As secretarj'’ of Michigan State College and of the State Board of Agriculture his duties are many and varied, but his position may best be classified as “business manager” of the institution, which involves the care of all property belonging to the college and the disposition of the budgets under the State Board of Agriculture. J. A. Schepers came to M. S. C. in 1907 and served in the capacity of cashier until elected treasurer by; the State Board of Agriculture in 1922. All State Board incomes are received and disbursed through his office in addition to many trust funds. He has always been closely connected with the boarding clubs at the college and is a material help to the student body. Page Twenty-live STATE BOARD OF AGRICULTURE L.

Halladay, East Lansing, Secretary Jacob Schepers, East Lansing, Treasurer Michigan State College is under the control of a constitutional board known as the State Board of Agri­ culture. The members are elected from the state at large for a period of six years, two being elected each odd year. The board likewise elects a secretary, who is also secretary of the college, and a treasurer, both of whom hold office at the will of the board. Page Tzven 17- si.v A college is not merely a group of buildings, a beautiful campus, an efficient faculty, an earnest student body or a well organized course of study. All these are but factors by means of which the purpose of the College is carried out. That purpose is found in the meaning that life takes on in after years for those who have gone from the campus as alumni. What does life really and truly mean for them? Are they more open-minded, more tolerant, humbler in spirit, more efficient workers, more willing to serve their families, communities, state and nation and with it all do they find more enjoyment in life itself?

Thus the institution has exercised a gigantic influence in directing the trend of the development of American agriculture. Through the intervening years the courses have been broadened to meet the ever changing demand and permit of a wide range of specialization in general agriculture, forestry, horticulture, land­ scape architecture, agricultural economics and agricultural engineering with options in animal and dairy husbandry, poultry, apiculture, crops, soils, etc. This is the fortieth anniversary of the formal organization of the Agricultural Experi­ ment Station under the Hatch Act. The large and well trained staff of research workers with well equipped laboratories are busily occupied in attempts to solve some of the many complex problems of the farmer. Scientific research is basic to agricultural education and extension and is responsible for much of the notable progress made in American agriculture. The Agricultural Extension Division through its administrative officers, county agents, extension specialists and club officials is constant^ rendering available to the farmer much new information to aid in economic production and marketing and affords relief from animal and plant diseases and insect pests.

Previously, the chemical laboratory had consisted of one-half of the first floor in old College Hall, being well furnished with apparatus and chemicals, and was adequate up to this time (1871). In that year, 141 students were registered, including one resident graduate and eight “ladies”. Bricks and mortar make a building but do not make a laboratory. The word “laboratory” means a place in which to work, and men must be there to perform that work. in Michigan ; Among the manj* valuable results which have emanated from the old building are: first complete meteorological record established the first complete soil survey involving the analysis of more than sixty samples of various soils collected from both the lower and upper peninsula ; the first official analysis of commercial fertilizers offered for sale in the state ; the first official analysis of human food from which the work of the Dairy and Food Commission was later evolved ; the first survey of the school houses, prisons, and charitable institutions of the state involving sanitation, ventilation, and water supply for the State Board of Health ; comparison by analysis and baking tests of the various winter wheats grown in Michigan ; determination of the feasibility and probable profit of growing sugar beets in Michigan by testing samples grown in every county in the state. Michigan sugar beet industries thus became established. Every one of the approximately five thousand graduates of this institution (with the exception of possibly one hundred) have taken at least one year’s study of chemistry in this building. F. S.

Degree courses in mechanical, civil, electrical, chemical and agricultural engineering; graduate work in the same lines are available and in each field liberal options are provided to permit specialization in technical work and in administration. The division also furnishes considerable instruction to students in other divisions of the college. Research work is conducted mainly through the Engineering Experiment Station, the personnel of which consists of full time research assistants, graduate students and the members of the instruction staff. At present twenty projects are listed and ten bulletins have been published. By this work it is intended to utilize the facilities of the college in the solution of engineering problems for the industries of Michigan and in agriculture and other fields where engineering knowledge and service may be in demand. Extension work consists in presenting to the public such technical and professional information as will be helpful in daily work. This is done by the short courses on the Campus and at other logical points, by circular and newspaper publicity and by correspond­ ence and personal interviews. Secondary roads, concrete theory and technique, rural electric service, auto-motive ignition and battery work and radio matters have thus far been given considerable attention with results well worth while.

The art of homemaking requires a preparation far more inclusive than is necessary in the- training of a good housekeeper. Good housekeeping is of value only in so far as it lends its influence towards the physical well-being of the individuals in the family group. Successful homemaking requires such skill as is necessary to keep house well, and in addi­ tion, an appreciation and knowledge of the arts and sciences, physical, biological, social and economic, that directly affect the development of the members of the family within the home and their relation to the community.. In order to meet more adequately this broader interpretation of'Home Economics teaching, the Division has added to its curriculum a course in child study that provides, through a nursery school, opportunity for observation of the mental and physical development of small children. The Division of Home Economics aims to provide a well balanced training as a founda­ tion for sane living and effective service. JEAN KRUEGER, Ph.B., M.S., Dean of Home Economics.

In the first place it was designed to meet the needs o Its purpose was two-fold. an increasingly large number of Michigan State College students who wanted this type 01 education. At the same time it furnished contact with liberal branches for the students ot scientific and technical fields of study. Wherein lies the value of Liberal Arts? v First of all, the Liberal Arts Course is suited to the needs of the individual who desires a general education rather than one of so-called specific or technical type- For many persons this training is ample and fulfills the life needs better than any other. ...... , , . ‘ It is not to be inferred that this line of training does not lead to certam vocational I he opportunities in life. Foremost in these we should place the vocation of teaching. day has already arrived when a college degree is a requisite for a very large proportion of our teaching positions. Every year society calls for its quota of teachers, and the young person who possesses the necessary training in some line and the native qualities needed or teaching has little to fear for the opportunity to exercise his talents. In these days many new avenues of service and remunerative employment are develop­ ing. The students of the social sciences finds a place in social service work. 11 he public finds it necessary to employ trained men and women to direct the work of caring tor the poor, the unfortunate, and the needy in various ways. A further vocational opportunity is found in preparation for the newspaper held. _lhe college curriculum in these days includes courses in news writing, preparation of articles for journals and magazines, and editing a.nd management of public papers. I he activities of this field are rapidly becoming professionalized. Closelv allied to the last field is that of advertising, a product of very recent years in the wav of professions. The opportunities in this field have had a phenomenal deve op- ment and have attracted many of our capable students who, possessed of the proper talent for such purposes, have found an acceptable career therein. The training for this purpose consists of thorough grounding in courses in Drawing and Art, combined with English composition. Special courses are oftered in these lines for this purpose at Michigan State c . , rp, . • COll?his is an age of statistics. Every enterprise of consequence has as its foundation data gathered from various sources. For instance, life insurance is based upon statistical f information. Accountants are indispensable tq; society today. For many who ,are fond of handling data this is a particularly attractive line. ^ r RyDER^ M A > M.Ped., Dean of Liberal Arts.

Page Thirty-seven FACULTY IN VETERINARY MEDICINE AND MEDICAL BIOLOGY Michigan State College does not give a fnll course in medicine but does train men and women for entrance into the best medical colleges. The medical sciences or the sciences in their relation and application to medicine are not neglected. Our interest is of necessity in agriculture and especially in animal industry. Of the eleven veterinary schools in the United States, one is at M. S. C. The veterinary course is well organized and complete; the faculty and the equipment are of the best. Graduates from this course are successful as practitioners, milk and meat inspectors and as teachers and investigators. There is a strong spirit of research pervading the Division. The veterinary coufse offers a young man an unparalleled opportunity for self develop­ ment and expression and for public service. It is furthermore an excellent educational course in the biological sciences. As our civilization matures, there will be greater and greater hazards and perils in animal industry and more and more will be tlm need for trained men upon whom we can depend to conserve our meat, food and clothing supply and to protect human health from the diseases intercommunicable between the lower animals and man. Because of our excellent departmental facilities and because of our proximity to the departments and laboratories of the State government in Lansing, we have outlined and are now offering a full college course in Medical Biology. Medical Biology undertakes to furnish in usable form all that the sciences have to offer in the understanding and diagnosis of disease. This course prepares men and women to serve as educated and trained technical assistants to the medical profession in their offices, in hospitals and in public health laboratories. It is the only complete course of its kind offered in America. WARD GILTNER, M.S., D.V.M., Dean of Veterinary Science. Page Thirty-eight PERSONNEL DEPARTMENT OF ANATOMY F. W. Chamberlain, B. S., D.

There will be plenty of time to reminisce after graduation. Though the class­ mates have pleasing recollections of the fall term party in the Union ballroom and the formal closed party at the Women’s Clubhouse, their attention is mostly focused at present on the gala events of commencement week,—cap night, water carnival, lantern night, senior play, graduation exercises, and welcome into the association of alumni. The committees appointed by the officers of the class are as follows: Party Committee—Tune Ranney, Jerry Reynolds, Walter Morofsky. Announcements Committee—Lela McCarty, Corinne Backus, George Woodbury. Publicity Committee-—Robert Wilson, I. S. Edwards, James Hands. Memorial Committee—Keith Himebaugh, Dorothy Goodson, Margaret Shoesmith. Cap and Gown—Ralph Decker, Harriet VanWeelden, Gaylord Burke. Commencement Arrangements Committees—Aria Pangborn, Ruth Ketchum, Stanley Hartsell. Committee chairmen were allowed to choose as many fellow workers as they saw need for besides the three appointed. Norval Tyrell has been placed in charge of the Water Carnival. His plan of attack is to form a Water Carnival Board composed of representatives of each organization on the Campus.

Butterfield, President Dr. R. C. Huston, Chairman Robert J. McCarthy Prof. Cox Bohn Grim, Student Member George Julian, Alumni Member Page One Hundred Twelve ACHIEVEMENT The gradual and progressive development in the scope o£ athletics at Michigan State College has been the plan of Ralph H. Young ever since he became director of athletics four years ago. To bring athletics within the reach of everv^ student in the college is a task of some proportion and the most careful plans must be laid, and then achievement is possible only when obstacles of long standing are removed. Beginning with the fall term of the present college year a-, long stride was taken in the fulfillment of Mr. Young’s plans and at this time, with the year not fully completed, great achievements have been done, and the future is one of optimism. The primary purpose in any plan of organized athletic activity, in theory at least, is to offer to the students in the college an opportunity for healthful exercise and beneficial recreation. With the passage of time, the development in intercollegiate relations . has brought about highly intensive training and the services of skilled coaches, with the result of limiting active participation to comparatively small numbers of undergraduates. The introduction of minor sports has followed naturally enough, as a means of solving the problem and giving to a considerably large number of men the opportunity to develop their athletic abilities in the activity each loved most. To keep Michigan State abreast the times four new full time men were added to the staff of the athletic department during the past year and a new arrangement of duties assigned to each of the old staff in order^ to carry out in so far as the equipment and available fields Avould allow, the further extension of the policy of athletics for all. The achievements of the year are notable for the first major sports victory over a U. of Michigan team in more than a decade; the great victories during the indoor track season; the fighting spirit of the basketball team; the ability.of the football team to score against the University of Michigan for the first time in ten years and the splendid victories of all the minor sports teams. The proper place to begin a resume .of the past year is with the track and baseball teams of last spring. The baseball team took the. first Southern trip in the history of the school, and the success of'•this trip on which a majority of the games were won served to stimulate interest and speculation for the games to come and was a great moral factor in the team’s later triumphs. The high spot of the season was reached when the team out­ played and outfought our friends from the Univ. of Michigan, who won the Western Con­ ference baseball championship and brought the first major sports victory enjoyed by a Michigan State team over the Univershy in ten years. The team was one of the best run getting outfits in the West, averaging over six runs per game. Games were won over Syracuse,'Michigan, Notre Dame, and St. Viators. The baseball team is coached by John Kobs and was the finest product in. the history of baseball at State. The outdoor track team of 1926, coached by Ralph H. Young, Miles W. Casteel and Morton Mason, was the greatest in history. Nine Michigan State College records were broken. The squad won notable victories at the Ohio State Relays when they took first place in the 440-yard relay; first in our section in the 880-yard relay; third in the distance medley relay; and fourth in the two-mile relay. At the Drake relays we placed third in our section of the 440-yard relay and second in our section of the 880-yard relay. To finish a splendid season the track squad journeyed*to Milwaukee, where we won second place in the first annual Central Intercollegiate Track Meet held at Marquette University. Fred Alderman ranked as third best 100-yard dash man and second best 220-yard dash man in the college world in the National College rankings. Michigan State now ranks as one of the leading track schools of the U. S. and it is noteworthy that this rating has been achieved by developing all the material which has helped to place her there. To those close to the situation the football team of 1927 was most successful. To begin the season several discouraging factors confronted the coaches and men of the squad. Capt. Marty Rummel received a serious injury during the summer, having had his achilles tendon severed, which left the team without a leader, and his loss seriously handicapped the development of the line. He was one of a mere remnant of veteran material around which the Coaches had to build a new team. The schedule included seasoned teams which for the most part were intact from the pervious season. After a survey of conditions the coaches decided to build for the future and to develop that type of game which the material was best suited for. The result Avas that a team was developed from which but two men were to be lost through graduation. Noteworthy achievements were the overwhelming defeat of Centre College, 42-14, which was the most humiliating defeat the Praying Colonels had received in ten years. We scored on the University of Michigan for the first time in eight years and scored against every team except one on our schedule. Our opponents represented the strongest teams in every section of the U. S. Michigan was Western Con­ ference Champion. Cornell lost only one game on her schedule. Colgate proved to be the tartar of the East. A fumble by Shaughnessy of Colgate in the last minute of the Page One Hundred Thirteen ACHIEVEMENT—Continued game which was recovered by French, Navy end, who ran 98 yards for a touchdown, lost the game. Colgate had outplayed Navy throughout the game. Later in the season Colgate prevented the eleven iron men of Brown Univ. from winning the Eastern Championship. The Haskell team of 1926 was the greatest Indian team of all time according to Glen Warner, coach of the one-time Famous Carlvle Indians. The publicity attained by our team was nation-wide and for the first time in historv Michigan State was given a place in team ranking in the New York Times. ■The basketball, team, coached by B. F. Van Alstyne, was a revelation. The team started slowly under the new coach and system but gave evidence of being a real playing combina­ tion. Before the season had ended a great fighting organization was developed. The gym­ nasium did not hold the crowds which turned out to the games. Vern C. Dickeson, Sopho­ more* was picket on the first All Central Intercollegiate team. He was high scorer of the conference. Carl R. Felt, Sophomore, was given honorable mention as Captain on the All Western team by Fred Young,. Western Conference Official and Sports writer of the Chicago Tribune. The team, made up of Sophomores and Juniors, is intact. The future of basketball at M. S. C. is indeed bright. In keeping with the high, standard set by the outdoor track team last spring the indoor track team carried the Spartan colors to new heights. The indoor track records for 1927 are as follows : Won more first places at University, of Illinois Relay Carnival than any other institu­ tion entered, as follows : Captain Fred Alderman won the 300-yard dash, Bohn Grim won the 75-yard dash, Harold McAtee tied for first in the pole vault, the one-mile relay team won first place in their section, Henry Wylie won second place in the 1,500 meter run.

