"With more than $4000 in cash and
pledges actually reported and assured
at 10:30 o'clock last night, the suc-
cess of the financial drive of the S.
C. A. is certain," stated Earl Sawyer
Chairman.
"The goal set for the drive is $6000,
and although the drive officially ended
last night, nevertheless soliciting will
continue until the entire amount sought
is raised," said Perry Hayden, Pres.
"We have been well pleased with the
amount of the individual subscriptions
which have averaged in the neighbor-
hood of $2.00, and with 50 fraternities
still to report and 2500 independents
we feel confident that we should go
over the top the first part of the week."
jHigh man in pledges and actual
cash is John C. Allen, '26, with $115.
Highest fraternity ip to last night
was the Chyron with $113.50, closely
followed by Theta Chi with $109.
Although the drive officially closed
last night, nevertheless a clean up
squad, composed ofthe best solicitors
will continue to call upon students,
who have not been given an opportun-
ity to contribute
The amount raised in the financial
drive of the S. C. A. last year was
$4300. This has been increased to
$6000, due to an increase in the en-
tire budget from $23,000 to $28,000.
The balance of the addition will be
raised among alumni, faculty and
friends, under the direction of Donald
E. Williams, '25L, who has been added
to the S. C. A. staff this fall as field
secretary.t
A choice of a handsome hammered
sterling silver pitcher or any one of
three beautiful silver loving kcups,
which are now on display at Lane
Hall, which are the gift of Mr. M. A.
Ives of this city, will be awarded to
the solicitor bringing in the highest
amount of acutal cash. Due to the ex-
tension of the drive, the winner will
not be announced until next week.
UNERSITY HIGH SCOOL
ELECTS STUDENT COUNCIL
James Inglis was elected president
of a student council which has been
organized for the University high
school. home rooms served as voting
precincts for the election; nomina-
tions were by petitions. Two coun-
cil members have been chosen from
each home room, making a total of
ten student representatives on the
council. The three faculty members
are Prof. Raleigh Schorling, Mr. .
W. Stephenson, and Miss Edith
Moyle.
The council held its first meeting
Wednesday morning from 8 to 9. A
discipline committee within the coun-
cil for the solution of general rather
than of specific problems was de-
cided upon. A general discussion was
held upon the use of the council as
a means'of establishing group self-
control and good citizenship.
Band May Not Go
To o. S. U. Game
In spite of the fact that the at-
tendance at the annual Band Bounce
held Wednesday night in Hill audi-
torium, was the largest of the last
three years the Band failed to clear
enough money to make possible the
trip to Ohio State a week from Sat-
urday.
The early hour at which it was nec-
essary to start the program is given-
as one of the reasons for the failure
to fill the house by Arthur Smith, '25,
the Band manager. Unless some un-
forseen aid is given before next week-
end there is absolutely no chance for
the Band to go to Columbus accord-
ing to Smith.

NAME AIGLER DIRECTOR ANNUAL TO BE CHANGEDI
I o
Prof. Ralph W. Aigler, '07L, of the;
Law school, was yesterday named di-
rector-at-large in the Alumni associa-
tion. In addition to the appointment
of Prof. Aigler, the board of directors
of the association, holding their an-
nual fall meeting at the Union, dis-
cussed plans for University dormitor-
ies for men, and authorized the pres-
ident, Mason P. Rumney, '07E, to ap-
point a committee to consider the
matter.
The board named Stuart H. Perry,
'96L, a committee of one to draft res-
olutions expressing the board's regret
and sorrow at the recent death of
Henry W. Douglas, '90E, whose post
of director, Professor Aigler was
named to fill. The dormitory com-
mittee will be instructed to consider
plans for both the financing and the
construction of the buildings.
Plans were discussed for the tri-.
ennial meeting of the international
body of the Alumni association at De-
troit next spring. The latter part of
the second week in June was' set as
the tenative date for the gathering of
club representatives from all over the
world.
The board went on record as op-
posing the Union's suggestion that the
back dues of inembers be put into the
hands of a collecting bureau. In
view of the fact that the association
can not undertake the matter itself,
it was decided to lay the matter on the
table until a latter date.
The legislative committee of the
board was also named yesterday.
Prof. G. Carl Huber, '87M, of the
Medical school, Professor Aigler,
Thomas Clancey, '10E, and T. Hawleyt
Tapping, '10L, field secretary, were
appointed.PFlowers were sent by the
board to President Marion L. Burton
with a message of sympathy.
In addition to PresidentyRumney,
Professor Huber, and Mr. Tapping, the
following members of the board were
present: Roy D. Chapin, ex-'01, Al-

