The U. High boys, with agood, consistent, well, balanced team,piled up a total of 28 1-2 points, anenormous lead over the next twocompetitors, Harvard school andLake Forest, who tied for secondplace with ten points. Oak Parkcame in fourth. with nine points.Campbell of University High, Schobinger of .Harvard school and Ingersoll of Lake Forest academy tiedfor it�dh·idual honors. each gettingtwo firsts. Campbell took the halfmile and the 440. I ngersoll took the100 and the 220. and Schobinger wasfirst in the high hurdles and thepole vault. Schobinger also brokethe on Iy record of the day in thelatter event.Biggest Field Yet.The clay was ideal for a meet.The track was fa�t and the wind waslight. :\ bigger held field than hadever turned out to an Interscholasticcame out yesterday. Thirty-sevenschools took points in the events ofthe day. all of which were hotly contested.The only record of the day thatwent down was in the pole vault,when Schobinger of Harvard went 11feet i 1-2 inches. half an inch betterthan the former record made by him:,cli last year. He tried to negotiatea higher di�tance. but failed. Culp0i Lake wa .. :-'ec011<1. "Eddie" Thom- as of Hyde Park was third and Rubel of Louisville was fourth.880- Yard Run First.The two races of the half-milewere the first run off. I n the firstrace O'Connell of Madison and Tateof Englewood put up a thrilling fin-ish. They came around the firstturn of the second lap neck and neck.As they turned down the stretchO'Connell pulled ahead a little andTate was unable to catch him. Thebleachers pulled hard for Northup ofU. High" but-he was unable to catchthe first two men. Campbell of U.High had an easy time winning thesecond race. There was a hard fightfor second place between Harvey of,\V.est Aurora and Drevenstedt ofLouisville. H arvey won out hy anarrow margin.The 1oo-yard dash was a bitterfight, four or five men being buncheduntil Ingersoll of Lake Forest darted ahead at the tape. Koeningsdorfof Kansas City Manual Training.\Valker of Highland Park andPhelps of Oak Park, followed closetogether.Schobinger of the Harvard Schoolwas easily the best of the held inthe high hurdles. He finished pulledup in the fast time of 15 :4-5 seconds. I f he had been pushed hewould probably have equalled theI nterscholasric record of 15 :3-5,made by Schnur of Lake Forest in1907.Ingersoll made it two firsts whenhe led all the way in the 220. Histime was 0:22:3·5 second:; and his work made Director Stagg and theuniversity athletes open their eyes.He is believed to have great possibilities. Walker of Deerfield Township, Phelps of Oak Park and Knightof U. High got the other three places.The only fight in the mile was forsecond, third and fourth. Redfernof West Des Moines ran a beautifulrace and finished almost half a lapin front of Waage of Lane Technical, Osborn of Coldwater, Mich.,and Fergusori of Mechanicsville, Ia.,The time was 4:35 3-5.Byrd Is Beaten.One of the big surprises of themeet was the defeat of Byrd 'of Milford in his pet event, the discus.Mucks, the winner, brought Oshkoshinto the point column by his throwof 124 feet. He beat Byrd by justfive feet. Byrd did not seem to bein form.Wahl of South Division repeated hisperformance at last year's meet byagain winning the high jump.; His,'jump -of 5, feet" 10 1-2 inches was 3-8 .of an inch short of the Interscholastic. record. He tried at the record,but failed. Emerson of Oregon, 111.,and Loomis 'of U. High tied for second.. 'The closest races of the day camein the quarter. Spurred on by theas Campbell.

