| is hoped to secure an orator of ma
tional reputation. In the baseball
game, it is expected that Martin Nc
Hale. ex-'11, who has just renewed his
contract with the New York team of
the American League, will pitch for
the Alumni and an effort will be made
to induce other alumni of baseball
fame to return for this exercise. A
new feature of Commencement proper
will be the procession Of trustees, fac
ulty, alumni, and students, which will
form directly after the exercises of
the morning and after march
around the campus, proceed to the
alumni dinner.
In order to insure the participation
of as many undergraduates as posi-
Bile, a new system of conducting ex-
aminations has been adopted. Instead
of devoting a full week to the finals
as heretofore, recitations will continue
as usual except that examinations will
be held during the final recitation peri
DDS. The number of periods to be
devoted to this purpose is to be de-
terrnined by the individual depart
ments or instructors The program
calls for a better and bigger Com
mencement than Maine has yet known
and no effort will be spared to insure
the success of the new plan.
BY an arrangement with the State
Highway Commission, Of which Paul
D.. Sargent, go is chief engineer, the
road materials tenting laboratory Is
to be established at the University in
charge of the department OF civil
engineering. Tests will be made by the
members of the faculty and the lab
oratory will also be available Tor the
regular work which is given the stu
dents. The department announces
that the. laboratory will be much bet
ter than that in the office of Pubic
Roads in Washington and far in ad-
vance of laboratories of this kind at
the average institution.
For over 20 years courses In high
way engineering have been required OF
all graduates in civil engineering at
Maine. -Four years ago 1t was seen
that the question of highway improve
nsent would soon be leading one, ana
plans were made to develop addition
al courses for those students VINO de-
sired further preparation In this work.
During this time Professor Kaulfuss
has been preparing to take charge OF
the work and in addition spent last
summer in the laboratories in the OF
fee Of Public Works at Washington.
It was largely owing to his aggressive
work that the plans for cooperation
between the Commission and the Uni
yersity were matured. These plans
were finally decided upon at a recent
conference between the Commission
and Dean Boardman
Professor r. p. Gray. Of the depart
ment of English, has been appointed
recently the permanent representa-
tive in the State Of Maine of the Ma
tional Council Of Teachers OF English.
The Headquarters Of this organization
are in Chicago; and the official organ
is the English Journal" Professor F.
T. Baker, of Columbia University is
the president. 1t will be the duty OF
Professor Gray to bring the teachers
of English In Maine in close touch
and harmony with the work OF the
National Council. Toward this end
new organization OF teachers was Ell
fected at Waterville on January 18th
to be known as the Maine Council OF
Teachers Of English. This organize
