SHRUBBERY WILL BEAUTIFYCAMPUS, About 700 of the 2600 shrubs to be used in the beautification of the cam- pus arrived last week.nA number of them were immediately placed in the beds. The other plants are expected to reach Ann Arbor some time next week, and will be planted upon arrival. The majority of the beds have been placed at the intersections of the walks, and the work of filling them with new soil has been completed. The shrubs will be arranged to pro- vide shady spots, and also to allow vistas through the campus. Many off the plants are of the common flower- ing varities, and some have been se- cured which will blossom during the May Festival time. All of the beds between memorial hall and university hall will be finish- ed this spring. During the summer the work of beautification will be con- tinued, and the remaining beds be-, tween university hall and. the law building will be dug. The shrubs will be planted in them in the fall. It is expected that four years will be re- quired to mature the system. Offers Positions to Senior Chemists. Mr. Benjamin L. Murray, head chem- ist for Merck and Company, of New York City, who was in Ann Arbor last week, offered permanent positions to several of the seniors of the chemistry department, for next year.

Don't Stand in your Own Light OUR AIM IS to give you Quality and Save you Money on -Mr. Roy W.

H. Braun, chair- man of the senior engineers' class day REQUIREMENTS TO INCLUDE CLASSICS Greater stress is laid on classical subjects as entrance requirements tos the engineering department, in the new catalogue which will be isued, this year. No official change has beenl made in the requirements but it is clearly stated that two years of Greek will be accepted as well as the number of year's work in a modern language. According to Assistant Dean W. H. Butts of the engineering department, Greek has always been accepted as a unit but the fact has never been em- phasized in the catalogue. Three years of Greek will now be accepted and also four years of Latin. This policy, which is one that Deans Cooley and Butts have always favored is in accordance with the general sweep of the introduction of classical studies into the preparatory and col- lege curriculums of the engineers.

Although the senior lit memorial committee had practically decided to submit plans for a campus bulletin board, for a memorial, to the class for approval, it is probable that the plan will have to be abandoned. Campus authorities are opposed to such a board on the ground that it is impos- sible to design one that would be use- ful and artistic at the same time, for a moderate sum. The committee is now considering leaving $300 either as a fund for beautifying the campus or as a loan fund for deserving students. The mat- ter will probably be decided at the next class meeting.
