THE 1955 .'V' r J. CLIP and GO T he University of Chicago EDITORS5 PREFACE Yearbooks are usually static things. The same groups, the same activi- ties, often the same faces appear in every issue, year after year. Only the black-hordered dedication to some boodler who willed $3,000,000.00 to establish a foundation promoting good government and reverent reli- gion ever varies. The average annual also gives the impression that all is peaches-and- cream at dear alma mater. Only about the fat football player who tripped over his own shoelace on the five-yard line in the championship game, or about the neighborhood lavern-keeper who was caught watering the stock is there ever a hint of controversy. The yearbook, frankly, is different, as this campus is different. A universityeany universityeis alive, and often kicking. This one more so. This book recognizes that there are fundamental differences between Kimpton and Hutchins, between Democrats and Republicans, between I.S.L. and S.E.P., etc. Thanks to an enlightened policy on the extra- curriculum1 it does not hesitate to discuss them. 4 Michael J. F. Rogers Also, this yearbook attempts to pin-pointj highlight the outstanding events of 1954-55eth0se events which distinguish this year from all the others. In most annuals one may determine the year by measuring the receded hairvline of his favorite professor, or notingr the edition of his $8.75 required-reading textbook which the University press just pub- lished. Great events Occurred on this campus this year. Some of them-such as the opening of the ABA. Bar Center or the appointment of the first permanent F.T.S. Dean are milestones in the development of the Uni- versity. Othersrwsuch as a Chancellofs chance remark, or a good-bye party for all ex-Editor of Cap and Gown-will be trotted-out in future years Hike the family photograph albumJ laughed-at, discusset, then tucked away again. Cap and Gown is the family photograph album of the University of Chicago. It is a memoryiwof names, faces, events. But the Editors feel that it should serve more than this memorial function of traditional year- books. Cap and Gown. they feel, has an obligation to scrutinize. where stands the University, what events preceded its present position, what may be. ex- pected to follow from it. One current runs through every discussion of the University: the changes wrought by the Kimplon Ad- ministration. Often this discussion is marked by short-temper, epithets, myopia. This current is the theme of the 1955 Cap amt Gown. As in French law courts, it will be discussed without malice, without hatred, with- out fear. The discussion may he followed through a special introductory sec- tion viewing the overall aspects of the change in the extra-cun'iculum, and through the various other articles on the administration, curriculum, and extra-curriculum. It is too early to determine the accuracy of the prophe- cies and predictions, though, of course, there will he caustic comment from some segments of the campus. In discussing controversy, contro- versy can hardly be avoided. This, then, was 1954-55: PAUL A. HOFFMAN PEIICHAEL J. F. ROGERS Paul A.

That is the changing extra-curricular picture up to this year.

After watching a week which saw at least a half-dozen wilder-than-normal parties every night, some began to wonder whether the cam- pus had skipped that Ivy League spirit they desired, plunged rather into the raucous oomph Of the Big Ten. Their fears were not founded, hewever. As soon as the students, new and old, were once again caught- up in the maze of studies, classes, books, extra-eur- 12 ricular activities resumed their normal picture. But the normal picture in 1955 was different. If the stu- dents lacked the time to remake the campus, they at least gave support to those who were pushing it their way. The Student Government elections in October showed tperhaps onee-andwfor-aln that S.E.P. had failed to grasp the essential feelings of students on the campus.

Their aloofness was gone, the Greeks plunged into campus activity with a vengeance. No longer scorned, overlooked, forgotten, alert, competent leader- ship in the fraternities and clubs grabbed-off their share of the activities pie. The organizations them- selves were no longer willing to cast out a competent leader merely because he was a member of a frater- nity.

Organized, run by, in large part, indepen- dents, it failed to meet the needs of a changing campus.

Alone at the 01d organizations possessing any degree of security without changing was the Maroon. Where does this lead? Where will it stop? The question is as impossible to answer as: When did it begin? It is as easy to fmd two campus observers who agree when the spirit of Hutchins defmitely died as it is to find two historians who agree on the exact date In April a wry. mustached man sud; denly sprouted all over campus1 adver- tising 1hr.

Only the indi- cations are here, and the indications say that 1954-55 was the First Year of The Kimpton Regime. The campus has not yet acquired that striped-tie, Oxfm-d Grey look of the Ivy League, toward which it is so rapidly moving. As a few red-hrick buildings yet mar the uniform look of the llCity Creyf so a few students yet mar the uniform look of the Oxford Grey. It could be that the llCity GreyH student style will be discarded like last year7s model, to be re- 16 pieced by the white corduroy look of the Big Ten. One thing, however, is certain: Whatever the fol- lies, fads, failures of the extrecurrieulum, the Uni- versity of Chicago still holds hrst claim to the title of WThe Westernmost outpost of European culture. The students cherish, the world recognizes the worth, merit of the University. From Harper to Hutchins, through Kimpton to whomever he his successors, the intellectual honesty of the University of Chicago remains unchallenged. That bonded brother in pursuit of knowledge-remains the hallmark of the City Grey. ChesFthe Rnyal Canteestill drew students into its snares.

Albeit, the graying Chancellor had ended the previous session with his l'oot-in-moulh giquecrsh furor. But these past 11 months have shown the ability of Lawrence Alpheus Kimpton in its own light. For the hrst lime LAJX'. seemed to have a University to his liking. AH hie efforts have been directed toward three major problems, which, at initial encounter, were adequately expedited: l.

Cham- pion Ward. former Dean new in India with the Ford Foundation. The College In 1954, the University of Chicago program en- tered a new era, the era of h'Undergmduate Educa- tion. The tiCollegeh became a term which could he used only inside quotation marks. Its own fac- ulty continued to use it, students retain it from force of habit, but the University Administration elimi- nated, replaced it. Ht is of some signiiicance to note that when Kimpton was Vice-President, he returned a letter received from a new subordinate. He had underlined the word thundergraduate and marked in the mar- gin: tWife donit use that wordlait The change is more than semantic; it is part of a University-wide re-orientation in its own program. The HCollege, was an indispendent entity, the com- promise brainchild of Robert Maynard Hutchins, Mortimer Adler, Stringfellow Barr, etc., the contmu versial core of the University of Chicago's program of Liberal Education. It was a radical1 refreshing change among Ameri- can institutions: The impersonal voice of a series of placement tests determined the graduation require- ments of the individual student; class attendance for third and fourth-year students was non-compulsory; class sessions consisted of informal discussions with the instructor acting as a guide, a stimulus, with students expressing their interpretations of the dayis reading: a comprehensive examination at the end of 29 Cumbu lam .Lm-.

Cobb Hall, oldest University building, by ancient, erroneous student tradition was named for U. of Cfs hrst janitor. 30 the year, covering all material and work, alone determined the studentos grade; the staff itself consisted of teachers, free from research responsibilities or obligations of grading. Now have come new programs, integrating College, Divi- sions. Dean Streeter described these programs: LhStudents entering the University from now on will, in addition to receiving a substantial and integrated general education in the College, have an opportunity to include within their undergraduate course study in History, or Geology, or Botany, 0r Economies, or other special E61d8.,, He explained that the degree was merely gcrelocatedf, But the new programs came with a suddenness, were such a stark contrast to the old, that many students, faculty, alumni were frightened, wondered: uAre these new programs merely the first step in emaciating the Coliege?95 That answer is not yet known, nor will it be readily. For it is parl 0f the larger, yea, aIl-important question: hQuo vadis, Collegiumy, TO this question there can be no immediate answer, for the basic issues which brought the change were not primarily educational; they were psychological, economic.

When he left, they saw their chance: 111 a fury of spite, they wanted to destroy what he had built, raze it to the ground, sow salt on its soil 50 that it would never rise again. Whether these forces are now satiated is unknown, but it can be seen that much of the Alumni interest is in the extra-currieulum, football, frater- nities and Blackfriars in particular. But these elements were a minority unable to accomplish their tasks had not they powerful allies within the Univer- sity Administration. These keepers of the books, constantly reordering red ink, looked with dismay 0n the flgures of falling enrollment, were constantly searching a magnet to attract more students. A change of program was decided upon, but, strangely, little of the program itself was changed. In the city that was the College, the city limits were expanded to take in a few suburbs, a few streets given different names, and, in some instances, even a few buildings demolished. hIA rose by any other name:3 Shakespeare saideor in local terms: HCalling Hyde Park hEvanstong does not make its University Northwestern.

