This announcement was the only

nouncement continued to tne effect
that those- who did not so report
would bo placed on the records of the
department as dismissed without
an honorable discharge and as having
upsatisraetoryrecords. There rs little
change in the situation. One or two
of the dissatisfied men will probably
go back to their places. The ma

Attempt to Dcclaro Constitution
Illegal Fails No Change Mado
Members Mnst Pay
Their Dues.
An attempt to reopen the light
over the membership clause of the
recently adopted constitution of the
debating association was promptly
iquelrhed at the meeting ol the as
sociation last night.
The attempt came in the form ol
an 'ppeal I mm the decision f the
chair on the question of the legality
of the action taken at the last meet
ing when the constitution was adopt
ed. The point was raised that It ic
quires two-thirds or all those present
to iidopt the constitution. At the
last meeting the constitution was
iidopted by a vote of about live to
two. There were a large number
present who did not vote, it was
claimed by the opponents of the re
striction clause that the adoption
w;is not legal. This point was raised
last niuht but the "chair ruled that
the action was legal. An appeal was
then taken and the decision ol the
chair wiis sustained by a vote of
eleven to eleen.
This act ion is thought to be final
by the members who have been sup
porting the restriction clause. An
riumher of the opponentsofthecliiu.se
as it now stands also express the
opinion that the decision ought to
be taken as the judgmet of the as
sociation and that tne matter should
be dropped at present at least.
There is still a chance for another
fight however. One of the leaders ot
the anti-restriction element an
nounced in very poslthe tenns that
ill the next meeting ot thy associa
tion an amendment to strike out the
word unmle'J from the membership
clause would be Introduced. A mo
tion was passed last night restricting
the right to vote in future meetings
to those who hurl paid the regular
membership roe. The introduction
or the amendment will at least have
the effect of forcing the members to
pav up.
The meeting last night also chose
S. C. Hawthorn representative to
the Unlveisity council.

IMPROVEMENTS IN THE 11a ND.
At the last baud practice Pror.

tne Instrumentation of the band. A
few men were discontinued from play

bility to take the part assigned them.
They will bo given pilvato Instruc

Others were taken out of the section
to which they belonged becauso of its

probably be transferred to another
section as soon as instruments can bo
secured.
