XVIII No. i^intbcrsttj» of CfricagojWaga^ineNOVE M BER, 1925Dr. Max Mason Elected PresidentON' August 18 announcement wasmade that Dr. Max Mason, professor of Mathematical Physics atthe University of Wisconsin, had beenunanimously elected President of the University of Chicago. In ali circles at theUniversity, among the Alumni, and in thepublic press, this announcement was re-ceived enthusiastically.Soon after the death of President ErnestDeWitt Burton, a special joint committee,composed of members of the Board of Trus-tees and of the Faculty, as announced inthe Magazine, set to work on the largetask of fìnding a fitting successor to President Burton. Some eighty or more namesof leaders in the educational and alliedfìelds were considered. After weeks ofConstant investigation, study and discussion,the names had been narrowed to a veryfew. It was during consideration of theseremaining few that it was soon discoveredthat Dr. Max Mason, of Wisconsin, ap-peared to be favored in the opinion ofmost members of the committee. Whenhis name was thereupon put to a vote heproved to be the unanimous choice.Those signing the recommendation were :From the Board of Trustees, Harold H.Swift, Martin A. Ryerson, Albert W.Sherer, William Scott Bond, and CharlesW. Gilkev, Committee Chairman ; (as Alumni know, Mr. Swift, '07, Mr. Sherer,'06, and Mr. Bond, '97, are Alumni members of the Board) ; from the Faculty,James H. Tufts, John Matthews Manly,Henry Gordon Gale, Frederic C. Wood-ward, and Gordon J. Laing. Three members of the committee, Dr. Frank Billings,Thomas E. Donnelley, and Robert L.Scott, happened to be away from the citywhen the report was drawn. Immediatelyfollowing the report Professor Mason'selection was made unanimous.President Mason undertook his workofficially on October first, and duringSeptember he was brought into dose ac-quaintance with various trustee, faculty, ad-ministrative and Alumni groups at a numberof dinners and meetings for that purpose.At every gathering he quickly won thesincere admiration and loyal friendship ofali. Upon notification of his election Dr.Mason made the following statement:"I am deeply conscious of the honorconferred upon me by this election. Theideals of the University of Chicago, itsthree-fold work of education, of productivescholarship, and of service to the community, are well known. I feel keenly theinspiring opportunity to continue the workin association with men whose genius andself-sacrifice are responsible for the great-ness of the University of Chicago."8 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINESpeaking for the Board of Trustees, Mr.Swift, its president, said :"We are delighted that Professor Mason,a man of splendid character, a distinguishedscientist, and at the same time a man ofthe broadest human interests, has acceptedthe election as president of the University.We who have come to know him throughthe present happy event are able to assurethe members of the University, its Alumni,and the public that he is a man supremelyfìtted to succeed the three presidents, Har-per, Judson, and Burton, under whoseleadership the University has seen its firstchapters of development. We know thatProfessor Mason has the capacity to makethis fourth administration another splendidchapter, harmonious with the tradition ofthe University and progressively expressiveof its ideals."Vice-president James H. Tufts said onbehalf of the Faculty:"A distinguished scientist of keen mind,Professor Mason is also a human and like-able man with broad interests and a capacityfor friendship. Faculty, alumni and stu-dents will find him openminded and alert.His ability as an administrator, his goodjudgment of men and situations, his devo-tion to the purposes for which the Universitystands will, I believe, command the confi-dence of the community."Albert W. Sherer, alumnus trustee, said :"He is known to the University of Wisconsin men and women, faculty, alumniand undergraduates as a friend, leader andcounsellor whose chief characteristic is hisunselfìsh devotion to any cause to whichhe gives himself."Trustee William Scott Bond stated :"Professor Mason is a scholar of distinc-tion and, although a young man, has arecord of great accomplishment. We aresure we have a new leader who will havethe whole-hearted sympathy of our alumniand the cordial support and co-operationof the citizens of Chicago and the west."The retiring president of the Universityof Wisconsin, Dr. Edward A. Birge, inspeaking of the great honor that had cometo his colleague, said: "I congratulate mostheartily the University of Chicago on se- curing a president of great energy andability in whose leadership I fully believe.Deeply as I feel the loss to Wisconsin ofa man so distinguished in teaching and inresearch, I cannot but rejoice that the qual-ities that have marked his career at Wisconsin have led him to the presidency of oneof our greatest universities."The joint committee in charge realizedits great responsibility, not only to selecta president who would measure up to thehigh requirements in every way but also toobtain such a leader as soon as possible underthe present emergency confronting the University. It is truly fortunate that theirinvestigations and deliberations resulted soearly in the election of a president whopossesses ali of the needed qualifications andwho already is giving ampie evidence of hiscapacity for true leadership.Wisconsin Club Honors Dr.Max Mason in ResolutionA SET of resolutions congratulatingboth Dr. Max Mason and the University of Chicago on his selection to be president of the Midway school was publishedrecently by the University of WisconsinClub of Chicago. The resolutions read :"Whereas, Professor Max Mason, alumnus and member of the faculty of the University of Wisconsin, has been offered andhas accepted the office of president of theUniversity of Chicago,"Now, therefore, be it resolved by themembers of the University of Wisconsinclub of Chicago in meeting assembled :"That the members of this club expressto Max Mason their sincere congratulationsand best wishes and their faith that he willbe guided in his great work by the spirit ofservice that has dominated his career asstudent, alumnus and educator at the University of Wisconsin ;"That the board of trustees of the University of Chicago also be congratulatedupon their choice of Professor Mason astheir president ;"That a copy of these resolutions be sentto Professor Mason and to the board oftrustees of the University of Chicago."Life of President MasonON October i, 1925, Professor MaxMason of the University of Wisconsin took office as President ofthe University of Chicago, having beenelected unanimously to the presidency inAugust. The man who is now leading theUniversity forward in its great endeavorshas been described by many as follows :"An internationally known mathemati-cian, physicist and research worker; the in-ventor of a device for detecting and locatingsubmarines which is in use in the Americanand British navies."A man thoroughly conversant with boththe teaching and the administrative sides ofuniversity work ; a man deeply in earnestand abounding in energy."A professor who has not only held therespect of the Wisconsin faculty, but wholong ago won the affection of the under-graduates and alumni."A genial human being, with democracywritten ali over him ; a lover of outdoorgames; a man who enjoys and tells a goodstory."Max Mason is a Wisconsin man by birth,and has passed the greater part of his aca-demic life in the institution where he wasresearch professor of mathematical physics.He was born in Madison, October 26,1877, the son of Edwin Cole Mason andJosephine Mason. Early members of thefamily had been pioneers in the settlementof that part of Wisconsin. Max Masongrew up in Madison and was graduatedfrom the University of Wisconsin as bach-elor of arts in 1898. During his collegelife he was able to gain distinction in stu-dent activities, social, musical and athletic,without interfering with his ambition torank high in scholarship. He was a goodtrack athlete, wearing a "W" for threeyears for the high jump. He joined thePsi Upsilon fraternity. In addition, be-cause of his ability as a student, he becamea member of the honor societies, Phi BetaKappa, Gamma Alpha, and Sigma Xi.After his graduation from college Mr. Mason took up post-graduate work at Madison, then taught for a year in high schoolat Beloit, Wis. His special field of studyhad become that of mathematics, and, seek-ing the benefit of European instruction inthe higher branches of that subject, hewent abroad. He obtained his Ph.D. de-gree at the University of Gòttingen in1903. Returning to the United States, hewas for a year instructor in mathematics inthe Massachusetts Institute of Technology;then, from 1904 to 1908, assistant professorof Yale University, and in the latter year hereturned to his alma mater, Wisconsin, asProfessor of Mathematical Physics.The grant of research professorship carneto him in 1919 in recognition of his scien-tific achievements. These included ad-vances in knowledge of the more difficultmathematical subjects — such as differentialequations and also physical applications ofmathematical theory.Like many a university research man,Professor Mason was called to the serviceof the United States government during theWorld War. Putting aside for a time, as didthe others, his purely intellectual pursuits,he strove to perfect the nation's weaponsof defense. The problem he was asked tostudy especially was that of protectionagainst submarines ; and after conferringwith Washington officials he returned toMadison, where he invented a device nowrenowned as the Mason hydrophone fordetecting and locating submarines. As amember of the staff of the naval experi-mental station at New London, Conn.,Professor Mason developed his invention,which became of service not only to theAmerican navy but to the British.In acknowledgement of the importanceof the scientific work which Dr. Masonperformed during the World War throughhis invention, Josephus Daniels, wartimeSecretary of the Navy, made the followingstatement :"It is doubtful if any man in the WorldWar rendered a service quite so valuable.IO THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINEFrom the day the U boats sank the firstship, scientists and inventors in ali the alliednations sought to invent an instrument todetect submarines. As long as there was noway to locate them, they could easily carryon their policy of assassination. It was theparamount need and when the naval staff atNew London saw that Dr. Mason hadfound the key, it was as if a general hadwon a decisive battle."From 1917 to 1919 he was a member ofthe submarine commission of the NationalResearch Council. As a workef in thisfield, as well as in his development ofstudies in higher mathematics, ProfessorMason became internationally known.In this war work, involving the directionof many men and the disposai of large sumsof money, Dr. Mason showed his adminis-trative ability : and later as secretary of thefaculty at Madison and in other duties hedemonstrated a like ability in universityaffaire. Officials of the University of Wisconsin and associates of his on the facultytestify to his acuteness in practical mattersand to his ability to work harmoniouslywith others. He is said to be a man of un-usual grasp of what is involved in post-graduate research, at the same time takinga keen interest in the activities and prob-lems of the undergraduate. Throughouthis life he has kept up his skill in outdoorgames and his interest in them; he hasbroken the records of several golf courses.President Mason's responsibility will in-volve not only undertaking leadership ofthe University's many-sided educationalwork but also taking a prominent part inthe campaign for financial developmentwhich was begun last year.President Mason is a member of the National Academy of Sciences, the AmericanMathematical society, the American Phys-ical society, the Deutsche MathematikerVereinigung, the Circolo Matematico diPalermo, and several other learned and educational associations, in some of which hehas held office. His publications in the pro-ceedings of these societies have been numer-ous and have dealt with highlv specializedmaterial.The family of the new president con- sists of his wife and three children — twoboys, William and Max, Jr., 19 and 16jears old, respectively, and a daughter,Molly, 13. Mrs. Mason was Mary Free-man, daughter of a member of the facultyat Madison, and formerly a professor at theold University of Chicago.President Mason, a comparatively youngman of 48 years, becomes President of theUniversity with the promise of many yearsof sound, constructive service. His wholelife record shows him to be a man excep-tionally well fitted for this task. He is,furthermore, "intensely human," kindly,"easy to meet," with a rare capacity formaking and keeping an ever-widening circleof friends.His election as President of the University of Chicago, indeed, now seems as anaturai culmination of a life of profoundscholarship, wide and constructive experi-ence, sincere and successful service.Greetings to President MasonDear President Mason:This is the second year of my term asPresident of the College Alumni Associationand also as Chairman of the Alumni Council. I feel that I may express the gratifi-cation of our whole Alumni body as wellas my personal satisfaction in the choiceof yourself as our new President. Youmay be assured of our good will and bestwishes, and know that we are ready towork with you.Faithfully yours, Earl D. Hostetter.President Mason's ReplyDear Mr. Hostetter:Thank you very much for your cordialwelcome of me into the Chicago family.The generosity of my reception by Chicagospeaks volumes for the unity of purpose andgreat friendliness of the wonderful insti-tution of which I am privileged to serve.I hope you will cali upon me withoutreservation for anything I can do to main-tain and increase that frank understandingand cordial fellowship between Alumni andFaculty which must form so large a partof the foundation on which the future Chicago is to be built.Sincerely yours, Max Mason.c IBI The A L u M N ! c A M p A ] G N SI |THE Development Campaign of theUniversity for $17,500,000, to in-sure the retention of its place amongleading educational institutions, is on in fullforce again. Following a summer of comparative cessation, so far as the externalfield was concerned, district chairmen in aliparts of the nation are taking advantage ofthe fall season to renew their efiorts in be-half of the University with the immediateobjective of completing the $2,000,000Alumni quota, now more than three-fourthssubscribed, before funds are to be soughtfrom the general public.A total of more than 625 locai chairmenin almost as many cities ali over the countryare at work on the renewed drive, in addi-tion to large groups of Alumni who areworking in the more populous centers.As the Alumni campaign stands at present, a total of over $1,534,171 has beensubscribed, $989,285 coming from Alumniliving in the Chicago region and $544,886from those in other parts of the nation andworld. This leaves a total of $465,829 tobe subscribed by the alumni before the startof any public campaign for the remainder ofthe $17,500,000, not covered by Alumniand trustee subscriptions.The summer lull, caused dually by thedifficulty in reaching many persóns duringthe summer season and the interim in whichthe University had no officiai head, carneto an abrupt end on October I when President Max Mason took office.President Mason's first officiai statementto the Alumni after taking office, throughthe Campaign Extra, was in regard to theDevelopment program. "I fìnd you in themidst of a campaign to secure the means ofcontinued development," he said. "Myfirst task will be the completion of thatcampaign."One of his first officiai acts was to outline a definite program involving completion ofthe Alumni campaign by December 31 andthe start of the general public campaign inChicago shortly after. It is from this lattersource that the University will receive themajor portion of its $17,500,000. A tenta-tive quota of $10,000,000 has been set forthe city of Chicago, and preliminary plansare now being projected for the start of thisdrive early in the new year.But of one thing both President Masonand the Development Committee leadersare convinced, and that is that the citycampaign cannot be started, cannot be evenpublicly announced until the Alumni havefinished their share in the job. In order toinsure the completion of this part of thework, those in charge of the drive haverevised the quotas of the Chicago regionAlumni. Under the new quota, the citycommittee, headed by Frank McNair, '03,vice president of the Harris Trust & SavingsBank, Chicago, is out to raise $203,000,which, with the $70,000 now being raisedby Rush Medicai Alumni in Chicago, willmake a grand total of $1,245,000 raised bygraduates stili geographically dose to theUniversity.As a result of the revision in quotas, theAlumni located outside of the city ofChicago, who had $400,000 yet to raiseunder the old allocation, have had theirquota cut in half.In Chicago, McNair has a group of 40Alumni, known as the "steering committee"working with him. These men started theirwork on October 7 with a dinner at Gray-ling's restaurant. During the months be-tween now and the end of the year they aredevoting the major portion of their time,not actually demanded by their business, tointerviewing Chicago Alumni who have notyet subscribed to the fund. "See everyalumnus before the end of December" is theI 2 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINEword which McNair, himself an activeworker, has placed before them.To the Alumni located in the city ofChicago, McNair issued the followingstatement: "The forty men on this committee have accepted appointment on thiscommittee to see the locai campaign throughto a quick finish. They have not only madegenerous subscriptions themselves but theyare sacrificing their time and they are en-titled to the hearty support of the Alumniin general. I am sure they will get it. Ifyou have not made your subscription the bestway you can help is to send it in withoutfurther solicitation."Outside of Chicago, greatest activitycenters in New York, Philadelphia, Cleveland and Los Angeles. On the Pacific CoastDr. Fred Spiek, '05, is waging an activecampaign in the Los Angeles district andsouthern California, where he made a bril-liant showing on behalf of the Developmentfund last spring.In the eastern cities, the week of thePennsylvania game was the sign for immediate renewal of activity. President Masonmade the trip with the Maroon team, andfollowing the game addressed a large andenthusiastic body of Alumni who hadgathered to see the game and the new president. In addition to President Mason,Harold H. Swift, '07, president of theboard'of trustees, spoke. After this meetingPresident Alason went on to New Yorkwhere he met another group of Alumni,among them Ernest Quantrell, '06, headof the New York end of the Alumni campaign.The renewal of activity has brought someresults already although the work has barelystarted. The total number of subscribersis now well past the 8,000 mark and isincreasing rapidly. The Alumni of RushMedicai College, now Alumni of the University, are running a parallel campaignboth in and outside of Chicago with a quotaof $75,000 in the City and $20,000 else-where. In Chicago a committee of morethan 50 doctors are actively engaged in in-terviewing the Rush men with the nrospectof successfully concluding their campaignthis month. Some Letters on theCampaignLETTERS have come in from every stateJ in the Union — from Maine and California, from Florida and Minnesota — ¦pledging allegiance to the School and to themovement for broadening the work of theinstitution. Foreign countries, too, arerepresented, as in the following letter fromJubbulpore, C. P., to the late PresidentBurton:"When I think of what I owe intellec-tually and spiritually to the University andthe paltry sum which I have indicated onthe attached card, I am sorely troubled."But, as you have indicated in yourgracious letter, many of Chicago's alumniare engaged in work which makes largegifts, or even modest gifts prohibitive. Youhave been in the East also and know some-thing of the financial problems of the