Eldridge, Di rector of resident instruction at the College of Agriculture and Home Economics. The program, available to freshmen who enroll in agri- Harvard Records Enrollment Jump On 'Snap' Course Cambridge, Mass.

The course was forced to move to a larger hall when 417 Harvard students signed up for it. According to Sar gent Kennedy, Harvard regis trar, the course is now the fifth largest in the University. Last spring, Kennedy said, History 134a did not even make the list of the "top ten" in popularity among Har vard men. In an article last May, Time magazine listed History 134a at Harvard in a story about the most notable "snap," "cinch" and "gut" courses at American universities. culture and plan to obtain a second degree in law, in ef fect shortens by one academic year the previous time re quired to earn both degrees, Dr. Eldridge explained. This is made possible by "inter locking" credits earned dur ing the fourth year and hon ored by both colleges, he con tinued. During the first three years, the students meet all specific requirements for the general agriculture curriculum. In the fourth year which in acuali ty is also his first year in the College of Law he takes courses which are electives toward completion of the B.S. in agriculture. These same courses are pre requisites for basic and ad vanced law courses offered during the last two years of the six-year sequence. Stu dents still are required to ap ply for admission to the Col lege of Law and required to take a legal aptitude examina tion. The program actually has undergone an informal bat successful "trial run" involv ing one student who expressed the desire to earn both de g r e e s in six consecutive years, Dr. Eldridge noted. Faculty members of both col leges approved the waiving of then-existing requirements so that Gil Grady, a I960 gradu ate of the College of Agricul ture, now enrolled in Law Col lege, could follow what is bas ically the arrangement now approved, which will be car ried in the official University catalogue of course offerings for 1964-65. Dr. Eldridge said features of the six-year combined pro gram of agriculture and law include these modifications of former requirements of the College of Agriculture and Home Economics: Course requirements for a major in general agricul ture or general agricultural economics are reduced from 40 to 30 hours. Completion of a minimum of 15 hours of English, com pared to the former require ment of eight hours. Completion of 98 hours of work acceptable for a B.S. degree with a scholastic aver age at least equal to that re quired for gradutaio...n Not more than six hours of certain highly specialized courses in agriculture can be included in the 98 hours of courses in the College of Ag and Home Ec. A statement prepared by a special University study com mittee on the new program says: knowledge of the tech nical aspects of agricultural production is highly desirable for lawyers in farming areas, who deal with the problems of leases, mortgages, farm transfers and estate plan ning." "Agricultural knowledge Is also helpful to law graduates who work for commercial banks or cooperative agencies extending farm credit, or for firms engaged in processing and marketing farm prod ucts, or in selling farm sup plies to farmers." The six-year program is es pecially designed for students "who wish to capitalize on their experience, training, and interest in agriculture in pursuing a career in the field of law," the statement concluded.

Columbia's Dean Cuts Dorm Hours After Riot Attemp New York, NY (CPS) -David B. Truman, dean of Columbia College, announced last Thursady night that visit ing hours for women in the dorms aTter the next two home football games would be cancelled because of an ear lier attempted panty-raid. Addressing almost 600 male students, Dean Truman said, "We are determined that it is part of our obligation . . . to see that you learn, if pos sible, the maturity of self control In an explosive sit uation such as Sunday night (the panty-raid)." He said that the Sunday demonstration, and particu larly the throwing of cans and bottles from dormitory windows, indicated that the level of maturity required for extension of dormitory visit ing hours had not been reached by Columbia College students. He emphasized that he agreed with President Grayson Kirk that visiting privileges should be linked with the avoidance of riots. E E., M.E.: PhD In Chem., Ch.B.
