Vol. 20. ATTEND THE SING TONIGHTWi)t Batlp JWaroonNo. 64. UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO, WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY I, 1922 _price 5 Cents“NORGIE” CHANGESMAROON LINE-UPFOR ILLINI GAMECapt. Halladay Shifted To aForward—Romney Nowat Guard JobVARSITY DEFENSE DRILLEDIn an effort to strengthen the Vars-ily’s defense, which in the second hairof the Minnesota game was woefullyweak, Coach Norgren has made a rad¬ical switch in his line-up. Capt. Hal¬laday, who for two years has operatedat the center position, will move to aforward job, with “Mitt” Romneyshifting to one of the guard jobs.Either Yardley or Hurlburt will bestationed at the center job left vacantby llalladay’.s shifting positions“Bill” McGuire will continue to playat a guard post, with both Stahr andDickson available for the duty at theother forward.Maroons Weak In GuardingIn the second half of the Gophergame Hanson, the giant center, ran jwild, and, with no one watching him,tossed three baskets in rapid succession. Later he contributed anotherbucket to the Minnesota total. Hisbrilliant performance was due mainlyto the fact that he was not closelyguarded, and “Norgie” is making theshift in his line-up in the hopes thatcloser guarding will result.Coach Norgren is drilling bothYardley and Hurlburt in the tinepoints of the center game, and is con¬tinually impressing upon the men thevalue of “following their man. ’ Itis expected that both Yardley andHurlburt will operate at centeragainst the Illini • Saturday so that“Norgie” can get a good line on theirrespective abilities at the new posi¬tion.Meet Illinois NextCoach Winter’s Illini quintet per¬forms here against Ihe Varsity Satur¬day, and the Maroons are giimly de¬termined to give the downstaters thefight of their lives. Illinois has aclassy five, which has been cuttingfancy capers in the Big Ten race sofar, but inasmuch as the Maroonshave won all of their home games todate, they have hopes of turning backthe onslaught of the Indians.In Stillwell, a Sophomore, CoachWinters has a star center, and a manwho is well up in the list of highscorers in the Conference. 1o sup¬plement Stillwell in sniping baskets,Winters has Capt. “Chuck" Carney,who is one of the best forwards andbasket ringers in the Big Ten. Thiswill be a dangerous pair, and will require close guarding if they are to bestopped by the Varsity Saturday.Loss of Walquist Hurts Illini(Continued on Pone 4)GOODSPEED DENIESN. Y. TIMES’ STORYOF PROF.’S ARRESTApproximately two weeks ago astory was run in The New York Timesto the effect that J. Frank Lilly, aformer associate professor of psych¬ology at the University, was arrestedin Texas on information from JohnRoddie, a former student of his inpsychology. This story was copied into various Chicago dailies. Roddie,the reports ran, was incensed becauseLilly had failed to pass him and tooksome local knowledge to use againstthe supposed professor.A statement to The Daily Maroonhas come from the office of the pres¬ident, flatly denying that any suchperson as J. Frank Tally ever belong¬ed to the University faculty, or thatany John Roddie was on the Univers¬ity rolls. The letter from SecretaryGoodspeed runs as follows:“No such person as J. Frank Lillyhas ever belonged to the Universityof Chicago faculty, nor has he evertaught psychology or any other .sub¬ject in the University. Nor has anysuch student as John Roddie ever beenenrolled in the University.“A man named James FranklinTally studied here in 191.1-14 in theCollege of Education, hut he took no |degree, and never had a faculty con-1nection of any kind.” Judson Will Speak atBryce MemorialMeetingPresident Harry Pratt Judson willtell of the achievements of the lateViscount James Bryce in the field ofstatesmanship at a memorial meetingof the Political Science club tomor¬row at 4:10 in Harper assembly.

