Session Is Secret.

DR. FRANK P. GRAHAM, president
Of the University Of North Caro-
lima and sponsor of the movement to
de-emphasize athletics in the confer
ence, appeared before the body when it
convened here late yesterday and out
lined his proposals which were en-
bodied in resolutions signed by six
presidents Of conference institutions.
The plan, which was adopted by q
6-to-4 vote, provides that intercol-
legiate athletics be placed in the
hands of the presidents and faculty
committees Of conference schools.
These committees would include
groups on eligibility, scholarships, jobs
and loans, with each committee re-
sponsible to the college presidents.
Voting for the plan were Virginia,
Washington and Lee, Virginia Tech,
North Carolina, ~ @. State and
Maryland. Opposed were Duke,
v. M. T., South Carolina and Clemson.
The conference session was held
behind closed deers and President
Forest Fletcher. head of the WASH
lngton and Lee physical education
department, who presided at the
meeting, declined to reveal the pa
ture of the lengthy discussion which
took place on the Graham plan.
All Promise to Support Plan.
"THE meeting ended with all dele
gates on friendly terms" he de-
clared. Those who opposed the
plan, as well as the advocates, have
promised to do their best to make
it successful"
1t was learned from a delegate who
asked that his name be withheld that
as the plan was discussed paragraph
by paragraph, the principle opposition
was voiced by Dean w. H. Wanna
maker, faculty chairman of athletics
at Duke, while the replies were made
by Dr. Graham. Dean Wannamaker
urged that action on the plan be de-
ferred at least year.
H. c. Byrd, former coach at Mary
land and now acting president Of that
institution, commented that the Ora.
ham plan would not change the pres
ent athletic set-up at Maryland. We
are already living within its require
ments."
When asked whether he believed
the adoption of tho plan by the
Southern Conference would influence
other conferences to take like steps,
he said that II have been close to
college athletics for some years and
I know some change in present pol
icies is needed. ! believe this is a
step in the right direction. Whether
1t will be accepted by other confer
ences, / cannot say"

ITEUMITES CAUSE
 OF HEAVY LOSS
Campaign Opens Here to
 Extermlinate Invasion of Insects

The increasing toll of damage and destruction due to the ravageS of termltes has awakened Connecticut to the vital necessity of an effective method of ternite protection and control.
 In Waterbury, live terTnitc infes- tations have been found m various parts of tho city, also in Middlebury and Woodbury. In most instances the presence of the termites was unsuspected until repairs were needed and then the carpenter dis- covered that instead of rot, termites had eaten the wood. If the insects had been discovered sooner, expen- slve repairs would not have been needed.
 Not only have these insects at- lacked homes but many l1lanufac- turing and industrial plants in this area have been attacked.
 The Terminix Company of New England is Q llcensee of the D. L. Bruce Company of Memphis, Ten- nessee. It is part of nationwide organization operating through 6i licensees. Their work Is guaranteed by them and by the D. l.. Bruce co. and this guarantee is bonded by the Sun Life Insurance O., LtdY of London. This ironclad assurance is offered for your protection only by the Bruce organization.
 The TerrniniX co. of New Eng land offers to the home owners of Waterbury It's service in detecting the presence of termites and in rec. concentrations as to control.