White eleven, for in every encounter the Youngmen performed to the truest significance of the moniker—Spartan.- It was a team which brought much evidence of fight and spirit that took the field against Adrian College in the curtain raiser, and main­ tained the same efficient football throughout the season, which culminated with thé Haskell Indian struggle. Three wins, one tie, and four defeats comprise the ledger record of the season ; a squad moulded for the 1927 schedule, praise and national recognition, marks the morale record established. Every team scheduled for the major attractions of the year were formidable foes, and State was under no little handicap When the serviées of Captain Martin H. Rummel were, lost for the entire card. Thé Titian haired Saginaw lineman had won praise of the critics in 1925 as thg “Iron Man of the Team”, but fate entered in during the summer of 1926 and in an auto­ mobile accident he was rendered injuries, which forced him to the bench for the season. Benched from com­ petition, Rummel was not squelched in spirit, for he failed to miss a single practice during the season, and his presence with the squad throughout the year was instrumental in the success attained. After performing brilliantly for Michigan State in his first two years of varsity competition, Rudolph E. BoeHringer, of Bây City, was chosen to direct the Spartan destinies in his final campaign as Acting Cap­ tain, succeeding his former teammate Captain Rummel. inevitable blow of graduation was keenly felt by the State mentors, and long before prac­ tice sessions came into vogue, plans were being made left by Ex-Captain Don to overcome the vacancies The always Page One Hundred Seventeen Haskins, Paul Hackett, Roy Spiekerman of Saginaw, and Alfred Vogel of Oak Park, Illinois. The efforts necessary for the mentors to replace these stalwart true griddePs showed commendable merit, but the essence of what they accomplished with an inex­ perienced forward wall will not become evident until the coming year. ADRIAN FIRST TO FALL Inevitable weather conditions forced shortened drill sessions during the early pre-season period, and it was a green and inexperienced eleven, which opened the season on September 25 with Adrian College. Minus the services of a leader, and with the notable absence of any veteran material, Michigan State swept the down state eleven aside 16-0, repeating exactly the score of the previous season. The Adrian game revealed many weaknesses, although the individual work of the sophomore mem­ bers of the squad stood out for the attention of the coaching staff. Likewise the needs of a defensive array were prominent, and the driving power of the offense possessed the usual early season lack of polish. With necessary coaching tactics to promote a more staunch defense, and a greater offensive power, Coach Young directed preparations for the coming tilt with Kalamazoo. College. This game was conceded to pro­ duce considerable notice on the part of the fandom and alumni of both institutions, since it was at the Celery City college that Coach Ralph Young won his athletic reputation as a grid coach. KALAMAZOO TURNED BACK 9-0 True to predictions, Kalamazoo College came to the campus • with a world of support and a great team. They clashed with State, and flashed an offense which featured the tilt, but State proved the better of the two elevens and emerged the victors by. the count of 9-0. The Spartan line showed considerable improvement, and a marked degree of offensive power, which was far superior to that displayed against Adrian, causing the annual flutter of hope to rise'for the approaching battle at Ferry Field with the University of Michigan. Elwyn Wenner Fred Barratt Page One Hundred Eighteen Long gains featured the N Kazoo conflict, but a wonderful defense by the West Michigan team kept State from piling up a score. A fast passing attack resorted to by Kalamazoo, brought the Spartan ends into the limelight, and caused the coaches to shower praise in which they stemmed the for the manner offensive attack of the visitors. SPARTANS DISPLAY GREAT SPIRIT BEFORE MICHIGAN Confident and inspired with the spirit of battle, Michigan State sent its football charges into terrific battle with the University of Michigan, undisputed champions of the conference. As usual the Friedman- Oosterbaan combination proved effective, and later developed into one 'fa| the greatest machines in the nation. State suffered a 55-3 defeat, which fails to represent the true difference between the two elevens. Reconciled by the fact that it was the first time a Spartan team had scored on Michigan in years, and that it was perhaps the greatest exhibition of football spirit and fight a Green and White eleven had ever recorded at Ferry Field, rewards were not missing. State was hailed throughout the land as a scrappy gridiron contingent, and Paul Smith, drop kick hero, was acclaimed “one of the greatest backs to ever stride; the!turf of Ferry Field.” Time and again he flashed long runs, and once he nearly tricked the invinc­ ible Michigan team for a touchdown. He became the real star of the game, when he stood on the Michigan 42-yard line and booted squarely between the uprights.. It was the first time that Michigan State efforts had recorded a tally against Michigan since 1918. Not a murmur/of dissatisfaction was heard with the showing of State against Michigan, and material benefits were forthcoming from the brilliant defeat of a fighting Spartan team, by a great University eleven. GREEN AND WHITE WINS FAME AT CORNELL With two victories, a defeat and a deadlock, Coach Woung prepafed his proteges for an expected royal battle in the East against Cornell following the Mich­ igan struggle. Cornell had perhaps the greatest team “Ruddy” Boehringer \ Page , One Hundred Nineteen in its history, and during the season it had already reached the top of the Eastern heap under the tutelage of Gil Dobie, recognized as one of the greatest strate­ gists of modern football. invaders Cornell unleashed its mighty crew against the fight­ ing Spartans, and for play after play, a great battle was on. Cornell finally came out of the tilt, victors by a 24-14 score. No sooner than the final whistle had sounded across the Cornell field, than every telegraph wire in the land flashed nation-wide recognition of the western from East Lansing. Praise upon praise made its way into the records of the East. A fighting western eleven had played Cornell off its feet for the last half of a terrific conflict, nearly taking vic­ tory when the Cornell margin was cut to 17 and 14 with State having the advantageous hold in offensive drive. Cornell came back, and with a remarkable drive, nosed out the Spartans with a final score as the game ended. An interesting sidelight on the Cornell argument was the presence in the Cornell lineup of Victor Butter­ field, son of President and Mrs. Kenyon L. Butterfield. He proved one of the main cogs in the Eastern array, and was instrumental in the success of his team. SPARTANS FALTER AND LAKE FOREST HOLDS TO TIE One of the best defensive teams in the West came to the Spartan stronghold following the Cornell game, when Lake Forest University of Illinois arrived to battle Coach Young’s crew. The Foresters had regis­ tered one of the most unexpected defeats in the annals of Spartan competition the previous season, when they romped off with a 6-0 verdict. State was determined to gain revenge, and Lake Forest was equally deter­ mined to repeat its victory of 1925. Both teams met, State had the best primed to defensive perfection. offense, and the Illinois team came back to prove that it had a superior defense. A great battle was waged for sixty minutes, and neither team was able to penetrate the opposing forward wall. The game ended in a scoreless' tie. Ward Ross The Lake Forest game did not tend to squelch the Spartan spirit, for although minor weaknesses were shown in this tilt, both teams were equal during those sixty minutes of bitter clash. Both eleven® tried every trick known to football, to cross the goal of the oppo­ sition, but for the two it was a day of equality machines. SPARTANS LOSE TO MAROONS IN SEA OF MUD Two weeks after the memorable Cornell battle in the East, Coach Young again took his Spartan warriors to the Atlantic seaboard for a clash with the University of Colgate. The Hamilton, New York, team, with pile- driving line smashes led by Shaughnessy and Mehler, amassed a lead over Michigan State, which the Spartans could Srot turn back. A heavy field handicapped the Michigan State offense, and the final count stood 39-0. The line smashing tactics of Colgate worked to extremely good avail in the sea of mud, which pre­ vailed over the grid, and the offensive forte of Coach Young’s men was thwarted. Smith, the great running star of the Green and White, was stopped in his tracks by the crushing tide of Colgate. This defeat had its true merits for State,, since Col­ gate had tied Brown, one of the undefeated teams in the national intercollegiate grid title race. The Spartans returned to the campus undaunted, to prepare for the annual Homecoming conflict with Centre College, of Danville, Ky. STATE TAKES BRILLIANT VICTORY FOR HOMECOMING Fred. Danziger Back to their own stadium and battle ground, Mich­ igan State began intensive preparations for a colorful Homecoming Day game November 6 with Centre Col­ lege of Danville, Kentucky. The Southern team was to appear at State . for the’second consecutive alumni celebration day, and being always a good drawing card, the largest attendance of the year passed through the portals of the Spartan stadium. The.“Praying-Colonels” of the South failed to cope with the terrific attack unfurled by the Youngmen and they were turned back 42-12. James Me Cosh Kenneth Drew Ernest, Deacon Completely outclassing the Centre aggregation, State ran wild over the best- defense the invaders had to offer. Spartan backs circled the enemy flanks, and flashed brilliantly against the_ Kentucky line, smashing, and crashing their way for innumerable long gains. Not satisfied with the mere victory over Centre, Michigan State dove into the records of past seasons, to find that the margin they maintained was the largest It was ever marked up against a Centre football team. an overwhelming victory for the Green and White cohorts. INDIANS HUMBLE SPARTANS IN CLOSING GAME With a bright victory over Centre in the best dis- plajr of football made here during the season, State relaxed from the hard grind of the gridiron to witness the: University of Michigan and Ohio State game at Columbus on November 13. Returning to their field, the final week of the season was started with an intensive drill session. Koester Christensen r Joe Crabill William Moeller Haskell Indian Institute of Lawrence, Kansas, came to East Lansing on November 20 to sing the swan song on the 1926 season, 1 and they uncorked the fastest offensive attack witnessed here in years, to defeat the Spartan eleven, 40-7. Haskell with its nationally famous team, comprised of professionally experienced players, was conceded victory early in the season, when they started to open up on the best teams in the land, and they were not to be denied when they lined up opposite State. They ran the ends at random, smashed the line with great impetus, displayed a tight defense, and literally romped away with the far lighter State outfit. This tilt marked the closing of college football days for Acting Captain “Ruddy” Boehringer, Jack Garver and Bohn Grim. HOPES HIGH FOR 1927 Prospects for the 1927 season loom bright, with a veteran combination to form the nucleus for moulding nderson an eleven. Paul Smith, Captain-Elect of Saginaw, will lead an experienced array of varsity talent, which is the largest in the history of Spartan football. Veteran backfield men to return with Captain Smith are: James McCosh, Harry Kurrle, Kenneth Drew, Fritz Danziger, Ernest Deacon and Leslie Fouts. Three lettermen who will return for end duty are : Koester Christensen, Louis Hornbeck and John Ander­ son. Jack O’Connor is another promising end who has had varsity experience. Veteran tackle candidates will be Elwyn Wenner, Glen Hitchings, Hugo Kanitz, Joseph Needham and Ivan Tillotson, while the lettermen destined for further guard duty are Ward Ross, William Moeller and Ogden Grimes. Fred Barrati and Joe Crabill are the sophomore centers, who won letters their first year of play, and both will return to the folds of the Green and White. Ex-Captain Kummel may recover from his injuries to allow his return to the Spartan stronghold. He has one more year of varsity competition.

The court season was initiated with Adrian College furnishing the annual first game opposition. State turned back the down staters 33-29, with an apparent ease that only showed signs of weakness in the Spartan defense. This weakness became more evident against the University of Michigan in the second tilt, and the Wolverines laced the State crew 34-13. The inexperienced Michigan State quintet found it hard to strike a winning stride, and two games were dropped; the University of Chicago winning 33-24, while North­ western staged a comeback to win at 34-22. This concluded the pre-season games, and after a holiday recess, which was partly devoted to intensive drill, State came back to give Mar­ quette a 35-32 overtime defeat in one of the best battles seen on the home court last season. Both teams were on a par during most of the conflict, but the Milwaukee clan forged ahead in the closing minutes, only to have the Score tied at 31 all, when Monty Hood sank the decisive goal, which sent the issue into an overtime period. Dickeson cut through for a beautiful goal, Hood added a free throw, and Dickeson came back for another charity toss to finish one of the most brilliant court struggles ever played here. “Monty” Hood- Verne Dickeson Carl Felt “Louie” Smith hBB College, caught State off guard and turned in an avenging victory, 37-31. Follow- lng the tray with the ;Methodists, Coach Van Alstyne prepared his men for the second road jaunt, which opened at Butler.

Notre Dame won the South Bend battle 36~I5- This game saw good Ddsketball on the part of both teams, but the superior work of Nyikos and Conroy enabled the Irish to build up the substantial margin. _ Butler was next on the program for the East Lansing gymnasium, and State made a brilliant attempt to gain revenge for the landslide at Indianapolis, but Butler was not to be denied and they took the verdict at 29-23. State trounced Elope College 46-31 and lost to the University of Detroit 30-28 in the games on deck the following week. Pitt came to the Spartan stronghold for the semi-final of the campaign, and in the best exhibition of basketball played the past season, Michigan State was forced to bow to the Easterners 36-34- Notie Dame graced the Spartan court with Keogan’s Champions of the West seeking to ring out the finale undefeated, and they halted the State attack 34-22.

