A fewmonths after his arrival in thecountry the program»was aban¬doned, but he chose to remain forwhat he called “a grandstand seattor a major historical event.”Hinton began the lecture by de¬scribing the area he knew best,which was under Communist con¬trol even before his arrival, alarge state farm in NorthernChina where he was employed asan instructor during most of hisstay. He cited some statistics offarm living, stating that the stand¬ard of living and leisure hour oc¬cupations at this farm are com¬parable to those of industrialworkers throughout China.$10 to $15 a month would be anaverage wage, with skilled work¬ers getting as high as $50. How¬ever food only costs from $4 to $8per month, and housing and medi¬cine are usually free, Hinton said.The working day is eight hoursWealth notadvertising“Although advertising has beenblamed for causing our culturalneurosis, there is no evidence tosupport this claim,” declaredGeorge Brown, professor of mar¬keting, in a talk last Friday.His discussion of “Advertising’sContribution to the Cultural Neu¬rosis,” was the first in a series ofFriday afternoon discussions spon¬sored by the Business Club inHaskell Hall.Defining cultural neurosis as avalue judgment of the good lifeincorporating people's desires tobe “big shots,” ferown contendedthat while advertisers might wantto make people culturally neuroticfor a profit, they are unable todo it. What advertisers do is waituntil they find an area where peo¬ple want to impress their neigh¬bors and then slant their adver¬tising to take advantage of anexisting situation.“Social scientists in general andcollege professors in particularplace too much value on advertis¬ing,” said Brown. Advertisingwhich is not supported by the so¬ciety cannot be effective. Duringthe discussion Brown admittedthat advertising might tend tofurther this cultural neurosis, butonly to the extent that the societydeemed it advisable that it befurthered.Brown said that probably thebiggest factor causing a culturalneurosis in America is our socie¬ty’s emphasis upon the ownershipof material wealth.The coffee hour discussion se¬ries will continue today in theHaskell Hall lounge.

The establishment of theUN, he said, is the most effectivemeans, thus far, of achievingpeace. “There can only be inter¬national organization through in¬ternational cooperation.”The UN provides for more in¬tensive internal organization;however, the 20th century is stillthe most bloody in man’s history.Old peace methods ineffectualWright termed such peace meas¬ures as peace by empire, univer¬sal religion, and. balance of poweras “impracticable.” Peace by em¬pire, he said, would nof work, for“we would not want to be ruled bythe Soviets, and they would notwant to be ruled by us”: the ideo¬logical strife of universal religionwould cause more havoc; and de¬mocracy cannot function underthe political organization of bal¬ance of iH»wer. Maintaining the effectiveness ofthe UN, lie explained its basic ef¬forts in two fields: collective se¬curity—its attempts to preventwar or conditions leading to war—and economic and social coopera¬tion— the improvement of basicconditions, such as health, pover¬ty, and illiteracy.Collective security vital measureWright disagreed with PercyCorbett, professor of political sci¬ence at Princeton University, whotook the “inadvisable approach”that economic and social coopera¬tion should be placed before col¬lective security. Both efforts, heslated, must, of course, be keptup; however, collective security isthe more important.There are two methods of col¬lective security, he explained: co¬ordination of forces to prevent ag¬gression and specific settlementsof disputes, through mediation;conciliation, and arbitration.

The linesof analysis head through tradi¬tions of rationalistic and passionaltheater to the Theological Mys¬ticism of St. Augustine and theidea that true freedom and pas¬sage into the City of God is byperfect submission to the DivineWill. The play is built to cast atrance over its audience and pro¬duce in its tragic resolution spir¬itual rejoicing through earthlymourning.The performance I saw wasmuscular, episodic, lather poli¬tical than mystical; in which thetail end of the knight's ironichumor quite wagged the houndof heaven.Fred Wronovics%Travel Service...(from page 1 )plus a 15 per cent Lax, but thespecial rate will be $46.05, includ¬ing tax.

