NO. 29 FACULTY PASSES NEW ATHLETIC RULES —ALUMNI GIVEN REPRE SENTATION ON BOARD OF CONTROL. According to the new rules adopted by the Faculty in last week's meeting, full control of all questions pertaining to athletics is to be vested in a board of control. The personnel of this board is as follows: (1) The Director of Athletics; (2) two faculty mem bers appointed by the President of the College; (3) two alumni appointed by the President of the College and the Director of Athletics; (4) four undergradu ate members, one the president of the Student Coun cil, one the football captain, one sophomore and one junior; the Secretary of the College (without vote); (7) the As sistant Director of Athletics. the President of the College; (5) (6) These new rules are the result of investigation of rules used at other institutions, from which careful selections have been made and compiled into a code that is expected to work at M. A. C. They form a definite outline of procedure and is believed will have a wholesome effect on athletics at M. A. C. One of the most important rules of elegibility is the ad option of the three-year rule, according to the fol lowing language: "After January 1, 1916, no student shall participate in intercollegiate athletics until he shall have been in attendance in the college for one full collegiate year." This rule will prohibit the playing of freshmen and is supplemented by another which says no student shall participate in intercol legiate athletics for more than three years in the aggregate. The three-year rule has been advocated by many interested in athletics at M. A. C. for the past two It has been argued by some that it or three years. would enable us to schedule games with a better class of colleges, since it would place us on a par with Conference rules. In part, the adoption of this rule has been necessary because of the tendency which seems to be evident among some press correspond ence not to give M. A. C. full credit for the big vic tories of the past few years on account of her "lack of elegibility rules." Whatever the criticism on this score it will surely be stopped now. This rule will necessitate the development of "All-Fresh" teams in the various sports, will require another class of game schedules, and will, in the end, we believe, de velop a strong class of candidates for the varsity positions the second year. While it may work some harm the first year it will ultimately prove a booster for M. A. C.'s athletics, and is a big step in the right direction. Another rule which will do away with the Downey training quarters at Pine Lake for the football team in the fall says, "That all training of the football team before college opens in the fall shall be carried on at the College and be paid for by the Athletic Asso ciation." While it is not possible to print here the new rules in detail (these will be printed in book form in the near future) the following are some of the essentials: Regular meetings of the board of control shall be held once a month. Chairman of this board shall be elected from the Faculty members, Secretary shall be Director of Athletics, Treasurer shall be the Sec retary of the College, and shall receive and disburse all funds and tickets of the board, Assistant Treas urer shall be elected by the board from the under graduate members. It is the duty of the latter to be custodian of all tickets and gate receipts, and he shall furnish a bond to be paid for from the funds of the Athletic Association. The Athletic Association shall include all men and women who have paid the regular athletic fee pro vided for by the resolution of the State Board of Agriculture. The president of the Student Council shall be president of the Athletic Association. FINANCIAL SUPPORT NEEDED. Editor of the RECORD: I am interested in your campaign for the develop ment of public speaking at the College, and heartily concur in all that has been said concerning it. The individual who can stand on his feet before an audi ence and in clear, concise English tell what he knows is of great service to the community in which he lives. Debating clubs are all right—they do and should act as an inspiration to better effort all along the line, but should not take the place of a thorough drill ex tended to every student. The English department should be one of the big departments of the College and the public speaking branch the most important. In fact, no instructor has any business in such an institution if he hasn't the ability to state clearly and concisely what he has to say either to the stu dents or before public gatherings. A much merited criticism was made very recently by a man high up in the affairs of the State, upon the inability of many of the learned men of our edu cational institutions to come before an audience and express their thoughts with an easy flow of English. A description by a retired farmer of an introduction given a public speaker of State and national fame, at the hands of a supposedly highly educated mem ber of a college faculty, was sufficient to jar the finer sensibilities of the most untutored. In the earlier history of the college the literary societies exerted a great influence in this direction, but this in the present day has given place to social functions. We congratulate the RECORD on its efforts in this direction and hope every one interested in M. A. C. will support this movement. LEWIS B. HALL, '82.

Nearly everyone who reaches M. A. C. in time for the program Tues day m u st leave home some time Monday, and since t he first of the week is broken up anyway, we be lieve t h at this will be a popular change.

A STEP IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION. The rules which govern the Board of Control of athletics at M. A. C, recently adopted, are a step in the right direction, in t h at they provide for the representation on this board of the graduates of M. A. C. Two alumni members are to be appointed and while their duties will not be particularly onerous or their responsibilities great, the mere fact of t h e ir being allowed to assist in the direction of this one branch of college activities seems to us to portend much for the future relations of the alumni body to our Alma Mater. We believe t h at a greater interest should be t a k en in M. A. C. by her alumni, and we also believe that one way in which this can be en couraged is to give them something to do, and to give the opinion of the alumni some weight when policies of at least some of the activities of the College are considered. The fact t h at this recognition came un solicited from the alumni body is also worthy of con sideration. COMMENCEMENT REUNION, * * * PLANS—TWO DAYS' time. Since At a recent meeting of the local alumni tentative plans were drawn up for the Reunion at Commence ment these plans have been ap proved by the Faculty Committee on Commencement, and President Haigh, of the M.

A. Sias, college barber at M. A. C. for the past nine years. S t u d e n ts in attendance at M. A. C. dur ing this time would undoubtedly vote "Andy," as he was known to students and faculty alike, one of the most popular a nd thoroughly sincere m en they came in contact with. His death casts a general depres sion over the present student body as well. Mr. Sias was attacked last J a n u a ry with t h r o at trouble, a nd while not considered serious at the time, his condi tion rapidly grew worse and the end came last Fri day. Up until a year ago "Andy" held shop in t he gym nasium building, but at the room occu t h at pied was needed so t he shop h ad to be moved. Since last September the shop has been situated in the base m e nt of the College drug and grocery store. time The funeral was held Sunday afternoon from the home in E a st Lansing, employes of the shop acting as pallbearers. These lines were hurriedly w r i t t en for the RECORD. Springs on the wing—the sun is on high, The buds and the birds push up to the sky, Even as Andy m u st say his goodbye. Tho our Campus is crowded with blossom a nd bloom, There's deep in our h e a r ts the feeling of gloom, F or Andy has woven the last length of his loom. In him there lived such enviable blend, T h at all who knew him called him friend. Can this then be the end? Ah, Andy, no. We may not h e ar your voice again, F u t u re students may never know your name, Yet you have earned u n d y i ng fame. F or you held back the tears from m a ny an eye; Your smile has oft replaced the sigh; Your spirit lives for aye and aye. Old grads will oft r e t u rn to this dear place, And they will miss your hand—your smiling face, For you have r un your earthly race. But in our lives the song of your life will ever be new, You sang the message of cheer as it's sung by so few. And Andy, we never, never can forget you. You did your work and you did it well, And you sang your song before you fell, F a re you well, Andy, F a re you well! E. C. L. '11.
