For years to come this building, erected and equipped from profits made by The Daily, Gargoyle, and Michigan- ensian, will be the home of Michi- ga's student publications. Free fro= censorship and direct- ed by undergraduates during the regular' school year, the publications have played an important part in the intellectual development of stu- dents, as is proved by the hundreds of former publication men who now hold responsible positions in the publihing field. The Daily, founded in 1890 by a group of non--fraternity students, was run for years as a profit-mak- ing organization for those w h o worked on it, Later, however, it was .purchased by the University, and a Board in Control consisting of faculty men and students was placed over the editors as a guid- ing force. At all times, however, the editors have been free from rigid censorship. Proof of the farsighted- ness of the board and its business manager, Prof. Edson R. Sunder- land, of the Law school, is shown today by the new building. New Editing Plan. This aimmer for the first time The Daily is not being edited by students. Again in the fall, how- ever, undergraduates will take over the publication. In order to give the summer students a better paper and as a financial move, Dean Ed- ward H. Kraus and the Board in Control ruled this year to employ three graduate journalists to direct the work.' Previous to the founding of The Daily, two weeklies were printed on the campus-The Chronicle and the Michigan Argonaut. The Chronicle began publication in 1867 and the Michigan Argonaut in 1882. These papers represented two studnt fac- tions, Was Politically Maage. Campus politics in those days took the form of a contest between the non-fraternity and the fraternity men. As a result, a fraternity man would be picked as managing editor and business manager for one se- mester, and non-fraternity men for the following semester. In 1889-90 a dispute arose among the editors of the Chronicle as to which group should be in control during the sec- and semester. The quarrel ended in the independents leaving the staff. They further urged others of their group to boycott the paper. A movement soon began among the independents to establish a paper of their own, with the result that the U, of M. Independent asso- ciation was formed in the spring of 1890. The constitution of this new organization- provided for the pub- lishing of a weekly paper, and the election of a board of directors to edit it. Herbert B. Shoemaker, '91, was chosen as the first managing editor, and l4. R. Hammond, '91, was selected as the first business manager. Before the close of the s p r i n g session of 1890, enough pledges to subscribe to the paper were obtained to make the direc- tors feel confident that it would be a success, and a contract was made with Samuel R. Beakes, (later a Congressman), who published the Aruges, to print the paper. Changed to Daily. In the meantime, the Chronicle and the Michigan Argonaut com- bined and decided to publish a tri- weekly paper. Hammond, realizing that this would mean failure to the independent paper, decided that the only hope would be to bring out a daily. He corresponded with the other members of the board, and they finally agreed to share in the responsibility of publishing a daily paper. Before school opened in the fall, Hammond had secured suffici- ent contracts f o r advertisements from local and Detroit merchants to insure its success. The U. of lI. Independent was the name intended for the paper, but it was later decided to give it a non-partisan name, so it was called the U. of M. Daily. Later the name was changed to The Michigan Daily.

The new p 1 an of equalization, however, seems assur- ed of success, since it seeks only to amend an unfair assessment. Effects of the reduced taxation will be felt as early as next month, when the city taxes are paid. Taxes payable to county and state are not due until December. Individual fraternity and sorority houses may have their assessment figures reduced more or less than the specified 30 per cent, depending on whether they have been assessed too much or too little in the past. idt. --.Give Seven Plays 0 j Repertory Player Open Wednhsdy Nfit With Mr. NutPasses By' Offering a group of seven plays during the core of the Suninier Session, the Michir5an Repertory players, a group which includes among its members stage favorites of the past two seasons, will open the fourth summer season Wednes- day night, June 29, with the presen- tation in the Lydia Mendelssohn theater of "Mr. Pim Passes By," the Theatre Guld comedy success by A.
