Class. Will. Meet Here’ During Commencement. The graduating class of 1904 will hold a reunion on the campus in con nection with the June commencement, and in all probability will provide the debating medals to be given to the leading oratory of the Phi Delta and Ciceronian literary societies at that time. This is a plan now being worked out by members of the ’04 class, one of which is Dr. C. L. McGinty, dean of the School of Theology. Dr. Mc Ginty was’ a member of the Cicero nian society when he was a student here . The Rev. Walker Combs, of Cov ington, and Mr. C. E.. Brown, editor of the Cordele Dispatch, are also said to have interested themselves in hav ing the class of '04 provide the de bating medals for this year. There were some twenty or more members of that graduating class. It is customary for graduating classes to hold regular reunions along with the , commencement , periods. Heretofore, individuals gave the med als for the best’ speaker of each liter ary society, but indications are now that hereafter each, ‘class of twenty years old will co-operate in giving the debating medals. Will D. Upshaw, congressman from Georgia, and G.. W. Garner, of At lanta, gave the Ciceronian and Phi Delta’ medals’ respectively to the so ciety speakers of 19238.
