THREE TEAMS WIN AT WATER POLO Alpha Tau Omega, Phi Psi, Independents, Victors In Close Games Seven Games Are Scheduled For Next Week Results of the international water polo league games played yesterday give A. T. O. a victory over the Phi Sigma Kappas, 5 to 2. The Phi Psis won from the Fijis, 3 to 2 arid the Independents from the Beta Theta J’is by a 2 to 1 count. All of the games were closely con tested. The Indepcndents-Beta game proved the best game of the season. Both teams were excellent on de fense, but goals by Sprague and Hadfield of the Independents gave them victory. The Phi-Psi-Fi.ji con test contained plenty of action'with Smith and Newbegin scoring for Phi Psi, and Hughes, of Fiji, who was responsible for both of his team’s scores. Waffle and McKim led the A. T. O. attack, and took an early lead over Phi Sigma Kappa. They were never headed. The three winners looked fine and coach Abercrombie, who has charge of the games, expressed satisfaction in the interest shown and expects next week’s games to far over shadow this week’s contests. scuemue lor (James Tho Intercollegiate league (soft ball) games are played on Tues days, while the International league (hard ball) games are played on Thursdays.

Much enthu siasm has been manifested in this sport and Abercrombie is well pleas ed with the attitudo taken by the various houses who havo entered teams. Revision Comttiittee Explains New Plans (Continued from Page One) the amendment to do away with the inconsistency. Tho second amendment concerns the appointment of the editors of all student publications. At this time tho Emerald and the Oregana are the only two publications of the associated students, ’The amend ment provides that any member of the student body may work on the Emerald or Oregana if lie is competent. In other words, the pub lications are financed by student funds; why should not all students bo allowed to participate if they are qualified? Two Sources for Nominations ’I'he appointment of the editor is made from a group of nominees which originate from two sources. The stuff of the publication may nominate from one to four persons for editor, if the students feel that someone else should be nomi nated, a petition may be filed con taining the names of at least one hundred students. In these two ways nominees are made to the pub lications committee. Prom this group the publications committee se lects qpe to act as editor, subject to the approval of the executive council. The office of editor of any publication requires that that person be skilled in that particular line. Other than this the duties of tho publications committee remain as they are at present. The staff which has worked with the different individuals is surety best qualified to know who is outstanding or sev ( ini wno nro outstanding. However, 1 (In' petition method is still left if! the list of nominees which the staff i makes is not satisfactory to the students. The publications commit tee is composed of the present edi tors of the publications, faculty ad viser to the publications, alumni, and two student officers. A cross section of opinion is thus secured and a representative, yet a capable person will be selected. Third Affects Council The third amendment deals with the student, council. The first part places certain sections of the con rtitution in a more logical order. The second part deals with the stu dent council its If. I'nder the present system there are two cen tral bodies—the executive and the! student councils. ° The executive i council does the real work of the! student body and0 in recent years the work of the student council is new each year and as a result has I little or no experience in handling the problems. No cumulative knowl edge is available, Each year the i student council considers the prob lems that the previous year’s coun- ! eil considered. They do not have . They Face Camera Guns Dorothy Burke and Verne Elliott who take the leads in the campus movie, as seen through the eyes of Lome Smith, freshman in. the school of architecture and allied arts. The whole producing staff is awaiting good weather again in order that actual work may be resumed. 1 ho advantage of experience that the executive council has, where students, faculty, and alumni sit on the council for several years and yet enough new members come in to keep the body sensitive to stu dent opinion. The student council has not the advice of either faculty or alumni and as a result, may do things which later on may prove to be detrimental, and which might have been curbed had members of the group been more experienced-in handling the problems. The council in the past, because of lack of busi ness in several instances has inter fered with the work of the execu tive and true operation has been lacking. The new student affairs committee would be a representa tive group and yet because of its size not unwieldy, and it could give intensive study to problems which the student council only could treat in a general way. Then, too, this committee’s action is subject to the approval of the executive council where experience and past knowl edge will prove valuable in solving student problems. Students on Committees It must be remembered tlmt every committee, although faculty and alumni may be represented, is com posed chiefly of students and in this way advice and the viewpoint of several groups is secured and yet the ultimate decision rests in the hands of the students themselves. In every part, of our student gov ernment the students are in the majority. But with several view points expressed and more experi enced advice available the result will be much more favorable and in this way the university adminis tration ahd the associated students will be in closer harmony. The pro posed change is simply in keeping with our present form of organi zation. The fourth amendment is designed to assist the individual classes in the disbursement of their funds. Many times during the past class expenditures have greatly exceeded their respective budgets and as a result the classes are constantly in debt. If the change is adopted it will mean that the class budget as appvoved by the advisory committee of each class will be filed with the graduate manager’s office and that office will issue requisitions for ex perditures only in conformity with the approved class budget. In this way the classes cannot involve themselves in a heavy debt. The advisory committee as the present constitution, states, is composed of the president, treasurer, and adviser of each class. Meetings Reduced The fifth amendment proposes to reduce the number of regular meet ings of the associated students from five to two. This change merely brings the constitution up to date because in recent years committees handle the routine business of the student body and long drawn out meetings of the whole student body are not necessary. The two regular meetings would be ample to take care of nominations, committee re ports, and installation. In case spe cial business should come up a spe cial meeting of the student body may be called at any time by the president. ; W e feel these five suggested changes deserve your careful con sideration because they are essen tial to the continued success of our student government. The more im portant changes are simply in keep ing with our growing student bod}’. A special election on these amend ments will bo held Wednesday, April 17, 1920. At least 500 votes must be cast and two-thirds of the total vote must be in favor of the amendments before they are adopt ed. If any student does not under stand these amendments or any part of them, the committee would be 'glad to answer any .questions or ex plain any point in tlie amendments which is not clear. Sincerely, ROBERT HYND (Rhone 1306), TOM STODDARD (127), RON- HUBBS (730), HELEN PETERS (2340).

