Participants in the otherevents will include Robert M.Hutchins, former chancellor oftho University and Stanley Reed,retired associate justice of theSupreme Court.The cornerstone of the modernglass and concrete group of struc¬tures which Nixon will dedicatewas laid less than sixteen monthsago by Chief Justice Earl Warrenand Viscount Kilmuir. Lord HighChancellor of Great Britain.When asked why seven dedica¬tory exercises were being held,Edward Levi, dean of the school,replied that “in order to reflectthe many different aspects of thelaw it seemed appropriate to ar¬range a series of events through¬out the academic year rather thanto crowd too much into too fewdays.”Nixon, the highest ranking law¬yer in t h e executiv e branch ofthe government, will deliver thededicatory lecture Monday eve¬ning to an audience of five hun¬dred guests in the lounge of thenew building. Chancellor Kimptonwill introduce the vice president.The second of the seven eventswill be held Tuesday evening,when, after a special dinner forthe entering law school class,Lloyd Garrison will deliver a pub-lit' lecture. Garrison, former deanof the University of Wisconsinlaw school, will speak at ?? pm.Three special conferences haveboon arranged • In honor of thenew building-complex; each willconsider a different topic and eachwill have a different panel of rriendiscussing the issue at hand. Thefirst conference, to be held this Th ursday, will center on “the pub¬lic servant.” Robert MaynardHutchins will be the featuredsp' nker at the second conference,November 18, which will deal with“Power and responsibility.”The subject of the third confer¬ence, “Criminal justice” will beconsidered on January 7. A fourthconference is a possibility, accord¬ing to James Ratcliffe, assistantdean of the school. However, heexplained, it is unlikely that an¬other such gathering can be ar¬ranged.The sixth special event of theyear will be held on March 1 whenLord Alfred Thompson Denningwill deliver the fourth ErnestFreund lecture. Lord Denning,one of the law lords of Great Brit¬ain, sits as a member of England’shighest court in the House ofLords and the Privy council.The end of the dedicatory yearwill be marked by a special convo¬cation on May 1 which will beheld in Rockefeller chapel.

We refer not to the razzle-dazzle neo-Juvenile inanities which seem to be a growingforce in this new college, but strictly to theacademic program.Whether or not the new four year program ispreferable to the old fourteen-comp degree is amoot point. We have not decided this question; itIs at best an historical problem. But there seemsBo doubt that this new academic program is in¬estimably superior to the confused make-shift|oint-degree plan under which we have operatedSince 1953.This new program evinces a real return to theprinciples of general education which motivatedthe college in its greatest moments; it was longmgo realized that in many ways this fourteen-compprogram was impractical. The new college willletain much of the best of the old program withinA more workable system.The general education component of the univer¬sity was never intended to last more than twoyears, except for the early entrant. Unfortunatelyfew high school graduates placed out of enoughjcourses to complete their college work in twoyears. Under the joint-degree program, this re¬sulted in students never taking some of the finestbourses the university had to offer, courses likeSocial science three, humanities three, and OMP.The solution to this, though seemingly obvious,Iras difficult to reach: divising a program whichIrould fit adequately and completely into twoyears. Much has been lost by the compression thatResulted, but even more has been gained. The second half of the new program, the yearof specialization and the year of free and guidedelectives, seems to us a commendable idea. As theChancellor has pointed out, there is somethingvaluable in taking a course in Greek just for thesake of learning the language. Despite everythingyou will be told, this program is very close to whatHutchins intended and very close to what heachieved. Moreover, this program exists as a valu¬able construction completely independent ofHutchins. It is a significant contribution to educa¬tional theory.Had the time been appropriate in 1953, Chancel¬lor Kimpton claims, it would have been desirableto institute the new current curriculum instead ofthe joint-degree plan. Tt is understandable whythis wasn’t done. Though actually much closer tothe general educational tenents of the old Hutchinsplan than the joint-degree plan, the new college atfirst glance appears to be much farther away.At first glance the new college might appear tobe a compromise, or worse, a denial of the basicvalidity of the general education program. It isnot. Instead it is a reaffirmation of this program—it is a curriculum which can function in themid-sixties.We are not without reservations. A good dealthat is being done seems haphazard. Many im¬portant decisions are being made on the spot be¬cause there isn’t time for extensive deliberation.The bachelor of science degree remains untouched,unspoiled and unfortunate.Yet the College will survive this year, will be allthe better for this year. As students we have theoption of continuing the intellectual traditions ofan institution whose own intellectual traditionshave been strengthened.Is Nixon representativeof law school attitudes?Eighteen months ago Earl Warren laid theCornerstone of the New Law school buildings.The choice of our chief justice to performthis action was apt and fortunate; Waren is anIntelligent, articulate and liberal force.This Monday, Richard Nixon will dedicate thisSew structure. As to the choice of the vice-presi*tfent, we have reservations.Nixon is the highest ranking lawyer in theexecutive branch of the government. True enough.Nixon’s appearance will provide the Law Schooljrith a fine send off, in terms of publicity. Both national and local media are covering the event.Good publicity is never a bad thing and this pub¬licity will almost certainly be good.But, does Richard Nixon represent the kind oflawyer, the kind of politician, the kind of thinkerthat our school wants to turn out? Is Nixon to beregarded as a prototype by JD candidates? DoesNixon represent the legal, intellectual and moralphilosophy of our Law school. We certainly hopenot.Perhaps Helen Gahagan Douglas might havebeen a better choice as chief dedication speaker.LBookstore here for profitor for students? New seriesIn a few days entering students will have theirAcademic programs mapped out and will then beprepared to troop over to the University Bookstore|o buy their texts and syllibi and other coursetoks and materials. Returning students are un-cky; they’ve experienced this displeasure before.When you are presented with your thirty or forty0ollar book bill, don’t flinch. It’s not becoming.The bookstore on this campus is a profit makingconcern and not too much more. The greatestservice it provides students and faculty is its loca¬tion, and this says little for the store.The Bookstore has stonily rejected any sugges¬tion for offering students books at discounts. TmIn business to make money. If you sell studentsbooks at discounts you’re subsidising students,And it’s not my job to subsidize students.” In thisgray Dempster S. Passmore, head of the store, sum¬marizes his position.And so the bookstore charges full prices on allVs items although they get an eleven percent dis¬count on syllibi, a twenty percent discount on textbooks, a forty percent discount (roughly) on allOther books, and discounts ranging from forty toAbcty percent on their other items—such as clothes,Cameras and hot sandwiches.The bookstore is also one of the few in theAcademic world which does not offer a facultyittlacount. "It would be unfair to students,” Pass-more explains. ”If I gave the faculty a discount,then I'd have to give the students a discount, andben everybody would want one. Many other stores would like to copy our no discount system.It’s so easy to administer.”*Tm not in business to promote book buyinginterest in the student body if there is no profitin it for the bookstore.”In its way, this is a very understandable posi¬tion. In the first place, the Bookstore does not for¬mulate its own policy. This is done for it in theAdministration building. And if the bookstore isthere to make a profit, then a profit it shouldmake. It is doubtful if more money would comein were the prices lowered much. The money madegoes for good purposes—it pays faculty salaries,provides for building maintenance, makes possiblelecture series, and all the other activities of theUniversity. The money is got fairly and used well.But our position is that it is exactly the Book¬store’s business to promote book-buying in thestudent population, even if there is no profit in itfor anybody. We don’t think that this is the placethe University should be looking for profit. We arenot in sympathy with Passmore’s statement thatstudents who feel they need a discount on booksalways have the University’s loan funds at theirdisposal.We don't propose a Co-op bookstore; this wouldtake^rnore money to administer than would beturned back to students. What we do advocate issome means of making it easier for students toobtain, permanently, the books they need, wantand will use. This question will be considered atgreater length in future Maroon editorials. On Campos withMaShaben(Author of “1 Was o Teen-age Dwarf \ “The ManyLoves of Dobie GiUis”, etc.)ANOTHER YEAR, ANOTHER DOLLARToday I begin my sixth year of writing this column for themakers of Philip Morris and Marlboro Cigarettes. For this Iget money.Not, let me hasten to state, that payment is necessary. “Sirs,”I said a few days ago to the makers of Philip Morris and Marl¬boro, “if I can introduce America’s college men and women toPhilip Morris and Marlboro, and thus enhance their happiness,heighten their test, upgrade their gusto, magnify their cheer,and broaden their bliss, there is no need to pay me because I ammore than amply rewarded.”We wept then. I’m not ashamed to say it. WE WEPT! Iwish the wiseacres who say big business is cold and heartlesscould have been there that day. I wish they could have seenthe great, shimmering tears that splashed on the board roomtable. We wept, every man jack of us. The makers wept—thesecretaries wept—I wept—my agent, Clyde Greedy, wept Wewept alt •“No, no!” cried the makers. “We insist on paying you.Tn Ik&toMeiio pjyme-j“Oh, very well,” I said, and the gloom passed like a summershower. We laughed and we lit Philip Morrises and Marlboros—and some of us lit Alpines—which is a brand-new cigarette fromthe makers of Philip Morris and Marlboro—a fine new cigarettewith a light touch of menthol and the rich taste of choice tobaccosand the longest filter yet devised. And if you are one who likesa fine new cigarette with a light touch of menthol and the richtaste of choice tobaccos and the longest filter yet devised, youwould do well to ask for new king-size Alpines. If, on the otherhand, you do not like menthol but do like better makin’s anda filter that does what it’s built for, ask for Marlboro. Or, if youdon’t like filters at all, but only mildness, ask for Philip Morris.Any way you play it, you’re a winner.But I digress. “Will you,” said the makers of Philip Morris,Marlboro and Alpine, “write about the important issues thatoccupy the supple young minds of college America this year inyour column?”“But of course,” I replied, with a kindly chuckle.“And will you,” asked the makers, “from time to time say apleasant word about Philip Morris, Marlboro and Alpine?”“Crazy kids!” I said with a wry grin, pushing my fistgently against their jaws. “You know I will.”And we all shook hands—silently, firmly, manlily. And I left,dabbing my eyes with my agent, and hurried to the nearesttypewriter. « ms m.» shuim»»The makers of Philip Morris, Marlboro and Alpine take greatpleasure in bringing you another year of this uncensored,free-wheeling column.MARKET RESEARCHThe Toni Company, A Division of Gillette, needs two qualifiedpeople for its Marketing Research Department.

An Achilles*like wrath hassurged up within me. Thecause of Achilles’ wrath camefrom some god-like sourcedeep within him. The cause of mywrath comes merely from one of.the slight insults that God vendsupon us from time to time just toremind us that He is still there.I am referring to God’s bells—theones that are now under the careof Rockefeller Chapel.Every Wednesday, and twice onSunday, an abominable noisecomes from that beautiful build¬ing. These bells are either off keyor have no key. Let me quotesome authorities. Mozart demand¬ed an accurate and consistentrhythm. The ground shakes withMozart’s wrath every time thebells play. And I remember (withgreat pain) the time that Rocke¬feller attempted to play a themefrom Beethoven’s Ninth. Theground shook with Beethoven’swrath.Rockefeller fails with regard to rhythm, tone quality, pitch, andharmony. As Hum. 1 teaches, thatdoes not leave much.I can well suspect that the bellswere purchased from a Sears Roe¬buck catalog on a no return basis,and that the authorties feel that,since they were well paid for, itis wrong not to use them.If, on the other hand, it is God’swill that these bells be rung, and Istrongly suspect that it is — forthere is no way to keep out theirnoises though one goes down intothe cellar, which is supposed tokeep out H-bombs, and closesdoors, windows, blinds, and ears— if, I repeat, it is a manifestationof the wrath of God to prevent usfrom reading Freud and Darwinthen there is little that we can doabout i.tWhat I shall do then is to meetHim on His own grounds, turn upmy Victrola as loudly as possible,and play a Bach Contata — musicthat really does justice for God.SnurdDisagrees with letter damningMitchell tower “hour of painI found the letter concerning the Alice Freeman Palmer Memorial Chime in MitchellTower, insulting to the field of companological study, showing a lack of understanding ofthe function of a university, and in poor taste on the part of the Maroon.To me, a university is a training ground where a person may develop his talents andinterests. The university responsibly maintains a staff of outstanding professional acclaim,and this in turn attracts students from all fields of endeavor.Also in a university a studentshould have the opportunity toinvestigate other fields in whichhe finds new or additional inter¬est. The study and practice of bellringing is one area (particularlysuited to the university) whichthe Maroon evidently judges onlyworthy of making “cute," deroga¬tory comments upon.The Univeristy of Chicago IsIndeed fortunate in having a manof Mr. Lawson’s professionalstanding to head its companologi¬cal endeavors. Mr. Lawson is high¬ly respected in the musical worldfor his talents as a teacher and asan accomplished artist. *His work in promoting interestin hell music and his publicationsThe Maroon not only gave thisperson printed space to air his personal lack of understanding,but it was evident that some edi¬tor shared this lack of understand¬ing and this desire to attract someattention with derogatory com¬ments (i.e. the editorial comment “hear, hear,” which fully carriesconnotation of agreement withthe letter.)

Hewas much the same as mostother boys except for onething — he was smart. Sowhen the time came for himto graduate high school, a personnamed Candlewick came to seehim to tell him about a wonderfulland far away where nobody hadto work or do anything unpleas¬ant. It was called University ofChicago.The idea appealed to Pinnoc¬chio, and so—ignoring pleas ofthe sober members of the com¬munity—he left for that wonder¬ful place. It was all he haddreamed it to be. No one studied;everyone spent their time at theCShop and the campus bars.Eveiyone was intelligent—or atleast sounded intelligent Couldlife be more delightful?Amidst all this luxury, Pinnoc¬chio noticed one disquieting thing.After people had been at the Uni¬versity for a little while, strangethings began to grow on theirfaces. Beards. Then other thingswould happen. They would stopdressing as they had done whenthey first came there, and beginto wear funny clothes: sweat¬shirts that were two large, paint-spotted blue jeans, and sandals (even in winter). Pretty soon,Pinnocchio wouldn’t see themanj’more, unless he happened tospot them in the corner of a darkbar talking furtively about veryabstruse topics (Plato, Marx,weltschmerz, etc.).Another curious thing caughtPinnocchio’s eye. No one everseemed to leave the University.Pinnocchio was not bothered bythis because he knew that comeJune he would return to his na¬tive village to spend three monthsrevisiting his old friends. Butwhen June came and Pinnocchioreturned home, it was all differ¬ent. He could no longer communi¬cate with those old friends. Nor,in fact, did he have anything tosay to his parents. Poor peasantsthat they were, they just couldn’tcomprehend the mysteries of theC sharp minor quarter or baskw’ith him in the warmth of a Kleepainting. One month at home andPinnocchio returned to the Uni¬versity — home was too unbear¬able. did go outside it; people alwayssnickered.The next year Pinnocchio didn’tgo home at all. It was so mucheasier staying on campus duringthe summer, working (if you cancall it that) at the Ad buildingand going to the Hyde Park The¬atre or University Theatre atnight. He found that he too wasgrowing a beard on his chin.

Pin¬nocchio couldn’t tell his parentsthe truth—that he was afraid togo outside the University now. Sowhen he did write home (whichwas most rare), he told them hewas working for a PhD. whichoccupied all his time and whichwould keep him stuck at the Uni¬versity for many more years.The PhD. was a fine excusewhile it lasted. But one day,many, many years later the Uni¬versity gave Pinnocchio his PhD.What to do? It was really too latenow to try to go out into theworld having spent all those yearsat the University and looking andbeing so different from all thosepeople at the outside world. Pin¬nocchio took the easy way outand became an instructor. Nowhe, rather than Candlewick, madesure that all the little boys enter¬ing the University never left it.The end was tragic. One daythe University dropped Pinnoc-chio's contract (he hadn’t pub¬lished enough) and he had toleave. There is no need to recountthe horrors Pinnocchio passedthrough as he left the world ofgreat ideas at the University andsojourned through the world ofreal things — you can certainlyimagine them for yourself, Pin¬nocchio.Franc tireur Gadfly PolicyGadfly is an attempt on the part of fhe Maroon to pro¬vide provocative ideas to the campus at large.

Sincethe days of William RaineyHarper, first president of theUniversity, it has been customaryto celebrate the birthday of theUniversity’s chief officer withspecial peals from the Gothic belltower at the corner of 57th streetand University avenue.

Brenda Beck, one ofthe few lady bell-ringers inAmerica, will ring the “Alma Mater”; the bagpipes will beplayed by Kurt Stenn; and thepeal on three swinging bells willbe operated by David Frodin,Robert Gerwin and Gailard Hunt.The bell ringers are looking foran authentic Tibetan with goodlungs to blow the trumpet, whichonce sounded on state occasionsin Tibet.

He has heldmany distinguished posts, includ¬ing director-general of United Na¬tions Educational, Scientific andCultural Organizations from 1946to 1948.Sir Julian is an older brotherof novelist Aldous Huxley.Sir Julian not only submitted apaper on the history of Darwin¬ism. but also contributed com¬ments on all the other papers.In his article, Sir Julian saidthat Charles Darwin himselfemerged at the right moment inevolution.Scientific knowledge had ad¬vanced far enough so that Dar¬win’s theories were appreciated,Sir Julian said, but not so far thatthey were out of date.A different fate would havebefallen Darwin if he had comeupon the world scene earlier orlater.Sir Julian put it this way: “Iwould guess that if he (Darwin)had been bom in 1709 he mightwell have become a good amateurnaturalist . . . one who would,perhaps, have indulged in some in¬teresting speculations on naturalhistory, but would not have beenlikely to make any major discov¬eries or to exert any important in¬fluence on scientific or generalthinking.“If he had been born in 1909, hemight at most , . . have achievedsome eminence as a professionalecologist (who studies the rela¬tionships between an organismand its environment). In the onecase the time was unripe, in theother over-ripe. .. .“It is in large measure due toDarwin’s work on biological evo¬lution that we now possess thisnew vision of human destiny, andonly by using Darwin’s natural¬istic approach in tackling theproblems of psycho-social evolu¬tion can we hope to understandthat destiny better and to fulfillit more adequately.” Centennial expert explores thePossible future evolution of manThe forthcoming Darwin centennial program at the Uni¬versity of Chicago will feature numerous papers on the bio¬logical basis of man’s physical and cultural inheritance. Atleast one biologist among this array of prominent specialistshas taken a hard, practical look at man’s future in the lightof known evolutionary mechanisms. H. J. Muller, Nobel laure¬ate of Indiana university, informs us in a challenging voice thatwe.may expect steady increase of biological character antagonisticto the welfare of the human species.Muller argues that present human deficiencies are compensatedby special clothing, special foods, mediciments, vaccines, etc., andthus our culture allows a large number of unfavorable mutations tosurvive and breed their kind. Although moral imperatives and socialwelfare presently sanction aid to the weak and incapacitated, itseems reasonable to Muller to expect that increased dependenceupon artificial contrivances will be unsatisfactory for the sensitiveand ambitious protypes of future cultures. In addition to this in¬dividual frustration, a very large proportion of the time and wealthof society will be invested in keeping the degenerate portion aliveand functioning. This crisis may be postponed until some date hun¬dreds or thousands of years away, but it will be increasingly diffi¬cult to correct as time passes.These arguments are the negative side of Muller’s appeal for anintelligent eugenics program. There is an equally important casefor directed evolution in order to potentiate man’s highest abilitiesto meet the needs of cultural and technical advances. In a pro¬gressively integrated and mutually-dependent world society, traitsof love and altruism must be selected over that of extreme tendencyto aggressiveness. In Muller’s genetic utopia the development ofa more multi dimensional intellect would allow man to solve morecomplicated problems and enjoy a richer intellectual experience inunderstanding his world. Muller suggests that the efficiency of com¬munication may be strikingly improved through a radical develop¬ment of a light-emitting organ capable of projecting phosphorescentimages in the manner of television at a tempo nearly that of ourmost rapid thought processes. Except for the constant danger ofbroadcasting one’s unconscious impressions and wishes in provoca¬tive imagery, this neurological miracle would open new vistas toboth the educator and the artist.Muller says that the individual must not emphasize self-glorifica¬tion in begetting children but rather the good of the children and offuture generations in general. “The entering wedge of positiveselection” would be artificial insemenation. Thousands of couplescurrently use this technique successfully. Muller is, however, un¬impressed by the genetic endowment of most donors.Other techniques thought plausible from experiments upon lowervertebrate species may be utilized in this genetic upgrading of ourspecies. Some of these are: in vivo sperm cultivation, parthenogen¬esis, super-ovulation, and transplantation of somatic cell nuclii intoova to give the egg a new inheritance. The latter case suggests tothis writer genetic control unimagined outside of science fiction. Intheory, at least, each prospective mother could write to her favoritecinema idol not for an autograph, but for a frozen sample of dis-pensible soma to be ultimately transformed in her own womb intoa near likeness of her enamored ideal.HELP!!We have 78,627USED and NewBooks for Sale.Please buy your booksfrom us so I won't hare tocount them again!!FOLLETT’S BOOKSBack To School Specials50 Only NEW "Precision" Drawing Sets.Made of German rolled silver.

