WHAT THE REGENTS FORGOT
of the most significant steps in Michigan's
tional progress was taken last May when the
of Regents recognized the School of Educa-
s an independent professional college of the
rsity. Rapid strides have already been made
y of adapting the school to its new status, but
dden energence into full college rank has
d a serious hardship upon a considerable
r of students who are carrying work in Edu-
the time the action was taken, provision was
whereby the present senior class might be
ited to the rules prevailing when this school
part of the Literary college. Although eight
s have passed since this occurred, prospec-
achers its the class of 1923 are just beginning
n to their dismay that they cannot receive the
teacher's certificate unless they change the
im of courses which they have planned and
in the new college, carrying an increased
er of hours of work. Many are not prepared
this.
new ruling is' of unquestioned value as a
of raising the standard of the teaching forces
state, and should not lightly be set aside; but
gan owes a moral obligation to the students
:ome here for training, and this fact should
lost sight of. When the present juniors en-
as freshmen, those who intended to teach
committed to a certain standard which the
rsity has changed arbitraril'y.
hould be an easy matter for the authorities
end the ruling which now covers the class of
and make it include the juniors, many of
are as deep in the study of Education as are
niors. Such a measure certainly would be
r one of justice to those concerned, aind
eliminate much sof a certain difficulty which
ird-year students may face, in attempting to
their courses fit the changed requirements.
A REPLY FROM THE WEST
tsiderable discussion has been aroused in col-
e circles of late regarding .a recent statement,
ned in a report of President Lowell of Har-
to the overseers of his university, regarding
.ilings of the present system of handling col-

President Lowell says in part: "The single boat
race between Oxford and Cambridge on the
Thames, and the cricket match between those uni-
versities, supplemented in each case by a series of
intramural contests, has been enough to stimulate
unflagging interest in those sports among the stu-
dents. Judging from the effect of the race at New
London, one may ask whether or not the same plan
would be sufficient in football. The necessity of
maintaining for this purpose a public spectacle at-
tended by thousands of spectators every Saturday
throughout the autumn is certainly not clear; and
whether it ought to be maintained is a matter worth
consideration."
The point is well taken, but it hardly covers the
entire ground. The present system of awarding
championship titles to the colleges or universities
having the highest standing during the year in foot-
ball and other sports, certainly furnishes an incen-
tive for the entire school, and makes for unity of
spirit throughout. It is doubtful, indeed, if the
same amount of interest would be maintained with
reference to a single-game schedule as is at present
evidenced over a championship series, and we are
inclined to believe that football would be apt to
die a slow and natural death, were the winning of
but one "big" game the sole incentive offered to
players and their supporters on the sidelines.
At the present time, the rules in force in Western
Conference football circles havea tendency to over-
come the objectionable points enumerated by Presi-
dent Lowell. We, of the Big Ten, are prevented
from playing a great number of games, and a com-
promise thus has been effected between the ten-or-
twelve-game schedule common in some parts of the
country, and President Lowell's one-game scheme.
In the final analysis, intercollegiates are our salva-.
tion from a financial standpoint. Last year, Michi-
gan had some 4,068 students engaged in intramural
athletics alone. But the Intramural department
furnishes no returns of itself, and is maintained en-
tirely through the income derived from the yearly
athletic schedule. It is from the returns of the an-
nual Big Ten program, in fact, that Michigan and
other universities are enabled to build and support
athletic plants of a nature calculated to permit a
continual extension of athletics throughout the en-
tire body of students.
We cannot deny that President Lowell's argu-
ments are fundamentally right, insofar as they re-
late to college athletics in general. But we do
maintain that the Western Conference long since
has grappled with the 'same problem as he has been
dealing with in relation to. Harvard, and that Con-
ference rulings offer about the nearest approach to
a satisfactory compromise possible under the exist-
ing conditions.
"THE ENGLISH YANKEE"
The death of Viscount James Bryce, of Dech-
mont, has deprived the world of its greatest politi-
cal economist, and America of one of her best
friends. As the author of "The American Com-
monwealth", and more recently of "Modern De-
mocracies", Viscount Bryce has gained both fame
for himself and understanding for America.
Viscount Bryce wrote his first great work before
his graduation from Oxford, an authoritative 'teat-
ise on "The Holy Roman Empire". At his death,
at eighty-three, he had just finished his "Modern
Democracies". He had found time in between for
a half dozen other great works, for conducting a
law practice, for holding the Regius Chair of Law
at Oxford, for serving in parliament, for acting as
a cabinet minister, for serving as ambassador to
the United States, for acting as head of the Belgian
atrocities commission, and for traveling in nearly
all parts of the world.
But his greatest accomplishment, or at least the
most important in the eyes of Americans, was his
work of interpreting America to England and Eng-
land to America. His influence during his ambas-
sadorship was undoubtedly a great factor in bring-
ing about the present good feeling between the
United States and Great Britain.
"The English Yankee" may be regarded as one
who has finished succe.ssfully a great work, a laige
item of which was concerned with the bringing of
two peoples into .a closer understanding of one an-
other.

Tie Telescope
It Sure Is!
When you have to leave your home and friends
And travel back to school,
When you have to get to work again
And have no time to fool;
When you know the "finals" you must take
Are coming 'long pell mell,
I ask you now, as stude to stude,
Ain't life hell?
'When you hear the campus chimes ring eight,
And hate to rise from bed ;
When you get to class ten minutes late
And find a bolt instead;
When you turn your weary steps towards home
And expect a letter swell,
Then find nothing but a bill or two,
Ain't life hell?
