FACULTY STRONG
IN HANDLING OF
BAYLOR AFFAIRS
Texas Editor States That
Craft and Fraud Get
Into Elections.
HAVE N0RUSH RULINGS
Students Are in Favor ot
Strict Enforcement of
Pi chibition Laws.
BY THE OFFICE PEST.
Ttoo fan-ully dentinal moil
tbinci at Baylor t'nivetnty
Waco. Tex. aiconlmc to the euV j
tor of the Daily lanal to hia teply '
to th Daily Nrlirakan queation-
naire. The publiratLma are un.ter
control of a publication board of '
four faculty membrrt. and three!
stuilmt. The editor la never in
terfered with by the faculty except .
when hia editorial policy la oppo
site that of the unlveraity preal
dent Likewise, the editor la not I
dominated by anyone and I solely 1
responsible to the publication
board. The faculty members ad j
as sdvlners In student affairs. j
"Gruft and frnud oiien creep
Into th election t Hnylor. and
certsln soclnl orjaniiHtions con
trol the election", usually." The
faculty practically never super
vises the elections. Frsternlty anJ
non-fraternity politics are tiKually
th dominating factor In the
elections and few real student
leaders are broupht out acocrding
to the editor. Politics play a very
larj: part on the Texas campus.
The clubs, which take the plac
of fraternities at Baylor univer
sity, are largely responsible for
th play of politics on the campus.
Faction Developed.
The different clubs have "nat
unl oiKati3" brides '"oul
sldcrs forming a clique before
election." The groups pledging
factional allegiance are "only
transient." Social organization de
termines the faction lines. The
Issues Involved In the elections arc
at various times real or fictitious
ones. The athletic board of Baylor
University is made up of faculty
members, and Its powers are gov
erned bv conference rules as to
the eligibility of athletes, rules of
the game. etc.
The students of the Texas
school are In favor of strict en
forcement of the present legisla
tion of the prohibition law while
th editor declared he was In favor
of modification to permit sale of
light wines and beers. "Certain
organizations have conducted a
questionnaire of this matter on the
campus with the result that ap
proximately 65'; are total ab
stainers; 20',c are occasional
drinkers and 15'.'r are regular
drinkers." The editor believes
that prohibition legislation has
stimulated drinking in the uni
versity. However, drinking is not
a problem there among men or
women. What drinking is done
is campus-wide. He further de
clares that he is "in no position
to say" as to how the conditions
in regard to drinking have
changed, either for the better or
for the worse.
Some Cross Pull.
There is some cross pull socially
between club and non-club people.
The club members "are apparently
regarded as higher socially in the
opinion of the Lariat editor. The
clubs dominate the all-college par
ties and take the lead in sponsor
ing all-college social affairs. As
for rushing rules, according to the
answers submitted, there are no
such things, no rush week with its
cut throat pledging, nor does there
seem to be any such thing as
pledgeship fo' initiation into soror
ities and fraternities. However,
the Baylor paper is free to publish
stories of the girls' club parties.
Deadline is 10:30.
Women students must be in their
club or rooming houses by 10:15
on week nights and 10:30 on week
end and Sunday nights. The par
ties last from H to 12 and women
attending get late leave permis
sion. If anyone Is caught drinking
or xribbing they are dismissed by
the faculty. There is a code or so
cial conduct.
The Lariat editor answers "yes"
to the question of whether they
have strict eligibility requirements
for participation In school activi
ties, publications work or athletics.
The requirements are uniform for
ell branches of extra-curricular,
activity but are more "strictly ad
hered to in athletics, loosely other
wise." Scholarship and moral hab
its are the requirements. "Perhaps
twenty" Ineligible Htudents are in
activities in Baylor university, the
editor states.
Chapel Compulsory.
The churches of Waco attempt
to get to the student body but the
only required attendance is at
chapel. The churches aud schools
co-operate to "some" degree with
each other. Approximately 35 to
40 percent of the student body at-

schedules or programs.
A matter which Instructors are
asked to adhere to strictly Is the
widely known . "two-fifth rule."
This is what the registrar's official
letter hss to ssy about that:
"Remember that it is necessary
for each student to take at least
two-fifths of bis work in the aft
ernoon unless outside employment
makes such a schedule impossible.
Students claiming exemption from
afternoon classes on account of
employment are requested to show
on the scheduled blank their hours
of employment ss well as their
classwork.
"The student who claims ex
emption from afternoon classes
will also write In the lower left

Mr. Seaton branded them as fals"

as humorous and that to ignore it
entirely would be the best policy.
Mr. Seaton said that he had
been at one time a salesman for
the Buick dealer during the sum
mer months while teaching auto
mobile engineering at the col
lege of agriculture. "I am not
a Buick salesman at the pres
ent time and have not received
any sales prizes from the Buick
company," he declared.
"I have purchased automobiles
for members of the faculty,"
Mr. Seaton said, "but I have
never gone out and tried to sell
cars to them and do this be
cause of the discount that I am
able to secure." He said that
the university does own a num
ber of Buicks but that it was
because he considered them a
good car and could buy them at
a very good prlc.
Refers to Vouchers.
"If the writers of the paper
wish to find out something," said
Mr. Seaton, "they might iook in
the vouchers and find out ex
actly what we paid for the Mar
quette which tney say was given
Mr. Gunderson."