Since we live in[ the most interesting age sincethe dawn of history, we arecurSed with problems greater,more numerous, and more diffi¬cult Ilian any that ever afflictedany of our predecessors on thisplanet. Many of these problemsresult, oddly enough, from theprogress we have made towardthe goals that our predecessorshave always cherished: the aboli¬tion of death, the abolition of pov-erty. the abolition of work, and theconquest of nature. We are in theposition ‘of the little boy whoasked Santa Claus for a volcano^ and got it.There is something about thepursuit of social goals thatplagues all who struggle towardthem. The absorption in the strug¬gle inhibits thought about whatis to be done when it has suc¬ceeded. I suppose nobody involvedin a major war ever found thetime and energy to think what hewas going to do with victorywhen he got it.

An illustration is the Na¬tional Education Defense Act Itwas pushed through under theinfluence of sputnik to give us the■Scientists and engineers we were(alleged to need if we were, as thesaying goes, to stay ahead of Rus-fsia. Having with herculean effortami much self-congratulation ad¬opted this measure, the effects ofwhich cannot possibly be felt forten years at least, we are beingtold that there is under no circum¬stances to be a war In which thesescientists and engineers will berequired. On the contrary, we arenow to capture the minds of menby peaceful plans of economic andsocial development. In this newtask scientists and engineers willdoubtless have their place, but Itwill be nothing like the leadingL^role they would enjoy if the maintask of the next generation wereIm* the invention and produc¬tion of more stupefying tvpes ofmilitary hardware. What we aregoing to need is a different kindof man to do a different kind ofjob. We may he pardoned the fore-^ boding that if we ever get aroundto producing the kind of man weare now said to need, we shall dis¬ cover at that epoch that we havefor some time needed a quite dif¬ferent kind.Our situation always seems tochange too fast for our ideas. Un¬der these circumstances it is easyto become cynical about ideas, andespecially about ideals. It is alto¬gether likely, for example, thatuniversal suffrage has strength¬ened (he hands of ruling oligar¬chies throughout the world. It islikely too, that universal educa¬tion has debased culture, for ithas created a vast semi-literatemarket for debased cultural prod¬ucts. As a result of the reductionin working hours, great barrenstretches have been created in ourlives. Because of our wealth, com¬bined with our leisure, we are be¬ginning to show those signs ofjuvenile and adult delinquencywhich have been exhibited by theleisure class throughout history.The Maroon here reprints the com¬plete text of the speech Hutchinspresented in Chicago on September20 to the Jewish Community andFamily service league.For the problem of disease wehave substituted that of popula¬tion The conquest of nature hasturned out to be in every senseexplosive, for it has put everycity in the world within shooting range of every other, and givenus at the same time the means ofdestroying all of them at one shotSelf-determination, the goal thatwe announced for Europeans dur¬ing the first World War, has,when taken over by Asians andAfricans, led to a global revolu¬tion that is just beginning andthat will result in profound andcontinuous disorders for years tocome.As I say, when the situation ofa country changes too fast for theideas of the country, the countryruns the risk of having its ideasdiscredited. Consider too the ideaof democracy and the idea of therights of the worker. The first haslong been regarded as of univer¬sal application and a universalremedy. If anything was wrongwith anything, all we had to dowas to democratize it As to thesecond, when I was younger, thetest of a man’s liberalism washow strongly he lined up on theside of labor against the employ¬ers. The present discussion of thelabor unions has a bearing on thestate of these ideas in the situa¬tion today. As to democracy, wenote that all the forces of reformare now directed against allowingMr. Hoffa to use democratic pro¬ cedures in the management of hisunion. Those who do not like Mr.Hoffa know that the teamsterswill overwhelmingly re-elect himif they ever get the chance to ex¬ercise the franchise. As to thestruggle between labor and cap¬ital, anybody-more than fiftyyears old must find it ironic thatwhen we talk today about a Billof Rights for labor, it turns outthat this means principally therights of the union memberagainst his union, a problem thatcould not even be conceived ofthirty years ago.Thomas Jefferson based h I shopes for American democracy onthe proposition that we would notlive in cities, that we would allbe self-employed, that we wouldall be so educated that we couldmeet any new difficulties, andthat we would be trained in civicvirtue in local government. Nowwe all live in cities, we are all em¬ployed by others, our educationalsystem is devoted to keeping theyoung out of harm’s way until weare ready to have them go towork, and anybody who connectedthe ideas of civic virtue and local government would be sent to apsychiatrist.A Senator was telling me theother day that the legislativebranch of the government had incertain areas ceased to legislate.(Continued on page 13)Robert Maynard HutchinsEntering scholars selectedFifteen of the entering class are members of the newestof the University’s honor societies, instituted last fall.

Students must register for courses, forsections, for degrees and special considerations, information must be col¬lected and properly distributed, fees must be assessed and paid, and all themany ribbons of indispensable red tape must be cut.The new student should find some comfort in the depths of his confusionin the fact that few returning students have any better notion of what isactually going on than he himself.Much time has been spent trying to improve this situation. University registrar William Van Cleve and his staff have made serious efforts to in¬crease the efficiency of registration procedures; out of their efforts havecome several concrete improvements.In an effort to prevent many students from spending many hours stand¬ing in the wrong lines, Van Cleve has released very detailed registration in.formation to the Maroon. The following material should be read completelyand carefully and should be taken along when every student registers. N0other instructions will be issued!The Maroon presents the full detailson registration policies and proceduresRegular registration will be held this Autumn for all students in Academic units on thequadrangles from 8:30 to 11:30 am and from 1:30 to 4:30 pm according to this schedule:returning undergraduates will register today, tomorrow and Monday according to alphabeti¬cal grouping; new undergraduates will complete their registration on Tuesday and Wednes¬day by appointment.Graduate students in all four divisions as well as students in the School of Social Serviceadministration (SSA), GraduateLibrary school (GLS), the Fed¬erated Theological school (FTS),the Graduate School of Educationand the School of Medicine willregister tomorrow and Monday. Registration for the majorityof stmlents will consist simplyof this: stmlents will obtaintheir registration cards in Man-dcl hall. At the appropriatetime, students will go to Bart¬lett gymnasium, consult withtheir advisor, select theircourses, consult with the classsection clerk, select their sec¬tions, obtain their class cardsfrom that clerk, have their feesassessed, pay their fees, andhave their I-D cards validated. takeone which will be open) in orderto be admitted.Students will then be directedto either the third floor indoor“track” (if a non-preregisteredundergraduate) or to the secondfloor (if a preregistered under¬ sections!) which they willduring the coming year."R" RegistrationMany students will want to reg¬ister for the mark R at this time.This mark, is available to moststudents, under certain conditions.The mark signifies that no creditis earned and it may not later bechanged to any credit-conferringgrade.

An academic year forIntroduces new cards. . . After . . .Before exams, know this: • Seventeen little cards hadto be filled out in detail byeach registrant last year. Wil¬liam Van Cleve, the UniversityRegistrar has announced thatthis year’s registration packetwill include only six cards.The most important, and alsothe most complex of these cardsis the census card, which is ac¬companied by a four page in¬struction sheet. The card asks forthe registrant's name, address,and permanent address to beprinted in full. The remainder ofthe card is filled out in codes, in¬volving information ranging fromstatus in the University, and de¬gree program, to religious pref¬erence, and intei'est in student ac¬tivities, and sports. Van Clevestated that he will instruct theadvisors to require only such in¬formation as is necessary to theUniversity’s file, although hewould he w’ould prefer that each“No grades will be released over the telephone” is an un¬broken dictum of the registrar’s office.

He can forexample, give on an hour’s notice,a list of all Lutheran, graduate,soccer players.The other cards include a cardto be sent to the Bursar’s office,two program cards, which maylater be filled by carbon, a driv¬er’s permit card, and a card to besent to the library.“We are trying to persuade thelibrary to drop the extra card,”said Van Cleve, “but they saythat their address information isfiled by student signature, ratherthan actual name spelling. Theformer is apparently the oniyway they can locate studentsfrom by their illegible signatureson book check outs.” these purposes consists of threequarters.To be eligible for deferment astudent must be in the top of hisclass his first year, the upper twothirds his second year and in thetop seventy-five per cent his thirdyear. In order to qualify for de¬ferment for graduate work, a stu¬dent must graduate in the topforth of his class.The University does not have anROTC corps, although it did dur¬ing the thirties. In the early fiftiesthe army offered an officers’ re¬serve training corps unit to theUniversity. This was during theperiod when Chicago was beinginvestigated on all committees,and fearing indoctrination of itsofficers the army withdrew itsoffer.The two non-credit grades, Rand Incomplete will affect a stu¬dent's rank in class adversely, be¬cause no numerical credit can beattached to these two grades.Also, the grade point average andrank in class is computed on thebasis of courses (not comprehen¬sive examinations).In order to be considered a fulltime student, which is the onlykind legally deferred, one mustbe registered for three courseseach quarter.

Even assuming thatCongress could understand theenormous mass of technical de¬tail that went into these appropri¬ations, there was nothing it coulddo about them. If Congress In-creased the amount, the adminis¬tration would reschedule its pur¬chases. Yet the control of thepurse is the traditional method bywhich parliaments have controlledthe executive. It is the way theywon their control in the firstplace.The aim of the West for the lastlf>0 years has been to industrial¬ize and it is now the aim, in whichthe United States is eagerly co¬operating, of the entire world. YetEric Fromm, commenting on thesocial effects of industrialization,asks, “What kind of man, then,does our society need in orderto function smoothly? It needsmen who cooperate smoothly inlarge groups, whose tastes arestandardized. And modern busi¬ness has succeeded in producingthis kind of man. The meaning¬lessness and alienation of workresult in a longing for completelaziness in which he will not haveto make a move, where everythinggoes according to the Kodak slo¬gan—‘You press the button, we dothe rest.’ The individual is intro¬duced into the conformity patternat the age of 3 or 4, and evenhis funeral, which he anticipatesas his last great social affair, is instrict conformance with the pat¬tern.”Industrialization and mechan¬ization have altered the role of theindividual in society. The purposeof industrialization is ultimatelyto get rid of men altogether ex¬cept as consumers. But meanwhilethose men who participate mustbe as interchangeable as possible.Interchangeable parts are neces¬sary for any machinery, and, asman in the industrial system is apart of the machine, the object isto make him interchangeable, too.It has never been suggested thatthere was any place for originalthinking or independent thoughton the assembly line.In the same way the mass sell¬ing and mass advertising thatindustrialization appears to re¬quire in advanced countries aimat the interchangeable man. Sub¬urbia, which is a product of indus¬trialization and mechanization,aims at the interchangeable fam¬ily. The family must be ready tobe uprooted and transported atany time the interests of the cor¬poration require it. The familythat moves in must be as adjustedas the one that moves out.The purpose of adjustment forthe individual and of public rela¬tions for organizations is toachieve invisibility. We don’t wantto have to explain or discuss ourdifferences. We want to be — orat least look — like everybody else. The gray flannel suit is asymbol of the desire to merge imperceptibility into the environ¬ment. It is like camouflage in war—there’s nobody here but us Re¬publicans.Everybody wants to be success¬ful. Since industrialization de- real lie their personal desires.They cheerfully expect to con¬form to the economic status quoand to receive ample rewards fordutiful and productive effort.They anticipate no die hard strug¬gle for the survival of the fittestas each seeks to gratify his ownHutchins at past orientation session.mands that men be interchange¬able, it is not surprising that inan industrialized society we allwant to become interchangeable.The aim of mass education is toprovide the kind of people thatindustry is thought to require.Hence the popularly accepted ob¬ject of education in America is toadjust the young to the group.Adjustment is the process bywhich one becomes an inter¬changeable man.Here Is a report on college stu¬dents written for the Hazen Foun¬dation by a professor of politicalscience at the University of Penn¬sylvania. “The values of Americancollege students are remarkablyhomogeneous. ... A dominantcharacteristic of students ... isthat they are gloriuosly contented.. . . The great majority of stu¬dents appear unabashedly self-centered. They aspire for materialgratifications for themselves andtheir families. They intend to lookout for themselves first and ex¬pect others to do likewise. Butthis Ls not the individualistic self-centeredness of the pioneer.The American students fully ac¬cept the conventions of the con¬temporary business society as the context within which they willdesires, but rather an abundancefor all as each one teams up withhis fellow self-seekers in appoint¬ed places on the American assem¬bly line.”If present tendencies continueunchecked we shall be living a lifein which conscious inertia is ouraim.Recent pharmacological inven¬tions make it possible for us toremain in a kind of daze, and thepopularity of Miltown pills sug¬gests that this may be what weare seeking. We can only hopethat these inventions do not be¬come the monopoly of the rulingelite as Aldous Huxley has pre¬dicted. He says that our presentludicrously crude methods ofpropaganda and brainwashingwill give place to a number ofreally effective psycho-pharmaco¬logical techniques of inculcatingand maintaining conformity. Heforesees great psychic energycommissions operating huge se¬cret laboratories, dedicated not toour hopelessly old-fashioned ideasof mass murder and collectivesuicide, but to the more construc¬tive tasks of man’s definitive do¬ mestication and total enslave¬mentI am aghast aft the HarwellThinkometer, which by a systemof buttons placed before each par¬ticipant permits group decisionswithout the embarrassment of dis¬cussion. You press a button, yes,no or maybe. The machine tellsthe group what it thinks.I am aghast at the Dynamuca-tor, which is alleged to be able toteach you through your pillowwhile you sleep. Without any in¬tellectual effort whatever youmay learn to be an aggressivesalesman, or to speak Russian.I am horrified by the Dial-a-Prayer movement, by which a ma¬chine performs'your devotions foryou, and you do not have to makeany personal exertion to get intouch with the Deity beyond giv¬ing Him a ring.Industrialization, bureaucracy,the Cold War, and the hydrogenbomb may well produce a worldin which conscious inertia is ouraim, and the technical means ofachieving it are within our grasp.But fortunately other forces andtendencies are at work in otherdirections. Some of them are in¬herent in the industrial system it¬self. Bertrand de Jourvenel haswarned us against the railwayconception of history, accordingto which we imagine the future asall laid out on rails runningstraight on from where we are.It may be that our fears of a uni¬versal, torpid conformity are ob¬ solete or that we can make themso.Throughout the advanced coun¬tries the proportion of the populartion working In industry is stead¬ily declining. It is unlikely, forexample, that the same proportionof our people will ever manufac¬ture automobiles again. In Eng¬land and America the shift intothe service trades is proceedingat an accelerated pace. Industry ison the move toward its ultimategoal, the production of goodswithout people. This raises newproblems as it has in agriculture,where half the number of farmersproduce twice the volume of foodthat was derived from their laborsjust a few years ago. One shud¬ders to think of the goods the in¬dustrial system could turn out ifwe were to stop wasting our re¬sources on military hardware.Harrison Brown predicts a four¬fold increase in productivity perman hour in manufacturing anda ten-fold increase in agriculturein the next fifty years.The advance of automationraises the question, what do wedo with our goods? It raises a farmore serious question, what dowe do with ourselves?As to the question, what do wodo with our goods?, though manycountries need them, many do not.We appear to be becoming adebtor nation again.

After all, it is less than thirtyyears since we were willing to ad¬mit that the well-being of the un¬derprivileged in our own countrywas a national responsibility. Em¬inent citizens of Chicago told mein 1931 that Federal relief of theunemployed would be socialism.We still do not admit that the edu¬cation of the citizens of the back¬ward states of our own country isof any Interest to the rest of it,and in consequence the childrenof Mississippi get a worse educa¬tion than those of New York. Nowit is one world or none, and inone good world everybody is go¬ing to be responsible for every¬body else. We are going to haveto think about equal opportunitiesfor the people of Afghanistan andPeru as well as for those of Ala¬bama and Arkansas.But the greatest change in ourattitudes that will be demandedif we are to realize the possibili¬ties of the new world that Is open¬ing before us is a change in theaims of our lives and of our com¬munities and a consequent changein our notions of the aims of edu¬cation. DeTocqueville thoughtthat the necessity that the racewas under to work for a livingmarked the necessary limits ofhuman improvement That im¬provement depended on leisure,and leisure had to be the privilegeof the few. The Athenians, for ex¬ample, built a brilliant civiliza¬tion, but they had to build it onslavery. The civilization, thoughbrilliant was therefore neitherfree nor just If now the curse ofAdam is to be repealed, an un¬precedented era of leisure, abun¬dance, freedom, and justice is be¬fore us — if our intelligence andcharacter are equal to its possi¬bilities. The great difference betweenthe industrial system of today andthat of the future could be thatwhereas today the machines dom¬inate us, in the future we coulddominate them and use them forour human purposes. We live nowlike the Turks of old, who wereruled by their slaves. The automo¬bile determines the shape of oursociety. The assembly line deter¬mines the tempo of our lives.Military technology compels us tomanufacture whatever can bemade, whether or not we need itor can use it, and no matter howrepulsive it is to our moral sense.But if the production of materialgoods ceases to be our main pre¬occupation, we can perhaps givesome attention to thinking whatwe want and why.The Greek word for leisure isthe origin of our word for school.Leisure to the Athenians was nottime spent watching television ordriving aimlessly along the high¬way catching glimpses of thecountryside between the bill¬boards. Leisure meant the effortof the free men to develop hishighest human powers and tomake his city free and just.We are going to have a new so¬ciety and a new world. What weneed is some new ideas. I will ven¬ture the broad generalization thatno existing theory of politics, eco¬nomics, society, or internationalrelations can explain or accountfor the facts of contemporary life.The crisis through which we arepassing is first of all an intellec¬tual one. If our situation haschanged too fast for ideas, whatwe need to do is to re-examine ourideas in the bright light of oursituation. In short, we have tothink.We have never had to before.We were powerful, isolated, andimpregnable. This is why Amer¬ican education is what it is, andwhy the Jewish tradition thatlearning is a form of worship hasnever gained much ground in theUnited States. We have not needededucation for individual success—the financial giants of the pastoften prided themselves on theirilliteracy — or for national powerand progress.

This also isthe answer to the question, whatare we going to do with ourselves? The notion that, edu«*a.tfon is a kind of housing projectin which young people are drtained, or retarded, in which theylearn to get along with one another, and to get ahead of oneanother in a nice way, and fromwhich they emerge as adjusted,but enterprising, well-tubbed » itizens, ready to team up with theirfellow self-seekers on the Amer¬ican assembly line—this notion isa relic of an ignorant, benightedpast that is now deader than thedodo. We must now begin the con¬struction of an educational systemdevoted to tin* development of in¬tellectual power.And wc must commit ourselvesto the idea of continuing educa¬tion throughout our lives. Educa¬tion is not like the mumps, chickenpox, measles, or whoopingcough, a misfortune endured inchildhood, which you need notindeed cannot have again. Educa¬tion is the continuous develop¬ment of our highest powers. It istoo good a thing to be left to ehiidren. In the United States vvehave have the resources, we shallhave the time, and we should heable to muster the intelligence tobuild a civilization as brilliant asthe Greeks, and far more lasting.This organization (The JewishFamily and Community Sendeeleague) has one great distinctionamong many others that shouldbe mentioned on this occasion:it has for a hundred years boonable to change its work — and it*name — in terms of the mostpressing needs of the community.Its original statement or purpose:“to aid ihe poor, to heal the sick,to maintain the orphans, and togive shelter to the aged,” soundsarchaic now. But the organizationhas been able to survive the wel¬fare state as it has every othersocial alteration for a century.Now as we look forward to itssecond hundred years we canwonder what its name will be onits two hundredth anniversary.

We have achieved a unityand clarification in our College of which we areall proud. Because of the devoted labor of thefaculty, we think you will look back upon your experience here with great satisfaction.

