They also stand: a good show of gaining three morepoints in the high jump and pole­vault.In yesterday'S Wisconsin DailyCardinal the annual Wisconsin hardluck story appeared which tells thatonly twenty-five men have come outfor track work and that the men areall out of condition. It goes on tosay that McEachren has only beentraining since Monday, and thatBreitkreutz is behind in his studiesand will not appear in the meetagainst Chicago. We of Chicagohave seen this story every. yearas our first meet with Wisconsincame around, and are placing theusual amount of credence in it.

Inresponse to this appeal a motion toput the suggestion into effect wasunanimously carried.Miss Frances A.

Its objects are to stimu­late interest in the work of the Uni­versity Settlement; to give regular,substantial support to the efforts ofthe University Settlement Board; tostudy and discuss social movements;and to have the benefit of a commoninterest among the women of theorganization.The work has been quietly butsteadily growing, and there are now140 members. It may not be gener­ally understood that Fellows andgraduate students, and all womengraduates are entitled to. attend theopen meetings of the League, andmay become active members by pay-ing the regular dues. ;The meetings occur every thirdTuesday in the month. There isalways �.p3;pJ!r given on some subjecto(vital sociological interest, as tene­ment buildings, child labor, and thesweat-shop system, followed, by anopen discussion.In connection with the practicalwork of the League it may be in­structive to mention that the box on.the right in Cobb Hall is owned and'controlled by the League. It bears.the inscription, "Please deposit inthis box books of reference, periodi­cals, and illustrated papers, for theuse of the University of ChicagoSettlemen t."The officers' of the League for the'present year are as follows: Presi­; dent, Mrs. Charles Richmond Hen­derson; Vice-President, Mrs. RichardGreen Moulton; Recording Secre­tary, Mrs. Starr Willard Cutting;Corresponding Secretary, Mrs.Benja­min Stites Terry: Treasurer, Mrs.,Harry Pratt Judson; Directors (1902-,04), Mrs. Cutting, Mrs. Francis Way­'land Parker, Mrs. George Cushing: Sikes.Next Tuesday evening at 8:30 at theWoman's Union, a social meeting. will beheld for the Y.
