To Get Tests
In Langu age
Freshmen entering the literary
college in September will face a
language proficiency test rather
than a straight one-year language
requirement.
In action taken yesterday by the
Board of Regents, foreign lan-
guage proficiency to be required
of all literary college undergrad-
uates entering as freshmen in or
A after September, 1956, will be that
equivalent to four semesters of col-
lege instruction.
Present requirement 'is one
year's work in a foreign language
in college or its equivalent in high
school.
Initiated by the literary faculty
in 1951, the move to substitute
proficiency .for across-the-board
language requirements has met
with some objection from Michi-
gan high school principals in the
past three years.
Discissing the motion at yes-
terday's Regents meeting, Univer-
sity President Harlan H. Hatcher
indicated after meetings held be-
tween University personnel and
high school officials many high
school officials now supported the
plan.
In recommending the change to
the Regents, the faculty said some
inequities will be avoided in the
new system. They explained the
proficiency formula substitutes for
the old two-for-one ratio under
which one year of high school
work counts for one semester in
college.
Under the new plan, a high
school student displaying fourth
semester proficiency in his en-
trance test will be excused from
further foreign language work.
No specific requirement of for-
eign language study in high school
is necessary in order to be admit-
tedto the University's literary
college.

Increased funds, he said, would
be necessary to accommodate an
enrollment of 1,000 more students,
to provide additional faculty and
"selected merit - increases" for
present faculty and staff, and to
provide increased student services
and additional maintenance costs
of new and rehabilited buildings.
Social Security
Also provided in the budget is
$295,000 to cover social security,
now available to all University em-
ployes.
Regent J. Joseph Herbert of
Manistique questioned whether the
budget was in line with other state
universities. University President
Harlan .H. Hatcher replied "What,
is being proposed here is about the
same as is being faced by state uni-
versities in other states."
Of the increase of $3,044,398 re-
quested for 1955-56 above sums ap-
propriated during the current year,
$2,491,001 would be for salaries and
wages, and $533,397 for non-salary
itiems.
Legislative requests will be giv-
en to the State Budget Office for
presentation to the new State Leg-
islature, which may cut from or
add to funds requested.

Wolverines Cast
Underdogs
Homecoming Tilt To Draw 70,000;
Both Unbeateh in Conference Play
By HANLEY M. GURWIN
Associate Sports Editor
For the first time in 13 years, Michigan will be seeking to wrest
the Little Bown Jug fronm the grasp of Minnesota as the Wolverines
and Gophers square off in Michigan Stadium this afternoon before
a Homecoming Day crowd of over 70,000 fans.
Kick-off time for the 45th meeting between the schools is 2 p.m.
Although both teams are undefeated in Big Ten play, the
Gophers, who last year ran away with the jug on the strength of
a 22-0 whitewashing of the Maize and Blue, rate as a one-touchdown
pre-game favorite.
While this is the first time since 1942 that the Wolverines have
entered the contest as the challengers for the fabled bit of crookery,
this is not the first time that they have assumed the role of the
underdog.
In 1949, a highly touted Gopher eleven came storming into Ann
Arbor with an impressive 4-0 record, exactly the same mark which
they bring into today's game, and sporting a championship gleam
in their eyes.
The Wolverines meanwhile had been having troubles along
the way and most observers were
expecting Minnesota to win its
first game here since 1941.
The Wolverines had a different lans Made
notion, however, and tripped up
the Maroon and Gold, 14-7.
