MEMBERS OF ST.
JOHNS FACULTY ARE
| RENAMED BY BOARD

All of the members of the faculty
of st. Johns College, from President
Fell down, were re-appointed at a
meeting of the Board of Governors
and Visitors Of the Institution held
in Mcdowell Hall last night.
1t was one of the regular quarter
ly meetings of the Board, and several
other matters pertaining to the af-
fairs of the institution were touched
upon. Chief among these was the
question of proposed increased salar-
les for all the tutors, but no definite
action in this direction was taken.
1t is likely, however, that provision
will be made before the reopening
of the College for the Collegiate term
in September.
The Board was formally advised
that the College had again been rated
as coming within the ten 'disting-
uished" military institutions of the
country, which rating is based upon
efficiency shown by the battalion OF
Cadets in military science and tao
tics. The inspections upon which this
conclusion was reached was conduct
ed by an officer of the Regular Army
several weeks ago.
