A big suprise Is in store for the friends Iof Storrs Agricultural College. Trouble Is said to be brewing for the faculty and the trustees, according to good report, have slated some radical changes that in- clude the removal of President B. F. Rooms, three lady instructors, namely, Miss Margaret Keawill, Miss Harriet and l.. P. Chamberlin, farm superin- tendent. President Rooms Is a graduate of oberlln College, "A, and Yale, 'st. He was principal for ten years and about four years ago was made president.
 The commencement of the college will be held In two weeks and 1t Is said that the trustees have about decided to make the removals immediately thereafter.
 Besides these wholesales changes 1t Is said that the trustees have Tn mind the raising of Professor A. B. Peebles to the presidency of the college. He Is a grad uate of the Michigan Agricultural College and teaches physics and chemistry. He has been a minister in Utah, but has been connected with Storrs for the past six or seven years. He has given lectures in various parts of the state and has con- siderable popularity.
 The program outlined above Is said to be substantially what the trustees have In mind, although no vote has yet been taken, and some changes may be made before final action Is taken. ...... a.....
 The cause of this wholesale change in the faculty Is said to be dissatisfaction first, with President Koons's methods. The trustees think that the college needs a more energetic, up-to-date management. Then, too, some fault Is found that con- sistent discipline has not been maintain. cd. It Is also said that portion of the alumni are opposed to the elevation oi Professor Peebles to the presidency and that while they favor new head for the institution, they would not vote to Iecom mend the removal of President Koons because of the trustees plans to promote Professor Peebles. -HGrtf0rd O0Hrant |