Coach Kobs had a veteran aggregation and they showed splendid form in every game_ played. For the first time, the squad took a southern training trip during the spring vacation. On this trip the Spartans won three out of five games played and got some intensive training that would not have been possible had they remained in the north. Their showing on the trip was exceptional considering the fact that the State men had not been outdoors until the day they played their first game against Fort Benning. On the Southern trip, most of the old heads showed up well and Rinehart and Tolies, two sophomores, broke into the regular lineup. By the opening game of the season, Kobs had thé varsity lining up as follows: Fremont, catcher ; Speikerrnan, first base; Baynes, second base ; Capt. Kiebler, shortstop ; Rowley, third base; Haskins, Fleser, Zimmerman and Rinehart, outfielders; Kuhn, Wakefield and Tolies, pitchers. The Spartans sailed through their early games in good shape .but lost a tough one to the University of Michigan, 6 to 1 at Ann Arbor. The team rose to great heights, on the following Friday and defeated Syracuse, one of the leading teams in the east, 4 to 3, with Harry Wakefield hurling great ball. Two more easy victories were then tucked away over 4> in minor opponents when Butler came to East Lansing and nosed out the Spartans, 7 a tight eleven inning tussle. Hope was then beaten 6 to 2, but then St. Viator s nicked the Kobsmen 3 to 2 in one of the finest exhibitions of baseball ever seen here. The following Thursday was the red letter day in every Spartan’s history. For the first time in eleven years, in any major sport contest, the Green and White lowered the colors of her arch rival, Michigan. Big George Kuhn, pitching the last game of his career against Michigan, stood the conference champions' on their heads and with the State murderers row” functioning behind him, he set the visitor’s down 8 to 5- A monster celebration that lasted far into the night was the result and the old centerfield bleachers, long an impediment, were burned down in celebration of the great victory. - Western State Normal, who had not been beaten by State in seven years, ran afoul of Lefty Tolle’s slants, and lost to the Kobsmen, 7 to 4. Armour Tech was also beaten badly, but the next week at Kalamazoo, Tolies & Co. were forced to bow to the_ Normalités. George Kuhn, toiling, for the last time .in a State, uniform at home, set the visiting Irishmen from Notre Dame down to a 5 to 3 defeat. Notre Dame beat the Spartans, 6 to 0, the fol­ lowing week at South Bend to close the most successful season ever enjoyed by a State baseball squad. Fourteen games were won and’seven lost against the stiff est opposition ever faced by a State nine. Another hard schedule is being arranged for next year and it is hoped that the same’"success can be enjoyed another year. The team will be hard hit by the graduation of Capt. Kiebler, Kuhn, Wakefield, Speikerrnan, Fremont and Haskins. Page One Hundred Thirty-one Baynes, Schneider, Hoisington, Morgan, Rinehart, Barrati, Rowley, Eggert VARSITY BASEBALL 1927 Coach Kobs faced a very serious problem at the beginning of the 1927 baseball campaign. He was forced to fill the shoes of the six letter men who graduated last June. Perhaps his biggest problem was to secure a reliable catcher to succeed Perry Fremont, who was the mainstay behind the bat for three years. He also had to find two pitchers to fill the boots of his aces, Wakefield and Kuhn, a first baseman, a shortstop, and a hard hitting outfielder. Outside of all this and the fact that State is Jdaying an extremely heavy schedule, Kobs has nothing to worry about. The team took their annual southern trip and although not as successful as the year previous, the trip did a lot of good to both the players and the coach. It showed the coach that the glaring weakness of the team was its battery. Tolies seemed to be the only reliable pitcher uncovered on the trip. The rest of the twirlers failed to show any stuff whatsoever. Two games were won by the Spartans and three were lost on the training trip. The team lined up as follows for the first game of the season at home: Hoisington or Macier at first base; Baynes, second; Eggert, shortstop; Rowley, third; Rinehart, Fleser, Zimmerman and Barratt in the outfield; Witter or Caruso, catcher; Tolies, pitcher. Albion was badly beaten in the opener with Tolies hurling airtight ball, and the team hitting hard behind him. The Kalamazoo game was rained upon and Adrian was given a severe drub­ bing, 13 to 2. Tolies worked out for six innings and Davis finished. Olivet was next beaten, 16 to 0, in a game featured by the heavy hitting of the Spartans and by the superb pitching of Bremer. Michigan was next and in one bad inning the con­ ference champs scored enough to beat State, 6 to 4. Tolies hurled airtight ball after the disastrous first frame but his supporting cast could not get back the runs that were spotted the Wolverines. The Spartan “murderer’s row” was held in check by Ray Neiblung, port- sider, wdio formerly scintillated on the State Freshmen squad, back in 1925.

During the past year, the names of Captain Bohn Grim and Captain-elect Fred Alderman, State’s world champion sprinters, were placed at the head of the list of American collegiate sprinters. The two modern sons of Mercury began their campaign of speed at the Illinois Relays in the Winter of 1926, when Grim tied the world’s mark for the 75-yard dash at ¡07.6, and Alderman gave the much touted Roland Locke of Nebraska his only defeat of the year, establishing a claim- thereby to the world’s indoor mark of '.31-2 for the 300-yard dash, a record held jointly by Murchison of the I. A. C. and Woodring of Syracuse. Alderman’s time, in addition to tying the world’s amateur mark, Stands as the national intercollegiate record for this distance, and few sprinters there are who can come within a second of the effort. Three other names stand out with those of Alderman and Grim on State’s 1926 team. They are Henry Wylie, a miler, Ivan Tillotson, shot and discus, and Paul Smith, an all- around performer. Comparison of records made by the 1926 team indicates that the group of athletes turned out by Head Coach Ralph H. Young, and AssistantCoaches Miles Casteel and Morton F. Mason, was by far the best in the history of this institution. OHIO RELAYS State officially opened the outdoor season at the Ohio Relays, when a fleet sprint relay team won the quarter-mile relay in the college class, and won its .heat in the half-mile relay, only to see another Michigan institution, Ypsilanti Normal, cop the watches, on a compara­ tive time basis. Captain Grim, Alderman, Farley and Van Noppen carried State’s colors in the relays. In the distance relays Coach Mason’s proteges^ copped fourth place in the college two-mile event, and third place in the medley relay. Ripper, Wylie, Van Arman and Belt ran the two-mile, and the same outfit,, with Harper substituted for Belt, ran the medley. State also placed in the individual events, Tillotson taking third in the discus. DRAKE RELAYS Coach Young’s band of sprinters on the week following the Ohio Carnival, did some­ thing that no other State athletes had ever accomplished—and that was to place in the university section at the Drake Relays. Captain Grim, Alderman, Farley, and Van Noppen again carried the college colors.. State took second place in the half-mile and third in the quarter-mile, defeating many famous Western Conference schools. Alderman also qualified for the finals in the open xoo-yard dash. It was while running their furlongs in the half- mile event, that Alderman and Grim turned in times of a sensational order. Both were officially caught in under :2i, and needless to say, their super-human efforts pulled the State team from far in the ruck up into the money. STATE, 7414; DETROIT CITY COLLEGE, State opened the dual meet season by avenging itself on Detroit City College, 74to 56^4. An ideal spring day found Alderman trotting the century in 109.7 and the furlong in -.20.8. He also won the broad jump with a leap of better than 25 feet. Grim won a sen­ :50. The all- sational dual in the quarter from Pauschert, fleet City College runner, in around dual between Paul Smith of State and Doherty of City College attracted considerable attention, both men garnering 14 points to tie for honors. Doherty entered the meet flushed with his sensational showing at the Penn Relays, on the previous week. Wylie’s mark of 2:01 in the half, and Tillotson’s heave of 128 feet 85/| inches in the discus also stood out. IOWA STATE, 67, MICHIGAN STATE, 64 A heart-breaking relay race, that could not be won by Green-clad runners, despite the fact that Alderman turned a quarter-mile in :48.4Jfhis first try at the distance^-gave Iowa’s athletes a victory over the Spartans in the most thrilling meet ever seen at East Lansing. Alderman again copped the century, furlong, and broad jump, and Grim came through in the quarter. Smith scored in the shot, discus, javelin, and pole vault to add to State’s total. Wylie made his first appearance as a miler under State’s colors, and ran a great race, only to lose to the famous Conger of Iowa at the tape. Wylie’s time was 4:29, which was remarkable for a novice. Conger turned in the best distance performance ever seen here when he won both a fast mile and two-mile, and then came back to run the half in “two-flat”, allowing a team-mate to win by inches. Page One Hundred Thirty-five NOTRE DAME, 78; MICHIGAN STATE, 48 State’s showing against Notre Dame, despite defeat, was the best made by the Spartans during the past decade. Alderman ran away from Della Maria of Notre Dame in both the century and 220, and again won the broad jump. Grim erased the quarter-mile record of :50.2 held by Degay Ernst,_ and set a new mark of :49-9. He gave all his heart to the race. The mile found Wylie .pitted against Young, a redoubtable runner, but the sophomore Spartan uncorked his brilliant finish to win in 4:27.6, another newftollege record. Smith and Tillotson scored as usual for State in the field events. Weakness in the hurdles, half, and high jump told severely against the local team. STATE INTERCOLLEGIATES The “Big Three’’ of Michigan track athleticsrGState, Detroit City- College, and Ypsilanti Normal-Swaged their usual dual in the annual intercollegiates, with the Teachers emerging victors by a narrow margin. City College and -State trailed, less than five points separating the three teams. Had State been able to count its Freshman points, the Spartans would have regained the title. State, however, took consolation in the individual championships that came home to East Lansing. Alderman won the hundred, 220-yard dash, and broad jump, for his third successive year of competition. Grim copped the quarter-mile, and Wylie surprised everyone by giving Leroy Potter, Ypsi’s confident entry, a bad licking in the mile. Potter had nothing to match the sensational 300-yard finishing sprint of the Spartan, who hit the tape 40 yards ahead of his rival. Harper and Thomas, two State seniors, came into their own with a vengeance in the two-mile. Harper showed the way, with Thomas a close second, to give State eight needed points. Tillotson was second in the discus, although he broke the intercollegiate record. CENTRAL INTERCOLLEGIATES The first meet of the newly formed Central Intercollegiate Conference was held on June 5 at Milwaukee, Wis., in the Marquette stadium. Notre Dame’s well balanced team won by amassing 72^2 points. State was second with 47, and Marquette third with 35 JC Butler was. fourth with 10,. Alderman continued his winning ways in his three favorite events—the century, 220-yard dash, and the broad jump, but Grim was forced into third place in a fast quarter-mile. Van Noppen placed in the hurdles in one of the upsets of the meet. Wylie staged a great dual in the mile with Judge of Notre Dame, who, within the next week, was destined to become the national champion. Two of the greatest “finishers” in America raced neck and neck around the last lap, with Judge winning by several yards. Thomas, Harper, and Belt, placed two-three-four .for State in the two-mile, won by the redoubtable Shimek of Alarquette. Wylie came back to cop a fourth in the half, and Ivan Tillotson thrust off the efforts of Dilwig, Marquette’s All-American end, to win the discus on his last heave. Paul Smith placed in the shot, discus, and pole vault, and Kurtz con­ cluded his college career by scoring in the high jump. NATIONAL INTERCOLLEGIATES Alderman, Wylie, Grim and Tillotson carried State’s colors in the national inter­ collegiates at Chicago, with Alderman the only member of the quartette to place. Although within a few days after the meet Alderman was in the hospital, undergoing an operation for hernia, the State captain-elect flashed brilliant form to place fourth in the hundred, In the furlong behind Locke of Nebraska, Hester of Michigan, and Sharkey of Miami. he was headed by Locke and Sharkey, although he ran probably the fastest race of his career. He did not enter the broad jump. Wylie led the field in the mile for the greater part of the last lap, only to fade near the tape, and see himself forced into seventh place. .His showing, for a sophomore, in a field of 30 of America’s greatest milers, was most encouraging. Grim barely missed qualifying in the quarter, and Tillotson’s heave of close to 130 feet in the discus could not win him a place. NEW COLLEGE RECORDS MADE DURING 1926 SEASON xoo-yard dash-J§Fred P.

