UNDERGRAD- .UATE COUNCJ'THREATENS 'ROON FRF’’ ^Vol. 28. No. 99. UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO. THURSDAY, APRIL 26, 1928 UNDERGRAD¬UATE COUNCILTHREATENS MA-ROON FREEDOM.1Main StreetBy A) £. WiddifieldTHE U.NDERGRADUATE COUN¬CIL, that august and benign bodydistributing justice throughout the jquadrangles, sat in their cloistered >chamber yesterday and threw upon jthe table a precious plan for the re- jmaking of one campus daily news- jpaper, one monthly magazine, and a jyearbook. The afternoon sun shonethrough the gothic window and fellupon the blonde head of Mr. ArnoldJohnson, sitting, like Sir Galahad,at the head of the table. It was THF^Mr, Arnold Johnson who once saidhe could stop the publication of TheDaily Mtiroon within twenty-fourhours. And so the King called hisknights and ladies about him. andtaking his gavel in his hand, he be¬gan expounding on his great planfor a bigger and better set of campuspublications.Yes. into the minds of this saintlycompany had been born a plan where¬by they, brave souls, could take thereins in their hands and drive thepublications mares through the col¬lege years.What right has the staff of TheDaily Maroon to pick its managingeditor, its business manager, its copyboys, its proof readers, they askedthemselves. Oh they are a merry lotthese super-mundane members ofThe Undergraduate council. Ach!* * *It was the misfortune of your hum¬ble servant to be relieved of his votein the .August Body because he hadn’tcome to some of the meetings atwhich they discussed such profoundquestions as: Shall we give a cos¬tume party in Bartlett gym, or givea Soph-Frosh Hop? Shall the Wash¬ington Prom programs be lilly whiteor daisy blue. Had we ought to put"Sing on 0 Beloit’’ in the MaroonSong Book or keep it restricted tosuch old favorites as "I Love youCornell I do?’’ Who made the mostgraft on the Interclass ball last year?And so far into the amber tints ofmany an afternoon.And now the Royal Bench of theProphets comes along and will tryto foist upon an unsuspecting ad¬ministration a ridiculous conglomera¬tion of miscellaneous ballyhoo thatthey call "a plan for bettering cam¬pus publications.’’ Every year somesuch situation as this arises. An ard¬ent senior suddenly becomes seizedby the idea that he ought to dosomething to be remembered by, orkick up some kind of a fuss wherebyhe falls into the limelight. Not thatI am casting any mauve reflectionson the august body.*Mr. Arnold Johnson, the astute Mr,Rouse, the up and coming Mr. CharlesCutter, the bigger and beter Mr. Har¬ry Hagey, the temperamental Mr.Charles Murphy, the penurious Mr.Carl Hendrickson, the coy Miss King,the silent Miss Kendall, the retiringMiss Herzman, the innocent Miss Al¬len, the shy Miss Kresse, the quietMiss Hartman are all honorable souls*Nevertheless I am sorry to say thatI do not think them the best author¬ities on how manage the editorialdepartment of a newspaper, or tendto the election of a Woman’s sportseditor, or sell ads.And so I would suggest that if anyone wants to reform The Daily Ma¬roon iet him come over here and Isweat over it for four years. By thattime, if he hasn’t forgotten all hisreforms, he may have a few faintglimmerings as to how the situationcould be improved. But if he doesn’twant to sweat over a news desk, butwould rather go shoot a lot of hotair, let him get on the Undergraduatecouncil. They just dote on it over 'there.f WAR: COUNCIL VERSUS MAROONNobel Winners toMeet Across NetAlbert A.

