At the table, all was peaceful and quiet when suddenly there boomed out of the silence a feminine voice. The song started by Emma Wootton was one of the campaign songs of the Republican party and was taken up by the rest of the girls who were either “on the fence” or favoring Hughes. -Miss Woot ton entertained the table with a stump speech putting forth all of the good qualities of' the candidate for which she stood, and nearly succeeded in converting some of the members of the Wilson squad, so strongly entrenched around the Hughes contingent. At the Pi Beta Phi house, members of the Hughes contingent challenged the members of the Wilson party to a tug of-war in the back yard. The challenge was read at the dinner table, but ac cording to reports which have been vari fied, the Wilsonian* in the house re fused to accept “being afraid that they would lose,” as one of the “Hughesites” declared. According to statistics that house is about evenly divided. “But even with the majority on their side,” said an authority, “they were afraid that they would lose, and so would not accept the tug-of-war.” i The Chi Omegas, headed by Eulnlie I Crosby, succeeded in confiscating the University Wilsonians that were put I out the other night and distributed to i the different houses on the campus. The [ confiscation was not all, for the papers were torn and burned. They were tak ing no chances with the influence that they might have on the members of the fair Hughes co-eds. “The house is about evenly divided,” said Miss Crosby,” and we run about .10-50.” Today we have had one convert to our side, and now from the looks of things there will be another one, for one of the Wilson girls is not at all sure that, she is for Wilson, and we may get her over." Kappa Alpha Theta Wilsonitcs are on the war path. They would not give out any information as to what was coming off, but promised that there would be something doing before Monday. From all that the Emerald has been able to gather, it seems that the Hughes members of the fair sex are doing most of tin1 rough stuff and that the Wilson ians are lying low. Of the other houses on the campus who have pulled stunts, we were unable to find any reports of just what happened, but from what we could find they are going right along with the Test of the girls. evEJREAdy. offers’ @0© F°r a NAME Get an Eveready and go after that $3,000.