Coaches Mason and Casteel, looked forward eagerly to the indoor track season of 1927. They were not to be disappointed in their expectations. Winning two dual meets,_ the State A. A. U. Championships, and dominating the Michigan and Illinois Relays, the achievements of the team have been branded by experts as the most outstanding in the athletic annals of the college, in any sport. Captain Fred Alderman, and his sturdy team-mate, Bohn Grim, seemed faster than ever as they sped over the boards in their last year of college competition. And from sophomore ranks came a handful of sprinters ■ that promised well for State’s sprint relay chances. The ^showing of Harold McAtee in the pole vault was also surprising. From an “eleven footer” last year, in a short space under Coach Casteel he became consistent at 12 feet 6 inches. Tillotson forged ahead in the shot, ending the winter season with a heave of better than 45 feet.^ Henry Wylie continued his brilliant work in the mile, but State’s distance hopes were given a severe set-back when Lewis Hackney, sophomore half-miler, broke the small bone in his leg and was forced out of competition. In one appearance as a college runner he branded himself as the best “880 man” ever to wear the Green. Ware- ham, an unknown sophomore, came to the front in the hurdles. I. A. C. HANDICAP MEET . State thinclads, destined before the close of the winter season, to travel more than 4,400 miles, started their “railroad competition” in the I. A. C. meet at Chicago. Although not in best form, they came through in fine style. Only Murchison of Olympic fame was able to down State’s sprinters in the 70-yard dash. Out of a field of 30 or more dash men, the Spartans qualified three for the finals—Grim, Lang, and Kroll. They finished behind the great Murchison in that order, with Grim beaten’ by less than six inches'. Alderman, rudely jostled and nearly knocked off the board track, uncorked a wonderful sprint to take second in the 300, behind Oesterich of the I. A. C. Under normal conditions he would have been an easy winner. Wylie, running his first two-mile, took second behind Phelps, former Iowa star, and a head of many veteran distance men. The State sprint medley team, composed of Alderman, Grim, Lang and Kroll, had little trouble in winning its event from the I. A. C. and the C. A. A., Alderman breezing across the tape 30 yards ahead of Murchison. STATE, 665-6; WESTERN STATE NORMAL, 431-6 State journeyed to Kalamazoo to engage W. S. N. full of misgivings. Rumors that the Teachers had a brilliant freshman contingent were not unfounded, and the Spartan team was extended to win. The running events gave State the margin of victory, over­ balancing weakness in the hurdles and high jump. Alderman and Grim pulled their cus­ tomary “one-two” stunt in the short dash, and with Lang came back to slam the furlong In one of the upsets of the meet, Fisher of the Normal beat Grim and Kroll in the quarter, but m the half Hackney loped his way to victory in the fast time of 2:05, remarkable for a small indoor track. Rossman, another green-clad runner, was on his heels. Smith of the Normal, uncovered a great sprint to give Wylie a race in the mile, but the Spartan’s finish was not to be denied. Clark, also of State, was third. Severance, running a well timed race, took the two-mile, with Wylie third. Probably the biggest surprise of the meet came when McAtee soared over the bar in the pole vault at 12 feet 2^ inches to defeat Morrow, famous W. S. N. vaulter. It was Morrow’s first defeat of his college career. Tillotson won the shot with a heave of better than 42 feet, with his side-kick, Smith, in second place. State s two relay teams also merged victors to give the score a more decisive turn. Grim, Peterson, Henson and Kroll ran the shorter event, with Alderman, Willmarth Lang and Wall winning the longer race. MICHIGAN A. A. U. MEET Amassing 47 points, almost double the; score of Detroit City College, the nearest rival, Mate won the A. A. U. track crown m its own gymnasium before a cheering crowd Ypsi- lanti, for the past two years the title holder, was forced to content itself with a meager 12 pomts. Bohn Grim was the star of the State team, amassing 16 points, more than most of the colleges entered in the meet He won the 40-yard dash, to establish a new mark of •04-5, copped first in the standing high jump, tied for first in the standing broad jump with h u-^tyu-oinClty College’ BB to Iose °n B jump-off, and was second in the 300-yard behind his fleet team-mate. He_ was given a handsome silver trophy by-Charles W. Burton oi Detroit in recognition of his all-around performance. Alderman, with a first in the Page One Hundred Thirty-seven 300, McAtee, winner of the pole vault and a new State record of 12 feet 2¿i inches, Wareham, who took second in the high hurdles and the standing high jump, Lang, with a third in the 300, Hackney, with a third in the 1,000, Kroll, with a close second in the 600, Tillotson and Barratt, with 41 feet 1^2 inches and 40 feet 2?4 inches in the shot, and the medley relay team, in third place, were others to add to the overwhelming State total. ILLINOIS RELAYS The Illinois Rela}^s found State at its best, and only the lack of superior competition is believed to have robbed Alderman and Grim of their chances to set new world records, in their favorite events. As it was, each breezed home an easy victory, Alderman taking the'300 in :3i.6 by a margin of 15 yards, and Grim winning the 75-yard dash from the cream-of the west, with plenty to spare. McAtee pulled a big surprise when he cleared 12 feet 6 inches nicely to tie for first place in the pole vault. He barely missed 12 feet 10 inches. Although he lost out on the draw for awards, the college rewarded him for his efforts by giving him a gold wratch, similar to those awarded all first place winners in the Illinois meet. Henry Wylie ran the 1,500 meter under a disadvantage, starting from the last. lane. Despite this he pulled into second place, and was only a stride behind Osif, sensa­ tional Haskell Indian, at the finish. Running in the university class, State’s mile relay team jarred the big boys by winning its heat in easy fashion, leading such teams as Drake, Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin and Minnesota to the tape. The Spartans made time only a fraction of a second behind the wanning time of Iowa, but they lacked good competition. On a comparative basis State was awarded third place. Kroll, Lang, Grim and Alderman ran for State, and they led all of the way. MICHIGAN STATE TRACK CARNIVAL State played the role of greedy host at its track carnival, winning a lion’s share of the relays. The quarter-mile and half-mile combination of Kroll, Grim, Lang and Alderman, dashed to college-carnival records in both races, making time in the half-mile nearly ten seconds better than that registered by any other Michigan institution. In the two-mile relay, Wylie’s brilliant finish was too much for Pflukè, the University of Michigan anchor man, and State won one of its rare victories over the Maize and Blue. In addition to Wylie, Williams,' Clark and Rossman ran for the Green. Reserve and Freshman teams also registered victories. McAtee, in an off moment, was forced to bow to Hathaway oí Kalamazoo in the pole vault, and Tillotson was content with fourth place in the shot. Grim raced to another victory in the 40-yard dash, with Alderman third. Kroll copped the 300, in which Henson, Grim and Alderman, in the order named, finished behind him. STATE, 75; MARQUETTE, 34 In thé only dual meet of the indoor season at East Lansing, State more than made up for the beating last year at the hands of the Marquette at Wisconsin, the Spartans piling up 75 points to 34 for the visitors. State’s “one-two” act, with Alderman, Grim, Lang and In the quarter, Kroll playing the stellar roles, piled up the points in the 40, 220 and 440. Kroll upset the dope bucket by beating his own team-mate, Grim, to break the indoor record held jointly by Ernst, and Grim, and establish a new mark of :55-S- Wylie took the mile from the touted Pfleiger of Marquette in the hardest finish ever seen here. Only in the last tw'enty yards of the race did Pfleiger admit defeat. The time of 4:35 slipped nearly ten seconds from the college record. Shimek, Pfleiger and Turek raced to victory in the two-mile to give Marquette nine points, and in the pole vault, Glaser of Marquette, with whom McAtee of State was tied at the Illinois Relays, cleared the bar at 12 feet 10 inches to win. It was the greatest vault ever made at East Lansing, indoors or out. McAtee bettered igffeet 4 inches to take second, with Olson third. Davis took the high jump, and Wareham came into his own in the hurdles with a vengeance, winning the high timbers, and tying for first with the Marquette entry in the lows. Tillotson and Smith, in their brotherly way, added eight points to State’s total with a first and second in the shot. State’s half-mile, and mile relay combinations loafed to victory, the mile team establishing a new college mark of 3:49.3. Kroll,. Grim, Lang and Willmarth set thé new record. TEXAS RELAYS Coach Young, accompanied by five fleet Spartans—Captain Alderman, Grim, Lang, Kroll and Henson—headed for Texas during the spring vacation, and here State came, through with the greatest performance in its track annals. Forced into the university class, the Spartans won both the quarter-mile and half-mile relays at Texas, setting new Carnival records in both events. Alderman and Grim were sent into the open 100-yard dash, finish­ ing second and third, a fraction of an inch behind the leader, despite the fact that neither were as yet accustomed to cinder track conditions.' In a preliminary heat, Grim flashed good form v'hen he stepped the distance in :097- The finals went in 109.8, a new relay record. Page One Hundred Thirty-eight MINOR SPORTS ACHIEVEMENT -MINOR SPORTS Improvement was_shown in every minor sport over the record of previous years. The tennis team engaged in fourteen dual meets and in two tournaments, winning eight dual meets and losing six. The team won fifty-seven matches in singles and doubles and lost forty-four. Lawrence won 65% of all matches in which he played, Hendershott 60% Stouffer 59%, Pierson 53% and Stott 50%. The cross country team was the most successful in the history of M. S. C. It won the first Annual Central Intercollegiate Conference Cross Country Run at East Lansing. Capt. Roy Severance made a splendid record and was the first State man to ever break the tape in a dual meet against the U. of Michigan. All members of the team were developed in college, none of the men having High School records. The team was developed and coached by Morton F. Mason. A Hockey team was organized by John Kobs. One. of the largest outdoor hockey rinks among Western colleges was built and games were scheduled with Notre Dame, Minnesota, Michigan, and Marquette. The largest squad _ reported to Coach Kobs since the sport was inaugurated three years ago, most of them being men from upper Michigan. Fine interest was manifested in every game, as high as 1,500 being in attendance. It is planned to build an inclosed rink as soon^ as funds are available. The outstanding game of the year was an overtime match with University of Michigan Western Conference champions. The fencing team, coached by Joseph Waffa, won meets from the University of Mich­ igan and Ohio Wesleyan University. The Freshman won two meets from the University of Michigan. The sport was more popular than in former years. Thirty men and twenty women reported for the squad. The beautiful natatorium and spacious equipment provided for swimming in the new gymnasium some eight years ago, is now coming into the full possibilities of its use with the appointment of Mr. W. Sterry Brown, a full time faculty member, as Director of the Natatorium and swimming coach. The 1926-27 swimming team has the best record of any team in the history of the college. The squad was much larger and the interest much keener under Mr. Brown than at any time in the past, with the result that a good team, with strong contenders in every event and brilliant performers in some, added special strength in certain events. More points were scored than any previous team had accom­ plished and the total points (252) were greater than all the points scored by opponents. Four meets were won—three lost. This was the first squad that produced men of caliber to enter National Collegiate Championships. Definite progress was made toward gaining recognition for swimming as a full major sport by greater strength of performance and larger interest in this sport in campus circles. A special course in Life Saving is being offered during the Spring term, which has created tremendous interest where there has been no organized swimming activities during this term in previous years. This waterman­ ship and life saving is ideal in point of instruction in a state dotted with so' many fine lakes. Wrestling was another minor sport which attracted wide interest and large attendance, the increase being from 300 to 1,300. About fifty men responded to the call of Ralph Leonard, newly acquired wrestling coach, and under his guidance the team won victories over the University of Cincinnati, Chicago., Notre Dame and Ohio University, To top off an other­ wise fine season a team was selected from the entire squad of Freshman and varsity material which won the State A. A. U. Championship from a field that was very representative of the State. The team took first place by winning four firsts and four seconds for a total score of 44. The LTniv. of Michigan was runner-up with a score of 35, winning three firsts and four seconds. The meets were broadcast over WKAR and proved very popular. The team scored 106 points against 77 for all opponents. The Men’s Rifle Team of Michigan State . College'for the season of 1927 engaged in 39 college matches, winning 16 of them. The college matches are conducted by each team firing on its own range under the supervision of a military instructor at each institution, the scores being forwarded by mail or telegraph at the close of the competition to the college or colleges engaged in the match, said scores being certified as correct and as having been fired in accordance with the contract for the match by the officers in charge of firing at the institution. In the past, due to lack of facilities or interest in shooting at various colleges, most In the last two or colleges have been able to use only a five-man team in their matches. three years, however, the majority of matches have been with a ten-man team. In addition to the college matches we fire the William Randolph Hearst Trophy match. The Corps Area match, and the winner of the Corps A Area match competes against all other winners of Corps Area matches throughout the United States (there are nine Corps Areas). The last mentioned competition is knçwn as the National Intercollegiate Rifle match. Page One Handred Forty Last September Mr. R. G. Leonard introduced soccer at Michigan State and developed a team of about thirty men. This work was in the main an experiment, as soccer is not played extensively by colleges in the middle west. Information from reliable sources indi­ cate that several Western Conference teams will take up the sport in the near future, at which time soccer will become an intercollegiate activity. The work here consisted mostly in fundamental training and one game was scheduled with an amateur team at the end of the season. Further extension of the sport is looked for next fall. Lacrosse, a game which is causing so much favorable comment today and which is highly developed among the colleges of the East and Canada, will be introduced at Michigan State during the spring term. Lacrosse is a combination of basketball and football, and is often said to be the fastest of all team games. If sufficient interest is shown a game to be played during commencement week will be scheduled with some Canadian team. This will enable the students and alumni to see a real game, and it is predicted Lacrosse will win a place in the hearts of all. During the last six months 1,400 men took part in intramural sports. Horseshoe pitch­ ing, bowling, indoor baseball, swimming, wrestling, basketball and indoor track were all organized for those men whose training and ability did not warrant their presence on the Varsity squad. On Wednesday, April 13, President Butterfield, in addressing the student body said, “So far as I can see this winter season of athletics has never been equaled in the history of the institution. I want to congratulate the coaches and men who made this possible”. This expression was made possible by an unprecedented season of major and minor sport victories which carried Michigan State to the very heights in the athletic world. The winter term marked the second milestone in the first year of expansion in the department of athletics and was the result of intensive coaching and a fine expression of the “will to win” on the part of the men of the various squads. It is but fitting to add that in no small measure the student body is responsible for the achievements gained during the past year. The send-off the football team received on each of its journeys last fall; the fine demonstration upon the team’s return from Cornell;.the loyaltj^, vand spirit shown before the home-coming game, the sportsmanlike enthusiasm, conduct displayed during the basketball season and the interest shown in the minor sports were all commendable.' Those of us who play the games, in this: small way, express our sincere appreciation. RALPH E. YOUNG,' Director of Athletics.

