FIRST CANDIDATE FIR POSITION
Former Contests Promise Warm Elec
. tlon for New President.
The political pot was set taL boiling
In the sophomore class by the an
nouncement of the first candidate for
president, -Carl Naglo.
Naglo Is a member of the Delta Tau
fraternity,, and has been prominent in
athletics as a .momber of last year's
freshman football' team and this year's
basketball Bquad. He is also a mem
ber of the Iron Sphinx.
Every previous eleotion of the pres
ent sophomore class has been exciting
and hotly contested, and this one
promises to bo no exception. Yester
day mysterious rumors of secret meet
ings and political collusions wore
noised about the campus. For a while
It was heard that a suffragette would
appear upon the field, but this rumor
has since been discredited.
A clash between two prominent or
ganizations of the class seems immi
nent. Opposing politicians are mar
shalling all tleir forces for the com
ing battle, and the signs of tho times
point to stirring events in tho future.
'No definite Information could be ob
tained, but if these expectations come
true, there will bo a political light
without a precedent In the history of
tho school.

REGISTRATION BETWEEN CLASS
HOURS MAKES FOR
EFFICIENCY.
January 18, 1912.
To the Students:
Tho action of tho Senate in requir
ing registration during vacant hours
between class periods is a part of a
general movement to increase effici
ency by avoiding waste of time. It Is
not to be expected that the system will
work absolutely smoothly in all cases.
If you find no difficulty, please toll It
to tho reporters; they arc tired of
complaints and will enjoy cheerful
hows. If you meet-.unexpected diffi
culties, report to my secretary; per
hapB wo can overcome them so that
you can still toll conscientiously how
well the system works.
Late Registration Expected.
Xo student who has made a reason
able effort to register during tho time
allotted and is unable to do so through
no fault of his own, will bo charged-a
fee for lato registration. Excuses
from laboratory exorcises will bo free
ly given if students find it difficult to
register at other times.
S. AVERY,
Chancellor.