This; then, is the present position of the uunclergmduate programs. The thollege faculty controls slightiy over one-half the curriculum, Divisional facilities the remainder. But this situation cannot remain static, for the educationai philosophy of the thollegeag is directly opposed t0 that of some Divisions. Either these Divisions, using the pretext that the t;College,, is giving students :tinadequateh preparation, will make further encroachmems upon the tLCOHege't', pro- gram, or the tLCoUegea, faculty will re-assert its inde- pendence, demand full control of the undergraduate curriculum. Thus, the issue boils down to a power conflict be- tween the Divisions and the College? At stake in this battle is the University of Chicagojs philosophy of education.

CONTROLLED RELEASE OF NUCLEAR ENERGY Stagg Field Plaque commemorates chain-reaction on first atomic-piie which Enrice Fermi, col- leagues built amid wartime urgency, secrecy. Physical Sciences Of all the stars in the University of Chicagois galaxy of famed faculty none shone brighter than a slight, balding, humble physicist who uniocked the secret of the atom. Last autumne-h've days shy the 12th anniversary of the worldh first self-sustaining chain-reaction which he directedecancer claimed Enrico Fermi. During his brief 53 yeart lifetime, Enrico Fermi achieved honors equalled by none in his field: the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1938, the U. 5. Medal for Merit in 194-5, the first of a series of special $255000.00 citations tsubsequently retitled the Fermi 38 Awardi from the Atomic Energy Commission just a few days before his death. He achieved honors enough to turn the head of any man, yet he remained the same mild-mannered scien- tist with a duty to his work, a love of famiiy, a zest for life. His story is the traditional immigrantas tale wan adventure unique to America. For him the United States lifted high the torch, anti he, in return, gave it much for which the nation will be grateful eternally. This, then, is that story: Enrico Fermi was born, the son of a railway oHi- cial, in Rome, in 1901. As a schoolboy he read vo- Mrs. Fermi wrole a bestvselling bicrgr-iiphyr of her husband this year.

For these studies he was awarded the Nobel Prize. He chose the excur- sion to Stockholm as an opportunity to flee Musso- liniis Italy. The Fermis arrived in the U. 5. early in 1939. His temporary lectureship at Columbia Uni- versity was transformed into a permanent professor- shill. During this pre-war period, Fermi, other scientists became convinced of the possibilities of atomic explo- sion. These acientiets prevailed upon Albert Einstein to write his famous letter to President Roosevelt: iiSome recent work by E. Fermi and L. Szilard, which has been communicated to me in manuscript, leads me to believe that the element uranium may he turned into a new and important source of energy in the immediate future. . . . This new phenomenon would also lead to the construction of bombs, and it is coneeivabie-though much less certain-Jhat ex- tremely powerful bombs of a new type may thus be constructed?

Beneath the Stagg Field stands, he and his cohorts labored, building a strange doorknob-shaped spher- oid of granite blocks and uranium. On December 2, 1942eless than a year after Pearl Harboresuccess came: the first self-sustaining chain-reaetion was a reality. Arthur Holly Compton telephoned James Conant in Washington and announced: WThe Italian Navigator has reached the New World?, uAnd how did he find the natives?!, tVery friendly? Later Fermi went to Los Alamos, New Mexico where he. scientists from all over the world worked under J. Robert Oppenheimer building the three atomic bombs set-eff at Alamogordo. Hiroshima, Nagasaki. When the war ended, he returned to Chicago where the Los Alamos scientists convinced Chancellor Hut- chins to help create the three famed Research Insti- tutes. Always an indefatigable gadgeteer, Fermi was given a cyclotron to play with. later a syncro-cyelo- tron-the Erst such instruments to be located in the heart of a big city. The Fermis settled in Hyde Park, became a well- liked family in the community. One day Cyril Smith said to Mrs. Fermi, nee Laura Capon: mfen should write your husband,s biography? She replied: ccHe's K$ 11 xx the man I cook for and wash shirts for. How can I take him that seriously? Yet the book was written and it tALoms in the Family, University of Chicago Press 1954M proved to be a warm, intimate story of the scientisfs life. Someone congratulated Fermi on being apotheotized while he was Still living; after all, it was explainedt Mme. Curie was dead before her biography was writ- ten. c Fen misunderstand? Fermi replied. ttAhout me Laura could never write an apotheosis, she could only write a de-potheosis.H Yet the book was barely in the stalls before its subject was dead. Feeling ill, Fermi entered Billings Hospital last fall for a check-up. An exploratory operation was decided upon. but when the doctors saw the extent of his abdominal cancer. all they could do was sew him up again. The end came two months later. Praise for the humble physicist came from all over the world: Lewis Strauss- 'As much as any other individual, he is responsible for the achieve- ment of the controlled release of atomic energyf, Samuel K.

Enrico Fermijs death created a void in the Divi- sion of Physical Science not easily Filled. But the work of the Division went on. In 1954-55 it was a year of discovery, experiment, honorSe-as usual! ITEM. Betty Goodman, .91 Physics Department scanner, was ttcurious and excited?! when she saw the parallel rows of dots on the photographic plates she studied. According to her 13055, Dr. Marcel Schein of the Institute for Nuclear Studies, her emotion was justified: the unimposing dots were a photograph of a 10,000,000,000 volt explosion, supplying evidence for Schein's announcement that he had discovered the anti-proton. Scientists had long suspected the existence of the anti-proton tin laymank jargon: negative mattert Schein said he captured it in a packet of emulsions carried 100,000 feet over Texas earth by a Navy sky- hook balloon. Coming from outer-space, the anti- 42 proton tore into the packet and struck a proton, anni- hilating both particles. Scheinas announcement at the American Physical Society meeting in Seattle last Summer created a chain-reaclion in scientific circles, Czechoslovak-born physicistis name to be plastered across front-pages across the nation.

When Neo-Kantian Kimpton came upon the scene, he wisely decided to keep hands-off this volatile mass. 50 the Department has continued its quiet way, filling the ledger with modern poetry, records of ancient civilizations. strange languages and chroni- cles of the worldk literature. Dean Wilt himself was encouraged by three un- related events of the past year: increased and higher caliber enrollment. the success of the linguistic insti- tute, honors received by faculty. 1. INCREASED AND HIGHER CALIBER ENROLLMENT. Humanities enrollment is up. almost one-fourth above last year. The Dean noted that the general caliber of the students tgis the best weave had since the group that came in after the World War? tThis was a qualihcation of, tithe best wefve ever had.H He cited the comments of visitors to the Univer- sity who said that r'ithe large number of new and very good students is better here than anywhere else? 2. THE SUCCESS OF THE LINCUISTIC INSTITUTE. The eight week summer program of the first annual Linguistic Institute featured the theme: Linguistics and Philosophy. The highlight of the Institute, spon. sored jointly by the Division of Humanities and the Division of Social Sciences for the University 01 Chicago and the Linguistic Society of America were courses using the US. Armygs ihral-auralii method of teaching languages. Next summeris session, superintended by the 6er manies Departmentvs George Metcalfi will concen- trate on study of Far-Eastern languages. 3. HONORS RECEIVED BY FACULTY. The space is too short to note the many honors received by Uni- versity faculty, or even Humanities faculty. The list ranges from lodge citations to Nobel Prizes.

His appointment in January, 1954 was a surprise to many who knew him as an outspoken advocate of the I'lulchins Plan. His promotion was a surprise, also, but signified no policy changes. In October, 1954 British-educated geographer Chauncey D. Harris was appointed ActingvDean. Harris, a Russian expert, stated that he would con- tinue Crodzins-instituted projects, make no major policy changes.

