Baker and Ottawa were quite game this year, both showing considerable school spirit ticles are, worth anything, he ought to win next year, so bring him along brethren. [Continued from Page 1.] The Ottawa Mandolin Club was highly appreciated by everyone. The business meeting of the association was held today. The "Centennial" was the headquarters and was crowded with delegates. The object of this meet is to give a stimulus to the work that is carried on in the winter and in doors, the events accordingly should be such as form a part of the regular work of the physical training department. In this way we get an incentive for the regular class work, and therein something to which one may look forward and for which one may strive to excel. The Indoor Meet. Again, in this way it brings out men who would not otherwise be seen in the field of athletics. If one class of men play foot-ball, another base-ball another basketball, another engages in track athletics, and yet another in indoor athletics, we have a great number of men engaged in some kind of active sport and each one receiving benefit. For these reasons then the indoor meet should be as different from the out-door meet as i is possible to make it. The events should the refore include work with dumb-bells, wands, clubs, horse, parallel and horizontal bars, besides the athletics that properly belong indoors, such as fence-vaulting, hitch and kick, high kick, climbing rope, peg pole, rope skip, broad and high jumps, fencing, sword exercise and wrestling of different kinds. The lack of room and opportunity for individual practice in these events is a serious drawback at present; but as soon as the room has been fitted up in Blake Hall for the ladies gymnasium there will be opportunity for all to perfect themselves in their own sport. Class competition might be encouraged by such an event as a tug-of-war which might be conducted without cheats thus avoiding the strain that is normally associated with this event. that is usually associated with that event. The rewards of such a meet should be of a lasting nature rather than such things as last for a short time. The efforts of the committee will be exerted toward setting up in the University some enduring record of a man's work. A shield has been suggested which would have the names of the winners and the records made. This woulp be kept until a trophy room could be provided, where all the trophies would be kept with the names of the athletes and the pictures of the teams. It has been suggested to create a new honor, that of a college gymnast, to be given to the person making the best all round record in such events as are taught in class work. This would be open to all amateur students of the University. Another suggestion has been made, that of creating a freshman and sophomore gymnast open to members of these classes respectively, the competition to include only such work as is done in these classes. The question for debate was "Resolved, that Aaron Burr was guilty of treason." Mr. Anderson and Mr. Torrence affirmed Burr's guilt, while Mr. Burton and Mr. McGill denied it. After a very energetic discussion the question was decided in the affirmative. A good sized crowd attended the Adelphic last Saturday evening, President Lane presided. Mr. McGill gave the members a parliamentary quiz. This was followed by a speech by Mr. Vale in which he mentioned some needed political reforms. Mr. Spohn delivered a very touching recitation. In an elegantly worded speech, Mr. Williams showed why some men rise above the general level. A short and interesting essay on "The Development of the Mind" was read by Miss Fox. THE ADELPHIC After the debate Mr. Wilson, as critic for the evening, reviewed the entire program. The College Press Association "fizzled" out this year. The scattering delegates were collected and the Association was again placed on its feet and will present a program and give its annual banquet next year. Mr. Post of the WEEKLY staff was elected vice president; Mr. Baker, of the Baker Orange, president. During the business session Mr. Crabtree was admitted to membership Best line of 25 cent ties ever brought to the city. M. J, Skofstad, 824 Massachusetts street. Smith's News Stand for cigars and tobacco. Thursday's Convocation A large crowd responded to the music of the University band and as usual the Law school occupied a prominent position in the front of the room and made their presence known. The mass meeting Thursday noon to hear Elliott's oration developed almost as much enthusiasm as last week's convocation. The same scenes were enacted in regard to the battle of the pamphlets, a plentiful supply of which seems always to be on hand for convocations. Dean Green opened the meeting urging that a larger delegation be sent to Ottawa to show our University spirit, and also for the sake of self defense if necessary. He advised that the University contingent should start no trouble, but be there if there was to be any. G P. Elliott then delivered his oration, "What of the Future" which won first place in the local contest. Mr. Elliott's delivery had noticeably improved since the contest and the large crowd was enthusiastic in its applause. HUMOROUS. War and Love have various spheres.
