EDWARD H. RYDER who as first Dean of Liberal Arts at Michigan State College was in a large measure responsible for the rapid growth of this division, we respectfully dedicate the 1935 \A/olverine COLLEGE annual can have but one purpose— to portray accurately and attractively the most representative events and impressions emanat­ it is ing from the student body for which published. An annual is limited in its scope to one year’s time and to a single volume of printed material. Although these spacial and temporal bounds are indeed absolute, an in­ finite amount of ingenuity may be utilized in the preparation of an attractive summary of collegiate activities. Yearbook content should not be modified by the individual points of view of a few persons, because in order to be effective the views of many must be incor­ porated in its production. If this volume expresses to some degree the true spirit of Michigan State College, the ef­ forts of the 1935 Wolverine staff will have been amply rewarded.

WILKINS, East Lansing, Treasurer Page twelve Looking upon it in retrospect, the col­ lege year 1934-35 has been a notable and in many respects. Notable, successful one first, because the College has progressed in educational achievement, and because it has successfully and efficiently continued its im­ portant functions in spite of greatly reduced income. Again, because of the truly friend­ ly and cooperative spirit which has prevailed on the campus, both in the faculty and in the student body. The year has seen a fall term enroll­ ment of three thousand three hundred and twenty-three students, the largest in the his­ tory of the College, and has seen these stu­ dents struggle successfully against those ad­ verse conditions which still exist, so that withdrawals have not exceeded the average. The student body in general has achieved and improved scholastic standards maintained and has shown a fixity of purpose which leaves little room for anxiety as to the tran­ sition period ahead. Major disciplinary cases have been practically unknown. Social ac­ tivities, placed on a saner economic basis, have been enjoyed by a greater number than in particular, the ever before. year has been one of notable success. In athletics, Michigan State College is truly grateful for all of these benefits and appreciative of the kindly attitude of its friends and sup­ porters throughout the state. The added de­ mands placed upon the College by the people of Michigan and the ever-increasing number of young men and women who are coming here seem to indicate that the institution has something is worthwhile— may they never be disappointed! them that for ROBERT SIDEY SHAW President of Michigan State College ADMINIS TRATIVE OFFICERS JOHN A.

STATE NEWS ISSUES EXTRA FOLLOWING J-HOP The State News presented an entirely new idea in the printing and distribution of a tabloid size J-Hop extra Saturday morning following the prom at the Masonic Temple Friday evening. front page, along with shots of Fred Ziegel, junior president, and the prom queen, Betty Lentz, who led the Hop. Katherine Campbell, junior vice president, and her escort, Charles Palmer, were also included on the front page. Although such a paper is published at a few other institutions, this is the first time that the edition has ever been attempted at Michigan State, and the novelty proved very popular with the dance-goers attending the party. It was originally planned to distribute the paper around 2 o’clock, but due to some trouble in the engraving, the edition did not go on sale until 2:45, the dance ending at 3. Production on the paper was speeded up to a high degree in order to make the edition possible, since several pictures taken at 10:30 Friday evening, at the beginning of the Hop, were included in the sheet. Pictures appear­ ing in the paper, all of which were taken at the beginning of the Hop, included all com­ mittee chairmen and their partners on the Page fifty-four three pages of On the remaining the sheet were the pictures of Tom Ottey, senior president, and Betty Madan; Evelyn Pickett, junior secretary, and Richard Pendell; Robert Armstrong, student council president, and Winifred Lee; Charles Kelley, student council vice president, and Mary Thorpe; and a group picture including Maryon Osterhouse, Virginia Grant, Millicent Thompson, Jean Kreuter, Kay Melching, Wesley Hurd, Harry Wismer, Donald Montgomery, Frank Gaines, and David Cleary. Written material consisted of stories on the band, fraternity guests, coming attrac­ tions for socialities, impressions of the Hop, and thumbnail sketches of the men in the pictures. —Michigan State News.

