Ragan & Bowman 825 Willamette St. alia Ralph D. Casey Sends News Bulletin Of University of Wisconsin Events By Ralph D. Casey Madison, Wis., Nov. 14—(Spec-ia to the Emerald)— Student govern ment at the University of Wise on sin is going through a process ot devolution. A week or so ago the Student Sen atet which corresponds, in a meas ure, to the University of Oregon student council, without that body’s centralized power, voted itself out of existence. Now all the affairs of the student body, exclusive of class activities, are under the con trol of five administrative boards, which, as a matter of fact, have been running things to suit them selves for a year or two. The Student Senate of nine mem bers, chosen from the entire num ber of undergraduates, was suppos ed to supervise the affairs of the ad ministrative boards, but the “subsi diary” boards have repeatedly defied their “superior officer.” The Sen ate got tired of playing the figure head and voted to abolish itself. The five administrative boards are: (1) the forensic board, which controls debating and oratory; (2) the athletic board, which directs and manages varsity athletics; (3) the Union board, responsible for the completion of the Union building and its furnishing; (4) the Cardinal board of control, which manages the student newspaper. (5) Badger board of control, in charge of the yearbook. Now there is no central bond among these boards. Each runs its particular activity to suit itself, but there is strong faculty influence be hind each group. The faculty rep resentatives, with O’eorge Little, director of athletics, at ihe head just about “runs” varsity athletics and the students are to all appear ances quite satisfied with the re sults. Little, ex-football coach, is a genial person with administrative skill, and he has set his heart on the development of intra-mural as well as extra-mural athletiee. The boards are iii a large measure sedf-perpettiat-iifg. Tint Cardinal board of control operates its owi printing establishment. The Badger board manages Mho- yearbook, nl though editor-and manager are elec ted by the Junior class. And so on. So what students have at Wiscon sin is functional government, with experts in charge of each activity. There is no student body president over activities. In fact, no general student assemblies are held for lack of a suitable place to accomodate 9,000 undergraduates. Other specialized student activ ities not included under the direction of any of the boards arc managed by those students who come together voluntarily for some special purpose. There is no apparent “hothouse” development of activities. For ex ample, the Forum is a group of in i forested liberal students who want | to bring outside speakers to the campus for special lectures. The Forum invited Bertrand Russell to Madison last week. Russell added fuel to the contro versy waging over the R. O. T. C. The famous English mathematician, philosopher, and jack of all intel lectual trades, declared in so many words in a Cardinal interview that military training in colleges and universities was all applesauce. ; Since 19211, when Wisconsin legis lature made it optional with the student whether he include military training in his course of study, in terest in the corps has been dwind ling. Jn 1920, 1921, and 1922, en I rollment, in the R. O. T. C. hovered about the 1,500 mark, then went down to slightly over 1,000 in the next two years, and since then has dropped Continually until the total number of men enrolled in only 631. On the recommendation of Col. Joseph F. Barnes, commander of the R. O. T. C., who was formerly chief of the 'staff of the American forces in Chinrt, the artillery unit is to be removed hext year ini the hope that by concentrating on infantry tac tics, military drill may be more effectively taught the comparatively few interested students who are still enrolled. J The Cardinal, undergraduate news paper, has been firing broadsides to bring about the abolition of the corps altogether. The Cardinal seems to represent a body of sentiment Something To Be Thankful For $5.85 With Hie SophoAiore Informal coming Saturday night. We can fit you. BELL SHOE ,Co. McDonald Theatre Bldg.

Col. Barnes recently made an im portant public address in Madison in supi>ort of military training in colleges. On Xov. 6 he was quoted in the Chicago Tribune: “We don’t ask for compulsory military train ing for it is not compulsory at Yale, Harvard or Princeton, where it is tremendously successful. But the unit can’t go over when the faculty and administration are not back of it.*’ President Glenn Frank says thnt while he has not formed a “mature opinion” on the benefits of the K. O. T. C., “a majority of the regents are without question opposed to military training in the university.” Gov. Zimmerman of Wisconsin is more emphatic. “1 am hellishly opposed to compulsory military training,” he declared to a Tribune correspondent. Somebody ought to provide coon skin coats for the poor Wisconsin football boys. And for the boys of all Middle Western teams for that matter. Warm mittens, too, would be a nice gif{. And footwarmors for the lads who sit on the bench.

Still—it was cold. And the peanut butcher did a rushing business between halves, selling hot-dogs and hot chocolate in pop bottles. Those poor football boys! I feel sorry for them.
