July 21, 1928 WINNETKA TALK 2,868 of Northwestern Alumni, From List of 4,500, in Professions Refuting the popular idea that col- lege men are being graduated largely into the bond business, Warren Piper, a well known alumnus of Northwest- ern university, has compiled interest- ing figures regarding the occupations of the alumni of his alma mater. He avers, writing the article, "Your Job and Mine," that introduces a booklet by that title advertising his business as diamond importer, that analysis of 4,500 Northwestern alumni indicates that there are 2,868 men practicing the major professions of law, medicine and dentistry. These 4,500 "grads" are listed in the classified business section of the Chicago directory--part of the 7,000 names appearing in the directory of Northwestern alumni in Chicago. Of these almost 25 percent--1,017 to be exact--are lawyers, Mr. Piper points out. There are 929 dentists, 922 doc- tors, 260 accountants, 179 manufac- turers, 135 men dealing in invest- ments, 156 educators (including 102 associated with the university), 99 real estate men, 92 salesmen, 90 ad- vertising men and 90 insurance men, 79 bankers, 78 druggists, 67 merchants, 59 clergymen, 57 engineers, 39 publish- ers, 25 printers and engravers, 29 con- tractors, 21 judges, 19 chemists, 18 journalists, 12 mail order men, 10 automobile dealers, seven musicians, six in the transfer business, one artist, one undertaker and one diamond im- porter. The fact that 2,868 men are en- gaged in the major professions, re- futes the idea, in Mr. Piper's opinion, that college men have lost their ideal- ism and gone money-mad. Among those who do go into business, how- ever, there is general tendency now, he points out, for men from some colleges to crowd into certain lines, such as bonds, insurance and adver- tising: He deplores this because of its seeming that they are entering certain lines because they are con- sidered good business rather than going into the particular field to which their talents are adapted. "After 18 years of business life," he states, "I am convinced that the prin- cipal difference between success and failure lies in doing that one thing which every man enjoys the most, for that is certainly the work for which he is best fitted by nature and in which he can succeed regardless of whether it is considered a good field or not." Hanley, Minus Fourteen Vets, Lays Grid Plans Minus the services of fourteen let- termen, several of whom were of all- conference calibre, Coach Dick Han- ley, Northwestern's football mentor, is beginning to plan for the fall grid campaign with an unusually heavy schedule chalked up for him. The season opens with Butler, Oct. 6. Instead of the usual two practice games, Ohio will be met Oct. 13 at Dyche stadium. Then come in suc- cession Kentucky, Illinois, Minnesota, Purdue, Indiana and Dartmouth. Be- sides this formidable outlay of oppon- ents there is a second team schedule including the Loyola varsity, the Notre Dame reserves, the Illinois re- serves, the Indiana reserves and the Carroll college varsity. Veterans who will be back are Capt. Holmer and Achers, fullbacks; Calder- wood, Haas and Bergherm, half- backs; Levison, Fox and Rojan, quar- terbacks; Hazon and Sinkler, tackles: Dart and Andersen, guards; Verdell. end, and Erickson, center. Reserves from last vear's varsity are Carter and Clarr, halfbacks; Spade, Singleton and Kenty, guards, and Cool and Vanden- berg, tackles. Voters' Column By Hoyt King Another hurdle was successfully made by the special prosecutors of political corruption in having the legal- ity of the special grand jury sustained. In spite of opposition by the alliance of State's Attorney Crowe's official family, including certain members of the County Board, Sheriff Graydon, Bailiff Snow of the Municipal Court and Commissioner Hughes, the special prosecutors have secured funds to in- vestigate and indict, and police with authority to make arrests. These steps have been secured with the aid of the Bar association, the Association of Commerce, the official help of Coun- ty Judge Jarecki, and Chief of the Municipal Court Olson, and now the court has sustained the legality of the jury. In his brief decision on the point raised by the defense that a special grand jury could not act while a regu- lar grand jury was sitting, Judge Com- erford quoted the statute: "The judge of any court of record of competent jurisdiction may order a special venire to be issued for a grand jury at any time when he shall be of opinion that public justice requires it." He said: "The legislature could easily have said, 'At any time when there is no grand jury in session, the court may summon a special venire for a grand jury when he shall be of opinion that public justice requires it" The legis- lature did not do so. It said, 'at any time." " These four lawyers representing the indicted friends of Morris Eller, can- didate for drainage trustee, might just as well have read into the act, the words, "except in the dark of the moon." Their appeal to the court was an insult to its intelligence. Doubtless the defense did not anticipate coming before a judge who had the people's interest at heart. The outcome has been contrasted with the proceedings several years ago when State's Attorney Crowe secured a special grand jury and the services of Ex-judge MacDonald in investigating city and school board graft. The con- tinuance of that jury from month to month was found not legal and all in- dictments fell down. ---- Political criminals are beginning to fear. Of course they do. form and color. future.
