Advance in-The formation indicates theReunion largest attendance since theq u a r t e r-centennial. Thegradual organization of the alumni hasreached a point now which is not only farbeyond what was looked for five yearsago, but which also compares more thanfavorably with anything to be foundamong our sister institutions of the west,older though they may be. One still lookswith longing interest at the solidity andbreadth of such alumni associations ascharacterize Harvard and Yale; but onelooks no longer with despair. The roadahead may be a long one, but it liesstraight ahead. Year by year as thealumni and alumnae return they see notonly the growing power of the university,but the growing consciousness of its individuality. It is ripening — one dare notsay, in these days of prohibition and theLever Act, like wine; one -will say, then,like philosophy. It is coming to understand itself; its crude early strength issoftening into appeal. Come back andfind yourself anew; by the old landmarksyou may gauge the distance and directionof your own progress.The strength of the alumni organizationmay be measured very definitely by two ofits accomplishments of theThe past year — the Directory andDirectory the launching of the Alumniand the Fund Fund. The directory, nowin process of distribution,is a remarkable piece of work. In soscattered a clientele as that of the university, the securing and unification oftwelve thousand addresses, including practically all of those holding any degreefrom the university, called for an amountof sustained effort that up to this yearwas quite out of the question. The distribution of the directory to alumni at theprice of one dollar is entirely unprecedented. One is inclined to say, in thistime of high costs, "there ain't no suchanimile." But there is. And its information has been checked and rechecked untilit is possible to say that if you want toknow what and where anybody is whomyou remember from the days gone by, youcan find it here. As for the alumni fund,that, as many of you know from the circular of the Alumni Council publishedApril 15, is beyond all comparison themost noteworthy thing of the sort in anyinstitution west of the Alleghenies. ByApril 15 a total of $76,501 had been subscribed, $18,000 of it by alumnae; and$27,677.50, or more than one-third of thewhole subscription, had been paid in.There were 510 individual subscribers, ofwhom 228 were women. The largestnumber of subscribers from a single classwas 37, from 1911; the largest amount$9,101, from the class of 1907. When youreflect that this subscription is for theorganization and development of thealumni association merely, so that it canwork more effectively for the furtheranceof the aims of the university, the size andstrength of the contribution becomes apparent. A very admirable thing for youto do, if your name appears on the list ofsubscribers, is to take the new directory,look up the addresses of ten or twenty ofyour friends whose names are not on thelist, and write them personally about thefund. A lot of you whose names are notthere may expect such letters from methis summer; I give you fair warning now.THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINEA new organization which will take areal part in the reunion this June is theCampus Club, made up ofThe Campus well-known undergraduatesClub not members of fraternities.The object of the club, asthe club states it, is to give its members"a better realization and enjoyment ofcampus opportunities, and so foster inthem a spirit of pride and loyalty towardthe alma mater." This effort is to be extended hereafter among the alumni. TheClub announces its first annual alumnidinner, on Friday, June 11, at 6:15, inHutchinson Cafe. It invites every alumnus; its special invitation is to those whohave no fraternity affiliations. Thespeeches will be short and notable, as thelife of the club has been so far. I knowthe club pretty well, and I can promiseevery alumnus who attends the dinner thathe will meet and be heartily welcomed byas vigorous, hard-headed, ambitious, andintelligent a group of young men as heever sat in with. Their object in givingthis dinner is to further the welcome ofthe university as a whole to returningalumni; and if you plan to be here on Friday you will make a great mistake if youdo not attend the Campus Club dinner.Whether the club will endure or not is on «the knees of the gods. Certainly the need/ of it is great, and is being intelligentlymet at present.Goodbye,Jim, TakeCare ofYourselfThe resignation of Dean James RolandAngell, and his acceptance of the headship of the Carnegie Foundation Corporation, has beena great blow to the university. When George Vincent left the deanship ofthe faculties to becomepresident . of Minnesota we felt that wehad lost our right arm. Angell grewanother for us. Now that is gone. Well,we shall grow a third good arm, and afourth when necessary, no doubt of that;but how shall we replace Angell? "Anddid you once see Shelley plain?" We havescholarship, and we have humanity, and wehave efficiency, but sometimes it seems asif a remarkable combination of the threeas we had in Angell was a little rare.This is the moment to wish him Godspeed,and I do. May he be as successful inspending his seven million or so a year onthe world as he was in spending himselfon the university. But I can't help re-greting personally the unfortunate intelligence of the directors of the CarnegieFoundation.The Shanty — Home Again!The Shanty, erected by the ninety-naughties, no, the naughty-nineties, last June, will henceforth be a center of Reunion gatherings.Come and see the Royal Gorge.

ProfessorFrank J. Miller of the department of Latinspoke on recent developments of the University of Chicago and emphasized theneed of the university spirit in the light ofpresent day world problems.

The men of the Clubhave luncheon together every third Wednesday of the month and find so much totalk over every time that the affair neverbreaks up on time. By the end of the second hour national politics have been decided, Dave Stewart has been interviewedregarding his failure to attend certain meetings, and the war fought over with variousimprovements.A big all-day party has been planned forwhen the present undergraduates returnthis June. The guests of honor at the affairwill be the students who entered the University from here last fall. From that cal-lection of talent the members anticipatemuch entertainment, as each new memberwill be required to illustrate how he wasbenefited by Public Speaking.Rudy Knepper, the youthful golf star,will speak on "Jazz Bands I Have Heard,"Dan Fuller will give his impressions of thecampus sirens, and Jack Moore is expectedto thrill the ladies by his tales of Harperand its possibilities.The Club is doing more than holdingmeetings and kidding each other, however,for some of the best students and star athletes of the local High School have decidedto enter the University this coming fall asa result of work on the part of the members.

