Since alumni are no longer per mitted to vote for tho student mem bers tf tho board, but havo the prlvl- ogo of olocting a member of their own, tho influence of tho T. N.'E.'s has not boon so pronounced. Nevertheless, their candidates quietly appear as usual with no indications of tho ma chine which backs them. All the In- fluenco possible is brought to bear in order to elect these mon. But tho old days of getting all the graduates, to como to tho university and voto for tho T. N. E. has boon dono away with in a groat measure. Attitude of University. Tho attitude of tho university stu dents at the present time sooms to bo strongly antagonistic to tho secret or 'ganizatlon.
