All over the state there are busses being driv en by boys of high school age in which children are transported to , the consolidated .schools.

Monday night in old Gerrard hall, scene, of many battles, not less than 150 members of the Junior class answered with their presence a call, then three days old, to assemble. They listened to an auditor's report for near ly an hour. Then for an hour they declared for their rights and for decent expenditures . for dances. More than 125 fought like rebelling slaves. Faced with new orders from an executive committee, which had. presumed it was vested with absolute and ultimate authority, the group had finally determined upon im mediate . liberation. The regret is that we had to become unbear ably weary of being led by the ear and trampled under foot be fore we rebelled. By decisive majorities the 150 juniors present voted: (1) that it would not ratify its executive committee's proposal that each member be assessed an addition al 50 cents in order to help the senior class defray its half of the proposed $1,600 junior-sen ior dances ; (2) that it would not approve the Bert Lown con tract into which its executive committee had, without voted oww Tnf mnVincr if. a Federation lts numerous appendages, our past experience in reality, and not just in name with "f ree and unlimited coinage of silver" looms authorization, entered ; (3) that Such is the true purpose of the Federation, shade of William Jennings Bryan, it would not pay more than $300 4.u xt, .Mi v, oQ-n n(1tv,ly,. to complicate matters still further.

The attack which -is now being made, calling for another meet ing of the class to vote again, is nothing more than a fight being staged against the juniors by the members of the senior class not the entire membership of the senior class, but a minority in that class who have been beat en in the campus elections of some few weeks ago. They are not able to take it on the chin and are determined to go to any extremes to carry their point of view and stage a $1,600 dance here on the campus while the University pleads as a pauper for financial support. They claim that the; presiding officer of the junior meeting was not qualified to hold the meeting. For all the year he has been qualified. They claim that the new class officers have been in stalled. Then if this be true, Vergil Weathers is president of the senior class and Stuart Ait ken president of the junior class. Then they claim that the voting was not fair since the minority could not win the minority was so few that they did not care to raise a dissenting vote. They claim that the boys with the money did the voting that's also pure bunk. Really, they argue so many things they kill their own arguments. Boil it down: They are trying desper ately to continue the regime of dictation by the self -picked cam pus big shots. rne members 01 tne junior class are treated by this one time all-powerful political ma-i chine and I include some few members of the junior class too, because they have been promised political offices in the next elec tions and naturally they have to stand by as idiots and fools for upholding their own rights in the government of their class. Well, they have a perfect right to call us morons, fools, and idiots and everything else that would reflect on our intelligence if we lapse into that state of in difference which has heretofore made possible their high-handed acts of despotism. Juniors, tonight we have an other chance to prove that we are done with yoke-bearing, and let's do it! C. E.