Mentzer, secretary, Mrs. Davida HarperEaton, Elinor Flood', Mrs. Henry G. Gale,Dean Henry G. Gale, Gilbert Bliss, HoraceLozier, and (ex-officio) A. G. Pierrot. Mrs.Nott Flint, Mr. Stagg, "Teddy" Linn, ScottBond, and John Hagey, treasurer, were unable to be present, but sent in word thatthey would abide by the decisions of thismeeting and would assist in the work whencalled upon.Those present expressed the belief thatin the "Shanty" an excellent reunion feature had been started. It was a characteristic feature that, judging by the successof last year, attracted the older alumni as agroup. It was voted that as each classobserves it's twentieth anniversary it shouldbecome eligible for "Shanty" membership,and be duly initiated at the annual"Shanty" ceremonies; at the same time,members of the faculty who had been onthe faculty for twenty years should likewise become eligible and be likewise initiated.It was decided that each year, at 5 o'clockon Alumni Day, there should be a special,brief "Shanty" program. Incidentally, a"Shanty" song has been written for theoccasion, and it is expected that each yearverses will be added by the newly initiatedclass.In order to have the "Shanty" feature ofthe Reunion conducted smoothly and successfully, the following organization waseffected: Building Committee, Henry G.Gale, Gilbert Bliss, and A. A. Stagg, with"Jimmie" Touhig and "Billie" Ingham asmembers honoris causa; Operating Committee, Josephine Allin, Mrs. Davida Harper Eaton, Elinor Flood, and John P.Mentzer; Program Committee, Mrs. NottFlint, Mrs. Henry Gale, "Teddy" Linn, andHorace Lozier; Lozier has promised a finequartette to start the new song right. TheMaroon tam-o-shanters and ancient "eats"will again be in evidence. Everybody welcome!James M. Sheldon, '03, Chairman of 1920ReunionJames M. Sheldon, '03, the famous "Jimmie," Captain of the 1902 football team,is Reunion Chairman this year. He is withJohn Burnham & Co., investments, Chicagooffice.

Those who knew the Unionduring the war will be especially interestedin its progress and plans. Though itswork of war-relief is ended, the Union stillaims to serve freely the interests of American college men abroad. It seeks also tomaintain definitely the friendly relationsbetween American and European universities which were strengthened during thewar, and which, in times of peace, areequally important to mutual understandingand good will.From the outset, the Union recognizedthe possibility of developing a permanentinstitution to serve American students andAmerican educational interests abroad. Theimportance of maintaining its work • permanently was decisively recognized byBritish and French governmental and educational leaders, including the BritishMinister of Education, the French Minister of Public Instruction, and the heads ofnumerous British and French universities.After conference with the American institutions in its membership, and withother bodies interested in international education, it was definitely decided to maintain the Union. Fifty American universities, college, and higher technical schoolsthroughout the United States have alreadyunited in support of the Union for its workin times of peace. Its Board of Trustees,chosen on a representative basis, includesthe heads of ten American universities an-dcolleges, and officers and alumni of variousother institutions. Its membership is asfollows:Institutional Trustees: Mr. HowardFletcher, University of California; President Judson, University of Chicago; Professor Cunliffe, Columbia LTniversity;President Schurman, Cornell University;President Lowell, Harvard University; Acting President Kinley, University 6f Illinois;President Hutchins, University of Michigan; Chancellor Brown, New York University; Dean Emeritus Holgate, Northwestern University; Mr. Samuel Houston,University of Pennsylvania; PresidentHibben, Princeton University; SecretaryStokes, Yale University.Association Trustees: From Association of American Colleges — PresidentShanklin, Wesleyan; President Main, Grin-nell; Secretary Robert Kelly. From American Association of University Professors— Professor H. W. Tyler, MassachusettsInstitute of Technology; Professor A. O. Lovejoy, Johns Hopkins; Professor Edward Capps, Princeton.Elective Trustees: Mr. William R. Castle, Jr., President Frank J. Goodnow, Professor George Nettleton, Mr. Henry B.Thompson.Ex-Officio Trustees — Dr. Capen, Directorof the American Council on Education;Dr. Duggan, Director of the Institute ofInternational Education.The Union has already established newheadquarters as follows: (1) For the British Division, at 50 Russell Square, London, in the building with the UniversitiesBureau of the British Empire, near theBritish Museum; (2) for the ContinentalDivision, at 1 Rue de Fleurus, oppositethe Jardin du Luxembourg, Paris.These headquarters and their facilitiesfor service are described in the new pamphlet of the Union, which may be obtained from the Secretary of the Board ofTrustees, Professor J. W. Cunliffe, Journalism Building, Columbia University, NewYork City.The Municipal Council of the City ofParis has generously offered a valuableand admirably chosen site, in the midst ofthe chief educational institutions of Paris,on which the Union plans ultimately tobuild. In this building it is expected toperpetuate, in appropriate form of memorial, the record of the overseas serviceof American college men, and in particular of the sacrifice of those who gave theirlives in the war.Since its foundation, in 1917, the Unionhas been supported (i) by dues from American universities and colleges in its membership, (2) by individual gifts to currentincome. Throughout the war, the Union,though offering its facilities freely to allAmerican college men and their friends.was maintained without any general appealfor funds. With its establishment on adefinite peace basis, the need for moreadequate financial resources is evident. Thepresent membership dues of universitiesand colleges provide somewhat less thanhalf the curret budget. The present Boardof Trustees has accordingly appointedfrom its membership a Finance Committee of five, and has unanimously authorized the raising of funds to meet its current and permanent needs.To meet the more immediate generalneeds of the Union, (he Trustees have approved the raising of a fund of $300,000 forthe maintenance and endowment of thegeneral work of the Union.

