Roemmert TalksTo ConvocationProjects Micro-organisms

Upon Movie ScreenDuring Lecture

Microvivarium pictures are more realthan those of the movie screen, said Dr.George Roemmert, founder and directorof the Microvivarium at the ChicagoWorld's Fair, lecturing at an assemblyheld in the Memorial Gymnasium Tues-day night.

The Microvivarium, by an intricate ar-rangement of mirrors, projects upon thescreen living micro-organisms as they lieon the stage of a microscope. Thus theymay be seen performing many of thefunctions which are common to animallife, including that of man.

"Science knows more than 25,000 varie-ties of one-celled creatures," Dr. Roem-mert said. He projected upon the screenimages of several varieties of protozoa,showing them performing the functions ofcell division, reproduction, and metabol-ism. "All processes of growth in the ani-mal kingdom are based upon this simpledivision of cells which we can see soplainly here in the Microvivarium," hesaid.

"This is probably the most unusual pro-gram we have had at the University inrecent years," said Dean Olin S. Lutes ofthe School of Education, who introducedthe speaker.

The lecture was attended by severalgroups of high school students from neigh-boring towns.

Masque Opens Season

Above, a scene irons 1' irst Lady, given by the Masque. Left to right:Virginia Maguire, Edward Stanley, John Williams, Harland Verrill, FosterHiggins, Margaret Lowell, Guy Dore, John Carlisle, Margaret Maxwell,and Mary Upham.

Political Satire Opens Masque;Maguire Leads Competent Cast

The production of First Lady, a three-act political satire by George

S. Kaufman and William Dayton, opened the 1937-38 season of the Maine

Masque in the Little Theatre Tuesday night. The play was presented

Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday evenings.

Virginia Maguire, the leading lady, setsan excellent example for the rest of thelarge cast in a vivid portrayal of LucyChase Wayne, one of the two most glam-orous women in Washington. The roleof the other, Irene Hibbard, is capably en-acted by Mary Upham. The rivalry be-tween these two for the position of FirstLady of the land makes for a brilliantdisplay of wit and feminine cunning.

Presidential TimberFoster Higgins, who has appeared in

several other Masque plays, gives his usu-al fine performance as Stephen Wayne,the Secretary of State. John Williams, asCarter Hibbard, an Associate Justice ofthe Supreme Court who is bothered bystomach trouble, provides a splendid con-trast to the more active Wayne. Both areWhite House aspirants.Evelyn Lovejoy ably depicts the role

of Mrs. Creevey, the president of theWomen's Peace, Piety, and PatriotismLeague, which is supported by 5,000,000invisible women. Margaret Lowell andGuy Dore are excellent as Belle and TomHardwick, friends of the Waynes. Mar-garet Maxwell is charming as the South-ern belle, Emmy Paige, who can distin-guish John Carlisle in the role of Gordon

Keane from the other senators because hehas more hair than the rest.

Washington's EliteSophie Prescott is pictured by Sybil

Greene as a faithful, efficient secretary tothe First Lady, and Jason Fleming, of thestate department, is well portrayed byHarland Verrill. Eva Chase, as MaryIves, and Barbara Ashworth, as Ann For-rester, give creditable performances as thewives of congressmen, as does EdwardStanley in the role of Ellsworth D. Gan-ning, a power in the newspaper world.The slim and elegant baroness (Blanche

Holman), the socially ambitious congress-man's wife (Lucille Fogg), her souvenir-seeking friend (Jean Boyle), Senor Or-tega of the Spanish Consul (DewittSki llll er), and the Chinese diplomat andhis wife (George Risman and HelenWong) give colorful glimpses into thecolorful whirl of Washington's social life.Others doing well in small parts were

Frederick Andrews as Charles, David As-tor as a General, Emily Hopkins as Mrs.Davenport, Richard Hopkins as Bleecker,Howard Fowley as George Mason, JosephGlasser as Herbert Sedgwick, and RobertCail, Carl Clark, Robert Cameron, andMarion Hatch as guests at the reception.