You have been recognizedofficially by more deans than youcare to remember, or everyonefrom the Chancellor to thewoman at the desk with yourroom keys and number. In thisissue you can find another going-over — this time including bene¬dictions from the mayor of thecity. By now yob’re fully awareof the fact that you are here, anda welcome from the Maroonmight well seem every bit as sup¬erfluous as it is. Yet the tempta¬tion was there, and now it is beingmet.We welcome you as fellow stu¬dents. That is all. That is all youare, and all you need be.Some schools find it necessaryto initiate their entering students,to test them, to make them provethemselves worthy. We need no’such system here, for any studentwho comes here is already initi¬ated into that small group whichhas recognized the profound im¬portance of learning. This aloneproves your worth much morethan beanies, or strange clothes,or differential manners, or shavedheads or any of the other strange rites practiced on other campuses.Besides, the placement exams areenough of a test for anybody.We welcome you as individuals,with individual dignities, minds,opinions, pursuits. We expect youto expand and develop all of theseattributes while here. You willwaste much time, spout yards ofcant and gibberish, claim a com¬plete and total knowledge of theopera omnii of Plato, Aristotleand Aquinas; you will lie con¬sistently about your intellectualprowess, and you will changeyour opinions 20 times in thecourse of an argument. Good!You will steal ideas, party withyour friends, plagiarize the GreatBooks, fjy off on wild tangents—political, aesthetic and scientific—get drunk, go to the theatersand art galleries, and stay up allnight listening to Bartok. Fine.And you will study, which is bestof all. You will probably studyjust as hard and_ diligently ashave most of your predecessors.It will be sometime before youare fully acclimated to the Uni¬versity. It will be some time be¬fore you’re fully sure whether it’sthe IC or the CTA that you can’tsmoke on, whether it’s Goodspeedor Eckhart that has the math li¬brary', whether its’ Ida Noyes orReynolds club that has the bowl¬ing alley, but nevertheless eachone of you is already one of us.We welcome you as fellow stu¬dents — as peers, friends, andeager and sincere young scholars. Once again an Autumn quarter sees thearrival of some two thousand new students onthe Quadrangles.Well over half of your number have com¬pleted undergraduate careers elsewhere, andcome to the University for advanced study.New graduate students will find challenge inthe academic work of the Divisions andSchools; and for leisure time — of which itis to be hoped that you will arrange somereasonable amount — an environment richin opportunities for intellectual and estheticpleasure. ^There is also the undergraduate. Compa¬rable academic challenge and the identical en¬vironmental richness are fully available forhim. The Chicago tradition by which wespeak of him at the beginning as a first-yearstudent, later as a second-year student, andso on, successively, is not to my knowldegeever intended to obscure the fact that theundergraduate is indeed not a graduate, thatthrough the fault of time and one of his ownhe has not yet had the total educational ex¬perience, curricular and other, implied bv theBA or the BS of a leading American college;and that he has come to Chicago precisely toacquire that total experience. By the timethis is read, entering undergraduates willhave heard Dean Simpson’s address on thecurricular experience which awaits them, andtalks by members of my staff on various as¬pects of the extracurriculum.Beyond this, the elected heads of seventeenmajor student organizations — Student Gov¬ernment (in which undergraduates have pro¬ portional minority representation), the pub¬lications and Radio Midway, IFC, and Inter-Club, Burton-Judson and Inter-dorm Coun¬cils, Blackfriars, FOTA, and the honorariesand service groups — are concluding today athree-day conference in which they will haveconsidered, among many other matters, therole of the entering student in their severalorganizations. I suggest that you give care¬ful consideration to this same subject fromthe point of view of your own interests andexpectations.It is perhaps not sufficiently known thatabout ten per cent of our total student pop¬ulation consists of foreign students. The Uni¬versity is an important center of internationaleducation. I should like to extend particularwelcome to our new students from abroad,and -hope that I will be seconded in this, inthe deed as w’ell as the word, by interestedAmerican students.

MM Jt . 9 .M MV MM M MV Mkby Neal JohnstonIn a very real sense the cur¬rent undergraduate programus not the “new College," butrather, the “newest College,"for experiments with the col¬lege curriculum are every bita& old as the University itself. TheCollege has never stopped chang¬ing. and few people ever expectit to.Structurally, the College of to¬day bears a strong resemblanceto the original college of WilliamKainey Harper’s day. DuringHarper’s tenure as the Univer¬sity’s founding president, the col¬lege was divided into two parts—the ‘academic’ college and the‘senior’ college, each covering twoyears of undergraduate work.These were also called the 'junior*and the ‘senior’ colleges. A stu¬dent’s first two years differedgreatly from his last two; injunior college the student washeld to a fixed curriculum, whilein senior college he could take vir¬tually any courses he wished.The College which now existshas a recorded history, and itsbirth can readily be dated: J931.But the theory behind the currentCollege goes much farther back.“The University”, according toChancellor Lawrence A. Kingston,lias always been an essentially re¬search oriented institution.” Neverwas it more so than in the firstthree decades of this century.The College was regarded asan annoying burden by the re¬search scientists ami scholars whoran the Divisions, and thus the grew dimmer during 1924, DeanWilkins proposed a series of“survey” courses for freshmen,designed to orient the studentin fields of knowledge, whichcrossed artificial boundary linescreated by the departmentalstructure. He quoted PresidentBurton as saying that a purposeof this College was “to help eachstudent to acquire such a knowl¬edge of the physical universe, ofthe history of the race, of thestructure of society, and of thenature of the individual, that . . .he may have a sense of wherehe is.”The first survey course atChicago was “The nature of theworld and of man.” This course,offered for the first time Inthe autumn, 1924, was a lecturecourse spread over two quartersIn which the University’s leadingscientists spoke on the natureand properties of matter, thecharacter of chemical properties,the origin of the earth, the evolu¬tion of the plant and animal king¬doms, and the evolution of man.The initial survey course pre¬dated the comprehensive programby many years.Indifference weatheredStill the College had to weatherthe studied indifference of thegraduate departments, most ofwhich wanted as little as possibleto do with undergraduates. Thedepartment of romance languageseven stopped teaching undergrad¬uate courses, turning that re¬sponsibility over to the laboratoryhigh school! William Rainey Harper, first president and creator of theUniversity, had many advanced ideas for his college whichwere never realized in his lifetime.The college of the twenties was confused, pointless, dis¬organized.University. During the ’20s, whenplans were being considered forabandoning the College com¬pletely, one group of College sup¬porters gave the following astheir reasons for maintaining anundergraduate institution: “TheCollege (I) provides the depart¬ments with an opportunity to se¬lect promising research students;(2) it brings revenue which helpspay for research and graduate in¬struction; and (3) it attracts con¬tributions from college alumni—since it is tills group, rather thangraduate-school alumni, whichhave greater wealth.”Commission createdSomething had to be done about♦he College, and in 1923 PresidentBurton (himself a solid researchman) went to the board of trus¬tees and asked for a commissionon the future development of theCollege. This committee wasformed, and in April, 1924, it re¬ported.It advocated the formation ofa six year grade school, a four-year high school, and a four-yearjunior college. Upon graduationfrom the junior college, a studentcould enter the senior college,where he would begin his special¬ization. Both of these ideas, the6-4-4 system and the early-entrantprogram, were ideas which Har¬per had advocated.The commission went on tosuggest that the junior collegebe physically separated from theexisting quadrangles, and that itaccommodate 1500 students. Theboard of trustees received thereport (an early rattling of the“Hutchins College”) but took noaction.Although prospects for a> thor¬ough revision of the curriculum One Ingenious advocate of theCollege tried to argue for itsvalidity on the department’s ownterms. The University, he pointedout, was committed to all formsof academic research; this includ¬ed research in the social sciences;and since education was a validbranch of the social sciences, re¬search in education (especially re¬search in college teaching) wasa worthwhile project. Few peoplewere impressed by this logic.Became more oppressiveYet the problem became moreand more oppressive; graduallythe faculty came to feel that sincethe College was here, and wasn'tgoing to go elsewhere, it mightbe just as well to make the bestof a bad situation. In 1928 MaxMason, Chicago’s fourth presi¬dent, established a new commit¬tee to investigate the College.This group was formed in Marchand had its report ready by May1, This report contained the es¬sential germ of the Hutchins Col¬lege, but its timing was poor; onApril 30, the day before the com¬mittee finished, President Masonresigned, and the study was tem¬porarily shelved.The report advocated abolitionof the credit system in favor ofcomprehensive examinations forgraduation requirements. Re¬quirements for graduation fromthe junior college were to be fivecomprehensive exams: one inEnglish composition and litera¬ture. one in a foreign language,one in natural science and math¬ematics, one in social sciences,and a fiftli in an elective field.For the senior college would berequired three comprehensive ex¬ams: one iq the student’* majorfield, and one In each of Ills two minor fields of specialization.Passing these eight examinationswould be all a student needed Inorder to graduate; there was notime limit on preparation; the stu¬dent could take the exams when¬ever he felt prepared. These ex¬ams tested the student’s generalknowledge of a field, not hismastery of any one course. Butagain, this report was not actedupon at this time.The following year a meetingtook place which revolutionizedundergraduate education in Amer¬ica, and most especially at Chi¬cago. A 1937 Fortune magazinearticle describes what happened:Deans met in Chicago“Late in 1928 the deans andprofessors from the US lawschools met in Chicago to makespeeches to each other about thesad, glad, mad, or bad state of.legal education in a democracy.Among them was Robert May¬nard Hutchins, then a handsome,athletic-looking twenty-eight,whose part in reanimating theonce somnolent Yale law schoolhad given him a reputation as theBoy Wonder of US education.“In the corridors and cloak- the University’s 28 divisions was the first placement test eon-rooms of the Stevens hotel the an autonomous unit; each re- structed was in English,brash tongue told the more re- ported its affairs and its budget In many ways the new Collegeactionary professors that the so- directly to the president.

Itwas no longer necessary for amember of the College facultyto be a member of a divisionalfaculty. Though sometimes chal¬lenged, this ruling has never beenchanged.Despite the early reversal,Hutchins and many of his facultycolleagues never abandoned theidea of a four-year college be¬ginning with the junior year ofhigh school. In his widely circu¬lated book The Higher Learningin America, published in 1936,Hutchins described such a col¬lege:“Let us assume that we havean intelligible organization of edu¬cation under which there is afour-year unit, beginning at aboutthe beginning of the junior year of ideas and common methods ofdealing with them. All the needsof general education in Americaseem to be satisfied by this cur¬riculum.”This statement by no meansrepresented the universal positionof Chicago's faculty;, some ofHutchins’ critics were most vig¬orous and most outspoken. Yetthe faculty became increasinglywilling to try the experiment, andin 1937 agreed to the four-yearcollege Hutchins had advocated.This four-year college, runningfrom grades 11 to 14, the twoyear college, both existed side byside, each had a different curric¬ulum, and neither awarded theBA—both still granted the AA.Required comps increasedThis parallel four-year collegecalled for the passing of 15 com¬prehensive examinations, ratherthan the seven prescribed forhigli-school graduates in the two-year program. These 15 coursesincluded a three-year course Inhumanities, encompassing mate¬rial from history, the fine artsand literature; a three-year coursein natural sciences which wouldbe offered in two variants: twoyears of biology and the existingintroductory general course inphysical science, or two years ofphysical science and one of biol¬ogy; a three-year course in socialsciences, a study of society in itspolitical, economic and social as¬pects; a three-year course in read¬ing, writing and criticism; a oneyear course in philosophy, thencalled “methods, values and con¬cepts," and finally two compre-hensives on divisional electives.Provision for mathematics andforeign language instruction wasleft as it stood in the two-yearprogram.World War II brought manychanges to the quadrangles, in¬Hutchins pictured with senior law students.in high school and ending atabout the end of the sophomoreyear in college. Let us assumethat we are going to try to teachin that unit everybody who canlearn from books. Let us assumefurther that the conclusion oftheir work in this unit will markthe end of formal instruction formost students. They will not goon to the university. Neverthelesswe must have a curriculum whichwill, in the main, do as well forthose who are going on as thosewho are not. What shall the cur¬riculum be?Study greatest books"A course -of study consistingof the greatest books of theWestern world and the arts ofreading, writing, thinking, andspeaking, together with mathe¬matics, the best exemplar of theprocess of human reason.

They will have learnedhow to think themselves. If wewi5h to lay a basis for advancedstudy, that basis is provided. Ifwe wish to secure true univer¬sities, we may look forward tothem, because students and pro¬fessors may acquire through thiscourse of study a common stock eluding Lawrence A. Kimpton, theman who was ultimately to suc¬ceed Hutchins, the US Army, andthe draft.The army took over a largenumber of University buildings,including the Reynolds club, IdaNoyes, both Bartlett and Sunnygymnasiam, Burton-Judson, mostof the fraternity houses—18 build¬ings in all.The army also took awayalmost as much as it brought:enrollment, especially male en¬rollment, was down to a handful.There were only 92 men in theclass entering in 1942.Every effort was made to pro¬vide maximum use of the Uni¬versity’s resources and maximumopportunity for students to getan education before entering mili¬tary service. Hutchins, in a speechto the faculty on January 7, 1942,stated that he believed the timeto be propitious to award thebachelor’s degree to mark thecompletion of the program ofgeneral education offered by theCollege.Hutchins won BAConvincing everyone but thephysical scientists, Hutchins wonthe BA for the College. The divi¬sion physical sciences, however,still controlled the BS. The oldAA degree was dropped.In this case the College goteven more than it asked for;where before it had no bachelor’sdegree to give, now it had twodifferent sorts: the Bachelor ofArts and the Bachelor of Philos¬ophy (PhB). The PhB program permitted the student who wantedsome undergraduate specializa¬tion to substitute two elective se¬quence courses for any two of thethree moat advanced examina¬tions in the AB program. Thusa student could substitute chem¬istry for humanities 3, Englishliterature for natural sciences 3,and so on. In all other respectsthe PhB program was the sameas the AB program.This new program of the ’40snecessitated the combination ofthe old two-year and four-yearcolleges. Where before there weretwo colleges, neither granting aBA, now there was one collegewith two bachelor’s degrees.Comprehensive examinationswere retained but they were madeto focus more directly on thekinds of competence aimed forin each specific general course,rather than on a particular bodyof subject matter.Degree requirements for thisnew AB were the same as therequirement of the four-year col¬lege, except that comprehensiveexaminations in two elective spe¬cialized fields were eliminated.At first, high-school graduateswere required to take only partof the four-year program, usuallyeight of the thirteen yearlongcourses and their respective com¬prehensive examinations: one onwriting, one on the integration ofknowledge, and two in each ofthe three general areas of thehumanities, social sciences andnatural sciences. By 1945, the useof placement tests had advancedto a point where each student’sindividual requirements could bespecified in terms of the compe¬tence he possessed or lacked atthe time he entered the College,so that some high-school gradu¬ates were required to do morethan the minimum amount ofivork.Fully aware of certain deficien¬cies in this program, the facultyunanimously voted in 1944 toaccept a recommendation fromDean Clarence Faust that a math¬ematics requirement be added tothe program. This brought thenumber of comprehensives up tofourteen,, the so-called 'magicnumber.’ A year later a one-yearforeign language requirementwas added. The total number ofavailable comprehensives re¬mained constant by reducing theEnglish requirements from threeyears to two years.Became more unpopularUnder fire even at the time ofits adoption, the semi-specialized-PhB undergraduate program be¬came even more unpopular amongthe college faculty as time wenton. The College faculty, confidentin the possession of its own au¬tonomy, and convinced of thevalidity of a fully general educa¬tion bachelors program, voted in1945 to abolish this compromiseprogram.Its vote was over-ridden by thecouncil of the university senate,which returned the motion to thecollege faculty asking for recon¬sideration. This action of thecouncil’s was over-ridden in turnby a veto from Hutchins, who hadjust had his title changed frompresident to chancellor. This is sofar the only veto any chancellorhas attempted. It didn’t prove to¬tally successful, for the council,at its next opportunity, outvotedthe Hutchins’ veto. The questionseemed headed straight for theboard of trustees. Chicago had along history of keeping its trus¬tees out of educational affairs,and reluctant to destroy this tra¬dition, the parties involved backeddown sufficiently to submit thePhB program to compromise andarbitration.The concern of the divisionswas that students entering theMasters program with the BAwould be completely unpreparedfor advanced or specialized work.The PhB program with its twoyear long courses of electives didprovide some introduction to themore specialized courses.The problem was solved whenthe College agreed to (1) providefor a general physics course asan alternative mode of prepara¬tion for the examination in thephysical sciences, plus specialsections of the biology course(natural science 2) ,for students intending to go in biology; (2) in¬troduce foreign language varientsfor the third year humanitiescourse, especially French andGerman varients; (3) study thepossibility of including a generalhistory course among the four¬teen comprehensives; and (4) pro¬vide for joint residency in boththe college and division while ful¬filling college requirements. Thisbeing agreeable to all, the PhBprogram died.The general history course wasadded in 1947, and titled Historyof Western Civilization. The num¬ber of comps remained fourteenby the deletion of one of the tworemaining years of the Englishsequence. This completed the de¬velopment of the fourteen compsystem, and no further changesin courses were introduced untilthis year. One course did changeits name: Methods, Values andConcepts became Observation, In¬terpretation and Integration ofKnowledge (Oil), and then Or¬ganization, Methods and Princi¬ples of Knowledge (OMP).Hutchins resignsIn December of 1950 the calmwhich had surrounded the Collegeduring the previous five yearswas abruptly shattered. RobertM. Hutchins resigned. Thoughrumors that Hutchins would re¬sign had been running rampantthrough the campus during everyyear of his twenty year term, theactual announcement that he wasaccepting an administrative posi¬tion with the Ford Foundationboard caught the campus off¬guard.In his farewell speech to stu¬dents on February 2, 1951, Hutch¬ins explained the educationalphilosophy which he had utilizedin his remaking of the Univer¬sity’s College. x“We have been struggling hereto create a model university. Ifa model university is needed, itmust be because the educationalsystem and the public attitudetoward it need in some degree tobe changed. The students in sucha university come out of the edu¬cational system and the publicattitudes that exists.“The student in the College ofthe University of Chicago comesfrom the American high school,and may go into an Americangraduate or professional school.The University of Chicago is try¬ing to change the American highschool and the American graduateand professional school. So far ithas been wholly successful onlyin changing its own. The resultis that Chicago students may en¬counter difficulties that thbse ofother institutions seldom hear of.“A model university in Americaat this time is necessarily at warwith the public, for the publichas little or no idea what a uni¬versity is or what it is for. Idon’t need to tell you what thepublic thinks about universities.You know as well as I, and youknow that the public is wrong.“I still think, as I have thoughtfor many years, that the mottoof the University should be thatline from Walt Whitman, ‘Soli¬tary, singing in the West I strikeup for a new world’.”Kimpton appointed chancellorAfter several months of com¬bined searching, the faculty and trustees finally found a newchancellor right In their midst—Lawrence A. Kimpton. Except fora three year period as Dean ofstudents at Strnford, Kimptonhad been with the university since1942, serving as one of Hutchins’own bright young men, as sec¬retary of the faculties, Dgan ofStudents, vice president in chargeof development, and during thewar, director of the famed metal¬lurgy project. On October 18,1951,the forty year old philosopherwas formally inaugurated into thehighest administrative office ofthe university.Three grave problems, none ofwhich were basically 'academic,confronted the new chancellor:the sorry shape of university fi¬nances, the rapidly growing slumareas surrounding the campus,and the abruptly declining under¬graduate enrollment. These wereproblems with which Kimpton’spredecessor had little luck in try¬ing to solve, and generally ig¬nored.Hutchins had bemoaned his in¬ability to raise money for theuniversity on several occasions.In 1941 he complained, “Mr. Har¬per, the great first president ofthe university, had the Midastouch: everybody he touchedturned to gold. I have the Medusaglance: everybody I look at turnsto stone. The number of ourfellow-citizens who have giventheir entire fortunes to goodcauses just before I call uponthem would amaze you. You haveno idea of the charitable instinctsof our neighbors and how uncon¬trollable they are. Unfortunatelythese instincts have just been ex¬ercised to the full immediatelybefore my arrival. It Is as thoughthe wealthy men of Chicagolooked out the window and said,‘Here comes Robert MedusaHutchins. I must give all mymoney to the Salvation army be¬fore he gets here.’ I have at leastthe satisfaction of feeling that Ihave assisted many worthy proj¬ects.”Recognizes same problemKimpton recognized the sameproblem in a speech he deliveredin 1952 to Student Government:“One of the urgent problems ofprivate education today is money.The better the institution thebroker it is, and as a result theUniversity of Chicago is mag¬nificently hard up.“I hope we always are, becausethis means that we are spendingall the money we can get ourhands on and then- some to keepour research and teaching pro¬gram at the forefront among edu¬cational institutions of the world.On the other hand it is a problemwhich we have to solve.“One possibility is to boosttuition. I am very loath to do thisbeca'use it raises one more eco¬nomic barrier to the serious stu¬dent who deserves an educationat UC. A second alternative is toreduce our expenditure, and weare doing this in every way pos¬sible. . . A third alternative . . .is to raise more money.”That is exactly what Kimptonwent out and did. Today Chicagohas the fourth largest endowmentfund of any school in the country,but in 1952 we were spendingFootball — now but a memory.CHICAGO'll'’- 4 ■■■*!'

