Smith, vice president of the Johns-Man ville Company, is to be for men only announced Hal Donnelly yesterday, com plying with a personal request that Mr. Smith made by telephone late last night. The meeting will be in the “Y” hut at IMS and Mr. Smith will deliver his famous address on “The Strong Man.” He addresses the assembly this morning on the “Greatest Problem in America Today” and a special group of men in the “Y” at 5. Mr. Smith will arrive this morning from Seattle where he made a great im pression on both students and faculty. It is said that he is a very tall and powerful man weighing about two hun dred and fifty pounds, with bushy black hair and a knack of driving his points home with his forceful personality. The name of Fred B. Smith is known hy a great many college men all over the Tnited States for he has spoken to col leges and universities almost continually for the last twenty-five years, gaining and holding the distinction of the best liked speaker to students. The follow ing is a quotation from the Iowa State . uueui, tup lowa State L Diversity daily, m '*s story of the Smith meetings there recently, which were attended by twelve iliousaud students: “It is safe to say dtat nothing aside from war-time occa sions ever impressed itself so deeply upon the sentiments of both faculty and student bodies. At the station, while "’siting for his train to speed him back to \ew \ ork. groups of students and fae "ity members stood about tlm big cru sader iu admiration and gratitude. Pres tdent Pearson was in the number and had ^ privilege of the last handshake. introducing the speaker at the morning session, President Pearson made at> exclamation that embodies the sen timents of the people who hear*d the ^“ries °f addresses: ‘Oh, that America had a thousand Fred B. Smiths.’ ” STANDARDS TO BE HIGH Five Now As Good As Honor Toward Graduation. The faculty colloquium met in Dr. Gilbert’s room last night and discussed ways and means of raising the scholastic standard of the University by. limiting the number of hours of low grades that can count toward a degree. Many faculty members feel that it is not fair to honor students and others who maintain a high standard of college work to receive the same benefits that are gained by students who obtain their diploma with bed rock grades. Students have been graduated from I the University in time past, who rarely, if ever, made more than a five grade, yet ! with the same kind of benefits as those made all honor grades. Carlton Spencer, registrar, reports that there are two students in the pres ent senior class who have made almost a straight record of five grades ever since their freshman year. A number of plans have been suggest ed, requiring a student to make so many scholarship points before graduation and requiring that a grade of five not count toward the accumulation of these points is one of these. At present Stanford puts on probation and even expells stu dents who do not come up to certain standards of scholarship. As the colloquium is an unofficial fac ulty “debating society,” no definite of ficial action was taken.