The Committee liked: research-orientcd faculty, departmental orientation, public relations program, high caliber of students, facilities. Disliked: shifting of funds from general to specific projects. Warned: Treedom and high standarcis are endangered by a shift of financial support from general University funds to restricted hpmject, funds and the University tends too much toward making its new enterprises into permanent commitments? One important change unnoted by the committee was the reversal of educational policy in the Educa- tion Department. Early in the year Francis S. Chase, Department Chairman, announced two new programs: half-tuilion remittance for those students contracted for elementary or high-school teaching positions; a oneayear, seminar-type course to prepare teachers. These moves were not only a step to supplement Dapartmental enrollment, offset the nation,s serieus teacher shortage; they were part of the Department Of Educationk re-orientation in its own philosophy. Previously content to teach teachers of teachers the philosophy of teaching, it now teaches teachers. As usual with the Division, the big news in 1954-55 was made by the faculty: HERMAN FINER, of Political Science, took to the video waves in an educational sideshow, teaching Chicagohs hrst credit course over television. uGCHm-rn- ments and Human Nature, appearing weekly on WNBQE hLive and Learnaj Sunday mornings, was a pale, condensed version of Finefs regular quad- rangle course, Political Science 200 A.-B.-C.

Jeuck has resigned his post effective next fall for reasons undisclosed. Cox is heading the committee to determine his successor. During his stay, Jeuck aimed at striking a html- ance between the values of analysis and the neces- sity for deeisiveness and action. Says he: There are two extreme possibilities of the type of student product the Business School can produce: graduates marked by an offensive degree of naive self-eonfi- dence; graduates given to over-intellectualizing, in- capable of decision. Jeuck rejected both types, aimed at the median. In this aspect he fell right in step with Chancellor Kimpsods Hmicidle-way in educatiolf, program being established at Chicago.

Congress ended, they were joined by Fortier, Cliee Cray, others. Through the summer, through O-Week, in every meeting, in every class, l.S.IJ.3ers rebuilt their bridges.

When dinner was served, the guests numbered 14, including three representatives of the University Administration, two former emcers 0f S.U. who had severed their connec- tions. The remainder represented almost the whole working force of U. of Cfs leading sponsor of social, cultural, recreational activities. S.U., indeed, tra- veled far. The need for a well-co-ordinated social program had become increasingly evident with the post-war enrollment increase. In December, 194-7, several social groups united around a new nucleus, known as the Social Committee of the University of Chicago, and organized S.U. This newly-formed body received student support, its ranks swelling, its events, suc- cessful. S.U.,s growth continued: in 1948, according to Association of College Uniorfs survey, it presented the third largest recreational program in the nation. 70 Dale Levy, last S.U. President, sips Wassail at S.U.!s Annuai Was- sail Party in Ida Noyes Library. Student Activities Council By 1952, however, enrollment dropped; the nature of the student body changed. Although students were more socially minded, S.U. activity declined alarm- ingly. The Union perforce revised its organizational structure, attempting to regain campus support: areas of responsibility were more clearly defined, a hve- man Executive Board established to co-ordinate com- mittee functions. But decline continued: one event after another failed, students displayed no interest in serving the Union. As personnel became more scarce, events became less succesaful. The vicious circle spun, moving at a furious pace. This difiieulty in recruiting workers extended by 1954- to the higher echelons: positions on the Execu- tive Board fell open, replacements lacking, experi- ence totally absent. The top leadership were leaders in name only: they displayed no conception of stu- dent social activity, no competence to expedite a program. All attempts at eo-ordination failed. Fi- nally came the Dinnerethe last hope. Confronted with the fact that the total working force numbered a dozen, S.U.

This, Director Arthur Kiendl suggested, was a prob- lem not adequately solved-Fnow 0r never-within existing framework. What was required, he believed, was the elimination of the parallelism, grown over the years1 between S.U. and many small campus organizations, to be replaced With a eo-Ordination of Student aetivities-n0w non-existentein a single monolithic organization. Kiendl induced Miss Levy to push for dissolution of the Union, which came March 1. In a Macchia- vellian-move, S. U. was replaced within minutes by a specially selected board, called the Student Activi- ties Council.

Student Government angered at being left out, declaring itself the only representative, all-campus organization, de- 72 mended, received two-representatives 0n the com- mittee. KiendPs plan had backhred. He had especially wanted to keep the upoliticians,7 out of S.A.C., with- out realizing that the post-war history of student organizations has been provided by the itpotitieians? Within minutes, the politicians had moved-in, as- sumed the leadership. ttPolitieiant, George Stone was elected chairman. Kiendl, the other members of the reevaluation committee had been prepared ta help set S.A.C. on its feet. But five minutes after the first S.A.C. meet- ing was called to order, a crowd had gathered out- side the Reynolds Club Fishbowl where the Board sat, then wended into KiendPs omce to voice their protests. Kiendl was overwhelmed: he had thrown the students a new bone of contention, and wondered how clean they would pick it. Joan Raphael samples the punch as President Levy serves.

The Union Year During Orientation erek, the Student Union sponsored events were 50 successful, that. there was little hint of the trouble that would later lead to 51.195 collapse. SUE 0-Week picnic was, as always, one of the high points of OuWeek. In spite of the already chilly autumn wind, Hutchinson Court was filled with entering students who roasted hot-dogs, munehed on apples, and heard a song-reeital by Kappa Alpha Psi. A week later, the Union sponsored the Chancelleras Reception and Dance, which was flooded with old and new students delightedly turning out for the first campus event that gave the girls a chance to wear itdressy Clothes, in addition to the chance to shake the Chancellor's hand for what might be the only time until gradu- ation. It was a roaring success. Even then. though, the Union was beginning to shake a little. There was a small Union Board almost perenially in a state of nervous collapse from overwork. There were times when it seemed as though the whole Union Board consisted of Jan Metros and Joan Raphael. These two planned the dances, silk-screened the publicity, scurried about campus putting-up the publicity en seemingly numberless bulletin boards, decorated, supervised the dance. How much the Union depended on these two became painfully apparent when they both ran in the Student Government election and were unable to devote their full energies to the preparation for the Danse Macabre. Be- cause of the inactivity of the rest of the Union, the dance was cancelled. Having failed to increase its active membership, the Union had to do one of two things: resign itself to its members Hunking out of school or elase up shop. In view of the fact that said members were first and fore- most students, the latter decision was; made. ublica lions .1955 Cap and Cown Mivhawl .I. F.

Almost alone among student organizations, he explained, the Maroon. had failed to keep step with a changing campus. His hopes, however, were not realized. The Maroon. was a victim of its own inertia: unwilling, unable to change itself. As Janger explained, mfmfve got to work with people, the people with whom he was working were products of the 01d order. In one respect, Jangefs Maroon was a vast im- provement over his predecessors-5 productiOHSead- vertising. Issues of the Maroon were larger, filled with more ads. For the first time in three years a 20 page issue came OH the press, while other weeks featured 12 and 16 pages contrasted with the 4 and 8 which were the rule before. News coverage suffered from lack of eo-ordination, though a greater effort was expended toward creation of a united news editorship. The net result was often a paucity of news eopyeusually tilled by the Man- aging Editor's Exchange Student Theory 0? Solving U.S.-Soviet Relations. On several occasions the News Editor. screamed, begged, pleaded with her staff to find more stories. Yet many important developments tag; the election of U. of C. faculty members to the U. 5. Senate, SheriHss OHiee, the appointment of new Deans in F.T.S., Divinity School, Chancellor Hutchins3 visit to campus, speeches by Allen Dulles, William 0. Douglas, Stephen Mitchell and others of equal fame to law student groupst went uncovered. Writing quality remained at low ebb. Dull, 0b- tuse. repetitious, ungrammatieal sentences often crept into print. Originality was seldom to he found: press releases were inserted with a minimum of re- writing. When Janger wrote a eulogy of Enrico Fermi, he generously plagerized the Sun-Times, the Photography Editor twriting 0n the same subjeett showed better tastee-he paraphrased The New York Times. Much of the fault for sloppy writing can be traced to an ancient handicap which has consistantly plagued the Maroon: failure to enforce deadlines. Copy arrives barely under, or after.- the wire with- out time for checking as regards style, grammar or fact. Sloppy writing also results. from a failure to train staff members properly; often new arrivals are given important assignments the moment they enter the office. 0n the Feature Page sloppy writing results from muddled thinking. The Feature Editor, when not reading Karl Marx and Margaret Sanger, devoted whole pages to Soviet Films playing at West Side movie house, or to other elements of itpeopleas cul- ture. in this respect the Maroon was conservative: u.

