Law “Scandal Committee” Civen Hearing Tuesday
With the “scandal committee” from Law to consider, the question of revoking’ a previous decision and allowing ine A. S. B. polls .0 be opened in the evening at Law School, the approval of a special committee’s selection for “Trojan’’ manager, and various other derails of an ordinary meeting, the Executive Committee held a stonny ;ession from 7:30 till 10:30 Tuesday evening in the graduate man-igers- office.
Charges of misconduct, of willful violation of rules regulating ..he procedure of the election, of partisanship, and of voting by proxy ^ere made by members from Law School to the Executive Committee. After hearing all the charges, the committee decided that what proof was offered by the representative from Law was inadequate, and gave a vote of confidence to the men who handled the election at Law.
Another question that received considerable attention was the ;harge of practical disfranchise-nent of the Law night students,

Two gymnasts of the L. A. A. C. were declared ineligible for their participation in the Junior State A. A. U. meet held May- 4. . The- Los Angeles Athletic Club took first honors, while the University of Southern California took second place.
The men in question were Hull and Hargreaves. These two stars were formerly on the gymnasium team of the University of Chicago. The University of Chicago has always presented a formidable gymnasium team and for the last five years they have held the championship of the “Big 10."
Ineligibility of these two stars was due to their representation of the Y. M. C. A. in the city meet one month previous to the Junior State A. A. U. meet. The points gathered by these gymnasts were a first and second on the horse and a second jn the tumbling.
