class proposed that before the senior class votes upon the gift plan the senior officers should consult with the administration with the purpose of supplying the senior class with the answers to the follow ing questions 1 is the administration aware of the resentment prevalent among the student body concerning the tactics employed by the dean's office 2 if so does the administration approve of the methods the motion was defeated 30-17 mainly because those opposed to the motion disapproved of at tempting to hold an ax over the administration persons who had voted the mo tion down then suggested that the * class approve the class gift plan and then have officers representing the class meet with members of the ad ministration and consider the ques tions as to the dean's office a