Sheirtz, Manager Stury Brown, Coach Page One Hundred, F orty-two REVIEW OF 1926-27 SWIMMING SEASON Swimming moved up to an important place in the physical education program this year under the full time direction of W. Sterry Brown, new Director of the Natatorium and Swimming Coach. This is the first time a faculty member has directed the swimming activities in the natatorium since the new gymnasium was completed eight years ago. The swimming squad had the most successful season a State team has enjoyed, bringing the sport up to major consideration in the minor sport class. The 1927 team now holds all the College Varsity records with the exception of the distance swims, (220 and 440 yd. Free Style). The swimming season was made up of seven dual meets of which State won four. They lost to the Western Conference Champion team of the University of Michigan, 56 to 13, at Ann Arbor. They also lost to the strong University of Cincinnati team at Cincinnati and the “Fighting Irish” team of Notre Dame at South Bend to a 38 to 31 count. This was a much better showing than last year in all of these meets. Total points in all meets gives the State squad 252 and all opponents 222. This was made possible by the all around performance of the team. Every event except the distance swims had strong representatives but usually it was confined to one first class man. Another year the distance swimmers will begin to come into their own and more contenders for winning places will develop in other events. Time for practice was so limited, owing to heavy swimming class programs running up to five o’clock, making it necessary to keep the Varsity and Frosh squads down to a minimum. Arrangements have now been made to take over the natatorium during the morning in the winter term so the classes will be disposed of before four o’clock. This will give opportunity for a big squad of Varsity and freshmen swimmers and water polo; practice, which will be an added feature of the swimming program next year. The feature meet of the season in the home tank was the final Wooster College meet, March 4th, which was won by State 45 to 24. The natatorium was beautifully decorated for the occasion in the Green and White State colors and thé decorative scheme was worked around the idea of boosting swimming for a major sport with proper interest and support. Major “S” stood out in large medallions on the balcony rail and an enormous letter “S” stood just under the twenty-one foot tower. Special lighting effects were arranged with an amber flood light of 5,000 candle power on the diving event at which tim|| the other decorated lights were out. Many special events were added to the program but nothing took from the performance of the State swimmers who lowered three College Varsity records, the 240 relay, the 180 medley, and the 100 yd. dash. Reinhold Thomas was the outstanding performer on the State squad this year. His prowess as a swimmer was not confined to one event. He went in for back stroke, breast stroke, and free style with equal success and therefore masses the greatest number of points for the team. He won the most thrilling race of the season at South end, taking the 200-yard breast stroke event from Captain Jerry Rhodes of the “Fighting Irish.” Another outstanding star was Edward Cook, specialist in fancy diving. Cook took the only: first place against the championship University of Michigan team, also taking first place against Cincinnati and Notre Dame. Flis record is unique in the pre-eminence of nine point dives and the fact that he was not graded below seven in any dive during the season. His performance from the twenty-one foot tower in the Wooster meet, before the moving picture camera was a sensational event for the crowd who attended. Alvin G. Ellinger made a remarkable record during the. season consistently lowering his time in the 50 and 100 yd. event, and now holds the college varsity record in these events and is deserving of special credit for his untiring practice and competitive spirit throughout the season. He made the most individual progress on the squad and is a glowing example of what can result from determined effort and interest in this sport.

Coach Ralph Leonard in his first year on the State campus proved the integrity he had won as wrestling coach at Penn State, and for the first time in the history of the sport here, State received its initial mat recognition. The past season opened with the University of Cincinnati forming the opposition at the Spartan gym, and the Buckeye team met defeat 19-6. With a fighting spirit and after staging a great comeback, State again came to triumph on the mat by taking the measure of the University of Chicago 14-n. In this bout Barratt, wrestling his first year for State, turned the tide when he won the heavyweight laurels to decide the issue. The best opposition of the year for the University of Michigan was provided when _ the team journeyed to Ann Arbor and held the powerful Wolverines to a 15-8 count. This was the closest margin held last season against the conference leaders. Kurrle, another first year wrestler, proved far superior to Hager in this match, gaining a fall over the Michigan light heavyweight. Gibbs, Michigan State’s greatest mat man for the past three years, kept his record of no defeats intact by winning over Bruce, U. of _M. flyweight. Following the great showing at the University of Michigan, a trip to Ohio State was in order. Captain Bergquist in the 145-pound class, and Gibbs in the flyweight division, returned with victories, but the Columbus wrestlers, as a team, proved superior to State, ;and won the verdict at 19-6. The next opposition on the almost totally Western conference schedule’ was North­ western “U”, and the Evanston team took a 19-8 win over State after Kurrle, Gibbs, and Black had successfully triumphed for the Green and White. One of the features of the season was realized one week later when Notre Dame came to East Lansing and returned'to South Bend without even scoring a point in competition. State overwhelmed the Irish grapplers 36-0. The Indiana aggregation failed to gain a time advantage during the entire match, and the Spartans won five falls,/two decisions, and a forfeit. Inspired with great confidence by the victory over Notre’ Dame, State prepared for the season finale with Ohio University two weeks later. Every man reached his top notch form and Ohio sent their entries against the Green and White contestants with equal confidence in view of the national recognition which was theirs. The Ohio Conference champions, and conquerers of West Virginia,' one of the strongest teams in America, fell before the superior grappling of Michigan State to be humbled 17-10. Compiled results of the past wrestling season reveal Frank Gibbs, undefeated flyweight contender for the western championship, as high point man. He scored 20 points in six meets, and won a blaze of glory for Michigan .State by-remaining undefeated at the con­ clusion of three years in intercollegiate competition. Harry Kurrle won the runner-up honors of the year by amassing 17 points in seven meets. Captain Alfred Bergquist was only one point below Kurrle. The Spartan team made a season’s grand total of 106 points, while the opposition registered 77. Twenty-seven individual victories and four individual championship titles were brought to the campus the past season. The State titles were' won in fast competition at Flint during the Michigan A. A. U. tournament. At the conclusion of the A^ehic City meet, Coach Leonard was awarded the 1928 classic for East Lansing. MICHIGAN CHAMPIONSHIP TITLEHOLDERS The University of Michigan fell to Michigan State by a margin of 44-35 in the finals of the annual Michigan A. A. U. tournament, and when the excitement had subsided four State titleholders returned gold medals to the Spartan trophy case. Morhardt won his 112-pound title by defeating Rubin of the U. of M. in three minutes and two seconds; Landsburg took the 135-pound championship of Michigan by throwing Hakeman of the LL of M. in eight minutes and fifty seconds; Haskins gave State a 145- pound title by winning from Marshall of Michigan in four minutes and thirty-three seconds; Ferrari tripped up Joslyn, his own teammate, in two minutes and ten seconds to annex the heavyweight honors of Michigan. Two silver runner-up medals were also garnered by Gibbs and Joslyn in the flyweight and heavyweight class, respectively. Joslyn lost in the finals to his own teammate, Ferrari, while Gibbs was the victim of circumstances. After being choked by an illegal hold, he was forced to wrestle an extra minute through an error by the timekeeper. The decision was awarded to the defending champion. Kurrle went through to the semi-final draw by winning three falls, but he, too, was turned back through officiating which gave the defending champion the odds. Page OneHundred Pofty-dve J.

The Spartan racquet wielders won ten dual meets and lost but five, playing against some of the best tennis teams in the United States. The State team finished third in the State Invitational tennis tourna­ ment with a total of 22 points scored. An eastern trip, the first of its kind ever taken by a State tennis team was a feature of last season’s schedule.

As in the two- previous years its place in the curriculum of sports was directed by Captain Clyde Kelly of the-infantry Division of the R. O. T. C. Sixteen intercollegiate .matches were won by State in telegraphic competition, while the matches in which the Spartans met defeat were all close decisions. The schools van­ quished were Connecticut Aggies, University of Maine, Penns3dvania Military College, Ohio State, Denison University, University of Wisconsin, Northwestern University, Uni­ versity of Delaware, University of North Dakota, North Dakota Aggies, University of South Dakota, University of Vermont, Gettysburg College, Creighton University, and the University of Nevada. The championship of the Sixth Corps Area of the Senior R. O. T. C. units was annexed by Michigan State sharpshooters. This area includes the R. O. T. C, colleges and schools of Michigan, Wisconsin, and Illinois. , State scored 3,576 in the title flight, while Ripon College of Wisconsin was second with 3,542. Northwestern took third with 3,522. Uni­ versity of Wisconsin was next with 3,470, and Knox College fifth with a total of 2,890. WINNERS OF MINOR“S” (Order of rank) J. H. Batten I. 2. Kenneth B. Pomeroy, Captain 3- Bernard T.

Mason developed the green material gradually, until at the end of the season it was the strongest outfit that ever carried the “S” over hill and dale. The climax'of the campaign came with the winning of the Central Intercollegiate cross-country run at East Lansing, State scoring 37 points to 47 for Marquette, 55 for Notre Dame, and 82 for Butler. Captain Roy Severance, by dint of hard work and careful conditioning, developed into an ideal leader for the team. He was always the first Spartan to cross the tape in every meet, taking second to Pfleiger of Marquette in the Intercollegiates, ahead of such redoubt­ able runners as Young; of Notre Dame and Shimeck of Marquette. His crowning triumph came in the rtieet with Michigan, when he crossed the finish line an easy victor, the first winner that State has had in thi-s historic dual in many years. His. record was: Notre Dame vs. M. S. C..............2nd Michigan vs. M. S. C.....................1st Marquette vs. M. S.......................3rd Cent. Inti Con..................................2nd Tough luck robbed the Spartans of three dual meets, Notre Dame winning by one point, the final score being 27 to 28. ' Michigan won from State, 23 to 32, and Marquette emerged victor, 24 to 31. The Spartans, however, scored their revenge in the C. I. C. run. Henry Wylie/ captain-elect, ran his first season of cross-country and did remarkably well. His finishing sprint, that has carried him to so many firsts in the mile, made him a competitor who was always dangerous. He was fourth in the Central Intercollegiates, passing several runners on the home stretch, to be nosed out at the finish by Shimeck. Minor sport letters were awarded to Henry Wylie, Ray Severance, Alvin La Plante, Herrick Waterman, Eugene Williams and Leonard Blakeslee. A small and inexperienced Freshmen squad also reported to Coach Mason at the start of the season. Only one man, Loren Brown, had run before. The rest were newcomers to the sport. The Yearlings pulled a big surprise when the State Intercollegiates rolled around, however. Brown galloped home to an easy first, a full quarter-mile ahead of the field, with Roberts, a team-mate, in second place. Roosien, another green runner, was in seventh place, and dope fans computed that the Freshmen could have won the meet had they had two other men in twenty-fourth and twenty-fifth. The other State yearlings, however, were much farther back than this, and instead, the Freshmen were forced into a tie for third place with Kalamazoo Normal. Brown, the yearling captain, is being counted on to add considerably power to the varsity squad next fall. Although small of stature, his mechanical stride and sturdy deter­ mination have spelled woe to many a famous opponent. None of the great field of 50 men that competed in the State Intercollegiates were able to'match his pace in the closing miles of the race, and there was a long and embarrassing wait after Brown had crossed the tape before the rest of the field hove in sight. And the chagrin of coaches from many state colleges was not relieved when another blue jersey, flaunted by Roberts, was out ahead. Roberts gained his honor 83^ virtue of a brilliant and lengthy finishing sprint. Only three numerals were awarded. They were given to Loren Brown of Detroit, Floyd Roberts of Rapid River, and Elmer Roosien of Grand Hayen.

Last fall's yearlings looked about as sweet an aggregation of pigskin chasers as ever represented a freshman class at M. S. C., and it is predicted that they will be a great help to Coaches Young and Traynor when the 1927 season rolls around. The yearlings had everything that was needed to constitute a real football squad. They had kickers, passers, plungers and buckers. They had sparkling ends, big crashing tackles, fast guards, and accurate passing centers. Coaches Kobs and Van Alstyne introduced them to the State style of play and in their innumerable scrimmages with the varsity, the yearlings showed very well. Toward the end of the football season a game was scheduled with Ferris Institute. Ferris had an exceptional team this season and had won practically all games played. The wearers of the State “30” fulfilled all expectations and gained a remarkable victory over the Upstaters, 33 to o. Later in the season the annual game between the two freshman squads was staged when Capt. Define’s Greens defeated Capt. Toslin’s Blues.

S. C. Coach Traynor’s yearlmgs developed fast and won five games out of the six matches that they participated in. They were, according to the local coaches, the fastest and the highest scoring freshmen team ever developed here. Nine men received their numerals and, if they all return to school, prospects are bright or an outstanding team next year. NUMERAL MEN H. N. Schan, Captain F. J. Den Herder H. C. Priest, Manager A.

In fact some of the Freshmen came dangerously close to smashing several of the varsity records. Only two meets were held but in each one, the Freshmen scored well over a hundred points to their opponents thirty. They walloped both Mt. Pleasant and Alma, both strong contenders. A lot of splendid material was uncovered and if all return to school in the fall, there will be a real varsity squad next year. Some of the shining lights of the squad were: Lang, Kroll and Henson, in the hurdles; Hackney and Clark, in the distance runs; McAtee and Olson, in the pole vault; Diller and Davis,; in the high jumps; Barratt, in the shot, and Joachim, in the javelin.

Two delegates, Ruth Norton and Mary Ella Fahrney, were Sent to the national convention held at Cornell University in April. This was made possible through the various monejr-making schemes of the organ­ ization. The W. A. A. Bridge at the beginning of spring term, the selling of apples at the football games, and the selling of hot dogs at the skating rink were among the ingenious schemes. : The Ice Carnival, which was the first of its kind at M. S. C., was sponsored by the association. W._ A. A. is continually increasing in numbers, and enthusiasm within the organization is growing. A far greater number of awards were presented this year, which is an indication of the increasing interest in women’s athletics on this campus.

Olson, I. D. Ball, J. I WKAR Probably no other group of students on the campus can claim a wider background of experience than can the seven operators of station WKAR. Although manned entirely by students the college station is one of a very few in the United States that can boast of four iirst class commercial operator’s licenses on its walls. If a story of the adventures of these seven men were written it would include all manner of thrilling incidents. There would be the sending of SOS calls for two shipwrecks, there would be experiences of radio work in France during the war. Two of the operators saw considerable service in the navy, including cruises in foreign waters. Another operator spent fourteen months as radio operator on the great lakes. One of the incidents of the work at WKAR this year was the making of tests between the station and the Detroit- Grand Rapids aeroplane during its flight between those points. An example of the resourcefulness of this group occurred this last winter term when the entire antenna of the station came down in a mass of wreckage and the operators worked in a biting wind all day to repair the antenna enough to keep up the regular programs.

