Minnesotahas already handed the Varsity fivea trimming, but since that time havenot been going so good. On the otherhand the Maroons have at last gotgoing again, and will enter the Go¬pher game determined to get revengefor the beating they suffered at Minneapolis.The Gophers opened the week aus¬piciously, losing to the lowly North¬western quintet, and since they havealready trimmed the Purple, the Ma¬roons are doped to take a fall out ofthe Minnesota crew.Gophers Have VeteransThe Gophers will in all probabilitypresent the same lineup which wasvictorious in the game played at Min¬neapolis last month. Capt. Kearneyand Hulthranz, both veteran stars,will play the guards, Capt. Kearneytaking care of the running guard joband Hultkranz defending the Gopherbasket. The giant Hanson will playcenter, with Doyle and Severinsonholding down the forwards.Severinson and Capt. Kearney gavethe Maroons the most trouble in thelast meeting between the two teams,and the Varsity athletes will have totake care of these stellar performersif they hope to win. The Gopher de¬fense is very good, as was indicatedwhen the Maroons looped but twobaskets in the game at Minneapolis.Gophers Meet Different FiveHowever, the Gophers will find anentirely new Maroon machine thanthat which they encountered lasttime. Coach Norgren’s new combina¬tion has had a long period of trainingsince then, and is now travelling attop speed.In the Purdue game the Varsitydisplayed some of the best basketballthey have yet shown this season, and,heartened by this exhibition, Norgrenhas been driving his charges hard inorder to keep them going.Same Maroons to PlayYardley, who played a bang-upgame against the Boilermakers, hold¬ing their star scorer to two shots dur-(Continued on Poop 4)NEW COMMITTEESANNOUNCED FORPREP CAGE MEETAnnouncement has been made fromthe athletic office of four main com¬mittees for the annual interscholasticbasketball tournament to be held hereApril 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8.

Holiday Burglars Dis¬rupt Military ScienceDepartmentWhile Maj. Marr and the other offi¬cials of the Military Science depart¬ment were absent yesterday celebrat¬ing the holiday, burglars broke intothe Armory in Ellis hall and stolethe trajectory from one of the lightfield artillery guns. No trace of thethiefs or the missing article has yetbeen found.Maj. Marr and his assistants aregreatly distressed over the loss, asthe stolen trajectory was one of th,?most valuable pieces of equipmentbelonging to the University unit. Infact', it is impossible to operate the75mm gun without this device. Inaddition to absconding with this ap¬paratus, the thief left some of theother pieces of equipment in badlydamaged condition. The abatage ofthe large howitzer was badly scorched with cigarette ashes and the interior ballistics of the British “eighteenpounder” were bent and twisted intoan unrecognizable mass.Local police have been notified andevery effort is being made to appre¬hend the student or outsider respon¬sible. A prominent student on thecampus has advanced the theory thatthe theft occurred early yesterdaymorning after the finish of the Wash¬ington Prom. A diminutive Parker-house roll, found near the damagedguns, seemed to substantiate thistheory.Maj. Marr, head of the M. S. de¬partment, announces that this willnot affect the holding of classes, whichwill go on according to schedule.DIRECTOR ASSIGNSFINAL PARTS FORDRAMA CLUB PLAYSeven Characters for “1 hreeLive Ghosts” ChosenFollowing Tryouts“Three Live Ghosts” will appear inMandel March 10 and 11 as the win¬ter play of the University Dramaticclub.

Below them hung a majesticcrystal ball which revolved as the hopproceeded.

There is no reason for play¬ing hiding-go-seek with the amateurrules. Every rule that governs anvform of amateur athletics says thatan amateur is one who does not compete for cash prizes, who does notcompete against or with professionalswhere gate receipts are taken. Evenif he is not paid a salary the fact ishe competed with or against professionals where gate receipts werecharged.Any person who can read should beconvinced that the rules mean justwhat they say. When you take cashdirectly or indirectly, you are a pro¬fessional, in your own mind, whetherany one else knows it or not. Anamateur is not supposed to run orcompete on an assumed name. If hedoes he is cheating. Therefore he isliable to suspension, or expulsion forall time.

