(LP.) Abolition of the traditional four year program for undergraduates in favor of an advance-as-you-learn plan will be one of the fu ture goals of Johns Hopkins Uni versity. Under this plan there would be virtually no restrictions on students as to time, scope or specific study. - The University has begun a campaign to raise 1 75 to ; 100 mil lion dollars to finance the 'transi tion and to increase 4he endow ment. The cost of the immediate change has been tentatively set at $6 million! . , - The goal of the program, which will take about six , years to-install, is to eliminate the distinc tion between graduate and under graduate students, according to Dr. Detlev W. Bronk, president. Dr. Bronk revealed the plan on the seventy-fifth anniversary of the founding of the school. No student will be f breed to ac celerate his studies, but those who wish to advance as rapidly as they can will be able to do so. The more intelligent students will be able to obtain a master's degree in about four years, which is nor mally the time needed for a bach elor's degree, 6ne university of ficial estimated.

It may be granted by the local board each successive year, thus enabling students who meet the criteria to complete their educa tion. The I-S deferment on the other hand is a "one-shot" pro- position designed only to allow those students who do not have eligibility for consideration for II-S deferments, and who have never before received a student deferment or postponement to complete their current academic year. r ; ; - ; A student who receives a ' I-S deferment until the end of his current academic year may in some instances receive a II-S de ferment for the next year, General Hershey revealed. If during the academic year his work was such that he is in the prescribed upper portion of his class, or if he takes the Selective Service College Qualification Test and makes a score of 70 or better, the local board can consider him for a II-S deferment for the following academic year. Local boards generally deter mine during the summer months to whom II-S deferments shall be granted for the next academic year.. In making their determina tion, they consider the student's class standing for the previous academic year as furnished by the schoql on Selective Service Form 109. For example, a freshman student with a I-S deferment may, General Hershey pointed out, keep his class work to a point where he is in the prescribed upper portion of his class at the end of that academic year or during the year take the College Qualification ; ,Test so that he i thereby" becomes eligible for con sideration for a II-S deferment opa Year Ilea Plan for the next year.
