tapped as treasurer
Thirteen crimson gowned sen
iors, tired of their four long years
of work to attain membership into
the highest men's honorary on th
Nebraska campus, turned over the
priceless keys of their secert ar
chives to 13 enthusiastic juniors,
ready to carry on the duties, as the
traditional tappings of Innocents
ended the gala Ivy day festivities,
yesterday afternoon.
In a drama that brought cries
and tears of enthusiasm from a
crowd of anxious students and par
ents, each new member, after
being tapped by outgoing Inno
cents, took his place in the organi
zatlon which fosters campus tradl
tions and is supreme in the word
of the activity man.
Boucher tapped first.
In an atmosphere that was tense
with anticipation, the 13 members
of the society surrounded and
tapped their first new member
Chancellor C. S. Boucher. Sur
rounded by active and honorary
members of the society he was led
to the dais to receive an honorary
membership in the Innocents.
Tapped as president of the 36th
society of Innocents was Roger
Cunningham, college of agriculture
