Preparations for the celebration are under way in the hands of the various faculty committees, and gradually def- S inite plans are being evolved from chaos. By way of publicity, 10,000 leaflets are to be printed, giving data as to the scope, the purpose, and the general plans of the celebration. Sec- retary Shaw of the Alumni Associa- tion will mail bunches of these to the secretaries of the various classes te which .are to hold reunions this June, kn and Secretary Smith will have them is for general distribution along with co the bulletins- and other printed matter an mailed from his office.

During their confinement the ex- pense of keeping these men at the jail has been met by the professors.
