Meier conftantlf asked by one

the past week it appeared that,
the board, characteristically, had

their resignations are in, or en

may also quit the show and carry

of resignation if Dr. Kerr was
named chancellor of higher edu

Nov it is quite probable that
Governor Meier will take his time,
lelrct two or more successors, as
the needs may determine, to the
resigning board members, and let
liigher education go on with Its
ahow. Or he may think a general
kouse-cleaning in order and put
gome new appointees In, in addi
tion to the replacements, on the
hither education board. Burch
and Sammons were well-liked by
the administration and consider
ed fully as able as any of the
ether members. Or he may leave

In any event, Dr. Kerr is chan

WASHINGTON, Sept 10

they will cease to be naval offi

forth today, effective for next
year's graduating class. Marriage
within the prohibited time, said
the orders "shall be considered
as equivalent to a resignation."
Explaining the order, it was
said at the navy department that
"any outside diversion" for the
new graduate "will be a decided
handicap In detracting his time
and attention from his life sboard
ship."
"The decision to prevent young
officers from taking on addi
tional responsibility during this
critical period, it was added,
"was arrived at only after ma
ture consideration and for what
is believed to be both for the
best interest of the individual and
the government"
A change was directed in the
course of study for the naval
academy students, calling for
more attention to cultural courses
and less to technical subjects.
Hereafter the students will de
vote more time to history, liter
