Creation of a vigorous campus community.2. Abolition of intercollegiate athletics.3. Progessive politics.4. Revision of the College Plan.5. A chastened president.Philosopher KingsA professor in politics is rare indeed, buttwo professors’ in politics is what the Univer¬sity faces with both Thomas Vernor Smith,(better known as T.V.) and James WeberLinn (better known as Teddy), professed can¬didates for Democratic nominations in the ap¬proaching elections.T.V. has been backed for the post of con-gressman-at-large from Illinois by GovernorHorner and his political friends, and Linn hasbeen put up for the local state senatorship bythe same group.Illinois politics is no rose garden just atpresent. Two political machines are strivingfor dominance, on the one hand the old estab¬lished Kelly-Nash machine that dominatesChicago, and on the other, the nascent Hornermachine that dominates down state.T.V. has been endorsed by the Hornergroup, yet he is not a Horner man. In his fouryears in the State Senate he has trod freely onthe toes of both Horner and Kelly, showing anindependence of spirit unwelcome to any polit¬ical machine.Yet he has been kicked upstairs, a longway upstairs. Why ?Horner’s machine is young and w^eak as yet.The rising machine cannot afford to risk losingits adherents by strict discipline. It has toback an occasional maverick. The scandals andresentment which incompetence in officearouses cannot be risked by a young machine.It has to put up capable, and to a degree, hon¬est men for office.It is from this situation that T.V. hasprofited. In his Senate career he has consist¬ently followed his owm lights, refused to playpolitics with the boys. But his system w’orksonly when there is a split in the politicalmachine. A single man cannot buck a smooth¬ly running machine. Honesty and integrity arestill as foreign to politics as they w^re in Lin¬coln Steffen’s time.The philosopher king, that T.V. no doubtdreams of, is still as far off as he w’as w’henPlato first cried for him.Evidence is the very method by whichSmith secured nomination. He has achievedsomew’hat of a national reputation in recentyears for his radio speeches, and w^on for him¬self the good graces of the national Democrat¬ic committee by his speeches in Roosevelt’scampaign for reelection tw'o years ago. It isto this national influence that T.V. ow’es hisHorner backing. His honesty and competenceare secondary, if weighed at all.Vol. 38 FEBRUARY 8, 1938 No. 65®l|L' ^atl^ ^arnoitFOIINDKD IN 1901Member Associated Collegiate PressThe Daily Maroon is the ofTicial student newspaper of the Uni¬versity of Chicago, published mornings except Saturday, Sunday,and Monday during the Autumn.

The Beta party has a most in¬teresting history. In fact, it dates originally back tothe days when the Betas took the fatal plunge intothe depths of higher learning.. .which left them mag¬nificent in rhetoric, but a little rusty on the ballroomtechnique.Grant Atkinson tried mo.st desperately to round upa little social dancing class in the front parlor, but tono avail...The Betas just wouldn’t show up, theirhearts weren’t in social dancing, besides a Brahmssymphony certainly didn’t seem to put over the BigApple.That left the Betas divided, .half could dance andwanted to, the other half couldn’t or wouldn’t. Ohdear, said the social committee, we must think up somesnappy new ideas for our parties, which will make thepeople who delight in dancing happy without dancing..help the other rusty half to forget their ranklingsocial inadequacy. In addition we mu.st make ourparties:A. Inexpensive,B. Something in which everybody can take part.(They are very categorical and neat in their thinking,you will note.)La.«:t Fall they solved the dratted problem by havingan Easter egg hunt on Hallowe’en, which nobody candeny is different. Friday night, the latest brainstormwas a theater party.4c « «Betas told wide-eyed dates that the theater was theorder of the evening, then arrived on the .scene, beganto meditate, came to the conclusion that the moderntheater was a degenerate form of drama, that theywould revert to Aristophanes "The Clouds” and per¬form it all by themselves, in undegenerated form. Sud¬denly a skeleton popped from the closet, the memoryof a rushing function a few years ago when NelsFuqua read "Lysistrata,” promptly causing little rush-ees to rush home and pen notes to mama about thedirty stories told at the Beta house, even though Soc¬rates himself had a part. So Friday night they finallycompromised on "Peter Pan,” which just can’t be con¬sidered obscene, even though you do possess the mostevil of minds. But just in case, Norman MacLean,who knows all about plays, came along as chief censorand critic, escorted by Mrs. MacLean who knitted allevening.A scavenger hunt for props started the evening.(Which covered clauses A and B beautifully.) Hard¬est item to find was the bright side on which Peter Panalways looked. The only catastrophes incurred duringthe performance came when the dog drank up thelagoon, the curtain collapsed, and a bow and arrowcouldn’t be found for love nor money (scorned bygood Betas anyway).. .poor Wendie consequently hadto die most mysteriously without even being shot.Parts were drawn by lot. Tom Stauffer was a mush¬room, Bill Corcoran played the lusty part of CajitainHook in a nice, conversational tone of voice. Bob Brum¬baugh, replete with .short trou.sers and long hairy legs,was none other than Baby.Which goes to prove a budding new campus hypo¬thesis,. .that dancing is not the only form of enter¬tainment known to mankind, that .«ocial drama hasfinally found its true medium in a fraternity house.AND NOW FORthe pin hanging department, abominated byInternational House, read avidly by Foster hall.

TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 8, 1938 Fage ThreeTalks on “The Ego and HisUniverse” at Mandel Fri¬day.Hy IRVING JAMSLecturing to an audience of about700 people in Mandel hall last Fri¬day, Frofessor Kurt Koffka, famousGestalt psychologist, presented someof his late-^t theories. The subjectof Dr. Koflfka’s lecture was “The Egoand His Universe.” In dealing withthe subject. Professor Koflfka pre¬sented an extension of his Gestalttheories and dealt with some of thebasic problems of psychology.The basis of Dr. Koffka’s approachto the subject is his treatment ofthe problem of the interaction be¬tween organi.sms and objects in thephysical environment. According toKoffka, organisms react in definiteways and perceive in specific ways,the objects about them. In the sameway that the organisms perceive ob¬jects, they may perceive their ownselves—their Egos. Egos are theproduct of a dynamic proce.ss of or¬ganization. Behavior, which occurswhen there is a stress and strain,may arise within the Ego itself orbetween the Ego and his environ¬ment.Stages of DevelopmentIn developing his notions aboutthe stages of psychological develop¬ment, Koffka selected examples ofthe mentality of primitive peoplesand of patients with .severe brainlesions. He stated that amongprimitives and the brain injured, theEgo is more dependent upon the or¬ganization of the surrounding fieldand its stresses and strains than weare. We pos.sess FIgos that are morecapable of freedom becau.se we arethe products of greater differentia¬tion. The primitives represent anearly stage of develojiment and the brain cases a retrogression. Only ata high level of differentiation is theEgo capable of acting according toits own demands rather than obeyingthe impacts of the immediate en¬vironment. Our methods of investi¬gation should include the study ofEgo-environment organizations atdifferent levels.After the lecture, w^hen interviewedfor the Maroon, Dr. Koffka statedthat he wa.s very greatly impressedby the University as he was whenhere last time, the .summer of 1925.He was happy to see tw'o of his closefriends. Dr. Guiseppe Borgese of thedepartment of Romance Languages,who was a colleague of Koffka atSmith, and Miss Lucy Driscoll of thedepartment of Art with whom duringhis stay in Chicago, he discussed sev¬eral scientific problems on whichboth have been working. Dr. Koffkais planning to remain in Americapermanently and has become an A-merican citizen. He stated that he iscontinuing his experiments on mem¬ory and perception at Smith College,where he is a member of the faculty. Callaway Plays [Professor Albert T.

Olmstead, professor of OrientalHistory, spent last year in the NearEast. During this period he was a rep¬resentative of the Oriental Instituteand annual professor of Oriental Re¬search at Baghdad, Iraq. As a resultof this trip Olmstead will speak on“Ancient Hi.story Warmed Over,” atOriental Institute tonight at 8:30.With the aid of slides Olmsteadwill trace the route he covered in theNear East through his year abroad.The lecture will primarily emphasizethat when writing a book on ancienttimes it is necessary to gather asmuch information concerning the peo¬ple of the time and their environmentas possible. Olmstead himself is nowediting a volume on “The History ofNew Testament Times.”A collector of pottery, Olmstead re¬turned from abroad with hundreds ofancient pieces. Tonight he will showseveral of the different pottery typesof Greece and Rome which he foundon the edge of the Arabian desert.Olmstead will stress the importantrelationship between minor objects of art and ancient historical peoples.
