improved. The students and the
toWnspeople, for the most part,
feel that the conditions weren' t
as bad as might be inferred from
the report.
Mr.. Darden last night agreed
that conditions have improved"
and Dean Newman concurred, add
ing, however, that they haven t
improved to such an extent that
they are satisfactory"
The dean also clarified his re-
mark in the report by saying that
the conditions to which he re-
ferred involve a small percent
age" of the students.
1T should not be assumed that
a majority of students are in
volved," Dean Newman said.
Mr.. Darden declared the real
difficulty" lies in the absence of
recreational facilities within the
university itself. He explained
that the male students (there are
only about 200 women enrolled)
have no place at which they can
entertain their dates, particularly
on the big dance week ends three
times each year.
He said meeting rooms, which
would provide a place, ARE well

CHARLOTTESVILLE. Va, Mar.
18.-The Cavalier Daily, official
student publication of the Uni
versity of Virginia, lashed out edi-
torially today at a deans report
which criticized social life at the
school.
The report, made by j. H. New
man. dean of students. was ap-i
pended to the report of the uni
versity president, Colgate w. Dar-
den, jr., to the Board of Visitors.
Among other things, Dean New
man charged that "unchaperoned
girls and women are being enter
tanned at all hours in the
dormitory rooms"
Dean Newman added that
while it is believed the greater
part of this practice is innocent,
there is reason to believe that
much of it is not" He would
not elaborate on the basis for his
report.
The dean also declared that
"the drinking of alcoholic liquors
is an increasing problem every
where today and it is particular
ly serious problem here at the
university"
Don Hood, Student Council
president, said that since last Sep
tember when the council went into
full operation" with new dis
ciplinary authority, one student
had been required to give up his
lease and move from the grounds
because he was found guilty of
entertaining woman in his
dormitory room.
Mr.. Hood said the council has
considered 10 or Is" cases of
public drunkenness. He said the
offenders have been disciplined
and there have been mo repeat"
offenses. He said the punishment
includes being placed on probation
and restricted from membership
In organizations and participation
in athletic activity.
The council president explained
that the Investigation made and
cases heard by the governing
group were as a result of normal
function and not because of Dean
Newmans report which was not
made public until last month.
Dean Criticized.
The Cavalier Daily asserted
editorially that lit is our candid
opinion that the dean has pen
chant for saying the right things
In the wrong places"
80 " His remarks aid and abet, /
however unintentionally. the type
of professional scandal-mongers
who are blind to the actual in /
cidence of such problems in stu
dent life at any university in the
world" the publication added.
The editorial. too, was critical
of Mr.. Darden. He seems to have
demonstrated a lack of foresight
In allowing those observations to
be printed in what otherwise is
a very fine. report =" it said /
Report Mailed to Alumni.
The report covered the year end
