Under the direction of Arthur Cody, as general chairman, with the assistance of Cari Defebaughand an enthusiastic and efficient corps ofworkers every event connected with theannual get-together of the alumni was runoff most successfully.Association Banquets andReunionsThe series of alumni reunion dinners ofthe individuai associations was inauguratedby the School of Commerce and Administra-tion with Mr. Sewell L. Avery, presidentof the U. S. Gypsum Company and trusteeof the University, as guest speaker. TheSchool of Social Service Administrationcelebrated its tenth birthday at a largelyattended dinner of outstanding social workers representing the present school and itspredecessor, the Chicago School of Civicsand Philanthropy. Rush Medicai Collegeheld one of its typical enthusiastic overflowreunions, with two hundred more doctorsin attendance than had sent in reservationslips — and stili with food enough for ali,and a program that held the crowd until late in the evening. The Law SchoolAssociation made a feature of "the NewAdministration" at its annual meeting,showing special honor to Harry A. Bigelow,rounding out his first year as dean of theLaw School, and Robert M. Hutchins, com-pleting his first year in the presìdency of theUniversity.The annual "C" dinner was held inHutchinson Commons on Thursday, June5, with the Old Man as presiding officer,and with a large attendance of new and oldtime heroes of the gridiron, the diamondand the track. The Women's Athletic Association held its annual reunion dinner on thesame evening in Ida Noyes Hall, and re-ported a large attendance and a delightfulprogram.On Friday evening the annual dinner ofthe University aides was held in Ida NoyesHall under the direction of a committeeheaded by Savilla Millis Simons andFrances Lawton Frentz.Saturday, June 7, was Alumni Day, witha program lasting throughout the afternoonand evening — "the whole show within astone's throw" as the chairman so sloganlyremarked.453454 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINEAlumnae BreakfastThe annual breakfast of ChicagoAlumnae, held in Ida Noyes Hall, was adelightfully informai gathering featuring"Ali arrangements are compieteti,"Bill to Art. saysthe reunion of the fìve year classes. Mrs.Edith Foster Flint was the principalspeaker and her clever comments on thedevelopments of the past year on thecampus were much appreciated.The older fìve year classes were repre-sented by speakers. Miss Elizabeth Faulk-ner was the representative of the class of1885, and Miss Susan Lewis of the class of1895. The class of 1900 had no speaker,choosing instead to present a memorial toMrs. Davida Harper Eaton, daughter ofPresident Harper, whose death occurred afew months ago. Miss Elizabeth Robertsonspoke for the class of 1905, and Mrs. JessieHeckman Hirschl for the class of 1910.Roll cali was held for the members of theclasses of 191 5, 1920 and 1925, each mem-ber present rising as her name was called.The class of 1930 was welcomed by thealumnae, and their response was voiced byMiss Manota Marohn.Guests of honor besides the speakers wereMrs. Harper, Mrs.Burton, Miss Dudley,Mrs. Goodspeed, MissPope and Miss Talbot.The AfternoonProgramPromptly a t o n eo'clock alumni fromhither and yon beganregistering in theCircle.

Howe, '27T!Professor BreastedProfessor Breasted Finds the FirstScientìstvWO stirring chap-ters in the story ofman's accumulation ofexperience and of hisprogress from savageryto civilization were re-vealed this month bythe Orientai Institute.The Institute issued,through the UniversityPress, two books thattrace back to ancientEgypt the epic effort of humanity to masterthe world in which it lives.The first of these ancient records to bepublished is the Edwin Smith SurgicalPapyrus, translated and edited by Professor James Henry Breasted, the famousOrientalist who is director of the Institute.The second is the initial volume of a seriesof twelve which will preserve the historicalrecords inscribed on the Tempie MedinetHabu, built about 1200 B. C. by RamsesIII, last of the great Pharaohs.In the Smith papyrus is the first recordof man's effort to establish the scientificattitude which is regarded as the corner-stone of the modem world. The MedinetHabu volume discloses Europe emergingfor the first time as a military and politicaiforce and threatening to overwhelm theancient civilization of Egypt, with an ableand vigorous Pharaoh temporarily check-ing the decline of his country and beatingback attacks from ali sides.Behind these publications is the success-fu! effort of Professor Breasted to establishan organization with resources adequate tothe task of salvaging the records of earlycivilization while the remnants were stiliavailable. Thirty-five years ago he beganthe fight with an expedition consisting of himself, his wife, a cheap camera and adonkey. The Medinet Habu publicationrepresents an expenditure of nearly a thirdof a million dollars, and its cost to scholarsand libraries will be but $20, barely cover-ing the cost of printing. The attitude of theChicago scholar is summed up in the obser-vation that "human experience is too pre-cious to waste."Though the Smith papyrus dates only to1700 B. C. there is evidence that leads Professor Breasted to say that the originai docu-ment was produced at least a thousandyears earlier, in the Pyramid Age that ex-tended from 3000 to 2500 B. C, and it ishis conjecture that perhaps the author wasthe earliest known physician, Imhotep, alsoa great architect, who lived in the 30thcentury B. C.Whoever the author, for the first timein man's history, there was a true scientist,observing and collecting a group of factsand making rational deductions from hisobservations. This early surgeon was farahead of his time, for he cast aside prevail-ing superstitions and belief in demons asthe cause of physical suffering, abandoningas cures incantations and magical recipesfor methods that in some cases are used to-day by surgeons.Although he had the physician's desireto help his patient, as a scientist he had aninterest in cases in which he knew himselfto be helpless, making his observations anddeductions from a purely scientific interest.Of 58 examinations which survive in thetreatise, which originally discussed the en-tire body from the head downward, he rec-ommends treatment in 42, leaving 16 with-out any recommendations, but recordingthem as interesting scientifically.This ancient surgeon not only was thefirst of whom there is any record to recog-nize conditions and processes as due to in-457458 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINEtelligible physical causes but he had literallyto create his own scientific terminology.After his treatise had existed for a thousandyears or so some of his language had be-come so obscure that a later practitioner,probably about 2500 B. C, added a glossaryexplaining dubious terms.The originai scientist in one case directsthat the treatment be to "moor the patient athis mooring stakes." The commentator ex-plains: "He means, put the patient on hisaccustomed diet and do not administer tohim any medicine.,,The Egyptian surgeon-author v adds theword "brain" to language for the first time.He obviously had recognized the meningealmembrane, for he refers to "rupture of thesack containing the brain." Though fromthe earliest times the seat of consciousnesshad been regarded by the Egyptians as beingboth in the heart and the bowels, thispioneering surgeon observed that injuries tothe brain affect other parts of the body,especially in his experience, the lower limbs.He notes the drag or shuffle of the foot,presumably partial paralysis, resulting froma cranial wound.Even more remarkable was his observa-tion that the effects of a brain in jury on thelower limbs shifts from side to side, accord-ing to which side of the brain had beeninjured. This recognition of the localiza-tion of function in the brain is an observa-tion which has been more fully developedby modem surgeons only within the presentgeneration.Another remarkable achievement of thesurgeon was his recognition of the heart asthe center of a system of distributing ves-sels, and he noted, for the first time in medicai history, the importance of observing theaction of the heart in determining the con-dition of the patient. Although the manu-script is mutilated in this particular section,Professor Breasted believes the surgeoncounted the strokes of the pulse.Though an intimate acquaintance with asystem of muscles, tendons, and ligamentsis indicated in the papyrus, it is not likelythat the distinguished practitioner hadclearly disengaged the three systems ofnerves, muscles, and blood vessels, despite the fact that he evidently practiced dissec-tion.The first known mention of adhesivetape, lint, bandages, splints, and surgicalstitching is made in the manuscript. Someof the more important forms of bandageswere made for the surgeon by the greatest ofancient experts, the Egyptian embalmers.The lint was made from vegetable tissue,and was used to apply external medicamentsor as an absorbent of blood. Bandages andswabs were made of linen.Three specialized forms of splints wereemployed by this early surgeon, óne a braceof wood covered with linen, and employedin cases of tetanus to hold the patient'smouth open so that he could take liquidfood; another of linen impregnated withglue and plaster, and a third, consisting ofstiff rolls of linen.When a compound-comminuted fractureof the skull made it necessary, the patientwas held upright by supports of sundriedbrick, presumably molded to fit his figureon each side under his arms.At the time the surgeon composed histreatise, there undoubtedly were numeroussurgical implements, but in his directions hementions only the "fire drill," used to cau-terize. A jaw of a skull of the FourthDynasty, 2900 to 2750 B. C, disclosing adrill hole to drain an abscessed tooth, indi-cates that specialized surgical instrumentsof metal, presumably