 Oxford and Cambridge

Cambridge Mass, April R,--A plan 10 sub-diyide Harvard into col lcges of the Oxford and Cambridge type Is proposed by the Harvard stu dent council.
 A report Of lis committee and edu- cation makes this it's salient point. Other subjects dealt with include en- dorsemcnt of the recently announc- cd plan to restrict freshman enroll.
 ment, q proposal that the require ments for distribution in science and
 philosophy be changed to deal npe- officially with the problems that have arisen between religion and science and plea for more inspirational teaching.
 After pointing out that club din ing rooms long since have supplant- ed memorial hall where all students formerly shared the opportunity Of social intercourse and interchange of Ideas. tho report says this change
 has brought great change In under graduate life.
 The report suggests that the typi- cal college would consists of from ej0 10 300 students of the three up- per classes who would live together in a group Of adjacent dormitories. | Each college would have its own | { m an nd .,,;, 1,nn ,1 q rcsid"rt dean who would be both ! the social and academic head of the college.
 Upper classmcn only would he af focted, the present freshman system being deemed essential to provide a
 foundation of unity and homogene-
 ivy between the diverse groups In
 each entering class.
 In the section of the report deal
 ing with the academic side of edu. cation at liar ard. the con mlttee onn c"l" q new general science curse for students not concentrating in science.
 The part that deals with religion and science says that in order to realize the larger purpose of philoso- phy, the present introductory course should be reorgani2ed so as 10 offer
 the student a sound basis on which 10 build his own philosophy of life
 "Whcn organized religion breaks down, as if now has in the case of so many students, the conditions are
  with q problem of enabling the stu dent 10 work ont a rational view Of fife which accords with the teach ingS of science but which also takes into account those higher truths of character which science cannot teach"
 The report concludes with q plea tor less podantic teaching. and more human values in instruction.

The two teams, though equal in almost every respect as far as play ing ability is concerned, are radical ly different in method and team work.
