They will hold theirfirst meeting this afternoon at 4:30 inthe Alumni room of Ida Noyes Hall.Replaces College CouncilThe Freshman Advisory Board re¬places the old College Council, whichwas not sufficiently effective to meetthe demands made upon it. Theboard will serve as a committee incharge of dances and other social ac¬tivities for the first-year students.It will work under the direction ofthe Student Social Committee, ofwhich Henry Cutter is chairman.The Council of the Federation ofUniversity Women, and the Fresh¬man Orientation Committee, whichappointed the temporary board, con¬sist of those upperclassmen electedby the Federation to supervise its ac¬tivities, and six upperclassmen ap¬pointed by the dean of Students todirect orientation.Sophomore BoastNo Idle Threat;Freshman BathesThe proof of the pudding—The proof of the Sophomore proc¬lamation requesting all Freshmen to“remain bedecked with their GREENbadges” til Thanksgiving was offeredyesterday by a group of Sophomoresled by Bob Anderson and Phil Schner-ing.Dismayed by the many yearlingswho have not heeded the warning, An¬derson and group patrolled the cam¬pus. They cornered James Anderson(no relative) in Cobb. James was notbedecked.The sophomores carried James(see first picture below) to the Bot¬any pond, and there, one might say,pantsed him, and tossed him (see sec¬ond picture below) in among the al¬gae.James Anderson’s brother, by theway, is backstroke on the Universityswimming squad. With “Getting Our Bearings” asthe theme of his sermon, Charles W.Gilkey, dean of the Chapel, next Sun¬day morning will reopen the Sundayservices which were discontinued atthe summer convocation. Dan Smith,vice-president of the Chapel Council,will read the Lesson. Preceding tl\fservice, Frederic Marriott, carillon-eur and organist of the UniversityChapel, recently returned from studyin Belgium, will present a ten min¬ute organ recital. The UniversityChoir, under the direction of MarkEvans, following precedent, will singfrom the choir loft.Dr. Gilkey, in his sermon, keepsthe new student in mind, and will em¬phasize the values of the Chapel tothe student and its place and functionin all University life.Thousands inthe Central west will listen to thebroadcast of the services from elevento twelve over WGN.Gilkey a TrusteeAs its opening selection, the Choirhas chosen the 150th Plainsong. Itwill sing “Bless the Lord, 0 My Soul”by Ivanhoff, followed by the Bachchorale: “Grant Me Through Courage,Lord.”Dr. Gilkey became a trustee of theUniversity in 1919 and later*servedas a member of the faculty, as profes¬sor of Preaching in the DivinitySchool. In 1924 he was sent to Indiaas Barrows Lecturer to the studentcenters there.^ He has also servedas University preacher at most ofthe Eastern colleges and at the Cen¬tral and Western state universities.Through his travels. Dean Gilkey hasfound that the University Chapel hasbeen distinctive in its service only matching the chapels of Harvard,Yale, and Princeton. It has resistedthe temptation of most Universitiesto become parochial.Treats Problems of StudentsWhile he has been at the Chapel,Dr. Gilkey has specialized in the re¬ligious problems and the lives of stu¬dents. He has been equally activein secular life, serving on the Boardof Governors of International Houseand on the Board of Trustees ofGeorge Williams College in Chicago.In 1932 he was chairman of the Uni¬versity Emergency Relief Committee, Vanderbilt Pointsfor Chicago GameCommodores Bring ShiftyBacks, Big Line to Mid¬way.which, in its last five years, raised$76,000, partly to assist former em-^ White at right tackle in place of 200-ployees of the University.Dean Gilkey is serving as chair¬man of the “Re-thinking Chicago”group. He fills many engagementsevery year before teachers’ associa¬tions and high school assemblies andcommencements all over the centralwest.University’s High Ranking AttractsMost New Students, Survey ShowsWhat attracts freshmen to theUniversity? “The school’s high rank¬ing,” answered 296 out of 598 enter¬ing students in a recent survey ofthe freshman class. “The advan¬tages of the College plan” answered145 more, while only one frank indi¬vidual admitted his secret desire toplay football.Pressure from the family at homeseemed to be another important itemin the student’s choice, since 19future seniors listed it as their pri¬mary reason in choosing the college.