"It's notup to last year's team," seemed to be the tenorof the remarks heard around the campus andat the fraternity houses.Hang last year's team! The sooner we for­get we had a team last year the better for us.I t is not to be expected that in one month ateam can be built up into championship form.We keep comparing our team this year, in itspresent stage of development, with that of '99,as it was in the Wisconsin game, forgetting thefive weeks of training and coaching that lie be­tween the two dates. If one will take thetrouble to look back through the brilliant fin­ish that blinds, to the faults of last year's team,he will find that at this time Notre Drme hadscored on us and Iowa had pushed us all overthe field, and virtually defeated us as decisive- Came we over barren desertSeeking pasture fresh and green,Where the murmuring sound of watersGlides the meadows low between.Came we slowly, blindly, trusting,Bear we in our arms the lambThat from out the fold was straying,From the fold of Abraham.ly as Brown did Saturday. It's the ups anddowns that go with the game.We haven't a poor team. It's a good team.The men are all hard fighters, and have theUniversity stamped in their hearts. There isnot a "quitter" in the squad. They get out onthe field at four and work-no one exceptthose that have been through it knows howthey do work--until after dark. They aretrampled on, they are bruised. they are groundinto the dirt, and the sand burs are ground intothem-yet many of them can't even hope. toget a "C." It's that indescribable somethingthat makes a man put his university aboveevery thing else, that keeps them at it.How do we appreciate their work? Do wegrumble because they loose a game? Do wemeet them the next day and ask, "For gadsake, old man, what'? the matter with you fel­lows? Can't you get together? I lost ten586dollars on you yesterday." I'm afraid some ofus do.Let's show them that we have faith in them. and that they belong to us. Jolly them upwhen ever we can. Don't wait until we get onthe field, but make them feel all through theweek that we're with them, body and soul.That will help. to bring them together andcheer them up more than all the coaches canpossibly do. WALTER SCOTT KENNEDY.Football Notes.Chicago's poor showing against Brown, al­though discouraging, was scarcely a matter ofsurprise to a majority of the student body.The knowledge that the team was way behindin its development, 'that the men were almostdaily being tried in new and unaccustomedpositions, and that several of the most inde­spensible players were in no condition to goon the field at all, was quite sufficient to makecampus opinion favor a Brown victory, or atthe best, a tie score. Our greatest cause fordisappointment lies in the fact that we wereovercome 'by a team which was not anywherenear the first class, and, too, was not nearly asgood as we had expected. Taking this intoconsideration it se�ms very doubtful whethereven the first rate football material we possesscan be moulded into a team able to competeon an even footing with a member of theEastern "big four" this week.Although the hope of a Chicago victory atPhiladelphia this week is hardly within therange of possibility, there seems to be littlereason as yet for us to despair of attaininganother Western championship. None of ourprincipal rivals in this part of the country havethus far done anything very wonderful; noneof them have. beaten Chicago, or made largerscores than Chicago against the same oppo­nents; and, according to all reports, none ofthem display more consistent playing abilitythan we do, or have better prospects of im­prov-ing in this respect in the near future. Thewhole truth of the matter seems to be thatthere is an unaccountable decline in the qualityof western football this year, as exemplified bythe teams of Chicago, Michigan and Wisconsin;and that Minnesota, Iowa, Illinois and North- western, although perhaps better representedon the gridiron than they were in I899, havenot so far given indication of any decidedsuperiority over these former champions .At least one of these cases of doubtfulsuperiority will be settled this week when Illi­nois and Michigan meet on Marshall Field.There is realy no basis for com parison betweenthe two schools, since in not a single instancehave they come up against the same oppo­nents. Perhaps the fairest way of stating thecase, however, will be to reprint the scores ofthe various games played by each, and letevery reader pick the winner for himself.Michigan has beaten Hillsdale, 29-0; Kalama­zoo, II-O; Case, 24-6; and Purdue, II-6. Illi­nois has beaten Rose Polytechnic, 26-0; Wes­leyan, 2I-0; Physicians and Surgeons, 6-0;Lombard, 35-0; Knox, 16-0; and has tied withNorthwestern. Neither aggregation of playershas done consistent work, and both are sure todisplay serious faults in team work on Saturday.But inconclusive as all this evidence is, thereare probably many who will share with thewriter a sort of sneaking belief that Michiganwill win.This state of uncertaifiity is quite reversedin the East. There the "big four" has been assuccessful as ever in establishing its suprem­acy, and probably even Cornell, and theIndians, Who have yet to meet its members ina trial of strength, will be unable- to-makemuch impression on this Gibraltar of Ameri­can football. Columbia, which created such asensation by defeating Yale last season,. hassignally failed this year to attain anything re­sem bling its former standard of excellence, andthe discomfiture of the white and blue will becompleted by the assured victory of the NewHaven men at New York this week.Oct.

