EXCHANGES.
Johns Hopkins University will
inaugurate a push-ball soap for the
first time between the fresh
men and sophomore classes.
It is hoped that greater class spirit
will be secured by this means.
A large number of students of
both sexes at Swarthmore are up in
arms against' the stringent social
rules in force at that college. More
social functions and less restrictions
are the demands.
The honor system is meeting
with both successes and reverses.
At F. &M. it has been adopted
at Yale it has met with defeat.
That it can be enforced has been
shown by the fact that the Univer
sity of Chicago recently punished
14 students for cheating in exami
nations.
Athletic authorities at Lafayette
are considering a rule by which
scholarship will be made a very im
portant factor in the selection of
assistant managers for athletic
teams.
The Swarthmore Co-Eds have
decided that they will hold a track
meet this year instead of the cus
tomary May Day Dance.
The students at W.> & J. have de
cided that no smoking will be per
mitted on the campus during school
hours.
Lafayette College has honored
Mayor Blankenburg of Philadelphia
by conferring upon him the degree
of Doctor of Laws.
A New Chemistry Society.
The sophomore straight chemists
have recently organized into an as
sociation which is to be known
hereafter as the T. T. Society and
whose purpose is to stimulate and
cultivate an interest in scientific
matters. Meetings are held on
every second Wednesday evening,
subjects interesting and profitable
to those studying chemistry are
brought up and discussed, papers
on scientific subjects are prepared
and read, and the good time ele
ment is encouraged along with the
more serious side of affairs. The
society, though small, is an am
bitious one, and once on its feet, it
expects to do big things.
Sphinx Elections.
The following members of the
sophomore class have been elected
into the honorary society of the
Sphinx; W. W. Wood, G. E. Hes
selbacher, R. E. Geary, H. C. Yer
ger, Jr., C. C. McDowell, L. R,
Austin, B. C. Jones, W. C. Schroed
er, J. A. Watson.
Drill Exercise.
The entrants in the handicap cross
country run held before Easter
were excused from Gymnasium
drill only, not military drill as
might be inferred from the last is
sue of the Collegian.

AGRICULTURAL NOTES.
It is expected that the Horticul
tural Building will be completed

dedicatory exercises.
The room in the Agricultural
Building which ‘ has been used for
stock judging purposes will be
furnished for a Students’ Club
Room. The Agricultural Society
is taking an active interest in this
matter and it is hoped that all of
the students taking courses in Agri
cu'ture will assist in furnishing the
room.
