The Daily Iowan The Student Newspaper of the State University of Iowa VOL. XVIII - NEW SERIES VOL. III IOWA CITY, IOWA, TUESDAY, JANUARY 21, 1919 NUMBER 47 HAWKEYE'S BRILLIANT COMEBACK DEFEATS NORTHWESTERN FIVE Purple Ahead 20-11 at End of First Half but Fail to Keep Lead OLSON MAKES COUNTER Team Has a .500 Average For Its Eastern Trip-One Minute of Excitement Iowa came back strong Saturday night, after its defeat at the hands of the Maroons, and nosed out a hard fought win over Northwestern. This gives Coach Bannick's men a .500 average for their eastern trip and in a great measure alleviates the bitterness of the Chicago episode. Northwestern apparently had the game cinched at the end of the first half when the score stood 20 to 11 in their favor but they were treated to a great surprise. The Old Gold opened the final period with a snap that soon discouraged the Purple in their intention of playing a stalling game. Slowly but with deadly surety, the battling Hawkeyes narrowed the gap between them and their opponents until the last few minutes, the Evanston five were just one point in the lead. For a time neither team was able to score, the count remaining 28 to 27, then with the one minute left to play, Olson set the large crowed into a frenzy of excitement by tossing the basket that ultimately gave Iowa the victory. Northwestern had an opportunity a moment later to tie the score when a foul was called on an Iowan man, but Wilcox missed the try from the foul line for the Purple, and the final whistle blew as the ball rolled off of the basket rim. For Iowa Olson with five field goals was the star performer. His basket in the last few minutes of the game was responsible for the Hawkeye lead. Berrien, offensively, and Brown, defensively, were also important cogs in the Old Gold machine. Summary of the game: Iowa 29- BFPT Berrien, rf. . . 2 0 3 2 Olson, lf . . . 5 0 0 0 Worth, c . . . 2 0 1 0 Kaufman, rg . . . 0 0 1 0 Brown, lg. . . 2 5 0 0 Nicolaus, rg. . . 1 0 1 0 Northwestern 28- BFPT Marquardt, rf . . . 4 0 2 1 Wilcox, lf . . . 3 4 3 0 Eilson, c. . . 4 0 2 0 Ligare, rg. . . 1 0 2 0 Heineman, lg. . . 0 0 0 0 Young, lg. . .0 0 0 0 Free throws missed-Brown, 5; Wilcox, 4.

HOBEN Vesper Speaker Holds Sacrifice Necessary to Real World Brotherhood Showing that idealism costs, the Rev. Allan Heben of the University of Chicago pointed out in this Vesper lecture in the natural science auditorium Sunday that if real brotherhood is to come from the war there must be sacrifice and less prattling. In a direct but flowing style, the speaker guided the thoughts of his hearers back to the idealistic struggle of the Jews, on through the efforts of the world's idealists-Savonarola, Luther, Shaftesbury, Cromwell, and Roosevelt, to the meaning of the great war. Commenting on the idealism of youth, the Rev. Mr. Hoben pictured the hopelessness of aspiring youth in the face of mature accomplishment. "Life is a relay race," said the speaker. But it takes spiritual nerve to keep going with the other fellow's back ahead of you, grit to carry on when someone else can do better than your best. The pale faces and parched lips of the boys in the trenches proved to the Rev. Hoben that the idealism of democracy costs. if we learn the lesson of the war, we must allow idealism to enter into educational, social, political and religious life. Above all there must be reform in religion. "You can't have my religion unless you pay for it," challenged the speaker. RALLY AND SUPPER FOR Y.W. GROUPS Campaigning for Y.W.C.A discussion groups begins wit ha supper for the promotion force tonight at the Congregation church. One hundred representative girls who make up the promotion force are now at work explaining the movement to students. Following this, a rally will be held Wednesday night at 7:30 in liberal arts auditorium for all student girls Among the speakers will be Sioh-ging Fang, a Chinese student from Coe, and Miss Marian Janes, secretary of the north central field. FRANCESCA ZARAD FRENCH PRIMA DONNA COMING NEXT WEEK Interprets Foreign Composers But English Predominates in Her Program "Francesca Zarad, the French prima donna soprano, is to be classed only with such artists as Gluck, Alda, Galli-Curci and other stars prominently before the public,' writes Norman Hapgood in Leslie's Magazine. Madame Zarad will be heard in concert at the natural science auditorium Monday and Tuesday evenings, Jan. 27-28, under the auspices of the University music council. Her programs cover a wide range of musical literature. English, French, Spanish and Italian composers are represented on the programs, with English works predominating. All foreign language songs will be translated into English by Madame Zarad before she sings them. Madame Zarad brings to her art a broadly educated mind, deep human sympathy and a wonderful experience on the operatic and concert stage of Europe and this country. Devoting her time and talent generously, she is touring the United States for the purpose of raising a fund for the rehabilitation of the blinded soldiers of the Allies. STEFANSSON, ARTIC EXPLORER, COMING Women's League Bringing Famous Alumnus Here for Lecture in March. Vilhjalmur Stefansson, the famous Arctic explorer, an alumnus of the University, will lecture in natural science auditorium March 5, under the auspices of the Women's league. Stefansson is undoubtedly one of the best known explorers of this generation. He has discovered and explored territory beyond the Arctic ranges of America, and he received the Charles P. Daly medal last December for distinguished services and valuable contribution to science, in connection with an expedition for the Canadian government lasting five years. He was graduated from the University of Iowa and took post graduate work at Harvard, and special work at the American Museum of Natural history at New York City. For the past ten years he has devoted (Continued on page four) VICTORY TICKET WINS ALL BUT THREE PLACES Victory ticket of the sophomores won a majority in the election held yesterday afternoon from 3:30 to 5:30.