The paper, the editorsexplained, was published by thecentral committee of the Kom¬somol. This did not mean the pa¬per was primarily political. Thepaper had twelve departments in¬cluding cultural activities, Komsomol affairs, student affairs, andactivities of young workers.Each department was presidedover by an editor; these personsformed the editorial board whichdetermined the policy of the pa¬per. Komsolmolskaya Pravda hada circulation of about 1,600,000with no advertising. The editorssaid the subscriptions and news¬stand sales paid the cost of thepaper.

The Soviet editors hada good knowledge of world events.Our talk took place shortly beforethe Berlin Conference, and theypointed to that as the beginningof more peaceful relations be¬tween our two countries.We had a lull schedule duringthe last two days in Moscow—ourlast trip to the ballet and a visitto the tomb of Lenin and Stalin.The latter is situated adjacent tothe Kremlin and is a striking redmarble construction. Soviet cit¬izens wait many hours in longlines to visit the mausoleum, butwe were given places near the Most prices in the departmentstores appeared expensive. Be¬cause there is no free trade be¬tween the U. S. and the SovietUnion, the ruble has been arbitrar¬ily placed at 25 cents. This putsthe American at a considerabledisadvantage in the exchange.

AVPage 8 THE CHICAGO MAROON March 12, 1954'Rome 11 O'Clock' Zavattini's bestDuring the past few months Italian film makers have been engaged in a review of the structure and pur¬poses of the Italian cinema. The earlier post-war films, those even that have become veritable classics, havebeen subjected to scrutiny and analysis in order to determine whether the Italian cinema has indeed de¬served its epitaph, "neo-realism." In the course of this review films such as Bicycle Thief with its grippingportrayal of the dilemma ~~ ~~~ ~of its protagonist have Armando Borrelli demands that the proceedings the narrativePete Seeger, who presented hisfolksinging to on overflow audi¬ence ot Mandel Hall last January,will appear there again Saturday,April 3.

Certainly his ven¬ture has come of necessity.Since “Bicycle Thief,” the majorItalian films have based them¬selves upon Italy’s acute unem¬ployment situation. ThoughZavattini has been able, in suchfilms as “Miracle in Milan,” toavoid direct contact with thisquote the critic Pio Baldelli, “likescattered, partly withered leaves."Most of the film makers havebeen in agreement on one con¬clusion—that the bulk of filmsthus far have only touched thesurface of reality and that forsubsequent films to be success¬ful they must show that thereis more to Italy “than meets theeye.”Yet, within this conclusion therehas been difference. The critic continually asks the question,“Who is to blame?” By means ofa well executed montage we getglimpses into the histories ofthe suspects and of the otheryoung women on the stairway,including a streetwalker who at¬tempts to forsake an affair witha prosperous businessman in fa¬vor of a decent job and a girlfrom a wealthy home who hasmarried a poor artist. We see(though insufficiently, becauseof the choice and type of char¬acterizations), the influences ofthese people on one another.When the film ends all suspectsare released and we are re¬turned to the outside of thebuilding where we see one girlback waiting for the one job.Aside from the typical DeSantistendency to put an unjustifiedpulchritude parley into the film,Rome, Eleven O’clock has someof the faults of Zavattini’s previ¬ous scripts.

During failing of the film—that ques¬tion, “Who is to blame?'’ isnever answered. The responsi¬bility for this failure lies notleast with the narrative struc¬ture of the film and partly withZavattini’s refusal to venturetoo far from the “naked facts.”Any one of the the alternatives— poor building construction,poor maintenance, the rushstarted by the impatient youngwoman, the employer’s inter¬viewing procedure, or the unem¬ployment itself and the factorscontributing to it—had it beenpresented as the answer wouldSee “Rome, 11 o'clock," page 9Cents Worth of Hope,” among stairs the young woman who stepsothers, has made it impossible out of turn becomes most friendlyfor him to further ignore it. with the girl who dies—are usedRome, Eleven O’clock goes be- for dramatic intensity, whereasyond the mere fact of unemploy- the drama should more realistic-ment to suggest its causes.

