Feuding Will
Help No One
The unofficial war being waged between Dean of
Men Leslie L. Martin and the downtown newspapers ca result iu nothing hut a host of ill will on
both sides, as well as casting the dean in a slightly
ludicrous light, due to the Unfounded nature of his
charges against the papers.
Martin touched off the controversy slightly over
a week ago when, addressing an Exchange Club
hmcTuon, he was quoted as criticizing the local
papers .for overemphasizing" unfavorable publicity
about a few University students, while overlooking
the many good deeds of the students.
Both the local papers took exception to the dean's
remarks in their editorical columns and understandably so.
To their comments, we would add that we think
for the dean of men to instigate such an attack
without any apparent provocation for him to create the appearance of deliberately picking a fi'iht
With the downtown papers is definitely out of keeping with the character of the office he holds.
Furthermore, we don't believe Martin's allegations are correct. If there is any "overplaying'' of
items concerning students, it would seem to us to
be in the opposite direction that many times one
of the locals has had to stretch a point, journalistically speaking, in order to include some minor
achievement of a student within its columns.
But even if the dean's remarks were true, a little
discretion would have seemed in order. If Martin
thinks the downtown papers are overplaying student wrongdoings, the thing to do is so inform the
editors and attempt to wrorkout nn amiable solution. The thing not to do fs"fambast these papers
thoughtlessly, knowing full well his remarks will
find their way in print, resulting in nothing but
"publicity of the worst type for both him and the
