O. Crisler yes¬terday when asked about the offerwhich, it is rumored, has been madehim by the University of Minnesota.This statement was made yester¬day to a Daily Maroon reporter.When Mr. Crisler was called lateryesterjay afternoon, he flatly deniedthe statement, and refused to con¬firm the report of the offer from.Minnesota.Minnesota SeeksNew Athletic CoachMinnesota has been seeking a newhead coach since Doc Spears resign¬ed to go to the University of Ore¬gon, indicated A. A. Stagg, Jr.,F'reshman track coach, yesterday.Spears produced winning teamsfor Minnesota, but his policies ofdriving his men found disfavor withthe administration. During the foot¬ball season the team worked fourhours every day; during the winterindoor practices were held; and thesquad appeared outdoors with thefirst robins for spring training.Within the next month springpractice will begin at Minnesota, andit is imperative that the selection ofa man to replace Spear.-) be madesoon.Crialer HasBrilliant Record HereCoach Crisler’s record at the Uni¬versity indicates that he is a manworthy of the position of head coachat a Big Ten school. Entering thedepartment of physical culture in1922, he was advanced until at pres¬ent he is coach of the baseball team,coach of the freshman basketballteam, coach of the ends on the foot¬ball team, and “my father’s right-hand man,” said “Lonnie” Stagg.For the last few years, he hasmanaged the Basketball Interscholas¬tic. held at the University, and theresponsibility for the Track Inter-.scholastic rests largely on his shoul¬ders. The remarkable success at¬tained by the basketball tournamentattests his managerial ability.“ ‘Fritz’ is, in my opinion, one ofthe most promising young coaches inthe country today,” “Lonnie” wenton. “His future is bright whether hedecides to accept Minnesota’s offeror stay on at the University.”Whatever his decision, it will bemade within a day or so—or perhapsit won’t.

That oneof the most intelligent essays in American history could be madeso easily available to the Infinite Shoeblacks among students andamong the population at large is an intimation, at least, that demo¬cracy in education can be carried one step further—from the bor¬rowing of public-library books to the ownership of a choice privatelibrary.In this democratization of education the University bookstoremay take part, we suggest, by arranging lowered rates for tht stu¬dents and faculty of the University. If budgetary estimates weremade of students’ expenditures on books at the beginning of eachquarter, they would probably evidence an average of fifteen dollarsfor each student, with highs of twenty or twenty-five for membersof graduate schools. Not many students can enter the bookstore"with full hands ” to meet patently exorbitant antes for their educa¬tion. We believe that more books would be sold, and the overtresentment of some students against such exactions would be as¬suaged by provision for reduced rates.It is probable, also, that students would purchase more worksin philosophy, history, psychology, and political science, other thantext-books, if supply met their demand on a reduced basis.—E.G.B.A SENSIBLE CHANGEIn a recent memorandum, the Rhodes Trust announced thatscholars may now spend their third year at any university in GreatBritain besides Oxford, or at any university on the continent. Be¬fore this change a student was confined to Oxford for three years.Although he might want to study under a certain master or de¬partment in another school, the old regulation prevented him.The new ruling is much more sane. It is easy to see how aman might in two years tire of Oxford and want to continue hispostgraduate work somewhere else. We understand that the nativesare rather snooty to our prize expatriates. Two years of snubbingis enough for anyone. Or another school on the island might offersomething to a student that he can not get at Oxford.But the last provision that a scholar can study at a college onthe continent of Europe after two years of bad weather, pleasesus most. It is quite possible that a man might be unsympathetictoward the English people and want to get away from hearingthe American language butchered. He might have a latinfobiaand long to risk a bad crossing of the channel just to attend theSorbonne in Paris where student life is less stilted and formal; andwhere a cup of cafe filtre at the D’Harcourt is worth twenty poundcakes. Then there is the University of Munchen, the beering cen¬ter of the globe. Here lies one of the most attractive campuses thatwe have visited. Besides, there are the Uaiversities of Heidelberg,Vienna, Milan, Rome, and Berlin, and a host of other places. Ithas always seemed a shame that a man of Rhodes scholarship type Ishould grow old at Oxford without attending any one of theseother places.Now, we believe, the Rhodes offering is really worth studyingfor, and learning how to fence and play lacrosse at any early age.!

The view from Cobb had beenspoiled for me two years back byone of the inevitable English instruc¬tors who one morning told the com¬position class I was in to describeBillings in about three hundredwords as it appeared from CobbHall.What I saw didn’t impress me. Iwrote that Billings was a nice greysolid building, done in the Gothicstyle. . . .that it was sturdy (what¬ever that meant) ... .that the rowson rows of very square windows re¬minded me of prison cells withoutthe bars.1 wrote the wrong things, ofcourse. The instructor talked of spir¬itual values and of beautifullycar\’ed niches. .. .and of symmetri¬cal lines. . . .and of form. . . .and ofcuives. . . .and of atmosphere. Andsome of us who had failed to evalu¬ate Billings in those terms lookedsheepishly at the pedant and mur¬mured polite imprecations to our¬selves. Of course we gave the in¬structor a great deal of credit. Wefelt that .she was a soul who un¬derstood the Higher Things in Life,whereas most of us were freshmenand were certain that in due timewe too would acquire a soul..\nd so whenever ^ looked at themedical building after that I remem¬bered the fiasco of that morning in ]the compo.sition class, and acquired ia cordial dislike for Billings.When 1 looked at it yesterday ;afternoon I did not feel that way. jIt was still a building of grey stoneand as ever, massive. But it al¬most seemed to frighten me yester-jday, for it was so big and yet so 1lifeless. The building lacked a soul.There were the same even rowsof windows. . . .still the same cells.One cell seemed a bit more attrac¬tive. Home-like curtains draped thecorners. It reminded me that per¬haps a human being resided therewho looked out on the passing scene;perhaps, a human being who wond¬ered what kind of creatures livedin Cobb Hall,.\nd I saw light . . . yellowlights that unquestionably werecheery and inviting. My hopes rose;life did exist within the four walls.That was all. I saw' one or twofaces and then they disappeared.Grey Bellings from Cobb looked ter¬ribly depressing. I was happy thatI was in Cobb.A.

In 1929 the .Maroons tookpractically every event, but grddua-tion and other losses have so hamp¬ered the squad chat Coach Vorres’wrestlers can be given little ^vant¬age.Minnesota, pos.sessing one of thestrongest teams in the Big Ten thi.<»year, had a great deal of trouble indowning tiie Maroons; a 19-15 de¬feat by Minnesota should indicatethat the Bartlett team will be up inthe running. Wisconsin is yet un¬tried although they enter a squadfurnishing stiff competition.Captain Winning, Rohs, Thomas,and Kallol have been working hardthis week, for it is yet undecidedwhich of these will take the trip.Dyer is almost undisputably the classof the 138 pound division, and isone of the few Maroon grapplerscertain of a berth. In the 118 poundclass there are four candidates,Louis, Ihnat, Merryman ,and Burn-stein, each anxious to accompany thesquad. The 148 pound division isstill another problem; Adler andSavitsky are matmen of equal prow¬ess, and it is difficult to choose be¬tween the two.