Only on the Sports Page was any of the tire of the previous year retained. 1Vivid writing, excellent pictures and cartoons for illustration, as well as a fine sense of make-up tunlike the wild theories of Ethorizuntalisma and Hvibrant diagonalismw which pervaded the rest of the paperteall combined to make the Sports Section the most readable in the Maroon. The fact that the Sports Editors and their stat? knew of what they wrote was no handicap. Photography, also, showed marked strides for- ward. A new engraver helped reproduction quality, which still suHered from the cheap grade of paper, ink the Maroon used. Best jump came with the estab- lishment of a Photographic Stan of proper compe- tence, imagination: as well as a properly equipped darkroom borrowed from University Theatre. The basic difheulty with the Maroon, this year as in the past, has been the delusion that the Maroon can be a democratic debating society as well as a press organ. Editorials, news stories and even head- line types are made the basis of staff discussion be- fore they find their way into print. The staff spends more time debating than in reporting, uneevering news. The Editor himself was not of this opinion, but he was unable to rise above it. Only the irregular 84 The Beaux Arts Ball brings some horscplay to Photographer Janger as he shoots Felicia tPat Wardt Anthnnalli and Paul tYoung, but oh! 325.00J HotTman.

Janger and Managing Editor Bur, bach criticize the weeks issue. printing of Editofs Colummwtoo often dashed off at the last momenthhetrayed the fact that the Editor had anything to say about the affairs of the paper. The root is constitutional. The Maroon constitu- tion was created when the Editors, staff were wide- eyed, narrowvminded radicals with an orientation toward Moscow rather than 5801 Ellis. Their prod- uct has hamstrung subsequent staffs. While there was unified staff opinion, it worked effectively. Now, when there is not, it has stifled editorial decision, tended to elect weak Editors. A newspaperwlikc a symphony orchestrawis, by its nature, tyrannical. A strong man is needed at top. On the Maroon such a strong man was lacking. In 1951 the Dean of Students removed a Red Editor, but left untouched the Maroon, organization. The uproar caused then made it seem unlikely that it could be done again, but the ease with which Arthur Kiendl uprooted Student Union subsequent re-evalu- ation of the extra-curriculum, shows that 1955 might be the staffs last chance to create a campus-wide Maroon. 85 86 The Stafi of lhe Chicago Review. Ediior Karmatz declined to be photographed. Chzbago Review The Eiterary magazine of the University of Chicago became the nationhs largest hlitlle', magazine in 1955. But the Chicago Reviewalso seemed unable to resolve its persistent conflict: whether it would be'a hfnationalh magazine or a Hcampusa7 one. In other words, would its contributions be from outside or student sources. Editor uChip'a Karmatz, who produced some excellent publications, made a Solomon-like decisinn: revieWS. some poetry were student contributions; articles, hclion from outside sources. Greatest interest was shown in achieving a rapport between the concepts through articles by such campus Egures as Reuel Denney and Mark Kennedy which also appealed to the outside readership. Law Review The University of Chicago Law Review is a schol- arly journal, published quarterly by second and third year Law School students. Major articles contributed by law professors, judges, Outstanding attorneys; comments on legal problem areas written by student members of the Review staff; book reviews form the major content of each issue. The Review thus pro- vides a current critical commentary on the develop- ment of law for lawyers, as well as an intensified program of legal writing for student staff members. This year the Law Review has devoted particular attention to such areas as the development of a new test for insanity in the criminal law, Professor Cross- kefs views on the 14th Amendment. Student work has ranged from critical examination of compulsory health insurance programs tn comment on cumulative voting provisions involved in the Montgomery Ward battle. In addition to its regular activities, the Re- view this year acted as host for the hi-annual conven- tion of the National Conference of Law Reviews, held in April 011 the campus.

The purpose of the Festival, said the invitation, was to present the best of Chicago students in the major camps activitieSesocial, athletic, and cultural. It was little expected that the Festival would become a mock battleground, for the rah-rah and intellectual forces on the campus. Oblivious to derogatory shouts of ctRah-rahl,u eollegiate-looking student-workers on the Festival bedecked quadrangle lamp-posts with bright red and white fluttering streamers. At night, they bounced happily through fraternities, dormitories, and the libraries in cestumes that were sometimes scanty to advertise the Beaux Arts Ball. Again they were greeted with llRaherahl. though the phrase was said more cheerfully. They stopped long enough to whistle 0r giggle at the large sculpted nudes which appeared in Hutchinson Court. One day they pa- On Thursday, April 14, the Festival opened with an Arts and Crafts fair at Lexington Hall which drew some four hundred art loverSethe Festival was well on its popular way. Attendance tigures at scheduled events were phenomenal fer a campus whose apathy is complained of loudly: 700 at the Willima Carlos Williams lecture, 800 at the Festival of the Nations. Art unprecedented 100 cheered the Chicago team at a track meet. One of the most popular events was the Beaux Arts Ball where 500 masked people danced in Hutchinson Commons. For the first time in what seemed like eons, the campus had turned out as a united b0dy--it seemed as though the atomization which had typitied the campus had been replaced, at least. for the four days of the Festival. Associate Professor in the College Gerhardt E. 0. Meyer was the man who made the suggestion out of which the Festival grew. His view is that with the College curriculum being split, campus cohesiveness would have to be achieved through the social activi- ties on campus. He felt the old dichotomy between rah-rah and intellectualism would pass if a common, all-campus social and intellectual meeting ground could be found.

Besides their regular Sunday Choir duties at Rockefeller Chapel, they tlid two major works this year. accompanied by the Chicago Symphony Orchestra. One was the Christmas Concert performance of Handel's Messiah; and for the Palm Sunday concert, in contrast to the Passion According to Saint John1 which they had done last year, they did Bachas The Passion According to Saint Matthew. The latter performance was broadcast to the whole Chicago area over WEFM, and the Liniversity station, WUCB, inaugurated their Sunday afternoon broadcasts by covering the Palm Sunday performance at Rockefeller. 98 The Concert Band in their new unir forms. All that was missing from Band activity was Big Bertha, their huge re- tlred drum. Concert Band The Concert Band, yet to give a concert, was re- formed only in 1953. Its activitieSein the maine consist of playing at U. of C. basketball games, three this year. In 1955 the Band aimed at: U building member- ship, 2t winning recognition. Both goals have been fulhlied to a certain extent. Membership, now num- bering 25, is evenly balanced, though weighted toward brass. WUCB recordings, basketball per- formances, a planned concert in the Spring have placed the Bandjs name before the University Com- munity.

Chamber Music Society The Chamber Music Society, under the direction of Mr. Leland Smith, was organized three years ago to encourage the performance by students of chamber music. They have also tried to stress unusual modern music including the Midwest premiere performances of Stravinskyjs EtSeptet 19537 The main body of performers have been made up of University students and faculty, and other musicians in the Chicago area frequently have contributed to their concerts. The programs are always presented in an informal man- ner, for then chamber music is heard to best advan- tage. Throughout this year 1954-65 the Chamber Music Society has given ten concerts, performed Sunday afternoons in the library of Ida Noyes Hall. 100 Clea Club Under the new and abte direction of Mr. Peter Swing, also known as a favorite instructor of Hu- manities I, the University Glee Club has had another good year. Though the Glee Club started as a small informal group of people interested in music, it has gradually been expanding until this year when they had a membership of about Fifty-hve people. They have given three major concerts this year; a winter concert, an appearance for the Alumni Association, for the Alumni Weekend, and a Spring Concert which was given in connection with the Festival of the Arts. The Glee Club has spent most of their time this year working on sixteenth and seventeenth cen- tury English music, plus doing some masses and folk songs. Collegium flffusz'cum The Collegium Musicum is the student orchestra, compt d of amateur mus-tiam from every part of the University, under the general dirPc n of Mr. Richard Vikslrom. This year they have given about three concerts each quarter, some on Sum 1:. in Bond Chapel, the Others were. performed in Leon Mandel Hall.

