It was explained at the University that the Committee on Scholarships felt It neces sary to take this course because tho Uni versity could not nfford to pay actual money for the holders of scholarships In tho dental school. Tho University grants about 8()0 scholarships each year, but It docs this simply by canceling the tuition fees. It would bo willing to grant dental school students scholarships In the same way, but It feels It cannot afford to pay their tuition, nnd Hint Is what It uould Ipive to do to continue tho scholarships In the dental school; paying University funds over to the board of trustees of the Evans Insti tute. The provost decided to notify tho students affected, so that they might mako tho nec essary arrangements by next autumn. In case tho two boards, of trustees fall to reach an understanding favorable to the students. The provost Indicated, In his statement, that the matter would bo further considered by the boards. ' ' Henry Halney, secretary of the board of trustees of the Evans Institute, said the subject would be considered nt the board meeting June 1. lie said he thought tho two boards would "get together on tho question, all right," but ho wasn't prepared to predict Just how satisfactorily for tho students the question would be settled.