Behind the highly experi¬mental academic portion of theUniversity was a just as highlyconservative business office, onewhich had tried to solve the slumproblem through restrictive cov¬enants and discriminatory hous¬ing. As this system failed thebuildings of 55th Street and ahost of other neighborhood struc-t ures which were built before theturn of the century became moreand more run-down. Hyde Parkexhibited an ever-growing crimerate.With an almost complete re¬versal of policy, the Universityunder Kimpton fully committeditself to the process of urban re¬newal: slum clearance and recon¬struction. The University was in¬strumental in the formation of dents were spending six yearsgetting a masters degree, whilemost schools only required fiveyears. The armed forces refusedto recognize the BA as a validdegree.Reasons explainedIn explaining the reasoning be¬hind the committee's proposal,Filbey stated that action wastaken “not because the Collegehas not proved popular, or be¬cause the College program is un¬desirable; the University simplycannot finance the program onthe number of students it attracts.The problem of recruiting stu¬dents from the local high schoolsIs very difficult . . . The Univer¬sity needs students. It has beensuggested that we apply to (hefoundations, and this has beendone; and while there has beena generous response the Univer¬sity still cannot finance a studentpopulation of adequate propor¬tions on the fees taken in. AndStudents protest for the return of the Hutchins BA alterthe establishment of the joint degree.the South East Chicago Commis¬sion, to cope with the growingcrime problem.Committee formedA special committee was formedto study the bachelor’s degree,with a view towards Its possiblereorganization. Ktuery Filbey,chairmen of the group, reportedthe findings to tlte council of thesenate In April of 1953. The com¬mittee’s thesis was that the BAshould no longer be completelyin the hands of the College, thatan undergraduate’s fourth yearshould be spent in specializedwork, and that the degree shouldl»e a joint one, awarded by theCollege and the division.The College’s program had beendeveloped in the expectation thatmost of its students would even¬tually enter before graduationfrom high school. Although therehad been a consistent increase inthe number of early entrants forseveral years, this growth did notmake up for the decrease in thenumber of high-sehool graduates.The highest proportion of earlyentrants in any class was 30%.Moreover, the early entrant pro¬gram had antagonized many highschool principals. They felt thatUC was telling them that theirschools were useless (and theUniversity was) and that Chicagowas stealing their best minds(and again, Chicago was).It had been expected that manystudents would conclude their for¬mal education upon receiving theAB, but this was not the case.Over 80% of the students whowere graduates from the collegewent on for advanced degrees.Those who transferred to otherschools found that they might beaccepted for graduate study incertain disciplines but that theydid not have the requisite prep¬aration for advanced study inothers, notably in the sciences.The BA was generally treatedas a junior college degree andmost students had to spend threeyears getting a masters degree;this was true even In our own di¬visions. While high school seniorswere expected to finish the pro¬gram in only two years, surpris¬ingly few did, and so most stu¬ so it appears that if we wantadequate support, we must meetthe high school student at grad¬uation, and adjust the eleventhgrade program ... By adding ayear to the present college pro¬gram, we can improve that pro¬gram also.”Kimpton commented favorablyon the report. “Chicago someyears ago decided somethingought to be done about generaleducation. In order to do it, itorganized a separate faculty todevise and teach a program ofgeneral education. As a graduateof this faculty’s autonomy, it wasgiven the power to grant the ABdegree. It has done a magnificentjob of devising a curriculum ofgeneral education; that work isaccomplished. . . Recognizing thatthe College has attained its majorgoal, this report recommends thatwe now take the next forwardstep and integrate general educa¬tion and specialized training, oneof the most important problemsof American education. To mymind tills places the Committeereport In its historical perspectiveand justifies the move being pro¬posed.”And so in 1953 a new degreewas established with new require¬ments. The College then had thesole authority to award the de¬gree to students who completedeither its program in tutorialstudies or one of the ‘professionaloption’ programs in law or busi¬ness.The college and the division ofthe humanities or the division ofsocial sciences jointly awardedthe BA to students who combineda specified program of general(college) studies and specializeddepartmental courses. A similararrangement existed between thecollege and the divisions of physi¬cal and biological sciences for theawarding of the bachelor of sci¬ence degree.Reaction among students to thechanges was rather violent. Dem¬onstrations were held in front ofthe administration building andon the Chancellor’s front lawn.Banners were paraded, petitionspassed, signs bearing legendslike: “Give us back our college,”“We want an education,” and “Reconsider!” appeared all overcampus. A large student ‘strike’was held and classes were boy¬cotted. But gradually, one by one,students crept back into the classrooms to prepare for the comingcomprehensive examinations. Forthe compreliensives were retained,as were the placement test pro¬gram, the early entrant programand the basic ‘general education’core curriculum, the four pointswhich Kimpton announced hewanted to retain under any cir¬cumstances.Compreliensives reducedEvery one of the fourteen com-prehensives was still offered, butall students were no longer re¬quired to take all fourteen. Whenthe smoke cleared it was seenthat students in a joint degreeprogram with the divisions ofphysical science, biological scienceand humanities were now usuallyheld to only eight comprehensiveexams. Some students were onlyrequired to take six of the year¬long general education courses.Several imperfections werefound in this new program. Moststudents had to have two advis¬ors, one in the college and one inhis division, which produced greatconfusion when the two advisorsadvised the student in diametri¬cally opposed ways.The late William Bradburycomplained that the faculty or¬ganization which existed thenhindered rather than helped thefurther development of liberalundergraduate education. No per¬son or group was then responsiblefor such generic educational prob¬lems as the relation of generaland specialized students, specialprograms for superior students,unifying baccalaureate examina¬tions, the development of writingability beyond that achieved inthe required course in composi¬tion, and the rules for awardingdegrees and honors.Robert Streeter, former dean ofthe College, pointed out that“Since 1953 the average UC stu¬dent has taken only 8.5 rompre-hensives, while placing out of onlyone and a half. The average stu¬dent has four courses for whichhe has neither placement norcomprehensive credit. It’s verydifficult to maintain a balancedprogram with these conditions.”The four courses the averagestudent wouldn’t take usuallyturned out to be the so-called‘terminal courses’ such as human¬ities 3 and social sciences 3, theweightier, meatier, most impor-ant part of the College curricu¬lum.ECUE organizedSo, in April of 1957, the councilof the university senate author¬ized creation of the executivecommittee on undergraduate edu¬cation. This body was to exercise“general supervision of all under¬graduate programs, with respectto the detailed elaboration of pol¬icy.” The council delegated to itauthority “.. . to initiate programadjustments, establish schedulesfor program revisions, approvenew programs, resolve conflicts,in general act upon problems ofundergraduate education.”Meeting regularly for a fullyear, the committee first re¬viewed the joint-degree under¬graduate program. Their findingsled them to believe that ", . . themany points of difficulty are notmere unrelated particulars.Rather, most of them stem froma few general curricular prob¬lems, the resolution of which ishindered by present faculty or¬ganization.”The ECUE report boiled down totwo major changes in the struc¬ture and nature of the college.The BA degree was given backto the College; joint degree pro¬grams were no longer availablefor entering students. To do thisthe college faculty needed to beexpanded. From 1942 to 1959 onlyfourteen courses were offered inthe College: the fourteen compre¬hensives. Now the College wanteditself to provide the undergradu¬ate specialization courses, knownas divisionats. To do this it neededmore specialists on its faculty,and many members of other divi¬sional facilities were asked to join the College. The College faculty rdoubled. It now has sole responsi¬bility for its BA.The second major point of thereport concerned the curriculum. )‘The pattern of study leading to |||the degree of bachelor of artsshould consist of two years ofwork in general education, oneyear of work in a single area ofconcentration and one year offree and guided electives.” >The new bachelor of science de¬gree called for two years of gen¬eral education and two years ofspecialization; no room could be #found in this program for freeelectives.Prior to this students had beentaking two years of liberal artscourses from a program designedto last three and one-half years,and as a result whole areas wereskipped. The new program wouldbe expressly designed to last twoyears, and thus be complete initself. The free elective systemwould give the student the oppor¬tunity of intellectual browsing,and the specialization year wouldprovide a scholarly introductionto his own special field.In many respects this is a re¬turn to the old Hutchins’ pro¬grams of the 30’s and 40’s. Whileit never worked out to be such,the undergraduate program wasalways intended to be a two yearprogram leading to a three yearmasters. Now we have a fouryear bachelor’s degree leading toa one year masters. The natureand proportion of the coursestaken within this degree remainsessentially the same.Kimpton speaksChancellor Kimpton spoke onall this in his last “State of theUniversity” address.“During our first forty years,we managed somehow, relying ona variety of loose though interest¬ing arrangements, but in 1931 wemoved decisively toward the crea¬tion of a separate undergraduateentity, complete with its ownteaching faculty and general cur¬riculum.“By divorcing undergraduateeducation from the university,however, this move created moreproblems than it solved. The coun¬cil action of 1953 did have the vir¬tue of reassociating the two, butupon an arm’s-length, hostile, ne¬gotiating basis. . .It was out ofthe general dissatisfaction withthis loose juxtaposition of differ¬ent kinds of courses, standards,and even objectives that the coun¬cil called for formation of theECUE committee.”The recommendation of thiscommittee, Kimpton pointed out,“was a good one, for the excellentreason that it really pleased no¬body, and none of the parties atissue won a battle. . .The old Col¬lege is requested to reduce itsthree-year program to two years,and the departments are asked toget their offerings into conform¬ity, including the establishment ofa suitable pool of electives.“There is to be a single aca¬demic dean of this new unit toprevent confusion among the fac¬ulty, a single undergraduate deanof students to reduce confusionamong the students, and it is tobe called the College, which willcertainly confuse everyone.”There seems little doubt thatthe College will continue chang- The early entrant programis another of the long-timeinstitutions established byHutchins which, when thisphoto was taken, was widelypublicized by the University.ing, It never has stopped expand¬ing and contracting, improving,rejecting and searching for newand better ways of teaching moreeffectively designed courses andprograms. Many small changeshave gone into effect in the pasttwo years. Non-western historycourses have been added to thecollege program; music and artvariants of the third year human¬ities sequence are now fully es¬tablished. Consideration and ex¬perimentation have been done oncounting quarterly grades asgrades of record.Comprehensives might be elim¬inated and replaced by area exam¬inations (as existed in the thir¬ties) or then comprehensivesmight simply just be eliminated.The early entrant programseems to be withering to death.OMP, the philosophy course, hasbeen eliminated from the collegerequirements. And though themere thought of compulsory classattendance is vigorously deniedby all concerned, even that Ar-meggeddon may be reached.The composition of the studentbody Is changing, and as itchanges the College, of force, willsubtly change with it. All this isto be expected, yet some precioussort of poised balance seems tohave been attained.“We have balanced the claimsof specialized training againstthose of general education,” ex¬plains the hew Dean of the col¬lege, Alan Simpson. “We havetried to get the research scholarto think as hard about the prob¬lems of the young student asabout those of ids peers, and weare offering every facility to theteacher to fertilize his teachingby access to research. We Itavecorrected some of the biaseswhich made our college a delightto certain types of minds and adelirium to others.“The idea is not to lower ourstandards but to attract a greatervariety of students who are quali¬fied to meet them.“No admirer of our intellectualtraditions need fear that it isgoing to be weakened by oursearch in the College for abroader, better-balanced, morehuman success.”And so we are entering a newera: from the “old College” to the“new College” to the era of the“newest College.”Many problems laced the new chancellor upon his incep¬tion.October 2, 1959 • CHICAGO MAROON • 19^SSIMSMThe pictures of Maroon's logos from 1892 to the present areshown below.UC's Maroon had five "volume 1, number 1" issues. It wasfounded as the University News, first published in a magazineformat on October 1, 1892. The first edition to use a news¬paper format was another Vol. 1, No. 1, published shortlyafter the University of Chicago opened its doors; October 17,1892.On May 7, 1900, the Daily Maroon was founded with its ownVol. 1, No. 1. Rumor has it that the paper went bankruptshortly thereafter (it owed $25 to the University Press, thenthe printers of the paper) and .William Rainey Harper, firstpresident of the University "bailed them out."On October 1, 1902, the Daily Maroon began publishingagain and came out with the fourth Vol. 1, No. 1. When thename of the paper was changed, shortly before World War IIfrom Daily Maroon to Chicago Maroon (the paper then becamea weekly) the editor's decided to create the final Vol. 1, No. 1.The present staff dates its volumes from the October 17, 1892edition. Thus 1959-60 is our 68th year of publication.When first founded the Maroon price was three cents percopy. Since then, the price has varied from two cents to fivecents. At the suggestion of Robert M. Strozier, former dean ofstudents, in the late 1940's the paper was distributed withoutcharge.Past editors of the Maroon have included,. Harold Ickes,US secretary of the Interior and late member of Franklin DelanoRoosevelt's cabinet; Clifton Utley, news commentator andanalyst; William V. Morgenstern, present secretary of the Uni¬versity, William Ned Rosenheim, professor of history in theCollege. Its contributors included famed author John Gunther,Frederick Kuh, political writer and analyst; Meyer Levin, authorof "Compulsion"; James Michner, author of "Tales of theSouth Pacific."Playe explains UC'sloans, scholarships"Some forty per cent of theentering students have schol¬arships this year,” announcedGeorge Playe, dean of under¬graduate students and formerhead of the Scholarship office.“We had many more applicationsthan we can accommodate, wewould like to have awarded muchmore money than we had.”Scholarships are awarded al¬most totally on the basis ofgrades and need, Playe explained.Applicants are arranged in theorder of the grade averages, or,in the case of entering students,CEEB tests.“We then go right down thislist,” Playe explained, “grantingawards on the basis of need. Intight cases student activities rec¬ords, home conditions, drive —these are taken into account.”But generally, Playe acknowl¬edged, the grade average is allthat matters.The University does have fundsfor helping students who do notwin scholarships, added G. R.Hopwood, new director of finan¬cial aid. The University has largeloan funds available to students.“All loan applications for theAutumn quarter must be sub¬mitted to the office of financialaid on or before November 6,”Hopwood cautioned. “No applica¬tions for loans’to pay tuition orhousing can be accepted after thatdate under any circumstances.”Interest rates on Universityloans vary from zero to four percent. In no case does interest be¬gin until after the borrower hasleft school.

The avant garde wouldtruly be dead if the paperbackbook industry had really sup¬planted its function”.The Chicago Review, through¬out its publishing history, hasatti¬tude towards schools of thoughtand writing. It has been and isfree from any formulated policywhich would exclude good writ¬ing for reasons of literary ofpolitical bias. The taste of thestudent editors has been the de¬ciding factor in what lxas beenpublished. Because these editorshave treated responsibly the free¬dom given them by the Universityadministration, the quality of thematerial published in the Reviewhas been consistently high.The Chicago Review is pub¬lished quarterly, containing mate¬rial by authors from all over theworld as well as by members ofthe University community. Fre¬quently it publishes an issue de¬voted to a single subject — suchas the Summer 1958, issue, whichwas concerned with Zen Bud¬dhism. This issue featured suchwell-known authorities on Zen asD. T. Suzuki and Alan Watts, aswell as fiction by Samual Beckett,book reviews, and art work. TheZen issue has been widely recog¬nized as an achievement, and hasbeen sought by colleges and uni¬versities in connection with couxsework.Another special issue which hasattracted attention is the Summer1959 issue, devoted to Existential¬ism and Literature. One of thelargest issues published, it runs toover 200 pages, and contains ar¬ticles by such authorities as PaulWienpahl, Hans Meyerhoff, Mar¬jorie Grene, and Walter Kauf-mann. This issue is still available,and will be on sale in the Univer¬sity Bookstore and elsewhere fora few more weeks only.No less than for its special is¬sues, the Review is noted for itsdiscoveries. These include WalterToman, who for long found noother American publisher, andwhoso stories are about to bepublished by Bobbs-Merrill; PhilipRoth, also to publish a book ofstories; and George Starbuek.Among well-known writers,whose work has been publishedin the Review along with that ofnew writers, are David Riesman,Henry Miller, and Isaac Rose fold.New poetry has appeared alongwith that of Conrad Aiken, E. E.Cummings, Reuel Denny, andKarl Shapiro. Drama, satire, andtranslations of fiction, poetry, andessays, and artwork are, also ac¬cepted.The Review sponsors readingsand lectures on the Universitycampus throughout the academicyear. In the recent past suchnotable personalities as RobertFrost, Edith Sitwell, E. E. Cum¬mings, Truman Capote, FrankLloyd Wright, and Stephen Spen¬der have appeared for the benefitof the Review. Such readings pro¬vide part of the support neededfor maintaining the Review.Other means are: by subscrip¬tions ($3.50 one year, $6.50 twoyears), and newsstand sales ($1.00per copy); by advertising; and bya subsidy from the Division ofHumanities.On October 16th the Autumn1959 issue of the Chicago Reviewwill appear on the newsstandsand will be sold at the ReynoldsClub on campus. This issue fea¬tures two outstanding, newly dis¬covered (and previously unpub¬lished) talents; John Schullz andPaul Herr. Herr’s novelette ispart of a larger work-in-progress,and is remarkable for its insightinto a mind that has been twistedby the violence of a concentrationcamp and must come to termswith humanity once more.

From 1955 through 1958 groups of such students with unsatisfactory ture interests of the faculty willaverages represented from 22 to 24% per cent of those taking three or more comps.Knox Hill, the College examiner stated that he felt that this decrease in poor comp aver¬ages was largely attributable to the operation of the single F rule this year.

If he failsthe first quarter of the course he is not permittedto continue without making up the work satis¬factorily, either by retaking the quarter failed,or by passing a special examination.This rule replaced a double F rule, under whichno student who had failed both quarters of acourse was permitted to take the comprehensivewithout making up the work involved. Under thesingle F rule the student with an average of Cor better in the previous year may take an "R”,signifying registration for the quarter with noindication of grade. In special cases, particularlyserious illness, students with a grade of less thanC are permitted to take an R for the quarter.Many students may use the R to avoid the dis¬qualifying F. At the same time the R permitsthe student to distribute his time 'more inde¬pendently, if, for example, he prefers to ignorea course for a quarter and do the work moreadequately later.The primary reason, according to Hill, forthe institution of first the double F and then thesingle F regulation was that many members ofthe faculty felt many students were not studyingthroughout the year and consequently were notprepared for the comp. The rules both forcedmany students to study more steadily, and droppedfrom the course students who would have con¬tinued unprepared throughout the year, wastingboth their own time and those of their classmates.In the autumn quarter of 1958 205 F’s weregiven to 177 students, a decrease of 75% from the 800 F’s given in fall quarter of 1957. In the winterquarter last year the F’s totalled about 140 incomparison with the almost 800 given in the cor¬responding quarter the year before. Althoughsome failing students were permitted to continuein the second quarter of a course last year, onlyfour of them failed a second time.The decrease of failures under the single F planwas caused partly by the number of R’s awarded.Over 250 R’s were given fall quarter and 455 R’swere given in the winter. Moreover, 41 studentsreceived incompletes in the fall and 30 in the win¬ter quarter.Despite this masking of the immediate resultsof the single F plan, the decrease in the per¬centage of unsatisfactory averages among thosestudents studying primarily in the College demon¬strates the plan’s partial effectiveness statedHill. Many students were prevented from takingexams for which they would have been unpre¬pared, and the number of failures was diminished,apparently because of the single F stimulus.Hill said that there were several problems con¬nected with the operation of the plan. “Many dent publicationsWe’re glad to be of use to thebe.The subject coverage of the spe¬cial collections tends to be bothintensive and extensive. “We haveone of the most important collec¬tions of Chaucerian materials inthe world, the famous William E.Barton Collection of Lincolniana,our extensive records of theBacon family, and our HistoricalCollection of Books for Children.We also have some 33,000 volumesin the rare books collection, andover a million and a half indi¬vidual pieces are in the manu¬script collection.”The University Archives, also aspecial collection within the de¬partment, preserves the signifi¬cant records of the University,commencing with the records of“the old University of Chicago,”predecessor of the current insti¬tution. In addition to non-currentfaculty papers, departmentalrecords, and various administra¬tive records, the archives includecomplete runs of Cap and Gown,Maroon, Pjioenix, and other stu-instructors feel that if the number of F’s de¬creases noticeably, their standards have fallen. Asa result of this feeling the grading standards areoften raised unreasonably.”Another problem arose from the differing atti¬tudes of various College staffs toward the applica¬tion of the rule. Many instructors were reluctantto give F’s which would prevent the student fromcontinuing in the course. Such prevention mightforce the student to carry a later overload or tospend more than the normal amount of time com¬pleting his degree.Because the single F rule has been operativefor only one year, its effectiveness cannot becompletely estimated at this time.