VARSITY G�lDIRON ELEVENLAST YEAR AND NEXTBY "WALLIE" STEFFEN, ALL-AMERICAN QUARTERUnder the leadership of "Pat" Pageour football team continued to uphold the high reputation that has always attached itself to Chicagoteams. At the beginning of the season our prospects were anything butbright. As usual the "Old Man's material was limited but not in the leastdiscouraging and within ten days heso whipped the team into shape as toadminister a crushing defeat to thePurdue aggregation. Most of themen on the team were playing theirfirst college game, and the results ofthis contest were watched with interest. A score of 40 to 0 demonstrated that these men had beentaught their lesson and had learnedit thoroughly.\Vith this game as a proof that wehad a good chance, the "Old Man"started out to prepare the team 'forthe strong Indiana eleven. The Hoosiers had an unusually good teamlast fall, as is shown by the fact thatthey were just barely beaten by Illinois, and lost the Wisconsin gameon a fluke. However, they could notcope with the clever playing of Page'smen and easily went down in defeatby a score of 21 to O.Illinois Next.Our next game was with our oldrival, Illinois. The down-state aggregation wa" s strong, and althoughPage's men went to the field withinstructions to playa defensive gameand to roll up just enough points towin, it looked for a while as if Illinois was destined to win its first victory in years. But the crafty Maroon eleven was too much for theOrange and Blue, and again Chicagotriumphed. Although the score was14 to 8, it does not show the relativestrength of the two teams.The crucial game of the seasoncame when the Maroon warriorswent up to Minnesota to play for theConference Championship. TheGophers had a wonderful team, withstrength, skill and courage. Duringthe two weeks preceding this gamethe team was sent through severalhard scrimmages in which we hadthe ill-fortune to have a number ofour men hurt. Page, Kassulker,auer, and Sunderland were all forcedinto the game because we had noone else to take their place. I t isneedless to say that these men played up to their limit, but none of themdid just ice to themselves because oftheir poor physical condition. Although the. team fought valiantly, and put forth every ounce ofstrength that they were capable of,we were defeated. Minnesota gained20 points to our 6. Still the scorehardly shows the relative merits ofthe two teams.Cornell TiedReturning home and with a week'shard practice, M 1. Stagg took theteam down to Ithaca to play our firstg-ame for years in Eastern territory.It was a great game, and we surprised all the followers of the dopesheet by playing the Big Red teamto. a tie. Not only was the game atie, but Chicago outplayed Cornell inevery department of the game. Thefight and grit shown by our menwhen they made that great. stand insiue the, two-yard line won a warmplace in the hearts of the Cornellrooters. When the ball finally wentover after .the Cornell backs hadvainly endeavored to gain the covetedtwo yards, every man in the Cornellhleachers got up and cheered for theChicago team. It is that redoubtablefighting spirit that characterizes every Chicago team, and there is noschool in the country that does notboth respect and fear it.The season' was brought to a closewith the game against Wisconsin. Itwas perhaps the best contested gameof the season, and although bothteams fought to their limit neitherwas able to beat the other, and whenthe last whistle was blown the scorestood: Chicago, 6; Wisconsin, 6.Page's Last Game.Of all the men who ever represented Chicago on her athletic teams, noman has ever shown the grit -andfighting' spirit put forth by that quiet,shy little captain-"Pat" Page. Whenit will be remembered that he wasmade end on the All-Western in 1908and everybody predicted a still greater future for him in that 'position thisyear, that he unselfishly sacrificed hisown personal glory for the good ofhis team by playing quarterback, aposition which was entirely new tohim. His playing- was, remarkable,especially when you consider that· hewas playing the position 'for the firsttime. In summing up' the career 0,this plucky little player, 'too m�chpraise cannot be showered upon him,and he. has easily earned the right tobe classed with such greaCpTayers asEckersall, Herschberger, .Steffen andHeston.����������---�CHICAGO A D.ELIGiH{tFU!LPLACE IN SUMMER"If you can't afford to take a regular vacation this summer, the nextbest thing is to take a summercourse at the University."

The baseball team of 1910is no exception to this precedent.Handicapped early in the game byserious injuries to three of the starplayers, seemingly pursued by aXemesis of misfortune, neverthelessthe Varsity played brilliantly in every contest, . and ended the seasonhigh in the Conference standing.Fortune smiled on the team in thepre-schedule games, and prospectswere bright when Chicago went toMadison on April 20 to open the interscholastic season with \Visconsin.Chicago did win a decisive victory,5 to 3, but the winning proved verycostly, for it disabled two of the mostvaluable men on the lineup, Capt.Pegues and Collings.But throughout the gloomy daysCoach Stagg said nothing and sawedwood, and continued to put the squadthrough a three-hour drill. The cripples finally came back. and the teamsprang again into the top ranks ofConference contenders. To celebratethe revival, Northwestern was drubbed May 10 by a 6 to 3 score.After a farcical victory over thePhysicians and Surgeons on May 12,Chicago journeyed to Champaign twodays later and was barely defeatedby Illinois, 2' to 1. Both teams played evenly in all departments and thegame was anybody's to the ninth inning. Then followed a string of victories. With Roberts at the helm,Chicago whitewashed Northwestern 3to 0 on May 18. Wisconsin camehere May 24 and proved an easy second i� a good contest. The last triumph was m-er :Minnesota on Marshall field May 24. The Gopherswere blanked 3 to 0, and the doughty"Pat" Page gave the �[innesota batters no show with the willow .Chicago lost the last of a threegame series to Illinois in a battleto which they were entitled to asmuch honor as the victors. The gamewas the most magnificent basehallbattle. seen in the West for many ayear .. At nine innings it was a 1 t" 1tie. and for seventeen innings thefierce struggle progressed.

