OXFORD OF THE FUTURE.

VICE-CHANCELLOR LOOKS FORWARD."

A BIG CENTRE FOR ASTRONOMY,

Oxford—A great new Astrono. nical Observatory in the neighbour, hood of Oxford was fordshildewed, by the Vice-Chancellor of Oxford' University, Dr. F. Romes Dudden, in his review of the year's work.

Another interesting proposal which he mentioned was no scheme for the formation of a society for the benefit of Oxford graduales throughout the world,

The Vice-Chancebur said that pending the appointment of a new Savilian Professor of Astronomy, the whole problem of the future of astronomy at Oxford had been care- fully reviewed and that a detailed scheme had now been prepared, which included the construction of a new and thoroughly-equipped ob- servatory on a suitable site not too. far distant from the university. If funds could be provided from cht side sources to implement the scheme there was, he added, no reason why Oxford should not re- cever the rank it formerly held as cne of the leading astronomical centres in the Empire and in the world.

He then went on to speak of a project for the formation of a so ciety for Oxford graduntes schtter-

thrunghout the world

At present," he said; "there are no obvious means of keeping alive the interest of non-resident graduates in the affairs of the t'niversity. It has, therefore been suggested that an Oxford society might be formed after the medel of certain college societies already in existence, and that in connection with this society a magazine might Be published which should ik- seminate among graduates scutter- ed iar and wide over the world fall information concerning all the more important University happeninga.”

For the moment, however, he snici, netion in this matter had been deferred until the general financial situation had become easier.

Motor-Cars at Oxford. Stating that the road traffic pro- blem still agitates us," Dr. Dud- den said.. that the University au- thorities hid themselves Laken action to relieve the grave conges tion in the central area of the city during the busier part of the day And that the use of motor vehicles by undergraduates had been re- stricted to between the hours of 1 p., and pm.

The Vice-Chancellor called atten- tion to the fact that more than 45 per cent, of the undergraduates now in residence are in receipt of fan- cial assistance, without which it) would not be possible for them to come to the University.

It

"The fact," he said, "is sigui Beant of a change that is taking) place in the constitution and char neter of the student body. means that the University in at pre- sent being recruited from a fari wider. field than formerly--not merely from the prosperous but hiso from the less well-to-do, and even from the quite poor classes. But it means further that, through the en- lightened action of the State and. the local education authorities, the best talent of every class, the flower, of the youth of the entire communi- ty, is now being drafted into the University.

Thus there is reason to suppose the quality of the living" material which is here placed at our dis- nosal has itpproved and is improv-1 inx, and, on the whole, experience atenata that this is actually the:
