Macklin, Father of Big Time Athletics at MSC, Dies October 10 NSC for New Course John Farrell Macklin, the founding father of big time football at Michigan State College, died of a heart ailment in his Philadelphia apartment Oct. 10. He was 65 years old. In The man for whom MSC's enlarged stadium is named, boasted one of the finest coaching records in the annals of football. from 1911 five years, through 1915, he won 30 games while losing 5 for a percentage of .853. He was the only Spartan mentor in history to have an undefeated season, and the first to beat the University of Michigan. Macklin Upset Michigan in 1913 That red letter day was in 1913 when Michigan State upset a team coached by the great Fielding H. "Hurry Up" Yost by a score of 12 to 7. MSC lost a tight one 3 to 0 the following year, but roared back in 1915 to trounce Michigan 24-0. This year marked the end of Macklin's coaching career. He quit, "while still ahead." During his five years at Michigan State, Macklin served as athletic direc tor, baseball and track coach as well as football mentor. He also did part- t i me w o rk as trainer. When he first came to East Lansing the col lege was putting on g a m es for $200. W h en he l e f t, guarantees of $10,000 were common, and un der his direction the college added athletic plant. immensely Macklin to its Death Shocks MSC Campus To Michigan State faculty members, alumni, and students who knew him Macklin's death came as a blow. Said President John A. Hannah, "The death of John Farrell Macklin comes as a shock to all who knew him. It deprives Michigan State of one of its most en thusiastic supporters. "The deep affection in which he was held by the men who played on the foot teams he coached and by those ball closely associated with him during the Michigan State College has been selected from a group of more than 20 colleges and universities to set up a new curriculum designed to train stu dents for executive and managerial posts in the nation's chain stores. A grant of $87,500 from the National Association of Food Chains was an nounced jointly Oct. 11 by Dean Herman J. Wyngarden of the MSC School of Business and Public Service, under whose supervision the program will be con ducted; and John A. Logan, Washing ton, D. C, president of the NAFC. First Program of Its Type Michigan State will receive $17,500 annually for a five-year period, and the program, the first of its type in the nation, is expected to begin Jan. 3, 1950, Dr. Wyngarden said. The agreement will launch a program of undergraduate and graduate studies leading to a master's degree in food distribution. A special director will be named by the college to operate the curriculum within the School of Business and Public Service. Graduate Program To Be Set Up Dr. Wyngarden said the program will utilize certain courses already offered in the business administration depart ment. Others will be expanded and graduate courses will be set up to pro vide advanced work marketing, finance, and accounting. in management, Another phase of the program will provide in-service training for outstand ing employes of chain stores, with a companion fellowship program financed by individual chains to send employes to Michigan State for special training. Approximately 25 scholarships are ex pected to be awarded annually. Engineers Meet at MSC "Reduced production costs" was the theme of Michigan State College's first annual Industrial Engineering Confer ence, held in September. Seventy persons representing 41 com panies in the U. S., Canada and Finland, met with 26 prominent midwestern in dustrial leaders and educators to discuss methods for reducing costs and increas ing production.

It was during his time first talked of seeking entry into the Western Conference." that State Macklin quit his football chores at Michigan State to enter private busi ness in Philadelphia where he served as president of J. H. Weaver and Co., in Worcester, a coal concern. Born Mass., in 1883, Macklin received his un dergraduate schooling at the University of Pennsylvania where he captained the freshman squad and was a star tackle and halfback on the 1907 eleven. Last Campus Visit Came in 1948 His last trip to the campus was in 1948 when he was present for the dedication of the college's new, 51,000 capacity Macklin Field Stadium. President Hannah, Lyman L.

