IVol. 24 No. 35 UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO, TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 18, 1924 Price 5 CentsCOMPLETE WORKON INTER-GREEKBALL THIS WEEKPlan for Attendance ofTwo Hundred TwentyFiveFinal arrangements are being madefor the annual Interfraternity ballWednesday, Nov. 26. Late reportsestimate that the attendance willreach 225 couples, while manyGreeks are requesting additional tick¬ets to the council’s allotment of sevento each fraternity.Howard Briggs, Finance chairmanof the Interfraternity council, saidlast night: “We are requesting thatfraternities pay for their ticketssometime before Wednesday night inorder that we may get a line on anyprecious bid which might be avail¬able. There has been a great dealof comment on the campus as towhetheT or not Frank Westphal’sColumbia orchestra would play atthe ball. The management wish toannounce that the “Columbians” willplay. Although at the present timethey are under a Benson contractthey have given us their services forthe night of the 26th.”Decorations Collegiate“The exclusive Crystal Ballroom ofthe Blackstone hotel will take on acollegiate tone for the ball,” saidHoward Amick. “Banners of everyGreek association on the campus willbe draped from the balcony of theballroom. The ensign of the Univer¬sity will gleam from the end of thehall, while Maroon banners will behung on the walls of the crystal hall.All this college atmosphere bathedin the irresistible syncopation ofFrank Westphal’s Columbians willmake the Interfraternity ball one ofthe most brilliant affairs in the so¬cial curriculum of the University.The council has secured the use ofthe spacious balcony along with extraroom in the hotel due to the largenumber of fraternity men which willbe present. It is my opinion this w'il!be the greatest social function of theGreek societies this year.”The University Bbokstore has co¬operated with the members of theInterfraternity council in furnishingbanners and other decorations forthe Crystal Ballroom.“EFFICIENCY” KEYNOTEOF DRAMATICGROUP“Efficiency in production” will l>«the keynote of the Dramatic associa¬tion when they present, on December12. their newest offering,“The DoverRoad,” by A. A. Milne. Scenerybuilding, staging, casting, and busi¬ness management of the play will beput on an efficiency basis, it was an¬nounced by Mari Bachrach, presidentof the thespians, who pointed out nu¬merous innovations already adoptedby the dramats, to prove her conten¬tion.Building their own scenery is alarge portion of the coming produc¬tion, and under the direction ofGeorge Downing, settings are at thepresent time under construction forthe popular farcical comedy. Thework is being carried on with utmostcare with the idea in mind of pro¬viding sets that are as perfect asthose coming from workshops of thescenic artists.A more elaborate system of actualstaging of the play prevails than hasprevailed in the past, it was pointedout by Miss Bachrach. Understudiesare employed to handle each impor¬tant part, the major portion of thedirecting is in the hands of the mem¬bers of the association, and an effortis being made to assure a first-rateshow.James Parker, business managerof the association, is handling allphases of the publicity and businessmanagement. He also is handlingposter work this year. Plan Celebrationfor ChampionshipStagg Field will blaSe with abonfire such as has never beenseen before, if the Universityfootball team wins its final con¬test of the year next Saturday andand clinches the Conference cham¬pionship. Kenneth Laird, presi¬dent of the Undergraduate coun¬cil, appointed a celebration com¬mittee last night to prepare plansfor the proper thanksgiving if theteam runs true to form, and abonfire, snake dance, parade, andgeneral uproar were the first ideasformulated.Bruce McFarlane will head thecommittee, with John Howell ashis chief aid, and William Kerr,head cheer leader, as an ex-officioassistant. Only the general out¬line of the program has been de¬cided on as yet, but they mayinclude a pap session in front ofCobb every noon this week, endingwith the biggest of all, Fridaynight, in Mandel hall. A footballdinner—there has been none asyet this Fall — may be given inHutchinson commons, and theremay be several parades the nightbefore the game.Already the fraternities havebegun to collect wood for the hugebonfire which the committee plansto have ready for lighting on thenorth Practice field. The fresh¬men have started scouring thecommunity for old newspapers,boxes, anything to create a blase,in case the go ifalon becomes areality.BUSINESS MBTOLD IN SPEECHC. and A. Students HearWhy Men Fail“Concentration of purchases intoas few sources as possible, keeping aperpetual inventory, rapid turnover,and maintaining a budget are essen¬tial to a successful business,” saidMr. E. M. Skinner, in his lecture yes¬terday in the C and A Building at2:30. The lecture was one of a seriesgiven to students as an aid to choos¬ing a vocation.Mr. Skinner is the present generalmanager of Wilson Brothers and for¬merly acted as their credit manager.He has also held the position ofpresident of the Chicago Associationof Commerce.“We have passed through two ex¬treme periods and the situation isvery interesting,” was Mr. Skinner’scomment. “We are emerging from aperiod of depression which had beenpreceded by a prosperous era. Thatis the situation all the time, forthe Americans are a mercurial peo¬ple. They create very prosperous orvery adverse circumstances. Theyhave rarely found a place betweenthese two extremes.“In the packing industry the prof¬its of today come from the wastes ofyesterday. In most of the other in¬dustries, merchants waste the profitsof their business. There is no secretof success in business,” said Mr.Skinner, “for failure is due to lackof intelligence and lack of good hardwork.

