New Haven, Conn. — Radical steps for the elimination of alleged objeetional features of the present method of announcing elections to the academic Senior secret societies at Yale, are proposed by members of tlie Junior ('lass, as the result of a discussion last night at a meeting attended by about 100 Juniors, prac tically a third of the class. Too much publicity, it. is claimed, has been given to the "tap” day ex ercises, while the spirited contests which have taken place In public be tween the societies for desirable men has given the societies an undue im portance in under-graduate eyes. To curtail the publicity, it Is pro pos d that the place for holding the annual ceremonies be Berkeley Oval, a more restricted spot, Instead of the traditional corner ef the college yard under the spreading maple free. To eliminate the contests it Is proposed that the societies pre viously agree among themselves as to in n, and to aid in their choice it Is further proposed that there be submitted to them a list of 70 members of the Junior Class, after It has been approved by some re sponsible person, as the choice of the class of those worthy of Senior so ciety membership. The list, it is stated, would he simply a guide and might be disregarded. Proposals that the members of the class decline to offer themselves as candidates under any conditions or under certain restricted conditions met with little favor. One hundred and twenty nine stu dents have enrolled at the I'niversity of Missouri this semester, bringing the total registration to 2.768, K'.even Chinese students are en rolled at Southwestern College.

"srwfr seat SALE OPENS TOMORROW NIGHT’S BIG show Will start AT 8:45 FINAL REHEARSAL TONIGHT Last Week Has Been Spent in Drilling Fifty or Sixty Col lege Men Who Participate in Mob Scene in Play. (By Edison Marshall.) The seat sale of “Strife” opened today, and according to Manager Michael, it is satisfactory. Tonight a dress rehearsal will be held at the Eugene theater. The curtain will raise tomorrow night, promptly at 8:45. This will afford1 time for those that wish to see the basketball game to reach the Eugene theater. The hunger dance will take the place of a pre lude to the play. The last week has been spent in drilling the mob, which consists of 30 or 60 college men. During the mob scene, when the mob sways from one view to another, some of the most dramatic work of the en tire play is brought out. The play has throe acts. The first is laid in the luxurious home of John Anthony, the president of the Trenartha tin plate works, where a strike has been going on for six months. The first scene of the sec ond act, by contrast, is the barren, cold home of Roberts, the strike leader. The second scene is the mob scene. The third act takes place in An thony’s house. Here the ol'd', old clash comes, the leaders are broken, and the strike ended. Although the play is a strong drama, bits of humor crop out throughout. Wilder, one of the di rectors, played by Ralph Ash, has comedy lines, and Scanterbury, played by Earl Bronaugh, is a “character part,” according to Pro fessor Reddie. The strongest women's part is Mrs. .Robert, played by Janet Young. She appears in the first scene of the second act. The cast is as follows: John Anthony—Henry Howe. Edgar Anthony—Edison Marshall. Frederic Wilder—Ralph Ash. ! William Scantlebury—Earl Bro naugh. Oliver Wanklin—^-Elmer Furuset. Henry Tench—Allen O’Connell. Francis Underwood — Clarence Brotherton. Simon Harness—E. Turner.