POTS MEAN SCHOOL SPIRIT IN OPINIONS OF STUDENTS The Inquiring Reporter, wondering how the freshmen would take to rigid enforce­ ment of pot-wearing, asked various students the following question: What do you think will be the outcome of the present drive for greater school spirit among the freshmen?” He received these answers: Harry M. Wismer, ’37: My opinion is that the old traditions will be restored and that it will result in a finer institution backed up by a greater football team. Sam Ketchman, ’37: I believe that if the freshmen revive the school spirit it will help present a peppier body at all of our student functions. Wallace Clark, ’36: This drive should in­ crease school spirit not only among the frosh, but in the entire student body. Fred Middleton, ’38: In my opinion the school spirit which once prevailed at State will be renewed, the Spartan athletic teams will benefit greatly by this new spirit, and I am certain that the freshmen are going to give TOO per cent cooperation in this move. Angelica Rodney, ’35: If carried out in the proper manner it should create a greater school spirit in the entire school. Page seventy-two Jack X^arner, ’36: This drive should put a lot of spirit into the entire student body. For the first time in years we might have a little support and backing for the sports. N. H. VanDyke, ’36: This drive should result in more school spirit if there is such a thing and if it is carried through in the proper manner. Nonie Smith, ’37: This action, by unit­ ing the frosh, will make for stronger upper- classes in the future. Bill Betts, ’35: I am sure that this drive will snap the frosh out of the attitude that they’re downtrodden and abused. Bill Stephenson, ’36: The outcome should be a still more democratic spirit on a campus already noted for that quality. ’36: I believe Larry Hutchinson, the present drive for greater school spirit among the freshmen will result in greater coopera­ tion not only in regard to the freshman class, but also will lend greater significance to the meaning of the word “spirit” among the stu­ dent body as a whole. William Macauley, ’35: There won’t be any outcome. —Michigan State News. AGRICULTURE In the Division of Agriculture there are lines of study: agriculture and two general forestry. Modern training in agriculture is based upon an understanding of the sciences and knowledge of effective farm practices and marketing. The forestry department gives preparation for the various fields of forestry such as forest management for wood and game production, forest economics, forest utiliza­ tion, forest influences, and municipal forestry. Through agricultural engineer'ng, barns and outbuildings are being designed to more definitely serve their purpose, waste space is being eliminated, economical construction de­ tails are being studied, and the relation of one building to another receives careful consider­ ation. Farm arrangement eliminates small ir­ regularly shaped fields and establishes a cen­ tral business point from which all activities proceed with minimum time and effort. Waste land is being reclaimed through drainage and Page seventy-four irrigation. In all these movements, so essential to a prosperous and perma­ nent agriculture, the trained agricul­ tural engineer has his being and serves the purpose of his chosen profession. Of outstanding significance have been the accomplishments of the Farm Crops Department in the breeding and development of better crop vareties. The Robust bean, an early achieve­ ment, the most productive and most widely grown variety in Michigan, is credited with having saved the bean In process of industry in New York. development are beans of improved market quality, oats which do not have smut, beets of improved sugar con­ tent, corns which are not severely at­ tacked by the European corn borer, and improved strains of barley, wheat, alfalfa, and other important Michigan crops. Approximately thousand visitors from nearly every state in the forty soils through the use of alfalfa and sweet clover with the result that the yield of crops on is now much farm higher than previously. this The sugar bush, a project of the Forestry Department, is operated to demonstrate the best and cheapest methods of maple syrup production. A multiple bucket experiment is being conducted to find how many buckets are needed on different sized trees for the best production. Also, work has been done to find the best type of spout to use in tapping. Michigan Sate sugar is listed both by Good Housekeeping and Consumers’ Research as being of excellent quality. Michigan State College has the largest forest school nursery in the United States. It in cooperation with the federal is operated government — the only forest nursery so operated. Union visit the Beal Botanical Gardens every year. One of the special attractions during the past year was the pelican plant which blossomed for the first time in Michigan, De- cember 6, 1 934. This flower, a native of tropi­ cal South America and the West Indies, was introduced by Mr. H. R. Chapman, super­ intendent of the gardens. In 1928 Mr. W. K. Kellogg presented the college with approximately seven hundred acres of farm land adjacent to the bird sanc­ tuary. Its purpose is tO' demonstrate modern farm methods in farm management and im­ provement. At present the farm has three major activities. The poultry department has developed to about two thousand laying hens, and about six thousand baby chicks are raised each year; a special feature of broilers and high quality a eggs has developed ready market for all products of the poultry section. The dairy herd thirty numbers about purebred Guernsey cows; special grade A milk from this herd is sold in Battle Creek. Field crop develop­ ment has centered around the development of better Page seventy-five * APPLIED SCIENCE Science The Applied course was established for those students who wish the opportunity to gain a thorough training in some fundamental science, together with ade­ quate supplementary training lan­ in supporting sciences, guages, and mathematics. It is the aim of the course to develop in the student a sound fundamental knowledge of the sciences pur­ sued, and also to indicate clearly the applica­ tion of science in industry, agriculture, and the arts. In Biological Chemistry a service has been developed for the testing of vitamin D milk. When the product was first introduc­ ed in the larger cities of the state, the health lacked facilities for such test­ departments Page seventy-six ing, so the samples were sent to the Kedzie laboratories. Now three graduates are en­ gaged in testing milk from Detroit, Grand Rapids, and other cities. The Zoology Department of the college maintains a rodent colony which is used for instructing students in the fundamentals of the science of Genetics and in the investiga­ tion of the mode of inheritance of new traits which have been discovered in the colony stock. Experi­ ments are likewise being conducted on the pen-rais­ ing of beaver and on the in­ heritance of coat color of squirrels. In connection with the rodent colony, the De­ partment of Zoology main­ tains a small teaching col­ reptiles lection of and mammals. living The Division of Applied Sciences enjoys the super­ vision of the Kellogg Bird Sanctuary of Michigan State located College which twelve miles from Battle Creek. This sanctuary is a gift of Mr. W. K. Kellogg to the college. A naturally lake of over productive is In addition, facilities are provided for graduate work at the sanctuary during the summer. The area is particularly adapted for study and research in wild animal conservation, a line of work that will no doubt require an increasing number of adequately trained persons in the future. Michigan serves as an excellent natural laboratory for field work and study in geology and its allied subject, geography. Geological field trips and surveys extend over both the peninsulas, and field work is stressed in all courses. The department of geology has been selected as the depository for Michigan minerals, rocks, and ores which have been the State Geological Survey. collected by twenty acres, a swale one-third of a mile in extent, several oak groves, and nearly fifty acres of over-grazed farm lands constituted this area when Mr. Kellogg bought it nearly nine years ago. Each year adds to the value of the sanctuary for wild birds and to its at­ tractiveness to people who come by the hun­ dreds to enjoy this unique project. During the hunting season it is not unusual to have over three thousand wild ducks of as many as six­ teen kinds enjoying the peace of Winter- green Lake, for this is essentially a waterfowl sanctuary. Often three hund­ red or more wild Canada geese join the local flock, and groups of wild swans have sailed ma­ jestically for rests during their fall flights. Wild birds of over two hundred species have been recorded at the sanctuary. in Because of the splendid facilities for studying Nature at close range, the college is offering courses in Biology at the Farm and Sanctuary dur­ ing the summer. One of these courses deals with animals and plants native to Michigan; an­ other, woody vegetation; a third, insects; a fourth, birds. Page seventy-seven ENGINEERING A knowledge of the fundamental prin­ cipals of the sciences which are the basis of engineering practice, a training of the senses in accurate habits of observation, of proved methods of drafting and computing and with the use and limitations of instruments, op­ portunity for experimental work on engineer­ ing problems, the art of correct expression in speech and in writing, and a true concept of the duties and privileges of the engineer as a citizen and as a member of his profession, are among those things which the courses of study here offered are designed to provide. The degree of Bachelor of Science is con­ ferred on those who complete the course re­ quirements of the division. Graduates who “make good” may under certain conditions, apply for and receive professional degrees: Ch.E., C.E., E.E., M.E., or Met. E. Page seventy-eight is gradually The educational program of the Depart­ ment of Electrical Engineering can be divided into three parts, viz., giving information, de­ veloping skill, and creating an outlook upon life. The lecture courses are devoted mainly to imparting information and to applying it to Beginning engineering conditions. with the spring term of the sopho­ more year the courses follow a pro­ gressive seauence adapted to the The element of growing student. intro­ interpretation duced so that by the last term of the senior year the student has been largely freed from the rigidity ne- ce^sarv in his earlier work. This is especially noticeable in the power laboratory course where the senior electrical engineer chooses his ex­ periments with great freedom, se­ lects his instruments and performs his work largely upon his own re­ sponsibility. The laboratory courses, quite elementary at first, progress to experimental work of consider­ able requiring exact in knowledge and great caution manipulation. A little “poke”, now and then, emphasizes the fact that complexity electricity respects only those persons who are careful. Some young men come to coliege with considerable experience as radio amateurs. If these men are licensed operators they may continue their work under the supervision of the department providing they maintain a satisfactory scholastic record. The department operates a transmitting station in the amateur range under the call letters W8SH. The sta­ tion is located in Olds Hall. A radio phone has been under the course of construction, but the work is necessarily slow as spare time, only, can be used. On the same floor with the radio station The Michigan Engineering Experiment Station is one of thirty-eight such stations located at Land Grant Colleges in the United States, the first of which was estalished at in 1903. The station at Illinois University Michigan State College was established by a resolution of the State Board of Agriculture in 1924 and since that time has published sixty bulletins. The full time staff consists of three men although nine members of the teaching staff devote part of their time to research work. The three fields in which the station has been most active are those of rural highways, sanitary engineering, and metal­ lurgy, the latter in both the departments of Chemical and Mechanical Engineering. are located the laboratories for courses in communica­ and tion, measurements, electronics. The latter course is relatively new and is designed to fit the needs of a very rapidly developing finds industry. One now electron tubes in many elec­ trical devices other than radio receiving sets. Recti­ fiers, regulators, theatre dimmers, electric welders, numberless types of control equipment are now using electron tubes of one kind or another. The photo cell as now used in moving picture theatres, telephoto, elevator control, and the newest develop­ ment of electrical science, television, is given due con­ sideration in this course. voltage and Page seventy-nine HOME ECONOMICS Training the student to meet the prob­ lems of every day living is one of the main ob­ jectives of the Home Economics Division. For this reason, each girl takes a general course of subjects including courses in food require­ ments, meal planning, food preparation and service; courses in the selection of clothing and clothing construction to give a basis for judging the workmanship and suitability of ready-to-wear garments; and problems in color and design applied to clothing and the selec­ tion of furnishings for the home. Laboratory work in the Nursery School gives opportunity for observing and studying young children. During the senior year each student lives in a Home Management House for a period of six weeks. Here she is given an understanding of the problems of managing personal relations, time, and money in the home of today. course in all fields of Home Economics and an opportunity to elect in other divisions more subjects than would be possible in a technical series. Though this group does not prepare for any vocation, it provides broad cultural edu­ cation, and, with proper selection of electives, may give training for writing, visiting house­ keeping, and for certain commercial positions. the Within last year the Division of Home Economics has been divided into de­ partments, most of which offer majors. A general major draws all from departments to give the student a somewhat less technical in the in High Each department offers problems courses which provide opportunity for individual work. Practical experience is afforded in managing the dormitories on the the food service East campus, School Lansing cafeteria, and tea room conducted entirely the students; while by courses with retailing laboratory work in Lans­ ing stores give the cloth­ ing and related arts ma­ jors a better understand­ ing of the problems of merchandising. in a The division cooper­ ates with other depart­ ments on the campus by offering required work for the Hotel Training majors Page eighty ECONOMICS and for the Physical Education students. In addition, elective courses in textiles, clothing food preparation, nutrition, and selection, child care are open to students in all divisions. Through affiliation with the Edward W. Spar­ row Hospital of Lansing, a five year course in Home Economics and nursing is given. This work leads to a Bachelor of Science degree and the certificate of Registered Nurse. Each year twelve seniors are selected to attend the Merrill Palmer School in Detroit. Home Economics classes are not limited to the campus, but are conducted through­ out the state by the extension staff of special­ ists and home demonstration agents. Last year 22,547 women were enrolled in the classes, and many more were reached indirectly. The last week in July, Farm Women’s Week is held, and the attendance in 1934 was 631. A program of in home economics, lectures agriculture, and current topics is given. is Graduate work given in foods, nutrition, home management, and institution administra­ tion, leading to a masters degree, and, in nutrition, to the Ph.D. In the Home Economics section of the Michigan Agricultural Ex­ periment Station, at the research time, present problems include studies of the food requirements of the pre-school child, the relation of Vitamin A to the utilization of foods, the mineral and vitamin content of certain canned food products, and the changes in the standards living brought about of by recent economic con­ ditions. Page eighty-one LIBERAL ARTS The purpose of the Liberal Arts Division is two fold in character: first—to provide for students in the scientific and technical divisions of the college instruction in the fun­ damental subjects, i. e., English, Mathematics, History, Political Science, Economics, Modern Languages, Music, Art, Journalism, Psycho­ logy, Sociology, Education, and Philosophy. In serving this first purpose, the Liberal Arts Division presents instruction in English Composition to all freshmen; Mathematics to most freshmen, and Economics, Art, Music, Sociology, Education, and History to many students from all the divisions of the college. Mathematics furnishes the foundation for the technical work in science and engineering; Art is necessary to Landscape Architecture and to Home Economics; Economics and Soci­ ology are required for a proper understanding of Agriculture and Home Economics; Educa­ tion and Psychology are necessary for those who will go out to teach the technical sub­ jects. That the Liberal Arts subjects are appre­ ciated by the students in the technical sub­ Page eighty-two jects may be recognized from the fact that in one department as high as 78% of the en­ rollments are non-Liberal Arts students, and in the division as a whole 41 % of the enroll­ ments are from other divisions. The second purpose of the Liberal Arts Division is to permit students to select from subjects offered within the division a curri­ culum that would provide a broad general education with sufficient specialization in some one line of thought to prepare for earn­ ing a livelihood while enjoying “a more abun­ dant life”. To this Foreign reauires work latter end there have been arranged several separate curricula. The majority of students follow what is called the Liberal Arts curriculum which in English, Lang­ uage, and Laboratory Sci­ ence in addition to spec­ ialization in the work of some one of the depart­ included within ments the division.

