The net result to date has been theappearance of eight students to compete for positions on a four-manteam. Obviously, any team selected on such a basis will farepoorly against other Big Ten representatives.An ever-present tradition on campus has been the familiarcomplaints of students that the University has always lackedtalent to compete with other schools successfully. Usually, it isadded that this condition is due primarily to the discouraginginfluence of the Administration, especially in its refusal to pros¬elyte. Yet, in this instance, if the University debate team fails toretain its championship’ status won at last year’s conference, thefault must lie with the students alone.It is ridiculous to claim that there are no more than eightamong 4600 students who are sufficiently interested in forensiccompetition to try for the University team. It is, rather, a shock¬ing lack of “school spirit”, basic loyalty to the University thatkeeps students from supporting with their time and talent thecompetitive activities which are so important in maintaining ouroff-campus reputation. Especial attention should be given to thoseother campus groups who profess keen interest in topics ofcurrent social significance. Where are the members of our polit¬ical clubs?The Day Is NearThe fifteen student organizations which are jointly sponsoringtonight’s all-campus carnival are to be congratulated heartily.It is most satisfactory to note that the World Student ServiceFund drive is receiving the support that it so richly deserves.Few better student causes or activities exist. Furthermore, themere fact that fifteen campus groups were able to combine theirenergies in this direction is encouraging to those of us who havean abiding faith in the efficacy of group action for a common good.We cannot help but wonder, however, how much more success¬ful such a carnival could be if some form of student governmentwere already in existence on campus, and could, therefore, takeofficial cognizance of and action on such a venture. This is definitelya proper province for student council consideration.With so many areas of valuable activity open to a studentcouncil, we believe that it is mandatory for the entire student bodyto bend their every effort towards the prompt realization of thisgoal which can serve our mutual good so well.An ever-increasing interest in student government on thepart of many students on campus, can only serve to spur on thethoughtful deliberations of the dorm-commuter committee in theformation of constitution for our government. The day when acouncil plan will be presented to and accepted by the 4600 studentsat the University must not be far off.Documentary Group Shows ProgramOf Films on Domestic Problems“The City”, “Valley Town”, and “The Case of Charlie Gordon”, threefilms presented by the Documentary Film Group on Tuesday, February 20,comprised a well rounded program on domestic problems.“The City”, in spite of its frequent showings, continues to be timely andinformative. It deals with the problems of housing, contrasting industrialcity slums with modern housing projects. A good part of the attraction of“The City” lies in its excellant filming and sound background.“Valley Town” showed the worker’s side of the problem of machinereplacing man-power. Although the unemployment brought on by thistransition is not evident at the present time, the problem is a recurring one.“The Case of Charlie Gordon” pictured Canada’s solution of the problemof unskilled, unemployed youth. It presented the entire apprenticeshipsystem, followed by supporting statistics. This is also an obsolete problemat the present time, but one that will recur. —B.Y. THE CHICAGO MAROONHere and ThereStudent CouncilAt If WashingtonBuys Ski LodgeThe Student Council at theUniversity of Washington hasjust completed the purchase ofa ski lodge accomodating 26 per¬sons, for use of students at theUniversity. At the same time,arrangements were made to lease135 acres of land surrounding thelodge, for a two-year period.Both lodge and land are at pres¬ent the property of the NorthernPacific Railway Company. Fac¬ilities of the lodge include twoliving rooms, two sets of sleep¬ing porches, two kitchens, andtwo large fireplaces.<t< * «Although the fact that “no one eversees President Hutchins” is a tradi¬tion at Chicago, President Bevis ofOhio State is not quite so inacessible.Any student at the University is in¬vited to discuss matters of policy withhim at a monthly “prexy hour” heconducts in his office.♦ ♦ ♦A campaign for improvinghousing conditions at MinnesotaUniversity is being conducted bythe Progressive Party, a campuspolitical group. Members of a spe¬cial committee of the organizationhave uncovered numerous cases of‘ overcrowding, inadequate sani¬tary facilities, fire hazards, andexcessive rents.

