VAN HISE ANSWERS CARY'S LAT.
EST LETTER

Every American university that
gives strictly first class undergradu
ate instruction has a strong graduate
school, for good undergraduate in
struction cannot exist in univer
sity without strong graduate
school," said President Charles r
Van Hise of the University of Wis
consin in replying to the. criticisms
made by Superintendent c. P. Cary
in his latest letter on university in
structiOn.
"Wisconsin with 1856 graduate stu
dents last year, compares favorably
with the other great universities OF
the country which had last year the
following number of graduate stu,
dents: Chicago, 1888; Columbia, 1899,
Harvard, GIL; John Hopkins, 62S;
Yale, 1885, Cornell, 372.
"While the university has not neg
lected it's advanced work, it alst
makes exceptional efforts to meet the
needs of the people of the whole
state. The University of Wisconsin
is the recognized leader in it's exten-
sion work, both general and agricul
tural Is it at all likely that the same
men who planned the extension work
would neglect the large group Of un'
dergraduate students at Madison fol
the sake of the graduate students?
''There is no problem to which edu
catiOnal officers and the regents OF
the state university have directed
their energy more continuously thar
to that of efficient instruction for un
dergraduate students, and especially
freshmen and sophomores In the
elementary sciences, such as botany
zoology, chemistry and physics, in
which the majority of the students
are freshmen and sophomores, the lee
lures are given by the professor al
| the head Of each of these depart
| mentS. In history, the mead or the
department gives the lectures in one
lessor of European history gives thos
of the elementary courses and the
| professor of European history gives
! those in another. In political econ
| omy the elementary course is con
ducted by one of the professors OF
| that department.
"Was the state superintendent, VIII
is ex-officio regent of the university
| aware of these facts when he wrote
ais letter saying that the work of the
| freshmen and sophomore years wa:
in the hands of the young and eff
cient men, or did he wilfully and de
iiberately aim to deceive the public
by gross misrepresentation of the
facts?"

"SoIdier McPike" Shaded

RICE LAKE, April lin a 10
round bout here last evening, Young
McGann, of Madison, shaded Soldier
McPike" 1t was an exciting battle
with honors even up to the 9th round
when McGann showed slight super
iority, which if decision had been
rendered would have made him the
winner.
The soldier has been in poor health
lately and has decided to take a rest
before engaging in any more encoun-
ters.
On March 5th, these boys fought
at Rice Lake in one of the fastest
fights ever pulled off in Northern
Wisconsin.
McPike was given the decision by
popular vote.
