He told the Personnel and Guidance Association a commit- tee has proposed to reduce the number of subjects required for university admittance and give Grade 13 students time to study them in greater depth. "The suggested normal pro- gram is two subjects at normal level and two at advanced level," he said. "It is felt that, except in very special cases, a ' student could not do justice to more than two subjects at ad- vanced level, "It is possible, however, that some university faculties may find it necessary to require slightly more. than this sug- gested normal program." He said he will appoint an- other committee to study the administrative and _ teaching problems resulting from the proposed change in both high schools and universities, Mr. Davis' remarks were con- tained in a text of his speech issued in advance of delivery. While he said the concept of general and advanced levels in Grade 13 appears to have met general support in principle from secondary schools and uni- versities, the reduced Grade 13 curriculum ran into some crit- icism Tuesday at another ses- sion here in connection with the Ontario Educational Association convention. Prof. Bernard Taylor of the Ontario College of Education told the Ontario Classical Asso- ciation division of the OEA that the University of Toronto's LT GRADE 13 SUBJECTS MAY BE CUT TO 4 council of arts and sciences dis- likes the idea of accepting four subjects as adequate for admis- sion. He said that if a student went into maths and sciences, it would be likely English could not be included in his post- Grade 13 cdreer. It also sounded like the "voice of doom" for high school Latin and Greek. Mr. Davis said Prof. Taylor was prematurely concerned, since the suggested revision was still under consideration and would not likely be intro- duced in less than two years. | South Viets | Must Perish | A Peking Says By JOHN RODERICK TOKYO (AP)--China said to- day South Viet Nam must be| destroyed as a "'product of U.S | imperialism" so that all Viet Nam can be reunified.

Lucien Rivard. Dr. Paul Ferron, the party's- founder and _ chair- | man, says, however, the Rhi- nos aren't sure yet which Lu- cien Rivard will contest the Montreal - Papineau riding now held by the federal jus- tice minister. "The telephone book is full of them,"' he said in an inter- view. "In fact, we may try to get a whole bunch of them to run in ridings all over the province." INST FAVREAU) The one thing that could disrupt party plans, said Dr. Ferron, is the return of the real Lucien Rivard, the sus- pected narcotics - smuggling conspirator who has been on the loose since his escape March 2 from Montreal's Bor- deaux jail. The Rhinos might have to call off their plan "'if the most famous Lucien Rivard of them all happens to show up again before the election." The Rhinoceros party adopted its name on grounds the big animal was a perfect symbol of'a politician. It ran candidates in two federal byelections in the Montreal area in 1963 and drew a total of 398 votes.

The Pentagon chie' spoke to reporters Tuesday night in Ho- nolulu after two days of confer- ences on the Viet Nam war. He then headed home. McNamara also said he as- sumes Russian missiles eventu- ally will be sent to North Viet Nam, but they are not known to be there now. Last week reports reach Washington that a Russian anti- aircraft missile site was being constructed near Hanoi, the North Viet Nam capital. Last Friday, a state department spokesman said such a site ap- peared to be in preparation near Hanoi, but other officials said there was no evidence that any Soviet missiles had reached North Viet Nam. When the Soviet missile ques- tion was put to McNamara, he replied: "We have no specific infor- mation whether surface-to-air missiles are in North Viet Nam, but we must assume they will eventually be introduced into that country."