The informal spiritof the affair was exemplified by theinvitations, which were handbills.Funds are being conserved for theFreshman-Sophomore yacht party,so no refreshments will be served.Roger Baldwin ToSpeak Here TodayRoger N. Baldwin, director of theAmerican Civil Liberties Union, andan outstanding theoretical anarchist,will discuss "The War on the Work¬er at Home and Abroad’’ today at4:30 P. M. in Classics 10.The problems that Mr. Baldwinwill discuss center mainly around thelack of consideration for the workerin tlie United States in spite of thehigh wage standard and general pros¬perity of industry in this country.The labor situation in the UnitedStates is considered critical by in¬vestigators from other countries. —WE OBJECT!—THE DAILY MAROON objects to the adoption of the planswhich the Undergraduate Council will recommend to the Faculty-student Board of Organizations next Saturday morning at nineo’clock.The Daily Maroon believes that the plan not only violates allthe principles of the ideal newspaper but allows for an obnoxiouspaternalism which will throttle the morale and the spirit of thefifty-four members of its staff.The Daily Maroon believes that the Undergraduate Council isNOT QUALIFIED to construct a plan which governs a highlysocialized unit of campus activity.The Daily Maroon believes that the mass opinion of its staff,an expression coming from each and every member, is much morewise and just than any opinion of a group who knows nothingof a newspaper and were elected to position through social poular-ity and politics. The opinion of every member of the staff of TheDaily Maroon, as expressed in letter bearing fifty-four of itsmembers’ signatures, is that the proposed paternalism is unjust,unfair, malicious, and utterly ridiculous. They object to the madpolitical tangle in all its labyrinthine construction. They believethe Undergraduate Council has drawn up the most utterly stupidpiece of legislation that ever went over their table.What good is a paper if it is not Independent? Do we want amamby-pamby publication with no life, no editorial spunk, no in¬dividuality? We admit we make serious mistakes now and then,that we have often violated good-taste, but we are convinced thatthis plan, if adopted, will make The Daily Maroon a much worsenews medium than it is under the present regime. It makes noprovisions for con-ecting the actual shortcomings of the paper. Itmakes room for many more.The University has a Publication’s advisor whose advice andcensorship we have always readily accepted. We object in no wayto any power of veto which he might be given, believing that hewill use good judgment with this power. We believe that throughthis advisor contact with the administration can be successfullyn^aintained.The Daily Maroon believes that the present financial systemis adequate. It believes that its own Board should decide whosework is of most value. This year we increased a certain salaryfrom $25 to $75, although it was stipulated in the constitutionthat the salary should be the former. We are paying salaries tomen who occupy positions that never before existed because theyare doing work that deserves remuneration. Who should knowbetter who is contributing the most to the paper than those whoare in there running it. It seems utterly ridiculous that thesethings should be taken out of the hands of the people who haveto work in the light of their conditions and be put in the handsof a disinterested Board of Publications composed of three facultymembers from the Board of Organizations, FOUR MEMBERFROM THE UNDERGRADUATE COUNCIL, THE PRESIDENTOF THE COUNCIL, the student auditor. It looks to The DailyMaroon as if the Undergraduate council was trying to pull acoup d’etat and get control of the publications. Their plan fordaddying The Daily Maroon is full of such phrases as “The Un¬dergraduate Council must pass on all work of the Board of Pub¬lications” and “NO STAFF MEMBERS OF ANY PUBLICATIONSHALL SIT ON THE BOARD OF PUBLICATIONS UNLESSREQUESTED TO APPEAR FOR AN INTERVIEW BY THEBOARD,” and, of course, “ALL PUBLICATIONS ARE DIRECT¬LY CONTROLI.ED BY THE BOARD OF PUBLICATIONS.^ Thisboard RUNS the publications. The staff of The Daily Maroon isallowed to stay around to do the work but if they want some copypaper they have to call a meeting of the Publications Board andvote on it. The most untrained and disinterested bystander cansee that the whole thing is a gross and stupid plan, an attempton the part of a hitherto unimportant student group to bloat it¬self with power.THE DAILY MAROON OBJECTS TO THIS PATERNALISM.WE BELIEVE THAT TO HARNESS US UP TO SUCH A PLANIS UNFAIR AND UNDEMOCRATIC. WE ASK THE BOARD OFORGANIZTIONS TO CONSIDER OUR POINTS, FOR WEARE CONVINCED OF THEIR RIGHTEOUSNESS TO THEMAN. ■ Editor of PhoenixScores Council Act"I have always considered theCouncil the most pointless of ailthe useless campus organizations,"said George Morgenstern, editorof The Phoenix. "This latest BigIdea which has emanated from theStar Chamber indicates a franticlast-minUte attempt to have some¬thing to point to in the way of ac¬complishment before the close ofthe year sends Mr. Johnson and hisboys to the scrap heap."The silliness of the proposal ismore obvious than even the usualrun of ideas that occur to theCouncil. The organization, itseems to me, is just a bunch ofjaundiced individuals whom thereis no call for, trying by suchmeans as this proposal to keep upan existence whose best days, if itever had any, were over long ago."FROSH DISCUSSCLASS ACTIONSBoucher, Moon AddressFifty YearlingsStriking: an innovation in the an¬nals of University activities, theFreshman class conference will meetSaturday, April 28 at 2 in the EastTower Room of the Y.

