TEACHING FORCES OF SMALLE INSTITUTIONS MUST COMPLY WITH RULES HONOR SYSTEM TO BE' PARTIALLY EXTENDEl 12 OR 15 MEN ARE ELIGIBLE MEMBERSHIP AT PRESENT FOR This is positively stated by those close to the government, although the German counter proposals have not been made public here. Simons Keeps Secrecy Dr. Simons, the foreign secretary, did not present the new proposals to the Reichstag today because of an un- derstanding with the American embas- sy and for the additional reason that there is a paragraph in the note to President Harding suggesting that he feel free to query back for further in- formation or the elucidation of any point not clear, if he so desires before submitting the note, to the Entente. Consequently the German press and public, and even the party leaders. have not seen the counter proposals and their publication is eagerly awaited. Pledges Co-operation -The Germans suggest making the annuities in the payments of the rep- aration flexible dependent upon the recovery of German industries. An in- ternational loan is suggested to be floated immediately for the purpose of placing ready cash at the disposal of the Entente but no sum is named. Germany expresses her willingness to pledge the custom revenues as guaranteed, and further offers to de- liver manufactured articles to the Al- lies with the understanding that Ger- many will pay the producers and get credit on the indemnity. Germany also offers immediate participation in the work of restoration of the de- vastated areas, labor and material to be supplied by Germany and credited against the indemnity. Terpsic ore and Jazz Will Reign A1t al Tonight Endorsed by President Marion L. Burton and prominent local pastors, a club to be composed of students who contemplate entering the ministry ef- fected a temporary organization last Saturday night in Lane Hall. The meeting was one of the conferences of Paul Heath, Princeton graduate and student of Auburn Theological semin- ary, who was in Ann Arbor last week end interviewing. students who intend entering the profession. Permanent Organization Later W. L. Nufer, '22, was elected tem- porary president,'and 0. C. Michel- mann, '22, was elected temporary sec- retary of the new club. A committee was also appointed to decide upon a name and formulate a body of prin- ciples. Permanent organization will soon be made. The president of the club will hold a seat in the S. C. A. cabinet, according to Thomas S. Evans, secretary of the association. About 12 or 15 men are at present eligible for membership. It is said that the University has always been backward in producing ministers for the state, and it is hoped that the new club will ,elp to place the University where it belongs in this respect.' The fact that there are some 3,000 ministers in the state compared to the fact that there are some 15 pro- spective ministers in the University at the present time is called signific- ant. Plan Meets with Approval President Marion L. Burton praised the idea, and said, "It is an excellent thing to keep the profession before the men 'and women of the University." Rev. Lloyd C. Douglas, pastor of the First Congregational church, stated that the need of the present is.. for ministers with a broader training and viewpoint, which the University sup- plies. He favors the club, saying that it will be of use in bringing future ministers to the University. Rev. J. M. Wells, of the First Baptist church, expects that the club will present the calling to other students.

In the senate the Knox peace reso- lution revised in minor detail, was re- ported favorably by the foreign Mela- tions committee, and announcement was made by Senator Lodge, of Mas- sachusetts, Republican leader, that it would be called up tomorrow. Two similar resolutions dealing sep- arately with Germany and Austria were introduced in the house by Chair- man Porter of the foreign affairs com- mittee, who announced that they would not be taken up until the senate acts on the Knox measure. Although 'the senate is to begin formal consideration tomorrow of the Knox resolution it was not certain to- night that actual debate would start before Wednesday. Senator Knox, of Pennsylvania, author of the resolu- tion, and other Republican dleaders, contemplated debating the measure tomorrow but Democrats were not ready to begin discussion. MEETING OF ' 2 1 AT 4 TOMORROW Swing-Out Plans, Party, Cap and Gown Rules to be Discussed Five snappy acts and an overture by the Union orchestra is the bill that the Union will offer in the Spring Spotlight at 8 o'clock tonight in Hill auditorium.

Quartette a Favorite The quartette is an old time favor- ite in Ann Arbor and has appeared, in many productions. This will be its; first appearance for some time and it is expected to prove a popular re- vival. One other act was announced pre- viously by the management, "Pitter- Patter", by Gorge Sloan, but ineli- gibility has cut this skit from the pro- gram. R The entire show was rehearsed last evening and indications point to a pro- duction up to the usual Union stand- ard, according to E. Mortimer Shuter,, director of thd vaudeville.'

Advanced Schools Will Be Inspected Evlery Two Years to Insure Proper Equipment Standards of admission from junior colleges in the state to the Univer- sity, together with required standing of the colleges in respect to equip- ment, curriculum, faculty, rules for the transfer of credits, and inspection were determined by the faculty of the literary college at a meeting yester- day afternoon in Natural Science aud- itorium. The faculty; after a thorough dis- cu'ssion, adopted the recommendations of the junior college committee, con- sisting of Prof. C. H. Van Tyne, of the history department, Prof. J. G. Winter, of the Greek and Latin department, and Prof. W. H. Hobby, of the geology department. Colleges Must Comply According to the plan adopted by the University faculty, students in schools offering college courses desig- nated as junior colleges, may earn credits which shall entitle them to enter the University with advanced standing provided the aforesaid junior colleges comply with the regulations formulated by the University. Two types of schools are contemplated in this plan, the junior colleges in city public schools and the small colleges. preferably those which have accepted 'the status of the junior college. Under the new system the teaching force of the junior colleges recogniz- ed by the University must possess the qualifications demanded of its in- structors by the University. The teach- ers must be specialists hr their sub- jects. All instructors will be requir- ed to have had two years' experience as teachers in a high school or col- lege. Teachers will be limited in the amount of teaching which they may do in' junior colleges in order that they may have leisure for study and development. Libraries Must Bfe Approved The libraries and laboratories avail- able for the departments offering jun- ior college instruction must be kept up to a high standard which shall be approved by the University committee of inspection. Graduates of a junior college on, the approved list may, on the presenta- tion of a certificate to that effect, be admitted by the dean .of the literary college to the University.

Registrar Hall on Tour of Inspection Registrar Arthur G. Hall, of the lit- erary college, left last night on a tour of ins'pection of the high schools of Algonac, Richmond, Armada, and Memphis., Student Advisory Committee Gets auto Action In Remedying Lvils Regular functions as a judicial body overseeing student conduct were as- sumed by the Student Advisory com- mittee at a special meeting yesterday afternoon in the Union. A number of matters were discussed upon which no definite action has been taken, ac- cording to James I. McClintock, '21L, chairman, but some steps have been taken to remedy undesirable condi- tions among the student body. The committee is now working on, a co-operative plan to eliminate the bad sportsmanship that was exhibit- ed by a number of Michigan rooters during the past basketball season.1 Communications were addressed to honor societies and several others whose support could be expected, sug- gesting the formation of some plan whereby students themselves in the stands could prevent the recurrence of such. sentiment. Steps were also taken to stop the intoxication and misconduct that have been seen at the Swing-out in past years by communicating with presi- dents of the graduating classes. It is hoped that in this way personal con- tact with the students will prevent the misbehavior that has frequently mar- red the occasion. _ _: _ . .
