PRESIDENT OF THE
UNIVERSITY HERE;
WILL HE RESIGN?
Reports in Circulation That
Change Will Take Place
in Administration of Edu-
cational Institution.

DIR. Melvin A. Brannon, president OF
the University of Idaho, is in the city
to attend the convention of the IDAHO
state Teachers association. While
here DR.. Brannon will hold confer
ence with DR.. f. o. Sisson, state COM
missioner of education, with reference
to the reports that have been in circu-
lation lately regarding the so-called
Barker episode, in which the secretary
of state said, prior to the general elcc-
ton, that DR.. Brannon would resign If
Governor Alexander was re- elected.
Later, or while in the city during the
meeting of tho state board of education
the early part of the present month,
President Brannon denied that he had
made such a statement or had ever at
any time authorized anyone else to
make it. Secretary of State Barker
said on his return from the north that
he had never quoted DR.. Brannon as
directly saying he would take such
action.
POLITICS ALLEGED.
The entire episode has aroused UNI
usual interest over the state. The
charge has been made in the past and
repeated that there was political activ-
ity at the university before the gen.
eral election last fall.
Whether DR. Brannon's trip to Boise
al this time has any particular signifi :
canoe with regard to the position he
now holds, is causing not a little spec :
ulation. Reports We're in circulation al
the state house some time ago that DR.
Brannon had forwarded his resienn :
ton to the commissioner of education
but inquiry developed tho head OF the
state educational department knew
nothing of them.

Miss Fullers views on the present

She believes the day Of the vampire. the
blood and thunder and the sticky sweet

She thinks the people Of today
want photopiays dealing with the
highest principles OF life and
glimpses Of character development,
which the audience can absorb for its

Although Yale will have the right now
to enter a track and field team In the

dictates that this will not be done. Mr..
Oler stated that he was watching for
all the talent he might be able to en-
list for the n. Y. A. c. teams. He also
stated that he would shortly transfer
his registration from Yale to the New

Team batting in the high school series

An unprecedented boom in track ath-
ietics during the past year holds out
for Washington another season Of even
larger proportions judging from plans
now being laid by followers Of the
game here. Next season may find one
or two big outdoor meets and several
sets Of dual games which will include
some Of the larger colleges In the
East who are anxious to get workouts
for the Penn relay games.
When Georgetown and Penn State
held q dual meet here last month. Coach
Martin Of Penn State let It be known
that he was more than anxious to have
his team here next year. Overtures
made to the Maryland Aggies and Johns
Hopkins may lead to bringing Penn
State here for two sets of games or
even three during the Easter holidays.
The Central stadium which will be
completed In time for more extensive
track work next spring for the Central
athletes may be used for several sets
OF dual meets between Central and 9TH