Conducted by Richard Vikstrom, the program will feature works by Sammar-tim, Telemann, Bach, Beethoven and Haydn.The first work, the Concerto Grosso for String Orchestra, Op. 11, No. 4, is by GiuseppeSammaitini, the brother of the better known Giovanni Battista. Giuseppe was an oboevirtuoso of the first half of theRichard E. Vikstrom eighteenth century, and wasfirst oboist at the ItalianOpera in London and later cham¬ber musician to the Prince ofWales. At his death in 1740 he leftsome 38 compositions, includingsix concerti grossi. The soloistswill include George Kulles andPaul Revitt, violins, Julius Klein,cello and Wilfred Weeks, bass.Georg Philipp Telemann(1681-1767) was a contemporaryof Bach, and the most celebratedcomposer of his time. He heldnumerous important positions, and declined an offer of the postof cantor at the Thomasschule,which Bach later accepted. Anamazingly prolific composer, heleft approximately 4,000 worksfor all sorts of combinations.The Collegium will perform hisConcerto for Flute and Orches¬tra, with James Mack as soloist.Next on the program is Bach'sSonata No. 1 for Viola da Gambaand Cembalo, with Julius Klein,gamba and Gerald Phillips, cem¬balo. The viola da gamba was afive or more stringed instrumenttuned in fourths and thirds, and played like a ’cello, with a smallbut expressive tone.The concert closes with Bee¬thoven’s Trio, Op. 87 for TwoOboes and English Horn, withRobert Goldstein and HowardFriden, oboes, and Leland Smith,English horn, and Haydn’s Sym¬phony in C Minor, called No. 78by one of the many systems ofnumbering, presumably fromhis fruitful but lesser knownmiddle period.The concert begins at 8:30 p.m.,and is open to the public withoutcharge.

For, irrespective of, orperhaps in spite of, the title ofthe book, the central theme of itis a conjuration of "Brethrenvalue” and "Brethren image of,the good man.”It is equally painful to resistthe pious incantations, whichseem to decorate the vividlynoble spirit of the author. Cer¬tainly, the plausibility of thisresistance is not ignored by theauthor, who qualifies some ofhis descriptions and pleas, by adiplay of incidental doubts abouttheir real merits. Thus, by mak¬ing the statement: “Attitudesaie caught, not taught” as thetitle of his Chapter VII, he clear¬ly acknowledges the impact oflife experiences upon individualattitudes. Yet, in line with hismain moralistic orientation, heopens this same chapter withthe nebulous definition that “At¬titudes are what we are atheart” <p. 87).One is inclined to believe thatone reason for this common ambi¬valence is Professor Eby’s force-Oooops. . .Due to a printer's error, the sig-natui-2 on the review two weeksago of University Theatre's PLAY¬BOY OF THE WESTERN WORLDwos omitted. The review shouldhove been signed by Arlene Kramer. fill yet objectively untenable pro¬jection of his values and wishesinto the web of social realities. In¬deed, the book is predicated uponand revolves around, an intenseself - consciousness closely alliedwith a form of autobiography.The author has the inveterateurge to make his life experiencesedifying universally. The insist¬ence that it is not difficult topractice "an example of fellow¬ship” and “the formula of service”<96), illustrates the unfortunatesway of this attitude in his think¬ing—or at least in his arguments.The designation, “Truth has aDouble Face,” of Chapter 10,aroused considerable interest inthis reviewer, in terms of its ap¬pearance of defying simplemind¬edness. The expectations aris¬ing from this interest were asunjustified as the subsequentrealization that one shouldn’ttake titles too seriously.As usual, the entire discussionis punctuated by illustrations andrecounts of personal experiences.But ultimately they prove to bean implied dichotomy of the truthof the self “against the one trueWay” (132).Nor can one dismiss this di¬chotomy by the author’s indul¬gence in a concluding platitude,which broadcasts the idea that“truth is ... that by which theylive and on which they act.” Inthe estimation of this reviewer,the most tangible contributionProfessor Eby offers in his bookis the discussion on “the hero asa man.” Here is ample confirma¬tion of the Spenglerian verdictwhich ascribes a Faustian spiritto contemporary civilization, where self - assertiveness andultimate heroism are dominantprinciples. Here is evidence ofan unmistakable realization, at¬testing to the universal sway of“the terrifying will to destruc¬tiveness.”The author bitterly assails thefact that “We brethren claim tobe a pacifist church. Yet fewerthan 10 per cent of our boys main¬tained that pacifist position in thelast war” (167). But, is complain¬ing identical with, or is it condu¬cive to, an understanding of theunderlying factors of this phenom¬enon? To a Harvard anthropolo¬gist, man is still a predatory ape,acquisitive, savage, and inexor¬ably selfish when confronted withcrucial as well as critical alterna¬tives. To Professor Eby, on theother hand, and to Niebuhr, whowrote the Foreward, religious life,or dedication to religious principleand God, may provide an answerto the perplexing and harsh reali¬ties of civilized life. Goethe, whodramatized the idea of the Faus¬tian culture, with his monumentalwork bearing the same name, hadan answer to the question as tohow indispensable religion is. Hisanswer is poeticized as follows:Wer wissenschaft und KunstbesitztEr hat ReligionWer sie nicht besitztEr habe Religioni He who has arts and sciencesHas also religion; He who doesn’thave them He should have re¬ligion.)May we never forget thatmost religious, Christianity in¬cluded, arose out of efforts toPLAYWRIGHTS T.

