Governor of Kansas Payne Ratner 7!Le Qauefmaa, Me They Niue men and Women serving the state of Kansas as the Board of Regents, act as a governing council for all the state insti- tutions of higher learning. With the ap- proval of the governor and the legislature. and from recommendations by the presi- dent, they determine the policies by which we work. Their job is that of spending, making faculty appointments and promo- tions, fixing salaries-they have the last Word in the administration of this college. Governor Ratner, who has shown a real in- terest in education, recently reorganized the board on a non-political basis.

7454 Magazine Problem NO QUESTION ABOUT it-most students don't take this maga- zine problem seriously enough. The problem has two sides-the Student Council's side and the students' side. The Council thinks that students don't appreciate the magazines be- cause they cut out the pictures, write on some of the pages and draw mus- taches on the girls on the covers. On the other hand, some students feel that if a magazine is good for any- thing at all, it ought to have enough pictures in it to go around-so that lots of people could cut out lots of pictures. Also, if a fellow can't draw a few mustaches on the cigaret ads and the cover girls-well, what's life coming to, anyway? So The Sunflower is coming to the rescue with some solutions to the problem. First, let's separate the magazines into two piles-one pile for those who agree with the Council and don't want to cut out pictures or draw mustaches. Another pile for the By game Gwwfafuf doodlers and cutter-outers and mus- tache artists. Also, because The Sunflower wants to do its share in providing material for this latter class, we have put some special fea- tures in this issue. In the back of the book funless the Back-of-the- Book Editor forgot theml will be found some pictures which are ideal for drawing mustaches. Also, we have included a cartoon which may be cut from the book and hung in the room of almost any college boy. We had to leave the Words out on account of censoring, but think of the fun a Picture-Cutter-Outer can have writ- ing in his own words. Or in case he can't write, the PCO can just imag- ine the words-and whistle the tune. Anyway, it's all in the spirit of being helpful. But we just had a terrible vision- suppose fperish the thoughtlb that some of the Council Members them- selves are doodlers and mustache drawers! Somebody start an investigation!