E
Probe Discloses Fact That
Very Few Ever Complete
University Course.
Editor' Not: The following it
report of inveatigationt carried
on by th tngintring college.
There la danger Involved In
merely being alive. You cannot
cro a at ie ft without chancing an
automobiliou death When you
prepare for a railroad trip, the tic
ket agent always strongly sug
gest accident insurance. Your
very day routine involve haz
ard; a fall un the alalia, an in
fection, a ga explosion, a rut by
gins or tools, acute Indigestion
w hat not ? You cannot du so pro
saic a thing a take a bath without
n.king being one of the thousand
odd who slip, and wrench a bark,
sprain a ligament, or bruise some
corners of their anatomic.
Quit to be expected, therefore,
are the hazards In going to school.
We hav often wondered and
even guessed at what become of
our entering freshmen. Prof. A. A.
Reed a few years ago made some
studies for the university as a
whole. But It was not until this
year that we have compiled data
on engineering freshmen as Indi
viduals rather than collectively,
we are just completing an analy
sis, for the three classes entering
in three successive Septembers
1923. 1924. 1925. Some rather
striking facta appear.
There are many different ways
of looking at the data, some of
which I shall take here. The tabu
lar form will permit one more
quickly to grasp the significance
of the figures, and will Indicate
very effectively both slmiliarities
and contrasts
Withdrawals are voluntary, and
Include failure to return at the be
ginning of a later semester. This
accounts for the comparatively
large number of withdrawals. In
offering reasons for withdrawals,
the explanation given by the stu
dent is accepted and recorded. Per
haps "finances" and "work" should
be classed together.
Transfers to other colleges of
the university are numerous, and
indicate initial lack of understand
ing of the demands of an engineer
ing course of study. The enlight
ening is usually rather prompt in
its arrival. For example, of the
forty-eight who transferred from
the 1923 class, sixteen remained In
engineering only one semester, and
twenty-one registered in engineer
ing only twice. I have not followed
them beyond the transfer point, so
I cannot tell of their subsequent
successes or failures.
One very startling element of
the summary is the smallness of
the number of men who graduate
in eight semesters. The percent
ages for the three classes run 9.12,
18.9 and 9.03, respectively. For
the three classes together, the per
centage is 11.7. It will be noted,
however, that for the first class
listed the total percentage of grad
uates has gradually crept up to
22.3, with a small number of in
dividuals still in s.-hool. As an ex
planation of this : lay be offered
the parallel record that approxi
mately 90 percent of our engineer
ing students report that they are
at least partly self supporting. Of
course, the fraction of total ex
penses earned varies the full dis
tance from zero to unity, with the
middle range predominating. Un
doubtedly this contributes materi
ally to the causes for delay, as it
requires either reduced programs,
or broken attendance. For ex
ample, only thirty-six men of the
230 entrants in 1923 had uninter-
J ,Upted attendance
Many other important facts
could be bro'ight out if we had
space, but I cannot close without
saying that we are instituting pro
cesses of instruction and advice to
our students which we hope will be
effective in reducing our losses.
One can see with certainty, even
after a cursory glance at such fig
ures as I have presented, that
many students enter engineering
ill-advisedly, while many others
fail because they do not succeed in
orienting themselves to the work
promptly. We hope to correct to
some extent these defects of our
present system.

FIRS! EDITOR PAPER
MAKES OFFICE VISIT
Harbor Inspects Ncbraskan
Tuesday; Relates Early
Days on Sheet.
lUlngh W. Harbor, fuat editor
of the Daily Nebraakan and at the
pifwnt time secretary tteaaurrr
of the Rhedd Inveatmenl company
of Omaha. viMled the office of the
Nebiakn Tuerday aftamn and
related some account of th
founding and early da of the
paper.
In 1901. hy a merger of the
"Scat let and Cream'" and th
"!lrilan." weekly atudrnl pub
lication of'.th univeraity. Tb
Daily NrbraaVan waa organized.
Mr. Harbor had beeo editor of th
"Scarlet and Cream" and was
t hoaen the. ftrl editor, .sterling
Mci.'aw. Norfolk ntv.papr man.
who had ben buainetii manager of :
the "Hesperian" was given thia po
sition on th Nebtaakan.
Printed by "Call."
The paper was then printed by
th "Call." an evening Lincoln j
paper, and the office of th Ne-,
bra.ikan were located there. The
editor and business manager prac
tically got out the paper them
selves There was at that tune no school
of Journalism, but much of the
newswritlng wm done by those
taking a course In Journalism
which was given by Professor M.
M. Fogg, founder of the achool of
journalism, and Mr. Shedd who Is
now Mr. Harbor's business partner
in Omaha and who was then regis
trar and Instructor In Engllnh at
the university.
Editor, Businett Head Profited.
The editor and business manager
were financially responsible for
the paper. They mad for them
selves whatever profits there were
or paid any deficit. Much railroad
advertising was done and often the
editor or business manager would
get free passe from the railroad
companies.
No girl had a chance of getting
a position on the paper during hia
time said Mr. Harbor In contrast
with the number who now are on
the staff.
"We were very primitive." he
said, "and had no great editorial
campaigns, although we did some
times get ourselves into trouble."
To Denver on Pat.
After his graduation in 1902
Mr. Harbor went to Denver on a
free pass from a railroad company
and got a Job as a reporter on the
Denver Republican. He said he
found that editing a college stu
dent newspaper and reporting for
a daily in a large strange city were
two greatly different things.
Since he has not followed jour
nalism as a profession, Mr. Harbor
says that he probably received no
direct practical value from his
work on the Nebraskan. "But."
says he. "the easy writer Is the
successful writer today and newt
paper writing teaches ease in writ
ing." He said also that ease in w rit
ing develops ease and rapidity in
thinking and thus really benefits
one much.
