Tho sdcond series of tests for tho Gleo .and Mandolin Clubs was con tinued last night, but not so many men turned up,-a largo number having gono to Omaha to see the electrical parade.

Ill last -Tuesday morning during tho chapel hour and discussed tho fea sibility of a girls' gleo. club. Every body seemed qui to enthusiastic over tho proposition, and it was docldod that immediate seps bo taken to or- ganlzo tho club. In order that thoro might be somo organized body behind tho movemont, It was decided to'havo the Black Masque push tho project. It is tho purpose of tho club to as sist tho main Glee Club In Its annual homo concert to bo given this winter. If this turns out as successfully as It should, Manager Dirks has promised tho girls that ho will give them a trip through tho state, If proper arrange ments can bo made. Chancellor .An drews Is hoartlly In favor of tho plan and has made arrangements so that tho members of tho club may redelvo oho hour credit each somestor for their trouble. This, togethor with tho pros pect of a trip next sprlngBhould prove most attractive to tho co-eds, and doubtless a largo number will respond to tho call for candidates when It is Issuod. ' f Senior Election. .. Tho .first meeting of tho Senior class was to have been, hold yesterday morn ing', but on account of the special con vocation hadto bo postponed until somo umo next weeic prooauiy 'jues day morning. At this meeting tho. . . M president for tho present Bemestorns to bo olected, and as this is a ydry responsible position on account of the number of appointments which Iho president will have to'mako, soyoral candidates have announced their will ingness to servo, and tho supporters of two of them have been very actlvo In lining up tholr friends. ' Rumor has It that tho chief contest is, to ho be tweon tho Sphinx and Innocent- 'So cieties, but this Is hardly true, as sev eral of tho mos.t actlvo partisans '.bo long to both societies. Tho candidate ,whoso chances seem to bo tho bettor at this time isDon; Skeen, Mr. Skeen is a raetfical stu dent and will hayp tho support of,tho solid medico delegation. Ho is also an Innocent ajnd a Sphinx but, is said to bo tho candldato of tho lattor so? cloty. Mr. Skeen 'is captain of Com, pany B and Is very popular among hi classmates, and would undoubtedly make a' very able president. ' 1 Another candidate whoso name Is frequently mentioned Is L. H. Wouon sick. Mr. Wcllenslck is an Innocent, and presumably .has tho 'support of that organization. ". Tho new president will have a num ber ;of Important committees .to name, chief among them being the Senior Book Committee- As tho Sbnior Book' Is tho only publication which will ap pear this year, ltIs, of course, Impera tive that it bo of -extraordinarily good 1 quality. . hi I ' '3k9 v . s & ' 4 .;!M ..: :. -v 11 A f- Jfi f ( ' ! ?" v 4..