The service is an an¬nually held affair by the organizationfor the purpose of welcoming all newmembers and is planned on a differentbasis from that of any other serviceheld during the year.The new members will take theircandles to the theatre, and will lightthem from a single large candle burn¬ing there. A triangle will be formedin the theatre and the old memberswill take positions directly behind theinitiates while Antoinette Forrester,president of the association, reads theservice.

Stev¬ens, director of music at the Univer-city, this week’s program is to be es¬pecially attractive because of the ex¬cellent playing of Mr. Reuter, and thediversity cff numbers to represent allstyles and schools of composition.The classics are headed by the Wald-stein sonata of Beethoven and theever popular emotional Chopin, fol-lovred by the better class of moderns. Students FavorHare System ofElecting OfficersMembers of the faculty and stu¬dent body, when questioned upon thesuccess of the Hare system of prefer¬ential balloting yesterday, were al¬most unanimous in the decision thatit is a success as applied to campuspolitics. The general purpose of theHare system of proportional repre¬sentation is to alter the fundamentalbasis of representation by offeringto voters "who live apart but thinkalike” the opportunity to unite uponone or more candidates of theirchoice.Id the recent class elections theHare system as conceived by its au¬thor was not used according to Mr.Jerome Kerwin of the Political Sci¬ence Department. Mr. Kerwin wenton to say that preferential voting wasused in the local elections. There areseveral variations in the two systems,although they are fundamentally thesame. The Hare system is used toelect more than one man. the mini¬mum being three. Cleveland, Cinci-natti and San Francisco use the Hareplan to elect their city councils. Inpractice it secures the representa¬tion of various groups according totheir numerical strength. *Doe* Not Eliminate PoliticsPreferential voting in theory se¬cures the candidate who is the popu¬lar representative and although it isbetter than straight voting, it doesnot eliminate politics. In behalf ofpreferential voting perhaps the mostimpressive eiaim advanced it that itcomes nearer to election by absolutemajority than any other system yetdevised. Whether it is a success, itis for the individual to decide.Herewith is presented the opinionsof various men chosen at random ofthe Hare system as applied to Under¬graduate elections. Mr. Jerome Ker¬win: The three opening paragraphsembody a brief account of the sys¬tem as conceived through Mr. Ker-win’s authoritative knowledge.Mr. Frank O’Hara: “The theoryof such a system selects the most rep¬resentative person. What the prac¬tice is I do not know because I havenot studied the question. The Under¬graduate body will decide the ques¬tion, as it should, of course, throughits self-government.”Anderson PleasedCharles Anderson: “It’s great!The popular choice of the classwas selected each time, and it wasthe cleanest election in the historyof the school.”Howard Amick: “The Hare sys¬tem reproduces in the representativebody the true interests and opinionsof the voters and by giving eachvoter a share in the election it en¬courages voting and increases inter¬est. in class affairs.

Gosnell, of the departmentof political science at the Universityof Chicago, today outlined the meth¬ods employed in getting more adultcitizens out to vote. The experimentconducted during the past monthgrew out of a study of non-votingcompleted this year under the super¬vision of Prof. Charles E, Merrianand Mr. Gosnell.On the basis of the previous study,a careful canvass of twelve districtswas made by students in the depart¬ment of political science.

Here we live pretty muchwithin our fraternities, and come backto our fraternities. In the east, mencome back to their Alma Mater andtheir classmates and. incidentally, totheir fraternities.The fault lies, of course, back in thecolleges. We have done little to stim¬ulate class unity in the past. Andthe administration, in the past, hasnot considered it essential that therebe class consciousness. Thirty yearshave shown, however, that the manwho does things for the Universityafter he has left it behind is the manwho was most keenly aware, duringhis college days, of something withinthe Chicago spirit. That phase of aman’s loyalty to his Alma Mater canbest be filled by creating for him aclass unity.So much is all theory, a sort ofcross-eyed sermonizing. We’re look¬ing at the classes in general, but we’ve Luncheon and tea are to be servedas an additional feature of this year’sY. W. C.

