A. Stroh, '15, two days have been designat ed by College authorities for the reception of high school students on the Campus during the college year. This spring will be the first attempt of this sort sponsored by alumni and the institution and should mark an advance in the work of the grad uates to bring the College up to its highest to point of efficiency itself the best of the high school graduates. It is planned, in accordance with Stroll's suggestion, that alumni will bring to East Lansing several hundred prospective stu dents on May 30 and the groups will be officially entertained. All are requested to bring picnic lunches with them and these can be eaten on the picnic there will be a the Campus, grounds of short meeting at which the visitors will have a chance to hear President Butter- field, there will be athletic events of parti cular interest to the group attending and of general interest to all and information about the College will be given the indivi duals by students and alumni specially dele gated for the occasion. June 6 and In order that attention may be centered upon special groups, May 30 will be mark ed by invitations to all high schools with enrollments of 500 or more, the class " A" schools. On June 6 the class " B" and " C" high schools will be invited and on those days the respective track championships of the state will be determined at the annual interscholastic meets on College field. May 30 there will also be the horse show and a baseball game between the varsity and But ler university, on June 6 the program will be made attractive the Notre through in the after Dame baseball game played noon at all of which events the visitors will be guests. Nothing has been planned for later than the close of the baseball games because the committee in charge of formulating the pro gram, of which J. B. Hasselman is chair man, believes the visitors will wish to return home at that time. that most of In suggesting the plan Stroh, former secretary of the M. A. C. club of Detroit letter: made the proposal in the following "I propose that at some time toward the end of the spring term, say in the last week of May, a day be set aside on the campus, call it alumni day if you please, when the College will be hosts to visiting high school inter students. There are a number of esting events which take place at the Col lege about that time of year, such as the inter-scholastic track meet, the high school band competition, the horse show, an out door play, a water carnival, baseball games, etc. My plan would call for several of these events to be arranged this one inter-scholastic day,—say the finals in the morning, a picnic at noon, a ball game in the afternoon, and a dance, or play or water carnival at night, or any other com bination which it seems convenient to ar range. in the for the purpose of The scheme would then be to have all of the local alumni bodies of Michigan con centrate on that date on bringing to East Lansing eligible high school pupils, pre ferable seniors, for intro ducing them to the College at its best, and while its activities swing. are Transportation would be by automobile, cars to be donated and driven in the usual case by alumni of the city concerned. O ur instance, I am firmly con group here for vinced, would transport upward one hundred boys and girls to the College for such an event—and bring them home again of course that same night. full of in Page 420 The M. A. C. Record T he scheme apparently would have the following advantages: 1. It would get away from the practice in the past of centering our propaganda, what little there has been, on eligible ath letes, and would distribute it over a wider include men and women who field, though not would make good necessarily good athletes. students, to 2. It would give the something definite to do and to work alumni groups for. 3. All expenses of the high school stu dents would be paid, but the cost to any in dividual alumnus or association would be very small,—the cost of gas and oil in the usual case to the former, and the cost of a picnic lunch and possibly a dance, which might be met from College funds. 4. It would show off the campus in its working clothes at the best time of year. Given an opportunity to inspect the build ings and grounds at some time during the day, the high school people would gain a more intimate knowledge of what we have than volumes of correspondence to offer could do. 5. The trip would be made at a time when majority of high school seniors are making up their minds what college to at tend. 6. By making it an annual event, even if the first year showed but meager results, the thing would grow in interest with the years. 7. T he scheme of combining several an nual events on one day would not be diffi far cult if plans were made ahead so that the difficulty of entertain ment would practically solve itself. sufficiently Scholarshp honors will count as high as athletic honors among the members of the squads in competition hereafter, a series of cups and medals will be given the com in the class petitors who do good work in the list room.

Menmuir, If you are within driving distance of the College and live in or near a town with a class " A" high school you can bring a load to the Campus on June 6 for the big high school day of the year. If you live in or near a town with a class " B" or " C" high school come on May 30. On either date there will be attractions enough to satisfy your guests that the College is a desirable place. All high schools having an enroll ment of 500 or over are designed as class "A", all others come under the other two: classes, both of which are invited for the same day. this organization The College Y.
