RETRENCHMENT IN AUCKLAND UNIVERSITY.
(PRESS ASSOCIATION TELEGRAM.)
AUCKLAND, May 16. The strained relations between the Auckland University Council and the Professorial Board in relation to the alteration of the calendar, whereby eight hoars a week are devoted to mathematics, led the Council to pass a resolution giving Mr Aldis, Professor of mathematics, six months' notice terminating his engagement. Professor Aldis has been paid £700 a year and fees, about £800 altogether. The Council has resolved to engage another professor of mathematics at £400 or £500 a year, and ask the AgentGeneral to assist in the matter.
