of considering a new plan of manage
lnent for the Student" the college
publication. The senior class will have
charge Of the paper until after the

Junior class is supposed to take on
troll. An agitation was started last
spring. just before the election of the
Student board, to change the plan Of
choosing the editors. but the plan was
turned down and this year the seniors
AZ" bringing III" matter up for dis
c,lssion in plenty Of time before the
election.
II is generally conceded that the
presen: system Of selecting the editors
is wrong and every effort will he
mad toadopt a NV plan. IL there
could be tome way Of making the edi-
TOYS earn their positions by competi-
zion IL would undoubtedly be a good
hin for tho publication because at
III. present time there are a large
number of news items that are no.
elected because they arc not sclf-ad-
Ter'is!ne and there is no n who
tales 'he trouble Z" go after them.
Under the present system of control
each board is too new TO the work AT
N" start 20 IMPROVE much over the
preceding one. AS q result q the fact
ma. there Ia very little competition
non 'hn members IF III" board the
articles of real news that appear in
the Student are very scarce and Of
poor quality in many instances.