Sherburne, Cav. DoL, Michigan State College will soon be possessed with one of the finest combined armory and demonstration hall buildings in the country^ structure to mark the progress of State,College is being built, beyond the traditional Red Cedar river, and its dedication will occur May 13, 1927- . The new field house, as it will be generally known, will have a maximum seating capacity of 8,800 when the use of bleacher seats is necessitated. The spacious riding hall for the cavalry cadets will be joo feet m width and 220 feet deep. This will be , one of the largest riding, halls to be found anywhfire in the United States, and a permanent Seating arrangement for review of drills, will permit nearly 4000 spectators. The feature room of the main floor will be the large assembly- hall, ooxioo feet in size, which will be- the scene of all military functions and will be utilized for college dances on many occasions. Large classes in militarj1' tactics will be conducted in this room. The larger area, to be mainly used for a riding hall will not only provide space for demon- strations of the military division, but it will also be used by the^ department of athletics for basketball games. A basketball court such as used in the Yost Field House at the University of Michigan will be constructed for placement in the center of the huge riding hall. Permanent military offices will be provided for the army officers of the department, and these will be constructed on a lower level than the rows of seats which will bank either side of the interior. Class room space for students of the newly created physical education department will also be a feature of the educational phase of Demonstration Hall The athletic system will again receive a much needed addition to its facilities when the splendid indoor track is completed. With a huge seating capacity and excellent track available, Mich- igan State will undoubtedly make considerable progress,in building up the, home attraction for the sport which is making athletic history for the Spartans at present. Many large indoor carnivals loom for the near future, when the provisions to build an ideal track have materialized. A variety of facilities, which are lacking at present in the. military and athletic systems, will be provided upon the completion of the new field house. One large room is to be devoted to the display of trophies won in competition and for use of the American Legion as a club room. Recreational and lodge room space will be granted Scabbard and Blade, distinguished military honorary, and the: Cadet Officer’s Club. The basement of the new structure will make possible an indoor rifle range, which has long been needed on the campus. Both the men and co-ed rifle teams here have won national distinction in the last few years, and with this added facility even greatei progress is expected. The range will be 60 feet wide and 160 feet in length. The distinguished State College Military Band will also find its new headquarters m the field house where a spacious band room has been provided. Lacking a suitable auditorium in past years has deprived Michigan State of many large, conventions which it could have sponsored. With the new field house in readiness splendid auditorium space will be afforded all conventions and large .meetings, as well as college pro ductions. A normal seating capacity of 7,500 will be possible for such occasions., In connection with college functions and campus conventions,.-a dining hall space will be pro­ vided in the field house. The serving room can readily accommodate i,ooo people. When the old armory, on the campus proper, is demolished to mark the advent of Demonstration Hall, the military garage near the New Library building will be razed as well. The mammoth field house will contain garage space for the military trucks, machine shop and heavy artillery equipment. Plans for the near future, following the completion of Demonstration Hall proper, call for a paved road from the main -entrance to the bridge, which extends over the Red Cedar near the gymnasium. This wide expanse of cément would facilitate military drill, when the riding hall was in use, or when the weather was inclement. A landscaping pro­ gram calling for the expenditure of several thousand dollars will beautify, the grounds :oi the new field house extending in the general directions-ôf the stadium and the baseball diamond. Bronze tablets, serving as memorials to distinguished soldiers of Michigan, will grace the large assembly hall. Three will be dedicated this spring, with formal unveiling of the others next Armistice Day. Page Three Hundred Twenty-nine 1927 MICHIGAN STATE UNION PRODUCTION Selection of the annual 1927 production of the Michigan State Union marked the advent of a new era in stage policy and scale, a complete change from the type of productions sponsored in other years, and so complete was the deviation from custom that a professional director was secured to give future productions of the Union the desired impetus to which the 1927 offering was destined. “That’s That”, presented at the Prudden Auditorium in Lansing on February 4 and 5, was a striking musical comedy, a most fitting innovation in Union circles for the change from the former theatrical attempts. The 1927 presentation was the first musical comedy to be sponsored by the Union, and it was with a view to the future expansion demanded in annual productions, that this offering was produced. Stage direction under the guidance of Mr. Larry Doyle, Jr., of New York City, asso­ ciated with the John Rogers Producing Company, brought forth, and developed, the finest talent and stage ability to be found on the campus. Director Doyle came to the campus with the highest of credit, being recognized as one of the foremost chorus directors in America. Grouped about him were every type of candidate for the master production of the Union. A huge cast assembled in skeleton met his touch, a certain professional fineness was added, the theme of “That’s That” was inspired, and the final cast of 128 students was shaped. The result was, in the words of the press, “the greatest accomplishment Michigan State College has ever made on the stage”. “A truly great production, which places the M. S. C. Union on an equal basis with the University of Michigan Union in productions”, was the characterization which still another paper made. “That’s That”, spectacular as a musical comedy, came to the Michigan State campus direct from its original casting at the University of Pennsylvania. In every detail it marked the largest undertaking ever attempted by the student body here. The retinue for the production included 132 college actors, comprising twelve excellent leading roles, each portraying a marked degree of stage ability. The cast numbered 104 co-eds, whose acting possessed a most versatile appeal for the audience. Eleven chorus groups, featuring mas­ queraders, bathing beauties de luxe, show girls, and East Side Bowery characters, added to the variety of mannerisms brought forth in “That’s That”. The theme of the production centered around the high flinging, and exotic society of Palm Beach, with a 'true college atmosphere retained throughout. Splendid musical numbers, each introducing an excep­ tionally well trained chorus group, a carload of costumes, and scenery direct from Chicago, and the genuine hilarity of the entire cast, made “That’s That” resplendent with color. H. Lyle Lyons, ’28, playing the male lead in a fine fashion, was billed as Kenneth Jones, son of thé millionaire bottle king of America, played by George Louis Dirks, ’27, president of the student council. Lyons, as Jones, traveled incognito as a life guard among the social set of Palm Beach, Florida, eventually falling into a desperate and passionate love affair with Eloise Reswick, the prima donna of “That’s That”, played by the attractive Miss Geraldine Wolcott Burk, a freshman on the campus. Lyons performed exceptionally well as a life guard, as a member of the social elite, and as Kenneth the lover. Dirks earned the hand of his audience throughout the production with his superb portrayal of a millionaire father, whose time was divided equally between his business and two children, Kenneth, I'age Three Hundred Thirty his wayward or rather erratic son, and Nanette, his flirtatious daughter, who had fallen in love with Martin Morris, a college chum of Kenneth’s, who as luck would have it, was also sojourning at Palm Beach. Miss Alice Teel, ’29, very cleverly played the part of Nanette in true professional fashion. Martin Morris, the unexpectedly appearing college chum, was played by Pierre Kenyon, ’29, and both his character portrayal and singing lines won praise of the critics. Miss Clara Wilson, ’30, who played opposite Dirks as the “mother of Nanette and Kenneth, proved very adept as a reserved society matron, and slated with a heavy singing part, she fulfilled the task splendidly. Miss Burk, the pnma donna of the show, carried her part to near perfection, when she marked it with a natural and unassuming color that hinted professional finesse. Three comedy roles, splendidly played, extended the variety of ‘ That s That , and created several of the real hits of the production. “Mickey” Sullivan, of New York and elsewhere, characterized by Perry Fremont, ’27, erstwhile baseball star, and Mamie Rimer, his sweetheart, taken by Miss Alice Giltner, ’30, charming daughter of the equally fluent and loquacious Dean Ward Giltner, teamed to present a vivid reflection of life in Lower Sixth. Fremont’s portrayal of a Bowery “tough” was exacting in its splendid reality, while Miss Giltner afforded the production with its genuine comedian versatility and vivaciousness. Last, but in no way least, the wonderful acting by Irving. S. Edwards, ’27, and Miss Margaret Elubbard, ’29, is deserving of considerable commendation, which in rapidity is commensurate with the entire praise extended to the production. Edwards, as Eddie Dewey, a butter and egg man from Iowa, will long be remembered for his excellent chaiacteriza- tion which greatly built up the comedy side of the production, as well as fortified the straight acting of the play. Miss Hubbard, as Letitia Brownell, a social climber, gave another demonstration of stage ability likened to that displayed by Miss Burk m the leading role, inasmuch as she performed in an entirely unassuming manner, and with a natural air, that again hinted at professional artifice. The dual moral of the theme was only unraveled as the final curtain neared, when Eddie and Letitia added a bit of melodrama, carried it to a climax, and then impressed the meaning of one love into the audience, just as they had shown each other the equal simplicity of their lives. Miss June Ranney, ’27, as a hotel guest, Miss Arlene Walk, ’28, and Miss Loretta Fillion, ’30, playing minors in the cast, each performed creditably. Willie Hopp, the self- assuming bell boy, played by Franklin Howland, ’27, was an equally well carried role. The staff of the 1927 production, which was- instrumental in the success of the under­ taking, was divided under five appointments made by the Union Board upon recommendation of Norval E. Tyrrell, ’27, previously named Student Director., J- Dale Medill, 28, was named Publicity Director and given charge of the advertising and publicity campaign, which was carried out on a state-wide basis for the first time in the history of Union productions. Seeking to advertise not only the production itself, but the Union and the college as well, an extensive campaign was in vogue. Working with the Publicity Director in aiding him to conduct the state-wide campaign were, Levon Horton, ’28, Russell M. Daane, 28, Wayne Barkwell, ’28, and Henry W. Martindell, ’30. Morris Green, ’28, was named program director, with Paul Larkey, 28, as his assistant. Paul M. Anderson, ’27, was stage manager, and James K. McElroy, ’27, his assistant. ^ The ticket sales campaign was conducted by Harold F. Marsh, ’28. John Olson, ,’27, William Kane, ’29, Max Doer, ’30, and Richard Amerson, ’29, aided in this task. Philip Olin, ’29, was house manager. James F. Trott, ’28, designed the art work for the production. Page Three Hundred Thirty-one MEN’S DEBATE TEAM R. Hair, T. Ramsdell, H. Smith D. McPherson, R.

Glerum, ’28 U With the acquiring of a new debate coach, Michigan State took a decided step forward in forensic circles during the 1927 intercollegiate season, and only lost the honors of the tri-state league by narrow margins, falling to Purdue 1-0, and then losing to the University of Marquette by the same verdict. Marquette replaced Iowa in the tri-state association upon the Hawkeye’s^ request to withdraw from that body. The longest road trip in several years carried the Michigan State team through the East, and won platform recognition for State. Purdue was met at Lafayette, Indiana, in the first road debate, and the Boilermakers won the lone decision, after State had conquered the University of Detroit 2-1 on the East Lansing platform a week earlier. Both debates found State opposing modification of the prohibition amendment, which was the subject of the Pi Kappa Delta, national inter­ collegiate debating season for 1927. Richard ML Hair, ’27, Thomas J. Ramsdell, ’29, and Milton D. Burgh, ’29, were the State representatives chosen by Coach W. H. Wise for these two initial debates. Reversing the former Michigan State stand on the question at Valparaiso University, a 2-1 victory was gained by the Indiana trio. Hair, Ramsdell, and Carl W. Kietzman spoke for State. “Should a league of English speaking peoples be formed in the interests of world peace?” was the question which confronted the Green and White team at the University of Kentucky, and after meeting the .Southerners on their own ground, State was forced to satisfaction with a no decision result. Taking the affirmative of a question which sought favor for the complete abolition of the Eighteenth Amendment, State fell to Bucknell Universit}^ at Lewisburg, Pennsylvania, but staged a comeback two nights later to win from Penn State at State College, Pennsyl­ vania, in a forensic, clash on prohibition. State opposed the proposed modification to permit the sale and manufacture of beer and light wines. The home debate with Marquette found Ralph F. Boylan, ’29, Harry Smith, ’28, and Carl Kietzman, ’27, upholding the State side of the argument. Page Three Hundred, Thirty-two CO-ED DEBATE Mary Biebesheimer, Katharine McPherson, Thelma Fstelle Virgiriia Dell, Margaret Winters, Mildred Markel Florence Huntly, Florence Albright, Madeliene Rohlf Forensic success marked the efforts of the Michigan State co-ed debaters during the past season, which culminated on May 5 with a dual meet at the University of Toledo. Under the tutelage of Coach Henry W. Blake, co-ed debating received an impetus _ here during the year which points toward an even greater degree of success in the 1928 inter­ collegiate competitions. The past year marked the advent of Coach Blake to the State campus and the showing of his proteges during his first year as coach is commendable. He came to State from the University of Illinois, after having graduated from the Uni­ versity of Wisconsin in 1924. His record in forensic coaching at Illinois was a highly successful one, and with the material developed this year, 1928 should mark considerable progress in co-ed debate circles. The season opened with a mid-western trip following the Christmas holidays, and Wheaton College, of Wheaton, 111., was the first scene of platform clash. The Illinois team won a decision over the traveling team from State in spite of a splendid showing by the latter. Lawrence College and Carroll College, both of Wisconsin, were met on their own floors and held to no-decision verdicts. An impressive improvement was noted in each of these debates in the Badger state, and the State team returned to East Lansing to prepare for the triangular meet with Western Normal of Kalamazoo, and Albion College. The road team, which was chosen by Coach Blake after, competitive try-outs, was comprised ’27, and Mrs. Mildred of Miss Florence Alice Allbright, Markle, ’27. ’27, Miss Margaret Winters, The question for intercollegiate debating during the past season was, “Resolved, that Congress Should Adopt a Uniform Marriage and Divorce Code”.- This subject was deter­ mined by Pi Kappa Delta, national honorary forensic fraternity for men and women. Following the triangular meet with Albion and Western Normal, State clashed with Toledo University on the home platform. The Ohio team won a close decision over Miss Mary Biebesheimer, ’29, Miss Thelma Estelle, ’29, and Miss Virginia Dell, ’30, who com­ prised the Michigan State team. The season finale, scheduled on May 5, saw the affirmative team on the same question engaged at Toledo in a return debate, This team was composed of Miss Florence Huntley, ’30, Miss Katherine McPherson, ’29, and Miss Madeline Rohlf, ’27.

