Uo Usher In
Of Honor Points
E grade has been received shall be in-
cluded in the calculation of the honor
point average. Under the former reg-
ulations, the hours of E grade were
deducted from the total hours of the
semester in calculating the honor
point average. In many instances a
student's scholastic record was higher
if he received an E in a particular
course than if he had received a D.
There is no doubt that mahy of the
students were well aware of this loop-
hole in the grading system, and it was
even rumored that instructors were
requested to report a grade of, E
rather than D when a student with
a poor scholastic average approached
admission to a degree program. So

Ann Arborite Has Essay
In Dec.. Reader's Digest
The Abundant Life," an essay by
Arthur J. Wiltse, executive manager
of the Ann Arbor Press, appears in
tihe December issue of the Reader's
Digest.
A formertnewspaperman, Mr.
Wiltse wrote the article three months
ago and distributed it to friends. One
of those who received a copy sub-
mitted it tothe editors of the maga-
zine and it was purchased immed-
iately for use in condensed form.
Married Teachers Return
To Regular Salary Basis
Eight women teachers in the public
schools of Ann Arbor who have been
serving on a "permanent substitute'
basis because of their married status
were restored to the regular salary
schedule by action of the Board of
Education Tuesday night.

tion of Professor-emeritus Edwin C.
Goddard of the Law School, will cost,
the school system approximately $3,-
500 this year.
grading system of the College of Lit-
erature, Science, and the Arts.
The alteration which has been
made is two-fold. The relationship
of honor points to. hours of credit
has been changed so that for the class
of 1941 and subsequent classes the
numerical equivalents for the several
letter grades will be as follows:
A 4,B 3,.C=2,D =1,E=0.
This change need not hold any ter-
rors for the student, however, since
the difference between this new sys-
tem and the former one where C car-
ried but one honor point will not re-
quire a change in the quality of work
necessary for graduation.
The other alteration may, however,
make a considerable difference to the
student who is near the border line
of the C average required for admis-
sion to a degree program and for
graduation. This alteration requires
that the hours of credit for which an
