A U N I Q UE PLAN IN SENDING OUT " B I D S" to literary societies, one designed the women's to minimize the heart rendings of freshmen girls who are prospective pledges, was put into effect this fall with much success. The names of all girls who were to be bid were sent by each society to Mr. Carl H. Reynolds, lawyer. From his a disinterested Lansing office there was then sent to each girl, on the lists, a preference slip, on which she* stated her choiice of the societies she wished to join if she was asked. These preference slips were then matched up with the names desired by the societies and the results communicated to them after which bids were sent the new girls ac cording to their choice. So successful was the plan as carried out this year, that it will un doubtedly be adopted as a permanent arrange ment. 6 THE M. A. C.

At the annual gathering of alumni at Commencement-the weather is usually warm and pleasant and meeting and visit ing and talking can be done out of doors anywhere. But at Homecoming it's different. As the crowd gathers in Novem ber a warm place under a roof and with a glowing fire in sight is most conducive to a flow of good spirits while shaking hands and extending greetings to the old college friends again. Picture if you can what the Union Memor ial Building would have meant to the campus and to alumni Saturday. First of all it would have been a center, a headquarters where re turning graduates and former students would have found the hospitality of the campus ex tended to them. It would have been a general gathering place where everyi ne would have gone first to leave their wraps or their bags or to have reserved a room or their seats for the game, and where they would have found John Jones and Bill Smith and all the old bunch. It would have been the one spot where they would have expected to find every other one of their old college mates sooner or later. As it was Saturday, the crowd was scattered here and there over the community and many of the old friends entirely missed each other. With a Union Building, a returning alumnus steps into the center of college life. He isn't buffetted to the outer edges as happened Saturday. immediately The need of a dining room where a lunch eon or a banquet can be prepared and served for numbers up to doo or 700 was never so well demonstrated, regret it as we may. With Clubs A and C closed against any affairs ex cept their own regular "mealers" it is almost impossible to arrange a banquet for any num ber over xoo in the whole college community. Caterers won't the job and we don't them. The Union Building will be blame take planned and equipped for just such banquets as this, and will serve not only alumni but times a the whole college family dozens of year. M. A. C. alumni must own their own home and that, soon. "ALL HERE" Another Homecoming celebration is history. As the refrain of the old song rang through the air Saturday it surely did seem as though the "gang was all here." This year's annual football celebra tion of alumni was by far the .larg est ever held and the best .attended. From a casual glance over the stands during the game the hundreds of familiar faces made all the estimates of alumni and former students at tending the game seem conservative. Never before have the campus divisions of the M. A. C. family been so enthused and ener getic over a Homecoming spree. Student com mittees began early and worked late planning and preparing for the entertainment of alumni. Everywhere there was a desire to make some thing more of .Homecoming than had been made of it in the past. Practically every campus organizatu n had a part in the preparation. this year In view of the fraternity agitation many of the societies seized upon Homecoming as an opportunity for discussion and consideration of the long talked of fraternity matter. There was a larger return of the older "brothers and sisters" to the societies there has even' been before. than This is the first time that the barbecue has been included as a part of the Homecoming- It was entirely new to many who festivities. had never before witnessed the celebration in which the sophomcres bid the freshmen wel- com to the campus home and take them in as a part of the family. It is Imped that it may- continue as a regular feature of the Home coming program in years to come. Those who missed H: mecoming this year missed something good and all we may add is, resolve now not to be a "misser" next year.

By a recent arrangement of the department of physical training co-eds are to be given points for their work in athletics and have a chance of winning honors just as a football, basketball or track man wins his monogrammed sweater. There are seven distinct sports in which a girl will have a chance to participate. They are swimming, hockey, soccer, baseball, basket- ball, rifle marksmanship and tennis. A definite number of points are awarded to each girl who participates in some of these sports and if she makes a class or winning team she gains an extra number.

Fumbles, most of them resulting from er ratic passes from center, and faHure to make in the way of offense use of were responsible to run up a larger score against South Dakota. The throng who witnessed the Homecoming game approximated seven thousand, probably the greatest number on the East Lansing field in six years. The Green machine was pitted against a team which it could outplay by five touchdown victory touchdowns, hut two was keenly appreciated by a majority of the alumni who had returned for the-occasion. for M. A. C.'s failure its Brady, calling signals until the middle of the fourth quarter, when he was injured, failed to take advantage of the Aggie ability to sift through the Dakota defense on off-tackle and through guard plays during "the fore part of the game. At the same time he played such an aggressive game on. his own part, that his mistakes in directing the attack* can be easily overlooked. Saturday's game proved once more than the tales of the Aggie defensive strength consti tute no myth. Only twice during the game did the Dakotans make their distance, once when Collins broke through the line for a 15-yard journey, and again when the first forward pass attempted by the Scarlet, was completed. ()n this last occasion, South Dakota held the ball in Michigan Aggie territory, it being the only time in the game that it accomplished the feat. Time after time, the Vermillion eleven tried to repeat-the successful pass, but Barron's men in the valuable art had been of breaking up aerial plays. the Just before the game.