In the Interests of Science •Friday, Febroaiy 23, 1945Canadian Students Make StudyOf Lipstick Distribution(Ed. Note: Believing that it will he of great interest to the campus at largeand especially to those gaining an understanding of the scientific method viaBi Sd, Phy Sci, or Oily we reprint the following report on this research ofgreat importance, which originally appeared in the Journal of Queen'sUniversity, Kingston, Ontario.^When two surfaces, one of which iscoated with a layer of lipstick, meet,a certain distribution of the lipsticktakes place. The second surface,which was originally clean, retains aportion of the material. This paperis a study of the variables affectingthis distribution and the determina¬tion of the coefficient of distribution.NOMENCLATUREP—pressure, N—number of applica¬tions, T—temperature of experiment,A'—area of the transmitter. A"—areaof the receiver, i—intensity of light,K—Newton’s constant, P—pucker fac¬tor, II—passion.NOTES ON THE VARIABLESThe most important variable underconsideration is that of pressure.Harris reports that in 193 tests, usingvariations of pressure, the amount ofmaterial transferred was a direct func¬tion of the pressure. This report tendsto bear out the experiments of Nicht-lieber, who used several transmittersunder the same laboratory conditions,i.e., on the same night. Nichtlieberconducted his tests in the Theta PhiAlpha laboratory in 1943. When thepressure is zero, the distribution isalso zero; as pressure increases, theflow of lipstick increases rapidly upto a certain maximum. Under ex¬tremely high pressures, the equilibri¬um conditions are reached almost im¬mediately. Equilibrium occurs whenthe amount of lipstick on one surfaceis equal to that on the other.It has been found that if pressureis plotted against distribution, thecurve assumes the shape of a “puck¬ered pair” of lips. (This is standardnomenclature for the phenomenon. Tosay a “pair of puckered lips” infersthat one lip can be puckered independ¬ently—an impossibility.) The exactshape of the curve is determined by“p”, the pucker factor.B, tlie variable measuring the sur¬face conditions, is an exponential func¬tion of the pucker factor and pressure.Under normal operating conditions,the surface of the contacting areasis fairly smooth. However, if the sur¬faces are contracted and drawn upinto folds and wrinkles, i.e., puckered,then surface conditions are far frombeing ideal for complete distribution.As pressure increases, the surface be¬comes more ideal, i.e., smooth.(For Installment II of this paper,dealing with the other variables, equa¬tions, and experimental conditions,see next week's Chicago Maroon.)Critic Praises ^Total EffecCOf World Playhouse FeatureTWO SOLDIERS, the film currentat the World Playhouse presents re¬markable evidence that, artistically,the whole can be more than the sumof its parts.The plot is remarkably trite: twobuddies in the siege of Leningrad, sep¬arated by a girl, make secret sacrificesfor each other, and are finally unitedwith all misunderstandings clearedaway. The continuity is maintainedsketchily if at all, and the English ti¬tles do not greatly contribute to one’sappreciatidn. It is rather discon¬certing to listen to a long and vehe¬ment speech evidently containing sev¬eral shades of meaning and find theEnglish title flashing on to say curtly “We know you guys from Odessa.”In spite of these handicaps, the filmas a whole is extremely satisfying. Asis to be expected, the photographywas quite wonderful, and the folksongs sung by one of the soldiers weresincere and beautiful. The acting wasmagnificent in its simplicity and dig¬nity. A complete absence of artificial¬ity characterized every performanceand in spite of the naivete of plot oneis left feeling that this is A true repre¬sentation of life. There is an absenceof all ranting against the Germansand all hysteria, leaving only a monu¬mental idealism and faith in the dig¬nity and eventual salvation of hu¬manity. Letters to EditorCohen DefendsODP AgainstMaroon CriticTo the Editor:It seems to be a naive conceptionof aspiring journalists to make thingseither simulatedly intellectual on onehand or as vitriolic as possible on theother. The criticism which our in¬trepid reviewer, Betty Steams, madeof the “Inspector General” shows amixture of