BROOKS THE "OLD BOYS" SPEAK When an organization of Chicago' Conference Alumni went on record Saturday as opposed to the tendency to commercialize college athletics, more than one heart beat in sympathy. And more than one heart, torn by the de- mands of this go-getting stadium age, found spiritual refreshment in their calm denunciation of the present ten-j dencles in college athletics. For one thing, their statements in- dicated something which most stu- dents, in their relations with the "old boys" returning for the big game, are seldom liable to appreciate: namely, that alumni do not exist chiefly to come back and cheer the team to vic- toiy; that they are now men of sense, for the most part, and can see the fol- lies as well as the advantages of our' much over-stressed athletic activities. Their manifesto said in part: "We feel that there is a vicious tendency i' football. We refer to the impor- tance given to the amount of the 'gate.' There is no denying that this is to some extent responsible for ex- isting football schedules, and the fact that football supports other sports is no justification for it. This tendency is deplorable." Their words are interesting chief- ly in that they kick the teeth out of the football zealot's supreme argu- ment. The football zealot, when se- duced into discussion with one who can see some purposetin a university other than to have the largest and coldest and most wind-swept and most unalterably solid stadium in the world, is apt to say: "But it's a great thing for the university! Advertises it, you know! Makes the rich alumni kick through new museums and things! It SELLS the university to the alumni!" The action of this Chicago group shows rather conclusively that alumni don't want the university sold to them, if it means prostituting the athletes in return. Instead of being sold on their Almae Matres, they seem to see the very means by which the sale was to be effected as a malignant growth on the firm flesh of education, and one which should be removed by the nearest doctor. THE GERMAN ELECTION For the first time in the 1,000 years of its turbulent existence, the German nation Sunday voted for a president. Unfortunately, the thirty million or more men and women with their new- ly vested power of the ballot were un- exterior has its origin in the strong desire to be admired by others- primarily by the opposite sex--to be recognized by them as especially well- shaped, handsome, youthful, or rich and powerful. Does Mr. Johnson find that the wearing of wing collars en- hances his attraction for the opposite; sex? If he does he is running di-I rectly counter to all historical evi-, livered at Columbia university, Sep- tember 28, 1910, "I believe," writes' Osborn, "the greatest fault of the American student lies in the over- development of one of his greatest virtues, namely, his collectivism. His strong esprit de corps patterns and moulds him too far.

As a matter of fact I don't wear them myself. Perhaps, as the other alternative, Mr. Johnson appears among us as an innovator of a new and more beautiful style of dressing, in short, as a kind of saratorial messiah. But surely he does not believe that the universal wearing of wing collars would add to the beauties of the campus as one1 saunters to a nine o'clock? Think ofj the humiliation such a fad would bringj to those who are cursed with a promi- nent and unstable Adam's apple. Let us have innovations in style, but none such as this. Aside from these two possibilities, I can conceive of no sensible motive for Mr. Johnson's masquerade in the wing collar. Without any such justification in principle or purpose, his non-con- formity in dress becomes absurd to normal minds, and the laughing ridi- cule he received quite well deserved. His, case is similar to that of a campus professor, whom, to hide his identity completely, I will call Henley., Now Henley is a purposeless non-conform- ist in the matter of speech, just as Johnson is in the matter of dress. 365 1-4 days out of the year Henley gets up in his classes and mispro- I ley, the author continues: "Here you may discover the secret of greatness, which is, first, to be born great, un- fortunately a difficult and often im- possible task; and second, to possess the instinct of self-education. You will thid that everyone of these masters while more or less influenced by their tutors and governors was led by a, sort of internal, instinctive feeling that they must do certain things and learn certain things. They may fight the battle royal with parents, teach- ers, and professors,......but without exception from a very early age they do their own thinking and revolt against having it done for them, and they seek their own mode of learn- ing." I conclude by citing the advice to students by D'Arcy W. Thompson, as! found in "Day Dreams of a School- master": "In, your college lecture- room ,"advises Thompson, "listen with respectful attention to what is said; but abstain from taking notes. Half of what you hear were better forgot- ten, with much of the remainder you will probably disagree: what residue is worth remembering will be remem- bered for its singularity." A student who has not been trained in the art of thinking for himself- unless he is a born genius-will never become original. And as long as we lack originality, we cannot have a great literature or great art. Origi- Mr. LaRowe Romance ............
