CLUB WOMEN TAG VOTERS
FOR FAv0RITE CANDIDATE
Anti-SuffragetteS in MaeIstrom
of Chicago Politics

CHICAGO, Nov. 5.-Club women of
the North Shore, advocates of votes for
women and anti-suffragettes, have
found themselves thrust into the mael-
strom of Chicago politics, and today
will appear in the role of "taggers" in
the downtown district in behalf of a
candidate for municipal court judge.
There is no money involved in this
tagging process-nothing but good will
for the cause of the man they are back
ing. Pedestrians will be asked not for
donations, but simply to wear tag
extoiiing the merits of the iawyer-can-
didate.
A short time ago the North End club,
an exclusive women's club, gave a
bazaar They became involved over
copyright in producing a spectacle.
The lawyer gave his legal services to
the women without charge. That is
the reason he numbers them among his
exclusive supporters today.

Scholarships Abolished.

One of the most important pieces
of business transacted at the meet
ing of the board of regents of Wash
ington State College last week was
the adjustment of the plan of grant
ing students free scholarship
to one student from each county. The
scholarship provided for free room
rent and the elimination of labora-
tory fees. the students rooming at
the college domitories and the col
lege standing the expense.
The free scholarship plan was in
stituted in the early days of the col
lege the idea being to secure student
representatives of each county in
the state. 1t was decided by the board
of regents that the plan has out
lived its usefulness as the college en-
rollment now includes several stu
dents from each county in the state
and the abolition of the plan will
place 81 rooms in the dormitories at
the disposal of the college for rent
to students. The scholarships were
formerly granted by the board Of
county commissioners of each county.
