FOREIGN MEMBERS FOR COUNCIL

COSMOPOLITAN CLUB. TO APPOINT REPRESENTATIVES.--CHAPEL QUESTION DISCUSSED.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Foreign students in the University will, in the future, be represented on the Student Council by one or two men to be selected from the members of the Cosmopolitan Club. This was decided at a meeting of the council held last evening during which that body also discussed various phases of the Chapel question.

At present, although the athletic teams and all undergraduate publications have representatives on the Council, there are no members from among the foreign students. The new plan, however, will be put in effect very shortly.

Dr. Paul Revere Frothing ham '86 spoke at the meeting, and urged that some system be adopted at the University whereby the attendance at Chapel would be increased. Although opposed to compulsory attendance, Dr. Forthingham expressed the desire that arrangements similar to those at the University of Chicago be made here. At Chicago, each class goes to chapel en masse one day each week, and, although the attendance remain voluntary, it brings much better result than the system at the University.
