Discussed by
Council
"Feeling that Sigma Delta Chi as an organization is responsible for the publication of the Sour Owl, and that the fraternity as a whole, rather than the editor and the business manager alone, is to be held for the offensive character of the "Lucky Number" of the magazine, the Men's Student Union, and the $100 assistance for publication of the "La 'In' Number," said Paul Rienke, press officer of the council, the morning.
This day, n was reached Wednesday day mgh . the meeting of the Men's Student Council in Green hall. At the same meeting it was also decided that all exchil ac of the "Lucky Number" be withdrawn from the mails, this ac will be withdrawn from the quality of material in the magazine in the notion of the council.
Date for Game Discussed
Since the University of Missouri has voiced the opinion that Missouri prefers Thanksgiving day as the date for a game, the ball game, which matter was, is discussed. According to Riemetsch, the council, feeling that the best interests of the students demand that the game be played on the Saturday preceding Thanksgiving, voted unanimously against any phone which might lead students to play the game, and wish to make it known their opinion that the Saturday preceding Thanksgiving is the better day for the game. They feel that since the students can see the game and be at home by Thanksgiving under pressure, the game should remain as it is.
Resolutions were passed by the council recommending the mailing of letters to the University of Kansas to patrons and parents of students in the University making them to prohibit the use of computers and school. This action, in the opinion of the council, would tend to remove some of the problems of the campus at present. The council's criticisms of the use of cars by students is that the cars make walking on the campus dangerous, increasing possibility for wrecks, that the cars add greatly to the expense of the students operating them; with little benefit from the added expense, and that there is the possibility of lower morale among the students who participate in the Committee Amended by Riesner
A committee was "appointed at the meeting of the council by Reeniels, with John Beaty as chairman to investigate and consider a raise in the salaries of the editor and business manager of the 1927 Jayhawker, who began to begin and continue with next year's annual, should they be granted.
Another committee, consisting of Douglas, Smith and Rice, was appointed by Rietsch to investigate allegations against the council which are now before the council. Numerous other violations have been rumored, and suspected parties are to be watched and an attempt to continue evidences in their cases.
The defacement of University property, either on the grounds or within the buildings was considered, according to Rienlets, and the council decided that enough incalculable defacement would occur to warrant action against it and to provide punishment for the same. Accordingly, a committee, consisting of Patterson, Nobile, and McGrew was appointed to make investigations of the matter and to establish a public punishment for the offenders.

Faculty Resolution Says Only Excessive Flunks Must Be Removed
It is no longer necessary for students to repent courses in which they have failed since the number of flunks exceeds ten hours, according to a resolution passed by the faculty at a recent meeting.
The statement reads, "A student who has failed in more than ten hours of class and has a poor attendance immediately a sufficient number of the failed hours to make up the excess."
"The repetition," according to the resolution, "must include all of the course and not some portions of it only. Failure in ten credit hours or less shall not involve required re-enrollment in these courses. No staircase graduated with more than ten hours of unresolved failures on his record."
The Administrative committee at the faculty, under the direction of Dean J. G. Brandt, also recommends the following requirements which the faculty is still considering: "Ten hours of instruction taken before the end of the sophomore year except by students offering, for entrance, at least three units in one foreign language; provided, however, that students offering for entrance two units in a single language may attend at least four hours additional in that language."

Labor Sponsors New Bill
(United Press)
New South Wales Law Aimed to Protect Farmers
Sydney, Australia. Jan. 28.—To meet the middle problem which is irritating Australia much the same as is irritating New Zealand, the government of, New South Wales is sponsoring a bill providing for the protection of agents dealing in farm produce.
The bill which has already passed the lower house of the legislature and is expected soon to pass the upper house is aimed at the various activities of the dealer which are alleged to be engaging in the farmer and higher to the consumer.
Under the terms of the bill farm produce agents are to be licensed and will be required to lodge large fidelity bonds with the government.
All money banked by the agent would have to be banked in a trust account open to government inspection. Fraudulent accounting would render the agent liable to three years' imprisonment. The accounts would also be provided for destruction of marketable produce, the spreading of false rumors, forestalizing, and the resale of produce within three miles of the place of purchase.
