Gov. Kilby declared that he is highly In favor of Khe. propo- sition, The governor expressed the opinion that it the Muscle Shoals property was operated by the state government it would be possible through the profits derived to relieve the people of the state of all further property taxes. He de- clared that if his administration did not expire within the next year he would ! | seriously consider calling the legislature into special session to consider the pro- Pposed plan. In order for the state to purchase the property it would be necessary for an extra session of the legislature to be held for the purpose of calling an elec- tion, as an amendment to the state con- stitution would be required to appro- priate the money for the purchase. Gov. Kilby stated that he is giving the matter serlous consideration, al- though he doubts if it would be possible to secure the necessary legislation be- fore his term of governor expires next January.

Prof. Braun will be- gin his work at the Swiss university in October next, giving a course of lectures in the German language on intellectual and social conditions in the United States. ‘FRESHIES’ BEAT ‘PROFS.’l Mental Alertness Tests Given to College and University Heads. CHICAGO, February 23.—Physiolo- gists giving mental alertness tests to twenty-four college and university presidents at Northwestern Univer- sity announced that not one of the educators had attained a grade as high as that made by the best minds in_this year’'s freshman class. The educators have been attending a conference. They are from middie- western institutions. The tests were the same given all freshmen when they enter Northwestern. The ques- tions are mainly a test of the quick- ness of the student's- mind. The grades made by the educators ranged from 33 to 79 out of a possible 100. Freshmen drew marks from 24 to 84. Their highest mark was five oints above that scored by the col- ege officials.- This was explained by President Walter Dill Scott of North- western, who said that it was onmly natural that the older men would not be as quick mentally as younger students.
