not standard but which teach the
same branches, must undergo an ex-
animation before being admitted.
President Winter stated that while
the heads of the smaller colleges of
the state We're aware that this stan
dardization plan was inevitable they
believed that it would not become
operative for at least five years and
by that time, with the start which
the endowment upon which they were
working would give them, the institu-
ton would be in a position to enter
the list of standard schools.
Opinions Heard.
Several of the subscribers announc-
ed their Willingness to pay their
pledges in the face of the gloomy
outlook, believing that the college
should have their support and that
the officials would be able to work
out their difficulties in good season,
Some said that, while they had sub
scribed under the representation that
the institution would develop the
West tide tract, they were willing to
have the old location used if it
would assist the college. Others
thought that, if the old location was
utilized a smaller endowment might
be acceptable, but this was declared
Impractical as it would require the
full amount proposed to be raised to
be of use to the college.
President Winter will make an eff
fort to see the balance of the sub
scribers and lay the matter before
them and endeavor to ascertain what
it is possible to accomplish, before
definite action is taken in the matter
