Douglaswas begun yesterday by a volunteercommittee of graduate students.Douglas, profesor of economics, isseeking the election of alderman ofthe Fifth Ward, as candidate for theFifth Ward Citizens Committee.All students interested in the sup¬port of the University professor havelieen asked to join the committee, itwas announced by Sidney Hyman,chairman of the group. Those inter¬ested may register their names at anytime Tuesday in Social Science 41.7,or between 12 and 1 after that date.Hy^an SpeaksCalling for volunteers to work dur¬ing the campaign, Hyman issued thefollowing statement in regard to Pro¬fessor Douglas:“University of Chicago students arenot only members of an educationalinstitution. They are also citizens ofChicago. As citizens they cannot af¬ford the luxury of remaining indif¬ferent to the coming aldermanic elec¬tion. At no time in Chicago’s historyhas there been as great a need asthere is now for constructive leader¬ship in the solution of this city’s prob¬lems. Men of good will, without aprogram, cannot in themselves ef¬fect their solution.“Under these circumstances it isthe good fortune of Chicago thatProfessor Paul Douglas has consentedto stand for election as aldermanfrom the fifth ward. Above all men.Professor Douglas achieved the unitybetween thought and action, betweenthe ideals and practices in which ourpresent city government is so defi¬cient.Students ShareUniversity students share with thecommunity an interest in publichealth, housing, industrial relations,relief, education and police-admin¬istration. By giving a full measure ofeffort to the election of Paul Doug¬las, we can contribute to orderly pro¬gress in Chicago by placing in itscouncils a man honored by the nationas an authority on social problems.“We must recognize, however, thatDouglas’ great reputation at the Uni¬versity and throughout the nation willnot automatically secure his election.It remains a melancholy yet obviousfact that the nation does not vote foran alderman from the fifth ward. Nordoes the University community con¬stitute the whole of the ward.The organization of students work¬ing for Douglas’ election recognizesthe imperative necessity of securingevery University vote for Paul Doug¬las. It also recognizes the necessityof carrying the campaign into everyprecinct in this ward. We have thefighting forces, the candidate and theprogram. We urge every Universitystudent to close ranks with us indriving ahead to a smashing Douglasvictory.’’Air Debate Union DullSession’ Coast to Coast“The Student Takes the Mike’’over the Columbia Broadcasting Sys¬tem from 3 to 3:30 tomorrow after¬noon when Debate Union membersexpand their “Bull Session’’ coast tocoast.

Thesituation is this: ward politicsare dominated by a boss systemof patronage, and city politicsare run by politicians withoutan adequate understanding ofthe problems of city govern¬ment.James Cusack, who opposesDouglas in the aldermanic race,is an honest politician, but he istoo much under the dominationof Democratic ward committee¬man Horace Lindheimer, who iscalled smart, but rarely honest.Douglas is nobody’s tool. Cu¬sack is a good man, and a manwho does as well as goodwill prompts him to do, but theneeds of improvements in hous¬ing, utilities’ management, citygovernment, demand more thana politician’s understanding.Douglas brings the backgroundof an expert in these fields tothe job.The Fifth Ward, one of thelargest in the city, was clampedtogether into its present over¬whelming size in 1930, mainlyto prevent the University fromcontinuing to elect the ward’saldermen. The size, from 47thto 63rd, from the lake to Statestreet, is the reason the cam¬paign committee needs studenthelp.Douglas at the head of theFifth Ward would give a pres¬tige and power to the indepen¬dent movement which mightprove to be the death of thepresent Chicago plan of citygovernment. H i s campaignneeds and deserves the supportof every politically minded stu¬dent, for University supportwill be only a surface scratchin the independent fight forgood government. Metcalf has decided that noneof the alternatives suggested tohim would be able to take careof the situation which calledforth the plan; the fact thatwhen seats are unassigned stu¬dents will not confine them¬selves to only one place, thuscausing many ticket holders tostand. He further remarks thatonly five students and the Rey¬nolds Club Council have object¬ed.They may not have complain¬ed to the athletic director, butthey have to us. We thereforehave another plan to