This delegate will be sent to European countries for the purpose of organizing clubs to further cosmopolitanism. The ultimate object of these organizations is to foster this movement that, as a result, there will be no more wars. All of the Cosmopolitan clubs in America are combining their efforts to send a delegate who will attempt to carry out this project. JOURNALISM OFFERS FIELD FOR RESEARCH Lee White Suggests Subjects For Scientific Graduate Study of the Newspaper That the newspaper is a worthy and fruitful field of research was demonstrated by Lee White of The Detroit News in his lecture in the natural science auditorium Friday morning. Mr. White showed how scientific journalism has invaded the old curriculum of the colleges of liberal arts and how the number of persons getting advanced degrees for research in journalism is increasing rapidly. "The newspaper stands with the public school and the church as the defender of our civilization," Mr. White declares. "It is an indicator of social forces in America and a product of American democracy." Files of old newspapers and magazines are the sources from which rhetoricians learn the development of the English language and the literary style of different periods. The speaker showed how journalistic productions are of concern to the historian, sociologist, political scientist, psychologist, and persons interested in public health, sanitation and other problems. Various subjects of research in journalism were outlined by the experienced editor and instructor, among them problems bearing on military secrecy, the psychology of newspaper propaganda, censorship, and waste of paper in headlines. The growth of advertising from the early period when almost the only advertisements were those of quack medicines, was briefly trace. The editorial department, however, he declared to be the rock foundation of the newspaper which should both inform and persuade, according to Mr. White. TWO IOWANS ATTEND FRENCH UNIVERSITY Lieut. Melville H. Miller and Lieut. Henry J. Kroeger, formerly students in the University, are now registered in the University of Montpelier, Montpelier, France. Lieut. Miller, who finished his junior year in the University in May, 1917, and went to the officers' training camp at Fort Snelling, has been with the 88th division. Lieut.

Commercial and international law, Spanish, philosophy, geography, and history are the subjects they are studying. the language of the University is, of course, French. Upon his return to America, Lieut. Miller intends to get his B. A. degree from the University of Iowa. [3rd column]] FOUR PROFESSORS DISCUSS PHILOSOPHY AND RECONSTRUCTION Michigan, Iowa, Chicago, Texas Professors Tell of Function of Philosophy LUNCHEON AT SEASHORE'S Representatives Are Present From Fourteen Different Colleges and Universities Four prominent professors of philosophy led the discussion on "The Function of Philosophy In Social Reconstruction" yesterday afternoon in the most important feature of the entire program of the Western Philosophical association. The subject was treated in four different ways. Prof. A. H. Lloyd, University of Michigan, brought out the philosophical point of view. He divided the world's progress into periods as they were dominated: first, by positive law, then during the renaissance by art, later and up to the present time by science, and now we are beginning a new philosophical era. Dinner at Triangle Club Prof. J. H. Tufts, Chicago University, treated the ethical point of view; Prof. G. T. W. Patrick, University of Iowa, the psychological side, and Prof. G. W. Cunningham, Texas University, came back to the social point of view, using his subject "Philosophy and the Present Situation." This symposium was followed by a dinner at the Triangle club given by the members to all the visitors at 6:30 o'clock. Edward L. Schaub, formerly of the University of Iowa and now of Northwestern University, J. H. Tufts, University of Chicago, and B. H. Bode, University of Illinois, gave toasts. Speak To Classes Professor Schaub spoke to the psychology classes yesterday morning on "Some Mental Factors in the Government's Dealing with the Economic Situation," and Professor Bode spoke to other classes on "The Nature of Truth." This morning's program will convene with a paper "Philosophy and the International Mind" by H. M. Kallen, formerly from Madison, but now of Boston. The other speakers on the program are as follows: "The Two Ideals" by M. C. Otto, University of Wisconsin; "The General Will," E. H. Hollands; "Plural Sovereignty," Norman Wilde, University of Minnesota; and "The Unit of Civilization" by J. H. Boodin, Carleton college, Minnesota. To Hold Business Meeting A short business meeting for the members of the association will be held at 12 o'clock and the session will be closed with a luncheon given by Dean and Mrs. Carl E. Seashore. The following