I think a number of "old timers" would be interested in a story on the Carpenter family. Five brothers and sisters gradu ated from the college. They were Prof. R. C. Carpenter, '73, Judge William L. '75, Prof. L. G. Carpenter, Carpenter, '79, Mary Carpenter Mayo, '88, and Jennette Carpenter Wheeler, '98. Three of them taught at the college, and Judge Carpenter was a member of the State Board of Agriculture. Yours sincerely, N. S. Mayo, '88, Highland Park, Illinois. I suspect Leland Locke, like myself associated with mathematics staff of that time. that this note will prove superfluous, for I am sure that that pic ture will set to fluttering the heart of many a one of your alumnae of that period and that accordingly you have by this time been numerously advised. Yours sincerely, Alfred H. Parrott, North Dakota Agricultural college. P.S. Fond memories of the happy days I spent on your campus are often revived thru a nephew of mine who is now associated with your chemistry staff, Thomas Lester Canniff.—A.H.P.

Or how many of M.S.C.'s 14,550 alumni are living in your state? On these pages you'll find the answers to both queries. for The educational program There are 5,932 students shown in 43 states represented in the enrollment at M.S.C. for the winter term. Add to this figure 25 students from 3 U. S. posses sions and 8 foreign countries, 1,800 sum mer school registrations, 51,333 4-H club members, 26,766 home extension en- rollees, 342 short course students, and you'll find a yearly enrollment of 86,198. these is directed, either on or off students campus, by Michigan State college's staff. Although the credit received by the extension enrollment does not lead toward a college degree, these people acquire knowledge and skills to become more efficient farmers and homemakers. In the 48 states and District of Colum bia, there are 14,403 alumni whose addresses and professional interests are on record in the office of Gladys Franks, '27, alumni recorder. Add to this figure the 147 alumni in the 6 U. S. possessions and 29 foreign countries, and you have an accounting of 14,550 men and women. The 10 states, Michigan, Illinois, New York, Ohio, California, Indiana, Pennsyl vania, Wisconsin, New Jersey, Texas, which have the most alumni, also are among the first 10 from where Michigan In State gets her largest enrollment. addition, there are active clubs in those states, except New Jersey and Texas. To show further relationship between student enrollment and alumni influence, 25 per cent of the student body stated at registration that relatives, last fall friends, and teachers had some effect on their decision to come to M.S C. At the same time, 49 per cent of the students said courses were the deciding factor in their coming to Michigan State. Other reasons accounting for the remaining 26 per cent were location, scholarship, low cost, and the beautiful campus. From the figures on the opposite page you'll discover several students on the campus come from the Philippine Islands and Hawaiian Islands. Others come from China, Russia, Thailand, Union of South Africa, Panama, Peru, Chile, and Canada. 10 T HE R E C O RD In fact, Michigan State's student body of 86,198 represents people from 83 counties in Michigan, 43 states and the District of Columbia, 3 U.

And this time, we don't mean air It's baseball, tennis balls, golf planes. balls, and footballs that are in the air as players and coaches open a spring offensive of their own along the inter collegiate athletic front. Baseball this south spring Coach John Kobs took a baseball team further than ever before, defying blowouts as well as diamond enemies. The Spartans had their share of tire troubles, but they also came back with a fair number of vic tories. They toured as far south as Pensacola, Florida, where they met the Naval Base Flyers' team in a series of three games, and to Fort Benning, Georgia, to have a fling with the Army. All in all, the team won three games, lost three, and tied one. Coach Kobs figured a .500 record against the southern nines was about right. then came back The team won two out of three games against the Navy and took one engage ment from Clemson. Georgia, with a powerful hitting team, beat State twice. One game with Alabama Poly Tech at Auburn, Alabama, was rained off. National Wrestling Champions Above are the Jennings twins, Burl, left, Merle, right, and William Maxwell, center. The decorative scene provided a patriotic setting for the presentation of awards at the National Collegiate Wrestling tournament held in the Jenison fieldhouse. the team's hitting on Coach Kobs was not satisfied with the trip, and remained worried over the left side of his infield. Third base and shortstop berths remained wide open as the home campaign opened. First base, with Joe Nelson and Bob Young fighting it out, was also in doubt. Willie Davis seems installed at second, and the outfield is pretty well established with Wy Davis, Captain Bill Fitzsimmons, and Frankie Pelkrin in the gardens. Howard Ladue has gone from left field to catcher. Al Jones was slow in rounding into pitching form, but Joe Skrocki appeared up to snuff and Dick Bernitt, Colin Getz, and Bob Telder are reserves who look much improved this year and just about rate varsity designation. Tennis The tennis team played three matches in the Southwestern conference during spring vacation. Playing without the services of Bill Maxwell, who rates one- two on the netmen beat Arkansas, 8-1, then dropped two matches to Oklahoma by 3-6, 4-5 counts. Maxwell was busy winning a NCAA 136-pound wrestling championship at home while tour. Only his court mates were on team, the letter man available other is Captain Frank Beaman. Coach Ball has his hands full shaping the rest of the squad out of a bunch of green sophomores. Golf Golf is really a worry to Coach Van Alstyne. The veteran Spartan mentor hadn't any notion of a lineup for the early matches, and said that prospects were that he would not have a team established before mid-season. All new hands are reporting. Wrestling Champions Staging of the National Collegiate Athletic association wrestling tourna ment in Jenison fieldhouse during spring in a series of vacation was another major athletic events which have come to the campus in recent years. Oklahoma A. & M. won the team title, but not without Michigan State giving the famous Aggies a terrific battle for the honors. The Aggies placed first with 31 points, and State was second with 26. Three Spartan wrestlers won Jennings national famous twins, who The become champions. have here, successfully nationally in the two years they have wrestled defended their titles. Merle (Cut) Jennings won at 121 pounds, and Burl (Bo) Jennings won at 128 pounds. The other title went to William Maxwell at 136 pounds. Bill was second last year. Captain Leland Merrill placed the 155-pound class, despite a leg injury he sustained in a semi-final bout. third in There were 79 contestants from 23 different colleges and universities. The meet was highly successful, and Athletic Director Young and Coach Collins were showered with compliments by coaches, officials, and contestants for the smooth and competent manner in which the two- day event was staged. Spring Football This is a re-building year in football, so Coach Charley Bachman and his capable staff are toiling strenuously in spring drills. Of the starting team that finished the 1941 season, only two play ers—Left Halfback Dick Kieppe and Right Halfback Walter Pawlowski—are sure of returning. All the others will the service, or have graduate, enter finished their period of eligibility. There A P R I L, 1 9 42 . . . 13 is a prospect of 15 letter men returning. The same number has passed beyond the call of Coach Bachman. The crop of sophomores is better than usual. Spring practice has revealed that reserves from last year's team will have to hustle if they expect to move into varsity jobs. Perhaps the leading pros pect last is Captain Vincent Mroz of year's freshman team. "Vine" is a 200- pound end who has quickly proved himself. It's a little early to mention the sophomores as first line replacements, but some of them are headed that way. 1942 Schedule The schedule for next fall is really big league. Santa Clara, because of war restrictions in the San Francisco area, asked to be relieved of its game. So Oregon State, the Rose Bowl champions, was substituted. is to be a home It game. Shifting of the schedule left a vacancy on October 24, so Athletic Director Ralph H.

Duane, who played left half back here in 1939, was the first varsity letter man to make the supreme sacrifice in the present war. Those who knew him here will always remember him as a fine young gentleman, a loyal teammate, and an earnest youth who always gave of himself freely for others.
