Editors of Yale "Lit" Elected The junior class of the academic department of Yale University at New Haven last night held its annual election of its editors for the Yale literary magazine, or the "Lit," as it is commonly known. The five editors chosen are supposed to represent the best literary talent in the class, and the successful men are usually the foremost contributors to the periodical. Those chosen were: Samuel Granger Camp of Canaan, Conn.; John Morgan Hopkins of Docher, Tenn.; Hulbert Taft of Cincinnati, O.; Owen McMahon Johnson of New York city; James Whitney Barney of New York city. The new board met as soon as declared elected and organized by electing O. M. Johnson chairman and J. H. Hopkins business manager.
