"U" EDITOR IS CHIDED
CALLED ON, CARPET FOR CRITI-
CHING ACTION LEVYING RENT
AL FOR ARMORY. %

Relations between members Of the
staff Of the Minnesota Daily and the
chairman of the university faculty
press committee are somewhat strained
as result Of an article which ap-
peared in the Daily this morning stat
ing that the faculty had made regu-
latlon requiring payment from the
undergraduates for the use of univer-
sity buildings for social affairs Such
committee Of the board Of regents as
the result Of faculty agitation and it,
is meeting with great opposition among
the students.
Under the ruling of the executive
committee charge of $40 will be i'm
posed for the use of the university
armory for any student enterprise
which has no religious or educational
phase. This ruling applies not only to
social functions such as class parties,
but includes athletic contests. &
Students argue that basketball is a
university sport backed by the univers-
ity athletic board and that it is ridicu-
lous to charge the team for the use of
On the other hand the regents state
that the expense of lighting the; armory
during an evening more than counter
balances the fee. Il, &.
In the Minnesota Daily this morning
1.-The faculty is held responsible for the
action. The editorsof the day was sum-
moned before the chairman of the press
committee and reprimanded. In defense
| the undergraduate editor pleaded that
the agitation for the ruling began with
the faculty function committee and was
recommended to the executive commit
tee Il a. comalttee OF atty members
Of the university council. This was
denied by the faculty chairman and it
is possible that the affair will result
in a closer supervision over the daily.

Eer Governor Lauds the Wisconsin
statesman-Meeting Held in Prepare
tdon for Debate with Northwestern
Tonight.

In the opinion of. former Governor

by Mr.. Van SAINT in the university
chapel this morning and the tremend-
GUS throng of undergraduates, who had
packed the chapel For the purpose Of
holding an ante-debate massmeeting,

er he had ever heard. Continuing, he

bate Of the year, when Minnesota and
Northwestern will clash in their annual

That no monument il better than dis

IT the two Chapters cannot unite in

In the northern end Of the county, as
