The tests were administered in the roll rooms during a special fifth period called for this specific purpose. Although the sophomores and the Juniors took the tests also, It was understood that these exams applied mostly to the seniors who will gradu ate either In June, 1937. or January 1037. The questions covered such subjects ss mathematics, social sci ence and English, and any senior, found to be basically unsound in these subjects will be required to do remedial work until he or she Is up with the ususl standards. The office will announce senior re sults soon and remedial classes will start immediately afterward.

BERKELaTY, Cal. (UP) From a jountry of huge estates, sometimes running into a million acres and in vesting the owner with feudal powers, Mexico Is rapidly becoming a country of snAll farm owners, according to Dr. Herbert I. Priestly, professor of Mexican history at the University of California. Dr. Priestly has returned from a detailed study In Mexico of the de velopment of the land and farming movement there. "The subdivision of large estates started under Presidents Carranza and Obregon," Priestly says, "but languished under the rule of subse quent presidents until Cardenas took the helm. Since then, subdivision, with corresponding grant of small farms to common farmers, has been extended Into states which were not touched by his predecessors and re newed in others, such as Collna. Nor Is the government making any attempt to pay for the land, hav ing dropped the sham of giving in demnity in bonds. The common people are so taken with the ldei of owning their own land that at the president's suggestion they have or ganized agrarian militia in many pi&oes to prevent the landed gentry from making any attempt to turn the tables." The result, according to Dr. Priest ly, has been an Increasing enmity on the part of the wealthy conserva tives. This, he points out, puts Presi dent Cardenas In a difficult position, for despite bis popularity with far mers and laborers, he Is dependent on the support of the army, some of whose most influential generals are large land owners. , "However," says Dr. Priestly, "the army, better educated and more hon est than ever before, and possessed of a new professional spirit which marks a distinct break with the past. will remain loyal. Thus, by barring any widespread discontent, the Car- Likely Governor a v Gen.
