Is the custom of the Hilltop institution
to place the reins Of management In
the hands OF the man who has served
a years apprenticeship as an assistant.
The candidates for the position must be
members OF one Of the two lower
classes, the upper classmen being In
eligible for the office. Accordingly the
freshmen and sophomores of the Blue
and Gray school have selected their
men. and from now until the election
the Heights will be astir with student
politics. ......
The 1914 classmen are backing Franz,
Ryan, of Elizabeth, N. j., for the

his first year on the Heights, having
entered tho class of 1915 in September
from Loyola Preparatory School, OF
New York city. At Loyola Barrett wa.
considered to be the best all-around
athlete in the school, and his record
as a school boy seems to prove this
During his course Barrett was chosen
as captain for both the football and
the schools basketball quint. as well
as winning several points In inter.
schlastic competition as a pole vaultcr
all of which demonstrates his versatile
accomplishments.

nomination, 1t can be seen that great
credit Is due Barrett on his ability tc
overcome this precedent. From his

promises to give Ryan struggle fol

team, will be read and voted on. and
some action will probably be taken

that a decided change will be recon-.
mended.
