School News

dents of Richard Montgomery this
year have already been passed
upon by the student government.

must be broad enough to accom-
odate most of the students. If not,
the school curriculum will continue
without special clubs.
Rules were set up by the stu
dent government, which had to be
followed by the clubs. The pro-
posed organizations first had to
state the purpose of the particular
organization, the sponsor, the
number of meetings desired per
week, and have fifteen members in
order to be approved.
If an organization fails to up
hold or fulfill its purpose, it can
be disband by the student govern
ment.
The Band, Baton Twill II S,
Ninth Grade Songsters and Glee
Club were those sanctioned in the
music department. In the line Of
discipline and order, the Patrol
and Tribunal were approved. The
GAA and I'M" Club were the
athletic clubs approved.

Richard Strauss, Noted German Composer, Dies

Garmisch Partenkirchen, Ger many, (P-Richard Strauss, one of the worlds greatest contempor- ary composers, died yesterday. He was 85.
 His genius ran the gamut of musical expression from simple songs and chamber music to sym phonic poems, symphonies and operas. Der RoSenkaVelier" and his impressionistic opera "Salome' are among his most popular works.
 He was a musical prodigy at the age of four and began composing when he was six. At l2 his Opus No l, "Fetmarsch" for orchestra was before the public.
 ImpreSSioniStic expressions in tone form which Strauss composed in middle life were the subject of critical debate. He lived to see many of his innovations become al most commonplace musical device.

College Graduates Fall Short
OF REPRODUCING Themselves

fayette was even lower, 1888. The
vassar alumnae could muster only
1.49 children and Wellesley las.
The University Of Maryland re-
ported only 1.46 children per
Graduate and Trinity College here
also was not reproducing itself
with 1.8I children per graduate
reported.
The surrey of the class of 1924
revealed the deficit Of college
graduates children is nation wide,
the bureau said. Men graduates
from 100 colleges averaged lit
children while women graduates
from 112 colleges made an even
poorer showing with 1,26 children.
Figures of the 1910 census dis
closed that non-college women Of
the same approximate age averaged
2.45 children and that women with
no more than four years Of
schooling averaged 4.33 children.
If this was an unusual year.
the damage to the country might
not be great. but the surveys of
three preceding classes of 1921
through 1923 show that the loss is
approximately the same each
year." the bureau said.
The bureau is a non-profit
scientific organization with offices
at 1907 M street NV. and was
founded 20 years ago.

The question OF Wnetner the

babies" was raised by the Popula-
ton Reference Bureau here today
as It reported . that Americas
college graduates are not produc-
ing enough babies to replace
themselves.
Based on a survey Of the class
Of 1924, which is holding 25th
reunions now throughout the
country, the report showed women
have failed to replace themselves
by 40 per cent and the men by
16 per cent.
The bureau discovered that
graduates from co-educational
and western. colleges produce the
largest families.
AS might be expected from the

set the birth rate pace. Graduates
Of that university can boast of
SAT children per male graduate
and 2.45 children per woman