It endeavors further to develop in him an inquiring mind without which man is little more than a slave. It develops men after no pattern; if sets up no unchanging standard. It strives heither to make liberals or conser­ vatives, Democrats or Republicans, Methodists or Presbyterians. But it does strive to present pure knowledge, and to turn out thinking beings—men and women who stand on their own feet and pass judgment not dictated by some formula or prejudice, but distilled out of clear thinking and pure reasoning. lum which provides the same foundation with a grouping of Mathematics, Political Science and Economics courses to provide a specializ­ ation particularly appropriate for the one who will follow a business career. The work of the music department has been arranged in cooperation with the State Department of Public Instruction into a Public School Music Curriculum. A considerable number of students are preparing for the work of Public School Music Supervisors. The latest addition to the curricula of the Liberal Arts Division came about at the in­ the Michigan Hotel Associa­ vitation of their request the col­ tion. Acting upon lege established a curriculum to prepare students for the business of hotel keeping. Approxima t e I y fifty young men and young women are preparing to take up this line of work when they graduate. The cooperation of many ho­ tels throughout the cen­ tral states in serving as in fur­ laboratories and nishing summer employ­ ment to these Hotel Ad­ ministration students as­ sures the success of this Michigan undertaking. State College and Cornell the only University are VETERINARY SCIENCE in included In this division two courses are offered: the Veterinary course leading to the degree of Doctor of Veterinary Medicine, and the Med­ ical Biology course leading to the degree of Bachelor of Science in Medical Biology. The this division are departments Anatomy, Animal Pathology, Bateriology and Hygiene, and Surgery, Medicine and Clinic. Departments both within and without the Veterinary course are well equipped to give full instruction both in the phases of science that deal directly with the making of a veter­ inarian and in the collateral subjects which have a more or less close connection with the work of the veterinarian. In addition to con­ sidering all the diseases of the domesticated Page eighty-four animals, an effort is made to familiarize the students with the diseases of pet stock and the fur-bearing animals in captivity as well as the wild animals commonly found in zoo­ logical gardens. Special attention is given to the problems arising from the modern industry of fox farms and other establish­ ments devoted to the care In of fur-bearing animals. addition to the large field of private practice, veterin­ arians are called upon to do investigational and teaching work in biological and phar­ maceutical laboratories and to act as managers of stock farms. Graduates of this course are eligible to take the competitive examina­ tions for inspection work in the Bureau of Animal In­ dustry, U. S. Department of for the U. S. Agriculture, Army Veterinary Service and for State and municipal veterinary control work. The department of Anatomy has existed prac­ tically since the establish- ment of the Veterinary division in the latter part of 1910. In January of 1911, it was taken over by Dr. Chamberlain, who continues to head it. He is a graduate of the University of Vermont and Cornell University, and is as­ sisted by Dr. Johnson, also a graduate of the Cornell Veterinary School. The policy of the bacteriology depart­ ment has been to cover the field of bacter­ iology with emphasis on animal diseases as well as those concerning man. Extensive research has been carried on during the entire exist­ ence of this department, and inves­ tigations of great importance have been completed here. It has made important contributions in the field of hog cholera research and was the first to make hog cholera serum available to the farmer. Dr. Ward Ciltner has been in this department since 1906, and since 1923 has been the Dean of Veterinary Science and in charge of Medical Biology. He has written two bacteriology text books and in ad­ dition has held many respon­ sible positions such as that of State Veterinarian. Dr. Forest Huddleson, who has helped make Michigan State College famous the world over, has done all of his laboratory. research while attached to this His infection are invaluable to humans as well as to ani­ mals, especially cattle, goats, and swine.

W. S., is the of­ ficial governing body for women on the State campus. Functioning as a unifying power for all women interests, it has come to play an integral part in the regulating and sponsoring of coed activities. The belief that there has been a lack of adequate coed representation in the Council led this year to a revision of the constitution with the result that the organiza- ion is now made to include representatives from six of the more important coed boards and organizations. The Council thus strength­ ened has experienced a year of unparalleled success. The biggest project undertaken by A. W. S. during the year consisted of an orientation program for freshman women. Formerly, this work was treated in the weekly physical edu­ cation lectures, but the limited time which could be devoted to orientation made it ad­ visable for a new system to aid freshman wo­ men in becoming acquainted with their new surroundings. freshmen were divided alphabetically into groups of about twenty each. At the head of every group was a junior, carefully chosen for her qualities of leader­ informal meetings were discussed ship.

The League was organized for these purposes by a small group of campus leaders in 1929, and it has since that time grown steadily until now it has a membership of about two hundred. The League offers practically every type of activity to its members, being divided into six interest groups as follows: social, athletic, social service, research, dramatic, and pub­ licity. The organization has been very active during the past year, each group having di­ rected various phases of the work. The social group, which is the largest subdivision of the League, had as its major work of the year the presentation of the term parties, including the formal dance winter term, and the fac­ ulty tea and style show. The athletic group, in addition to organizing teams for intramural competion, had charge of the social dancing classes held during the winter term with an attendance of about one hundred college men. The League swimming team won first place in the intramural meet. The social service group assisted the East Lansing welfare com­ mission at Thanksgiving and Christmas time. The research group was occupied mainly with the keeping of the membership files, although some research into campus conditions was conducted. The dramatic group presented a one-act play entitled, “Are Women Inferior?’’ and also prepared a skit for the Coed Prom. The publicity group, as its name suggests, handled all advertising for the affairs spon­ sored by the League. In addition to these group conducted activities, the League as a whole has partici­ pated in many other campus affairs, such as the organizing of the coed cheering section, the Alumni Tag Day sale, and the annual water carnival. A twenty-five dollar scholar­ ship is offered to the junior member who best exemplifies the League’s ideals of academic ability and leadership. Page ninety-four Grill, Millar, Champion, Johnson.

With better typewriters, in moving Page ninety-six Charles Palmer Managing Editor lighting, ventilation, and access, the News is now located just across the street from the Campus Press where the actual printing of the paper is carried out. Under the arrangement set up by the constitution of the Board of Publications, the staff of the State News consists of a manag­ ing editor, a business manager, an associate editor, a co-ed editor, and assistants and re­ porters as are needed. During the last few years, positions of sports editor, day and night editor, feature editor, and associated co-ed editor have been added. Most of the work on the paper takes place Monday and Thursday evenings from seven o’clock to anywhere between mid-night and three. Although the reporters are busy gathering their news before that time, it is then that the real work such as headline writ­ ing, ad layouts, copy-reading, proof-reading, and late news writing is accomplished. On the following day, the final making up is done by the editor and business manager, and the Michigan State News is in the hands of the students that afternoon or early evening. K.

A long slow building-up pro­ cess is begun which culminates in the distri­ bution of the book and the final report of its financial standing. At the outset, plans must be made for the theme or art motif of the next edition, together with arrangements for taking snaps of those spring activities which are so necessary to the success of an annual. A good share of the following summer may be profitably spent in laying out as many pages as it may be possible to do at such an early period and in thinking of ideas for securing the essential financial backing. Page ninety-eight Richard O’Dell Managing Editor With the opening of school comes the in­ tensive campaign for the sale of subscriptions and the sending out of some three thousand individual picture appointments. The glossies of about one hundred groups must be secured and the members of each identified. Adver­ tising is solicited and contracts sent every organization interested in taking one or two pages in the book. The art department devel­ ops any practical ideas the editor has; if he hasn’t any (which is generally the case), the art staff designs and executes its own.

Page one hundred five LITERARY ENDEAVOR ment protested v;olently in the Student Pulse column of this paper, unmindful of the fact that their own department awards prizes worth a great deal more than anything ever donated for literature; many thought it was undue partiality to English majors, although many of the past winners have been from courses far removed from this subject; many pooh-poohed the value of having contests at all, ignoring the fact that former winners have since succeeded as professional writers. This winter, at an all-college convoca­ tion devoted to the awarding of prizes for meritorious work, the literary contests were not mentioned, although they were on the program. The same slight occurred last year at a similar convocation. Officials in charge may have some valid reason for their neglect; we doubt it.

As usual the winners will have to show a high degree of proficiency in their medium, the ability to think clearly, and a familiarity with perspiration as well as in­ spiration. When they have finished with their efforts, they can sit back proudly, secure in their knowledge that they have gained enough cold cash to buy a few articles of wearing ap­ parel and as much recognition on campus as the first man to wear a pork-pie hat. They will probably decide they will acquire their prestige more easily by attend­ ing all tea dances, or by staying awake in all classes. that henceforth Last year Prof. W. W.

In 1885 it became a military band, and as the need was eventually felt for a faculty director, Prof. A. J. Clark assumed that position in 1907. The present director, Leonard Falcone, took charge in 1927. Throughout the year the band gives a wide variety of performances. Beginning with marches in the fall, it gradually develops into a high calibre concert organization in the spring. During the fall term the band plays at all the home football games and two or three games away from home.

The climax of the year comes during the spring term when the band presents a series of four concerts in the Forest of Arden. Sym­ phonic works, overtures, selections, and con­ certos are chosen from a very extensive music library comprising over two thousand com­ positions, and performances are given before large audiences at this During the spring season the band is often invited to lead the annual Blossom Festival Parade at Benton Harbor. While undertaking these activities, the band regularly appears at the spring mili­ tary parades and a few of the baseball games. As a final project it plays at the Commence­ ment exercises. time.

Theodore Roosevelt and Herbert Hoover have been entertained by its music, Roosevelt an interested listener when he visited Lansing in 1907 and Hoover receiving the band in Wash­ ington when it made a trip east a few years ago. The band’s success has been due largely to the efforts of its director, Leonard Falcone. Falcone received his early training in music under the famous Maestro Donatelli in Italy. Although he has a thorough knowledge of all musical instruments, he has gained a repu­ tation as one of the most outstanding euphon­ ium artists in the country. Since he has come to the United States, Falcone has been fea­ tured as soloist for various famous organiza­ tions. At one of the spring concerts given by the band each year, he plays a baritone solo with band accompaniment. Besides his work as conductor, he instructs college classes in music and is often chosen to judge contests for various music organizations.

This not only gave the debaters a chance to speak before larger crowds, but also served to advertise the College in a cul­ tural way. This year, for the first time, several debates were broadcast. After the first of these had met with a favorable response, a debate on some timely topic discussion was sent out every Monday afternoon. The recent agitation over the makers of war materials provided the question: Resolved, that the manufacture of arms and munitions in the United States should be made a mon­ In the an­ opoly of the Federal government. nual state tournament State debaters took first place winning both league debates and losing only two of the tournament contests. Out of state teams met during the season included Notre Dame, Marquette, and Ontario Teachers College. The year was climaxed by an eastern trip made during spring vacation which includ­ ed meets with Syracuse, Boston U., Massachu­ setts Tech, Rhode Island State, Dartmouth, Allegheny, Fordham, N. Y. U., Columbia, and Western Reserve. Harlan Clark Extempore Speaking When the pre-season call for debate can­ didates went out, nearly thirty students re­ sponded. The first tryout narrowed the field down to the squad of eleven who finished the season. This elimination made possible more competition and a more intensive coaching for the remaining number and was in a large mea­ sure responsible for the unusually successful sesason enjoyed by the team. The boys set to work in earnest at the beginning of the winter term. The meetings were held on schedule, and a regular full-'' length debate between two of the teams feaji tured each session. This was followed by a period of criticism. A friendly but intense rivalry soon developed between the various teams, and some stormy meetings were held before the season ended.