bronze, already existed in the age that produced the treatise.The medicaments used by the surgeonwere simple. In many cases he recommendshot applications, f ollowed by honey-ointmenton lint. Application of fresh meat to injuries was another favorite treatment. Incases of infected wounds, this pioneer medicai man prescribes the earliest known external application of salicin, in the form ofa decoction of willow leaves, as an anti-septic. He also used astringent applications, solutions containing copper andsodium salts: An ammoniacal applicationwas used to allay inflammation.Because he was a surgeon, the author wasinterested only incidentally in medicines.That he and his school were successful isindicated by the fact that out of more thanUNIVERSITY NOTES 4-59a hundred mummies of this period that havebeen found with broken bones, only onecase shows an ununited fracture.The papyrus receives its name from itsoriginai possessor, Edwin Smith, an American w4io was one of the first students ofEgyptology. He bought the papyrus fromnatives in 1862, and it is now the propertyof the New York Historical Society. Inits present state, it is 15 feet, 3% inches inlength, but at least one column of writingat the beginning, which probably containedthe title and name of the author, has beendestroyed. The scribe who copied it stoppedsuddenly in the middle of a word in a caseconcerning the spinai column. Later hecopied on the back a hodge-podge of treatment^ for the complexion, and some laterscribe added a "rejuvenation" treatment,consisting of an ointment that would remove wrinkles caused by age.It is the surmise of Professor Breastedthat the papyrus was purchased from thescribe by some practitioner of ancientThebes, who used it as a reference book.There is also the possibility that as firstwritten the treatise was a set of lecturenotes used either by the great surgeon ininstruction, or taken down by a studentfrom the surgeon's lectures.The publication is in two volumes, onebeing a reproduction of the papyrus, andthe other a translation and criticai study.The scribe, unfamiliar with medicai terms,made numerous mistakes and omissions, andin two instances inserted corrections in themargin, indicating their proper position inthe text with a cross, the earliest knownasterisk in the history of books.In the Medinet Habu publication, whichreproduces the tempie inscriptions in greaterdetail and with more exactness than has everbeen accomplished before, there is little ac-tual narrative, but the reliefs furnish anenormous amount of historical and archaso-logical information. The first volume at-tempts merely to reproduce one series of theinscriptions, as the pian of ProfessorBreasted is to issue commentaries on thetempie inscriptions later. Because therecords are rapidly being destroyed, theOrientai Institute has had a permanent ex- pedition at Luxor for many years to enablethis reproduction.The reliefs, propaganda designed chieflyto augment the prestige of Ramses IIIamong both men and gods, disclose his warsand his prowess as a hunter. The firstnaval battle of which there is any recordis portrayed on the walls, and the firstknown use of grappling hooks, used as lateas the War of 18 12, is shown in this relief.Ramses was beset by foreign invasions,but during his lifetime he was successful inpreserving his kingdom and arresting thedecline of the decaying state. The first hintof the emergence of Europe is found in therecord of wars with the invaders from thenorth, who carne as armies and as nations inmigration, fleeing from the Greek barba-rians who were forcing the older peoplesout.The tempie reliefs show the invaders withremarkable fidelity and attention to detail,each race in its typical garb, armed with itsown set of weapons, and fighting in itsparticular fashion. The Egyptian artistportrayed the various enemy races withsomething of the technique of the modemcartoonist, emphasizing salient characteris-tics. The Chicago scholars raise the ques-tion also whether the artists did not have acertain grim sense of humor, for they de-light in showing the invaders in ludicrousand uncomfortable as well as inglorioussituations.These records of the dose of one im-portant phase of human history, the declineof Egypt and the rise of Europe, were ex-ecuted with remarkable artistic ability andpower. As originally executed, the tempiewalls blazed with color, for ali the reliefswere painted, the artist adding with hisbrush many details that the sculptor ignored,but only a few specimens of this color workare preserved. Two color plates in the bookshow a battle with the Libyans and Libyancaptives, the artists adding such realistic details as pools of blood and wild flowers thatgrew on the battlefield.The Medinet Habu tempie was selectedfor study by the Orientai Institute partlybecause of its relation to the emergence ofEurope and also because it was the last of460 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINEthe temples carried to completion on a largescale. It was sketchily studied by Cham-pollion, who was first to decipher the hiero-glyphics, but until the Institute began itswork no systematic reproduction of anyEgyptian records has ever been attempted.Professor Breasted devised a method forreproducing the inscriptions that preservesevery line cut on the walls. Photographsmade of the inscriptions are enlarged andtaken by an artist to the wall, where theyare redrawn4n ink. After a black and whitedrawing is obtained by bleaching out thephotograph, a blue print is made foruse ofthe skilled epigraphers in "proof-reading"in comparison with the inscription. Whenpublication is completed, the entire tempiecould be destroyed without loss to studentsof Egyptology.Old Words in New BottlesoProfessor Craigielatest report of VER 400,000quotations, culledfrom American publica-tions printed duringthe past three centuries,and indicating the remarkable growth of theAmerican language asdistinct from the Eng-lish, are now on file atthe University of Chicago, according to theProfessor Sir WilliamCraigie, who heads a staff which is compilingthe first historical dictionary of the American tongue.With a battery of graduate students sift-ing ali available American publications sincethe I7th century, including newspapers,periodicals, officiai records, scholarlytreatises and literary efforts of ali degreesof excellence, Professor Craigie reports thatthe project, now under way for four years,is progressing more rapidly than he hadhoped.The method has been to record sentencesin which occur new words and idioms asthey have crept into the language, and newusages of old expressions. The 400,000quotations, Professor Craigie reports, "ai- ready form a basis on which a dictionarycould be compiled which would present afair conspectus of the history of AmericanEnglish."How far it stili falls short of the idealis not so easy to estimate. One commenta-tor predicted that twenty-five years wouldbe required for gathering the quotations,and twenty-five more for digesting the material. Most persons, however, wouldrather see a usable dictionary compiledwithin the next few years than contentthemselves with the thought that the per-fect one would be produced long after theywere dead."Many of the expressions unearthed byDr. Craigie go farther back into Americanhistory than had been previously supposed.The expression "Americanism" has beentraced back to what is believed its earliestwritten use in the "Pennsylvania Gazette"of 1797. The term "backwoods" occursfirst in a letter written by Virginia frontiers-men asking for permission to form a militaryunit for protection against the Indians. Itwas found among the state papers of Virginia for 1746.Among the other American wordsselected by Professor Craigie from theletter "A," with the new dates of firstusage established by dictionary workers, arethe following:A, (As a mark for class- work). 1897Aboard, (as in all-aboard) . 1871Acclimation, 1832Accommodation, (for'ioan"). 181 1Affiliate, (unite politically). 1852After, (past a certain hour, as "ten aftersix"). 1774Air, (as in "to put on airs"). 1832Aisle, (passagewav in building or train).1873Ali of, (for "as mudi as"). 1856Angel-cake, 1897Anglophobia, 1793Ante, (in poker). 1853Anti-saloon, 1888Anxious seat, 1835Any, (for "at ali"). 181 7Appearing, (as in fine-appearing) . 1851Apple-jack, 1840Apt, (for "likely"). 1904UNIVERSITY NOTES 461Area-way, 1903Assembly-man, 1836Assignment, (for "task" or commis-sion"). 1897Assist, (in baseball). 1891Avenue (in U. S. cities). 1780Away (back, up, down, etc.) 1873In giving the list, Professor Craigie said,"Additional, and especially earlier, ex-amples of any of the items will be thank-fully received."The Oxford English Dictionary, whichtakes the English language back to theseventh century in the same way the Chicago American Dictionary will record theAmerican back to the seventeenth, contains10,000,000 quotations, with 414,825 wordsdescribed through the use of 228,000,000letters and figures. Professor Craigie, sinceknighted by King George, was editor-in-chief when the fifty-year task was com-pleted. As the Oxford Dictionary wascoming off the presses he arrived in Americato start the new project. His "Dictionaryof the Older Scottish Tongue" will bepublished shortly by the University of Chicago Press.According to Dr. Craigie, American in-ventiveness, coupled with strange and richconditions which faced pioneers on thefrontier, have brought forth, in three cen-turies of American cultural independence,changes of language comparable to theElizabethan period in England.A Gold Star for Dr. MacMillanCREDIT for orig-inating the atom-building theory, andthe theory that the universe rejuvenates itselfby the condensation ofradiation into atoms,both of which are nowexciting wide attentionamong British physi-cists, belongs to a groupProfessor '. °. .MacMillan of Chicago scientistswho first discussed them twenty years ago,according to Dr. Robert A.

