PERRY, "PARKHURST" Pope. “Good morning!" do you belong to the ring? ___ PIATT made a good move when he got Pope to do the "Judas Iscariot act." They are using Pope as a cats paw to pull the chestnuts out of the fire. JIMMY OWENS, who has had the action of the Athletic board, in regard to the management of the track Athletic team, burned into his mind, is simply "tickled to death" with Pope's work. We have decided to add one more man to our staff. Mr.W.H.Wynn Jr.will help Mr. Lyon in the local department. All those who are acquainted with the "Genial Willie" will recognize the fact that we have made a good strike. THE editors of College Life and the Beacon are throwing stones at each other. They both seem to live in glass houses. The students of Iowa State University seem to be having a little fuss of their own. The Athletic Association has decided not to play either foot ball or base ball. This may mean the dissolution of our foot ball league. We do not care to be led into a controversy with the local man on the Journal. He ought, however, to "stick to his knitting" We have no doubt but that he is an exemplary man in his place. If the faculty will defer the publication of their new paper until next September the "Courier" will probably suspend. But our contracts run until June and to realize anything on our ads we shall have to continue until then. SINCE writing the article on "spotters" we have decided that we were wrong in a few instances and wish to retract a few sayings. We think that the University has not employed "spotters," and that the charges against a prominent "barb." are false. All the rest we still maintain. The Advisory Committee realizing the wishes of the students and especially the wishes of the base ball men, decided to allow our team to play with the "Blues." This is certainly a move in the right direction. If this keeps on the faculty may dictate and welcome. We have a flourishing University and one of which we should be proud. We should take as much pride in our University as Yale men do in theirs Just because Yale is in the east it should be no dearer to a western man than our own University. Stand up for K.U! Be loyal men and women and we shall have a college that will be second to no other in the west. Why talk about this