mis-sionaries, especially since the dose of theGreat War."With tender memories of the CityGray, and its great inspiration to my lifeand with devout wishes for its futuregrowth in service."Another letter, which. accompanied a$300 pledge, carne from Palo Alto, California:"I am enclosing my small contribution,which, I regret to say, is as much as I amfinancially able to handle now, due to thefact that I have been out of work for thelast three years as the mining industry hasbeen experiencing a slump, as you know."I hope that I may be able to increasethis amount if business picks up, but if notI shall have hard sledding to do my mite.With heartiest wishes for the success of thedrive."a a ^An alumnus from the northwest writes:"I enclose herein my small subscription of$25 to the Development Fund, which is aliI can give at this time. I am glad, however,that ali subscriptions, large or small, aretruly welcome. This broad and fair atti-tude gives every alumnus an opportunity todo at least something. In my opinion, everyformer student ought to contribute something, whatever he can, for our Universityof Chicago."What the University Has Done for Rush, andWhat Rush Can Do for the UniversityBy Ralph W. Webster, '95, M.D. '98President Rush Alumni AssociationMr. Toastmaster, Fellow Alumniand Frìcnds:SOME of our Rush alumni have, intimes past, expressed the idea that theUniversity of Chicago has done verylittle for Rush Medicai College. I wish topresent, in the brief time at my disposai, afew facts which will show that the University has in reality done much for Rushand is planning to do a vast amount more.As will be recalled the University andRush became affiliated in 1898, whenPresident Harper inaugurated the move-ment which has only recently been com-pleted. It was hoped and expected thatthis affiliation would soon result in a doseunion between these schools, but certaindifficulties arose, which have not been over-come until within the last year. In 1901the work of the first two years of Rush wastransferred to the laboratories of the University, while the last two years medicaiwork has continued at Rush. This arrangement was entered into because at thetime of affiliation of these two institutions,it was clearly evident that Rush MedicaiCollege itself was unable to carry on thework of the first two years in a thoroughlyadequate manner owing to lack of financialresources. When the University took overthis portion of the medicai work the em-barrassing problem was so successfullysolved that Rush has taken rapid strides to-ward the front rank of medicai colleges. Itshould be pointed out that the Universityoffered to the student the opportunity oftaking his ¦work in the preclinical branchesin laboratories which have a replacementvalue of four to five millions of dollars andoffered him instruction and equipment whichrepresent the income from another fourmillions of dollars. Unfortunately forRush and for medicai education the death of President Harper carne just at the timewhen the full realization of his hopes forthe development of a great medicai schoolwere about to be rewarded.After a period of relative inactivity, during which the work of Rush Medicai College continued without much development,a fresh study of the medicai situation wasmade, during the presidency of Dr. Judson,as a result of which a contract was enteredinto between the University and Rush, butfor various reasons this contract appearedimpossible of fulfillment. After severalmore years of work a new agreement wasdrawn up and in 1924 the "courts declaredthe new contract to be valid and it wassigned by the representatives of the two cor-porations." At this time the two institutions actually became one, Rush beingdirectly merged with the University andtransferring its property to the Universitywith the exception of certain trust funds,which are stili administered by the Trusteesof Rush Medicai College. This new piancalled for the establishment and development of two medicai schools conducted bythe University, the Graduate MedicaiSchool of the Ogden Graduate School ofScience at the University, and Rush Post-graduate Medicai School on the West Side.As to the work of these two medicaischools, it is to be said that the GraduateSchool on the South Side will carry on thework of the regular medicai school, prepar-ing the student for the degree of M.D. andfitting him especially to make his daily workmore of a research problem. The Post-graduate School on the West Side is intend-ed to afford practitioners the opportunity offitting themselves for work in special lines,courses being offered over extended periodsrather than over a few weeks or months.Here ampie facilities will be given for thesolution of research problems as well as forzo14 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINEthe development of specialists in variousbranches.Although actual work on the construc-tion of the medicai buildings has begun onthe South Side, until these buildings arecomplete and the preparations made forinstruction there must be a third medicaischool, Rush Medicai College. It is prob-able that what we ali know as "Old Rush"will continue to offer its courses of instruction, just as it has been doing for years,for at least five years, possibly for ten yearsand, perhaps, for much longer. Just whatthe final solution of the actual problemsin the correlation of the medicai schoolswill be is a matter of difficulty to formulateat the present time.That the University has its medicai program well outlined and takes its associationwith Rush Medicai College very seriouslyis shown by the fact that the developmentprogram calls for the raising of five milliondollars for medicai endowment and oftwenty millions of dollars for medicai education. What more is needed to show theRush alumnus that the University is deeplyinterested in the future of its medicaischools, of which Rush is an integrai part ?Now, let me say just a few words as tothe obligations of Rush to the University.Rush Medicai College has now about 4,000alumni, who have settled in practicallyevery state in the Union and in many for-eign countries. Many of these alumni havtachieved greatness and practically ali areadministering daily to the needs of suffer-ing humanity. Rush Medicai Collegebrings to the University this loyal groupof alumni in the belief that the Universityhas gained much by this association. Let itbe pointed out that we are ali now alumniof the University, since Rush has become anintegrai part of this institution, and thatthe University is proud of its Rush alumnigroup. On our side, let it not be said thatwe are anything other than loyal Rushalumni and, hence, loyal University ofChicago alumni. Our alumni have accom-plished much and will continue to moveforward to greater things under the stimu-lus afforded to medicai education by the program of development now being pushedby the University.The University of Chicago is now engaged in a vast program for increased endowment, the sum sought being $I7,50<V000. While it is true that this campaigndid not originally include the solicitationof funds for medicai purposes, it being de-cided that this special phase should be leftfor a future campaign, yet it was felt bythe University and by the Rush AlumniCommittee that the Rush alumni should beasked to contribute to this general fund, in-asmuch as the preclinical branches were tobe greatly aided by this increased endowment. Recently it has been decided to askfor contributions from the Rush alumnigroup for the endowment of distinctlymedicai purposes, such subscriptions beingadded only to the funds for medicai education.As our alumni constitute about one-fourth the total of the University alumniand as the alumni quota of the endowmentfund has been set at two million dollars,the Rush Alumni Committee has set out toraise $500,000 for medicai endowment inconnection with the larger plans of the University for medicai education. To reachthis goal we need the loyal support ofevery Rush alumnus. We are calling onyou to show your loyalty not only to Rushbut to the University of Chicago, of wThichyou are now alumni. Let it not be saidthat the sons and daughters of "Old Rush"have been tried and found wanting. Maywe not count on you to help the RushAlumni Committee in its efforts to advanceRush to its proper position in the ranks ofmedicai schools? Rush can do much forthe University by showing its loyal financialsupport at this time and can bring to fullaccomplishment the plans of the late President Burton, whose work and hopes for thefuture of Rush Medicai College are well-known to you ali. Let us pulì together forRush and for the University.(Addrcss dcìivcrcd at the Annual Banquet ofRush Medicai College Faculty and Alumni, lastdune.)First Annual Alumni HomecomingTHE first annual Homecoming ofour Alumni was scheduled for No-vember 14, 1925, at the time of theChicago-Dartmouth football game on StaggField. After several years of consideringthe inauguration of a fall Homecoming,circumstances developed which urged andfully justified the inauguration of such anAlumni event this year. The committeeappointed by the Alumni Council to conductthis affair consisted of Donald P. Bean,'17, chairman, Charles F. Axelson, '07,William H. Lyman, '14, Roderick Mac-Pherson, '16, and A. G. Pierrot, '07, Secretary. After several months of study andpreparation, the following program wasannounced :Homecoming Program12:00 — Class and organization lunch-eons, as arranged.1 :oo — Ceremony at the Corner-stonelajang of the new AthleticField House.2 :oo — rChicago-Dartmouth FootballGame.3 :oo — Frenzied Frolics between halves.4:30 — First Annual Homecoming Cele-bration in Bartlett Gymna-sium.6 30 — Fraternity and organization din-ners and dances, as arranged ;general dancing, in the Reynolds Club.In addition to the regular program, re-turning Alumni were invited to inspect aliof the new buildings now under constructionat the University, including the Theologybuilding, Bond Chapel, Billings Hospital,Whitman Laboratory, the new Medicaibuildings and the construction conditionsof the new University Chapel.At the corner-stone laying ceremony,President Mason, Director Stagg, andothers officiated.