“I didn’t want to go to Illinois,”stubbornly maintained one freshman.“I wanted to go to a midwestemschool,” rejoined another.The idea of a co-educational schoolapparently appealed strongly to thesocial instincts of still another en¬tering student while the “advantagesof the city” were uppermost in theminds of 11 interested in urban life.“The University is near home,” reas¬oned 46. “There is freedom fromroutine and restrictions” sighed 21with relief. Fourteen gifted speci¬ mens came because of scholarships.Of the University’s curricular at¬tractions, the medical school rankedfirst with 17 votes. The 1940 classalso includes six potential chemists,two physicists, two English majorsand three business men. One chose thelaw school for future study, onefound the Oriental Institute of par¬ticular fascination.It is possible to discover whatfurther factors contributed to thechoice of these 598 through thereasons for coming to the campus.More than half came under the in¬fluence of family advice. The Col¬lege plan again proved its popular¬ity as 49 per cent checked it as anitem in their college calculations.Enthusiastic upperclassmen now en¬rolled in school convinced 39 per centof the wisdom of choosing the Uni¬versity as their alma mater. Alumnipep talks influenced 33 per cent,while the advice of their high schoolteachers figured in the decision of88 per cent more. Literature, talksand movies about the University alsoinfluenced 32 per cent.Proof of Proclamation Even better than beating SouthernMethodist—the team he coached twoyears ago—on October 17 wouldcoach Ray Morrison like to see theMaroons on the short end of thescore Saturday afternoon.Pointing toward the encounterwith the Midway school since practicestarted early in September, the Com¬modore eleven arrives tomorrowmorning bringing with it the growingprestige of southern football. A heavyline, a flashy offense, a tricky attack-and individual stars such as DickPlasman, Sam Agee, “Baby” Ray, andJimmy Higgens will force Chicago toplay it’s best. Vanderbil spent muchof last week’s practice in workingout a defense for Chicago’s line pow¬er plays, shifts and passing attack.Although head coach Clark Shaugh-nessy has been drilling on pass de¬fense for the past week, the flingingcombination of Agee to Plasman willtest the tricks the Maroon mentormay have up his sleeve to pave theway for victory. Behind the power¬ful Commodore line will be anotherswivel-hipped back in the person ofArt Keene- who is the only sophomoreon the starting line-up.Following their opener Saturday,the Commodore line-up saw twochanges. First was the placing ofpound Bob Hall, running mate ofhuge 265-pound Buford Ray, outsideof rangy Dick Plasman, perhaps themost feared man on the black andgold forward wall. At right guardwill be Teasley, replacing 200-poundBill Hayes who was doped to havethe posting at the start of the season.FacultyArrangesAnnual BanquetforMondayNight Over the Top Team Enters Gamewith Full StrengthShift Line-up to OffsetSoutherners’ Weight inForward Wall.... at themodores.Big By LEWIS MILLERThe Maroon football team swingsinto full stride tomorrow with an in¬tersectional battle against a fast,powerful Vanderbilt eleven.Yesterdays practice was devotedprincipally to a long dummy scrim¬mage in which a freshman team ranVanderbilt plays with the varsity ondefense.

Jaeger will be on thespeaker’s rostrum. He comes to theUniversity this quarter from the chairof Classical Philology at the Univer¬sity of Berlin. His commentary onAristotle, published in 1923, is revo¬lutionary in that it is the first oneattempting to trace the impact ofcontemporary conditions in Greece onthought.Another of the new men who willaddress the faculty is Dr. DavidSlight, new head of the Psychiatrydivision of the University clinics, whocame to the University from McGillUniversity in Montreal. Dr. Slighthas a distinguished medical record,having served as a member of theCanadian Mental i^ygiene commissionwith distinction, and paving organ¬ized the courses in mental psychia¬try at McGill.Dr. E.

However, the Hawkeyes willmiss Dick Crayne, last year’s defens¬ive star.Nebraska StrongA Nebraska squad.

