His subject was The Institutes of Gaius. Judge Lobingier was a visitor in Manila during the Carnival week. The day following the judge left for his district to resume his court's session. CHINESE STATESMAN ADDRESSES STUDENTS Honorable Cheng Ting Wang, former vice-president of the Chinese senate and member of the Nanking constitutional convention that elected Sun Yat Sen to the presidency of the Chinese Republic in 1911, was a speaker at the law forum held on February 10th. Mr. Wang was introduced to the audience by Dean Malcolm as the national secretary of the Chinese Y. M. C. A., and in the presence of several hundred University students Mr. Wang gave an address on the new ideals of the Chinese republic. Mr. Wang touched on the various factors that make for progress in his land, after conveying the message of the Chinese people, who he said were eagerly awaiting the day when the Filipinos would become masters of their own destinies. He touched on the industrial awakening in his country, referred to the great Christian movement in China, and speaking of the eagerness of his people for education, he said something of the numerous educational institutes that are accommodating the youth of his land. The earnestness and the fire with which the speaker delivered his address were highly liked by his audience, and the numerous interruptions during his speech when he was applauded were the proof of this fact. Mr. Wang entertained his audience at the same time that he delivered a great message, and the loud applause that greeted the close of his remarks indicated the impression that his address made on the University students. Mr. Wang, who is a Michigan and Yale graduate, was accompanied by Dr. Tee Han Kee and Attorney Albino Z. Sy Cip. SENIORS HOLD ORATORICAL CONTEST The Senior Class held its oratorical contest for the selection of class orator on February 20th. The Seniors who took part in the contest were Juan Luces Luna, Marceliano Montemayor, Elpidio Quirino, and Victoriano Yamzon. Acting as judges were Mr. Justice Johnson of the Supreme Court, Executive Secretary Villamor, Judge Juan Sumulong, Dean Malcolm, and City Attorney Escaler. Jose Teodoro, the class president, was presiding officer. Victoriano Yamzon was adjudged winner of the contest. The contest was a close one, the participants having all won honors in former oratorical contests. The Sampaloc Intermediate School orchestra furnished music for the occasion. Miss Adela Maceda, accompanied on the piano by Miss Amanda Morente, sang the aria from La Forza del Destino. Justice Johnson announced the decision of the judges. FIELD DAY AND JUNIOR RECEPTION Two important events marked the 22nd day of February, as far as the College of Law was concerned. In the morning there was the Field Day, in which the College participated, and while winning no honors at all, the indoor baseball team put up what Director Cassidy termed "a most creditable fight." In the evening the Junior Reception, thus far the most splendid and successful ever given by any class of the College, was given in the University Hall, in honor of the Senior Class. In the reception line stood José Gil, president of the class, Mrs. Conrado Benitez, and Dean Malcolm. The assembly room was tastily decorated. There was a bevy of young ladies from Normal Hall, and with a slight sprinkling of outsiders there were more than enough to occupy the room during dancing hours. Dancing was indulged in until a late hour. Refreshments were served in the veranda adjoining the assembly hall. DR. ANGELES TO LECTURE Dr. Sixto de los Angeles, assemblyman from Rizal, chairman of the committee on hygiene of the lower house and member of the Board of Regents, was to deliver a lecture before the class in Medical Jurisprudence in the Assembly, on Friday, March 6. Dr. Angeles has made a name for himself as a practising physician of this city, and his experience along that line will doubtless be of interest to the legal and medical professions alike.