MAROON ATHLETESNOT AFFECTED BYUNIVERSITY WOMENNorthwestern’s Problem NotRelated to Athletics Flere—Unanimous OpinionFUSSERS NOT WANTED—STAGGA story appearing recently in adowntown paper assigning the causeof Northwestern University’s athleticdegradation as due to the “co-eds” inresidence at the northern institution,was a cause for comment, favorableand unfavorable in collegiate and hu¬morous journals throughout the coun¬try. The prophets of the press imme¬diately upon the release of the story,tried to connect in some way with theUniversity of Chicago.Special investigations carried on byThe Daily Maroon to determine thepresence of any eerie “co-ed” influenceon athletics have proved the Univers¬ity’s record unblemished in this re¬spect. The opinion of athletes andthose interested directly and indirect¬ly in the fate of Maroon teams isunanimous in declaring that Univers¬ity women hold a minimum part ofthe athlete’s attention during the sea¬sons when the Maroons compete withteams from other Universities andcolleges in athletics.Official Notice Bars FussersThe current opinion indicates thata sign posted last fall in the lockerroom of Bartlett gymnasium is indi¬catory of the Maroon athletic atti¬tude. It reads: “Fussers are notwanted.” In addition it includes ad¬monitions as to parties requiring thespending of the wee hours in wake¬fulness and instructions about cigar¬ettes.“Any fellow who cannot give upoutside social interests is not wantedon Maroon teams,” said Coach A. A.Stagg to a reporter for The Daily Ma¬roon. “A man who is an extreme‘fusser’ wouldn’t make much of anathlete anyway.”“Mitt” Romney, football captain-elect, and star Maroon athlete, said,“A fellow shouldn’t be an athlete ifhe hasn’t enough power not to let wo¬men influence him. I don’t see howwomen can interfere with an athleteif he really is an athlete. Two of Chi¬cago’s greatest athletes, McGuire andCrisler have never been unduly influ¬enced by women. Why should any yThat women help rather than hind¬er Maroon athletic prowess is theopinion of Dean D. H. Stevens. “Inmy opinion women help rather thanhurt University athletics. At theswimming meet the other night atleast one-third of the spectators werewomen. The men seemed to swim andplunge as well as if they were alonein Baitlett gymnasium.”SOPHS AND JUNIORSBATTLE FOR CLASSCAGE CHAMPIONSHIPCompetition for the interclass basketball championship will reach theclimax in the two games to be playedtomorrow evening in Bartlett gym¬nasium. At this time the sophomoreand junior class teams, which emergedvictorious from the contests of lastThursday, will battle for leadershipof the intra mural league. After thismatch, the seniors will meet the fresh¬men in a game that promises to beinteresting.The big game tomorrow is eagerlyanticipated by members of the classfives and by the campus at large. Ac¬cording to the predictions of JackHarris, Kenneth Gordon, and othersin charge of the tournament, \hegame between the sophs and the jun¬iors hsould virtually decide as to whoshall carry home the loving cup. Bothof these teams feel that they havea hard battle ahead of them and arepracticing to perfect their teamworkand scoring machines for the event.“Of course,” said Jack Harris, whois chairman of the basketball com¬mittee, “no matter who are the vic¬tors tomorrow, the school can counton a number of upsets to make thingsinteresting.

This means that numerousstudents will not he able ot attend theaffair. Only those who are fortunateenough to secure tickets will be ad¬mitted. And since the distributionof tickets is so arranged that thosewho come first are served first, it isup to every undergraduate who de¬sires to go to the Prom, to apply forhis ticket at once.The system of allotting tickets as itis now, seems to be rather fair. Alum¬ni will be given a small percentage;non-fraternity men, a reasonablenumber; and fraternity men, thegreatest proportion of all. To getProm ducats fraternity men must ap¬ply at once to the man at his fratern¬ity put in charge of taking care of thetickets. Non-fraternity men mustsend applications to Wallace Lanigan,beginning tomorrow.There are not enough tickets to goaround, and so the early bird will bethe one to get his.

