Hereafter, the examinations will be given only in September and February. Tentatively, one is scheduled for April 14 to fill in the gap. Plans for the annual Agnes Moore Fryberger Sing, to be held May 11 on the steps of the administration Building, have recently been announced by John Young, Chairman of the Progress Commission. State Bar Exams On Way Out, Maybe Elimination of State bar exam- University Alumnus And Trustee Gains Office After Vote Is Tied At -Five All Stamm further stated that the loss now actually amounted "to about $3500 which was in actual currency, $31,500 of the amount stolen having been in checks which are non-negotiable: Almost all of the checks," he added, "have been traced." The contents of the vault were covered entirely by insurance. Police, earlier this week, told the Louisville Times that they believed tt.e thieves used a pass key to get through the three doors into the room where the vault is. They ruled out all possibiliity of the doors having been left unlocked. Every window and door was found to be intact and there was no indication that any second floor window had been used to gain admittance. The door of the vault was broken and the safe was opened by knocking off the combination. An insurance adjuster claimed that the work on the safe clearly indicated the operation of "professionals." "The safe," he said "is probably one of the best on the market, and could be cracked by no mere amateur." The robbers were seen momentarily by Miss Eleanor Turner, secretary to the President, when she went downstairs from her office on the second floor of the Administration QUilding to investigate the noise on the floor beneath, "One of the men," Miss Turner, claimed, "was quite young, and called the other "Joe". Miss Turner went back to her office to call the police, but by the time they arrived, the men had escaped.

Votes In Proposal To Join National Student Association, 9-3 By a vote of 9-3, the University Student Council formally accepted a proposal that it affiliate with the National Student Association, an organization of student councils in colleges of the United States. The action was taken at the last regular meeting of the USC last Tuesday night. The decision included a pro-viso that the University pay all expenses accruing from the affilaition, including a $300 annual dnes fee and a $250 traveling expense for sending two delegates to a National Convention every year. The University administration has accepted this expense, the Council reported. According to members of the Council, the vote was taken after brief discussion on the issue. Only a few opinions were voiced, almost all of them favorable. Bob Delahanty, Social Commission Chairman, spoke for action, pointing out tha:t the University could get "name bands" for dances more easily and inexpensively if the NSA handled it. Almost a year of debate proceeded the move, the initial action having been taken in April, 1947, when the affiliation was first proposed to the Liberal Arts Student Council. At that time the L. A. Student Council passed the NSA question on to the USC because it felt that "it would affect the whole University.' Lengthy discussions followed in USC meetings through-out the summer months and in October, having come to no decision, the USC' sent five delegates to Memphis at University expense to attend a regional conference of NSA members. In January, the National president of NSA visited the University of Louisville and spoke to the USC members on the subject of affiliation. The 9-3 vote was a simple majority of a quorum of the USC members, which is a simple majority of the total number of voting members on the Council. Natl. Student Body Costly, ldealistic.Reiected by U. of K. University of Kentucky's Student Government Association rejected a proposal that it become affiliated with the National Student Association last Monday night by a margin of 19-7. The assembly departed from its usual method of voting and chose the secret ballot "in order to permit Assemblymen to vote their feelings without fear of reprisal from their party,' and SGA official explained. Claude Sprow~s, SGA president, said that the proposal was rejected because "affiliation w~th the NSA would be to expensiv~ and the organization was too Following each basic lecture, the speaker will be available for private conferences. The vote apparently ended a long fight to determine if SGA would join with NSA, an organization that in the course of the discussion was called "everything from a service organization to a communist outfit.'' · Collegiate Women Are Better Wives And Home Assets New Brunswick, N. J.-Feb. 16-( I.P.)- A college-trained women who marries is more useful to her family and community than she would have been without a college education, a survey of the class of 1922, the first class to graduate from New Jersey College for Women, has revealed. Survey Made In a surv' ey made in connection with the 25th anniversary of the pioneer class of '22, a majority of the married women of the 46 active members of the class agreed that the "family and the community benefited, indirectly but definitely, through the college experience which stimulated and developed the ability to think clearly and fairly, fostered the adoption of new ideas, sympathy and understanding with thll difference of others, and the ability to hold judgment in abeyance and to evaluate the choices life has to offer.'' Can be better leaders Evaluating their college careers in terms of benefits to family and community, married women cited as other rewards of their higher education: ability to act as a leader, better understanding of the problems of their children and of the teachers of their children made possihle by a psychological and general educational background, opportunity to take a more active part in all social service groups because of training in public speaking as well as an ability to measure values, and a sense of security afforded by a college education in the event of a family emergency. Can entertain better Also among answers received were the ability to entertain more graciously and to provide ·a higher standard for the home, confidence gained in own abilities since many doors of community work were opened only to college trained women, more poise and efficiency, civic and welfare work offered to the college trainedfostered many firm friendships which serve to provide a varied and cosmopolitan influence in the home, breadth· and depth of interests which affected both home and community, and the opportunity to be on the same mental plane with the collegetrained husband. Figures show that 32 members of the original class of 54 students are married and they have had 69 children. The Sing was established in May, 1939 as a tribute to Mrs. Fryberger who, became of poor health, was foreed to retire from her position as Music instructor at the University, a post she held for eight years.