Each year in the fall term a forensic meeting is held at which time those women who mani­ fest an interest in debating are encouraged to try out for the squad. The final selection us­ ually consists of from eight to twelve mem­ bers. These women then represent the Col­ in the official varsity debates for the lege winter term. The regular debate schedule is divided into two parts. The first part consists of the Michigan Intercollegiate contests with other colleges of the state. Toward the end of the season these various colleges meet in a tourna­ ment, and the winner of the most official league debates is declared the championship team. This year the tournament held at Albion College was entered by ten colleges. Michigan Page one hundred sixteen Frances Scullin Oratory State won a clear claim to the title by win­ ning all four official league debates. In addi­ tion this squad had won a total of twelve de­ cisions out of fourteen debates. The second part of the year’s schedule is a trip. On even years the leading members of the squad parti­ cipate tournament of Pi Kappa Delta. Last year this was held at Lex­ ington, Kentucky. Each odd year the team takes a trip and meets representative squads from other states. the national in Michigan State College is host each year to the state colleges for the extemporaneous speaking contest. Miss Ruth Virginia Martin won the local contest and out of nine colleges competing placed third in the state finals this year. It is not the practice of Michigan State to give letters for varsity debating. Rather, it is felt that an award of a gold gavel is much more appropriate for this work. The most outstanding of the varisty debaters are hon­ ored by election to Pi Kappa Delta, national honorary forensic fraternity. None of the members of the 1935 team graduate, so that the prospects for the coming season are ex­ tremely bright. The women’s debate squad is coached by Mr. O. J.

Upon the formation of the Liberal Arts division in 1924 the scope of the society was increased to include students of that curriculum as well. Tau Sigma aims to encourage high scholarship on the campus and yearly awards a prize to each of the sophomore students who in their freshman year made the best scholastic record in the Ap­ plied Science and Liberal Arts courses respectively. Tau Sigma also publishes a pamphlet giving study aids. Page one hundred fifty-nine VARSITY CLUB Charles A. Bachman Turner H. Broughton Leon D. Burhans Miles W. Casteel Charles W. Chapman Joseph F.

The object of the R. O. T. C. besides qualifying students for positions of leader­ ship in time of national emergency, is to af­ ford practical training in organization, leader­ ship, and discipline, which will be of value to graduated students in an industrial or professional career. Upon satisfactory completion of the Ad­ vanced Course graduates are offered commis­ sions as 2nd Lieutenants the Officers’ Reserve Corps of the United State Army. in Dorsey R.

Each year a man from each of the three bat­ talions is chosen for this honor the colonelcy going to a different battalion in consecutive years, with the other nominees receiving the rank of lieutenant-colonel. Qualities of lead­ ership, general scholastic character, achievement are the basis for the appoint­ ments which are reserved for seniors taking advanced military. and This year, John Randall of Detroit, a sen­ ior in the coast artillery battalion, was ap­ pointed colonel of the unit. Robert Humphrey of Bay City and Edward Kemp of Wenona, Illinois, were chosen lieutenant-colonels of the cavalry and infantry respectively. Robert O. Humphrey Cadet Lieutenant-Colonel Edward W. Kemp Cadet Lieutenant-Colonel Page one hundred sixty-eight Robert E. Weber Cadet Major The Cavalry Unit of the R. 0. T. C. at Michigan State College is the only unit of its kind in the State of Michigan and the only one in the Corps Area except that at the Uni­ versity of Illinois. During this year, 1934-35, it comprises 385 students. For the spring parades the unit is organized into one mount­ ed troop of approximately 60 and three dis­ mounted troops. The instruction, which is both practical and theoretical, is divided into Basic and Ad­ vanced. The Basic course in­ cludes subjects which are com­ mon to all branches, such as Sanitation and First Aid, Map Reading, Drill, Rifle Marks­ manship, Military Discipline, and Musketry. All basic cav­ alry students receive a limited amount of instruction in equi­ tation. The Advanced Course in­ cludes more specialized sub­ jects, such as Military History, Military Law, Care of Animals, Machine Guns, Drill, Tactical Studies, and a rather intense course in Equitation. Members of the Cavalry unit take part in the Annual R. O. T. C. Horse Show and CAVALRY form the polo team which engages in indoor polo matches with teams from other colleges such as the University of Chicago and Culver Military Academy. The Cavalry unit provides the mounted escort for distinguished visitors such as the Corps Area Commander and the Governor. During the summer the members of the First Year of the Advanced course (usually Juniors) ride the horses to Camp Custer and in that camp. They then spend six weeks return the horses to East Lansing. The high morale engendered by the close cooperation of man and horse never fails to cause favorable comment. Page one hundred sixty-nine COAST ARTILLERY The Basic instruction in the coast artil­ lery unit is similar to that given in all units, instruction of a soldier. being the primary The learn freshmen and sophomores also about ammunition for big guns, Fire Control and position finding instruments and their use and identification of aerial and naval targets. the The first year advanced students receive technical instruction in gunnery. One of the greatest needs in our army today is officers trained in anti-aircraft gunnery. The instruc­ tion of the first year advanced students of the coast artillery unit both on the campus and in toward summer training camp is directed Frank W. Bovee Cadet Major making them capable of commanding an anti­ aircraft artillery unit. They also receive in­ struction in subjects which are basic to the branch. Map Reading, Interpretation of Aerial Photographs and Seacoast Gunnery. In sum­ mer training camp the coast artillerymen put into practise their class room theories of the Fire Courses with the rifle, machine gun, pis­ tol, and anti-aircraft gun. The targets for their machine gun and anti-aircraft gun fir­ ing are towed through the air at high alti­ tudes by army planes. The fourth year instruc­ tion gives the prospective re­ serve officer training along more general lines. He attends classes in Military Law, Mili­ tary History, and Battery Ad­ ministration. As a cadet officer he exercises command of a unit in the artillery battalion. is His specialized on Motor Transportation, Ar­ tillery Tactics, Field Engineer­ ing, Orientation, and Artillery Material.

Theoretical instruction in Mili­ tary History, Military Law, Anti-aircraft De­ fenses, Gas Defenses, Tanks, and Combat Principles. In addition to the school instruction, a is six weeks course of practical given to the juniors each summer at Camp Custer. Graduates of the Infantry unit are commissioned as Second Lieutenants in the Infantry Reserve. instruction The Infantry has charge of several extra­ curricular activities such as the Rifle team, formations, Boy Scout drilling the band Gymkhanas, Rifle and matches. Farmers’ Week in The Infantry Unit of the R. 0. T. C. is Infantry instructed by three Regular Army officers and one Regular Army Infantry Non­ commissioned officer. The unit consists of seventy advanced students and approximately four hundred Basic students. It is organized into an Infantry battalion of six companies. The courses of instruction given are briefly as follows: instruction For Freshmen—Practical in Drill, Rifle Marksmanship, and Map Reading. Theoretical instruction in Mili­ tary Customs and Discipline, Sanitation and First Aid, The National Defense Act, and the Organization of the Army. For Sophomores—Practi­ cal in Drill and instruction Company Weapons. Theoretic instruction in Musketry, Scout­ ing and Patrolling, and Combat Principles of the Squad and Section.

YOUNG Director of Athletics In the minor sports the cross country and tennis teams of the college have blazed a trail for all others to follow. In the major sports the football, basket­ ball, and baseball teams, through the careful selection of opponents have gradually worked up well-rounded schedules that give State followers a chance to see the best teams in the country in action. Track especially is in an excellent position. As Athletic Director, Young has scheduled some very attractive meets for the track men, and then as coach he has placed some high class scoring com­ binations in the field to win these meets. Page one hundred seventy-nine At the head of the entire Michigan State College athletic plant sits the stalwart figure of Ralph H. Young, genial Director of Athletics. Young has been head of the State athletic departmet for the past twelve years and head coach of track for nearly that long. When Coach Young took over the State athletic directorship way back in 1923, this college was but a small institution, playing only small Michigan schools. No one out­ side of Michigan had ever heard of the col­ close beside the winding Cedar”. But lege with his now well-known executive ability Young has changed all of that. During his twelve years here he has seen nearly all of the various branches of sport rise to positions of national prominence. A tangible evidence of his work may be seen in the trophy case in the gym, a photo of which appears to the right of this page. In this case appear many of the cups, figures, and emblems won by the various State athletic teams during the past year. Huston, Ernst, Young, Pongrace, Emmons. Fields, Clark, Stewart, Branch.