MacMillan,Professor of Mathematical Astronomy atthe Midway as the pioneer in these speculative theories which are now partiallyproved."In previous articles I have never soughtto assign the origin or history of the speculative ideas about atom building in cosmicprocesses — a very ticklish thing to do, sinceduring the past twenty years this questionhas aroused general interest," writes President Millikan."In the year 1904, when I was engagedin the study of certain rare ores for theiruranium content by the action of radio-activity, Professor F. R. Moulton of theUniversity of Chicago carne to me with thestatement that even if the sun were origi-nally of pure uranium it could not havegiven up as much energy as he would regardas necessary for a minimum of the life of thesun, and that, therefore, it was necessaryto postulate a store of cosmic energy from apreviously unknown source for the stellarenergies."In 1905 Einstein discovered the inter-changeability of mass and energy as a con-sequence of the special theory of relativity.Certainly for something less than ten yearsa new source of energy for the continuedexistence of the life of celestial bodies wasthe subject of general table conversation atthe University of Chicago."As soon as the Mosleyian relations andthe existence of isotopes were discovered,atom building within the stars, accompaniedby a change of the superfluous mass intoradiation, was considered a source of stellarenergy. Professor Harkins of Chicago ex-plained in detail this loss of mass, or pack-ing effect, in the atom building process."That this phenomenon is not sufficientto explain the energy of the universe wasshown later on. In 1917 Eddington men-tioned the idea of the complete annihila-462 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINEtion of matter by collision and the completesuperposition of the positive and negativeelectrical fields, and ascribed the idea toJeans."In our conversations at Chicago W. D.MacMillan constantly held out for theview that a stili f urther step f orward shouldbe taken and the idea of the 'running downof the universe* should be given up by theassumption that atom building went on inspace by the condensation of radiation intoatoms."These three ideas, first, atom buildingfrom hydrogen; second, the radiating awayof mass; and third, the condensation ofradiant energy into atoms, are the threehypotheses for which we have obtainedpartial experimental proof."Heretofore I have not tried to assignpriority to anyone with respect to speculative ideas, since we have considered it ourproblem to show how far our experimentalresults were of significance to these nowfamiliar ideas. We made a small step for-ward ih giving a quantitative proof for thecosmic origin of radiation in 1925, in thatthe longest wavevlength observed, according to our method of calculation, agreedwith the Einstein equation correspondingto the building of helium out of hydrogen ;and in 1927 we found clear and authenticproof that this and other atom buildingprocesses are actually the source of cosmicradiation. We proved f urther, contrary toali previous assumptions, aside, perhaps,from the assumption of MacMillan, thatthe atom building process does not occur instars, but in the depths of interstellar space."If there is anyorfe besides Einstein whowas a pioneer in the development of thetheoretical ideas for which we have foundexperimental proof it is W. D. MacMillan.Anyone who since 1918 may have sought towrite the history of the atom building processes should have given him a deservedrecognition."Professor MacMillan took his master'sdegree at Chicago in 1906 and his doctoratein 1908, and has been a member of thefaculty continuously since becoming anassociate in Mathematics and Astronomyin 1907. Home to Our MoundsSEEKING the long-buried remains oflife in Illinois as far back as 2,000 yearsago, so that they may reconstruct the storyof the ancient mound-building Indians intime for the Chicago Century of Progess inI933> a Partv of fifteen men and womenarchasologists left the University of Chicago June 25th to spend the summer exca-vating the mounds around Lewiston.Their first objective is the 5700-acreestate of Joy Morton, near the juncture ofthe Illinois and Spoon rivers, where no lessthan nine mounds, believed to containburials and significant pots and implements,have been discovered.Cooperating with the University in theproject are the Smithsonian Institution ofWashington; the Laboratory of Anthro-pology of Santa Fé ; Mr. Rufus Dawes, forthe Fair ; and Mr. Morton, who has thrownthe mounds open for the first scientific ex-ploration, and has set aside a lodge as head-quarters for the party.Five cars and a truck left the Universityat 7 :30 A. M. for Lewiston. ProfessorFay-Cooper Cole, Chairman of Anthro-pology at the University, heads the expedi-tion in its effort to make the past live againat the Fair. He is assisted by Dr. WiltonM. Krogman of the University and byThorne Deuel, professor at Syracuse University.Distinguished anthropologists who willparticipate in the work from time to timeduring the1 summer are Dr. A. V. Kidder,of the Carnegie Institution ; Matthew Ster-ling, chief of the Bureau of AmericanEthnology, Smithsonian Institution; NeilJudd, chief of the division of Archaeology,National Museum; and Harry Shetrone,director of the Ohio State Museum, andauthority on mounds.For the University of Chicago the ex-pedition will constitute the fifth year'swork of a ten year project to describeminutely the prehistory of Illinois from itsearliest occupancy. The previous fouryears have been spent largely in the north-west part of the state, and around Jolietand in the vicinity of Quincy. Over 900mounds have been mapped, 665 in JoUNIVERSITY NOTES 4«3Daviess' county alone, and over 100 havebeen analyzed inch by inch by trowel andnail-file methods. The greatest of themounds so far found, outside the Cahokiarnound, which rivals the Egyptian pyramidsin size, was an 11 00 ft. affair near Galena.The first large-scale effort to tie togetherali the evidence based on the surveys, andon hundreds of Indian skeletons and over10,000 artifacts now in possession of theUniversity, was made before the party leftby Dr. Wilton M. Krogman, who has di-rected the work of the past three years, inaddressing the group.According to Dr. Krogman's analysisthree great Indian cultures prevailed in Illinois over a period of more than 1500 years,the basic civilization being similar to thatwhich obtained in the whole upper Mississippi Valley. Influences from other regionshe traces into Illinois, particularly theAlgonkian culture of New York, which isvery old, anteceding the Iroquoisan in-vasion, and variants of the effigy-buildingcomplex of the Aztalan culture of Wisconsin, which extended along the Mississippi, and the "Hopewell" and "Fort Ancient" cultures of Ohio."There is only a hazy line between thehistoric and the prehistoric, yet the momentwe pass from the known Indians we entera field filled with legend and fancy," saidProfessor Cole. "In most counties ofIllinois are Indian mounds, earthworks andcampsites. We are told that the 'mound-builders' are a lost race which inhabitedthis country before the Indians ; that theywere immigrants from the old world; oneof the Lost Tribes of Israel; people fromthe lost Atlantis. But the archasologist isconcerned only with facts, and we knowconclusively that the mound-builders areIndians, some of whom lived very recently,others as long ago as 2,000 years."In some states, like Ohio, the story isvery complete, but for most of the Mississippi Valley, we have as yet only glimpsesof man's long struggle toward civilization.We have evidences of trade and of invasionsand migrations, and soon we hope to havethe whole story."Our work is progressing much faster Professor Comptonthan we had hoped. One of the great exhibits of the 1933 Fair is to be the story ofman's development on the American conti-nent. It is our desire and that of the direc-tors of the Fair to have the prehistory of ourstate fully shown."Adumbrating the AtomTHE first descrip-tion of the struc-ture of the atom wasgiven to members ofthe American PhysicalSociety, meeting atCornell University,June 2ist, by ProfessorArthur H. Compton ofthe department ofphysics. The Chicagophysicist has just com-pleted experiments which give the first out-line of atomic structure ever obtained.Professor Compton has not been ableactually to see the atom, and no one proba-bly ever will, but he has managed to getas dose a look as is likely to be had. Whathe does get is the diffraction of an X-raybeam by the atom, and measurement ofthis diffraction gives a clear indication ofthe structure of the atom.The atom is the smallest unit of theelements. Ali matter in the universe canbe reduced to elements, 92 in number, con-stituting fundamental substances, of whichhydrogen is the most common. The atomconsists of a nucleus of positive electricitycalled the proton, surrounded by what ap-pears to be a diffused atmosphere ofnegative electricity, called electrons.Professor Compton so far has found whatthe structure of the helium atom is like,showing its two electrons consist of par-ticles of electricity, instead of being diffusedelectricity. These two electrons of thehelium atom are always changing positìonand the effect of diffusion is produced bytheir rapid motion.The Chicago physicist has also obtainedprovisionai data on argon, one of the rarerelements, which confìrms his results in464 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINEhelium. It is now only a matter of monthsuntil he applies his method to the atom ofmany other gases.Professor Compton's study confirms atheory of the structure of the atom advancedby Werner Heisenberg, German physicist,in 1926. The Heisenberg, theory is theonly one of a dozen or more theories, thefirst of which was advanced by Lord Kelvinin 1890, that fits the facts obtained by Professor Compton.Professor Compton's experimentalmethod was to send a beam of X-raysthrough a chamber of helium which wasunder high pressure. The molecules, thetiniest particles of the gas, deflected the X-ray beam, and the varying intensity of thebeam in different