LOST, STOLEN: Pr'Uedict Large Bike Loss For '' ealrs olc ---- ( By RICHARD CONDON This year the Ann Arbor Police Department will be faced with 900 to 1,000 bicycles which will be either stolen or lost in the city of Ann Arbor. The preceding statement is of course a mere speculation, but Sergeant H. Remnant, the officer whose task it is to restore these vehicles to their rightful owners, makes this prediction which is based on the figures he has com- piled over the past few years. Thieves Are Students Unfortunately, the great major- ity of stolen bicycles will be owned by University students and many of the thieves will likewise be en- rolled at Michigan. Sergeant Rem- nant reports that each year well over 50 per cent of the bikes are voluntarily or ,ninvoluntarily re- turned to those that own them, but the number is tremendously high in view of the fact that only an average of 1200 bicycle licenses are issued by the Ann Arbor Police Department each year. Many of the bikes which will be reported stolen have, strangely enough, not been stolen at all but only borrowed as a means of necessary and convenient convey- ance. When this is the case usually the machine is promptly returned after its user ends his two-way journey. Nevertheless, if the owner wishes to file a complaint the guilty party is held responsible in the eyes of the law and is prose- cuted for petty larceny, "which usually ends with a severe fine. Borrowed Bike Six Times Last year one student was re- poited to have had his bike bor- ro%ed six times in1 a single week. Whether or not the people involved are guilty of robbery he is still booked as a criminal offender. Bicycles which the police de- partment finds abandoned by either owner or robber are taken to the City Hall and the owner is notified if possible. If this cannot be done they are kept there and sold at a public auction which is held twice each year for this pur- p ose. Each week the police files record numerous complaints of stolen bikes. Since every bike is required by law to carry a license sticker, the bikes are often found, and returned.' Frequently bikes whichl are reported stolen are found or returned and the owner never notifies the police. His complaint is still registered, however, and this leads to complications. Con- sequently the Police must make a thorough examination of their files each year. Thus far the semester is off to a resounding start; there are seventy bicycles stored behind City Hall awaiting auction. By MARY STATON PRINCETON - Schools and colleges will be given complete discretion in reporting of scores received on the Scholastic Apti- tude Tests and Achievement Tests beginning with tests admin- istered in December, 1958, be- cause of a recent change in the College Board policy which gov- erns reporting of scores. Previously, senior scores were kept, confidential by the schools and colleges which received them, although some junior year candi- date scores were announced.. In making this decision, school and college members of the board also announced the appointment of a sub-committee to assist schools in score interpretation and clerical processes. Recently the board held discussions and committee actions considering both the difficulty of dispelling an atmosphere of secrecy sur- rounding test scores and also the difficulty of explaining indivdiual score meanings. Commenting on the policy change before it was presented to members of the board for action, the President of the College En- trance Examination Board, Frank H. Bowles, suggested relationship between the growth in the num- ber of Board colleges and candi- dates, the national concern over the development of collegeen- trance and the method of score reporting. "Because of the extent of this concern," he said, "the extension to the secondary schools of the same privilege of discussing scores with their twelfth grade students that they now enjoy with their eleventh grade students is both sensible and timely." SPressures under which schools must now work in advising their students and helping them to find placement in colleges are recog- nized under' the proposal, Bowles said. The decision is timely he added, because colleges cannot al- low themselves to appear to hide admission operations behind a veil of secrecy. "This action recommended will, I believe, eliminate an anomalous situation and at the same time go far to bring large numbers of secondary schools into a closer counseling relationship with col- leges." * * * COLUMBIA - Plans for a pro- gram to encourage the superior student have been announced by [Organization I Notices (Use of this column for announce- ments is available to officially recog- nized and registered organizations only.

Dean Lawrence H. Chamberlain of Columbia College. Columbia College is now grant- ing up to six points of academic credit toward the A.B. degree. These credits awarded under an advanced placementdtest dscore. "There is nothing sacred about, the four years that have been tra- ditionally required for the A.B. in the American college," says Chamberlain. Under the new plan, entering freshmen complet- ing college level work in high school may begin their collegiate study of such subjects at a more advanced level than the custom- ary basic college course. In each case, the applicant's work is care- fully examined to be certain that it qualifies him f or advanced work, Chamberlain added. "For the average student, the four-year term will probably con- tinue to make sense," however, "for the student of superior capa- city and drive, standard patterns, whether of ground to be covered or of time limitations, can only retard when emphasis should be upon stimulation." * * WELLESLEY - Wellesley Col- lege, along with Barnard, Byrn Mawr, Mount Holyoke, Radcliffe, Smith and Vassar, has agreed on changes in consideration of ap- plications because of the increas- ing numbers of young people seeking higher education. Applications of well qualified students will be considered in the, fall of the senior year in high- school. Presently, such applica- tions are judged in the spring before the graduation date. Only one, application may be field under this 'early decision" plan. This plan is designed to re- duce anxiety and tension that may exist during a student's senior year as she waits for col lege acceptance. The plan also aims to reduce the work burden for school offices and boards of admission, whose decisions are complicated by registrations from candidates applying to several colleges. Probably about 25 per cent or less of the class would be accept- ed in the fall of the year, the" di- rector of admissions states. WAYNE STATE - Plans to stop the practice of allowing per- sons not fully qualified for ad- mission to Wayne State Univer- sity to enroll in regular classes have been approved by the Board of Governors, the U n i v e r s it y Council and the Council of Deans. It has been the practice of-the University in the past that adults over 20 years of age were, per- mitted to register as non-matri-'. culating s t u d e n ts in various classes. Wayne President Clarence B. Hilberry said that because of crowded conditions, fully quali tied students wishing to enroll might be turned away if the former practice continued. "It is unsound academically to turn away students who are seeking degree work while accommodat- ing unqualified people in our credit program." IOWA STATE COLLEGE - A merger of the Department of Philosophy and the Department of History and Government at Iowa State College into one de- partment has been made because I Prof. Roy E. LeMoine, former head of the Department of Phil- osophy, didn't feel that the phil- osophy department was large enough to constitute its own de- partment. No degree is offered in the philosophy field at Iowa State. N V1 All. Sophs Welcome! .... co CERTS HILL AUDITORIUM CHORAL UNION SERIES COED ROBERTA PETERS, Soprano.....
