Conference
Influ-
Representatives of 35 general fra-
ternities last night approved a new set
of regulations which will tighten
scholarship requirements regarding
initiation and social activities. The
new rules were adopted from among
a number of proposals submitted
more than two weeks ago when pres-
idents of nine fraternities, conferred
with Joseph A. Bursley, dean of stu-
dents
The proposed rules, which follow,
will be submitted to the inter-fratern-
ity conference on October 18 for final
consideration.
No student shall be initiated into a
fraternity unless during the preced-
ing semester in this University he has
fulfilled one of the following require-
ments :,
(1) If he carried fourteen (14)
hours or more he must have
passed at least eleven (11)
hours with a C grade, or thir-
teen (13) hours with an average
C giade; or
(2) If he carried less than fourteen
(14) hours he must have passed
with a grade of at least B in one
course and not less than C in
the balance.
Must Have Certificates.
No student shall be initiated into a
fraternity without a certificate of el-
igibilty to be issued by the recording
officers of the school or college in
which he is enrolled. (Registrar for
students in the College of Literature,
the secretary in, the other schools and
colleges.)
Any fraternity whose average grade
as shown on the annual scholarship
chart is below C (70 perpent), but was
above C on the preceding chart, will
be automatically placed' on the warn-
ed list. At the end of the first semes-
ter the grades of these fraternities
will be computed again and those
whose average has been raised to C
or better will be removed from the
warned list. The others will be con-
tinued on warning.
When the scholarship chart for the
following year is published all fra-
ternities on the warned list whose4
grade is still below C will automat-1
ically be placed on probation. At the
end of the first semester the grade
of these fraternities will be computed
again and ,those whose average has
been raised to C or above will be re-
moved from probation. The others
will be continued on probation.
A fraternity on the warned list
shall initiate only students who dur-
ing the preceding semester have
passed at least fourteen hours with an
average grade of C or better and with
no grade of E.
May Remove Privilege
A fraternity on probation will have,
all of its social privileges withdrawn
and shall not initiate new members.
It may continue to pledge, however.
In making up the scholarship chart
the grade for each fraternity shall be
based on the records of all members
of the fraternity who live in the house
and all other undergraduate members
of the chapter.
No student who has been dismissed
Washington, Oct. 5-(By A.P.)-
President Coolidge is opposed to the
cancellation by the United States of
the debts incurred by any of the Eur-
opean powers during the recent war
it was declared today at the White
House.
The President feels that the United
States should not unduly oppress any
of its debtors, and should be as lib-
eral as possible in any settlements
which it decides to make. This stand
is taken because it is felt that at the
present time, with the unusual con-
ditions prevalent throughout Europe
every means should be taken to make
payment as easy as possible for the
debtors. It was emphasized, howev-
er, that the President's attitude in nc
way favored any cancellation.
An instance of the desire to be lib-
eral is contained in the President'
opinion regarding the settlement
reached with Great Britain, which
from a problematical viewpoint, wa

J. KONUFECK, '27E,
HURT IN EXPLOSION
While working in a chemistry lab-
oratory yesterday afternoon, J. P.
Konupeck, '27E, was injured by an
explosion which he caused when he
accidentally made a "young mixture
of gun powder." Although his arm
was cut and he bled freely, his condi-
tion is described as "not serious," but
because of his weak condition he was
still under care at the Health service
a releasing of Great Britain from a
certain portion of her obligation.
All questions with regard to the
settlement of international debt ques-
tions are in the hands of the funding
commission, a body created by the act
of Congress, and the position of Pres-
ident Coolidge is that the United
States may rightfully make settle-
ment only within the terms of that
act.
