A woman fromeach hall will be selected tonight toorganize and manage the representa¬tive team. A regular schedule willbe followed, and full credit will begiven for attendance.The class may be substituted for ing, and weekly meetings will be heldeach succeeding Wednesday of thequarter at 7.

Cap¬tains will be announced tomorrow. Why are coal balls found in coalmines? This is the problem whichthe Botany department is now at¬tempting to solve.For a coal ball is a lump of rockwhich ought to be a lump of coal.Originally a mass of vjegetation, justas a seam of coal was once a mass ofvegetation, it was gradually changedinto stone by the action of calcium—or silica-bearing water. Cell by cell,the vegetable ‘matter was replacedwith silica or calcium, the originalstructure being retained. And justhow the mineral water changed thisparticular jumble of dead plants intostone without affecting the vegetationsurrounding it is what puzzles thescientists. For coal balls are foundonly in coal mines: and coal is plantmaterial which has passed merelythrough a physical change.However, Mr. Hoskins of the Bot¬any department is engaged in study¬ing the “first American coal ball”which was discovered recently by Dr.Noyes in a southern Illinois coalmine. This is the first coal ball tobe found in the United States and issaid to be as perfect structurally asany of the numerous European speci¬mens. A second American coal ballwas recently acquired for the depart¬ment by Dr. Noyes. It was discov¬ered in Kentucky. It is expected thatscientific knowledge in regard toplant life in America during the pe¬riod of coal-formation will be muchincreased by a study of these coalballs. As the coal itself is withoutstructure, the onlj knowledge previously gained has been through astudy of fossil remains in the coalfields.COMPLAINTS ABOUTTICKET DISTRIBUTIONSYSTEM UNFOUNDEDSpecial Committee AppointedBy Heckman FindsMethod O. K.“Fundamentally O.

Re¬cent complaints about the plan haveno foundation, according to the com¬mittee’s report.The committee has proved beyondquestion that in the last season lessscalping has taken place than informer years. Students in the Uni¬versity, however, are to blame forthe bulk of the scalping that has beendone.Make Slight ChangesIn the future the Football Ticketscommittee will follow this year’s planwith but slight changes in the meth¬od of handling its mail business.Hereafter, out-of-town purchaserswill receive either the tickets theyhave ordered or their money imme¬diately, instead of being compelled towait till just before the game for areply.Reports to the effect that purchas¬ers will be limited to two tickets eachare unfounded. The committee willgive preference to purchasers of twotickets; orders for four will be giventwo tickets of second choice and twoof third choice.Discuss Portfolio SubstituteW. A. A. Advisory board will holdits first open meeting of the quarterin Ida Noyes theater at noon today.The main subject that will be broughtup for discussion will be that of asubstitute money-making program totake the place of Portfolio.

Grey and King to ManageDrive for FoodStationCAMPAIGN TO LAST FOUR DAYSThe Undergraduate council has an¬nounced the launching of a four daycampaign for the Student FriendshipFund, to be under the direction ofLennox Grey and Winifred King.“The campaign will cotninue fromMonday morning until Thursday,”said Walker Kennedy in an interviewyesterday. The collection of the fundwill be a part of the work of theWorld’s Student Federation for Eu¬ropean Student Relief, which is at¬tempting to make it possible for stud¬ents in foreign countries to continuetheir studies, by the establishment offood stations at the various institu¬tions. The Undergraduate councilhopes to obtain funds enough tomaintain a station at some RussianLrnivcrsity, to be known as “The Uni¬versity of Chicago Food Station.”John R. Mott Heads DriveThe Student Federation is headedby John R. Mott and is highly en¬dorsed by Herbert Hoover. It waslargely because the particular fieldwas not provided for by the Amer¬ican Relief Association, that the Fed¬eration was formed by Mr. Mott. Themovement is a world one, and the or¬ganizers hope that every Universityin the country will participate insome measure.Vanderlip Endorses PlansFrank A. Vanderlip, American fin¬ancier and international economist, inspeaking of the plans of the Federa¬tion, said, “This movement seems tome to be one of the sound and con¬structive movements in the wholeEuropean situation. There are somany deteriorating influences atwork that any plans that promisesome sound upbuilding, and aim todestroy some of the hatreds and prej¬udices that prevent European recov¬ery, should have the sympathy of ev-eiyone interested in the future ofEurope.”Russia’s Political SalvationThe Undergraduate council madethe following statement concerningthe University’s part in the move¬ment:“This effort, designed to save fromstarvation Russian university stud¬ents, who are the one great hope forRussian poiltical salvation, will be(Continued on page 2)BOOK BY CROSS TOESTABLISH CELTICORIGIN OF NOVELSThat the best-sellers of the MiddleAges took their plots from tse Irisnand Weiss literatures is the conten¬tion upoeld by Prof. Tom Peete Cioss,head of the depastment of GeneralLiterature, in a book to be publishedooon. Prof. Cross’ book will consti¬tute the first survey of all the evi¬dence in support of this hypothesis.Students of the mehieval romanc¬es, which according to Prof. Crosswere the society novels of the Mid¬dle Ages, are divided into two rivalcamps. One theory, which had itsorigin in the university of Bonn inGermany, holds that these storiesgrew out of the German legends.Other students, among them Prof.Nitze, head of the department of theRomance Languages and Literatures,maintains that their origin is Celtic.For example, it has been shownthat the description of King Arthur’spalace, on which Tennyson based hisdescription, is like certain accounts inlittle-known Celtic manuscripts, andbears no resemblance to the concep¬tions found in classical or Germanicliteratures.Prof. Cross has collected all evi¬dence of this sort for the first time inone work.Page Two THE DAILY MAROON, THURSDAY, JANUARY 4, 1923St}?