Mr. Frost will explain his wholetheory of versification in an addresson “Writing Down the Voice.”The Moody lectures are open freeto the public. As no admission priceor ticket is required for Thursday’saddress, the authorities are preparingfor a record audience of students andothers interested.Mr. Frost is one of the most pop¬ular poets of modern times, accord¬ing to statements by both Dean Rob¬ertson and Dean Boynton. “His longresidence in New Hampshire,” de¬clares Dean Boynton, “and his greatlove for this region have made himthe voice and embodiment of ruralNew England. Some of his best worksportray the healthy joys of rustic life.They have the rock-ribbed austerityof the country from which they springand some of its beauty, too.” DeanRobertson called him “the most in¬fluential and the most interesting ofAmerican poets.”Robert Frost was a professor atAmherst from 1917 to 1920. At pres¬ent he is located at the University ofMichigan. Although his works areeminent, even more of his popularityis centered about the man himself,who is reputed to be one of the fewgood poets who are also good speak¬ers. His most noted volumes of poet¬ry are: “North of Boston,” “A Boy’sWill,” and “Mountain Interval.”Two Social Events TodayTwo social gatherings will be holdin Ida Noyes hall this afternoon. ElCireolo Italiano will have an informaltea from 4 to 6 and the Chicago Exchange will meet between the hoursof 4 and 8.Helen Norris, ’07,Will Speak TodayHelen Norris, ’07, of the Common¬wealth Edison company, will speakat the Federation meeting today at 1in the Y.

MissNorris will explain the opportunitiesfor the University women in gettingpositions of importance.An invitation to attend the meet¬ing has been extended to all Univers¬ity women.Books and reading materials aboutvarious occupations are always ac¬ceptable in the Federation sewingroom in Ida Noyes.

Many good locations on the mainfloor and in the balcony will be soldto the first comers at prices rangingfrom 75 cents to $2.50.The first dress rehearsal lastedfrom 10 to 2 last night, and the finalreview left the promoters with highhopes for the success of the show.“Costumes and scenery are differentfrom anything ever shown on thestage of Mandel,” said HamiltonColeman yesterday. “We have a goodshow and a wonderful setting for ii.The campus will get the surprise ofits life. We are purposely keepingthe character of the acts a secret asthe success of the show depends uponthem being a complete innovation.”Programs Back From PrintersThe programs have been receivedfrom the printers and are pronounceda work of art. It was found impos¬sible to use the poster drawn by Dor¬othy Dick for the program cover; sothe drawing submitted by Alice Lar¬son was decided upon. It is done inpurple on an orange background, andreported to be very striking. SigneWennerblad, in charge of the “ads”for the program announced that 10pages had been taken by variousfriends of the University. The busi¬ness depression made the solicitingof advertisements particularly diffi¬cult this year, necessitating a cut ofsix pages from the program as orig¬inally planned.Fisher Head Make-up ManVories Fisher has been appointedto the task of making up the youngwomen of the chorus. He will be as¬sisted by Frank Bitter, Sol Litt, andGeorge Downey. Chi Psi freshmenhave been inveigled into shiftingscenes, and the Phi Gam chapter willassist in the lighting, and other oddjobs behind the footlights.J.

An entrancefee of 50 cents is charged.SOPH-FROSH PROMTICKETS AVAILABLE;TO ISSUE NO MOREAll tickets for the Sophomore-Freshman Prom have been issued, ac¬cording to Edward McAdams, chair¬man of the ticket committee for theProm. Some of these tickets may beavailable later, but there will be ab¬solutely no more printed, as the Ken¬wood club, where the affair is to beheld, will not accommodate more thantwo hundred couples.Anyone desiring tickets should ap¬ply as soon as possible to McAdamsat the Phi Kappa Psi house or to Rus¬sell Pettit at the Delta Tau Deltahouse, as there will be little chanceto obtain the pasteboards after theend of the week.THE DAILY MAROON.

