CHICAGO, Feb 23.-"Oh, these col lege editors" quoth Northwesterns coeds, en masse, "the horrid things!"
 It's just one thing after another and getting worse all the time.
 Comes now the Daily Northwestern, with the most resented editorial at- tack of all-the charge that the con- raratively large number of co-eds at the university have most distracting influence on the athletes of the col lege and that upon the fair co-eds must be placed the responsibility for the miserable athletic showing of Northwestern. Why, girls!
 CO-EDs CRY "FALSE!"
 But that's not all. This editorial broadside was merely reply to the criticism, or rather defense, the CO., eds themselves had been making of other articles The co-eds, 300 strong, held a mass meeting and decried the "gross misrepresentation of women students by the publication of snappy and salacious stories in the campus magazines. The "horrid" editors said they were merely telling the facts, as all regular editors do.
 February frigidity is as nothing as compared with the coolness that pre- vails when a coed and a member of the college Fourth Estate meet in &C., date Evanston these days.
 Campus chatter, however, is quite warm. Everybody Is asking: "Is there really something the matter with the co-eds?" Is she too "zippy". Does she dominate Northwestern? Is she responsible for the terrible show ing of the teams in the conference games? Northwestern hasn't been in the football running since 1917 and is just as badly off in other branch of sport.
 Handsome Henry Penfield, the foot ball star, witt, the instinct of a Sir Walter Raleigh, rushes to tho defense of the fair coed.

IN HEART OF CAPITAL

The building will occupy promi-
 nent site on the Mall, in the heart of the nations capital. After compile tion 1t will be under the control and administration of the Board of Re- gents of the Smithsonian Institution. Congress has authorized the George Washington Memorial Association to raise the money with which to erect
 his Memorial Building, and nearly a
 million dollars has already been re- ceived by popular subscription for this monument to American men and
 women.
 President Harding laid the corner
 stone of the National Victory Memo
 rial Building, as the building will be known, several months ago.
 What the Pantheon is to France, Westminster Abbey to Britain, such in some degree and manner the Ma tional Victory Memorial will be to America" the George Washington Memorial Association asserts. Great ly conceived, nationally erected, ded- icated to patriotism, it will stand
 through the generations as the na- tional monument raised in he awful
 presence of the worlds greatest po-
 litical convulsion to commemorate
 the victorious feats of American de-
 mocracy in arms. Hallowed by the
 passage of time, stored with the pie
 lures and statuary that will record the achievements of the Republic
 and it's conspicuous sons from age to age, it will become the Mecca of
 American patriotism and an inex- haustible source of stimulation to
 national duty and service.'
