The alma mater of Rowland, -the physicist;- RAemsen, the chemist; Osler, the phy- sician; Sylvester, the mathematician; MOrris, the classicist; Martin, the biologist; and Gildersleeve, the Gre- cian, will abolish the purely under- graduate first two years of its present curriculum and devote itself to re-t search and preparation for research.o When the vision of Pres. Frank J. Goodnow and its board of trusteest has been realized, Johns Hopkins will t grant doc'tor of philosophy and mas-3 ter degrees only outside of its medi- cal and engineering schools. No date has been set for the change. It is! estimated that an additional endow-a ment of at least $6,000,000 will be re-s quired to put the plan into full effect a and to make available higher salaries "to enable the university to add to the faculty men of outstanding abil- ity.,, Fifty years ago, when the univer- sity's first president, Daniel Coit Gil- man, was inaugurated, the trustees .determined to devote the resources oft Johns Hopkins to graduate education i and research-at that time regarded ° as a new and important venture ina American education. "The results have exceeded the most optimistic hopes of fifty years ago," today's statement says, "a recent compilation of the leading men of science in thes United States showing that 245 of. them were trained at Johns Hop- kins" Research having enlarged the boundaries of knowledge, including in collegiate as well as graduate much that was unknown 50 years ago,c the statement continues, "curricula have been expanded and Johns Hop- I kins among other universities has ex-J tended its activities to include fields not associated with research and f preparation for it with the followingt results: "Graduate schools which shouldI emphasize freedom of teaching, per-I sonal contact between teacher and student and stimulation of indepen-c dent thought have been invaded by methods more appropriate to col- legiate instruction.< "The student preparing for re- search work is required to spend too many years in general study before he begins to concentrate upon pro- ductive work. "The increased number of students has required a more elaborate system of administrative organization, with the result that the professors and in- structors find too little time available for their proper fdntion, research and stimulation of research."

March 26, the committee in charge has begun active preparation for the chief social event of the law students.

These application blanks will be available some time this week, and Negotiations with several prominent orchestras from Detroit, Toledo, Chi- cago, and Columbus, for the dance music are now being carried on, and final selection will insure the best music possible for the dance.

C. Ivy of the Northwestern uni- versity, an acknowledged authority onr the mechanism of digestion, discuss1 the causes of "pan creatic" secretion, describing their practical advantagesc and the mechanisms concerned. He was followed by Dr. William C. Mc- Carty, of the Mayo clinic, Rochester,' Minn., who talked on pathological and clinical investigations into the significance of the gastric ulcer. The third speaker, Dr. George W. Crile, ofi Cleveland, considered the liver from t the standpoint of the investigator, physician and surgeon. The evening session was addressed by Prof. James M. Anders, of Phila- delphia, and Prof. Knud Faber, of Copenhagen, after which a receptionk was given in honor of Dr. Charles G.f Jennings, president of the Congress. . The physicians are expressing a great deal of interest in the sessiont to be held Thursday in Ann Arbor.

All members of the medical profession resident in or about Detroit, whether3 or not they are fellows of the Con- gress, are invited to take this trip and all indications point to a large attendance. Country Honors Washington With Public Activities (By Asociated Press) WASHINGTON, Feb. 22.-The capi- tal joined with the remainder of the country today to honor the memory of George Washington. Numbers of public ceremonies wereI arranged by patriotic organizations without regard for the recent contro- versy over the personal habits of the first president and the newer debate over how he would stand on the pro- hibition issue. In Congress, time was set apart from legislative duties for the reading in both houses of Washington's fare- well address and tonight President Coolidge himself will deliver an ad- dress before the National Education association. The, speech will be heard throughout the country over radio. Sharing the center of the day's activities with the capital weredthe Mount Vernon home and tomb of Washington and the George Washing- ton Masonic national memorial, now under construction near Arlington, Va . Boy Scouts and war veterans of the city and points nearby assembled form a pilgrimage to Mount Vernon, while Masons prepared a program at the memorial temple. Obeservance of the anniversary here was arranged on a scale perhaps PREMISE OF WETS is "SAVEYOTHS"1 Plea For Modified Prohibition Made On Grounds That It Wil Help To Correct Alleged Evils CONDITIONS ASSAILED (By Associated Press) WASHINGTON, Feb. 22.-The battle cry of the anti-prohibitionist for a modified form of prohibition to cor- rect alleged evils among the youth of today and save the morals of the com- ing generation was sounded today and tonight by numerous speakers at the second annual "face-the-facts" con- ference of the association against the prohibition amendment. Called to meet on what was de- scribed as a propitious day in view of the principles of liberty and self- control taught by George Washington, hundreds of delegates to the confer- ence heard a series of emphatic speeches in support of legislation for legalization of light wines and beer by members of Congress, the clergy, leaders of women's clubs and others. The speakers generally assailed the conditions which have arisen with prohibitio, declared six years of the law had shown it could not be en- forced, and called for immediate re- lief. Senator Edge, Republican, N. J., one of the recognized "wet" leaders in Congress, renewed at the associa- tion's Washington birthday banquet tonight the vigorous attack launched during an afternoon session at which Senator Edwards, Democrat, of the same state, was the principal speaker. Declaring the drive of the modifica- tionists was "not a campaign for booze, but rather a pract _-al effort for temperance unobservable today," Senator Edge said he would welcome a nationwide referendum on modifica- tion of the Volstead act and amend- ment of the Eighteenth Amendment "to a point of common-sense legaliz-, ing of spirits with all safeguards which can practically be devised." "In that matter and that alone," he asserted, "we can solve the entire problem, if ever it can be solved." Senator Edge declared a referen- dum of this nature would "demon- I strate to our lawmaking bodies the changed public opinion," and should carry with it "a concrete proposition for relief so that citizens could voce intelligently for or against." He advocated a plan modeled some- what after the Canadian experiment and predicted an "overwhelming ver- dict for common-sense, sanity, and decency," if the law were put to such! a test. He said he was hopeful that at hearings to be held by a Senate judiciary sub-committee constructive plans and suggestions "will be brought out which will make possible the adoption of some such definite and concrete plan."

