Requirements Changed for Graduation From Standard High School
New Arrangement of Courses Helps Students Prepare for College
Changes in requirements for graduation from accredited four-year high schools have been announced by the state board of education. The changes are to go into effect with the class of 1926.
To simplify the problem of organ living a course of study for the high school student, the courses of the curriculum have been arranged into six groups, namely, English, French, mathematics, foreign language science, vocational and fine arts. An accredited high school must maintain at least five of these groups. Fifteen units of work selected according to the planned plan must be successfully completed before graduation. New requirements are
Two majors of three units each. The first major to be in English, and the second major from one of the remaining groups. Two minors of two units each. The first minor in social science, unless social science has been selected as the second major, and the second minor from one of the remaining groups. One-half unit may be studied by one United States student. The remaining four and one-half units may be selected from any one or more of the six groups.
The student is allowed much latitude in the choice of courses in that he may select freely one major, one minor, and four and one-half units not prescribed. No student can graduate from courses in at least four of the six groups.
These changes were made in an effort to help the high school student better prepare himself for college. George O. Foster, registrar, said that new requirements would not be strictly enforced with regard to entrance in the University until the Fall semester of 1927.

New Motor Is Installed in Marvin Laboratories
The new Powell leverage motor which was presented to the School of Engineering by the A. L. Powell Power Company of Quanwq, Oklas, has arrived, and is being installed in the mechanical laboratories for experimentation work. The motor comes a permanent addition to the laboratory laboratories, and will be replaced from year to year by new models.
Testing work was commenced Monday, it was announced by Dean P. F. Walker. Students of mechanical classes will conduct fuel measurements and brake tests, Homer Dedo e26, and M. C. Huffman e26, will use these tests and students will be thoroughly studied and tested by the engineers, and the results will be reported to the manufacturing officials. An insufficiency of laboratory materials at the factory must be the motor to be sent here for testing.
Rat Tissue Life Prolonged
Transplanted Cartilage Cells Continue to Divide
(Colman Service)
St. Louis, March 3—Immorality of the human body is forecast in experiments of Dr. Leo Loeb at Washington University here. Having successfully transplanted tumors and kept them alive infinitely, Doctor Loeb has turned his attention to healthy tissues with some success.
Cartilage, p. primarily termed gristeal,
has been grafted from one rat to
another, and the transplant has not
proliferated itself also, but it has
"The transplants must be made to a host of the same species," said Doctor Loeb in detailing his experiments to date. "Usually grungy tissue cannot be cultivated in this way, but care must be taken in the current and it responds to the process."
*Cartilage cells, implanted in another individual, continue to divide for two and a half years. Its釉质 growth—transplating again to a third rat—the age of the cartilaginous tissue can be increased to five years. This is much greater than the age which rats usually attain.
"Cartilage, at least, is potentially nmortal."

J. L. Bennett, fs'12, Now Tests Hercules Powder
Bennett, while attending the University, was enrolled in the department of chemistry. Following his chemical course, he joins the regular laboratory staff of the Independent Powder Company and was engaged in explosives research until the end of the Independent and Hercules powder companies in 1914 when he became an employee of the latter concern.
James L. Bennett, f12, is at present in charge of acid and nitro-glycerol operations and experiments for the Company in Washington, Delaware.

New Reservoir Will Insure Safety of Hill Should Fire Threaten
Reserve Supply to Hold 300.000 Gallons. Enough to Man Six Hose at Once
With the addition of the new 300, 600 gallon capacity reservoir to the water plant of the University, the campus will be fairly adequately protected in a serious fire, according to the department independent of buildings and grounds.
At the present time, only enoug
water can be pumped from the city
mains to run three hose lines at a
pressure of about 110 pounds, but
with the reserve supply in the reservoir there will be enough water to man six hose lines for over five hours. The new pump that is being used is guaranteed to handle 1500 gallons of water minute at a pressure of 120 pounds.
The reservoir will be kept full, according to Mr. Ball, by a system of special valves which will open when the water gets below a certain level. The water in the reservoir will be fresh at all times, since the location of the inlet and outlet valves insures a constant circulation of the water.
Potter lake was originally built for fire protection, but there has never been any occasion to use it. "The anarchies of the past have done their job," Potter lake has been done away with since the water would have to be forced through the mains that are used to carry drinking water, and the containers had to clean at least said, Mr. Bull.
University Post Office Has Big Receipts Yearly
The cement for the top of the reservoir will be poured soon, as the weather is more favorable at the present time than it has been.
In another five years the business at the University postoffice will probably necessitate two clerks instead of the present one, according to R. C. Abraham, postal clerk. In another five years the postoffice business of the past year to be $29,388.01. When the receipts total $25,600, another man will be provided.
There have been 45,000 parcel post packages mailed at the postoffice the past year, 3,088 of which were for business. 621 C., O. D., 1,695 money orders issued and 300 money orders paid. An approximate average of 75 laundry bags were mailed annually.
The majority of the mail handled through the Hill postoffice is addressed to towns in the Missouri valley.
"I expect to have a rush of Sour Owl mail the latter part of this week," Mr. Abraham said this morning, "Usually about 100 copies are mailed out but at the time of the Lunacy, over 200 copies were mailed."
Dr. Kay to Speak at Smoker
Dr. George F. Kay, professor of geology and dean of the college of liberal arts and sciences at the University of Iowa to Smoker to be held Friday evening at the University Club.

WHY do they pay $1,000,000 for a painting? Looks! Why does the waiter put the parsley on the fish? Looks! Why does the groom wear a dress suit to the wedding after the bride is all signed up? Looks! Is there anything that matters where looks don't count? We pause for a reply, merely adding that for looks there is nothing like Society Brand Clothes. Have you seen the new Romleys and the new Glenmoor Checkes?