directions was measured.This measurement was done in an ioniza-tion chamber into which the deflected X-rays were sent.By obtaining the direction in which mostof the scattering of the X-rays occurs, Professor Compton could measure the size ofthe Tnolecules of the gas. By mathematicalmeans he was then able to determine thedistribution of the electrons in the moleculeand in the atom.The deflection of the X-rays by the gasis similar in principle to the halo produced around the moon because of the diffractionof the moonlight by droplets of water in theair. The size of the halo about the moongives a means of estimating the size of thewater drops which cause it, for a shrinkinghalo means a growing drop. So, in asimilar manner, it was possible to find thesize of the molecules and atoms in the gas,simply by getting their diffraction haloes.The work which has definitely ended thesearch for the main outline of the structurewas begun by Professor Compton in 1914and has been in progress intermittently sincethat time. The experiment led him intocollateral problems, and the solution of oneof these, the change in wave lengths of X-rays, won him the Nobel prize in 1927.To make the delicate measurements of theintensity of the scattered X-rays, ProfessorCompton and his brother Karl, now president of the Massachusetts Institute ofTechnology, devised a new and improvedform of the electrometer.Having obtained his experimental data,Professor Compton had to work out a newformula for what is known to mathema-ticians as the Fourier series, in order tocalculate the distribution of the electrons.The calculation itself was a tedious processrequiring several months.Smap SllOtSNEWS OF THEQUADRANGLESRes Adjudica^^^^^_ /^HANGES in the^^ policy of the University Law School, de-signed first to weed outunlikely candidates forK I admission, and to £\\cunusual students un-^^^^ u s u a 1 opportunities ;^k then to bring the pro-Vi^ fessional curriculuminto closer harmonyDean Bigelow ... ,with modem economieconditions, and to enlist the aid of socialscientists in legai research, are revealed byDean Harry Bigelow.Several steps in the initiation of the newpolicies are disclosed by Dean Bigelow.They are: the institution of a survey ofthe School's professional training, lookingtoward an up-to-date reorganization of thecourses; adoption of a rule requiring pros-pective students to pass a legai aptitudetest; appointment of four experts in non-legal fields to the law staff and of two newlaw teachers to the faculty of the School;and the establishment of seven seminar-research courses in problems of law forsmall groups of able students.The latter two innovations are in accordwith President Hutchins' pian of encourag-ing cooperation between the various University departments in the solution of majorproblems.Dr. Franz Alexander, noted Germanpsychiatrist has been appointed Visiting Professor for the coming year, it is announced.He will become one of the fìve non-legalexperts in the Law School, and will alsoteach in other divisions of the University.Formerly professor of psychiatry at the University of Budapest, Dr. Alexander is nowLecturer at the Berlin Psycho-AnalyticInstitute and adviser to the courts of Berlinin criminal cases. In Chicago he is to give a seminar for alimited number of third-year Law studentswhich is described as "Psycho-AnalyticAspects of Criminology — the application ofpsychoanalytic theories, especially of theneurotic character type, to criminal be-havior." The course will be open to medicai as well as law students."The Law School has in mind as itsfuture policy two distinctly different, thoughcomplementary, lines of development,"Dean Bigelow says. "The first of these isto keep the School as it has always been,in the very front rank of professional lawschools. This means first an examinationof the whole curriculum, to ascertain whatchanges will be required in the presentgrouping of legai subject matter to meetmodem business and economie forces andfaets."The accepted alignment of subjects inmost schools is over 50 years old and goesback largely to the organization of theHarvard law curriculum. There can beho doubt that that organization in someways is no longer adapted to present needs."Another problem is the method of in-struction. This should vary according tothe subject matter being dealt with. Thesize of the classes ought to be so small thateach student may have a chance at personalcontact with the instructor. Small seminarand research groups should be provided insufficient numbers to take care of thosedesiring to specialize in the various fields.Advancement of students should be flexible.A good man should be allowed to go aheadmore rapidly. A poor man should be madeto go more slowly."The building up of an adequate facultyis a problem of equal importance. No timeshould be spared in searching for the bestpossible instructors. Once they are foundno expense should be spared in retainingtheir services."The second line of development will be465466 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINEin the graduate work of the School, whichserves as a link between the training oflegai practitioners and the other funda-mental purpose of the School, that is, itsduty and privilege to act as a research organization in matters of legai, social, economie and politicai importance."The whole field of the social sciencesnow occupies a position roughly analagousto the field of the physical sciences one ortwo hundred years ago. We have begun torealize that it is only by careful and detailedstudy of social phenomena that the signifi-cance and interrelation of these phenomenacan be comprehended. Obviously the legaiaspect of the activities of the world in whichwe live is of far-reaching importance. TheLaw School plans to take a prominent partin the pursuance of such investigations.Already a number of them have been set onfoot, and others are planned for the comingyear. Five faculty members of other de-partments are engaged on schemes of in-vestigation, cooperating with members ofthe Law faculty."In addition to Dr. Alexander's seminar,an informai course in the psychology ofevidence will be offered in the autumnjointly by Professor Edward Hinton andby Dr. Mortimer Adler, now of ColumbiaUniversity, whose appointment as AssociateProfessor of Philosophy at the Universityis also announced. Discussion of the funda-mental logicai conceptions in argument andproof, and the psychological aspeets of spe-cific rules, will be the subject.Other seminars to be given in addition tothe regular courses will be in radio law,criminal law, trusts, corporate finance, tax-ation and comparative law. Besides Dr.Alexander and Dr. Adler, representativesof other departments who will give part oftheir time to the Law School are Dr.Quincy Wright, Politicai Science; Dr.Simeon Leland, Economics; and WillardJ. Graham, Accounting.Additions to the regular faculty of theLaw School are Charles O. Gregory, graduate of Yale, who will teach torts and surety-ships; and Wilbur G. Katz, graduate ofHarvard, who will teach the law involvedin business administration, under a new approach to the problem as a whole. Appointment of Donald Slesinger, formerassociate of President Hutchins at Yale, tobecome Professor of Law and head of theUniversity 's joint social investigations asExecutive Secretary of the Locai Community Research Committee, was announced this spring.New requirements for admission to theLaw School, intended to eliminate candi-dates who are unlikely to succeed in theSchool and the profession, are given byDean Bigelow as additional to thè standingrequirement of 27 undergraduate majors.They are: 1. Taking of a legai aptitudeand an intelligence test; 2. Submission ofan application form giving information of anature not disclosed by the officiai collegerecord ; 3 . Personal interview with an of-ficer of the Law School."A system similar to this has been usedfor several years at Columbia and Yale,and has proved valuable in helping determine an applicante likelihood of success asa lawyer," Dean Bigelow said "Gradesachieved in the tests have proved to have ahigh correlation with grades attained in theLaw School, which in turn have a high cor-relation with success in practice. The testsare not infallible, however, and will beused merely to supplement the presentcriteria."The new requirements will become éffec-tive this autumn, but will not apply toUniversity of Chicago students who havecompleted 27 undergraduate majors priorto October."The registration in the Law School forthe current year has been very nearly 600,"Dean Bigelow continues, "and the capacityof the present building is already overtaxedin some regards and will be in others withina few years. During the work of the firstyear class it becomes clear that a certainnumber of men and women made a mistakein entering the School, and they are accord-ingly dropped. If it were possible to eliminate even a part of that group it would bedesirable from every point of view."In addition to the seminar courses, weare planning to extend stili further thepolicy of working in small groups, anoNEWS OF THE QUADRANGLES 467encouraging any student who shows unusualabilities to progress as rapidly in his professional training as his capacity justifies."Dean Bigelow announces that the fundavailable for scholarships in the School hasbeen increased fifty percent.Establishment of the first permanentscholarship fund in the Law School wasannounced in June by the Universitytrustees, who acknowledged a gift of$36,000 for that purpose made by Mrs.Anna L. Raymond of Chicago. The gift isMrs. Raymond's third benefaction to theUniversity and her second to the LawSchool within a year.Terms of the newest gift provide thatthe scholarships shall be awarded forstrength of character and for personal qual-fties as well as for unusual ability in law.Income from the fund, which is to be amemorial to James Nelson Raymond, latehusband of the donor, will be used to createthree scholarships a year of $600 each."Her interest in the exceptional wasshown last year in her establishment of the$30,000 James N. Raymond Fund for thelaw library, under which we secure unusualpublications for which