BORAH DENOUNCESI WORLD COUR AT SENATE CLOTURE RULE PRIOR TO FINAL VOTE SCORED AT BANQUET MANY HEAR SPEECH Idaho Congressman Charges League And Court Are Contrary To Ideas Held By Washington (By Assciatd Press) CHICAGO, Feb. 22.-Twice today Senator William E. Borah, of Idaho, inveighed against the United States entering the World Court or the League of Nations. He was bitter in his denunciation of the voting of clo- ture in the recent Senate debate prior to the vote of the World Court issue, i qq William E. Borah and of those who, he said, would have the United States abandon the princi- -ples of George Washington, which have brought 150 years of peace, to dabble in old world hatreds and poli tics which have caused one thousand I years of war. Tonight he spoke at a banquet of1 the Crowe-Barrett-Brundage-Thomp- son faction of the Republican party in Illinois, which also sponsored his afternoon appearance at the Chicago Coliseum. The Coliseum, the scene of several Republican national conventions, was packed to capacity this afternoon and hundreds stood in the street about the historic building. All tickets for the banquet tonight were disposed of days ago. In his afternoon speech, made from the old prizefight ring, built when boxing recently was resuscitated heree for a brief interval, Senator Borah de- clared that the first battle in the fight for American policies and principles was lost when the Senate voted for adherence to the World Court. "We will lose the next unless you people take up the gauge of battle," he said. "You can save the policies of Washington and no one else can." The next step is to take the United States into the League of Nations, he said. He warned against the British hav- ing seven votes to the United States' one in the assembly of the League of Nations, and the Coliseum crowd guf- fawed when he said the United States would have equality with Cuba, Haiti, and Liberia.

BOARD FORCES 275 TO LEAVE COLLECE'" Students Failing To Make Required Grades In Itterary Colleege Placed On "Ionme List" PLACE 61 ON PROBATION Final action taken by the Adminis- trative board of the College of Litera- ture, Science, and the Arts Saturday afternoon resulted in placing 275 stu- dents of that college on the 'home list'. All of this number, with the exception of freshmen, will not be granted re-iistatement until a full school year has passed; to sone, having once before been subjected to a like action of the board, the doors of the University are closed. When the board had considered thes last case Saturday, they had brought to an end a two day task, and more than 330 applications had been given their attention. Of these, 61 were given another semester in which to bring up their scholastic standing, having been placed on probation, or having had a former probation con- tinued. While the exact proportions into which this number may be divided by classes is not at this time known, it has been estimated from statistics of former years, that more than half of these are freshmen. In all classes, no more than 40 girls are on the 'home list.'

Viscount Ishii, Japaneseam- bassador to France, will preside over the council meeting. The official agenda published today includes 26 items, but the list omits the most important questions brought up by Germany's application, that of whether other states besides Germanyl shall be given permanent seats in the' council. Among the questions to be consid- ered is a report of the league's ex-I perts on arbitration conventions and treaties of mutual security registered with the league. It is understood that the experts have found that ex- isting documents show that the idea of settling conflicts by conciliation and arbitration has been more widely. adopted than is generally supposed. This is expected to encourage the league's disarmament discussions. The council will fix a new date for the meeting of the preparatory com- mission for the disarmament confer- ence and also will decide whether this meeting shall be held outside of Switz- erland so as to assure the participa- tion of Soviet Russia.

Last night's victory jams up the Western Conference race to such an extent that it is impossible to pick a winner, although the Illionis quintet occupies first place. Michigan is now tied for third place. Coach Mather started the same five men that did so well against Ohio state Saturday night, playing Cham- bers and Reece at the forwards, Doyle at -center, and Harrigan and Ginn at the guard positions. The Wolverines played a strong de- fensive game, holding the speedy Badger trio Behr, Andrews and Hotchkiss to a single goal, this be- ing a spectacular shot from the cor- ner of the court by the diminuitive Andrews for the first field goal for the visitors. Wisconsin made but three other goals from the floor dur- ing the contest, Powers, a substitute getting two, while Barnum was cred- ited with the other.

"Doug" Ginn, playing his second Big Ten contest as a regular played a stellar game at guard holding An- drews to a single goal, and contrib- uting three long baskets to the Mich- igan total. "Ed" Reece, who starred at Columbus Saturday, was high point scorer last night, with two baskets and three free throws to his credit. The ;game started off very slowly, with the defensive tactics of both teams preventing frequent scores. Ed Reece drew first blood when he sent the ball through the net after follow- iirg up a long shot, and Ginn followed with his initial basket, but during the remainder of the half only three bas- kets were made, Michigan leading 9-6 when the period ended. Both teams. flashed speedy offenses with the start of the second period, and a basket by Barnum and a free throw by Behr evened matters at 9 all, but Harrigan connected with a long basket, and gave his mates a. lead they never relinquished. Wisconsin threatened the Wolver- ine lead after Ginn's third goal had made the score 13-9, when Behr shot another foul, and Powers broke away for a short basket, thus bringing the Badgers to within a point qf the Mather outfit. Chambers made good on a free throw and then Behr 'scoired the final Badger point with a throw from the 15 foot line.