When the senior men sprout mustaches the rest of the campus is sure tobe busy.For example, the Blackfriars and their1920 production, "Barbara, Behave," written by Harold Stansbury, '20, and JamesSheean, '21, is one of the activities keepingundergraduates busy. Barbara will behave and misbehave on the nights of May21, 22, 28 and 29, and on the afternoonsof May ,22 and 29. Mr. E. Mortimer Shuter,who has been putting on the Michiganshow for several years, is coaching theFriars' production, and right now he isbusy teaching songs and dance-steps andlines to the chorus and cast. Tryouts inApril netted about 200 aspirants. Fromthis number a chorus of about 40 was selected and a cast of 10. Charles Breasted,William Gemmill, Chancellor Dougal, Gerald Westby, Bernard McDonald and G. H.Binz, 1920; Glenn Harding, 1921; EdwardWaful, 1922; Kenneth Richardson, JacksonMoore, and Bayard Clinch, 1923, will havecast parts. Early in April the judges selected 24 musical numbers from the manysent in, and the score is now on the press.Mr. Frank Barry will lead the orchestrathis year. Miss Jean Pickett, '20, "the onlywoman connected with the show," has beenselected to head the 20 score-sellers. Modern gowns will be procured from MarshallField & Co., and from all I have heard theywill surpass any former Friar costumes.The set this year will cost more than itever has. "Barbara, Behave!" promises tobe the best of the Friar shows, and the way the staff and the coach are workingit looks as if that promise would be madegood.That Senior VaudevilleA real Event took place on the eveningof April 23. The senior class presented thefirst annual senior vaudeville in MandelHall. This was not the hit-or-miss seniorshow, but a vaudeville with talent enlistedfrom the various classes and so utilizedthat the program was a delight! Undoubtedly it was one of the "hits" of the campus year, and the packed house felt thatit had received full vaiue for the admissionprice. The show will be given again atthe June Reunion with a 30-piece orchestra,and some of the best Blackfriar numbers.A farewell banquet in honor of the departing "Pat" Page was held at the DelPrado April 9. About 200 were present —the limit of the hall. Prof. "Artie" Scottacted as toastmaster, and Lawrence Whiting and John Schommer were among thespeakers. A really handsome gift in theform of a chest of silver was given to Patby the undergraduates and alumni. Following the banquet, some of the undergraduates removed themselves to a -dancein Bartlett to chase away the gloom.The finals in the Interfraternity Bowlingtournament were held in April, the cup going to Kappa Sigma. Alpha Delta Phi werethe unlucky opponents. The Interfraternity Council elected Jack Fulton, '21, toserve as president during the 1920-1921season. Other officers are: Chalmer Mc-Williams, '21, vice-president; Joseph Hall,'21, recording secretary; Paul Humphrey,(Continued on page 274)CAMPUS CLUB 2551The Campus Club->«——"*In the last year there has been a curious,but very definite movement on the part ofundergraduates to organize into new social groups. At least five fraternities havebeen founded or revived in the last year,and one larger organization, the CampusClub, has also been formed. The CampusClub was founded in the Autumn Quarter,by a number of men who thought that anorganization of men not members of fraternities would be an asset to its membersand to the University.The term "non-fraternity" is one thatmust be used cautiously, because it is verylikely to imply an enmity toward the olderkind of organization. Yet there is no otherlabel quite so convenient, for the membersof the Campus Club are men who are notmembers of fraternities. But the club isnot a spite organization, or a disgruntledorganization, and it is not out attemptingto stir up any conflict. Those behind theclub believe that it is possible to advancethe members, and so help both the menand Chicago, without harm to any othergroup. The undergraduates largely realizethis, and so far no feeling of enmity hasdeveloped. In passing, it might be saidthat at least twenty members of the Campus Club have been pledged to fraternitiessince the club was formed, and the menhad an opportunity to show their ability.The attitude of the Campus Club has beenthat such a result is both natural and desirable; men will probably be pledged bythe fraternities each year. As time goeson, however, and the Campus Club establishes itself more solidly, the members willvery likely come to feel that their organization offers as much as any fraternity,and that they would prefer to remain withthe club.It is one of the purposes of the CampusClub to encourage its members to takepart in student activities, but it is not theaim of the club to attempt any politicalmachine methods. If the club has a manfitted for office, that man naturally will berun, but on his merits, and not on any"anti-Fraternity" issue. The kind of opposition that this method will offer will forcethe selection of a better type of candidate,but that is a beneficial result. Many activities, however, are not of the election type,and here the Campus Club will attempt tosupply the encouragement that many unaffiliated men have lacked in the past.Most of the campus activities are represented in the members of the club, andthese men can show the others the wayto get started.The purpose of getting men to take part Hull Gate Is Wide Open for the 1920 Reunion. Welcome!in activities, is not for the sake of theactivities themselves, but as a means toan end. The friendships of college resultfrom the better acquaintance that resultswhen men work together in an effort to dosomething, and those friendships are valuable both to the men and to the Ur.iver- 'sity of Chicago. The Campus Club hopesas a result of its work that there will bemore undergraduates interested in Chicago, and therefore more interested alumni.Give Alumni BanquetThe Campus Club is promoting, with thehelp of the Alumni Council, the first annual Campus Club Alumni Dinner, whichwill be held on Friday, June 11, at 6:00 inHutchinson Cafe. The effort is to give thealumni who have not a fraternity houseto go to on the night of the UniversitySing, a congenial meeting place. Fraternity men, or at least those whose chaptersare still active, usually return to the"house" for dinner the night of the University Sing. The Campus Club Dinner isfor those Chicago men who do not have adefinite group to return to. There will bea good dinner, and some short talks byalumni, and some undergraduate entertainment, ending in time for the Sing anda chance to meet friends. Le Roy Baldridge, Tom Cassiday, and Jose Hoover arethe alumni the Campus Club will probablyhave to give the talks. Further announcement, and a reservation slip, will be sentout in the Reunion Program.THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINEAy— u—u—n—H^ii— "—"—"— ■■"•■<—"—"~ll~"~"—»~" ' ' ■ ■■—■■—■— — ii— ii— ■i-^ii^oi— ■■— ■*^"— '■• 4*j The Blackfriars: "Barbara, Behave!" j4. _.._.._.._.— a,—..—..—..—.. a.—,,—..—,.—..—..—,—..—..—.——..—..—.—..—..—..—"— ■— *Bayard Clinch, '23, as Gwendolyn Cad-wallader-YorkeThe Blackfriars are doing something thisyear they have, never done before.