Davidson, '13, named as director. The Fund will be patterned after similar programs now in effect at many of the nation's college's and universities. It will provide supplementary financial support to Michigan State College for scholarships, fellowships, research pro jects, and in other phases of academic development where sufficient funds are not available in the college's budget. To Operate Under Alumni Office The organization, which to be operated under the Office of Alumni Re lations, was effective with Davidson's appointment. is A 1913 graduate of Michigan State, Davidson has been connected with fund development work for a number of years in the American City Bureau of Chicago. While with the Bureau, he handled vari ous college campaigns, the most recent being the Loyola University, Chicago, Fulfillment Fund. Davidson acted as regional fund director for the National Safety Council in 1944. Demands for Service Increase Davidson attributes the national trend for establishing such permanent fund- raising programs at state supported in stitutions to the steadily mounting de services, both on mands campus and throughout the state, and the inability of state legislatures to in crease appropriations accordingly. for college "Indications point to continued de mands in the form of Michigan youth labor, wanting college educations and agricultural, business industrial groups who want special programs of and William L. Davidson continuing education. This fund program is expected to help Michigan State Col lege satisfy as many of these needs as possible." Student Fees Increase Davidson pointed out that although state colleges formerly relied on state appropriations for most of their oper ating cost, the state's portion is becom ing increasingly smaller. He cited the fact that although Michigan State Col lege secured 64 per cent of its operating budget from the state 20 years ago, that figure stands at 53.8 per cent today. Other revenue sources include student fees, which have jumped from 16.9 per cent of the total budget in 1929 to 38.7 per cent today, federal grants, gifts, athletic fees and others. A crowd of more than 45,000 jammed the Michigan State College campus Oct. 21-22 to take part in the college's 33rd annual Homecoming Day festivities. Of this number, over 8,000 were former students and graduates who re turned to renew old friendships, engage in a host of social activities, and witness the MSC-Penn State football clash. Many Alumni Arrive Friday Many alumni were in East Lansing early Friday for registration, banquets and meetings in the new Student Union, East Lansing and Lansing. Others arrived in time to join with some 3,500 ardent students who formed at the bandshell Friday evening to take part in the traditional Homecoming pep rally.

THE A F F A I RS OF S T A TE ENROLLMENT A total of 16,079 students, an all-time record, enrolled in regular classes at Michigan State College for the 1949 fall term. This is 193 higher than the 15,886 last year, the same time recorded at when MSC ranked as the 12th largest educational institution of the nation in full-time enrollment. Another 164 students enrolled Oct. 24 for Michigan State's program of agri cultural short courses, bringing the final fall enrollment of all students to 16,243. Last year's reached 16,010. final enrollment The 16,079 total consists of 11,889 men and 4,190 women. Veterans number 7,192, marking the first time since the war the minority with the beginning of a college year at MSC. that veterans have been in record enrollment New students numbered 4,268, approx imately this the same as 1948, and included 2,703 men and 1,565 women. Of this new student total, only 945 are vet erans and 2,884 are first quarter fresh men, having never attended any college previously. Another was achieved in MSC's ROTC unit, not only in total students enrolled, but also in the number of students seeking reserve and regular commissions in the U. S. Army and Air Force. ROTC enrollment totals 2,942 in comparison with 2,547 recorded last year, according to Capt. John Johns, public information officer. that significant, however, military training is required for the first two years at all land-grant colleges, is the 20 percent rise in number of students seeking regular and reserve commissions in a full four-year program. A total of 635 are enrolled, compared to the previ ous high of 529 reached last year. More in Cemented Relations In spite of a full round of curricular and social activities this fall, students still found time to invent some of their own. High point came during the evenings preceding f o o t b a ll the MSC-U of M game, Sept. 24 when converging forces from both sides infiltrated into enemy territory to paint the opponent's campus red, and maize, and blue, and green, and white.

A dozen or so "anonymous" Spartans were going to build a wall, not just an ordinary wall, but one which, when completed, would cement the hal lowed arch of the University's Engineer ing Quadrangle. They had practiced on their masterpiece so it could be erected in seven minutes flat. This they proved beyond a shadow of a doubt when they constructed their wall in the prescribed time in front of Ann Arbor's city hall for members of the local police force who apprehended them. No, they didn't close the Engineering Quad, they they were nabbed before could get started. Nor did they get off scot free. On social probation for the rest of the term, the junior engineers must rest on a memory that they had executed a prank which made even vet eran Ann Arbor police officers chortle. Gifts and Grants A total of $115,473.07 in gifts and grants has been received for Michigan State College by the State Board of Agriculture, college governing body, during September and October meetings. The largest grant was $87,500 from the National Association of Food Chains, Washington, D. C. (See story on page 2.) Gifts and grants were earmarked for scholarships and specified research pro jects using Michigan State College facilities and personnel. A $5,000 gift from the will of Oscar David Morrill, of Ann Arbor, will be used to set up a loan fund to aid worthy first students. The will specified that consideration be given to Washtenaw county students and students whose pre liminary in rural com munities. training was Harry L. Caulkins, Detroit, gave $5,000 to be used as an aid to worthy agricultural students. Research projects launched with funds granted the college will include studies in the fields of social service, botany, animal nutrition, vitamin chemistry, and elevator and farm supply. Other scholar ship grants were also received. An Apple a Day "Have an apple and vote for Ford" was the gist of a successful campaign that helped make Mark Ford, of Ann Arbor, freshman class president. Ford gave 20 bushels of apples to students while campaigning during the annual frosh elections Oct. 27. Ford, in his first term at MSC, gar nered 447 votes out of the 773 ballots cast to defeat his nearest rival, Jim Furstenberg, of Saginaw. Also elected to serve with him were Don Hosie, South Wales, N. Y., vice- president; Donna McMahon, Lansing, secretary; and Sally Gibson, Ann Arbor, treasurer.

