other, that such procedure be made the
policy of the university. The new com

ence. would take the place Of the com
mittec Of nine, which was appointed

of nine intended to make il possible
for the faculty Of which the accused
professor might be a member always

VIII Select Nominees
October 30. six days before the meet
ing of the board Of trustees, has been
set as the date for the appointment OF
the committee Of reference. During
the next two weeks the faculties Of all
the schools will select nominees whose
names will be considered by the Uni
versity Council, the appointive body.
The acquiescence Of the council in the
plan of its committee probably will
have considerable weight with the
trustees, as among its members are

Secretary Rcdfeld's speech caused
the greatest stir, in that it developed
2 distinct difference Of opinion from
the public utterances of President Will

a "war after the war had been
frowned down by them.
While Secretary Redfeld expressed
the hope that industrial and CONNER