It is to be played in MandelHall Friday evenings, May 21 and 28, andSaturday afternoons and evenings, May 22and 29. The popular priced matinees, by theway, are another new feature.The men who are responsible for themodernity of this year's production areJames Vincent Sheean, '21, and HaroldStansbury, '20, the authors. Explanationof their introduction of the novel thememust lie in the fact that they, being themselves undergraduates, realized what a farceundergraduate life may be.Being undergrads, however, does notmean a dearth of literary experience on thepart of either of the collaborators. Thecontrary. Sheean came to college with atypewriter under each arm. Started right inas a Freshman by working on the Maroonand writing a successful one-act play, "TheLady With the Midnight Hair," for theDramatic Club. Since then he has writtennews for the United Press, United News andthe Herald and Examiner. He has contributed articles for the Musical Leader andthe Daily News, having been quoted in such current compilations as The LiteraryDigest.No less successful has been the career ofStansbury. Instead of being born with asilver spoon, he arrived with a well-formulated desire to become the author of aBlackfriar extravaganza. By way of earlypractice he originated a humorous columnin his high school paper which has becomean institution. As a follow-up he becamefeature editor of the Maroon, where he iseven now the spirit behind the well-knownanthology of analeptic apothegms, theCampus Whistle. His line is noted for itsheat, although he has cooled off enoughat times to do book reviews, etc., for theDaily News.So with the work of these two as a basis,Charles B.

Mortimer Shuter, acoach who comes to the Friars with wideexperience in his profession. Mr. Shuter'straining in foreign theaters, notably thoseof London, has been supplemented in thiscountry by commissions of producing forKlaw & Erlanger, with whom he was associated before the war.

Mr. Shuter, in spite ofthe fact that he is the coach, says that"Barbara, Behave!" is one of the best bookshe has ever staged.Selecting evening gowns for the showgirls, chosen not only for their ability tosing and dance but also for their perfectthirty-sixness, has been an engrossing problem for Abbot Priebe, Manager Hollowayand the staff.

To "Bar-Jackson Moore, '23, as Hyacinth Wallacebarbara, Behave!" he has contributed "TheCampus Red," "I'm Nothing But a Bell HopNow" and "Brass Button Blues." He is amember of the Undergraduate Council andthe newly elected president of the Y. M.C.

His recent successes havebeen "Inspector Donohue" in "The Thirteenth Chair," and two big acts in thefamous Senior Vaudeville — to be repeatedat Reunion.Jerry Westby and Eddie Waful (not anassumed name) are to take the parts ofBelle Dodge and Willie Typham, twoimaginatively dashing hotel servants whomove syncopatedly through the action.The play contains as many other characters, borrowed from the campus andvicinity, as are needed to fill the ShoregroveHotel, over by the lake, with more actionthan reviews, especially Blackfriar reviews,generally contain.

