Lorado T aft, probably the greatest
living Am erican sculptor, w ill deliver
an illustrated lecture, entitled “ My
Dream Museum,” in Murkland A udi­
torium at 8 P.M. on W ednesday, N o­
vember 13.
A fte r graduating from the Univer­
sity o f Illinois in 1880, Mr. T a ft went
to Paris where he studied fo r five
years. He came back to A m erica en­
grossed with the idea that any nation
in order to develop great art must
also develop passionate appreciation.
Because o f his adherence to this ideal,
it has often been said that he has
done more to inspire a knowledge of
art and a love o f the beautiful than
any other man in Am erica.
In 1904 Mr. T a ft published a “ H is­
tory o f A m erican Sculpture” and in
1921 “ Modern Tendencies in Sculp­
ture.” He has delivered m any thou­
sand addresses. He has a sparkling
wit and a g ift fo r pleasing phrases.
His lecture w ill be illustrated with 150
slides o f the w orld’s finest sculpture,
whose beauty and significance he will
explain.
Mr. T a ft’ s own m asterpieces are to
be found from Seattle, W ashington
to the D istrict o f Columbia. Many of
his best w orks are in Chicago, where
he has maintained a studio since 1886.

By R oy Lovely
So What ? Department.
“ B lood ‘ is thicker than w ater.” W e
have heard this said a thousand times,
and have read it an equal number, but
we must admit our abject failure to

O.K. as fa r as it goes, but w hy not,
carry it to its logical conclusion ?
Something like “ Blood is thicker than
water, but not nearly so thick as
cream o f asparagus soup.”
The English language, fo r all its
undoubted excellences, is oingularly
slow in officially adopting compound
w ords which have evolved out o f
everyday usage.
The Germans are
much our superiors in this respect.
They would see no need fo r separa­
tion or hyphens in such term s as
“w ealth y brewier,’* “ glam orous act­
ress,” “ golden-voiced tenor,” “ hand­
some leading m an,” “ utilities m ag­
nate,” etc. N or is there any particu­
lar reason why these and others like
them shouldn’t be w ritten as one

Could any prospect be ha. ?
Our critical gem fo r this w eek has
to do with a rendition o f “ H am let” by
one who called him self an actor. W hat
the res’t o f the w orld called him is not
given in any detail, but a certain c r i­
tic, after the perform ance, observed
that, “ Now would be an excellent time

night, a i r semblance o f order broke
down.
Hats and coats w ere piled as
usual on the floor o f the checking
room but in such numbers that no
aisle was left. The checking attend­
ants not only were forced to tram ple
on hats and coats in their search fo r
those called for, but were utterly un­
able to find the garm ents that they
.sought.
True, the attendants w ere inexperi­
enced and some o f the fau lt fo r the
chaotic conditions must be laid to
them, t h e system itself, however, is
mainly to blame.
There is every reason to feel that
the U niversity should go to the ex­
pense o f having tem porary racks made
so that clothing checked at dances in
the gym c m ld be placed on coat-hangers. Racks and hangers could be in­
stalled by the Superintendent o f P ro­
perty and rem oved so as not to hamp­
er the use o f the room by the Athletic
Department.
The ticket selling situation m ight
also come in fo r considerable criticism .
Taking up what little room there is in
the hallway w ith a table and chair is
ridiculous. To keep order in the dis­
bursement o f tickets is impossible. A
booth built into the w all o f the M ili­
tary D epartm ent office nearest the
gym floor would not deprive this office
o f any appreciable amount o f space
arid would assist im m easurably in
cleaning the congestion in the hall.
The cost o f these im provem ents is
not prohibitive. W h y have they not
been made ?
Mott Gives Fourth
Broadcast on Peace
The fou rth in the new series o f ra­
dio program s sponsored by the Stu­
dent M ovement fo r Peace was broad­
cast from W H E B last Thursday from
3:30 to 4 o’ clock.
The guest speaker was Ralph Mott,
a sophom ore who has returned from
Cuba a fter a year o f residence in
that turbulent island to resume his
studies at this U niversity. He spoke
On social conditions there, and gave
a, picture o f life in general am ong the
natives.
The other speaker was Alexander
Karanikas, who discussed the m eaning
o f youth movements throughout the
world. He stressed their significance
as being sym bolical o f mass discon­
tent and revolt against those influences
i^i the w orld that are leading man­
kind to another war.
About Town
B y O.D.C.
Contrary to John K ieran o f the Heraldi, the Jumbo was not a pink ele­
phant as last year! The score was no
indication o f the sound defeat admin­
istered; Tufts was superior only in
punting but didn’t make a first down.
E very one o f our men looked good—
Jerry was as cool as the proverbial
cucum ber throw ing passes, Fritz ought
to be a sprinter the w ay he went
down under punts, and it’s a pleasure
to w atch Charlie block. T h e-w ork of
our ends- was outstanding and we like
to see A1 and Peder go through the
line.
The Jumbo safe'ty-man found
the goin g slippery as the field last
week. H ow ’d you like the new cheer­
leaders ?

