Prafessors Differ On Finals Ruling Be kley, C1lif., arch 26.-Finpal ex- aminatipns as they are now given are a waste of time in the opinion of Prof. E. C. Voorkies of the ggricul- ture department. "I think that if the so-called finals "were given in a lec- ture hour on the salient points of a course, and the classes were continued during the usual examination period the students would get more out of the courses," he said. "They would not consider the abolition of finals as a joke and would do more con- sistent work throughout the term." Berkley, Calif., March 26.--The size of the University demands that we have final examinations," said Prof. F. C. Palm, of the history department of the University of California. Pro- fessor Palm explained that in a uni- versity of this sie where there are so many students enrolled in a lecture course it is not possible for the proper number of discussions and tests.