no regular funds areavailable. The latest gift starts a veryfine tradition for such funds at Chicago,similar to the foundations in the oldereastern Law Schools."Mrs. Raymond's first gift to the University was her subscription of $100,831.67 in1925 to establish a chair in the medicaischool.Open for BusinessTWO new science buildings, each be-lieved to be the finest of its kind in theUnited States, were thrown open at theUniversity, June I5th for the first time toaccommodate Summer Quarter classes. Therecently completed buildings are the Bernard A. Ecikfiart Hall of Mathematics,Mathematical Astronomy and Physics andthe new Botanical Research Laboratory.Seventeen classes in mathematics andastronomy moved into the $710,000 Eck hart building, the erection of which wasmade possible by gifts of Bernard A. Eckhart, Chicago miller. Adjoining the olderRyerson Physical Laboratory on the east,the new structure rises to four floors alongUniversity Avenue near 58th St., on theMain Quadr angle.Eckhart Hall, the work of Charles Z.Klauder, Philadelphia architect, is con-sidered one of the handsomest of the Uni-versity's Gothic buildings. Basement andfirst floor are devoted to 38 research roomsfor Physics department, part of which willbe used for the projects of Professors ArthurH. Compton and Arthur J. Dempster andtheir graduate students. Professor Michel-son will retain his laboratory in Ryerson,the scene of most of his achievements.Upper floors will be used by mathemati-cians and astronomers, and departmentsfor the first time will have adequatefacilities. In addition to nine classroomsthere are thirty-nine offices for the faculty,fellows and graduate students of those departments. Other features of Eckhart Hallare an assembly room seating 240 and alibrary with facilities for 88 readers and50,000 volumes.Three laboratory classes in plant physiol-ogy began study in the new $130,000 Botanical Laboratory on Ingleside Av. be-tween 57th and 56th Sts. Members of theBotany Department expressed the beliefthat their new unit is unequalled in itsfacilities in the United States.There are no classrooms or library facilities in the laboratory, which adjoins the$140,000 group of greenhouses finished lastyear. It is to be devotèd to research inplant physiology and plant pathology.Features of the new building are itsbiochemical and biophysical laboratories,where studies such as those on the effect ofX-rays on plants will be prosecuted; Constant temperature rooms, where cold as lowas 40 degrees below zero can be maintained ;inoculation quarters, in which the entireroom may be given a shower or steam bath,so that plant disease germs may be trans-ferred without contamination ; animaiquarters for the study of the plant germs468 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINEthey carry; rooms which reproduce the con-ditions under which fruits and vegetablesare moved.In a study of ali University departmentsin the country made four years ago by theAmerican Association of College and University Professors the University of Chi-cago's Departments of Physics, Mathematics and Botany were declared theleaders. Date for the dedication servicesfor Eckhart Hall has not yet been de-termined. ». There will be no dedication ofthe Botanical Laboratory.Memorial to "Bobs"TDoctor Schlutz O keep the wellchild well by research in preventivepediatrics and to curethe sick child by themost modem medicaitreatment, were declared to be the dualaims of the new milliondollar Bobs RobertsMemorial Hospital forChildren. In a formaidedication ceremony on June gth the firstadditional unit to the University Clinics,the Roberts structure was described as "thefinest children's hospital in the UnitedStates."President Robert Maynard Hutchins ac-cepted the hospital for the University,following the presentation by L. HarryFreeman, who spoke for Colonel and Mrs.John Roberts, the donors. Dr. FredericSchlutz, recently of the University ofMinnesota, who has been appointed Chairman of the Department of Pediatrics andDirector of the Hospital, delivered theaddress on "The Significance of the Children's Hospital in Present Day Pediatrics."Dr. Franklin C. McLean, Director ofthe University Clinics, described the intimate relationship the Roberts Hospital willhave with the rest of the University Clinics.Rev. Charles W. Gilkey, Dean of the Uni versity Chapel, delivered the prayer andbenediction.The Roberts Hospital, which was in-formally opened for patients May ist, ad-joins the Albert Merritt Billings hospitalon the west and rises at three and six floorlevels along the Midway at Drexel Ave.It contains 80 beds for children andan extensive series of laboratories andclassrooms. Cost of the structure was$800,000, part of the $1,000,000 fund givenby Colonel and Mrs. Roberts for the erec-tion and upkeep of a memorial to their son,"Bobs," who died at the age of fìve in 1917."On behalf of the University of Chicagoit gives me the greatest pleasure to acceptfrom Col. and Mrs Roberts this splendidhospital, and to acknowledge to them at thistime the debt to them of the University, ofthe city and the city's children," said President Hutchins. "With every sentiment ofgratitude and affection, with every confi-dence in the great work that is to be donehere, we dedicate this building to the reliefof suffering children now and through thecoming generations."Tracing the development of children'shospitals since the time of that founded bySt. Vincent de Paul in the sixteenth century,Dr. Schlutz said that the advances made inthe prevention and control of children'sdiseases during the past twenty years hadbeen the greatest the medicai world has seen."It is not an idle statement, for example,to predict that in the not distant futuresuch a malignant and fatai disease tochildhood as diphtheria could be prac-tically unknown in our time, if completeimmunization were practiced against it."The new hospital is regarded as one ofthe most successful buildings on the University quadrangles. Not only is it designedaccording to the latest practice in hospitals,but every effort has been made to providean attractive appearance for the smallpatients.The beautiful memorial rotunda, whichserves as a reception hall, is one of theunique features of the hospital. It isfinished in brown marble, with murai panelsrepresenting the "Little Boy Blue" poems,leading to a portrait of Bobs Roberts. TheNEWS OF THE QUADRANGLES 469murals are the work of Aldo Lazzarini,New York artist. A playroom decoratedwith Mother Goose illustrations and a roofsolarium are other attractive features ofthe hospital.Hutchins to the GraduatesTHE colossal number of students nowin the universities and colleges ofAmerica has resulted in "a remorseless uni-formity of treatment," and an educationalsystem which means loss of time and lossof initiative for the student, PresidentHutchins told the graduates at the OneHundred Sixtieth Convocation June ioth.Because large numbers of students arecrowding into the educational institutionsof the country, standardized methods havebeen developed in ali phases of education,the president said. Uniform rules as tohow much teaching the faculty must do;the adoption of increasing requirements ofcollege work for admission to the professional schools, and a failure to differentiatethe curriculum for graduate students whoseek to become teachers and those who in-tend to be research workers, were cited byPresident Hutchins as flaws of the educational method."Professional work may well be started,presumably, at the end of a good generaleducation. But we have assumed first thatali of college work was general educationand second that the longer a man stayed incollege the better his education was,"President Hutchins said. "Between ourdesire for a simple test of qualifications forentrance and our desire for prestige, wehave committed ourselves in some institutions to a system of pre-professional requirements which diminishes the studente oppor-tunities without necessarily producingcounter-balancing benefits to him, to thecommunity, or to us."The prosperity of the country, the sup-posed social and commercial advantages ofcollege life, and the requirements of theprofessions and the professional schools havebrought us tremendous quantities of college students. They ali enter in the same wayand after accumulating the same numberof credits with the same minimum scholasticaverage are sent forth as educated people.It is difHcult to believe that they ali havethe same ability or the same preparation orthe same degree of interest in educatingthemselves. And by insisting, for reasonsof convenience, that they ali be reduced tothe same mathematical formula, we havedoubtless done something to defeat whatinterest and ability they had."Our whole system is set up for the average student, with the result that in any wellorganized college there probably is not asingle regulation governing the curriculumthat a really excellent student should notbreak. The first duty of a college in a university is to organize itself so that a studentwho wishes to become a scholar will nothave insuperable obstacles put in his path.If we had time to think about education in-stead of being forced to provide somethingthat would look like it for the multitudeswho suddenly demanded it, we should direct our attention first to the achievementsof individuata."What the universities must do is to createnew standards and measurements of achieve-ment instead of the bookkeeping methodsof the present, that put emphasis on timespent and courses passed, PresidentHutchins told the graduates."In the college and university level ifwe develop first the criteria of entrance toand completion of general higher education; if we then develop the criteria of entrance to and completion of non-professionaland professional specialized education, andif we at each stage employ general examina-tions with such other devices as may benecessary to be taken by the student whenin his opinion he is ready for them, weeliminate for any given individuai the lossof time and the loss of initiative which atpresent curse our educational system."If then an individuai remains at anylevel longer than the average student it willbe