Bill Gillerlain andKen Petersen, both weighing slightlyunder two hundred pounds, will be atthe ends facing the task of block¬ing Vanderbilt’s huge tackles. How¬ever, Carl Frick and Bob Fitzgeraldwill both see plenty of action.Sappington and WrightEarl Sappington and ClarenceWright are slated as the starting as¬signments at tackles, with Bob John¬son ready for relief. Co-CaptainBud Jordan’s running mate at guardwill be Bill Bosworth, whose speedand power are expected to aid theMaroons on defense. Sam Whitesidewill be at center on offense and tackleon defense. The backfield. Lew Ham-ity at quarter, Fred Lehnhardt andBartlett at the halves, and Skoningat full, have the edge in weight onthe Commodores’ backs and matchthem in speed and passing ability.See Shift on DefenseThe Maroon defense will see moreshifting of men. Beside Whiteside’splaying defensive tackle, Bosworthwill be at defensive right end, andKendall Petersen at defensive half¬back. By this move, giving addedheight to the Chicago pass defense,Shaughnessy hopes to stop the flashyVanderbilt passing attack.Tomorrow’s game should discloseplenty of surprises from both teams.Coasting to easy victories last Sat¬urday, neither outfit exhibited any¬thing but straight football.

The Chapel Union isa new organization, formed late lastspring in response to a demand fora religious and socia’ service organ¬ization whose membership would beopen to all students.The Chapel Council, on the otherhand, is formed by a selected groupof students, is self-perpetuating, andhas as its dual function the discus¬sion of religious topics and assistingin conducting the Chapel services.On Sunday, October 11, the ChapelUnion will meet with PresidentWilkins of Oberlin College.Page Two THE DAILY MAROON, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 2, 1936Wc\t ^aroonFOUNDED IN 1»01Member Associated Collegiate PressThe Daily Maroon is the official student newspaper of theUniversity of Chicago, published mornings except Saturday, Sun¬day, and Monday during the Autumn, Winter, and Spring quartersby The Daily Maroon Company, 5831 University avenue.

Lewis MillerFriday, October 2, 1936No Ballyhoo!“There is no ‘ballyhooing* of star athletesfor purposes of augmenting gate receipts.”Thus last February did the Faculty Boardon the Coordination of Student Interests, com¬posed of leading lights in the University admin¬istration, state in no uncertain terms the Uni¬versity’s policy with regard to publicity givenits athletic teams. At the time, the pronounce¬ment seemed mainly an attempt to apologize,in a rather half-hearted way, for the spotlightthat had been turned unceasingly on the ex¬ploits of Jay Berwanger, both on and off thegridiron, during the entire football season lastfall. As far as the future was concerned, how¬ever, the statement did seem straightforwardenough to warrant the conclusion that the rulewould thenceforth be strictly adhered to bythe Athletic department.Apparently such was not the case. In thefirst fiood of pre-season publicity issued thissummer by the Athletic department (we areassuming that the Athletic department hasthe final word concerning its promotional ma¬terial, regardless of whether the Publicity of¬fice lends a hand in its preparation), the mainidea seemed to be to keep the name of Ber¬wanger, despite the fact that he had gradu¬ated, as closely connected as possible with the1936 Maroon team. The question, “Who willbe Berwanger’s ghost?” was widely circular¬ized. The same theme was used over and overagain in the stories sent to Chicago newspapers.The likeness of the Maroon ball carrier whichwas used to decorate posters advertising theChicago schedule bears a strange resemblance,whether intentional or not, to last year’s cap¬tain. No ballyhoo indeed!From another source, a none too bright re¬flection was recently cast on our Departmentof Athletics, when the International AmateurAthletic Federation cast out Jesse Owens’ newworld record of 10.2 seconds for 100 meters,made in the N.C.A.A. meet held at Stagg Fieldlast June. Reason: the track was found to bea few inches short. T. N. Metcalf, director ofAthletics, was in charge of the meet. ArchWard, writing in the Chicago Tribune, deliv¬ered the following richly deserved words otcensure: “When an athlete runs his heart outfor the purpose of bettering another man’stime it seems that the least officials could dowould be to insure that the measurements wereaccurate and track in best possible condition.”He could have fittingly suggested that the Ath¬letic department in the future borrow thephysicists’ new instrument which will measuredistances accurately up to 1-100,000,000 of aninch.On the question of its