Prospective Vacancy.
A vacancy will occur in the position of
clerk to the Recorder with the beginning
Of the new term. 81. III. Willis, the in
cumbent. has resigned to take up the prac-
tice of law in connection with his father in
San Bernardlno.
The Co-Ed Again.
The question has been raised as to the
status of the "co-ed'' in the State Uniyer-
sity, it being suggested that in some East
ern institutions opposition is arising on
the part of the male students to coeduea-
ton. There is no agitation of the matter
whatever at Berkeley, the two sexes on
the hole seeming to be supremely jndif-
ferent TO each others presence. When
some young man holds heavy door open
while a file of some half a dozen goods
who were behind him pass through with
out thanking him, he may reflect on GER
tain evils that arise from higher educatioh
and wish he were IN college for his own
sex only. But while the coed is usually
absorbed In her philosophic meditation
she Is not at heart discOurteous creature,
and could bring up strong array IF crude
manners on the part of those she is of
late rather inelegantly clubbing the "eds."
On the whole the young men seem TO be
very we'll satisfied with themselves and do
not consider the young women of sufficient
i'm pOrtance to desire to be rid of them,
while minority would vigorously oppose
any movement to take from the class
rooms the esihetic effect few attractive
young women lend to 1t at present.
A Dining Association.
A meeting will be held tomorrow to
draw up articles for university dining
association. Some time ago the regents
set apart me of the university cottages,
and agreed to open restaurant in it if
sufficient number to render it profitable
desired 1t. The restaurant facilities of
Berkeley are not of the best. and but one
or two are within easy reach of the
university. Hence a well-got-up dinner
will be appreciated by a large number OF
students and some of tine professors, who
now eat cold lunches from their baskets.
Compulsory Sanitation.
The Health Officer has had great diff
Guilty in inducing many property-owneis
to put their house drainage In connection
with the town sewers. To obviate this
resolution will be probably passed this
evening by the Town Board, 1t having had
its first reading at the last meeting to COM
pei any prOperty-Owner living on street
having lublic sewer to connect his house
Or tenement WITH the sewer.

tary OF the State Board OF Health IL ap-