There are morethan twenty colleges in the country that haveeach income-producing property of more than"$1,000,000. Harvard has more than $10,000,000and Yale has about $5,000,000. Chicago has$8,000,000, Cornell $6,000,000, and Johns Hop­kins $3,000,000. Columbia has a yearly incomeof $425,000. Among the other colleges thatpossess interest-beating funds of at least $1,-000,000 are Brown,Western Reserve, Princeton,Tulane, Wesleyan, Amherst and Rochester.The wealthy universities of California, of Mich­igan, of Wisconsin, and of Minnesota haveeach a yearly income, secured by State legis­lature, considerably more than the income of$1,000,000.Four-fifths of the productive funds of col­leges are invested in bonds and mortgages. Afew colleges have large amounts invested instocks, and a few, such as Harvard and Colum­bia, have invested largely in real estate.In regard to the expenditure of these in­comes different plans prevail at differentinstitutions. In the University of Michigan,two-thirds of the income goes to instructionand one-third to administration. In the U ni­versity of California four-fifths goes to in­struction and one-firth to administration.The salary of the better paid American pro­fessors is about $2,000 and of other professors$r,500. Two or three colleges pay a very fewof their professors as "much as $6,000, Thepresent tendency is toward an increase in thesalaries of professors and a decrease for in­structors.-[Columbia Spectator.CLASS OR.GANIZATION.Letter by the President.President Schurman has been asked by astudent of the University to give his opinionon the resolution presented by a member ofthe Freshman class at a recent meeting whichprovides that membership in that class organ­ization shall be restricted to men students.President Schurman's reply is of general inter­est and is given herewith:Dear Mr. ----:Although the subject of class organization is entirely1ll the hands of the students, I cannot refuse to complywith the request so politely urged in your favor of theContinued on Page 594588ZIbe 1fllli\)er5it�, of '(tbtcago 'UUleekl\?EDITORIAL BOARD.FinWERICl( G, MOLONEY/U:'THUR FREDEIdC BEIFELD- '- M anag ing EditorAssociate EditorASSISTANT EulTVl<.S,LOUISI': DODGE, '03.

These articleswere directed against one' �f .our best knownand most popular professors and have ,justlyaroused considerable indignation. As towhether the use of what 'is sl-ang today andidiomatic usage tomorrow is justifiable as ameans of instilling the' truths'. _of history intothe minds of University students or not, is anopen question. Certainly much may be saidfor and against the proposition. But' as towhether it is justifiable for any loyal membersof the University to write for the daily paperssuch articles as appeared recently orto distrib­ute information and furnish 'material for suchabsolute falsehoods, is a matter about whichthere should be no question, Such misrcpre­sentations are especially aggravating. when theyemanate from a class composed almost entire­ly of freshmen. Wouldn't it be just as' w�ll,young friends of 1904, if you waited until youhad become sufficiently acquainted with theUniversity and your instructors to kno�. wherethe real good and bad points are in the col­lege before leaping haphazard into that mostunpopular of all fields-the criticism of yourbetters?We will not demean these pages sufficientlyto quote the petition, conceived by some re�porter, whose brilliant imaginaticn should havebeen turned to better use.' I t is enough to saythat it should have been served as cutting re­buke for those' who made the writing of thisarticl� possible. The petty mean.ness neces­.sary to a person who will go and listen to aspleasant and interesting an instructor as thegentleman maligned, and take notes for -th epurpose of furnishing sensation material for anewspaper, is certainly a problem for characterreformation, with which higher education isunable to cope.In regard to the article the professor says: '"Iadmit I use slang in my quizzes, but never inmy lectures. I couldn't teach a class of 92freshmen dead history in Addisonian English;they'd all go to sleep. I use live talk and findslang very expressive."In regard to the two other objections inclu­ded in the fictitious petition, the professor'sown words are the best reply: "As for know­ing the names of my pupils, I have, as I saidbefore, ninety-two freshmen in my class, and Ihave not yet had time. to learn all their names.I t is a base slander to accuse me of disrespecttoward the Christian." religion, as any of mypupils will tell you."In conclusion we simply advise all peoplewho do not enjoy hearing slang in the class­rooms to shun these classes. The Universitydoes not force any man or woman to take anycourse under one particular instructor. 