VETO SEMESTER FEE PLAN
Amss Faculty Votes Down Propesal TO
Tax All Students to Support Ath.
lsties and Forsnsies - Five Reasons
Given For Opposition to Proposition.

Special to Times Republican.
Anles, Jan. 19-The Ames faculty at
a recent meeting voted against recon-
mending to the state board of educa-
ton a proposition to compel the entire
student body to support intercollegiate
and intercollegiate athletics and loren
sizes by requiring all students to pay
semester fee" as one of the regular re-
CURED fees which now are taxed to the
students to met laboratory and Incl
dental expenses. The reasons given
by the rules committee for turning
down the proposition were flve-fold
and az follows: First, because tie
legality Of such fee is questioned;
second, because the moral right to ex-
act such fee is doubtful; third. be-
cause of the difficulty involved in de-
termning which student activities
should be included in such a provision;
fourth, for the reason that If such a
fee is established the college author
tiles will be under obligation to see
that funds so obtained are properly ex-
pended; and, fifth, because it would
mean an increase in the total fees re-
quired Of students, which is undesir-
able and inconsistent with the deter
mined effort recently made to reduce
required fees"
One member Of the rules committee,
speaking not for the committee but
for himself, yesterday expressed the
opinion that the policy of the state does
not contemplate that student in the
state college or in any state educational
institution shall be compelled by law
to contribute toward the support OF
any side issues to the college. Neither
athletics nor forensics. in the sense re-
ferred to by the semester fee are the
object Of the state college. he said.

that the Iowa banks will ever be al

Nyebeach

This has been'a year of new de-
partures at Nyebeach; first. the old
Pacific has been going through
stunts which were quite unusual
and even the old and callused Nye-
beachers have been out watching
its wild antics. A.. l.. Thomas, who
is an authority ON storms and tides
in this part Of the beach. says that
the surf was the widest that he
ever experienced. and the has some
pictures uf the big breakers that
prove his statement. The other
new departure was the Inaugural
tion by the Nyebeach Association of
an open town during Christmas
week. The principal attraction was
the opening of the Nataturium
which was kept open the entire
week, besides which there were
several dances at the Casino, the
Skating Rink and q musical and
reception held at the Cliff House
by the ladies of the Association, at
which light refreshments were dis
pensed by the Misses Irwin. Nye-
beach enthusiasm was proven by
the large number out in spite of
Mondays storm. 1t is planned to
make Christmas week an annual
feature at Nyebeach in the future
and with substantial addition to
this years advertising campaign it
will bring crowds of people to the
city for the holidays.
The heavy rains of Saturday and
Sunday have been quite disastrous
along Nye creek. washing out Coast
street opposite Byerley's livery
barn, and taking away a large part
iof the Osburn Hotel bulkhead and
flume. 1t is said that 50 inches of
rain fell in the "a hours and the
old inhabitants say that they have
never seen the creek SO high. The
storm will undoubtedly be a benefit
as it will result in Substantial i'm
provenents in place of the former
temporary ones.
