Student Body President Gives New Year Policy Mr. Franklin Parson, president of the student body, in a talk before the student body recently set forth the principal ideas and program for student activities during the rest of the school year. Mr. Parsons presented the question as to whether the University should abolish or uphold the honor system and in reference to this matter stated, “Spasmodic efforts to uphold the honor system are futile and abolishing this system would be far better than disregarding it.” To advertise the University of Miami as a place w-orthy of a student's time was one of the plans offered to the University. He suggested that the sororities and fraternities make special efforts to become better acquainted with students of Miami High and that they extend more frequent invitations to them for social functions, with a view to centering their attention on the University as a possible college for enrollment after their graduation. Mr. Parsons continued with a discussion of thé spring sport’s program.

The Prom committee is holding frequent meetings for the purpose of completing arrangements for the affair.

In past years Sen-! iors have been admitted free of charge but Dr. Ashe believes that because the Senior class is so large this year it would be feasible fo have all prom-trb.tters pay for tickets.
