Northwestern Adepts New
Plan for Aid First
Year Girls.
Freshman women living in
dormitories will be offered tutorial
assistance in any freshman subject
through a system announced yes
terday by Mrs. Florence S. Rob
nett, dean of women. Application
for aid will be entirely voluntary
until after mid-term when it will
become compulsory for those
freshman women whose grades are
low.
The system provides for ten tu
tors, all women with teaching ex
perience engaged in graduate
work who will be present every
night in Willard hall during study
hours to give any instruction nec
essarj. Miss Vera MacLaren, grad
uate in the political science de
partment, has been placed in
charge of the tutors. Tutors will be
assigned to the following required
and elective subjects: English;
mathematics including algebra and
trigonometry; classical, romai ca
and Germanic i languages; botany;
zoology; chemistry; hygiene; so
cial science; history and economic
history; sociology, and political
science. There will lie no formal
study hall and students will be free
to leave as soon as they have re
ceived the required help.
Offset Large Classes.
The purpose of the new system,
according to Dean Robnett, is to
expedite adjustment of the student
to work of the university and to
offset some of the difficulties aris
ing from large classes. "This is
admittedly an experiment in edu
cational method," said Dean Rob-

the system will meet the needs not

Hon .has been widely variant and
often inadequate to meet collegi

who have difficulty in required
college courses for which they
have no aptitude. If only ten stu
dents who otherwise would not re
turn to the university because of
poor grades can be carried suc

year, the new tutorial system will
have Justified itself." Daily

INTO 'SECRET SIX'
Chicago Officials Accept
Northwestern Men
As Aides.
EVANSTON, 111. Collegiate co
operation with Chicago officials in
combating the underworld is being
discussed on the Northwestern uni
versity campus here this week fol
lowing the initiation of & large
number of students and faculty
members into the secrets of the
"Secret Six."
Al Capone and his gangster lieu
tenants were vividly described to
a student-faculty luncheon gather
ing at the Orrlngton hotel by Col.
Isham Randolph, chairman of the
"hex" committee.
Professors as well as students
became widu eyed a the antlcrime
leader described th? manner in
which investigators traced cash
iers' checks and other documents
thru Chicago's financial institu
tions in procuring the evidence
that has brought the notorious vice
king to grief in the federal courts
on charges of falsifying his income
tax reports.
The Secret Six, already famous
in the annals of journalism and in
the cinema world, was formed
only a year ago by industrial lead
era of the city in such a way that
no one of them knew who the
other five were.
Current rates charged for
"bumping a guy off" range from
?50 to $300 in Chicago, but if
President Walter Dill Scott of the
university were the victim it would
cost more, because he is a "big
shot," the colonel said.
In the famous "pineapple pri
maries ' of 1S28, Chicago univer
sity students, 200 in number, vol
untarily served without pay as
catchers at polling places thruout
the windy city Many of them, it
was said, had enlightening as well
as thrilling experiences.
OWA STATE TEACHER
URGES SMALL KILLS
Professor Says Heavy Bags
Of Wild Ducks Will
Cut Supply.
AMES, la. Iowa duck hunters
who hope to enjoy good shooting
not only this fall but also in future
years will hold their hags this
year well below the legal limit,
Prof. J. E. Guthrie, of the zoology
department at Iowa State college
said yesterday. Heavy kills this
fall will be sure to cause a heavy
decrease in flocks for a number
of years to come, he said.
Waterfowl throughout the coun
try are scarcer this year than ever
before, Professor Guthrie pointed
out.
"Though the situation is no
worse in Iowa than elsewnere, ne
said, "this state is in one of the
heaviest paths of migration, the
Mississippi valley, and hunters in
this territory therefore bear great
er responsibility than those in
other districts. If the kill in Iowa
is large this fall, it will take years
for natural reproduction to make
up the loss."
One result of a heavy kill, he
added, will probably be a marked
decrease in the legal limit on baga
in future years.
The scarcity of waterfowl this
year, according to information
from the biological survey of the
United States department of agri
culture, is due to "a combination
of adverse conditions in the cumu
lative effects of drouth, drainage
and overshooting."
