ior and literary and engineering

nall the proceedings of the previous
meeting-which was called in the in-
terest of athletics and nothing else,-
in regard to the electing of the two
independent representatives on the
"J" hop committee, the baseball and
footi)all manager for the coming year.
Ater a warm debate the motion was
carried, and the action of the previ-
ous meeting declared void. Then fol-
lowed the election of officers for the
coming year.

a straight literary and a lit.engineer-
Both tickets had a strong following,
but the latter having a little the
strongest, elected their entire ticket
with the exception of treasurer. As
there was only one candidate for each
of the offices of track manager and
football manager and only two, for the
independent representatives on the
J hop committee, the election of the
aoove candidates was unanimous:
Thte following are the two tickets with
the number of votes that each candi-
date received following their respec-
tive names:

tadley, 99; vice-president, Miss

anum, 80; vice-president, Miss Horton,