1£ youdo register for a course which turns out as anoffense against your aesthetic taste then changeit; you need'nt even pay a dollar! If youdon't change, then for the sake of the col!cgewhich is to be your Alma Mater, and for thesake of your own self respect, show yourself tobe a man or a woman and not a peevish child.A professor puts up with considerable inat­tention and lack of preparation without goingto the newspapers with his troubles, and hisclasses would do well to imitate his example,even in face of such expressions as "packedher off."Dear freshmen, and especially freshmengirls, don't let him "jar you."New students are asking where the coat rooms arelocated. We would like to be enlightened.The Junior College Council is making preparationsfor the annual freshman convocation. 589I t has happened at recentA Question Junior College division lecturesof that some of the men haveFairness. shown their lack of interest byscuffling their feet, snappingtheir watch covers and talking with theirneighbors. Such annoying conduct, it is need­less to say, is scarcely compatible with the ideaof a college man. But even if this were aproper method of intimating to an instructorthat his talk was becoming tiresome, yet it.should be remembered that the lecturer doesnot come before the division assembly with hiscarefully prepared address solely for the pur­pose of vexing the undergraduate body, butthat he is there practically because of the sameedict which compels the attendance of thestudent, and. that' it is very unfair that heshould be made to suffer because of a bad sys­tern..

In supportof its action the faculty states that while secret societiesmay be of utility in some of the larger universities,where social unity is a practical impossibility, yet in mostinstitutions, and in the small colleges most of all, theyare a positive harm in that they interfere with collegeunity, draw abnormal social lines, enter into athleticsand other elections, and divert loyalty from the collegeitself to the fraternities.Brown Deserved It-But We're Not Dead Yet./What Has Become of the Band?We are forced to enquire what has becomeof the University Band that used to lead us at"H T' " d "B'fflthe games as we sang ot im e an 1.Boom r Bang!" and all' our other jolly battlesongs? We understood that the band was to, beat the game Saturday and aid us in cheenngon the team. There was, indeed, a sort of anorchestra in front of one of the sections otrooters, but as its only activity consisted inplaying a melancholy tune or two, which,though classical, was a trifle untimely, we con­cluded that it could not be the UniversityBand, and wished that the management wouldnot give front seats to such disheartening or­ganizations. It has been whispered since,however, 'that this body. of musicians was, infact, the band, but that they mistook the natureof the occasion and thought that they were togive a band concert of the Summer Q�artervariety. This was a most unfortunate rmscori­ception, for we never needed the help of a reallive band more than we did on Saturday.Nothing can equal the inspiring airs of a goodbrass band for keeping up the spirits of bothteam and rooters. The band has now twoweeks in which to learn some lively pieces be­fore the next home game.

A Peachy College is an institution wherethere abide in Primeval Ignorance, gigglingpretty Freshmen girls. The Peachy Collegehad also Daisy Buildings. A Daisy Buildingis one four stories in height, made of whitestone and topped with a red tile roof. But forone circumstance the Peachy College wouldhave had no troubles of its own. A circum­stance, by the way, is the inability at times tograb the juicy purse of some rich corporationlike the Flag-on-a- Pole Oil Company. Theparticular circumstance which troubled thePeachy College at this time was the Fact thatit had only a mortgage on its' Gymnasium. AGymnasium is a long, low, brick building whichused your soap two years ago ,and has used noother since. In a Gymnasium the rightfulowners-the .men-v-have at one end plenty ofbooks .to eat, at the other a Goaway piano tonestle in and in the center a rubber track.The trustees of the Peachy College were ina dilemna. If they could not meet the mort­gage all those attending classes in the Gyrnna­sium would have to be given Cuts.At this juncture a Bright Idea attacked the_president of the Peachy College."'1 have it,' said he; -"I shall run for an Illi­nois Central train with good speed, visit a KindFriend of the Peachy College and ----."'Here the President broke down at thethought of old times.