GilkeyAt the annual meeting of the Board ofTrustees, last June, two trustees wereelected, one of whom is the Rev. Charles W.Gilkey, pastor of Hyde Park Baptist Churchsince 1910, whowas elected to fill avacancy in the classof 1921. This election was a fittingrecognition of thedeep and continuedinterest in University affairs shownby Mr. Gilkey eversince he became amember of the university community.Charles W h i tneyGilkey was born atWatertown, Massachusetts, July 3,1882, the son ofJames Henry andMary Lottie (Johnson) Gilkey. In 1903he obtained his A.B. from HarvardUniversity, and in1904 his A. M. fromthe same institution.From 1903 to 1905Mr. Gilkey was stu-d e n t secretary ofthe InternationalCommittee of t h eY. M. C. A. In 1908he received the degree of B. D. fromUnion TheologicalSeminary, at Richmond, Virginia, and then, for a period oftwo years, pursued his studies abroad, atthe universities of Berlin and Marburg, atUnited Free Church College, Glasgow, atNew College, Edinburgh, and at OxfordUniversity. At the end of his year at Oxford,in 1910, he was ordained in the Baptist ministry, and received a cal! from the HydePark Baptist Church (56th Street andWoodlawn Avenue), of which church hehas been the pastor during the last tenyears. In the performance of his pastorateduties he has gained wide distinction.On July 26, 1915, Mr. Gilkey was married to Geraldine Gunsaulus Brown, of Hinsdale, Illinois. Mrs. Gilkey is a member of the class of 1912, and is a niece ofDr. Frank W. Gunsaulus, for many yearspastor of the Central Church, Chicago,professional lecturer at the University, andPresident of Armour Institute of Technology. The Gilkeys have two children,and reside at 5823 Woodlawn Ave.Mr. Gilkey is anoted speaker; in recent years he hasbeen UniversityPreacher at Harvard, Yale, Princeton,Cornell, and otheruniversities. He hasaddressed a numberof meetings at theUniversity of Chicago. In 1917 heserved as actingchaplain with theR. O. T.

His serviceshave been manytimes enlisted in theadvancement of important religious andsociological projects.He is a member of the University, City,Harvard, and Quadrangle clubs. On theBoard of Trustees he is a member of theCommittee on Instruction and Equipment.It is obvious that Charles W. Gilkey isa man of wide study and experience, and'one who is deeply interested in the development and furtherance of higher education. Those who know him realize fullythat he is a young man who is bringingto the Board fresh and able points of view,ai;.d that his election is a happy one in theway of both general and special assistancetoward the progress of the University.TRUSTEES 259Charles E. Hughes*■- n— ■ aa— aa^— aa^— aa^— aa^— aa— aa^— aa^— aa^— BB^— afl^— aa|aAt the Republican National Conventionin Chicago in June, 1916, one of the trusteesof The University of Chicago was nominated by that party for President of theUnited States; that trustee is CharlesEvans Hughes. Since 1914, two years before that Convention, Mr. Hughes has beena trustee of the LTniversity.Charles Evans Hughes has been beforethe American public so prominently formany years that his biography, publishedmany times, mightseem now almostsuperfluous. Thisbrief sketch, however, may servesomewhat in theway of reminder.Mr. Hughes wasborn at Glens Falls,New York, April 11,1862, the son of Da-v i'd Charles andCatherine (Connelly) Hughes. Fortwo years, 1876-8,he attended ColgateUniversity, and thenwent to Brown University, where hewas graduated A.B. in 1881, and A.M. in 1884. In thesame year, 1884, hereceived the degreeof LL. B. from Columbia University,and was admitted tothe bar in NewYork. On December 5, 1888, he married Antoinette Car-t e r. Since 1906,eleven universitiesand colleges haveconferred upon himthe honorary degreeof LL. D., Brown, in 1906, Columbia, Knoxand Lafayette, in 1907, Union and Colgate,in 1908, George Washington, in 1909, Williams, Harvard and Pennsylvania, in 1910.and Yale, in 1915.At the time he began practicing law,from 1884-1887, Mr. Hughes held a prizefellowship at Columbia Law School. Formany years he practiced law in New YorkCity, and also, from 1891 to 1895, was professor of law and special lecturer at Cornell and at the New York Law School. In1905 Mr. Hughes first came into prominence as counsel for the Stevens Gas Commission, appointed by the New York Legislature, and then, in 1906, won a nationalreputation for courage and legal ability as counsel for the Armstrong Insurance Commission, also appointed by the New YorkLegislature. He was next appointed special assistant to the United States Attorney-General in the coal investigation of1906. His great work on these several caseshas had a far-reaching, beneficial effect,particularly in the conduct of large business and commercial affairs.It was inevitable that such a man shouldbe called upon to assume the responsibilities of public office. In 1905 he declinedthe nomination for office of mayor of NewYork City; but, in 1907, he was electedGovernor of NewYork State, and reelected the following year." His services as Governorproved him to be aman of exceptionalexecutive abilities.In October, 1910,however, he resigned the governorship to become,in the same year,Associate-Justice ofthe Supreme Courtof the UnitedStates. He resigned from the Su-p r e m e Court onJune 10, 1916, thesame day on whichhe was nominatedfor the Presidency.In the presidentialelection that followed, Mr. Hughesreceived 254 electoral votes asagainst 277 forWoodrow Wilson.Mr. Hughes thenreturned to thepractice of law inNew York City, andsince January, 1917,has been head ofthe law firm of Hughes, Rounds, Schur-man & Dwight. In 1917 he was appointedchairman of the New York City Draft Appeals Board; in the same year he was president of the New York State Bar Association. He is a Fellow of Brown University,a member of the Legal Aid Society, of St.David's Society, of the New York City andof the American bar associations. He isa member of Delta Upsilon fraternity, andholds memberships in the University andother clubs, serving as president of theNew York Union League club in 1917.It is the good fortune of the Universityof Chicago that it has enlisted the fine,keen judgment and high abilities of CharlesE. Hughes for its assistance.THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINE+■ AthleticsAthletically speaking, there is very little of interest on the campus this month.The globe-trotting ball team is still on thefirst lap, and the track team is just gettingoff crutches. Except for the track practiceand the occasional gatherings of the freshmen ball club, Stagg Field is as desertedthese rainy spring days as it usually is inthe middle of August.Evidently the ball club is so very busysightseeing it has not time to write letters,for few reports have trickled back. Justbefore the Maroons sailed the Universityof California nine trimmed them 6-3, andon April 17, an all Chinese team bumpedthe Maroons on the beach of Wakiki, 4-3.Reports indicate that Crisler, who openedthe pitching at San Francisco, walked thefirst four men to face him, and after thatit was all over, though Chicago outhit thewesterners, 9 to 5."Johnny" Johnson, Trainer, Is BackThe track cripples are mending, ratherslowly, but at any rate the team is on theupgrade. "Johnny" Johnson, the famoustrainer who has been fixing up the woundedfor the past two years, has returned andtackled the job of patching the Maroons,and Tom Eck has also managed to getaround, after being in the hospital for twomonths. But from all indications, Chicagowill not be much of a factor in the conference this season. The strength of the teamis the middle distance men, where theother colleges are also strong, and Higgins is the only hope in the field events.In the Drake relays on April 24 theMaroons set a new record, failing to winan event. Chicago placed fourth in boththe two and four-mile events, but probablywould have done a little better^ had theluck been good in drawing positions.In the Penn relays on May 1, the Chicago distance medley team had the bestchance to win, but because of a slip by theofficials, the team, together with the Pennand O'xford-Cambridge teams, was notsummoned to the starting point. Harris,who was to run the 440, happened to lienut in the rain when the race was called, ran his quarter, but there was no one forhim to hand the stick to when he came inin second place. In the four-mile relay theMaroons were fourth.The track schedule for the rest of theyear is as follows: May S — Purdue at Chicago; May 15 — Michigan at Chicago; May21— Illinois at Illinois; May 28 — Wisconsin at Wisconsin; June 5 — Conference atAnn Arbor.Tennis men are preparing for the annualchampionships with several dual dates.The hope of the Maroons of course, isRuthven Pike, singles, winner in 1918, whois showing fair form for this time of theyear. Pike has a wide assortment ofstrokes, and plays a slashing game, but inthe critical game he too often lacks control. This year, however, he seems to havehis game in hand, and if he can retain thecontrol, he will be cne of the favorites.Harry Vories is probably the next bestman, and Segal is another good man. AA. Stagg, Jr., is one of the candidates witha chance to make the team, and others areMcKnight, Wiegland, and Reckless.Chicago Wins Annual Conference Gymnastic ChampionshipOn Saturday, April 10, Chicago won the16th Annual Conference Gymnastic championship held at Illinois; Chicago tookfour out of a possible six firsts, scoring,in all. 1.051 2/5 points: Wisconsin wassecond with 907 1/5 points; Illinois third,with 516 2/5. and Ohio State fourth with52. McHugh, Morris, Pringle, Inglow,Schneidenbach, Cripe, and Kessler, werethe Maroon point winners.After a lapse of two years caused bvthe war, the Stagg Interscholastic willagain be the big feature of the prep-schoolathletes.