Rockefeller Memorial Chapel uAs the spirit of religion should penetrate and control LThe University of Chieagoi so that building that represents religion ought to be the central and dominant feature of the University group? This dream expressed by John D. Rockefeller was fut- Hiled this year by the newiy-instaiied evening lighting sys- tem 0n Rockefeller Memorial Chapel. Both by day and night this Gothic structure is the central religious symbol on campus, stimulating facuity and students alike to a ma- ture faith, involving sound thinking and the courage to act. Under the direction of the Dean of Chapel Rev. John B. Thompson and Associate Dean Wallace W. Robbins, this aim is exemplifled in the Chapel every Sunday morning, and at special service with guest preachers at other times. This religious spirit of the Chapel is also carried out in the program of sacred music and in its concern with the relation of religion and the arts. The University Choir, directed by Richard E. Viekstrom, sings at all Chapel wor- ship services, presents quarterly concerts in the chapel. Dr. Heinrich Fleischer, Chapel Organist, presents special pro- grams at various times during the Year, as does James R. Lawson, Chapel Carillonneur, who presant recitals every Sunday in the Chapel tower on the 72-bell carillon, one of the largest in the world. Under Pierre D. DeLattreis Chairmanship, the Chapel House Committee on Religion and the Arts sponsors a varied pregram throughout the year. Chapel House, adjoining the Chapel, is also directed by Dean Thompson; serves to co- ordinate the activities of Protestant students on campus; houses the OHiCCS of several Protestant pastors, religious or- ganizations.

This select groupethough who does the selecting has never been adequately determinedkarrives early in Autumn, prepares a program of tours, parties, bull-sessions for new students. Headed by James Rosenblum, this yeafs group had a special responsi- bililyeaccomplished in properly Orienting many younger students who arrived on campus a little afraid of Chicagds intellectual reputation, quite a bit happy about their new-found freedom. How this orientation was accomplished was never adequately determined either. 110 Student Advisory Board Encouraging good students to come to the University has received the enthusiastic student touch through the activities of the Student Advisory Board. The members of the S.AB. are U.C. students interested in spreading the good name of the Universitfs undergraduate education. During the last two years, more than sixty volunteers have helped and advised Mrs. Ruth 0. McCarn, Assistant Dean of Students, making personal contacts with college prospects. Each vacation, S.A.B. members make personal visits in their home areas to high school students who have asked about the University. Receptions for these students were held in Boston, Washington, Chicago and other cities during the last Christmas interim. Last summer, the Board tried to call, write or visit each member of the Fall entering class, giving unofficial information and a welcome to the University. qt is a real credit to a university that so many students want to share their enthusiasm for it? Mrs. McCarn has said. ttAnd, the hard work of the S.AB. people is having its effect. Not only does their personal approach help maintain applicants, interest, but many students now tell us that they first learned about Chicago education from a member of the Student Atl- visory Board? Terry Lunsford points out Mitchell Tower sights to prospective students in one of a series of S.AB. tours of the campus last Spring. l: t 111 Ralph Henkle makes a telling point in his argument: ttResulvedt that Fratermlies an;- better than tztnrmimries.u Debate was one uf many English style debates held in Bel, Reynolds Club lounges. Student Forum A r-apacity crowd throngs to International House auditorium for the University at Chlcago-University of London debate. sTwas truly a big year for Student Forum. The U. of C. debaters engaged in 130 intercollegiate contests, Wending as far afield as Harvard, Brown, Columbia, NY. U., Georgetown to find competition. The team appeared in 11 tournaments where it fre- quently met Big Ten schools, such opponents as Dartmouth, Boston U., Texas, Kansas, Missouri, Kentucky. Consisting of about 25 people, the SF. team scored victories in roughly 70 per cent of their matches. At home, in addition 10 visits from Big Ten Schools, US of London, Pennsylvania-S.F. insti- tuted a new program of intramural debates. Starting in Winter, debates were held Thursday afternoons in Reynolds Club South Lounge before audiences vary- ing between 60 and 100. Held English-style, the audience was free to interject comments, opinions. Hence the debates oft bore the appearance of bear- baiting exhibitions. A good time was had by aile especially the debaters, chosen for their ability to withstand abuse. Such estimable institutions as the CvShop, Hulchins Plan, U. of Cfs athletic purity came under Fire in the course of these debates. The program was so suecessful that early in April, a sec- oml series was begun Tuesday evenings in B.-J., drawing audiences of 50 and upwards. The yearis highlight was a visit from the Univer- 5in of London debating team. Before an aut'ljence of 500 in Internaliunal House, the British debaters argued successfully that freedom of Speech was decreasing in the, US. Another oH-shool, Student Forum of lhe Mr, appeared weekly over W.U.C.B.

McCarn, as the groupie, adviser, meets with the members, takes a full role of Nu Pi activity. The group's social function has declined in the past year: for the first time in more than a decade they did not hold their annual dinner with Owl and Serpent. However, the group continues to demand of its members the best of Nu Pi tradition, the full meaning of its secret motto: HFor Chicago, I Will. N11 Pi Sigma.

Owl and Serpent The Honor Society for Graduate Men, Owl and Serpent stands distinguished from other University honor societies by two characteristics: D it has a permanent meeting room, 2t it maintains, in the truest fraternal sense, active reiationships between present members and alumni. 0. and 5.75- club rooms in Mitchell Tower are fur- nished with a modern plush, consist of two chambers ea meeting room for members, guests; the Hsane- mm sanctomm for-members-only. O. and S. re-vitalized its alumni relations through the publication of the t:0. and S. Letter Book? their first in 1-4- years. The Letter Book, containing infor- mation of all living society alumni, mailed to these alumni, recorded in addition the state of the extra- curriculum at Chicago. 121 Iron Mask Originally the honor society for junior men, Iron Mask has subsequently expanded 10 lake. in freshmen and Hsophomores? replacing the now defunct Simlf and Crescent to include full range of undergraduate honoraria.

Wrestler-coach Al Bates, who took charge of his team after regular coach Antonaeei left two years ago, qualifies for his Masterls degree this spring, leaving the post vacant. T. N. Metcalf's limited athletic bud- get makes it unlikely that he will appoint a regular professional in Hates;9 place7 and so one of the vet- eran team members will probably get the job. Other posts will remain as they are. Athletic Di- rector Metcalf goes into his twenty-third year on the Midway. An Olympic Executive Board member, he came to Chicago as replacement for the ELgrand old man Amos Alonzo Stagg. The stall that he. has gathered around him will continue with their present sports. In spite of Acro- theatregs suspension for one year, Erwin F. alBudal Beyer, a national champion gymnast as an under- graduate, will teach tumbling technique 10 his gym- nastics team. Ted Haydon will attempt to continue his excellent record as cross-country and track coach. His Track Club, which has grown steadily since its birth in 151, may reach national stature in 255-756. Nelson ll. Norgren, one of Chicagojs very few tinselve-tiC,e men when an undergraduate, heads into his thirty-fourth year with UC basketball. Assisting him in basketball and coaching baseball is Kyle Anderson, like Bates, Beyer, Haydon, Norgren, and JV basketball coach Joe Stampf a graduate of UC. Alvar Hermanson, a graduate of 3 Stockholm Gymnasium, is in charge of soccer and fencing here. One of the best fencing coaches in the United States, he was named Olympic coach for the war-cancelled games of 1940. Neither of the remaining stall members gradu- ated from the Midway either. Oberlin is the Alma Mater of intramural director Kooman Boycheff. Swimming and tennis coach William Moyle Went to school at LaCrosse tWisconsinl State Teachers, and came here by way of Iowa Stale and USC. With the exception of Bates, these men will con- tinue their competent coaching and instruction to tyro athletes in the year to come. The 1955 Coaching Stafl: Seated: Nelson Norgrcn. Joe Stampl.

