CHICAGO ASSOCIATION

The Association held a smoker at the LaSalle Hotel, Friday evening, April 16. There were about seventy-five members present, including a number of "paenes", for whose special benefit moving picture films showing scenes from the Winter Carnival at Hanover were thrown on the screen. An impromptu Glee Club under the leadership of chorister Guy Abbott discoursed enthusiastically and acceptably. The only business transacted was the election of T. T. Redington '07 as statistical secretary, to succeed W. H. Gardiner '76, who died recently.

Dartmouth was well represented at the first intersectional debate between the University of Chicago team and that representing the Green. About thirty alumni and numerous wives, daughters, et al filled the space reserved for them, and displayed the customary Dartmouth enthusiasm expressed in songs , and cheers. Charles R. Webster '82 presided, and his well-chosen remarks furnished an excellent background for the debate. Although the judges awarded the debate to Chicago, the honors were very nearly even, and the Dartmouth boys, Jordan and Cook, acquitted themselves very creditably and made a fine impression on the alumni present.