because he needs to remain there; if hegoes on earlier it will be because he isqualified to go on.47o THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINE"The successful installation of such ascheme, or of a better one, designed to ac-complish the same objective, will requirelong and painstaking thought. But thoughtis what education today requires, and if weare in education it is our business to put itforth. If we take the large lecture courseas a base and select from it only those whoare particularly interested and qualifiedfor more individuai instruction, withoutassuming the necessity of small classes andquiz seetion in ali courses for ali students,we can accomplish everything I have inmind without addition to our faculties."In some such ways as these we may makethe college a place for the exploration of therealms of knowledge ~and the university aplace for the beginning of a life of learningand inquiry. Then perhaps even the learnedprofessions may become learned. And wemay produce a generation more educatedthan our own and individuals better educated than ourselves."Degrees were conferred on 843 candi-dates, the higher degrees being given in aceremony held at 11 o'clock to 356 candi-dates, and 487 college degrees beingawarded in the afternoon at 3 o'clock.Eighty-eight of those receiving degreestook work in the University College, arecord total for the downtown division.The ages of those who studied in the University College ranged from 22 to 56 years,the average being 33 years.Nine of the 88 received Phi Beta Kappa,and three received departmental honors.Miss Jean Siddall of Evanston, who startedher studies in 1919 at the downtown division, received her degree at the June Con-vocation and won election to Phi BetaKappa for her high scholarship.w W WRookies Among the AlumniRECRUITING of June graduates by^ large industriai organizations has re-sulted this year in the immediate placementof 125 University of Chicago men in posi-tions. This figure was given by the Uni-versity's Board of Vocational Guidance andPlacement, which arranged interviews be- tween representatives of 40 concerns withthe new "bachelors.""Despite the business depression the num-ber of business houses seeking June graduates for their training schools continues toincrease," says John Kennan, placementcounselor. "This year the company representatives were more care fui in their selec-tions, and their individuai quotas were 20%smaller, but because of the increasing number of firms seeking college graduates thenumber of men placed in this way was 25greater than last year."Another 100 men were placed by theBoard without the aid of recruiting, according to Kennan. Part-time positionssecured for men and women in residenceduring the academic year totalled 2,500.In its most important function, the plac-ing of teachers, the Board has receivednotices of vacancies during the year rangingfrom kindergarten positions to college presi-dencies to the number of 2,200 and hasplaced a great number of University graduates and alumni in teaching positions, according to Robert Woellner, ExecutiveSecretary of the Board. Several requestswere received asking for recommendationsto fili college presidencies. The Board is incontact with 700 colleges and 800 schoolsystems, it has 10,000 names of Universitystudents, past and present, who have regis-tered for teaching positions, and it sendsout 8,000 sets of qualifications a year.Part-time jobs secured for students inschool range from reading to the blind toacting as pall-bearers, according to Mr.Woellner.wwwHomecoming Day — November FirstUNDER the sponsorship of the Undergraduate Council, with the coopera-tion of the Alumni Council, Novemberfirst will be celebrated as Homecoming Day.With the Princeton Tigers on Stagg Field,a homecoming dinner in Hutchinson Com-mons, a homecoming play in Mandel, anddancing in the Reynolds Club, the Quad-rangles should prove a magnet to ali alumni.NEWS OF THE QUADRANGLES 471Honored for Excellence in TeachingFIVE members ofceive increases inof their excellence in the teaching of undergraduates, themoney coming from a fundestablished by an anonymousalumnus for that purpose.The fìve are J.

WORKS,president of the Connecticut AgriculturalCollege, has resignedhis post to accept a pro-fessorship in the Schoolof Education. He re-linquished the deanshipo f the University'sGraduate LibrarySchool last year to an-swer the Connecticut cali but the easternposition was not sufficiently alluring toprevent his answering the Chicago recali.Under the terms of a grant made lastautumn by the General Education Boardthe University will begin a series of investigations in the field of undergraduate education. Dr Works will direct these studiesand will probably have a good deal to dowith the proposed reorganization of thecolleges here.Dr. Bengt Hamilton of Johns Hopkinshas been made Professor of Pediatrics, in thenewly established department of the Clinicsof which Dr. Nathaniel Allison, formerlyof Harvard is the Chairman; and Dr. W.W. Swanson, now of Minnesota, has beenmade Associate Professor in that department. Replacing Dr. I. S. Falk, who leftthe University in December to become Associate Director of the Committee on theNEWS OF THE QUADRANGLES 473Cost of Medicai Care, N. Paul Hudsonhas been appointed Professor in the Department of Hygiene and Bacteriology.Visiting professors during the coming yearwill include Albert P. Brogan, Universityof Texas, in Philosophy; Maurice Halb-wachs, University of Strasbourg, in Soci-ology; Vittorio Macchioro, University ofNaples, New Testament; and C. V. Taylor, Stanford, Zoology. Sixty teachingappointments are recorded in the July issueof the University record.Fifty-four faculty promotions are an-nounced in the same issue, of which elevenare full professorships, of which, in turn,three are given to women. Full professorships go to Lydia J. Roberts, who succeedsKatherine Blunt, now President of theConnecticut Woman's College, as Chairmanof the Department of Home Economics;Edith Rickert, English; Gertrude Dudley,Physical Culture; Dr. Percival Bailey,Surgery; Garfield V. Cox, Commerce andAdministration; Lester R. Dragstedt, Surgery; Samuel N. Harper, son of the firstPresident, Russian Languages and Litera-ture; Morris S. Karasch, Chemistry; JamesL. Palmer, Commerce and Administration ;H. B. Van Dyke, Physiological Chemistry;and T. O. Yntema, Commerce and Administration.David Harrison Stevens, Associate Deanof the Faculties, deeply liked here both asProfessor of English and as Assistant tothe President, has resigned to take an im-portant administrative post with the General Education Board. Lionel Edie, Professor of Finance in the School of Commerce and Administration, has accepted afinancial position outside the University.And Dr. Theodore G. Soares, No. 18 student registered in the University in 1892,who is remembered for his long service asUniversity chaplain, has resigned as Professor of Religious Education and Head ofthe Department of Practical Theology inthe Divinity School to become Professor ofEthics at the California Institute of Technology and pastor of the Pasadena UnionLiberal Church. Though no officiai wordhas yet been issued at Chicago, newspaperstories from Seattle announce the appoint- ment of Professor Harold Shepherd of theUniversity Law School as Dean of Law atthe University of Washington.During July death took Dr. RalphWaldo Webster, who has been the RushMedicai authority on toxicology and medicai jurisprudence for many years ; and MissKatherine Martin, assistant professor ofkindergarten-primary education, who wasassociated with the University since 1906.Dr. Webster became a "C" man in baseballin the middle nineties, and his son, JamesR., '27, became the second second-genera-tion "C" man in 1925.And LastTHE General Education Board has appropriata to the University $1,000,-000 toward $2,000,000 needed for the con-struction, equipment and endowment of twobuildings, one for the Department of Anat-omy and one for the Department ofHygiene and Bacteriology. The GEB giftis conditional, to be matched by a similarsum from other sources. These new biologi-cal units are sorely needed to provide adequate quarters for two strong departments.The Bacteriology Department, long housedin the two temporary Ricketts structures, isprobably the outstanding university depart-ment in the country, under Edwin O. Jordan. The work of the Anatomy depart-ment has always been fundamental incharacter, and has laid the ground work forseveral spectacular developments in biologyand medicine, notably the discovery of in-sulin by Banting and MacLeod. The newstructures will probably rise on the Medicaiquadrangle, on or near the present site ofthe University bookstore.Thirty other smaller gifts are announcedin the July record, notably that of $50,000from Max Epstein to be applied to theerection of an outpatient clinic for theProvident Hospital and Training School.Mr. Epstein has provided the funds forthe outpatient division of the UniversityClinics, and for a similar division of theaffiliated Chicago Lying-In Hospital, whichis nearing completion west of the Clinics,474 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINEand the funds for the $1,000,000 Artproject. Under a cooperative agreementwith the Provident Hospital, a negro institution which trains doctors, the University took over the medicai direction of theHospital and its Training School, for whichpurpose the University received $1,000,000last autumn from the General EducationBoard. The Hospital Trustees have mean-while raised $2,000,000 more and have secured the older building of the Lying-InHospital on 5ist St.A forfner graduate student of the University has given $15,000 for the establishment of the S. J. Lamson Scholarship Fund.The net income, following the donor'sWHAT the conventional vendors ofsports news term the "thud of thepigskin" is, at this particular moment of activity with the typewriter, ex-actly two months in the future. But onStagg Field the annual business of boltingthe steel stands together is affording worthyyoung men a summer of casual labor andMr. A. A. Stagg has completed the harrow-ing task of checking up