S. BoucherDean of the College^HE above title headed an article inthe Midsummer, 1930, number of- The University of ChicagoMagazine, announcing special awards ofhonor, with accompanying increases insalary, to five faculty members in recognition of their excellence in the teaching ofundergraduates. The same title is nowused for this article announcing similarawards to ten faculty members. It isearnestly hoped that this same title may beused hereafter for what will prove to bean annual feature of great interest to allmembers of the University of Chicagofamily.The awards of 1930 were made possibleby the gift of an anonymous alumnus forthat particular purpose. Comments amongfaculty members at the time and for atleast a year afterward seemed to indicatequite clearly that these special awards ofhonor, with the accompanying increases insalary, provided a stimulus more effectivethan anything else that had ever been saidor done in the University of Chicago forthe development of excellence in College teaching. Very fortunately, too, the giftcame at a time when assistance in ourefforts to improve the College program wasmost needed.The present awards are made possibleby a gift from an anonymous friend of theUniversity who may or may not be, forought the writer knows, the same person.Again very fortunately, this second giftcomes at a time when most needed to keepalive and vigorous the verve and enthusiasmthat our faculty members have shown intheir truly heroic efforts to offer the bestCollege program in the country.President Hutchins, early in his administration, took the step necessary to guaranteea continuation of the faculty interest ineffective College work aroused by thespecial awards of 1930, when he announcedthat faculty members who make significantcontributions in College education will receive recognition in promotions in rank andincreases in salary comparable to the sameforms of recognition given for significantresearch productivity at the graduate level.THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINEThe generous expression of interest onthe part of our anonymous friend has enabled us to keep faith with the President'spromise earlier than would otherwise havebeen possible. Though there has never beenany question about keeping faith with thispromise ultimately, it seemed for a time,when the budget for 1932-33 was beingframed, that no increases in salary could beawarded. Now, however, at a time whenmost persons in all walks of life are facinga decrease in income, at least a few of ourfaculty members will be in the enviableposition of receiving an increase in salaryand at least a modicum of the recognitionthey have earned — thanks to our anonymous friend.This special fund was designated to beused for salary increases effective in thenext academic year for a limited number offaculty members, nominated, by the Deanof the College and approved by thePresident, in recognition of significant contributions to the success of the Collegeprogram. Since so many faculty membershave distinguished themselves by the excellence of their service in the College, theselection of those who seemed to be mostworthy of awards at this time was no easymatter. After a very careful canvass thefollowing ten were selected : G. E. Bentley,Otto F. Bond, M. C. Coulter, H. D.Gideonse, Mary B. Gilson, Peter Hagboldt,H. B. Lemon, N. F. Maclean, EugeneStaley, Louis Wirth.Gerald E. Bentley, Assistant Professor ofEnglish, prepared excellent syllabi for twointroductory courses in the Study of Dramaand in the Study of Shakespeare, and hasdistinguished himself by the excellence ofhis instruction.Otto F. Bond, Associate Professor ofRomance Languages in the College andChairman of Modern Languages in theCollege, and Peter Hagboldt, AssociateProfessor of German in the College, haveattracted attention to the University ofChicago throughout the country by thedevelopment of remarkably successfulmethods and techniques in elementarymodern language instruction set forth inmany published articles and several series of texts published by the University ofChicago Press.Merle C. Coulter, Professor of Botanyand Adviser to premedical students in theCollege, has served as chairman of the groupwho prepared and are now revising thesyllabus for the new Introductory Coursein the Biological Sciences, and has beenresponsible for the administration of thisexcellent and stimulating course.Harry D. Gideonse, Associate Professorof Economics, is a brilliant teacher and hasserved as chairman of the two groups responsible for the content and administr^^"of the first and the second year gehcicucourses in the Social Sciences.Mary B. Gilson, Instructor in Economics, and Eugene Staley, Assistant Professor of Economics, as discussion groupleaders and in their individual conferenceswith students in the Introductory GeneralCourse in the Social Sciences have inspiredand effectively trained many students.Harvey B. Lemon, Professor of Physics,has been untiring and ever faithful in animmense amount of work connected withdesigning and administering the Introductory General Course in the PhysicalSciences and the special museum laboratoryset up in cooperation with the Museum ofScience and Industry.Norman F. Maclean, Instructor in English, as a leader of discussion groups and inhis personal conferences with students inthe Introductory General Course in theHumanities, has proven himself one of themost effective teachers in the College.Louis Wirth, Assistant Professor ofSociology, has been invaluable in the organization and administration of the firstand the second year general courses in theSocial Sciences.It can truly be said again, as was saidat the time of the earlier awards, that thereare a number of other members of thefaculty to whom similar awards mightjustly have been made, and we hope thatthey will receive such recognition in thenear future. This hope expressed in 193°has now been realized in 1932. May thehope now expressed in 1932 be realized in1933!Adventures of an Emerita^ HE habit of years is despotic. Youthink that you can lightly renounce¦ the sweet task of saying the final andauthoritative word on the subject of yourspecialty, to a docile student group. Butyou cannot. You have spent years in acquiring the technique of the professionalmonologue, and you are homesick for achance to lecture. You may be unconscious of this yearning, but this is the realcause of your restlessness at a ladies' luncheon or at an afternoon tea, where everyonehas an equal right to prattle.Therefore when a group of charmingwomen in the City of Many Lakes, whichis my home, asked me to give them someFrench Causeries, my heart leapt in eagerconsent. The only condition they madewas that the lectures were to be in French,the subjects to be of my own choosing.What a vista opened before me ! No longerneed I consider the requirements for thosemajoring in French. At last I could ceasefrom impertinent intrusions into the privatelives, the secret thoughts, the complicatedmotives, of the Great French Classics. Nomore need I question what influenced them,or whom they had influenced, or mighteventually influence. I could now abandonthe stately streets and straight roads thatlead to Academic prestige, and wander alongwhimsical paths that bring unexpectedbeauty at every turn, and about whose objective you are concerned not at all.Thus were organized the Causeries d' Eteand the Causeries dJAutomne. I'm not surewhat gave me most delight, — whether it wasSome Best Sellers of the 18th Century, orMental Food for Children in the 17th Century, or Great Adventuresses in Life, but Ido know that in my search for materialfor the various series of talks, I had allthe thrill of adventure, while at the sametime, I felt the subtle guidance of the Masters to whom I had given such long service.It may have been this