down from rs per cent to SO per cent.
The independent companies by this
move have begun to get the business

to meet the competition the latter will
be compelled to make similar reduc-
tions. This, it is stated, they intend to
do, and definite announcement is ex-
pected soon.

CLUBS VALUE TO WOMEN

Miss Lucy Sprague, dean of women,

her department. She said that the sys-
TEN of house clubs was one of the
strong features Of the present system
and growing yearly. Concerning the
value of the house clubs over the fra
ternities. the writer said:
The clubhouse system has proved itself an
unqualified success. Not only does it take the
students away from the responsibility of
boarding house life. or from the strain and sola-
tion of doing their own house keeping but it
organizes them into definite responsible groups
with definite relations TO their university and
definite standards to maintain
In these two years two national fraternfties
have started chapters the university, one OBJ

FACULTY SALARIES

President Wheeler of University

Says Greek Letter Fraternities
Are Part Solution of Problem

BERKELEY, Oct. 2z.-A plea for
higher salaries for members of the uni
versity faculty is made by President
Wheeler in his biennial report TO Gov
ernor James Gillett, which is published
today. He quoted statistics TO prove
that the faculty Of the university is
underpaid. He said:
The salaries for the different grades should
be raised 50 that Instructors shah receive $1,000
TO S1,5o0, assistant professors $1S00 TO 81, 40o,
associate professors $500 tn $1,000, fuu pro

pansion into new fields and multiplied courses @
Of the same field. Duplication OF advanced and

SOLVE PROBLEM
Arguing that there should be a closer
union of the students, President
Wheeler declared that the Greek letter
secret societies which have sprung up
of their own accord in the American
universities have offered a partial solu-
ton. The large number of students
enrolled in the university he declared to
be the cause of the present conditions.
He continued:
The Greek letter fraternities and the clubs
sent an opportunity of which have not as
yet availed ourselves. No one planned the sys-
TEN. but these associations have grown up evil
dently in accord with natural conditions and in
response TO some kind Of natural demand Now
that we have them. instead of deploring them
we had better utilize them 1t is quite con
eeivable that they may yet come TO provide
the American counterpart of the English college.
A unique feature of the biennial re-
port is that submitted to the head of
the university by Prof. Lincoln Hutch
inson, dean of the men students. He
declared that supervision over the mem
bers Of the entering classes by the fac
ulty advisers is increasing each year

system Professor Hutchinson declared
TO be needed by the poor showing made
by the entrants in the past. The prob.

Epworth League Boys Entertain

Last Friday evening, at the
home of Francis Englehart, the
boys of the Epworth League enter
tanned the girl members of the
league in manner that was thor
oughly enjoyable. The atmosphere
of the Englehart home is hospitable,
the boys are royal entertainers, the
girls were in the mood to be enter
tained-all of which combined to
make the affair one Of the jolliest
of the year. Stick candy and pea
nuts were first served as refresh
ments and, since they were served
in quantities, the young ladies were
satisfied, but when some one spoke
of going home, the real fun began.
The boys announced that from that
time on the party was to be leap
year affair and that each girl must
secure her own company for supper
and then, just to give the girls a
new experience, the boys refused
them until each girl had asked five
different boys. The fifth one ac-
accepted and the whole party was
feasted to ice cream served in de-
licious cones. At late hour the
party dispersed and the girls GER
tainly felt that they had been we'll
entertained. x x X
