Missouri fell a victim to our athletic
skill both on the gridiron and the dia
mond. Friday night will tell who is
superior in "vocabularology."
The debate wi h Missouri comes
next Friday evening. The association
has made great preparations for the en
tertainment of tho audience. Every
one should now show his appreciation
and "turn out" to the contest. The
souvenir programs are neatly and ele
gantly prepared and will make an ex
cellent memento of university life.
What' has become of track athletics?
The result of Ia3t Saturday's meet was
certainly discouraging for this line of
athletic work. But the students who
read of the defeat should not be sur
prised, for it is the most natural re
sult of the lack of spirit shown by the
student body. In past years the sup
port given to track work has been
poor, very poor, but this year the spirit
has entirely died ottt. Tho bare, star
ing bleachers of Saturday wore a dumb
warning of the fate which awaited the
men as they stepped upon tho Hold.
How can wo expect to attain any stand
ing in track athletics If no better sup
port, can be obtained than that mani
fested last Saturday?
COMMUNICATION.
A 1M.K.V I'OII SIMM' HI.KKVKS.
It Is now, it seems to me, an oppor
tune time to say something for tho
good of suffering humanity in such a
great progressive educational center
as our university. It rests upon the
students themselves as to whether
they intend to be comfortable or not.
As tho warm weather has come upon
us and tho fair box unload themselves
of the clothing which is unnecessary
for comfort, why should tho same priv
ilege be denied their brothers? Why
can not the man tako otf IiIb coat when
it is hot, as well as tho woman, and
don those thin, filmy things, through
which the slightest kind of a cooling
breeze can sift?
Th nnwKpapors of this enlightened
country have pleaded and pleaded lor
the comfort of the male sex; but to no
avail. Still tho women demand that
the men keep on their coats and suffer,
because they do not like to see them in
public in their shirt sleeves.
There ought to be a rule in tho 'ini
veisity that when the weather is mu
ondurably hot, and there is lots of
hard study ta bo indulged in, tho
man might bo permitted to remove his
coat, oven in that sacred place, tho li
brary. It Is a very peculiar state of alfairs,
it scorns, that when a man is hard at
work studying with tho mercury in the,
thermometer trying to climb out at tho
top of tho tube, the representative
of tho sterner sex should have to iaoor,
with bends of porspi ration resting on
his brow, nnd his outer gnrmonts still
on, whilo his fair, cold nistor is enjoy
ing herself in her comfortable habili
ments. It is not the writer's intention to bo
unnecessarily harsh towards the fair
sex, but he realizes the uselessness of
anything being accomplished in this
way without tho co-operation of the
men. It would be a strange thing for a
girl to ask a man to remove his coat;
he iirst has to assort his own ideas and
then ask for her support. If a man
has on a clean shirt, why shouldn't ho
display it, provided it has a pretty pat
tern, as well as tho lady hers. On tho
other hand, if tho shirt has not the
desired freshness, it would be the
proper thing to keep on the coat. ,iitcr
a few uxperiences the wearer would
then, without any doub. be willing to
equip himself in the proper fashion.
These ideas arc only "a word to the
wise," and it is hoped that they will
be appreciated. United wo stand, di
, vided we fall; that is, if wo all take off
our coats, wo will all be comfortable.
Hoping tho authorities and students
j will take this kindly as a gentle hint,
the writer, in tho meantime onjoys tho
i pleasure of roasting in his coat.

SOME FACTS ABOUT THE "EVERY
SUBSCRIBER A" PLAN
CONDUCTING A COLLEGE
NEWSPAPER.
The following editorial from the
Daily Palo Alto bears particularly on
the plan for a stock company for col
lege dailies:
The plan of having the Daily Palo
Alto controlled by a stock company
has been discussed considerably during
tho past few days. The idea is to have
ono hundred shares and to sell tnem
to different students at five dollars
apiece. This will give a fair-sized
working capital. In all probability
the shares would be taken by persons
interested in the welfare of the Daily,
and tho best men would be chosen for
editors nnd business managers. It
often happens that the man who has
spent two or three years on the paper
working his way up from an assistant
to managing editor is easily defeated
for the oflico of editor-in-chief by some
more "popular" person wno has been
on the paper only a few months, t-n-der
the present system there is no in
centive whatever for any one to pre
pare himself for business managership,
as during recent years tho office has
been Invariably given to some popular
1 athlete who needed it to pay his ex
j penses, and tno abilities of candidates
have not been taken into considera
tion. Such a policy sis this has been
ruinous to the paper; and if the Dany
I is to be a success, business managers,
' as well as editors, will have to Lnk
of the future instead or entirely the
1 present. If the paper were turned over
to one hundred students they would,
1 It is reasonable to suppose, bo interest
od in its future and would select men
1 for tho oflices according to their ability
I and preparation and not according to
I their popularity. Wo hope that tne ex
I ecutive committee tomorrow evening
will give this matter the funest conid
i oration and will prosont an amendment
to the constitution along these lines
so thai the views of tho student nody
may bo obtained.
