TODAY'S WEATH.SR RAIN AND COLDER, Kenworthy, secretary of the Council of Administration, said the confusion was the result of a misinterpretation of the newly adopted calendar policy. Lemyre Misinformed He explained that the basis for judgment that was followed was a statement of policy to govern future calendars which • was adopted on April 9, 1953 by the College Senate. It 'was not un derstood that this plan, 'dropping the holiday, did not go into ef fect until the fall semester' of 1954, he said. _ Lemyre •said that he asked members of the Senate calendar committee if the holiday was available this semester and they told him that it was not. He. did not read the official minutes of the committee, he' said. Action on the holiday would have been taken before the Penn sylvania game if cabinet had known, he said. The holiday, can be taken any remaining football weekend, he said, and added that popular sentiment Will probably favor the Pittsburgh game. None Next Year He explained that the action of All-College Cabinet is only, a rec ommendation. and • must be ap proved by the Council of Admin istration. This group is composed of ' President, Milt° n- S. Eisen hower, the assistants to the Pres ident, the school deans, the deans of men and women, and the dean of admissions. Kenworthy said the. 1953-54 calendar:-was approved by the Senate on May 1, 1952 before the calendar policy statement was passed. •The latter did not effect this. year but eliminates the holi day in the 1954-55 and 1955-56 calendars. The Senate policy, including the holiday ruling, is not an ac tual calendar but is a guide and limit to the person appointed by the President to draw up the cal endar each year. Any conflict arising in the new policy is to be resolved by the calendar com mittee. • Juniors May Become Candidates for LaVie , Fifth semester juniors interest ed in waking on LaVie who did not attend the' candidate meet ings may sign up by contacting Shirley Stuckey, 275 Simmons, or by reporting to the LaVie offiCe, 412 Old Main.