Short Session Of Body Beginning Next
Month Will Treat Farm Legislation
And Appropriations Bill
Washington, Nov. 7.-President Coo-
lige does not contemplate at least
for the present, calling the new con-
gress into special session after next
March 4, nor does he now expect to
present any comprehensive plans of
tax reductions to the present congress
at the short session which will begin
next month.
White House spokesmen in outlining
the president's views today indicated
that farm legislation and the annual
appropriation bill would comprise
i the principal subjects of congressional
action at the approaching short ses-
sion.
In so far as tax reduction is con-
cerned it was made known that Pres-
dent Coolidge just now does not think
it advisable to reopen the whole ques-
tion of taxation at the short session
with a Congress which has but re-
cently declared its position on the
subject.
The President's position on legis-
lative problems was given after a day
devoted mostly -to conferences with
congressional leaders. Senate spokes-
men frankly expressed the hope that
the president would not call a special
session, declaring the country has
shown no desire for immediate addi-
tional legislation,
REVISED RETURNS SHOW
REPUBLICANS GAINING
Washington, Nov. 7.-The Republi-
cans on the basis of revised election
returns appeared today to have gain-
ed an additional seat in the House
bringing their total up to 247 or 29
more than a majority. The upset, in
the first Oklahoma district kept the
Democratic strength to 182 seats as
against 207 in the present house.
On unofficial returns, Wayne Bay-
less, Democrat was winner by a scant
margin in the Oklahoma district but
the official tabulation showed him
143 votes behind S. J. Montgomery,
Republican opponent.
If final returns show Coolidge a
winner in New Mexico, his electoral
total will be 382, as all doubt as to
his capturing North Dakota was re-
moved today when the count there
was practically completed. Loss of
New Mexico would cut the Davis
electoral votes to 136, with Senator
LaFollette at 13.

Recovers Consciousness After Lapse

More Sustained
TAKES NOURISHMENT
Cambridge, Mass., Nov. 7.-The
( condition of Senator Cabot Lodge who
suffered a stroke at the Charles
Gates Hospital Wednesday remained
grave tonight, according to his phy-
sicians after lying for nearly 48
hours in a state of coma. Senator
Lodge today regained consciousness
and took a little nourishment. To-
night the bulletin announced that the
Iperiod of consciousness had been
more sustained and that he had taken
more nourishment since noon.
"Senator Lodge's physical condi-
tion remains grave," the bulletin is-
sued at 6:15 o'clock by Dr. John H.
Cunningham and Frederick H. Wins-
low stated. "Since noon he has taken
more nourishment and periods of
consciousness have been more sus-
tained."
On arousing from his long period
of unconsciousness today the Senator
drew a watch from Dr. Cunningham's
pocket and looked at it. Yesterday he
was able to speak a few words to
those at his bedside. His physicians
today commented on his vitality
which has enabled the Senator, whc
is in his 75th year, to continue his
fight for life throughout the two day
period through which 'little hope was
held out for him and during which
times death was expected momen-
tarily.

These 1,100 megaphones, are of the
same type as used at the Wisconsin
game and will have the words of "The
Victors," "Varsity," and the "Yellow

The Gargoyle, campus humor maga-

Parker Lee number. Aided to some
small extent by Halsey Davidson, '25,
managing editor, this young man prac-'
tically wrote the whole of a fairly
passable November issue. Of coursej
the art department had a few con-1

essentially the majority of the work

brought before us rather too often in
the course of the twenty pages of jokes

same pen is also clever.
Turning to the art work, the best
contribution one could find was M. B.
Tunnicliffe's "Library Language,"
that is, of course, excepting the cover.
