from the "squads left and right,”
learned by these men in 1917 and
1918. The guests will see 900 stu
dent cadets put through their
paces by their student officers
on the same field on which the
veterans drilled in 1918.

this year. All the students, and
especially the girls are urged to

This is the last group meeting

Lou Torgeson found out he was
just elected new student body
president of ASUO when Lyle
Nelson phoned him at the Beta
house.
"The sense of responsibility
connected with • the job was the
first thing that struck me,” Lou
said, as he sat in the Emerald
shack talking over the election.
“One of the first questions I
asked John Dick was when to
begin, and when I could plunge
into the job.”
The new president was obvious
ly pleased over his victory. ‘‘It
was a darn good fight,” he said,
"and a lot of fun.”
What will be the first job the
new ASUO president will under
take after his inauguration
Thursday ? To put it in his words
it will be "to organize and unify
the breach brought about by the
election.”
"One of the important things I
want to do is keep up the reputa
tion we now have all over the
northwest for having the out
standing student assembly pro
grams,” Lou explained. “I want
to be sure this tradition is kept
up.”
Other newly elected ASUO of
ficers are “just wonderful,” ac
cording to Lou. “They all know
their business. They’ll be grand
to work with,” he said enthus
iastically.
Torgeson will take over the
position of student body president
when he is installed at the last
student assembly of the year
Thursday in Gerlinger hall.

“A Minor” of Grieg.