Coach Norgren, who has beenwatching the progress of the tourna¬ment with an eye to future wearersof the Maroon, expressed himself aspleased with the ability shown by theclass men. Only after a hard game,which remained at a tie score untiltwo extra periods had been played,were the speedy sophs able to noseout the seniors, 17-15. In the secondcontest of the evening the juniors hadsome difficulty in vanquishing theirfreshmen opponents, at 12-8.‘The only disappointing feature ofthese games,” according to KennethGordon, president of the Undergrad¬uate council, “was the attendance.

M. Hemon wrote it years ago,and in French it has been very suc¬cessful; only now, however, has itbeen translated for English readers.The story of “Maria Chapdelaine”is simplicity itself. Maria is the eld¬est daughter of a trader who lives ina remote anil inaccessible corner ofCanada; she meets and loves FrancoisPaardis, and refuses all other suit¬ors. Then tie dies—a brave death—and Maria is left to disillusion andmarriage, as it were, to the soil. Onlythis: and it is more than enough.Very much like “Growth of theSoil,” you will say. In a way—yes.Rut Hamsun’s masterpiece is dyna¬mic in that it shows the slow evolu¬tion of a whole Community; “MariaChapdelaine” is static—a sort of crys¬tallization of a momentary episode,with the community remaining un¬changed. There an* marked similar¬ities, of course—the descriptions ofthe rugged and yet placid lake of thepeasants, the paramount influence ofnature, the fine simplicity of the in¬cidents and characters and emotions.“Maria Chapdelaine” might well becalled an American “Growth of theSoil.” Certainly it is a novel of pow¬er and beauty—and something moreHONEYMOON DIALOGUESYou remember, perhaps, the “GuideRook to Women” of James James?It was a very amusing book purport¬ing to elucidate the female. Now,evidently still alive in spite of the in¬numerable hat pin assaults that musthave come his way, Mr. James essaysanother book, and he calls it, quiteappropriately, HONE^ MOON DIA¬LOGUES ^Dutton). Let us proclaimfirst of all that it is just as funny as“Guide Book to Women.” And let usalso proclaim that it is just asnaughty.“Naughty” is perhaps too strong aword. Mr. James calls some of hissketches “The Perfume of Gladys”and “The Adventure of the MissingNightshirt,” but—well, who caresabout titles, anyway? There areenough good epigrams and smart linesin “Honeymoon Dialogues” to refur¬nish a complete Blackfriars show, andto refurnish it well. Mostly the bookdeals with a young lady named Ba-bette. Isn’t a book pretty well de¬scribed when you say that the hero¬ine’s name is Rabette? Exactly,Enough.MELVILLEThere has recently occurred a verycurious recrudenscence of interest inthe career and works of Herman Mel¬ville, the most neglected of significantAmerican men of letters and the au¬ thor of “Moby Dick,” that greatestof sea romances. This interest hasculminated, perhaps, in the four hun¬dred big pages of an official biogra¬phy—HERMAN MELVILLE: MAR¬INER AND MYSTIC (Dorar^), byRaymond Weaver of Columbia Uni¬versity.Melville had a most extraordinarycareer. He was born (I think) in1819, and at twenty he ran away tosea. After shipping before the mastor a cruise to the Pacific, he ran offto one of the Marquesa Islands andlived there among cannibals until heescaped. After many more curiousadventures he got back to America,started to write, and became com¬paratively well known. Then, afterdoing eight or ten novels, he sankdeep in metaphysics, and neveremerged thereafter except as a mysticof an incomprehensible order. He isknown as the literary discoverer ofthe South Seas, as the first real nov¬elist of the sea, and—as the author of“Moby Dick.”Mr. Weaver's biography is official,and absolutely nothing if not full. Weare given the Melville items in theAlbany city directory in the eighteen-thirties, and even a list of the coursesHerman took at school. Mr. Weaver,even if he had tried, could not be dullwith such a career to describe; thebook, in fact, is vitally interesting,and in places brilliant. And it reachesthe supreme aim of a work of criti¬cism—it awakens genuine interest inits subject. I defy anyone to read“Herman Melville” without posthastedashing to a bookstore to buy “MobyDick” and “Omoo” and “Typee” andthe others.BLOWSY BOSHThe elegant phrase capping thisparagraph is not mine; I stole itsomewhere (1 forget from whom), butit so aptly describes YOLt (Seltzer),bv Magdeline Marx, that it must beused.“You” is the second novel by theauthor of “Women.” Why the ladyruns to single-word titles I don’tknow; suffice it to say that they arealmost the only intelligible words inthe books. “You” is a maudlin and ameandering account of the amours ofa Parisienne named Anna; the lan¬guage is so boggy and the substanceso inordinately uncertain that even ifAnna were presented clearly (which,believe me, she is not), one could haveno interest in her. I shall hereafterconsider it one of my supreme marksof distinction that I was able actuallyt( finish “You” after I had (unfor¬tunately) begun it.POETRYAs usual—no space left and manybooks still to do done in. These sevenvolumes of verse must receive shortshrift.W’illiam S. Braithwaite performsfor American poetry the service Eu¬gene O’Brien undertakes for the shortstory—an annual anthology pickingthe prettiest posies. THE ANTHOL¬OGY OF MAGAZINE VERSE FOR1921 (Small Maynard) contains theusual mass of poetry which is “good”without being especially distinguishedand a few genuinely fine things. Thehigh lights this year seem to be poemsby Frost, Robinson, and a new-com¬er—Leonora Speyer.

