TO TANGO OR NOT
TO TANGO-WHICH?.
Petitions, asking that the tango be
admitted to the annual (aance of the
Forestry club, were circulated in the
classes of the forestry department yes-
terday. The papers were put in the
field to combat the petitions circulat-
ed last Friday, asking that the dance
be restricted to a "straight two-step
and waltz program."
The discussion as to whether or not
the tango shall have life in the for-
estry department has now reached a
heated tempest. Supporters on each
side are busy endeavoring to outwit
the other side in the number of sig-
natures by next Wednesday, when the
Forestry club will formally pass on
the later dancing steps.
It is planned to hold the dance im-
mediately following the Christmas hol-
days.

declaring a divident to stockholde
on their purchases. Like the Wisco
sin system, Schroeder does not inter
to cut prices directly and create nee
less opposition among booksellers.
