Plans looking to the fur ther Improvement : of scholastic standards at the University of Ore gon have been approved by the faculty. ' Hereafter, a freshman must pass in 5 hours of scholastic work each term instead of 3 .hours to remain in the university. Sopho mores, juniors and seniors must pass in 7 hours each term instead of 3 hours. Members of all classes are required to obtain a minimum of 17 hours credit in two consecu tive terms to remain In the insti tution. :, ' ' ; - . j Intelligence tests will be given to all freshmen entering the uni versity beginning next fall. The results of the tests are to be avail able for the use of the instruction al staff and administrative offi cers. Low grades in the Intelli gence tests will not prevent a freshman from entering the uni versity. In other words, the tests are not for admission purposes. The faculty has approved the principle 'of sectioning large class es on the basis of ; Intelligence tests supplemented by perform ance tests if desirable, with a view to adapting the methods of in struction more nearly to the capa cities of the 'students.

GENERAL STAFF REFUTE CHARGE (Continued from pK 1) wfiateyer for Gjedsted's public charges of petty irregularities both investigation reports com mfent upon the disclosure that the y4ry vouchers which Gjedsted now trie's ! to question , were prepared ad, sworn to by Gjedsted himself, HIs affidavit to Governor Pierce thjajl tie vouchlers were incorrect. wh.en examined by the investigat ors i in the office of Secretary of State Kozer, showed that each one of them bore Gjedsted's official cejriificatei j over his own signa ture, in jhls capacity as auditor and voucher clerk. When asked by. Lt. Colonel E. C Libby, of the general staff, to etplain this conflict in his own aftdaiU, Gjedsted blankly re fused to answer. He made the ssme jreply to the accountants & -i I mm Oregon Pulp and Paper Co. Mai ! : S !

No Hat Rooks' Gjedsted made a written request that the "date books' of the mili tary department be surrendered, but investigation showed no such records as ever having existed in the office. ' "It is presumed," says the Tour tellotte report, upon this matter, "that Major Gjedsted , has refer ence to his personal "date books," although no such books appear to have been left by him In the office when he was discharged. There Is no such official record as "date books" nor would such books as he appears to refer to have any official bearing. The records of the office for the past 10 years show no "date books' either as being official or unofficial records of the adjutant general's depart ment." Report of General Staff The report of the general staff, signed by Lt. Colonel Eugene Mosherberger of; Woodburn, Lt. Colonel Eugene C. Libby of Port land, Major Joel C. Booth of Le banon, Major Fred M. West of Portland and Captain J. E. Shear er of Tillamook Is as follows: "The General Staff, has this date made a complete and detailed investigation of a sworn statement made, by, one Major Gjedsted. C, A. C, to, the effect that there are irregularities in the Military Department. This investigation was made in the absence of the Adjutant General who turned over all records for this purpose before leaving the office in the hands of the General Staff. In making this investigation we have personally verified all matters covered in said Gjedsted's sworn statement, and have, the advice and council of the firm of Arch D. Tourtel lotte, certified public accountant, named by the governor to make an audit of accounts and an in vestigation of allegations of said Gjedsted. j -GjedstNl Sijfned Vouchers ; ?Ve find thai the vouchers now challenged by Major Gjedsted in a sworn statement were pre sented to the General Staff for payment by said Major Gjedsted personally and that each said voucher bears his personal certifi cate as an officer and they are accurate and just. "We find that not only did Major Gjedsted certify said vouch ers to the General Staff for pay ment but that in attending the -nee'ings of the General Staff as auditor and voucher clerk, it was da duty to bring any inaccuracies o the attention of the General Staff, which he has not done at ny time. i "We find that Major Gjedsted's tffidavit of February 4, 1923, to he Governor is in direct conflict with his sworn certificates ' and that this irregularity and conflict of sworn statements on the' part of Major Gjedsted himself is Irre concilable. j- Recommend Trial ; "We further find that there ia no evidence of regularity or cailessness of any kind or char acter on the part of the Adjutant General, and that c:-- the other hand all records and -facts sustain the unimpeachable integrity and honesty of the Adjutant General.. "It is our belief from an in quiry into all he facts that Major Gjedsted's affidavit is inspired by a spirit of revenge for his dis charge from the office; that said affidavit and the efforts of Major Gjedsted to secure publicity for same show- him to be undepend able; that he has by his conduct outraged : all the principles of soldierly conduct, trustworthiness and other, manly qualities. "We recommend that Major Gjedsted be 'tried for these offense."- ' Nothing Short .of - Outrage Regret was expressed by the General Staff that two days of their time was taken up In inves tigating irresponsible charges of an ex-employe. "It is nothing short of an out rage that the statements of such a person in search of revenge can bring in tbe question the integrity ot honorable men who are trying to carry out a public obligation." fcaid Captain J. E. Shearer, record er of the General Staff. General White offered no com ment further than to say, "the re- cords ana arrairs oi itj h' ment speak for themselves... He added that be was not present during the checking over of the office by the taff accountants, as he did not wish in any way to embarass the fullest possible investigation.
