Tag day or debaters' day, sometimes known as Election day, caused feverish excitement. McPherson takes presidency followed by Halliday and Rinehart. March March comes with more rain to gladden the hearts of the baseball heroes, all fraring to go, led by Captain Al Rego. The track boys and Captain Buck Baker discover that they are slow, having no living capacity, slow on the pick up, bad at distances, putrid at shot, dashes and miserable at everything in general. CT'he coach then gets tired.j April April proves a month of noises. First is the operetta, The Fire Prince, trying to discover talent among a thousand willing soprano howls. It is found, however, and appreciated by even the mute, who can feast his eyes on settings and elaborate costumes. A dismal noise is heard when the Macs defeated Rosie's swatters, 6-4, but it soon vanishes when Uni. gives Teddy an 8-4 victory.

May A screaming success is the Girls' Issue issued this term, according to the boys it is more of a scream than a success. Pertosa, Neuvohner, Bunneke and Alm- quist contort the successful scream.

It was the diplomas that cause the Hercules development. The Senior Ball is a success among successesg those who donit dance comment on the other fellows, garb. A week before the ball, many noses get out of joint from Of Course I'm going to the Senior Ball. Then june also sees the completion of this red, red Lariat. F01'fy-six