Advertising Mgr.William Kerr AssistantTheodore Weber AssistantRobert Moore AssistantRussell Pettit Circulation ManagerRalph Blink AssistantUNDERGRADUATEDELINQUENCYWe sometimes forget, in the rushof busy collegiate days, that thetransition which comes after gradua¬tion is a rapid one. Going from lim¬ited circles of activity into the mess¬es of an average life—rotary clubs,fraternal organizations that havepool tournaments and initiations,sales meetings, grocery bills, churchsocials, political ward meetings—brings disconcerting problems. Thesocial. philosophical, psychologicaltheories become dim before the on¬slaughts of the Prohibitionists, W. C.T. U., and I. W. W. and Ku KluxKlan.It is surprising to find how manyundergraduates fail to read the dailypapers. They have little knowledgeof current affairs, except as discussedat home or in class. And what theydo read they take for granted. Ifthe Daily Bugle, their chosen med¬ium, lauds the lynching of negroes inLouisiana, so be it. If it is the Clar¬ion they read, and it favors federalprosecution of all lynchers, they arewilling that they be lynched. Forafter all it does not affect their pos¬sibilities of being chosen committeechairman of the Valentine Day fes¬ tival. They read, believe, and throwreason and thought to history read¬ing reports, basketball games andfraternity politics.Some day these collegiate individ¬uals are to find themselves with thewhole messy, complicated, selfishworld swatting them right and left,demanding information and thought¬ful consideration on every hand. Theboss argues international debt can¬cellation and wants intelligent con¬versation upon the matter. Huneker’sidea of Shaw, Watson’s theory of in¬stincts, the fundamental law of sup¬ply and demand don’t tell why Francehasn’t enough money to pay. Theyare law in their spheres, and bun¬combe without—unless applied withreason.College can’t be thrown off in aday. A sheepskin embellished withLatin will not bring illimitable knowl¬edge. Thompsonian politics, leagueof nations, tax problems, religiousdifficulties have important shelves inour national and international gal¬leries. They need study. They areold questions, and can’t be learned ina day.COUNCIL TO AID RUSS STUD¬ENTS WITH FOOD FI ND(Continued from page 1)diiected toward a one hundred percent support from both the studentsand faculty of the University'.

They will con¬sist mainly of old runners of triedcalibre although there are many newmen with brilliant records who mightbe used.KBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBflChoice of a CareerFrom the Yale NewsTHE NINETY-FOURSomeone, probably an insuranceagent, was quoted recently as sayingthat from the mass of one hundredcollege graduates one individual onlyrose to the Polo and butler class, peril¬ously near the top of the financial lad¬der. Five others became comfortablyoff and found themselves after twentyyears at the small yacht and chauffeurstage. The other ninety-four presum¬ably congregate in the great section ofthe American people who drive theirown Buicks to the golf club. In otherwords, dreaming about being a richman is one thing, and making the gradeis “something else again.”Yet the ninety-four presumably workjust as hard as the sumptuous six. Theirbusiness is the axis on which a smalland uninteresting world revolves. Theyhave become devotees of the dollarand when that fickle deity deserts, havenowhere else to turn. Jammed in adull, straight rut of business they cannever leave the road and jump the fenceinto finer fields of life. This, then, isthe portion of ninety-four men out ofevery hundred now on the campus.The answer to the problem lies inthe proper choice of a career.Between now and Commencementwe shall have something to offer onthe subject of “Careers.” Watch forthe space with the Famous Signature. ■mM/z„Life Insurance Company''SR or Boston.

McGuireAlas, the great and only WalterCamp, the man who spends thousandsof dollars yearly in the compilationof reports of football players all overthe country, and who spends anequally large sum of money in tour¬ing the country to witness the lead¬ing college grid teams in action, hascome forth with his annual all-Amer¬ican selections, and in accordancewith our expectations the name ofJohn Thomas is there. That’s justice.When Mr. Eckersall of the ChicagoTribune and Mr. Sullivan of the Her¬ald-Examiner made their selectionsof all-American teams, John Thomaswas barely mentioned. They pointedout that he was a “line plunger ex¬clusively,” and that his activities inthe other departments of the gamewere nil. They pointed to GordonLocke of Iowa and Cleaves of Prince¬ton as ideal fullbacks, primarily be¬cause these men can run the ends andpass, as well as plunge. The fact wasthat neither Princeton nor Iowa hadcapable men to perform these dutiesand Locke and Cleaves were calledupon to perform them because of thedeficiency. •Here at Chicago the situation wasmuch different.
