for Iowa and the president will have no
difficulty in presenting an excellent re-
port. The attendance has increased
from 1,43S in 1S99-1900 to Lap in 1900-1901.

ulty, regents and alumni. An advance in.
salary will be rendered Professor A. a.
1Snipe, the director of athletics. to whom
the 'varsitys athletic successes have
been due. 1t is not a sure thing by any
rneans that DIR. knipe will remain at
Iowa. however. One thing that would
make his remaining more probable
would be the retention by the athletic
| board of control of Manager McCutchen.
| The latter. however. Will require an adj
vance in salary if he is to remain, the
| present salary of $1,000 not being large
| enough to meet the increased personal
expenses of his position.
"A successor of Professor j. ]. McCon-
/ nell as inspector of high schools and a
1 new law professor of code pleading will
| be elected by the regents. DIR. Charles
