A new method of decorating the roof girders of the gymnasium was adopted this year. A flatroof was built above the galleryconsisting of bunting in the collegecolors on the edges, and interwovenpine ropes in the centre. Numbersof small block Ms outlined in incan­descent lights were suspended fromthe gallery. On one side of the hall,in the middle, was a huge illumin­ated "1906" while on the oppositeside above the chaperones' booth"Michigan" was spelled out inlights. Calcium lights stationed atvarious points along the gallerywere used to produce beautifulcolor effects on the dancers below.Fischer's World's Fair Orchestraon one side of the gallery playedthe regular dances, while Finzel'sband on the opposite side playedthe intermissions. Various amus­ing' "stuntS"- were worked-iii bythe mnsicians, the best of whichconsisted of a shower of miniatureyellow and blue footballs upon thedancers. The souvenir dance pro­gram this year was encased in agreen leather card Case, the outsideof which bore a small copper seal ofthe University.About three hundred couples at­tended the hop and there weretwenty-four booths including theindependent booth and the chap­erones' booth. The grand marchstarted a little before ten o'clock,the dancing being continued till3 0' clock with an intermission forrefreshments. Only thirty-six ofthe fifty two regular dances had.been completed when the regents'orders for closing were carried outby the electricians gradually.cutting off the lights.A special performance was givenaSaturday afternoon by the Comed,.Club for the hop guests, and theproduction was better than the in­itial one. In the evening came theAnnual Home Concert of the mus­ical clubs at University Hall. Thework of the clubs was unuscal1ygood, and several first class novel­ties were presented by the GleeClub. The guests were entertainedafter the concert by dancing partiesat the fraternity houses. Many ofthe girls left Sunday afternoon andthe rest left on the morning tramsMonday. A. M.

Lack of routing cars producescongestion at the center of thetown, and makes it practically im­possible for one to use the surfacecars to go from one part of thedown town district to another.Besides the unnecessary congestionthus caused, the companies losemuch profitable short haul business... Briefly stated, there are three'things which are absolutely neces­sary to a successful solution of theproblem in '�hicago: unification,through routes. and electrification."Immediate municipal ownershipis impossible because of the city'sfinancial difficulties, and the lengthof time necessary to condemn theproperties. I, myself, am a firmbeliever in municipal ownership,but until we are ready for it, Iwould advocate granting the com­pany a franchise on the .eonditionof their making the:' necessary improvements and agreeing to sur­render their holdings to the cityat any time for a reasonable rernun­eration. I would be willing to givemore than the actual value of thetangible property if the companieswould retire without long -and ex­pensive litigation." IJI. M U 8 It ,.