"And I Wrote on Your Slate,I Love You, Joe"--"School Days"

Dearest Editor,

I am in love. It happened Saturday,making Oct. 30 one of the most importantdays of my life, though granted the futurewill have to determine just how importantthat is.

Every football game, Mr. Editor, if it isa good game has something to distinguishit from other games-besides the fact thatthey won and we lost, or vice versa. Letit not be admitted that any of us is somaterialistically football-minded that hedoes not vainly endeavor, especially at out-of-Orono games, to rout out something ofkeen human interest, something not neces-sarily connected with football, that willwind up the day triumphantly, automat-ically tie it with a red ribbon, and set itupon the mental throne of honor withother rosy-hued brilliant days.

I.ast Saturday the elements which dis-tinguished the game were of a very loyalsort. They pertained to football-and verystrongly. They taught me a lot aboutfootball uniforms. They made a strongerwoman of me, teaching me to suffer witha subdued embarrassment, looking un-abashed while inwardly I squirmed, andat the same time permitting a deliciouswicked little thrill to run up and downmy spine. And they plunged me, alas,mercilessly, fatefully, head-over-heels inlove.

Oh, Joe????Suddenly, in the last quarter of the

game, out of the mass of flying arms andlegs and cheers, there emerged a footballhero of the first water. Not the kind whoslaps the opposition in the face and knocksthem all around the field with his lefthand on his way to the goal post almostbefore you can wink twice. Nevertheless,a definite, compelling hero who won hisdistinction through an individualistic ap-peal. A stoic, grimly determined, mentallypowerful, self-willed idol. A hero too bigto be bound down by petty conventions.stereotyped form. One who had poiseenough not to run off the field when hefelt some devilish little breezes surrepti-

tiously playing hide-and-seek on the backsof his legs, dancing merrily and, in fact,bellowing out the whole lower half, orwhat remained, of his attire daringly inthe wind. One who had the presence ofmind to bend over gracefully, painstaking-ly slowly and discreetly, and then to flinghis arm, careless-like, across the lowerpart of his back, in no immodest fashion,when he had to bend over; one who wasstoically satisfied to fight for Deah 01'Maine at the critical moment with twolong strips of adhesive tape applied at last.with a saving grace. around the back ofhim, below the waist, while the breezescontinued to make merry, just above andbelow the persevering strips.

And three cheers for my Hero! Did heflinch when someone cried, "Time out forrepairs to Joe!" and "What? PenalizingMaine for indecent exposure!" In spite ofanything anyone wants to say, Smokey J(seproved himself a real honest-to-goodnesshero. 1.ove for school above love for self.And all my co-cd friends, having recov-ered from the first half-dozen series ofrosy warm waves across the countenance,feel that way, too, a little wicked, youknow, but with a deep and reverent re-spect for Joe.

Tut, TutBut how about suggesting plaid shorts to

the coach, Mr. Editor, red, green and yel-low ones, or figured ones-for underwearbeneath the fcsithall pants in future games,so that, in event the next game, whereina player wishes "to come tan," is dull,spectators may be furnished a few mo-ments of entertainment in the way of puz-zling out the pictures painted on the foot-ball undershorts. I don't want to causemy Joe, may the Lord bless him, any moreembarrassment.

Here's to you, Joel You've won suc-cess as a football player and a resolutionof dete llll inetl loyalty for a determinedman in my heart.These football games are likely to go

hard with the co-eds.Signed, Julie

BOWDOIN CONFIDENT

Bowdoin Team's VeteranPowerful Men Are

Hard To Stop

By Erwin E. CooperThe Bowdoin Polar Bears invade

the University of Maine gridironSaturday in an attempt to win theirfirst victory over the Black Bears onthe Maine field since 1921.This game, the forty-first renewal of a

football classic as famous in Maine foot-ball history as the Brown Jug Series be-tween the University of Michigan andMinnesota and the Harvard and Yaleseries, promises to be one of the hardestfought games of State Series football.Bowdoin will take the field a favorite

to break Maine's long winning streak onher home field, while the Maine gridderswill be seeking their first victory since theadvent of the Adam Walsh regime.

