There will be a meeting of the Freshman class at 7 o'clock this evening in Lower Massachusetts to vote on the following new rules governing the election of the class officers. The rules adopted by 1906 are as follows:

1. There shall be three officers, president, vice-president and secretary. They shall be elected in the Freshman year within two weeks after the Christmas recess, in other years in November by a method explained below.

2. At the Freshman election there shall be no restriction to the number of nominations, which shall be made informally at the meeting.

3. In other years the president then in office shall call a meeting in the first week of November for the purpose of electing a nominating committee of ten. At this meeting there shall be three ballots: on the first, the twenty-five men receiving the highest number of votes shall be retained and voted upon in a second ballot. On the second ballot the fifteen highest shall be retained and voted upon for the third ballot to determine the final ten.

4. The committee so elected shall nominate within one week at least two candidates for each office, announcing the nominations publicly. One week later the class shall vote by Australian ballot in an all-day election.

5. There shall be no restriction on this nominating committee as it may nominate any member of the class it wishes.

6. Additional nominations may be made by petition of fifty members of the class.

Of these rules the third seems more complicated than is necessary, and the following change is suggested: "In other years the president then in office shall call a meeting in the first week of November for the purpose of electing a nominating committee of ten. At this meeting nominations for the committee may be made to the number of twenty, and a ballot then cast, the ten men receiving the highest number of votes to constitute the committee." It is also suggested that rule 4 be changed as follows: "The committee so elected shall nominate within one week at least two candidates for each office, in addition to the men at that time holding office."