' In an exciting photo-finish vote by the Board of Aldermen, Charles P. Farnsley, University of Louisville alumnus and member of the Board of Trustees was elected Mayor pro-tem of the city of Louisville Tuesday evt?_ning. Voting in an open meeting in the crowded aldermanic chambers, five of the aldermen present chose Thomas Graham and the other five picked Farnsley. Giving his vote in the tied race, Aldermanic President Dann C. Byck proclaimed in a loud voice, "I cast my vote for Charles P. Farnsley." Much cheering, clapping and booing followed Byck's dramatic announcement. Alderman Specht, who introduced the name of Graham into the voting, declared that the vote was not valid as a majority of the aldermanic votes is required, not the majority of votes of those present. Therefore, he held, there must be at least seven votes for the person elected. President Byck hammered with his gavel and proclaimed Farnsley to be the Mayor pro-tern. of Louisville, thus ignoring Speck's outburst. Many walks of life were represented in the aldermanic chambers including quite a few U. of L. students and some faculty members. Many students bore large placards calling for the election of Farnsley. State Assembly Considers Bills For Rural Meds By Imogene Fairchild There has been a lot of discussion in the General Assembly concerning medical education. The prime objective is supposedly to increase the number of rural doctors. In order to accomplish this there have been three outstanding bills brought before the Committee on Kentucky Statutes. One of the bills proposes to give the University of Kentucky $150,000 to send qualified pre-medical students to medical schools elsewhere between July 1, 1948 and June 30, 1950. Expenses for these students would be underwritten at the rate of $1,000 a year each. In return the ~tudents would be under obligation to pratice in rural Kentucky at the rate of one year for each year of financial help received. Under those conditions, $150,000 could be spent to give 75 students two years of medical schooling. 10 Million For U. of K. Senator Blanton is sponsoring a bill to create a $10,000,000 medical school at the Univ~rsity of Kentucky by issuing revenue bonds against State cash which, by law, can 6e invested in securities. This proposal has met with disapproval in some quarters. Stated Senator J. Lee Moore: "I believe it is utter height of folly to create a medical school at the University of Kentucky." It has been estimated that another $10,000,000 will be needed to complete the structure. This figure does not cover the cost of a hospital where medical students could get clinical experience. Bill would finance scholarships If the bill sponsored by Senators Butler and McCann is passed, it will provide $150,000 annually for two years to a State Research Commission for the purpose of conducting research in medicine and surgery at U. of. L. J. Verser Conner, Chairman of the Board of Trustees, has said that the money U. of L. would receive under the bill would make it financially possible for the school to provide 10 or 12 new scholarships. Rural practice for aid The Kentucky Medical Association already has ful)ds available through the Medical Scholarship Fund for needy and deserving students a't the University of Louisville School of Medicine. These students would practice one year in rural Kentucky for each year they receive aid. Each bill has met some opposition Governor Earle C. Clements has intervened beJ;ause of the necessity of immediate action before the General Assembly adjourns .. Critics Prize Play_ Cast Without Tryouts "All My Sons,' 1947 Critics Prize l'lay by Arthur Miller, will be cast without tryouts because of extreame demands on the Playhouse. The little Theater obtained the first amateur release after the drama on war-profiteering closed after more than a year on Broad-way, . Joe Keller, the lead, will be portrayed by Roy E. Finnegan, who appeared in 'Julius Caes~' and '"The Land Is Bright." This will · be the third play in which Mr. FDlnegan has been killed, having been shot twice and having stabbed himself once, as "Brutus.'' Farnsley, a native of Louisville, will be 41 on March 28. He is the son of Judge and Mrs. Burrel H. Farneley. He is a graduate of Male High School, 1925; University of Louisville, 1930, LL.B., and took his A.B. degree there in 1942. Besides his university degrees, Farnsley has spent vacations doing graduate work in economics and political science at the University of Louisville, the University of Kentucky, Columbia University in New York City, and at the University of Chicago. In addition, a member of the board of the Louisville Free Public Library. He has been active in promoting the Great Books program and the neighborhood colleges of U. of L. Practiced Since 1930 Farnsley has practiced law here since 1930. In 1932 he formed the firm of Farnsley, Farnsley, and Hottell, successor to the firm of Dallam, Farnsley, and Means, established in 1896. When his father was elected to the bench, the firm became Farnsley, Hottell, and Russell. Later, Russell became dean of ti)e U. of L. Law School. The firm later became Farnsley, Hottel!, and Stephenson, Farnsley also a director in the Bank of St. Helens, Shively Ky. He was a State representative from 1936 to 1940. Farnsley lives at 2116 Confederate Place. He was man1ed in February, 1937, to the former Nancy Carter of Louisville. Their four children are Sally, Anne, Alexander, and Burrel. APO Frat Telfs Pia ns For Benches Benches built by boys banish bare baleful background by beauty. This might well be the story after the Easter holidays. During this time Alpha Phi Omega, the Boy Scout Service Fiaternity, plans to build a number of concrete benches to be placed around the campus. Any fraternity or sorority may finance one or two benches, no more, at the nominal fee of two for $5.00. The greek letters of the organization will be set in the concrete as proof of their part in the venture. Deadline for contributions is March 13. Arrangements can be made through Bill Queen in the CARDINAL Office. One bench has been constructed as a sample for display on Howdy Walk. Alpha Phi Omega is an organization made up of fon11er Boy Scouts. The construction of benches is the first of the organization's service projects, and will be used to raise f!mds for the continuation of their work on Belknap Campus.

