"Our aim in introducing the oral examination to the sophomore class is to encourage the better grade of students by Indicating their super iority in having them made eligible, upon recommendation by their in structors, for the oral test, explained Dean Hahne today. "And, he continued, it frees the "A" student from the final written test, as the oral one is made Its equiv alent.

From Wednesday's Pailv During the past several months. the District Governor of Rotary In ternational with the assistance of Rotarians from Omaha and Nebras ka City! made a survey of Platts mouth with the idea in mind of in stalling a Rotary club in our city. Through their counsel, efforts and guidance, a group of seventeen busi ness and professional men applied for a charter some four weeks ago, and today word is received that the request has been granted by Rotary: International, thereby giving Platts mouth representation in a world wide organization of considerable magni tude and Importance. Rotary International, the organi zation of which all Rotary clubs are members, consists of some 25 hun dred clubs with approximately 125 thousand members in 37 different countries. Each club is a group of representative business and profes sional men, one from each distinct business organization in a commun ity, who, without secret vog, dogma or creed, but each in his own way have accepted the Rotary philosophy of service, and have organized to study the theory of service as the true basis of success and happiness in business. These seventeen members consti tute the nucleus of what will no doubt be a club of considerable mem bership in time to come, and from time to time other prospects will be This is "IT" a strictly up-to-date coat and hat!