To Decide State TitleFor the second year in succession the

outcome of the State Series is at stake.Should Maine beat Bowdoin there wouldbe a tie for the state championship be-tween the two teams and probably Bateswhich is an odds-on-favorite to beat Col-by at Waterville in the final game of thestate series. Seniors of the University ofMaine will be trying for their first victoryover the Polar Bear Gidders.

Despite these facts, Maine football fanswere faced with the undeniable fact thaton paper and by virtue of past perform-ances the Brunswick team seemed as-sured of victory. Bowdoin had won everygame except its encounter with Williams.All Maine could point to was victoriesover Arnold and Colby, a tie with strongRhode Island, and a creditable showingagainst nationally-rated Yale.By comparative scores against the two

teams both Bowdoin and Maine had faced,Bowdoin again should be the favorite.Maine failed to score against Bates (dis-counting the now famous Swaffield touch-down) while Bowdoin beat the Garnet19-7. Against Colby, Maine scored only13 points while Bowdoin boasted thirtypoints over the Mules.

Bowdoin More ExperiencedIn experience, speed, and numbers the

Polar Bears seemed superior. Maine hadonly four men in its starting lineup whohad seen service against Bowdoin last year.Only four Maine men, Elliot, Smith, Ham-lin, and Reidman, played at Brunswicklast year. Ashkenazy, Fitts, Newman,Soule, Karsokas, Melendy, Frey, Nichol-son, and Smith all played against the PaleBlue last year.

Maine's chief offensive weapon in pastyears has been the passing of Fran Smith.Last year the Pale Blue went down toBrunswick and was defeated by a Bow-doin team which turned the Black Bear'sown offensive weapon against it. DaveFitts, tall Bowdoin end playing his lastgame against Maine, was the man whoreached into the afternoon air and caughtthe passes which sent Maine home in de-feat.

Maine's Spirit HighShades of two years ago hung over the

Maine campus all this week as students(Tailed another Maine team which hadexperienced a poor season, a team likewisebeaten on paper, a team which trailed bythirteen points at the end of the first half.a team which recovered from its first halfrout, tied the score, and nearly turned de-feat into victory.

The Politicians WinLast week the Campus was under the impression that something con-

crete was about to be done to eliminate fraternity politics in class elections;

this week it appears that nothing is to be done. There was a bit of a flurry.

and then the all-pervasive lethargy, the inertia which intervenes whenever

a change is suggested, took hold and prevented any reforms.

The inertia is so great, in fact, that the Campus was unable even to

obtain a response to its request for letters on what should be done to make

class officers true representatives of their classes rather than of their frater-

nities. We repeat this request, and we again offer for criticism or approval

the suggestion that a primary election should be instituted as a better method

for determining candidates than the use of nominating committees.

The idea that something should be done about fraternity politics was

first brought forward this year by a group not connected with the Campus.

What has happened to this group? Have they already given up? Are

they accepting meekly a hollow pretense that politics have been eliminated?

The challenge is still present; politics have not been eliminated or reduced;

those who first demanded that there be a change cannot retreat now without

admitting that the politicians are stronger than they are.

Legislative EfficiencyThe Maine legislature has evoked considerable favorable comment for

the dispatch with which it disposed of the business facing the special ses-

sion just held. But there has been comparatively little said about the value

of the steps taken; the writer, indeed, has yet to see a satisfactory analysis

of them.Perhaps the reason for this is that any comprehensive analysis would

lemonstrate how inadequate the legislation was to meet the situation being

:onsidered ; certainly the mighty newspapers of the state would not want

to embarrass the legislature and the governor by calling the public's atten-

:ion to the fact. And then, too, the newspapers obviously are fighting with

dl their strength against a state income tax ; and to point out that the provi-

:ion made by the legislature for financing old age pensions and equalizing

:ducational opportunity was totally inadequate would be to indicate clearly

that they could be financed only by increased taxes. Such an increase

would have to take the form of an income tax, since the sales tax was sowerwhelmingly rejected in last August's referendum.

