JAYHAWKER MEN KICK ON SPLITTING PROFIT
Harsh and Hackney Ask Council to Let Them Run Annual Unassisted
SAY THE PLAN IS A FAILURE
Seniors Assert Their Share of Proceeds Isn't Enough to Pay for Doing the Whole Job
Leon Harsh and Blair Hackney, editor and business manager for the 1915 Jayhawker, and Guy Von Schiltz, business manager for this year's annual, appeared behind the doorlight, and protested against council participation in the business of issuing the annual. President Bottomly appointed a committee composed of Henry Shinn, John Greenstreet, and Floyd Nutting, to investigate the matter, to whether or not the protest was well-founded.
The present managers of the annual say the Council committee did no work. The Council guarantee the editors that they will not be made to suffer personal loss, under the operation of the rule.
The rule by which the president of the Council appoints two councilmen to share in issuing the annual, and also the profits, went into effect this year, after last year's Jayhawker proved a financial failure. Leslie Dodd and Frank Miller were appointed by Dodd this year.
The business manager and the editor are each allowed a hundred dollars, and half of this the Councilmen get half. Harsh and Hackney say that the experience of this is especially unsatisfactory, and that the division of the profits it not worth while to hold a Jayhawk office.

GET SUMMER NEWS OF K. U. FOR FIFTY CENTS
And Have the Four Bits Apply on Your Sub Next Fall
In order to give everyone who desires the University Daily Kansas next year an opportunity to subscribe this spring without paying the full amount of $2.50 for the subscription a new offer is given.
By paying fifty cents before the last of May anyone can become a subscriber to the Daily for next year and receive the Summer Session Kansan on Friday. If Browder paid $200 must be paid on or before Nov. 1, 1915, or the subscriber's name will be dropped from the list.
"We realize," the circulation manager said this afternoon, "that there are few who like to deal in futures and hate to pay the $2.50 at this time for a subscription for next year's paper.
"But we felt that it would be to a future subscriber's advantage to get, his name on the list this spring. If his name is on the list, the Daily Kansan can be delivered promptly to him on the first issue. We try to be as prompt as possible in getting the paper to readers. So when there is always so much confusion and delay it is a hard matter to do this."
The Summer Session Kansan is issued by the students in the department of journalism. The Daily Kansan board has nothing to do with its weekly paper and will be issued during the six weeks' session.
The students who subscribed for the semi-weekly last year will remember that several news stories of special interest to University students appeared in its columns. The commencement news was fully covered in the first two issues and this alone should make the paper popular during the spring. During the summer session the educational convention and the lectures that are given for the students are fully reported.
All students or members of the faculty who desire the University Dally McKenna for next year and the Faculty of Arts may get both by accepting the offer.

NO HOPE OF FINDING LOST PLATINUM, SAYS FACULTY
Out Board of Administration May Come to the Rescue of Indebted Students
Students in the department of chemistry are taking a little more care about locking up their valuables, since the platinum theft week before last. About $240 worth of platinum was stolen at that time.
The authorities have notified all the large jewelry houses in this part of the country of the theft and there are some hopes that the guilty one will be caught. According to some of the professors in the department, little can be expected, owing to the ease with which the metal can be cut into small pieces, so that buy it. Almost any dentist or jeweler, will be glad to get a few dollars worth of it at a reduced rate.
There is a possibility of the Board of Administration coming to the rescue and making up the loss. But whether or not such a thing should come to pass, there will be no $240 spent on that task. The shelf in any of the laboratories of the Chemistry Building any more this year.
Mr. Alfred K. Powell, chemical engineer, '14, has accepted a position research assistant in the agricultural department of the University of Nnebraska.