wisdom, ignorance, andsublime indifference to the problemswhich ODP faces.There is no doubt that the criticismof the play was lodged in its inabilityto make its satiric elements appearmotivated. This was no doubt due tobad script editing, lack of stage busi¬ness, and un-unified climaxes, but wasit therefore a bad play? Mustn’t therehave been fine points which MissStearns’ zealous haste overlooked?The acting and character portayalswere certainly complete, and as a re¬sult there is no excuse for such aNietzchean review. Being a writer, (Iuse this word loosely), she must beacquainted with the critical criteriawhich a reviewer must employ, name¬ly, that of mentioning the good andthe bad in a one-to-one correspond¬ence. Where the good outweighs thebad, one might reasonably say theplay was good. In any other event wemight say it was a Steams’ review.As to more essential matters. TheDean’s Office is so suffocated with theidea of letting everything die unlessit perceptibly aids the understandingof the great books, that it offers nobacking, encouragement, or even a nodto ODP. One cannot be interested inthe artistic refinements Miss Stearns’whimsies about when ODP is worry¬ing where its next set is coming from.To an untrained audience which is notappreciative of delicate performances,but would rather swallow smut at ev¬ery show, ODP must cater. We needtheir 60 cents and we’ll do anythingto get it. Now if the Dean’s Officecould back ODP we could well say the“devil take” the audience and the stu¬dents would see some subtle, under¬played performances for a change.“Don’t blame the mirror if it’s yourown mug that’s crooked.” RememberMiss Stearns and the Dean’s Office.Arthur CohenCollege-3Vote For, Sigma's ChoiceMARTY HANSENDKEAt All-Campus CarnivalTonight!(Benefit W.S.S.F.)rFriday, February 23, 1945 THE CHICAGO MAROONEDWARDS DIRECTSTwenty-Five Utilize MiniatureBroadwing Studio In Swift Page Fivr(Editor 8. note! This is the first of a series of two articles on DavisEdwards and his Radio Shop by Chicago Maroon feature writer, Mary BethNelson.)Up and coming radio addicts could very well afford to takeadvantage of a miniature, but very complete radio station locatedin the offices of Davis Edwards in Swift 404. Here they may findall of the paraphernalia of a regular broadcasting studio where agroup of students, under Mr. Edwards' guidance, work on thevarious aspects and problems of radio broadcasting.Twenty-five students are en¬rolled in this course, the enroll¬ment of which is limited f^o as toinsure individual attention. Theradio work itself, consists of a se¬quence of classes, radio speechincluding microphone technique,problems of musical backgroundand sound effects,* actual rehear¬sals, radio dramatics, and moreadvanced study in radio work.The actual problems of broadcast¬ing arc, however, not the only featureconnected with the radio course.Classes in speech training, voice andphonetics, oral interpretation of lit¬erature, and a theoretical course inclassics and speech criticism are offer,ed to the student as a preparation forJudy DownsServin' It HotGood news for Chicago jazz fans!Coming up hot are a series of themost promising jam sessions that theWindy City has offered for a long,long time. The man responsible isPhil Featheringill, who is rapidly ce¬menting his position as keystone oflocal jazz activities. In happy contrastto the distatefully and incongruouslystaged jam sessions this city has seentoo often, Phil’s plans show the prom¬ise of well organized jazz presenta¬tions.Next Sunday afternoon at 2:00, onthe bandstand of the Club Zanzibar(1036 N. State) we will have a starstudded line up of New Orleans musi¬cians: Punch Miller, trumpet; PrestonJackson, trombone; Darnell Howard,clarinet; Baby Dodds, drums; JohnLindsay, bass; Richard M. Jones,piano.The line up for the following Sun¬day, March 4, is an impressive andcarefully chosen nucleus of the expo¬nents oi the “Chicago style”: BudJacobson, tenor; Volley De Faut, clar¬inet; Bill Stapleton, trumpet; BudWilson, trombone; Tut Soper, piano;Pat Patterson, bass; Lou Finnerty,drums.These sessions, it seems, couldhardly miss.« >i< 4>Jazz on Campus . . .On a short cut through the lobby ofIda, on my unhappy way to a Phy Scilecture Saturday morning, I thoughtI heard chance strains of the Blues inB Flat emitting from the gym.