The legislature may, on the whole, have acted with speed, with so-

:ailed efficiency; it did not, however, solve the problems which drove the

egislators into special session. It met the popular demand for old age pen-

sions and for educational equalization by failing to provide sufficient funds

ior either. Every person who has thought the question through must real- I

ize that adequate funds cannot be obtained except through the imposition I

if a state income tax. The state grange realized this; the legislature prob- 1

slily realized this; but the interests opposed to taxing of the higher incomes

tpparently were too strong for the institution of such a tax.

4 THE MAINE CAMPUS

BEARFACTS

By Bill Saltzman

The scene: Anywhere between Brunswick and Orono.

The characters: The Polar Bear, a haughty gentleman. The Black Bear, a little

wiry chap.

Polar Bear: I see by the papers that we're supposed to meet you Saturday at

Orono.

Black Bear: Beat Bowdoin.

Polar Bear: I really don't see why you're makin' such a fuss. You haven't got

a chance.

Black Bear: Beat Bowdoin.

Polar Bear: Just look over the record. We've got more men. We've got more

experience. We've got more speed. In fact, we've got everything (including the

Maine co-eds).Black Bear: Beat Bowdoin.Polar Bear: We socked Bates, and Bates socked you. We beat Colby 30 to 0,

and you only beat Colby, 13 to 0.Black Bear: Beat Bowdoin.Polar Bear (a little disturbed). Wonder what's wrong with this Bear. All he

says is—Black Bear: Beat Bowdoin.Polar Bear (trying to pull himself together) : Umph, Beat Bowdoin. What a

laugh—beat Bowdoin. Impossible.

Black Bear: Beat Bowdoin.Polar Bear (a little feverish) : Still saying "Beat Bowdoin." I wish he'd stop,

though. It's gettin' on my nerves.Black Bear: Beat Bowdoin.Polar Bear: Good gosh, that phrase is driving me nuts. Wish he'd stop.

Black Bear: Beat Bowdoin.Polar Bear (his fingers are now shaking; his face twitches; his eyes roll wildly;

his voice cracks) : Cut it out cut it out, fella, will you, cut it out. You and your

"Beat Bowdoin."Black Bear: Beat Bowdoin.Polar Bear: Stop, please, stop.

Black Bear: Beat Bowdoin.Polar Bear (faintly) : Stop stop.

Black Bear: Beat Bowdoin.Polar Bear: Stop B-B-Beat Bowdoin Beat Bowdoin I'm going mad

Beat Bowdoin .. Beat Bowdoin.

Black Bear: Beat Bowdoin.Polar Bear : .. Beat Bowdoin, Beat Bowdoin, damn you, Beat Bowdoin....

(Polar Bears falls to the ground. Black Bear smiles; mutters "Beat Bowdoin,"

and disappears.)Moral: Beat Bowdoin.

Predictions: We went from one extreme to the other last week. Our Colby-Maine

prediction, result and score, was exactly right, but our Jayvee-Coburn prediction, re-

sult and score, was not even close. Incidentally, our contemporary on The Freshman

predicted the correct score of the Bowdoin-Bates game-19-7. We picked 13-7, which

is only a touchdown away.Here's this week's predictions. What do you think?

Maine 13—Bowdoin 7Frosh 7—Bridgton 0

Maine, the underdog, may have the spirit to beat Bowdoin—we hope so. The

frosh-Bridgton scrap should be close with breaks probably determining the winner.• • * • * S * *

Poor spirit . A rally was held the other day, a surprise rally for the team. As

rallies go, it was a good rally, but as freshman spirit goes, it was a poor rally. About

300 students participated, but there should have been about 300 more. During the

Bates HarriersWin State Meet

Don Smith and Ralph Clifford tied for

first in the state cross country meet on the

Colby Course Saturday but despite their

efforts the Pale Blue harriers, for the fist

time in more than five years, lost the titleto Bates.

