The action of the board of regents

the president of the institution surpris-
ed no one
Its action in requesting the resigna-
ton of Professors Sims and Andrews
astounded everybody.
1t pleased only one class of people,
SO far as has been observed. That
was the very human trustees of the
state agricultural college.
"That action will add fifty per cent
to the attendance of the engineering
department at Ames," said an alumnus
of the university to an Ames trustee.
HeSsmiled contentedly. More than
that" he said.
President MacLean is doubly profit
ted by the action of the regents, it
would SEEM He has been vindicatd,
which is good. The engineering de-
partment of the university is put 10
sleep. That is bad
Sims and Engineering School.
An interesting story is told to this
effect: That when the legislature de-
cided to have a butchering with the en-
gineering department AT the university
all ready for the knife and the scalding
barrel, Professor Sims heard of it and
came to Des Moines and appeared at
the legislative halls. 1t is said that
this displeased the president and Pro
fessor Sims was ordered back to the
university. He remained here and the
university department not only was
saved but the legislature swerved
around through the strong influence
of George w. Koontz, e. w. Weeks,
and some others and appropriated $780,
900 extra for the department