reversion to typethat moved me to spend the next winter inFrance, or it may have been the desire to see with my own eyes the changes thathad come there during the twelve years sinceArmistice Day.After the War I had spent several summers in France, but Paris is not Paris insummer, and it was the life of Paris Iwanted to feel again. I wanted to revisitthe haunts of my student days, and see thechanges that time had made. There wereplenty of them! All through the LatinQuarter there were signs of a constant andstubborn struggle between the past andthe present; between old habits, old prejudices, old traditions, and the new postur-ings, theories, and gestures of modern progress.I remember a tiny little street hidden behind protecting buildings and bearing thename of Here-lies-t he-heart. It was toonarrow for the horse-cab, and was alwaysincredibly cluttered with children and dangling clothes, and women swinging salads inwoven baskets, and friendly dogs of unregulated personal habits. I shall go thereand look for a certain ancient Hotel, whosedoorway is surmounted by a coat of armsand where the courtyard is filled with gentleghosts. Surely it will have escaped thedevastating mania for widening streets anderecting apartment houses. But when Iapproach what used to be the street, it isno longer there. Instead there is a newrond-point, clean and geometrical, whereauto-taxis whirl with vertiginous speed. Ilook up and see that the interior walls ofsome of the demolished houses are stillstanding. They expose the winding marksof their old staircases, and the blackenedtraces of their chimneys to the gaze of anindifferent world. I say to a trim youngpoliceman who is regulating the traffic withgraceful gestures, "What a pity the oldstreet has disappeared!" He replies briskly,"Ah, it couldn't exist on account of thecirculation!" He lifted his white baton,and instantly a half dozen taxis, with shrieking brakes, stopped their onward rush.There is no question about it. Architecturally old Paris is having a losing struggle294 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINEwith the ruthless forces of the present.On the right bank there is change too.The stately boulevards have burst out in ablaze of electric signs that rivals Broadway.The loud speaker is heard whether youwill or not, and the poisonous trail of theadvertising agent is blatantly evident.The people, too, have changed. Nolonger, or but rarely, do you see the majesticbeard that once was so proudly worn; thelong, carefully barbered and tailored beardthat gave to many aface an air of virileforce. To see thesegrowths in their oldtime splendor, youwould have to go to asolemn function at theSorbonne, or attendthe funeral of an agedman of letters.The lady of a certain age, as the Frenchin their clear incisiveway say it, still existschronologically, buther age reveals itselfmore uncertainly because of the thousand adventitious aids tobeauty that are within her eager reach.The jeune fille is obsolete. Instead yousee an independent young person, who isalmost the exact duplicate of the AmericanGirl. Less noisy perhaps, and more graceful ; less conspicuous and more gay ; but likeher sister across the Atlantic she has assumeddelightful little airs of liberty. She nolonger asks permission to do this or that.She decides for herself and gives no onecount of her goings and comings.%? tr ?|t y& y&Everywhere there is evidence of foreigninvasion. A French friend invites you toa restaurant for luncheon, and you findyourself in l'Hermitage Russe. You havebeen driven there by a Russian Count disguised as a taxi-driver, and after luncheonyou go to the Russian ballet. Pirandelloand Bernard Shaw are the most populardramatists. Emil Ludwig comes to give alecture on Goethe, but he has to give itthree times because of the insistent demands of the public and despite the fact that hespeaks French with a devastating accent.Gaston Baty has to recoup the finances ofthe gorgeous Theatre Pigalle by presentingDie Fledermaus in German and interpretedby German and Austrian artists.And above all, there is the American invasion. I can well remember thirty yearsago that I felt apologetic for my Americanaccent, for my American clothes. That isall changed now. No longer do I have toexplain that our Congressmen do not reallyrepresent, that mostof us see the futilityof legislating againstevolution and that theStatue of Liberty andprohibition really present no contradiction.They know all this aswell as I do. But thecurious thing is, thatbeing informed theyinsist upon imitatingus, subtlest of flattery.Modern French is shotthrough with Americanisms, beeg-business, standard-eezer,fleerter, cocktail, knock-out. Afternoon teahasgiven way to cocktail parties; black-bottomand the Charleston are performed with dislocating frenzy. In the bookstores thereis a display of Babbitt (just translated), ofThoreau (just translated), of New York,by Paul Morand, of Andre Siegfried's newbook on the United States. At the Theatredu Palais Royal, of spicy reputation, thereis a play, Amour a I'Americaine. Spinelly,the agile, the witty, the audacious, plays therole of the indecorous Mrs. Barclay, whowants to "make love magnificently" withthe first good-looking comer. She is fabulously rich, unbelievably impulsive, childishly vulgar, generously kind, fundamentallydecent. Is she a type? The audience, delirious with mirth, accept her as such.I go to a dinner given for Andre Siegfried,author of America Comes of Age. Hishearers are all French with one or two exceptions. They ask him concerning theUnited States. What is his real opinion?President Vincent of Haiti, Elizabeth Wallace,a Member of the Seminar, and SenatorHudicourt.ADVENTURES OF AN EMERITAOver there, they are so immensely rich, somenacingly powerful, so filled with energy,so unafraid, — what is the future? Siegfried answers, "There are times in theworld's history when an idea dominates,when a man rules, when a nation is supreme.There was once a Golden Age of Greece,there was once a Roman Empire, there wasonce a Napoleonic Era. This period weare living in now will go down in historyas the American Epoch. Whether it willbe glorious or not depends upon the American people themselves."There was silence for a moment and Ifelt a catch at the throat and a quickeningat the heart that made me yearn for athousand persuasive tongues so that I mightproclaim to my fellow countrymen the highopportunity that was ours.The three months in Paris were crowdedwith experiences which would fill a wholenumber of the Magazine, and would borethe reader to extinction. I can assure you,however, that there was a peculiar spiceabout researches in the Most Modern Poetry and among the Youngest Poets, andthat many thrills were furnished behind thescenes of the newest theatres. But I mustbreak away from France and go on to thenext adventure.