present century as a means of pro-
moting the construction of a Union

presented in 1907. The most suc-
cessful was "Cotton Stockings," pro-

East. The last show was "Give Us

of a belief that architecture owes to
the world a finer place in which to
live, a freer philosophy, and an in-

called the Architectural Council. Four
are elected at large from the entire
school and four are elected by class
vote. The officers are in turn elected
from and by the Council.

are related to the Council by their
class representatives. It is the aim of
the organization to create a more
unified feeling throughout the dif-
ferent classes in respect to school
functions. For this reason, class ad-
ministration is carried on through
the cooperation of the class officers
and the Council.