For two years this indomitable 'southpaw has twirled theVarsity to many a hard-earned victory, and by his premier work earnedthe reputation of being among thefew best pitchers in the western universities.

In the out.field the team was ably representedhy Collings, Cleary, Baird, Kassulkerand Latham. �Although the team suffers by theloss of Page, Pegues and Cleary, theprospects for a winnixg nine nextyear are as luminous could possiblybe hoped for.

Thescore made the rooters nervous, butChicago followed Illinois' plan andcame in strong in the last event, winning 64 to 62. I t was close, but it The 1910 basketball season returnedChicago champion of the West for thethird consecutive year. The Maroonathletes forged to the front winnersafter an exceedingly tight finish inwhich the llinnesota, Illinois and Chicago fought to the last ditch for thehonors. Complications in the Eastmade impossible an intersectionalmatch to determine the national collegiate championship, which had beenwon by Chicago the previous yearirom Pe nnsylvania.The team started the 1910 seasonwithout Georgen and Schommer ofthe 1910 team. Georgen had beenpicked for the AII- Western team atforward and Schommer was the almost universal pick of the critics forthe center position. The gaps in theteam were ably filled, however, byKellv at forward, substitute on the1909 -team; Sauer at forward of the lastyear's Freshman team; Hubble at center, last year's understudy to Schommer and Edwards of the Freshmenat center.The -scason started immediatelyafter the opening of the Winter quarter and a hard schedule was announced as follows:Tan. 15-�orthwestern at Chicago.jan. 21-Indiana at Chicago.Jan. 25-�orthwestern at Evanston.Feb. 5-Purdue at Chicago.Feb.

Twofull teams were put into the game including Captain Hoffman, Page, Boyleand Fulkerson at guards; Hubble andSauer at center and Clark, Kelly, Edwards and Goldstein at forwards.The score was 31 to 4. Indiana waseasy for the second game, 50 to 12,and the third struggle was at Northwestern's expense for a second time,44 to 6. .Purdue was the next team onthe schedule and a hard game was predicted. The Boilermakers visited Chicago but left after getting the shortend of a 30 to 19 score. Chicagoplayed rings around their opponentsand left fo rChampaign full of confidence to meet the Hlini.The I1Iini succumbed to the vigorous onslaught of Chicago's undefeatedsquad.Then Coach Raycroft and his menjourneyed down to llinnepolis fortheir first .contest with the scrappy Gophers. They came back with thelead in the conference race but hadlost the first basketball game for Chicag o in two years. The lIaroons lost15 to 10 through the air-tight playingof the :\lil1l:esota guards and the inability of Chicago to put the b:.11 intothe basket on free throws. After thegame the men put in a hard period ofpractice and left for Purdue to meetthe Boilermakers on February 18. Purdue gave Chicago a good scrap hutfell, 26 to 17.

