Skull and 'Bones Adopts New Tapping System; Assigns 'Point Values 'The point system of tapping has been adopted 'by Skull and Bones, William Morton, president, announced today. The new system has assigned point values for each campus ac tivity. Each activity's point eval uation will be in direct propor tion to the time and effort that the participants in thiS activity spend toward the betterment of the College, Morton explained. Elective offices are rated high er than appointive positions, and no one activity is alloted suffi cient points to assure member ship. To insure that a member's character qualifications will be on a leyel worthy of membership in the society, Skull and Bones ha.s maintained the right of blackball. The idea of the point system was originated by Mervin Wilf, Skull and Bones alumnus, and George Donovan, Student Union manager. The present members of the organization gave this plan unanimous approval at their last meeting. Thespians . are looking for male singers for their forthcoming prOduction. Tryouts will be held in Schwab auditorium, tomorrow night at 7:30 p. m. All original song manuscripts Should be turned in to Pat La•- made, Music Office, Carnegie Hall, any time this week.