*****Ever since our South American trip ourminds would often turn to our Latin-American neighbors. They were so nearand we really knew so little about them.We had a lurking suspicion that if we couldhear the other side of the building of thePanama Canal and of the Haitian Occupation that we might be better able to judgeof our national nobility of character.Therefore I wasn't surprised one eveningto hear one of my brothers exclaim, "I'vefound out what I want to do this winter,"and he handed me an invitation that hadbeen sent him to join the Caribbean Cruiseof the Seminar on Cultural Relations withLatin-America. "I'm going along," said I."Count me in," said brother number two,and in two weeks we were on our way toNew York.Despite its formidable title, the Seminaris an unpretentious but delightful venture in the field of human understanding. Thegenial Director of the venture believes thatit is a grievous thing for people to live sideby side in mutual misunderstanding andsuspicion ; that it is a better thing to increasein appreciation of each others' spiritual gifts,to profit by the sharing of cultures, ideas andexperiences. The Seminar is simply a meansfor the furthering of such understanding.Groups of intelligent persons are invited togo to Latin- America where they may in turnmeet groups of intelligent natives withwhom ideas can be interchanged withmutual profit.The idea was most appealing and therealization of it exceeded our expectations.We were a group of sixty when we sailedfrom New York, of which five formed aneminent faculty. We represented everycalling in life from bankers, publishers andlawyers, social workers, editors and preachers down to ex-teachers. We came fromCalifornia and from Maine, from Minnesota and from Mississippi, and if we werenot at the outset, we soon were imbuedwith the eager spirit of adventurers in understanding.At first a little cautious and distrustfulof lectures, we were soon struggling forfront seats in the lounge consecrated to ouruse, and listening with rapt, attention tothe romantic, colorful and tragic story of theislands of the Caribbean. And this we didfor four hours a day for four days, believeme who will ! As a consequence, when wearrived at San Juan, Porto Rico, we weremore than eager for the many things wewere to see and hear.. Governor Roosevelt,President Chardon of the University, Ministers of State and members of the Facultyhad joined in planning a program that filledthe one day of our stay to bursting and convinced us that time was the most elastic offictions.The three days in Santo Domingo let ussee how devastatingly cruel Nature can b<for the tornado of a few months before haduprooted all the stately palms and swept toruin hundreds of houses. We also foundthat the culture of generations, centeredabout one of the oldest American Universities, can resist revolutionary storms and296 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINEGranary and Peasant Hut in Haitipersist in forming minds and developingcharacter such as we recognized in the persons of the venerable Chancellor, of the finefeatured Archbishop and of the vigorousMinister of Education.From the black, Spanish speaking republic of Santo Domingo we go to the blackFrench speaking republic of Haiti, whichthe United States has been forcibly occupying since 1915. We expected antagonism,and were not at all prepared for the courtesyand cordiality of the welcome given us. Norwere we prepared for the frank outpouringof grievances against our fashion of governing. We listened in silence for we knew toowell our short-comings. It all seemed terribly hopeless. On one side the record ofbrutal, unwarranted invasion, inconceivablystupid blundering for years, and then, honestefforts to clear up the mess. Financial probity of administration, enlightened publichealth programs, vigorous attempts to introduce American educational ideas withour touching faith in their universal fitness ;building of roads in a country where onlyan infinitesimal part of the population canafford a car. In other words, splendid,energetic, practical efforts to do for thetropical little republic just what we woulddo for any country on God's earth, for isn'tour way the best way?On the other side, a little state with itstragic history of oppression, of revolt, ofcivil strife, of efforts at self-government,of irresponsibility, but also of flaming patriotism, of eager search for a national life,trapped, as it were, into an arrangement,which, however good for its physical existence, has brought an intellectual restlessness, a spiritual discontent, which distorts itsvision and exaggerates every situation. As we sailed away from the Black Republic,the evening mists rose slowly and veiled thesharp outlines of rocky shores and mountainpeaks ; phantom mists evoked by disillusionment, disappointment, fear, through whichthe Haitian sees fantastic mirages which arenevertheless terribly real to him. We feltwith poignant intensity, that to dissipatethese mists is our task. To do it, we needmore than efficiency, energy, practical business ability, sincere good will ; we need thesaving grace of sympathetic imagination.As we swung around the circle of theCaribbean, we found at each stopping placenot only brilliancy of color, luscious fruits,gorgeous flowers, diversity of race and language, picturesque customs, but we also hadglimpses of troublous, vexing problems andof noble, constructive efforts.At our last station, Havana, we hoped totake breath, but instead what we saw andheard there left us almost breathless. Forwe arrived soon after the student strike atthe University, and terrorism reigned. Theprofessors we met were jobless, and in dailyfear of imprisonment. The students, burning with patriotic ardor, but leaderless, wereexpending their energies on furtive meetings, and in hurling tear bombs at elderlygenerals.The government was at a loss how toretaliate effectively, especially in dealingwith the women students, who were especially active. Finally some one hit upon asingularly ingenious plan. "Why not," hequeried, "shame the young women?" Andbeing a bit old-fashioned, he suggested thatthey be reduced to submission by divestingthem of their clothes in public. But I shalllet pretty Sylvia tell the story. I was takenA Sylvan Scene in HaitiADVENTURES OF AN EMERITA 297to her home one day.When the car stopped before her house, my guide,a Cuban lady suffragist,drew down the curtainsand said, "I shall bring herout to you. It is safer."She left me wondering ifI should, by evening, belying in a cell of LasCabanas, and in a fewminutes returned with anextraordinarily prettyyoung girl of eighteen ornineteen, whose dark eyeswere shining with excitement. It was Sylvia, whoa week or two before, hadbeen assailed in the street.She was a Junior at theUniversity."Tell Miss Wallace how it happened,"said the lady suffragist. And Sylvia began,"I was coming home with my boy friend,Antonio, and we were over there by thecorner, when, suddenly, as though they hadsprung from the ground, five women surrounded us. Dios mio ! but they were ugly.Three of them were black and all were ofthe street. They wore metal nails on theirthumbs, the kind that are used for strippingtobacco, and they caught hold of me before I knew it. Antonio, poor boy, tried tofight, but they were too much for him, andhe ran to get help. The hideous women cutmy clothes off with their nails, a long snipin front, another behind, and everythingfalls off to the ground. They laugh andCarnival Dancers on the Steps ofthe Presidential Palace at Portau Prince tell me to run homethrough the streets. Theydidn't know my house wasso near! And what did Icare! I go to the bathingbeach too often to mind alittle thing like this. Butit is the insult, for thesewomen are hired to do itby the government, and Ihave been the third to bestripped. We shall find away though to get even!"And they did. I heardthe sequel later. It soundslike an invention ofSylvia's fertile brain. Oneevening five girl studentssallied out on the street,uttering seditious sentiments against President Machado. In ashort time they were surrounded by a gangof women armed in the usual way. Thegirls showed fight and defended themselvesso vigorously that very soon they had wipedup the street with their assailants, and asthey fled from the scene, they showed undoubted masculine legs. This was the lastattempt to strip girls in Havana.My first Seminar to the Caribbean wasover, and I felt that new and interestingworlds had been opened up to me, but Idid not then guess that a new field of workwas to stretch out before me, full of possibilities, rich in rewards, and endless in adventures.Medical Alumni ClinicsThe annual Medical Alumni Clinics will be held daily from Thursday,June g, to and incuding Wednesday, June 15.

