Fuller has been engaged all the spring during his spare time in building a canoe which he finished Saturday morning and he and Guy H. Smith, a freshman engineering student from Detroit, took it to the river about 10 :30 to try it out. a As sight Smith's they drifted down thev stream Smith suggested that take a swim, to which Fuller consented, stating at the time, however, that he was not a strong swimmer but they could keep on top. W h en reached they spot secluded dragged the canoe ashore and pre pared to go in, Smith getting in the first. Fuller went about 100 water further down stream before ' feet taking to the water and was hidden from bv brush. Smith heard him take the plunge and shortly after asked him if he was having a good time and, re ceiving no answer, suspected some thing wrong, swam to shore and ran down to the place where Fuller went in, reaching there just in time to see him disappearing below the water, which, because of the recent rains was too muddy to admit seeing into it but a few inches. Frantic to the with place where he saw him go down and endeavored to locate him, but the water was muddy and he failed to find him. He then ran for the canoe, hoping that it would be of assistance, but he soon saw that his efforts alone would prove fruitless and ran for assistance fright Smith swam swift, deep and~~ In a short time men with ropes, boats and grapples were on the scene, but the body was not found until 1 : jo p. m., after it had been in the water 2 r^ hours. An attempt was made by D r. Breugel to resus citate the body but in vain. A jury impanneled by Justice J. H. Cowley, after viewing the remains returned the verdict of accidental drowning. T he body was removed to Buck's undertaking rooms, and on the re quest of the parents was forwarded to their home at the Canadian Sioux Monday morning, accompanied by floral tributes from the college and the Sophomore class. Guy Alexander Fuller was born at Woodville, Wisconsin, in Octo ber, 1883, and afterward removed with his parents to Michigan and graduated from the Ironwood H i gh School in 1903. In the fall of 1906 he entered the agricultural course at (Continued on page 2.) in debate About 150 Ypsilantians accom panied their debating, baseball and tennis teams to witness the annual contest Saturday and though over flowing with college spirit and en thusiasm lost in every contest and carried back to their anxious friends little but the satisfaction of an heroic In baseball and tennis the effort.

A. C. showed great improvement over that displayed in the other home games of the sea son, nine hits being chalked down, two of which were for two bases by Ellis and Crissev and a three- bagger by Harrison. Harrison of Ypsilanti also secured a hit for two bases and H y n es one for three bases. V a u g hn pitched gilt edged ball, striking out six men and keeping the hits well scattered.

(A Paper Read at the Open Meeting of the Honorary Fraternity, Tau Beta Pi, May 21, 1908.) T he successful etigineer is a good machine. H is mental make-up is in such nice adjustment, and in such complete harmony with his physical equipment, that under the most ad verse conditions he is able to pro duce an indicator card which will show-a creditable record of perform ance. Apart from his moral or aesthetic nature he has a brain trained to think logically, accurately, and quickly, without noise or jar, vibration or lost motion; and quite often the mental machine which shows the highest efficiency is the one whose apparent work, like that of the nicely adjusted engine, is least noticeable. control. But man is more than a simple machine. He is a complex mechan ism of automatic T he cross-head of an engine must keep to its ways, and the crank-shaft must continue to rotate- in its bear ings : while the mind of man, prone though it is to follow a certain worn path Or groove is susceptible to con trol and direction. The purpose and scope of this paper shall be to enumerate, as we see them, some of the things which are useful in the direction of mental energy and which increase or decrease the effi ciency of that figurative machine— the mind. This is in accord with the'objects of Tau Beta Pi —to ele vate the standard of engineering and scientific education, both in the curriculae of the colleges and in the life of the student bodv. T he asser tions we make are not all the grist of experience, but are gleaned from our observation of associates and friends some of whom succeed be cause they possess desirable attri b u t e s; others who fail because they lack them.

Mr. S. T.

M r. Schroetter has been very successful as Director of the Music Department of Virginia Institute, a large Baptist School for V01111; Ladies in Bristol, Virginia, for the past two years. .Since M r. Schroetter makes iiis home with his aunt, Mrs. Frevhofer, in Eansing, and is coming to Lan sing to spend part of his vacation, it is possible to secure his services at this time.

C. on Wednesday and Thursday afternoons in t wo games which were remarkable for erratic playing. Both teams were handicapped in not having been able to get in much practice on account of wet weather. T he Chicago team was in somewhat worse shape in this respect than M. A. C, for through . necessity they had been forced to call off fi ^ s c h e d u l ed games. Both the games were won quite easily by the local team and should have been of even higher score had not errors figured prominently. A noticeable increase in hits showed that M. A. C. was doing better work in this department, but several ragged errors and careless base running did not look so well for the fielding. Vaughn and Peterson both pitched steady games and only allowed a few scattering hits. T he last game was a good one to watch and the general verdict was that the home team were playing better ball than they have done" in the last year.

ENGINEERING NEWS. Last Tuesday evening M r. F. F. R o g e r s, C. E.,deputy highyvav com missioner gave one of the most in teresting talks before the Engineer ing Society- this term. T he subject, " R o ad W ay E n g i n e e r i n g" was .treated by the speaker in an excel lent manner. T he fact that 70,000 miles of public roads are under the supervision of the highway com missioner goes to show the responsi bility of the department. A great deal of the work is to improve old- roads, that is, make surveys for re constructing- the old roads. W h en the land surveyor employed by the state goes to lay out a line, the first thing that confronts him is the lack of experienced help. F a rm helpers are only available, and from these inexperienced men he must pick an efficient group of helpers yyho must be trained in short time to be accur ate and reliable. One difficult feat of roadway sur veying is to determine the location of corners. A good surveyor yy ill never reestablish a monument until he is absolutely certain that the old monument is lost. A bill yvas recently passed by the legislature whereby the money col lected as road tax cannot be ex pended until surveys are-made, and complete specifications are handed to the toyvn-clerk of toyvn. Also the law provides that all county surveyors -hall be under the super vision of the highyvav commissioner. T h us in this yvay, the poyver for ex penditure of money for roadways is systematized, and also the work can he traced. said T he society regrets to say, that the engineering students -shoyv lack of interest for these lectures. No doubt the warm weather is effective in reducing the attendance, still the students should endeavor to be pres ent, when so rare an opportunity is offered to listen to men of authority. T he society urges all to be present this evening. M r. M. C. Taft, C. E., of Kalamazoo, will give a talk on " City E n g i n e e r i n g ." T he M. A. C. RECORD.