The, members ofthe clubs are especially bitter over this decision, whichthey consider a poor return for their faithful practice,and their willingness at all times to help out studentmeetings. lt is even hinted that the organizations maygo out of existence. 'During this quarter Dean Talbot lectures to the UpperJuniors on the following subjects: "Sanitary signifi­cance of house to community;" "Modern ideas concern­ing tenements;" "Way by which community as a wholecontrols' the householder ;" "Ways in which householderis free to control his house;" "Discussion of present dayproblems of sanitation;" "Intellectual, aesthetic andmoral questions regarding sanitation." These lecturesare the division lectures of the Upper Juniors.Northwestern University is the recipient through anunknown donor, of $30,000 for the erection of a newwomen's hall. It is thought the gift is conditional onthe raising of a like amount. The new building, whenerected, WIll be similar to the present College Cottage, ahome for girls in moderate' circumstances. Myron H.Wilson of Evanston has also contributed enough moneyto replace the old Northwestern University Settlementbuilding, on West Chicago avenue. It is thought thatthe amount is about $50,000.President Angell of Michigan delivered his annual re­ports to the regents last week. Says the "U. of M.Daily:" "The report was so interesting that 10,000copies were ordered printed for distribution among thealumni of the University." There were 714 womenin attendance, a gain of 40 over the preceeding year;the number of students from Illinois jumped from 328to 354. "Michigan increased her representation fromIQ74 to 2006; Ohio from 199 to 215; Indiana from 113 to'129; New York from 85 to 97; Iowa nom 84 to 94; andseveral other states proportionately," Our Exchanges.It will interest many of the students to knowthat the following college publications, whichcomprises the 'exchange list of the WEEKLY,areon the exchange table in the general library,where students are at liberty to peruse them:Ariel, U niv of Minnesota Albion College PleiadBrunonian, Brown Univ Bulletin, Uni of MichiganColumbia 'Spectator Cornell SunCornell Era Daily Cardinal U of WDaily Palo Alto Stanf'd U, Harvard CrimsonHarvard Lampoon Illini U of IKnox Student Notre Dame ScholasticNorthwestern' Occident U of CalOberlin Review Olive & Blue New OrleansPurple & Gold Bellevue Neb Purdue ExponentRound Table Beloit Stentor Lake ForrestSyracuse Uni Herald SUI Quill Iowa CityThe Tiger Princeton T?e Tech Boston.U of Michigan Daily, Vidette-Reporter Iowa CItyWesl'yanArgus Bloomington Williams WeeklyYale News Yale RecordYale Alumni Weekly New Haven ConnecticutCLASS ORGANIZATION.Continued from Page 58713th in st. , to express my opinion upon the resolutionnow pending before the Freshman class, which aims, asyou say, "to exclude the women students 'from member­ship in the class of 1904,"That the right point of view may be at once securedI must ask you to bear in mind that co-education is thesettled policy of Cornell University, and that the womenhave, in all official relations, the same rights and priv­ileges as men students. In determining the relationsbetween men and women students which fall outside thejurisdiction of the authorities of the Universi�y, thisspirit of equality should be an ever present and control­ling consideration.The question of class organization is in one both ofjustice and expediency. The fact is that women aremembers of the class which will graduate in 1904. Andprecedent, whereof the memory of no student run to thecontrary, has established the 'rights of women to sharewith men in the organization of the Freshmen and other.classes in the University. The women's claim to mem­bership in the organizations rests on the fact that theyare members of the classes and upon the establishedcustom of organizing in that way. Their claim may, in­deed, be negatived by the adoption of a class constitu-,tion which should make a new departure in the directionof separate class organizations. But, in view of thefacts and considerations just mentioned, I should con­sider it unfair to deprive the women of their traditionalright or privilege by amajority vote of the class of 1904.in which, as in all other classes, the number of mengreatly exceeds the number of women. Justice seemsto me to demand that if any change is made it should bewith the consent and approval of the majority of thewomen of the class. If it appears to a considerablenumber of those who have a traditional claim to mem­bership in the class organization of 1904, that, contraryto custom, the women who are to graduate in that yearshould not share in that mombership, then the questionshould be voted on by the men and women separately,and the departure from custom should not be consideredapproved unless such poll showed a majority vote of thewomen, at least, in its favor.I should like to add here that the question underdiscussion calls for sober and mature consideration, notonly from the members of the Freshman class, but fromalJ the undergraduates of the University. The Fresh­men of this year will be the sophomores, juniors andseniors of succeeding years; and