One committee will devoteitself exclusively to the selling ofcandy.A dance has been arranged to takeplace from 4 to 6. but as yet onlytentative plans have been made forthe securing of an orchestra.“The bazaar is one of the big an¬nual affairs of the year,’’ said Antoin¬ette Forrester, president of Y. W. C.A„ and will furnish a splendid oppor¬tunity to purchase Christmas gifts fora good cause.”BUSINESS NEEDSTOLD IN SPEECHgot our eyes on the fraternities. . . . IYesterday and all this week (today, to¬morrow. and Tuesday) the class presi¬dents, elected recently, are being in¬stalled at the chapel hour before theirclassmates by the University chaplain.Dr. Soares presents the president-electwith a charge of responsibility in of¬fice, and the class with a charge toassist their leader all times. The lit¬tle ceremony may start the classes,and particularly '28. on their way togroup unity.THE INTER-GPEEK FORMALA rather cursory survey of the fra¬ternity social charts reveals surpris¬ing information. Not more than three,of thirty-one national organizations,are scheduled to have formal dancesthis year.This survey was made followingthe first announcement of the pro¬posed inter-fraternity ball. At thattime tne feasibility of the projectwas discussed, the chief contentionagainst it being that most fraterni¬ties preferred to hold individual for¬mal parties and that their memberscould not stand the cost of two, inaddition to the Washington Prom,the official University formal.In the meantime, however, plansfor the dance have gone ahead. Themanagers have secured the Black-stone hotel, which has one of the city’sfinest ballrooms; they have a superblocation, fine music, and Prom hoursto offer at an exceptionally smallcharge per couple.The survey taken shows definitelythat the average undergraduate can¬not pay for a fraternity formal. Oth¬erwise more of them would heplanned for the year. The reason,of course, is obvious. They cost fouror five times as much, for each in¬dividual, as the Interfraternity Prom.Here’s an opportunity for the mostpenniless of the Greeks to go to areal formal. We give it our heartysupport.udolph Reuter, pianist of theversity Orchestral association,give a recital at 4:15 today inn Mandel Assembly hall. (Continued from page 1)good, common “horse”sense,” he con¬tinued.“In order to start a business andbegin it right, a man must knowabout it. One of the best means ofknowing your business is throughkeeping a perpetual inventory. Toapply this plan, one must have defi¬nite knowledge of the business, andmust have some system, tfie simplerthe better.” he remarked. “This iswhat the perpetual inventory does:it gives a very definite knowledge andprovides a good system. It shows theamount of stock on hand, the amountordered, the amount sold, and thecost and profit. Thus it shows whereto put the pressure in selling cam¬paigns and enables the merchant tosee what lines are most profitable andwhich ones to discontinue.”Continuing. Mr. Skinner slatedthat “the next factor is concentrat¬ing purchases in as few directions aspossible. There are many advantagesfrom buying goods from only a fewconcerns. Among these are, the in¬terest the concern has for the pur¬chaser, the credit it will extend, andthe fact that it will not try to over¬stock in order to sell. If a merchantbuys from various manufacturerseach salesman tries to sell him- thelimit in order that the next one whocomes along will not be able to securean order. Since he knows that themerchant will not buy exclusivelyfrom him, he does not think of re¬peat orders. In the matter of exten¬sion of credit a few big concerns arewilling to agree to give more timethan a number of smaller ones. Lackof agreement has caused financialpanics such as the one that followedthe war, for then the merchants hadplenty of assets, but could not turnthem into cash.”The next point Mr. Skinner spokeon was turnovers. The turnover isthe most important thing there is inbusiness today,” he told his audience.“It is the number of times a mer¬chant turns over his stock,” he ex¬plained. “On an original investmentthe profit that is made is re-investedin the same article and sold againuntil on the single investment aprofit has accumulated that often ex¬ceeds the cost.” Here Mr. Skinnergave several illustrations to make hispoint. “From rapid and frequentturnovers many advantages result,”he continued. “It takes less invest¬ment, the stock is kept fresher, theRENT A CARDrive It YourselfBrand new Fords and Gear-shiftCars.J & L DRIVE IT YOURSELFSYSTEM6118-28 Cottage Grove Ave.4111 Hyde Park 4181 amount of stock is kept down, andthe debts are kept down. If a manhas the idea of turnover firmly setin mind and goes to the right peoplefor business, he will make money.”“The last factor I would suggestas an aid to business, is a budget. Ilis the simple plan of buying goodsand having them come in at the timeyou need them. The first thing to dois to estimate sales and then Juy iffaccordance with what you have andwhat you need. Buy a little in ad¬vance of your needs instead of wait¬ing until the last possible minute andthus putting an added strain on themanufacturer.”“The average merchant is not agood merchant. He knows little aboutbusiness, although he may know hisstock and be able to wait upon trade.The solution of the problem of busi¬ness lies in the co-operation of man¬ufacturer with merchant accom¬plished through salesmen. The sales¬man investigates the merchant’sstock and tries to make an agree¬ment whereby the storekeeper willbuy all his goods from the one con¬cern. In this way interest is estab¬lished between the two. The manu¬facturer helps by not urging toomuch goods on the merchant, andthe merchant helps by giving themanufacturer some idea of the goodsthat will be demanded.”A short discussion concluded themeeting. out, but the general note of the Nighthas been struck, and preparations areWell under v. jy for the gathering ofthe materials, and donations whichare to be sold at the igloos.

