REPUBLICAN CLUB PLANS CAMPAIGN FOR MEMBERS

HOPE TAFT AND WADSWORTH MAY BE AMONG GUESTS

The Harvard Republican Club has held its organization meeting and announced its plans for the coming year.

A drive for membership will be started immediately and a membership committee, headed by Julius Wadsworth '25, has been appointed. This committee will canvass the various dormitories for members at once. As new members sign up, they will be asked what Republican candidate they favor for the presidency. If there is enough difference of opinion to warrant it, the club will hold a mock-convention at the Union some time in May, possibly in conjunction with the Hiram Johnson Club. The membership fee will be 50 cents.

The club is already making tentative arrangements for a dinner at the Union about March 20, to which members only will be invited. Republicans of national prominence will attend and make addresses. Chief Justice William H. Taft, ex-president of the United States, who will be in Boston at that time, may find it possible to be present. Senator James W. Wadsworth of New York has also been invited to speak.

The membership committee is as follows; Julius Wadsworth '25, chairman, J. D. Baldwin '25, C. B. Barnes '24, P. K. Brown '26, Gardner, Cowles Jr. '25, Merrill Garcelon '25, W. H. Gratwick Jr. '25, L. U. Harris '26, H. W. Keyes Jr. '26, J. McK. Kimball '24, J. D. Lodge '25, J. R. P. Nason '25, W. I. Nichols '26, Boies Penrose '25, D. LeB. Sweeney '26.
