FROM A LIST OF FIVE FOLLOWING BANQUET
Elected Without Opposition. From
List Containing Names of
Two Co-eds.
"ORMAN A CLASS ORATOR
Precedent Set When Candidacies
of Two Young Women Are
Sanctioned.
Ellison H. Dixon, of Wrens, Ga.,
will deliver the valedictory address
for the class of '22. as the result of
the elections held in the University
Chapel Wednesday evening. His
choice was unanimous, no other nom
ination being made.
Henry Dorman, of Americus, was
named Senior orator to represent
Franklin College at the commence
ment exercises at which at least one
representative from every branch of
the University system will speak.
Only about fifty Seniors from all
departments were present at the
elections, threatening weather keep
ing down a large number of voters.
Shortly after President McRainey
called the assemblage to order, the
question arose as to whether list
number one, containing among oth
ers, the names of two young women
of the class of '22, or list number
two, a solidly male ticket, should
be selected as the proper list of val
edictory eligibles. After no small
amount of discussion, which nar
rowly ^avoided assuming a tinge of
bitterness, a vote was called, and
list number one was adopted, thus
for the first time in the history of
the University placing the position
of valedictorian within reach of a
co-ed.

day.
At the termination of this story,
we present the official box score,
mostly for the reason that there has
rarely been one like It before.
Many of the Chi Phi supporters
heaved sighs of lamentation when
Theta stepped to a four-run lead In
the first two innings by dint of some
timely hitting and Chi Phi errors,
but these same parties failed to
recognize the power of the winners'
bats.