MARCOSSON TELLS OF FUTURE GERMANY Great Writer Who Speakers Here Thursday Had Thrilling Experiences Abroad Isaac F. Marcosson, who will speak at the natural science auditorium, Thursday, Jan. 23, has had many unusual experiences. Early in career he was associate editor of the World's Work, and for five years was financial editors of the Saturday Evening Post. It was during these five years that he became nationally known as an authority on finance here and abroad. During this time he made several trips to Europe, unconsciously preparing himself for his great work during the war. It was Mr. Marcosson who secured the famous interview with Lloyd George, in 1916, which had such profound influence in causing the United States to enter the war at that time. He was the first American to reach Petrograd after the revolution. After crossing the North Sea on a British warship, he made his way through Norway, Sweden, and Finland and reached the Russian frontier on the morning of April 8, attired in the uniform of a British officer. He subsequently wrote "The Rebirth of Russia" at the Savory Hotel in London, in five days, a feat typical of his energetic, dynamic personality. The part of Mr. Marcosson's lecture most vitally interesting to his American audiences is that dealing with the economic condition of Germany in the future, a subject on which he is well informed. Much of his information on this subject was secured while he was in Switzerland in October, when he talked with many men in close touch with conditions inside Germany, who were able to predict the probably future state of affairs. His lecture is timely, because of his peculiar knowledge of economic conditions on the reconstruction period. Plans are being made for a luncheon to be given by sigma Delta Chi, during Mr. Marcosson's visit in the city, and the Triangle club will help to entertain the distinguished guest of the University. New and old members of Irving institute will meet at Luscombe's studio Wednesday at 12:45 for the Hawkeye picture. PROF. STEPHEN BUSH IS IN EDUCATIONAL Y.M.C.A. SERVICE Has Been in Five Big Offensives Since March and Prizes His Experiences INTERPRETED FOR DYING Sixteen American Professors Are To Advice American Students In French Universities Prof. Stephen H. Bush is now in the educational service of the Y.M.C.A. in Paris where he is co-operating with the minister of education and the leaders of the American Expeditionary forces to effect a new program for the army. Sixteen American professors are to be appointed to positions as advisers to American students in French universities. Other plans are being furthered. It is expected that American soldiers who wish to study in France will be given their passage money and have additional financial assistance. Glad He Was There Since March 21, Professor Bush has been in five big offensives including the second battle of the Marne, Picardy, and the counter offensives near Soissons. Speaking of the Soissons offensive he says, "I am eternally glad that I was at the heart of the great offensive of July 18, and that I saw the great plan develop in all its details." He has been all along the lines from Amiens to Rheims and east into Lorraine where his division led the army of occupation in its advance. He writes how glad he was to have been able to witness the liberaton of the people of Alsace and Lorraine from German rule. Professor Bush attributes the love of these patois speaking inhabitants of Alsace and Lorraine for France to the fact that the French do not disturb their local customs and permit wide liberty in other affairs. Spoke Many Languages In the first aid stations Professor Bush performed invaluable service. He interpreted the faltering speech of the wounded and dying whose language was unfamiliar to the doctors. He writes that he has often spoken four languages in ten minutes. He is now educational director of the Morrocan division and says that the Boche seized everything they wished and either kept it themselves or sold it to their officers. The German government building in Morocco, a French possession which the Germans said would some day be the palace of German governor, is now rented by the French government as a school, Rent is paid in a fund to be given Germany after the war. NOTICE TO CADETS Every freshman and sophomore student in the college of liberal arts or applied science, who is not excused by the committee on military affairs, is required to take military training. The failure to register at the military headquarters on the part of a few of these men is delaying the military program. All cadets are asked to register at once, as this delinquency will be held against their military records. CAPT. A. L. LANE.
