CO. G SELECTS A
TROPHY SERGEANT.
H. S. ClarkElected by Small Majority
to Bear the Howell Trophy.
On Monday night the old men of
Company G met in room 39 Mitchell
■ for the purpose of electing a trophy
sergeant. This privilege is extended
to the Company which wins first place
in competitive drill for the preceding
year. It it indeed an honor to be in
a Company which has won the dis
tinction of being the best drilled Com
pany in the Regiment. The Trophy
Sergeantship is one of the most desir
able ranks to be had because of the
fact that the sergeant represents his
•Company. Another reason is that the
rank is given him by his friends.
Hugh S. Clark was chosen by a
small majority to this high rank. He
is a leading man in his studies as well
as a good athlete. The entire Regi
ment extends its congratulations to
Company G for their choice.
Prof. Hayden of the Department of
Biology, has recently bestowed to sci
ence a contribution on “A New Spe
cies of Fresh Water Worm.” The new
species of fresh water worm which
Prof. Hayden has discovered is to be
found in water of this vicinity. This
treatise appeared in the publication:
“Transactions of the American Micro
scopic Society,” for April, 1914.

ENGINEERING NOTES.
When the sections M. E. T3 and
T4 reported to the wood shop and
blacksmith shop for practice, it was
found that each section contained
several more students than could be
accommodated, but by dividing and re
arranging some of the sections it was
made possible for each student to
have an opportunity to take the work
offered in those courses. Each year
these sections are large ones, but this
year they are larger than they have
been for several years.
This year the M. !E. Department has
sent out a large number of exhibits
which were made in the shops and
foundry by students.
The A. I. E. E. has been reorganized
and officers for the coming year have
been elected. J. F. Nash was elected
president, A. Dickie secretary, and E.
E. Rack chairman of program com
mittee. Several of the most promi
nent engineers of the South have
promised to address the society dur
ing the year.
Up to the present twenty students
have registered for the two-year
course for practical electrical engi
neers offered by the E. E. Department.
This is the first year that this course
has been given here, but judging from
the large number of students taking
it the course will certainly be success
ful.
The E. E. Department has added
to its already well equipped labora
tories several new machines, among
which are two railway motors, auto
matic and hand control; a new induc
tion motor for cascade connections;
two alternators and a motor genera
tor set for wave form analysis.
This department possesses the best
set of standard measuring instruments
in the State, and also the best fitted
room in which to use them.
As the telephone laboratory has
been moved to the top floor of the
building, there is now ample room
for the installation of the new ma
chinery.

tion. Dr. Blodgett has a paper upon

RESULTS OF ELECTION.
In last Saturday’s election the fol
lowing men were elected to serve as.
student representatives on the ath
letic council:
PETERS, E. M.
DENTON, V. C.
CLARK, S. F.
. There are 340 Sophomroe voters, 135
Junior and 96 Senior, but only 44
Sophomore, 71 Junior and 68 Senior
votes were cast. Of these Peters re
ceived 123, Denton 112, Clark 96,
Brown 92, Bararaco 71, Clarkson
54. It will be noticed that 70 per cent
of the Seniors voted, 53 per cent of the
Juniors and 13 per cent of the Sopho
mores, showing very clearly that a
student’s interest in college activities
increases with his length of stay in
college. Had the Freshmen been eli
gible, it is doubtful whether any per
cent of them would have voted.t ?