Placing four men within the first six,the Bobcats scored 27 points to 31 forMaine and 68 for Colby. Rollins of aBteswas the third man to finish, with Bridges,Wallace, and Burnap, all of Bates, tieingfor the next three places.

The third Maine man to finish wasJackson who took seventh place in themeet with Dequine of Maine taking eighthplace. Sheppard of Bates finished ninthwith three Colby men, Charboneau, Dris-ko and Stevens taking the next threeplaces, respectively. Whicher of Mainetook thirteenth place and Hartwell ofMaine finished in fourteenth position.

NOTICE

A torchlight parade will precedea Bowdoin Rally and Bonfire to beheld at 6:30 p.m., Friday evening,at the Memorial Gym. All studentsare requested to attend.

Bridgton MeetsFrosh SaturdayAs an appetizer to the Bowdoin-Maine

game, the long-debated question of

whether a speedy and deceptive freshmanbackfield is able to cope with a strong andheavy Bridgton forward wall will finallybe settled Saturday.

Neither the freshmen nor Bridgton hasbeen defeated, the only mar against theFisher coached eleven being a tie withRhode Island State freshmen. An indica-tion of the Bridgton team's power is itsrecent victory over the Bowdoin Jayvees,52 to 0. None the less, however, ourfreshmen in three games have rolled up52 points to none for their opponents.

A primary cause for Bridgton's fineyear is its line. The line, led by OrenShiro, an all-Maine tackle, will outweighthe first-year men by at least ten pounds

to the man. Crashing along with this lineis a 210 pound all-Connecticut fullback.The plebes, however, will be in prime

physical condition to meet this heavyonslaught. Charlie Arbor's injured leghas sufficiently healed and Bullet Har-nish's injured shoulder has responded totreatment. Roger Stearns, who received

a slight concussion in the Jayvee game,will also be able to start.

parade, an effort was made to get freshman boys from the dormitories, but, for some

strange reason, only a few responded. We, ourselves, dropped into a fraternity house

to procure a few supporters. In an easy chair was a freshman—obviously being

rushed—smoking a long, black pipe. He didn't even answer our exhortations.

Many freshmen along the road likewise refused to participate. Indeed, except for

the freshman football team, most of the parade consisted of upperclassmen and fresh-

man women. Surely, with a record class, a larger representation of freshman boys

should have been present. Two years ago, the freshman boys turned out almost 100

per cent strong for a similar rally. This year, the freshmen appear to lack Maine spirit.

How about it, freshmen—why PiOi do something about it?

Maine Defeats Colby, 13-0For 1st State Series Win;Gleason Fractures Hand

Hamlin and Mayo StarAs Bears TrounceMcCoy's Mules

Despite frequent fumbles in scoring ter-ritory, the University of Maine footballteam, showing its best form of the season,defeated Colby's Mules, 13 to 0, Saturdayat Waterville.

Although giving the Pale Blue an op-portunity to tie for state championshiphonors, the victory brought to an end thecollegiate football career of husky WallyGleason, the Bears' All-Maine tackle, whoreceived a fractured artn during the game.

One of Brice's real 60-minute MCH, thetall South Portland senior was a bulwarkof strength in the line, and his absencefrom the Bowdoin game this Saturdaywill materially weaken the Bears.

"Gleason was one oi the best tackles Ihave ever had," asserted Brice after thecontest, "He was a great player and agreat competitor. He loved the game, andbecause he loved it, he played outstandingball. It is with deep regret and sorrowthat we lose Gleason."

But, while the Bears lost a tackle, theyalso found another one. The newcomerwas Don Mayo, whose exhibition in Sat-urday's contest was really outstanding.Substituting for Dick Hayes at the righttackle post. Mayo, better known for his lit-erary skill than his football prowess, in hisfirst play downed a Colby player for alarge loss and continued his great brand ofball throughout the game.

