H.Shideler. professor of geology atMiami University, summed up theattitude of the panel, when hesaid, “Our American Society is notyet ready for all of the implica¬tions of a complete lack of dis¬crimination. I frankly wish that itwas ready,” he continued. “Anyattempt at coercion will quite cer¬tainly upset the apple cart andput us back where we were adecade ago,” he went on.“A high idealism is impotent un¬less it is sufficiently realistic toappraise costs and possible gains.. . .

Bard charged in a pamphlet distributed at the recent National Interfrater¬nity Conference with the approval of that group. Mr. Bard is a graduate of Amherst; in 1920he was chairman of the N.I.C. His comments are summarized below."My criticism here is not of the purpose but of the method adopted by the college of shift¬ing its ground, and especially on its compact with a fraternity chapter to permit it to stay oncampus upon condition thatits members break theirpledged word to their frater¬nity. This, I say, was perhaps theone method of dealing with the casethe college should have avoided. . . .“I do not approve of racial selec¬tivity in the Amherst fraternities, norindeed in any like organization. . . .In the circumstances, however, Ithink the application of the principlemight better have been left to thefraternities themselves. Moreover, the students themselves are as lib¬eral and democratic in this respectas the trustees of Amherst College.“The college entered into a com¬pact with the Amherst chapter ofone of its fraternities that if it andits members would violate its andtheir obligations, solemnly taken, totheir own fraternity, the chaptermight remain on the Amherst cam¬pus. The reader should note thetriple pledge of the students to theirfraternity. In effect they had said: 'We pledge ourselves to choose ourmembers from a certain group ofstudents. If this rule is to be changedit may be changed only in a par¬ticular way by the whole ’ frater¬nity. . . .' Notwithstanding thistriple pledge to the fraternity thechapter promised the college to vio¬late its pledged word in all threerespects, and Amherst College ac¬cepted this pledge of violation as asatisfactory solution of the diffi¬culty."ami professor said, “he is joiningfar more than the particular chap¬ter which initiates him. He is join¬ing a brotherhood of thousands,distributed through many otherchapter. When any chapter initi¬ates a brother, that chapter has amoral if unwritten obligation tomake certain that the initiate is a type which would be welcomed bythe brotherhood everywhere andat all times. ...

That in effect is the dan¬ger of assuming a defensive standas non-rational and emotional asthat of the opposition to whichliebrals so vigorously object, thedanger of closing their eyes to ob¬vious defects in their own arma¬ment.The Harry Dexter White caseas Baron uses it is ample illustra¬tion of this evil. Baron calls it“alarming,” refers to it as an “at¬tack on President Truman,” a“means of intimidating the Amer¬ican people, forcing them into theways of war and reaction,” ameans of “smearing and red-bait¬ing.” The extent of this type ofundiscriminating response is notconfined to Mr. Baron alone butis wide-spread among the studentbody and provides a real sourcefor alarm.Simply because this new infor¬mation emanated from the oppo¬site camp, is no reason to con¬demn it per se as a “smear” or“red-bait,” it is the duty of theintellectual to study the facts andto honestly evaluate on the basisof the available data, rather thanto lash out unthinkingly with afloor of righteous indignation andtired cliches.If Mr. Baron had paused forthought he would have foundmuch ground for criticism of theviewpoint he so blindly, but well-meaningly, attempted to defend.No one accused Roosevelt orTruman of disloyalty; it was sim¬ply stated by Mr. Brownell thatthey had created and maintained apolitical climate in which treasonwas able to flourish. Harry DexterWhite, as one among many otherswas cited as inescapable evidenceof the fact. President Trumanblurted forth that he knew noth¬ing the FBI report which Brown¬ell used as the basis of his state¬ment. He saw fit to withdraw thislater. 'Then he said that as soon as itwas found that White was a spyhe was fired. Scathingly condemn¬ing reports of White’s activity hadbeen given to the President by theFBI prior to White’s appointmentas U. S. Director of the Interna¬ tional Monetary Fund in 1946.Little new evidence was devel¬oped between that date andWhite’s resignation all of 14months later! Mr. Truman obvi¬ously was stretching the publiccredulity on that point.Ex-president Truman states thatWhite was kept on in order thathe might be subjected to furthersurveillance. Why, then, under thecircumstances, was he placed in anew, vitally important post, withgreater access than before to se-scret information and a postmoreover which by its interna¬tional nature restricted the inves¬tigative powers of the FBI.Simply a few thoughts to beconsidered.McCarthyism is a menace toAmerican security, yet it willnever be combatted by irrational¬ism. The truth is always of theultimate importance and it is oneof the precious heritages of ourAmerican democracy that even anex-president is not immune fromthe charges of gross negligence ifthey can be so established.It is time that liberals openedtheir eyes to the real problems,took stock of their own camp, andrealized that the forces of reac¬tion will never be defeated bytheir own tactics, but by truth andthe force of reason.James Coulter BlackChallenges KimptonI wish to congratulate theMAROON for its November 20 is¬sue featuring a discussion of aca¬demic freedom.Chancellor Lawrence A. Kimp¬ton, however, displays the sophis¬try on this topic which is becom¬ing so common on most campusesof the country. Teachers ought topursue the truth wherever it maylead them, he says. Rut he takesit right back by excluding commu¬nists. What about people who fear¬lessly pursue the truth and come to communist conclusions? Itleads them right out of the univer¬sity because they followed themaxim “search for the truth andthe truth shall make you free.”The Chancellor also says he fa¬vors the teaching of non-conform¬ist doctrine but again qualifiesthis assertion to death by saying“as long as the teacher has a freemind.” In other words if the teach¬er supports unpopular views, in¬cluding communist view’s, hedoesn’t have a “free” mind al¬though he arrived at his conclu¬sions after serious study and afteranalyzing the alternatives.Saying that communism shouldbe taught by anti-communists islike saying that evolution shouldbe taught by Fundamentalists,that astronomy should be taughtby astrologists, etc.Yes, a good university must bethe center of controversy and abattle of ideas so that truth cancombat error. The only way thiscan be genuinely done is throughthe support of academic freedom,so that all views will be well rep¬resented by their proponents.Ability to teach and knowledge ofthe subject matter should be theonly criteria of competence. Onlyin this manner should a free uni¬versity operate if it is to remainfree.Stephan KatzanChallenges MAROONTo the Street-Lights Theory ofCrime and the Language-BarrierTheory of International Conflicthas recently been added the Foot¬ball Theory jof the Decline of High¬ er Education.