Rouse Just after 1900, State’s competition with other schools had reached such a point that it was thought necessary to have a gov­ erning board. To handle this situation sev­ eral plans were evolved, but the control of athletics was finally placed in the hands of an Athetic Board of Control. This board was composed of fourteen members, nine from the faculty and five from the student body. On March 1, 1927, the Athletic Board of Control was reorganized into the present Athletic Council. It came about after a one year study by a special committee. The mem­ is now made up of the following: bership The president of the college, the secretary of the M. S. C. Alumni Association, ex-officio, the college, ex-officio, the comptroller of four members of the faculty appointed by the President and confirmed by the State Board of Agriculture, three members of the Alumni from the Alumni Varsity Association—one Club and two undergraduate students—and the Director of Athletics. The primary duty of the Council is to assist the administrative officers of the col­ lege in every way possible to keep physical education on the highest plane of efficiency and sportsmanship, and to stimulate among the alumni, students, and faculty members a greater interest in, and measure of support for, all athletic activities. Page one hundred eighty CHARLES BACHMAN Head Coach that “Somebody said it couldn’t be done, but—” and so forth and so on. Using this line taken from a well known composi­ tion Coach Charles Bachman developed a football team this year that did what had come to be looked upon as almost impossible in these parts; he beat Michigan. Not since 1915 has a Spartan coach been able to develop his handful of material into a combination that could defeat the horde from Ann Arbor. But playing with a group inexperienced material Bachman of just that trick, and gave State the turned most prized last twenty years. football victory of light, the When he came here from Florida, March that just 9, 1933, Coach Bachman Michigan should be remarked looked upon as another ball team; that all of this pointing for Michigan was useless, and just ruined the team for the rest of the season. Whether or not he acted on his own advice is problem­ atical, but the results are certainly satisfac­ tory to any one even remotely connected with Michigan State. the Aside rankings. Expounding from this year, Bachman famous Notre Dame system, developed by the late Knute Rockne, Bachman during the last two years has placed State in the front rank in national collegiate the Michigan grid victory led his boys through a schedule of nine games, eight of them major engagements, and was beaten only once. Besides the win over Michigan the Spartans hammered out victories over Carnegie Tech, Marquette, Manhattan. De­ troit, Kansas, Texas, and Grinnell. In discussing the personal characteristics of any football coach his best judges should be the boys who work under him on the foot­ ball field, and judging from these boys Coach Bachman rates even higher as a man than he does as a football coach. Page one hundred eighty-two Russell Reynolds Captain Trying to put down on paper the ability and exceptional qualifications that make Russ Reynolds, captain of the 1935 State football team, a superb quarterback is nearly as tough an assignment as trying to stop this same Reynolds when he grabs on to an enemy punt and starts going places—it just can t be done. A pile driving, hard fighting, vicious tackling end. That seems to sum up par­ tially a few of the attributes of Ed Klewicki, veteran of three seasons football wars, who so successfully defended the right end posi­ tion for Coach Bachman’s Spartans during last fall’s campaign. Although handicapped by injuries during the season Klewicki was a major part of chosen by team mates and letter winners as the most valuable man on the squad, and as such was presented by Governor Comstock with the Croix de Guerre of American Achievement—a choice which was most heartily endorsed by the coaches. Klewicki, a senior from Hamtramck, has played his last game for Michigan State, and next fall will be bowling them over for the Detroit Lions in the professional league. Putting it mildly, Reynolds, a senior from Flint, whom the other letter winners elected honorary captain at the conclusion of the 1934 grid season, is a first class quarterback. He is a wonderful field general, a human bat­ tering ram on the attack, a superb safety man, and a real fighter. What more can we say? to State Reynolds came from Flint Northern high school, where he was an all- that the in nearly every sport state man school offered. His specialty, however, was football, and that was the sport to which he turned most of his attention here at State. It is safe to say that it will be a number of years before any State team will have a quarter back that will be able to equal Russell “Monk” Reynolds as an all around performer.

In the final period the reserves ran up three touchdowns on a dazed and battered group of Manhattan regulars. In the first period State scored when after an exchange of punts between Warm­ bein and Welsh, Reynolds intercepted a pass from Downy and raced 65 yards for the score. In the second quarter, State’s passing attack was partially stopped so Reynolds started a running attack. Moving in to meet this sort of game, the Manhattan team left themselves wide open, and from then on a varied attack gave State a wide lead at the half.

Buvid passed to Cuff for a touchdown for Marquette in the opening minutes of the game. This was the first time during the season that State was on the short end of the score in the initial minutes of play. Russ Reynolds intercepted a pass from Marquette to start the Spartan’s first scoring drive. McCrary then ran the ball to the Hill- topper’s ten yard stripe, and on the next play Sebo scampered across the line standing up. State failed to convert the extra point; the score remaining 7-6 until the third quar­ ter. In the third quarter Reynolds tossed a 38 yard pass to Klewicki, on the goal line.

This defeat came at the hands of Coach Vic Hanson’s Orangemen. The score was 10-0.

However, the final score does show that the Green and White were in there fighting all the time. Syracuse scored its points in the second and fourth quarters. In the second quarter, Perrault intercepted a pass by Armstrong on State’s 44 yard line, then two Syracuse passes advanced the ball so that Vavra could kick a perfect field goal. In the fourth quarter, as the result' of a 33 yard drive, Dutch Cintner plunged over the line for a touchdown. Dutch Cintner was the star of the after­ noon, although he was pressed hard for first place by his team-mate Vavra. Kurt Warm­ bein was the individual star for the Spartans, although he was unable to play the entire game due to injuries he had received during the Marquette game. Armstrong, who played in his place acquitted himself with honors, however, and Brandstetter, a sophomore full­ back who subbed for Jim McCrary, also played very creditably. Syracuse held the balance of power due to the condition of the field, the lightness of State’s team, the injuries which the latter had suffered earlier in the year, and especially the hard driving power of Cintner and Albanese. The Michigan State Spartans put on a fine exhibition of defensive football to win over the University of Detroit by the score of 7 to 6, giving them the mythical State Cham­ pionship. in place of Both teams scored in the early part of the first quarter. Edwards, who started for State injured Warmbein, the booted the ball to the Detroit 25 yard line. For some reason not yet explained not a De­ troit player made a move to touch the rolling pigskin, and Sid Wagner recovered for State. On the first play after this recovery, Kurt Warmbein, who had been rushed into the game to take advantage of this break, was stopped for no gain. However, a Detroit pen­ alty placed the ball on their own 20 yard line. From there Warmbein ran hard to his right, led by and aided by beautiful Russ Reynolds, scored standing up. Brand- stetter made good on the extra point, which proved to be the winning one. interference A fumbled punt a few plays later put Detroit in State territory, where the Spartan line held the Titans, but after punting out, State was again put on the defensive in their own half of the field, and Weiczorek plunged over for a touchdown from the one yard line on a hole opened by Paul Duker, a star Titan DETROIT tackle. The pass from center was bad, and Nott missed the place kick. State can base their victory on their de­ fensive game, and that alone. Detroit gave up the ball four times inside the State 20 yard line. Nott, Titan ace, tried two field goals, both of which failed, and the Spartans held for downs twice, once on the two yard line and again on the five yard stripe. It was a game which the Spartans were lucky to win. in its the State was a far different team from the one which took first four field games. The Spartans were far off form with their faulty blocking and upon occasion poor thinking. At many times they were com­ pletely out-played, and six times had to kick It was the from behind their own goal line. characteristic of the 1934 team to cash in when opportunities presented themselves that permitted the victory. A feature of the afternoon was the pre­ sentation to Jack Heppinstall, beloved train­ er of all Spartan athletic teams, of a hand­ some leather golf bag. Jack’s boys, members of the various athletic teams, all contributed to the fund to do honor to the veteran train­ er. The gift was presented to him during the half by members of the football team. It was a grand gesture to a grand man Page one hundred ninety-one KANSAS Once again flashing the all-around foot­ ball power which was so evident in the Uni­ versity of Michigan game, the Spartans wad­ ed through a field of mud to defeat the Uni­ versity of Kansas 6-0 in an intersectional bat­ tle at Lawrence, Kansas. The forward passing attack that clicked so smoothly in the first quarter, Kurt Warm- bein to Ed Klewicki, for the touchdown was stopped cold by a mud-covered, slippery foot­ ball in the later stages. Kansas might have done better, too, but it must have been easy the for even a partial Kansan to see that Spartan gridiron machine was of superior mold that day. State’s touchdown came soon after Rey­ nolds had lugged the ball to the center of the field on a return of a punt. Kansas had to kick from its own goal and Reynolds caught the ball on the Kansas 40 yard line and was downed immediately. The first play did the business. Warmbein started right, faded back gradually, and threw a 25 yard pass to Klewicki, who had cut in behind the Kansas defensive halfback. Klewicki made a pretty catch, and with the aid of Dick Col- ina’s blocking, scored easily. to his Kutchins Allman Wilson Sebo Page one hundred ninety-two A hard fighting group of southern boys failed to hold the Spartans from scoring 26 points to their 13 in the first game in which State has invaded the South in many years. The first score for State came in the middle of the second quarter when Klewicki on a triple pass, took the ball down to the three yard from where Brandstetter line, smashed it over for six points. Texas evened third quarter, but this only served to enrage the Spartans. In the beginning of the final quar­ ter, Reynolds received Couser’s punt on his the score the in own thirty, and ran it back 70 yards for six points. In the same quarter, Dick Colina picked the ball of Warmbein’s hand, the old Status of Liberty play, and gave State another six points. This time Edwards kicked the point after touchdown. The Aggies came right back for their last score when Couser passed to Wilkins who was standing all by himself in State’s end zone. Brandstetter scored the final six points in the waning moments of the final quarter. Warmbein Edwards Sleder Agett Page one hundred ninety-three Kobs L.

FRESHMAN FOOTBALL 1934 the Although 1934 Michigan State freshman football team did not have an im­ pressive record, it had many stars who should materially aid next year’s varsity. When the season started, 121 men reported in fresh­ man uniform. It was hard to pick eleven men that could be said to be the best eleven out of this mob, but Coaches John Kobs and Myr- ton (Red) Vandemeer made use of as many as they could. The first game was with the Varsity Re­ serves, which the yearlings lost with two min­ utes to go in the fourth quarter by a score of 7 to 0. The next Saturday they were again beaten by a strong Detroit frosh team 7 to 6. State came back the following week to swamp Western State frosh 27 to 6. The last game of Page one hundred ninety-four the season was played at Detroit, and State lost 8 to 0. There was a wealth of line material this year with two or three men battling for each position. The backfield did not have so many, but there were several promising men who should do the varsity some good next fall. Among the linesmen were Capt. Harry Speel­ man, Jack McKibbin, Don Miller, Walter Lueck, Bob McComb, Frank Caines, Frank Sczcepaniuk, Gerald Behn, Bob Elder, and Phil Balyeat. The backfield men who broke into the lineup the most were: John Pingel, an out­ standing punter, “Chuck” Halbert, Jesse Cor­ ona, Dale Springer, George Goltz, Dick Arnold, L. Cusino. R. Cusino, and Jack Coolidge. BENJAMIN VanALSTYNE Coach in the Recognized as one of foremost coaches the country, Benjamin VanAI- styne, head basketball coach at Michigan State College, has during the past few years, brought the Spartans nearly to the top of the heap in national intercollegiate cage circles. Using a system entirely his own, VanAI- styne has compiled an extraordinary record here at State. Besides being an excellent bas­ ketball coach, Van is recognized as a great leader.

