From a Siaft Correspondent. COLLEGE RK, January 19.— Plenty of “midnight oil” is being burned at sthe University of Mary- land nowadays. With only a week remafning unttl the mid-year exami-| students | nations will be held, the who ‘haye any doubt as to their abil- ity to meet the tests are laboring early and late to make sure of being prepated. It is cstimated that the collége light bill will be doubly heavy this montb. Most of the off-hour pastimes are tabog, being replaced by “cramming” and there is not enough conversation at might to arouse the lightest sleep- | er. “Say it With books" is the slogan. Student Delegutex Return. Maryland's delegates to the Stu- dents’” Volunteer Convention in In- dianapolis, all of whom recently re- turned 10 the university., except Elizabeth Flenner, who was forced to leava thé returning’ delegation at her home in' Altoona, Pa, were de- lighted with their trip and the Dlegs- ant experiences of their mission.

Porter of Hyattsville has of- fered §25.In gold as a prize to the student of the university who shows the greatest advancement in public speaking work this vear. President Woods has approved the offer, which was made for the purpose of .stimn- ulating greater interest in the public | speaking course through the medium of ftriendly rivalry dents. Charles Gelst, past master of the Student Graage. will officiate at the installation of officers of the Bureku Grange, at Chillum, and at the Belts- wville Grange early next month.

Closer co-operation in. student ac- tivities at the Georgetown Univergity Law School is being brought about un- der a newly organized assoclation of class presidents directly’ responsible to i the heads of the institution. | The initial step of the Law. School | to bring about more co-ordination in !student affairs is to be followed by i similar organizations in the othey des | {partments of the universjty and has ! the hearty support of the Rev. John | B. Creeden, president of Georgetown. With each department represented by an assoclation of class presidents, | the most natural movement to_follow | would be a revival of the George- | town Union, the suspension of which | has been a large contributing factor | to the widening of the gulf between | the professional achools and the col- | lege, in the opinion of some of the Georgetown faculty. The Law School assoctation, which will have general supervision over | all class matters, consists of the fol- | lowing presidents: Theodore King of | » first-year evening class, Walter ' of the second-year evening | s, Donald F.

One of the problems before the assoclation is to find a to bring about a er co-operative movement be- tween the two rival schools. At its last meeting the assoclation took up the question of securing greater attendance at the prize de- bates staged between the Senior and Junior Debating socleties. Recommen- dations _were made to the that hereafter the audience should be allowed to select the winning side in debates, leaving the selection of the best individual debater to the decislon of judges appointed for that | purpose.
