Cambridge, Eng., Jan. 8.-(By A. P.)
-American students at the Universi-
ties here took an active part in the
sports of Michaelmas Term, which has
just ended. T. J. E. Pulling (Prince-
ton and Trinity), and W. B. Todd
(Princeton and Jesus), have been play-
ing steadily in the Varsity Golf Team,
and show every indication of winning
their golfing Blues. J. H. Van Alen
(St. George School and Clrist's), who
won his Blue at tennis last year, and
D. K. Key (Harvard and Caius) reach-
ed the finals of the Hard Court Doubles
Championship where they were de-
feated after a five set match. Other
Americans of the Varsity Hard Court
squad are E. N. Case (Princeton and
Corpus), A. W. Willcox (Cornell and
Peterhouse), and E. A. Weeks (Har-
vard and Trinity).
D. A. D. Simpson (Groton and Tri-
I nity), the boxing Blue, who won the
Light heavy-weight bout against Ox-
ford last spring, is again in form and
recently won his match against the
Army at Aldershot.
Three Americans are playing in the
ice hockey team which will oppose
Oxford at Muren shortly. They, are
J. B. Hilliard (Princeton "and Trinity
Hall), W. C. Miner (Yale and Magda-
lene), and W. B. Todd (Princeton and

EDUCTOROFFERS
ELIMINATIO'NPLAN
Dean at Iowa Would Limit Amount of
Schooling to Deterlhined
Capabilities
METHOD ONE OF PROGRESSIVE
SELECTION FOR ALL GRADES
Considerable discussion has 1saen
caused in this country by br. Carl E.
Seashore, dean of the graduate col-
lege at the University of Iowa, who
suggested recently that college su
su-dents be selected and progressively
eliminated by means of physical, med-
ical, and - mental examinations,
achievement records and character
records. Dean Seashore hopes by
such a plan to raise the standards of
American c'olleges and increase their
service to the students themselves.
To analyze the students a personnel
staff in the college and high school
faculties is suggested. It would be
their purpose to take an inventory of
the students' powers by such means.
Dean Seashore offers this plan, "How
far the student would advance along
the educational system would depend
upon his mental capacity. If it were
evident that his edlucatinn h ild en

CONCERT SINGER AND MODEL
ORCHESTRi ALSO TAKE PART
"It is the fast movements of the fox-
trot that aDDeal to the heart of the
still-savage American people," is the
opinion of Irene Castle who brings
the new dance steps of the year to Hill
Auditorium Thursday night. Mrs.
Castle herself prefers the waltz, and
Duke Yellman's ten musicians who
 accompany the dancer on her tour,
play as only this model dance orches-
tra can to lend grace and beauty to the
dance steps.
The fashions as well as the dances
of 1923 are part of the Castle program
and commenting on this phase, Irene
Castle Treman has said,. "Never has
it seems to me have the styles been
so varied, so brilliant, so Interesting,
so original. I have become reconciled
even to the long skirt-the really long
skirt that actually sweeps the
ground."
Irene wears her hair bobbed in spite
l of current rumors afloat that the style
is passing into the limbo of discarded
fads and fancies. But since she could
not imagine a bobbed head above the
long drapes of the new styles, Irene
Castle has found out how to disguise
the hair so that no one need ever
know that shears and clippers had
ever touched it.
A concert singer is another of the
attractions of the Castle company. It
comes here this week under the aus-
pices of senior women, and the pro-
ceedsabove expenses are to be con-
tributed to the Michigan League build-
ing fund.
Tickets are on sale at Graham's.
Contrary to earlier information, there
will be no reserved seats, but sections
only will be reserved.

More than 600 delegates, including
men wellknown in the-highway trans-
port field. in seven states, will come
to Ann Arbor from Feb. 12 to 15, for
the ninth annual Michigan Conference
on Highway Engineering to be held
here at that time under the auspices
of the college of Engineering and
Architecture, the Michigan State High-
way department, and the Michigan
Association of Road Commissioners
and Engineers.
Among the men who will address
the conference either at the general
sessions, the smoker, or the d n er,

Planes with small power motors-from two to seven horsepower-will be entered along with the soaring
planes. Aeronautical experts who are interested in the development of the glider and the small-power plane
see in them the popularization of flying from the standpoint of the public.