As is usual withbear stories, all of Northwestern's“cripples” performed like anythingbut cripples. Baker did some splen¬did offensive and defensive work. Butwith all their mighty efforts, thePurple were unequal to the task ofupsetting the Maroons.

A victory or a tie over Wis¬consin will give the Midwayites thecoveted honor, while a defeat wouldthre w the balance into the hands ofthe expectant Wolverines.The little gold footballs, emblem¬atic of the honors in the WesternConference, have begun to dazzle theeyes of the south siders and almostproved their downfall last Saturday.News of Illinois’ rough treatment atthe hands of the Gophers was the©nly thing that revived the laggingspirit and enabled them to pull aheartbreaker from %e fire.The battle’with Northwestern wenta long way to prove the vital partthat psychology plays in football.Only the Saturday before, the Ma¬roons showed what “keying up” fora game really does to create an al¬most superhuman offense. Last week¬end the Purple demonstrated whatthe same spirit will do to create analmost impenetrable defense. In eachinstance the heralded victor receiveda shock, a moral victory being ob¬tained by the underdog. However,in the first case a tie was the resit,but in the second example, the betterteam did succeed in snatching awaya victory. And, after all, the littlethree points are what count in thefinal determination.The close call will do the Maroonaggregation much good. The leth¬argy following the terrific nervousstrain of the Illinois game was veryapparent when the Chicago men trot¬ted on the field. The eleven did notmove around with alacrity; they allseemed fiat-fo< ted. Northwestern, onthe other hand, was prancing mostof the time, each man running insmall circles.However, this week there will bea different atmosphere, for the Ma¬roons received a lesson last week.

An¬other tie will make a total of threeties for the year. However, theMaroon aggregation will lie the onlyundefeated eleven in the Conference.In the event of a Badger win, Chi¬cago would fall to third position incase Illinois wins from Ohio.

Citizens -nterviewed ineach of the twelve districts were di¬vided into two groups: one selectedas the group to be stimulated to regis¬ter to vote , while the other was re¬served as a control. The purpose ofestablishing a control group, or oneupon which no action was taken, wasto determine what proportion of citi¬zens would have voted had there beenno experiment in the district at all.In other words, Mr. Gosnell explains,if a larger proportion of the stimulatedcitizens voted, in a given district, thenof the non-stimulated citizens, itwould be reasonable to suppose thatthe experiment had some effect.First Registered WorkInasmuch as the previous study ofnon-voting showed that the greatI bulk of the non-voters were not reg¬istered, emphasis was placed on thegetting out of a bigger registrationThree d ys before the first day ofregistration the citizens selected forexperimental purposes were sent no¬tices to register w’hich gave full in¬formation regarding the time andplace of registration.In foreign communities these no¬tices were sent in the appropriatelanguage and upon all the notices at¬tention was called to the provisionsfor absent registration. Those whofailed to register on October 4, 1924,were sent second notices several daysbefore the last day of registration:one. informatory, calling attention tothe fact that there w'as but one moreopportunity to register and the otherof a hortatory character, making anappeal to civic pride.Urge Non-votersTo some of the women who hadexpressed a disbelief in voting, weresent in addition to the foregoing, twonotices from the Election Bulletin ofthe Illinois League of Women Voters.

In the past, the incomingpresident has been given the oath ofoffice in the council chambers, but itwas thought expedient to deliver theoath publicly, in front of the entireclass, in order that the class would beenabled to understand the functionsof its officers.The charge of responsibility which j rests upon the president was espe¬cially emphasized by the chaplain inthe assembly yesterday. He also ex¬plained the duty of the class to itspresident in keeping the class togetheras a single unit.Dr. Soares will also deliver the oathof office to the Sophomore, Junior andSenior presidents in their assembliesthis week.