Thedopsters figured that the teams werewell balanced, and were right. Chicago lead at the start, and, as theevents went by, for a time it seemedas if they would run away from theiropponents. Rut Illinois' strength inthe field events came to their relief.Chicago was one point ahead whenthe last event was called, the broadjump. I llinois took everything insight and the meet was lost.Wisconsin came next. They hadThe year just past has been one ofups and downs for the University. track team. Perhaps those pessimistically inclined would say that thedowns have been in the excess, butthe more cheerful believe that theyhave good cause to feel that mattersvery nearly struck a balance. Although the· season brought to Chicago a defeat in the VI estern Conference championship, yet the performances of several of the athletes demonstrated that the Maroon team hadgood right to a claim of high caliber.The chief cause for the unsuccessful parts of the season was the smallnumber of men available. The student body seemed to be particularlydevoid of men who could develop into track athletes. The inevitable result was that when accident crippledone or more of the stars it was absolutely impossible to fill the resultinggap. While the hard luck which theteam suffered might not have beenactually any greater than befell otherteams in the past, it was proportionately far more effective in cutting into the team's chances.The indoor season was a dead heat.In the first dual contest at Champaign, Illinois, triumphed by a scoreof 52 2-3 to 33 1-3. Three weeks later, on the Bartlett track, Chicagoevened matters up by a victory withthe score of 52 1-2 to 33 1-2, almostan exact reversal of the score. Therelay tea rnthen proceded to add tothe collection of trophies by triumphing at Wisconsin and at Omaha. Inboth cases the team was weakenedby the absence of its best man, Davenport, who had injured his leg in thesecond Illinois meet.\Vhen the men came outdoors, thefirst thought was of Pennsylvania. Inspite of the threatened strength ofMichigan, it seemed impossible toforecast a defeat for the Maroons after their victory with a weaker teamthe year before. But, unfortunately,Davenport was called home by thesickness of his mother, and, althoughhe returned in time to run, he wasnot in condition to put up the race hewould have been capable of. This,with a little hard luck at the start,contrived to shove Chicago intofourth place.The next on the program was Illinois. The men worked hard in hopes�f settling the supremacy left doubtful by the indoor season, and of re- was a win.The Conference looked robe anybody's meet. Chicago was beyondall doubt among those to be taken into account. With a sure 10 points inOscar WorthwineDavenport. they had rather more tostart with than any of the others. Sothe rooters were hopeful. It was agreat meet. I t was too bad that itcould not have been held on Marshallfield, but the fact remains that it wasthe greatest of all the ten meets thathave been held- Chicago did not win.But it furnished the man whose running was the feature of the meet.Davenport, by breaking two records,showed himself to be the greatestrunner of the west.Capt. Phil Comstock.beaten Illinois by a close score andhad swamped Minnesota. Still Chicago had hopes. But they weredoomed to disappointment. Wisconsin may have had in mind the dayChicago ran up more..than 100 pointson them; they may have mistaken usfor Minnesota. At any rate, whenthe rain resumed in time to spoil theball �game, the score stood 8(ho 46 infavor of the Cardinal.Purdue closed the dual meet sea- . The problem now is what will happen next year. No one can tell. Chicago loses but three of this year'spoint winners, \Vorthwine. Whipp andFishbein, who have completed theirlast year.' The gain from the Freshmen would seem to more than balance the loss. Crawley and Reed inthe -long distances; Donovan, Skinner and Springer in the middle distances; Kuh in the hurdles and broadjump; Hales. Young awl Wilson inthe weights have all shown ability.Kuh's jump of over 22 feet in the Illinois Freshman meet promises thatnext year will net make this eventsuch a tower of strength to the otherteams as it has been in the past twoseasons.

