only one program should be made,
but there was a difference of opin- 1 necessary sounding
ion in the type and size of pro- ' ‘ '
gram to be printed. After a
lengthy discussion the decision was
reached that the program pres
ently planned was inadequate and
a revision was necessary.
Plans were made for a sub-com
mittee to meet with Dean Harring
ton to decide on the amount of
space which will be necessary to
adequately cover the activities of
All-College Day. The R. V. repre
sentatives were asked to meet with
Colonel Becker to see if a revision
of the presently planned program
was acceptable to the Ross Vol
unteers. After these groups meet,
plans will be made for the print
ing of an enlarged program.
Before adjourning the all-college
day committee decided to have an
other meeting on Wednesday, Jan
uary 26, at 5 p.m. in Dean Bar
low’s office.

ber of the committee for consider
ation. As an aid to those students

lege regulations governing auto
