The meetings are held bi-weekly and alternately at the school and at the downtown building. The meetings have been unusually well at- tended, sometimes as many as sixty boys being present. Among the speakers who have addressed the club during the past year are Hon. Wm. A. Campbell, who spoke of the possibility of the one house state law-making body, Rev. Frederick Tyner, who spoke of oneis purpose in life, Rev. Freeman, whose topic was, MWhy l Adopted the Ministry as a Professionf' and Rev. Wolcott, who conducted a revival meeting at one of the downtown sessions. The club was represented at the Older Boys' Convention held in Owatonna, Minnesota, December lst, 2nd, and 3rd, by two delegates, Walter E. Johnson and Buford Swanson. Lvpon their return, the delegates addressed the club and reported the various things accomplished at the convention, and strong emphasis was laid by them on the fact that the South Hi-Y needed more stringent requirements, es- pecially with regard to moral standards and qualifications. As a result, the con- stitution was amended to so read that all applicants for membership must come up to a certain, definite code of morals. Cigarette smokers were barred, and a boycott was placed on those who were known to use profane or blasphemous language.

Dr. C. M. Jordan welcomed the old timers back in a most affectionate speech, and Frank Mooney, 795, responded by saying that the turning point in his life came when Dr. Jordan urged him to enter baseball. He explained that it was due to baseball alone that he stuck and finished his high school course. The club has been successful in reviving interest in our fast dying track work, and promised personal co-operation. Mr. Jorgens captured the first line of trenches by promising to encourage and stimulate this branch of sport. Members of the club were grilled in song, a happy future proposed by Ernest Stover, '93, The following officers were elected: Officers President ....... .......... ........
