The new Council will meet for the first time in joint session next Monday while election of officers is scheduled for the following week. At this time a president, a secretary, and a treasurer will be elected. The treasurer in addition to his Council duties will also become manager of the Graduate School Club.

Gerald J. Holton 4G, chairman of the Council, pointed out that the constitution under which the Council is currently operating permits that body to appoint nine students to the group in order to assure representation of the Radcliffe, married, and veteran factions.

Among the problems facing the new Council will be the question of degree requirements and that of housing facilities.