Universities and colleges were represented in this meeting; University of Michigan, University of Chicago, Northwestern University, Lake Forest College, University of Wisconsin, University of Illinois, University of Minnesota, Carleton college, University of Kansas, University of Nebraska, University of Texas, Grinnell college, University of Kentucky, Drake University. A few representatives who are not members of the association were also present from schools such as the University of Kansas, Carlton college, Buena Vista college, and Des Moines college. Students, by a victory bond. [4th column] HAWKEYES WIN FIRST CONFERENCE GAME 6-5 Many Errors and Loose Playing of the Infield are Cause of Chicago's Defeat HAMILTON PITCHES WELL Chicago Almost Turns the Tables in Eighth Inning, but is Balked by Old Gold Coach Jones' Hawkeyes humbled the haughty Maroons yesterday on Iowa field and copped the first conference game of the season by the score of 6 to 5. Hamilton pitched good ball for Iowa considering the lack of practice he has had the last week. He allowed but five hits and pulled himself out of some critical holes by cool, heady playing. Tehrune twirled for Chicago and when he could put them over the plate he was fairly effective. In the first two innings, he found it hard to find the plate and walked in a run for Iowa. In the seventh frame, disaster struck him again when the Hawkeyes stretched two hits into three runs. Numerous errors and the ragged playing of the infield spelled Chicago's defeat. Muckler is Back Stop Jones used Muckler in the back stop position, and the new man played some good ball at times and again not so well. A little more experience in handling the ball should cut down the number of passed balls. Ered, Brown, McIlroy and Crawford were the four Iowa men to get hits off Tehrune. The Old Gold men grabbed their first score, or rather took it on a platter, when the Maroon slab artist walked four men in the very first inning. Three errors coupled by hits by Brown and Crawford gave Jones' men two more runs in the fifth. The Maroons still held a one lead at this stage of the game, but in the seventh, things happened with a vengeance for Old Gold. Ered started the good work with a single in the lucky frame. Chicago infielders then staged a little comedy juggling act with the ball batted by Brownie to the Maroon short stop. Another single by McIlroy brought CROWD ATTENDS MEET Varsity Swimmers Give First Public Exhibition at Armory A packed house saw the varsity swimmers in their first meet last Thursday night at the gymnasium. One of the features of the program was the life saving demonstration by Coach Armbruster and Alvin Hanapel. Relay acts were also a feature of the program. Winners in the events were as follows: 40 yard dash; Hanapel first; Sheppard second. 100 yard swim; Hanapel first; Sheppard second. 100 yard back stroke: Kohrs first; Brown second. 100 yard breast stroke; Dethlefs 1st; Carmichael 2d. The plunge for distance was won by Weidlein. The University high school 40 yard dash was won by McClintock. Lambert and McChesney took second and third places respectively. The funny stunt of the evening was to have been a chase for a carp fish that was turned loose in the pool, but the carp objected to the copper sulphate int he water, and went straight for the bottom refusing to play. [5th column] forth another series of errors by the visitors and before the frame ended Brown, Hamilton and Crawford crossed the plate for the Hawkeyes. Nine Maroons Winged In the eighth, Chicago staged a brief come back and things looked bad for Hamilton for a few minutes. Olson dropped Mucklers throw to first on Elton's bunt. Then Hammy walked the two men. however, two infield flies and a put on first ended the visitor's spurt. The Chicago athletes got a little further in the last inning and managed to boost their run total by one more tally and here the game ended when Hamilton fanned Cole. In all, Hamilton winged nine Maroon men while Tehrune sent ten Hawkeyes over the fan route. The summaries are as follows: Iowa AB. R. H. PO. A. E.

PIPER'S VERSE Prof. Edwin Ford Piper, instructor in English at the University, is receiving favorable criticism on his poems from literary men and magazines. His poem, "Gee-Up Dar, Mules," is reprinted in an April issue of the Literary Digest from the Philadelphia magazine, contemporary verse. Of this poem The Digest says: "A characteristic war poem contributed by Mr. Edwin Ford Piper. We have come to know our negro population much better through the glorious record of negro troops on the western front, and Mr. Piper is very successful in giving a portrait of one of these men that is unmistakable." Professor Piper has two war poems, hitherto unpublished, in The Iowa Alumnus. He is also author of a book of verse called "Barbed Wire and Other Poems." All of his productions deal with life in the Middle West.