Coming to Michigan State five years ago Colonel Sherburne set out to establish a record as Professor of Military Science and Tactics which would be commensurate with the 1924. saw the constant enviable record he had made in the service of the United States. efforts of a great leader rewarded when the Michigan State R. O. T. C. was selected by the U. S. Department of War as having won “Distinguished College Rating”. The following year saw the crack cadet unit take away the same honors, and in 1926 State College became one of the few colleges to ever possess three consecutive recognitions of honor from the War Department. Not content with having directed our cadets in their achievement, Col. Sherburne foresaw the need of more suitable quarters for the unit, and the need of expand­ ing the facilities of the department. Nearing completion at this writing is the culmination of his efforts in that direction—a splendid new field house to be-known as “Demonstration Hall”. Towering across the Red Cedar from the campus proper, this, elaborate building will present an auspicious attraction to undergraduates, alumni, and visitors. Colonel Sherburne has an extremely enviable military record in the, service he has ren­ dered to his country. During his college days at Louisiana State University he was a cadet officer in the Louisiana R. O. T. C. He left the southern university when the Spanish-' American war was declared in 1898 to-become a second lieutenant in the First Louisiana In 1899 he became a second lieutenant in the regular army. Prior to receiving Infantry. this commission he had been cited for bravery after serving in twenty-one skirmishes during the Philippine Insurrection, during which he was wounded in action. He had served in both Alaska and Panama when he was commissioned first lieutenant in. the regular army in 1911. The Punitive Expedition into Mexico three .years later saw Colonel Sherburne again under his flag in action. After following this expedition with service on the Mexican border he became a captain in 1916. Then came the World War, and 1917 brought him the rank of major and orders taking him to France. He served as division signal officer of the second and later of the fourth regular army divisions, during which service he saw action in the battle of St. Mihiel, in the Aisne-Marne defensive, the„ Aisne-Marne. offensive, the Meuse- Argonne offensive, and in the first and second army defensive sectors. While m France Colonel Sherburne was again wounded and cited for gallantry. In 1918 he was commissioned to his present status, Lieutenant-Colonel. Later he served with the American Army of Occupation in Germany, coming to Michigan State in the year of 1922. Page Three Hundred Thirty-seven STUDENT OFFICERS’ CLUB t J \ 1 For the second time in the history of the institution the cadet corps passed the thousand mark and kept pace with the rapid growth of the college. A keener interest on the part of the student body marked the R. O. T. C. unit during the past year which again saw the Distinguished Rating” conferred by the U. S. Department of War, while the officers are appreciative of the efforts and co-operation of President Butterfield in attaining the numer­ ous successes of 1926. The annual War Department official inspection took place for 1926 on May 24-25, and it was at that time that the third consecutive national honor was bestowed upon the proteges of Col. Sherburne and his corps of cadets. This year the official inspec­ tion will start on May 26, and hopes are held high for a favorable recommendation by the War Board. Adding to the features of the local R. O. T. C. during the past year were the presence on all military occasions of the corps and unit sponsors chosen by the cadets from the co-eds'ranks, and the weekly parades, which attracted many interested visitors to the It campus. The annual Military Ball was an important event in the life of the cadet. marked the first official appearance of the military sponsors who had been installed in mil­ itary fashion on December 3. Cadet Colonel Ivan C. Collett headed the Michigan State R. O. T. C. for the past year, while Miss Ruth Norton, 27, was chosen sponsor for the entire military contingent. This unique honor marked her as the choice of the more than a Thousand cadets. Major E. B. Gray, of the Coast Artillery Corps, was the executive officer of the local unit.

Colonel DISTINGUISHED COLLEGE RATING The R. O. T. €. unit records of the United States Department of War contain a rare insertion after the entry—Michigan State College. Upon inspection of the report from the Examining Board we find “Distinguished Rating” conferred upon the Michigan State unit for three consecutive years, 1924, 1925 and 1926. Pursuing the annals of history attached to the local R. O. T. C. we find that 1919 also saw this same honor bestowed. To receive this official recognition of the War Department for three Consecutive years is an achieve­ ment to be proud of. It signifies distinction in drill and is the highest rating possible to attain in relation to military perfection, by a cadet corps of the R. O. T. C. Only ten distinguished ratings are made by the War Department each year, Major L; B. Gray Coast Artillery Corps Executive Officer Isabel Laird Corps Sponsor Stanley Green Cadet Major ARTILLERY UNIT The artillery unit of the Michigan State R. O. T. C. is concerned with instruction in infantry work as well as with practical service in various types of heavy artillery and anti­ aircraft tactics. The summer camp for the advanced military men of the artillery unit was conducted last summer, as in past years, at the historic Fort Monroe, Virginia. Captain W. H. Warren, Coast Artillery, was the regular officer in charge of this branch, while Captain P. W. Hardie was a member of the regular army staff. Miss Isabel J. Laird, ’28, was chosen as artillery sponsor by the members of this unit. Cadet Stanley E. Green, ’27, was the Cadet Major of the artillery. Page Three Hundred Forty Capt. Parson U. S. Cavalry Arla Pangborn Cavalry Sponsor JT. McElroy Cadet Major CAVALRY UNIT During the spring term the cavalry unit of the R. O. T. C. flourished at its best, pre­ senting a decided feature of military precision with its excellent drilled riding cadets. Mounted instruction was a routine part of the program for cavalry cadets, and the excep­ tional supply of mounts furnished by the government added to the appearance of the corps. Captain R. E. Larson, U. S. Cavalry, was the ranking officer of the unit, while Cadet James K. McElroy, ’27, was chosen Cadet Major of the cavalry. Miss Aria Pangborn, ’27, was the choice of the cavalrymen for unit sponsor. The summer camp for cavalrymen was held at Fort Sheridan, Illinois, last summer, as in other years.

Miss Catherine Phillips, ’28, was chosen by the infantrymen for unit sponsor. Page Three Hundred Forty-tzvOi K. Kuhlman Director Margery Barnard Band Sponsor James Hands Drum Major BAND One of the leading military bands in America added to the appearance of .^Michigan State athletic teams and upon other occasions during the past year. Both in concert work and in parade drill the State College Military Band won unique distinction as an exceptional unit, and the words of one of the leading officers of the United States army pay true respect to the merits of the organization. His characterization after reviewing the band was: “Michigan State College has one of the finest college military bands in the country, both in appearance and in tonal quality.” Director Karl Kuhlman was captain of the band and its ranking officer, while .C. O. Wilkins was first lieutenant, Charles R. Doyle, 27, was presi­ dent of the band, and Miss Margery P. Barnard, ’27, was the choice of the members for band sponsor. Secretary Herman H. Halladay of the college administrative staff was super­ visor of the band. Cadet Captain James Hands, ’27, was drum major, and his work in leading the band upon all parade occasions is worthy of considerable merit. Page Three Hundred Forty-three M. S. C.

A commendable showing was made.on Ferry Field in Ann Arbor the day of the Michigan game^ and later m the season the merits of the unit were brought forth in comparison with me Cornell band at Ithaca, N. Y. This trip was made possible through the efforts of Secretary xlalladay and he accompanied the band. Among the other fall term appearances was a military parade on Armistice Day, with the Military Band taking an important part. Ihe winter term opening was preceded by the brilliant military sponsor installations on December 3. Winter term saw the band taking part in basketball entertainments during the games. The season was ,opened by the band appearance for the Adrian tilt and closed by its presence at the Notre Dame game. . During the past year many appearances of the band at a variety of conventions, meet­ ings, and host of occasions, added to the crowning success of the organization. The annual band banquet was held at the Hotel Olds following the conclusion of the gridiron season, while the members also attended and rendered music for the All-State prep school banquet sponsored by the Central Michigan Alumni Association at the Union. The House of Repre­ sentatives were granted an entertainment by the band, while a principal portion of the Farmers Week program saw the band on hand. On March 11, the organization were guests of the Michigan Teachers’ Association at Bad Axe, playing before its state meeting. The full contingent appeared on Drill Field April 25 to render music for the military review by Governor Green. A day later the state convention of the Rotary Club at the Hotel Olds attracted the Spartan musicians, and the annual trip to Benton Harbor was made on May 2. Lansing also reviewed the band this spring when it appeared in parade for the Lansing Children’s Welfare League. The spring term activities of the band opened in full swing with the appearance of the unit on April 13 to commemorate the initiation of the 1927'baseball season. President K. L. Butterfield tossed the first ball of the year to Secretary Halladay, while the band added to the occasion in splendor. One of the most important annual functions of the band is-its presence for all com­ mencement activities in June. The annual state high school band tournament, which is sponsored by the State College Military Band,, is also on the remaining program for this year. Grand Rapids South high won the class A honors last year, while Paw Paw high took the class B laurels. The presence of the “Swartz Creek Band” upon the occasion of many college functions should also be given credit. An innovation in band circles was made the day of the Michigan baseball game at Ann Arbor this spring, when a “Chinese Band” made its advent, directed by John Wanamaker, ’29. With members chosen from the regular band unit, this group disguised itself in the shrouds of the Orient and added attractive color to the occasion. Page Three Hundred Forty-four MEMBERS OF THE M. S.

O. T. C. Horse Show outrivals any similar event in the mid-west, and is fast taking its place of high recognition in the nation. The efforts of Lieut. Colonel Thomas L. Sherburne have been instrumental in elevating the annual horse show to the plane it now occupies on the spring calendar. The 1927 event will be the fifth annual show to be held on the campus. Since the innovation of the affair here, so great was the attraction, that the State Board of Agriculture established a revolving fund to perpetuate the movement. This has made possible the offering of a premium list which ranks the equal of those characterizing the larger national shows. Many stables throughout the country will be represented this year, and the event carded for May 30 and 31 promises to surpass any previous show sponsored by the R. O. T. C. In Michigan and the entire west, the M. S. C. horse show is recognized as one of the ranking social events of the season, attracting spectators as well as entries from Chicago, Cleveland, Indianapolis and through­ out many other mid-western states. Many new classes and prizes will be programmed this season, and the show is expected to develop into a remarkable display of horsemanship as well as a review of exceptional steeds. Hon. Frank Navin, owner of the Detroit Tigers, and Acting President of the American Baseball League, is the donor of one of the prin­ cipal trophies to be awarded this year. Two new features in the way of social events have been planned in connection with the 1927 show. Opening on the afternoon of May 30, a second showing will be scheduled for that evening, after which an elaborate, dancing party has been booked for the Hotel Olds. Following the party will be a midnight dinner to close the opening day program. Tuesday, May 31, marks the closing review, which will be preceded by another innovation in this year’s plans. An unique affair will be the “Horse Show Breakfast” on the early morning of the second day. Colonel Sherburne is President of the 1927 Horse Show, and he has designated the appointment of Dr. John P. Hutton as permanent secretary of the affair. Judges chosen for the event are J. Garner West, of Granville, N. Y., and Thomas J. Jones, of Middleton, Kentucky. Captain P. W. Hardie is chairman of the ring committee; Major E. B. Gray heads the reception committee; Dean Frank Kedzie is chairman of entertainment; Captain W. H. Warren will arrange the seating and parking; Captain Joseph H. Hinwood will act as clerk of the show; Dr. E. K. Sales is veterinarian, while Captain Ernest Johns will have charge of the stables and parking.

Special refreshments were usually served during the social hour. This phase of the program was unanimously assigned to Carl Haskins of Ovid, who always lived up to his envious reputation for variety and deliciousness. In addition to the weekly meeting the club also sponsored several parties under the direction of the party committee of which Walter Wolfgang of Ypsilanti was assigned the responsibility of chairmanship. . The many business matters and- plans too numerous to bring to the attention of the entire Club were handled by a governing body made up of officers of the Club, Chairmen of the Program, Refreshment, and Party Committees and the class representatives of the various classes.

But never fear children, for luck wasn’t with Ozzy for long, because our dear old “Uncle” John who happened to be in the offing during all these goings on, rushed into the midst of the mob and began distribut­ ing stick candy to the boys and “Lucky Strikes” to the girls. The co-eds put up see how some of these handsome basketeers can go for an entire game without being called more than four times for holding or personal contact. At any rate they don’t practice such things when they’re coming home from the winter formal in a taxi! the BASKETBALL , During the winter term when the fresh­ men lay away their “pots” in moth balls and bring out their toques, and the upper­ classmen keep their eyes open for fresh­ men with fur coats who might make pros­ pective pledges, and the co-eds begin won­ dering how many formal party dates they can rate, and there is ice on the Red Cedar, and very little heat in the radiators, the basketball big quintette' becomes center of attraction. Those men whose broad shoulders and dimpled knees stand out to best advantage within the scanty attire of the basketball men of today are picked for the team. They practice passing, and shooting, and blocking, and dribbling, and defensive play and offensive play; and then once, or sometimes twice, a week five boys from some other college whose uni­ forms will blend harmoniously with the. green and white of State will come up or down here and they have it out to see who can throw the ball through the little round hoop the most number of times. And when the team “sinks one”, as they say, the crowd becomes quite hilarious and perhaps some freshman catches perfect well meaning the spirit of the thing, slaps some poor, darling little co-ed, on the back, she gasps, swallows her gum and alas, alack! she has lost her dear, innocent, loving expression which co-eds at basketball games or in classes or most anywhere simply must have. Then there are those tense moments with only a few seconds to play, the score is tie, and State has a chance for a foul shot— that’s not as bad as one might think, it’s simply a free-throw. Silence hangs over the: crowd, professors chew the ends off their neckties, co-eds nervously tear their little handkerchiefs into shreds, and sleepy sophomores sit up straight and Look alive.

The bird in the middle of the diamond wound up and threw the ball, apple, pill, spheroid, horse- hide, at the man with the stick who in self- defense swung and knocked, slapped, hit, rapped, struck the ball to the third base- man, third sacker, hot corner man. Seeing what he had done, he with the stick threw away his bat, club, hickory, and started to In the meantime he who had fielded run. the ball whipped, pegged, threw it to the first baseman, initial sacker, whereupon he with the mattress became much disturbed and throwing his' hands in the air cried “You’re out.” At this the crowd burst in cheers, applause, yells. Then another man advanced to the bat and shook his stick at the pitcher, hurler, tosser, twirler. This pitcher and catcher together were an­ nounced as a battery, two dry-cells no doubt. Well, the pitcher made a bad break and the batter knocked out a high one, the pitcher, realizing that whatever went up must come down, waited patiently and not wishing to have to stoop over to recover the ball caught it as it passed him. The man sitting next to me said he flied-out but it looked more to me like a fade-out ’cause nothing happened. The next feller swung a mean stick and slapped the ball far out into the field, daisies, garden, and after a performance which made Shakespeare’s “Comedy of Errors” look like a dime novel they finally got it back. Meanwhile he who had thus disgraced himself by knock­ ing like that began to run. He crossed the initial bag, rounded the key-stone sack, passed over the hot-corner base, and at this point becoming interested I asked the fel­ : Following the old custom of ladies and children first, we’ll first treat with soccer because that’s probably the youngest sport on the campus. To be a soccer player you wear short pants and big shoes and you’ve always gotta have a kick cornin’, and if you can kick the other fellow in the shins with­ out him kickin’ you, you stand a good chance of making the team. If you play on what’s known as the forward line you just run and run, and before the game’s over not only you are in short pants but your breath comes in short pants too. It’s illegal to use your hands in this game but there’s nothing in the rules that says you can’t use your head. There are two ways of using your head in this gentle sport and if you practice both ways in a single game you’re a star player.

