The new committee will get
into action soon to advise the -Board
on procedure for further'

doctorate degree with one' appli

a resolution providing that When"
applications are made to graduate '
schools by Negroes, they will be'
accepted or rejected in accord-'
ance with the approved rules of
admission when such schools are
not proyided by the State for
Negroes." "
In a comparatively quiet ses
sion, the Board approved an Ad
ministrative Code which defines
the functions and duties of the
.administrative branch of the Uni
versity. Under the new code,
Controller W. D, Carmichael, Jr.,
switched titles and became Vice
President of the University. How
ever, his duties will still be those
of a Controller. .
