 A meeting of the sophomore class, which was rather poorly attended, was held last night to elect fence orator. H. A. Bayne was the only one nominated and therefore was elected unanimously. It was feared a year ego that the time honored custom of formally granting portion of the fence to the freshmen by the aophs would be abolished by the loss of the fence where Osborn hall now stands. But tho new fence in front of Durfes is quite as much of meeting place as the old one, and this custom of fence ora- uons bids fair to continue for many years to como. Is'is grand opportunity for the ora tors to display their wit and many jests at the expense of each other and the opposing classes.
