Dean Templin Replies to Anonymous Article About Faculty In New Republic
OBJECTS TO CRITICISM
Miss Regina Woodruff, graduate student in the department of zoology, has been appointed as research assistant to Professor Kofoid, head of the department of zoology in the Department of Zoology. Woodruff's duties will be to assist Professor Kofoid in his studies upon Protozoa.
"Faculty meetings at the University of Kansas are similar to those of any other deliberative body. They are of a purely democratic nature and are open to the public. In all my experience in educational work, I have never heard the teacher be a sweet manner. I would wager the one that wrote the New Republic article is the worst of the lot."
Miss Woodruff is the third student from the department of zoology at U. C. to receive recognition of hisort. Miss Irene McCulloch, alsoissst. Miss Gail MacLeod received their special training in zoology under Miss Nadine Nowlin.
REGINA WOODRUFF MADE
ASSISTANT AT CALIFORNIA
And the faculty? Well, they have read the article and have seen the light. At the regular monthly meeting yesterday, Prof. C. A. Dykstra, of the department of history, acted as official interpreter and read their mistreatment and shrewd commentary presents it. It is said that some of them forgot themselves and laughed out loud, calling the statements absurd.
The foregoing is merely an expression of the views of Olin Tempelan, dean of the college, in regard to an article written for the last number of the New Republic, by a college professor, condemning faculty meetings as trivial, undemocratic, and disrespectful to the student body.
Remington Keilogg was appointed an assistant in vertebrate zoology at the University of California last fall.
Partly cloudy tonight and Saturday,
not much change in temperature.
The Weather
Aside from the humorous part of the program routine business was transacted. Then students were recommended for degrees. New courses were proposed by the departments of Journalism and Zoology, but no action was taken towards installing them.
INCOME BILL GOES TO SENATE TODAY
Friends Making Desperate Fight and Feel Confident of it Passing
MANAGER BILL TO HOUSE
Senate Passes With Amendments and Returns to House for Approval
The Permanent Income Bill for state institutions will come before the Senate at Tepoka today. This bill if passed will give the University a permanent income, and plans could be made for the future without being hampered by the present uncertainty in appropriations.
The measure was defeated two years ago, by a close vote, but friends of the bill are making a hard fight for its passage at this session and most of them feel they have no power. The County Club Union has been active this winter in trying to get students to present the matter to their senators and representatives.
MANAGER BILL 10
The state manager bill, another measure meant for University, will likely come up for passage today. This bill abolishes the three present governing boards and substitutes in their stead, a board of five members appointed by the governor. This book serves as a board of review for the conduct of the state manager who is selected by the board. The bill does not increase the power of the state manager over the power of the state board. The new bill provides for only one commission and one general head for all institutions instead of having many commissions and many managers.
RECEIVES SENATE APPROVAL
The bill passed the house and was sent to the senate, where it was passed and approved; but amendments to it in the senate make it necessary to send it back to the house for approval of the amendments.
One of the amendments which was added to the bill seriously crippled it. This amendment changed the board from a nonsalaried one to a salaried body, allowing each member $3,500 a year. The object of the enemies of the bill was to place the commission under a salary that strikes out the government longer entirely. The amendment for paying the administration board simply creates four soft snaps for office holders, without giving them anything to do.
MANAGER BILL THIRD CHANGE IN FIVE YEARS
A oesperate fight on the bill was made by its enemies who declared that was a form of the one man rule, but the Senate in the senate by a vote of 25 to 11.

TWO INSTRUCTORS RESIGN;
WILL TEACH AT CORNELI
B. P. Young and Walter Welhouse, both of the department of entomology, have resigned their positions here to accept positions at Cornell. Both men ranked as associate instructors here and will be instructors at Cornell. Professor Young's resignation goes into effect June 1, and that of Professor Welhouse September 1.
Expect House to Fight Changes Made by Upper Chamber
SENATE ADDS AMENDMENT
The third change in five years in the form of administration under which the University and other state institutions have operated, is proposed by the state manager bill which passed the senate yesterday. Several radical amendments were tacked on to it by the Senate, and it is thought there will be a hard fight before they will be approved by the house.
For several years the state institutions were under the control of the state Board of Regents. In 1911 a law was passed providing for the present system of the state board of administration and the board of control, which the state manager bill proposed to abolish.
WOULD SAVE $300,000 A YEAR
The bill as passed by the senate provides for a board of managers, consisting of three men appointed by the governor, each at a salary of $3,500 a year. The governor will be an exofficio member. The board of managers is empowered to employ a general business manager without any specified limit as to salary. The house bill provided a salary of $5,000. The business manager will act as general supervisor and purchasing agent. The state accountant has written that such a provision will save the state $300,000 annually. The senate amendment provides that the manager must have lived in Kansas at least a year prior to his appointment.
PROMINENT STUDE FORSAKES GIRL
TO BITE ON OLD FIRE JOKE
GOVERNOR FAVORS MEASURE
The bill is designed to take the administration of public institutions out of politics, and it will automatically abolish several political jobs in the state. Governor Capper is a strong advocate of the bill and appeared before the senate to urge passages that would make it more sensible move made in the history of the institutions which it would effect.
Chancellor Strong expressed no opinion on the bill this morning, saying it was too indefinite as yet. "If it becomes a law, it will be the third form under which we have worked in the last five years. We can only work under the laws that are given us by the legislature."
SECOND ART EXHIBIT HAS MANY K. U. PRODUCTIONS
Photographs of sculpture work, charcoal sketches from life, and designs of jewelry and ceramics are displayed. Water color paintings of water lilies, porcelain decorations two schemes, and magazine illustrations add to the interest.

