It 15with this point of view thatThe Daily Maroon has-perhaps tothe point of boring some of its read­ers-continually harped upon the sub­ject of rooting at football games.There were, however, several factsbrought out in the Illinois gamewhich need consideration and remedy­ing.First, there was the lack of unitywhich, more than 'any one thing. hasoften hampered successful Chicagocheering. This, it seems. is due to alack of a well worked out system onthe part of the cheer leaders. In con­trast to the "team work" of the Illi­nois supporters due to concerted ac­tion of the yell leaders. the- cheeringof the Maroon adherents was disor­ganized and without unity, which alsowas due to th� cheer leaders. Insteadof a system by 'Which one leader as­signed to each stand would lead hisstand at the same time, each workedseparately. Thus, instead of all theMaroon bleachers yetting the sameyell at the same time, at no time didtwo sections yell together.It was for this reason that the root­ing of Chicago students was not bet­ter than it was. The spirit was allthere, The' means of using it to itsfullest advantage were lacking. Thisis a fault <which can easily be reme­died. however. A definite plan on thepart of cheer ·leaders before a game isall that is necessary.Another improvement which wouldbe beneficial is the establishment ofan alumni section next to the studentbleachers. At last week's game therewere hundreds of alumni scatteredover the bleachers, Naturally no manwill go through the intricacies of acollege yell when surrounded by acrowd of strangers. It is the princi­ple of mob psychology which alonemakes rooting possible. If alumniwere seated together near the stu­dents the volume of cheering wouldbe swelled just so much more. as theiris the same loyalty to Chicago in thealumni as there is in every undergrad­uate.

An­other innovation that is 'expected toaffect alumni Favorably is the reduc­tion of the subscription price from $2to $1. provided all subscriptions arepaid in advance,The first number under the newagreement will he issued in the nexttwo weeks. The organization of theeditorial office remains the same, theonly change this year being that theAlumni council has taken over its su­pervision from the College Alumni as­sociation, as it represents a largeralumni interest.

The idea was to equalize'he advantage which men have in get­ting entrance credit for shop workand drawing. . The present ruling isthat not more than two credits 'Wouldbe allowed for shop work and draw­ing and none at all for domestic sci­ence. The reason for the new sugges­tion was that the work of this sort isalways uneven and somewhat irregu­lar, as it is never taught similarly atany two schools. However, now thatthe University has such all extensivecourse of domestic science itself,there will be adequate means for ex­amining the ability of the studentswho desire advance credit in thisbranch, should the senate act on thesuggestion made Saturday.Credit would be granted for thiswork by special examination, just asit has been for drawing and shopwork., provided the total amount doesi1('� exceed two units. That is, stu­c:l�nts will be allowed one unit fordomestic science and one for draw­ing, but the total must not exceed twounits.Frozen Arts HIGH CLASSFURS.............c.

Some of thebest friends of the American collegehave made extremely severe criticisms,and even prominent univcrs ity presi­dents. like Wilson of Princeton andEliot of Harvard, have either directlyor indirectly lent the great weight oftheir influence to the dissemination ota notion that somehow or other ourinsitutions of higher learning are ina bad way.Colleges Advanced."I have no hesitation whatever insaying that the American college oftoday and the American university oftoday arc as far ahead of the institu­tions with the same names of 75 and50 and even 35 years ago in the Unit­ed States as our modern steam engineis superior to the steam engine oftlose days, or our modern thresherand rca per to the embryonic speci­mens of the same machines known toour ancestors."The average student of today atHarvard, at Pennsylvania, at North­western and Illinois is a distinct im­provement upon the average studentin tho s e same institutions 35 yearsago. 'I'he most common complaint isperhaps that extravagance, dissipationand c()ncentr�tion o(interest h1 trivialor relatively unimportant things arecharacteristic of· the college today toa degree which was not true a gen­eration ago. I have no hesitation insaying that in spite of the increasingluxury in some of our larger institu­tions, the average college student oftoday has a keener intellectual inter­est, he is less dissipated, he is moreinterested than were we men of thisgeneration when we were in collegegetting our training. Even Princetonand Harvard, as bad as 1hey may be,are better than they were in the six­ties. I have asked a number of menwho have taken their course at Prince­ton and Harvard in the .latter part ofthe sixties and seventies, and whohave since sent their sons through thesame institutions, whether in theiropinions Princeton or Harvard werebetter or worse places for their sonsthan they were' for them, and withone exception the uniform answer hasbeen. 'They are better institutions to­day. and they have done better thingsfor my �n than they did for me.'More Improvement Than Churches."In my opinion the colleges and uni­versities, in a word, the higher in­stitutions of education in the UnitedStates, have made vastly greater im­provements in the last 40 yearsthan the church, than the government,either in" its local or federal form. oreven in business in certain directions.The growing dissatisfaction of theAmerican people with mean standardsin business, religion or scholarship,has been largely occasioned by theleaven set to work in the mass of theAmerican people by this ever increas­ing tide of graduates which our Am­erican institutions of higher learningare turning out."The very best answer to all thismultiform attack and the evidence asto how the American people. down inthe bottom of the national heart, feel Popular Students Took ExaminationsYesterday-Mias Treudley Can­didate for Scholarship.•.••.• DAy AND NIGHT SCHOOL ••••Winston Henry and Edwin P.