his candidates withthe Bureau of Records.This seems, therefore, the proper time forgently imparting the information that unlessthe Old Man figures out a method of win-ning football games that eliminates thenecessity of an effective line, the 1930Maroons are not going to win a conferencechampionship.For the alumnus who can take his football or leave it alone, the season should notbe one of unmitigated embarrassment.Any team which can throw touchdownsfrom Mr. Stagg's "flanker" formation theway Chicago did last season is sure to benot only interesting but surprising, whetheror not it has a line. The fact is that the death, is to be used for scholarships andfellowships, on condition that the recipientshall undertake to contribute to others to-ward their educational expenses a sum equalto that they may receive, or more, on likecondition. The Sigma Alumnae Association has given the University $300 for a1 930-3 J scholarship.And President Hutchins announced tothe alumni on June 7th that FrederickStock, director of the Chicago SymphonyOrchestra, will give the University part-time service during the coming year, as thefirst move in the contemplated establishment of a Department of Music.Old Man's development of the passing gameis two years ahead of the rest of the world,right down the list from Abileiie Christianto Ypsilanti Normal. Proof, if you re-quire it, is furnished by the rush to adopt the"flanker" elsewhere. One intimate rivai ofChicago put in the Spring experimentingwith the formation. Ali of which, in viewof the anguished complaints in the halcyonyears of 1920-24 that Mr. Stagg didn'tknow anything about forward passes, ratherconfounds the volunteer experts.The inventory as of the middle of July,shows that twelve "C" men of 1929, eightof whom were regulars in the line, havepassed out of college competition. Eight"C" men, four of whom are linemen, andone of whom is in rather desperate scholas-tic difficulties, return this Autumn. Thereare six reserves of more or less value to addto this slim total, and eight freshmen fromwhom some contribution can be expected.The great preponderance of ability is inthe backfield. The important question, inthe , early season at least, is whether a linecan be patched together that will give theBy William V. Morgenstern, '20 J.D. '22ATHLETICS 475backfield a chance to do anything else butmake tackles.Weaver and Marshall, centers; Cassieand Sonderby, guards; Bunge and Froberg,tackles; Jersild and Capt. Kelly, ends, andHeywood, Bluhm, Wattenberg, and Bur-gess, backfield men, are lost. The "C" mento return are Horwitz and Brislen, guards;Trude, tackle ; Cowley, end, and Capt. VanNice, Stagg, Knudson and Tempie, backs.Mr. Stagg can start by wondering whator which he can use for centers. It may benecessary to shift Andy Brislen from guardto center, a position which he has notplayed. There are two sophomores withpromise, Keith Parsons, a 180 pounder fromDavenport, la., who may turn up thisAutumn with fìve more pounds. He hashad little experience, but he is a good passerand he is willing. Raymond Zenner, fromBrookfield, is another prospect, with some-what more experience than Parsons, andplenty of aggressiveness. He weighs at present 1 72, which is very light, considering thelack of heft in the guards. Sam Horwitz,one of the regular guards, is a keen playerand a clever one. Add another ten poundsto his present 168 and he would be one ofthe best in the Big Ten. Stanley Hamberg,who carne from nowhere last season as asophomore, should be the choice for theother guard. He weighs 191. Among thefreshmen, there is apparently one prospect,Tompeo Toigo, cousin of the battling 148pounder of two years ago. Tompeo doessomewhat better in weight, for he is ali of164. Even if Parsons or Zenner developsinto an acceptable center, leaving Horwitz,Brislen, Hamberg, and possibly Toigo, forguards, there is no oversupply of men forthe position.Moving over to tackle, Mr. Stagg cancontemplate Walter Trude, who is his soleexperienced candidate, engaged in a returnmatch with the Bureau of Records. Thesehot summer days are not conducive to ener-getic study, either. Trude, who is dose to190, and a good rough young man, willmake a lot of difference, one way or theother, to the line. Alvin Reiwitch, who isphysically able to handle the position andlast year went a long way in finding out what it was ali about, is the leading candidate at present. W. B. Cassels, son of oneof the regulars of the 1899 champions, hasacquired a football instinct. He is a reedy,183 pounder, with considerale experiencein high school. Walter Maneikis, fromLindblom high, who weighs 195 and wasregarded as the best of the freshman line-men, is another possibility.Hai Cowley, who is a vicious open fieldtackler and has plenty of speed, is a cer-tainty at one end. He could be more con-sistent in catching passes. Bernard Wien,who played in several games last year andhad brilliant flashes, is the only other experienced man. Both are light, Cowleybeing only 162 and Wien 160. AlvinJackson, a notable physical specimen fromGary, where he was ali-state, has neverbeen able to report for practice, and thereis doubt as to his eligibility. Jackson isa sensational basketball player and there isevery reason to believe that he could be agood end. Art Abbott, a sub end of twoyears ago, may also be back.If there is a dearth of material in theline, there is plenty of talent in the backfield. Paul Stagg will be a better quarter-back with an added year of play ; Van Nicelooks like a successor to Wattenberg, thegreat passer of last year, and in addition isa powerful runner. Knudson is a fine de-fensive man and a last shot plunger whocan make those two yards on fourth down.Knudson, by the way, has a much greaterreputation among the players than with thepublic. Tempie is a good, steady man,sometimes likely to be tricked, but poisonwhen he is where he should be. Mac-Kenzie, a chunky sub fullback, who may beturned into a lineman, and Greer, a subhalf, are reserve men returning. There areat least three first-rate freshmen to consider :Robert Wallace, from Morgan Park Mili-tary Academy; Don Birney, from GrandIsland, Nebr., and Sidney Stackler, a freshman of three seasons ago. Wallace is light,152 pounds, but he moves with agility andpurpose. He may prove a real threat as aball carrier. Birney is a better lookingpunter than the Maroon team has had inyears, will develop as a passer, and is fair476 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINEotherwise. He was an ali-state man in thehome state, according to report. Birneyweighs 163. Stackler is fairly big, 180pounds, and has plenty of offensive stufi,particularly in driving through the line.He has not a great deal of deception but hedoes have power.It hardly seems possible that the line canbe ready for the Wisconsin game on Oc-tober 11 and the possibilities of winningthat game now appear to be slight. The"flanker" will not be working at full ef-ficiency ' that early, which is unfortunate,for with a weak line the only hope ofchecking a strong team lies in making biggains by the forward pass method. TheFlorida and Mississippi lines probably willnot be much better than Chicago's, and bythe time the big contest with Princetoncomes on November 1, the Old Man shouldhe getting everything out of his forwardsthat they have to give. Ali this discussionof the line should not obscure the fact thatmost of the progress that this 1930 teamachieves will be traceable to the power ofthe good left arm of Mr. Van Nice. ThisChicago team, out of necessity, probablywill play more basketball and less footballthan any team in the country.wwwThe fifth University of Chicago baseball invasion is now under way, withCoach Nelson Norgren and a squad oftwelve players somewhere in the hinter-lands of Montana, barnstorming their wayto the Pacific Coast. The squad left Chicago on August 4, and will sail for Japanfrom Seattle at noon of August 20, on theS. S. Hikawa Maru of the N. Y. K. line.the team arrives in Yokohama on September2, and after playing fifteen games, will re turn to Chicago about November i, per-haps in time to see the Princeton-Chicagofootball game.A team that could win but two games inthe conference has been improved so muchby Constant practice and the addition of threemembers of the f reshman team that it oughtto win a majority of its games without greatdifficulty. It is not a great ball team butit is a good one for a college aggregation.The fielding is certain and the hitting powerhas been vastly increased. Eight of thesquad are hitting better than .300.Choice of the team was a difHcult matterfor Coach Norgren, and there was a pos-sibility as this was written that one moreman would be added to the twelve alreadyselected. The selections include ArthurCanili, a versatile utility man, who canpitch, catch and play the outfield ; MarshallFish, basketball captain, who plays thirdbase; John Gray, center field; Roy Hen-shaw, f reshman pitcher; Capt. MauriceHolahan, second base; Clarence L. Johnson, a f reshman, who plays shortstop;Harold C. Johnson, another freshman, out-fielder; William Knowles, left handedpitcher; John Lynch, outfielder and sub-stitute catcher; also a freshman; WilliamOlson, first base; Wilbur Urban, pitcher,and Hayden Wingate, catcher.Professor Iso Abe of Waseda University,known as the "Father of Japanese baseball,"and Director Stagg arranged the first tourof an American team back in 19 io, whenCoach H. O. Page and Capt. Joe Peguestook a club over that won ten straight inJapan. Other trips have been made in1915, 1920, and 1925. The college ballteams of Japan are the best in the islandsand crowds of 25,000 and more attend theMaroon-Japanese games.in mt oviuiobBy Fred B. MillettAssistant Professor of English4T THE moment of writing, only/-^ three legitimate plays are visible onX -A*, the Chicago stage, and of these, onlyone, Candlelight, can be taken seriously aseven light entertainment. For the rest, thetheatres are dark or are given over to thedin of the talkies. With regard to this new-est device of torture. I am in the situationof the middle-aged gentlemen in EvelynWaugh's Vile Bodies, who tried to likeGreta Garbo, but