It  certainly  is  invigorating 

the 
others.  Especially 

to  view 
in  its  recent 
the  work  of  the  faculty, 
the  way  of  adding  new 
meeting, 
and 
curriculum 
courses 
is 
strengthening 
this  so  at  t h is  time  w h en  there  might 
to  hold  back  and  see 
be  a  tendency 
what  is  going  to  happen. 
It  shows  a 
conviction  on  the  p a rt  of  the  officers 
of  the  college  t h at  there  is  a  definite 
place  M,  A.  C.  should  strive  to  fill  in 
the 
the  educational  opportunities  of

to  be  back  of  the  convictions  to  such

We  as  alumni  are  intensely  interest

and,  from  some  r a t h er  uncomplimen 
tary  r e m a r ks  which  have  recently  ap 
peared 
the 
state,  it  looks  as  if  we  ought  to  be  on 
our  guard.  We  are  glad  to  see  these 
new  options  in  chemical  engineering. 
Thev  will  cost  the  state  comparatively 
little 
,and  with  M.  A.  C.'s  present 
chemical  equipment  she  will  be  able 
to  t u rn  out  graduates  who  are  in  much 
better  position 
to  assist  in  handling 
the  chemical  problem  of  our  country, 
which  will  continue  to  be  a  vital  one. 
The  course  in  accounting  for  the  agri 
cultural  students  will  meet  with  a 
the  agricultural 
ready  approval  from 
graduates  who  have  gone  out  in 
the 
long  appreciated 
past,  and  who  have 
the  need  of  direction  in  this  line.

t he  state  honors 

The  Detroit  Y.  M.  C.  A.  forced  M. 
in 
A.  C.  to  divide 
this  season  when  the  "Y" 
basketball 
quintet 
secured  a  35-14  victory  over 
the  Aggie  five  in  Detroit  last  Tuesday. 
M.  A.  C.  won  from 
the  "Y"  at  E a st 
L a n s i ng  earlier  in  the  season  so  t h at 
now  the  score  is  evened  up. 

The  game  from  M.  A.  C.'s  standpoint 
was  decidedly  below  par,  F r i m o d ig 
and  Hood  being  the  only  ones  who 
looked  good  at  all.  Ricker  and  Rigby 
were  decidedly  off  color.  Sheffield  sub 
stituted  for  Rigby  and  showed  up  con 
siderably  better.  McClellan  was  taken 
out  because  of  fouls  in  the  last  half, 
his  place  being  very  ably 
filled  by 
Karl  Miller. 

t he  game 

until  near 

in  the 
M.  A.  C.  started 
lead,  and  continued 
t he 
' end  of  the  first  half.  Then  Ely,  Sut 
ton,  Bush  and  Vinton  disturbed 
the 
situation  to  such  an  extent  t h at  at  t he 
end  of  the  first  half  the  score  stood  19 
to  10  in  Detroit's  favor. 

D u r i ng 

t he  second  half  F r i m o d ig 
secured  a  basket  at  t he  opening,  but 
another  at  the  close,  by  Ricker,  ended 
the  scoring.  Ely  for  Detroit  secured 
five  baskets  in  this  half.
