He was also a delegate from the Carnegie Museum of Natural History, with Dr. W. S. Holland and Dr. Hugo Kahl. More than 1,000 delegates represented a membership of over 20,000 entomologists from 33 foreign countries and every state in the union. The last congress was held in Zuric in 1925. The many collections of insects are located in Roberts Hall on the campus. The specimens which occupy over 3,000 cases, 19x16, can be estimated at between one and two millions in number. Harold made the most of his opportunity, as his massive collection was open to all members of the congress. He was given a private room equipped with microscopes 30 that he might study the Lepidop-tera, on which he is specializing. His collections of butterflies and moths were among the largest produced, covering a very extensive field. The next entomology congress will be held in Paris in 1932. ¡»rmen Christian, sophomore I member of Zeta Phi fraternity, 't to summer school at the Flor-State College for Women at khassee.

Seniors to Meet Wednesday The senior class of the University of Miami will meet Wednesday, October 10, at 12:30 in the social halL All seniors are asked to be present, as important business will be discussed. “Conference Plan” of Study Being: Tried As an Experiment Rollins College, Winter Park.! Fla., is attempting a new kind of educational system called the “con- j ference plan.” This plan was worked out by Dr. Hamilton Holt after much study of colleges and their educational methods. He be- j lieves that it will eliminate the faults of the present college edu-. cation. These faults, in his opinion, are, chiefly, lack of understanding and comradeship between professor and student. In order to overcome the first he proposes that the students exchange their thoughts with the professor and “quiz” him because he is older and more experienced. Dr. Holt believes that in this way the professor can transmit his enthusiasm and give the student a scholarly attitude toward study. The schedule arranged for these conferences is correspondingly unique. The morning and afternoon are divided into two two-hour classes. General subjects will be studied in the morning, while the afternoon will be spent in field study and physical training. In the evening the students’ time is free except when some school activity takes place. Sometimes the work for the year is assigned at the beginning and the student is allowed to complete this as quickly as he wishes and to leave the class for more advanced work, or work in courses in which he is not so proficient. Dr. Holt thinks that in this wuy the brilliant student will not be held back by the rest of the class Regular examinations are the only usual things about this plan. By these changes, Dr. Holt hopes to bring the students and professors together on the same basis as they would be if they were both working for their livings. Attendance in classes is not compulsory j Too many absences bring about dismissal just as if the student were employed. As an added inspiration to work and study, Dr. Holt plans to make Rollins a beautiful college by a specific architectural plan. Classes ! will meet out of doors when possible, which is nearly all the time. Later he hopes that Rollins will be called “The Open-Air College of America.” IBIS EDITORS TO BE CHOSEN Juniors and Sophomores to Be Given First Choice of Positions Organization ef the editorial staff of the University yearbook, Ibis, will take place within the next week, according to announcement made by Pauline Spofford, editor-in-chief. Positions, will be made and confirmed by the class of ’30 and application« for these positions should state the class, experience and position desired by; the applicant. In awarding positions juniors j and sophomores will be given preference as far as possible, but other students interested in the work may compete. Experience in journalism is not necessary to secure a place on the staff. Editors and assistant editors will be chosen for the following departments: Assistant to the editor-in-chief, statistics, organizations, picture, feature, athletics, calendar, art and conservatory. Applications for positions may be put in the mail box of the registrar’s office. Applicants are asked to state class, former experience, position desired and if convenient to submit a sample of their work. Art editors to take charge of the layouts and section plates are asked to see the editor immediately in regaid to submitting a drawing carrying out the spirit of Pan-Americanism, to which the Ibis will be dedicated. U. of M. Is Established According to Dr. B. F. Ashe duct the University Orchestra Vigilance Committee Elects Court Officials The vigilance committee, com-; posed of men from the sophomore class, have held their first meeting, at which officers were elected, the committee organized into a 1 court, and laws formulated by which the freshman must abide. All violators of the various laws set down will be brought before the court, of which Gaylord Williams is judge; Grant Harris, prosecuting attorney; Wright Peabody, clerk; Robert Downes, sergeant-at-arms, and John McClelland, h¡3 deputy. This court will present their laws to the freshman class at their first meeting next Thursday at 10:30. The “Rat” caps, which every freshman will be required to wear, have been ordered and will be on sale within a few days. All freshmen are asked to take heed and beat this in mind. If they don’t— oh, boy! First Tryouts for Men’s Glee Club Held by Director At the first tryouts held by the director of the University of Miami Glee Club Friday afternoon over 35 male voices were tested. As was expected, there was much competition, which augurs well for its success. There is much vocal talent among the men of the school, and through constant rehearsals, which will be held every day at 3:30 except Saturday, an almost perfect musical organization can be realized. The University Melody Boys, composed of Walter Svehla, Bob Stanton and an accompanist, will be one of the features of the Glee Club. The Melody Boys have made a reputation by playing and singing in and about Miami. Their engagements have included several bookings with the Olympia Theater. Among those who were present at the first tryouts in the auditorium of the University were Albert B. Franklin. Jerry Abbott, Earl Billings, Rollo Karket, Arthur Lang, Harry Neham, Paul Eckels, Gene Cohen, Carrington Gramling, Onas Brooks, Charles English, George Glassford, Harold Patterson, Louis Cohen, Harold Farkas, Charles Kirkwood, Wil-liam Evanson, Arthur Marx, Richard Pomoroy, Ronald Willey, Carl Starace and Guy Mitchell.
