This is the first year that any novement towards a University Golf Club team has been taken, and hough the results are coming slow, i tournament will probably be held n the near future. Coach Hugo Bezdek is an ardent ollower of the game, as are several nembers of the university faculty. Phere are also a number of students n the university who play in a very creditable manner. Coach Bezdek has been working m the proposition for some time, en leavoring to stir up enough interest imong the students for the forma cion of a club, with the idea in mind' if later picking a team to represent the Varsity. Washington and the California schools have teams, and it is believed that if a team is organ ized here it will be possible to ar range several games with other col leges. There are two silver loving cups offered, one for the man and one .'or the women. Those desiring to enter this tournament will hand their names to Registrar Tiffany along with their lowest scores and their averages. The tournament will be a handicap, so that all will have an equal chance to take the prizes.

FACULTY DELVES INTO COURSES 3ROUP SYSTEM BACKERS IN VESTIGATE WISDOM OF STUDENT CHOICE GILBERT FAVORS ELECTIVES Engineering Courses Approxi mate Group System Now Un der Consideration, Says Pres ident P. L. Campbell. Dr. Boynton, chairman of the fac ulty committee appointed by Presi dent Campbell to study the elective system and to propose a change if one is found necessary, said, “Just at present we are making an exam ination cf the electives taken by the students to determine whether or not their choices are, in our judgment, judicious. But, as yet, we have noth ing definite to offer for publication.” The group system, as it may be called, requires, besides a specified number of hours’ major work, other subjects which bear a direct relation to the major. A certain number of hours elective are allowed, but, ac cording to Dr. Gilbert, the main ar gument in favor of the group sys tem is the fact that a correlation ex ists among the required subjects, thereby making the course more broadening. "In our present sys tem,” he says, “There is but one re quirement to satisfy; the number hours major prescribed in the course of study.” Dr. Gilbert re ceived his Doctor’s degree from Col umbia, a university that employs the group system. When interviewed this morning, President Campbell said, “The pres ent course in engineering approxi mates closely to the system under consideration, although a proposed change would- not be as stringent in other departments as it is now in engineering. For nearly all the work for the first three years in this department is prescribed. Peter Pan lost the Register cup to 'the Y. M. C. A. last night.
