Modelled on the Yale-Harvard-Princeton Conference on Public Affairs, now in its third year, plans have been promulgated for a similar conference with Pennsylvania, Dartmouth and Cornell participating.

The Y-P-B 1938 conference will discuss "Problems of the United States Government," while the Pennsylvania, Cornell, Dartmouth confab will discuss "Making Democracy Work."
Invitations have been extended to certain members of the student body to be examined under the auspices of the Institute of State and Local Government. The general topic will be split up into five sub topics with a small number of men from each college participating.