Complete details will be given in later publicity.in mv opinionBy Fred B. MillettAssistant Professor of EnglishJC. A. WRITES : I am going to askyou to name four English womennovelists of to-day who are really"novelists." In October, I asked ProfessorPhelps the same question, naming MaySinclair and Sheila Kaye-Smith myself.He agreed to those two, but said he was"not sure" as to the other two. "PossiblyV. Sackville-West and G. B. Stern." Ifyou are so kind as to play this "innocuousparlor-game" with me, I think you willname Virginia Woolf first, and I shall begrateful if you will name at least threeothers.A. W. M. writes : My last excursion hasbeen with Virginia Woolf through thedreary pages of Mrs. Dalloway. Tell mewhat I ought to think of her. What in hermethod is unique? And if it is unique, is itimportant, or merely different in the journalistic sense? Sir Richard, in his fifties,hastening across Regent's Park, his armsfull of red and white roses, to tell his wife heloves her — really such emotions are much tootepid to be Actionized successfully, in aworld where violent and stirring conflictsjust beyond the horizon begin to seepthrough to our consciousness.^ 7& yfc "ffi 1>Choosing the four leading English womennovelists is a far more difficult game thanits American equivalent. For, whereas itwould be hard to name ten American womennovelists deserving serious consideration, itis difficult to limit the English entrants tomanageable numbers. With a crowdedfield, the problems of acquaintanceship anddiscrimination increase enormously. Andfor me, there is an additional critical handicap. Since I never read an Americannovelist merely for pleasure, it is easier tobe critical of him than of an English novelist, the scrutiny of whose work isboth a personal pleasure and a criticalproblem.In a serious pursuit of the leading English women novelists, it would surely beimpossible to avoid at least summary consideration of such veterans as May Sinclair,Sheila Kaye-Smith, or Anne DouglasSedgwick (whose American birth does notprevent her being an English novelist),witty satirists like Rose Macaulay andStella Benson, fantasists as various asRomer Wilson and Sylvia Townsend Warner, family-chroniclers like Storm Jamesonand G. B. Stern, and experimenters as different as Dorothy Richardson and VirginiaWoolf. The contest becomes too frantic,and I must content myself merely withindicating the women whose work happensto interest me. And I must confess thatmy interest in the modern novel is almostdirectly proportionate to the degree of experimentation that it involves. I can see noreason for reading current novels which,except in nomenclature and setting, differnot a whit from the estimable novels of ourgrandmothers. For me, the novel musthave novelty; if it lacks novelty, I preferdependables like Jane Austen and GeorgeEliot. Then at least one is sure to getthe first-rate and not the tenth-rate imitation of a good old model.It is on this ground that I find much toadmire but little to interest me in the workof Sheila Kaye-Smith. She works conscientiously in the tradition of ThomasHardy and Eden Philpotts. Her knowledge of the English countryside is ample andsympathetic; her psychological range isprobably greater than that of any othercontemporary woman novelist, — from thelust for land, the theme of Sussex Gorse,308in my opinion 309to the masculine-feminine capability ofJoanna Godden and the religious experienceof The Tramping Methodist and The Endof the House of Alard. But with all hergifts (and they are great) her work givesan impression, familiar enough in Englishnovels, of an over-abundance of life and adeficiency in art.Miss Sinclair seems far less significant,far less interesting than she did fifteen yearsago, but she is conspicuous and noteworthyas an indefatigable and stimulating experimenter. Indeed, her reputation is probably suffering from the too great plasticityof her mind, her too feminine responsiveness to the allurement of new styles, newmodes in fiction. She has never found acharacteristically individual medium. Instead, there is an almost unbridgeable abyssbetween the solid stolid Victorianism ofThe Divine Fire and the brilliant impressionism of Mary Olivier. Between andaround them lie the dire consequences ofMiss Sinclair's liaison with psychoanalysis,from the incredible crudeness of The Romantic to the masterly study of negativismin Harriet Frean, — telling illustrations ofthe danger to the artist of adherence to ascientific or pseudo-scientific interpretationof character. In Mary Olivier, Miss Sinclair is at once the pupil of Freud and thefollower of Dorothy Richardson. But herethe Freudianism is implicit, and here, withperhaps unconscious feminine malice, shehas shown Miss Richardson how to use herown - particular method with genuinelynovelistic effect. But I fear that there islittle lasting power in Miss Sinclair's interminable and varied achievement, thoughMary Olivier is almost certain to remain alandmark in the aesthetics of the Englishnovel.Recently, John Cowper Powys (whosereputation as a critic is only slightly lessinsecure than his reputation as a novelist)has hailed Dorothy Richardson as the equalof Proust, not to mention Goethe, Homer,and other small fry. This is to show thewoman something less than cavalier devotion. Miss Richardson is, to be sure, anexperimenter of the first importance inmodern English literature. She has had the courage to take over from psychoanalysisthe technique of the stream of consciousness, and to fill volume after volume withdraughts from that stream. In consequence,I doubt if there is a character in Englishfiction so completely recorded as MiriamHenderson. Around the core of her activebut dullish consciousness, a whole worldof sensations, impressions, persons, ideas,and feelings is created. As a piece of socialhistory, as material for the psychologist andthe sociologist, Pilgrimage is a matter of thefirst importance. But, though one admiresMiss Richardson's inexhaustible courage,though one acknowledges that her writingis perhaps more truly feminine than anywriting of this or any other age, the aestheticresult is something less than perfectlysatisfying. Basically, she has been unfortunate in her choice of a heroine, forthere is something repellant about an unending series of presentations of a mind