Skipping Yesterday.
 Notwithstanding the rain, a large crowd was present on the campus yes- terday afternoon to witness the selec- tion of members of the present junior class to membership in the three senior societies.
 The junior class was assembled in Q compact group before their fence and were surrounded by the rest of the stu dent body, together with a number of graduates and townspeople. Every available window in Durfee, Farnam and North was filled with ladies and their escorts, and the steps of Dwight hall and Alumni hall were likewise crowded
 Shortly after the chapel clock had chimed five R. M. Crosby, from Scroll and Keys, appeared between Battell and Durfee, while Eugene Hale, from Skull and Bones, approached from be- tween the library and Dwight hall. The excitement of the students at once rose to white heat.
 The last man chosen for each society is considered to be the honor man of the society. The first man taken is the Ssecond honor man. The skipping of Dwight Day as the first man for Bones was received with enthusiasm and was a very popular election. The re- maining elections followed in rapid manner. They were lacking in the usu- al surprises which generally accompa ny tap day." The men chosen were as follows:
