Susie Reed Keith O'Bannon ....Norma ( hnbbuck We, Too, Have a Plan . . . The lead story today tells of a great reorganization of faculty-administration committees dealing with student af fairs. And it looks as if the students have had it again. Es pecially as regards student publications. Under the new program, five faculty members and three students will form the sub-committee on student pub lications. Formerly the pub board consisted of three faculty members and three students with Dr. W. F. Swindler, direc tor of the school of journalism in charge. Under the reorgan ization plan, Dr. R. V. Shumate of the Arts and Sciences college will be chairman. Formerly it was said the board knew very little about student publication. The new board looks like anything but an improvement. Some wag has said: "The faculty knows nothing about the problems of student publications; the student members. of the board know even less. Judging trom past experiences, he has hit the nail on the head. We are not casting aspersions as to the ability and earnestness of the Pub Board members just as to their first-hand knowledge of journalism in general and student publications in particular. With the new board, it appears that the selection of a pew staff at the end of the semester will be even more of a "by-guess-and-by-golly" matter. We realize the need of a publications board to check on finances and allied operational problems. But when five faculty and three students get together to pick a staff for publications they know little about, we balk. We have thought of a little plan of our own. You can't tell, some soul might listen to it. 1. Let the sub-committee on student publications serve as a check on finances, rwlicy, etc. 2. Set up an auxiliary sub-committee to pick the new staffs. On this committee would be the outgoing and in coming editors or business managers, depending on which staff was being selected, Dr. Swindler, who as director of the journalism school should know and have a hand in what happens to the various publications, and Dean T. J. Thompson, who seems to want his hand in everything any way. This auxiliary group would know who has done the best work, who deserves promotion and what policy changes would help the paper. The obvious charge that politics would enter in is ridiculous when one considers that the three student members on the new sub-committee will vote as a block anyway. Our system would be an improvement and business managers had just a little to say about who here. And, lastly, it would be very, very nice if the editors knew who was going to work for them. Theos John Thompson, are you listening? Cub Clem NU Bulletin Board Kosmet Klub actives will hold a meeting in the KK room of the Union Monday afternoon at 5 p. m.

Cstl VirKil Wulff, French language students are reminded of the French radio pro grams that are received once a week over a short-wave radio in 322 Burnett. The programs . are received every Wednesday afternoon from New York (Voice of America), Montreal, Switzerland and Africa. Stations, in France are too weak to be heard regularly in this sec tion of the country, and when these stations are picked up by short-wave students will be noti fied. Members of the French depart ment worked during the summer session to set up the powerful short-wave receiving station in Burnett.