Mr. Frost is insome respects the foremost Americanpoet; certainly his volumes “North ofBoston” and “Mountain Interval” aret. long the most vital and significantinterpretations of American life themodern renaissance of poetry hasproduced. Mr. Frost is a genuinepoet of the soil, and his work reflectsnative life with truth and distinction.Mi', Frost is a personality as wellas a poet. Recently the Universityof Michigan has appointed him amember of the English departmentwith no academic duties; Mr. Frost’ssole business is to mix with the stud¬ents and to help in some degree a“cultural atmosphere.” He has alsobeen Professor of Poetry at Amherst.The subject of Mr. Frost’s lectureis, “Writing Down the Voice.” Itbehooves every student interested inpoetry*- or personality to be on hand.FIND THE PLACEMuch has been done lately to abatethe detrimental attitude of studentsin Harper reading room. The Un¬dergraduate council has placed large“Silence” signs at either end of theroom and The Daily Maroon has con¬tinually published articles discourag¬ing talking in Harper in an effort tomitigate the situation.But the noise and confusion in thereading room today is almost as dis¬turbing as it was before the publicitywas given to the deplorable condition.It is apparent that the majority ofundergraduates do not go up into thereading room to study. Harper is theonly place on the campus where theycan meet and converse with theirfriends, they aver. And so they willnot keep quiet no matter how muchthey are appealed to on their honor.There seems to be only one solu¬tion. Find another place where stud¬ents of both sexes can talk and makeas much noise as they please, andthere will soon be a grand hegira fromthe reading room. Just now- thereprobably isn’t a spot on the quad¬rangles where students could hold so¬cial meetings. But the sooner sueh aplace can be found, the sooner theabominable situation in Harper canbe mitigated.PROM CONSIDERED HUGE SUC¬CESS BY STUDENTS PRESENT(Continued from Page 1)the sky-lights furnished a soft il¬lumination.

TOM EUK DISCUSSES PROFES¬SIONALISM IN AMATEURATHLETICS(Continued from Page 1)Amateur One Who Never WorkedThe rules says to be eligible, youmust be an amateur under all rules.But you must also be a gentlemanwho NEVER WORKED. Guy Nichols,the American single stroke championsome years ago, entered the event,but was barred from competition be¬cause he worked in a store or bank.But the following year, Lou Scholesof Toronto, amateur champion ofCanada and the United States, en¬tered the English Govern Body. Hewrote to the mayor of Toronto andthe chief of police who was the pre¬sident of the Canadian Amateur A.A. to find out Schole’s standing,whether he ever worked was under¬lined. The mayor and chief called onLou’s father, and read the rules tohim.He said that Lou was a pure ama¬teur and that he had never worked forany store, bank or railroad. In factLou had been too lazy to split kind¬ling wood, carry up coal, or carrywater. He was absolutely a pureamateur, one who never worked hardenough to get up a sweat, except inhis shell. Lou Schole’s entry was ac¬cepted, and he won the DiamondSkulls and will show them to any onewho visits Toronto.(Note:—This is (he second of theseries of discussions of the problemof professionalism in the ranks ofuniversity athletics.) FIFTH “KNOW CHICAGO”TOUR TO PAINT WORKSThe fifth of the “Know Chicago”tours under the auspices of the Y. M.C. A. will be made Saturday morning,Feb. 25, to the Sherwin-WilliamsPaint Co.

A glance atthe plants already visited show thatthey are all leaders in their line.Anyone interested may make thotrip and need go to no expense excepicarfare.