Through thisopening number of theMax Mason M agazine and other me-diums our Alumni already know of thismost important administrative development,and also know something of the background,achievements and character of the man whohas just recently become the fourth President of the University. To that list ofdistinguished educational leaders — Harper,Judson, Burton — is now added the nameof a man who gives full promise of meas-uring up in every way to great and variedresponsibilities, and of carrying on effec-tively and successfully the many and ardu-ous tasks involved in the presidency of theUniversity.There is no question of his thorough fitness through education, training and ex-perience, or of his notable ability. Ali whohave thus far met President' Mason, how-ever, have remarked on certain characteris-tics that at once impress those who comein contact with him. These particular qual-ities are his genuine naturalness, his frank-ness, and his warm and broad-mindedunderstanding. In a word, PresidentMason is engagingly "human." He con-fesses that his election was an overwhelminglife experience, one that literally swept himoff his feet. He has repeatedly expresscdhis profound appreciation of the honor con-ferred upon him, of the heavy responsibilities, and of the wholehearted welcome he has received on every side. In similar spirit,he has promptly taken the entire University.and the Alumni into his confidence.President Mason has dedicated himselfunreservedly to the continued up-buildingof the University. In taking ali of his co-workers and the Alumni so frankly and sowarmly into his confidence he has quicklywon their fullest confidence in turn, andtheir sincere assurance of support ali alongthe line. We happily promise again, here.the enthusiastic and steady support of ali theAlumni. Under his open and friendly leadership we can rightly look forward tounited, constructive efforts on behalf of theUniversity.The darkness of sorrow and disappoint-ment that fell upon the dose of the Uni-versity-year recently ended has given way tothe light of new inspiration, new hope, andto renewed aims and reconsecrated energies.The new year starts most auspiciously, andespecially so because of our new leader,President Max Mason.ON" November 14, with the Dartmouth-Chicago football game as a "majorattraction," Ave hold our first AnnualAlumni Homecoming.Such an event on the an- Homecomingnual calendar of our general Alumni affairs had long been consid-ered ; but, for various reasons, not the leastof which was the real problem of takingproper care of returning Alumni in thewell-known seating limitations at StaggField, it had been postponed each vear. ThisidEVENTS AND COMMlìNT 17year, though, because of opportunities af-forded by ceremonies in connection withthe new Field House, development of newbuildings at the University, and an out-standing Eastern-Western intersectionalgame, it was felt that, regardless of seriousseating difficulties, a Homecoming programshould be inaugurated. The response fromAlumni everywhere was immediate andhighly encouraging, clearly indicating a suc-cessful Alumni assembly for this event.The Magazine, it happens, goes to pressjust about November 14. This preventseither a lengthy advance announcement ora review of the occasion in this number.The general plans and program, neverthe-less, are presented ; and a review will ap-pear in the December issue.Despite present difficulties, we are pleasedthat this feature has now been added toour annual Alumni program. We believethat the Homecoming of 1925 will be butthe successful and interesting forerunner ofa long succession of noteworthy Alumnigatherings at the University during the fallseason.THE Alumni Campaign in connectionwith the Development Program of theUniversity, opened last March, was handi-Finish capped in two respects. Because of unavoidable circum-the job stances, it was not begun untilthe spring of the year, whereas it is generallyconceded that such large campaigns, forgreatest effectiveness, can best be started inthe early fall, thus allowing considerablylonger time for complete developmentthrough the year. In the second place,just as the Campaign was reaching its climax it received a great and sudden blowin the death of President Ernest DeWittBurton. These two factors, coming at criticai times, undoubtedly handicapped theCampaign most seriously ; as one result, theAlumni quota, $2,000,000, was not ob-tained. As this year opens there remainsabout $500,000 to be raised, if the Alumniare to meet the quota they adopted.This fall the Alumni Campaign is beingcontinued, and properly so, with the aim ofobtaining the needed Alumni quota as soon as possible. Frankly, it is not a questionvvhether this remainder should be raised.It simply must be raised. Not only theneeds of the University require it, but thesuccess of the campaign among the generalpublic depends greatly upon a completedAlumni quota. The quota adopted by theAlumni was not an arbitrary figure ; it wasbased on the absolute requirements of theUniversity in its endowment needs, andupon a fair and confident judgment of theloyalty and capacity of our thousands ofAlumni to meet such a sum. We believethat that judgment was not misplaced — butwe need subscriptions to prove it.There are some Alumni who might wellbe able to add to the subscriptions they havealready made ; and certainly there are several thousand who can afford to give some-thing to the cause, though the amount besmall, who have not thus far subscribed.Every gift, large or small, is indeed welcome ; every gift advances the cause ; everygift strengthens the University in its greateffort. In this Campaign our Alumni haveundertaken their first "big job" on behalfof their University. Our record on thisjob should not stand as a record of "unfin-ished business." It is a work which we canand should complete. Above ali else, fellowAlumni, our quota must be met — the jobmust be finished !THIS November issue, the first to "caliupon you" since our July number,starts the new Magazine-year.

Lyman, president of theChicago Alumni Club, presided ably andhumorously in the role of toastmaster. Mr.George I. Haight, chairman of the University of Wisconsin Alumni Association, spokeconcerning the University of Wisconsin,telling of some of its many great achieve-ments, and using this material as a background for describing Max Mason as a"product" of the University. He told of thegreat esteem in which Professor Mason hadalways been held by the Wisconsin Alumni,the students and the members of the faculty,and congratulated Chicago on having se-cured Dr. Mason for its new president.Grace A. Coulter, president of the ChicagoAlumnae Club, spoke of the new era beforethe Alumni and Alumnae of the Universityof Chicago, in the way of cooperating withthe new president for the advancement ofthe institution. Harold H. Swift, presidentof the board of trustees of the University,told of the method in which Dr. Mason wasselected as president, after an investigationof a large list of names extending over aperiod of weeks of intensive studv and ef-fort.The speakers also paid tribute to Mrs.Mason who was one of the guests of honor.When President Mason arose to speak,he received an ovation from the gathering.With his customary frank and sincere man-ner he told of his feelings upon being electedpresident and of his profound realization ofthe great rcsponsibilities that had now comeupon him. He stated that he was "notreally a president," but just now "learning AFFAI R Sto be one." He said, "If I hadn't acceptedthe presidency, I should not have been fairto my conviction that scientists should aidgeneral education when the opportunitycomes. I am changing from a narrow scien-tific field to the broad headship of a greatuniversity. But I am stili in the transi-tional stage. I hope you Alumni will be mypartners."After the program, which was accom-panied by music, songs and yells of bothWisconsin and Chicago, an informai reception for the President was held. Thespirit and enthusiasm of this occasion ranhigh, and the assembly proved, indeed, amost fitting tribute to the new President ofthe University.\ ermont Club Contributesto FundSpringfield, Vt.October 12, 1925.THAVE before me your letter of Septem-i- ber 30, and note with satisfaction theprogress of the University.