publicity, however,we cannot condemn the Athletic departmentWholeheartedly, although we do feel that therealm of good taste was seriously invaded.After all, inter-collegiate athletics at the Uni¬versity, as at most other schools, are still con¬ducted on a commercial basis, despite what the Faculty Board has to say about it. Footballmust still support the other sports, and theAthletic department is forced to use the mosteffective means at its command to make foot¬ball profitable.Our only plea is for consistency. Ballyhoo inour athletic publicity may be necessary, but ifthat is the case there is no justification forballyhoo in the University’s pronouncementsof policy. We can stand only so much of it.Discrimination onInefficiencyThe Information desk in the Bursar’s officeis there to serve members of the Universitycommunity—so they would have us believe.Among the duties of its personnel is that oftaking care of all University bulletin boardsand posting on these boards signs submitted tothem by campus organizations.The Socialist Club, a group recognized bythe Dean of Students’ office, had a meetingscheduled for 4 o’clock yesterday afternoon. OnTuesday representatives of this organizationtook signs advertising this meeting to the In¬formation desk and were told that they wouldbe taken care of immediately. The signs hadbeen approved by the Assistant Dean of Stu¬dents. The signs were not put up Tuesday.They were not put up Wednesday, despite fre¬quent visitations by students in the group tothe desk. After repeated protests on the part ofclub members, they were finally placed on theboards yesterday afternoon about two hoursbefore the meeting. No excuses were offered.Signs for the Roosevelt for President Club,which held a similar meeting this week, wereplaced on the bulletin boards promptly.In the light of these circumstances, thewhole affair looks suspiciously like a case of de¬liberate political discrimination on the part ofthe administration of the Bursar’s office. If itwas not discrimination, it was certainly grossinefficiency.The Travelling BazaarBy CODY PFANSTIEHLThe Cap and ($3,50) Gk)wn isn’t a newspaper.

The Hearts andFlowers story happened this way:When the proctor announced that all books, ponies,etc., be passed forward or backward or sideward, onefreshman (who has taken comprehensives in all thesurveys this week without having taken the courses)threw a last June exam booklet, that he had been study¬ing, on the seat behind him. The proctor, passing outthe exam booklets, mistook the thrown away copy foran extra exam, put it on the top of his pile, and passedit out to a fellow in the back row.The freshman whose paper caused the disturbance,while telling the story to us, confided that he “reallyfelt awfully sorry" for the fellow but he couldn’t sayanything because the proctor had announced that no onewas to talk after the exam started.The ABC’sPurpose of EducationIt must be remembered that the purpose of educa¬tion is not to fill the minds of students with facts; it isnot to reform them, or amuse them, or make them ex¬pert technicians in any field. It is to teach them tothink, if that is possible, and to think always for them¬selves. Democratic governments rest on the notionthat the citizens will think for themselves. It is ofthe highest importance that there should be someplaces where they can learn how to do it.Robert M. Hutchins,No Frie'iidly Voice. Today on theQuadranglesFRIDAY, OCTOBER 2Debate Union.

FRIDAY, OCTOBER 2, 1936 Page ThreeOffthe PressBy MARTIN GARDNER• ♦ *“This Was Life,” a neatly-turnednovel by Jaries Weber Linn, appearedlast winter shortly after the publi¬cation of his biography of Jane Ad-dams, It was a story about life atthe University in the nineties, an in¬tricate mixture of fact and fiction,and definitely autobiographical. JerryGrant, the central character, was car¬ried through part of his college car¬eer (in days when Linn himself wasa struggling undergraduate on theMidway); and the book closed whenDorothy, with whom Jerry was some¬what enamored, married somebodyelse. But here and there were sen¬tences that vaguely called for, andhinted at, a sequel. "Winds over theCampus” completes the story.Forty years elapse between the twovolumes. Jerry Grant, now a pro¬fessor of English at the University,has also married somebody el.se. Justas “This was Life” was saved frombeing merely a well-written bit ofentertainment by the circumstancessurrounding Jerry and Dorothy, so“Winds over the Campus'’ is rescuedfrom the same fate by revelationsconcerning the subsequent history ofthese same two characters. Dorothy’smarriage turned out badly (as Jerry,in the fir.st book, imagined it