The Daily Ma¬roon, in an interview with a country¬man from Cecilie, who is attendingthe University, secured the followingstatement concerning the wholesaleslaughter which he witnessed and inwhich relatives of his lost their lives.“The Turks employed a stair ofspecial officers whose duty it was topreach to the common people, tellingthem that they would receive celestialrewards if they acted according tothe will of Allah, which in this casewas to kill the Garours, or unbeliev¬ers. The people then gathered ingroups and committed massacres. Inreality they have nothing against us,and are as innocent as the people ofany country. They act from whatthey are told is their duty, and aremerely the pawns of the rulers. Lackof education and religious fanaticismare the two things which lie at thebottom of the misery in that coun¬try.”Flees Turk Prison 30 TimesThe Armenian, a student here, isearnestly interested in the pre-medicwork which he has taken up at theUniversity. To escape questioningand interruption he asked that hisname be withheld. It was difficult toget an account of his own experiences,but from what could be drawn fromhis account, he was exiled from hisnative city in 1014.Since that time his life has beenone of captures and escape, of mas¬sacre and murder. At one time hewas left in the middle of the Arabiandesert without food, at another timehe escaped capture by leaping from arailroad train. He was captured andimprisoned thirty times, making hisescapes by either bribery, stealth, orjumping from trains which were tak¬ing him to a new prison. Five yearsof imprisonment and misery have leftindelible marks upon him, but, as hesays, “educated people see below thesurface of many things which to theuneducatd would seem horrible, un¬just in every sense of the word. Ihold no malice against the 'lurk.” Passing of Prom SendsFair Gymnasts toWork AgainThe Prom has gone.Today, furniture throwers, janitorsand common students are busy put¬ting old Ida Noyes back in shape.And—In certain quarters, dorms and fra¬ternity houses are serving their firstmeal since Tuesday night, for afterthe Prom there must come a time ofrecuperation.And through it all runs the hopein the hearts of the women that Ida jNoyes shall be the location of a week- jly escapade.For, in such parties both the fairsex see the wray to a gymless quarter Iof bliss.Last Monday and Tuesday the barsand ropes and baskets and rings were jhung high—far beyond the reach of lfeeble gymnasts. On those memor- jable days, no roll was taken—for oncein the history of the department, wo-1men came and stood amazed and then ;departed and the cherished “cut” jmade not its appearance upon the iink-filled attendance column.For the Prom needs must decorateand Miss Dudley, a staunch backer of jthe annual affair, surrendered the fort jwillingly in the interests of the un-!dergraduates and the tradition of the jUniversity. Rosenwald WeatherBureau Tests AirTucked away in the tower of Iiosen-wald is a complete weather bureaustation that does all the work of aregular federal station with the exception of weather forecasting.Recently a series of measurementsof Hie brightness of the sky weremade by the U. S. bureau, observa¬tions being taken at Washington, D.C., the Loop district of Chicago andthe University of Chicago. Sincethere is no manufacturing in Wash¬ington the readings there were takenas the basis of computation. In theLoop district, on a clear day, the skyhad only 50 percent of the brightnessof the sky at Washington. But whenthe readings were taken from the topof Rosenwald the atmosphere and thesky above the University registered75 per cent clear, as compared toWashington.Thus even with all the smoke aboutChicago, students of the Universitylive in practically pure atmosphericconditions. With the Loop districtseven miles away the impurities ofthe atmosphere filter out beforereaching the University and the stud¬ents have a much healthier air to livein.DIRECTOR ASSIGNSFINAL PARTS FORDRAMATIC CLUB PLAYMEN’S GLEE CLUB ANDFRIAR ORCHESTRA CO-OPERATEFollowing a suggestion made byDean Boynton at the annual Black-friars banquet the Glee club plans tocooperate in the production of subse¬quent shows. “LTp to this time,” saidBertram Grandquist, manager of theclub, when questioned about the mat¬ter, “the two organizations have al¬ways gone on independently of oneanother when both might have profit¬ed by a little cooperation.” Duringthe month of March the Glee club andthe Friars orchestra will give a jointconcert, the first event under the newpolicy.Teresa DolanDancing AcademyG3rd Street and Stony Island AvenueDANCINGNIGHTLY Except MON. and FRI.Ladies FREE Sunday EveningsBeginners’ Class Mon., 8:00-11:00Private Lessons Day or Evening byAppointment.
