"Huffy" is certainly a "phenom" in the pitching world. It pays in the end not to heed the petty provocations of life. For the last two weeks the KANSAN has been under control of individual board members, while the rest of the "fourteen editors" have been taking a vacation. --might as well content yourself to do all the work, your staff may work for a few weeks, but not longer. Time has proven that the professor did not know whereof he spoke, for none could ask for better work from a body of reporters more or less untrained in newspaper work. They feel that they are responsible for the KANSAN, and that they have a vital interest in it, and their work certainly shows the result of this sentiment. Some of the editor's friends have suggested that the members of the staff get out the paper all the time,that it would be better for him and better for the paper. These are troublous times revolution, re-organization, away with faculty domination, down with a general manager, up with student control are heard on every hand until we hardly know where we are and whither we are drifting. --might as well content yourself to do all the work, your staff may work for a few weeks, but not longer.

The docility and unobtrusiveness of the Baker fraternities are shown by the choice of a St. Bernard—We only wonder that it was not a Shepherd. Judge Green made one of his characteristic addresses Friday morning in chapel to stir up enthusiasm for the coming track meet. No man in the University, excepting the Chancellor, has more influence with the general student body and no man whose words are listened to with more attention than those of the Judge. Never did reporters work better and more faithfully than the KANSAN staff during the last two weeks. When the present editor took charge of the paper, a prominent professor said, "You --and an opportunity of visiting The proposed amendment to the constitution of the Athletic Association given on the first page of the KANSAN should be carefully considered by the student before he casts his vote either for or against. They mean if adopted an entire revolution of athletic control and this revolution in the last two weeks of the school year. That some change in the Athletic situation is needed no student in the University will deny but whether the one suggested is the best one available is another question. If you believe that the thing that will revive student interest in athletics, is student management and control vote for the proposed amendment. If you think that the amendments are moving too fast in too short a time vote against them. A plan which has been suggested and which seems to have many advantages over the old and yet not so revolutionary is to have a Board of Directors of twelve members consisting of four faculty members chosen by the student body, four students chosen likewise, and four alumni appointed by the Chancellor. Go to the meeting prepared to vote carefully and intelligently on the questions at issue. The chipped ice drinks are fine at Dick Brothers, Try the Ice Cream Sandwiches at Wiedemanns.
