THE REGENTS' ANSWER.
The answer of the Board of Regents to the letter sent out last week by Governor Stubbs, is extremely interesting. In the first place the question as to whether the statement by Dean Templin was official or not was answered. Dean Templin never claimed that the statement was official. His remarks were made wholly at his own initiative and were merely intended to be presented for consideration at the next meeting of the regents. Quite naturally the regents disclaimed all responsibility for the statement.
But the regents came out openly in support of the statements that in several instances defective wiring was dangerous to both life and property and immediate repairs were absolutely necessary. Any one who has examined the walls of Snow hall know that they will have to be repaired whether there is an appropriation or not. And it is also stated that any growth of the medical school must come necessarily from the allowances made in 1909.
What does the report of the regents mean? It can mean only that the regents after studying conditions here have found that the editorial in the Graduate Magazine was not too strong in its statement of University needs. It is admitted that in several instances the editorial was rather harsh in its references, but the fact is that the gist of the editorial was sustained by the regents.
It has been said that daily walking up Mt. Oread tends to make students have large feet. Press reports this week say that people
with large feet are prone to insanity. Q. E. D.: The many irrational acts of the students may be explained by the foregoing.
ATTEND THE DEBATE.
Tomorrow evening the debating team will meet the men from Oklahoma. This is the only contest to be held at home this year and the student body ought to turn out and support the debaters. The representatives of Kansas in debate have never received the encouragement that is due them. The debate is tomorrow night and ought to be attended by a great number of students.
The matter seems to be settled, but we never did learn who Dean Templin IS.—Dod Gaston in Topeka Capital.
Dear Dod, try this recipe : Come down to Lawrence and try to enter the University with ten hours' deficiency in entrance credits.
Emma Goldman did not win a home in Lawrence. A University is generally credited with taking up with anything that is of the freakish order but anarchy did not receive a favorable reception here. Anarchy is more than a freak idea; it bespeaks a diseased mind. Miss Goldman absolutely refused to answer many questions in regard to her propaganda. The reason was because she could not answer them. Anarchy is to be feared because it works on a class that sees only the most obvious points in the doctrine but is not cognizant of the subtle and undermining forces that are set to

work that will be destructive to the best interests of the individual and the nation.
Our Ambitions Are Laid Bare. K. U. will graduate 436 students this year most of whom, if former graduating classes may be taken as a criterion, have an ambition to become journalists—Dod Gaston in the Topeka Capital.
FAVORS THE MOVEMENT.
The Kansan is in receipt of a letter from W. S. Robb, superintendent of the Eureka public schools, in which the recent organization of the University alumni is commented upon. The letter follows:
Editor of the Kansan
An Alumnus Writes That There is Need of Organization.
mitor of the Kansai:
In the press notes of recent date
I think an organization of this kind would be an excellent thing. Much could be done by a thorough and an intelligent organization for higher education in Kansas. The needs of the University must be made clear to the citizens of the state, her influence and usefulness must be extended to every activity in the state, and the importance and necessity of high education must be made plain to all. Yours truly,
I saw a statement of a movement to organize the alumni of the University so as to be better able to further its interests and welfare.
W. S. ROBB,
An Alumnus.
Edward White, a senior in the College, who was operated upon for appendicitis at Kansas City a short time ago, suffered a relapse last week and was removed to the hospital a second time.