' IBODY ATTEMPTSTO CHANGE PLANFOR CONTROL OFCAMPUJ^ PAPERWiddifield and HarrisAttack UndergradCouncil In HotSessionHeated controversy between TheUndergraduate council and TheDaily Maroon ensued for three hoursyesterday afternoon when the stu¬dent executive body attempted to re¬make the organization of the campusdaily.President Arnold Johnson of theCouncil read an elaborate plan wherein he hoped "elections, distribution ofprofits, circulation and good willwould be benefitted a thousand foldfor the Maroon.”The Daily Maroon believed thatthe plan the council was about torecommend for adoption by the Fac¬ulty-student Board of Organizationsand Publications was unneqessary, un-j wise and unjust. The Council list¬ened to the arguments of Editor Wid¬difield and Business Manager Harrisand made some slight changes in theirplan, although the Daily heads ob¬jected to the whole scheme on thepoint of principle. Heated argumentensued on all sides, often flying offon a tangent and involving situationsand conditions quite beside the pointat hand.WHAT THE COUNCIL WANTEDThe institution of a plan for TheDaily Maroon, The Phoenix and TheCap and Gown which provided fora Board of Publications which wouldelect the staff members of the pub¬lications and take care of all remun¬erations including signing of con¬tracts, salaries, paying of bills, andso forth. This Board was to act in astrictly paternal capacity and be un-. der the control of the Undergraduatecouncil, which, in turn, was subjectto the decisions of the Board ofOrganizations composed of both fac¬ulty members and students. Theplan itself was elaborate in the ex¬treme and completely subordinatedthe publications. The Daily Maroonstrenuously objected to this plan,WHAT THE DAILY MAROONWANTEDThe Daily Maroon asked that thefranchise be kept in the hands ofthe staff alone, that, as far as re¬muneration was concerned, the pres¬ent system be retained, which is asfollows: The University auditor hascomplete check and jurisdiction overthe daily’s books. Miss Finn is hiredby the administration for this pur¬pose and keeps constant check on thebusiness of Daily Maroon, which, .shereports, is, at the present writing, inexcellent financial condition. TheDaily Maroon held that there was noneed of all the changes planned bythe council. It objected to beingamalgamated with the Cap and Gownwhich is said to be in a decrepitcondition, and with the Phoenixwhich is in a class by itself. The DailyMaroon held that the publicationwould lose its personality, its morale,and its hope for improvement if sucha paternalism was invoked upon it.WHAT HAPPENEDThe Daily Maroon succeeded inbringing about a change in a part ofthe tenets in the Council’.i plan, gov¬erning elections.