would),whereas Jerry’s marriage had beenvery successful. High point of thenovel (in my estimation) is the meet¬ing and conversation of Jerry andDorothy after their forty years of in¬dependent existences.Apart from this central theme, thenovel like its predecessor is packedwith people and incidents that upper¬classmen will quickly recognize.Prominent faculty members, and cer¬tain students (who may or may notall be real) are portrayed with rareskill and understanding. Take thefollowing lines, for example, thathave reference to Robert Morse Lov¬ett—• * ♦“.. .He is an aesthete with the pas¬sions of a crusader. His traditionshave always been at war with hisdreams. He has an instinct ftrr or¬der, and a hatred of tyranny. He isa scholar and an administrator whosesympathies have forced him into theleadership of forlorn hopes. The en¬emies of Christ crucified Christ, butCabot has built his own cross, andhung himself on it.”Chapter nine features a conversa¬tion between Jerry and PresidentHutchins, “contempuously keen, cold¬ly competent, amazingly certain ofhimself.” Since an indebtedness toT. *' Smith is acknowledged on thefiyleaf, one suspects the senator ofhaving had a hand in formulating thissection.Those who followed the Walgreeninvestigation closely, will revel inchapter twenty-five in which thecourt room scene (Mrs. Dilling et al)are described with more accuracythan imagination. The brief but vitri¬olic conversation between Jerry andWalgreen on a descending elevator.SAI[Chicago's finest Chinese American^RestaurantThe University of Chicago stu¬dents have by popular acclaimchosen HOE SAI GAI to be theofficial Chlnese-Amerlcan restaur¬ant.If you desire the finest Amer-can dishes or quaint Chinese deli-casies, you will be more than sat¬isfied with our service.Come in and enjoy the congen¬ial modernistic atmosphere.75 W. RANDOLPH ST.Just the place for after the show for instance, actually occurred almostexactly as you find it in the book.James Weber Linn has a geniusfor making characterization throughdialogue. Both novels are filled withan amazing abundance of conversa¬tion that furnishes an excellent pan¬orama of undergraduate thinging asit was and is. “Winds over the Cam¬pus” has blowing through it all thewinds of religious scepticism, chang¬ing moral attitudes, new ideologies,and the general chaos and bewilder¬ment so characteristic of any modernuniversity—a confirmation of muchthat President Hutchins has recentlybeen writing magazine articles about.« * *Novels of this sort, that Is, novelsfashioned out of personal reminis¬cences, are usually dangerous tohandle. It is difficult to put togetheran artistic plot out of odd scraps ofactual fact—but Linn has done anadmirable job. Continuity is sup¬plied by filling the gaps with fiction,and the whole is shaped aboult atheme of real vitality and substance.That theme is the autobiography ofa man that too many students oncampus enjoy contacts with, but failadequately to understand. Mr. Linnhas a deceptive personality; behindhis careless demeanor there is no idlemind. As Mrs. Grant is made to sayto her husband—“You stand behind a thin curtain...Without a light behind, nobodycan see you.*’In brief, “Winds over the Campus”is required campus reading.

AgeeFreshman Interest inRifle Team IndicatesGood Maroon SquadThe interest evidenced by thetwenty-three freshmen men and wo¬men who shouldered their gnins atthe rifle club freshman meet duringthe past week indicates that the Uni¬versity should be well represented bymarksmen this year. As tentativelyreported in yesterday's Maroon, Ro¬land Berndt and Thelma Iselmanwalked off with first place honors formen and women in the yearlingschool.Right behind Berndt were MyronDavis, Wilton Wass, and novice Juni¬or Cornelius who was shooting forthe first time. In the women’s divi¬sion Katherine Johnston carried offsecond place honors. Carl Henrik-son, assistant dean of the BusinessSchool and faculty sponsor of thegroup, is hoping to use Miss Iselmanand Miss Johnson as the nucleus of awomen’s rifle team this year. Sever¬al of his “Annie Oakley” protegesfrom last year have not enrolled thisquarter so he will be forced to startfrom scratch and build his teamaround these two newcomers. He re¬quests that all University women whoare interested in this team see himimmediately.Last year the University club en¬tered many inter-sectional rifle meetsand achieved recognition in rifle cir¬cles. This year it has expanded itsinstruction program to include pistolshooting, and is scheduling as manymeets as possible. Highlight of thisyear’s activity will be the annual in¬vitation meet held in the Fieldhouse.At this time the country’s leadingmarksmen will