Lee Enters 6ubernatorlaI Race

United States Senator Blair Lee has
ended all speculation as to his course in
the forthcoming Gubernatorial primary.
by declaring himself candidate for
nomination on the Democratic ticket
Senator Lee was defeated for the nom
ination four years ago in State conven-
ton by one vote.
The announcement of the Senator was
not received with joy on the part Of or
ganization politicians, who are casting
about for candidate upon whom they
can unite in the hope of defeating Lee,
whose progressive policies are not to
their liking. They see in his candidacy
lineup in the September primaries be-
tween the regular organization and the
national administration forces. which are
expected to support Lee, who is supposed
to be close to President Wilson. 1t will
be strenuous and interesting battle.
In announcing himself Senator Lee
said 81 am candidate for the Demo
cratic gubernatorial nomination. The
work here in Congress will keep me busy
until March 4, and maybe longer. Then
Baltimore city will naturally occupy the
attention of city voters and the interest
of the whole State until the mayoralty
is disposed of in May. That will leave
sufficient time in which to make an
active state camDaipn.
81 shall seek the nomination with 9
view of cementing the Democratic forces.
If elected, shall continue that as g
policy of administration. always confident
of course, that every true democrat will
demand faithful service to all the people

for that occasion" In 1893, ''the cor
poration having been informed that
the custom taken up in the college for
the commencers to have plum cake Is
dishonorable to the college. not CRATE
full to wise men and chargeable to the
parents of the commencers, do there
fore put an end to that custom" In
1927 a private commencement was de-
termined upon and was observed for
several years. but was not success.
The laws of 1874 provided that mo
commencers shall have at his cham

uors or composition made with any of
