The Red Cross is asking you to consider the
matter of prisoners of war and those who
arc missing in action in Asia.
It is not asking you to take a stand on the
war itself. It is asking you to ask Hanoi to
observe the humanitarian provisions of the
Geneva Conventions.
Ask Hanoi to release the names of men it
holds prisoner. Ask them to allow prisoners
to communicate regularly with their fam
ilies. Ask them to repatriate seriously ill
and wounded prisoners. Ask them to allow
a neutral intermediary to inspect places ol
detention.
Ask them this in a letter mailed to:

First Semester Fades Away-
Examinations Loom On Horizon
Exams for the first semester this
year are still to be self-scheduled
and will follow the procedure from
last semester with a few minor
changes.
The examination period will be
from Saturday, January 16, to Sat
urday morning, January 23, includ
ing Sunday. There will be eight
days to take exams. The time
periods in which you may take
exams will be : 9-12, 2-5, 7-10. There
will be no 9 o’clock period on Sun
day and no afternoon or evening
periods on Saturday, January 23, the
last day. Officially, there will not
be a Reading Day, separating the
last day of classes and the first day
of exams, but students may schedule
their own.
Students may pick up examina
tions and blue books one-half hour
before the beginning of each exam
period at the distribution point m
the building in which the class has
met. You will write the examina
tions in classrooms in that building.
Three hours will be allowed for each
exam period, and examinations and
blue books must be returned in the
envelopes to the distribution points
within 15 minutes thereafter. If
they are late, a failing grade may
be given. You may pick up your
exam any time within the 3 hour
period (for example, you pick up
your exam at 3 ;30 and turn it in by
5:15).
It is suggested that students dis
pose of all exam materials before
leaving a classroom except those
they were instructed to turn in. Of
course, no notes or study materials
are to be taken into the classrooms
while exams are in progress. It
may be helpful to bring a watch and
several pens or penci's. Students
should remember to take an exam
with at least one other girl in the
room. Students have the usual dress
code while ta'-ing exams, but pi ase
look presentable in Main Hall be
cause prospective students may be
there.
When it is necessary for a class
to take an exam as a class, it will
be announced by the faculty mem
ber and again will be posted in
Main Hall. These exams will have
priority of time and place over all
other exams.
Students taking an open-book ex
amination in the Fine Arts Center
will have the Library (FAC) re

book room for Main Hall is 302 and
for the Science Building 106.
Applied music examinations will
be scheduled according to instruc
tions of the School of Music.