This inept ness is not only his¬torically valid, but, because ofthat, indicative of the sway offorces, which ’defy religiousfervor, for that matter, even theideal of celestial happiness.Prof. Eby’s references to Koest-ler ("men cannot be treated asunits”) p. 163; to Dostoevski’sauthoritarian Inquisitor, p. 150;and, through a moving recount in¬volving his daughter’s essay,(where she bravely emulates herfather’s ethic as a high school stu¬dent) to Machiavelli, are interest¬ing but do net exhaust the implica¬tions of the problems they referto. Their pathological dimensionsare, for example, either ignoredor relegated to the factors of un¬ethical and irreligious attitudes.The author's account of “stu¬dents of mine” who, animatedby higher ideals of service tothe “Worker,” proceeded toserve, but, confronting the work¬er “with the small *w,’ ” experi¬enced shock and dismay, and hisevaluations symbolize this in¬adequacy.

And certainly Za-vattini could not fall back upona deliberately absurd ending asin “Miracle in Milan.” Only bypresenting the naked facts, al¬beit this time with some largescratches beneath the surface,could this narrative structurebe effective.Zavattini had a choice. He couldhave stuck to the naked facts ashe did with Bicycle Thief and pro¬duced an irresolute story, therebyrejecting the developments in therealistic approach since BicycleThief, or he could have presentedthe facts w'ith some background.In choosing the later he has writ¬ten one of the most realistic andhuman Italian films to appear inthis city.

