the Egyptian crises becomes more
grave by the hour. The English
are calling up the. eighth division
of their best trained fighting men
in a last effort to halt the tide of
General Rommel 's hard-pressing
forces. The impending battle will
no doubt be the determining fac
tor in the future domination of
this important sector.

Forces Salary Drop
Since a cut is necessary because
of the reduced income of the Col
lege, now operating on a X l2-month
plan with a budget considerably
lower than the one for the reg
ular ten-month term, staff mem
bers who now hold ten-month con
tracts with the College and who
will be needed for the months of
July and August will receive sal-
Ties at a 30 per cent cut from
their regular monthly rate.
This plan was revealed by Presi
dent Ralph D. Hetzel in a letter
mailed yesterday to faculty staff
members.
The budget for this year was not
drawn up until the cmount of stu
dent fees; principal source of in
come from which . salaries can be
drawn, was determined for the
semester. Federal and State appro
priations are the only other source
of College income and these have
not been increased over the
amounts set for the regular two
semester year.
Separate contracts for the next
two months will he offered to all
faculty members needed• for the
summer work. However, Dr.' Het
zel stated that members are under
no obligations to accept these con
tracts:.. '
