Cohn Wins Over Bliss; Moves to Handball Finals gorsby, Gabriel Combine Too Strong for Cohn, Long, Saturday goat Waiting for Those in Losers’ Side to Get on Like the man who just missed petting married because the lady said n0, -Tack Bliss, Babe Ruth’s rival cm the Oregon baseball team ]ast year, just missed getting into the finals of donut handball because Mel Cohn beat him Tuesday. Jack started out like a million, taking the first set 22-20 but sud denly flopped to let the black-haired tennis star take the next two 21-3, 21-8. ‘Norm’ in Bed This brings the singles tournament down to two men, Mel Cohn and Norman Parker, 1920 champ. Park er is on the sick list now and the match will probably be held over until next week. Cohn was off form Saturday morning when he and Wilford Long bowed in defeat to Bill Sorsbv and Alton Gabriel, in doubles 21-12, 21-15. Sorsby had his left hand working overtime and with Gabriel’s con sistent smashes to the floor-boards, Cohn, Long & Company were easy victims. The doubles title rests between winner of the Leslie, Bliss—Huestis, Parker set-to against Sorsby and Gabriel. Scramble Due But before the victorious pair of that scramble can be crowned of: ficial champion they must defeat the winner of the losers’ bracket. This lies dormant now while do nut authorities howl for more ac jtion. The following .matches must i be run off this week: Bahl-Mautz vs Giles-Akers and winners versus Taylor and 'Dallas; Howard and Knutson are to play Harper and Deifell and Denson and Neer have fccott and Oberteuffer to cope with. Bice and McAllister will play Bauman and Stott and the winners have a dispute with Widnier and Reinhart to settle. Colloquium (Continued from page one) work at the end of the sophomore year affords an opportunity to dis courage even to the point of with drawal certain students whose rec ord during the first two years has given no convincing proof of ability to profit by University instruction. Believing that any drastic scheme of rejection would not at present meet with approval either of the student body or the state at large, the committee’s proposal takes form of denying upper division privileges (and the receipt1 of a bachelor’s de gree) to any student who has not ' made approximately three-fourths of his hours with a grade above V or who has for two terms or more failed to make nine hours a term. The committee >propbses to give even such a student, however, a chance to redeem himself by making a record of 3.5 with a normal load for two terms, thereby qualifying himself to proceed toward a degree. II. Organization of Honors Work To provide for the organization of honors work on a more definite basis the committee proposes to | create a permanent Council on Hon | ors Students, consisting of nine I members to be appointed for a term r -imr w*' “LAUGH— you grinning dogs! ” And a hideous, quavering travesty of a laugh rang out.

The legislation also provides for an honors faculty consisting of all instructors giving work in conformity with the policy of the honors council. This body will from time to time be called into conference and will assist in formulating policies affecting hon ors courses or the privileges extend j ed to honors students. The existing honors system is not scrapped but ] assimilated into the organization so far as it is consistent with the policies of the newly created council. III. Administration of Honors Work i In the sections dealing with ad j ministration the committee has not | attempted to define rigidly the pow i ers and duties of the honors eoun i cil or prescribe in advance rules | and regulations governing the con ; fluct of honors work. It has at tempted to define broadly and set up | safeguards against the abuse of the | honors privileges either by students j or instructors. The council is given | power to prescribe criteria for the ] selection of honor students, to use I — _ all legitimate means in fostering a ! spirit of independent study in the | direction of doing more work in the j students’ own way, to encourage the establishment of comprehensive ex aminations given under the auspices of schools and related departments, such as the natural science groups or social science groups, and intend ed to test the mastery of a field of knowledge as broad as an honor student is expected to cover. On recommendation of department head and the honors council certain up per division requirements may be waived in case they interfere with the pursuit of a specialized field of study which seems worthy of en couragement by the department, and I the honors council. Tt should be noted that none of the lower divi | sion requirements are to be waived j and that honors students are to he ; held for the 186 hours necessary for graduation. The committee believes that the faculty will be willing to grant a large measure of freedom to the honors council in promoting a new system of instruction applicable to a group of students carefully select ed on the basis of high school rec DANCE Saturday Night At THURSTON -with—— The little bunch of “Musical Hicks” that draw the largest crowds.

In making such se lections the honors council will be expected to utilize all the records of the registrar’s office and the data compiled by the personnel com mittee. The supervision and ex tension of honors privileges will be at all times in harmony with a pro gram in which the faculty has man j tested a continuing interest and | to which, the report assumes, they will be willing to give their sanction.
