CHAPEL SYSTEM
EXPLAINED.
The giowth of the college tins
\ear and the probable continued
giowth next year has caused con
side! able .speculation as to just what
arrangements for compulsory chapel
w ill be made next year.
\n iueiease in the fieshmau class
to 800 would overeiowd the old
chapel Nuineious suggestions have
been made, the most sensible of
winch seems to he the excusing of
all seniors. At am rate, no ac
cumulated cuts will he carried over
from tins }ear and any sophomore
who has accumulated cuts in his
freshman year, or any junior who
has been equally frugal will lose
Iheii advantage unless the cuts are
taken this Near. For instance, a
student nnlio lias attended chapel
100 times more than required may
absent himself twenty Nvceks this
Near, hut an} cuts left in June will
lie lost and cannot ho used the fol
lowing \ear, no matter what system
is adopted
The recent posting of cuts arc
only of those men. therefore, who
Ikino used up all accumulated ab
sences from previous Nears.
TWO-YEAR STUDENTS IN
BASKET-BALL.
All two-vear men who have any
basket-ball ability should icporl in
the armory on Tuesday and Thurs
da) evenings, from 8:30 until 10
o'clock.
The team nn ill he coached by
Bowes, ’if), Professor Crooks and
Manager Dcpuy Games Nvill be ar
ranged with the class teams and
cultural colleges" Jll his opinion,
it 1 caches people who cannot leave
the faun or the place of business,
possibly with some teams aNvay Al
ready some good material has been
found among the sixty candidates
nn ho have repoi led
Two teams will he picked from
each class and a final squad of fif
teen selected. Those retained on
the squad will he excused from gym
drill.
