ELE CT RIC LIGHTS

It is commonly rumcred about the streets of the town that the electric lig-hts may be turned off on June L How much real truth there is in this rumor is only a matter of conjecture. The po:ssibility of th e lights going off does not sound good, for commencement is only one month off and to have no electri c lights during that week would certainly be inconvenient to say theJeast. The students

At the regnlar monthly meet' ing of the ·varsity O Association, the following officers were elected for the ensuing year: President, ]. w. Ayer; Vice President, I. L. Clymer; Secretary, L E. Myers; Treasurer, W. D. Kring. The Association contemplates building a straight track of 100 or 1 20 yards just east of the oval. Such a track is much needed for the short runs and would alfow the dash and distance men to train without interfering with one another as is so Qften the case now.

The Otterbein Track Team meets Wittenberg upon our own oval next Saturday at 2 P· m. • for -the first real contest of the season. A goodly number of men hav_e trained consistently under the direction of Captain Ayer in mud, , rain and cold for the past six weeks, and although a large part - of the team is entirely new to such work, there are certain to be not a few old college records broken ext Saturday. \;Vittenberg is :trong and every event will be hotly contested.