The firstindication on Johnnie's part that he wasready to return was shown in a letter fromhim on Jan. 24, 1920, to which I repliedfavorably, offering him an increase of salary considerably over that which he formerly received. Johnnie replied that onaccount of the increased cost of living itwould be necessary for him to have a certain amount, and without further discussion I offered him that salary and suggested that he take up his work on April 1,which allowed him a reasonable time to gethis discharge and move his effects, etc. Noreply has been received, but I have assumed that he is in the process of gettinghis discharge, which he had previously toldme was not easy to get.For the illness which deprived us ofTom Eck's valued services as a trainer wehave no apology to make. It was unexpectedly prolonged, but "Alumnus" oughtto know that good trainers of ten to fortyyears' experience are not available fortemporary jobs, and we simply went alongwith the assistants which Tom had beenusing for several weeks.However, the accidents which p.ut someof the men out of commission and handicapped others have happened under theregime of Johnnie and Tom in other yearsand no trainer can stop them. It was thecoincidence of several injuries whichcaused the so-called "fiasco," and this notrainer can foresee nor prevent. So longas our track men have to run on boardtracks with sharp turns of various degreesof banking we shall continue to have"pulled" muscles, strained feet, fallingarches, "shin splints" and congested calves,and when a series of them happen closetogether and to good men, the result isbound to be disastrous.Before closing, I wish to disillusion"Alumnus" as to the strength of our trackteam at its best. It is poorly balancedwith its greatest strength in the middleand long distances and with only a single classy field man. We have several goodrunners, but no phenomenal ones, and thefield of good runners in the West at present is so large and strong that our Chicago runners who have been successful inthe past can have no assurance of winningthis coming spring. However, I am surethat no alumnus will be humiliated bytheir showing.Now, in closing, I would offer just a wordor two of advice to "Alumnus." Be sureof your facts before offering criticism, andthen think matters over many times beforepublicly expressing it, because it is an absolute certainty that the Athletic departmentand the teams will be giving their best tothe University on every occasion, and noloyal alumnus should ever be humiliatedby honest endeavor.

Downingis giving a course of eighteen lectures atthe National Kindergarten and ElementaryCollege in Chicago. He is also giving acourse of eight lectures to the scienceteachers of Eort Wayne, Indiana. Bothcourses are on science teaching.The third book in the University of Chicago Nature-Study Series, A Field and Laboratory Guide in Physical Nature-Study by ElliottR.

