Glee Club Trip
Arrangements have been com

the northwestern part of the state
during the week of May 11. Leav
ing at noon, Monday, the club will
sing in Lock Haven Monday night;
Erie, Tuesday night; Jamestown,
N. Y., Wednesday night; Warren,
Thursday night; and possibly in
Titusville, Friday. At all the
towns on the route great prepara
tions are being made by alumni for
entertaining the singers, and the
guarantees of over a hundred dol
lars per night insure the financial
success of the expedition. So far,
none of our clubs have covered this
particular territory, in spite of the
fact that many of our students
come from that district. Some
dozen or more members of the
Mandolin Club will go with the
Glee Club. The program rendered
will be a mixture of the best of this
and last year’s numbers.
1915 Class Actions
Last Thursday night the juniors
called a class meeting, the object
of which was to take up matters
relative to the Prom .this year.
Various plans both for carrying on
and financing the affair were
brought up and discussed, among
them being the suggestion that
tents be used for bootns and all the
floor space thus given over for
dancing.
It was also decided that there
should be no cutting of the front
campus until after May first. A
similar action had previously been
taken by the seniors, and the green
growing things in said locality may
thrive in untrodden serenity until
after the fatal day.
The F. and M. Weekly recom
mends enlistment for those seniors
who are tired of their thesis work.
The Oberlin Review goes one step
farther and asks the seniors to
seriously consider military life as
a permanent occupation.