The game also emphasized the fact thatSmokey Joe Ilamlin, All-Maine left endfor the Pale Blue, is not only a good endbut a great end. Hamlin was magnificent.He smashed up the Colby interference andmade numerous tackles. He blocked apunt to pave the way for Maine's firsttouchdown; he caught the touchdown passfor Maine's initial six-pointer; and henailed many Colby backs for losses.

Hamlin's and Mayo's exhibitions, whileoutstanding, were perhaps only typical ofthe aroused Maine team that completelyoutplayed Colby. Five times the Bearsdrove down into scoring territory. Twicethey scored, but, on the other three occa-sions, they fumbled within the ten-yardline and Colby recovered.In all, the Pale Blue eleven made 14

first downs to three for Colby, totaled 190,yards from scrimmage, and completed 10passes out of 15 for a gain of 86 yards.Franny Smith, Maine's great heaver, had

telling blow?

Spirit ran high on the Maine team thisweek despite the fact that the Colby gamehad dealt the Maine team what may proveto be a hard blow. Wally Gleason, All-Maine tackle, suffered a broken forearm

thand has played his last game for e PaleBlue.

To fill his position Brice shifted DonMayo, substitute right tackle, back to lefttackle. Mayo is inexperienced, but lastweek at Colby, substituting for DickHayes at right tackle, he played a stand-out game.

Behind Mayo, Brice had Lenny Berko-witz, another substitute who was usedagainst Colby last Saturday. Berkowitz,hardluck man of the squad, has been outwith a shoulder injury since the beginningof the year, but against Colby last weekhe seemed to be rounding into condition.

Otherwise, the Maine lineup remainedintact except that Doc Gerrish will onceagain take over the starting assignmentin place of Pete Mallet at fullback.

his best day of the year, and in addition,also proved to be a very fine broken-fieldrunner.

Maine's first touchdown, coming in thesecond period, was a typical Brice gesture.Two plays after Smokey Joe Hamlin hadblocked and recovered a Colby punt on theColby 30-yard line, Franny Smith faked apass and raced off tackle for a first downon the Colby 16-yard line. Gerrish plungedthrough center, but not before he hadpassed the ball to Smith. Colby, as wellas the crowd, was fooled, and all theMaine blond bomber had to do was fadeback and toss a touchdown pass to Ham-lin out in the clear.Don Mayo, recovering a Colby fumble

on the Colby 21-yard line, set the stagefor the second Maine touchdown in thefourth period, after fumbles had stoppedMaine from scoring on three other occa-sions. Gerrish roared through center forseven yards; got half that distance on hisnext try; and then was held for no gain.Smith crossed up the Colby team by

heaving a seven-yard toss to Elliott whowas downed on the three-yard line. An-other touchdown was inevitable, butwould Maine again fumble and lose heropportunity Gerrish supplied the answerby plunging over for the six-pointer twoplays later. Elliott's drop-kick failed.

Coburn Eleven TopsMaine Jayvees, 7-6

A light, hard-lighting Coburn team

combined a forward pass and a stop watch

to edge out the Maine Junior Varsity at

the Waterville field last Saturday morn-

nin, 7-6.

Coburn behind 6-0 in the fourth period

after a sustained Maine drive in the early

part of the third quarter had resulted in

Griffith's driving over for Maine's only

score, was backed up almost to her own

goal. Two line plays were smothered. The

Coburn team caught the Maine secondary

off guard. A short accurate pass by La-

liberte was taken by Brophy in full stride

just ahead of the safety man. It was a

race all of the way to the Maine goal line,

70 yards distant, with the Coburn man

just holding his one stride margin.

After this startling change in the situ-

ation the J.N'.'s began to fight harder. The

kickoff was carried back by Maine to

their own 40. An end sweep and a slash-

ing off tackle thrust brought a first down.

Here Maine stalled temporarily when a

succession of passes went incomplete hut

an exchange of kicks brought her to the

Coburn 28 yard line.Fighting against time, Maine quickly

made a first down on two line thrusts anda short pass. A left end sweep carried

to the ten yard line. With one minute toplay and goal to go Coburn took an offside
