UNIVERSITY COURIER. 15 Last Saturday the Senate confirmed the following persons as Regents of the University: A. G. Otis, of Atchison, Prof. Fitzpatrick, of Leavenworth, W. S. White, of Wichita, Judge Humphrey, of Junction City, and S. S. Benedict, of Guilford. The appointments made by Gov. Glick are most excellent ones, and all of them, we think, are well inclined towards the University and its present administration. One thing is particularly noticable, our past board was composed entirely of men living South of the Kansas river. Three of the new Regents live in Northern Kansas, thus making a much fairer distribution of the board. Invitations are out for the Firemen's Ball, which takes place Wednesday evening, February 14th, in Frazer Hall. And now it is Cowdrick who has an addition to his family. Brewster sends his sympathies. Both of these newcomers will be on hand to see their "pa-pas" graduate. Query : Why is an eight-day clock wound every seventh day? Where, Oh, where is Watson ? Mrs. Cora M. Downs has forwarded to Gov. Glick her resignation as Regent-ess of the Kansas State University. We did not know that she was a Regent as she has never been confirmed.—L. Ed. PERSONAL.
