A
PROKESSOl
at Northwestern
imiversitv was dismissed this
week. He stated that he felt the
reason tor his dismissal was the
fact that he is a member of the
American Civil Liberties union, the
league for industnal democracy,
an.) bcl.l unorthodox attitudes on
problems of peace, iaee, and in
dustrv.
Does this mean that college pro-
fessors may not be allowed to : because of the fact that faculty
teach if their views do not coincide ! members are usually given leading
with majority opinion, which can 'roles in the plays. But G. C. has
usually he counted on as being- con- ! real meiit in his arguments. His
servative opinion? Is the opinion 'suggestion that at least two pro
of the majority to dictate to col- ductions during a season could be
rr,fOUCrc hut ,r.,i ho- thov ! turned over entirely to student
try x
shall teach?
Perhaps w ithout know ing more I
of the circumstances of the ease
we have cited, we should not draw
conclusions. But it seems an un
fortunate tendency that faculties,
especially in state supported insti
tutions, are fearful of expressing
opinions on controversial issues.
Any progress which may possibly
result from training in institutions
of higher learning will likely be
stultified if professors feel obliged
from a sense of self-preservation to
muffle their own ideas and "stick
to facts."
Of course there is a limit of dis
cretion which professors should ob
serve. Jt is obviously unethical
for instructors to abuse their posi-
tions bv ramming down the throats
of students their own pet doctrines
and by interpreting what they
teach in the light of these doc
trines. But if professors are lorced
to shun expressions of opinion, we
agree with the Wisconsin Daily
Cardinal that "we might just as
well stay with our books of half a
century ago and our dogmas of the
last .rO0 years."
II hat tht' Younger
Man Should lnm
WITH somewhat of a shock the
reader of the current Har
per's magazine will discover an
article by Robert LittHl entitled
"What the Young Man .Should
Know." But it is pretty safe to
pr edict that even greater sho k
will be produced when the author
reveals a list of some of the tilings
lie considers important.
Among other things, according ,
to Mr. Littcll, the young man
.should be able to: swim, handle j
firearms, speak in public, took, ;
typewrite, ride a horse, drive a car, j
dance, drink, speak at least one j
foreign language well. A lather 1
astonishing group of accomplish- j
n ents to be recommended, isn't it? j
But Mr. Littcll doesn't think j
they're astonishing. In fact, he j
boasts that those are some of the !
things he hds in mind to leach his I
own child. He reasons mat me
accomplishments he lists are things
I required in present day society,
and since the schools place little or
no emphasis on thorn, it would be
well for the parents to give atten
tion to them in the hope of allevi-
atine the lot of children cast into
a wot ui mucn oiiieiem nom u"
one sketched by formal education.
"pill-; inerefised leismc held in
store by the future is also one
of the grounds on which Mr. Littcll
bases lvs list. Instead of making
it necessary for a youth to kill
time, the writer believes that pur
suit of his recommendations will
enable the youth to fill time.
Perhaps we might suggest some
extensions to the list, since it is
probable that it will receive little
serious consideration. May we .sug
increased leismc held
gest, then, that a vouth should also
bo able to read and write, to hear
of the failure of his father's bank
without a quiver, and to memorize
1 the latest jazz songs in not less
than fifteen minutes.
Unfortunately for the plans of
Mr. Littcll, we'll bet that his son's
mother will have more than a little
bit to say about the education of
the youth wnose father would have
him a paragon of the jazz age.

Who Said Ihv
I'lavvrs iro Good?
TO THE EDITOR:
Y
OUR verbal barrage in defense
of the imlusion of faculty
members in the easts of the pro
ductions of the University Players
came at an opportune moment. For
weeks 1 have been toying with the
desire to write to you. .lust as I
was about to relegate the notion
to oblivion, your editorial ap
peared, and fanned the dying spark
of inspiiation to a blaze. I dedi
cate this to you, and to those stu
dents, who, reading this, will man
age to stumble out of the morass
they have inadvertently wandered
into.
In your editorial you seem to be
imbued with the idea that success
is a panacea for everything-. I par
ticularly find fault with your lath
er high handed attitude in stating
that, although the Dramatic club
does not fill the needs of the stu
dents, it is better than nothing.
(Akin to: "If they have no bread
let them eat cake.")
Your main point of argument is
that the University Players, hav
ing- estahnsmu a reputation tor
public support, if amateurs were
used exclusively.
On what do you base your esti
mate of the high quality of the
Players' productions? It seems to
be taken for granted, on the cam
pus, that the Players are first
rate. Why?
yilEY appear to be an earnest
group of amateurs, working
hard, without the ability to reach
above average heights. In support
of this, I will cite the ease of
"Porgy." This offers an admirable
example, as the performance was
considered good enough to warrant
holding the play for an extra show
ing. (In all probability, due to the
publicity engendered by the racial
question.)
Kditor's note: A det&ili-d eritxiMn of the
netinn in ' Porpy" is omitted because of
lack of spare and liecaue the point in the
writer' argument are not Impaired by thin
omission.
The significant thing is that the
performance was judged as good.
If such a shoddy piece of work can
get by, there is no reason at all
why an entire cast of amateurs
cannot perform passably before
such poor jirdges of acting.
A S you stated,
the Dramatic
club cannot fill

than one-act skits. Good one-act
plays may be shown at times, but
full-length plays are a necessity if
the students are to benefit.
Due to its dependences on indi

incur the financial risk of present
