An attempt is made, and quitesuccessfully, to maintain thefeeling of “the man of myste¬ry.” By means of a simple mu¬sical score that relies largelyupon effects (and upon a motifby Leonardo himself) and at notime makes itself unduly no¬ticeable, and by a visual rhythmin which variation is determinedonly in relation to the immedi¬ate subject rather than in thearbitrary manner of cutting be¬tween shots present in the ma¬ jority of art films, even thescenes with the technical draw¬ings of da Vinci which make upa large part of the film—withthe models made from them—are given a greater beauty andcontinuity.It is remarkable, in those partsof the film that deal with thepaintings, to see action, and thenrealize that the action is due en¬tirely to the mobile character ofda Vinci’s figures as brought outso well by simple devices of cam¬era movement and photographiccomposition.An apparent consummate un¬derstanding of the painter himself and his expression is shown inscenes in which the works areused to portray the man. In thescene describing da Vinci's fear ofthe impending end of the world, afew drawings are used within anaccellerando cutting tempo sothat the terror is forcibly im¬parted to the viewer.This is a film that is reallya pleasure to see, particularlyafter observing the extraordi¬nary amount of wasted cellulosebrought to the cinema housesin the past few months.

Marshall Field visits Mead HouseMarshall Field, Jr., editor and publisher of the Sun-Timesand UC trustee, called at Mead House on Jan. 29. Accom¬panied by Mrs. Field, he drank tea, ate supper, and discussedpolitics during a long evening program with the 46 residentsof Mead House.

Raskin said Field impressedMead residents as being "veryfriendly, popular and unpretenti¬ous,” and "showed himself to beinterested in the affairs of UCstudents.”During the political discussionField, who, according to severalpresent, struck them as thorough¬ly “independent and liberal,” ex¬plained the reasons for his sup¬port of President Eisenhower inthe recent national election. Hispreference for Eisenhower rested,he said, on a fundamental beliefin the two-party system of Amer¬ican politics, and the feeling thatit was "time for a change” after20 years under Democratic ad¬ministration.Regarding Stevenson, Fieldstated that he was a "very goodfriend” of the defeated Demo- it was his opinion that Stevensonhad been a "good” governor, andhad accomplished a great deal inclearing up the corruption of tfieprevious Republican administra¬tion and in introducing neededsocial reforms.Buechner...(from page 6)cism in himself and in his timeby a comedy which is at onceromantic, post-romantic, andanti-romantic.”For our contemporary situa¬tion, which is even more thanBuechners’ a time of existentialmeaninglessness and open or hid¬den despair, Buechner’s praise offulfilled laziness, and of lightlyand gracefully lived beauty, hismessage that even serious mes¬sages may well be questioned andremain in a kind of suspense—allthis may have real meaning forus today.Leonce and Lena is to be givenFebruary 13, 14, 15; and 21, 22, inthe little theatre in the ReynoldsClub, 8:30 p.m. Tickets are on sale at $1.00 at the Reynolds ClubDesk and at the Varsity TicketService in Woodworth’s Book¬store.Collegium ...(from page 6)tality in his playing might havebeen desirable.It was in the Bach cantata thatthe performing forces really dis¬tinguished themselves. The Choir,as always, took up Vikstrom’slead and sang with uninhibitedfervor when called for, and witha fairly subtle grace when neces¬sary. The soloists, particularlyHenri Noel, were quite adequatealthough, as with the chorus, onemight have liked to have betterunderstood the words.Vikstrom seems to understandthe work to be somewhat morethe tour de force than some mayconsider it, but within this concep¬tion, his presentation was a thor¬oughly unified and convincingone.With this debut as director ofthe Collegium M u s i c u m , Vik¬strom has shown a good tasteboth in programming, particular¬ly for the amateur group the Col¬legium is, and in interpretation. Itcan be hoped that, for the nextconcert, the control of the orches¬tra will be more within his graspand a yet more fruitful—and pos¬sibly more daring—concert willbe presented.D.

