BALTIMORE is SELECTED
FOR MEET OF AID CLUBS
City Wins Next Convention, Beating
Out Toronto-Officers Are
Elected.

DALLAS. Tex, May 24.-In one of the
most spectacular fights ever waged in
the Associated Advertising Clubs of
America, Baltimore won out yesterday
and was selected as the next convention
city. The selection came after a week
of the most strenuous kind of campaign
ing, conducted by the entire Baltimore
delegation.
Balloting for the next convention city
resulted in total of 565 votes for Balti-
more and 4O7 votes for Toronto. San
Francisco withdrew from the fight. throw
ing its strength equally between Toronto
and Baltimore Votes Of Texas were split
equally between the contending cities as
a matter of courtesy.
The last session of the convention
opened with the election of officers for
the ensuing year. George w. Coleman
was reelected president without any OPP
position. Frederick E. Johnson Of Dallas
was elected first vice president. and p.
s. F1orea was reelected secretary for
his fourth term G. d. Mekeel was re-
elected treasurer.
The Dallas Advertising Club presented
the English delegation with huge Texan
nag. On the opening day Of the conven-
ton the Texans received an English flag
from the delegation representing London.
One resolution adopted and which was
received with great favor was to the ef-
feet that hereafter the convention city
would not be voted on by the clubs
at large, but would be selected by the ex-
ecutive committee.
Today the circle tour OF the state began.
Waco was the first city to be visited
after which the convention members
moved to Houston, SanA Antonio and
Galveston in social capacity.

FRAT MEN ARE HAzED
BY SENIORS AT YALE
Locked Outside Grounds and
Made to Climb Over Glue
BeSmeared Gates.

NEW HAVEN, Conn, May 24.-Mem-
bers of the three senior secret societies
at Yale were locked out Of their rooms
early today by students of the senior
class not members Of the fraternities,
and were forced to submit to taunts and
jeers outside the gate at the entrance to
Vanderbilt Hall on the campus, while
those inside the Enclosure danced around
a big bonfire on which was piled furni-
ture. bedding and any other material
which came handy.
The senior societies meet Thursday
evenings and the members leave the
chapter houses shortly after midnight;
The appearance of the fraternity men at
Vanderbilt courtyard was the signal for
the other students gathered there to start
the bonfire and close the gates.
Climb Over Glued Gates.
The fraternity men after futile attempts
to enter their dormitories by ladders
placed at the windows were forced to
climb over the iron gates, which had been
covered with thick glue. Only one ex-
ception was made. Scroll and Keys man
being allowed to get into his room. For
nearly two hours they were kept outside,
when they were requested by the seniors
inside the Enclosure to climb over the
gate, one man at a time, as his name
was called.
While the demonstration was in prog
ress Dean Frederick s. Jones Of the
academic department. appeared on the
scene and asked the men to desist. No
attention was paid to his request, how
ever.
Coming closely after the recent mock
tap day" ceremony on the Yale campus
which preceded the annual ceremony by
one day, this latest demonstration was
the subject of excited comment about the
campus today.

Departures in Tuxedo Dress.

departures IN tuxedo Dress.
One Of the pointed needs Of Tuxedo
dress has long been a hat confessedly its
own. The ordinary black derby or AL
pine is bereft of the evening air-too day
timey." 1t is worn because, seemingly,
nothing else will serve, for neither the
distinguished silk topper" nor the ex-
tinguished opera hat is allowable with
the dining jacket. There is no agreeable
uniformity about the hats that accompany
Tuxedo clothes. Every man is "a law
unto himself and most men are bungling
lawmakers.
At last the arbiters of fashion over sea
have hit upon a Tuxedo hat which is
characterize. Made of black velour and
tilted at an angle, it Is notably smart"
and lends an engagingly ornate air to
informal evening dress.
At the rendezvous of fashion where the
best dressed set dimes, sups and lounges

instead of the .stodgy' derbies and nom
descript soft hats formerly worn.
Another departure in Tuxedo dress is
the straight standing collar attached to
the shirt. This is favored by the fashion
finical for no other reason than that the
crowd" wears wing and double fold col
lars.
