Rules Governing Affiliations.
! Colleges and seminaries may. with the

graduates to enter the university without
examinations. Students who have complet-
ed their collegiate or seminary courses, but
who have taken no degree must comply
with the general requirements for admis-
| sion. The affiliated colleges SO far eStab-
| lshed in the neighborhood of the univer-
| sity are houses of study in which members
of the respective religious communities fol-
low courses in philosophy and theology.
| Their students are also admitted to the uni
versity courses, either as auditors Or when
duly qualified. as candidates for degrees.

situations DESTROYS of affilating shall submit
to the university trustees a curriculum of
studies in order that the university authori-
ties may determine whether the course of
studies prescribed by the institution desir-
Gus to avail itself of the advantages of affil-
iation comes up to the standards required
by the university. The second feature of
the plan adopted today provides that insti-
tutiOns desiring to affiliate must also SUBJ

of their examinations that the standing

the utilization plan into the university may
also be ascertained
st. Mary's Seminary.
No action has thus far been taken by the
trustees in connection with the proposition
! to remove st. Mary's Seminary from Bal
timore to the vicinity of the Catholic Uni
| veIsty. ST. Mary's is one of the most ven
| cradle Catholic institutions in the United
| Sulpicians and Catholics throughout the
| world. The Sulpicians have charge of the
! theological school of the university and in
| addition maintain the affiliated college of
| st. Austins near the university The order
| has also purchased q large tract of ground
| on Michigan avenue with the intention of
| erecting a large modern structure.
While there was no action on this propo-
| stion of removing st. Marys to the uni
| Versity neighborhood. there was consider
Lob inf ,f
the university today. The chief argument
used in favor of its removal is that with
so famous theological school once estab-
| lished within the confines of the Catholic
| University grounds. ready to receive under
| graduates in theology that the under
graduate theological work of the university
| could be absorbed by St. Mary's. leaving
| the university to round out it's mission as a
| postgraduate institution. 1t is also pointed
| out that the removal of st. Mary's to Wash
| ington would centralZe the Sulpician in
| terests of this country in Washington and
| thai the combined strength of the univer-
| sity, St. Mary's and the affiliated institu-
| tons of the university would add prestige
| to the entire group of institutions one Of

| logical centers outside of Rome

| Methods for properly taking care of Cath
| Ole Indian children in the government In
dian schools and the work for the next six
months were discussed, and a number of
| questions disposed of, although all were not
of public interest
! The bureau supports, aids a number
/ of Indian schools. One method of enlist
| ing interest is through a missionary lee
| turer. Throughout the east the bureau
| has Dl Charles Warren Currier, formerly
! pastor of st. Marys Church, Washington,
as its lecturer. The field is so large that

bureau believes the field should be COW

| night authorized Father Ketcham to Sc
cure the services of some priest of mis-
sionary qualifications as lecturer for the
