BERKELEY. March s.-The refusal OF the
Students Affairs Committee to lay down def
mite rules for the guidance OF the students on
Charter day promises a rupture between that
body and the members of the senior class. In
the past the seniors have co-Operated on Charter
day to prevent a clash between the students OF
the three lower classes There so much
trouble over the rush OF last year that Max
Thelen, president Of the senior class and sew
eral other seniors asked the Students Affairs
committee to fix definite rule Of discipline for
this year This the committee refused TO do,
saying that all il expected Of the students was
TO act like gentlemen. Such vague rule was
not acceptable to Theien and his friends and
an uItimatum Will be delivered TO the commit
tee requesting something more definite the
seniors will refuse to assist the faculty on
Charter day. The ground for the committees :
refusal TO acquiesce in the demand of the
seniors is that 1t is not academic 10 fix any
specific rules for the disciplining Of students.