The three men honored this year were Robert Herrick, Mike Rouse, and Arnold Van Faasen. All three of these men are seniors and have played three years of varsity basketball. Herrick and Rouse, teamed together at the guards, formed another strong link in the lengthy chain of star State guard combina­ tions. Reminding one of the work of Haga and Scott, and then later Kircher and Vondette, both wonderful combinations, these boys were by far the best men on the floor in any ball game this winter. In the opinion of Coach Rupp, coach of the famous University of Kentucky basketball team, whom the Spartans defeated here, Her­ rick and Rouse form one of the best guard combinations which he has ever seen. Rupp was much impressed with the work of these two men, and credits them with stopping his hitherto undefeated team in their scoring ef­ forts. The other honorary captain, Am Van Faasen, is no less of a star than Herrick and Rouse. The tallest player on the squad, Van Faasen used his height to excellent advantage. Seldom did he lose the tip-off, and his control of the ball off the back board was a large con­ tributing factor in many of the Spartan vic­ tories. In his three years of varsity competi­ tion Van Faasen ran into some of the best basketball players Listed among his opponents are Ed “Big Moose” Krause, twice All-American center, and Le- Roy Edwards, high scoring Kentucky pivotman, neither of whom were able to completely out­ play him. Big Arn was a much feared oppon­ ent and a great help to the State team. recent years. in VARSITY BASKETBALL 1935 Hailed at the beginning of the season as being only a “fair” ball club, the 1 935 edition of the Spartan basketball team went right out They and made those pessimists look silly. completed the entire schedule with a great record of 13 wins and 4 losses, included in that record being a list of nine consecutive victories before meeting defeat. responsible No one man seemed for these victories, with Arnie Van Faasen, Mike Rouse, Bob Herrick, Ron Carlock, and Dan Reck playing and guarding consistently well throughout the season. Following this sea­ son, the Spartans again repeated in holding off the election of captain until after the sea­ son was over. Bob Herrick, Mike Rouse, and Arnold Van Faasen were the men chosen to be awarded the honor. The Spartans opened the season with Central State Teachers college and had no dif­ ficulty at all in trouncing the Teachers by the score of 44-1 9. 11 proved to be merely a warm­ up for the Spartans and showed nothing in the line of a prediction for the future. Like­ wise were the results of the second start of the season—the Green and White outfit pull­ ing away from Kalamazoo by the score of 40-22, never being even pressed all through the game. In their third start, the Spartans met up with their old rivals from the University of Michigan on the Michigan home court and suffered their first defeat at the hands of the Wolverines in many years, losing by the score of 31-26. In this defeat, the Statemen missed the services of big Arn Van Faasen and Ron Carlock, flashy reserve, who were out with injuries. The next ball game on their schedule was with the highly-touted five of North­ western University, who very convincingly took the Spartans into camp and beat them in 35-29. the Statemen scoring, being closely followed by Rouse, Herrick, and Vaydik. Van Faasen led Recovering in fine style from the humili­ ation of the Northwestern defeat, the Green and White junketeers parked their shoes in Page one hundred ninety-seven VARSITY Chicago for a while and promptly handed the Loyola five a slap in the face, beating them by the score of 26-1 9. returned home and After their tour of the Big Ten, the the took on Spartans Crimson Flash from Palo Alto in the team from Stanford University. This game was fea­ tured by the teams playing under the rules used out on the coast. In this style of play the center jump is done away with and out of bound plays are used exclusively. In spite of their unfamiliarity with this system, the Spartans emerged on the long end of the score, winning easily by a 25-18 lead. Hitting the Spartans journeyed to Wisconsin to tackle the Badgers road again, the on their home court. They displayed much better basketball than they had to date and tussled back and forth with the Badgers for two periods, an overtime period being neces­ sary to decide the final outcome, with Wis­ consin coming out on the top of the 23-21 score. Mike Rouse of State and Pete Preboski of Wisconsin shared the scoring honors for the evening. Wayne University was the next victim for the Spartans. In a supposedly tough con­ test Coach Van Alstyne was able to use 12 of his squad, and all seemed to be able to score equally easily. The final score was' 45 to 23. Next on the beginning-to-get-long list of victims for the Spartans were the Hurons Rouse Rolen Herrick Page one hundred ninety-eight of Michigan State Normal. This contest was also supposed to be another tough one for State, but again proved to be a flop, with Van Alstyne’s crew romping over the Hurons with a brilliant floor attack and an uncanny eye for the basket. Led by Arn Van Faasen. Ron Car- lock, and Bob Herrick, the Green and White outfit showed much promise for the future and beat the Hurons 31-17. In their first game with Western Reserve University at Cleveland, the Statemen, playing on the small floor of the Red-Cats, had a little difficulty in defeating them, but man­ aged to win a close one by the score of 34-33. the game featuring the kind of thrills that basketball fans love to see in a game. Next, the Spartans speedy cagers ran rough shod over the Hillsdale college quintet at Demonstration Hall. This contest which from a competitive standpoint was very slow and uninteresting had a final score of 45-24. The individual performances of Carlock, Rouse, and Herrick helped to brighten up the game considerably, however, the three ac­ counting for 24 points and each playing a fine floor game. In the next game, also played at home before a packed Demonstration Hall, the Spar­ tans led by Van Faasen and Garlock eked out a well deserved victory over Bill Chandler’s Marquette five by the narrow margin of 30- 29. This contest was packed with thrills and Frizzo Reck Rogers Carlock Van Faasen Page one hundred ninety-nine Heppinstall, VanAlstyne, Scholtz, Kemp. Rolen, Vaydik, White, Rogers.

In had the fans on their feet cheering for over half the game, while booing at the rough tac­ tics of both teams during the other half. their return engagement with the Hurons of MSN, the Statemen again whipped the men from Normal by the huge score of 53-28. There seemed to be no holding the Spartans, as they scored at will. The next home games for the Spartans were very dull and disappointing, the Spar­ tans first taking Wayne University 40-22, and then beating Western Reserve badly by the score of 36-17, neither of the games pro­ viding any opposition for the Statemen. Playing before a packed house, the Spar­ tans met the U. of M. team again and this time beat them out in a very close contest which ended up with State on top of the 30-28 score. Thrills galore were provided in this game, and the State team responded to the cheers of the fans and outdid the Wol­ verines in fine, but close style, being pressed all the way. Van Faasen and Carlock were Page two hundred in fine fettle for this game, and they, com­ bined with Rouse and Herrick made too much trouble for the Wolverines. In their biggest game of the season, the State team turned back the University of Kentucky, 32-26, in a great game with a great team. The Kentucky Colonels brought their great center Edwards along, and he lived up to his name, but the marvelous guarding of Rouse, Herrick, and Van Faasen saved the day for the Spartans, with the other Spartans right in there fighting to make State one of the great teams of America. The Spartans wound up their season away from home; playing Marquette there and losing a close game 20-17, much rough­ ness and fouling featuring the game. Both teams played rough defensive ball and the Hilltoppers seemed to have been just a little better at it. Herrick, Carlock, Reck, and Van Faasen starred for State, and Morstadt, Ehrig, and Rasmussen did likewise for Marquette in' a game that broke State’s string of consecu­ tive games won. JOHN KOBS Coach Probably no other Spartan athletic coach has turned out so many stellar performers as has John Kobs, head baseball coach. Ever since he has been at the head of the State diamond machine the Spartans have enjoyed in baseball. the usual success more than Well liked both by players and fans Coach Kobs is sure to be at State for a long time to come. 1934VARSITY SCHEDULE 16 4 1 1 4 Mar.24—MichiganState Mar.26—MichiganState Mar.27—MichiganState Mar.28—MichiganState Mar.29—MichiganState Mar.30—MichiganState_________4 Mar.31 —MichiganState 1 8—MichiganState Apr. 21 —MichiganState Apr. 24—MichiganState Apr. 1 —MichiganState May 5—MichiganState May 9—MichiganState May 1 2—MichiganState May 1 8—MichiganState May 1 9—MichiganState May 22—MichiganState May 25—MichiganState May 30—MichiganState May 2—MichiganState J une 4—MichiganState June 8—MichiganState June 9—MichiganState June 8 3 5 9 3 1 8 4 4 13 0 2 1 13 4 6 6 Page two hundred two ...

