Absolutely no opposition met the proposed constitution for the Undergraduate Council last evening. A committee of three will soon be nominated to make the nominations for charter membership and next fall the Council will start on the first year of what we trust will be an historic career. The founders of the new organization have great hopes for its success, but their real work will lie with next year's members, who by hard work and devotion to the spirit of the enterprise can finally establish its prestige. The CRIMSON believes that the Student Council has almost unlimited possibilities, it properly conduced. It will give definite organization to that vague term hitherto known as undergraduate sentiment; it will be a center of authority through which the Faculty may as a body come into closer touch with the students; it will maintain a sentiment that will fore stall future interference with intercollegiate athletics, by proving that scholarship and competition, if properly regulated, are not incompatible.

Great responsibilities rest upon the Council, and indirectly upon the nominating committee and the class, which must choose the men that will give the body proper authority at the start. But we know that 1909 has the men who can fulfill the hopes of the most optimistic promoters, and that the under classes will not be behindhand in their support. Here's success to the Council, scholar ship and athletics.
