CRIMSON TO BEGIN NEW BUSINESS COMPETITION

Will Start on Thursday, May 5--Work Consists of Soliciting Subscriptions and Advertisements--Open to 1928

A third competition for the business board of the CRIMSON open to the class of 1928 will begin on Thursday, May 5, it was announced last night by the business manager. The competition, which will last approximately 11 weeks, will get its formal start with a meeting of all candidates in the Crimson Building at 7 o'clock on that night.

This competition will be the last chance for the members of the Freshman class to make the board before the end of their Sophomore year. At present there are no Freshman editors and the business board requires at least four members from each class, hence there is an excellent opportunity for all first year men. Although the competition will last over into the fall, no work will be required during the summer vacation and only a minimum during the final examination period.

The duties of a candidate for the business staff consist entirely of soliciting advertisements and subscriptions together with a small amount of office work. This latter work is reduced to very little due to the presence of a stenographer and bookkeeper, who attend to all correspondence and the routine matters of business.

All who intend to compete will meet the business manager on the night of May 5 and their duties in the competition will be outlined. The method of obtaining advertisements during the spring and subscriptions in the fall will also be described together with the exact part of each day that will be required of the candidate.
