Difference of Opinion Ap- parent Among Members As to Whether Organiza- tion Will Survive Inroads of the Matrimonial God

There is a difference of opinion among the members of the Bachelors Club as to whether or not the organi- Zation will be in existence this winter. Since the popular club gave it's clos ing affair of the season last spring some half dozen or more of it's most prominent leaders have lost in battle with Cupid until scarcely more than thirty remain in the membership list. According to certain of these "elig- ibies" the club will continue as an inn portant factor in the Phoenix social life. while others disagree, declaring it will be impossible to carry out it's program Of former years under present conditions
 The Bachelors Halloween dance has always inaugurated the season, but as vet, no cards have been issued for this years function. In fact, Lester By ron. secretary and treasurer of the club lnsinuateS that there will not be a dance.
 There is hardly a chance of holding the Halloween ball, but of course noth- ing of a definite character will be de- cided until tNe return of the president Lindley Calhoun Morton, who is out Of town. One thing is certain, the club cannot continue under it's present by laws and constitution. There are too many associate members and the pres sure on the active members is too great The Club must reorganize" said MT. Byron emphatically.
 Roy Murray, on the other hand in dignantly denied that there was any danger of the Bachelors Club going under
 'Its neither dead nor dying" said MT. Murray, "'But like the state fair will he bigger and better than ever"
 While he believes the October func- tion willl be held. he admits that new members will be necessary to the life Of the club.
 He pooh hOoed the idea that the Phoenix bachelors did not pay their so . clal obligations except by means of q card to club dance. Mir. Murray asked what greater social attention a bachelor could extend and when the way Of dinner and theatre party was pointed out, he seconded the sugges- ti"n as commonplace. Its done all the tme he said with scorn.