The major portion ofthe volume goes to “Brutus,” a seriesof dramatic monologues and dialogues jnot wholly bad. The best thing in thevolume is a beautiful tribute to Wil¬liam Marion Reedy. Miss Zona Gala |has turned to verse in THE SECRETWAY’ (Macmillan), a volume so ex¬perimental that it contains terza rima ;and Spenserians, free verse and son-nets, ballads and conventional lyrics. >There is a million miles between the !moony imitations of Keats in the be¬ginning and the excellent “NewsNotes from Portage,” in vers libre,at the end. CHIMNEYSMOKE (Do¬ran) contains most of ChristopherMorley’s verse. The light poems aregood, but w'henever Mr. Morley growsse rious he becomes syrupy and spongywith sentiment. Amy Lowell has doneher 1921 volume in collaboration withFlorence Ayscough; it is a group of translations from the Chinese of Li-Tai-Po and Tu-Fu, and is called FIRFLOWER TABLETS (Houghton).Mrs. Ayscough did the word for wordtranslations, and Miss Lowell the ac- Itual poetry. The book seems to me |almost as satisfactory as Arthur Wa-ley’s superb Chinese translations.HYMAN (Holt), by “H.D.,” is thesecond volume published in eightyears by one of the greatest of the 1imagists. The type of verse is fa-1miliar—hard, close-clipped, cold. The jtitle piece is a sort of imagistic play.In DREAMS OUT OF DARKNESS j(Huebsch), Jean Starr Untermeyer jhas collected fifty or sixty short lyr- jics, almost all of them effective. The ititle is a good one — many of the Ipoems deal with death, or at leastwith temporary submergence intosomething or other. Mrs. Untermey-ier, I think, is a better poet than her,husband, Louis.

Mr. Harder, ourdistinguished co-respondent won famein journalistic circles as worn corre¬spondent for the Daily Northwestern,and is therefore well qualified to dis¬course upon the unlimited use of armsin uncivilized warfare. As Mr. Hard¬er so tersely and concisely admits, hewill discuss this problem at evengreater length in his next article,which we hope to be able to printsome day.)SONGMy mother calls me Virginia,My father says I’m thin;But “Gin” is what the men call me-And I like Gin.Prince Hal.AGAIN, NOBirdie: May 1 bring to your atten¬tion the sad case of Tiny Lapowskiof El Paso, the whirlwind Texasfrosh?

Coach Winters has been work- Iing Sabo, another speed merchant, inWalquist’s place.To date the Indians have not drop¬ped a game and as a consequence donot consider the Maroons much of astumbling block.
