THE  destinies  of 

with  t he  closing  of  the  winter  term  from 

the  Michigan  State  News,  campus  weekly  newspaper,  passed 
the  hands  of  Clarence  VanLopik. 
G r a nd  Haven  senior,  to  Minard  (Duke."  Farley.  Albion  junior,  as  the  result  of  an 
all-college  annual  election. 

Under  the  editorship  of  VanLopik  the  News  increased  the  size  of  the  publica 

tion  from  four  pages  to  six.  A  vigorous  editorial  policy  marked  his  regime. 

Under  Farley 

the  News  will  operate  on  the  same  depression  basis.  The  new-
editor  h as  been  an  editorial  staff  member  for  three  years,  and  was  an  assistant 
editor  last  year.