For we have cometo realize anew that the University is "firstin the hearts of Chicago men" — and women.Dean Wilkins laid a good foundationlast fall (dinner at the Brevoort, November13) with his report of the humanizing, per-sonalizing measures the University hasadopted to safeguard the things at Chicagowhich we cherish most.Then carne the Burton dinner, March 9,at the Roosevelt — the largest and most rep-resentative Chicago group ever assembledin New York. You probably have alreadyhad many enthusiastic verbal reports of thismeeting. With New York Chairman Ernest Quantrell, '05 presiding ; Mrs. Glen-rose Bell Caraway, '97, with her pat storiesand contagious enthusiasm, exhorting; OtisCaldwell, Ph. D. '98, thinking out loud onthe Alumni's reaction to the campaign ; andthe campus movies sent on from Chicago,the meeting started out to be a success. Butafter ali, these were but curtain raisers.This was the BURTON dinner, and itwas dominated by our splendid President.Simply, earnestly, President Burton spokeas a prophet of the new Chicago, giving usthe background of our task for Chicago andthe inspiration to accomplish that task. Howlittle any of us dreamed then that thatwould be the last Burton dinner in NewYork!Next month carne the Vincent-Stagg dinner at the Town Hall Club, (Aprii 19)which dramatized the task for Chicago withthe football game in which every $1,000pledged carried the ball ten yards for Chicago. Coached by John P. Mentzer, '98,Chicago District Chairman, we carried theball, one by one or table by table until thescore showed $28,300 in addition to the$70,000 pledged before the meeting. Twice Mrs. Frank A. Vanderlip (Narcissa Cox,03), fleet as McCarty, carried the ball thelength of the field for a touchdown.Of course,- much credit for this livelymeeting goes to Vincent and Stagg. Whata team they were : Vincent, the scintillat-ing wit, the inimitable heaper-up of words,the recaller of memories, the thought de-tonator ; Stagg, the well beloved, the eter-nally boyish, the homely humorist, theemotion detonator. And these two wereably assisted by Mrs. Vanderlip whom Vincent introduced as a "coed," Arthur Bestor,'01, booming from the back of the roomin his "public speaking" voice, and "HardBoiled Herbie" (Zimmerman, '01) tellingjust how they did it in Chicago.Moreover, something had happened "toChicagoans since the Burton dinner. Theliterature which we had ali received andsome of us had read, and the contacts wemade lunching together for Chicago — at theMetropolitan Club, the Commodore, theColumbia Faculty Club, and the FraternityClub — -had released certain springs of interest and loyalty. At the Roosevelt wehad been very dignified — rather "Eastern,"a little bit cold. The Committee had de-cided to have very little cheering, because"Chicago doesn't cheer well." A few hardyspirits almost broke into song, but the meeting ended without any vocalization. At theTown Hall Club, with Stagg cheerleader,we made so much noise that the Club management had to apologize for us to otherguests in the Club. Something had happened to Chicago spirit.Several other get-togethers have followed.Forty women gathered at the annual springluncheon of the Alumnae Club at the TownHall Club, Aprii 4. Reunioning and thecampaign were the order of the day. Chairman Florence Spencer, ex-'o3, presided.Thirty met Saturday, May 23, at theEdgewood School, Greenwich, Conn., uponinvitation of Euphrosyne Langley, Directorof the School. A thunder shower afterlunch, which postponed excursions into thecountryside, provided more opportunity tolearn about this interesting "modem"school and to sing Chicago songs by candle-light in the fine large living room.20 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINEMr. and Mrs. Harry Caraway enter-tained the Development Campaign Committee at a most delightful luncheon, June 20,at their summer home at Carmel, NewYork.

Your Magazine is doublywelcome, therefore.When I first carne here three years ago,the average person, throughout the East,knew little, if anything, about our MiddleWestern Universities. They were supposedto be small and unimportant. There hadbeen a few intersectional football games, aliof which had been disastrous to the East.Chicago had beaten Princeton in the"Tigers" own lair, while Nebraska andNotre Dame had contributed notably.There was much resentment, and many pa-pers made very vituperative attacks on theWestern teams, alleging lax eligibility rulesand unsportsmanlike methods of play. Thisundoubtedly was due in a large part to theircolossal ignorance of the situation in theMiddle West. Of the rules and regula-tions of the Western Conference, which farexceeded anything they had here in the East,they knew absolutely nothing.In the past three years, with the schedul-ing of more and more intersectional con-tests, there has been a considerable changein this attitude and a general awakeninghere as to what we have out there. I donot mean football ability now, but the cali-bre and resources of our colleges and universities. I wish heartily to congratulatethe "Big Ten," therefore, on the abandon-ment of their "Isolation" policy and, inparticular, Mr. Stagg on scheduling twogames this year with Eastern teams.After ali, football is certainly a great advertising medium for the American College. Much as it may be distasteful tomany persons, as long as we play the gamefair and square, it really means something to have a good, and therefore well known,team. I know of two boys here in a Vermont small town, whose attention was at-tracted to the University of Illinois andwhat it offered, solely because of the ex-ploits of "Red" Grange. They are enroll-ing there this fall.Austin H. Hobson, Ph.B.

Scopesin Dayton, Tennessee, for teachingevolution, three prominent members of theUniversity of Chicago Faculties discussedaspects of the case with which their studieshave made them most familiar — DeanShailer Mathews, of the Divinity School,Professor H. H. Newman, of the Department of Zoòlogy, and Dean James ParkerHall, of the Law School. The first twowere invited to appear as witnesses for thedefense.Among other things Dean Mathews saidthat "he who understands the Bible in ac-cordance with actual facts has no difficultyin realizing the truth of its teaching thatGod is in the processes which have producedand sustain mankind. It is only those whoare ignorant, both of the origin and natureof the Bible and of the facts in our universe, who are terrified lest science shouldmake them lose their faith." He empha-sized his belief that the theory of evolution,properly understood, adds new strength tothe arguments which justify a religious in-terpretation of the world.Rotundity of the earth, the law of gravi-tation, and other scientific discoveries havebeen challenged by theologians, ProfessorNewman pointed out, and ali have survived ;but this is the first time an attempt hasbeen made to combat science with law.The conclusion of Dean Hall's addresswas that it is unlikely the Tennessee statuteviolates the United States constitution, andthere is considerable doubt about its violat-ing any clause of the Tennessee constitution.The statements of University of Chicagoprofessors incorporated in the record of theScopes case include those of Dean ShailerMathews, of the Divinity School ; Dr. Fay-Cooper Cole, anthropologist ; Professor H.H. Newman, of the Department of Zoòlogy; and Director Charles Hubbard Judd,of the School of Education. NOTESIn his statement Dean Mathews said,among other things, that "the book of Gen-esis is not intended to teach science but theactivity of God in nature and the spiritualvalue of man. It is a religious interpreta-tion of nature and God's relation thereto,in which the inspired writers use the bestof the then current knowledge of the universe to show how God was in the creativeprocess, and how that process culminatedin man possessed of both animai and divineelements. The theory of evolution is anattempt to explain the process in detail."Animals most closely resembling man,Dr. Fay Cooper-Cole declared, are theanthropoid apes. "A careful study showsthat they have specialized in their way quiteas much as man has in his, so that whilethey are very similar, yet it is evident thatman's line of descent is not through any ofthese anthropoids. It does appear, however,that both man and other primates have acommon precursor, but that the anthropoidsmust have branched off from the commonstock in very remote times.""The principle of evolution," said Professor Newman in his statement, "standsin the first rank among naturai laws, notonly in its range of applicability, but in thedegree of validity, to such an extent that itmay claim to rank as an established law.It is the one great law of life. It dependsfor its validity not on conjecture and philosophy but on exactly the same sort of evi-dence as do other laws of nature.""In my judgment," said Director Juddin his statement admitted to the record,"it will be quite impossible to carry on thework in most departments in most higherinstitutions of Tennessee without teachingthe doctrine of evolution as the fundamen-tal basis for understanding ali human institutions."The defendant, John T. Scopes, is now astudent in the Graduate School of the University.24university notes 25Expedition to Armageddonfrom the UniversityUNDER the direction of ProfessorJames Henry Breasted, Head of theUniversity of Chicago Orientai Institute,an expedition to the ruins of the ancientfortified town of Armageddon in Palestine,the famous "battle ground of the ages,"launched about the middle of August, whenProfessor Clarence Fisher, the field director, sailed from New York to begin thework. He was followed at the end of themonth by Dr. D. F. Higgins, assistantdirector, and E. L. De Loach, assistantgeologist.The work this fall will be devoted tomaking an accurate survey of the area including the mound of Megiddo — an area ofabout a square mile — and collecting a forceof about 400 natives. Thereafter