The Candidates Brown and Ramsey Shaw and Miller Dobbs and ' Nelson Weaver In MO. : Altho it is yet pretty early to toll definitely what developments the class political situation will take, a number of candidates are already in the field, and in some classes the contest is wax ing warm. In the Senior class the candidates are W. C. Ramsey and T. A. Browne and their supporters are waging a vig orous campaign in their behalf. Mr. Ramsey is in his seventh year in the University and will tako both his Law and Academic degrees this year. Ho was captain of Company C two years 'ago and was Captain of the Pershing Rifles last year. He was rooting leader two years ago and has been identified with many interests of the University. He is a member of Phi Kappa Psi and Phi Delta Pltf." Mr. Brown has always been prominently active in class affairs and is very popular with his class mates. He is a member of Alpha Theta Chi fraternity. In the Junior class several men have been spoken of. Ora J. Shaw seems to be making the strongest cam paign thus far and his friends are ex pressing confidence in the outcome. A. -H. Miller is said to bo about to enter ' the field in earnest and as his football record is excellent he will probably .prove a Strong candidate. fi Sophomore "politick promise to fur mlsh the warmest fight of any class. ".The. Iron Sphinx was 'first in the field fcWith its candidto, Roy Nelson, who is yprobably the strongest man in the fac tion,, and will undoubtedly make a hot fight for the place. Stuart P. Dobbs Is the only man who has thus far appeared against the Sphinx candi date. Dobbs is a popular'momber of the class who has been prominent in its affairs. He is a sergeant in D company, a member of the University debating squad, and was vice-president of '09 the first semester of his Freshman year. In the Freshman class so far there is only one candidate in the field for the presidency, Lawrence "Weaver. Weaver is a popular man among his .classmates and will undoubtedly make a strong run for the place no matter 'who his opponent may be. He is the oniy Freshman who won a place on the Debating Squad. Ho Is a graduate 'gt the Beatrice High School which he represented several times in inter scholastic debate. The character of candidates in the field seems to .indicate that the mem bers of the various classes will have no diffculty in choosing men who are In every way competent and fitted to give a fair -administration. The Seniors at the Lincoln High School this year will produce' for their annual class play George Ade's "Just Out of College," and the Juniors will put on Arthur Wing Pinero's "The Magistrate.'' Both of the plays are to be coached liy members of the Univer sity Dramatic Club. . - vkf : ffr 5JK Ml ,3l TtLllMttBH W. G. Hamilton, C. A. Johnson, Bl Bay, A. Smith, 0. Wollonslck,H. Hurlburt, A. L.
