Raps Graduate Student Dickering For Fellowships Dean Furniss of Yale Assails Those Who 'Shop Around' New Haven, Dec 12. (AP.) Students who "shop around" for college fellowships were assailed today by Dean Edgar S. Furniss of the Yale Graduate School In recommending adoption of uniform standards of granting scholarships. Dean Furniss in his annual report to President James R.

Angell, urged that graduate schools agree on a scale of stipends to advance students. "A great number of students," he said, 'shop around' among the graduate schools, somewhat in the manner of the 'tramp athlete' in the colleges, carrying their wares to the highest markeT. "Many of these students should be discouraged from attempting graduate study in any university; none of them certainly deserves to be subsidized save as a reward of merit and recognition of outstanding achievement. "It is within the power of the graduate schools to control this situation by adopting uniform standards of selection to guide them in their choice of scholars and fellows and a comparable scale of stipends proportioned to the maturity and ability of the beneficiaries." Dean Furniss, who pointed out that the propriety of giving aid to deserving students was not questioned, said that distribution of funds among 40 branches of graduate study at Yale was a "perennial problem of diplomacy."

Seventeen members of the vessels crew are either dead or missing. From the fragmentary statements of the two survivors authorities were able to piece together the story of the "Venus." December 1 the "Venus" put out from Lerwick, Shetland Islands, with almost 5000 gallons of liquor. Several days ago, after she had succeeded in landing 3000 gallons on the Norwegian coast, she was found by a Coast Guard cutter. The cutter fired 20 shots at her, some of them proving effective, but she escaped in the lowering dusk of the early northern night. Grounded On Bocks.

Soon afterward she struck the rocks off the Sogne coast north of Bergen. The crew got her off and kept her afloat by pumps only to have her sink. The seamen attempted to escape on pieces of wreckage and in two boats. One boat capsized, drowning six. The other lifeboat also capsized but the seven men aboard succeeded In righting it and regaining their places with the exception of the captain, who had broken his arm.

Pour of the remaining six died and when the other two finally were found on the beach at Maaloey their tongues were swollen and they were almost dead of hunger. The "Venus" listed Panama as her port of registry. i Eleven of the missing 17 men were British, the others being Germans and Poles. The captain, whose name was Visna-Grotsky, had been in difficulty once before, police said, in connection with rum running. One of the survivors is English and the other Is German, Front Street Parking Proposal Is Opposed The Police Board will "report unfavorably to the Common Council Monday night proposal to allow parking on the east side of Front Street after 6 p.