ROUSE Captain n Playing his third year as a varsity third sacker, Cap­ tain Rouse is expected to be the mainstay of a baseball team which should be one of the best to represent State in a good many years. Noted throughout the mid-west for his sharp field­ ing and bullet like pegs, Rouse is really a fighting man and a fit leader for any Spartan team. Al Kronbach, and George Hopkins rolled up their sleeves, and despite their inexperience and stage fright did their work in true Spartan style. The first base job was taken over by The led the team loss of McCaslin and Pemberton, the great Spartan hurlers of the 1933 cam­ paign, Eliowitz, the slugging first baseman those and Fawcett, Kircher and Caffner, sparkling outfielders who in batting caused many a fan to wag his head knowingly and to predict a miserable season for the Kobsmen. State had three sophomore pitchers who were “hanging” on during the training period, a second year first baseman and three rookie fly chasers who had to blend themselves with such veterans as Captain Floyd “River” Morse, Art Rouse, Bill McCann, and Ed Klewicki in order to make a smooth running club which could “operate” on their foes for wins. The blending process began with the traditional southern trip and didn’t end till the close of the season, showing State with ten victories, eleven losses and one tie— a good record for a team boasting so many, youngsters. These youngsters really stepped in and produced results. The pitchers, Johnny Berg, Fiedler, Morse, Hopkins Page two hundred three “Buzz” Bartling, but unlike the Irving in true story book pitchers, he started off fashion. Such flashy, smooth and graceful fielding we have seldom seen the likes of on any college diamond, and we are just about convinced is that the suggestion probably the greatest first baseman to ever play for State is true. Chuck Brown, Freddy Ziegel and Harold Welch, worked nicely in the outfield showing speed in their fly chas­ ing and power in their slugging, and gave the veterans a real fight for their positions. that he Big Bill McCann proved the surprise of the season for the veterans by promoting him- Brown, McCann, Fager Page two hundred four self from a mediocre hitter to the number one man of the offensive. Art Rouse, the genial Boyne City flash wrapped up third base and put it away for the season. His patrolling of the hot corner and bullet pegs to first, combined with de­ pendable hitting relieved Coach Kobs of all his worries about that quarter. “Steam Shovel” Ed Klewicki of football fame served as first assistant to catcher Riv Morse, and because of his slugging tenden­ cies, often chased the pill out in the gardens. Arnold Parker started out the season as the only upper-classman pitcher but gradually shifted the sophomore pitchers developed. His speed and batting eye rendered it impossible for him to warm the bench for any great length of time. the outfield as to Theron Fager and Eddie Fiedler teamed up at second and short to complete one of the smoothest infields State has ever had, while their batting averages hovered around the .270 mark. The team left for the sunny south with­ out having had even a day’s practice out of doors, and were snowed out of their first game. Undaunted, they traveled on to wallop Davidson College 16-6 in a typical seasons opener unearthing many hits and errors. With errors still as their theme song the next day, they fell before a strong Duke University the following day, team 14-4. Still working the “boots” out of their systems on they found themselves winning a ball game, blast­ ing Elon College 11-10, by making more hits than errors. The University of North Caro­ lina eked out a 5-4 win over the Spartans the next day, in a more serious type of game. State wound up the southern tour with an 8-8 tie against the Rocky Mount Amateurs at Rocky Mountain, North Carolina. The close of the tour showed two wins, three losses and one tie. However, the entire team’s bat­ ting average was .337 which is good in any man’s in the pinches were the main causes of their dropping below the .500 mark. Errors and failure to hit league. worse beating. State took this one by a score of 9-3. The Spartans then went into a slump losing four out of five starts; succumbing to the University of Michigan, Ohio State Uni­ versity, and twice to Western State Teachers College, and beating Notre Dame. The Ohio State game was a fourteen inning affair end­ ing in a 6-4 loss for State. However, our Green team came back the next day and wal­ loped O.S.U. 13-4. Michigan State Normal then avenged her defeat of earlier in the season by blank­ Indiana University, ing the Spartans 3-0. The opening of the home season pro­ duced a nice 3-2 victory over Hillsdale College. Art Rouse brought the spectators inning with a to their feet in the second screaming homer Fiedler singled Bill McCann home from second base in the ninth inning to end the game. Coach Kobs sent his three rookie pitchers into the game for three innings apiece—a stunt that he pulled often during the season.

The bitterest pill of the season was then swallowed by State when she bowed to the University of Michigan 5-1, for the second It was the first time in many years time. that State didn’t at the Wolverines. On June second, the Spartans out-slugged Notre Dame to win 13-9. least split with Two days later the Cleveland Indians of the American League played an exhibition game on Old College field with the Spartans. The great Walter Johnson gave the fans a thrill by starting on the Indians. With three men on and none out, Bill McCann parked one of Johnson’s offer­ ings in the Red Cedar for a home run giving the mound for State four runs. This peeved the “Big Train’’ so, that he bore down, and the Spartans never In the meantime touched third base again. the Indians collected nineteen hits for four­ teen runs, the game ending, Cleveland 14, State 4.

The fact that seven sophomores two men graduated made good and only makes State’s prospects for the next couple of years very, very bright. Page two hundred six LAUREN P. BROWN Assistant Coach To Lauren Brown, cross country and as­ sistant track coach, must go a great deal of credit for the fine showing made by track and field men at State. After compiling a bril­ liant record as a distance man, Brown has aided two successors, Clark Chamberlain and Tom Ottey, to attain equal success, Ottey cli­ maxing the efforts of the three by leading the cross country to its second consecutive na­ tional championship.

OTTEY A veteran of not only national, but inter­ national competition, Tom Ottey, ace of the Michigan State college cross country ^and dis­ tance men, is recognized as one of the out­ standing harriers in the middle west today. Ottey’s national competition has been gained by entrance in nearly every major cross country and track meet in America during the past three years, while his international ap­ pearance was made in the last Olympics held in Los Angeles. Holding as his major titles two victories in the I. C. A. A. A.

In the above mentioned 4 A meet he has twice defeated Page two hundred nine the pick of the cross country men from all over the United States to win the most cher­ ished hill and dale title in America. On Coach Young’s track team, Ottey has made just as much of a name for himself as he has on Coach Brown’s cross country aggregation. Young has entered fleet-footed the importance in many meets of speedster throughout the country and has watched him win in both the mile and two mile events with monotonous consistency. Aside from his outstanding record in track and cross country, Ottey has found time to make himself a really B. M. O. C. Listed among his non-athletic activities are: Senior Class President, Student Council member, Blue Key, and Manager of Wells Hall Boarding Club. VARSITY TRACK 1934 Faced with a schedule which proved to be just a little too tough State’s 1934 track team had a difficult time last spring in main­ taining their usual high ranking in national intercollegiate field and track circles. Under the guiding hand of Ralph Young, head track coach and Director of Athletics, the Spartan thin clads were entered in every meet of any importance throughout the entire coun­ try. The outdoor season opened with the Fortieth Annual University of Pennsylvania Jackson took first in Relays at Philadelphia. the Hop Step and Jump, Steele took fourth in the 400 meter hurdles, and Hammer took a third in the 3000 meter Steeple Race. In the Medley Relay, State garnered a second, and in the four mile relay State took a second to Manhattan College.

In the ninth Annual Intercollegiates held at Marquette University, State managed to put together enough seconds and thirds, combined with a couple of firsts to take third place. The University of Indiana and Marquette fin­ ished ahead of the Spartans. Wes Hurd step­ ped out to win the mile run for State by de­ feating Hobbs of Indiana, while Dennis was taking a third in the same event. In the fea­ ture race, the 2 mile run, Sears, Butler Uni­ versity’s great ace, and Tom Ottey, State star, staged a thriller before Sears broke the tape in 9:34.9. However, Hart, Pongrace, Dennis, and Dittrich combined to gather the rest of the points. On June 9th, Coach Young entered most of his squad in the Western Michigan A. A. U. Otto Pongrace 1934 Captain Track and Field meet at Grand Rapids, and again the Spartans picked off third place against a strong field. Michigan State Normal won the affair, and Western State was second. In the 3000 meter run Ottey was again forced to trail Zepp to the tape when the Ypsi flash showed just a little too much speed. Roger Keast stepped out to win the 400 meter hurdles, and Beaumont won the Javelin throw. While these boys were winning first places Agett, Hart, Hoff, Dennis and Dittrich were all winning points in their respective events, and the 1600i meter relay team composed of Hoff, Keast, Dennis, and Munn ran second to Ypsi. With only a few men entered State still managed to garner a few points in the Na­ tional Collegiate meet, held at Los Angeles. Here against the pick of the track men from all over the nation Ottey ran seventh in the two mile run, which was won by Crowley of Manhattan. Pongrace took a fifth and Hurd a seventh in the mile run, an event which was won by the renowned Bill Bonthron, Princeton star from Detroit. Pongrace entered the 880 yard run but did not finish his heat. Again entering a meet which had an en­ try list composed of stars from every college in the United States, several Spartans took places in the National A. A. U. Track and Field Championships at Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Pongrace won his heat in the 800 meter run. Gardner of the State Frosh ran second to Smith of Pittsburg Teachers in the 5000 meter run. In the 10,000 meters Ottey ran three miles and then dropped out. Once again entering a dual meet compe­ tition the Spartans dropped a tough one to the University of Notre Dame’s huge squad by a 80 1-3 to 50 2-3 count. First in the meet were taken by Hart in the 100, Pongrace in the 880; Hurd in the mile, with Ottey taking third; and by Beaumont in the javelin.

McFarlane, a graduate of St. Mary’s, Lansing, where he starred in basketball, proved a constant threat to the State distance men. Several State men placed in the Fifty- Eighth Annual I. C. A. A. A.

Beaumont took fifth in the javelin, Hart took a fifth in his heat of the 100 yard dash; Pongrace took third in his trial heat in the 800 meter race and then took fourth in the finals, an event which was again won by Bonthron. Hart failed to qualify in the 200 meter the 1500 meter race, Hurd took third in event, which was also won by Bonthron, and Ottey lost out to Crowley in the 3000 meter run. The meet was won by Stanford Univer­ sity, with State placing eleventh with nine Standford had 35 1 -4 points. points. In the final event of the year, the Eleven­ th Annual Michigan A. A. U.