JUNE 11. 1910.4Buildings and Grounds ofThe University of ChicagoTheXo American University-for that 'matter, no university in the worldhas experienced a more phenomenally rapid growth than the Uuiver-s ity of Chicago. Founded in 1892,it has come within the short spaceof eighteen years to the foremostrank of American colleges, and eventhe most sanguine hardly dare toprophesy the condition of the university eighteen years hence. Another decade will unquestionahly seedeveloprnents of the most marvelloussort for. unless the onward stride ofthe institution be interfered with insome wholly unexpected manner, theUniver-sity of Chicago will presentlyrank not merely among the first-itwill be, the undisputed leader of ourgreat educational institutions.In no respect has the spirit of advancement been more noticeable thanin the erection of a group of Gothicbuilding's whose beauty and symmetry is hardly surpassed by anyUniversity structures in the country.The L�ni�'ersity campus was originally designed by a group of artists ofworld reputation and the plans whichthey formulated have been faithfullyadhered to. Within a few years thecampus will he enclosed like the Oxford quadrangles. and an importantstep in this direction has been thebuilding of the new Harper Memorial Library which faces on the Midway and is to form a large part of theSouthern barrier. .The X orthern portion of the campus has already been completed andhere the most notable examples ofour Univer-sity archtecture are to befound. From Snell and HitchcockHalls on the \Vest to Mandel Hallon the Eastern end of the campusthere is not one unsightly or disproportioned' feature to mar the beautyof the whole. The northeastern corner contains the buildings known asthe Tower group. This group includes the Leon Mandel AssemblyHall, th� Reynolds Club, HutchinsonHall, and Mitchell Tower. West oithese are the four buildings of theHull Lahoratory group, and adjoining these the two men's dormitories.The northern portion of the campus forms the social . center for themen. The Reynolds Club, with itsspacious reading room, its bowlingalley, and the billiard room is the"hanging out" place for all the menof the University, and HutchinsonHall. which is west of the MitchellTower, contains the Men's Commonsand also several private dining roomswhich are utilized by various University organizations for banquetsand suppers, Leon Mandel Assembly Hall is at present the only auditorium on the campus which willhold an audience of large proportions, At present the various chapelservices are held here, but the practice is to be only temporary. and itis planned to transfer the chapel ser- morial Library.Architecturally considered. theHarper Memorial Library will be ofexceptional beauty. The two extremities of the building will be surmounted by towers 12S feet inheight. The decoration of the building. both exterior and interior, willbe of unusual attractiveness, and willeclipse anything which has beenhitherto erected on the campus.. The Midway BeautifulFollowing in the wake of the improvement of the Midway uy theHarper Memorial library comes thebeautification of the Plaisance itself,which has been for a long time contemplated by the board of SouthPark Commissioners, The architectof the scheme now contemplated isr .orado Taft. I t has always been theintention to fill in the sunken gardens of the Midway with water andform a continuous lagoon connectingthe "Mere" of \Vashington Park withthe lagoons of Jackson Park. Thislagoon will be crossed in three pointsby bridges which are to be known respectively as the "Bridge of Sciences," "Bridge of Art," and "Bridgeof Faiths." At either end of �he la-vices at some future time to the University Chapel SOOI1 to be built inthe quadrangles south of the Towerbuildings. Mandel Hall is also usedfor the winter performances of theDramatic Club, the comic opera given Hitchcock and the men of Snell .Snell Hall however controls not onlyits own electric lighting system butthat of Hitchcock als J. and one ofthe first steps taken by the Snell-itesafter the declaration of war is the of the campus.The' central portion of the quad.rangle is not yet built up, Kent .. ndRyerson laboratories being the onlybuildings of the originally intendedgroup which have so far been completed. The open space of the' campus has been planted with trees, andin the course of a few more years weshall have our campus well shaded.At present the insignificance of thetrees seems to be the one thing lacking to perfect the appearance of thecampus-the growth of trees is athing not to be hastened-and it willbe some' years before our campusgrove will be able to match the majestic elms of New Haven,Library a Masterpiece.The Harper Memorial Library,now in construction will be. when finished, the most attractive building ofthe group. I t is now well under construction and the cornerstone is tohe laid at the Convocation exercisesnext Tuesday.

Korth Hall forms oneof the divinity group south of Cobbhall at the southwestern corner ofthe campus, These three dormitories were originally intended forthe use of Divinity students exclusively, but gradually a number of "laybrothers" have begun to creep in until now the dormitories no longerhouse an exclusively Divinity schoolpopulation. The inhabitants of North,Middle D, and South D, have alwayshowever preserved a somewhat staidand circumspect character.

Here theI nformation office is located and theoffices of most of the deans. Thecorridor of Cobb is the greatestmeeting place for all the students ofthe L"nh'ersity and from 10:30 to 11every morning it is filled with people en route from one class to another who seize the opportunity todiscuss University affairs and keepin touch with what is going on.East of Cobh Hall is HaskellOriental Museum. which contains theoffices of the president and the divinity school libraries.