Hislecture was conducive to a deeper and profounder appreciationof architect Bertram Goodhue’s masterpiece.Dr. Vogt began his lecture with a discussion of architecturalstyle which he said, intimates, as does style in literature, some¬thing of the ma.ior disposition and attitude to life of the artist,of the nation and of the time in which the work of art was pro¬duced. The Roman buildings, for instance, convey the sense ofpractical power, power of organization and administrative com¬petence. Gothic architecture expresses not only fervor and mys¬ticism but intellectuality as well. Nothing is more logical thanthe structural system of a Gothic building. It is composed ofthe principles of thrust and counterbalance: the structural mem¬bers are decorative and most of the decorative parts are struc¬tural. The great French facades are especially highly intellectualin their articulation; one might almost read the scholastic phil¬osophy of Thomas Aquinas, the medieval rationale, in the facadeof the Notre Dame of Paris.Dr. Vogt emphasized two conspicuous qualities of the newchapel: the exceptional height and length of the building as com-ared to lecture halls and theaters, and the extraordinary breadthof scale in design as compared with medieval Gothic buildings.These qualities, he said, suggested two corresponding aspects ofreligion represented by the words apprehension and comprehen¬sion.Religion was discussed as the effort to apprehend realitywhatever its character might be. Apprehension is the experienceand knowledge of the seer, of the lover, of the devotee. The extra¬ordinary length and height of the chapel assist the worshipper toachieve an apprenhension of reality.Dr. Vogt suggested that many persons are not sympatheticwith this mode of approach in religion and that the chapel pos¬sessed a iiiarked intimation of a different approach. Religionis for many the all-comprehending experience. It the attempt totranscend the partialities of provincial life, of ordinary toil andof separistic categories of thought. It is the attempt of the wholeman to respond to his total world in some noble way. It is theremembrance of all things and the exercise of all faculties.

Secondly, the many figures repre¬senting the secular career, the scientist, the merchant, the states¬man and others, the five great arches and the bold shadows castby their soffits remind the worshiper of the all comprehendingnature, of the recollective process in his religious experience.Dr. Von Ogden Vogt’s lecture was a good one. The meagerundergraduate attendance was distressing. > (Continued from page 1)Student Publications and Organiza¬tions next Saturday morning at nineo’clock for either acceptance or re¬jection.

The Maroonsare out to regain the leadership forChicago teams, have won more onemile relay championships at the Pennrelays than any other school in thecountry.The time trials for the team heldtoday were exceptionally fast, withall the varsity men running exceptGist. Schulz finished first in 50.2seconds which is a new record forthe new track. Hayden was secondin the fast time of 50.3 second.s. Rootwas next with 50.5. closely followedby Apitz who finished in 50.8. Capt.Dick Williams finished fifth, abouttwo seconds behind Apitz. The spacewas extremely fast and speaks wellfor the team’s chances at the Relays.The team which will go to the Pennrelys will consi.st of Gist, Schulz, Hay_den, and Root. Besides running inthe mile relay, the team will enterthe sprint medley. On Friday Schulzwill run the quarter, Hayden andRoot—the 220, and Gist the halfmile. In trials yesterday, Gist breez¬ed through his event in 1 ;57. TheMaroons’ showing stamps them as oneof the most powerful teams enteredand it is not unlikely that they willwin both events, the mile relay andthe sprint medley.Chicago will also send a team totake part in the sprint medley at theDrake relay.s. Apitz will run thequrter, Cody and one other man tobe selected from Gartside, .Armstrongand Libby, will run in the 220, andCapt. Williams will be the Chicagohope in the half mile. This team isalso very strong and ought to placenear the top. Maroon rooters areplugging for a victory at both thePenn and the Drake relays and fromearly indications their hopes may begratified.The Chicago mile relay team whichwill be sent to Penn ought to do themile in something less than 3:20which would shatter the best timethat any Chicago team has ever run.The Maroons set a record by run¬ning the mile erlay in 3:21.5 at Pennin 1911, this record being equalledby another Chicago relay team at theconference meet in 1915.WANTEDB-flat Sax and CornetforEuropean College TourPhone—Bob LotzSunnyside 5203Surprise Yourself!Drop into theQUEEN RESTAURANTA Special Plate LuncheonHOME COOKING1208 E. 61st StSavory Food - ReasonablePricesLUNCHEON SERVICEatThe University Drug Co.Comer 61st and Ellis Ave.Phone Fairfax 4800A Kosher Tongue or Cora BeefSandwich, 20c.