what they do for fouryears cannot but have a profound influence on the or­ganization of all future classes. While the resolutionpending is before the Freshman class-and no otherclasses can vote on it-it seems to me that the membersof all other classes should carefully consider the matterand, in conversations and through the medium of stu­dents publications, give the freshmen the benefit oftheir maturer, more experienced, and perhaps more dis­interested ad vice.So far I have examined the question from the stand­point of justice and the rights of women. It remainsnow LO consider the expediency of the proposed measure.And this cannot be determined without ascertaining theend, purpose or function of the class organization. Thepurpose of our class organizations seems to be the for­mation of athletic groups, the celebration of victories byparades, etc., the holding of banquets, suppers andsmokers, the institution of balls, cotillions and hops, theissue of the class annual in the junior year, and the classday exercises at graduation. I cannot recall other ob­jects, though I do not pretend to have given an exhaus­tive summary. But substantially these are the purposesfor which tho social impulse is yoked to a class organi­zation. And to further them, officers are elected andtaxes levied upon the members (the women contribut­ing) to buy sweaters, etc., for the athletes.Of all the functions of the class organization from thefreshman to senior year, the only ones in which thewomen participate with the men are, I believe, the classday exercises at graduation and, sometimes, the bring­ing out of the junior annual. The men students, (orsome of them) I am told, would prefer separate classorganizations for men and women students becausetheir functions are in fact separate. And they point tothe other fact that the women students, over and abovetheir membership in the general class organization,already have separate class organizations of their own.The demand is for a similar organization for the menstudents, and the abolition of the present general classorganization which the men monopolize for their ownmasculine objects (with tbe sole exception of class dayexercises and, sometimes, the issuing of the juniorannual. )A further oomplaint is that althongh (w ith the excep­tion already noted) the present general class organiza­tion exists for masculine ends, the women members Or595it by their votes are in a position to regulate tbe mannerof accomplishing those ends, even if it be the bolding ofa banquet at which only men are present.Another feature of the present arrangement whichgives dissatisfaction among tbe [men students (or someof tbem) is the influence which the women exert-andhave the rigbt to exert-in the election ot the classofficers, whose functions are as predominantly mascu­lineas are be objects of the class organization. Tbereis a feeling that under the present system masculine in­terests are subjected to feminine control. In tbeir classorganizai ions the women elect their own officers withoutaid from men. The latter (or some of them) now desirean organization of men students in which, similarly menalone shall enjoy the right of suffrage.I mention these circumstances and complaints as theyhave come to my knowledge. And though I cannot un­dertake to say how widely the feeling extends to whichthey give expression, I believe tbat it has gone farenough to demand a bearing from those concerned; andmy chief desire is that both sides of the question mayreceive, from the entire undergraduate body, that care­ful, patient, important and sober consideration whichits importance merits.In view of the fact that the women students haverights to class membership by custom, and that co-edu­eation is settled at Cornell, what is it just and expedientto do in the present circumstances? I answer, anythingthat the majority of the women, after deliberation andconference with the men, deem adequate to tbe removalor mitigation of the alleged bardsbips of which the mencomplain. Separate class organizations? Yes, if thewomen desire them. The retention of the present or­ganization, with some modifications? Yes, if the womendesire it. And among those modifications, perbaps adivision of officers among tbe men and women (with nojoint voting except for president) and a delimitation oftbe masculine from the general functions of the classorganization, with the relegation of the former to theexclusive control of the men students, might be found atonce the most feasible of execution and the most effec­ti ve in good results.I leave the matter, however, where it belongs, to thebody of our undergraduates. I have implicit confidencein their good sense, their fair play, and their loyalty totbe University. I feel that the solution of the problemdevolves especially upon the women students; and whileI hope tbat there will be no invasion by others of therights and privileges they bave hitherto enjoyed, I amconfident that the women students themselves wjll bewilling to propose such a revision of the existing meth­od of class orgamzation as will 1 emove just grievencesand c.immand the approval of all fiair minded men.Vel y sincerely yours,J.
