passing of the proposed amendment
The Rat Bible "which, according to
tbe present plan, and constitutional
amendment, Is published by the Y. M.
C. A. and Y. W. C. A., will be taken
out of theft bands and placed under
the direction of tbe new publication
committee. The general business man¬
ager being In charge of tbe publication
and the editor to be elected by the
committee.
The n»w plan, according to Wood¬
ward, Is to prevent the overlapping of
duties of the business managers of {he
publications as the. .situation now oc¬
curs. The merchant» -of the city will
have only one management to deal
with whereas in the present system of
publications there are as mnny »s
there are publications. The plan la
hoped to create a better spirit between
the advertisers of the city and the
college as a whole.
The merging of the duties of all t he
publications under one management
will increase the duties of tne «me
general business manager. However,
these facts have been taken into con¬
sideration, according to the report of
the council, nud the duties will be well
recompensed.