Captain Billy Lester set a new individual scoring record with 357 points in the 19 game season, averaging 18 per game. Dick Rowland also showed well for the Maroons.

Minor Letters were given to Joe Feinberg, L011 Hamilton, Jim Strawn, Dick Thompson. With the exception of Hamilton, all these men are eligible next year, to return, give Coach Nelson Nor- gren the making of a winning squad. Coach Kyle Anderson shows UH timv-honored trophies to entering students in Bartlett Gym trophy room. Track Track remained the outstanding major sport dur- ing the spring of 154 and the winter of 355. As usual, :1 number of good runners who had competed a while for other schools before being attracted by Chica- go's academic reputation turned out for the team in 055. Joined with the track and field men developed by Ted Haydon on the Midway, they made a truly formidable team. But a home-grown hurdler and dashman, Frank Loomos, walked off with most of the honors in 055 just as he had the year before. He dominated track in the way Walt Deike had dominated cross cauntry. Winning at least three events in most meets, he seems certain to win the William A. Bond medal again this year. Newcomers included ace middle-distance men Chuck Rhyme and Ted Fishman. They helped set a new indoor mile-relay record with Lowell Hawkin- son and freshman Jim Brown in March. Paul Baptist, Jim Flynn, and Art Omohundro continued to win many points in the distance runs, aided by Ray Sanders. In the weights, it was Joe Howard, 3 consistent winner, and Roger Forsyth, consistently placing behind him. Dan Trifone, Dewey Jones, and Mitch Watkins helped Loomos in hurdle events' And many other runners and fieldmen provided the depth to help get those all-important second and third place points. The UC Track Club also continued to grow and prosper. Miler Phil Coleman, half-miler Bill Con- rardy, miler Lawton Lamb, and others combined with the regular team to win the Central AAU meet, The finish of the two mile shows Chicago's Paul Baptist breaking the tape in what is almost 21 dead-heat. but ofTwials credited Central runner with the win. and to engage in several open meets. The Track Club lost to the University of Illinois in a meet reminis- cent of Chicagots Western Conference days. Three of the big open meets, the Holiday Open, the Chicagoland Open, and the Chicago Invitationat were sponsored by the Club and staged in the field- house. Two worlds records were tied in the Invitae tional tTerrill Burton of Miami, Ohio sped the 70 yard lows in :07.8 and Abe Butler of Baldwin-Wal- lace turned :06.1 in the 60 yard dasht and big names from all over the midwest entered all three of the meets. Club members also did very well in the Daily Newa Relays, Chicagoas only traditional indoor track carnival. Colemarfs second place behind American record holder Wes Santee in the aBnkers, Mile was outstanding. Bob Kelly and Lawton Lamb ran the two-mile and 1,000 yard run respectively. A mile relay team and Loomos in the hurdles completed UC performers. Half-way through the two mile race against Central Michigan it's Jim Flynn leading the pack. INDOOR SEASON.

Wrestler-coach A1 Bates, a student of Keals and Chaucer, let drop a phrase that was picked up by every UC publica- tion and many students. UEvery man a tigerh, im- pressed everyone except the wrestlers themselves, who proved less than ferocious before several foes. In fairness lo the team, they met tough competi- tion with a small squad, and did well for themselves, all in all. Their best effort came in downing Mar- quette, 18-16, in an away meet in January. The win avenged a 17-18 loss to the same team one year before. John Shafer opened the meet by losing a hard fought bout to his opponent. Don Donderi proved more tiger-like winning hrst on a forfeit and then 11-4 in an exhibition. Kent Flannery continued by whipping the Marquette team captain. Coach A1 Bates showed that he could both teach and do his specialty by pinning his man after two and a half The Wrestling Squad Front row: Dan Bitter, PlayeeroaL-h Allan Bates, Don Donderi, Kent Flannery. Second row: Chuck Carlson, Frank Richards, Jerry Mehrens, Lynn Illingsworth. 134 minutes. Owen Bennett and Norm Cook lost close matches, but heavyweight Lynn lllingworth pinned Marquettek man. UCS other heavyweight, Jerry Mehrens, won by a fall in another exhibition match. Besides coach Bates' tiger idea, several interest- ing aspects of wrestling emerged during the year. One was the weight-losing program that all except heavyweight grapplers must go through if lhcy are over their classification by more than two pounds. All overweight wrestlers must follow Mayo's lwo- weck diet, a diet that is llharmless for two weeks, but not for longer? It is high-protein, with lots of eggs, grapefruit, and steak. Another aspect was the growth of stubble and short beards in order to scare off head holds. No one, it seems, likes to wrestle a porcupine, particu- larhr one with delusions of tigerhood. Since Al Bates completes his Masterls require- ments this year, Athletic Director T. Nelson Metcalf must find a new coach. Wlhether it will be an outside professional or one of the team, as Bates was, has not been decided. Whichever it is, the new coach will have. a hard time producing a season as liter- arily successful4from reviews in Cap and Gown to the UC Alumni Magazine-as this one has been.

Ernie Dunslon did well in the bouts he appeared in, but a knee twisted in the. first meet of the year hampered his efforts at rudeness. Mike Fain, Illi- nois high school foil champion with the Junior Var 5in last year, and Jay Levine, who also fenced foil, were the chiefs aids to the inhospitality of Shane and Dunstan. 136 As'strange shadows move about the walls two fencers practice lhell' thrusts, Iungw, parties in Bartlett Gym.

The major sport of the Autumn Quarter for the intramural program is touch football, a seven-man game, with all the rules of football except tackling governing the game in the Independent and Frater- nity Leagues, modified rules which eliminate block- ing for the College League. Competition was keenest this year in the College and Independent league, but a. strung Psi Upsilon team mettle a shambles in the Fraternities League. The College League saw a repe- tition of last yearls Linn-Coulter rivalry, with a re- versal occuring as Coulter won in a thrilling show- down game. Both teams came into the game, the last of the season, with spotless records; both teams put on a marvelous display of skills that saw the game end in a tie after the regulation playing time, Coul- ter to persevere after two tight overtime periods, 30-24.

Meanwhile, the Independent league had ended in a tie between Salisbury House and Alpha Kappa Kappa. In a. playoff filled with thrills A.K.K. won out 13-12, as they were led by Jack Oberhelman. In the playoffs for the University championship Psi U. defeated first AKK and then Coulter. The winners had an extremely well-balanced team, with back- field stars Ralph Lazarra and Wendell Maramoto particularly good all through the season. While the football season was going strong, the intramural program also sponsored competition in both tennis and table tennis. The tennis tournament, played on an elimination basis, ended in victories for Coulter and Psi U. again, as well as Hitchcock in the Independent league. Hitchcock also won their league title in the table tennis competition. 139 1m informal game of volleyball draws the attentinn of these athletes nn rnurl behind 3:1.

The Autumn Quarter closed with the annual pre-season all-univet'sity basketball tournament, an elimination tournament participated in by all the interested or- ganizations on campus. In the finals, Coulter won again, staving of? a last minute rally by the Aces, an informal organization of men who had played to- gether with the Shimer University varsity team. Coul- teris overall height, and the scoring of Dewey Jones and Paul Baptist, were too much for the well-bal- anced Aces. who were led by Kent Karohl. The major sport of the Winter Quarter was bas- ketball. There was relatively little competition in any of the leagues, with all the winners emerging with undefeated records. Vincent, led by fine overall rebounding strength, and the fine play of Roy Lavik and Don McClintoek, took the College championship. The Fraternity league was blemished by the fact there were more forfeits than games played, as the teams saw very little point in competing with a Psi U. powerhouse that bowled over all opposition and had no trouble taking the title. The entire team played very well throughout the season, although lack of competition prevented them from ever reach- ing the peak of their abilities. Despite this, Bruce Colby, Art Antonik7 Lazarra, and Maramoto usually In Field House student tests his gun eye.