Thesewere combined in the fifth cen¬tury, B.C. Two explanations ofthis dual role based on preclassi-cal research were examined byProf. Blankenhagen (one based onhistorical evidence, another on ob¬servation and analysis of Homeralone); both were rejected as in¬adequate to explain Athena’s var¬ied representations, armed andunarmed, seated and standing, ac¬tive and peaceful.Another possible explanation,demonstrating the Greek idealiza¬tion and perfection in a sexless composite of the human and thedivine was offered by the Profes¬sor as preferred alternative. Thiswas corroborated in his presenta¬tion by evidence from the “Eu-menides” of Aeschylus and visibleproof in pictures of the art itself.Links were hinted at by Profes¬sor Blankenhagen between thefirst and remaining lectures in hisremarks. Anticipation of themwas exhibited by the sustainedapplause of the audience at thecompletion of his talk.Blankenhagen told his audiencethat they should not be dauntedby the incomprehensibility of hisfirst lecture. His thesis, he said,would only appear in its entiretyby the end of the series.

The work of Bachand Handel culminated a longtradition which had beengathering force since the earlyday of the Renaissance, and whichended abruptly at their death.The succeeding generationswere aware in part of the mightystature of the men who had gonebefore, but the musical taste of their time demanded recasting ofthe essential structure to corre¬spond with the change of taste.The “modernization” of the workcontinued throughout the nine¬teenth century until the change insound had proceeded so far thatthe work as it is commonly givenis but a distant descendant of itsdistinguished ancestor.In terms of cultural periods we are used, then, to hear abaroque masterpiece in a roc-coco setting performed with thestyle of romanticism.There is much controversyover trends in modern music, butone aspect of our “modernity” isdifferent from that of our fa¬thers. We now feel strong enoughin our historical perspective to de¬mand production of works of artin their contemporary settings.In musical terms, this meansthat Messiah, as Handel gave it,was performed not by largegroups of amateurs accomjMi-nied by a small orchestra (play¬ing for the most part notes for¬eign to the composer), and notoverwhelmed by an organ pro¬ducing sonorities of which Han¬del never dreamed, but ratherby a trained choir accompanied by an orchestra of nearly equalnumbers in a performancewhere movement, pace, brilli¬ance are the distinguishingcharacteristics.To sing the arias, four soloists,known for their work in oratorio—Anita Jordan, soprano; MuarineParzybok, contralto; John Toms,tenor; and Henri Noel, bass—havebeen engaged.Heinrich Fleisher, who hasplayed the continuo for UC per¬formances of the St. MatthewPassion and Handel's Israel inEgypt, will again support thechoir and members of the Chi¬cago Symphony Orchestra.Tickets are on sale for $2.00 gen¬eral admission at Reynolds Clubdesk and Woodworth’s bookstore.Mail orders maj- be sent to Rocke¬feller Chapel.Buy a round-trip ticketand save an extra 10%each way!CHECK THESE LOW FARES!On* HoundWay TripAKRON, O. . . . $ 8.25 $14.85ANN ARBOR, MICH. 5.95 10.75BENTON HARBOR-ST.