asegocentric, negative, and introverted as thatof Miriam Henderson.Virginia Woolf is the only living novelistwhom I should regret not reading in herentirety. Like Miss Sinclair, she is a tireless and brilliant experimenter. Havingdemonstrated to herself and her readers thatshe could write novels like The VoyageOut and Night and Day on approvedVictorian models, she has made all hersucceeding novels experiments of varyingdegrees of boldness. Her fastidiousabandonment of plot has necessitated theachievement of pattern by some less obviousmeans. In Jacob's Room, the pattern isthat of a single portrait rendered impres-sionistically ; in Mrs. Dalloway, she wove amaze of personalities around the beguilingbut unconsciously centric figure of herheroine. Even more successful in pattern isTo The Lighthouse, where Mrs. Ramsay,living and dead, is indeed the source of lifeand light to all who encounter her. InOrlando, the unifying idea is the mutationof the English spirit in literature, andThe Waves is developed as a series ofspirals built out of overlapping consciousnesses.But the quest for pattern in Mrs. Woolf snovels is no more fascinating than a study of3io THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINEher style, for, with her, style is as justifiablea medium of experiment as the novel form.The problem is not merely the arduousrefreshening of accepted modes in the useof words, figures, and sentences. The idealis sensitiveness and delicacy of perception,poetic suggestiveness, fluidity, and unremitting freshness. And the result is unequalled stylistic brilliance. The Waves,indeed, is intolerably brilliant; there isnever a familiar phrase or figure on whichthe exhausted mind may rest. There is, asMeredith demonstrated, a brilliance thatdefeats itself, but assuredly such brillianceis more admirable than self-defeated dullness.But if Mrs. Woolf were merely an ex-THOSE long-awaited samples of thecomprehensive examinations appearedon the campus last month. Olderheads about the place, scanning the pages,were impressed with their own lack ofinformation, mildly astonished at how muchthere is to know in this world. Freshmen,most of whom will joust with the tests inJune, were somewhat more complacent.Professor Thurstone finds no necessaryreason for the traditional dullness of examination questions and indicates that theJune tests will include a good many livelyand even amusing questions. Alumni wholike sharp-wit parlor games might try them.The questions cover a wide field offactual information in four fields of study,the biological sciences, the humanities, thephysical sciences and the social sciences, but"thinking and inference, rather than mererote memory," are stressed. All students inthe newly created College division are required, at some time or another, to pass thecomprehensive tests in these four fieldsbut the manner in which they prepare perimenter in the structure and style ofthe novel, her work would interest onlycritics of craftsmanship and aspirants to it.Like the work of any serious writer, Mrs.Woolf s is the rendition of her system ofvalues, the imaginative presentation ofthose elements in human experience mostworth cherishing. And though one getsfrom Mrs Woolf no direct treatmentof social cataclysms or humanitarian reforms, one gets what is, age after age, moreimportant, a stirring and inspiriting senseof the cherishableness of life, of the significance of the personality in itself and inrelation to others, of the all-importance oftender, compassionate, evanescent but priceless love and life.themselves is a matter of personal choice.Two types of questions have been used bythe University's new Board of Examinations, the essay type and the short-answertype. The former is answered by a writtendiscussion of some problem or trend; thelatter by yes-or-no, a check mark, underlining, the identification of a diagram, etc.As one of the new developments underthe Chicago plan the questions were prepared by a separate Board of Examinations,headed by Professor L. L. Thurstone, incooperation with the instructors in thevarious courses, and largely on the suggestions of a staff of examination experts whoattended all the lecture courses and conferences and read all the books recommendedfor first-year students. The content matterof the sample question is based entirely onthe syllabi, lectures and demonstrations ofthe autumn quarter but the form is thatwhich will be used in the finals coveringthe whole year's work.Any student who has been in school forone quarter may take any or all of the ex-By John P. Howe '27NEWS OF THE QUADRANGLES 3"animations, regardless of whether he hasattended the courses, or may postpone taking them. Students who fail in any of thefour fields may try again indefinitely, withthe limitation that a fee of five dollars willbe charged for the first repetition and feeof ten dollars for every subsequent repetition. The examinations will be offeredregularly every June, September and December. Six hours will be allowed for thetest in each of the four fields.The award of the College certificate, normally requiring two years, will be madeafter these four tests have been passed andfurther tests in two of the four fields at thesecond-year level, plus various specific requirements, have been completed.A typical question in the biology section,requiring some knowledge of the variousracial physical types, is as follows :While excavating for a building, workmen found four human skeletons. Thecoroner was called and was confronted bythe problem of determining the identity ofthe skeletons. Records revealed that, adecade before, five persons had disappearedat the same time from the house which hadbeen razed on the site of the discovery.The missing people were the owner ofthe house, his wife, their sixteen year oldson, a Chinese servant, and a Negro servant.The owner and his wife were Germans.The coroner concluded that four of thepeople had been murdered by the fifth person who subsequently left town.Try to identify the skeletons by means ofthe following extracts taken from the descriptions compiled by the coroner. Thenspecify the murderer.Skeleton A: The head is long, narrowand high. The frontal suture is the mostcomplex. The chin is well developed andthere is little forward projection of theface, the supra-orbital ridge and the linionare absent. The third