|. n. GEORGE WINS
STUDENT ELECTION
Georgetown Law School
Athletic Representative.
PRESIDENTS SUSTAINED
He Had Been Selected by Class Execu-
tives, But the Act Was
Questioned.

Last night at the law department of
the Georgetown University on + street.
between Fifth and Sixth streets, the
4oGr Glasses held a mass meeting TO de-
etce whether or not the action Of the
presidents of the different classes should
Be upheld III their selection of Isaac y
George as the representative OF the law
department on the executive committee
OF the athletic association.
1t seems that the presidents took the
move in appointing Efr- George to care
for the interests Of this branch of the
local institution. instead OF calling a
meeting and having an election. because
the members. of the advisory board had
always been chosen in this way In
their opinion il was up 10 them TO also
choose a representative committee in a
similar manner. and accordingly several
weeks ago they got together and the
selection of Mr. George was unanimous.
When the athletic association commit
tee met some time ago. the right Of Mr..
George TO sit with them was questioned
and they decided that he did not have
the right.
Foy Led Opposition.
Then it was that several members Of
the second-year class got busy and held
a meeting for the purpose of inquiring
into The legality of the course of the
president 1t was decided az this gath
ering that the act was unconstitutional
and the members of the class. headed by
Mr.. FOy. '07. who seemed particularly
anxious that the wrong should be
righted, demanded a meeting of all the
classes Of the law school for the pur-
pose OF either repudiating or ratifying
the step Of the class executives.
Mr.. Keegan was made temporary
chairman, last night, and Mr. Foy offer
ed a resolution, declaring the selection
of Mr.. George Illegal and calling upon
the stud mt body TO repuGiaJe the step
taken by the president and 10 Mi the
place by popular election.
Speeches were made by Messrs Glib
son, English Slatery Grogan. Hnlver.
and Lusk- the two last mentioned be-
ing the only ones besides Foy who spoke
IN favor of another man for the coveted
hOnor. Some hard feeling was diSulav-
Cd and some dirty linen wa1 washed
George Wins Out
When the ballots were counted. Mr.
George was found 10 have been chosen
to represent the law school on the com
mittee by an overwhelming major. "
The president of tho utnletic associa-
ton viii be furnished with a copv of
the resolutions offered by Mr.. Fov and