propose,one which would accomplish allMetcalf’s objectives and still al¬low students to change theirseats from game to game. Wewould merely have C-book hold¬ers show their books at the doorfor every game, and get seatingtickets as they enter.If you favor this plan overthe present one, register yourappro'^al with the poll takerswho will be outside the Field-house before the game Satur¬day night. Metcalf may still re¬fuse to change. He will be muchmore likely to adopt the alter¬native plan, however, if heknows that a majority of the C-book holders ask it.We’re giving you a chance tolet him know what you want. TravellingBazaarPat on the BackIf you have been feeling verymuch unlike the salt of theearth recently, just considerwhat the Herald and Examinereditorial writers think aboutUniversity students. Comment¬ing on the ten scholarships forpolitical refugees granted bythe administration, and theagreement that students willraise $5,000 to cover the livingexpenses, they carol:“And what does the studentbody do? It says ‘We will raisenot $5,000, but $10,000, so therewill be educational advantagesfor Central European students,and for Chinese and Spanishstudents as well.’ That’s thestudent body, mind you—back¬bone of tomorrow’s America...“We don’t know how lucky weare to live in a city with peoplelike these; in a country thatbreeds them like that.”Enthusiasm before the event,but we appreciate it. Even thecity newspapers are beginningto see that University studentsrate better than sex and suicidestories and are taking notice ofthe worthwhile things they do.We can’t afford to let themdown on the most deservingcrusade of the past decade.Nor do we intend to, if theaction of the SSA club is any in¬dication. Meeting yesterday,they set themselves a quota of$500, one-twentieth of the totalneeded.The committee has set theopening of the drive for the firstweek in February. They hadbetter look sharp; at this ratethe drive will be oversubscribedbefore it starts.Maybe the Herald and Ex¬aminer is right after all.DA Initiates NetvMembers TodayIn Reynolds ClubLet Him KnowWhat You WantThe basketball game tomor¬row night will launch the re¬served seat arrangement.

Particularly, the men whowork evenings after practice, etc.These men deserve any and all praisegiven them, but it is sometimes giventc the exclusion of other deservingfolk, who work equally hard and gounnoticed.I refer to the 20 or more girls whowork from 2 to 4 months of the schoolyear for Time, Incorporated. FromSeptember through January, they goto work every night at 5 and quit at12:15 while carrying a full scheduleof academic work. Most of them workin the complaint department takingCare of the magazine’s voluminouscorrespondence. The work they say,is pleasant but pretty nerve wrack¬ing, what with attempting to study,making 8 and 9 o’clock classes, andpartaking occasionally of some socialdiversions.

These facts weredetermined last quarter by a series oftests conducted by three students ofpsychology, Ralph Meister, EwaldNyquist, and Robert Waldrop, underthe supervision of Dr. Thurstone.These students, who were in a classon experimental psychology con¬ducted by Dr. Thurstone. were notparticularly concerned with the na¬tionality preferences of the residentsof the men’s dormitories. Their chiefconcern was with the technique usedto determine what they term, “psy¬chological zero.” That determiningwhich action, thing, race, etc. will af¬fect people in neither a positive nornegative manner. In this case, the“psychological zero” in nationalitypreference for this group of men wasRussian.200 People TestedA total of 200 persons were giventests in order to obtain these results.The question on the tests were wordedin this manner: “If you had yourchoice, would you rather room with aRussian or with a Turk?” Then theanswers were examined and tabulatedby statistical means and results thusobtained.In experiments of this kind, the |fact is important that any results ob¬tained will apply only to the grouptested and that individuals of thisgroup may hold dissenting opinions.For example, if these .same tests weregiven to a group of people in Rus.sia,the results would most certainly be vastly different.An account of this experiment willbe published shortly by those whohave conducted it. This account willdeal almost exclusively with thetechnique employed.Calvert ClubHolds BreakfastThe Calvert club, an organizationof Catholic students, will hold it^monthly breakfast for Catholics atInternational House, Sunday morn-ing, at IX.