"In short, wewant more students to fill allpositions on the WUCB staff."Vermazen put special emphasison WUCB’s need for audio con¬trol operators, usually referred to as broadcast “engineers." “Theengineer is one of the most im¬portant people involved in anyradio broadcast," he noted. “Heor she operates the record turn¬tables, tape recorders, and con¬trols the volume and quality ofthe voices and music being sentout over the air."

The large majority of residents of Burton-Judson were apple¬cheeked youngsters, and many of them had some kind of electronics experience, so they de¬cided to set up a small radio station in the basement of B-J. There are certain kinds of A-Mstations which do not come under the jurisdiction of the FCC, which is stringent in its re¬quirements as far as technical considerations go.

Vermazen said thatmore announcers than ever beforewill be needed on WUCB thisyear, because of an increase inthe number of hours of weeklybroadcasting by the student radiostation.The WUCB Personnel Directorbrought up the topic of WUCB’sproduction staff. “Because of thepossibility that WUCB might goFM sometime this year, and alsobecause of our expansion inbroadcast hours, including ournew morning show, John Kim,our new Program Director, reallyhas a chore facing him. He needsstudents who are interested in producing recorded music pro¬grams especially — programs ofclassical music, folk music, Jazz,everything."

A\■'\ATheatreThe Stm Cosmongony, astudent-written farce pro¬duced on Academic Day, 1895,was the first presentation ofthe original University of Chi¬cago Dramatic Club. The clubyuc exclusive — elective memberdhip restricted to 15 men and 15women. A tradition oi large pro¬ductions on Junior day to aca¬demic socialites in frilly whitewas begun.The first Dramatic Club wassocial as well as theatrical. Regu¬lar teas were arranged and theclub arranged an annual dinner,given in such places as the Strat¬ford Hotel.Central characters fromDramatic Club's presenta¬tion of East Lynn, an almostannual production years ago.Soon competition arose. In 1901The Opera Comique was founded.Miss Flim Flam was its first pro¬duction. The Dramatic club real¬ized slowly that it could functionmore effectively and more perma¬nently if it concentrated on morewell-known, more serious drama.Other clubs arose. The GreenHall Dramatic club and the Fos¬ter Hall Dramatic club, organiza¬tions dedicated to the productionof plays written by members oftheir dormitories grew yp—andquickly died. The Green Hall clubmade a last concerted effort tosurvive with its production ofThe Tempest in 1904, arranged ofcourse by a dorm member, butall girl plays were a dying cause.The dorms subsided to the pres¬entation of skits on skit nightsand dramatic eruditions on theirown problems to each other.The Dramatic club acquired aprofessional coach, A. StanleyDavies in 1901. A. Stanley Daviesdied in 1902, but the idea lived on.Coaches came and left in rapid•uccession. The club expanded Itsprogram and produced three ma¬jor and several minor plays ayear. Campus interest grew. In1905 40 candidates tried for sixopen places in the club.Settlement league gives playThe University of Chicago Set¬tlement league, founded in 1894as an all-university organizationpresented a grand and astoundingversion of Ben Jonson’s The Casela Altered in 1903, under the direc¬tion of the Public Speaking de¬partment, with the cooperation ofthe Dramatic Club. A New Yorkdirector, B. Short, was brought in,and an enormous cast composedof anything from tavern maids toImpressive lords was formed. Theproduction had come far from theSettlement league’s first faculty—written performance of The De¬ceitful Dean, later revived in 1905.Two new theatre groups wereformed in 1909—another all girlgroup, The Green Room, and Sockand Buskin, a club limited to thewomen of the Philosophy college.The second decade of the cen¬tury saw parading suffragetteshi great profusion, and TJC the¬atre kept pace. In 1911 the EqualSuffrage League presented “How the start was slight enoughthe Vote Was Won,” a spectacularfarce set in suffragette England,and given in Mandel Hall. In thefollowing year Blackfriar’s gavea parody of How the Vote wasin Mandel Hall.Special clubs with special mem¬bers played plays in their specialfields. The Undergraduate Clas¬sics club, founded in 1912 was act¬ing Greek and Latin plays /by1920. The French club—now LeCercle Francais—gave annualFrench plays, ranging from low,low farce, to high, high contem¬porary drama. The German Clubtoo presented plays in its lan¬guage.The Masquers, composed ofunderclass women, and old mem¬ber upperclass women, was or¬ganized. In 1916, to celebrate theShakespeare Tercentennial, amassive production featuring sev¬eral plays acted by the variousclubs was presented. No plays byShakespeare were included. Thegreat man deserved to be let restwhile honored, evidently.A change was coming over theDramatic club. Most in evidencewas the fact that it was havinggreat financial trouble. The mem¬bership was expanded,- first toInclude “associate members” andfinally to a standing list of 60with the still undefined associates.The club announced that itwould produce a large popularplay in the winter quarter to per¬mit the production of more eso¬teric scripts in the spring and fall.True theatre evidently wasn’tprofitable. But experimentationwas still on the downgrade, andthose members who wished to usethe club either for pre-Broadwaystar vehicle experience, or forcontroversial drama, were in theminority.In 1921 the club made the fol¬lowing statement, which will beengraved or branded according toyour own inclination on the quiv¬ering dossiers of actors forever.“This has been the aim of theadministration for the last fewyears—a club composed, not of afew queer, tempermental peoplewith Tolstoi and Ibsen close totheir hearts, but an organizationrepresentative of the college andinterested in producing plays thatcollege people can enjoy withouttoo much expenditure of graymatter. ... It is simply a recog¬nition of the fact that drama is athing of the emotion and not ofthe intellect. . . . There is muchto be said for the theatre-goerwho checks his brains at the doorwith his over-coat.”Dramatic Club's troublescontinueSterling as this statement mayseem, the provocation seems pri¬marily financial. The club tried topresent plays which had not re¬cently been seen in Chicago, andcontinued to give small more ex¬perimental productions for itself.But the club was still in a pe¬riod of upheaval. Despite its pol¬icy of popular play producing, itstreasury in the fall of 1922 con¬tained only $1.53. Finally in 1923the club was reformed into the%UC Dramatic association (DA),with an inner controlling group,known as the Gargoyles. Manymembers left in protest, and sev¬ eral were asked to resign anony¬mously by the University becausetheir grades were poor.The storm continued in 1924.The association fought the admin¬istration for a professional coach.Subsidiary members known asdramats, were officially recog¬nized, although the classificationsoon disappeared.In the same year the TowerPlayers, a men’s dramatic asso¬ciation was formed. It failed. In1925 the Tower Players consoli¬dated with the Gargoyles in theDA. The two groups presentedsome plays in conjunction, someseparately, but they shared aunited, if infinitesimal treasury.In 1925 Portfolio, a group origi¬nally connected with the Women’sAthletic association, dedicated tothe production of a revue a year,was dissolved. In 1926 The Mirrorwas founded, to take Portfolio’splace. It later joined DA.In 1929 the Dramatic Associa¬tion found a new way to makemoney and founded a season pa¬tron system, including 100 people.The list later expanded to include2—300.With the advent of Hutchinsand intellectuality DA began mov¬ing slowly toward more experi¬mental theatre. Playfest, an an¬nual production of one-act playswas inaugurated. Occasionally ex¬perimentation was carried togreat lengths, as when FrankO’Hara, the theatre’s director,produced Poor Ole Boy with acast of tech men and a stage crewof future Broadway stars.New beginning for DAA series of fall world premiereswas begun in 1932 with To,Meetthe Prince. That year Playfest in¬cluded three short plays byThornton Wilder, among themThe Long Christmas Dinner. an experimental theatre, whose and since 1954 has also had amembers eventually separated to practice' of sponsoring more out-form Playwrites Studio. side events than before.

The Gar¬goyles included DA members whohad acted in some production, theTower Players, men involved inproduction. The Mirror werethose women DA members activein the annual revue. Tryouts forthe associations’ plays were open.Anyone participating in a playwas invited to join.But in 1937 the conflict betweenexperimerrtalism and popularmoney-making, less-polished playsbegan again. O’Hara quit, statingthat he wished no part of "exper¬imental theatre interesting only tostage aspirants.” He wanted "the¬atre for everybody.”In 1939 DA surrendered, "morechastened and democratized.” Anew segment of "the associationformed itself into the ApprenticePlayers, involved in laboratorywork for acting classes.Then the war began. And withthe end of the war, UC’s theatrebroke into many little organiza¬tions, each fighting for its ownparticular segment of proper the¬atre.From this amalgamation aroseUniversity Theatre, the presentorganization, and Tonight at 8:30, largely dependent on its director.George Blair ran the theatre from1948-53. Its structure was muchthe same as that of the presentgroup—an organization intendedto produce plays, run by a benev¬olent dictator with a board of stu¬dents whose prime functionsrange from the production of ex¬perimental series to calling theannual meeting to elect the newboard. (The latter has been themost consistent of the board’spowers.)In 1953-4 the director of thetheatre was Otis Imboden, whoran the group with little assist¬ance. According to Carol Horning,who worked with Otis, the theatrewas much more groupy then thannow. There was no even semi¬permanent staff — the membersmimeographed scripts, costumedshows, painted flats, and acted enmasse.And in 1954 Marvin Phillips,the present director of UT, cameinto office. "Like Blair I saw ain Hyde Park for a com¬munity theatre and have tried tofill part of this need through Uni¬versity Theatre,” says Phillips.The number of productions hasenlarged. And in his firstyear Phillips began Court theatre.Court TheatreCourt theatre is distinct fromUniversity theatre in that tryoutsare open to anyone in Chicago.Performances are given in three-quarter round — in Hutchinsoncourt in decent wTeather, in Man-del Hall when it rains.Much has happened to Courttheatre as well as to UT itself,since Phillips came. The Tonightat 8:30 series, originally a sepa-organization producing origi¬nals by student authors has be¬come an annual UT productionfeaturing a number of student-directed, often original one-actplays and scenes from largerworks. The Court, although it re¬tains its old tomato can light cov¬ers has changed from its first no¬tion of production of plays by oneclassic playwright per season tothe presentation of more variedseries.In Phillips’ first year a new UTtradition was started. The techmen created two Elmers—metalfigures on wooden blocks. Elmershave been awarded to the bestactor in each full-scale play aswell as to the person who has con¬tributed most to the technical endof the production.UT brings in guest directors, tions—Oedipus Rex, MacBeth, andSean O’Casey’s Juno and the Pea¬cock, the Studebaker’s Waitingfor Godot, readings by Ken Nor-dine and the Norwegian actressTore Selgcke, and the off-Broad-way productions of Endgame andThe Irish Players’ Playboy of theWestern World.According to Phillips the pres¬ent theatre set-up is in manyways more valuable than ever be¬fore. The group has three verydifferent stage areas — MandelHall, the court, and the tiny Rey¬nold’s club theatre, advantageousbecause of its size and consequentclose atmosphere as well as be¬cause a longer run is possible ina less well used theatre.IUT experimental and inventiveUT has tried bringing bleachersinto the Reynolds club for in theround performances, formed itsown staff and sound system, builtits own sets, made its own cos¬tumes and lived on a relative shoestring for many years. It is oneof the few student organizationswithout a subsidy. Phillips says,"To me any sort of subsidy im¬plies a certain amount of con¬trol. Being completely on our ownleaves us free to do what wewant, less hampered by red tape,and forces us to be more ingenui-tive.”This year UT will -present threelarge original productions. "Thereis a crying need for the produc¬tion of originals,” explained Phil¬lips. "Because of their experi¬mental nature, because they needto be done, because many will beentirely lost if not performed, weare going to try to produce a sea¬son of premieres. There is some¬thing very exciting about workingon a play that has never been per¬formed before.”UT’s first production this sea¬son will be Pepel the UnburiedRussian, by James Damico, win¬ner of last year’s Charles SergeiDrama prize. The theatre hopesto have various New York andChicago directors and producersto see the play.Pepel is a farce parody on thepresent political—or supposed po¬litical-state of Russia. Tryoutsare open to all members of theUniversity. Anyone interestedshould tryout at Mandel Hall Oc¬tober 10th through 12th, Saturdayand Sunday at 2 pm and Monday,the 12th at 7 pm. Tryees areasked to have some sort of read¬ing or speech prepared before¬hand.Try out for UT's playTryouts for Pepel, the Un¬buried Russian, by JamesDamico, to be produced thisquarter by University Thea¬tre, will be held Saturday,Sunday and Monday, October10-12 in Mandel Hall. The tryoutswill be at 2 pm on the 10th and11th and at 7 pm on the 12th.James Damico’s script is thewinner of the 1959 Charles H.Sergei Contest for original drama.According to Marvin E. Phillips, director of University Theatre, theplay is "a diverting farce-parodyon the one-party system, filledwith intrigues, disguises, mis¬placed bodies, etc. I believe it sogood that it could run on Broad¬way. I have and will invite direc¬tors and producers from Chicagoand New York to see the play.”Pepel will run November 6, 7,8, 14, and 15 in Mandel Hall. Try¬outs are open to all students atthe University. Marvin Phillipswill direct the premiere of theplay.October 2, 1959 • CHICACQ MAROON 23• UC's extracurriculars •Educational Psychology clubThe Student Union, whose office is located on thethird floor of Ida Noyes, provides activities for all stu¬dents. sponsoring all campus social events such asNight of Sin, Washington Prom, Wassail Party, Grad¬uation Dance; and runs the Student Hangout.

The office requests certain assistancefrom those it serves.Directories, publications, and a lost-and-found depart¬ment are to be found at Central Information. In addi¬tion, information about major cultural events, both oncampus and off, is available.The directories are maintained for all students andfaculty, and include current addresses and phone num¬bers, for both campus and home; (such information fornon-academic employees is available at the Personneloffice). The publications distributed include virtually allUniversity announcements, handbooks, and time sched¬ules, for both the quadrangles and downtown. In addi¬tion, this office maintains all official University bulletinboards throughout the campus. All articles found oncampus are forwarded to this office, and when owner¬ship can be determined immediate notification is madeby phone and/or mail; lost items are held up to ninetydays.Information about cultural events, — including opera,symphony concerts and plays, — is available in theform of brochures for distribution and bulletins whichcan be consulted on the board.The Infoxmation office urges all students, faculty, andadministrative personnel, — for their own as well asothers’ benefit — to keep it posted on current addresses;this can be done directly or through departmentalheads, as appropriate. Administrative personnel mayforward any official brochures and bulletins to theoffice, for distribution there or posting on the bulletinboards.The phone numbers at Central Information are 2381anH 9389BlackfriarsIn the spring of 1902 this campus witnessed theworld’s first production of the now world famousoperetta “The Academic Alchemist.’* Both theUniversity and the world have, obviously, survived theshock. However, Blackfriars, the organization whichpresented this original musical comedy, never did. In¬fatuated by the lure of the musical stage, this all malegroup continued its annual productions, until 1942.The group changed its complexion greatly in its firstforty years. Growing increasingly professional and in¬creasingly exacting it soon realized the value of pi'ofes-sional directors, professional conductors, professionalchoreographers and money. The Blackfriar shows of the’20s were orgies of extraneous expenditure.But World War II forced the disbandment of the groupin 1942 and the idea lay dormant until three years agowhen some irrepressible would be Blackfriars musteredforces and presented the floor show for the Beaux Artsball.The following spring saw the first full length, fullscale Blackfriars production in well over a decade. Andlast spring’s production of Sour Mash proved that theorganization is well on its way to total recovery.With the problem of highly limited funds which besetsall extracurricular groups on campus, Blackfriars*hashad to unlearn the value of professional directors, con¬ductors and choreographers, not to mention hoards ofmoney, but they seem to be doing alright anyway. Onething the group has not been forced to forget is the in¬trinsic good found only in females and a girl can nowbe as legitimate a Blackfriar as the next fellow (if alegitimate Blackfriar be conceivable).Unlike most campus organizations which, try as youwill, you can never see anywhere, Blackfriars is highlyvisible to the naked eye at certain times of the year.To be more precise, their next official appearance willbe shortly before Festival of the Arts week in the spring.If you can’t contain your curiosity, watch for try out an¬nouncements, or just stand around, plainly visible, look- Student forumStudent Forum is the official campus debating society.The group sends debaters to tournaments yearly, whichwill include this year the Washington and Harvard meets,a debate against a visiting Cambridge team and severalarea tournaments. Throughout the year, Student forum,under the direction of Liz Truninger, will hold trainingand self-debates. Membership is open to anyone. Thosewith previous experience are strongly encouraged tojoin. The first meeting will be announced at Studentactivities night.Independent Student LeagueThe Independent Student League is one of the Uni¬versity’s three major political parties with membershipopen to any registered student. About 60 members com¬prise the party, two-thirds of whom are active. ISL,working through student government, has been con¬cerned primarily with “students as students,” that is,with the problems of a student in relation to his lifeon campus. In addition, ISL sponsors concerts and lec¬tures on campus.ISL is now the majority party in Student Governmentwith 35 out of 49 seats. The party holds meetings everysecond Sunday in Ida Noyes hall.Young Peoples Socialist leagueThis organization sponsors discussion series on cur-rent and historical topics in order to explore socialismas ideal and a problem. The club also engages in activi¬ties concerning civil rights and civil liberties projectson campus and in the neighborhood.It is claimed that membership is open to all those who“believe in the democratic ownership and control of themeans of production, and oppose both Wester Imperial¬ism and Communist totalitarianism.”YPSL is the youth affiliate of the Socialist party—Social Democratic federation, the party of Eugene V.Debs and Norman Thomas.Meetings are on Sunday afternoon at 3 pm.