This isa guide for teachers in the preparation ofscience material for the grades and juniorhigh school, and deals with the science connected with children's toys and home appliances.Department of MathematicsThe members of the mathematical department of the School of Education areemployed in new and unfinished enterprises as follows:Professor Myers is working on a courseof study in general mathematics for thefirst six grades of public elementaryschools. The aim is a detailed psychological analysis and thoroughgoing co-ordination of the constituent types of work involved and the inclusion of recent educational findings and a highly objective gradation of the material from year to year.He is also working on a set of reasoningtests for high-school algebra and is aboutready to send to press a little book on elementary algebraic geometry.

He is continuing the plan used withhis former texts, of working out his material by actually teaching it to junior high-school classes. He is also con-ducting asystematic study of the methods of dealing with slow and backward mathematicalpupils with a view to establishing a systematic teaching technique for dealing effectively with such pupils. His procedure,being based largely on objective testing and reteaching, promises to attain a high degreeof objectivity and will doubtless be capable of wide applicability. Mr. Wright ofthe University High School is assisting himwith his second problem.Mr. Holzinger is testing out the abilitiesof high- and elementary-school pupils insyllogistic thinking, with a view to determining how early in the grades it is advisable to undertake to teach such thinking tochildren. Some of his findings are showingthe practicability of undertaking suchteaching much earlier than is commonlythought possible. The results already obtained prove the great value of his undertaking.Department of GeographyIn the geography department an experiment is being conducted to ascertain atwhat age pupils naturally express themselves in map symbols. The results ob- .tained indicate that this form of expressionis normal to the earliest grades.In the fourth and fifth grades, Miss EdithParker has been conducting experimentalwork leading to: (1) the grading of variouskind of geographic source materials —maps, charts, graphs, reading and museummaterials — with regard to the difficulty oftheir interpretation; and (2) the determining of which best fit the needs and abilitiesof children of these grades.EAGLE'MIKADO" PENCIL No.174l Tg-Sj^g CAGLEjV^KiftlMRx N 92 X JStSaJlRegular Length, 7 inchesFor Sale at your Dealer.

Scott, of theHistory Department, who gave us all the"University gossip" in his sociable and entertaining style.Following the talk, the Club formulatedits program for the coming months and decided to center its efforts in the establishment of a Tri-City Scholarship to theUniversity. The plan suggested was toaward the scholarship alternately each yearto an honor student from the respectivehigh schools of Rock Island, Moline andDavenport. To assist in raising money forthe establishment of the scholarship it isplanned to give a public lecture in the- nearfuture under the auspices of the Club.The meeting was well attended by Tri-City University of Chicago people. Manynew students at the University who werehome for the Spring Recess enrolled themselves as members. Following the businesssession, refreshments were served, the orchestra struck up the dance music, and theremainder of the evening was spent in dancing and sociability.George H.

Two of our high school boys whowere present were very greatly impressedand will doubtless go to the University ofChicago as a result of being our gueststhat evening at the dinner and later at thetheatre.The coming of the Glee Club has suggested a good many possibilities, and Iam very anxious that they be developedfor another year. The thing we want isto have the Glee Club here at the highschool some time during the day, preferablyin the afternoon at 2:45, when our students can have a chance to hear them. Ihave never known of any finer work thanthat done by the Glee Club, jazz band, etc.I hope that a bigger trip can be plannedfor the next year, and that we are to havethe pleasure of having them here at leasta day.

Of course being at Falkenau's, everyone felt right athome, and so very little entertainment wasrequired. To keep the home talent fromgetting out of practice, however, a smallprogram was arranged. First, Kay Llewellyn sang a few songs in the pleasant andefficient way, and then the other Llewellynplayed at being a certain well known professor who sometimes goes to Korea. Sheleft hardly any off in calling the roll. Itbeing Sunday, Len Taylor had to be coaxedto perform, but finally did, although bythat time everyone was too busy admiringthe pretty sandwiches and cakes to paymuch attention to poor Len. Lastly, J. C.Hemphill played and sang a few jazzytunes in his inimitable way. Gladys Gordonas commissary then served some wonderful food, and for a time at least became apopular idol. Everyone raved about thesandwiches, except Arline, who was toobusy watching the silverware — there wasquite a turnout of fraternity men. Theparty was supposed to break up at six, butit was nearly seven before anyone suggested leaving.Nineteen nineteen is very much alive, andexpects to give another party before turning its talents toward Reunion. The affairsof the class are being conducted by a committee consisting of Arline Falkenau,Gladys Gordon, Sarah Mulroy, LillianRichards, Marian Llewellyn, ClarenceBrown, Van Meter Ames, Harry McCosh,and Bernard Nath.NoticeBecause our addresses of our ex-students unfortunately have not been kept up,many "Chicagoans" do not get our Reunion notices, or other notices.

The speakerwas Alderman Charles Scribner Eaton,'00, a member of the council committeewhich visited various cities to study theoperation of zoning laws. Mr. Eatonstated that the subject is treated underthree headings — use, height of buildings,and area of occupation. He told of whathas been accomplished in other cities andwhat is hoped from recent zoning legislation for Chicago, and made out an extremely favorable case for it. The authority for such legislation, he said, isfound entirely in the police power of thestate, and has run into constitutional obstacles in certain states. The fact that theIllinois constitutional convention is now insession makes it likely that the way willbe cleared in Illinois, and that the principle will have a chance for a thoroughtry-out on its merits.William J. Matthews, J. D., '08, chairmanof the committee on the annual banquet inJune, started livening things up in the wayof preparation for that occasion.