Co-Ed, Supposedly Left Waiting, Turns the Trick and Gets Last Laugh While Enjoying Other
"Yes, he just left. Who is this talking?"
Dance
It happened at one of the many extremely pleasant fraternity parties given in honor of Washington's birthday Wednesday evening, when every fellow has his best girl and is enjoying every minute more than the one just passed and regretting every second wanted. A certain well known Alpha Tau received a hurried telephone call late in the evening saying that there had been a fire at his home and that he was wanted at once. He hastily made arrangements for a brother, also attentive and much in the favor of the young lady, to care for his date during his absence; and more hastily denoted his hat and left for home. Shortly after a second call came, and a nervous feminine voice asked, "Has Mr. ___ left yet?"
HIGH SCHOOL TEACHERS TO MEET HERE IN MARCH
The Fourteenth Annual Conference of Kansas High Schools and Academies will be held in Lawrence, March 16 and 17. This conference will be under the supervision of the School of Education of the University of Kansas. The program for the two days consists of a series of study programs and lectures by teachers in the schools and colleges of the state.
Some minutes later the gentleman in question returned to the hall, angry and excited, only to find his date very content to finish the evening in the company of the other young man. Suddenly he had a happy thought. He called up a young lady—a freshman—with whom he had neglected to break a date for the party before making another engagement for the same dance, and asked the landlady if he might speak with the girl; but was informed that she was happily attending another dance and with another man. Thus was he twice disappointed in a girl. This caused him to band the receiver on the hook and return to his date, who wondered at the cause of his delay. The party still went on it ceased to be the center of pleasure for many curious minds, since so many more interesting things had taken place. One especially disturbed mind belonged to the young man who had also made two dates for the Sophomore Hop and has as yet not broken either. "His said that 'he who laughs last, laughs best.' At least the girl at the other party says 'tis so.
An event of state wide interest is the annual basketball tournament for the state high school championship, which will be played at this time. The game will be given in Robinson Gymnasium, Saturday, March 17 for all delegates.
BRYAN WILL DELIVER ADDRESS TO SENIORS
Noted Orator Has Accepted Offer to Give Commencement Address
William Jennings Bryan will give the commencement address at the University, according to an announcement made Saturday by F. R. Hamilton, head of the Extension Division. The address, which will be the third by Mr. Bryan at the University, will be given on Wednesday morning, June 6. Mr. Bryan spoke at the University in 1913 when he was a news reporter. Walter Wiley on another occasion he delivered an address to the University Y. M. C. A. On both occasions Mr. Bryan spoke in the Gymnasium.
SAYRE REVISES STANDARDS
In securing Mr. Bryan for the commencement address, the University authorities have secured one of the country's foremost orators and a man who will probably interest University students more than any other man who could have been secured for the address. Mr. Bryan is a graduate of Illinois College at Jacksonville, Illinois, and was valedictorian of his class. In the last twenty years, he has been before the public more than any other man in the country and of the country. For the last few years Mr. Bryan has lectured all over the country on peace. He was not always, however, so strong an advocate of peace. In 1898 he organized the Third Nebraska Volunteers and served as a colonel in the Spanish-American War.
The State Board Recommends Change—Will be Presented to National Committee
Dean L. E. Sayre, of the School of Pharmacy, presented to the State Board of Health yesterday his proposed revision of the standards of spices. The board recommended that the Standards Committee, of which Dean Sayre is a member, confer with the Washington and secure its ratification and adoption. After this conference the Board of Health will act upon the revision during its annual meeting in June. The proposed changes are of a technical character. The per cent of ash is reduced in all spices except ginger, the percent of volatile extract is raised in spice and other changes are made free from adulterations. Such changes in standards are made necessary by the changes in the production of spices.

HOW DID YOU CELEBRATE?
Students Indulged in Every Form of Recreation From Motoring to Sleeping
"I would simply die if I had to sit in school a day like this," explained a fair co-ed, as she with two others strolled into a soda dispensary.
In fact with the thermometer registering seventy-five, yesterday was an ideal day on which to celebrate Washington's birthday. Strolling to Woodland and Cameron's seemed to be the most popular form of recreation. From this the means of celebration included everything from dancing to overhauling Fords, horseback riding, lined with motor cars all day, and even night for motoring.
To keep in spirit with the day, a company of boy scouts shouldered small flaps and hiked eleven miles. Also there were a few who slept.
