Committee OK’s $910,000 Grant To State Board Passage of Bill in House, Senate Would Provide Solution for Pressing Financial Problems i Restoration of salaries and wages, making up of the millage deficit, and financial ability to care for the increase in enrollment were a step closer last night, as report reached the campus that the ways and means committee of the legis lature had approved a bill giving the State Board of Higher Educa tion $910,000. The original request was for $973,000. Approval in the com mittee turns tiie bill over to the house and senate where it must be passed before the money is defi nitely assured. Although President C. Valentine Boyer was not in town last night for a statement, he said earlier in the week that if the bill was passed by both houses, it would en able the State Board of Higher Education to pay the millage defi cit that has been such a financial burden to the officials, since the millage returns were cut. “The largest percent of this money will go for the millage ques tion,” he states. “Because a stu dent, when he pays his entrance fees, does not pay for his entire education, we will use another larger share of it to make up for Kwamas Defer Selections of New Members Kwama, sophomore women’s honorary, will choose new mem bers late in May, a week before Mortar Board ball, instead of in' early April, as has been the custom I before. The organization decided to change its pledging rules at a meeting held Thursday, Febm-1 ary IS. Nineteen outstanding freshmen1 will be pledged to Kwama at that time. Selections will be announced as usual at the ball. Plans were also made for two lunches -for freshmen women. The first of these will be held Tuesday, February 23, when six freshmen from every women’s living group will exchange with six freshmen from another" group. A joint dinner with Skull and Dagger, sophomore men’s honor ary, will be held Wednesday night at the Anchorage. Return receipts upon a recent caramel apple sale totaled $5.50. This money will be used for char ity work on the campus. the increased enrollment.” Restoration in salaries, as far as will be possible with the bal ance of the appropriated money, will be taken care of, President Boyer asserted.
