WE CAN GO AHEAD NOW
With the appointment of Dr. M. L. Burton as
president of the University, Michigan may resume
her policy of progress with a new confidence.
The restlessness that predominates during a
period when an organization has no. active head
is bound to be injurious.. The members of the or-
ganization'as well as .the retiring executive often fail
to make progressive moves fearing that they will
act in opposition to the ideas of the incoming ad-
ministration. The whole organization lies dor-
mant. A condition exists such as the industrial
world finds itself in today because the peace treaty
'ha~s not been signed.
The University has beeti, looking for a man ca-
pable of filling the chair of the president of one
of the most famous state universities in the United
States. The period was one of unrest and at times
was embarrassing.
Although we do not know the definite. policies
of Dr. Burton, his record shows that he is a broad-
minded educator of the kind that Michigan needs-
and with such a man guiding her destinies, the
University may now resume with renewed vigor.
its march of progress.
WHY?
What's the matter with Minnesota?
Dr. Burton, president of its state university, has
resigned and is going to head the great University.
of Michigan at Ann Arbor.
He is a good man, was making good as presi-
dent of the University of Minnesota, and he should
have been kept.
A little while ago the University of Minnesota
had another good man as president-Dr. Vincent.-
The Rockefeller Foundation got him. Minnesota
lost him, as it is losing Dr. Burton. .
Why?
Minnesota is richer than Wisconsin; which has
a great university. It is as rich as Michigan, which
also, has a great university. It ,is rich enough to
get, the best man in the 'country to head its state
university, and it is rich enough to keep him.
But it doesn't. It gets good men, but it can't keep
them. It has lost many members of its faculty
which. it. should have kept.
Why? Apparently for -no other reason than
that other institutions can offer more than ours
can.
If that is so, there is no possible excuse for it,'
and Minnesota should look into it. If its legisla-f
ture is niggardly with its university, the state ought,
to know it, and it ought to correct it: Getting good
men, enjoying their help just long enough to find
out how good tfhey are; and then losing them, is
bad for the morals of a university, and bad for
the reputation of a state. The University of Min-
nesota ought to rank with Wisconsin and Michi-
gan. If it keeps up this practice of letting good
men go, presently it wof't rank with anything ex-
THE BASKET BALL TEAM HAS PAVED
THE WAY
With the statement by tihe captain of the Var-
sity basketball team that Michigan's . showing dur-
ing the holiday frip was excellent, Michigan can-
not afford to- forget the paramount duty of the
students, faculty, and alumni of the University
during the year 199-1920--that'of paking it im-
possible for Michigan to have such a disastrous
season as the football season last fall.
The basketball team's prospects look promising.
The team played like real Michigan-calibered men.
Wie are proud of them. But as TheDaily stated
during the football season last year, a large amount
of the success of a team depends updn the support,
given, by the students. Our temporary duty.
therefore, in solving Michigan's athletic problem is
to support the basketball team, our permanent duty
to do everything within our power to see that we
are again hailed as Champions of the West.
The duty of the student, faculty member, and
alumnus in regard to the. athletic situation is easy
to discover and easy to perform. It is merely a
matter of suppoting the athletic teams not only in
attendance at the games but also in the spirit
shown at the games and while discussing the teams
in informal talks, in helping the interfraternity
council in its movement to secure high school ath-
letes, and in spreading Michigan propaganda.

The man concealed behind the curtain felt again

terrible hatred which had been smouldering in his
eyes for years burst into flames as he let his mind

and his yung wife had been happy in their small
but cosy cottage. All had gone. well until Ru-
dolph Lotsakale had come into their lives. It was
the old, old story-Rudolph could give her the
things which he, her husband, could not-those4
things which to one of her temperament were al-
most as necessary as air and food itself. With
blind, unreasoning faith he had trusted her until
he came home one might to find that she had gone
away with Rudolph. Since then he had been sus

Just as the would-be-murderer was about to fire

lated with terror. By the cruel irony of fate he was
cheated of his vengeance just at the moment when
