At a recent meeting cf tbe uni

sented by a faculiy committee.
Neither wa adopted, but the
chancellor was empowered to ap

may consider further the two pro
posals already made or may draw
up a new one of it own. In any
event, the finding of tbe com

the senate favors raiet when
they are properly conducted n
the grounds that "they belp to
promote a university consciousnr
in the strident body and provide
tbe only occasion aside from ath
letic contests in which all students
can meet on a common ground."
As a means of tempering school
spirit, provision is made for an ad
visory committee composed of
from three to five members oi the
faculty, to oe appointed by the
chancellor, and tbe president? of
five student organizations, the
Student council. Innocent. Mnrtar
Board, Corn Cobs, and Tassels.
The rep-Mt of tbe faculty com

as follows-
"1. Delegation ti Authority:

2. Powers and Duties of the
Student Council.
The council in consultation with
dean of student affairs shall enact
rules and regulations for approv
ing university rallies and for hold

vision. But before such rules and
regulations msy become effective
concurrence thereto must be se
cured from tbe university senate
or from a committee designated ey
