Twenty-five More Good Stu dents Receive their Reword TERMS OH WHJCH HONOR IS GRANTED Elections Will Hereafter be Held at Easter Time. Even the usual Friday interest in convocation exercises was consider ably Increased -.yesterday by the an nouncement that the names of the twenty-flve aoniors fortunato enough to fall heirs to. membership in Phi Beta Kappa would be read after the musical program. The Phi Beta Kappa elections from the class of 1903 were made upon 'the basis of required sub ject, according to tho rule of the so ciety adopted two years ago.

The executive committee Is empow ered to .modify the requirements- for the next two years In such a way that they may become effective gradually."

Besides the election of twenty-flve Bonlors, six of whom grad uate Monday, tho society elected Its own officers, as follows: L. W. Taylor, president; Roscoo Pound, ylco-presldent; Louise Pound, corresponding secretary; F. E. Clom entB, recording secretary; Miss Edith Hlgglns, assistant secretary; L. E. Aylsworth, treasurer. The term of tho secretary was ex tended from one year to five, which practically makes it permanent. The ofllce of assistant secretary Is a new one and was inaugurated In order to give the assistant registrar a place among the ofllcers. 'Her position In the office lessens the difficulty In look ing up the names and grades of can didates. The term of office holds for flvo years. The plan of electing once a year will be continued, but the election will hereafter take place Just prior to the Easter vacation, and the names of those chosen will be announced at the .last chapel exercises before the vaca tion, Instead of preyious to the mid winter commencement. Dr. Ward Receives Request for Departmental Suggestions. Dean Ward haB Just received from tho University of Toulouse, France, a request for his publications and sug gestions upon tho Bubject of fresh water biology. Before coming to the University, Dr. Ward was ongaged in the Btudy of fresh water llfo, and had visited all the largo marine stations of Europe In tho Investigation of that subject, besides drafting many plans fortnterprlses of this type which have been undertaken by the government. The change of his field of active work to tho prairie lands of Nebraska did not, aa might perhaps have been ex pected, result in his abandonment of this line of research, for his summers have been spent in tho sorvlce of tho United States fish commission and oc cupied Ijy the study of fresh water llfo. He has published considerable material upon this topic, and now has In the hands of the government print ers a work, collaborated with Profes sor Richard, of tho University of Michigan, upon "Methods arid Prob lems of Fresh Water Biology." It Is his work along this line which has produced the very complimentary re quest mentioned above and reaching him through a letter from Dr. Louis Roulo, which wo have been permitted to reproduce in translation as follows: University of Toulouse, 29 January, 1903. Dear Friend and Colleague: Permit me to make an appeal to your courtesy. A generous donor has endowed for tho University of Tou Ioubo a station for the study of fish culture, which I am going to arrange for the scientific investigation of fresh water biology. I am already partially acquainted with the magnificent work accomplished by you along this line, and shall be vory grateful for any as sistance you may render me. I shall be very glad to receive such of your publications those ok your laboratory, the planB and photographs, the models of apparatus: for the Incubation of sal mon and aloes as you may be kind enough to send me. I thank you In advance, and will send you in exchange our publications 'and our specifications. Be kind enough, my dear friend and colleague, to accept my most cordial sentiments. DR. LOUIS ROULE.