come to Chicago to testtheir weapons and ammunition in in¬door, long range shooting.For those interested in shooting atthe club’s range in the West stands,the range hours will be published inthe Daily Maroon next week. Gunsand targets are furnished by the Uni¬versity and ammunition may be pur¬chased at the range.Norgren Issues Call forFreshman Footballers“We have barely enough freshmenout for two teams” stated NelsonNorgren, freshman football coach,yesterday.With only 25 men reporting for theyearling squad, practice, already be-grun, will increase as the quarter goeson till the new squad is deemed fitto scrimmage the varsity. Accordingto Norgren, prospective freshmangridders are urged to report as soonas possible either to him or directlyto the cage in the field-house wherethey will have their suits issued them. Maroon MentorClark Shaughnessy.. .fie is worried.Big Ten(Continued from Page 1)With one of the smoothest passingattacks in the country, Marquette willengage the University of W’isconsinsquad at Madison tomorrow. Aftertheir victory over the South DakotaState Jackrabbits last Saturday theBadgers are hoping for breaks, butthe Hilltoppers powerful and polish¬ed backfield and improved line shouldbe more than a match for the Wis¬consin squad just recovering fromthe fiasco in the athletics departmentlast year. It was the Marquetteteam that rolled over Wisconsin 33-0last season.Having beaten the Washington Un¬iversity Bears every time it has en¬countered them, the University of Il¬linois squad is preparing for theirbattle tomorrow. Bolstered by prom¬ising sophomores and the 9-6 defeat ofDe Paul last week, the Illini will goon the field with a small, fast team.Pointing toward their big intersec¬tional battle with Southern Californiain Urbana next Saturday, the Illinisophomores should gain much moreexperience by their play tomorrow.With Purdue being the only confer¬ence eleven not playing tomorrow,Ohio State enters its first big con¬test of the year when it meets theNew York University squad at Col¬umbus.McGillivray Holds FirstPractice for SwimmersAlthough a definite schedule willnot be arranged for several weeks,swimming coach Edward McGillivraystarted practice for the swimmingand diving men yesterday. Few newmen are expected to win berths fromthe returning veterans.Led by Bob Bethke, the water polo-ists are out to catch that elusive goal,the championship, which slipped pastthe Maroons last year when they lostto Illinois, the conference champion.Although no date has been set forthe meet, the University team willmeet Illinois at Champaign and takeon Northwestern, Wisconsin and Iowahere. Northwestern, Chicago, andIllinois have dominated the Big Tencompetition every year, one of themeither winning or sharing the title. Freshmen TrackProspects BoostMerriam*s HopesCoach Ned Merriam is in a smilingmood after viewing his freshmantrack prospects.Although as yet not many fresh¬man track candidates have reported,several yearling candidates hold highschool records which justify a predic¬tion that they will bolster future Ma¬roon track squads.From Iowa come John Davenport,Bob Wasem, and Russel Parsons.Davenport specializes in the JesseOwen’s combination of sprints andbroad jump. Last year he won theIowa state high school championshipin the broad jump and placed secondin the 100 yard dash. Bob Wasem, abrother of Dick Wasem of last year’ssquad competes in the hurdles and440. Parsons has also had a good highschool record.State 880 yard run king his junioryear and second place winner in the440 yard clash last year, Ken Spon-sel of Gary, Indiana is another prom¬ising yearling who will be seen speed¬ing over the cinder path for the Ma¬roons. Charles Powell, also of Gary,has not yet reported to Merriam, butwas runner-up to Sponsel in his heatof the Indiana state high school raceslast year.Wants Yearlings to ReportCoach Merriam will be able to tellmore about the potential power ofhis greenhorn squad after footballseason is over, but meanwhile hewould like to have all freshman menwho are interested in track and whohave not donned the moleskins to re¬port to him as soon as possible.With indoor track practice sched¬uled to start after Thanksgiving, asurvey of the sophomore men avail¬able to Coach Merriam reveals no ex¬ceptional stars but several goodsteady performers. Although he hasnever entered men in the event, theMaroon track tutor is considering a400 meter hurdle team because of in¬creased interest shown in the event.Lawson VersatileMost versatile of the second yearmen is Harvey Lawson whose pastrecord includes 22 feet six inches forthe broad jump, 175 feet in the jav¬elin, and a time of 15.6 in the 120high hurdles.
