went in on the support of a strong
political coalition but a few
months after taking office, some
of this support bean to slip away
because of his political and per
sonal actions and a few months
ago the impeachment cry went up.
This cry became louder when
the governor called the legislature

March 18 to put through an oc
cupational tax on .oil. Strong op
position developed to the tax, led
by business organizations claim
ing it would drive industry from
the state. Newspapers joined in
the fray and demanded impeach

continued with the charge that It
was. opposed by the Standard Oil
company of Louisiana.
The tax was defeated and the
legislature turned swiftly to the
business of impeachment. In a
series of riotous sessions, the
house of representatives voted on
eight counts charging misuse of

islators, and to suppress the free
dom of the press and. general Incompetency.

persons, as against maximum of
1909 for the armory, however Mc
Intyre assured the school heads
that students could be allowed
five tickets for commencement as
usual and he would see that the
crowd was accommodated.
When word of the change of
time and place for graduation be
come known about the school, ob
jections from the girls came forth
quickly. Objections were on two
grounds: that parents eould not
readily get away to attend a
moyning program and that the
formal dresses already planned
for the occasion would not be ap
propria te to a morning event. In
asmuch as artificial light will be
used, the latter objection docs toot
mean much. Principal J. C. Nel

The principal pointed out that col

before the change was made.
Plans for seating have not been
worked out; but it is probable the
277 members of the class will oc
cupy the center lower section of
the theatre and the suggestion has
been made that faculty members
be seated on the stage. One of the
chief problems which remains to
be settled is where the class will
meet to march to the theatre, as
there is not enough room for them
to assemble there.
