THE CHAMPION OF THE 
POOR STI DENT AND 
THE CO-ED.

A certain .student has offered 
us a lengthy Firing Line article! 
in which he opposes the blanket 
tax on the grounds that it would 
be unjust to the working .student j 
and the co-ed, and to those who 
do not care to read ‘‘some little 
local paper.”

“ But you don’t subscribe for 
The Texan and would never see 
your article if it were printed,” 
a member of the .^taff said to 
him when he presented the ar­
ticle at the office.

“Oh, yes, I would,” he replied. 
Some of the fellows gel the paper 
over at the boarding house, and 
I always read it.”

We get just a little bit weary 
of such opposition to any worthy 
enterprise by the parasite— the 
lait never 
student who enjoys 
pays.

Not only has this particular 
person read during the whole 
year a paper which somebody 
else, probably no abler than he, I 
paid for, but he now has the J 
presumption to offer to the paper, 
which he will not support a n ! 
article which 
it will cost The 
Texan at least $2 to run.

Again we say that the work­
ing student will not object to the 
blanket 
tax. The opposition 
comes from him who out of sym ­
pathy for the poor working stu­
dent and for love of the Univer­
sity, which he would not have 
known as a rich man’s school, 
is too anxious to let the poor boy 
and the rich boy, and the boy of 
moderate means, or anybody 
else, pay or refuse to pay, so 
long as he forgoes none of his 
parasitic advantages.

Self Convicted.

“ I contend,” says the gentle­
man referred to above, “that all 
students buy 
season athletic 
tickets, subscribe for The Daily 
to the 
'Texan, and contribute 
support of the other items pro­
vided for in the proposed tax 
who can afford or care to do so.” 
The writer of the article either 
isn’t able to pay for-The Texan, 
or doesn’t care to pay for it. 
If the first is true, he confesses 
his willingness 
to enjoy that 
which, because of lack of means, 
he doesn’t pay for; ii the second 
is true, he confessedly doesn’t 
care to pay for that which he 
uses. In either case he turns his 
own argument upon himself. The

FIRING LINE

into one fee, which 

T H E PRO PO SED B L A N K E T T A X .
The blanket tax has for its purpose 
the combining o f the expense of vari­
ous activities 
it 
is claimed will am ount to $6.50, and 
force every student to pay this fee 
just as at 
before he m atriculates, 
present he is required to pay the m ed­
ical arid other 
fe e s before he can 
matriculate.

I maintain th at at present all s t u ­
dents buy season ath letic tickets, sub­
s c r ib e fur The Daily Texan and con­
tribute to the su pp ort of the other 
items provided for in the proposed tax 
who can afford, or care to do so. Then 
why force the tax upon those who for 
any reason s a tisfa c to ry to them selves 
they would not care to buy? 
I con­
tend further that if this proposed tax 
is adopted 
injustice 
and hardship upon at least four groups 
of students:

it will work an 

First— There are a great many s t u ­
dents attending the University who, 
financial reasons, would be an 
for 
injustice to force this extra expense 
upon them.
Second 

’There are quite a number 
of students who come to the U niver­
sity seeking mental training, d if f e r ­
ent from that which is to be obtained 
from watching an athletic contest, or 
reading some little local paper which 
they did not have the time to read, 
and for other reasons satisfactory to 
them selves they would not care to be 
taxed this extra $6.50.

Third—Then we have a large num­
ber of students w h ose afternoon peri­
ods would be taken up iii laboratory 
work during the tim e that the d iffe r ­
ent athletic gam es would be played.

Fourth Then the young ladies who 
would be forced to pay this fee would 
have to attend a great many of the 
ga m e s by them selves; that is, if they 
attended at all. Now, I contend that 
for either one, or more, or all of the 
above named reasons, this tax should 
not be adopted. Som e claim that we 
should be “sp orty,” and have athletics 
and other things equal to some of the 
large Northern colleges and univer­
sities. Now as for m yself, I ani not 
opposed to h av in g athletics, and the 
other things provided for in this pro­
posed tax, if we g e t them by any other 
means save the one of forcing such 
support upon everyb ody regardless of 
whether he is able or willing to su p ­
l f our ath letics has reached 
port it. 
th at point where its support must be 
forced upon the students, does it not 
appear that our athletics has ceased 
to be sport, and has become tyrran y?

 Candidate for

President Students’ Association

A man
familiar
with
student
problems
and
University
needs.

A man 
who
promises 
to direct 
student 
effort to 
constructive 
reforms.

RAYMOND M. MYERS

Politics, as such, has more than received its due attention in 
the past. A POLITICAL RING seeks to DOMINATE all student 
affairs, even to the office of President of the Students' A sso­
ciation.

Myers promises to direct STU D E N T ATTENTION and S T U ­
DENT EFFORT to the solution of S T U D E N T PROBLEMS. 
He has NO POLITICAL ROSS to whom to account. He can rep­
resent the WHOLE ST U D EN T RODY, for he is receiving the 
REST SUPPORT of all factions.

Barb Nominee for 
P R E S ID E N T OF S T U D E N T S ’ ASSOCIATION

The candidate who is closest in touch with the student body as a whole 
and is hest able to respond to their desires. Probably has a greater number 
of personal friends than any other man in school, and therefore will have 
the confidence and support o f more students than the other candidate.

Griffin favors giving the defendant the right to be represented by coun­
sel in trials before the S tu dents’ Council. B elieves iii making the Council 
more of a judicial body and not both a prosecuting attorney and a jury.

GTiffin has had actual experience on the S tu dents’ Council and is the 
man qualified to carry out the reform s that are needed to better the Honor 
System . His opponent has never served on the Council. A man who has 
never served tin the body that administers the Honor System can not know 
the real defects in I he procedure of the Council and the remedies needed.

I^oyal students will vote so as to insure a sound business administration 

and a closer relationship between each student in the University.