molars are present.Skeleton B: The head is short, broadand high. The most complex suture is theone running along the top of the head fromfront to back. The cheek bones are verywide. The incisors are "shovel-shaped."Skeleton C: The frontal suture is themost complex. The head is long, narrow and high. The supra-orbital ridge is present. The canine teeth are present but thethird molars are absent. The basilar processis not completely fused with the sphenoidbone.Skeleton D: The forehead is vaulted.The bridge of the nose is long and narrow.The lower nasal margins are sharp lines.There is little forward projection of theface. The supra-orbital ridges are wellmarked.Under another biology question the student is asked to spot all the absurditiesin a list of 22 brief statements of fact. Theessay type of question in this section is represented by such questions as, "What is aseed? For what main reasons is it advantageous to the species to incorporate theseed in the life history," ; and "Suppose youfound a fossilized jaw bone of a vertebrate.What characteristics would you look for todetermine whether or not it belonged to amammal?"In the humanities section a typical question is as follows:Suppose the following 17 statements hadbeen presented to the typical educatedEgyptian of the Empire Period (1 600-1 200B.C.) Mark (1) if he would have agreedwith the proposition; (2) if he would havedisagreed; (3) if he would have debatedthe proposition without necessarily agreeingor disagreeing; (4) if he would have found• it meaningless.Murder of a freeman is wrong ; the earthmoves around the sun ; All property holdersmust pay taxes to the government ; naturalism is a possible objective in sculpture;comedy is a superior form of drama totragedy; chemical fertilization of soil isnecessary for continuation of crops. Etc.Another humanities question asks the students to identify which of 24 listed conditions, activities or articles does not describeconditions typical of the Stone Age — carving, bow and arrow, obelisks, sailing vessels,etc. An essay question in this group is,"What political features were common tothe Oriental empires from Egypt to Macedonia?"Under social sciences an essay question is :Comment on the following senatorial312 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINE¦"^W^-ta^i£M ».=l± >^^^ ^^ few *" o553j5M55oH<o&QWw<DQ<a^ jNEWS OF THE QUADRANGLES 3i3statement : "I don't know much about thetariff, but I know this much: When I buya coat that comes from England, I have thecoat and the English have the money. Butwhen I buy a coat that has been made onthis side, we have both the coat and themoney."Another social science question is:Indicate whether the long run of risingprices in the United States increased, decreased or had an indifferent effect on thefollowing: Unemployment; exports, ifprices abroad are constant; burden of national debts to taxpayer ; cost of production ;interest rates; capital invested in enterprises; commissions; nominal wages.One of 22 true-false questions under thephysical sciences is "Water at the temperature of ice is as effective as ice in coolingdrinks such as lemonade." The student isasked to check the truth or falseness of thestatement.* * * *The lack of alarm among the new planstudents is perhaps due to the fact thatthe new plan students are bright. Lastautumn 41,000 freshmen in 152 collegesthroughout the country took the scholasticaptitude tests prepared by Professor Thurstone for the American Council on Education. The median score made by the entiregroup was 147.37. The median score madeby 687 University of Chicago freshmanwas 202.21. This rating placed the University of Chicago fourth among the 152colleges. The three schools which hadbrighter entering groups than our own wereHaverford and Wells, both of which hadclasses of less than 100, and Dartmouth.Many of the better colleges in the countrydid not use the tests, however. Threeother Conference schools reported medianscores as follows: Northwestern University (13th in the ratings) 189.49; University of Michigan, 171.72; and Universityof Illinois, 146.39. During the past fewyears the Chicago group has averaged about180, the jump this year being representedby 22 points.Entrance requirements for the freshmanclass were simplified last year with thestatement that all high school graduates who finished in the upper half of theirclasses were eligible for admission withoutexamination. It has been discovered, however, that this ruling discriminates againstgraduates of the schools with higher scholastic standards. The admissions officehas therefore rated 50 schools in the Chicago area on the basis of aptitude testsgiven their senior classes and will henceforward take into consideration the standing of the school as well as the standingof the individual. All graduates of thehighest rated school who finished in theupper three-quarters of their class mightnow be eligible without examination, forexample, while only those in the upper one-quarter of the class in the lowest ratedschool would be so eligible.*****Here are some evidences of the University's contention that College studentscan use freedom profitably.The first year students, according toPresident Hutchins, are working 25%harder than any previous freshman class.Only three in the group of 750 have beenadvised to leave the University for scholastic reasons.Professor Lemon, in his physical sciencesgeneral course, suggested that all the students take a quiz to keep themselves informed of their progress. He asked fora vote on whether the examinations shouldbe hard or easy. The vote was for a hardexamination.In Professor Coulter's biological sciencesgeneral course a large majority of the students attended extra laboratory sessions,even though they were told that this extrawork would not be reflected in the comprehensive examinations.In Professor Gideonse' social sciencescourse a group of fifty students asked forspecial conference sessions to discuss thebearing of the general principles uponspecific current economic problems.Incidental quizzes in the humanitiescourse, probably the most popular of thefour survey courses, showed that the students performed 10% better than the mostoptimistic predictions made by the variousmembers of the humanities faculty.W$t Untbersttp of CJncago jfflaga?meEditor and Business Manager, Charlton T.