It is exceedingly significant andgratifying to know that the proportion ofdoctors subscribing to this fund is practically the same as the proportion of alumniall together, namely, about one in twenty.This ratio, however, is still too small. Subscriptions are constantly coming in and thenumber will be greatly enlarged by convocation time. The doctors will, of course, keepup their proportion, and, perchance, willexceed it — such has always been our record.Please send news notes of yourself and ofany other doctors whom you know.Anticipating the pleasure of meeting youagain in June, I remainYours very sincerely,(Signed) H.

Each presidential aspirant_ has abranch organization here boosting inspeeches and in communications to TheDaily Maroon. Campaign buttons and literature are scattered all over the campus.Politics in another way has also been discussed. Certain influential upperclassmenhave been conducting a series of "clean politics" meetings for the benefit of fraternities and clubs and other campus organizations. The movement is a sincere one,and should have good results.Briefer mention should include: a corking good Glee Club concert on April 17 —the club is coming back with a vengence;a University Sing on April 14; lectures byMargaret Deland, on April 8, and byJoseph Pennell, on April 21; a "Hit theWalk" campaign to save the grass, beginning April 27; the petition to restore theformer 10:15 chapel period; a Score Clubdance April 16; a second and equally successful edition of our new magazine, thePhoenix; the Rifle Club's victory over theHarvard team, by 9 points, on April 14:and a W.

With the purpose of making somewhat clearer some of the phases of the Italianparticipation in the world-conflict, an especially favored and competent observer, Professor Charles Edward Merriam, of theDepartment of Political Science at the University of Chicago, has given his impressionsas head of the American Committee on PublicInformation in Italy. These impressions andobservations the University of Chicago Pressannounces for early publication under thetitle Impressions of Italy in War Time.Captain Merriam discusses in the introductory chapters the Italian collapse at Caporettoand its causes, Italy's war sacrifices, and theItalian war government and army; and inlater chapters, the American organization andYankee soldiers in Italy; the Austrian offensive of 1918, the Adriatic and Fiume, andtwentieth-century Italy. The whole narrative is alive with personalincident and anecdote while containing manyvaluable observations and conclusions of apolitical, social and economic nature. Professor Merriam is the author also of A History of American Political Theories and of avolume on Primary Elections.A book of remarkable significance for allwho are interested in the history of science,particularly that of medicine, is just announcedby the University of Chicago Press in a memorial edition — the History and Bibliographyof Anatomic Illustration, by Ludwig Choulant,translated and revised by Dr. Mortimer Frank,of Chicago. Dr. Frank finished his task andturned the manuscript over to the publishersjust before his untimely death in April, 1919.A committee of his friends has chosen thisvolume as a fitting memorial to Dr. Frank because of its intrinsic value as a contribution tomedical science and because of his deep personal interest in making it available to hisprofession.and at the St. Charles HotelNew OrleansoA fact:Fatima contains more Turkish thanany other Turkish blend cigarette.

Butthe complication of high vacuumpumps made the new tube in large Self-Rectifying,Radiator-typeCoolidgeX-ray Tube quantities impossible. The answerto this problem was the LangmuirCondensation Pump, utilizing mercury vapor in its operation andalmost automatic.To meet the need for simple X-rayapparatus during the war — the G-ELaboratory developed the Self-Rectifying Coolidge Tube, whichmade possible portable outfits at thefront The latest X-ray outfit ofthis type is so small it can be takenconveniently to the home or to thebedside in the hospital.Thus the Research Laboratory ofthe General Electric Company continues to serve, that progress inthings electrical may continue forthe good of humanity.General OfficeSchenectady; INLY Sales Offices inall large citiesM-IMlTHE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINEHEUCUi ItJ^lgSlak [ . ill xl rDEHSi/ll ■ (w/.^4;\'il\\^j&a Mf/f*^pr3^?^w«*;1 spj^gjilPPjai iillifliL MliiilThe Mixing House CrewThe men in the dynamite mixing house work together with the smoothness of an eight oared crew —without apparent hurry and yet without a wastemotion. There is never a suggestion of confusionor uncertainty. Each man does his appointed taskswith the precision and alertness of the trainedpowder worker.These men must not only work smoothly, but theymust think quickly in order that nothing may go amisswithout their instantly detecting and correcting it.They must know the weights and proportions ofdope* and nitroglycerin used to produce the manydifferent grades of dynamite, and their correct actionunder the great rubber-shod wheels. Any slip oftheirs here will quickly be brought to light by thechemists' analysis.It has taken years of patient work and careful experimentingto bring this seemingly simple mixing process to its presentperfection. But no matter how perfectly the machine doesits work it would be of little avail without the skill andpractical knowledge of the mixing house crew.To the men in the mixing house is due, in no small measure,the credit for the important work donehy Hercules Dynamiteas it fights on the side of man in his battle with nature — leveling mountains, altering the courses of rivers, changing thefarmers' arid land into fruitful fields, in fact performing for mantremendous tasks which he could never accomplish unaided.HERCULES POWDER CO.Chicago St. Louis New YorkPittsburg.
