COLLEGE RELIGION
 SESSION OPENING
Important Conference on Today
 at Princeton

Princeton. N. J.. Feb. 1s. R- More than 200 educators, includins the presidents of some sixty eaSteru universities and colleges, today be- gan discussions of their conference on religion among college men. They were confronted with the assertions of one delegates that only ten per cent of the student body of the average institution could be fairly termed religiously minded" \ State Of Religion The delegates in addition 9ravely assumed the burden of responsibility for lack of religious training col leges. placed upon them by Martyn l.. keeler, Yale senior, who con tributed his beliefs at the opening session last night which was deyot ed to a symposium. on The Stat. of Religion Among College Men."
 Presenting the viewpoint of tht university administration, Presiden, Ernest H. Wilkins of Oberlin col lege, declared that of a representa- tive group of 1000 undergraduates 800 assumed passive attitude to. ward religion, 100 were agnostic or atheistic. while the remainder migh. be called 'religiously minded"
 The latter group was not readily reducible to type. Dr. Wilkins xaid and the irreligious class either sim ply preferred the way of physical and mental vice or threw over re- ligion as d matter of mental excite ment,' but the passive percentage despite indifference, Is affected b, "an undercurrent of unselfish de. sire to do things that are worth. while"
 "A desire to improve conditions on the campus" Dr. Wilkins added. Ito improve conditions by and by, when you get whack at them, in the city in the country, in the world. I should like to bear Wit ness to the fact that fairly exten. sive and intimate contact with col lege men in recent years has given me an increased confidence in thei, native idealism, and I must confess that the college in my opinion is not adequately maintaining and devel- oping that idealism."
 keeler. whose youth and black hair stood out in bold relief from among the gray headed educators. made an earnest plea for the inclu- sion of religion in the college curri- cula.
 The curriculum, at present, has small place for religion" he said. Why not broaden it out until 1t is on par with every other depart ment? . Surely students cannot b. expected to pay attention to a sighted subject. The situation. gentlemen. is largely in your hands, in spite of what we who arc trying to foster voluntary religion among undergraduates may do. We ex- pected you to give it the attention it deserves"
 President Henry Sloan Coffin Of Union Theological Seminary, speak, ing from the viewpoint of the uni- versity preacher. agreed with the youth, characterizing many chapel services he had witnessed as "siov- enly" and without dignity.
 Dr. Alfred E. Stearns, headmas. ter of Phillips academy, Andover. presented the views of the head master.

ton Of Nonpartisan to succeed
an Independent in the delegation
from Morton county. With bare
majority of one vote in the senate,
however, the Independents are ex-
pected to experience the same diff
ficulty in maintaining complete
control Of the senate that they ex-
perienced at the last regular scs-
sion.
Persons who have given careful
consideration to the political as
poets of the special session say they
can see no political advantage
which can accrue to the governor
by reason Of a special session Of a
legislature controlled by his oppon-
ents.
The governors only answer to
such comments is his oft-repeated
statement that he does not consider
himself in politics and that he has
no interest whatever in political
advantage or disadvantage. "Poli-
ticians could not be expected to IN
derstand that" he says.
As result of the air Of mystery
surrounding the reasons for the
special session, keen interest is
generally expressed here, but with
out the usual heavy mass Of legisla-
tive business in prospect, there is
little excitement.