It is time forsome recognition, and perhapssome cheers, for any such associa¬tion that has survived that long inan environment hostile to fem¬inine activity more strenuous than- for instance—bridge.WAA and women’s athletics ingeneral have followed a courseclosely parallel to men’s athletics.Very popular and well supportedfrom the time Ida Noyes Hallwas built in 1916 on through thetwenties, WAA did not start de-Spring-UCninestartspracticingWith the opening day double-header on April 3 less than amonth away, varsity Baseballcoach, Kyle Anderson, has begunheavy drills on the North Field forhis present 27 man squad. Ander¬son, noting the return of a largenumber of experienced lettermenand players from the 1953 squad,envisions a successful season forthe Maroons.The corps of lettermen includeinfielders Wendell Marumoto,Dave Utley and Bruce Colby, andoutfielders George Grey and BobMann. Strengthening the infieldfrom last year’s varsity and JVsquad are Mario Baur, Jeff Marksand Don Mazukell.Broyles main pitcherThe pitching staff looks strongand ambitious, according to An¬derson. Veteran chucker JohnBroyles is bolstered by rookiesPaul Hershall, Charles Young-quist and Jerry Lux—all with ex¬perience on high school teams.First string catcher appears to berookie Walt Walker.Anderson still looks forward tospirited competition for his nine,and with the short time until open¬ing day hopes that more boys whohope for action on this year’ssquad will take advantage of thetwo daily practice sessions at12:30 and 3:30, and of the vaca¬tion practice. dining until Hutchins, in 1932, putphysical education on a purely op¬tional basis as part of his new planof education; it would haveseemed peculiar to have gym theonl^ class with required attend¬ance. Before 1932, WAA hadplayed a large role in campus so¬cial life, sponsoring parties anddances. Afterwards Student Unionbegan to take over more of thesefunctions.Because of the optional attend¬ ance plan, which was to run fora ten year trial period, the ath¬letic role of WAA also began todwindle. In 1942, at the end of thetrial period, a faculty meetingapproved required physical edu¬cation, presumably because ofwar-time pressure for better con¬ditioning of potential draftees.However the war has been overfor nearly nine years, and the newprogram has not yet been inaugu¬rated.WAA resembles male athleticsThis leaves WAA in a positionlike that of men’s athletics. Butwithout any pep club to cheer, orany female Joe Howards or KenStapleys to win newspaper space, the Association stresses participa-pation even more. There are threelevels to this participation. Thefirst is intercollegiate and intra¬mural, and operates through WAAitself. The second is part of thegeneral women’s physical educa¬tion program, and is called in¬structional. This is open to stu¬dents, employees, and the facultyof the University, and is requiredonly for pre-high school gradu¬ates. The third, also a part of thegeneral program, is scheduled rec¬reation under the supervision ofstaff members.Heading the whole 'women’sphysical education staff is MissEdith Ballwebber. Staff members under her each specialize in twoor three sports or activities. MissKatherine Manning, a formermember of the Humphrey Weid-man concert group, teaches mod¬ern and social dancing. Miss NellEastburn instructs golf, bowlingand social dancing. Miss MarthaKloo and Miss Shirley Thinemanalso work with WAA. Hockey,volleyball, swimming, badminton,bowling, softball and tennis arethe sports the Association plays.Besides the facilities in Ida Noyes,women’s athletics uses the Mid¬way during the autumn, five ten¬nis courts on 60th St., a hockeyfield and a golf green and ap¬proach.Shown above are three girls par¬ticipating in three of the sportsoffered by the Women's AthleticAssociation — bowling, basketballand volleyball.Fencers to facecollege champsin NCAA meetSome of the nation’s best col¬legiate fencers will compete in theNational Collegiate Athletic Asso¬ciation championships which willbe held in Bartlett Gym, Fridayand Saturday, April 23 and 24.Over' forty schools will enterthree-man teams, each school hav¬ing one competitor in eachweapon.Chicago will be represented byErnie Dunston, major letter win¬ner, in foil; Alex Shane, anotherthird-year fencer, in epee; and Da¬vis Bobrow, a first-year fencer, onsabre.The Maroons close their seasonin a home meet tomorrow againstNotre Dame and Lawrence Tech.

Frank Loomoscontinued his supremacy in the low hurdles, winning his specialty in :07.0, and Roger For¬sythe scored a surprise upset over defending champion Joe Howard in the shot put, throw¬ing 42' 4" for his first majorvictory.It was truly a team victoryas the Maroons, running withoutthe aid of their graduate contin¬gent, did creditably in all events.Loomos picked up a second in the60-yd. dash and ran on the meet-deciding 8-lap relay to lead Ma¬roon scorers with 11 points.Shephard is team workhorseDave Shephard, team work¬horse, placed third in the dash,third in the broad jump, fifth inthe lows, and ran on two Chicagorelays to contribute 10% pointsto the team cause.
