Tuesday, November 19, 1918  THE DAILY IOWAN STATE UNIVERSITY OF IOWA PAGE THREE 
JUNIOR NOMINEES SELECTED BY CLASS
Election to be Held at Drawing Room Tomorrow Between Five and Six O'clock
 "D'y know who y'r gonna vote for tomorrow?"
  "For what?"
  "You a Junior, and don't know who's on your own class ticket? You'd better be up there at L.A. drawing room between five and six and sign y'r name to something."
   The nominees as chosen in the class meeting Thursday are: for president, Margaret Hays, Alice Hinkley, Kathryn Dayton; vice-president, Grace Altschuler; secretary, Ophelia Miller, Elizabeth Bates; treasurer, Esther Graves, Lucile Becker; corresponding secretary Helen Mackintosh, Ethel Verry; class delegate, Morgan Foster; athletic representative, Clarence Greibling.
   In discussing the coming election a few days ago Dean Aurner said, "The Junior class should be congratulated upon the step it has taken to exclude politics from the election."
   This is the first time in the history of the University that nominations for class officers have been agreed on by the class as a whole, and it is thought that in managing the nomination in this way, this year's Juniors are establishing a precedent which will have its influence in class elections of the future.

WILL VISIT THE UNIVERSITY
   Lord Charnwood, member of House of Peers, is scheduled to visit the University on Dec. 9 and 10. Lord Charnwood is known in America, largely as the writer of a biography of Abraham Lincoln. While there, he will be a guest at the home of President and Mrs. W.A. Jessup.

ERODELPHIANS 
Erodelphian literary society will hold a regular meeting in the liberal arts drawing room at 7:30 Thursday evening.
  
  Gamma Phi Beta announced the pledging of Lucile Everett of Iowa Falls.
   Prof. L.P. Sieg, of the department of physics, who is absent on leave in the service as captain in the signal corps of the United States army, as stationed at Langley Field, Va. Mrs. Sieg and the two children are living with him at the garrison.
   Adele Kimm, a sophomore last year, and her sister Emma Kimm of Blairstown were here for the Ames Game. They were the guests of Grace Altschuler at the  Sigma Chi house.
   Ralph Fritz, '17, in a recent letter enclosed a communication which was widely distributed in the trenches by airplanes. General Pershing urged the men to advance rigorously on the Western Front. He said, "I am counting on the splendid courage, dash, and spirit of our army to overcome all opposition. Our country expects nothing less."
  Iota Xi Epsilon announced the pledging of Velma Kaufman and Luka[?] Folker of Iowa City, and Beatrice Ritz of Moulton. 
   S.A.T.C. officers danced at their quarters in the Sigma Chi house Friday. Lieutenant of Mrs. Denutts[?] and Captain and Mrs. Pride chaperoned. 
   C.F. Kurtz of the extension department, is in Dubuque this week in connection with the reorganizing of the records in the office of the overseer of the poor. 
   Pearl Vogel is ill at Currier hall. Miss Vogel will give up her work this quarter and return to her home in Anthon. 

HISTORY BOOKS ARE MANY
Over Fifty Thousand Volumes In State Historical Library
   Many University student do not know that one the third floor of the liberal arts building, at the south end, there is the State Historical library which contains over 50,000 volumes. These books can be read by the students and it is interesting to know that in this room histories are continually being written.
   At present, the following books are being issued by the Historical society, and will soon be ready for distribution: "The Spirit Lake Massacre," by Thomas Teakle, a graduate of the University, and at present head of the history department at North high school in Des Moines; "The History of Legal and Political Status of Women in Iowa," by Dr. Ruth A. Gallager, of Library Research association; "Biography of Gen. James B. Weaver," by Dr. F.E. Haines, professor of sociology in the University. 
   In the Iowa and War Series of publication, an article will soon appear "Speakers and Speaking in Iowa during the war." This will be of special interest to the readers of The Iowan because Glen N. Merry has been the director of the speakers bureau in Iowa during the war. 

PERKINS CHILDREN RETURN
  The crippled children at the University hospital are returning after visits at their homes on account of the Spanish influenza epidemic. All the pneumonia and influenza patients have not yet been discharged from the hospital so all the children can not be accommodated as yet.
   Hospital authorities state that they expect all the children back soon and the hospital in the usual order in a short time. 
   
   Those members of the junior class who wish places on the staff of the Victory Hawkeye have until Saturday to make application to Dr. C.H. Weller, chairman of the Hawkeye trustees. The time was extended from yesterday so that there would be more competition for the editorship and the business managership. Each of these places has a salary of $200.
   
   Alpha Delta Pi announces the pledging of Pauline Benda of Iowa City. 

CHRISTIAN PATRIOTS IN CONVENTION HERE
Dean George F. Kay Chairman Of Committee--Speakers Are Men of Fame
   The Christian Patriots' Convention has just completed a two days session here under the auspices of the Laymen's Missionary Movement. The center of activity has been the Presbyterian church where the various churches of the city have united in an effort to make this movement a success. Dean George F. Kay of [th] University has acted as chairman of the convention committee.
   The topics which were discussed are: The Churches and the Moral Crisis," "Making the World Safe for Democracy," "Propagating the Church Efficiency Program," "Developing the Material Resources," and "The Larger Christian Statesmanship." The speakers were of international reputation and influence.
   The final session closed last night with a talk on larger Christian statesmanship. This convention has been of great interest to the students of religious education because of its progressive spirit.

   Dean Aurner will be hostess to Athena literary society this evening at her home on North Dubuque street.

NO SERIOUS FLU CASES
   But few cases of influenza have been reported to the hospital in the last few days. There are about forty convalescents from influenza in the law building. Nearly all of the reported cases in the last few days have been found to be tonsil or throat trouble instead of the "flu". The hospital has no serious cases at present.

REQUIREMENTS LOWERED
   Owing to hampering conditions, requirements for initiation into the I.W.A.A. have been lowered. Only one point need be earned, and this is to be done by taking a five-mile hike in company with three other girls.
   Initiation will probably take place sometime this month. The president advises that girls take their hike as soon as possible.

   Send The Iowan home.
