there was such an uproar that the
high vote would probably be con-
tested Consequently / decided TO

short meeting of the STUDENT
body after the basket ball game gave
only the announcement of Mondays
afternoon meeting. %t
Miss Doan, secretary of the stu
dent body stated Friday night that
the president of the student body.
was entirely out of order in calling
then meeting as a student body as
sembly, according to the student
body constitution, She quoted the
section, ''1rhe call of each student
body meeting shall be announced by
the president "a hours before the
meeting by posting notices on the
official, bulletin boards. He had no.
right to call the meeting. she
stated.
Hairless said Friday night that
those he represented felt that since
Dr.. Marvin has resigned, the stu.
dents should stay apart from the en-
tire issue. He objected to the meet
ing being called without proper no.
tice; secondly, that no hearing was
allowed the opposition on the floor;
and thirdly, that he felt as spokes-
man the students should not com
nit themselves in the issue.
DR.. G.. M. Butler, dean of the COLI
lege of mines and engineering, spoke
a few minutes after Benjamin had,
read the resolution to the students
and the Tucson citizens who were in.
attendance at the game. /:
81 want to ask you two questions"
the dean stated. First, what effect
do you think the act of a student
body will have on a legislature in
Phoenix? 1t won't have any effect
he continued. Secondly, is it fair
when man is down, in one manner
or another, I don't know whether
you will agree with me or not \; but is
it fair to kick him when he is
DOWN."
At this time an attempt cf Ben
jamfn to answer these questions was
met with Yells of play ball, play
ball!' from the basket ball fans It
was at this time that Hairless gained
the floor only to speak his thoughts
unheard for the uproar.

ITO the Honorable Board of Regents,
University of Arizona:
Whereas, DR.. c. H Marvin, find
ing himself unable to reconcile the
two opposing factions which have
been at strife on our campus for the
last two years, has handed the board
of regents his resignation from the
office of the president of the uni
versity; and
whereas, After DR.. Marvin has
handed his resignation to the re-.
gents, it seems that certain inter-.
ests are making every effort to.
cause continuation of this strife.
and apparently are attempting to.
stir UP further friction in the uni
versity and in the state, accomplish
ing their purpose chiefly by political
means; and
.Whereas, The state legislature Of