the ex-cavating will be done during the hot sum-mers to avoid the heavy rains of the otherseasons.The party hopes to locate the lost citywhere Thutmose III defeated the King ofKadesh in the first battle (1479 B.C.) ofwhich history has preserved a detailed record. Megiddo was the south Syrian capitalof the southern Hittite empire and becauseof its strategie position at the pass over thetransverse Carmel Ridge blocking the mili-tary and commercial path from Egypt towestern Asia became the battle ground ofthe nations. Under the name of "Armageddon" it has taken on in recent years anew dramatic interest due to the victorythere of General Allenby over the Turksduring the Great War and to the strikingstatement of President Roosevelt that"America stood at Armageddon."Dr. Higgins, the geologist from the University of Chicago, will supervise the erec-tion at the foot of the Megiddo mound ofa building combining office facilities andliving quarters, the first section consistingof five rooms and a vault for the importantarchaeological discoveries, and the secondsection containing a dormitory of ninerooms. The army of native laborers willestablish their own quarters on the fringeof the University community. Former Dean Edith Foster FlintDean of Women Replacedby Women's BoardINITIATING an administrative policywhich it believes many other co-edu-cational institutions will follow, the University of Chicago recently created awomen's council, composed of fifteen ormore members, with Mrs. Edith FosterFlint as chairman, to take the place of theoffice of dean of women, from which postDean Marion Talbot retired last June.This council will be composed of womenholding administrative positions at the University, with an executive committee ofthree, and with Dean Flint, an associate professor in the English department, as chairman. It will deal with ali questions affect-ing the women students of the University.In announcing the formation of thecouncil, James H. Tufts, vice president anddean of f aculties, said :"At the opening of the University ofChicago in 1892 unusual attention wasgiven to the needs of women students.During 33 years the position of dean ofwomen carne to be of great importance, andmore than 300 colleges now have suchofficials."In view of the retirement of MissTalbot, discussion of the question of her26 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINEsuccessor was taken up with women of theUniversity holding professional positions.The question was raised whether at thistime there might be taken some further stepin advance which should conserve thisvaluable organization worked out by DeanTalbot and which should perhaps secure awider participation by women members ofthe faculty in dealing with various problemsaffecting women students."The step thus taken is analogous to anumber of changes in the organization ofthe University, in the effort to emphasizecooperative methods of dealing with educational problems, in place of the administration by a single executive which was moreinvoked during earlier years."à £. «Laying the Corner Stone ofthe blllings hospitalTHE ceremony of laying the cornerstone of the Albert Merritt BillingsHospital at the University of Chicago, onOctober 2, drew a large number of famousmedicai men, university officials, and hospital authorities. President Max Masonpresided and Dr. Henry Asbury Christian,of the Peter Bent Brigham Hospital of Boston, who is professor in the Medicai Schoolof Harvard University, delivered a notableaddress on "Some Problems of Medicai In-vestigation and Education." The cornerstone was laid by Dr. Frank Billings, neph-ew of the prominent Chicagoan in whosememory the hospital is being erected. Secretary J. Spencer Dickerson, of the University Board of Trustees, made a statement ofthe contents of the stone.Among the invited guests were deans andmembers of the faculties of ali the medicaischools in Chicago ; superintendents andother officials of ali the hospitals; heads ofuniversities and colleges ; President Cermak,of the Cook County Board of Commis-sioners; Health Commissioner Bundesen ;and many other Chicagoans of prominence,such as Max Epstein and Frederick H.Rawson, who have contributed generousfunds toward the University's program ofmedicai instruction and research. The ex- ercises of the day ended with a dinner at theQuadrangle Club of the University given inhonor of Dr. Christian and Dr. Billings.The new hospital, facing the Midway,is the centrai building of the group nowbeing constructed for the School of Medicine of the University. The Epstein Dis-pensary, gift of Max Epstein, is anotherimportant building of the group, whichincludes also structures for research andinstruction in surgery, medicine, pathology,physiology, and physiological chemistryand pharmacology. The total cost has beenestimated at $4,500,000.Chicago, a City of DestinyTHE series of lectures given a year agoin Orchestra Hall, Chicago, by distinguished professors from the University, wasreceived with so much appreciation andenthusiasm by citizens of Chicago that theUniversity has decided to give anotherseries of six lectures this season. The firstlecture, on "The Geographic Backgroundof Chicago: A City of Destiny," was givenon the evening of October 13 in OrchestraHall, by Dr. J. Paul Goode, professor ofEconomie Geograplvy and Cartography.Professor Goode, who was the expertfor the Chicago Harbor Commission onthe development of the great ports of Europe and has been president of the Geographic Society of Chicago, received in 1923the Helen Culver gold medal for distinguished achievement in cartography.The fact that Chicago in less than a cen-tury has grown from an obscure village tothe fourth city of the world is a matter ofcommon knowledge, but just what theforces are that have brought about this re-markable development are only vaguelyknown. Chicago as an industriai and commercial center occupies a position of advan-tage in the service of a vast tributar}' region,and the geographic influences at work in thisregion are largely responsible for the growthof Chicago. In the lecture, which was il-lustrated, an attempt was made to evaluatethe greater of these forces that tend to makeChicago a city of destiny.university notes -7New Appointments andPromotionsANNOUNCEMENT of new appointments and promotions has just beenmade by the University Board of Trustees,as follows:Albert A.

At center, two sopho-mores, Kenneth Rouse '28, and C. M.Baker '28, are the leading candidates. Bakerweighs 182 lbs. and is a good passer. Rouse,who weighs about 175 lbs., was captain ofthe freshman team last year. Both of thesemen are very aggressive and make up fortheir lack of weight by their quick charge.Two guards who have won their lettersare again trying for the team: MartinPokrass '26, 202 lbs. and Sam Hibben '26,191 lbs. In addition to these men areHobart Neff '27, 225 lbs., E. J. Redden,'27, 198 lbs., and L. Wolf '28, 178 lbs.,who are well qualified to be used at anytime. As the Chicago style of attack neces-sitates using fresh guards from time totime, ali five of these men may play in everygame.At left tackle Captain Fred Henderson'26, 208 lbs. promises to be one of the finesttackles in the Big Ten. Henderson hasheight and weight, and is most powerfuland aggressive. Fred Hobscheid '26, 210lbs., who substituted until the Illinois gamelast season, is now the regular right tackle.For many years Chicago has been noted forits powerful lines. With such men asHenderson, Hibben, Pokrass, and Hobscheid, the Maroons have now one of thebest forward walls in the conference. Othercandidates for tackle include G. A. Scott'26, F. Olwin '28, and D. M. Cockran '28.These men show promise, but lack gameexperience.Four letter men at end were lost last yearby graduation, but Elmer Lampe '26, 192lbs., who was not in college last fall, isagain back, and is certain to star this season.Lampe is 6 ft. 3 in. tali, and is one of themost powerful ends who has ever played for Chicago. He is a fine blocker, andstrong defensive end, as well as a most ablepass catcher. Donald Yeisley '28, 180 lbs.,has won the right end position. Yeisley isa fine pass catcher, and a strong defensiveplayer. Among the other candidates forend are John McDonough '28, F. L. Apitz'28, and F. O. Clark '27. These men looklike promising players who should developduring the season.There are three letter men at quarterback,William Abbott '26, 178 lbs., ThorpeDrain '27, 165 lbs., and Robert E. Curley'26, 145 lbs., and usually each of these threemen is used in every game. Abbott, whoplayed tackle in his high school days at OakPark is a big man, and a strong blocker.Drain and Curley are "ponies," relying moreon speed than weight to make themselveseffective. Abbott is good place kicker,while Drain and Curley are drop kickers.At left halfback, G. A. Kernwein '26,168 lbs. is playing for his third year. Heis very fast, having won his letter in trackas a sprinter. He does the punting for theMaroons, and is a good forward passer.Walter Marks '27, 182 lbs. has beenchanged from f ullback this year, and is nowoccupying the right halfback berth. Marksis a long forward passer, and fair punter,and is now readily adapting himself to hisnew position. He is also an excellent inter-ferer, and should rate as one of the best half-backs in the middle west. Other halfbacksinclude Stanley Rouse '27, 175 lbs., who isa strong runner, Charles Duval '28, 183lbs., a good runner and superior forwardpasser, C. B. McKinney '27, 165 lbs., whois a clever dodger, and Kyle Anderson '28,150 lbs., who is a good passer, and cleverball carrier. With the exception of Rousethese men ali lack game experience, but will3°ATHLETICS 3ibe used more and more as the season ad-vances. Duval mighfc be rated as the great-est individuai star on the team, but hehas not had an opportunity as yet to per-form because of injuries. Duval was abrilliant forward passer in high school atHyde Park, throwing the ball for distancesof from 40 to 50 yards.For