SelzThree of the four class presidentsare not serving at the present time.John Thomas, senior head, resignedyesterday, due to ineligibility. FrierMcCollistcr, president of the juniors,is out of residence, and Charles Duval,leader of the frosh, is also ineligible.It is plain some method of deter¬mining the permanence of class offic¬ers is necessary. Suggestion of fac¬ulty intervention in student electionsis not pleasant; but it is evident theundergraduate body is not using thefreedom given it in cliosing leaders inthe proper way.Which suggests what Art Cody isreputed to have said about the Honorcommission. I am sure he is right,for it seems to me the Honor senti¬ment is fairly well developed now ascompared with the first year I was in college. But if he is correct, it ismerely another instance of student in¬ability to assume the rights allowedthem by the authorities. What is thematter with the undergraduates here?They continually clamor for more lib¬erty but don’t know what to do with itwhen they get it.The Better Yet hop seems to be re¬solving itself into a campus institution.Friday night dates for it are becomingthe usual thing. Which is quite as itshould be. A campus that lias every¬thing else ought to have a weeklyUniversity dance.The Cap and Gown reports that allgoes smoothly, that the <1924 book willbe a world-beater, that. . . . Andthat the seniors have been slow inpaying the dollar engraving costswhich they are assessed for the ap¬pearance of their pictures. Members of the defunct Three-Quarters club which destroyed $75.00worth of Freshman property on thefirst night of the club’s reorganization,Oct. 26 last, will be asked to donateto a fund to repay the six Freshmenwho lost articles, by Dean E. H. Wil¬kins and Paul Barry, former presi¬dent, in a letter sent this morning toall club memers in residence. Thesum of one dollar from each of theclub Sophomores and fifty cents fromthe Junior and Seniors will e ampleto provide for the fund.Dean Wilkins made an informal an¬nouncement of this last Fridaj' noonat a meeting of the club, which wasattended by twelve members.The damage, which consisted chieflyin loss of small articles of clothingand accessories, has been reported toDean Wilkins by the six Freshmenwho suffered. In each case, the Deancarefully investigated before grantingthe validity of any claims, and as¬sures the club members that there isno injustice in any of the demands.The case of one Freshman, who re¬ported that a fifty dollar suit wasutterly ruined through having thepants ripped open at both knees,which incensed many on the campus,is thoroughly substantiated, and theclaim allowed. Other Freshmen lostfountain pens, pipes, or neckties.Dean Wilkins points out that noone is required to pay, and that nodisciplinary measures will be inflictedfor failure in payment.“Everyone who took part,” he said,“in the club’s opening on October 26,and those who in past years havegiven the club its reputation for roughbouse should feel responsible for allthe damage done. I will not compelthem to pay, but I feel that their con¬sciences should dictate that they doso.”The letter to the club members fol¬lows:At the last meeting of the Three-Quarters club a considerable amountof damage to or loss of Freshmanproperty resulted. Mr. Wilkins askedin Freshman chapel that Freshmenwho had suffered such damage reportto him. The damage thus reportedamounted to about $150.00; but this(Continued on page 2)ASK FACULTY TOSUPPORT STUDENTFRIENDSHIP DRIVEFaculty members are in ited by thecommittee headed by John F.
