Palaeopitus

Thirteen juniors are chosen each spring to form Palaeopitus, our closest medium between administration and undergraduate. In their flannels and unassuming white hats, Palaeopitus directs class hazing and rushes, special trains, freshmen contacts, class voting and all emergency situations. Conservative, conciliatory, the leaders of campus life, they are something solid and trustworthy. In their elections each organization selects one or two candidates in the preliminaries and the class chooses one, and picks four from the class at large.

Fraternity politics creep into the preliminaries, not the finals. This year's group: president, J. B. Martin, Jr., of Grand Rapids, Mich., from class at large; vice-president, C. K. O'Neill of Bridgeport, Conn., from news boards of publications; secretary, C. Thorn, Jr., of Hudson, N. Y., from the Outing Club; treasurer, R. N. Hatcher of Washington, D. C., from the athletic managers; H. Andres of Newtonville, Mass., from the letter men; J. M. O'Connor of Salem, Mass., from the non-athletic organizations; A. W. Seepe of Peru, 111., from the non-athletic managers; W. P. Steck of Shaker Heights, Ohio, from the interfraternity council; D. L. Day of New York city, from the business boards of publications; G. Douglas Morris of Belmont, Mass., from the Christian Association; L. E. Myllykangas of Pitchburg, Mass.; R. A. Rolfe of Penacook, N. H.; and W. C. Wolff of Brooklyn, N. Y., the last three from the class at large.