Playing tenor wasMark Levant, and his colleague onpiano, Dick Collins, both apparentlyof the first year of the College. Addi¬tion of drums and another horn wouldresult in a nice little jam combination.Where are the other musicians onthe Quadrangles?Newest angle on our Hot Club: for¬mation of a Society for the Apprecia¬tion of American Folk Music. Well,that’s what someone said to me . . . the actual laboratory work. In allcases Mr. Edwards has as his aim thetraining of students in thought, lan¬guage, voice, and action; all that en¬compasses the whole problem of com¬munication. As Mr. Edwards says:“In radio work, the most importantpart consists of communication, espe¬cially that of the spoken word, and itis one of the aspects that I strive toaccentuate in all of my courses.”Every course receives full aca¬demic credit and although mostof the students are from the divi¬sions, members of the college areadmitted. Mr. Edwards stated\hat he found that most of thestudents enroll for the radio andspeech courses as training for ac¬tual professional radio work, oth¬ers to see if they are at all fitted, for the broadcasting profession.As interesting as the colorful Lili-putian broadcasting station is DavisEdwards, who has been teaching atthe University for nearly fifteenyears. He^did his graduate work here,as well as at the University of Wis¬consin where he also served on thefaculty. Other positions he held wereat the University of Minnesota, andNew York University.Mr. Edwards is noted all over thecountry for his interperative readings,and has given a series of 60 plays un¬der the auspices of the UniversityCollege. For the last four years hehas given readings on campus duringthe summer, a practice which he plansto continue this summer. His lastsummer’s program included such not.able works as “Cyrano de Bergerac”,“Marco Millions” and “The Patriots”.Next quarter Mr. Edwards will not beinstructing here as he has been as¬signed to writing and research. Hewill return, however, at the beginningof the summer quarter.Gorki Film to BeSeen Next Tuesday“Lower Depths”, by Maxim Gorki,will be the fourth fiction film present¬ed by the Documentary Film Groupthis quarter. It will be shown in So¬cial Science 122 at 8:00 p.m. Tuesday.Though the film itself is of Frenchorigin, the scene is laid in a boarding¬house in Old Russia.The plot involves portrayal of vari¬ous forms of human degeneracy—cyn¬icism, alcoholism, theft, introversion—^with Jean Gabin, in his uninhibitedmanner, playing the part of the thief.One central theme, the desire of hu¬man beings for* betterment of theirown lives, is the only concrete, lastingnote that remains constant in the tur¬bulent thread of the film. The dia¬logue is in French with English titles.George Hilton, conductor of th^“Guide to the Befuddled,” has sus¬pended his column for the durationof the quarter. The series will berenewed beginning next quarter. During most of this academic yearthe only extra-curricular musical ac¬tivities available to students have beenthe choir, the orchestra, and a fewmusic groups of rather sporadic fre¬quency and variable value. Now, atlast, there would seem to be loomingon the far horizon a rosy dawn in theform of a student chamber orchestrawhich proposes to be entirely student-managed and student-controlled. Thegroup would like to play, for theirown amusement largely, some of theworks for small orchestra.

The Wildcats came out onthe bottom of that one by asingle mark.Sharpshooters Ajax, Cloyd, Mc¬Guire and company put on a terrificexhibition for the dozen odd thousandwatching what was rated the ‘natur¬al of the year*. You’ve probably allheard about Ajax and Cloyd but justin case you haven’t, they swished in10 of those goals that count. That’s10 apiece . . .Despite a slightly unrecognizablepicture of Coach Kyle Anderson inthe TIMES, baseball at Chicago con¬tinues apace. Leader Fred Cimmer-blatt reports three new candidates forthe squad but says that there’s plentyof room for more men. Fred tells usthat Jim Servies is coming along ingreat style and that the pitching stafflooks better every day. Cimmerblattlooks plenty good himself but JohnSpencer still isn’t out.

Continuing play, Chicago didnothing spectacular until 1907 whenthey won the championship with a 10and 2 record. The University thenwon four championships in a row andbecame the first team to go undefeatedin *1909.For ten years, the Chicago ballclub was regarded as a threat andin 1920 again took the cage crownwith 10 wins against 2 defeats. TheQuadrangle team won its final BigTen title in 1924 when Illinois andWisconsin went into a three way tie,all with 8 victories and 4 defeats.After 1924, the Maroon men wentinto a slump from which they neverpulled out. Chicago was at the bottomof the conference 12 times after 1924and never had a better than .500rating. At the time of their with¬drawal in 1944, the University hadwon 182 games ani lost 288 con¬ference matches. They took the con¬ference title 6 times and placed last12 times; The strongest part of theirrecord coming before 1924 and theweakest after their last championship.University TankmenFace Uncertain1945 SeasonThere seems to be a chance that theUniversity may enter a team in BigTen swim competition with the littlematerial that is on hand, if the mencan find some time to get into shape.It seems that the school does haveenough prospects to enter a big meet,but, because of military duties and thefact that they can only get into thepool at certain times, are hamperedfrom getting the practice and coach¬ing they need. Then too, with therest of the league making the most ofthe great variety of navy men thatthey have, Chicago is at another disad¬vantage. The possibilities of the Ma¬roons entering the Big Ten Confer¬ence meet will be answered within thenext few weeks.To Elect CaptainCoach Ned Merriam, varsity trackleader, has ^ named March 1 as thedeadline for balloting for the 1945indoor track captain.

Iowa would have compiled amore commanding lead except for arule that only one contestant for eachschool could score points in an event.That ruling supplied Chicago with alarge portion of its points.The University took seconds in the60 yard dash, the two mile event andthe 70 yard low hurdles. Chicago auto¬matically took third in all the otherevents.