JANUARY 13, 1939DAILY MAROON SPORTSFree ThrowsBy DEMAREST POLACHECKThose people who comprise thebasketball forces working out daily inthe Fieldhouse are of many minds onvarious subjects, but, at the presentwriting, they are all of the same opin¬ion on the subject of the approachingcontest with the University of Illi¬nois. While the attitude of the players(from whom you will hear later) isnaturally a positive one. Coach NelsNorgren balanced the bold propheciesof the squad by a characteristicallycautious resort to definition.In answer to the question whichwas put to all basketeers in sight, —“Would you care to predict the resultof the Illinois game; if you think wewill win, by how many points?” —Norgren replied that the function of acoach was not to predict but to hope.In addition, he must try to anticipateerrors, and when errors are made ina game, to rectify them. This resortto definition may or may not be evi¬dence of Aristotelianism in the Ath¬letic staff.Norgren strengthened his reply bystating that successful predictioncould be made only on the basis of asenior team. He pointed out thatthree of the starters for Saturday’sgame, Joe Stampf, Chet Murphy,and Ralph Richardson will be in theirfirst year of conference competition.In viewing the remainder of the sea¬son, the coach said that improvementin offensive power and continued ef¬fectiveness in defense would make ormar the team’s chances for success.For the immediate future, the Wis¬consin victory has given the teammuch-needed confidence — as for therest, “Well, there are no weak teamsin the conference.”The statements of the playersthemselves are more direct;Captain Bob Cassels— “We shoulddo all right for the rest of the season.We will win the Illinois game.”Remy Meyer— “We will take Illi¬nois by a better score than the oneIf.st year. We have a 50-50 chance towin all of our conference games.”Dick Lounsbury— “We’ll win bysix points.”Chester and William Murphy, (inUnison)— “We ain’t talking, see!” Alpha Delts Score Three Winsin Intramural Basketball PlayPhi Delts, Phi Psis, PhiSigs and Dekes Also Tri¬umph.The openings games of the Frater¬nity division of the Intramural bas¬ketball tournament last night weremarked by three Alpha Delt wins, thePhi Delts 41-7 crack at the Chi Psis,Phi Psi’s 46-12 victory over DU, andthe Beta defeat by Phi Sig 33-17.Last Night’s ResultsAlpha Delt “C” 17 Chi Psi “B” 7Alpha Delt 23 Z.B.T. 12Phi Psi 46 DU 12Phi Delt 41 Chi Psi 7Alpha Delt “B” 41 Chi Psi 7Alpha Delt “B” 48 Phi Sig “C” 2Phi Psi “B” 18 Z.B.T. “B” 9Phi Sig 33 Betas 17Phi Sig “B” 18 Phi Delt “B” 17Deke “B” 23 Phi Psi “C” 3Deke 30 Sigma Chi 15Phi Gam “B” forfeit to Psi U “B”Psi U-Phi Gam postponed.Lew Hamity’s charging and hisblue and white checked shorts weren’tenough for the fast Alpha Delt groupwho work out a good attack and fairshooting. The Alpha Delt “B” team issurprisingly tricky for a group ofplayers who appear as awkward asthey do; Hart Perry, looking like abeginner, put in 16 points as didBusby. Rosenfeld scored Phi Sig“C” ’s only tally in the 48-2 debacle.The Deke team, taking Sigma Chi30-15, looks like championship ma¬terial; all the boys handle the ballwell and Mahoney, captain of the squad is definitely good for I.M.competition. His ten points were fol¬lowed by Steinbach’s 8. Brown stoodout for Sigma Chi, netting 13 of their15 points. The game started slow.Sigma holding the Dekes at evenscores for a good part of the firsthalf.Phi Sigs WinPhi Sig’s Sherman was too muchfor Beta Theta Pi, netting 17 pointsalone, equal to Beta’s total in the 33-17 game. Beta has lots of height butno spark which Phi Sig abounds with.DU didn’t have a chance with PhiPsi, Wiedemenn and Bill Wotter tak¬ing rebounds off the former’s back-board, and heaving or working theball down the floor to Saylor andBeatty who scored 16 and 14 pointsrespectively.A bunch of sloppy shots by Crouch,giving him 11 points, put the PhiPsi “B” team ahead of ZBT “B” 18-9.Good passing followed up with ac¬curate shooting gave the Phi Delts a41-7 win over Chi Psi who couldn’tstem the tide.Joe Stampf— “Five points.”Ralph Richardson gave a vigorousr-ffirmative from the midst of a heatedargument with the locker room tsar.McCarthy (with Irish accent) —“We are—by ten points.”Joe Greenwald— “I don’t know. Ionly play on the Freshman squad.”^ Art Jorgenson— “Yes, by threeI points.”1 Tommy Flinn— "I’m conservative.I We will win by twenty points.”j It looks like they think they mightI possibly come out on top. Maroon PollsStudents at GameThe Daily Maroon will conduct apoll on the revised seating plans ofthe Athletic Department at theIllinois game Saturday evening.The poll will attempt to determinestudent opinion on the change inpolicy recently inaugurated byAthletic Director Thomas NelsonMetcalf.Three po.ssible alternatives whichwould solve the seating problem atUniversity basketball games are:(1) the retention of the old planwhich was to save the entire eastsection of stands for C-book hold¬ers, with no reservation of seats;(2) the assignment of the sameseat to the same person for theduration of the sea.son, which isthe present plan; or (3) the as¬signment of a single reserved seatat the gate for each individualgame, not necessarily the sameseat all season.