SATURDAY, JUNE II, 1910. 5CLASS AND OTHER SO.CIAL ACTlVITIESRegardless of the honor-point system, still a current topic in criticaldscussions, the newness of the original class system instigated last falland Chicago's generous share of unpleasant weather during the past season, social affairs on the campushave been numerous and successfulbeyond the possible dream of any ac,th'e undergraduate or college fusser of years past. It is now safe topresume that the cry, "Students of acity university only meet each otherat the football games or in the downtown ,theatres," will no longer beechoed from institution to institutionas characteristic of our college life.Of course ths accusation has alwaysbeen grounds hut until reently allefforts to hush t have proved of noavail. To adequately describe thefunctions of the different classes, fraternities, societies or students as awhole would produc evidence strongenough to override all such false pre- .judices.The New System the Cause.Probably the new cless system isresponsible for the present satifactory conditions. A change in the oldsystem was deemed desirable for thepurpose of holding the members ofthe classs together and furtheringthe general college spirit. It is withno small degree of pride on the part council consists of four studentselected for one year from the LowerSenior division, three from the Upper Junior division and three fromthe Lower unior division. By virtueof his office, the president of eachclass shall be a member of the COUllcil. Each division has a president,a secretary and a treasurer, nominated and elected in accordance withthe regulations promulgated by thecouncil. Thes-e elections occur inFebruary, which is also the cimethat the I:CW councilors take theiroffice.Success of the Prom.One of the first important worksof the council this year was to setthe Senior prom preparations going.The boundless success that this affairproved to be, was directly tracedback to the efforts of the council.On the evening of February 21 and'morning of February 22. the mostof all 0 rrthe long line of similar functions in the history of the Universitytook place in Bantlett. This one wascalled the Seventeenth Annual Washington Promenade, as named by thecouncil. Josiah J. Pegues and �Iissessie Heckman; Ralph Cleary and�Iiss Beth Fogg were the selectedleaders, who chose the course andset the pace for the gaily attired as-, ....of all that had a hand in its makingthat this new class system, originalin many respects, has proved so successful a1 the first trial. Early in thefall quarter, President Judson appointed a commission consisting ofJ. R. Angell, Chairman. H. E.Slaughf, . J. Pegues, W. P. Henry,Edith Prindiville, • E. Dymond andR. ,W� Baird, to consider the organization of the 9tUdent body. Thiscommission met and after iong deliberation drew up a plan and sub':'mitted it ;to the President. It wasread in chapel and published in TheDaily Maroon in order that everystudent in the University might become 'thoroughly familiar with itsprovisions before it shold be put to avote. On November 24, 1909, the entire undergraduate student body ofthe University met in Mandel andadopted t11is new system with anand undetailed explanation of this sofa,r_· exceedingly effective system follows:The Plan in Brief.The undergraduate student body isdivided into four divisions. knownSeniors, Upper and Lower' Juniors.A student to be classified as a mcmber of the Upper Senior divisionmust have at least 27 majors towardsgraduation at the beginning of theautumn quarter; to be clas sificd as aLower Senior, 18 to 26!� majors. inclusive ; to he classified as an UpperJunior, 9 to 17�-:l majors and to bf:classified as a Lower Junior. lessthan 9 majors. These divisions correspond to Senior. Junior. Sophomore and Fershman, HO"'cvcr,-stutients may petition the studer4tcouncil at the rtime of the annualclassification to be clas sified in adivision other than the one in whichtheir majors of crcidt entitle them tobe classified. The student council,which this system provides for. usesits own discretion in such cases.The membership of the student sembly as they meandered throughthe novel filiares of the grand march.In a midnight edition of The DailyMaroon for the occasion, the following description of the decorative designs was published:"A network of branches and vinesformed a canopy over the heads of:the promenaders, while the railing ofthe running track was hung withlarge wreaths of leaves, green andtinged with autumn tints.

Sincethe Interclass-Hop is prescribed tobe an informal-formal, the expense tothe affair is less than would be to aJunior Prom. Decrease the expenseand you increase the attendance, is:111 axiom. Under the new class system. furthermore, it seemed to be thegeneral s entimcnt of the Studentbody to make the Senior Prom or theWashington Prom as it i s now calledthe largest social event of the year.The consuls acted accordingly. andwith this view in mind, substitutedThe Settlement DanceWhile the Senior Prom has alwaysbeen and naturally is the "biggestthing" in the society of univer-sities,the Univer siry of Chcago Sett lernentbenefit dance on February 4, 1910,drew the largest crowd that has eyerassembled in the Bartlett at a socialfunction. 1600 tickets were sold andalmost the same number attended.The old as well as the young enjoyed this social affair in a hilariousmariner too surprising to explain. Thrwives of the professors were again asthey had been girls and the aged menalumni entered into the whirl with allthe enthusiasm of their past youth.The Settlement dance is an annualaffair in the winter quarter.