If a student hasa complaint, there should be chan¬nels by which he can collect sup¬port for his argument and presentIt to the faculty, to other groupsof students on this campus andthroughout the nation, and evento higher legislative bodies in ourpolitical system.”Beyond this there are the ob¬vious advantages that can be ob¬tained by any organized group ofpeple.To illustrate: each year the stu¬dent government on this campushas offered a chartered flight toEurope available to anyone con¬nected with the University and hisfamily at a rate much lower thanstandard airline flights. Further,SG operates a laundry service, abook exchange, and a student loanservice in the basement of Reyn¬olds club.The services and ideals listedabove arc carried out by speciallyestablished committees by the stu¬dent government.However, only about 22 per centof the registered students on cam¬pus voted in the spring electionslast year. The most popular can¬didate in the College received asorry 399 votes.To better understand the prin¬ciples behind SG, the organiza¬tion's 12-year histbry might bereviewed.THE GOVERNMENT'S strueturo has always been much as itis today: there have usuallybeen two major parties, a hostof splinter groups and platformsranging from far right to farleft. Just as the girls’ clubs oncampus live only for their “prefdinner” in the fall, just as thefraternities rally most stronglyto the call of winter rush, soStudent Government exists mostspecifically for the spring elec¬tions.At the founding of SG in 1944,there existed a group generallyconsidered to be representativeof the fraternity system and agroup voicing independents’claims. One year later, both ofthe original parties were reducedto the state of dissolution whena new group, the Independent Stu¬dent League (ISL) took over.Claiming to be interested primar¬ily in the “student as a student,”ISL swept 75 of the available 85seats in the government.In the elections from 1949 to1952, ISL succeeded in confusingits enemies who were never veryclear in form. They were, to besure, independent and in favor ofreform; they were not given over¬whelming support by the rest ofthe campus. During these yearsthe opponents formed such par¬ties as the Student Assembly Re¬form Coalition CSARC), Non-Par¬tisan Students League (NPSL),and the Independent Coalition(IC).The next election in 1949 gave55 seats to ISL and 20 seats toSARC. This assembly sought todefine the general purpose of theGovernment and establish somerapport with the administration ofthe school. A "Statute of Powers”was drawn up. The administrationaccepted the “Student Bill ofRights.” Thus, SG had begun toestablish its scope of power notonly with these documents, butalso with the original constitutionof 1947. SG was granted the powerto recognize and regulate studentorganization, and the Student Fac¬ulty Administration court w a sset up.In 1950, ISL took sixty seatsand its opposition took only five.It was in tljjs assembly that ISL established the pi .iciple that theparty in power had the right toestablish the machinery of theGovernment. This was carried outwhen ISL took over all the seatson the executive council.Two more parties came into be¬ing in the election of ’51 as NPSLdied. Independent Coalition andthe Union of College independentswere in fact only splinter groupsof the old ISL and managed togain only 25 seats between themwhile three more went to otherindependents.THROUGHOUT THESE elec-tions, ISL had stressed a policyof slowly working problems outwith the administration throughconferences and discussions. Theopposition was founded on abelief that controversy shouldbe solved as quickly as possiblewith whatever means were athand.A n exchange program withFrankfurt university was estab¬lished that year.Finally in 1952, ISL was de¬feated by a newly formed partywhich called itself the StudentRepresentative party (SRP).Their slogan was, “A free univer¬sity in a free society” and theirvictory was a narrow one, 25 seatsto SRP, 21 to ISL and three forIC.ISL rallied again in 1953 to winthe election of that year with 29seats taken against 14 for SRP.Discrimination, a question thathad first appeared on the floorduring the previous year, was re¬considered in a bill called theMichigan plan. Passed in 1952,this plan resolved to not recognizeany student organization on cam¬pus that practiced discrimination.The Michigan plan was broughtto a test in the ’53 assembly whenit was pointed out that Phi DeltaTheta contained a discriminatoryclause in its constitution. After along argument, the assembly de¬cided to grant Phi Delt the inter¬vening summer as a space of timeto get their discriminatory articlechanged in the fraternity’s na¬tional convention. The measureproved successful to the degreethat the clause was indeedchanged during the summer.In 1954 ISL won its most de¬cisive victory by sweeping 42seats to SRP’s 3. SRP bouncedback in ’55 however to win by aslim 26-24 count. 1955 was thedesperate year that saw so manypresidents (four) and an anti-SGpetition.In the 1956-57 elections, ISLswept the College slate by takingall 19 seats, thereby becoming themajority party of Government.They also took 18 seats in thedivisions for a total of 37 seats to13 SRP and three to Independents.The three Independents (BAH),the first in SG since 1952, won anoverwhelming victory in the Lawschool. They took all three seatsin Law with a total of 290 votesto a totaDof 197 for their six op¬ponents.In the election of 1957, a newtype of party came into beingwhich expressed the studentbody’s disgust with such stuntsas the walkout of the ISL partyone week before NSA elections.This new party was called VICE,promised “if elected we will notserve,” and drew 17 per cent ofthe voters.The rank and file party mem¬bers of ISL who felt that theywere doing all the work while aJew “hacks” ran the governmentwent on to form their own party,the Independent association (IA).Meanwhile the hacks themselvesformed a party called the UglyTen (UT) and ruled Student Gov¬ernment in a coalition with SRP.The end of the school year saw abill from this coalition which in¬dicted Dean of Students Robert M.Strozier for threatening to veto apay raise for service center em¬ployees. The dean politely ignoredthe "indictment.”The 1957-58 assembly was con¬trolled by SRP (30) while ISLheld only 16 seats.LAST YEAR, SG boycotted theTropical Hut restaurant on 57th street because it ran an advertise¬ment in a daily paper’s help want¬ed column saying, “Only whitesneed apply.” The owner of the T-hut finally signad a statement ofnon-discrimination and SG whichhad worked together with the lo¬cal chapter of the NAACP hadwon its point.Also in the list of accomplish¬ments last year were several re-evaluations by SG and the revivalof a newsletter.Last spring’s election saw an¬other victory for ISL. They willhold a ten seat majority in thisyear’s assembly. Independent par¬ties were active last year also.They were the Imperial Revolu¬tionary party and the Party forStudent Action (PSA). IRP wasconcerned with representation byresidence, that is, each candidatewould have represented a dormi¬tory, fraternity house, and otherdwellings. PSA seemed most con¬cerned with practical problemssuch as the bookstore, ear pools,etc. instead of petty political man¬euvers. The two major parties,ISL and SRP, claimed that PSAwas composed of young inexperi¬enced members who really didn’tknow the issues. They laughed offIRP as another fluke, a returnof VICE. Apparently their opin¬ions were taken by the campus,or at least that fifth of the cam¬pus which bothers itself aboutSG, for neither of these minorparties were given a seat on thefloor for this year. Instead, theLaw school gave “overwhelming”support to the Nazi party, a newparty with three seats; no one issure just what their platform is,and whether or not they'll followthe Fuhrer.And so, in a capsular form, hereis the result of the last elevenyears of campaigning on the UCcampus: ISL has controlled theassemblies of ’48, ’49, ’50, ’51, ’53,’54 ’56 and that of this year; SRPhas controlled Government in theyears ’52, '55, ’57, and ’58. One ofthe two parties has always been inpower.THE MACHINERY of SG isnecessarily installed by the partyin power. A president is elected,this year’s—Maureen Byers (ISL)—and the executive officers andcommittee chairmen are namedby the party in power. Seven com¬mittees have been formed to car¬ry out the bidding of the assemblyand to also report to the mainbody: campus action, committeeon recognized student organiza¬tion CORSO), National Studentassociation (NSA) committee, stu¬dent rights, election and rules(E & R), community relations andthe student-faculty relations com¬mittee tSFRC). Campus Actionconcerns itself with library condi¬tions, student parking, studenthealth, and the like. CORSO re¬ports on the Hyde Park Redevel¬opment project, and incidents ofdiscrimination, the work of NSAis explained in the adjoining arti¬cle, SFRC has to do with the cur¬riculum and academic interests,E & R enforces, a fair election,, * - i ‘ • 1 -»W> : ' , which is followed by celebrationsgiven by the winning party.Student Rights is basically Inter¬ested with issues of academicfreedom, and civil liberties.CORSO investigates violations ofthe student code.The annual elections in thespring are the most provocativeoccasions for the hopeful of anyparty. His task is to present tothe student body the platformof his organization, and how hewill carry it out to the interestof the voters. Forty-nine membersare elected to the assembly. (Thefive delegates to the NSA conven¬tion are elected at the same time.)The Maroon puts out a specialGovernment issue explaining thepolicies of many interviewed can¬didates. One week later the resultsaje tabulated, but this is onlyafter the turmoil of election nighthas passed. On this night, thecandidates and those interested inSG gather in the north lounge ofReynolds club to watch the re¬turns as they come in and arecounted by E & R. WUCB broad¬casts a special coverage programWHAT ARE THE REASONSfor SG’s existence? Can studentsdo anything to correct its weak¬nesses? A recent article in theMaroon’s Gadfly ar ticle registeredthis opinion:“There is ... a reason for main¬taining a Student Government. apathyIt rests on the simple fact that thestudents need it. Over the pastfour years the student body hasfrequently complained, rioted, cir¬culated petitions, sat down,marched on the senate, and so on,to oppose the changes in policythe administration has made—allof which have done them no good.Odd that they have disregardedthe one organization that- had ittheir support—could have servedas the most effective check to theUniversity’s course. Student Gov¬ernment has no power becausethe students have invested in noneof it; it is a travesty of bureau¬cracy because its electorate hasflouted the process of making itinto anything else.“People at this University seemto have done a magnificent job ofinsulating their studies from theirregular activities. Graduate stu¬dents pretend that they won'thave to take a role in the com¬munity when they get out of here,and college people think that theirreading materials are to be dis¬cussed in class only and never in areal context.“Do the lawyers ever take any¬thing but the most cynical juve¬nile attitude toward SG? Do thepolitical scientists ever attempt tocontribute their knowledge to SGproblems? Does the committee onsocial thought or the social philos¬ophy group ever try to analyzethe problems that exist here andnow on this campus rather thanin books? Do college people in thesocial science courses ever re¬member anything de Toequevilleor Madison said about politicalproblems once they get out ofclass?“No wonder Student Govern¬ment is sick. Most students don’tvote, wron’t accept office, don’t goto party caucuses, to have betterpeople elected and certainly won’tgo to the open SG meeting to havetheir opinions heard. All they willdo, besides laugh at SG, is passout petitions to abolish it, to abol¬ish the one weapon that could beeffective in their fight with theadministration for their rights.“SG is being laughed right intoits grave; its death will signal thedisappearance of the last possibleeffective tool the students had forpreserving their rights. Maybethe students want it this way;maybe they think they can accom¬plish more without it. But I, forone, don't believe that.”Give NSA structureTHE UNITED STATES National Student association (USNSA),to be official about the title, is an alliance to 373 college and uni¬versity student governments.Founded only 10 years ago, USNSA has expanded rapidly, enroll¬ing at least 25 new member schools each year since 1953.USNSA has undertaken many functions. Rising university enroll¬ment, segregation in US education, student lesponsibility, and workwith students overseas all are subjects of USNSA concern.USNSA officers visit the member schools an answer questionsabout student government and campus wide organizations. A vig¬orous campus program is urged by USNSA in every field and veryspecific suggestions are usually proffered.ALL THIS takes money, and NSA keeps a full time staff of 37and operates on an annual budget which exceeds $1,000,00. Yetthis costs the student very little, less than two cents a year to bespecific, as total dues paid by member schools account for only$20,000 annually. The remainder of the budget is raised by USNSAfrom philanthropic foundations, individual service organizations, andwithin the framework of Educational Travel, incorporated.A recent $25,000 grant will enable USNSA to probe for studentmethods to improve university education and interest in teaching.The basic membership unit of USNSA is the student body. Thestudent government is the principal channel through which theAssociation reaches this large group.Well over 90% of all accredited colleges have some type of self-governing body; a body which, by virtue of its composition andconstitution, is recognized by both the students and the administra¬tion as representative of the student community as a whole. |USNSA OFFICIALS express their campus position as “neithersuperior to, nor independent of, the student government at-an indi¬vidual school; rather USNSA on the campus is an integral partof that body. As long as the representative character of thesestudent governments are maintained, USNSA will continue to berepresentative.” iAnnually, student governments affiliated with USNSA from everytheir duly elected delegates to the National student congress (NSC).It is this congress which establishes all policy and programs ofUSNSA. v{Each member school in USNSA may send one to seven votingdelegates to this meeting, the number being decided on the basis*of the school’s population. And while emergency policies mayhave been enaeled by the national executive committee betweenmeeting of the Congress, all these policies are subject to reviewby the Congress. . , i]October 2, 1959 • CHICAGO MAROON • 25j"T1 .

Kimpton, chan¬cellor of the University, was sawingoff planks of his educational philosophy.“The college never has been frozen,crystallized; it’s been chaotic since 1892,’’Kimpton continued. “You must admit thatthe situation is exciting and stimulating.I don’t think it would be neaxly as inter¬esting had we all the answers.“The spirit of adventure has alwaysbeen a part of this institution and hasshown itself in countless experimentswhich have opened up new modes ofthought and action. We re still experi¬menting, but we are now rather sure weknow where we are going.” The Chancel¬lor sighed in what semed to be relief.This belief is not without some justifi¬cation. When Kimpton was inauguratedin 1951 as the sixth chief administrativehead of the University, three grave prob¬lems confronted the school: deteriorationof the University’s neighborhood, of itsbudget, and of its enrollment.Lawrence A. KimptonChancellor of the UniversityAlready a new Hyde Park can be seenrising from its own rubble, the budgethas been balanced and the endowmentincreased some 25 per cent, and the Col¬lege has been reconsidered and recon¬structed in a manner which satisfies theChancellor.Kimpton made his first appearance onthe quadrangles in 1943, when he acceptedan understandably unspectacular positionas associate chief administrator of themetallurgy project. Within the year hesucceeded Wilbur C. Munnecke as chiefadministrator. Out of this project camethe atomic bomb.During much of this time, Kimpton wasalso serving as dean of students and pro¬fessor of philosophy. Successful at allthese ventures, he was made vice-presi¬dent and dean of the faculties in 1946.Apparently missing close contact withstudents, Kimpton left Chicago for threeyears to serve as dean of students at hisalma mater, Stanford university.Kimpton returnsRobert Maynard Hutchins, Chancellorat that time, induced the young adminis¬trator to return to Chicago in 1950 toserve as vice-president in charge of de¬velopment. Shortly after this Hutchinstendered his own resignation, and in thespring of 1951, the board of trustees an¬nounced the appointment of Kimpton tohis present position.He was anxious to continue discussingthe new College. “What is general edu¬cation? What is specialized education?And how are the two put together toform something called ‘liberal educationat the undergraduate level?’ The greatdebates of the University have centeredabout this subject for the last 25 years.We have located, relocated, and redefineddegrees; defined, redefined and reworkedcurricula; and we still are not sure of themeaning of our bachelor’s degree.“Our problem comes about, I suspect,because we did not have a normal child¬hood. Most well-reared universities beganas colleges and got the undergraduateprogram well established before they tookon advanced training. Because we beganas a graduate and professional center, wehave been struggling ever since to findthe proper place and function for under¬graduate education.”Kimpton himself had none too normal26 *2 C H I £ AG 0 r M A R 00 N an academic childhood. Entering Stanfordat the age of 16 because it was “as far ashe could get from Harvard” — Kimptonwas, by his own admission, “a fairly iiA-possibie young man.” At one time oranother, he claims, he majored in every¬thing.His first major interest, psychology,collapsed under him one day when heasked the famous psychologist, LouisMadison Terman, what ‘intelligence’ is.Terman replied that intelligence is whatthe man, who made the intelligence test,tests. Kimpton turned to law.Law, too, proved a disappointment.Kimpton had gone on for some time, hap¬pily probing the ethical and moral depthsof jurisprudence, when one day one of hisinstructors pointed out that ethics andmorality have little to do with practicallaw, and that Kimpton was trying to be¬gin his legal careef where a SupremeCourt justice ended his. The Chancellorthen turned to philosophy.Although he almost took his PhD inGreek, philosophy seemed his most suc¬cessful pursuit, and Cornell Universityawarded neo-Kantian Kimpton a doctor¬ate for his thesis, “The problems andmethod of the critical philosophy — astudy of Immanuel Kant.”“Should each student be compelled totake exactly the same courses and to readand discuss the same materials?” Kimp¬ton asked, posing a defense for his ownacademic history.“Under the free elective system the stu¬dent did hear and enjoy some great lec¬tures upon some important subjects, andhe did learn the values of undirected in¬tellectual browsing.Gives new options"It is a fine thing to take a course inGreek simply because one has an interestin learning something about this magnifi¬cent language; and if one’s primary in¬terest lies in the humanities it is a finething also to take a sporting flutter inthe mysteries of chemistry or highermathematics.” The new College, Kimptonexplained, will give a student preciselythese options.Now that the "new College” has beenconstructed, what are his next majorprojects? “One of the first things I wantto do is communicate the idea of thisscl\bol to the public. Our public relationshave always been a problem. The publichad an image of the University, yes in¬deed, but it was an image of a universitywhich never existed; you know that aswell*as I.“Nevertheless, that image hurt us bad¬ly. It hurt us in terms of students and interms of money. God knows I don’t givea damn about money; it’s agony for meto raise it, but on the other hand, it doeskeep the institution going. I care very di¬rectly about students.”False image of UCNewspapers have caused much of thisfalse image, Kimpton claimed. He referredspecifically to the Time article last springon the appointment of Alan Simpson asdean of the College. “Newspapers keepthrowing us into overcompensation.“If I say we’re not all communists, thenthe newspapers loudly proclaim that we’reall rosy-cheeked fresh-shaven all-Amer¬ican high-school student leaders. We’renot. If I say we have a fine athletic pro¬gram, then all at once we’re headedstraight back for the Big Ten. Once again,we’re not. There seems to be no balance.”Despite everything the mass-media haveasserted, Kimpton is looking for no cultof normality. “One of the reasons that Ileft Stanford in 1950,” he laughed out,“was that it was too damn normal.“God knows I want brains here; that iswhat we’re all about. I simply want thebest possible students attracted to the Uni¬versity of Chicago. I don’t care whetherthey grow beards or not; an occasionalbeard is a good thing for some people. Iwant to see Chicago understood for whatit is and wanted for what it is.”One of Kimpton’s objections to the “oldCollege” was its internal normality. Heclaimed that, since everyone took thesame courses and read the same books,“a lock step developed in the College:each student saying just what every otherstudent said.”Once again the Chancellor laid down hisdictum on the validity of controlled va¬riety. He does not agree that there is anysingle way a person must be educated,pointing out that Plato and Aristotle bothconstructed superb systems of education,but systems poles apart. Lincoln, he main¬tained, while having no formal education,was still a well educated man. “Therewere men with liberal educations,” he ar¬gued, “long before there were liberal-artscolleges.”• tktobev 2, 1959 In addition to improving the Univer¬sity’s communication with the generalpublic, Kimpton hopes to ameliorate ad¬ministration communication with stu¬dents. “The University,” he explained,“has a very long and very ^ad traditionof secrecy; this is a faculty- and research-orientated institution, and this makes itvery easy to forget about the student.”He has not yet decided how to go aboutthis but expects to find some solutionsoon.One almost certain possibility Is moreregular communication through the MA¬ROON.Chancellor's desire for student contactKimpton quite obviously enjoys talkingto students. His speech is open and candidand generaly quite convincing. An effec¬tive speaker, he is ever ready to exercisehis art.Due to his administrative responsibil¬ities, Kimpton has not been able to teacha course since becoming chancellor. Hereadily admits missing this form of con¬tact. “Philosophy is still my first love; ad¬ministration is definitely in second place.However, one must cross bridges.”Fearing that his bridges are burned be¬hind him, Kimpton does not expect everto return to teaching. “I’ve been out ofcontact for a long time; besides I findreal satisfaction in spending my life pro¬moting the research of other people.”Kimpton holds that people not engagedin research should not teach. “A man whodoesn’t keep abreast of scholarship bydoing it is soon dead as a teacher,” heexplained. “A man can not only teach.People are not satisfied only to teach, orelse they’re not any good.“I fully realize,” he added, “that not allresearch men can teach. I know that ev¬ery student puts in some dull hours undermen who are great in the library or lab¬oratory but profoundly dull in the class¬room. This is unfortunate, but once again,Chicago is a faculty-oriented, research-oriented school.Kimpton's educationThe Chancellor was born October 7,1910, in Kansas City, Missouri, and is theson of Carl E. Kimpton and Lynn Ken¬nedy Kimpton. His parents had met asundergraduates at the University of Kan¬sas, where his father took his law degree.Though bid, Kimpton did not join afraternity. Ilis family had a long andstrong anti-fraternity tradition. Kimpton’sfather had even declined membership inPhi Beta Kappa on the grounds that itwas a fraternity, even if honorary. TheChancellor’s attitude toward fraternitieshas since changed, and he is quite proudof the University’s system, claiming that“they do a superb job here."Kimpton now regrets that he didn’t de¬vote more of his undergraduate time toextra-curricular activities. He went on topoint out an inverse parallel between him¬self and Robert M. Hutchins, his predeces¬sor. “Bob was up to his ears in studentactivities when he was an undergraduate,and as you know he exhibited no greatlove for them when he was Chancellor.I’m quite sincerely interested in expand¬ing the program here, although I wasinvolved in next to nothing when I was astudent.”One reason he did not find time forextra-curricular activities was a lesson inthe value of money taught him by hisMr. and Mrs. Kimpton, and PatHarrison, vice president of UC atBeaux Arts. father after his freshman year at Stan¬ford. In the first year, his father, whohad an extensive law practice, made hischecking account into a joint one withhis son. Young Kimpton wrote checksfreely, and among other things boughtan automobile.Shortly after his return to Kansas City,his father asked him to come to his lawoffice one Saturday afternoon and thenproduced the cancelled checks written atStanford. When added at his father’s di¬rection, they totalled $2,300.After attending a public grammarschool, Kimpton attended Southwest highschool in Kansas City, playing on thabasketball team, and winning some prom¬inence as a sprinter, though he was only16 when he graduated. In high school hawas elected president of his class andpresident of the student body.He entered Stanford in 1927, and hisacademic record was of such quality thathe was elected to Phi Beta Kappa in hisjunior year. He was briefly a candidatefor the football team, but was advised by“Pop” Warner, a long-time friend of hismother’s family, “to try something else."He did not continue his track and basket¬ball playing in college but was a memberof the debating team.Pointing out that inquiry to the deanhad indicated that such an amount wasmore than lavish for a Stanford student,the senior Kimpton announced that hewould pay his son’s railroad fare to PaloAlto in the autumn, but would pay nomore of his college expenses.As a sophomore, therefore, Kimptonearned his way “hashing” in the StanfordUnion, delivering the student newspaper,working in a sports shop, and selling forthe concessionaire at football games. Heearned over $800 and finished the yearwith $60 left. Thereafter, his father paidhis expenses.PhD at CornellFollowing his studies at Stanford, Kimp¬ton took a PhD in philosophy at Cornelluniversity in 1935. He then began an un¬broken career in academic administration.His first appointment was at Deep Springsschool, a small institution in the highSierras of remote east central California,where he taught English, German, andphilosophy.In 1936 he was appointed dean and di¬rector of the school, which had some 20students and almost as many facultymembers. Among his responsibilities asdirector was the management of theschool’s huge valley ranch, covering ap¬proximately 250 square njiles, on whichran a herd of over 1000 cattle.As director, Kimpton was in charge ofall cattle operations, and on one occasionthis work involved tracking down a rus¬tler who was putting his own brand onthe school's calves. The rustler turned outto be another faculty member.A casual visit to the school from JamesBryant Conant, then president of Harvarduniversity, began the chain of circum¬stances which brought Kimpton to Chi¬cago.Conant’s visit was in 1937. While atDeep Springs, he became interested in theschool’s chemistry courses and found bothcourses and instruction lacking the qual¬ity which he, as an authority in thespecialty, expected.He therefore arranged, with Kimpton’ssupport, for members of the CaliforniaInstitute of Technology faculty to visitDeep Springs. They, in turn, sent a suc¬cession of their graduate students toteach parts of the course.Many of these young chemists subse¬quently joined the staff of the “Manhat¬tan District’s” metallurgy project, whichdeveloped the atomic bomb. In this com-plex effort, administrators were urgentlyneeded and the Cal Tech graduates re¬membered Kimpton and recommendedhim.Meanwhile, Kimpton had left DeepSpring in 1941 to spend a year running acattle ranch in Nevada, and he wound upas dean of the college of liberal arts, andprofessor of mathematics and philosophy,at the University of Kansas City, afterthe Army had rejected him because ofhis eyes.In May of 1943, Kimpton got a callfrom Conant ordering him to come toChicago, Conant refused to reveal whatposition was waiting, but Kimpton obedi¬ently came and saw the University forthe first time on July I, 1943.His chief administrative function waskeeping the army, the industrial scien¬tists, and the university scientists fromdriving each other mad. He laughinglyrecalled one army officer who .wanted tomake Enrico Fermi punch a time clock.“Someday I shall tell my grandchildrenthat I helped win the war by fighting theUnited States Army,” he commented.-EhdebiiSQSI1QQEQC3W3M5NVT0DH Miss Horning takes you strolling on 55thfind by Carol HorningNewcomers to ramnnc will versuy Aavern wrAlcn notj . . . c<amPus Will to jjg confuse(j With Universitytutions at this institution: Uni¬versity Tavern (UT) which is notmuch to inspire wonder Theatre construction for storing hundredsand hundreds of kegs of goodAndeker and fine cheap whisky.There have been ugly rumoursthat these rooms are to be bed¬rooms.

