Phi house, and the second at her home on Ferry street. Upperslaesmcn who are willing to take in their turn groups of freshmen to instruct will he admitted to Miss Perkins’ select group.

The faculty will decide at a special meeting in Guild hall at 4 o'clock Wed nesday the question of keeping the three term plan of schedule or returning to the semester sehdule. The term plan, instituted in the Uni versity as a war measure, meets the gen eral approval of approximately two thirds of the faculty members according to Dr. Boynton, chairman of the fac ulty Schedule Committee. Questionnaires were sent out to the members of the faculty to obtain their views on the subject, and as a result of the replies the majority of the com mittee on year schedule approve of the term plan as far as their personal class work is concerned, Dr. Boynton said. Term Plan More Intensive. The majority report holds that the three-term schedule with its moTe inten sive work and minimizing of interruptions at the recesses more than offsets the more frequent registrations. This form of schedule, the majority holds, fits the works in most of the de partments better than the semester plan. It is also felt that this plan hns not as yet had a fair trial. For these reasons the majority recommends that a careful study be made during the rest of the year of this plan as regards the number of students entering at the beginning of the winter term, the number of students leav ing at the end of the winter term, and the attitude of the high schools toward it. Objections to Term Plan. The main objections to the three term plan as stated b,y the minority commit tee is that it interferes with the high school schedule and ns a result the high school students arc likely to enter other colleges where the schedule better suits their convenience. The term plan also makes it very difficult for the University students taking practice teaching work in the high schools. The minority committee also holds that this schedule necessitates the expenditure of a week’s extra time in purely mechanical process of registration and examination. This plan also limits the number of courses given particular ly in the smaller departments. Wallace’s Cigar Store. S04 Willamette.
