The sophomores of 1925 are very
glad to be the first (class) to receive
this honor. They like the custofn, and
are very sure, that succeeding classes
will be pleased. ' ' ' .
"Diplomas have been ordered and a
simple, program "hias ' been planned,
which will be given sometime during
carnniencemetlt week.
Though :'there is a large class this
year, few will graduate on account of
irregularities. The names of those
who will probably receive diplomas
follow:

all gave evidence of concen-
d effort and intensive thought on
part of the contestant. All show-
ft, also, a determination to place this
phase of college work on a more
popular plane with the various stud-
ent bodies, and it is the concensus of
opinion among college people that the
time is ripe for public acknowledge-
ment of such effort, acknowledgement
similar to that being accorded to ath-
letes.
Roy Ward, a junior in John Tarle-
ton College, won first place in boys'
contest, while Mr. Vivrac of W,eath-
erford College won second place. The
winning oration was "Marriage and
Divorce Evils of the United States."
and showed clearly and succinctly
"The Impending Danger of the Imme-
diate Future." Mr. Vivrac used' as
his subject "Carry On" which partook
of a moral tone.

Williams of the
North, Texas Junior Agricultural Col-
lege at Arlington,- vice president rff
the Texas Junior College Association,
to be the two most pressing topic^ for
discussion by the.'members .of hii or-
ganization, who- opened their annual
meeting with a banquet at the Uni-
y^rsjty; Glub- fe,ere Thursday night, «
' Dean irr xhoniks" Davis of Jofin Tar-
leton -Agricultural College, Stephen-
ville, opened the discussion on stand-
ards, of entrance and college work by
talking on- the sub-topic of "How
Should Students-Entering From Non-
accredited High Schools be Admitted
to the High School Division of the
Junior College?"
In order to arrive at a possible so-
lution in regard to such entrance, Mr.
Davis sent questionnaires to princi-
pals of several leading high schools,
asking their requirements in regard
to entrance from nonaffiliated schools,
he said.
Most students are admitted by the
high schools from nonaccredited
schools upon individual approval and;
not' ,by examination, the question
naires revealed.
A similar procedure is followed u|
admitting students from nonaccredit"
ed high schools to the high school <h- . ^
vision of most junior colleges, except 11 yV?/
that examination is universally i<-|f«i
quired' before students are admittttU , 'I'JlleCon
to the senior grades and the admission. '3«.pre ,, J
to lower grades is conditional.
In the general discussion that fof-JfSu Q'Kf. jf, (
lowed Mr. Davis' talk, opinion diff«i<«"
ed as to whether the entrance requii i F-0 t,4 out
ments should be made more stringent Hinfl 11fit,
and it was agreed to appoint a eoin - L ^ H<u£
mittee before the end of the present I \tibo wbtt
meeting, to investigate the problciijF^IJt/JnifiS
further and make a specific recom 7L "Mui

State to leave a similar problem con' [out. at r^coikji
fronting more than 1,000 nonaffiliatt ([to
high schools, to the school authoritii .Uti
and suggested that the solution fotf1i HciUjuJW f
the junior colleges come from amoii^
themselves.
