Philosophy Professor Gets Inside View
Gigantic Nazi Convention in Germany
Professor Conger used another to
gaze upon the "most imposin ;
sight of all," 115,000 troopers with
their flags, massed in another
stadium waiting the arrival of
"Der Fuhrer," a sight which In
spired a German standing near to
say, "You must go back to Nero
and Caligula to find anything like
it."
Views "Spectacles."
From then on. Professor Con
ger's tickets were used on nothing
but "spectacles" with soldiers
marching, and everywhere troop
ers and populace alike waiting pa
tiently for the appearance of Hit
ler, when the storm of "Heil, Hit
ler" yells would break loose.
Everywhere he saw pageantry,
but with the note of discipline,
military precision and unquestion
ing obedience pervading every
where. From this fact, along with
other observations. Professor Con
ger deduces that Germany is a na
tion of people who like to be led,
and this fact may make Hitler a
great man in spite of himself.

tion and takes sides in the affair.
They quarrel or cheer depending
on the intensity of the brawl and
usuaJy have a general hey-day.
Saint's days are also big events
in this district. The residents hold
street parades at the head of which
is carried the picture or image of
their particular patron saint. The
people, some of them appearing in
costume, follow the procession
singing folk songs and sometimes
pin money on the effigy. The gar
lic sandwiches are also important
In the evening the beer joints are

which is relegated, however, most
ly to Sunday afternoon.
1,000 Visit Emerson House.
Situated in the heart of this
neighborhood, the Emerson settle
ment house was visited during
Miss Medlar's stay by more than
1,000 people who came fot various
kinds of assistance. According to
Miss Medlar's explanation, the set
tlement house is an aid and in
formational center located in a
neighborhood in which people need
help. These centers are usually in
foreign districts and their purpose
is not essentially to give relief, as
is often supposed, but simply to be
a good neighbor by acquainting
foreigners with American customs.
The work that Mis.s Medlar did
at the house was largely with chil
dren. It is her opinion that the
summer school classes in handi
craft singing and folk dancing
held for them were devised mainly
to keep them off the streets. At
the opening classes the children
were permitted to tell stories. Their
candid tales revealed much about
their home life as well as queer;
happenings in the neighborhood. A
little Negro girl told of how "two
people got happy and died." And
that's the end of the story. Other
stories concerned many reports of
the deaths of children in street ac
cidents and activities of the boys
gangs of the district.
Miss Medlar and a co-worker,
Miss Hockett, b e c a m e friendlv
with one gang of nine boys, which !
mereaner was called the Med
Hock outfit Because members of
this gang had no secrets from their
namesakes. Miss Medlar got some
first hand information on this
Juvenile menace.
Gangs Named From Streets.
Most of the boys from 7 to 25
are organized into such groups
which are usually named from a
certain street. These gangs have
ineir rooiDaii and baseball teams.
but rowdyism is their more charac
teristic function. Car stealing is
the main "racket." Boys between
the ages of 7 and 12 strip off the
small accessories. The next divi
sion from about 12 to 16 lift the
bumpers, tires, etc.; and those still
older take the cars intact
The attempts of the police in
curb this racket are largely futile
because the whole gang must be
prosecuted before the charges can
be proven. In addition, secrecy
among the members of a gang
makes conviction difficult That
the gangs really enforce this se
crecy is shown by an account con
sidered valid in the neighborhood,
Crowned League Champions

BARB GAMES UNDER WAY
Fraternity intramural touch
football entered its final stage
Thursday as the last of the league
champions was crowned and won
the right to meet the other league
champions for the inter-fraternity
title. Simultaneously the barb in
tramural scehedule got under way
in full force. The Sigma Phi Ep
silon nine defeated the Tau
Kappa Epsilon team 13 to 0
and thus earned the right to rep
resent League IV in competition
against the victors of League I,
II. and III to decide the best fra
ternity nine on the campus.
The Delta Tau Delta team, the
Farm House nine, and the Sigma
Nus previously won the laurels in
Leagues I. II. ir.d III. These four
winners will -aw up a scehdule
among themacj'-es to play for the
fraternity chajnpiontfiip. Later the
fraternity winner will play the
barb winner for the all school
championship.

and the Tekes was a hotly con
tested one with tie former winning

of the knifing of a youth by his
fellow ga-igsters. who thought he
intended to squeal on a certain
radio "job."
Other work with the children
consisted in supervising the street
games on Tuesday night and in
accompanying excursions to the
world's fair on Thursday after
noon, which was nickle day for
children. Miss Medlar reported
that Barney Oldfield's demonstra
tion and the Enchanted Island
were the concessions most popular
with the children.
The Muinrnola Dally.
When is a reporter not a re
porter? When he's a university
professor just trying to get a
"look-see" at a German political
convention, according to George P.
Conger, professor of philosophy.
Professor Conger, while in Ger
many last summer, found he had
a little free time and decided to
spend it observing the gigantic
convention of the nazi party at
Nuremberg.
He made inquiries and requests
through official channels and when
he arrived at the convention, found
that he had been furnished a sheaf
of tickets of the type ordinarily
given only to newspaper reporters.
Interviews Nazi.
All Professor Conger's disclaim
ers of being a reporter were ig
nored and he was whisked about
in special busses along with for
eign correspondents, special corre
spondents, plain reporters and
others of the journalistic frater
nity. He finally wound up in a
reviewing stand, where his first bit
of "reporting" was a conversation
with a nazi storm trooper, who
discoursed on the severe life he
had, standing for hours in the hot
sun and marching with a heavy
pack.
After this bit of "human inter
est" had been recorded, Professor
Conger turned his attention to the
main event of the evening, in the
approach of Hitler. "Der Fuhrer,
standing in the first of a long pa
rade of automobiles, was raising
his arm every few seconds in the
nazi salute.
Sees Hitler.
Hitler's car stopped in front of
the reviewing stand, and the chan
cellor stepped out of the car,
greeted several voucded veterans
and then reviewed 10.000 troops,
which "goose-stepped" past for
over an hour. The goose-step in
combination with the nazi salute,
according to Professor Conger,
"touched new levels of whatever
it was that it touches, probably
ridiculousness."
The next morning the little green
ticket got Professor Conger into
a fine seat "right behind home
plate," where he watched 60,000
of the "Hitler youth" wait patient
ly until the leader appeared.
At this point, Professor Conger
records his reactions to Hitler, as
seen in daylight He states that,
seen in person, he is an improve
ment over most of his pictures,
being brighter looking than most of
them indicate. Also he states that,
although Hitler may be considered
a bungler by his enemies, he at
least is not a monster or a moron.
Hears Speeches.
The speech that he made before
this assemblege is termed "a com
mencement address in some gigan
tic brown-uniformed academy" by
rroressor conger. In the after
noon another of his sheaf of tickets
admitted him to another audito
rium, where he listened to "sur
prisingly philosophical" speeches
made by nazi delegates.
After seriously depleting his
stock of tickets by going to several
relatively unimportant meetings,