Sumner of Detroit. She was selected by student leaders of MSC's football opponent, Penn State, from a group of 31 original candidates. Miss Sumner, a sophomore, is majoring in education at MSC. Serving as her court of honor were finalists Lorrie Boone, Detroit senior; Charmaine Chinnow, Grand Rapids senior; Beverly Crain, Ferndale sopho more; and Joann Harbaugh, Lansing junior. Fraternity and sorority members com prised an anxious group during the first half of football the MSC-Penn State game.

G. Hays, extension dairyman at MSC, uses the scholarship fund begun by friends as a memorial to his son, James G. Hays, III, who graduated in 1938 and died in November 1941. Young Hays' college activities included president of the Stu dent Council, head cheerleader, founder of the Spartan magazine, membership in Blue Key, Excalibur, Varsity Club, presi dent of the Press Club, and Phi Delta Theta. Following his graduation, he worked ill health forced his in in until 1940 when resignation. He went to California 1941 for the rare, treatments of curable "Hodgkins Disease." Jimmy's passing in 1941 did not end his influence on the campus, however. A memorial scholarship, bearing his name, is now available for needy stu dents regardless of classification. Lecture Proceeds Support Fund Funds for the scholarship have come largely from lecture proceeds deposited by his father. In 1942, Hays started donating returns from his lecture ap pearances to the memorial scholarship fund. Friends, alumni, and campus or ganizations have also aided and the total now stands at approximately $5,000. The Hays "dairy cow" lecture has become a standby with audiences in all parts of the United States. County agri cultural agents or officers of agricultural groups, if asked about the best enter tainment for rural or city gatherings would likely say, "Why, Jim Hays and his cow." In more than 20 years he has delivered his lecture on bovine architecture over 600 times to thousands of people. Bossy isn't the most impressive cow on earth, but she never fails to draw a laugh.

T HE R E C O RD JIM HAYS AND FRIEND Variously listed on the program as "The Wonders of the Dairy Cow," or "Improved Dairy Type," Hays takes the stage with his synthetic cow and begins a serious lecture on dairying. Following a few remarks about the model cow, the audience becomes aware that the model's charm lies not in her milk producing capacity but in her sense of humor. the Hays' lecture continues to be in great demand for banquets and service club meetings. As laughs heartily at the comments on bovine life, they're not only getting enjoyment but are making it possible for some student to go to Michigan State College under the memorial scholarship. audience Birt Darling's New Book Features MSC History In his new book, "The City In The Forest," Birt Darling, well-known Lan sing newspaperman, gives a new and up-to-date version of Michigan State College history. Published by Stratford House, New York, the new volume traces MSC devel opment from earliest beginnings in the middle 1900's to the institution's recent entry into the Big Ten Conference. The book, a history of the city of Lansing, is a joint effort of numerous Lansing librarians, historians and own ers of original source material. Impor tant incidents, anecdotes and graphic profiles of important campus personali ties are all recorded in the book's longest chapter. Most of the historical facts for the MSC section of the book were gathered by Madison Kuhn, college historian. First Insurance Clinics Attract 700 in Michigan Michigan State College's first series of regional insurance clinics proved so successful that a similar program is be ing planned for this winter, according to insurance Carl Strong, coordinator of training at MSC, and director of the program. More than 700 insurance men from all over Michigan attended the clinics held in 11 Michigan cities during the month of October. The series was the first of in Michigan, its kind to be conducted Strong said. Training sessions were devoted to three specific fields of insurance work, including workmen's compensation, busi ness interruption insurance and assigned risk. Thirteen top-flight insurance agents and educators served as faculty for the clinics which were held in Marquette, Traverse City, Alpena, Saginaw, Flint, Detroit, Ann Arbor, Jackson, St. Joseph, Grand Rapids and Lansing. Organizations cooperating in this new venture were the Michigan Association of Insurance Agents; local insurance or ganizations; Michigan Department of In surance; Michigan Department of Pub lic Instruction; Northern Michigan Col lege of Education, Wayne University and the University of Michigan.

