been appointed to the newly-organ-ized student council -of the college, Ed Killingsworth, president of the college, announced today.
New council members are: Freeland Simms, Richard Snavely, Gqr-ald Bense, Grover Cole, and Ben Southland.
The student council was the first selected under the new constitution of the College of Architecture and Fine Arts, which provides that the student body officers select a list of 12 names and submit it to a faculty committee.

The new council will hold its first meeting today at 4 p.m. in the seminar room of the college. They will plan a social program for the year.
imagination between the two sexes.
“The electroencephalograph is significant,” says Dr. Travis “in that it gives us evidence that the human brain can be spontaneously active without reference to external stimuli. This means that we can have ideas without stimuli.”
Animals send out “waves of thoughts” but infants do not. According to Dr. Travis, it is not possible to measure the waves stimulated by the thoughts of a child until he is 12 years old.
The electroencephalograph, which was invented in 1929 in Jena by Hans Burger, has had practical application in the determination of tumors and lesions.
Electrical pulsations from the brain related to thought have been found to vary from 20 to 300 frequencies as the brain gives off different kinds of currents.

Effect of Fundamentalism On Christianity Explained
“Fundamentalism has raided the precincts of Christianity and assumed control.”
This statement was made by Dr.
Paul R. Helsel. professor of philosophy. in his talk on “Fundamentalism” at the Philosophy Forum in Bowne hall yesterday.
“There was some organized movement against Christianity before the Civil war. but we can date the war as the turning point between the i old and the new. New idealism supplanted the old sanctions, and there was a new and sudden growth of I secularism.”
Dr. Helsel went on to explain some of the changes that took place, j There was a sudden growth of big business with a decrease in the rural districts. The educational system was secularized, and the nation became industrialized, rather than re-I ligious. There was a change in the ! opinion of science, but in 1879. the j church still put down the findings j of men compared to God. and the j people still believed the world was made in six days.
“Naturally,” said Dr. Helsel. “se- deals almost entirely with spiritual-ciarism could not hope to thrive | ness.
Pantella Engle, music instructor.
The program includes: Overture to “Italians in Algeria” by Rossini, “Ballet Divertissement” from Henry VIII by Saint-Saens, “Caucasian Sketches” by Ippolitiff-Ivanoff. and “Prelude” and “Love Death” from Trisan and Isolde by Wagner.
without opposition. This movement against secularization came to be I known as Fundamentalism.”
“The term FunGamentalism originated in the movement beginning in our own city. In 1909. two laymen founded a Bible institution, and set up a trust fund of $300,000. With this money they published a series of 12 booklets, called “The Fundamentals.” The booklets were a concrete expression of social solidarity, lacking up until this time.”
He explained the difference between Fundamentals and Funda- j mentalism. Fundamentals are the principals belonging to Christianity while Fundamentalism is logic pertaining to form, method, and pro-cedeure. It is subordinate to the nature of Christianity.
“There are three contrasts between Fundamentalism and Christianity.” said Dr. Helsel, “but these three can be reduced to one. The nature of Fundamentalism is form and structure. The religion of Jesus ignores form and structure and
