come como up to a standard of requirement The visit of Dr Prichett to the tho local uni university was so hurried that he was un unable unable unable able to gather all 1111 of the thu he desired so he requested quested r President Kings Kingsbury bury to submit it to him In New York in order that when the local institution should make application aid It could be decided If It it tt were entitled to share in the fund fend The information aU n sought by b Dr Prichett Prichett ett ott was with reference to the entrance requirements of tIe the Utah institution the number of students entering the

Utah but two came up to the requirements of the fund the University University University sity of California and the University of Colorado This has led to the infer inference once enc in New York that Dr Prichett be believes believes believes the western universities are not as far advanced in tho the higher branches as many of those of the east Examination Cursory There Is pot not the slightest ground for such an Inference said President Kingsbury last night In the first place pla e Dr Pritchett made but a brief ex examination examination of the University of Utah and until he receives s the Information which he requested be sent to him at New York he will not be In a position to judge as to the fitness of this in institution institution lon to share In Ip the hind Further

inthe the privileges of ef the fund but no steps to this end nd have as yet et been taken The report that the foundation was to throw a bombshell into at least ten western universities is Js therefore not taken very seriously While it is true Dr Pritchett paid es especial especial especial tribute to the universities of Cal California California and Colorado he was w i t In a position to throw cold water on the Utah university because he ho was not possessed of the tho necessary Information II to determine whether or o II not the local institution ranked along with those entitled to t the fund
