Bush, recently head of the department of romance languages at the University, who is now abroad with the Army Educational commission, is assisting with the enrollment of A. E.

'14, former Iowa athlete, to his wife, Beth Brainerd Thomas, B. A. '13, Iowa, now residing with her parents in Iowa City. Including Beaune university, French universities and colleges made available to A. E. F. number thirty. Formerly a huge base hospital center, the buildings at Beaune have been converted into class rooms, laboratories, dormitories, and recreation and entertainment halls capable of accommodating 40,000 students. There are nearly 1000 buildings, 400 of which will be used as class rooms. When in full operation, Beaune university will be the largest educational institution in the world. The army educational commission, which will supervise the program throughout the whole A. E. F., has established headquarters at Beaune. Professor Bush cooperated in the work of enrollment with other membersof the commission and with Gen. Robert I. Rees and Col. Charles Exton and Major J. L. Coolidge, educational commandant of Paris. It is estimated that within Paris alone more than 2,000 officers and enlisted men of the A. E. F. registered for university courses within the first few days of enrollment. RHODES SCHOLARS TO BE APPOINTED Scholarships Discontinued During War Will Be Resumed Under New Plan in October TEACHERS' AGENCIES BUSY Trustees of the Rhodes scholarship fund, which provides free tuition for American students at Oxford university, have adopted a new plan whereby they discontinue the qualifying examinations, according to word received here by University authorities. Appointments to Rhodes Scholarships in the United States, which were postponed for the duration of the war, will be resumed in October 1919. There will be elections of one scholars each from all the states, except from sixteen which under normal conditions would have appointed scholars for both 1917 and 1918 and will be allowed to appoint two scholars this year. Iowa is one of these sixteen states. In the future it will be necessary for candidates to make formal application, endorsed by the authorities of their college or university. The selection will be made on the basis of a man's record in school and college in accordance with the four points outlined in the Rhodes will: Scholarship, character, interest in outdoor sports, interest in one's fellows and instincts for leadership.

S.c., B. C. L., or Ph. D. Candidates must be unmarried, between the ages of ninteen and twenty-five, and must have completed at least their second year in college.
