Sixty Freshmen and Fifteen Up

Too much interest in the frivolous mat

responsible for the nunlllug Of quite q NUM-
Der of freshmen in the mid-year exams at
the Wharton School Of thS University Of
Pennsylvania sixty "freshics' and fifteen
upper cassmen fell down" in the test
Among those who failed to pass were
several athletic stars. including Ben Derr.
star halfbacli Of the varsity team: lngoI
Ertresvaag, a guard, and Charles Rouse
captain OF the freshmen team; Jimmy Bry-
ant, sub quarterback, is under advlsemeut
Some of the others ON probation include
Guy Nevins. former president of the sopho-
more class, and Arthur Kissing, news editor
iof the Pennsylvania.
In addition to the seventy-tive students
who failed to pass, twenty-five more are
"On the fence"
It is the opinion Of some of the members
Of the Wharton School executive committee
that many of the students fail to get the
proper conception of the school The
standard of the Wharton School Is higher
than ever before, and the youth who desires
to make good has to buckle down to study
and keep his mind ON the tasks at hand.
The committee who passed on the general
status Of the students is composed of Dr.