The Independent league was rela- tively simple for the Barristers, an informal or- ganization of Law School students, the finest intra- mural team ever seen at this university. The Winter Quarter also witnessed the annual track meet, with Coulter and Psi U. successfully de- fending their titles. In the college meet, the better of the two interims of performance, three meet records were broken. There were also all-university organization tourna- ments in squash, handball and badminton during the Winter Quarter. The squash tournament was won by Psi U., whose victorious team was composed of Gerry Czamanske, Al Shane, and Dan Trifone. Lew Lip- Sitz and Bob Heavilin led the Linn team to the hand- ball ehampienship. Last Spring, in volleyball, Phi Sig won the Fra- ternity league, barely heating Psi U., Beecher, led by the outstanding performances of Pat Hyer, took the Independent league, and a well-balanced Mathews team, led by George Stricker and Norm Cook, sur- prised Coulter and won the College league.

In Softball, the Springs major sport, Psi U. again As Harper Towers stand guard the Coulter team readies its defense for the Linn attack in an intra-murai game. dominated the Fraternity league, and Chamberlin, led by slugging Jim Fencil, won the Independent championship. A surprising Mathews team made it two upsets in a row, going undefeated through regu- lar league play and defeating the faculty handily in a postseason game. The teamis outstanding point was balance, huilaing a welluorganized team around the nucleus of Neal HuHacker, Leon Rosenberg, Joe Zerholio, Cook and Stricker. In the University cham- pionships Psi U. slaughtered Chamberlin, and then took the title from a stubborn Mathews team with five runs in the ninth inning, 14-9. Psi U. was led to victory in the finals by Bob Dunkel, Art Antonik and A1 Shane.

Council is organized for the purpose of eo-ordinating and regulating the activities of the ten tone-Kappa Alpha Psienot at present recog- nizedt fraternities on campus, both with respect to each other and t0 the University Community in general. The activities of the Council this year were di- rected toward consolidating, strengthening the free ternity system here on the campus. In an effort to strengthen both the Council and the system, a new constitution was written; the rushing, pledging sys- tem completely overhauled. The future of the fraternity system looks very bright. The efforts of the Council paid-off this year with a nearly 100 per cent increase in pledging. Strength was alsn shown in the increasing role fra- ternity men played in student activities. Groundwork was also laid for new fraternities to come on campus, the first expected back in the fall of 1956. In the Annual I.-F. Sing, Phi Gamma Delta and Psi Upsilon shared honorsithe Fijis winning the quality cup. Psi U. the quantity cup.

Alpha Delta Phi, founded in 1832 at Hamilton College, is the oldest continually existing fraternity. The Chicago Chapter started out as the Lionis Head Club in 1894, received its charter in 1896. Many motivating circumstances under which Alpha Delta Phi was created have long since disappeared; nowhere have the transformations in fraternity life been more basic or more salutary than at Chicago. The chapter has restored, amplified the literary exer- cises required by the founder aeons ago. The Alpha Delts are famous socially for their an- nual CASTLE ROCK party, which this year drew a near-record crowd. Alpha Delta Phi at Chicago strives to add to class- room interests, to provide the amenities of Brother- hood, to translate the professed ideals of its original codes into modern ways of scholarly pursuits, con- genial living.

The University of Chicago changes constantly as does the membership of this chapter and the manner in which it proceeds. However, the essential aims of fraternity life and the bonds which that life creates have always. been constant factors in Beta. It was the Betas? candidate that won the I.-F. Queen contest this year. They have held several suc- cessful parties during the course of the year. Gen- eraliy, the Beta policy is one of balance between Social and Academic life. With over ninety chapters distributed among near- ly all the important institutions of the country, and with its reputation for forward looking leadership in the fraternity world, Beta Theta Pi stands ready as always to offer the interested student a comple- ment of solid and enduring w0rth to his academic training.

Delta Upsilon The University of Chicago Chapter of Delta Upsi- lon was chartered in 1901 on the petition of a local non-secret society known as uThe Iron Key, which had been established for the purpose of joining D.U. Today D.U. stands as the only non-secret internad tional fraternity. Each year D.U.,s Rose Dance is their crowning social event of the year. Other events are the Monster Party for orphaned children, regular fortnightly Supper clubs. Affiliated with an international organization founded in 1834- with 72 chapters, D.U. takes pride in its part in developing the unique fraternity system at Chicago.

Phi Delta Theta It has been within the last year that the discrimi- natory clause has been removed from the Phi Delta Theta national constitution, due mainly to the efforts of the Chicago Chapter, the Illinois Beta, of Phi Delta Theta. Since that battle was fought and won, the Phi Dells on the Chicago campus have added constantly to their numbers, and have again taken their place as one of the most active houses at the University. Socially, the Phis hold two of the most successful campus parties each year, the Hawaiian Dinner and the Silly Strut.

The strong bond of fellowship uniting these men in the first chapter of the fraternity has been constantly extended until it binds college men to- gether in fraternal affection in more than eighty undergraduate colleges located throughout the coun- try and Canada. The high scholastic achievements of the Phi Cams are balanced with an extensive program of social events. The annual Apache Party, joint parties with the womens clubs and the elaborate Crass Skirt keep the Fijis busy. This year the Fijis held their Ninth Annual Christmas party for children from the U. of C. settlement house in conjunction with two of the Womens Clubs. This program, plus an excellent pledge class, will probably keep the Fijis in the news for many years to come. Top: a htrthdm party for assorted Fjjib and friends.

Phi Psi Manor is, indeed, a very impresaive struc- ture, with walls eight feet thick in places. Even more impressive, however, is the I'sBela Tradition, which is based on an equal balance of both dis- cipline and freedom. While the University curricu- lum provides discipline, the fraternity provides the freedom. Though small in number, the Phi Psis more than make up for their size with their abundance of spirit. The Phi Kappa Psi Wash Prom Exhibit won the Exhibit cup at this yearis Wash Prom. Their Esquire Party was a huge success. The Beta chapter is only one chapter of a very large and very respected national. Seholastically, they won their provincial scholarship contest, which speaks for itself.

Alpha Beta, the ZBT chapter on this campus, has always believed in. the primary tenets of friendship, coopera. tion, and mature understanding. The members work together and the habits developed and the experience gained is of great beneht in the years to come. Al- though recreational activities are important for a well-rounded campus life, high academic standards are also set.

Interdub Council Although the L'niversily of Chicago does not have national sororities, its women's clubs purport to hold the important place in social life on this campus that sormities do on other campuses. Interclub Council functions as the coordinating body for the women? clubs, and serves as a liason be- tween the individual clubs and the administration. Monday night is club meeting night on the second Hour of Ida Noyes, after meeting is often the occasion for club-fraternity mixers, although this kind of mixing is not limited to Monday nights. Interclub activities vary from standing on a cold street corner collecting for WIS. to hestessing at the Chancellorhs recep- tion.

H.E.P.T.- LAFs tpronouneed heptlaysi large number of stockholders aesured Vin- cent House of a sound economic basis. The Chan Fans are a fanatical group devoted to the Great Charlie Chan. They meet twice monthly to watch films of his exploits, assiduously recording for posterity the gems of wit uttered by the Great Chan. Other Houses slacked not in activity either. The usual round of parties, exchanges were held. Chamberlain, though, held aloof from the others. Its population was doggedly determined in educational pursuits, thor- oughly individualistic in its extra-curricular life. Conservation flowed in undiminished force, volume around the genialesometimes phenol-scented eatinosphere 0f the dinner table, but neither the majority of medics, mathematicians, physicists, nor the English-speaking minority showed much inclination to disturb the tomb-like silence of their House with organized activity. As far as sports, they rested on previous laurels. Fay ne que eouldras, was their motto. 183 Couller House. ant row: Leonard Lynn, Vicmr Carlsont Andy Thomas. Robert Hamlin.

With the most notorious reputation in the Courts for two years, Linn House entered the 1954-55 year with the original members of the nsegregated 1952 entering class. The event of the year was the Second Annual Open House with each H001 contributing. a theme.