TheInitial phase of this evaluation isdone on an assembly-line basisand requires, on the average, an]K>ur of the student’s time. At thetime of this first go-around, thepaper work of the health recordto established and certain screen¬ing tests are made. Each studentmust report back to the Healthservice two days later for aboutfive minutes to get the results ofthe tests, to have the tuberculosisskin test read and to find outwhether any additional tests orexaminaions are necessary.Health clearance Is a mustThe new entrants and studentsreturning after a lapse of threeor more years are required to re¬port The appointments, instruc¬tions and a brief explanation ofthe procedures are given out attime of registration. Because it iscostly to set up the assembly-line,late registrants and students whofail to keep their Health Serviceappointments are charged a latefee of $3.00. The Health servicewould prefer having the studentsreport on time rather than to en¬gage in the painful business ofextracting the fine.When the basic record has beenestablished it is much easier torender care for acute illnessesand injuries which may befallstudents as time goes on. CareIn the emergency room at nightor on week-ends is more expedi¬tious for the properly registeredperson.Students ratedThe initial assembly-line pro¬cedure plus the five minute re¬turn in two days is all that isnecessary for about half of theexaminees. This half of the stu¬dents, on the basis of the healthscreening alone, achieves a healthrating for physical education of"A” (no limitations on activity)and need not return unless foraome reason a more completephysical eyamination is desiredby the student himself or unlessnew health problems arise. Forthe other half, additional studiesare mandatory or advisable. Ifhealth problems are discovered,each student is free to decidewhat he wants to do about themas regards treatment. While moststudents elect to benefit them¬selves through the methods oforthodox medicine, this policy inno way interferes with othermethods of treatment, such ashealing Jay prayer. Service appointments neededStudents who wish care at theHealth service during quarterswhen they are registered shouldmake every effort to get a spe¬cific appointment to be seen. Aphone call to Ext. 5221 will assurethe student of specific schedulingand should save him a great dealof time. Since acute illnesses andinjuries strike suddenly and ad¬vance appointments are out ofthe question, the health serviceis prepared to take care of in¬stances of this start. It still wouldbe helpful if, before starting toBillings hospital (where theHealth service is located) stu¬dents with emergency problemsor acute illness would phone 5221from home, the dormitory or theclassroom. This gives the staff ofthe Health service a little timeto make preparations—such aspulling the clinical record, freeingup extra doctors and nurses fromtheir scheduled activities.Home visits excludedBecause modern medicine canbest be practiced in a clinical set¬ting, the Health service does notprovide physician’s calls to housesor dormitories. If a patient feelsthat he is too ill to leave his bedin his home, it is all the morenecessary for him to have hisdiagnostic evaluation in a placewhere physical examination,x-rays, laboratosy tests and con¬sultation by specialists can be hadwithout delay. In instances wherethe student is absolutely unable tocome in on his own, the StudentHealth service will provide appro¬priate transportation, -includingambulance. Since ambulancetransport is a heavy chargeagainst the SHS budget, dispatchof an ambulance must be nujeby the Student Health service or,when SHS is closed, the Emer¬gency room of Billings hospital.Students who are taken ill athome and wish aid from theHealth service should phone MU4-6100, Ext. 5221 during officehours, and explain to the switch¬board operator that they are illand want to talk to a doctor. Be¬tween 5 PM and 8 AM on week¬days and after 12 on Saturdays to8 AM Mondays, when SHS isclosed, students will have to re¬port to the Emergency room inperson.Students who are taken ill inthe dormitories should report tothe house heads who Know howto proceed.Emergency service availableSHS and the University as awhole are deeply concerned thatstudents who become seriously illat times when SHS is closed willmake prompt use of the emer¬gency service at Billings hospital(Drexel avenue between 58th and59th Street). A charge is made forthis service but it is small com¬pared to the advantage when serious illness is involved. TheStudent Health service and stu¬dents themselves are needlesslypenalized when the emergencyroom is misused for trivial condi¬tions that could wait until SHSitself was open.The program of the HealthService does provide public healthnursing visits to students forwhom this care is recommendedby the SHS physicians. Studentsare placed on home-nursing super¬vision after their problem hasbeen analyzed by the StudentHealth doctor and appropriate ex¬amination, blood counts, culturesand x-rays have been made. Forthe most part, home-nursing sup¬ervision is used for respiratoryillnesses, including the commoncold and flue, for which confine¬ment in quarters for a few daysis desirable. Nurses cannot makediagnostic visits but are able toimplement therapy, once the diag¬nosis has been established.Obtaining polio shotsMany students now have com¬pleted the immunization series forpolio. Those students who havenot had first or second shots canget them from Student Healthservice during the winter quarter.Boosters should be had in springquarter, in order to increase theantibodies against polio at thetime when the polio season isabout to start. Since this is thebest timing for polio protectionin this part of the world, SHSwill not give polio shots duringfall quarter. It is expected thatpolio v accine will be availablewithout charge because the Illi¬nois General Assembly—this pastsession passed a Bill enabling theDepartment of Public Health tofurnish the vaccine. As is oftenthe case with legislatures, theydid not provide additional moniesfor this; so the actual availabilityof "free” vaccine (tax-financed)when the people need it dependson the availability of funds in theHealth department.Provide insurance planLast year, for the first time, aTANENBAUM PHARMACY1142 E. 55th 5500 CornellBU 8-1142 Ml 3-5300Free DeliveryStudent Discount on All"Your Drug NeedsHey, PaisaniWelcome BackPhoaes^ MU 4-10143 MU 4-1015MU 4-9022 dive Us a Ringand We'll Deliver!5 p.m. fro 1:30 a.m.Sun. fro Thur.5 p.m. fro 2:30 a.m.Fri./ Sat.ITALIAN FIESTA PIZZERIA1427 Eott 67 th Street/ STUDENTWIVESWORK ON CAMPUSThe Personnel Office has avariety of full-time clericaland technical positions avail¬able.WE NEED•.SecretariesStenographersTypistsClerksClinical TechniciansResearch Technicians(including)Medical ChemistsHematologistsHistologistsBacteriologistsBENEFITS INCLUDE3 weeks' paid vacation2 weeks' sick leaveTuition remissionLibrary and recreationalprivilegesapply NOWPersonnel Office956 E. 58th St. health and accident insurance pro¬gram for conditions requiringhospital care was introduced ona voluntary basis for students atUC. This extends the length ofcoverage for in-hospital care pro¬vided by the SHS program andgives first-day coverage up to 31days per illness or accident tostudents when they are not regis¬tered or are off campus skiingor otherwise involved on vaca¬tions. Because students have theentrance health evaluation, andgood comprehensive ambulatorycare through the SHS and cov¬erage for the first seven days ofhospitalization through SHS whileon campus, the premiums perquarter are remarkably low con¬sidering the extent of benefitspayable in case of need. The fa¬vorable experience with this pro¬gram last year has enabled theinsurance company to extend theoriginal benefits at no increase inpremium. Last year 16 of the stu¬dents enrolled in the plan receivedbenefits with amounts reaching ashigh as $820.00.Students need to be remindedof the fact that when they reach the age of 18 or 19, most familyBlue Cross-Blue Shield plans nolonger cover them. They need tomake their own arrangements.The program as designed for ourstudents is a good one, and eachstudent, before he elects not toparticipate—(that is, to part with$2.50 per quarter for premiumswhen registered and $6.00 for"off-quarters”) should ask somesearching questions as to how hewould meet the considerable costsof hospitalization during hisacademic years.Introducing the SHS staffNew students may wish toknow something of the qualifica¬tions of the doctors, nurses andother Health service’s personnelavailable to them through SHS.The staff includes eighteenphysicians, some of whom are onfull-time assignment to studentsand others part-time for sched¬uled appointments.

V \ V . v ‘A review of the ReviewThe Fall issue of the Chicago Review, like almost any issue of almost any literary maga¬zine, has its interesting and unfortunate moments. But this issue is unusual because its bestwork is fiction — a story by John Schultz called ‘The Hickory Stick Rider.”The story is hallucinatory. A man in Chicago has not heard from a certain woman in NewYork, so he mounts a hickory stick and flies off to find her. Before he leaves Chicago, how¬ever, he attempts to help a woman calling in distress from the Tribune Tower. The attemptfails, he flies on to New York, " :finds the woman, has peculiar tional.

Among the examples heused was that of the salesman, so"intoxicated with his own exuber¬ance,” he believes his own sales-talk, the dictator who can "neverbe so truly callous as to think herules entirely for his own good,”and tyrants of history who havebelieved their own misguided,persuasive speeches.“In front of you are the shamsof the great learned fraternity.Not of course of this campus, forwe have no shams here.” As fields of general education.Alan SimpsonDoan of the New College mote some feeling for others.“Some of you here, while youare here, will undoubtedly embar¬rass the administration. ... It isyour place to agitate mine tomoderate,” said Simpson in con¬nection with his summary of thefeeling for others he hoped thestudents would cultivate. Forsome he said, this feeling wouldtake such forms as agitating forSouth African defense, or fight¬ing for various social causes inthis country. For others, the formmight be more purely charitablecauses or simple courtesy andconsideration.In conclusion, Simpson statedthat “every good education shouldmeet both the test of all times,and test of your particular time.”He defined the former test as theideal of the educated man, longexistant, which is “to know a littleabout everything and a great dealabout something.”The test of our particular time,said Simpson, must be met by H-bomb (cont.)Perhaps the effects of the larg¬er nuclear weapons can be mostvividly demonstrated by relatingthe effects a ten megaton bombwould have on Chicago.

The othermainstays of the squad were Ros-tik Zajtchuka, Bill Hauser, JohnCotten, Randy Denney, UmbertiNeri, Neeman Taylor, Dick Ayes-see, Lee Keener, and Oheh Ko-werko.Cross counfryThree seniors and a freshmanled Ted Haydon's cross country'team in the 1958 season, andthough the team boasted a 3-1record at midseason, they droppedtheir final 5 meets and finishedthe year with a 3 win and 6 lossslate.Steady performances wereturned in by seniors Ned Price,Hosea Martin, and Dave Houk,while freshman Preston Grantand juniors Walt Perschke, DanCosgrove, and Larry Cohen filledstrong supporting roles.The Maroons topped DePaul18-45, lost to Eastern Michigan49-15, stopped Valparaiso 20-40,and stopped Wright Jr. 23-38 be¬fore hitting their losing streak.The locals fell before Northernby Bill SpadyAthletic director Walter Hassand his staff have watched thefortunes of Chicago’s intercol¬legiate varsity teams improvewith surprasing success since1956, after an athletic draughthad invaded the campus in theyears following W'orld War II.Among the most notable accom¬plishments of the 1958-59 seasonwere a 13-6 team record in bas¬ketball, the best season’s mark in38 years; a swimming team whichcompletely rewrote the UC recordbooks; a freshman-dominated ten¬nis squad which dropped only oneregular season match while cap¬turing the Chicago Intercollegiatechampionships; and an unde¬feated indoor track team whoseefforts in the outdoor season wereonly slightly less spectacular.Of Chicago’s eleven varsitysports, two are conducted in thefall: cross eountry and soccer;five during the winter: basket¬ball, swimming, fencing, wres¬tling, and gymnastics; and fourin the spring: track, baseball,golf, and tennis. Although indoortrack is conducted in the fieldhouse during winter quarter, let¬ters are given on the basis of bothindoor and outdoor performances.AutumnSoccerAlthough plagued by in¬juries in its scanty ranks, theUC soccer team made a re¬spectable showing last fallunder the guidance of Alvar Her-manson. The squad compiled a 1 Illinois 47-15, Albion 40-21, West¬ern Illinois 44-15, Wabash 50-15,and UIC 28-27.With only a handful of experi¬enced runners on hand this year,the Maroons will face a year ofrebuilding and developing. Hay-don’s hopes rest on the perform¬ances of Grant. Cosgrove, Per¬schke, Pete McKeon, Tom Clarke,and Vic Neill.WinterBasketballOne of the most conspicuouslyimproved sports during the pastfew seasons has been basketball.With Joe Stampf taking thehealm in the fall of 1957, theMaroon cage fortunes have waxedbeyond expectation, and thisyear’s quintet looks to be themost talented aggregation ofstalwarts the University hasboasted for two decades.With all of last year’s squadreturning and a large number ofexceptional entering students vie-ing for one of the fifteen varsitypositions, Stampfs greatest con¬cern will be that of selecting thebest players. Stampf expects thecompetition for positions to be theclosest and best he has ever facedas a coach.The 1958-59 team started slow¬ly, with freshmen and sopho¬mores playing many of the keyroles against schools with wellseasoned teams. But as the sea¬son progressed so did the skill,confidence, and poise of theMaroons. The squad met threeof its six defeats in December;while racking up a slate of 11wins and 3 losses during the finaltwo months of the season.Chicago’s No. 1 point makerand rebounder was Gary Pearson, a 64 forward from Livings¬ton, Montana, who will be playinghis final season this year. Pear¬son made 108 field goals in 219attempts for a .493 shooting markfrom the field and tallied 80 of133 free throw tries for a total of296 points and a 15.6 average.“Gus” cleared 248 rebounds, anifty 13.1 per game.Another of Stampf’s returningaces is Mitchell Watkins, a 6-4forward who had spent two years Fancy footwork in a hard-fought contest with Indiana Techresulted in a 2-1 victory for Coach Alvar Hermanson's varsitysoccer team.on the UC varsity before enteringthe service. Mitch returned atmid-season last year and totalled21 points in 14 games with 86field goals and 39 charity tosses.His .697 at the foul line was highfor the team. Watkins grabbed10 rebounds and shot .374 fromthe floor.Clarence Woods, the squad’stallest player at 6-5, was the thirdman to score over 200 points forthe year, finishing with 218 anda .483 field goal percentage. Clayhauled in 184 rebounds and de¬veloped a fine shooting touchtoward the end of the season.Other standouts were guardsJohn Davey and Ray Strecker,forwards Jerry Toren and GaryTegtmeier, and center JerryTomasovic. In addition to thevarsity returnees Stampf willwelcome two other lettermen, TedRomoser and Hal Devitt both ofwhom have spent time in theservice.GymnasticsCoach Bob Kreidler’s gymnas¬tics team, low in numbers anddepth, failed to win a meet in1958-59 competition, but producedthe finest individual performer inmany years: George Andros. An¬dros compiled 141 points duringthe season, working outstanding¬ly in 6 of the 7 events. Freshmantumbling sensation Joe Kuypers earned 108 points and was topman in three events. Fred Bis-shopp, Kreidler’s side horse spe¬cialist, worked 3 events and won63 points for the year.After a string of 6 straightlosses, the rapidly improvingMaroons managed a 56-56 tie withNorthern Illinois in their finaldual match of the season. TTielocals lost to Ohio State 6746,Iowa 70-38, Ball State 72-38,Southern Illinois 89-22, Wisconsin68^42^, and UIC 73-37.With Andros gone via the grad¬uation route, Keidler faces a biguphill climb again this year, buthe expects great improvementfrom many underclassmen whowere novices last season.WrestlingChicago’s new wrestling men¬tor Donald Bengtson will havelittle difficulty finding adequatematerial for his squad whenworkouts begin this year. Bengt¬son, a graduate of Minnesota in'58 where he wrestled for 3 years,will welcome all but one of lastseason’s regulars plus a group ofambitious underclassmen.