The decision included a pro-viso that the University pay all expenses accruing from the affilaition, including a $300 annual dnes fee and a $250 traveling expense for sending two delegates to a National Convention every year. The University administration has accepted this expense, the Council reported. According to members of the Council, the vote was taken after brief discussion on the issue. Only a few opinions were voiced, almost all of them favorable. Bob Delahanty, Social Commission Chairman, spoke for action, pointing out tha:t the University could get "name bands" for dances more easily and inexpensively if the NSA handled it. Almost a year of debate proceeded the move, the initial action having been taken in April, 1947, when the affiliation was first proposed to the Liberal Arts Student Council. At that time the L. A. Student Council passed the NSA question on to the USC because it felt that "it would affect the whole University.' Lengthy discussions followed in USC meetings through-out the summer months and in October, having come to no decision, the USC' sent five delegates to Memphis at University expense to attend a regional conference of NSA members. In January, the National president of NSA visited the University of Louisville and spoke to the USC members on the subject of affiliation. The 9-3 vote was a simple majority of a quorum of the USC members, which is a simple majority of the total number of voting members on the Council. Natl. Student Body Costly, ldealistic.Reiected by U. of K. University of Kentucky's Student Government Association rejected a proposal that it become affiliated with the National Student Association last Monday night by a margin of 19-7. The assembly departed from its usual method of voting and chose the secret ballot "in order to permit Assemblymen to vote their feelings without fear of reprisal from their party,' and SGA official explained. Claude Sprow~s, SGA president, said that the proposal was rejected because "affiliation w~th the NSA would be to expensiv~ and the organization was too Following each basic lecture, the speaker will be available for private conferences. The vote apparently ended a long fight to determine if SGA would join with NSA, an organization that in the course of the discussion was called "everything from a service organization to a communist outfit.'' · Collegiate Women Are Better Wives And Home Assets New Brunswick, N.