The things on his legs are shock-absorbers. He needs lots of protection. The girls say some of the boys certainly do cut pretty figures on the ice, but that’s an old onepgso just overlook it. On game days there is usually a thaw or rain, so the boys don’t always have a chance to do their stuff, but still let it be said to their credit, they’re not a bad bunch of ice­ men ! * * * A great percentage of the uneducated masses rests upon the necks of college students.

It’s a great sport, but you can’t keep a freshman down, he’s bound to come up for air, besides it’s often confoundedly cold in those limpid muddy waters.

The night was dark, the road unfrequented and it was past three o’clock. Suddenly the motor gave a few dying gasps and stopped. The boy made an earnest effort to start the engine, but failed. After getting out and looking over the car he turned to the girl, embarrassed, and said: “This is most unfortunate. The gasoline tank seems to be full of water and we can’t move a foot.” His fair companion was far less per­ turbed. Said she: “Come on inside and stop looking wor­ ried. This has happened to me before. All we have to do is to sit in the back seat for about an hour , and the water turns right back into gasoline again.” Page Three Hundred Sixty-eight you ever.saw.”. “Yeh? what’s her name? says the first fellow gaspingly as■ his ad­ versary gets body scissors on him. “Betty Jane, a bim from Abby..

Then the ump gave the signal to give way and the two opponents started poking at each other. They each had a large strainer over their head so they wouldn’t mar their school-boy com­ plexions. I stood by and watched ’em while they I was scared - until I saw that the swords had corks on the ends of ’em. That made the game a little safer. I don’t know^ why they call the swords “foils” unless it’s be­ cause every time one of the birds that was fightin’ got “Coises, foiled again!” just like Rudolph does in “Hairbreadth Harry”. the battle warmed up and the boys were clang­ ing their swords (I mean foils) together at a great rate when all of a sudden one of ’em gives a twist of his wrist and a sudden poke, a “thrust” the coach called it, and the other fellow’s foil parted company with him. Then those what were watchin’ all clapped and yelled a little and the_ two fellows, which were fightin’ and pokin’ at each other, took off the strainers and shook hands. Which showed they weren’t mad at all. What good a sport like that is in this country I don’t know, but maybe some day one of these birds will go abroad and get in a scrap and knowin’ how to do that pokin’ act he’s not liable to get stuck. Pretty soon Wrestling is a kinda manly art, knowin’ how to tie the other fellow up in knots and then untie and stretch him out flat on his back while you sit on his chest.

How do we know? Why, you can see that it’s been completely strung. Still there is some excuse, the job was framed. The thing just appearing at the left is the end of the net. The idea is to see how^ close you can come to the . net without touching it and still land the ball in the other fellow’s court. No, not the kind of court that they had back in the days of chivalry, although it is a well known fact that a tennis court has kept many a lady- in-waiting ! The word “love” in this game, as many a poor freshman has found some -of those sweet co-eds interpret the word, amounts to nothing. “Set” does not have the same meaning as in bridge. A “match” does not have a sulphur tip, although. some of them are very striking. The rules do no allow underhanded service. And you won’t find tin cans in the alleys. It’s a great game! Page Three Hundred Sixty-nine anyway, and even if he lost his baton, he could get a job as a traffic cop if he still had his whistle. But then, the band has got those qualities that bring a crowd up on its feet, especially when they play the “Star Spangled Banner” or the “Alma Mater” ! Atten-shun! Ah, then is when one hears the click of heels all the way down the line and notices each well groomed in­ fantryman come to a position that is erect without stiffness. As for those who are not well groomed, well, they’re just the sort of stuff that makes the infantry the rough and ready unit that it is. Can they drill? Just watch ’em some day. , Every man in the division has his legs wound before he comes to class and he can’t keep still. No, it’s not because they’re wound that they can’t keep It’s because they itch and besides still. they’re wound down, not up. From the looks of some of the “putts” it might seem that the fellows didn’t give a wrap, but they must. Every fellow remembers to keep his blouse buttoned up too, right up under his in class. Outside of class—well, they have some grounds for not adhering strictly to orders. The fellows don’t want to be rough-necks! jaw-bone, that is he does Some of the fellows can handle a rifle, too. Make it do tricks. They know why it’s called the manual of arms, that’s just a foreshortened form of Emmanuel which it would be if the rifle were loaded and the safety off. There’s one thing that worries some of the boys, however, on “port arms” they can grab the small of the stock in their right hand all right, but it’s beyond them how they can possibly grab the balance of the rifle in their left. A good many of the fellows, although they do get their commands twisted, think it out however. Especially they’ll stick BAND Here we have the big noise of the cam­ pus. Join the band and get a Sam Brown and a pair of leather putts. Pretty soft way to get a nifty uniform. Why, just a couple of months ago I was ridin’ to Lansing on the scenic railway that con­ nects the capital city with the college town, and there was a guy all dressed up in a band uniform. Well, pretty soon he gets up and leaves the car and the conductor had the nerve to come up to me and ask if that bird was an army officer. Say, it made me pretty sore when there I was a perfectly good infantryman struggling for a mean existence inside of one of thos6 cut-throat blouses and a pair of red-hot spiral putts. No sir, it isn’t fair to dress those birds up like officers just ’cause they have the ability to blow their own horn. Which isn’t a personal quality to be proud of anyway. But I’ve got one big consola­ tion. The Cap. says in war time you’ve gotta keep quiet or you’ll all get bumped off. So if we ever do have another war we’ll all have the laugh on the band. (But just on the side, if you have got anything against the band, please don’t pray for war because an isn’t any snap!) infantryman’s job Still, putting aside all personal griev­ ances, the band is a nice thing to have around. It is easier to keep in step with a drum, no matter how base it is, , than to listen to some bird count “1-2-3-4” all the Sometimes I wonder if they can time. count any further than that. The band knows how to drill, too. They look mighty nice when they’se making letters on the gridiron, not varsity letters of course, they haven’t got the fighting qualities for that. Fact is, if they ever did get in battle they’d find all those instruments would be an awful hindrance, especially in retreat. The drum major could probably get away all right, he has to pull his knees up as if he were having track practice all the time Page Three Hundred Seventy when they see the way the co-eds look at the cade officers in their shiny boots and sambrowns. But when all is said and done, if you j-eally want to see these infantry boys exe­ cute a command properly and quickly and all together, just give ’em the one com- mand^'Dismissed”! CAVALRY There is one thing about the Cavalry that is snappy and that’s the ill-tempered horse. In spite of the fact that you have to- keep your leggin’s clean when you’re in the cavalry and if you happen to get out of step when you’re on the march every­ body for miles around can see it. There are some fellows who seem to get a big kick out of it. Especially those who don’t approach their mounts properly. You’ve simply got to be tactful about everything just the same as when you try to bum tobacco from the Colonel. The unit has got some standards however, that is one for every company! During the spring term all the boys re­ ceive mounted drill instructions. During one of these instruction periods a dumb frosh seemed to be having a hard time with his horse. “Frosh,” yelled Captain Larson, “what makes that mount so un­ “He’s hungry, sir,”i answered the ruly?” freshman. that?” asked the captain. “Because he hasn’t a bit in his mouth, sir/’ responded the fresh­ man as he dove over the head of his horse into the nearest puddle. “How do you know Well, we’ve used up enough type on the cavalry even though the cavalrymen are a type*all their own. As a farewell word we might say concerning the cavalry that some of the men show very little horSe- sense, but the horses do know their oats! ARTILLERY Rather loud-mouthed Here we find some of the big guns of the campus. affairs, however, and not at all pleasant to listen to. Of course you have to be prepared for all emergencies and sometimes it even does become necessary in the best organiz- tions to fire one of the big-guns and that s what the artillery is for. They meet in the garage by ther old Chem. building. You know they always have a cadet officer hanging around outside to keep up the appearance of the place and speak to the co-eds on their way to gym. We suppose that’s why they have so many upper­ classmen in the artillery. We re not sure what they keep in that underground head­ quarters of theirs, but from just casual glances of the interior it seems to be just a lot of truck ! The artillery is pretty nice looking, how­ ever, with skunks and their bright red guidons, but they don’t have any distin­ guishing characteristic such as the white the Infantry the Cavalry or leggin’s of In battle thev’re the boys who calmly sit lines and do the sort of thing behind the that makes life exciting for the infantry­ men and necessitates the learning and prac­ tice of extended-order drill.

The boys, as you must know, are in return just crazy about flowers, and there are hundreds of different kinds of flowers just growing wild for them. From their careful study of wild life these boys can tell you the most interesting things! They know that Skunk Cabbage is the first sign of spring, how Susans got black eyes, why daisies won’t tell, why it is you can’t tame a tiger-lily, that Jack-in-the-pulpits don’t preach sermons, that pitcher-plants are wild because they eat raw meat, that cat-tails don’t fight with the dog-wood,_ and what sort of plumbing system there is in a water lily and host of other things that make Mother Nature more of a mother to you !

Been on the campus for about four years and every so often make their existence PI KAPPA DELTA Pi Kappa Delta is the name of the Na­ tional Honorary Forensic Fraternity. For the benefit of the freshmen, and no doubt for many of the sophomores, it might be fitting to state that forensic pertains to public disputation, and disputation comes from dispute, which means to argue about or quarrel. We must say that this fra­ ternity must haye an awfully big enroll­ ment. The façt is, if you took the ‘‘public” out of the définition of forensic we could probably call all the fraternities forensic. But in,s6 far as the general run of “frats” are modest enough to keep their little dis­ putes themselves and not broadcast them publicly, they are not eligible to be called such. The fact is that it is. only the champion argufiers who are admitted into this illustrious group. Even so, we don’t see what they have to be proud of going around and disagreeing with the other fellow. Still there is an art in being long winded and somewhat sensible at the same time. to The college won This is the national dramatic club and you remember the little all college drama they stirred up when they tried to bring “Tarnish” on to our fair campus. Of course; you remember. Why the State News used it for a headliner on the front though. They page. knew that “The Youngest” on the campus might not see it just the right way, espe­ cially if they sat in the cheap seats, so they fought it to the end. They knew if some of the innocent farmer boys and girls on the campus should see a nasty play like that they’d cease to be “Hell bent for Heaven” and would tend toward a hotter life. But that’s all over now, the little co-eds are safe from harm, everything is rosy, and “The Goose Hangs High”! ¡1= John KellySffil’m a big gun around here.” E. Caruso—“Is that why they’re talking of cannon you?” jfc sfc Another interesting thing about this word forensic is that it comes from the Latin derivation meaning market-place. We wonder if that has come to pass due to the fact that in the middle nineteenth cen­ tury before boys and girls had the ad­ vantages of attending institutions of higher education and learning the art of self- control in the presence of boring speak­ ers, that at the end of certain long drawn out debates the stage or platform was so litered with fruits and vegetables that it resembled a market-place, and hence the name came to be applied to this gentle and somewhat monotonous art. But still, all credit to them, ’tis not everyone can stand upon his feet and speak forth arguments all set about with lovely - language. No, not on h^ feet, but on hers. Ah! that’s a different matter, and because we are not to dabble in forensic art, we’ll let our re­ marks remain unsaid and thus prevent all possibility of argument.

Perhaps that’s the reason these two boys look so happy, they’re going back to col- litch. These engineers in their moment of joy say it only goes to prove that you can get most anywhere if you keep on the right track. We might add that you have to look out for the fellows who are asleep at the switch. There are other kinds of engineers, too. Electrical engineers who play around with high voltages in a manner that’s positively shocking. engineers who dream of massive bridges, and Woolworth towers; and because they do dream so much, especially in classes, they end up in a Woolworth “5 and 10” selling ribbon.

You know sort of unpleasant work. You’ve seen some of the big charts they make showing the interior decoration of frogs and katydids.

We did learn this one day, however, when the girls left the shades up so we got a little inside dope. There are beds in the garage!

The one AeTheon that we all know is Don Fleser, pronounced “Fleecer”, whom you’ll find listed as baseball captain in the sporting goods department. He made such a hit nearly every time he strutted up to the plate that the boys just had to make him captain. Somebody has to be captain any­ way. Fleser’s a fielder and he goes after flies in a. way that makes the daisies open their big yellow eyes in amazement. In Beck the AeTheons probably claim the big­ gest- man on the' campus, in altitude at least. Perhaps there are other AeTheons who deserve a place in the “humor section”, but if we’ve overlooked them they’ll just have to overlook it too! Here are the Delphics, the campus Beau Brummells, the next door neighbors of the Alpha Chis who do not pull their shades down. (Note: This is Delphic fight talk for prospective pledges!)

Once in awhile, they step down from their point of vantage and give the common people a thrill. Pat Grimes, Les Fouts and Vern Dick­ erson are their claims to athletic fame and they are good. The Tics vie with the Delphics for the social honors of the cam­ pus, and are about four cases ahead at this writing. The Lambda Cheese and the Dirty Sigs are neighbors. That is, they neigh at each other through the wee small hours. They vie for supremacy in drinking, gambling, caking, and athletic prowess. They rate about even in the first three and in the last they are still about even. The Dirty Sigs have both Marty Rummell and Paul Smith, football captains, while the Lambda Cheese have Kenny Drew and Jimmy McCosh. “Every one has a peculiarity,” said a cer­ tain individual the other day. “Oh, I don’t know !” replied Ted Olden­ burg. “Pll bet you do.
