NOTRE DAME SENIORS
SELECT CLASS POET

AT meeting Of the senior class
at Notre Dame, Wednesday evening.
Morrison Conway of Portland, Ore,
was elected class poet. A committee
was appointed by Pres. Harry New
ming to meet a committee of the sem
Tor law class for the purpose OF decid-
ing on the 1914 class pin. Mr.. New
ming also appointed a committee to
take charge of the senior ball, the
greatest of Notre Dame social events.
This bali is held annually on Easter
Monday night.
Treas. John Carroll was commits
stoned to collect funds for the flag
that will be presented to the univer-
sity by the 1914 men on Washington's
birthday. 1t was decided that at a
future meeting of both the four year
men and the senior law class the dedi-
cation of the Dome would be settled:
with regard TO class pins the 1914
men decided TO prepare a design and
submit to the faculty. This design,
whether accepted or not would be
the 1914 pin but it was thought that
this years senior class might set a
precedent by hitting upon a design
that would be used by all Nsotre
Dame senior classes to come.
