The present constitution pro vides that classmen must be hold ers of junior certificates. This plan is unsatisfactory in that “so darn few third-year men have them,” according to Lou Torge son, class president. An attempt will be made to make six terms of college work requisite for junior class member ship in place of the junior certi ficate ruling. Juniors will also vote on the “ten-cent class card,” whidh was adopted by members of the class of ’43 Friday.
