It seems to me that a graduate manager would be an unnecessary luxury for various rea sons. First. Arguing from precedent and tak ing the school year as the standard of comparison, it appears that the manage ment of student enterprises extended to undergraduates has not resulted in a fail ure; we can rather point with pride to the successful football season and all our other student enterprises. The present managers and their assistants will, I am sure, prove just as efficient as the former ones. Second. The only plausible reason that can lie brought for the employment of a graduate manager is th a t.it takes away too much time from the student engaged in managing some student-body enterprise. As far as we all know’ the managers of the track and bas ket-ball teams and Glee Club are rather proud of their positions and do their duty cheerfully, without, as the class records can show, being for that less efficient in their school work. There remains the college papers. The trouble with the management of theae it that, the respective managers trv > 1 1 1 7 2 -7 4 West E ig h th '.S t.

The minimal amount of time and energy required to manage them would make him useless. | if, as it does sometimes happen, our stu- dent-body enterprises are successful, from , \ the of view, we can util- . financial point 1 lze the surplus by s helping some needy 7 r and deserving student to • continue his, . ,• , • . . . , studies, without having to interrupt them I on account of lack of funds, as many have done and are doing. A loan fund from the surplus of student-body enter prises would be more useful and neces sary than a graduate manager.