I was not smoking at themoment, and the aroma of his tobaccointrigued me exceedingly. For twelveyears I had smoked Edgeworth with¬out being tempted by any other brand,but the fragrance emanating from thepipe of the gentleman beside me wasso agreeable that I could not resistthe temptation to speak of it.“That is wonderfully fragrant to¬bacco you have there,” I remarked.“Would you mind telling me the nameof it?”“It is Edgeworth,” he answered.We then congratulated each otherupon our mutual good taste, and Idecided that I would continue to usehis brand and mine.Sincerely yours,S.

And so wegive him the open forum, and cockour ears to his Conversations in limbo.It was a fairly cool day in Hell,a.s cool days in Hell go, and as Istumbled out of a refreshing plungeinto an invigorating lake of moltenlava, I noticed a placard posted overa banquet hall marked, “Conversa¬tion Club Meets Here Tonight.”Since I had l)een in Peridition onl>a very short while, (a few hundredyears in all) 1 made a mental note ofthe meeting hour with the intentionof being present.That evening when I strolled intothe club ball only a tew figures satat the table. One of the gentlemenwas saying;T say, it is the everlasting privilegeof the foolish to be governed by thewdse; to be guided in the right pathby those who know it better thanthey. This is the first right of man;compared with . . . . ”“Oh'” interrupted the other man,ft figure in the robe of the church,“I have no confidence in philosopherswho cannot help being religious, andare Christians by implication. Theysit at home and react forward to hit without grasping, and are some¬times as confident about shadows asabout realities.”As he finished this little speech,in strolled a rather tall raw-bonedlad, who spoke in a tender tone:distances which astonish us; but they“So you are at it again, eh? Praydon’t bother, why worry over thefruits of your labors, experience isthe thing and an end in itself. Theworld is so full of a number ofthings.”“Your analysis is too broad,”spoke up an academic looking soulwhose face was bordered with side¬burns. “I agree with you on the ex¬perimental emphasis, but is not con¬duct three-fouidhs of life?”“Possibly, but I think you put ita little high,” retoi’ted the tendersoul.The be-whiskered face: “I supposeour culture was too unkind and therewas net enough light.’’“There you go—the same old blah;full of sweetness, full of light.”‘Blah?—^that’s the pursuit of per¬fection—the pursuit of sweetnessand light, to make all men live insuch an atmosphere where they mayuse ideas, as it uses them itself,freely—nourished, and not hound bythem.”There was a stir at the end of thehall and a whimsical looking soulspoke: “I disagree with you, old side¬burns. Every moment some formgrows perfect in hand or face; sometone on the hills or sea is choicerthan the rest; some mood of passionor insight or intellectual excitementis irresistibly real and attractive tous—but for the moment only. Notthe fruit of experience but experi¬ence itself is the end.”The tender soul applauded, butwas silenced by a bearded gentle¬man. who said:“May I add a wmrd? While in allthings that we see or do, we are to desire perfection, and strive for it;we are, nevertheless, not to set themeaner thing in its narrow accom¬plishment above the nobler thing, inits mighty progress; not to esteemsmooth minuteness above shatteredmajesty; not to pi'efer mean victoryCO honorable defeat; not to lower thelevel of our aim, that we may themore surely enjoy the complacencyof success.”That should have settled the question, but I was perturbed to hear this“come-back”!“Yes, to man himself Nature hasgiven, in high measure, the seeds ofa noble endowment; and to unfold iihas been forbidden him. A subtle,lynx-eyed intellect, tremulous, piou-'sensibility to all good and all beau¬tiful; truly a ray of empyrean light.—but embedded in such weak laxityof character, in such indolences an.iesuriences as had made strangework with it. Once more the tragiistory of a high endowment with aninsufficient will.

Do you still cling to that! 1have only one thing to say to you.Every word uttered by a speakercosts him some physical loss and torefer to ‘light’ again he burns thatothers may have light—so much elo-ouence, so much of his body resolvedinto carbonic acid, water and urea.Shult up and save yourself.”But his command was unnecessaryfor the gong was sounding for thechange in shift at the furnaces sothey all filed out in lock-step to theirplaces before the fiery blast of Truth,the eternal furnace.CLASSIFIED ADSTO RENT—Exceptional room, ad¬joining bath.
