The two-day conference was in augurated last year for the purpose of pi °riding an opportunity for sec ondary and college educators to dis cuss their problems. The main prob., lens discussed at the conference this year was admission requirements to college. The system of admissions used at the University of Wisconsin was ex plumed by Registrar F. 0. Holt. In Wisconsin the colleges and secondary schools work together in preparing examinations for entrance require nrants to the various colleges throughout the state. As a result of this system the college is able to select a class of students who are best equipped to meet the entrance requirements, the Wisconsin registrar said. In addition to Mr. Holt's talk, Reg istrar William S. Hoffman described the system of admissions now is use at the College. It is planned to make the guidance and pet sonnet confer ence an annual affair, Dean Cham bers said. The conference will again be held next year probably in the lat ter part of October. 21 STUDY AElto ENGINEERING Twenty-five students have enrolled in a three-year course in aeronautical engineeting to be given in Philadel phia by Mr. H. R. Dowdy under the supervimon of the College department of engineering extension. This class is in cooperation with the Aero club of Pennsylvania. `Support of Artists Course Probable,' Cloetingh Says Professor Cites Success of Ben Greet Troupe as Indicating Campus Interest "Penn State seems ready to support a high-glade entektamment course,: judging from the successful r'eception of the Ben Cscet Players," said Prof Arthur C. Cloetingh, discolor of the Penn State Player', in an inteniew Sunday. More than 1 , 100 adnussions weic ieceised for the tun performances of the Shakespearean troupe and the guarantee of $B5O Sias easily paid from receipts, according to Professor Clochngh, although the sponsors were' forced to pay slight additional expenses. "An entertainment course, containing at the most four nunibeis of the highest quality, would surely Leech e as good a reception as the Ben Greet Players did," Professor Cloetingh said, "I would be very optimistic for a course including twa musical num bers of the highest type, a leading ;lecturer, and a performance like that of Sir Philip's troupe" With 400 attending the "Comedy of Errors" in the afternoon and neatly 1,000 as audience for "Hamlet" at night, the attendance seems to in-' dicate a desire for this type of en tertainment at the College, the di rector said, pointing out that the football season during which the per-. formances took place is notoriously poor for dramatic productions. - If students and faculty who enjoy this high type of entertainment would make - known their intention of sup porting a fine entertainment series, Professor Cloetingh indicated, it would be easy to re-establish the course here.
