UNIVERSITY NOTES

Preparations are now we'll under
way for the publication of anothe,
Tumhleweed this year under the
auspices of the Junior class. Only
part of the staff has as yet been chos-
en-, Samuel Marble as editor-in-chief
and Warren w. Coke as business
manager. With the size student body
there is now attending the Univer-
sity and the aid they are able to give
the Annual the book should be an
immense success this year.
Clinton Brown visited at his home
in Aberdeen for several days after
the game there with the Normal last
Friday.
The Senior class election was held
last Friday with the following Off
GERS elected: president, Herbert
Hardy; vice president. Don C. Brown;
treasurer, Herschel V. Tenant; sec
rotary. Lottie NJ. S%tenniger. The
class is unusually small this year,
having only about twelve members,
three of whom are girls.
The school of violin of the Uni
yersity under the direction of Percy
Fullenwider has grown by leaps and
bounds the last two years. The en-
rcilment at the beginning of the fall
term this year was %, which is a very
good showing in view of the number
who will report for lessons later in
the year
The return of the victorious foot
ball team from Aberdeen was follow
ed by an enthusiastic demonstration
in chapel Saturday forenoon. Speech
es We're made celebrating the event
and cheers given which show the
part the team has in the hearts of the
students. The first game was of COM
p%aratively small Importance but re-
vealed to Coach Chadwick the places
to be strengthened for the next game
which will be played next Monday
on the local field with Huron college.
AS was announced in chapel sew
eral days ago the standard Of re-
q~uirements necessary to join a coll
lege society has been raised to 100
credits, the same number required
for enrolment in the freshman class.
For a number of years the require
ments for membership has been 100
credits and last spring the faculty
took action which will help mater
tally to raise the standard for college
societies. Incidentally, the prepara-
tory societies will reap the benefit of
this action and retain their members
longer than has heretofore been the
custom.
Miss Name l.. Ogin has not yet re-
turned from Minneapolis to take up
her work al Dean Of Women. of the
University. Her health is not yet of
the best but in all probability she will
be back soon.
During the past ten days the new
students have been rushed" to al

Last Monday each of the two ladies'
with the ultimate object of making
the eligible n think she is favored
above all the rest. The new student
will discover at this time that they
have more friends than they ever
dreamed of, and for which they will
perhaps assign the true reason. The
wise M will feast to his hearts con-
tent, accept the hospitality offered,
and then decide in the end and join
which society will offer him the most
congenial and true fellowship.
With the seniors now on the plat
form beside the faculty, the view now
presented to the general student body
is one of culture and wisdom which
perhaps is the more noticeable on the
east side of the room.
A number of visitors at thu Baptist
state convention, which is now in
session in this city, have taken adj
vantage of the opportunity to visit
the University. Some of the speak
ers have promised to address the stu
dents in chapel the latter part of the
week.