Over all these houses, their house councils is the B.-J. Council, a co-ordinating group composed of two representatives from each house. Headed this year by Rick Prarie, functioning primarily as a service organization it concerns itself with student needs, consolidates student opinion on dorm issues, represents the courts in various campus organizations. Social, cultural, recreational activities of a court- wide scope are handled by the Council. In the so- cial sphere, the most successful Council-sponsored activity is the B.-J. Movies, presenting a selection of top-notch, low priced films each Friday and Sunday nights. During the Winter-Quarter a new high-fidel- ity sound-system was installed in the Judson Lounge to further improve the quality of these films. The Burton Library with its LP. record collection and Hi-Fi phonograph is a Council activity which has wide use by B.-J. residents. Limited funds have kept the record library from expanding.

It sponsored a ping- pong pyramid tournament, is considering the erection of a basketball court behind B.-J. Other services included maintenance of a TV. set, supervision, upkeep of pianos for aspiring musicians, a collection of dance records availahie t0 the entire House System. The Council also acts as the official spokesman for the courts and at- tempts to present a unified opinion to the Administration concerning court regulations. Through the Councilhs efforts, a program whereby women could be admitted to the individual house lounges was set-up, but every attempt to allow women into the rooms so far has faile 1, future prospects seeming just as dim. Last Spring, under Don Fishefs Presidency, the Council set up a new constitution providing for two terms during the year, instead of the 01d October-to-June term. Present elections are held in May and December, those elected :in May return 0-Week to help nw students. Dodd House.

But no longerefor Beecher is now a law students? dorm, and the bulletin board Hlled with dance bids has given way to piles of law books, cases and decisions. Yet the law students have created a thriving community of their own: a common dining hall, evening coffee hours, guest Speakerseall provide a communal atmosphere for the student in pursuit of the study of law. Beecher lacks not for women visitOrs either1 for its lounge boasts the only television set in the C-Group. In other graduate dorms, the community is not as closely knit, for the men of Beechr are bound to each other by a common study. The interests of the girls in Gates-Blake and the men in Snell-Hitchcock are more diversihed, and the absence of communal dining facilities tends to disperse further the meet- ing ground for these students.

C-Croup The group which serves as a sounding board for problems concerning the Cegwup is the Inter-Dorm Council. Their main functions are recommending special hours privileges for dorm residents for spe- cial campus events, requesting improvements in dorm life, and planning social activities in conjunction with the B-J council. Concerning improvements for the womenis dorms, the 1-D council had a new ping-pong table set up in the basement recreation room, and they saw to it that the coke and candy machines were fixed. The ID and 3-1 councils sponsored the Noahas Ark Dance given last November, and supported and worked for the Festival of Arts weekend. The Coun- cil is composed of two representatives from each dorm in the. C-group, the President of each dorm, and an Inter-Dorm President elected from the group.

One of the most active 0f the dorms in terms of social and cultural activities, Green has had a very good year. They have spon- sored two open houses during the year; an All- Campus Halloween party, which was designed to be an annual affair; and the regular uopen house Thursday night coifee hours. Within their own dorm life they have sponsored several exchange dinners with the hoys, dorms, and entertained several guests among whom were Dean McCarn and Mr. Kiendl. The dorm cultural events were highlighted by a dis- cussion seasion led by Dr. Bruno Bettelheim, and weekly record concerts which were given in conjunc- tion with Mathews House for the purpose of listening to course materials and music of interest to both groups. Together with an active athletic interest, Green has had a well rounded and very full year, as also have the other C-group dorms. A chat around a hike by the ivy-covered walls of the C-Group.

IML w. a3 JAN METROS: WOMAN OF THE YEAR 223 t-alcknowledgmems Exhausted, but happy that the Yearbook is finally put to bed, the staff would like to breathe loud thanks to those many people who helped tuck it in. First and foremost, 15 cheers for Ernie Simmons of Jahn and Ollier, without whose help this would he the. 1956 Yearbook. Another 15 cheers for Jahn and Ollieras Carol Fox. who did such a fine job of such a dreary task: the dummy. Next. thanks to the Cap and Cou-nR hoary alumni: Tom DeLeon, Ed Maupin, Jerry Cross, who stopped down in the ofhce to offer cheery and fatherly advice to the weary and of: discouraged staff. And then, for fatherly discipline, thanks to Art Kiendl who occasionally found it necessary to scold the staH' out of its lethargy. Thanks too to Rossi who softened the- scoldings. Much of this laudation must go to our sister organization1 Cumin Drags. Also to George and Sam, 10 James: Buchanan and Co., LuLhall of whom supplied the succor and sustinence necessary to keep us going. T0 Felicia Anthenelli, Virginia Mitchell, Lee Case, Dick VanderFen, Marvin Phillipa Allen Janger, above all to William Morgenstern and his whole crew in Press RelationSu-all of whom supplied much needed pictures. T0 Bruce. Larkin, Margo Turkel, Beverly Barman, Bob Strader, Sylvia Hadley! Pat Cagney Evelyn Lee, and the many others who sat at the type writer and went through the drudgery 0f transfering illegible handwriting to readable copy. A big thanks also to Mike Cilligan for his Echo drawings. A last word of thanks l0 C-Shop mthhe. the Student Loan Service, and Sue Pm'kinsj Winstuns. I an Metros: Woman of the year This issue of Cap and Gown. marks the return of two almesl forgotten segments of campus life. First: Echo, the traditional supplement to Can and Gown. Second: Echoie Man of the Year. The last man of the year was 1039,53 William Hardy MacNeill, now Chairman 0f the College History Course, Collaborator of Toynbeeethen tlfamon Editor and hpersonal mice of Hutchins on campus.,, For a discussion of 195535 Man of the Year, read on: A 5'4 , hazel-eyed, dark-browned-haired eo-ed who can be seen almost anywhere on campus is Jan Metres. During O-Week, in the B.-J. Snack Bar, in front of Cobb. in I.S.L. Caucus, 5.6. meetings, etc. --she is virtually everywhere. Jan,s inHuenee has made itself felt in many or- ganizations. As President of I.S.L., a S.C. member and Chairman of the important N.S.A. Committee her voice carries much weight in campus politics. Her almost tearful speech on the S.C. Hoor favoring the Kueheman twhich helped mold a solid I.S.L. vote and split S.P.PJ was in marked conference to one she gave at Madison a few weeks previous. Rep- resenting the U.S.S.R. at a U.N. Conference, Jan argued so eloquently in the Human Rights Commis- sion tdespite one goof: a reference to hCod-given rightst that one girl actually thought she was 3 Com- munisteuntil she found out Jan was Catholic. Her devoulness manifests itself in many ways. One: rousing her sleeping sisters from bed Sunday mornings to drag them to Mass. Another: At a Stu- dent Union Board meeting, discussing whether to schedule a dance during, Lent, Jan blurted: But you can't. It just isn't . . . isn,t kosher!,, During Orientation Week she was an 0,-Assi5tant in the C.-Gr0up, an active member of 0,-Board and Student Advisory Board. A three-year dorm resi- dent. who participated widely in House activities, represented her house on the Inter-Dorm Council, she was a willing, capable volunteer to help house oHicers. Her popularity was shown last Fall when she led the ticket in the 5.6. elections. Four times Jan has tied for office, and four times won-twice to 8.6., twice to the NBA. Congress as a National Delegate. 4t U.-High graduate, this is her third year at U. of C. and she plans to study Archeology-a far cry from silkecreening in the 511. Workshop. But it's all part of her development, and her contribution to the campus extra-eurrieulummmuch of it behind the scenes, unheralded-that qualihes her to be Woman of the Year. 601306; 0 N thr- vu'a cum Emr mm Ulut' KW so $111, a: 59$ 0N IVE E 3 $55 tinge: idAec! grace lo eschofar-JAEP ,. . gm ,. .1333 301:1: ' 5: gm I... kit. . . a 45s: Ollier Again A familiar and reassuring slogan FAMILIAR.. because i! has appeared in lhousdmfs of tire caunrry's finest your books for fine pas! ind: cnlfwy.
