Chicago, March 20.--Trahsfor-
nation of the University OF Chi
cago from an institution where
undergraduates thrive, into a
school for "highbrow' graduates
is planned by trustees.
The plan calls for a drastic re
organization of the entire work
Of the University.
Undergraduate enrolment will
be sharply reduced by rigid en-
trance requirements to eliminate
all the unfit and admit only stu
dents with exceptional ability ana
serious purpose.
The social life of the University
now one of its greatest attrac-
tons, will be allowed to dwindle
down.
Athletics will be only tolerated
if not openly discouraged. This
phase of the plan will mean the
passing of Chicago from its po-
sition in the Western Confer
ence, which has done much to
foster the spirit Of amateur ath-
letics during the last decade.
The plan frankly sets down as
its object the making of "gradu-
ate research and study of the pun
pose of the university"
Announcement Of the proposal
drew storm of protest from The
alumni, who do not approve OF
anything which threatens the attn,
letic prestige of their alma mater
Such plan will mean the de-
struction of the university's So
cial life, athletics, and all under.
graduate activities" Walter Ken
needy, president of the undergrad
uate council declared.
First steps in adoption of The
proposal have already been taken
The limitation of students vii

and enrolment may be cut as
much as one-third.
In line with the new policy
higher standards for students
have become effective. The lates'

scheme, and includes other inno-
vations which will be put into
effect as soon as approved by
higher authority.
Freshmen will first be given a
psychological test to determine
,,bility. All but those with super
power will be eliminated.
Next the candidate must pro-
duce satisfactory evidence that
oe has serious purpose i'll life
He will then be required to
give proof of his intellectual in
terests, which will be governed
somewhat by his preparatory
school record.
The final test through which
the candidate must pass will be q
personal interview with some fac
ulty representative, who will pass
on his fitness. The last require
ment was decided necessary as :
safeguard against admission of
too many "grinds' and "wooder
heads, student whose only de-
sire is high marks. The final test
will eliminate this class in ia
vor of students who have some
degree of social grace and high
ambition. 1t will also allow the
faculty to make exceptions in
certain cases where interesting
students might otherwise he bar
red.
Faculty members who back the
plan admit that the undergradu-
ate will be gradually thrust aside
and replaced by the men and wo-
men interested and capable OF do
ing research and graduate work.

Brown and Tan to
Lead Shoe Styles
English Lasts in Demand
Brogues Worn EX-
tensively
(By Sam Xamon)

Simplifcation and Standardiza-
ton explain the situation in the
shoe industry today, as far as
mems footwear is concerned. The
novelty and freak of other years
ARE among the relies that one
sees in the museums and to-
day few businesses are as happy
As the one in which the mems
shoe merchant is the devotce.
In mems commodities the price
of footwear was among the last
to show decrease. While mater
Iials entering in the making OF
shoes and oXfordS took a tumble
several years ago, the greatest
! item in the production of foot
wear-labor- the last to be
decreased. Now that wages are
lowered a bit-not a great deal
at that and styles have been
simplifed, prices of the finished
product have decreased, too.
The idea of cutting down on
the number of styles has reduc-
ed the task of both manufacturer
and retailer. As result both are
in happier frame of mind, as
'qeftovers" have been cut down
to the minimum.
The vari-colorcd tops and the
two-toned effects of past sea
sons have been shelved for the
time being with little promise of
return for long, long time to
come.
Naturally. there will be few
freakish lasts to satisfy some eX-
traordinary whim, but such foot
wear is far in the minority. Black
lowers with tan or brown up
pers have gone into the discard
while the single-toned shoe or OK
fords will lead the van.
Cordovan leather, which once
was the vogue, also has taken a
back seat, despite its wonderful
quality of service and durability.
The non-porous condition of this
leather is said to have been the
cause of much foot trouble. but
the cordovan shades, however,
will be retained, as they found
popularity among the younger
men.
Dark browns promise to get
quite a play this spring and sum-
mer, but there, too, will be the
lighter tan shades. Blacks. OF
course. viii have quite follow
ing, as will coco-browh, mahog-
any, russell and Havana browns.
Gunmetal finishes will go strong
as usual, with vici kid and CLOS
sicr finishes second in the race
for popularity.
The narrow English custom toe
last and the medium ball shapes
will continue in favor among the
Younger fellows, while the wider
and more comfortable lasts, with
plenty of toe room, are for the
older men, who prefer to sac
rifice style to comfort.
Brogues will be worn extern
sively, but the winged tips and
perforated toes will drop off a
DIT in general appeal
Spats for the ultra dresser will
continue in favor and the coIors
will be much like last year, when
tans, grays, fawns, browns and
buck sold in the majority.
When Old Sol beats his fer
cest the canvas oxford will come
forth strong. The Palm Beach
shades will be worn more extern
sivcly than the white. White
bucks will have the call for for
NAL affairs.

French Is Near Cause
of Family Smash-up

Congressman Burton L. French
told a story on himself in Caldwell
last Friday that will bear repeti-
ton.
Caldwell, he said. had welcomed
him in the informal and thorough
~ friendly way that he enjoyed.
Not quite like that was his sensa-
ton when he visited the home of
an Idaho citizen on this trip, a
home he had visited last year as
well. as a dinner guest.
To the young 5 year old Amer
lean who seemed TO dominate the
household, Congressman French
addressed himself. remarking that
he believed the boy did not rec
ognize him, did not remember who
he was.
"Oh yes. | do" the youngster
replied. you're the man that
daddy brought home last year for
dinner and mother wouldn't speak
TO him for two weeks"