Mrs.Abrahamson was executive directorof the Hyde Park-Kenwood Communityconference until 1956. The conference,over the past nine years, has been the sus¬taining force in th? renewal of this, thecommunity in which we live.During the 1920’s Hyde Park and Ken¬wood, the area surrounding the Univer¬sity, was a place of luxurious homes andapartments—the “showplace” of Chicagowhere many wealthy “aristocrats,” togeth¬er with large families and servants, lived.Toward the 1940’s, no more space wasavailable in this area, and multiple-unithousing was established for the white-col¬lar worker and middle-class groups whichwere starting to demand housing in theneighborhood.The pattern of growth thereafter is afamiliar one to cities with rapid industrialexpansion. The Chicago of this period wasa city of prosperity, where thousandsflocked from the South seeking jobs.Verbal contracts by real-estate men hadkept Negroes in a ghetto bordering on theHyde Park-Kenwood area. Now, however,this section of Negroes was bursting atthe scams and spilling over into adjoiningneighborhoods. Speculators would operate by starting a panic in an exclusively whitenieghborhood, claiming that the sectionwould soon be invaded by Negroes and theowners’ property would sink in value.Owners became frightened and sold outat low prices to the speculators who, inturn, converted the structures into asmany single apartments as possible. Some¬times the upper-income-bracket Negrofamily, wishing to avoid slum conditions,would buy an older home In one of thesections just “opening up” at highly in¬flated prices.■*** White residents flee“Hyde Park-Kenwood in 194 9 wasgravely threatened. It was surrounded byblighted and near-blighted sections, andthe blight was spreading. There was nocomfort in history. Neighborhood afterneighborhood throughout the industrialNorth had gone through the same process:decline, overcrowding, loss of higher-in¬come families, flight of white residents asNegroes moved in, and finally slums lev¬eled by bulldozers and then rebuilt at tre¬mendous expense to the taxpayer.”The only way to avoid this problemwould have t© come from the residentsof the district themselves. They met inconferences and committees to discusswhat should be done. From these earlycommittees, many of which were knownto exist in order to “keep the area white,’*came a group of some 300 people who hadMAwmit touAm | -playground area northI A plot plan showing arrangement of townhouses in Harper Square.34 •" CHICAGO MAROON t October 2, 1959 decided to meet with experts in the fieldto find some way to preserve their neigh¬borhood.The decision \#as that the communityshould exist on an interracial basis. Itseemed that in no other way could thefear of skidding property values be dis¬pelled. If racial groups were continuallyseparated, there would always be the con¬tention over “buffer zones,” the fast-buckreal-estate operator, and the tension be¬tween blocks which characterizes the un¬stable and transient community.The success of this attempt is told todayby the vast redevelopment project ($40million), most of which is still under con¬struction. This, of course, has meant thedemolition of many acres of property—suitable homes as well as tenements, pros¬perous business establishments togetherwith taverns and pool halls. None but theinhabitants of these dwellings have knownthe real sacrifice and personal loss whichmust accompany such a redevelopmentplan.How to get support?Perhaps one of the most important prob¬lems facing the conference was the pointof interesting major blocks of citizens’committees, the University, and propersupport from the city legislature.“The university’s past support of restric¬tive covenants was no secret. After listen¬ing to a quick review of the program andwork of the conference, Chancellor RobertMaynard Hutchins announced that he wasgoing to have to do what he was frequentlyforced to do because of his busy schedule—“make a statement of his own positionand then leave for another appointment”In addition to the problems of gainingsupport for the project, the conferenceknew that it had to take steps to eradicate blight in the Hyde Park-Kenwood areabefore it spread further. The existing lawspreventing the practice of converting exist¬ing buildings into overcrowded share-the-bath sleeping rooms were difficult to en¬force.Time after time cases of conversionwere taken to court oniy to be thrownout because of lack of evidence. Even whenthe offenders were found guilty, fines of$15 plus costs were common. However, thesleeping-room exploiter who housed toomany people in one room was oftenaiiowed time to correct his establishmentIf the proprietor was sincerely inter¬ested in improving his community, hewould reconvert. If not, he merely appliedfor the proper building permit and didnothing else.New legislation was enacted to preventthese bypasses only after continued in¬sistence by the lawyers from the confer¬ence.“The work of the conference had begunto attract national attention, and the recog¬nition it received—through awards, lauda¬tory articles in newspapers and magazines,radio and TV programs, books and pam¬phlets—gave the organization new staturein its own community. Businessmen beganto take pride in the fact that Hyde Park-Kenwood was leading the nation in apioneering attempt at conservation.”The meagre $12,000 budget whichstarted the conference was gained by duescollected from the neighborhood members,who also got the Field foundation to pro¬vide $5,000. Other organizations, such mthe Chicago Community trust, the Coun¬cil of Churches and Synagogues, and busi¬nessmen's associations provided the bal¬ance.(Continued on page 35)HYDE PARK, CHICAGOTown HousesEAST VIEW — HARPER SQUARE•A familiar sight in Hyde Park during the past months is the bulldozerclearing away lots for the new buildings such as the one shown at right.costly metamorphosis(Continued from page 34)Years later, $42,000 came from the com¬munity itself and $22,000 was granted bythe CCT, the Division fund, the J and Sfoundation, the Field foundation, the EmilSchwarzhaupt foundation, and the Wie-boldt foundation.‘Through the years, the University ofChicago administration had tried in a num¬ber of ways to protect and improve itsimmediate vicinity. It had built or boughthousing for hundreds of university em¬ployes, helped to finance the purchase ofhomes for faculty members, tried to con¬trol the use and occupancy of surroundingproperty, helped to support such commu¬nity organizations as the Hyde Park Plan¬ning association, WoodlSwn, Inc., and theSouth Side Planning board, had been oneof the major forces in bringing about, in1939, a planning study of Woodlawn, thedeteriorating community south of the Uni¬versity. These efforts had obviously beentoo limited to achieve their purpose. Dete¬rioration had kept spreading and the com¬munity surrounding the University hadcontinued to decline with frighteningspeed.Conference leadership had been greatlyheartened, therefore, when in 1951 Law¬rence A. Kimpton, the new chancellor ofthe University, stated that one of his highpriority projects was to take the lead to¬ward conservation of the South Side neigh¬borhood.Early in 1952, the six neighborhood or¬ganizations—including the University ofChicago—began the series of meetings de¬scribed above.The appointment of the University’schief executive as chairman of the Com¬mittee of Five brought him into concen¬trated study of the community’s problemsand eventually led to the university’s com¬mitment to a far-reaching community pro¬gram.The committee recommended that a neworganization—the South East Chicagocommission—be formed, covering the Oak¬land and Woodlawn communities as wellas Hyde Park and Kenwood, which wouldcooperate with already existing organiza¬tions in those areas. The University ofChicago would contribute $15,000 to a $30,-000 budget the first year and $10,000 foreach of the four succeeding years.” For their first accomplishments, the newcommittees decided to act on the matterof basic civic improvements. The crimerate had to be curbed, the parks had tobe saved, garbage collection was insuffi¬cient, and the public schools’ bond driveof $50 million was almost exhausted. Thenecessary action to arouse public interestand get some plans onto the drawingboard could be delayed no longer.“By April 1954 the Planning unit hadbeen established and staffed, with JackMeltzer, a top-flight planner, as its direc¬tor.”■mAreas selected for razingNext, where would reconstruction be¬gin? What sort of dwelling units would beerected on the sight of those razed? Itmust be recognized that a full 80 per centof the houses in Hyde Park were still inreasonable shape.“An acceptable redeveloper and to befound, and his plan for rebuilding the areahad to receive official approval. Challengedby the vitality of the community and theprestige of the University of Chicago, fiveredevelopers submitted plans in what theChicago Tribune hailed as an unprece¬dented display of interest by private capi¬tal. ‘No other project of this kind in theUnited States,’ said the editorial, ‘has everattracted this kind of competition.’In March 1957 the City council approvedthe plan of the New York real estate firmof Webb and Knapp, headed by WilliamZeckendorf. It had some changes from theredevelopment proposals approved by theCity council two years before.”The project area extended over 35.1acres, between 53rd and 57th streets andWoodlawn avenue to Lake Park. Webb andKnapp submitted a plan half of whichwas devoted to residential units—825 ofthem—one-third of the plans were forshopping and parking, and the rest forpublic and recreational area. All of thiswould take seven years to accomplish andwould be so extensive as to call for therelocation of part of 55th street.As for th.. relocation of people with theproposed project area, they would be com¬paratively easy to relocate, since the ma¬jority of them were white.“The findings of the National OpinionResearch center, which was engaged to do the job, were made public. Of the 892families in the project area (exclusive offamilies in rooming houses) 72 per centwere white, 18 per cent Negro, 6 per centOriental, and 4 per cent Mexican or PuertoRican; 4 per cent of the dwelling unitswere owner-occupied; there had been a 50per cent turnover of families in the pro¬ject area in the last two years, 25 per centhaving settled there within six months;45 per cent of the families had incomesunder $3,500 and another 29 per cent hadincomes between $3,500 and $5,000; of thefamilies eligible for public housing whowould be willing to accept such housing,112 white and 80 nonwhite indicated thatthey preferred to continue to live in HydePark.”The University’s South East commissionnow was spurred to quick action and choseJulian Levi as its leader.“In the person of Julian Levi, a dynamic,hard-driving, lawyer-turned-business exec¬utive, the commission found a directoradmirably suited to getting things done.Levi was a man of action as well as ofideas, a brilliant, quick-thinking operatorwho knew where he wanted to go, wasin a hurry to get there, and was not in¬clined to slow down for advice or direc¬tions.”Buildings next in sightToday the success of Levi, Meltzer, Mrs.Abrahamson, and all the residents of HydePark who have had a hand in this programis being told by the structures which arebeing constructed about campus.Webb and Knapp, Inc. has undertakenthe first such program of its kind in his¬tory. Every university which is close toan urban center is faced to some degree with the problem of blight. Webb & Knappis the first corporation to attempt a multi¬million dollar renewal program, about auniversity community. Construction of thehigh-rise apartment buildings, the townhouses, and the shopping center (see pic¬tures, top and bottom) is the realization ofthe Hyde Park plan A & B.The new co-op supermarket will openOctober 13. The new shopping center willopen in later months. A radical departurefrom the “strip”, type center, this will bedevelopment with all the stores concen¬trated about one central point for the con¬venience of shoppers. Within easy reachof campus, the plaza hopes to contain thevariety of the loop within walking di¬stance.Although no figure has been released 'yet, Webb and Knapp have offered thatsale price on the town houses will varyfrom $2,000 to $4,000.Residents of these new houses and apart¬ments will find within easy access a cen¬tral recreation area and children’s play- ‘ground. In the “residential square,” thereis a central plaza surrounded on foursides by garden patios of each home.About 240 of these town houses will beeventually completed. Many are filled atthis moment.The shopping center will cover 115,000square feet and contain 20 stores. Parkingareas will hold up to 500 cars. The Co-op,established in 1932, has over 3,000 mem¬bers and sells over $2.5 million annually.When the Hyde Park-Kenwood programis finally completed, the eyes of everyurban community in the US will watchfor the answer to the question, “Is largescale urban renewal possible?”Rear view of one of the most1 popular townhouses being built in HydePark.

J«ro»»oy PoW»n CAbmgd— Press,F1959; M>*Dr pelikan states the pur-rnost' of his book in thesewords: ".. . this book aims atan interpretation of RomanCatholicism that is sympa¬thetic and critical.” If all thestatements and passages sympa¬thetic to Roman Catholicism wereeuUed from this book and pub-f^hed in a separate volume, anyRoman Catholic reader wouldiffaid the volume a touching tes¬timonial to his faith In the set-ting, however, of Dr. Pelikan’s in-j terpretative criticism, these sym-i pathetic utterances lost much of(their warmth.Dr. Pelikan’s extremely fluidjtBo of terms deprives his inter¬pretation of much of its criticalI value. The critical reader mustcontinually ask himself what[ meaning Dr. Pelikan is applyingto a term in a given context. Such)key terms as “the church”, “cath¬olic’', “identity”, universality”,and even the term “Protestant”have no constant meaning. Infact, their meaning shifts continu¬ally and without warning. Thetheologically trained reader maybe able to shift with Dr. Pelikan;but I doubt that the generalWlJl«A corresponding inconstancy isnoted in the positions Dr. Pelikantakes. Chapters two and three re¬late how Christianity becameCatholic and specifically RomanCatholic. In chapter four the au¬thor tells us: "Roman Catholic¬ism has never been universal”(he has already stated that “iden¬tity” and “universality” are nec¬essary components ot Catho¬licity). His explanation tor thisstatement is: “the presence of theEastern churches has served asa reminder of that.” For severalreasons this is an extremely am¬biguous statement First, in apreceding chapter the author hasapparently rejected the geo¬graphic definition of universality;here he seems to hold it Second,the term “Eastern churches” canbe used either to indicate onlythe churches which maintainedorthodoxy, or it can include alsothe heterodox ones. If Dr. PelikanIs here using the former of thesemeanings, he is bypassing a thou¬sand years of history. For onethousand years East and Westwere united in one church. Thisb a period over twice the length>f time the Roman Catholic andhe Protestant churches have been separated The lasting breakbetween East and West did notoccur until the year 1064, underMichael Caerularius, Patriarch ofConstantinople. If Dr. Pelikan isusing the term “Easternchurches” to include such heter-dox churches as the Nestorians,Monophysites, Arians, etc., thisbrings up the even more delicatequestion of Dr. Pelikan’s defini¬tion of the term “identity”.On page 29 Dr. Pelikan says:“The church assigned to theologythe task of definition, which wasa means of clarifying its identityby combating heresy and defin¬ing the true Catholic faith in op¬position to heresy. . . . Thiswas not because the theologiansof early Christianity were un¬usually combative people, but be¬cause the primitive Christianmovement recognized that its bestweapon against the distortion ofapostolic faith was a precise def¬inition of its identity”. On page56 he says: “Catholicity is possi¬ble in a divided church”; and heis speaking of doctrinal division.Is orthodoxy needed for “iden¬tity”, or is it not? Dr. Pelikan isreally not clear on this point. Hewould seem to be saying in effect;Before the Reformation, yes;after the Reformation, no. Hesays: . . between that period(medieval times) and the presentthere is ‘a great gulf fixed’, whichprevents Roman Catholicism frombecoming what it once was. Thatgulf is the Protestant Reforma¬tion and the rise of the modernworld”. His statement about“equations” also seems to holdsome pertinence: “If the equationfor the earlier situation ought toread: Catholic church—RomanCatholicism+Eastern Orthodoxy,then the equation for the newsituation ought to read: RomanCatholicism — Western church —Reformation”.At any rate, we are assuredthat the Reformation had a sig¬nificant impact upon both theidentity and the universality ofthe church Catholic. Dr. Pelikansays: “If Catholicity means uni¬versality plus identity, it is muchmore difficult for Roman Catho¬licism to be really catholic thanIt was before the Reformation.. . . Protestant Christendom andRoman Christendom are bothhard put to define identity anduniversality and thus to maintaintheir catholicity.” At times Dr.Pelikan seems to accept a syn-cretistic definition of these terms;at others, to admit the futility ofsuch definition. Another UC parking lot bites the dust.In Part Three the author ap¬proaches much closer to objec¬tivity than he does in the othertwo parts. For this reason PartThree is distinctly superior, andcould well be published as a sep¬arate statement of the situationof Protestantism and RomanCatholicism vis-a-vis one anothertoday. In this part the authorsets down certain principles thatwould be accepted by RomanCatholics: that Protestants andRoman Catholics as professed fol-(Continued on page 28)Historian is disappointingby Christian MackauerThis is the first volume in a new publishing project with the slightly cacophonous title:The Centers of Civilization Series.

The play iscalled by the author a “blackfarce,” which would seem to implyeither wickedness or obscurity sodeep that not even scarlet letter¬ing will do for the programmingsheets. A parody of the one partysystem in Russian,x the play iswitty, funny, and has never beenseen before.Marvin Phillips, the director ofUniversity theatre in general aswell as of this first production,has announced that he intends toproduce three premier originalsthis year. Phillips claims thatthere is a great need for the pro¬duction of original plays, and thatthe college stage is both an ad¬mirable and a suitable place toaccomplish said production. So beit. The idea seems lovely, stimu¬lating and exciting—granted theworth of the plays produced.Also this quarter, UniversityTheatre is sponsoring a theatreworkshop. Anyone interestedshould inquire at the theatre of¬fice in the Reynolds Club. The in¬quiry will be easy, simple, andvaluable to make. Getting to thethird floor of the Reynolds clubto make it may prove a real chore.MusicOf course there are no concertson campus this week. There neverarc when you want them. Thereis however, opportunity to pur¬chase tickets for future concerts.UC concert series will includeprograms played by the Master-players of Lugano, a chamber or¬chestra, the Alfred Deller Trio,the Quartctto Carmirelli, (stringquartet) the Quartet to di Roma(piano, violin, viola and cello), theNetherland Chamber choir, andLevin and McGraw, piano duet-tists. Student season tickets forthe entire series will be availableat registration only for $5.00. Sim¬ilar season tickets will later boavailable for $0.00. Non-studentseason tickets are $8.00.The first concert this quarter,the Masterplayers of Lugano, willbe on October 23rd in MandelHall. The program will includeHandel’s “Alexander’s Feast,” aHaydn piano concerto, works byStamitz and Genzmer, and Mo¬zart’s Symphony in A major. The Alfred Deller Trio, com¬posed of Alfred Deller, counter¬tenor, Desmond Dupre, lute andviola da gamba, and Robert Con-ant, harpsichord, will performpieces by Dowland, Buxtehude,Purcell, and Handel, November13th.Single admission for the UCconcerts is $1 for students and $2for non-students.Various student musical organ¬izations will present concerts atunstated intervals throughout theyear. The Musical Society, theGlee Club, and the Symphony Or¬chestra, all affiliated with theMusic Department hold meetingsand concert to concert. The Apol¬lonian society meets weekly tosing madregals and other vocalworks, primarily Renaissance,presenting one concert a quarter.Wing-dings are thrown regularlyby the Folklore Society which alsohas brought in such noted per¬formers as Theodore Bikel andOdetta. Unfortunately none ofthese multifarious organizationsperforms or sponsors this week.ArtThe Joseph Randolph Shapirocollection will be exhibited soon,later to be available on studentloan. For further information seethe MAROON article on theShapiro exhibit.Probably the most ambitiousart group on campus is the Ren¬aissance society, which sponsorsseveral showings yearly in a firstfloor gallery in Goodspeed Hall.Occasionally the society showswindy tapestries or decrepit pot¬tery, but for the most part, theexhibits are well-planned andworthwhile.The first exhibit this year bythe Renaissance Society will be asurvey through color plates ofearly Christian and Byzantinemosaics from the 4th to 14th cen¬tury, The exhibit will open Octo¬ber 18th.Several exhibits were displayedin Lexington last year, includingan interesting showing of photo¬graphs and plans of modern Uni¬versity architecture. Also for thereally zealous art-hound, the Lex¬ington studio usually has severalstudent works lying around forthe looking, or snooping.Off CampusTheafreLast winter the Unitarianchurch began a community the¬atre in Hyde Park. The plays pre¬sented are controversial for the most part, by recognized play¬wrights. All performances havebeen arena style or three-quarterround, and have been arrangedto include audience-cast discus¬sion during intermission and afterthe performance.The Company of Four’s firstproduction this year, The ChalkGarden by Enid Bagnold will bepresented in Woolman hall of theUnitarian church on Friday andSaturday, October 9 and 10th, andSaturday and Sunday, October17th and 18th.The Chalk Garden is a highcomedy with a serious point, con¬cerned, according to some state¬ments with the conflict between“Convenient artificiality and hu¬man truth.” The play and charac¬ters are strange and interesting—often extremely witty.Tickets for the performancesare available at the Unitarianchurch. Seating is limited.The Independent Voters of Illi¬nois are sponsoring a theatrebenefit for the Wednesday, Octo¬ber 14th performance of Sunriseat Campobelio, the hit Broadwayplay currently running at theBlackstone.The play is a sympathetic bio¬graphical sketch of Franklin D.Roosevelt by Dore Shary, a mem¬ber of the board of Americansfor Democratic action. The Octo¬ber 14th performance is dedicatedto Eleanor Roosevelt on her 75thbirthday.Despite its somewhat nostalgicimplications, the play has re¬ceived rave reviews and is re¬putedly very decent. It starsRalph Bellamy as FDR.The Independent Voters’ ticketsare probably the only ones left.Ticket reservations may be madeby calling WE 9-3914 or by stop¬ping at the Independent Votersof Ill., 14 E. Jackson.The Goodman Theatre presentsyearly six open productions castfrom its students with guest stars. The first production thisyear will be The Merchant ofVenice. Nothing need be saidabout the play. If you haven’tread it, you should. Goodman’sproductions are always excellenttechnically; the theatre’s plant isfantastic. The acting is often un¬even, but performances are gen¬erally worthwhile.Art ExhibitionsThe grand old man of Chicago,the Art Institute, guarded by itstwo unartistic lions and uneventuck-point has a grand collectionof all sorts of things, including anewly-mis-framed “La GrandJatte.” Special exhibits this monthinclude a showing of photographyfrom the Art Institute’s collectionand gatherings of kimonos andAmerican quilts. There is also avery interesting exhibit of Jap¬anese prints in the Oriental gal¬leries which includes some excel¬lent contemporary wookblocks.The Findlay Galleries are show¬ing recent paintings by Dufy.The Feingarten Galleries displaya group show including works byBarrett, Rainey Bennett, Boyle,Guerreschi, Lentine, Lunak, Mar-tyl, Okamura, Pattison, and Spaz-zali.

In thebasement of the shop is a blondegallery which has contracted fora year long series of exhibits ofone-man shows — Munakata andAzechi — have been held to date.The next exhibit will open soon—the dates have not been explicitlyannounced. The prints are fas¬cinating, and the exhibits well-arranged. Certainly worth seeing —even if you hate Japanese art,a feeling which no person in hisproperly cultured mind could everadmit to.MusicAgain nothing this week. Theonly thing a music-lover or tune-daubler can do this week is listento radio. Much will suddenlybreak forth, however.The Chicago Symphony’s firstconcert this season will be givenOctober 15th and repeated Octo¬ber 16th.