The Status of the Family and Women

The Fascist Dilemma
The status o f m atrim ony and o f th e'
fam ily have taken on a new aspect o f
late in the Soviet Union w ith the tigh ­
tening o f divorce laws, the more strin­
gent punishment o f “ alim ony dodgers”
and the official emphasis upon “ the
responsibilities o f m arriage, and the
need fo r fa m ily life .” The e x p la n a ­
tions o f this late m ove has been treat­
ed variously, but a m ost frequent in­
terpretation b y the capitalist press is
that “ the Communists are gradually
g oin g bourgeois.” This angle is “ sup­
erficial,” states M illy Bennett in an
article w ritten fo r the New Y ork
Tim es Sunday, Nov. 10th.
She asserts that the change o f atti­
tude o f the Soviets tow ard tine fam ily
is to be found in the contrast o f con­
ditions between the chaotic econom ic
situation during the period o f Capital­
ist intervention and im m ediately f o l­
low ing it and the present stage o f both
internal and international security.
D uring the “ pioneer” days due to the
shortage o f men as a result o f the
w ar and the im perative need o f Russia
rapidly building its industrial econo­
m y, it w as necessary to em ploy every
available individual at the expense o f
the fam ily. “ The com pletion o f the

present im perialist aggression in Italy
N ow com es the news from Germany,
the other m a jor Fascist pow er o f Eu­
rope, that the shortage o f food in
N aziland has caused serious concern
in official circles. Says the N ew Y ork
T im es: “ A lthough Germ any is doing
her best to stay neutral in the A n gloItalian controversy pending further
developments, nevertheless the war in
Ethiopia is beginning to subject the
N ational Socialist regim e to a new
strain which tends to produce in Ger­
m any some o f the same results as m
w ar-em broiled Italy.” The greatest
strain is the “ chronic sh ortage” o f
food s and fa ts thus leading to the in­
troduction o f “ m eatless and butterless
days.” A lthough none are yet going
hungry, in the view o f experts, “ this
lack o f balanced diet is leading to a
certain fa t hunger which is bound to
increase w ith the approach o f w inter
and m ay easily lead to m alnutrition in
the poorer classes o f the population.”
The article fu rther states in conclu­
sion that, “ The possible political con­
sequences o f such a developm ent are
already causing much concern to the
rulers o f the Third Reich and explain
the nervous, irritated undertone o f
the recent Nazi speeches.’
The above coupled w ith a later dis­
patch to the Tim es proves beyond a
doubt the unsolvable contradictions of
Fascism . “ W ith German unem ploy­
ment figures rising again, Count Lutz
Schwerin von K rosigh, the Finance
M inister, in a speech at F ran kfort
sounded a new appeal to the world to
open its doors to German exports and
to allot to Germ any some colonies
w hich w ould provide her needed raw
m aterials.”
“ The w orld must be aw are,” he said,
“ that we cannot exist w ithout increas­
ed exports. W e must g o tw o ways.
The first demands the creation o f do­
m estic products. The second demands
a share in territories from which we
can g et our raw m aterials.”
Since the m eeting o f these demands
by fellow capitalist nations is indeed
slight, the only solution fo r H itler is
to follow M ussolini’s present tactics:
W ar, a technique which to m any is
fu tile fo r any permanent solution, es­
pecially upon the realization that what
is occurring in Europe today is m ere­
ly a continuation o f the econom ic
hostilities that the W orld war was
unable to solve.
