In the group honored for grades

Yale College receiving high oration

dents. ‘
In addition to the senior appoint-
ments. of the 213 students receiving
honors and prizes in the Sheffield
Scientific School for the classes of
1925-1926 and 1927. 130, or 61 per
cent., were from tne self-supporting
group.
Honors and prizes announced in
the Law School and Medical School
at the same time showed that in
these professional studies, as well. a
majority of the honors were taken
by students earning part of their ex-
penses. Three out of six honor grad-
uates and eight out of 11 prize win-
here in these two schools were self-
supporting students. making the pro.
portion of total honors of the two
schools won by the sell-supporting
students also over 60 per cent.
for out in the world and far down
into the centruies: this trial denotes
an age-old cleavage of humanity;
once again it is the alignment of the

Both Well Prepared.
It is interesting to note that Dar-
row is a lay-scientist, and that Bry-
an is a lay-religionist. The indemnit—
been fought by scientists on the one
ties of evolution in the past have
hand and dignitaries of the church
on the other. But both Bryan and
Darrow will bring to the encounter
highly specialized abilities. For
many years Darrow's chifa pro-occu-
pation has been science. and he has
been a member of.a group of the
University of Chicago .engnged in
various branches of scientific re-
search, chief among which were evo-
lution and ‘modern psychology. ilir.
Bryan. bringing many university de-
grees in his train, may also be as-
sumed to have gone deeply into the
essentials of evolutionary theory. He
is also thoroughly grounded in the
fundamentals of religious orthodoxy.
This will be no loose and ill-inform-
ed discussion.
The judge will have to look sharp-
ly to the requirements of relevancy.
it they get to discussing Herbert
Spencer. they will be led into a‘de-
hate on good and evil. as derived
ion‘s paleontology would raise the
whole question of the validity of the
inductive. as opposed to the deduc-
tive method; so endless are the
ramifications of evolutionary theory
that it is conceinble that the ques-
tiono of integrations of social units.
and the progress toward homogene-
ity could end in a debate on State's
rights an) Federal centralization.

Never before has a Judge faced su'ch
difficult requirements on ruling on
the ever recurring “incompetent. ir-
relevant and immaterial." In fact.
if you follow out these by-ways far
enough. there is nothing that is ir-
relevant to this discussion.
In this series. an effort has been
made to sketch in rough outline with
the limited space available, what the
theory of evolution is. what its ante-
cedents are. where it falls short in
considerations of ultimate causua-
tion. and why it is important on the
thinking. the morals, the cultural.
the economic and the social align-
ments of today.
A complete Bibliography of evolu-
tion couldn't be printed in the entire
edition of this newspaper. Here are
a few books which will help to fill
in the "wide open spaces" left by
this discussion:

Kellogg (The MacMilisn Company,