' "To laugh. to jestIs best of life."The most interesting phase of college life to the student of the preparatory and high school who is about toenter university, is that which dealsnot with books and classes but withthose social activities that form thebulk of the happy college memoriesalways called to life hy the after-dinner speaker at class reunions. )Jenwho have come to Chicago .for theinterscholastic meet will hear muchabout the Blackfriars and their plays,because this origanization means somuch as polliative for the seriousefforts in bibrary and laboratory.The year around we hear Blackfriar talk; talk in the Autumn Quarterabout the unwritten play; talk in theWinter Quarter about the merits ofthe play that has been selected, andthe possibilities of the cast and chorus;bombastic talk in the Spring Quarterabout the unexcelled book of theopera. .the unmatched costumes ofthe characters, the stupendous business ability of the business managerand his staff, and the enormous grandtotal of revenue about to be derivedfrom the three nights of opera. Theplay is distinctly not a serious effortnor intended to be, but as a meansfor getting men acquainted with eachother, and forming those fast friendships which Iive in after days, aswell as for extending the interestsof the individual beyond the boundaries of his own clique. the Blackfriar opera has been found to be themost successful of similar devices.Order Began in 1904 •The Blackfriar organization dateshack to 1904. when it was formed bysome half-dozen undergraduates witha view to presenting a college comicopera with none hut men in the cast.TJ'e first abbott was Frank R. Adams,.who shortly thereafter won local distinction as a writer of professionalIlw .. ical comedies. The first play was"The Passing (If Pahli Khan." followed hy "The King's KalendarKeeper" in' 1905. and "The Rushing, ....j, " : �:�l'.,..'Co, �..: .: ; :r e :, .'. '-'. �'I" .I....:iIr .f;,e� ,�I:1Ii EVERY INTfR8CHOLASTICATHLETEWILL TELL YOU THAT� OLYMPIC THEATR,IS THE BEST PLAY :"':.;0THEFORTUNE HUNTER" of Raxes" in 1906. All three playsfollowed in a measure the tendencyof musical comedy of their years, andin addition introduced clever localsatire and wit directed at campus celebrities. "The Rushing of Raxes"was both local and Egyptian. Thefourth opera, "Sure Enough Segregation." in 1907, was entirely local incharacter, while the 1908 play, "TheSign of the Double Eagle," had itsevents take place in Bonn, Germany.In 1909 the Blackfriar authors cameback to Illinois and used a houseparty not far distanct from the University for their setting, while the1910 play, "The Pseudo-Suffragettes,"used the campus of the University,even representing the Midway as itwill appear in 1930 as a background.All Blackfriar plays a,re characterized by topical songs satirizing college life in general. by musical numbers of more ambitious aim, as wellas songs suitable for football gamesand track meets. Some of the songshave survived. and others lie buriedin the Blackfriar bookcase. The publication of music was begun in 1907.J n the last three years completescores have been published. with theresult that the music has becomeknown wherever college men gather.Scurce of Annual Merriment.I n the past the dances of theFriars have always been a source ofmuch merriment. and as all parts aretaken by men. the impersonation ofchorus girls by undergraduates whoplay on the football team as a sideline and throw the hammer overBartlett gym every morning beforebreakfast has been most interestingto the audiences.I n spite of these difficulties thecoach has been able to produce almost ladylike results. I n the matterof the cast the female impersonations have been most successful. The contempories of Weddell and Spencestill point to their matchless makeup,but it is hard to believe that they excelled the remarkable results produced in the case of Beach, Parkerand Merrill in this year's Blackfriarplay. Benzies, who played in 1908and 1909, was also an excellent impersonator of female roles. Comparisons with other plays lead theBlackfriars to believe that they haveproduced "girls" more true to lifethan any organization of this kind.Wirhin the last four years theBlackfr'iar competition has requiredcomplete plays toi be submitted bythe composers arid authors. This isgenerally done in the Autumn Quartcr. During January the committee incharge gets together and decideswhich group of authors it will beeasier to oslerize and which had better be lifted into the limelight ofUniversity publicity. When the playhas been chosen a business manageris selected. and cast and chorus begin work under the direction of acompetent professional coach. Theplay is generally presented in May.After the play 28 men are mademembers of the order at a banquetheld early in June.Hard Work Needed.Xearly everyone who believesthere is more to college than a, PhiBeta Kappa key and a general -surplus of honor points. aspires sometime in his college career to becomea member of the Blackfriars, One ofthe creditable features of the organization is the fact that no one canbecome a member without havingserved an apprenticeship demandingconsiderable hard work. Every member either has taken part in the castor chorus or helped write a play,There is no other way of gaining acowl.- -That ClassyShopFOR THE MEN :cIIif..63rd AND ELLIS AVENUE The Nobbiest of the NelV Stra-wHats are HereStraw hats with the very lateststyle of brim, crown and band,and in all the favorite braidsfamous makes at not more th�nothers cost: . $1 to $4.rant Floor.