Dennis took fourth in the 400 meter dash; Hammer took fourth in the 5000 meter run, and Gardner of the Frosh took third in the 1500 meter run. Dennis took third in the 800 meter run, but Beaumont failed to place in the discus and the shot put. Michigan State Normal took first place in the event with 69 1-3 points; Detroit Po­ lice second, and Great Lakes A. A. third. Page two hundred twelve TENNIS REX B. NORRIS Michigan State Intercollegiate Singles Champion 1934 Never a brilliant player, Norris has reached the top and endeared himself to his fellow tennis enthusiasts by his persistent plugging. Rex never gave up; no ball was smashed at too much of an angle or no drop shot dropped too close to the net to stop Rex from running his heart out to reach it. Rex won’t be back next year, but his ever trying figure will hover in the background of the courts on Grand River. TENNIS 1934 Long before State’s tennis team (1934 edition) emerged from its long winter hiber­ nation, word was passing among those in the know that this was THE year, as far as tennis was concerned. All members of the squad were veterans: Weitz, Norris, Link, Loose, Goodwin and Stonebreaker all being letter- men, with Klunzinger, Sexton and O’Dell showing lots of promise but lacking in ex­ perience. On April 27 the season opened rather auspiciously. The netmen beat Michigan. The following day, the boys felt awfully ugly and to Kalamazoo College, showed no mercy trouncing them 9-0. The warmer climate of southern Ohio then beckoned to the boys, and they launched forth, trimming Oberlin 8-1 and Ohio State 10-0. they put Returning home, in a busy week-end subduing Michigan State Normal, Oberlin and Notre Dame on successive after­ noons. The match with Michigan State Nor­ mal was nearly lost when Coach Ball tried out some of his Sophs and let the Varsity rest. The following week another intra-state opponent was tackled when the squad jour­ neyed to Kalamazoo and met Western State. This match was won but only after the tough­ est kind of a struggle. Weitz met his first strenuous competition when he barely nosed out Benny Leavin in three torrid sets. The next day they moved on to South Bend and helped the Irish dedicate their new courts by defeating them 6-3. Page two hundred fourteen STANLEY WEITZ Michigan State Intercollegiate Singles Champion 1933 Stan has probably done more for the furtherance of Throughout his tennis at State than any other person. three years of varsity competition he led the rest of the boys to many notable victories. As splendid a player as he was, he was never too busy to stop and help some youth who had varsity aspirations and not much more. Besides being a first class tennis player Stan Weitz was the type of man who really deserved the team captaincy which he received. net. They were both playing their last match in college competition, and since Weitz had ranked as number one all season he was ex­ pected to win without too much trouble. Rex, however, had other ideas and after lingering in the background for three years stepped forth and beat Stan in straight sets. This pair then came back the later and beat Western State team of Laevin and Gur- man the to annex doubles title. Page two hundred fifteen Three Big Ten schools were the next vic­ tims of State’s fast moving netters. On Fri­ day they met Michigan on the East Lansing courts and walloped them 7-2. Saturday they beat Ohio State 5-1, and on the following Monday they accomplished their most note­ worthy victory and a fitting climax to a most illustrious season by convincingly defeating Chicago, champions of the Big Ten confer­ ence, 5-1 on the college court. The outstand­ ing match of this meet was the singles match in which Weitz beat Davidson, the Big Ten singles champion. The Chicago doubles team of Davidson and Weiss, holders of the Big Ten doubles championship, trounced Weitz and Norris for the sole victory of the Chicago lads. This match concluded the season as far as dual matches were concerned, but on the following Wednesday State played host to the other colleges of the state in the State Inter- collegiates. Western State Teachers, Michigan State Normal, Albion College, Kalamazoo College, and Michigan State entered representatives with State winning the meet with 13 points. In the finals of the singles of this tournament Weitz and Norris faced each other across the Coach Ball, Sexton, Klunzinger, Loose, O’Dell, Goodwin, Link, Sawyer. Co-Captain Norris, Co-Captain Weitz. CHARLES D. BALL Coach To Charles D. Ball, an excellent chem prof, but a better tennis coach, goes the honor of lifting tennis from the ranks of minor sports at Michigan State to the level of most of the major sports in the college. The oldest of any of the State coaches in the point of service, Coach Ball has watched tennis at State grow from a game that only “sissies” played to a sport that attracts nation­ wide attention. He has watched State’s tennis team grow from a group of farm lads out for a little recreation to a highly mechanized com­ last year’s bination through swept that schedule, embracing the best teams in this part of the country, without a defeat. Known throughout the middle west for his fine teams, Coach Ball is fast becoming re­ spected for his own excellent knowledge of the game. His most recent accomplishments have been the development of Rex Norris and Stan Weitz to ranking players. He now is working intensively on Willard Klunzinger, Captain-elect of this year’s net team, and promises to make him as sterling a player as either Weitz or Norris. M. S. C. M. S. C. M. S. C. M. S.

Led by the one and only Tom Ottey, the 1934 Michigan State Cross Country squad ran through one of the toughest schedules in his­ tory with perhaps the best record ever com­ piled by a State harrier team. With the All-College run as the season’s starter. The hill and dale men defeated Butler University, Notre Dame University, and Indi­ ana University in duel meets before entering the State Intercollegiate run. In the State In­ tercollegiate, Ottey, Bechtold, and j. Gardner finished one, two, and three to win the event for State. On November 20 the State cross country team again captured the I. C. A. A. A.

Against the pick of the harriers from all over the country, Michi­ gan State was low with a total of 77 points. Maine, Manhattan, and Yale finished in that order after the Spartans. After this rather glorious victory the Spartans continued the season with a battle in the Central Intercollegiates at East Lansing in which they lost by a one point margin to Indiana University, a battle in which Lash of Indiana defeated Ottey. At the National A. A. U., held late in November at the University of Iowa, Lash again defeated Ottey, and State took a second to Millrose Athletic club, to end the season.

Hampered by lack of college support, along with the lack of suitable opposition near here, the team did better than could be expected even with their seemingly poor record. the Under leadership of Lieutenant Drake, cavalry officer assigned to the college, the team lost to the University of Chicago, both here and there, and split with the riders from the Culver Military academy. Chicago was first met at Chicago on March ninth, with the Big Ten team return­ ing here for a pair of games on March 22, and 23. Culver was met there March 29, and 30 and here on April 12, and 13. Polo at Michigan State is played with the regular army horses assigned to the college, and when the Statemen have to ride against the caliber of horses presented by the Culver Academy boys they are put at a distinct dis­ advantage. Five men formed the back bone of the 1935 polo team. Wallace Clark appeared more or less regularly at number one position. Clark was recognized as a hard rider, and a real fighter. Bob Weber played at the number two post, with Robert Humphrey generally starting at the number three position, where he played a stellar game all year. Besides these three men Joe Pelton and Don Freshour often appeared in the lineup. Pelton was a dangerous man, a hard rider, and a good polo player. Page two hundred twenty-one RIFLE Name John E.

The final count for the rifle team was a record of twenty-two matches won and eleven lost, with one match tied. Led by Captain Newell,' regular army officer stationed at the college, the rifle team was able to defeat most of the schools in the mid-west, and ended a brilliant season with a victory in the 6th Corps Area Intercollegiate matches.

Jones, a member of the Lansing Rifle Club, showed vast improvement during the past year, and it is expected that next year he will be pressing Lilley for his place as number one man on the team.

Eventually the group leased a home on Grand River on a site which is now the center of the business block. The fraternity’s first permanent home was purchased in 1916. This house is still occupied by the Phyleans. During the war most of the members left college to join the ranks over­ seas, and in 1917 the house was utilized by the government as a temporary hospital and nurses’ home. In 1920 several improvements were made in the house. A large dining room was added, and later a number of study rooms and a sleeping dormitory were built. Carlton Spencer heads the list of Phyl­ eans as far as activities are con­ cerned. He is chief varsity cheer leader, a position which he has held is notable as for two pears.

The Alpha Theta chapter was established at Michigan State in 1925. Late in the fall term of 1934j the chapter house located on East Grand River was de­ stroyed by fire, and the members were forced to seek new lodging. The boys decided to hold together and soon moved into a tempo­ rary location at the corner of MAC and Grand River Avenues. It was decided to carry out the plans for the year as scheduled, and this was done successfully in spite of the incon­ venience caused by the fire. On December tenth the Pi Kaps cele- brated the thirtieth anniversary of the national organization, and a banquet was held in the Union. At this time plans were formulated for the recon­ struction of fraternity house, and at the present writing this work has practically been completed. razed the w The fact that a record number of men were pledged during the fall term offers a fine tes­ timonial of the confidence inspired by Pi Kap­ pa Phi. its members.

With the induction in subsequent years of other societies and na­ tional fraternities, an interest in establishing a better governing body was manifested, and as a result an effective Panhellenic organiza­ tion was evolved. In 1 929 the Council became a member of the National Urban Panhellenic Council, only to dissolve its association with this organization in 1932 and become a mem­ ber council of the National Panhellenic Con­ gress. All the sororities on the campus are rep­ resented in the Council at its monthly meet­ ings. The purpose of the organization is to establish an intrafraternity compact between all the member chapters and to regulate is­ sues of interest to the groups. Such matters as rules for rushing and ribboning of pledges are dictated by Panhellenic. It sets the dates for all the rushing parties and is responsible for the rule that pledges cannot live at their sorority house. The organization also awards a cup to the society with the highest scholas­ tic average. This recognition of scholastic su­ periority is given annually. Sigma Kappa is now in possession of the cup for the fourth consecutive year. For the first time Panhell­ enic this year offered a cup for the best homecoming decorations among the sorori­ ties. This award was won by Alpha Xi Delta. The Panhellenic banquet was held at the Union on December 13th. Mrs. Mary Drum­ mond, national vice president of Alpha Omi- cron Pi, was guest speaker. The Panhellenic Ball was held March 15th in the Union ball­ room. The music of Nate Frye graced this oc­ casion which closed the winter formal season.

The first meeting of the new society was held at the home of Mrs. James B. Has- selman. In the spring of 1929, it was neces­ sary for the society to hold its rushing parties in the Union building, due to lack of a per­ manent society house. In the fall of that year, the members secured rooms together at a Charles Street residence, and in the fall of 1930 the Delta Alphas moved into their new house on Albert Street. A house warming was given in honor of the occasion. The date of organization is now observed each year by a sorority breakfast to which alumnae and pledges are invited. The chapter is promin­ ently active in campus organiza- tions and among its members are in Omi- numbered representatives cron Nu, Mu Phi Epsilon, Orchesis, f|ft, and Beta Alpha Sigma. The scholastic average of the group also compares favorably with that of the other houses on the campus. A list of prominent names in the society roster includes Virginia Gann, a member of Orchesis, Florence Joughin, of Y. W. C. A. prominence, and Bernita Taylor, Vice Presi­ dent of Tower Guard. Several of the group are also in W. A. A. and Y. W. C. A. activities. This year’s homecoming saw a return of at least three fourths of the alumnae for the week end. The guests were entertained at a breakfast in their honor, and an open meeting was held afterward. The Delta Alpha fall term party was held in the Little Theater late in November. The room was cleverly decorated and featured an enlarged copy of the society’s pin, on which lights were used to replace the jewels.

These new features pic­ ture the completeness of its value: New Solid-Steel “Turret-Top” Fisher bodies, with Fisher No Draft Ventilation.
