,MITCHELL Sigma Nu vals in Cock a Clifford Mitchell is the first to gain glory as the winner of the Luckey Y. M. C. A. cockfight cup contest. In a .hot contest in the finals with Callison at the mix Friday night, he showed •champion gamebird class. The pillow fight, also closely con tested, was won by Jim Cossman. It is hard to say who was the hot handedest hot-hander, but some Eighty biffs were recorded. Short, snappy talks were given by Bert Lombard, President of the Uni versity Y. M. C. A., President Camp bell, Dean Straub, Dr. Ralph Bennett and Mr. O’Donnell, director of the Patterson playground, of Portland. The “rube” band was a great hit. Its appearance was a surprise to the mix officials. Probably they were en ticed by the chocolates and doughnuts served soon after their arrival. A taste of Oregon was given the guests by a serpentine of singing, dancing, exam-free students, led by Elton Loucks. ABORIGINAL OF MAN AND MON KEY SAME, SAYS SWEETSER “Man is not descended from mon Key, but both man and monkey are descended from some animal which resembles both. Man is going to one extreme and the monkey to the other,” said Professor A. R. Sweetser, head of the Department of Biology in an address before his student class at thte Methodist church Sunday, Jan uary 31. Professor Sweetser’s topic was the Life of Henry Drummond, the great scientist. “Drummond was a man some peo ple called a free-thinker, but there is mot a man in history who portrayed the work of God as has this scientist in his ‘Ascent of Man,’ where the theory of evolution is advanced. Drum mond believes that it is impossible for a man who has studied nature not to realize that God has created some form of life in the beginning, that man and all other animals have been -growing from the most simple form ®to the most complex,” said Profes sor Sweetser. THIEF MAKES WAY WITH TWO LENSES FROM STEREOPTICON Between the hours of 5:00 and 7:00 P. M. last Monday, the stereopticon was stolen from the Architectural Building. The principal part of the machine was left outside the building, where ' it was found, but three condensing lenses were removed from it. One of these was dropped upon the railroad track, but the thief got away with two of the large condensers. The disabled stereopticon is now in Professor Percy Adams’ office awaiting the indefinite purchase of new condensers. I ^ Meanwhile the architectural stu i dents will have to go without the il lustrated lectures on the history of architecture. BASEBALL SUPPLANTS HEAD HUNTING—SMITH (Continued from pn« 1.) spent six months in Manila, studying the Philippine forest methods. But with r.11 their progressive ideaes, Dr. Smith evidently does not believe the people of the islands capable of self government. To show the ignorance of the native legislature, he cited the case of the refusal of the lower house to vote an appropriation of $30,000.00 for stamps. They could not seem to ^understand that stamps were reve | nue. “Unfortunately, the Philippine ques tion is political,” stated Dr. Smith. “It should not be political; it should be strictly economical and education al. People physically independent may be economic slaves. People liv ing in ascending air currents usually lack initiative. Land masses afford greater barriers to commerce than large bodies of water. The lack of a common language is a very great bar rier to common thought. The Phil ippines are hampered by these things; when we shall have removed these ob stacles, then this question shall be solved.” Athletes will not be permitted to -hold class offices at the University of a Chicago hereafter.
