HOLDS COLLEGE WORK ALONE INSUFFICIENT

"Extra-curriculum activities give men a sense of responsibility and develop initiative and self-confidence to a degree that cannot possibly be obtained by the mere passing of examinations," said W. R. Castle Jr. '00, commenting to a CRIMSON reporter on the college preparation, necessary for entering the diplomatic service. Mr. Castle, who is a former English instructor and assistant dean in the University and now assistant in the Department of State at Washington, has spent the last few days here advising undergraduates who plan to enter the diplomatic service.

"College journalism is particularly profitable," he continued. "In fact, I consider my work as president of the Harvard Advocate, the most important courts that I took in college."

When asked to express a general opinion on college policies, Mr. Castle rose to the defense of a democratic program. "The only way that Harvard can maintain its high standard is to be all-American," he said. "That is, no one race must predominate. The more variety in the University the better."