the last four years fullbacks haveplayed an important part in Coach Stagg'smachine. Among the most promising ofthese are Austin McCarty '26, 180 lbs.,Raynor Timme '26, 199 lbs., and GeneFrancis '26, 175 lbs. McCarty last yearwas rated as being the greatest line plungerin the conference, reaching his peak in theIllinois game. Raynor Timme is not asfast nor quite as brilliant, but he is shortand stocky, exceedingly hard to down, andstrong on defense.With better prospects than last year,when Chicago won the championship, CoachStagg started his thirty-fourth year as headcoach of football at the University. Prac-tice started in with a scrimmage the first dayand almost every day after that for threeweeks some heavy work was in order.The CoachesFranklin Gowdy and Joe Pondelik, re-spectively captain and All-American guardof the 1924 team, were immediately put incharge of the line, taking the place of Col-ville Jackson, line coach since 1921, whois no longer in the city. These men workedhard whipping the line into shape. Campbell Dickson '23 who was assistant at Minnesota last year, was given charge of theends, while in the absense of Nelson Nor-gren, who is touring with the baseball teamin Japan, Herbert Crisler '21 became firstassistant to Coach Stagg, having charge ofthe backfield. "Jimmy" Pyott, captain ofthe 1923 Chicago team, works out dailywith the punters.The GamesThe squad advanced rapidly and was verymuch ahead of last year's team at the timeof the first game against Kentucky onOctober 3. Kentucky put up a strong defensive fight against the Maroons, holding Captain Fred Henderson '26Chicago to 9 points, but never threatening."Bob" Curley made the first score of theseason with a drop kick from the 28-yardline in the second quarter, while late in thegame Stanley Rouse carried the ball acrossfor a touchdown. Rouse was an outstandingground gainer in this game. The game wasnotable for good playing on Chicago's part,and was played practically without error.On the following Saturday, Chicago metOhio State in one of the most importantgames of the season. Ohio with theirsophomore star, Marek, was reputed tohave a Conference championship team insight, and their best material in ten years.The game itself was a thriller. Chicagostarted out with a strong offense, but almostafter the first exchange of punts, Cunning-ham threw a long forward pass to Wendlerwho carried the ball to Chicago's io-yardline. In a desperate stand the Maroonsheld Ohio for four downs, getting the ballon their four yard line. After Chicagopunted, Ohio was able to work the balldown within scoring distance, Jenkins scor-ing a place kick from the 30-yd. line. Chicago's score carne early in the second halfwhen, after a brilliant march, including aTHE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINElong forward pass from Kernwein toLampe, Chicago carried the ball down tothe 7-yard line and, being held, Draindropped back and kicked a drop kick thattied the game, 3 to 3. The rest of thecontest was featured by a strong offense onChicago's part, but Ohio held, and neitherteam was able to score. The playing ofCaptain Henderson, Timme, "Wallie"Marks and Drain were features. Ohioplayed in mid-season form, and displayedgreat power at ali times.On the following Saturday, Northwestern, keyed to the limit and in a frenzy,fought desperately but vainly against theMaroons, who won 6 to o. Chicago in thefirst half started with many substitutes, andalthough the team gained much ground, washeld without scoring. In the third period,however, with the regulars playing, Chicagotwice got within scoring distance, and Curley put over two drop kicks. In the last fewminutes of play, McCarty intercepted a forward pass in Northwestern territory andthe game ended with Chicago plunging onthird down to the four inch mark. Chicagomade 15 first downs against 7 of the Pur-ple's, making a total of 260 yards fromscrimmage.The Chicago team, to date, seems not tohave fully found itself. Defensively, thereis probably no better in the country. Theteam on offense has much latent power, butas Coach Stagg's style of play is extremelycomplicated, the full power of attack wasnot reached in the earlier games.As the season goes along, Chicago'soffense will grow in power and in variation.With seven hard games, including the intersectional games with Pennsylvania andDartmouth, two of the leading teams in theEast, Chicago this year has the hardest8-game schedule in its history. In each ofthese games the opponents will be keyed tothe limit to beat the champions of the BigTen of 1924. Coach Stagg this season hasturned more and more to using great numbers of reserves in every game. He usedthirty-three men against Kentucky, twenty-one men played against Ohio, and twentv-two against Northwestern, and twenty-fouragainst Pennsylvania. The game with Pennsylvania, on October24th, at Franklin Field, Philadelphia, wasdisappointing, not so much in the loss of thegame as in the unfortunate weather condi-tions which made it virtually impossible forChicago to use the offence it had plannedpurposely for this game. Pennsylvania won,7-0, scoring a touchdown in the first quarter,after some brilliant advances, particularlythrough forward passes. The touchdownwas made by a long forward pass. As thegame wore on, the heavy rain, which continued to pour down throughout the contest,turned the game into a mud-sliding affair,and made it most difficult for either team tomake consistent headway. Chicago, however, on three occasions, succeeded in working the ball down to within scoring distance,but was not able to advance effectively' atthe criticai moments. Under the conditions,it was a credit to both teams that the playwas so dose and often thrilling. Every-thing considered, the many Maroon rootersfrom various sections of the East, and thosewho made the trip to Philadelphia from Chicago on a Maroon Rooter's Special, felt sat-isfied that Chicago had revealed itself as apowerful team, both offensively and defensively.ti. £ £The New Fieldhol:seWORK on the new fieldhouse at theUniversity will be far enough ad-vanced so that the corner stone may be laidon the day Chicago plays Dartmouth,November 14. The new building for indoor athletics and intramural sports, whichthe University has long been planning, willnot be located within Stagg Field, as at firstproposed, but across from the field on thenortheast corner of Greenwood Avenue andFifty-sixth Street.The total seating capacity is 9,000, andan additional thousand can be seated forconvocations and other large universityfunctions.

H. Spencer, DeanTHE School of Commerce and Administration since about 1914 haskept before itself certain very definite objectives toward which it has beensteadily working. Naturally, one of the firstobjectives to which the School gave its at-tention was the development of a competentteaching staff. Although modesty forbidsme to speak fully on this subject, I shall atleast venture the assertion that it would bedifficult to find a more vigorous, energetic,cooperative and effective group of men thanthe group which now constitutes the Staffof the School of Commerce and Administration.Another objective to which the Schoolearly turned its attention was that of thedevelopment of a well-rounded curriculum.That it has such a curriculum at the presenttime no one who has any appreciation ofwhat is involved in training for business willdeny. This program is set forth in ourregular publications, and I need not, in thisconnection, give a detailed statement of it.I do wish, however, to cali attention to certain changes which have been made duringthe last two or three years. The old seriesof courses which confronted the first yearstudents — Politicai Economy o (IndustriaiSociety), Commerce and Administration 01(Business Administration), and PoliticaiEconomy I (Val uè and Distribution in Industriai Society), have disappeared. Intheir place, this year, for the first time, weare starting our students into a series ofcourses which we cali Economie Organization, the first quarter of which is devotedto the Financial Organization of Society, thesecond to the Market Organization of Society, and the third to the Worker in Economie Society. In the second year it isplanned to continue the study of the Economie Organization by giving the studentsin their first quarter Transportation andCommunication in Economie Society, Riskand Risk-Bearing in Economie Society, andSocial Control of Business Activities. With the withdrawal of Industriai Society andValue and Distribution in Economie Societyfrom the first year, we are planning todevelop a course in Business Economics anda course in Business Policies which will beavailable for students after they have com-pleted twenty-seven majors of work.The third objective which the School setbefore itself in the beginning was the development of materials for the teaching ofbusiness. At the present time some eighteenvolumes in the series of business materialshave already been published, three or fourare now in the press, and five or six are inthe final stage of preparation. Any one in-terested in knowing what titles have beenpublished can secure complete informationby addressing a communication to Mr. D.P. Bean of the University Press or to theOffice of the School of Commerce and Administration.Another objective which has been kept inview is the development of business research. There are now in the School ofCommerce and Administration thirty research assistants who, under the directionof members of the Staff, are doing researchin business problems. Beginning this yearthe School of Commerce and Administration is entering upon two new rather largeresearch projeets in cooperation with theLaura Spelman Rockefeller MemorialFoundation. One in the field of PersonnelAdministration is under the supervision ofMr. R. W. Stone who was formerly director of research of the Industriai ConferenceBoard in New York and now a member ofthe Staff of the School of Commerce