MAKE PLANS FOR

The general alumni association is al-
ready making plans for the alumni pro-
gram during commencement week, and
the main features have already been de-
cided upon. Recommendations providing
for holding alumni activities on two

drawn up by Secretary Wilfred B. Shaw,
and were approved by the Regents at
their April meeting.
Tuesday of commencement week will
be a reunion day for the various classes,
while Wednesday will be a general jolli-
fication day. The features of the two
days will be the unveiling of the tablet
to President Tappan, .a mass meeting in
Hill Auditorium, where a program of
old songs and yells will be held, an
alumni parade to the Pennsylvania
game at Ferry Field, Varsity band con-
cert. and a luncheon in Barbour gym-
nasium served by the Collegiate al-
umnae.
The program is being arranged by a
committee of the general association
consisting of Stanley D. McGraw, Dean
. 1.. Effinger, Dr. J. F. Breakey, Regent

LTOR SE(TlI T.N" SPEAKERS.
A pet.ition to secure four per cent of
the annual blanket tax with which to de-
fray the expenses of the Oratoriacl as-
sociation, is to be presented to the
Board of Regents at their next meeting.
This would amrount to about $1,200,
which would be sufficient to carry on
the oratorical and debating contests
which are held annually. and to provide
a lecture course similar to the one now
conducted by the association. In case
the regents take favorable action on the
matter, the contests and lectures will be
opened to the public without charge.

In the future, the preliminaries for
the Northern Oratorical League and
the Hamilton Oratorical contests will be
held together, according to the action of
the Oratorical board yesterday. The
orator who receives first place in the
contest will be sent to the Northern Or-
atorical League contest, while the second
honor man will enter the Hamilton Ora-
torical meet.
The University Y. M. C. A. has given
work to is5 students since September
z, which is nearly as many as were
placed last year.
