Graduate Named To Succeed Hill
In a move designed to streamline their administrative routine, the General Alumni association announced tha appointment of Edsel Curry to the position of assistant director. On Sept. 1, Mr. Curry will officially assume the desk duties formerly handled by Jess Hill, who will then devota his full time to coaching activi-	--
ties.
In his official capacity as assistant to Arnold Eddy, Curry’s principal function will be to facilitate the admission of athlete-scholars who have signified their desire to enter the university. Since a conference ruling prohibits active recruitment, he will be in a position of one who nerely sits and waits, but once the athlete is in the fold, he will receive assistance from this alumni office. Curry assumed full-time duties on July 1 and had previously served as Hill’s aide on a part-time basis.

Two groups of choral selection* will be presented Wednesday when Dr. Charles C. Hirt directs tho Summer chorus in a noon musical in Bovard auditorium at 12:15.
The first group, devoted to sacred compositions, will include “Lamb of God—Decius, Kyrie, or Lord Have Mercy,” and “Grant Unto Me the Joy of Thy Salvation.”
“The Lamb of God,” Dr. Hirt said, “is a chorale of the 16th century, a quiet devotional, dignified in its simplicity.”
TOMPKINS SINGS “Lord Have Mercy,” T. L. Victoria, is another 16th-century composition with a solo chant for tenor. John Tompkins will sing the solo.
“Last in the sacred group, ‘Grant Unto Me the Joy of Thy Salvation,’ Johannes Brahms, is both a quiet and joyous extolling of God,” Dr. Hirt said.
Combining sacred music with the lighter, secular elements, tha second half of the musical will begin with “Monotone,” a poem, Carl Sandburg, which has been set to music by Normand Lockwood.
ANTHEM RHYTHMIC The last of the secred selections is by the Russian composer Shve-doff, called “Forever Is It Meet,” is described as an exciting anthem in its rhythmic effect.
Another song noted for rhythm, in the form of a round, is a funeral nuych dedicated to Old Abram Brown.
Concluding the musical is a traditional spiritual, “Rock-a My Soul,” arranged by CarrolL “In order not to conflict with 1:00 classes, the programs will begin at 12:15 and will be over by 12:45,” the director said.
Report Urges Scholarships
“Establishment of 2003 scholarships for undergraduate and 500 for graduate students, at public cost in state institutions of higher learning, was recommended by the survey committee and approved by the board of education.”
Other recommendations, according to Dr. Aubrey A. Douglass, associate state superintendent of public instruction, were the expansion oi the University of California to include an institution at Riverside as well as UCLA, and the establishment of “institutions of higher learning above the twelfth grade at Sacramento and southeastern Los Angeles.
Survey Committee Member Dr. Douglass, In addressing the group
at the final luncheon meeting of t li e Administration - Supervision conference Friday, also listed recommendations for the expansion of facilities in all state institutions, the authorization of state colleges to alter curricula so that they might grant master of aits degrees, and the establishment of occupational training lying between the trade school and professional levels.
In its one negative recommendation, the report opposes the expansion of any junior college to a four-year curriculum. “The sur-\ey group took the stand that it was the most dangerous proposal encountered,” Dr. Douglass said. On being questioned, lie emphasized that the recommendation at-
taches no stigma to the junior college, LACC being legally an example. On the contrary, he explained that the board of education considers the junior high school as “California’s contribution to education.”
. Dr. Douglass mentioned that the board of regents of the University of California approved the report with the exception of the provisions for scholarships. Upon this item judgment was withheld. Previously, lie had characterized the University of California as "a stale within a state,” explaining that possessor of its own charter, it is dependent upon the will of the legislature only in the matter