Many of Chicago’s finest sportswriters have, in the past few weeks, wondered just what was wrongwith the Varsity basketball team. Too often, they have come to theconclusion that since this isn’t a “sports school,” we just don’t careif we win. Headlines read. “Winless since ’50, Maroons aren’t down¬hearted,” (Chicago Sun-Times, Dec. 13, 1952); “They lose and havefun. Maroons undisturbed by defeat,” (Chicago Daily News, Jan. 13,1953). While it is true that our teams don’t roll up tremendous scoresor recruit players, it is not true that we don’t give a damn. UCteams still play to win.These articles have offered various and sundry suggestions as towhy the teams don’t win. “They don’t have enough practice; theyare too green; while individually talented, they don’t play as a team;their scholastic pressures are too great.” We on the MAROON havea different idea.The boys are lonely.while it is true that small devoted bands of students cheer thecagers each home game, it is also true that there are many rows ofempty seats. Perhaps the sight of a good-sized audience backingthem up would give the team the boost necessary to win a game ortwo. It certainly couldn’t do them any harm.The Varsity basketball team plays IIT tonight in the Field Houseat 8 p.m. Without trying to start a rah-rah trend, we neverthelesssuggest students attend tonight’s game and other games. After all,our team is making history.Harry Hirsch, Joy Smith, Larry Shaderowfsky, Bruce D. Larkin, GerrySchoenfeld, Robert H.

Editorials receiving a simplemajority may Be printed over the names of the approving at the discretionof the author."Harriers takeBeloit, JUs loseTaking 25 out of 27 points inthe distance runs Saturday, theVarsity track team routed BeloitCollege 6514-38%. Justin Johnson,who won the broad pump, tied forfirst in the high jump, and tooksecond in the 70-yard high hur¬dles, was high point man for theMaroons. Ken Stapley (with a2:05 time) loafed home first inthe 880-yard run, Captain PaulMichael won the 60-yard dash,and Walt Deike tied for first inboth the mile and two-mile runs.Jack Meardon tied Deike in themile, and Tim Nuveen tied withhim in the two-mile.The JVs were not so fortunate,losing a close meet to Tilden Tech,'49-37. After maintaining a slimlead over Tilden throughout mostof the meet, the JVs fell behindwhen Tilden took all three placesin the high jump and won the880-yard relay. Women's team winsThe women's Varsity basketballteam started the season Fridaynight with a 39-32 victory overBaptist Missionary TrainingSchool in the Ida Noyes gym.UC led BMTS throughout thewhole game except early in thethird quarter when BMTS pulledahead by two points. The poorshooting percentage of BMTS ledto their defeat. Betty Cope, UC,led the scoring on both teamswith 22 points.Both the Varsity and secondteam lost when the girls invadedGeorge Williams College on Tues¬day afternoon. The Varsity suc¬cumbed 20-14 while the secondteam was being swamped 41-24.At George Williams, the var¬sity became lost on the largecourt, and set up their plays be¬yond their shooting range. Inspite of the low score, the gamewas very fast and rough. Varsity loses,JU cagers winPlaying host to the Varsity bas¬ketball squad last Saturday, KnoxCollege apparently forgot themeaning of the word hospitality,defeating the Maroons, 81-45.Leading from the start theynever gave the UCers a change.There was a usual fourth quarterUC rally, but as usual it was acase of too little and too late.Chuck Juby scored 13 points tolead the UCers.Playing hard in a close game,the JV cagers defeated ChicagoChristian, 45-42 last Friday totake over undisputed possessionof first place in the F r i v a t eSchool League. Although ChicagoChristian had lost several of theirfirst string men by mid-year grad¬uation, they still gave the UCersa tough contest Fencers top NUThe Maroon fencers Saturdayavenged their previous defeat bvNorthwestern with a 19-8 rout ofthe Wildcats in Patton Gym.The UCers swept the sabreevent 9-0 with captain Don Baer,Dave Karcher and Joel Farbereach winning their three matches.The Maroons also won the foilevents by a score of 6-3. ErnieDunston beat all three of his op-pbnents and Jay Levine won twoout of thfee matches. In epee,Northwestern won by the closescore of 5-4.