' In an exciting photo-finish vote by the Board of Aldermen, Charles P. Farnsley, University of Louisville alumnus and member of the Board of Trustees was elected Mayor pro-tem of the city of Louisville Tuesday evt?_ning. Voting in an open meeting in the crowded aldermanic chambers, five of the aldermen present chose Thomas Graham and the other five picked Farnsley. Giving his vote in the tied race, Aldermanic President Dann C. Byck proclaimed in a loud voice, "I cast my vote for Charles P. Farnsley." Much cheering, clapping and booing followed Byck's dramatic announcement. Alderman Specht, who introduced the name of Graham into the voting, declared that the vote was not valid as a majority of the aldermanic votes is required, not the majority of votes of those present. Therefore, he held, there must be at least seven votes for the person elected. President Byck hammered with his gavel and proclaimed Farnsley to be the Mayor pro-tern. of Louisville, thus ignoring Speck's outburst. Many walks of life were represented in the aldermanic chambers including quite a few U. of L. students and some faculty members. Many students bore large placards calling for the election of Farnsley. State Assembly Considers Bills For Rural Meds By Imogene Fairchild There has been a lot of discussion in the General Assembly concerning medical education. The prime objective is supposedly to increase the number of rural doctors. In order to accomplish this there have been three outstanding bills brought before the Committee on Kentucky Statutes. One of the bills proposes to give the University of Kentucky $150,000 to send qualified pre-medical students to medical schools elsewhere between July 1, 1948 and June 30, 1950. Expenses for these students would be underwritten at the rate of $1,000 a year each. In return the ~tudents would be under obligation to pratice in rural Kentucky at the rate of one year for each year of financial help received. Under those conditions, $150,000 could be spent to give 75 students two years of medical schooling. 10 Million For U. of K. Senator Blanton is sponsoring a bill to create a $10,000,000 medical school at the Univ~rsity of Kentucky by issuing revenue bonds against State cash which, by law, can 6e invested in securities. This proposal has met with disapproval in some quarters. Stated Senator J. Lee Moore: "I believe it is utter height of folly to create a medical school at the University of Kentucky." It has been estimated that another $10,000,000 will be needed to complete the structure. This figure does not cover the cost of a hospital where medical students could get clinical experience. Bill would finance scholarships If the bill sponsored by Senators Butler and McCann is passed, it will provide $150,000 annually for two years to a State Research Commission for the purpose of conducting research in medicine and surgery at U. of. L. J. Verser Conner, Chairman of the Board of Trustees, has said that the money U. of L. would receive under the bill would make it financially possible for the school to provide 10 or 12 new scholarships. Rural practice for aid The Kentucky Medical Association already has ful)ds available through the Medical Scholarship Fund for needy and deserving students a't the University of Louisville School of Medicine. These students would practice one year in rural Kentucky for each year they receive aid. Each bill has met some opposition Governor Earle C. Clements has intervened beJ;ause of the necessity of immediate action before the General Assembly adjourns .. Critics Prize Play_ Cast Without Tryouts "All My Sons,' 1947 Critics Prize l'lay by Arthur Miller, will be cast without tryouts because of extreame demands on the Playhouse.

Finnegan, who appeared in 'Julius Caes~' and '"The Land Is Bright." This will · be the third play in which Mr. FDlnegan has been killed, having been shot twice and having stabbed himself once, as "Brutus.'' Farnsley, a native of Louisville, will be 41 on March 28.

In 1932 he formed the firm of Farnsley, Farnsley, and Hottell, successor to the firm of Dallam, Farnsley, and Means, established in 1896. When his father was elected to the bench, the firm became Farnsley, Hottell, and Russell. Later, Russell became dean of ti)e U. of L. Law School.

APO Frat Telfs Pia ns For Benches Benches built by boys banish bare baleful background by beauty. This might well be the story after the Easter holidays. During this time Alpha Phi Omega, the Boy Scout Service Fiaternity, plans to build a number of concrete benches to be placed around the campus. Any fraternity or sorority may finance one or two benches, no more, at the nominal fee of two for $5.00. The greek letters of the organization will be set in the concrete as proof of their part in the venture. Deadline for contributions is March 13. Arrangements can be made through Bill Queen in the CARDINAL Office. One bench has been constructed as a sample for display on Howdy Walk. Alpha Phi Omega is an organization made up of fon11er Boy Scouts. The construction of benches is the first of the organization's service projects, and will be used to raise f!mds for the continuation of their work on Belknap Campus.