andAdministration. The other, in the field ofTerminal Marketing, is under the super-vision of Mr. E. A. Duddy. These twoprojeets are very promising, not only fromthe point of view of the University, butfrom the point of view of the business community as well. In addition to the researchassistants regularly appointed by the School,beginning this year, fifteen research assist-3334 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINEants have been appointed by the Instituteof Meat Packing of the School of Commerce and Administration, who, whiledoing graduate work, will be conductingresearch in the packing industry. The Uni-versitv Journal of Business which is nowentering its third year provides in large partan outlet for the publication of the resultsof our research.Another objective which the School ofCommerce and Administration has beenworking toward has been the developmentof a better coordination between the work ofsecondar}- schools and the work of the college and university. For a long time Mr.Marshall, former Dean of the School ofCommerce and Administration, has beenconvinced that the secondar}' schools havegiven neither sufficient nor proper attentionto the social sciences. Accordingly, he con-ceived the idea of developing, in the fieldof social science, a series of texts for secondar}- schools. These are now being preparedby experts under his supervision. Thisproject is being fìnanced by the School ofCommerce and Administration and by theCommonwealth Foundation. The first ofthe series, the "Story of Human Progress,"written by Mr. Marshall himself, has ai-ready been published by MacMillan andCompany. Six or eight volumes in differentfields are now practically ready for publication. In ali, when the series is completed,there will be ten or twelve titles. There isno doubt but that the series when publishedwill have a profound influence upon theteaching of social sciences in secondaryschools as time goes on. This will mean thatstudents will come to the University withvery much better ground work and preliminare training in the social sciences thanthey have ever come before. It also meansthat the School of Commerce and Administration will more and more as time goes onbe compelled to readjust its own programto meet the needs of these students who willcome with better preparation for the studyof business than before. It means also thatgraduate work in business and economicswill be influenced by the better coordinationof the work in the secondary schools andthe University in the field of social science. Finally, attention should be called to thefact that the School is stili continuing itsexperimental methods in an effort to makeits work more real and effective. The psy-chological tests begun in 191 5 continue.The sectioning of courses on the basis ofability begun in 191 6 is stili carried on.Beginning this year with the first yearstudents an attempt will be made to carrythe idea of the "invitation sections" evenfurther than they have been carried in thepast. We are planning to develop a groupof students who in their fourth year willbe qualifìed to do semicreative and creativework. It is our hope that we shall be ableto provide these students with superior administration and instructional facilities andto free them from many routine require-ments which are ordinarily laid upon students. If these plans are successful, weshall have students in their senior year whoare capable of doing independent work ofa character now expected of graduate students.à « «Conference on Educationand IndustryTHE Second Annual Conference onEducation and Industry was held inMandel Hall in connection with the Twen-tieth Annual Meeting of the Institute ofAmerican Meat Packers, October 21. TheSchool of Commerce and Administrationand the Institute Pian Commission arranged this notable joint assembly.

Ten ofthem gathered at lunch on September 3rd,making an increase of about 300 per centover the last previous similar luncheon.Whereupon great exultation on the part ofthe promoter of said luncheons, GeorgeMaurice Morris, J.D. '15, of Washington,D. C. The meeting instructed the Secretary to write to Dean Hall, which wasdone. The letter covers the luncheon sofully that it is here reproduced : Dear Dean Hall:—I was instructed to write to you by the ChicagoLaw men who took lunch together September 3,1925, at the Book-Cadillac Hotel in Detroit, Michigan, during the meeting of the American BarAssociation. There were present:Herbert V. Barbour, JD '05, DetroitJoseph L. Brody, JD '15, Des Moines, IowaGeorge M. Morris, JD '15, Washington, D. C.John C. Pryor, JD 'io, Burlington, IowaM. L.

MacCracken, Jr.,JD '12, and Paul M. O'Donnell, JD '09, of Chicago; Deloss P. Shull, JD '12, Sioux City, Iowa;and Joseph W. Madden, JD '14, Morgantown,W. Va.As you probably already know, Mr. MacCracken was elected Secretary of the Association, whichali Chicago Law men are rejoicing over.We discussed the Law School from manvangles. They wish me to convey to you an ex-pression of their renewed regard for the LawSchool, and their affection for yourself and theother members of the faculty whom they knew intheir law school days.Constructively they hope the Law School willreach out for funds to keep pace with the idealswhich were expressed by you and Prof. Wood-ward at our annual dinner last June. In fact,some fear is felt that unless a financial programis undertaken, our school may not keep pace withsome whom it has formerly rivaled and even led.It was also hoped that something be done ifpossible to carry out the suggestion in Lord Buck-master's address to acquaint the law students witha better knowledge of the men who have helpedto develop the law. I enclose a copy of LordBuckmaster's address, which was probably themost enjoyed address of them ali. I enclose alsoa copy of President Hughes' address, which waseasily the masterpiece of learning and logie atthe meeting.Charles F.

With new format, new chapters,new rules and suggestions and new specimens of type, it embodies the best typo-graphical rules of today, and includes thebest of modem type faces.Nearly three decades ago the first proof-reader at the University Press jotted downat odd moments a single sheet of rules forhis own guidance. This was the beginningof the Manual of Style. Each year addi-tional usages have crystallized until today the Manual is the most comprehensive, har-monious, and practical treatment of typo-graphical form to be had. Seven editions,each running through several impressionshave attested to its value and popularity.It has held a place of authority in the officesof thousands of printers, editors, publishers,and advertising men. Countless writers,laboring over the preparation of manuscriptfor the printer, have turned to it for help.With reason. For the Manual is a codi-fication of the typographical principleswhich have molded the making of books atthe University Press — books which take avery high rank as examples of the typo-grapher's craft.

Chicago potatore5802 Clltè ^all, Chicago3138 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINEof Graphic Arts as one of the Fifty bestbooks of its year in typographical form.To most of us the making of books is amystery. Proofreaders marks are as occultas Chinese ; and we stand amazed beforepeople who know how halftones are made.We wonder how it is that writers alwaysturn out just the right amount of copy tofili a given space. If we are young writers,the task of preparing correct manuscript —manuscript that the publisher will not im-mediately cast from him in rage — seemsmore formidable than writing the greatAmerican novel, or working out a greatcontribution to whatever field it is thatoccupies us. Correctness — what a bugbear !One remembers the manuals of rules onehas struggled with — rules so complicatedwith exceptions and alternatives that theyleave one more puzzled than before. Notso, however, with A Manual of Style. It isa model of clearness and definiteness. Alternatives are left out ; questions are de-cided; for a guide that leaves many loop-holes is not a guide at ali. In condensed form it tells ali one needs to know aboutthe preparation of manuscript. It is a sim-ple, practical key to the whole mystery oftypographical form.Its rules for composition cover capitaliza-tion, use of italics, quotation, punctuation,making tables and footnotes, dividing words,and handling legends and captions.The hints to authors, editors, and read-ers should be of greatest help in preparingcopy of any sort. They deal with copy-rights, proofreading, indexing, and estimat-ing the amount of space a given manuscriptwill occupy in type. A section on illustra-tions gives information about halftones,zinc etchings, lithography, gelatine platesand photogravure. Hints to copyreaders,proofreaders, and copyholders, of less interest to the general public, are of great valueto the craftsmen for whom they are in-tended.Perhaps the most interesting feature ofthe book to the layman is the section ontechnical terms and symbols. There is analphabetical glossary of words peculiar tothe craft, and the definitions are, in fact,terse descriptions of technical processes in-volved in book making. The definitions ofsuch words and phrases as ''Ben DayProcess," "Linotype," "Monotype," "WrongFont" are admirably adapted to initiate oneinto the hidden realm of the manufacturerof printed matter.About 130 pages are devoted to speci-mens of type, borders, ornaments, printersflowers, and special characters. Each kindor family of type is accompanied by a shorthistory and a note as to the kinds of workfor which it is best suited, and the numberof characters to the square inch in each sizeof type. Among the specimens is the workof Frederic W. Goudy, the greatest contem-porary designer who has created an entire"family" of type faces.Those who are preparing any sort ofmaterial to be printed will find the newedition of A Manual of Style an almostindispensable arbiter on the vexed questionsof typographical form.
