university class pin Is at last broafht
toa. point from which there can-bo
no withdrawal. Tho agitation for tho
standard pin began last year, and;sov
oral of tho members of tho class of
1908 thoroughly favored fixing' upon a
standard design. Thoro was nVt time
enough thon, howover, to socu'fotUo
necessary support, for a,n idea at that

Whether" or not foe1 standard idea
will prevail in the future depends en

have no power to bind others. than
themselves. It is hoped that other
classes' will, however, follow suit now
that the way has been brokoa. , ,
