Sophomore Women May
Be Deprived btudent
Council Membership
After an examination of the Con
stitution of the Student Council, it
has been found that the Sophomore
women are to be deprived representa
tion in the Student Council next fall.
Article IV, Section 4 of this con
stitution states that the sophomores
who shall be non-voting members
shall be the highest man and highest
woman officer of the freshman class
chosen at the second semester class
election.
The present freshman class has
but one officer, the president, who
was elected in February. The class
has not met to elect other officers.
Although non-voting membership on
the Student Council does not directly
affect its actions the sophomore wom
en will be denied the honor of re
presentation next fall.
When questioned on the situation
the freshman president stated he was
uncertain as to what action would
be taken. He is not sure whether
a meeting will be called or the mat
ter handled in some other manner.
Tet Muaical Talent
The common belief that Negroes
have a natural talent for music is be
ing tested by a senior in the school
of Education at the University of
Arkansas. The Seashore tests for
musical ability were given to a group
of Negro students and the results
were compared with the scores made
by white students in the psychology
classes or the university, it was
found that as a rule Negroes seem to
have about average musical talent,
except that their feelings for rhy
thm and sense of harmony are espec
ially strong.

College men, undergraduates and
alumni alike have been enthusias
tic in their enodrsument of the plans
just announced for the erection of a
suitable national memorial to the
late Walter Camp, whose fame as the
"Father of American Football" is
secure on every campus in the Un
ited States.
Under arrangements completed by
the National Collegiate Athletic As
sociation, working in close cooper
ation with Yale University, the Wal
ter Camp Memorial is to be a tribute
not from Yale Alumni alone, but
from every university, college and
preparatory school where football is
now played. The memorial is to
take the form of a monumental gate
way at tl entrance to the Yale Ath
letic Fields at New Haven, which are
to be renamed Walter Comp Fields
in his honor by the Yale Corpor
ation.
Plans for this unique undertaking,
which will be the first time in his
tory that all American colleges have
combined in a joint campaign, call
for the participation of 458 colleges.
Scores of "prep" schools will also
have a part in raising the money for
the memorial. Upon bronze tablets
set into the walls flanking the gate
way will appear, grouped by states,
the names of all universities, colleges.
and schools which have contributed to
the memorial.
The memorial gateway, together
with the imposing approach and en
closure, has been designed by John
W. Cross, Yale 1900, of New York.
Architectural drawings were ap
proved last week by the Yale corpor
ation. The cost will be approximate
ly $300,000. Half of this amount is
to be subscribed by Yale alumni and
the remaining half raised by the Na
tional Collegiate Atretic Association
on behalf of all the other universi
ties, colleges, and preparatory
schools.
In commenting on the significance
of the proposed memorial, President
James R. Angell of Yale said:
"Walter Camp was an outstanding
figure at Yale and in the nation. He
.was a strong factor in building up
our athletic policy, and through his
personal character exerted a splen
did influence in developing a spirit
of sound sportsmanship among young ;
men here and elsewhere. Yale had
planned to erect a memorial to Wal
ter Camp, but was more than grati
fied than ever when other institu
tions manifested a desire to partici
pate in a tribute to his memory.
The present plan will provide a na
tional memorial to a national fig
ure." The Water Camp Fields are locat
ed on the outskirts of New Haven
about a mile distant from Yale Uni
versity. They occupy an elevated
plateau with Derby Avenue, the
Dancing School
Laarm to Dane far $5.00.
Opa Diflf
Franzmathes Academy
101S N Slract
main highway from New Haven, bi
secting the Fields about their cen
ter. The character of the terrace
lends itself wonderfully to the type
of memorial decided upon. On the
north side of Derby Avenue are what
are known as the North Fields in
which are located the Football Bowl,
the Club House, and the Tennis
Courts; on the south side are what
are known as the South Fieds in
which are located the Baseball Dia
mond and 'he Cinder Track. En
trances to the north and south fields
from Derby Avenue are about the
center of the plateau.
The plan is to convert that part
of Derby Avenue where it crosses
the elevated ground and separates
the north from the south fields into
an ornamental mall. In front of the
entrances for a distance of one
hundred and twenty feet Derby
Avenue will be widened. At the en
trance to the north field directly in
front of the Yale Bowl will be
erected a lofty massive stone arch
way 110 feet in width and 46 feet in
heighth. Over the arched entrance
the inscription "Walter Camp Fields"
will be carved in stone. Extending
from this massive arch to the brow
of the elevated ground on either side
for a distance of 400 feet will be a
low ornamental stone wall in keep
ing with the character of the mas
sive arched entrance.
Similar treatment for the en
trance to the south fields on the oth
er side of Derby Avenue may be car
ried out at a later date by Yale Uni
versity at its own expense.
The committee appointed by the
National Collegiate Athletic Asso
ciation has undertaken to raise one
half of the amount estimated to be
required to erect the Walter Camp
Memorial. The campaign will af
ford an opportunity to every univer
sity and college in the country to
participate in the memorial to the
memory of the man who did so much
to make American Football what it
ia tnAav. This mmmittpp which war
appointed by Gen. Palmer E. Pierce, j ES
president of the National Collegiate i EE
Athletic Association is headed by E. ,
K. Hall of Dartmouth, for many j
years chairman of the football rules! HE
committee. In addition to six mem
bers at large, the committee has on
it the chairman of each of the dis
trict committees which have assum
ed responsibility for raising the
money from the individual institu
tions in their respective sections: The
committee is composed of E. K. Hall,