The Ballot isprefaced by a Frank and Fearless Expose!Undergraduate RamblingsBy Rube S. Frodin, Jr., '33A COLUMN such as this presupposesthat alumni are still interested inthe doings of under-graduates. Thebelief is far too common that the typicalundergraduate is just a kid going to school,instead of a young man or woman whoneeds as much training as possible beforetaking a place in the loosely integrated society of the world removed from the college campus.Nothing more need be said about theUniversity of Chicago's new plan. Freshmen who came to the Midway last fallrealize the seriousness with which theymust take their work. The first real testof the plan, both for the student and forthose who have conceived and worked withit, will come in June, when the first comprehensive examinations will be given.Each of the four examinations will be sixhours long.In the Law School a system whereby allexaminations were written anonymouslywas inaugurated and found to be verysatisfactory, according to Dean Harry Bigelow. Students were assigned numbers,which were not compared with the namesuntil after the examinations had beengraded.* * * *Turning to a typical undergraduate activity, one which finds its way into metropolitan papers as a result of administrativeaction, we see — another Phoenix banned.The editor, Orin Tovrov, '32, resigned,and a woman, June Raff, '32, became thenew head of the "Old Bird." The issuewhich was objectionable appeared with afew changes during the month.As spring and the Illinois primaries rolledaround, the campus became politicallyminded — at least with regard to one candidate. An energetic and engaging man oncampus, in fact, Stillman Frankland, thepresident of the Senior class, formed a"Horner for Governor" club, which apparently succeeded in its purpose. He organized a group of faculty members and students into a body which surely musthave meant votes for the man whoreceived the Democratic nomination. Ahuge meeting was held in Mandel Hall withT. V. Smith, Jerome G. Kerwin, WilliamH. Spencer, James Weber Linn, andJudge Horner as speakers.Some time before election day the newscame along that the local Election Committee discovered that some forty University students had fraudulently registeredtheir right to vote. A further investigation into the situation disclosed that oneof the local ward organizations hadpropositioned each fraternity thus : "A Kegof Beer for Twenty Votes." The formulaworked, despite the fact that a good numberof those who turned out to vote didn't havethe age qualification.Campus political factions had their flingat the business of elections when the timecame for choosing the Interfraternity council officers for next year. Victorious in thefray, which saw close voting, were RossWhitney, ^33, Phi Delta Theta, president;Gardner Abbott, '33, Delta Tau Delta,vice-president; Francis Finnegan, SigmaNu y33, secretary; and Dan McGuigan,Alpha Tau Omega, treasurer.Speaking of fraternities, a plea that theUniversity order a moratorium on deferredrushing was sent to the Dean of Students,George A. Works, by the Greek Council,an organization of alumni members of thefraternities on campus. The petition maintained that the straitened financial conditions among fraternities would be partiallyremedied if the University would hold offon the deferred, or Sophomore, rushingsystem which is scheduled to go into effectnext fall. At the time of writing no actionhas been taken.Another indication of student attitudetoward the virtues of an education withoutcompulsion was shown by the results of apoll on the question of compulsory gymheld by The Daily Maroon. Under thepresent faculty ruling it is necessary that a316undergraduate ramblings 317student have six quarters of physical culture credit before he or she can obtain theCollege certificate. Briefly, a student who,under the new plan can conceivably gain acertificate to enter the division in less thantwo years, must spend two years in physicalculture work. The result of the pollshowed that 955 out of 1427 undergraduateswho voted, are in favor of the abolition ofcompulsory gymnasium. The matter waspresented to the executive committee of theCollege faculty.It is with a note of sadness that we writeof the death of a senior in the University.Emmons Riddle, president of the Chicagochapter of Delta Kappa Epsilon, was injured when his motorcyle skidded undera truck on Woodlawn avenue April 14th.He died as a result of gas gangrene atBillings hospital on the 20th. He was abrother of Hugh Riddle, '30.An organization for the purpose of providing immediate, material relief to theminers of Kentucky and other coal areashas found a place on the campus. Somethirty students formed a Bureau forMiners' Relief. The group plans to taketruckloads of food and clothing to Kentucky in June.Under the auspices of the new StudentCommittee on Student Affairs a SocialCommittee has been formed, which willhandle all social affairs during the year 1932-33, and Robert Dodson, '33, Chi Psi,is chairman. Lydabeth Tressler, '33,Esoteric; Robert Balsley, '33, Delta KappaEpsilon; Robert Sharp, '34, Phi Kappa Psi;and Magaret Holohan, '34, Mortar Board,are other members of the committee. BobBalsley, and Maxine Creviston, '33, areco-chairmen of the annual prize scholarshipcompetition for high school students whichwill take place May 20th.The eighth annual Military Ball underthe auspices of Crossed Cannon was givenat the South Shore Country Club on thenight of April 22nd. Robert Garen, '33,Alpha Sigma Phi, and Betty Parker, '32,Wyvern, led one wing, and Keith Parsons,'33, Psi Upsilon, and Jackie Smith, '32,Esoteric, led the other."Shore Acres," a drama of the deepestdye of 1892, was the Dramatic Association's spring revival piece in Mandel HallApril 28th. Pat Magee, '32, Phi Kappa Psi,and Alice Stinnett, '32, Phi Beta Delta, climaxed their four years acting at the University with sterling performances in the play.Blackfriars take the stage May 6th, 7th,13th, and 14th with "Whoa Henry" writtenby Orin Tovrov, '31. A cast of seventeenand a chorus of thirty-two will appear inthis musical comedy of the campus.And last but not least we have the seniormustache race — the results of which will bereported next month.Back to the MidwayJune 10 and 11, 19323i8 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINEA\13O"aB<5saOWilliam V.