couldn't. I find moreto admire in the Passion of Joan of Are,Ten Days that Shook the World, and Oldand New, than in even so remarkable atalkie as Ali Ouiet on the Western Front,Of course, it is not really so simple a ques-tion as the preference for silence over noise.The foreign pictures I enjoyed had theadvantage of brilliant direction and photog-raphy, and in each case they seem to havebeen lived, and not merely acted. Fromtheir long experience with silent films,American producers seem to have learnedlittle or nothing. They make almost noeffort to explore the potentialities of thenew form, but content themselves for themost part with staging third rate plays withuntrained actors and cacophonous voices.Aside from the deafening onslaught ofthe talkies, the most noteworthy feature ofthe expiring dramatic season is the increas-ing stratification of theatre audiences, theconscious building up of select and reliableorganized groups of playgoers. From thecommercial point of view such dependablesubscription audiences have their obviousadvantages ; there are likewise aesthetic ad-vantages in the implied like-mindedness andin the approximation to a single standardof taste in humor and ideas. Such a proc- ess seems to me to be promising in propor-tion as it is undemocratic. Art for themasses is a flattering but a pernicious slogan.Art of any distinction must always be mannafor the discriminating and, consequently,for the few.The Theatre Guild brought to itssoundly developed audience in Chicago acreditable but hardly distinguished program.Wìngs over Europe is perhaps the best ex-ampie this season of the sort of play it is theGuild's duty to produce occasionally — anintellectual melodrama, to be sure, but onebuilt up shrewdly and powerfully aroundan exciting idea. Major Barbara was un-evenly produced and acted, and the strikingnew presentation of R. U. R. did little morethan betray the essential hollowness of thispiece. Most delightful of the Guild's offer-ings was Caprìce, with Alfred Lunt andLynn Fontanne, the finest pair of actorsof high comedy on the American stage.S tran gè Interlude, though it suffered fromthe attentions of ignorant sensation-mongers, seemed stili to be the most tragicand moving drama that has come from anAmerican pen. The Dramatic League ofChicago, despite the ballyhooing of theeclipsed Frederick Donaghey, offerednothing more important than the galvanicsprightliness of The First Mrs. Fraser.Though the Goodman Theatre has madecomparatively little progress in organiz-ing its audience, and though it has notbeen so courageous as in former years inchoosing really distinguished plays, its pro-ductions have increased in assurance, deft-ness, and general effectiveness. Romeo andJuliet was beautifully colorful and con-vincingly youthful, Tour du Monde, a di-477478 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINEverting stunt, Escape, a shrewd productionof Galsworthy at his most partially impaniai, and Holiday, the most delectableAmerican comedy of many seasons. Thedialogue of the first act constantly refinesthe American "snappy come-back" to thepoint of veritable wit, and, though themovement of the second act is haphazard,and the satire on respectability clumsy, thetotal effect of the play is delightful andtouching. The recent decision of the ArtInstitute to try to attract larger audiencesto the Goodman by lighter dramatic fareis deeply regrettable. Chicago needs badlyan Art Theatre which will go on produc-ing important plays, whether or not theyattract large audiences. Surely a great citycan afford to subsidize a small but effectivecompany offering plays that the commercial theatre hasn't the brains or courage tobring us. It might well be the hope ofsuch an enterprise, patiently pursued, thatit should show a steadily decreasing deficit,as its serious work became more widely rec-oghized.The Shakespeare season at the CivicTheatre was a commendable beginning.The company was, to be sure, extraordi-narily uneven, and the decorations were pa-thetically meager, but the performancesthemselves were straightforward and com-mon-sensical. I am not at ali sure thatChicago's appetite for Shakespeare demandsan annual season of eleven weeks, but, if itdoes, the Society should work in the direction pointed out by the Stratford Playerswhose team-work, diction, intelligence, andanimation were superbly exhibited in sucha rarity as Richard II and such a familiarpiece as Twelfth Night. In the formercase, a play that has always seemed toopoetic and analytical for the common stagebecame painful yet beautiful tragedy.In contrast to these loftier endeavors,the hit-or-miss commercial theatre broughtus almost nothing of distinction. JuneMoon, vastly popular in New York, turnedout to be a rather tedious amalgam ofcheap wise-cracks, and Strictly Dishonor-able, another metropolitan sensation, wasinteresting only for the deft staging of Brock Pemberton. The glamor of EthelBarrymore shone out for a few moments inthe second act of the tawdry Love Duel, andKatharine Cornell was her poignantlylovely self beneath the furbelows of thestodgy Age of Innocence. Of the commercial theatre's offerings, such diverse affairsas Journey's End, Street Scene, Show Boat,and The Little Show seem in retrospectmost satisfying. The first, though slightlyirritating in its persistent British gentleman-liness, carne dose to the pity and terror oftragedy, and the second demonstrated boththe possibilities and the limitations of asomewhat thread-bare naturalism applied tothe seamier side of American life. ShowBoat, though discursive and occasionallymeaningless except to admirers of MissFerber's novel, caught something of theflavor of American life and decoration ofthe late nineteenth century. The LittleShow was an utterly delightful exhibitionof intelligence and taste applied to the dif-ficult medium of the intimate revue, asdelectable a form of entertainment as anyyet devised.But after ali the most important eventof the late dramatic season was the comingof Mei Lan-Fang and the Chinese Theatre.Despite the fact that no occidental couldgrasp a tenth of the subtleties of this alienart, this was the most illuminating experience I have had in thirty years of theatre-going. A whole strange and subtle worldcarne to life in a few short hours. It was aspectacle of complex and exotic, but per-fectly recognizable beauty, a beautywrought with infinitely patient art out ofmovement, pantomime, speech, and vocaland instrumentai music. It was a morealluring blend than grand opera, of the artsof dance and drama and music. More-over, it revealed, as nothing out of WesternEurope could have done, the inadequacies ofthe realistic tradition in the drama. It mayturn out to be a most important inciternentto the revolt of the theatre against naturalism, and to the luring back into the theatreof poetry and beauty and a free imagina-tion.NEWS OFTHE CLASSESAND ASSOCIATIONSCollege1886T.

Bigelow in the LawSchool, and President Robert M. Hutchinsin the University have completed the firstyear in their respective positions. The legaialumni decided to celebrate both events inone session, partly because they claim President Hutchins as a fellow law man, byreason of his recentdeanship of the YaleLaw School.To put the newadministration fullyin evidence, theguests of honor in-cluded also the twovice-presidents of theUniversity, FredericC. Woodward andLloyd C. Steere( both lawyers ) , andthe entire faculty ofthe law school, withthe exception of twoor three who wereunable to be present.Ali the guestswere requested tospeak, but asidefrom the President,the Dean, and Professor Hinton, the speakers were limitedto one hundred words each. It's reallysurprising how much a learned man can sayin that many words when he knows therewon't be any more.It turned out to be largely a Hintonevening. The alumni presented a portraitof Professor E. W. Hinton, who has beenon the faculty since 19 13, and who wasActing Dean for fifteen months followingthe death of Dean James Parker Hall. Thepresentation speech was made by JudgeWalter P. Steffen, President of the Association. President Hutchins accepted the portrait in behalf of the University. Thepicture was painted by Mr. John W.Norton, and is an excellent likeness inmodernistic style.Laird Bell, J.D. '07, a member of theBoard of Trustees of the University, re-ported progress on the recent drive forsubscriptions to the fund for the endowmentof the James Parker Hall chair of Consti-tutional Law. About $8,000 per year fora period of Uve years has been subscribedto date, and the campaign will be continued.Already it has been announced that Professor Hinton willbe the first occupantof the chair. Mostof the speakerscentered their talkson him.Mr. Hinton ex-pressed his apprecia-tion with some feeling. He said he feltpride in having hisportrait among thegroup previouslypresented by the Association — D e a nHall, ProfessorMechem, ProfessorFreund and DeanBigelow.Dean Bigelowwas not handicappedby the hundred wordlimit, but spoke atsome length of the plans for limiting the attendance by means of intelligence and apti-tude tests ; also of strengthening the facultyand broadening the curriculum. It has beendefinitely decided after some years of debateto make this a small but select law school,with an attendance of about 200, but itwill take a few years to weed down to thatfigure.George M. Morris, J.D. '15, of Washington, D. C, made known the main features of a pian modestly credited by him toa committee appointed at the AlumniDinner in 1929, said George being chair-Luncheon August 21^ 1930A luncheon of the alumni of theLaw School will be held at 12:30P.

Formai actionin adopting it was deferred at Morris'ssuggestion to a luncheon which will be heldat the Stevens Hotel, Chicago, at 12:30P. M. on Thursday, August 21, 1930, during the meeting of the American Bar Association.The reunions of the five-year classesbrought to their feet the remnants of 1905,1910, 1915, 1920 and 1925, with a spokes-man for each.About forty members of the class of 1930were guests of the Association, and werereceived into the Association.The election of officers resulted as fol-lows :President — Charles P.
