The Emerald publishes in the Open Forum column today a letter from the secretary of the interfraternity council in which he explains the action of that body in passing resolutions regarding Junior Week end in spite of the fact that the student council, elected by the stu dent body at large, had previously drawn up the recommendations to the junior class. The student council has no fight with the fra ternity group, it merely pointed out the fallacy of the latter organi zations attempting to make a further issue out of the Junior Week end discussion. As stated by the student council in passing the resolution con demning the action of the fraternity group, it believed that the camp us sentiment had been expressed by the heads of the houses, who are elected by each individual organization and should be prepared to speak as to what the sentiment of the organization is in the matter. The student council arrived at its decision ir| the recommendations to the junior class after it had gone into a committee of the whole at its previous session and drawn up each of the resolutions alter con siderable discussion. The student council had no desire to disregard the fraternity group and maintained in passing the resolution of censure that if the fraternities as a separate organization from that of the heads of the houses, wished to take any action in the matter they should have done so in a session before the final action of the student council. Plenty of time was allowed for such action from the time that the committee from the council first began the investigation of the Junior Week-end situation, until the final action by the council was taken. In a news story in The .Emerald of January 2fi, it was stated that the student council was investigating Junior Week-end. In regard to the authority of the student council in such matters the following two excerpts from the constitution of the A. S. U. 0. setting forth its duties, are published for the information of all con cerned : Paragraph No. 3, Section 3 of Article IV; “To direct the enter tainment of the visiting teams or any others who are guests of the University.” Paragraph No. f>, Section 3 of Article IV; “To assume charge of all other items of importance in which the students may be directly interested and which are not specifically ascribed to the executive council.” Then* are « few things in regard to maintaining the beauty of the campus which should not be overlooked now. The first of these is the habit of cutting corners and not staying on the paths; the second is the habit of tacking placards on the trees about the campus. There are others. A spirit of cooperation is needed to keep the campus beautiful, a reputation that has already been earned for it; let’s cooperate. Students and faculty alike who believe in a liberal-minded policy for the University are anxious for an expression of opinion from all concerned in regard to the establishment of Saturday classes here. The matter is of vital importance to all concerned, and all are con cerned An expression of opinion should be made b\ student oigan izatiot.s through the proper channels.

They came un signed as U. S. mail for which the pen alty is jail. It seems that they accuse me of idolatry and Wrigley love. My answer is in “vers libree’ which means in Ilunyak that it’s free. Here is his note and next is mine, judge for your self the better line. from Him to Mo. “Pygmy Chesterton! Acolyte .... To an idol of Brass Sounding Brass With Feet of clay. Chewing gum! You .... With vicious snaps Of jaws Of bicuspids. Chesterton don’t chew gum! But .... Chesterton is English. It must be That Walt Mason Does it. Ugh!” —Anon. From Me to Him. “Vaporous Non de Plume! Where. Why and what Makes you believe that I Am acolyte, footlight, or any else To You E’en though your feet be clayf And chewing gum 1 Why Brass. My good friend Brass I do but discipline my gum And cause it to Snap out of it. Mayhap your Chesterton 1'oes not chew gum .... But even so, 1 trow, He must eschew .... Now which is worse? Take care, my friend, That Walter does not see Your accusation .... Because the charge would shock The famous man And that would be A Mason jar! .1 ay I> 'e. Y’rs truly, To the Kititor: lu ease the unsuspoetinj; student who road of tho student counoil’s action in resenting the inter fraternity council's resolutions regarding Junior Week laid might think that the latter body had entirely disregarded authority and were not willing to eo operate with any (dan that might finally be adopted by th junior elass, a word of explanation might be in order. Several organizations and indi\ iduals have taken credit for the origin of this movement, but it is my belief that tin discussion in the interfraternitv eoun etl ante dates that of any other. At least they brought it up actively as an issue. It was then the duty of the student council to ascertain student sentiment Did they ask for any expression of the interfraternitv council or pan hellenicf 1 don't think I am amiss in saving that both bodies are vitally concerned. The student council relied on an expression from a meeting of the heads of the houses. This body is not an organiza tion, and has no judicial power to en force any action they might take. I believe members of the student council who attended this meeting will admit that the opinions were not satisfactory and were coerced by a series of short motions. It then resolves itself into a ques tion as to whether the interfraternity council acted wrongfully in passing these resolutions after the student coun cil had made its decision, even though they disregarded the interfraternity council. We think we acted rightfully, but this is a rebuttable question. We are presumptuous enough to believe that since we originated the action we should be allowed some expression on the matter. Understand, student coun cil, whatever plan is finally adopted, we will cooperate. Verv truv yours. NELSON ENGLISH, Secrntarv-Treasurer, Interfraternity Council.