The baseball team is a new combination that is not yet certain of itself, butis developing steadily. Practice over northof the field house has gone far enough toraise hopes for next autumn that verge onthe exuberant. In track, however, theChicago team is a negligible quality, dependent upon a few individuals who arequalified for Big Ten competition. Thetennis team will be respectable, althoughoutclassed, and the golf team does not ratevery high.Coach Page apparently has been buildinghis ball team with an eye to next season,when he will have a club that is practicallyintact, including the redoubtable Roy Henshaw. The gaps in the infield have beenplugged with sophomores and juniors, andthe team that is now playing is beginningto gain confidence with experience. Capt.William Olson did not return to collegethis quarter, and his place has been filledsatisfactorily by Ashley Offil, a sophomore.The outstanding freshman so far isJohn Womer, the tackle from Oak Park.Weighing over 190, Womer is remarkablyfast and very aggressive, and is certain tobe a regular next season. Barton Smith,the freshman end from Long Beach, Cal.,is a clever pass catcher, but his blockingneeds developing. Smith has demonstratedreal ability as a punter, and Nelson Nor gren, assistant coach, regards him as thebest the Maroons have had in a decade.Frank Spearing, brother of John Spearing, regular tackle last season, is anotheroutstanding prospect. Spearing, better than190 pounds, is being used at guard. He isthe most improved member of the groupwhich won numerals last autumn. TomFlinn, a 150 pound quarterback from Redwood Falls, Minnesota, is running one ofthe teams. His ability as a punt catcheris an asset that appeals to Coach Stagg.Cecil Storey, another Long Beach product,is playing a great game at fullback, andpromises to be the best man in that positionChicago has had since the days of JohnThomas and Austin McCarty.Walter Maneikis, tackle who was lostbecause he broke an arm just before theseason opened last year, is back this season,weighing 204. He is in line for a regularposition. John Spearing has been kept outof spring practice on the advice of physicians, because a sinus infection has slightlyaffected his heart. It is expected that hewill be able to play, but if he does not,Maneikis will take his place.Keith Parsons, who was slowed up at theend of last season by an attack of influenza,has looked very good in practice. He hasregained all his drive, and has shown somuch speed that he has been worked at endas well as center. If there is a shortageof ends next autumn, Parsons is very likelyto be used as a regular on one of the flanks.3^9320 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINEVinson Sahlin, who stepped in as quarterback in the Illinois game last year and ranthe team with such skill that he won thecommendation of Coach Stagg, is beinggroomed as the regular quarter. The"General" has plenty of fire and is a smarttactician. Warren Bellstrom, a substituteend, has shown some improvement and if hecontinues to develop will solve one of thebig problems facing Mr. Stagg.The new shift play which Coach Stagghas devised seems to be working out well.The "Old Man" had to abandon a somewhat similar shift last season because it wastoo complicated for the players. The present version is somewhat simplified, and thelevel of ability of the players is higher, sothat the play undoubtedly will be the basisof next season's offense.Captains elected for next season: Basketball — Keith Parsons and James Porter (co-captains) ; Swimming — John Marron;Water Polo — Searing East; Wrestling — •Bion Howard. Winners of the "C" :Basketball — Harry Ashley, Paul Stephenson, Kenneth Fraider, Bernard Wien,Louis Schlifke, Scott Rexinger, ByronEvans, Keith Parsons, James Porter;Swimming — Gordon Rittenhouse, RalphEarlandson, James McMahon, John Marron; Gymnastics — Everett Olson, GeorgeWrighte, Luis Alvarez, Sumner Scherubel ;Wrestling — Carl Gabel, John Heide, FredLouis, Burton Sherre; Fencing — GeorgeVan der Hoef.George Mahoney, an outfielder last yearand one of the best hitters, has been broughtin to play second base to replace WillUrban. Claire Johnson, last year's shortstop, is back. There is still some questionabout third, at which Joe Temple, a senior,Ted Decker, sophomore, and James Lewis,junior, have been taking turns. Deckerseems to be in the lead at present, althoughhe kicked a couple of fielding chancesagainst Ohio State. Gene Buzzell, aveteran, John Lynch, a junior who was ineligible last year, and H. O. Page, Jr., arethe regular outfielders, with Pete Zimmer,Harold Wilkins, and Gerald Ratner asreserves.Roy Henshaw pitched the first three college games and looked as good as he didlast season, but he has not been backed upwith the fast support that the 1931 teamgave him. He had no trouble with LakeForest, and should have had none in thefirst game with Notre Dame, in which hestruck out 14 men, walked 2, and allowedbut 6 hits, some of which a good fieldingteam would have stopped. Errors cost thatgame. Henshaw was hit somewhat harderby Ohio State, which got 9 hits, but hestruck out 14 men. His support was improved, and the team got 10 hits, three ofwhich Henshaw himself contributed. Aninth inning rally that produced two runswon the game. The team should be playing good baseball by the middle of May,and if it gets by its early games withoutdefeat, it will be a championship possibility.Right now, uncertain in hitting and a triflewobbly in fielding, the team is not on alevel with that of last season.The track team was snared into a meetwith Michigan State Normal, which has ateam just about as good as the best inthe conference, and the results were sad.John Brooks won the hundred in 0:10.2,against the wind, took the broad jump,under poor conditions, at 23 feet, 6y2 inches,and finished second in a low hurdles racethat was won by Beatty of Normal in0:23.5 with the wind. Brooks missed hisstep on the third hurdle, but came fast tolose by inches. Altogether his performancewas encouraging. Capt. Roy Black wassecond in the high hurdles, which went in0:1 5-3 against the wind. The 120-yarddistance is just a trifle too long for Black,who goes better indoors over a short racebecause of his fast start. Bob Wallace wonthe 220 in o: 21.5, with the wind. GeorgeRichardson, a sophomore who will be running in 4 : 30 before the end of the season,placed third in the mile, but the rest of theperformances were mediocre. George Cameron, who could be a good quarter miler,is not in shape.The tennis team now lines up with PaulStagg, No. 1 ; Herman Ries, a junior, No.2 ; Max Davidson, sophomore, No. 3 ; andLawrence Schmidt, senior, No. 4.

Robert Bohnen, have beenplaying a round-robin for positions. Bohnenshot 155 for 36 holes at Olympia Fields,with 80-75. Paul Smith had 76-83, butwas grouped with Edward Mauerman,Paul Baker, Burton Young, and JackSmucker, all of whom had 168, in the playoff for the three vacant positions.There are at the present time about 45men engaged more or less regularly inspring football practice. Not all of the goodfreshman prospects are reporting, some of them being in other sports and some havingtoo heavy a burden of work. For a timethere was a scarcity of backfield men, whichinterfered with the plans for scrimmage,but Coach Stagg now has enough ballcarriers to run formations. Given normalsuccess in eligibility, the "Old Man" canexpect a first class team next fall. Thepractice has brought five freshmen intoprominence as valuable additions to thenucleus of veterans and also has demonstrated that several of the experiencedplayers will be much improved next autumn.Reunion for RushALUMNI CLINICSThe Clinics of Commencement Week will beheld at Rush Medical College, 1748 West Harrison Street; Presbyterian Hospital, 1753 WestCongress Street; Cook County Hospital, WestHarrison and South Wood Streets; BillingsMemorial Hospital, 950 East 59th Street (SouthSide) ; Chicago Lying-in Hospital, 5841 Maryland Avenue (South Side).
