new ATHLETIC CONSTITUTION
Several Changes Made at Mass Meet
ing at WaShburn.

The new athletic constitution for
Washburn college was adopted with
out dissent by the students in a mass
meeting in the college chapel this
morning. This constitution has been
under revision by the athletic board
for some time and has twice been pre-
scented to the students.
Several notable changes have been
made. Among these is the provision
for a women's athletic association,
which shall have separate constitu-
ton. The official wv for girls shall
be awarded by this association for ten
mis-, which is the only intercollegiate
sport in which they will participate.
Miss Katisue Moore, women's athletic
director for Washburn, is now at the
head of a committee which is drawing
up a girls athletic constitution
One of the most important changes
in the constitution is the manner for
choosing the football captain. Only
letter men are entitled to vote and if
there is a tie, which is not decided by
three successive votes, it is to be de-
cided by a flip of the coin instead of
by the athletic board, as formerly.
The requirements for winning a. Of
fetal wv in football are made more
stringent. The player must play in
seven periods of fifteen minutes and
in five intercollegiate games, where
formerly a player needed to play in
over half of the intercollegiate games
of the season, With no requirement as
to the time spent in each game.
In tennis the requirements for a
letter have been changed from win
ming an intercollegiate match either
in singles or doubles or winning either
in the state athletic meet to winning
three matches in either singles or dou-
bles in the state meet or participant
ing in two-thirds of the intercollegiate
matches.
Provision has been made that each
letter man, upon graduation, shall re-
ceive a complimentary ticket to all the
home contests in the sport in which
he has been awarded the letter.
The athletic board is composed of
six faculty members, six student mem
bers and two alumni members.

Storm tossed on a turbulent sea of
conflicting wave lengths the United
States government admittedly is at
loss to know what to do with the
growing radiophone traffic New
laws must be passed on the sub
ject, but no one apparently knows
just where to begin with them.
The suggestion seriously is being
considered of giving the interstate
commerce commission control of
the air SO far as the mainland of
the United States is concerned.
But this brings up the question
whether the air over a state be-
longs to that state or to the United
States. Have not the radio resi-
dents OF the sovereign state of
Georgia the right to use the air of
that state as they see fit, without
interference from the federal gov
