the Engineering 
D epartm ent, who has charge of the 
system of drills and fire alarm s, feels 
the urgent necessity for these drills. 
His intention a t firs t was to have a 
fire drill once every week, and this 
was practiced fo r the first few weeks 
of the firs t term , but the students 
seemed to understand the drill so p er­
fectly the very firs t time fire alarm 
was given, and marched out with so 
little confusion th a t Prof. Bantel was 
delighted with the results. The en­
tire Main Building was cleared in ex­
actly four minutes. The second time 
only three m inutes were required.

But a fte r several weeks the stu ­
dents began to consider the fire alarm 
as a joke and refused to march out of 
the building. Not only did some of 
the students do this, but many of the 
instructors failed to vacate the build­
ing, especially if they happened to be 
upon the third or fourth floor. This 
caused the fe a r th a t having the drills 
too frequently would cause them to 
fail in th eir purpose entirely. So it 
was decided to have fewer drills, let­
im press more fim ly

SCHOOL OF GOVERNMENT 
S U F F E R S FROM ST U DES 
A N D TEACHERS LEAVING

The School 

of Governm ent has 
been suffering greatly on account of 
the war, as nearly all of its students 
and Senior 
are men of the Junior 
classe, many of whom have gone 
into service. 
Because of this, there 
will be no addition of new courses in 
this departm ent for the coming year. 
Indeed, it is very probable th at, if the 
w ar continues, many of the present 
ones will have to be done aw ay with.
It is hoped, however, th a t such will 
not have to be the case, as this is one 
of the most interesting departm ents 
one which 
in 
would be greatly missed. 
In it, the 
Governments of France, England, Ger­
many, and the United S tates are stud­
ied in detail, compared, and their bear­
ing upon the present g re a t crisis fully 
liscussed.

the U niversity, 

and 

The D epartm ent of Government has 
felt keenly the absence of Professor 
Haines, who is on leave of absence and 
teaching in the U niversity of Chicago. 
The date of his expected return is not 
known, but there is a 
strong hope 
th a t it will be in the near future, as 
his presence is greatly needed and de­
sired.

STUDENT VOLUNTEERS MEET.

The 

S tudent Volunteers met 
W ednesday noon a t the Y. M. C. A. 
Lunch was served to 
the members, 
and the regular program was carried 
out. Owing to the g re a t work done 
by Miss Combs, the traveling Student 
Volunteer, several new members join­
ed the organzation. Because of many 
conflicts, the time of m eeting was 
changed from W ednesday to Tuesday 
a t 5 p. rn. The m eeting place is to re­
main a t the Y. M. C. A. as before. 
The m eetings of the fu tu re are to be 
more strictly devotional, and the so­
cial side will also come 
into more 
prominence.

COLLEGE NOTES
J. A. Hunter, Editor. 
Lucien Crockett, Associate.

Three qualifications are set forward
by the University of Washington in 
the contest for a name for their a th ­
letic teams. The name must have a 
touch of sentiment; must be histori­
cally appropriate, and must be short 
and snappy. The need for such a 
name was keenly felt last fall when 
the Washington football eleven visit­
ed California. When asked for their 
name, the name was lacking. 
The 
writers called them the Indians, but 
this does not appeal to the Washing­
conflicts with other 
tonians, as it 
names in the vicinity.

Minnesota Health Bureau.

Plans are developed in the Univer­
sity of Minnesota to provide a free 
health bureau on the campus. 
The 
bureau, the expenses of which will be 
covered by a three dollar fee per s i ­
lent, will be to provide free medical 
intl hospital service and a health of­
ficer, who will be in charge of the 
campus sanitarium.

Hard Work Ahead.

that 

The Senior men of the Ohio State 
University have voted unanimously to 
work from 8 to 6 o’clock six days in 
.he week for the rest of the semester 
in order 
they may graduate 
■arly. This decision came after the 
refusal of the faculty to g ra n t a de­
cree to any man drafted into the serv­
ice before the semester is over, unless 
he had completed all of the required 
work. 

^

Later Classes.

After a three months trial, the Uni­
versity of Minnesota has decided to 
liscard the schedule adopted last Oc­
tober, which called for 7:30 classes, 
md to have classes begin at 8. E ast­
on time instead of central time will 
henceforth be observed on the cam­
pus.

No Graduation Fees.

Harvard has decided not to charge 
the usual twenty 
dollar graduation 
fee to those men graduating in 1918 
who enter the service prior to com­
mencement.

Yale Men.

The latest records give the num­
ber of Yale men the service at 5800, 
1000 of whom are commissioned offi­
cers. Field Artillery has proven the 
most popular branch of the service. 
This is probably due to the course in 
Field Artillery which was inaugurat­
ed at the suggestion of President Had­
ley in 1915. 
It is interesting to note 
that the youngest major in the Yale 
the president. 
quota is the son of 
Sheffield Scientific School has lost 
one-half of 
to this 
number. One-third of these are com­
missioned officers.

its Senior class 

Oklahoma Girls Sing.

The ice has been broken a t Okla­
homa University, and the Girls’ Glee 
Club of that school is to make a con­
cert tour. This, the first one, is to be 
brief, but if successful, it will be fol­
lowed later in the spring by one of 
longer duration.

Faculty Protest.

A protest against the “ utterances 
and actions of Senator LaFollette” was 
recently signed by 93 per cent of the 
faculty of Wisconsin University, in­
cluding the president, and sent to the 
Senator. The original copy of pro­
test was given to the library of the 
Winsonian State Historical Society.

Baseballs.

Fifty-nine thousand seven hundred 
and sixty baseballs have been ordered 
by the War Council of the Y. M. C. A. 
for use by the boys in France. This 
is probably the largest contract ever 
let for baseballs, and comes from the