Dr. Hannah, president of the association for the past year, will serve as chairman of the executive committee for the coming year. Students' Fees On Increase The crisis, he said, was dwindling state support, which was transferring the financial burden of college educations to the individual college student. "The states contributed 42.5 percent of the total income for land-grant uni versities in 1945-46, but only 40.3 per cent last year. Meanwhile, the percent age of contribution from student fees in creased from 12.3 percent in 1945-46 to 30.4 percent last year," Dr. Hannah said. He added that in 20 years, state sup port of Michigan's colleges had dropped 35 percent while the national decrease was only 14 percent. To arrest this crisis, Dr. Hannah called for stricter economy measures and strong spokesmen who will sell public- education to the "far corners of the nation."

A two-week moose-hunting expedition to Isle Royale national park, located in the northwest corner of Lake Superior, was completed by members of the Michi gan State College museum staff in early October. Under the direction of Prof. Joseph W. the expedition Stack, museum head, bagged four moose for a museum habitat group. Actual construction of the ex hibit will be done at the college, although much research in botanical life, life-size measurements of the animals and back ground was done on Isle Royale. Moose at Numerical Peak While on the trip, Prof. Stack came up with some interesting observations con cerning the moose situation in Michigan. He believes that Isle Royale moose have reached their numerical peak, estimating that "800 or less" inhabit the island. Prof. Stack arrived at this figure through talks with Isle Royale natives and from data compiled from an airplane count made by the Fish and Wildlife Service. Prof. Stack said that evidence of over- browsing the huge animals may have become too numerous for the available food supply. indicates Will Make Habitat Group The director and his staff will attempt to reproduce a realistic exhibit showing the modeled animals in their natural Isle Royale surroundings—"a job which may take three years." information To get authentic for details of the museum display, the hunt included Mary Catherine ing party Ellsworth, museum botanist and tech John W.

Lose to Notre Dame 34-21 Then came the Notre Dame game, which saw the Spartans battle the Irish on almost even terms for the first half, which ended with Notre Dame leading 14-7. The Spartan regulars sagged in the last half as the South Benders tallied three times before MSC made a deter mined bid. the waning minutes, Quarterback Gene Glick, passing to Ends Bob Carey and Dome Dibble, tallied twice on beautiful pass plays to the rous ing applause of 51,000 spectators at Macklin Field. In Superlative play by a group of backs headed by Lynn Chandnois, one of the Midwest's leading AU-American candi dates, outstanding defensive and offensive work of another great line, spearheaded by guards Ed Bagdon and Don Mason, provided the keys to Michigan State's outstanding record. Chandnois Is Standout In stopping the Homecoming game against Penn State, Chandnois was a brilliant star in making a 60-yard touchdown run, personally two Penn State scores with timely tackles and pass in terceptions, and led all ground gainers with 107 yards on 16 tries. His play against Temple, when he scored two touchdowns and gained 149 yards on 13 tries, was rewarded with the United Press award as the Midwest's "player the week." Against Notre Dame, of "Chad" was held to 3.8 yards per try, but intercepted one Notre Dame pass and got off the longest run of the game, 83 yards, after taking a pass from Glick. Several sophomore stars had risen to take places with MSC's stars. Chief among these were big Bob Carey, called by newsmen "one of the best pass-catch ing ends ever to play for the Spartans"; Al Dorow, who filled in superbly after injuries to Glick and Bob Ciolek; and tackle Don Coleman, who has received national acclaim for consistent and bruis ing play. 8 . . . . T HE R E C O RD Vogler is still the captain, and more than in name only. He attends every practice session, frequently in uniform, attends to the coin-tossing duties at mid- field before each game, and acts as spir itual leader for his men from the bench and up and down the sidelines. The first greeting a Spartan gets coming out of the game is a hearty hand clasp from this great captain and a pat on the back; the last before he goes into the game is a word of encouragement and another slap on the back. Don Mason and Ed Bagdon, senior stalwarts at the guard positions, are field captains for the season.
