After a hot fight, the Oratorical
board decided~not to allow the former
ec- Adelphi debating society to assume
vas the name of "The University House of
iad Representatives," which the society
had voted to adopt on reorganizing.
The board recommended that the new
in
society call itself "The Adelphi House
his of Representatives," and guaranteed
ay, that the title "House of Representa-
-y. tives" would notbe e thizar .fonr ue"
rr7iny of the other literary societies.
ke- As a result of the change made by
sill Adelphi,raso mplete change of policy
may take place in the debating socie-
at ties, several plans being discussed by
est the Oratorical board. In the past, the
societies have served mainly to train
men for the Varsity debates, while it
is now proposed to have them train
men in extemporaneous speaking, and
to take the debating preliminaries out
ed of the societies, establishing tryouts
ext open to all.

According to statistics given out by
the dean of the summer school, pros-
pects are brighter than ever before
foi! a record breaking session for, the
1914 term.
The informal registration at 6:00
o'clock Monday night showed an en-
rollment of 99, an increase of 31 over
the total at this time last year, or bet-
ter than 40 per cent increase. The cor-
respondence relative to enrolling in
the 1914 session, which had been re-
ceived to June 1, was heavier than it
Iyas for the entire session of 1913.
There will be a large increase in
students taking anatomy in the medi-
cal school, as 25 dental students have
made arrangements to take their re-
.quired anatomy work duing the corn-
ing session, instead of during the fir'st
semester of the following year.
There have been more than 10 ap-
plicants for the course In embalming,
so the regents will not discontinue it
at the end of the session as was plan-
ned.
STADIUM FORMS NOW EXCEED
NORTH .BLEACHERS IN HEIGIHT
Work on the stadium is steadily pro-
gressing. The forms for 42 rows of
seats are now erected, making the
stand about three feet higher than the
north stand. When completed with
13 more rows, it will be 16 feet higher
than the north stand.
Engineer Weeks states that the
pouring of the concrete superstruc-
ture will be done by July 15, the drain-
ing and toilet systems will be in by
the first of August, and that the stands
will be complete about the end of Sep-
tember. They will not be opened,
however, until the formal dedication
comes off on the day of the Penn
game.
Wisconsin University has written
Engineer Weeks for the plans of the
new stadium. They intend to build one
modeled, to a great extent, after it.
