preparation for the early tiMs; the
class captains are an follows: Kulker-
oo-r'rosli Pool Sophs Isaars-Juniors
d Mitchell Seniori. F.iuli elass is
tty stronp an dall are confident of
victory; dope- favor n splitting ol
points with the Sophs leadiui; at the
end. They have a heavy entry list as
havo the Slimes. 'I he Juniors and
Seniors who have the experienced
men lack numbers whith they expect
to counteract by ability.
Wednesday the heavy Slime list hud
to lie reduced by troyouls: the results
were still unannounced at pnss time
but no record breakings are reported
Knaus Dorsey A. Neel) lloten Mosrr '
Henderson and Moody are reported as
likel) point-lakers. Fulkerson who is
the Slime Captain should also be good
for several points; and Woolen is al-
most a sure winner if the high liurillts
un- run.
Pool captain of the Soph is also
backed hy a large number of likely
men. He has many of the ranking
comivetitors such ns A. J. Hill. Itobirts
Pool and Taylor; they are expelled tu
bear the burden (or the Sophs while
others contribute other point for them.
The Juniors heath d by Isaacs arc
few in number but powerful. Their
best prospects are in the fit Id events

or jump men of no mean abil.ty.

will welcome the opportunity to exert
themselves along those lines.

New Exam Books
TlUI D8 AuOptetl
Examination Pads of Reg-'
illation ineme raper
Will Be Used Here
A change In the booklet used for
examinations has been brought about
This change will go into effect at the
lieginning of the fall semester of ')2
In the past the little blue books have
contained only twelve pages but the
new ones will have twenty pages ami
ihey will be of the same dimensions as
the regular theme tablets.
This new booklet will be more cn'i
xenient to both students and faeullv
members. Tho students are accustoms I
to writing on regulation theme paper
and the use of this new device will not
necessitate a change in the individual's
habils of writing. Too the teoche-
will be benefited because they will n it
need to try and keep up with two or
three booklets as is sometimes tin-
case. Now here's the interesting pari of
this deal. J. Arlie Garner assures th
reporter that according to the amount
of paper contained they will be one
third cheaper; they plan to sec tin f
of the booklets for ten cents.
Twenty pages of large sine pip'r
should be enough for the brightest stu
dent on anv ordinary examination.
