In fact, it has been dead for some time, but recently there were signs that it might come back to life after its long rest in peace. These sigma of life were caused by the discussion going on in the Student Council on the question of that august body taking over certain of the disciplinary powers which at the present time are exercised by University authorities. At last it looked as though the representatives were about to resolve one of the ideas thereactically at least have stood for —"more central over student against by the student himself." But the Council soon get cold feet and begin to cool off on the "more control stuff." They evidently realised that the control of student disciplinary powers would make a pretty big job and might take more than the regular meetings each week to deliver it. Then too, the members who might manage a few enemies in the school must make a student body if they should report some one for the violation of a branch of the University regulations. The Council accordingly met the proposal of taking over the disciplinary powers half way. But there is a catch in the proposal which they accepted. Buried deep in the claivate wrathing of the proposal is a clause which reads, "The Council will investigate matters called to its attention by responsible parties either through letters or through their appearance before the Council." That one little phrase relieved the members of the Council from the disagreeable obligation of reporting breaches of discipline and left the burden on the individual members of the student body and the present administrative officers of the University. Surrely the University senate will approve no such proposal on the part of the Council. If the proposal was adopted, it would mean that the duty of reporting breaches of discipline would rest on the same administrative officers who are intrusted with that duty at the present time. Memorandum to the student body will not take it violently, its authorities. Their governing body, the Student Council, will not even accept the responsibility. The result of the controversy is inevitable. The senate will see the irresponsible attitude of the Council and refuse to accept the proposal. This is exactly what the members of the Council want it to do because they do not want to be troubled with any real responsibility. Yes, student government is dead Let it rest in peace. A COMMENDARLE RECORD A COMMENDABLE RECORD Our hats are off to the representatives in the Kansas legislature. The fight of the house to obtain increased appropriations for the educational institutions of the state was one of the most worthy issues of the past legislature. But the fight was a losing one in that one of its most important features, the salary increase, was lost. The house endearened to raise the maintenance and salaries accounts. It carried the maintenance increases much better than the schools but lost its fight for more salaries except at two of the normal schools. The deficit of the salaries increase will mean a loss to the educational interests of the state. The two large state schools cannot hope to maintain their respective faculties intact without provision being made for some salary increase. But the Kansas congress has evidently adopted the policy of Coolidge conservatism which aims to be dominating our federal government. government. AN ADVANCE At last they have appeared—those little "mille stones" marking a real advance toward effective regulation of traffic on the campus. "Do not park here." The sign have long been needed, Automobiles have parked here, there, and everywhere. Many of the locations have included spaces directly in the way of foot passengers who sought to step from sidewalk to street. This condition is remedied by the small concrete blocks bearing the printed warning, "Do not park here." The warning was needed. Th igns are a valuable addition to th annuus. MISSING A MILLION "It is better to strive for a million and miss it than to strive for a hundred and get it," states a character in one of the recent popular books. But how many of the modern age agree with the statement? Certainly the student does not. Better, far better for him, to get a hotly written, compoor paper in on time, or read, long and easily read, or read than to expand original sports directed toward a conscious end of the own. He dares not "fall." And what of the instructor? Like the student, he is enclosed in a certain system which calls for attention to detail rather than idea; form rather than thought. He must get the student through so much territory a semester. He "nums at a hundred" and usually gets it—at the expense of the student, who is required to attend classes, or a million night notice failure for either or both of them, and failure in ligrace. Either the theory as stated is false or the present system is wrong. We think the present system is wrong. THE PEOPLE'S BOYS No doubt the colleague of Senator Norris chuckled as he read before that august body a poem, "Vice-president Dawes' Ride," a parody on "Sterrian's Ride." They might have laughed cut loud had it not been against their rules and dignity. But the public does not chuckle nor laugh at the prankish tricks of their boyfriend representatives at Washington. They frown on such proceedings. Men are sent to Washington to earnestly and sensibly represent the interests of the people through legislation. Whatever the good intentions of the representative as he leaves his home state for the national capital, he soon degenerates into a cog of a party blooming machine. Besides making speeches in the Diautown of New Zealand, reading Shakespeare, and the Bible to prevent legislation, he wastes valuable and serious time reading funny little scenes. Just boys, we would call them. The people who know the Camau is "over organized" will point to be fact that some groups cannot get numbers together to elect fleachers. Plain Tales From the Hill When Greek meets Greek: "Oh, you have a new room mate!" "No, I bought this tie myself." A member of Ruddhamantri who was having the verse form of the triollete explained to him asked if he could have a netra. The road was a cow One Journalism student who had never heard of Kipling thought that we were just trying to get funny when our column was named. He seemed to be in mind the idea of a tail, N. B. There is a difference. First He: Did you go to "Green Days?" Second: No, I go on the Hill for my personal touches. The "Don't Park Here" signs along the campus drive remind one of a cemetery—we aren't sure whether they mean cars or laws.
