of mr benjamin baker instructor in accounting as auditor of norton union finances outwurdly it appeared that mr baker's resignation was brought about through pressure of other business interests and lack of time but it was the general opin ion among student leaders this week that the auditor's withdrawal was a direct outgrowth of the re cent financial crises in campus publications notably the bison and the bee publications in mess as one member of the finance committee expressed lt mr bak er's job lias not been one of audi tor it has been one of pulling the publications out of one mess

resignation of mr benjamin baker from his post as auditor of student activities has brought the crisis in the campus publications to a head for years the university has made the publica tions the prize bundle of patronage and almost with out exception activities politicians have engaged in a wild orgy of throat-cutting in the mad scramble for the anticipated splits recently the combination of general economic conditions and the previous lowering of publica tion standards has resulted in a loss of interest on the part of the student body an accumulation of woes has been barking on the heels of the bee and the bison with ever-grow ing intensity and now the threat of cessatibn of ac tivity seems more imminent than ever before indifference of local advertisers to the college media loss of revenue caused by the past refusal of the administration to recognize the egitimate needs of the publications and general study apathy as well as rising costs of production have each done their share in creating the present difficulties the seriousness of the situation cannot be too greatly emphasized at times a few undergraduate editors and busi ness managers who have been blinded by ideals of campus service have been aged prematurely in their attempts to produce publications worthy of the uni versity — despite a set of conditions that would have discouraged more sane persons consider the circumstances under which our university publications function first — in most colleges a school of journal ism or a branch of the english department sponsors courses which train collegiate journalists the uni versity of buffalo offers no such facility war is disease says professor dr kurtz publishes me moirs of war days in new book beyond no man's land war is one of the incurable di

experience of being carried buck alive by his captors in the famous meuse-argonne retreat a lone prisoner of war some time riding along with high-rank ing german officers he tells how he saw at first hand the break down of morale how he felt the humanity of mature german sol diers who were too far beyond the rookie stage to want to kill their captives and how he spent long discouraging days in a
