Cochrane, '30, president. " T h e council will discuss matters of vital importance to till thinking students," Cochrane said. Cochrane is the representative of the eastern New York State district of the National field council which includes Colgate university, Hamilton cool lege, St. Lawrence university, Union college, Rensselaer Polytechnic institute, and Columbia university. If tentative plans, materialie, a conference of the student Young Men's and Young Women's Christian associations will be convened at Slate college sometime next month, according to Cochrane, "Social Relations and Race Problems, two topics jf genuine interest to all prospective :eachers will be discussed,' Cochrane stud. "In this connection we hope to iring a battery of speakers for the three day conference, prominent among whom will be Norman Thomas, former candidate for prcsilency and mayor of New York city, and Mordecai Johnson, president of Howard university, the largest Negro university university in America. Stricter enforcement of sophomore rules for freshmen is promised by the sophomores for the second, semester, according to George P. Rice, president. A special rule enforcement committee for the women was appointed at the meeting Tuesday. It consists of Gertrude Cora, chairman, Mildred Smith, Virginia Hawkins, Vera Burns, Ellen Dincen, and Audrey Flowers. Members of the class will report observed infractions of the rules to the committee which will, in turn, report the names and offences to Myskania for punishment or warning. A meeting of the men was conducted Wednesday to consider the Y.M.C.A.

The majority of the freshmen men have taken the matter in the right spirit. It is the women of the class who will have to be watched," Rice said. The sophomore-freshman rivalry has not been so keen this first semester, Thorley DuRose, freshman president, believes. There have been attempts by both classes to find their opponents' banners, but the searches have been unavailing. The class banners have been turned over to the women and will remain in their possession until Moving-Up day unless they are found by members of the rival classes.