CONDON HAS HIGH MARK 1770 Books Issued in One Diay This Term at Reserve Litre Til spite of general opinion re garding the laxity of studying dur ing the spring term, Mrs. Dora Ford, head librarian at the Condon re serve library, has figures which prove that the library is more crowded and that more books are criculated than during either the winter or spring terms. Mrs. Ford’s figures show that the majority of students do their library work on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays, the circulation on these three days averaging 400 volumes more than on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. The high mark of book circulation for this term was recorded on April 2, when 1770 books were distributed.

NOTICE TO PIGGERS Big grains at small priee can be made by dragging her over to The ANCHORAGE Initial Unit of Fine Arts Building Will be Masterpiece of Architecture _ i Following the pledging of the last bit of money nceesnry to begin con struction on the first unit of the Prince L. Campbell fine arts muse um, detailed construction plans have been announced by Mrs. Irene T. Gerlinger, former regent of the uni versity. Judging from the architect’s plans, the building will be one of the most beautiful structures on the coast. When completed it will house the fine arts collection be longing to the university, includ ing the Murray Warner collection of Oriental art. Romanesque Style Chosen The first unit of tlie museum will occupy a 4-1 by ISO foot parcel of land south of the Commerce build ing and is •designed to be the major axis of the university campus. Ro manesque architecture has been chosen for the exterior design of the building and results in a particu larly pleasing building mass. The exterior finish will be in tapestry brick with stone and terra . eotta trim. The entry will be reached over a terrace flanked by two grave sphinx, and the main entry to the museum itself will be through an arch of the late Romanesque design which features light and attractive ornamentation. Although the building will have two major floor levels, its height will bo equivalent to an ordinary throe story building. In keeping with modern museum design and for the purpose of best preserving the valuable art collections, the build ing will have no windows and the Interior will bo illuminated exclu sively by artificial light. One of the unique features for the first unit is the memorial court at the rear, which will be open to the sky. This court is to be sur rounded by a eovered corridor which will have mosaic floors and orna mental sculpturing with lettered tablets on the walls. Fountain at End of Court A pool will be placed in the cen ter of tiie court, surrounded by shrubbery plantings suitable to the decorative motif. At one end of the court a fountain will play into a basin which will in turn empty a LAST DAY Matinee Today at 2 p. m. r a. Marts Conscience Bteture ~-'Ihe Vicious Schemes of a Siren.
