The DeForest school Round Table presents him in a lec- ture, "Working Wonders for Your City? Dr. Bailey is director of the Cleve- land School of Art and the John Hunt- ington Polytechnic Institute. He is President of the Cleveland Society of Artists and of the Court of Honor of Boy Scouts of Cleveland, chairman of the Lincoln Memorial commission, and a member of societies of architects, writers, sculptors and of educational organizations. His literary work includes over twenty books and editorship of the School Arts magazine for sixteen years. "The Arm Around the Boy," 1s one of his interesting stories. Dr. Bailey is conceded to be the "Wonder Man" in the knowledge of Fine Arts. His lectures are dazzling with scintillating bits of philosophy, religion, poetry and ethics, it is stated. The Journal of Education says of him, "He has the grace and ease of conversation with no trace of oratory, no gestures, no dependence upon play of voice or features, just rippling phrases of unexpected interpretations of every-day life." Purple Cagers to Encounter Strong Wolverines Next Northwestern's basketball team which won three out of five practice starts, including a victory over Notre Dame, will meet Michigan here this Saturday evening in the conference opener. Both teams are reputed to be stronger than they were last season and an interesting engagement is in prospect. A capacity crowd of 5,800 will pack Patten gym for the encounter. Nearly five hundred Michigan alumni, resi- dents of Chicago and vicinity have purchased a block of seats and will be on hand to whoop it up for the Maize and Blue. The game will mark the second capacity crowd of the sea- son, the Notre Dame game last week being a sell out. Coach "Dutch" Lonberg, the new Purple menter, is expected to start the same five players who successfully turned back Notre Dame in their re- cent contest. Two sophomores, Rut Walter of Kokomo and Frank Marsh- all of Chicago, will be in the starting line-up, the former at center and the latter at running guard. Waldo Fish- er and Hal Gleichmann, forwards and Luke Johnsos, a guard, are the vet- eran members of the first string quin- tet. Michigan will bring a strong squad Evanstonward headed by Captain Har- rigan, one of the outstanding guards of the Western Conference. Other highly touted Wolverines include Oss- terbann and Raber, forwards, Chap- man, center, and McCoy, guard. This is practically the same team that sailed through to a Big Ten championship last season and which is entertaining fond hopes of repeating the feat. EMINENT SCIENTIST TO ADDRESS SUNDAY CLUB Harold D. Fish, Noted Biologist and Authority on Heredity, to Be Heard January 8 "Rarely has the public platform been favored by a lecturer with such wide academic experience as that of Harold D. Fish," reads a comment concerning the speaker scheduled to give the address at the Wilmette Sun- day Evening club, January 8. Mr. Fish, one of the outstanding scientists of the times, is to speak on the sub- ject, "Near a Jungle Laboratory." Mr. Fish is of English and French parentage. He comes of a family of New England physicians and teachers and was educated at Dartmouth, Harvard and Columbia. He has di- rected university departments of zoo- logy in the states of Kansas, Ohio, and Pennsylvania, and has served on the research staffs of the Pittsburgh Skin and Cancer Foundation and the Department of Genetics of the Car- negie Institute of Washington. He is a member of numerous scientific organizations, president of the Research Society of Tropical Biology, and a member of the Committee on Tropical Research of the National Research Council. To Mr. Fish belongs the credit of having organized the first university classes ever conducted in a tropical jungle. In view of the success of these undertakings, William Beebe has turned over to him the jungle labor- atory at Kartabo, British Guiana, South America, together with all its equipment. : To the interest of his story and clearness of presentation, Mr. Fish adds the authority of a scientific scholar and investigator. He has ar- ranged to accept extensive platform engagements this season in order to further the plans for a wider useful- ness in the development of biological science in the tropics. His lectures are of especial interest to students of Heredity, a field of science to which he has devoted a wealth of time and energy. His lectures are effectively illustrated with stereopticon views.
