The exact nature of the proposed convocation has not been de- cided upon as yet. It is thought, how- ever, that the names of those elected to Phi Beta Kappa, Sigma Xi, and other honorary scholastic societies, will be read. The University has never held such a convocation, although the matter has been considered twice in previous years. It is understood that several other Universities throughout the country have similar means of honor- ing scholastic excellence. Deans to Handle It was also decided in the meeting that hereafter the administration of scholarships should be in the hands of the deans of the several depart- meats. It is planned, in tie future, to state more clearly in the University catalogue the qualifications necessary to application for them, and the rules governing their administration. A petition from Prof. W. H. Hobbs, of the Geology department, and nine other faculty members, requesting a special meeting of the Senate to con- sider recent disciplinary cases, re- sulted in the advancement of the next. meting of that body from Nov. 19 to Nov. 8. The definite meaning of the word "student" when used in matters con- cerning enumeration or enrollment was also. determined. Thereafter, the word will be used to designate only those who have completed, or who have definite intentions of completng, some regular period of study (semes- ter, year, or session). Hitherto, per- sons enrolled in extension courses and other irregular courses of study have been included in the complete e..- rollment.

The Board in Control of Ath- letics has given permission for the fair to be held in the Yost field house and the plan has already been ap- proved individually by many members of the faculty. The Board of Gov- ernors of thIe Uinion will meet tonight to further consider the proposition.. The Board of Directors will come to- gether Saturday morning. According to present plans, the fair will be held shortly after Christmas vacation if the amount needed to con- plete the pool has not been raised by that timp. Fraternities and campus groups' will cooperate in running side shows and entertainments. A report was made to the council on the bucket collection made at Ferry field last Saturday to send the band to the Iowa and Wisconsin games. The committee reported that although many generous contributions were received the necessary amount needed to insure both trips was not reached. The original plan of the council was to pass buckets in the stands between halves but it was amended by the Board in Control of Athletics with the belief that such a means of col- lection would inconvenience the spec- tators, while seated in the stands. The men who were stationed with buckets at all of the gates both inside and out said that practically everyone who pasted gave something either coming in or leaving the field. It is the belief of the committee, however, that many people were missed due to the jam at these times at the gates and that had the .original plan been allowed the sum would have been raised. A report was heard from the cheer- leader committee.