". . . and then the MAROON hod the audacity to call my prose stylemechanical."Playwright’s ‘Menagerie’ stimulatingPlaywrights Theatre Club's "The Glass Menagerie" must be one of the most distinctive productions ofthis often-performed play, if only because none of the characters were played as neurotics.Under the clear, quick handling of director William Alton, the cast, headed by Marie Brady as the moth¬er, always seemed aware of immediate reality. Each character chose the most effective means to achievehis goal, and the issue wasnever clouded with regretfor the past and the mysticalneglect of present realitywhich we usually associate withWilliams’ work.To this reviewer, Alton’s attackon the play was stimulating be¬cause each scene became impor¬tant in itself, and not part of amood picture. The arguments be¬tween Tom and his mother, Tom’sdrunken scene, the episode withthe gentleman caller, were playedin such a manner as to revealWilliams as a realistic writer with belie his objective view of life.Starting with Synge’s conceptof theatre as reality shown withhumor, joy and heightened lan¬guage, he often falls into anexpressionistic confusion of pur¬pose by his mood demands onmusic, decor and lighting.Our one complaint against Play¬wrights’ production arises fromtheir own confusion of purpose.If each of the characters is soforthright, and if so much obviouscare is taken to clarify and con¬trast ideas and mood, why shouldan objective view of his people they negate this with Paul Bowles’and a feeling for language notequaled in other American writ¬ers.The problem is whether Wil¬liams sees himself in this way.Too often his use of music tobridge scenes or augment andrestimulate emotions seems to tinkling, emotional music, eventhough Williams liked it himself?The cast, in which Altonplayed Tom, showed the bene¬fits of a group sensitive to eachother because of close and con¬tinued association.

Her personalitymust have done much to set theforceful pace and tone of this pro¬duction.

Cagers trim Qeorge Williams 89*42by George StriekerThe varsity basketball team, spurred on by a band, cheerleaders, and over 300 noisyspectators, racked up one of the largest scores in Chicago basketball history by drubbingGeorge Williams 89-42. The Maroons were paced by Dave Smith, game’s high scorer with16 points, Bob Mann with 13, and Dan Levine with 12. The game was a see-saw battle inthe first quarter but Chicago finished the quarter with a rush, opened up a big lead inthe second quarter and broke the game wide open in the third.At the beginning of the firstquarter the team seemed tobe understandably nervous,but goaded by the scoring andbustling of letterman Dan Levinethey opened up a 17-12 lead. Thelead changed hands eleven timesuntil a long push shot by DickHomer game Chicago an 11-10lead which they never lost.Maroons threatenedIn the second quarter the Ma¬roons were threatened for a mo¬ment as George Williams shrunkthe deficit to 27-23. But then Chi¬cago. led by Dave Smith, ran up11 straight points and left thecourt at half-time with a 38-23lead.The third quarter was the keyone for the Maroons. They scored21 points to only 6 for the visitors.Smith, Levine, Bill Lester andFred Hubbard took turns pacingChicago. This quarter was alsomarked by the fouling out ofguard Bob McKallip of GeorgeWilliams, their high scorer andbest player. The fourth quarterwas the most successful for Chi¬cago’s hungry cage artists. Led byMann and Wally Lonergan theyscored 30 points, even though sub¬stitutes played a majority of thequarter. Near the end of the game the fans were yelling for the Ma¬roons to score 90, and the crowdseemed to think the scoreboardmissed the point that would haveattained this goal.Could have dona betterIt is hard to say that the Ma¬roons looked anything but goodafter such a crushing victory, butthe fact is that if they scored afew of the easy layups that shouldhave been made, and if they werea little more accurate on foulshots, they easily could have runthe score over 100. However, theseare easily corrected errors, andthe Maroons’ overall appearancewas a very good one. They havesharp ballhawks on defense and agroup of fine, quick offensiveplayers who work well on the out¬side. Levine, Smith, Lester, Mann.Homer, and Walter Walker allfall into the last class.Pivot not outstandingThe pivot spot was not as out¬standing as the rest of the offense.This may be due to the unfamili¬arity of these new players withCoach Norgren’s style of offense.With a little more practice thisaspect of the offense should im¬prove greatly. The rebounding was not as strong as it shouldhave been, considering the heightadvantage the Maroons had, and itseemed that Levine, Smith andMann were taking more reboundsthan the centers.Congratulations are due toCoach Norgren and all the mem¬bers of the team, with specialreference to Danny Levine, whosefine spirit held the team togetherin the early part of the game, andDave Smith, whose scoring wassuch a key factor in the victory.The team’s next game is Tuesdaynight against Illinois ProfessionalSchool in the Fieldhouse.Chicago George Williams(89) (42)B F P B F PSmith,f 7 2 0 Spina, t 0 1 5Levlne.g 4 4 1 Lohman.f 0 2 2Hubbard.c 3 1 0 Mav.c 3 2 1Walker ,g 3 1 2 Zenke.g 1 0 4Homer.g 3 0 2 McKalUp.g 4 4 5Mann 5 3 1 Hanhosii 1 3 2Lonergan 3 3 3 Lipschultz 2 1 1Lester 3 1 4 Spelman 1 1 0Dunkle 1 0 1 Hall 0 1 1Colby 1 1 0 Anderson 0 1 0Hanan 1 1 1 Mlcheals 0 0 0Garcia 1 1 2 Shinn 0 0 1Wlemar 0 1 0 Kusnetz 0 0 1Hamilton 0 0 0 Eaton 1 0 0Totals 35 19 17 Totals 13 16 23Chicago . ...17 21 21 30—89George Williams ...12 11 6 13—42 Track Club wins CAAUcrown over heavy snowThe Chicago Track Club won the Central AAU 5000 met<Cross Country Championship last Saturday, by a score <24-31.
